00:00Is it Jordan Love for Green Bay at Cleveland, or is it Jared Goff for Detroit at Baltimore, Joe?
00:07Yeah, these are two guys I think your streaming quarterback are trying to figure it out here.
00:10And where I'm struggling with Jordan Love is just the weapons at this point, right?
00:15We're down to Matthew Golden, who I really like, but he's still a rookie.
00:19You know, we've got some secondary guys, Romeo Dobbs, right?
00:25Jordan Love still feels like barely the guy that I want to start here.
00:28But I understand the Jared Goff scenario.
00:33If Jared Goff was playing at home, this would be a smash for Jared Goff.
00:36But he's not playing on the road against the Ravens.
00:39So I am a little bit concerned.
00:40I will go with Jordan Love here by just a hair and hope that he can move this offense properly.
00:47I just the faith I have in Jared Goff going on the road is just tough.
00:51And it's, you know, prime time games.
00:52It's just I don't know.
00:53It just feels like a bad scenario in Detroit.
00:56Totally different scenario.
00:57But once we get out there on the road, and I think the Ravens kind of smell blood here
01:01a little bit, too.
01:02I don't think this Detroit Lions team is as strong as it was in previous years.
01:06When you lose those coordinators, I think it has a really negative impact.
01:09So to me, I'm going to go with Jordan Love because I think when chips are down here,
01:13Jordan Love is going to just throw the open guy.
01:16If Tucker Kraft was out for this game, too, that would have been the breaking point for me.
01:20But he's going to play.
01:21So I think as long as you got Golden, as long as you got Kraft and Dobbs, I think he can do
01:24enough here in this game to just edge out Goff for me.
01:27But it's very close.
01:29All right.
01:30It wouldn't be an FST if we didn't have a tight end start sick question.
01:33We go out to Columbia, Missouri, and Ryan is pulling his hair out.
01:37If you have hair, Ryan, I don't know.
01:39I assume you do.
01:40Harold Fannin Jr., Cleveland versus Green Bay, or David Njoku, Cleveland versus Green Bay.
01:45What to do?
01:45Well, these guys are also back-to-back in Fantasy Pro's consensus rankings this week.
01:51And I can't tell you how many of these questions I've taken, right?
01:53Because most people who had Njoku picked up Fannin because they were worried.
01:57But a lot of people didn't drop Njoku for Fannin necessarily.
01:59So they just kind of were waiting to see how it shook out.
02:02I would just go with the younger guy and Fannin for now.
02:04I just feel like that's the direction we're going.
02:07And the way the tight end position is going, I wouldn't be shocked if a team came knocking
02:11at the door here and gave a seventh round pick for David Njoku.
02:14I think a lot of teams could use a David Njoku-type tight end as the season drags on.
02:19So keep that in mind.
02:20I can see the Browns making a move here.
02:22It would be very smart.
02:23The Browns are going nowhere.
02:24Let's take a look at some of these teams.
02:26Like, if George Kittle has an extended absence, maybe the 49ers should come knock on the door
02:30for David Njoku, just saying.
02:32Like, there's a lot of teams, I think, out there that could benefit from Njoku's presence.
02:36He's a talented guy.
02:37He's, you know, never really been fully unlocked except by Joe Flacco a couple years ago.
02:41But it seems like Fannin is really becoming the guy that they want to build around in
02:46the future.
02:46I think for the Browns, Judkins, Fannin, Tillman, it's all about looking to the future.
02:51And I think you have to start now.
02:53The future is now for the Browns.
02:55All right.
02:55Let's show some West Coast love and head out to San Francisco, California, where Jackson
02:59has a question.
03:01Alec Ayo Manor for Tennessee against Indianapolis.
03:04Or Matthew Golden, Green Bay at Cleveland.
03:06Great question, Jackson.
03:08Joe, what says you?
03:09Jackson's up early on the West Coast.
03:12Can we just shout out Jackson there for a second?
03:14That's early.
03:15All right.
03:15So here's one of my favorite things, right?
03:17We're talking about flex spots.
03:18Alec Ayo Manor.
03:19See, Jackson, listen.
03:20Jackson's smart.
03:21Jackson went up there.
03:22He went to the hill, the bucket, and came down with Alec Ayo Manor off the waiver wire a
03:27couple weeks ago.
03:28And then Matthew Golden, again, the opportunity is there, but we haven't seen the connectivity
03:32yet.
03:33So despite the fact that I think Golden in a deeper league is startable this week for
03:38sure, I think you go with Ayo Manor.
03:40I think you like where things are going with him.
03:43I think that the trend line is better for Ayo Manor in this scenario.
03:46So just to, you know, kind of put a button on this here.
03:50Ayo Manor to start the year has really started to, look, he looked at the preseason, and I
03:57think that's always important.
03:58Last week, he had four receptions for 56 yards and a touchdown on six targets.
04:03That was good enough for wide receiver 22.
04:05Now, Matthew Golden hasn't put up anything close to that yet.
04:08I'm not saying Ayo Manor is going to repeat a wide receiver two scenario today, but could
04:13he finish three?
04:14I think he can.
04:15I think I feel better about that than I do necessarily about Matthew Golden's opportunity
04:19to repeat that kind of number.
04:21So that's very important.
04:22Also important, other players that are floating around the waiver wire that you might be able
04:26to pick up every single Sunday, we take a look at those players.
04:29And usually on Sundays, you could just add them to your roster for nothing.
04:32And sometimes it's about looking ahead as well to the trends and getting ahead of them
04:37so that on Tuesday and Wednesday, you don't spend all your money.
