This is Fantasy Football Today from CBS Sports.
What a play! Can you believe this?
I had no idea. It's time to dominate your fantasy league. Off to the races, and he stays on his feet. He's just going to go the distance. Now, here's some combination of Adam, Dave, Jamie, and Heath.
Okay, buy low, sell high. Happy hump day. Wednesday, September 23rd. You know, it's our favorite show, at least my favorite show. I love the Wednesday show. We have a great time. And Dave and Jamie and Heath are here. We're going to preview Thursday night football. Is this the beginning of the season for Drake London and Kyle Pitts? Should you be buying low basically in the next like 10 hours before the game starts tonight? And who should we sell high on? And which HN are we more worried about? Did you
skip a day?
What's that? You skipped a day.
It's Wednesday.
Oh,
yeah. You got a few hours.
It's Wednesday. It's my favorite show. You have 10 hours before the game kicks off.
I thought we were doing that Wednesday night football
thing again. I didn't know what
happened. Well, we're previewing the game, so I got really
confused. Your last two intros are your last two shows we've done together. Wow.
Oh, my gosh. You know what, Jamie? When Wednesday closes the door, Thursday opens a window. We got some news and notes for you. We'll fly through them real quick. We know Jackson Dart will be out a while. We did a bonus show on that yesterday. So if you want to listen to it, we're not going to talk about it throughout the show, but we're not going to do the big analysis today. We already did that. Tyson Bajent has a concussion. Case Keenum could start on Monday night for the Chicago Bears. Or Caleb Williams could start, I suppose. And Sam Darnold has a chance to play this week at Washington. That could be a nice matchup for Sam Darnold. Running back news, Emmitt Johnson's going to continue to get more snaps, make sure he is rostered.
J.K. Dobbins was apparently dealing with leg cramps, so we are going to expect him to play. But Nick Kosmider of The Athletic thinks that Jonah Coleman's role will continue to grow even when the backfield is healthy. We'll see what that means. Rico Dowdle is day-to-day. He could play this week against Cincinnati. Jonathan Brooks, Dave, is going to have surgery. He's going to miss about six weeks. It's weird that Chuba Hubbard only has 22 carries in two games. He does have two receiving touchdowns. They are 22nd in running back carries, even after a 34-3 win against Atlanta. I don't really know what to make of that. It's probably just statistical noise at this point, but... I was thinking, like, should I trade?
I don't have any Chuba Hubbard, unfortunately, but hypothetically, I don't even know what day it is. Should I trade Chuba Hubbard for Devon Achan? Because, like, I kind of feel like Chubbard might outperform him going forward.
But what do you think? That trade will get accepted. I think people like what they're getting out of Chuba Hubbard, but they'll still take the upside that Achan has. And I know it's been gross so far for Achan, but he's still getting a lot of work. He's going to have his games. That seems like a stretch to trade Chuba Hubbard straight up for Devon Achan. Two weeks from now, that might be one of the silliest things I've ever said. But for now, I think Achan is still getting more attention from the fantasy world. At least on the trade chart, it's definitely come out Achan ahead of Chuba. Now, if you want to put somebody with Chuba to get Achan, rather, you're going to give up Achan and you're going to get Chuba and something else.
Yeah, I wouldn't mind that one bit. There are definitely some receivers that you can pair with Chuba Hubbard to have that work out nicely for you. Okay. Tell us about the trade chart real quick. Every week for the last 16 years, I've been creating a trade chart to help people make fair trades in their league. It's not based necessarily on what I think. It's based much more on public perception, future matchups for players, just what a player's value is going forward.
