00:00let's check in with dave richard fantasy football guru for cbs sports he's driven by our friends
00:04at bill page toyota for who to start ask dave for who to start there's bill page toyota and
00:10smart path you can set the lineup your way shop online personalize your payment value your trade
00:17and see it all up front start now bill page toyota.com what's going on dave so there i was
00:25at the fort lauderdale airport getting ready to go on a work trip to pittsburgh for a steelers
00:30preseason game and then i was going to catch another preseason game the next night in a different
00:33town and i'm in the security line and i reach for my wallet and it's not there oh right i
00:40have to
00:40drive home oh it's the worst yeah that's panic level 10 i don't have anybody to call panic level 10
00:48go through my car can't find in the car can't call anybody home because no one's at home i drive
00:52home
00:53find the wallet now i've got to rebook this flight and i kind of can't let work know that i
00:58might
00:59not make the preseason game because i left my wallet at home yeah everything worked out at the end it
01:04might have cost me a few bucks out of my own pocket to do it yeah but man there there
01:08is no worse
01:09feeling the other thing other than like sitting a guy that goes for four touchdowns yeah that's not
01:13good but the other thing is i think all of us i know i when i leave my house when
01:17my brain's working
01:18and i'm not you know thinking about other things i always just check my pockets phone wallet keys
01:23always right phone wallet keys phone wallet key always i agree how did i not do that this morning
01:28you were thinking you know what you're thinking about jayden daniels taking that sack it's just
01:32been thinking about his chipping his chipping technique yeah maybe it's chipping all right so
01:37um panic level 10 all right one of my leagues i'm 0 and 5 i'm done i don't care about
01:41that league
01:41but i'm 4 and 1 and a couple other leagues this particular league i'm 2 and 3 so this is
01:46a big week
01:46for me dave uh kirk cousins against buffalo at home or tyler shuck at the giants i am nervous about
01:56shuck after what i saw last week and it's twofold number one the reason why he didn't have great
02:00stats it's not only because he went up against the vikings but that saint's defense could not get off
02:04the field and there wasn't a lot of time for shuck to work his magic and i didn't like their
02:09game plan
02:09either and the giants over the last couple of weeks they've really evolved their pass rush they're
02:15getting after the quarterback it makes me nervous to trust tyler shuck so i would actually lean on
02:20the old man kirk cousins and keep my fingers crossed that the raiders keep it relatively close
02:25so that he's not benched in the fourth quarter for fernando mendoza like he was last week and this
02:29bill's defense isn't very good they've got a couple of good pass rushers but everything else there can
02:34be beaten he's got bowers he can take some shots downfield he can check it down to his running
02:39backs and he's had good numbers up until last week i think this could be a bounce back game for
02:43cousins i would take cousins ahead of tyler shuck dave if you're looking at running backs woody
02:48marks is really rising now isn't he he's he's just got a great opportunity and and we're living in a
02:54fantasy world right now where if you've got the opportunity if you've got the chance to get north
02:59of 15 touches in a football game you're going to start in fantasy and put on top of that the
03:05injuries
03:05at the position the fact that there's four teams on by i know it makes woody marks a top 20
03:11running
03:12back even though he's got the toughest matchup on the board against jackson jacksonville's giving
03:16up two and a half yards per carry to opposing running backs and in here's woody marks there's
03:21no david montgomery to take work away from him we know he's going to catch passes out of the backfield
03:24i'm not starting him because i think he's going to average five yards per carry i don't know if
03:28he's ever really done that that's since college it's just because he's going to get north of 15
03:32touches and he's in the exact same boat as tony pollard and marshawn lloyd and even bill in your
03:38neck of the woods in dc going up against the niners that's a tough matchup but i think he'll
03:41get a decent amount of work maybe the cutoff is right there between marshawn lloyd and jacori
03:46crossing right as far as like 20 touch opportunities 15 touch opportunities go but these are still
03:51running backs that are going to have a shot at scoring a shot at breaking up some big runs
03:55they make the cut as starting fantasy running backs this week because of the lack of depth of
04:00the position all right dave so i've switched to one of my good leagues one of my good teams four
04:04and
04:04one um do you think caleb plays and if he doesn't do you like yes winston or i think he
04:11plays you do
04:11okay i think he plays and i would start him over winston and bursette and i love what we've seen
04:16out of well i've loved and i've hated what i've seen out of james because three weeks ago he looked
04:21terrible and last week and really more of like the last quarter yeah the giant started to play with
04:27some tempo the commanders obviously couldn't keep up with it we know that the commander's past defense
04:32has some problems and james winston really took advantage and now he's taking on new orleans i
04:37just talked about how that defense i don't think is particularly good that art i'm getting off the
04:41field against kyler murray last week so i think that there's going to be a real chance for james
04:46winston at home to come through for some pretty big numbers for the second week in a row and it's
04:50a
04:50chance you're taking a chance when you start james because you'll remember the first half of that
04:54game against the commanders well he looked like the quarterback that i saw three weeks ago
04:58look terrible yeah all right same he turned it around and i think the giants also i think the
05:03giants also have a running problem and i think that that's something that even though they're
05:07playing the saints i don't know if they're going to be able to come out of it with a good
05:10run game
05:10so james a low end start for me this week okay last question same team kittle or likely
05:18likely has that target volume that's just unbeatable right now so i i view him as like a top three
05:23fantasy tight end you've got your bowers wow you've got your mcbride and then you've got isaiah likely
05:27i was saying it all summer long that this dude was going to be the tight end to go and
05:31grab late
05:31and here he is a favorite check down target of james winston it's going to continue i just looked
05:36at your rank you have likely three and kittle four so it's kind of a toss they're both great yeah
05:41and you know what you'd almost rather have gone that route on draft day this is something to remember
05:46for 11 months from now when we're drafting again but when when you look at those top tight ends in
05:50round two and round three yeah they're studs but if you can go and get one or two tight ends
05:54in the
05:55middle to late rounds on draft day well you're theoretically getting studs at other positions
05:59and you're going to be just fine at tight end with one of kittle or likely you've got a trade
06:04in your
06:04future between those two guys one of them needs to go to help out another position on your team
06:08all right let's go to the phones 1-800-636-1067 you have a question for dave richards all right
06:15let me
06:16see i got him okay he's on lock nice job i think you did that right chris all right good
06:20job all right
06:20let's go to scott in silver spring scott you're on with dave richard good morning john say dave how
06:27you how you guys doing hey great what's up uh okay so on a bye week i have um i'm
06:35wondering
06:37the following four quarterbacks who i should play hurts cousins winston or brissette and then on a flex
06:44play uh what do you think about playing kamani videl in the flex thanks i i it makes me sick
06:51to think about starting kamani videl in the flex but if you have nobody better that's that's a
06:55running back who you'll be lucky if he gets eight touches and the charges offense is just such a
06:59mess right now and videl really since they've started to play him he's made like one good play
07:03per week so i guess it could be worse at flex but i would double check to see what's out
07:08there
07:09on the waiver wire at wide receiver a couple of those patriots wide receivers especially
07:13effed him chisholm the third if there's no a.j brown this week i like him a lot i think
07:17he could
07:17end up being a pretty good guy that you can literally pluck off waivers and put right near
07:21lineup winston is my favorite quarterback of the four that you mentioned what are you hearing on a.j
07:25brown uh i heard last week that he was going to start practicing and now here he is practicing
07:31okay i wonder if they they ease him in if he plays at all this week but i would imagine
07:37that by
07:37next week we'll see a.j brown back in our lives so the window to buy low on him is
07:42is effectively
07:42closed although if he goes out there and drake may has been playing great all right so drake may
07:47continues to play strong and he's starting to target brown a little bit more than he's been
07:52targeting these other pass catchers then we're talking about a.j brown going back to being a
07:55wide receiver one all right let's go to nate nate you're on with dave richard hey what's up fellas
08:02hey buddy what's up nate hey um i have two quarterbacks uh patrick mahomes and jane daniels
08:10one russia start you're starting mahomes until further notice and man great matchup against
08:16the chargers and you've got to figure that mahomes is going to continue to keep doing what he's doing
08:20and and that's just keeping it easy in this offense i i might be a little nervous about mahomes if
08:25there's no rasheed rice because that's just another element in the offense that he won't have to throw
08:29to uh then again kenneth walker the third can just make up for that because he's been catching a
08:33bunch of passes and and i love what jane daniels did last week as a runner just keep in mind
08:37he did
08:38that when the giants were in man-to-man coverage so their backs were to him it's a lot easier
08:42for
08:42quarterbacks to take off and run when they know defenders aren't looking at him 49ers play a lot
08:47of zone coverage it doesn't mean that jane daniels won't run but he won't have two long touchdown runs
08:52like he had last week and he also didn't do a i can't say he didn't do a good job
08:56throwing
08:57i can just say he didn't do a lot of throwing and i have a little bit of a hard
09:01time believing
09:01that he'll come out and put up 250 yards and two touchdowns something like that if there's no
09:06safan digs and especially with this 49ers defense kind of playing better than expected without nick
09:11bosa on that pass rush line so i do like i i can't say i love jane daniels he is
09:17top 12 but it's kind
09:18of by default all right let's go to derrick derrick you're on with dave richard hey dave um i have
09:26a
09:26flex bot question for you chris godwin courtland setland or bill from the commanders ppr league
09:33oh man that's tough and it's ppr so that really does it makes it gross i don't like any of
09:38them
09:38so what i think i'm going to do is just tell you if you have to start any of the
09:41three i would go
09:42with krosky merit but let me see if i can find some names in my rankings go see if you
09:47can get
09:47your hands on jeremy bernard from the steelers breton strange from from the jacksonville jaguars he's
09:53had eight targets each of his last two games he's a tight end he's actually pretty good as a
09:56check down guy for uh for for our boy trevor lawrence those two would be the first two that i
10:02would go
10:02and look and see if you can get off the waiver wire if you can't get them then i guess
10:06you just roll
10:06the dice with bill and hope that he breaks a couple of long runs all right we're going to try
10:12to speed
10:12around here cake's not here and i don't have the sounder that's all right speed remember speed round no
10:17small talk no shaky voice no stuttering no stammering no trade talk no multiple questions and do not
10:23question dave's fantasy advice oh there you go you found it perfect there we go all right here we go
10:29all right let's go to tom speed round go denzel boston michael wilson i would go wilson over boston
10:40all right let's go to mitch speed round go god spears or ty johnson almost spears over johnson but
10:52boy welcome to bye week hell if those are your running back choices right right you know what
10:57look do a double check to see if roshan johnson is out on your waiver wire because if deandre swift
11:01somehow misses this game roshan johnson's going to be the lead running back for the chicago bears
11:06against atlanta it's not a great matchup but it is a huge opportunity you might want to carry him
11:10all the way up until game time same thing with damian pierce although i don't i don't love the
11:15talent i don't really like recommending him i feel kind of gross even just saying his name but that's
11:20another running back that you could go and see if they're out there if he's the starter you'd grab
11:24him right so here's the thing he might be the starter and he might get 15 carries but he might
11:30turn
11:30that into four fantasy points right true pastor jock speed round go half point ppr danian pierce or
11:38marshall lloyd lloyd easy all the way high scoring game against dallas he should score again good
11:45got him let's go to pat speed round go need one of three jake ferguson chig or kenyan should be
11:55i think it's jake ferguson by default but another position where you can go to your waiver wire look
12:00for pat fryer muth look for uh brenton strange strange i had a fire muth but those two guys at
12:06tight end are better than jake ferguson let's go to charlie speed round go drake may or jordan love
12:15love them both this week they're back-to-back in my rankings give me may one spot ahead of love
12:22all right let's go to jamal speed round go chig with the deep
12:29i don't think sadiq's playing so you can't start him there you gotta go chig's the guy
12:33same recommendation he had before go back to that waiver wire and let's go to our guy john the pompa
12:40hey john hello dave hey dave uh who should i bench in my league for a lack of execution
12:48dan quinn in overtime or krista pike
12:53oh no krista pike it's going to know that name right yeah i that's the woman that was they tried
13:01to kill and yes and uh she's she survived oh right right right right all right kind of a
13:08crazy end of speed round that was a little that was a little dark that was a little dark he
13:14doesn't
13:14have his wallet everything's off one of those days all right dave are dave are you five and oh in
