(air whooshing) - Every team, every topic, everywhere. This is Belize. (upbeat music) - Monster game for DeAndre Swift and a potential blind opportunity for Breece Hall will be running back center this week on Dynasty Trading for week five with Ryan Morgan. I am Chad Parsons here on Under The Helmet and DeAndre Swift, what a monster game. He's ultimately a frustrating player 'cause guess what? You put him in your line up and he comes up small, Roshan Johnson's gonna be a lead back and the next week he puts up almost 30 points when everyone is fading him to the moon. So monster game, he had a chunk touchdown this week and Swift looking like the Swift everyone expected from Detroit, which means a massive opportunity in the marketplace this week, Ryan. - So one thing I'll point out, all right, so Swift was a guy that I had earmarked as fuck kind of a, if you've got to share, look for an exit, right? I don't think necessarily that he's gonna become the bell cow there. There's a lot of miles to feed in that offense and there's not a lot of offensive production to feed all those miles. So this would definitely be a, if I had any more shares of Swift, I'm shopping them this week for sure, seeing what I can pivot to, seeing what I can, even get liquid back over to draft picks and then trade those draft picks back into players just because obviously everyone's interested in those or if I can get Swift over into another piece that I like better. The one thing I was looking up with Swift is his next four games, there's a buy in there. So this will be the next five weeks. They're all positive plus matchups for running back. So it's Carolina this week, which is one of, if not the best team to have a running back against. That may be slightly skewed off of the first two games being such blowouts, but it's Carolina, Jacksonville, by Washington, Arizona. And all of those are plus matchups. So yes, I'm shopping him. Yes, I think that this is a good time to sell him just 'cause I kind of earmarked, look for that opportunity. But this isn't like a, oh no, he's going against the number one defense against running backs next week, get out of him this week, make sure you do it, right? It's not at the Jets next week or something like that. - Yeah, and I would remind folks, like the mental mindset is it's difficult sometimes when you're in season, you're in the flow of setting lineups and you are gonna sell a player that just went off. I think it creates a lot of recency bias of this is what's gonna happen all the time. Swift got right and this workload and this market share he had at the backfield is going to sustain itself. And I'm gonna lose my league if I trade away DeAndre Swift. Like just to go over that there is some mental block sometimes for creating and actually going out there and exploring. Now, we're not saying self or anything. This isn't a runaway, like you said, Ryan, with the schedule coming up, it's conducive to say that he can continue to have success. Now, 30 point success or is that 15 point success? That is the thing that, do we trust this? And DeAndre Swift has been a tough to trust player throughout his career. So you need to be selective. And that's why we discuss a variety of different trades and angles where some of them might not point to him being a self. The first one is DeAndre Swift and Ajay Spears. You add a second to that and you go up to James. So that's three pieces. Spears is someone that certainly can have value mostly if Pollard goes out. But what do you think about elevating within the running back position like that? - Yes, you always want the condensed down. So if you're a strong enough team, you know, a second, let's say it's a competing second, let's say it's Spears and let's say it's Swift. I mean, James Cook is the big name asset. So usually when you're looking at a trade and you see three pieces for one, that's the way to do it for sure. And so yeah, I'm taking that absolutely. - Yeah. And one other angle I was thinking about, you know, 'cause it's super flex is a second round pick might be able to get you a starting running back as well. So really do a deep dive on your own roster to say, do I need an additional running back? Or do I feel like I'm strong and now I can see an upgrade at a spot? So that's one thing to consider where you might just want to shop that second if you're light at running back as opposed to do a deal like this. So you have multiple options at play if you go within the position. Putting two hotter names together. And this is also a Bucky Irving week. So Bucky Irving rising, Rashad White, not so much, you know, in terms of what he's doing there with Tampa. And so you have Swift and you had Bucky Irving and now you get a future first. - Yeah, especially if you're a cherry pick in the first, this is perfect. I mean, if you're a really legit like one of the top two, three teams in your league, this is, these are ancillary guys that are kind of, you know, you can turn them out on your roster. This opens up to roster spots and or remember what you can do with that first, especially. This is the week. This is the heart of Oh, no, I'm 0 and 4 or 1 and 3. I'm out of it. I'm punting, give me first, right? So I bet you can get a blue chip guy. And then also remember like, I mean, we're only four games into the season, but some of the stuff that was going in the first, especially if you talk about like a non playoff first, what were we getting in those top six picks and what have they been doing? You know, it's the type of assets that are significantly higher than Swift and Spears, or I'm sorry, Swift and Irving here, going forward, Irving, love him, love to have him on my roster. He's still a day three running back and in a time chair split committee. - Bet online is the world's most trusted betting platform and your number one source for everything football.

Bet online, the game starts here. - Yeah, one reminder about Swift. He had more points this week than he had the previous three games combined. So he's still outside the top 24 running backs in points per game on the season, despite again that massive game that was largely on folks' benches. - He also seems like an empty calorie kind of guy in the, you know, they're pulling them. He's not getting those one yard rushes. They're pulling them for another guy, et cetera. So he's got a score from, you know, 15, 20 plus yards out to get a score. If you can catch, he can move. You know, there will be opportunities. I just, I don't like his O line. I don't like how many things they're splitting between. The guy gets hurt as well. He's getting older. It's just his ceiling and his time for value. This may be the high watermark or if you want to expand it to the next week or two. You know, if he, if he puts up another game again next week against the number one team to go against for running back, you may be able to get more. So try to hit a ceiling with your trades if you don't get it. Come back next week. - Another pivot to the same sort of deal is DeAndre Swift and JK Dobbins for a future first. And a reminder about Dobbins, he's in the same kind of boat as Swift, which is he doesn't get, they're a very low high, high leverage opportunity offense. They don't get goal line. They don't throw to running backs. They have low passing volume. And so Dobbins scored from distance, you know, and had a couple big plays in the first two weeks. That faucet has shut off in the last two weeks and you've seen his fantasy production drop in kind. - One of the things that VIP had talked about in the VIP chat last week was there was a team that was four and O who was offering him, I forget the player, but he was offering him his 25 first for a player. And he's Owen Ford's an orphan he took over. And I said, rather than take that first from that competing team, can you get a first and second two years out, right? 'Cause there's so much, yeah, they're four and O now, that doesn't mean they're going to be four and O at the start of next year or where they finished next year. There's so much more variance a year from now. So I think this is a great way to compose a trade. I'm looking for a guy whose borderline playoffs may or may not make it. So there's at least a chance of not making the playoffs. If it is a strong playoff team, I might be asking for a first and second from two years out. And also these guys may be complete pumpkins two years from now. There's so much turnover in the NFL and stuff like that that yeah, they're hot through four weeks. They weren't necessarily huge names coming into the year and that first is powerful. - Last one here, let's go over DeAndre Swift for Carson Steele, a second, a third and a fourth with the two PPR for tight end added to Superflex element. - I don't know that Steele should be considered a big deal here. We can look down what he's going for and stuff like that. I can't imagine after this week, he'd be going for much maybe a third if you're lucky. But so if we take him out of there, the one thing I do like is it's two PPR tight end. So obviously that second, third and fourth, there's going to be more talent pushed down to it. In a vacuum, I would take this. I think I'd try to get some semblance of two seconds for Swift, right? So I'd rather have two seconds than a second and then steal a third and a fourth combines into a second basically. - This might be a backstop of the least you would take and that's if you really felt like he was a hot potato and we're kind of mentioning with the schedule, it's not really pointing to that. I would say the be skeptical, he scores from distance, be skeptical of the market share. He got this past week and moving pieces on this offense in general that even if the schedule looks pretty good, Swift has been one to not really sustain that. So it might come down to this week. If he underwhelms again, he's already underwhelmed folks in the first two, three weeks of the season when he was largely in lineups. So just know that there is sort of a story building aspect a lot of times to how liquid these players are or are not in the market. So definitely explore your options with Swift this week. And again, if you really don't find much interest, there is a backstop of saying you can probably re-rack this and find someone interested when they lose a running back invariably. I mean, heck, maybe Jonathan Taylor doesn't play for somebody and you can do this trade later this week. It could be a different running back that's gonna be out for a stretch and that really affects a team willing to make a move here for DeAndre Swift off of your roster. - And if you really have the time to do it, you can go look at some of those competing teams or even the two and two teams and stuff and see bye weeks are starting this week. And then the next couple of weeks, maybe put a little memo in your trade there like, "Hey, bye weeks are starting." He's at home Carolina this week at home Jacksonville next week if you need a little help here just to kind of put in their head, they might not be thinking of it. Again, you gotta put all the thought into looking for those guys and sending that offer with that note but it is something to keep in mind. - Reese Hall, the guy is following Kenny Penny here for Reese Hall, Braylon Allen, big UTH name back from the rookie draft process as being NEST. He's formed his way into more of a committee than Reese Hall owners would like. I would remind folks that Breece Hall was very good for three weeks and this past week, it was in the rain, they lost to Denver, which means it's an outlier performance, they scored nine points, it was a funky game. And then Breece Hall now, potentially a buy opportunity, but you know what? Maybe some of these are sell. So we're gonna break this down for Breece Hall but what are your thoughts on him, one of the cornerstone younger running backs yet? There's some hand reading going on right now. - When I went through, so Breece Hall prior to Sunday was projected as kind of the number one running back this week. And then when I went through and just kind of saw that game, I mean, ended up 10 to nine, the Jets lost, it's a complete throwaway game. You know, I think it was the first game since 1992 that had 60 yards passing through the air for a winning team, something like that. Like it was an outlier game. And so-- - No surprises Denver this year. - Yeah, yeah, of course. They are going to London, which is another, you know, if you're talking throwaway games or when I do like the box score, looking into it on the premium side and stuff like that, that can be a wonky game as well. But, and then also they do have, you know, Minnesota Buffalo Pittsburgh aren't necessarily the easiest run here, but he's still a top three dynasty. He's in that tier that is, you know, Bijon, Breece and Gibbs. And so, if you can get them, if the door is open, especially if you're just throwing pieces in there, what else do you want? You want DeAndre Swift, cool, what else do you want? Oh, you want this, you want that? Definitely he's a guy that I would be looking for a buyer for and if people are disappointed and/or if they're out of it and you can get that buying opportunity, absolutely. Knock on the door. What's the worst they can say no? Xplatives, Xplatives and this thing, very hurtful remarks on the comments. That's the worst case scenario. That's for what, they block you, right, right? Yeah, there's that. There also are platforms and opportunities for folks to block you, just like social media. All right, so first trade here with Breece Hall for A.J. Brown and a couple of seconds. I like the Breece side, but I think that in the vacuum, I mean, running backs in general are the hammer throws that win you championships, you know? You remember like the Jonathan Taylor season, how many of the Jonathan Taylor owners won that year? And so they have a little bit shorter careers, they burn hot, but A.J. Brown, he's getting up there, he's hurt, it may come back together, but with that old line and stuff, hurts looks terrible. And so even if he's having a great year, I just think that Breece Hall is gonna hold his value longer. I don't love throwing multiple seconds just because of what else I can do there, but yeah, in the vacuum you're getting the best asset here and you're packaging together for it. - Also for A.J. Brown, we're gonna see a little bit of crumble start to happen over the next 12 to 24 months with his profile, yet in the later 20s, you know, wide receivers of his ilk are bulletproof to some extent, but that's mostly in terms of production. We are gonna see some oil leaking from that vehicle in terms of market value. And Paul will still be, you know, like two years from now, I think he's gonna be where Jonathan Taylor is today, for example, like I think that's a better spot that you wanna be in, in general. - I think, I think another way of saying what you just said is basically the high value that you can get back for trading a guy away, Breece Hall's gonna have that level higher longer than where A.J. Brown is now. - I love how you said to say it more clearly. - Well, it, yeah. - Maybe we get out of it though, it's funny. - Hey, spaghetti's good. Everyone loves spaghetti, come on. - Yeah, the other thing is, you know, for everyone lamenting about running backs and oh my gosh, all they do is get hurt. We've got a litany of wide receivers hurt right now. It goes around, it comes around. And what I would also say is something you said in another way, which is running backs are a necessary evil. You know, get the high end running backs, whether they're injury away guys that end up vaulting to the starting roll at pivotal points in the season, or if it's just those studs that produce, you know, beyond their peers, you want impact players. And if you don't have any at running back, it does make it difficult to win. So just know that, you know, you have to grit your teeth and you have to take your shots, and at least know that there's a cross-section of running backs that if they get hurt, they're still gonna be relatively insulated within the market. - There's definitely in your dynasty maturity talent, you know, you're always getting better every year and stuff in your journey. There's a point where you reach where you look at your, you know, they call it, I don't know if I can say, roster baiting, but like you look at just, oh, look at all my pretty wide receivers. They have the longest career. I've got all the young guys. I've got this, that and the other. And then you don't end up winning championships. And so yes, it, you know, shorter harsher careers and stuff like that, but running backs really are the key to getting first place in a game that, you know, it's one week and you're out and against the best teams in your league in the playoffs. - Expressing your love can look many different ways.

You're getting quite a bit of a chances to win this trade. It's Bresall for Najee Harris, Ray Benson, and then two future firsts. - I'm actually taking the Najee and the two first. Part of that being, if you listen to kind of what I would be targeting for a second to kind of plug gaps Najee from what I've seen, I like it, you know, he's gonna, I think he'll finish as the top 24 back this year. Even though he's outside of that now, with no touchdowns on the year, and then Benson's just gravy. If you can get a second out of Benson, cool. If, you know, he pops cool, but it's just two firsts, I just hammer throws and trying to think through, okay, what am I losing from Najee to Bresall this year? If everyone stays healthy to what can I do on the clock with a first, any given year, right? So normally you look at these and you take the side that has the fewer parts, but yeah, I'll take some semblance of a similar player for the short term and two first. - Yeah, at a minimum, this looks like three firsts, you know, and you can make the argument that, you know, if you squint, if you squint, this could almost be three and a half firsts. And I just think that you can make the argument that the big three running backs right now with the age and the profile they have is, you know, they're worth multiple firsts. But I think, you know, when you go much beyond that, especially if you add someone like Harris or if you add someone like Benson or, you know, someone notable within that construct that it really does tilt over where you are taking some risk, you know, and again, you might wanna do it differently and say, I'm gonna go after a stud quarter back with Bresall, I'm gonna go after a stud wide receiver. That's fine, but if we're talking within the prism of arbitrage and running back and then getting two first, this is the type of deal to do, absolutely. 'Cause you're getting, you know, Benson might be a 25 starter and, you know, what's his upside? I don't think it's very high this year, you know, if James Cook were to go out based on the construct of what's going on in Arizona, their low high leverage opportunity team. And I think there's gonna be a split with Marjorie Marcato, but you have something in now and Najee Harris, you have two firsts, you also have Trey Benson for later, you have a lot of ways to win this trade. The only way Bresall wins this trade is if you strike out a little bit on the other side, but also Bresall has to be healthy, vibrant and absolutely cooking. And then, you know, you have a chance to win this deal. - This is, yeah, the Bresall side on this, I picture it 'cause I'm a nerd, it's like Mario 64 where you got those levels where you have to go through the multiple ring circles. So Bresall kind of has to thread the eye of a needle on three different things for it to come out on that side. And just, we don't, you know, don't have hubris that everything's gonna go your way and you're 100% right. So there's much more ways to win the trade and much more leniency on, you know, if you miss slightly, you're still gonna come out okay on the other side. - Yeah, one more here and this'll include a future first as well, so already we have Ryan's attention. It is Bresall for Brian Thomas there in Jacksonville plus a future first. - I think I'm sticking with Bresall. That would have to be a, I'm earmarking this guy for a top two or three pick. You skipped over one that I absolutely love is, 'cause I almost said this when we were looking at the Naji one where it's haul for Brooks and two first. And if you're Naji, like, I'm just thinking, what can you do? - I've got two Benson and a second to get Brooks or something like that. So now I've got Naji for the short term. I've got Brooks coming back as a young hammer and probably going to increase in value as he plays assuming he does anything. I mean, that offense looks alive now with Andy Dalton. So Brooks and two first, I love that. And just the whole idea of like, how many players are worth three first, three naked first and confidently worth three naked first? You know, I personally think that Jamir Gibbs is the number one running back in Dynasty and I'm still uncomfortable paying three first just because I know of what I'm giving up down the road. - He's in a full-blown committee, which is pretty crazy. - That's actually kind of why I like him the best is. - Yes, I know, we're not even seeing full usage, yeah. - Right, he's producing the fantasy numbers without the immense wear and tear that some other people need to produce those. - And best offense of the three, I would say. - Best O-line endeavors. - Best everything. - One thing I'll say about Brian Thomas and an update, he's on my hot list. So in the next 24 hours when you're hearing this, he'll be updated with his values that he's on the higher end success track, you know, year one for a round one wide receiver. And he just popped off. He's shown every single game a pop moment. He put up 20 plus points this past week and it's not a fluke, you know. He's absolutely producing and earning the targets, producing on the targets. And so Brian Thomas, top 24 right now. And so I would just point out, again, I wouldn't do this trade, but just know it's closer than it would have been. You know, I mean, this is a non-starter if you offer this trade for Breeze Hall in August. It's absolutely a starter, you know, and something that, again, if you're not contending and you're like, oh, I got to take the wide receiver in the first, not necessarily, you know, with Breeze Hall. And I do think you can probably aim higher than this, but just know, you know, after an opening month, you know, players sit on successor or non-success tracks, you know, based on, you know, what their previous populations were, they're gonna get updated this time of year right now in firm with a deep scrubbing of their profile for UTH player values. - And for me, though, I don't know that I would give up. If I think it's going to be somewhere in an average first, 106, 107, I don't know that I'd give him up for Brian Thomas. I do agree, he looks like a pro out there with what they have around him. Like, he's making enough plays. He's young, he's four games into his career. That's great. I just don't see that he's gonna have the ceiling of a, you know, what I see out of neighbors or Marvin Harrison Jr. or something like that. So where I think the success track for Brian Thomas could be okay, you're somewhere between finishing wide receiver 15 to 30 every year, right? Not necessarily top five, if that makes sense. - Yep. All right, last player here, we have Kyle Pitts. And he is gonna be a focal point player, especially in your premium formats, getting moved or at least discussed upon. There's gonna be a faction that believe still and, oh man, they're just misusing them. Ah, it's Arthur Smith, what are you gonna do? And there's others that are gonna say that, you know, this is a continuation of what we have not seen from Kyle Pitts pretty much since his rookie season there. Just in general, where do you stand, Ryan, on Kyle Pitts, a very mercurial profile at this point? - So the argument for Kyle Pitts is he's the highest drafted tight end ever. He had that year one breakout. It looks like he's not being used all that great right now. And just like, you know, Mark Andrews and stuff like that. If your box score scouting fantasy, he's killing you. Full disclosure, I sold my last remaining share of him last week, got up to Anthony Richardson with it. That looks great in how in sight, doesn't it? But he's a guy that I'm earmarking for getting out on. However, the kids 23 tight end can take a while, you know, wait till he gets on his, I mean, look at like, even David and Joker, who wasn't as talented or draft as high or anything like that. It wasn't till he got his second contract that they started kind of using them. He started to kind of pop, right? - How about Eric Heberon? Eric Heberon was a bust in Detroit. He ends up having some good days. I think it was in Indianapolis. - Evan Ingram, I mean, any of these guys with the draft pedigree and stuff like that. So you'd have to find someone who's a believer and still get enough value for him for me to say sell him. I think he might be a guy that you just kind of tuck away and wait for another year or another, you know, time where he does pop. Maybe if there's some injuries around him, London goes down or something like that. He has a better sell time. I just, you're coming off a game of zero. And I think you put up another zero this year. Like, these aren't-- - We might be applying. Again, I'm not alluding to the fact that you have to sell him. I'm saying that we're gonna analyze some of these trades and he actually might be a buy. - Shopify is the global commerce platform that helps you sell at every stage of your business.

Okay, he's sure, let's analyze, let's do it. That's what we're here for. - You're like, sure, let's see how this goes. All right, first one in two PPR here, we got Kyle Pitts for Aladdin and Conkey. - I think he's stuck with Pitts. - Yeah, I think so too. Again, when in doubt, in formats like that, play the premium, right? And unless it's a hammer throw at another position, but Conkey's look pretty good. So I'm not gonna discount him there, but to say that he's not similar to many wide receivers that you wouldn't have to give up Pitts. And like, I will just agree with what you said, which is, I mean, he's very young still, and Titan has a really long runway. And typically the peak window is 25 to 30 years old. Pitts is still under that, he came in baby young. And I think that David Nijoku comp in some ways is applicable here of just saying, sometimes they come in and they need more, and it takes a while, and sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes guys look the part, but that is definitely not the norm. Just like quarterback, quarterback year one, a lot of times it's gonna look very rough, even if it doesn't look rough later. - And in two PPR, that is the premium position is Titan. So yes, at this point, I would say, if he is that cheap, I would buy him again. McConkie, I'm pretty sure they're gonna add to the receiver core after this year. And he again, has looked good, don't get me wrong. I like him, I like having him, that's great. But I don't know that he is the guy that if you're trying to get all the way up to that Hall of Fame, Mike Evans, Guy in his first year or something like that, I don't know that he's that profile. - Yep, next one is Kyle Pitts and a second, Ford, Jameson Williams, and a first, same thing to PPR. - I like this a lot better than the lad McConkie one. Mind you, you're getting my attention with a first. And again, two PPR are first more valuable than Superflex, which is more valuable than standard. So that first can get you a lot of things. So, and then I'm not the hugest Jameson Williams fan, but can I do Jameson Williams in the second for another first? And now suddenly I've turned, you know, just hoarding some high draft capital and stuff like that. So I would probably take Jameson Williams in the first because I can do more with it today than I can with Pitts in a second. - I agree. James Williams, you know, he's gonna pop many weeks, even if he doesn't have a monster game, he's gonna pop optically, you know, with a chunk play, that offense is gonna provide a lot of opportunities, even if it's, you know, even if it's more best ball or poppy than anything that's consistent. And so, yeah, I think-- - Combined total scoring this last week was 71 on that game, I think. So yeah, if you're, and 42 or something was put up by the Lions, like if you're just a body in that offense that gets any requisite type of targets, yes, you're gonna look good. - And that's why you stash wide receivers and you're like, hey, Tim Patrick, Kaleef Raymond, like all these guys, you never know what happens if there's an injury or two and all of a sudden, you know, you're spotlighting players that are from the waiver wire and you're like, I feel pretty good about this, you know, with lies and injuries going on. So consider those types of elements deeper down as well. - The other thing though, is you kind of see as we talk through this and we really go into it deeper on the premium side, but this is a taste of it. You know, we're getting points out of people and projecting what forward. So like the pop guy that you're selling, you said Pits is a dip guy, obviously. Can you use Swift to get over to Pits in a premium format or something like that? Just kind of combining these types of players, you know, where this guy's getting zeroes. We could talk about Mark Andrews on the premium side. That's gotta be frustrating for people, but just, as the price keeps getting lower and lower, just keep knocking on that door going, I'll give you this. And they're probably not getting a ton of offers for them, I would guess so. - Yeah, last one here is within two PPR, we got Kyle Pits for Mark Andrews in a second. - I think I'll take Andrews in a second. - Yeah, I would take it pretty easily. Because Andrews has built up along, like you can say they're both having, you know, down versus expectations, but Andrews has been there done that for years, and we kind of know what we have. Pits to some degree is still a question mark of hoping he gets to there. Even someone like David Najoku has not gotten all the way to the promised land of where you would like a tight end to go if you're banking on him for the long perspective. So bouncing back or growing into something, then Andrews, again, I mean, like every single week, it seems like there's a new little wrinkle of like, huh, didn't know that was a way to ski Mark Andrews out of the game, but I guess it is. - And you're getting the second round pick, which is not insignificant here for your troubles. So I would definitely, I mean, I would take Andrews straight up. I know some people would not, but that pick to me is just gravy. - I can do a lot more with Jameson Williams on the first right now than I can with Andrews is why I wouldn't. And I think I'm probably a little more pessimistic on Andrews. I do think he will bounce back. I don't know if this is the year for him type thing. So, and maybe someone's got to get hurt on that offense, but yeah, Andrews in non-premium, where I have them like I've got other options, Jake Ferguson and stuff that I'm, Andrews is sitting on my bench in my starting lineups until I start seeing a little more out of them. - Yep, no, I agreed on that part. I want to give a shout out, I missed it last week, but a shout out to the UTH Bestball Contest winner of the week, actually someone I know, shout out to Jason Howard over there in Phoenix. I got to do a meet up with him earlier this year, and hopefully he's gotten some good tacos for me. And he ends up having a monster week, Jordan loved back in his lineup. He's got Jake Ferguson. I think that's going to be a key part to a team finishing well or winning in this contest. He took a shout out Malik Neighbors, Brian Thomas. He has the aforementioned Jameson Williams that hammer throw. And he got a monster performance out of Mr. Derek Henry, also Chase Brown, you know, in that ancillary running back effort, we're actually going to talk about some ancillary running backs on the UTH premium show on Dynasty Trading this week with Ryan Morgan. And so-- - Perfection, he had the perfect-- - Perfection on there buddy. - Professional Segway. And he had, so Jason had the perfect storm this week. He takes down the contest. He's got a rough start, but again, this is how you move up in the contest. You have a monster performance like he did. We have the top of the Notables here, Tim Torches, around number 10 overall in the contest. So he is the top, I have had quarterback woes to the highest degree I've ever had in this contest. So I am languishing right now. I need a lot of help. And then Jamie, I believe it's Jamie Paulos, they're in the number one spot. Not comfortably, it's highly contested, but Jamie is up a top after the opening month of the contest. Thanks to my fancy league, as always, for hosting this on an annual basis. And always a fun thing versus a salary cap to try to go against some of the fiercest competition for heme building that we have here in the UTH population of super fans VIPs and also guys like Ryan Morgan, Tim Torches, Katie Slower, Jordan McNair, and myself in the contest on an annual basis. And again, I'll-- - Just look at this. The top score, Jamie P. That's Will Levis and Bryce Young. I mean-- - Hey, yo. - You can overcome in best ball. I think that's-- - You really do, I guess. Yeah, no kidding. - That is the game. You absolutely kidding. Yeah, I fell into the Bryce Young. Bryce Young, cheap cost rabbit hole as well this year that is providing zero fruit that is dying on the vine. Ants and vermin have eaten all the potential fruit there. Mentioned what's gonna be covered, we're gonna go into a deep dive on the Chiefs. Ryan and I on the premium side. So you're gonna get to hear a little bit about Patrick Mahomes. You're gonna be here about the backfield, the fallout from Richie Rice, Travis Kelsey. All of that is gonna be on the premium side as well as some other things dynasty trading wise you're gonna want to know for week five. So you can sign up General Manager Plus there and get access to that show and that content on a weekly basis. And again, for Ryan Morgan, you can hear his content. He puts out a couple of trading shows and moves to make and analysis as we go through later parts of the week as well. And you get things like film notes from myself on every single game. I distill it down to the information you need to know coming out of the game, running back round up, all of those good things, utilization for the passing games. And such on the premium side. So you get hundreds of shows every single year and especially important in season as you're trying to make your best moves and best analysis before we get the chaos that is now week five coming up for our dynasty themes. So for Ryan Morgan, myself Chad Parsons, until next time, never settle, refused to be average, keep building those dynasties. (upbeat music) - Bingo. - All right, Phil, we're recording now. So it's live. Go ahead, pick on me the way that you want to. - Did I say that? I would say that to my son, man. I mean, come on, man. - Just go. - This isn't CBS. - All right, be quiet for a few seconds. Why would people want to listen to the Sims complete podcast? Well, a couple of things. One, if you like to see sons pick on their father, this might be the place. If you want to see a place where the father just kicks the (beep) out of his son, this would be the place. What do you like about it, Matt? - Ditto. Father, son, dynamic duo talking about the game of football that we love and share and appreciate together. And hey, it's an extension of what we did growing up. I was able to watch my father play football, then obviously watch him as a broadcaster. And then he taught me the game of football and share the wisdom that he learned throughout his playing career. And hey, sometimes we're full of it and sometimes we actually know a thing or two. - Well, we do do a lot of research. At least I do. You're a little spotty, but you hang in there. It's fun, I love doing this and it's been awesome. - Sims complete, check us out. Wherever your podcasts are available on the Believe Network, appreciate it. See ya.
