00:00Let's take a look at the Daily Fantasy slate and find out who our favorite quarterbacks are.
00:05Seems pretty clear-cut to me. I mean, I don't know how...
00:08I mean, it's going to be hard to set a lineup using Derrick Henry at 8,000,
00:11and McConkie at 6,800, and Lamar Jackson at 8,000.
00:15So maybe you would pivot and go another direction.
00:17Maybe it's Herbert at 6, but there's just such a big drop-off here for me,
00:21from Lamar to everybody else.
00:23CJ Stroud is 5,500 today.
00:26I feel like a lot of folks in Daily Fantasy have played Stroud over and over again,
00:32hoping for this-is-the-day kind of thing.
00:35I don't know that this is the day.
00:37And then, I mean, Russell Wills has got that playoff experience,
00:40maybe runs a couple, I certainly think it's possible.
00:42You're not going to play Fields, you're not going to play Mills,
00:45and you're definitely not going to play Taylor Heinecke.
00:48So those are the options there.
00:50But you've got to get real cute here, George, to pick Lamar,
00:53because if you're going to go with one of the top options at running back
00:56and wide receiver, I almost feel like if we're building the lineup today
00:59and you pick Lamar, then you have to maybe eliminate Henry from your lineup too.
01:05I don't think you can financially fit those in.
01:08I don't see it possible.
01:10I'm actually trying to do it right now.
01:12And, by the way, I'm not just picking the lowest guys.
01:15I'm still picking, like, a McConkie, guys like that.
01:20You're not going to be able to pick the guys we talked about.
01:22I'm just tier 3 or tier 4.
01:25I think I'm going to probably have to save the two grand
01:27and go with Justin Herbert, because there's no running backs.
01:32I really want Derek Henry.
01:34I think I'd be okay with Justin Herbert.
01:36The use of secondary is not good.
01:38Herbert's been playing well here.
01:40So I think that's the direction I'm going to go here.
01:42There's no doubt that Lamar is the guy I want.
01:44I'm not going to be able to fit it.
01:45I'm not.
01:46I just can't make this work here.
01:47So I'm going to go Justin Herbert just because of the other guys I want in my lineup.
01:51Yeah, and you know, by the way, I guess that's the difference with quarterback
01:54as is with the others is that the running backs, there's no guarantee of getting points.
01:58The first four names on that list, there's some sort of guarantee of something.
02:02And there's not in tier 2 and tier 3 at running back and wide receiver.
02:06So perhaps that's the goal.
02:08I probably would play Stroud and save 500 over Herbert.
02:13I think I would say – I'm not saying that he's going to have a great game,
02:15but I think that I would like to save that money
02:17and maybe even pivot to Wilson, even lower than that,
02:20because again, it's a guarantee of some fantasy points.
02:23But it would seem to me the winning lineup could come with Lamar Jackson
02:26and we'd look back on this and say, wow, what a mistake we made.
