00:00now let's get to a player who was taken in the first round of every fantasy football draft and

00:05thus far it's produced the least points george i mean i thought you'd just take a rookie running

00:11back in the first round and you get yourself 1500 yards and 10 touchdowns but uh boise state's

00:17ashton jenty for the las vegas raiders we got out of excuses right like at this point it's all

00:24they gotta give him the ball more they gotta do this they gotta do that i mean george does this

00:29guy look like barry sanders like that was the comparisons like i don't know i haven't seen any

00:36of that yet our panicometer all right doesn't go high enough here all right because this is yeah i

00:43mean come on we're freaking out here uh it's not it's i don't think it's all jenty by the way he

00:48has more yards after contact than before contact that pretty much lets you know what the problem is

00:54there all right the raiders needed a running back short but they need an offensive line all right

00:58they need a couple of offensive linemen it's not something you can fix in one off season here so

01:01yeah we're gonna we're gonna eat it with jenty he's not gonna be uh worth the first round pick

01:05in fantasy it's just not not this year man future years we'll see here but not this year

01:10the offense line is not very good the defense is not very good so they have to throw the ball more

01:14in the second mix they're trailing every game so that's hurting us as well here so uh yeah like

01:18said the panicometer it doesn't go high enough for this okay i am i am more than concerned i am not

01:24calm uh i am critical i am like i am flipping out because i have middle league i'm i'm actually

01:28undefeated in that league but i'm like i'm not getting anything from him do i mention for deandre

01:32swift that's what's coming down to this week maybe yeah i'm definitely worried here so in watching

01:38jenty as much as i did in college maybe some of you didn't watch him in college but this is kind of

01:42how it went one carry three yards one carry four yards one carry six yards one carry 72 yards george

01:52touchdown ashton jenty heisman trophy like that that's what i'm waiting for here like isn't there

01:58gonna be a time where he just breaks it free george like what you said is not false but i but i think

02:04there's a point being missed here why has he not broken free one time the whole season not once

02:10to just run away like he's devin singletary right now no offense to devin singletary but that's who

02:16he is nothing and i love jenty there it's fair george and i see it the same on sam laporta of

02:25detroit we don't have to spend too much time here we both feel like this is gonna work out in the

02:30long term it's tight end uh you know unless you're one of the top ones you're okay here the line is

02:36scoring a thousand points a game sooner or later it will be laporta time so yeah i'm calm with

02:40laporta what are you gonna do you're gonna drop him there's no tight end out there in your league

02:43to go get here i guess maybe hunter henry but i wouldn't be dropping him for anybody no

02:47laporta will be fine i'm calm with him
