1:08Welcome to Sleep Stream Stash. It's your boy Johnny Tooman.
1:11I got Blake Stachel. We're with Player Profiler. And we are getting into week two famously advice.
1:16But first, Blake, what was your biggest takeaway from week one?
1:20Week one, man, it's just it's the funnest time.
1:23Everybody's overreacting to all the things that happened. Yeah, I think the first takeaway is that there's like a lot of teams
1:30that you thought were going to be a lot better than they were, either for fantasy or just like overall.
1:36The Chargers obviously blowing that game to Arizona week one is I didn't see that coming.
1:42I that's one of the crazier upsets week one I've seen in some time that the Packers would win that game, even
1:49though a lot of people were on the Vikings, especially when Kyler went down.
1:53Their defense is blowing that lead. Their offensive skill players look really good, though.
1:58So if you have like pieces of that offense right now, I think you should be pretty happy.
2:04My takeaway is that I think there's a lot of good quarterback play right now, like overall throughout the league.
2:10I thought I mean, even teams like the Jets with Geno was able to support Garrett Wilson had had a pretty nice day.
2:17Yeah, there's only a couple of teams like the Falcons right now who don't have who don't have solid quarterbacks.
2:24I think it's the Browns, obviously. What are the Browns doing?
2:27But yeah, I think there's a lot of quarterback plays at high scoring week to man like it's like that going up
2:35going throughout the course of the year should be fun year for fantasy.
2:39So that yeah. Yeah, it was one hell of a week one.
2:43And so it's same with Thursday night football, man.
2:46You've got we are up against each other in our redraft league.
2:49We're in our home league. Right. And you've got Amon Ross St.
2:53Brown. You also have DJ Moore, but man watching St.
2:57Brown catch that second touchdown before bed last night.
2:59Like I just I couldn't sleep, man. It was nightmare fuel.
3:03So anything to say about our matchup this week?
3:06I mean, bro, you just traded for Chase like this morning.
3:09He trades for Jason and the trade went through.
3:12So he's going to get him this week. Yeah, dude.
3:16So I have I have raw I've on run in both my money redraft leagues and last night.
3:21So my other one, dude, I have Josh Allen stacked with Kincaid and I'm on raw and I was going up against the guy with DJ Moore.
3:30So it was like just a crazy Thursday night.
3:33You were having fun last night. Nasty. So like when DJ Moore went down and I'm on raw put up 35 when
3:40I have them both in our home league couldn't even be that mad dog.
3:45It's like I'm on raw kept me in that one.
3:48And then, you know, pretty much buried the dude in the other one.
3:52So it was not looking good through like not the first half.
3:56Yeah, first half. I almost texted you victory laughing early, but I was like, this is what I get for even thinking of it.
4:04You think it's just sort of catching everything. And that's probably what they should have been doing with him all game.
4:10That was when the line started to move the ball and look good.
4:15And I was wondering, you know, when you're up against the superstar and you're watching him and you're just like, why are they not targeting this guy?
4:23He's getting wide open. Like I saw him just cooking people the whole first half, but they just looks we're going the other way.
4:31Well, I will say the line, the offensive line in the second half stepped up like it was even like soup.
4:38Penny Sewell was getting beat throughout the entire first half because they switched into the left side this year and he was struggling.
4:45And then whatever Campbell said to those boys at halftime, like they came out and Jared Goff had all day to throw.
4:52So that was kind of the biggest thing for me in terms of the shift there.
4:58But yeah, it was a fun, fun game, man, even though it was kind of a blow.
5:03What did you think of golf last night? I mean, dude, they're secondary and not only had they already beat up, but
5:10they lost so many guys last night. I just had it seemed like every drive like they had a corner safety go down.
5:18I think got top eight quarterback rest of the season just because they're going to be thrown.
5:23I mean, look at that garbage time. You finished with four touchdowns last night and a lot of it, you know, was garbage time.
5:31But I think that's going to be kind of the norm this year.
5:35I think they're going to be in a lot of shootouts.
5:39Yeah, yeah, it was the Lions. I think it's not quite the team.
5:43It was a few years ago in terms that they're going to have to fight to win every single game this year,
5:50which is is probably pretty good for fantasy, actually.
5:53So really fun stuff. Let's let's close it out with that chase trade in terms of the intro here.
5:59Parker Washington and Brees Hall on my slide for Jamar Chase.
6:02What what are you taking? Like you give some context to the exact league we're in and whether you would have done it in my scenario.
6:11But like I'm also curious, just in a vacuum, which you'd say about that trade for fantasy managers who might be looking at something similar.
6:19Yeah, context definitely matters here, like because on face value with the track record and everything, you know, it looks pretty bad
6:26if you're giving up chase for like Brees Hall, you know, tail end of the RV ones that you would want.
6:33And and Parker Washington, who is yet to like really put together a 17 game season.
6:38But, you know, both those both those guys seem to be an improved situation.
6:42Like obviously Parker Washington is in the best situation he's had in his career and had a nice week one Brees Hall's
6:50in with the Jets are having a better season.
6:52And so context matters, though. So this is a 12 team league double flex.
6:57So rosters are pretty spread out thin. And the dude that traded away chase to you with wide receiver in the first
7:04few rounds of the draft was able to get like toot and Judkins for his running backs.
7:10But I think with and Mason going down hit Mason was his RV three and actually look better than both of them in week one.
7:18And I think I can see where he would where he would want to do that.
7:23Also, it leaves you pretty thin now. So you're starting I think your RV two is like JCM now.
7:29Yeah, or Tony Pollard if he pulls it together or Emma Johnson if Kenneth Walker goes down.
7:34Yes, you have some handcuff. You have some handcuff flexibility.
7:38But yeah, dude, I think well now I mean, but but for you, I mean, you pair chase with JSN and you
7:45just kind of you're kind of just just leaning back at that point and hoping that they put up 30 points each every week.
7:52So, yeah, I think it makes sense. Honestly, like for the yeah, for this league, I think it makes sense for both of you guys.
8:01Yeah, it was a fun. Those are the fun kind of trades where you look at them and you're like, oh, crap.
8:08Right. And I love Parker Washington, huge Parker Washington fan.
8:11But my favorite player is probably Jamar Chase. So when he sent me that offer, I had to noodle on it.
8:18Think long and hard. I did not accept it right away.
8:21But I ultimately was like, you know what? I feel like I'm selling high on both of those guys.
8:27Brees Hall off a nice week one. Parker Washington off a nice week one.
8:32And I'm buying low on Chase. And in general, I kind of like that philosophy.
8:37So we'll see, though. I am a little nervous that those guys could both have solid seasons and that, you know, when
8:44you combined what they could do for me to your point, like we'll chase out produce that in that one spot.
8:51Maybe not, you know, but well, very cool, man.
8:53Let's get into the show again. Thank you guys for watching today.
8:57This is the first edition of Sleep Stream Stash in 2026.
9:01I'm with my boy Blake Stachel and I'm Johnny Tuma.
9:04That's Fantasy Picasso on X. This show is a show I did with Memphis Young and Evan Wrangler last year.
9:11Memphis was the host. Rest in peace. I miss you every day, Memphis.
9:15And I know we both had so much fun doing this show and I wanted to keep it alive.
9:21I wanted to honor him. So I'm going to do my best to hold it down as the host.
9:27This is going to be a weekly show every Friday that we can in season.
9:32Things come up. We'll probably aim to get a third rotating guest, but we wanted to just kick it off with Blake
9:39and I today as kind of the main host of the show.
9:43At its heart, this is a start set show for week two.
9:47So this is live. Get your questions in the chat and we will answer them at the end of the show.
9:53We've got players. We're going to first highlight two sleepers, two streamers and two stashes.
9:58Sleepers are players that you can target in a pinch owned in less than 50% of redraft leagues generally and guys that
10:05are maybe flying a little too under the radar in a given week.
10:10Streamers are players that you can anchor your weekly DFS lineups around really good values in those types of formats.
10:16They're not necessarily under the radar guys all the time, but they're also not necessarily guys we're overly in on all seasons.
10:23So in a given week, they could be the guy you need.
10:27So we're going to give you two of those and then two stashes.
10:31These could be dynasty or redraft guys who have shown some signal.
10:35They're available in a lot of your leagues and their time is coming.
10:39You want to get them now and reap the benefits later.
10:43So after we cover those, we will get into the start sick questions.
10:47So get those in the chat, light them up, start getting that chat going and welcome to street sleep stream stash.
10:54Okay, man, let's get into it. All right. So our first segment is our sleepers.
10:59I am going to go with Jalen McMillan from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a cake matchup against the Cleveland Browns this week.
11:06He missed week one, but he is a full participant.
11:09Now Ted Hurst played 75% of the snaps for the Buccaneers in week one as the wide receiver three.
11:15So they love playing three wide receiver sets. I think McMillan might not see the, you know, that full workload in week
11:23one, but he could see 60% of the snaps.
11:25I think he will slot in as their wide receiver three over Ted Hurst.
11:30Hurst did okay in his first game, but didn't do anything.
11:33You know, didn't go nuclear. I don't think he locked down that role.
11:38Uh, and McMillan has proving chemistry with Baker throughout his career.
11:41Again, the Cleveland defense is very porous, especially they really showed a lot of vulnerability through the air last week against the Jaguars.
11:49I think the Buccaneers will continue to exploit that.
11:52Also think just watching some of the film Godwin just kind of looks like he's moving a little different.
11:58I do think he's not quite the player he used to be.
12:02I think a Mecca a wait in me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me.
12:07Uh, because I just don't know if I see it right now with him, with that toe injury.
12:13I don't know what's throwing him off a little bit, but solid week one, but nothing again to write home about.
12:20I think that Jalen McMillan could have a good week to and sneakily be a guy that you pick up as a
12:27sleeper now and could end up holding some value.
12:30In redraft all season. So that's my week two sleeper.
12:33I'm willing to stand on business that I think he could have a solid, uh, week.
12:38And again, I wanted to dig deep in the dumpster bin in terms of guys that were on waivers in that league
12:45that you talked about with eight starters, deep rosters and all that stuff.
12:50So what do you think about that one, Blake?
12:53Uh, well, first of all, you should have left the, uh, Ed Mecca, uh, on the cutting room floor or on the, in the drafts, bro.
13:01I don't know if that played, but, uh, um, the, uh, the, the thought process is, is, is smart.
13:07I think, um, yeah, without miles, get the Browns couldn't, they, they don't have a pass rush.
13:13Like obviously fist coming in, um, or date and verse, sorry.
13:16Um, coming in, like, isn't the same type of, of pass rush.
13:20So like, we're not as scared last year. It's like, those kinds are just dirty games.
13:25You don't really want anybody in those games for the Browns against them.
13:29But this year, I think like you can attack the defense, um, a little bit more.
13:35My, my one concern is it is that, you know, the box could just get out to an early lead.
13:41And, uh, if McMillan isn't a part of that, like scoring in the first half, like he might not, um, do anything.
13:48But when he is on the field, I feel like every time McMillan is on the field, he, he's, uh, Baker is
13:55looking his way, at least in the past. I know they have, they were, uh, a lot of talks in camp about
14:02how they still had that connection going into this year.
14:05Um, so yeah, it makes sense. And of course, like these are deep, deep, these are deep picks, like for a team
14:13who just traded for chase, who needs to fill in a second flex in these leagues.
14:18So yeah, for sure. Um, and on that note, so mine is along similar lines, uh, to yours.
14:24I think McMillan's probably owned in what, like 35, 40% of leagues right now.
14:28Maybe even less. Yeah, maybe. Um, yeah. So right along those lines, I'm going to go with, uh, 80 Mitchell this week
14:35against a Packers secondary who looked pretty vulnerable last week.
14:38I know a lot of it was in the second half, but it was against Carson Wentz.
14:44He's coming into the game cold. Um, and, uh, he just, he, they scored 22 points in like 10 minutes.
14:50Um, and I know Packers fans are concerned about the secondary Xavier McKinney, uh, is their number one guy on the back
14:57end and he's, he's a safety, but he took a step back last year.
15:02And a lot of people's eyes and on the outside, Keyshawn Nixon, they're starting rookie, uh, Brandon Cissie.
15:08Um, so they're vulnerable there. I think, um, Garrett Wilson will draw some coverage.
15:12I think the Jets throw the ball 30, 35 times against that, uh, against that team.
15:17I think the Packers obviously like, um, are going to win that game, but I think it's going to be closer than people think.
15:25And I think, uh, I think, you know, has a pretty good day.
15:29The offensive line, uh, might be a top five unit.
15:33Um, honestly, like they look really good. Um, so I think I'm pretty bullish on, on 80 Mitchell this week to, uh,
15:40fill in your lineup and get you 15, 20 points, even if he gets a touchdown.
15:45Yeah. I think they sneakily played some really solid football, the Jets in week one on offense, some clean football.
15:51Um, you know, I don't think that Gino had a single turnover.
15:55Um, so, and I also thought when you watched it, it was like, they could have, there was meat left on the bone there.
16:03There, there, there was some opportunities where that score could have been even more lopsided against the Titans.
16:09So it, my other big takeaway there was the Titans might be a really, uh, kind of a team that gets beat up on all its season.
16:17So, uh, that, did you see that play of Cam Ward, like doing the fake or reverse where he just tossed the
16:25ball up in the air to himself? Did you see that?
16:28Yeah. Titans are our bottom three for sure right now.
16:31Like they might even be bottom one, um, overall, but that, but, but so like a matchup like that for the, for
16:38the Jets, like should be good to get them loosened up.
16:42But I think honestly, like a tougher matchup where they're forced to throw the ball more is better for these like wide receivers and fantasy.
16:50So 80 Mitchell had nine points last week. He played like 90% of the snaps.
16:55I think this week when they're forced to throw the ball against the better team, um, he can have more opportunity, especially,
17:02um, yeah, late in the game, maybe get some garbage time as well.
17:06So, and I mean, didn't do nothing in week one.
17:09No, he looked okay. Fantasy points, 60 receiving yards, 20 yards per catch.
17:14I mean, so they were using him downfield. I think he's the type of guy who can splash when he does hit.
17:21And that's where, when we're picking a sleeper, we're not picking a guy who we think is going to get you nine points.
17:28We're thinking that there's a big touchdown potentially in there.
17:31I think McMillan's kind of shown his ability to, to, you know, be a touchdown scorer in his career.
17:38And Mitchell has shown his abilities to break big plays.
17:41Right. Think about that one time when he was with the Colts where he fumbled that amazing, like caught it, made a
17:48guy miss ran 70 yards and then let's go of it before the goal line.
17:53But the play was sick. Like they traded him right after that play.
17:57Yeah. Yeah. I saw like the, he's got the tools.
18:00And to your point, I mean, he was top six in ADOT last year.
18:05A lot of his routes are deep down the field route.
18:08So when you are starting these guys deep and deep leagues, you're looking for that boom potential.
18:14So yeah. And he'll, you know, that snap chair for him is solid.
18:18I really liked that call. Um, he's one of those ones.
18:21It's like, it's almost cheating when you pick him as a sleeper.
18:25Cause like, dang, yeah, that's a start. 27% of leagues in redraft though right now.
18:30So no. Yeah, totally, totally, totally. A great pick.
18:33So, um, we just got news. Zay flowers doubtful for week two.
18:37And that is actually perfect timing as I get into our streamers.
18:41Uh, and again, reminder to get your start sick questions in the chat.
18:45They are starting to fill up. We may not get to them all.
18:49We will take priority on the first ones that, uh, we got to, or we get.
18:54So get those starts now, uh, sick questions and get those lineup questions for us.
18:59Um, but I'll get into our streamer again. Zay flowers is doubtful.
19:03I know he's not going to play. I just know it.
19:07That was part of the reason I went to go get to March.
19:11I was chasing that league is I knew flowers is going to be out.
19:15I was going to have to, you know, watching St.
19:19Brown put up 35 points. I, uh, I needed all that upside I could get.
19:23So with, with Zay flowers out and with Jacoby lane also out due to, I think broken wrist or something.
19:30He had some sort of hand injury, right? And I think they placed him on IR.
19:35Um, Rashad Bateman 4,400 on draft Kings. Uh, that is the same cost as McMillan, but I think this is a slightly better value in this given week.
19:44Uh, just because we know that the role is going to be there as the wide receiver one again, no flowers, no lane.
19:51We're almost locking him in for an 85% snap chair and probably the focal point of that passing game as gross as
19:59it sounds like he's going to be fighting with snaps for LaJonte Wester, Chris Moore, and Elijah Surratt may play this week.
20:06He was a healthy and active in week one.
20:09I think Mark Andrews is a shell of himself.
20:11Uh, and there's actually some more exciting tight ends in that room, maybe than him.
20:16That could be a bigger factor in terms of fighting for targets for Rashad Bateman in week two.
20:22So, but that being said, all, all that said very little target competition.
20:26Um, this is a, it's a pretty solid matchup.
20:29We watched, uh, the saints play, uh, the lions in week one and be pretty exploitable through the air.
20:35So Rashad Bateman kind of gross. Don't love him.
20:38You know, like a guy that I want to anchor my redraft team or anything like that around.
20:44But I think this week in DFS or, uh, uh, in a, in a pinch in a redraft league, like he's certainly
20:51a guy who's a solid play this week. Uh, what do you think about that one, Blake?
20:57Like, I know you're not a huge fan of the, the guy, uh, or, uh, you, you, you, you clean up, but you tell me what you're thinking.
21:06Uh, yeah. Uh, Bateman, uh, not a fan of the player, but he, he's going to get 90%, 95% of the snaps.
21:13Um, yeah. I mean, they're just decimated at wide receiver.
21:16You touched on all, all the, all the issues there.
21:19Um, I think it's going to be still a high scoring game.
21:23I mean, it's, it can't just be Derek Henry on the ground.
21:27They're going to have to throw the ball a little bit.
21:30Um, I, I like Bateman to get like maybe five for 60 and a tutty I'd be happy with.
21:37Um, so yeah, I don't, I don't personally love it, but the price is right.
21:41So I, you know, if you're, when you're building a DFS team, it makes sense to try and get a guy like that.
21:49Who's going to get volume, um, for cheap. So I like it.
21:53I went a different direction though. So I hope, yeah.
21:56So Blake doesn't love my streamer, the player, but let's see who he's got.
22:01I'm sure he's got a good one. So don't go anywhere.
22:04Ooh, trade just came out on my phone. Let's see.
22:07Should I make it? I don't know. I want to make a move now though.
22:12I don't want to wait to get back to my computer.
22:16What do I do? Oh, we have the dynasty dominator app that scores a trade based on our lifetime value rating at playerprofiler.com.
22:23We also give you just a price lookup tool with the ADP to say, what is this guy really worth?
22:30And the app has a player comparison tool to juxtapose the advanced metrics of two players.
22:35This is $5 in the app store. That's it.
22:38So we want you to do deep research on playerprofiler.com, but we also want you to be able to make moves in the moment.
22:45So go get that dynasty dominator. Now it's in the app store.
22:49It's on Google play and you can thank me later.
22:52I don't care about my exact weight. I don't care how much I weigh.
22:57I care about how good I look and how good I feel.
23:01And that's why I'm so happy. I found hims weight loss by hims now offers access to the FDA approved what govy pill and what govy pen.

24:02Dynasty Dominator app. The inaugural episode of the 2026 Sleep Stream Stash with Johnny Tooman and Blake Staschel.
24:08We are having fun. We're getting questions in the chat.
24:12Start sick questions. Keep getting those in the chat and we will answer them at the end of the show.
24:18Let's hear your week two streamer, Blake. So yeah, so I'm thinking purely a DFS play and I'm going to build my roster around this player.
24:26I was getting some pretty decent builds going with Jaden Daniels this week as my quarterback.
24:32He's a thousand dollars cheaper than like some of those top options, but he gets to go against the Dallas Cowboys who
24:39just looked, I mean, if not as bad, worse than they did last year in terms of being able to adjust in
24:46game, being able to stop the run, stop the pass.
24:49I mean, they couldn't do anything against the Giants.
24:52And Jaden Daniels to me is like Jackson Dart, but like a mega Jackson Dart and Dart could do whatever he wanted in that game.
25:00I mean, he was rushing at ease, passing the ball, just huge windows to throw the ball.
25:05I think most of the pass catchers are decent options this week for DFS.
25:10I'm starting Gibbs over some players even in redraft and dynasty this week.
25:14McLaurin's pretty cheap right now. I think there's a lot of value to be had on both sides of the ball in
25:21that game, but Jaden Daniels, I think stands to benefit the most.
25:25And he's 6,500 right now and I'm paying him with guys.
25:29I can get Bichon there and still get like decent pass catchers.
25:33Um, so yeah, Jaden Daniels is a smash this week.
25:36I think he has a very strong chance of finishing.
25:39Well, probably not QB one with what Josh Allen did last night, but I think he has a very strong chance of finishing QB two.
25:47Yeah. And you know, someone who not that long ago, everybody was so high on this guy, right?
25:53A 17.6 points, uh, in week one. So not a terrible performance, uh, against the tough Philly defense with a lot of talent.
26:00And, uh, this is just a solid, solid matchup.
26:03I love to your point calling out the over under, you know, someone's got to score the points in this game.
26:10It's kind of why I like bill in my lineup as well.
26:14I think this Dallas defense has a lot of things to figure out with that new defensive coordinator.
26:20Uh, there was some film on the sideline as just the players and him interacting that just did not look, uh, very inspiring.
26:27And so, um, you know, hopefully I think he'll figure it out, but I don't know if it'll be this week to your point.
26:35I think that the, uh, commander stand to benefit this week against the, uh, Cowboys.
26:40So good call there. And again, not an under the radar guy, but a guy who is a good value in these weekly, uh, formats.
26:48So, um, with that, we have covered our sleepers and our streamers.
26:52Let's get into some stashes. Uh, and Blake, I'll let you go first.
26:56Yeah, there's a handful of guys, obviously with the waivers going through Tuesday, a lot of these guys have been picked up,
27:03but I just want to highlight like in redraft, if you're sitting there and you like have a Devin Singletary on your
27:10bench or a player like that, who, um, really doesn't have that upside.
27:14I think you got to check to see if Caleb Douglas, Emmitt Johnson and Malachi Fields are on your waivers.
27:21I would prioritize, um, Douglas obviously, but I feel like everybody rushed to pick him up.
27:26Emmitt Johnson, if he's still there, I think has serious upside.
27:29Um, obviously if Kenneth Walker goes down, he is a RB to obviously smash play every week.
27:35And it seemed like, I mean, I know that they dominated the Broncos last week and he saw a lot of action,
27:42um, kind of after they were down, but even in those touches, he looked really good, um, catching the ball.
27:48So in PPR leagues, especially, um, Emmitt Johnson's my, is my stash of the week right now.
27:54Yeah. I mean, Emmitt Johnson, I feel like if you were in a sharp redraft league, people picked him up at the end of the draft.
28:02You, and let's, let's beat you up a little bit.
28:05You and I are in that redraft league and you took Cole, uh, Johnson before I had a chance to grab him.
28:13And then you, I believe released him for someone, uh, before week one, like Malachi Fields.
28:18I have neighbors, neighbors insurance, but then you also like went to go pick him back up, but you were, you didn't have priority.
28:25I did. And so I got Emmitt Johnson off of waivers before week one and what we saw in week one, I'm not letting the guy go.
28:34Right. So really funny situation. But to that point, any scenario where that guy is on a, uh, bench or on waivers,
28:41I mean to say, and is unowned in a redraft league, he should be owned in a hundred percent of redraft leagues.
28:48He's probably the most contingent upside handcuff just look so awesome.
28:52But the only problem is that Kenneth Walker looked really, really awesome against the Broncos.
28:57Uh, and Blake and I, both Colorado natives, uh, and both big Broncos fans.
29:01I'm sure you can agree with me that that was one of the like toughest games to watch over the past few years.
29:09Like I just thought it was brutal, man. I mean, I have Kenneth Walker, so yeah, you were, you were loving it,
29:16but I wasn't loving it, but it, you know, it's, you had your bets.
29:20And, uh, that's why I don't, I don't draft Broncos players, dude.
29:24Cause if you, if you're a fan of the team and you're watching this get trounce fire divisional rival and you have
29:31Jalen Waddle also on your team, like brutal. Just absolutely.
29:35That was me. Yeah. I have Waddle in one league and I was, you're watching him lose, you know, snaps and targets to Pat Bryant.
29:43And, uh, really rough week one for the Broncos, rough play calling on offense, rough tackling on defense.
29:48Um, so genuinely concerned, I will admit it's not just something I think was like, Oh, just a tough, the chiefs are better than we thought.
29:57Like, I think we, we have a really tough schedule coming up too.
30:01So it could be a long season for the Broncos.
30:04Uh, I don't want to say it's getting late early after what one week, but it's, it certainly was not inspiring.
30:11Um, so let's close out with my stash before we get to the start sits, get those final questions in now.
30:18Um, I'm going more of like a dynasty stash direction to your point.
30:22I played in some deep leagues and I wanted to go for a guy who cleared waivers, didn't get picked up in any of those leagues.
30:30I think there was just something here where we are all looking at, you know, Brian Thomas jr.
30:36And Travis Hunter and Jacoby Myers and Parker Washington.
30:39And we are just fully never going to give Josh Cameron, even like a look in, in any leagues as deep as they get.
30:47And I think that's, I I'm starting to draw the line.
30:50Like I would prefer him over guys like Cooper cup, Kevin Coleman, Barry Brown, Dion Burke.
30:56Like these are all higher rostered guys significantly on sleeper and dynasty leagues.
31:00And they are, are having little to no role in their offense, uh, or team in general right now.
31:06Like he's playing a pretty big role on special teams.
31:09And you know, we only had a couple catches, but one of them was a really awesome catch in the end zone
31:16that required a lot of trust from, uh, Trevor Lawrence.
31:19Like he threw it between four defenders, right on an anticipation throw where he knew Josh Cameron was going to be.
31:26So again, he's tied to an offense. It's elite with the quarterback that seems to only be getting better.
31:32And I think there's just a lot of ambiguity around Hunter.
31:36You've got Brian Thomas jr. Who's already got kind of a shoulder injury.
31:40Um, and I think he could really slot in and see a lot of snaps on the outside and be a red zone target for the, uh, Jaguars.
31:49And that this week one performance where he had 33% of the snaps may not like be all that fluky.
31:56I think it's something where he continues to ease into this offense more.
32:00So, um, Josh Cameron could actually be a guy.
32:03And I know it, I know nobody wants to acknowledge it, but it's, I just have to, I have to, it's my
32:10duty to do this for you guys. So, uh, Blake closing thoughts on Josh Cameron.
32:15Oh man. All I'm going to say is that Trevor Lawrence throw, that was, that was the throw of the week, throw of the week for sure.
32:23If you guys haven't seen that, um, absolute dark, both angles of that throw are just absurd.
32:29All right. Well, let's get into our start, sit questions.
32:32Uh, I want to call out Jamie. What up fellas?
32:35Thanks for giving a great podcast to listen to at work.
32:39Loves doing this Friday at a three. Cause I know there's just people with like weekend brain and ready to just talk football.
32:46So we're here for you guys. We'll be here all season.
32:50And, uh, thank you for joining. And you've got some questions.
32:53I see those Jamie and we'll get to those.
32:56Uh, Christian Watson. This is E T W underscore burn ass.
33:00Uh, Christian Watson, Monty, Kyron, Chase Brown. Need two running backs and one flex full PPR.
33:05DJ gave me negative one last night. Um, Blake, I'll let you go first.
33:09Um, Dan, those are some good options. I think, uh, you're starting Brown and Monty, right?
33:15Let me just pull up the slate real quick.
33:18Um, man. And Kyron too. I mean, I'd love to get Christian Watson in my lineup, but, uh, you know, is the sauce.
33:25Does he have history with sauce Gardner? Probably not.
33:28Well, sauce plays for the Colts now, dog. Oh, true.
33:31I got weekend brain. Um, uh, that's my bad.
33:34Yeah. Anyway, that Jets defense is, there's not a lot of talent there.
33:38I think. Um, but I, I, I always love leaning into these bell cow running backs.
33:43Yeah, man. And he's still like last week was his floor game.
33:47And I think he had like 15 points. So, uh, I, I understand you feel like you need to play catch up
33:54with DJ, but like Watson, you know, kind of has a boomer bus role, like a bus week for Watson could probably
34:01put you in the grave, uh, where I just think those running backs, all three of those guys have the, that pass
34:09catching workload involvement and they have such high floors and high ceilings that I'm leaning.
34:13I always like starting the running back in my flex if I've got three bell cow running back.
34:19So that's my take. Yeah, I would agree. I, I would, I don't know if, uh, I think Christian Watson is pretty baked in.
34:27Uh, I don't, I think he has a pretty solid floor this year though.
34:31That's the only thing. Yeah, I get it. I mean, golden sneakily had 12 targets and, uh, you know, read, read has his weeks.
34:39Right. I just, yeah, we'll see. Um, Johnny and Blake, let's go shout out Garrett, our producer, our man.
34:45We, we went out, uh, when we were at the combine to dinner with Garrett, we had a lot of fun, Blake,
34:52uh, Garrett and I, so shout out Garrett. Um, I got a trade request for Christian Watson and Javante Williams in return.
35:00He would give me Justin Jefferson and Kyron Williams.
35:02Do you think I should do it? Yes. Yeah.
35:05As much as I love Javante this year. Yeah.
35:08Like, I like all four names on the screen, right?
35:11Like they're all great players, but you're getting Justin Jefferson and Kyron.
35:15I actually am surprised that he is making that offer when we're one week into the season and he definitely drafted both
35:22of those guys ahead of both of your guys.
35:25Like I would almost guarantee Kyron went ahead of Javante and guaranteed Jefferson went way ahead of Watson.
35:31So yeah, this is a sell high in this scenario.
35:34Uh, if you can dump Watson off after one week for Justin Jefferson, you, you got to do it.
35:41Dude, follow up, uh, X, no bogeys. Like comment when you accept it.
35:45Like you should not be thinking too long and hard about that.
35:49So I hope you lock it in while we're on the show.
35:52Uh, if Olave is out, who would you start a wider super two and in the flex out of Evans?
35:59Evans, A-chan, Etienne, uh, Godwin Pierce. For me, this is easily Evans.
36:03Um, I believe it's Miami play. Yeah. Miami. I mean, that's an absolute target.
36:07Uh, this is easily Evans for me. Yeah. Who do the Saints play again?
36:12Ravens? Yeah. Uh, yeah. Yeah. Godwin against Miami. Don't ever think it.
36:16I mean, he can get three. Evans against Miami.
36:19Yeah. Uh, I would, and honestly, even if Olave is in, I would look long and hard at the rest of your
36:26lineup and see if there's a way to get Mike Evans in there.
36:30Cause, uh, I like his spot this week and I'd be curious who else, you know?
36:35Yeah. Um, half PPR, Quentin Johnson, Khalif Raymond, uh, shout out Holy Cross, uh, UTJ or Mononga and my flex, um, man.
36:42I don't want to say Quentin Johnston because you've got him in your flex against me and like, uh, it would be validating you.
36:50It's definitely not Khalif Raymond for me. And I, I kind of shy away from BTJ with this shoulder thing.
36:56Like, I just think these are the types of injuries where you fall on at once wrong and you're missing snaps throughout the game.
37:04Um, the only people say for BTJ is, uh, we, the Broncos tend to give up points to the wide receiver too.
37:11Riley Moss looks like he might be a different player this year, but, uh, I think, I think BT, I mean, but then Jacoby too.
37:19Um, and with the shoulder. So yeah, I think I'm starting QJ this week and I don't even feel good about it though.
37:27So, um, it's not Raymond for me. Honestly, Mononga.
37:30Could you look to start Mononga there, Johnny? I was thinking about it.
37:34I mean, the Vikings, like Flores likes to, you know, crowd the line of scrimmage, like bring that kind of pressure.
37:41I don't know if I love that again. That's why I think I almost start leaning Quentin Johnson, especially in half PPR
37:48where you like, you're kind of banking on either a solid ground game opportunity with Mononga or like that, those, those long touchdown passes.
37:55Right. And I think the charges versus the Raiders, like, uh, the Raiders are, they, they present an opportunity for Johnson to,
38:02you know, have one of those big plays. So, uh, for me, I might lean Quentin Johnson here.
38:08Yeah. With those four players, it's, it's QJ also before the show, you were saying somebody reminded you of QJ.
38:15Do you remember who that was? You said that.
38:18Caleb Douglas. It was not a compliment really. No, but Caleb Douglas, seven catches for 90 yards last week against the Raiders.
38:25So there you go. There you go. That's actually, it'll be really interesting to see like if he gets the exact same line.
38:32Replicate or outperform or yeah, be in the same range.
38:35He can go seven for 90 and get a tutty is what I'll say.
38:40Like Johnson does have some ceiling this week. That's why I'm playing him, um, over like, I think I'm playing him over
38:47MHJ, uh, Marvin Harrison, which, you know. And you've got a dinged up McConkie, right?
38:52I think he'll play. Yeah, for sure. But again, McConkie's kind of first team all blue tent.
38:57Like he could get dinged up. Uh, so I, I like Johnson in this one.
39:02I, the more we talk through it, uh, Friar Muth or Hawk.
39:06I'm going to say Friar Muth, man. I've been, I've been kind of pounding this, this drum, uh, that he was such
39:13a value at like pick 200 and in off season drafts.
39:17And, uh, one of the things that I think got swept under the radar all off season was just the praise that
39:24he was drawing from Aaron Rogers and the additional additional amount of work he was putting in with him.
39:30And, you know, it kind of showed in week one, right?
39:33Like the, the touchdown, um, and Rogers is a guy who likes to have that familiarity and that trust with his targets
39:41before he even throws the ball their way. Um, Hawk, you know, hopefully rebounding.
39:45I think he's also been a guy I've been somewhat interested in coming back year three of that, uh, like from a brutal injury.
39:53I think he finally could maybe start to be more of who he was a couple of years ago before the injury.
40:00Um, but that being said, I also have a little more, less confidence that Wentz, like Wentz is like classic for having a good week.
40:08And then you throw them in your lineup, you get excited about the, like, you know, Jeff, Dustin Jefferson is a must start.
40:15And then he craps the bed the next week.
40:18So I think I line, I lean, uh, Friar Muth here.
40:22What is, what is your thoughts, Blake? Um, yeah, I actually don't even, I agree with what you said about Wentz, but
40:29I don't know if it's really even a downgrade over the, the, the Steelers offense right now.
40:34I mean, I'm not, I'm not saying that, uh, I w I don't like some of their players on certain weeks, but
40:42against the, um, Patriots this week, I think, I don't know if Rogers is going to be able to move the ball.
40:49Really? Um, I would lean Hawkinson against the Browns, uh, especially cause he, he, he, he was one of my biggest fates
40:56going into the year, but he looked, he looked, um, he looked a little better than he has in the last couple of years in week one.
41:05He had a touchdown. So I would go, I would go Hawkinson, but, um, yeah, it's just kind of, I would check over unders too.
41:13And just see like who, who's going to score more points in that game.
41:17Cause you're really just betting on a touchdown. Yeah.
41:20I didn't, I changed my answer completely. I didn't realize they were playing the bears and I didn't, I was kind of
41:27just going off names and that is a brutal matchup with the Patriots and Hawk playing the bears is a great matchup.
41:34So, uh, I probably would, would lean with what Blake's saying actually, um, with flowers out is Bateman a top 36 wide receiver.
41:42Stand on it, Johnny stand on business. Uh, let's see.
41:45Well, like let's six is interesting. I don't know if he's top 36.
41:49Yeah. That's what I want to see. Who is 36.
41:52That's right around Michael Wilson who plays Seattle, Cortland Sutton, Sutton versus Jacksonville.
41:56I probably don't have them up there. No, I would say he's closer to like just outside the top 40.
42:03Um, I definitely have him ahead of Xavier worthy, probably ahead of Marvin Harrison jr.
42:08Again, that they, he plays the Seahawks. Uh, so yeah, yeah, probably just ahead of Jordan Addison maybe, but I, again, I,
42:15I just not enough at a, at a zero burger in week one.
42:19Um, yeah, but again, you know, he plays Chicago that could be a shootout, right?
42:24Like I probably definitely start him over, uh, Bateman would start him over Denzel Boston.
42:29Who's wider super 45, you know? So like, I think, I think in the high forties is about right.
42:35Um, you know, I may even start them over quick.
42:38Chris Godwin jr. Who they have ranked at 34.
42:41Again, that's just more cause I'm lower on Godwin.
42:44So yeah, I think, I guess that's like, that's the right range in general, 36 through 40, I think is fair.
42:51Um, okay. Is, is Andrews a top five play?
42:54I don't think so. I think we've seen over the last couple of years, like there's been several smash weeks for Andrews,
43:01like awesome situation in terms of, uh, you know, you think he's going to have limited target competition, their juicy matchup that
43:08every other tight end can seem to exploit. Somehow he just finds a way to just, you know, hasn't put it together.
43:15One of those signature Mark Andrews games in several years.
43:18And I, I just don't know if he ever will again at this point.
43:23So, uh, I would not have him as the top five tight end.
43:27I can imagine I could name, let's just see, again, I'll throw up tight end.
43:32Let's see who they have this 10 and five.
43:35Uh, I don't care about my exact weight. I don't care how much I weigh.
43:39I care about how good I look and how good I feel.
43:43And that's why I'm so happy. I found HIMS weight loss by HIMS now offers access to the FDA approved.

44:46McBride, Loveland, Kincaid, Warren, Laporta, Goddard. I definitely have Goddard ahead of him.
44:50I'd have likely ahead of him. Kraft. I'd even go so far to say Kelsey.
44:55If you want Johnson in that game, probably I'd rather play.
44:58Yeah. Yeah. George Kittle even like slow start to the year.
45:02But yeah, give me George Kittle. Like give me Harold Fannin, right?
45:06So I'd have him comfortably outside my top 10 tight ends.
45:09I will say if not this week, then probably never.
45:12But yeah, we'll see. I just wouldn't bet on it this week either.
45:17I think sometimes you like you sit there and you're like, all right, prove it to me this week or else it's like I'm really over you.
45:25Drop him maybe even. Dude, it's I'm telling you, it's it's getting ugly.
45:29Booty or Bateman this week? I would lean Bateman again when we talked about top 40.
45:35I wouldn't have anywhere booty near those guys. I mean, 33 percent of the snaps last week.
45:40So he's still getting worked in there, too. Oh, booty.
45:43Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Parker Washington or Luther Burden.
45:46I'm going to stand on business. I'm going to say Parker Washington is going to absolutely torch the Broncos just like he
45:53did late in the season last year. You mentioned like, you know, are there?
45:58I think you said something like are the wide receiver twos are really successful against us.
46:03Yeah, kind of plays that wide receiver like slot and, you know, finds a way to not.
46:08I don't think he sees the Sertan shadow is my point.
46:12And so give me give me Parker Washington until we have a reason not to start him.
46:18You've got to find a way to keep that guy in your lineup.
46:22We're getting to our last questions. So any final questions, put them in trade burden plus Lloyd for a Buka.
46:28In a nutshell, I mean, I don't really even need to look at this guy's roster just because like I don't think
46:35I would do a Buka for burden straight up after what I like.
46:39I don't know. I'm really excited about the Bears offense.
46:43I do think burden will. I don't think he showed us anything last week that like he's a bust, you know, and
46:50maybe you can squeeze something for Lloyd like separately.
46:53I would look to move Lloyd, but maybe see if you can include something else instead of burden.
46:59Because I do think that's a little too close of like a one for one trade.
47:04Yeah. Also, if you're tearing up from burden, I think you can do better than Nick Buka.
47:09That's what I would say. Yeah. Decent lineup. Trade Watson and Tootin for Malik neighbors.
47:14Oh, probably. Yeah. Yeah, probably. Yeah. Malik looked good in week one.
47:18He's my third quarterback in the home league. He was clearly getting eased in.
47:22And I think there is, you know, better weeks ahead for him.
47:26And week one was good enough. Yeah. Week one was a positive sign for me.
47:31Overly positive. I mean, it was against the Cowboys, but there's some risk there, obviously.
47:36But I would do that. I would make that deal.
