00:00All right, Joe, give me a couple of by-lows.
00:01I'm looking for a quarterback and maybe a wide receiver.
00:03Let's start there.
00:05Yeah, I want to start with Superflex Leagues,
00:06and I want to start with Jacoby Brissett because now that Kyler Murray
00:09officially did go on the IR, that's four weeks now we're going to get Brissett.
00:12Now, what if they upset the Seahawks today?
00:14You know, what if we continue to move forward here with a team
00:18that Arizona really surprises and Jacoby Brissett plays well?
00:22Are we just going to go back to Kyler Murray?
00:25Probably, but I don't know if it's definitive.
00:27And it's starting to feel maybe like the organization wants to go in a different direction,
00:30and maybe they feel like a quarterback in that style of Jacoby Brissett
00:33better suits the kind of offense they want to run
00:36because clearly things weren't quite clicking the same way.
00:39And if you look at what Brissett has done from a fantasy perspective, guess what?
00:43Look at the game log.
00:44Since he's taken over as the starter there, you know, he has performed very well.
00:47So in week six, QB seven.
00:50In week seven, QB 12.
00:53And last week against the Dallas Cowboys, he was QB 10.
00:56So he has finished as a QB one in all three of his starts already.
00:59Now it's going to be a tougher chore today, obviously against the Seattle Seahawks.
01:03But if you're looking for some help here in super flex leagues, the next couple of weeks,
01:06let's say you don't have Jaden Daniels, right?
01:08And somebody else has Jacoby Brissett sitting on the bench.
01:11Jacoby Brissett's a guy that I want, and I want to start him this week in lineups.
01:14You can even make an argument to start him in single quarterback leagues this week too,
01:17despite the fact the matchup's been bad because Brissett has been that good.
01:21So this is a quarterback that I think is worth acquiring,
01:23but especially in super flex leagues, if somebody's already got QBs passed by
01:26and Brissett's just collecting dust on somebody's bench, go out there, get him.
01:30Because I think the next four weeks and some of the matchups too, he gets Jacksonville,
01:34he gets San Francisco, he gets Tampa.
01:36Those are going to be some higher scoring games, potentially.
01:39Good news for fantasy managers who are trying to get Jacoby Brissett.
01:44All right, let's move on now.
01:46Is there any value at the wide receiver position?
01:49Yeah, there is.
01:52Look, I think Nico Collins has had a season that I think we can all agree has been disappointing.
01:55He's wide receiver 36 on the year.
01:58He's got only three touchdowns, 414 yards.
02:01But the Texans' offensive line isn't good.
02:03Now you've got C.J. Stroud hurt.
02:05I think a lot of people are just frustrated.
02:07They spent a second-round pick on Nico Collins, and they haven't gotten that return.
02:11A wide receiver three is not what you're looking for.
02:13You're looking for a wide receiver one-ish out of Nico Collins.
02:17But it hasn't been.
02:18The hope is eventually you get a healthy quarterback situation, and then you look ahead to the playoffs.
02:24And Nico Collins' playoff schedule I think is very good.
02:26I know it's a little early to look ahead to that, but if you're a team that's doing very well, Nico Collins is an interesting buy low.
02:31He gets Arizona, Las Vegas, and the Chargers during his playoff run.
02:35That is a really good playoff schedule potentially for Nico Collins.
02:39And I think we can all agree and hope that by that time, Nico Collins is in a better spot.
02:43He gets Jacksonville.
02:45Then he's got the Tennessee Titans.
02:47After that, really the toughest matchup for them is the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 14.
02:52But 15, 16, 17, again, Arizona, Las Vegas, and the Chargers.
02:57Those are really good potential spots there for Nico Collins.
03:01So I like him as a buy low if you're hurting at wide receiver.
03:04And I think you can get him for a lot less than you realize based upon just people's disappointment in where they drafted him and how he's performed.
03:12All right.
03:13The old saying, buy on the dip, sell on the rip.
03:16Let's pivot.
03:17Who's on a rip here, and who should we sell high?
03:21Look, DeAndre Swift is not 100% healthy.
03:23I think you saw a common on guy last week at that workload that we've been waiting for, and it was really good.
03:28Now, granted, the matchup was also very favorable against the Cincinnati Bengals defense that, well, we know doesn't like to tackle anybody.
03:35And if you watched the show last week, who was our favorite tight end streamer of the week?
03:39Who was our favorite flex star of the week?
03:41It was Colston Loveland.
03:42So hopefully people listened to that and picked him up.
03:45But DeAndre Swift, to me, is a guy, he's playing this week.
03:48I think you want to think about selling him.
03:50Because if this backfield, as you alluded to in that earlier segment, becomes a straight 50-50, he loses some value there, potentially, especially around the goal line, which is where I think he's always been a little suspect to begin with.
04:01If you go back and look historically in his career, he has not been a great goal line back.
04:04That's not what any team has basically used him.
04:08So just keep that in mind.
04:09And then the other guy, too, that I would throw in this mix is Jacoby Myers.
04:12Because I think Jacoby Myers today is going to get some more action.
04:16People are going to talk about him.
04:17He's finally out of Vegas.
04:18Okay, what does it look like?
04:19My concern is what it looks like down the stretch, when Travis Hunter returns, when BTJ is 100% healthy.
04:26I mean, maybe Jacoby Myers surprises us all and it becomes the alpha dog in the next month.
04:30But in the next two weeks, monitor that progress he makes in this offense.
04:33Because at some point, this room could be more crowded.
04:37And when it gets crowded, that target share could decline.
04:40So this is an interesting window to watch and maybe deal with Jacoby Myers.
