00:00Let's start with Denver. R.J. Harvey is getting his opportunity to shine, seemingly making the most of it.

00:06He goes to a place in Las Vegas where things are not going their way.

00:11Travis Etienne Jr. is the other option. Jacksonville against Indianapolis.

00:17The Jaguars are surging here a little bit toward the end of the season, toward the postseason,

00:21although Etienne, not really the same beneficiary that he was, George, early on in the season.

00:27Is it cut and dry here that Harvey has emerged ahead of Etienne?

00:33It seems like Denver has no other options at running back, and Jacksonville, they have some other guys that are put near the goal line.

00:41Yeah, I mean, when you look at it blindly here, oh, playing the Raiders.

00:46Now, oh, easy choice there, but the Raiders are actually decent against the runs.

00:49The one thing they actually do well here.

00:51That being said, I mean, Etienne, they're both running back twos for me.

00:56I think there is more upside with Harvey that at least he could fall into the end zone here once, maybe twice.

01:01You never know with that offense there.

01:03Bo Nix is very inconsistent, to put it nicely.

01:07All right, so we don't know what we're going to get.

01:08It is in L.A., Las Vegas.

01:12So, you know, he had a good track there.

01:15I'm probably going with Harvey.

01:16I think I'm going to take the chance with Harvey.

01:18I think he has a much better chance to score than Etienne does there.

01:21So I'm going to go with Harvey.

01:22But they're both running back twos for me.

01:24Yeah, also keep an eye on the Raiders.

01:27Max Crosby has been banged up all week.

01:29He is the only defensive player worth a bleep on that team.

01:33And if he doesn't go, it could be a very big game for Harvey there as well.

01:37All right, let's talk about tight end, the tight end position.

01:41Let's go to Jawan Johnson or Harold Fannin of Cleveland.

01:48And George Fannin has been a really nice surprise here for Cleveland this season.

01:52I wonder if he is in your mix next year as a back end, tight end one, tight end two.

01:58I guess it depends if they bring Njoku back, who's done nothing this season.

02:02Fannin has really emerged as the guy there.

02:04But you know who else is pretty good?

02:06The guy you see on the left, Jawan Johnson.

02:07He's almost the primary target of Tyler Shuck at this point.

02:11This is a tough one for me.

02:14Not really as tough for me.

02:18Cleveland goes up against Tennessee.

02:20New Orleans against Tampa Bay.

02:22I expect New Orleans to have to throw the ball more.

02:24That Tampa will score some points here.

02:26So more chances for Jawan Johnson.

02:28So I'm going to go with Johnson over Fannin here.

02:31I don't think they're going to have the – I don't think they're going to need to throw the ball that much.

02:35I think Cleveland wins this game, by the way.

02:36If you're in a survivor pool and you're still alive here and you've got Cleveland, I mean, it's a good week to use them, right?

02:42You've got to use pretty much every team.

02:43Yeah, I would use Cleveland this week to beat Tennessee here.

02:46So I'm going to go with Jawan Johnson here in this scenario.

02:49As for next year, listen, I don't know if either quarterback is the same.

02:53All right?

02:54New Orleans is going to have a top pick.

02:55They might grab a quarterback.

02:56And Cleveland, same thing.

02:58So we'll see how that works out before we worry about next season here.

03:01But Fannin probably has more upside long-term than Jawan Johnson.

03:07All right?

03:07I will go that far.

03:08But this week, I'm starting Jawan.

03:10I'll go the other way.

03:10I'll take Fannin this week for Cleveland.

03:12Yeah.

03:12I like what I see and seems to be a faster tight end.

03:16It's like they're two completely different players, not just because Fannin doesn't wear a tight end position.

03:21It just seems like Fannin gets down the field fast.

03:23Jawan Johnson is one of those rumblers that if he catches the ball, you can't take him down.

03:27So I like both, but probably both starting, by the way, for me, a tight end.

03:31A lot of injuries, too.

03:31So Fannin for me.
