00:00who's the first buy low candidate well i can't believe it but people are losing their mind and

00:04they're trading bijon robinson and i i just i can't understand it i look i get it last week

00:11was super disappointing i i know it should have been a smash spot i i get it we we all understand

00:16uh what's happened here and it's been disappointing with bijon the last couple weeks to be honest so

00:21we had the game against uh san fran where he's held to 40 yards rushing okay whatever he still

00:27had six catches for 52 in that game it's still pretty good uh and he still had a touchdown and

00:32then last week against miami a terrible game nine for 25 but let's also put it in context

00:37drake london was out last minute kirk cousins had to take over a qb and i think the game plan just

00:44became stop e john robinson and that's a simple thing even miami you could just stack eight in

00:49the box and try to do and they did and they also got up early on the falcons and game script kind

00:55of got away as well so the fact that people have given up on bijon robinson and some of these trades

01:00that i've seen for him is absolutely absurd the only guys who can theoretically rank rest of season

01:04higher than him are christian mccaffrey and jonathan taylor but here's the problem with those two guys

01:09christian mccaffrey has 196 touches already let me say that again 196 touches he is leading the league

01:16right now as a guy historically has had some injury issues this is a lot to be concerned about i'm not

01:21saying you're trading him away i'm just saying that's something you have to keep in the back of

01:25your head and jonathan taylor is at 168 that's the next second closest and i don't think you want to

01:30trade any of those guys but if you can get the third and arguably the best youngest running back

01:34the rest of season in bijon robinson you got to do it so what does that trade look like i i think it

01:40looks like you're trying to probably give another running back um someone in that i would say

01:46javante williams sort of realm maybe an ashton genti plus a wide receiver i think that's the

01:53kind of deal that might be able to get you bijon robinson which i think is absurd and then the other

01:57guy that i want to buy low on i already talked about it i don't know if the window is closed but

02:00it's certainly getting tight uh which is travion henderson i do think that eventually the the talent

02:06just wins out the draft capital just wins out of travion henderson where henderson is by far the

02:12more explosive back by far the big playmaker and if you can add that dynamic to this patriots

02:17offense the way drake may has been playing i think they're not only a playoff team but a dangerous one

02:21and i think it's it's you watch them defensively how they've come together the last couple weeks

02:26that's gonna be a big test you know they're gonna have the falcons the falcons are pretty good

02:29defense this week it's gonna be you know at home here but travion henderson how he looks today in

02:33that workload if he smashes it that window is gonna be closed so this is kind of your last morning to

02:37trade low potentially and buy him and see what he looks like rest of season because if i'm right

02:43travion henderson could be potentially a league winner in 2025 all right while we are making deals

02:50we've identified our targets but now we have to think to ourselves which assets are we looking to

02:56shed so give me some sell high candidates and maybe if we have time try to put together a blockbuster

03:01deal for us yeah i mentioned earlier jacori karoski merit doesn't have a good matchup this week

03:07uh the following week he gets detroit and then they've got miami and a buy and the last two

03:12weeks 33 rushing yards 25 rushing yards you know ever since that big game against the chargers for

03:17111 it's kind of been mediocre uh he's not working a lot in the passing game either and i think there's

03:22still this feel of yeah like well jay dan is going to come back and fix everything i don't know if he

03:26can fix the run game of the commanders necessarily so i i just want to put that out there i don't like

03:31the schedule i don't like the fact he's still got that buy coming up so if you've got jacori

03:35kroski merit i don't want to play him this week i don't know if i want to play him next week and

03:39then i got one more week to the buy it feels like there could be some more useful players i'd rather

03:43have kamani vidal for the next four weeks than jacori kroski merit i don't know if you pull that

03:47trade off but you can certainly give it a shot and then the other guy too to consider is tony pollard

03:51because i think pollard's in the spot where again if he gets traded or some of these rumors where he

03:56might that gives him some artificial value but if he ends up staying there with spears it does feel

04:02like it's starting to be really more of a 50 50 split and that's not the greatest scenario and

04:06tony pollard's had a good year he's had a couple strong seasons stringing together a couple thousand

04:10yard receiving excuse me rushing seasons in a row so i want to give credit tony pollard can help i think

04:16a lot of contending teams that are looking for some running back health but i'm telling you right now

04:20i think because of that rumor mill his value might be a little higher than it should be and then if

04:27things don't work out and he doesn't get traded his value could plummet a little bit in the weeks ahead
