00:00Buy or sell here, George, good one.

00:02Cam Ward will win Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2025.

00:08Remember, as good as Cam Ward is, there was some discussion that, hey,

00:12maybe some other rookie's better than him in the draft at the top 10, top 15.

00:17It's just that, of course, best quarterback usually wins and goes number one.

00:20You've got to buy or sell Cam Ward winning Offensive Rookie of the Year.

00:24Well, Corey, you mentioned that.

00:26Quarterback has the advantage.

00:27He's going to touch the ball every play, right?

00:30He is probably the best rookie quarterback coming in, so he has that advantage here.

00:36When we phrase it like this, by the way, and this has nothing to do with Cam Ward,

00:39I'm always going to take the field.

00:41You know, Cam Ward or everybody else, well, I'll take a chance at somebody else.

00:43So I'm going to say no on Cam Ward that he won't win it.

00:47I don't think he'll be another quarterback if I'm going to go with somebody.

00:50Maybe it'll be Ashton Gentry, who I know didn't have the greatest debut for the Raiders last night,

00:54but, hey, who cares?

00:55I'm preseason one.

00:57Something we didn't talk about.

00:58It could be O'Mearian Hampton running back from the Chargers, who I was very high on,

01:02but now they lost their best offensive lineman, his rush on Slater, tore the Patella Tenton.

01:07He's done for the year.

01:08Brutal loss.

01:09Just a brutal loss.

01:10That could certainly affect Hampton there and Herbert and the rest of them, by the way, as well here.

01:15But I'm going to say no.

01:16I'm going to sell this.

01:17I will take the field here.

01:19Like I said, Hunter is going to be big in this as well.

01:21We're going to talk about him during this segment as well.

01:23If he has a good receiving year, he's going to get a lot of publicity there.

01:27Yeah, normally I think, George, you're spot on with taking the field, but I think in this case, it's not the thing to do,

01:35because the guy was the number one overall pick starting from day one, and he is a quarterback in the National Football League.

01:40And as much as I love Argenti, and I do love McMillan as well, I mean, there's going to be a lot of other options out there.

01:46I am going to buy this.

01:47I do think that Ward, as the season goes on, I kind of feel like Ward's season this year is going to be like Bo Nix's season last year.

01:56I think it's going to be shaky to start.

01:59The Broncos showed a lot of faith in him.

02:00They kept giving him the ball.

02:02The only difference is Cam Ward doesn't run a ton, so maybe not quite the Nix rushing season.

02:08But I do think at the end of the year, this is one of those rare times where I don't want the field.

02:12I want Cam Ward, number one overall pick in the draft, so I will buy.

02:16All right, let's go to running back.

02:17Remember, George, just a few years ago, Jonathan Taylor was the number one overall player taken in fantasy football.

02:23And now it's just a matter of where you take him as far as the other running backs are concerned,

02:28certainly not number one or number two.

02:29But will Jonathan Taylor finish the season as a top 10 guy?

02:33Here you go.

02:34Jonathan Taylor will finish the season as a top, we'll even narrow it for you, George, seven fantasy running back.

02:42Top seven fantasy running back by yourself.

02:46Well, for the Colts' sake, he better.

02:48Because if he doesn't, I mean, the season didn't go well at all.

02:50You and I already have major question marks about their quarterback situation.

02:53We don't love the wide receivers.

02:55We do love Warren.

02:56But they need Taylor.

02:57They need him to get a lot of second and fours, right, make it easy on the quarterbacks there.

03:02But I'm a Taylor believer.

03:04I am.

03:04But I said it earlier, and I truly believe this.

03:06He's going to face a lot of eight-man boxers.

03:08Because if I'm a defensive coordinator, he's not beating me.

03:11You know, hey, Jones can beat me.

03:12Richardson can beat me.

03:13Fine.

03:13But I am not letting the obvious choice to beat me.

03:15I'm taking Taylor away here.

03:17That being said, I have number eight on my board right now.

03:21He stays healthy.

03:21He'll be top seven because the top eight aren't going to stay healthy, right?

03:24But I have Robinson, Gibbs, Barkley, Gentty, McCaffrey ahead of him as well.

03:29I sort of have him in there.

03:30Derrick Henry, I have him also ahead.

03:31Fantasy-wise, a lot of touchdowns come in there.

03:33So I have him right after that, you know, with a chain there.

03:36Maybe I'm going to put Bucky Irving, guys like that here.

03:39But I'm going to buy this.

03:40I'm going to say yes, if he can stay healthy.

03:42But then again, I can say that for every running back I just named.

03:45If they stay healthy, they'll be top seven.

03:47So I'm going to say yes, if he can stay healthy.
