Hello, everybody. Welcome into the Fantasy Pros Football Podcast. I'm Ryan warmly joined by Andrew Erickson.
How do Wormeli and Erickson suggest approaching trade strategy in Week 3?
We are talking some running backs to buy and sell. Also, throwing some quarterbacks in here as well. This is our typical trade show that we do every week in season Ericsson. We are splitting this, just so the listeners know. Last week this was one episode. This week, this is going to be split into two episodes. It will be running backs and quarterbacks, is one episode. wide receivers and tight ends is the other episode. So if you're looking to hit all the different positions, be sure to check out both episodes on YouTube and on Spotify and everywhere else you get your podcasts. Uh Erickson, how are you doing here through week two now of the NFL season?
I wish my fantasy teams were healthier. I think that we all can admit that, where you look up this week apparent to last week when week one, points, galore, man. Everyone was scoring so many fantasy points. There weren't nearly as many injuries. And this week, man, the matchups just like scrolling through my fantasy teams, it was brutal, man.
Which running backs should I consider buying now, especially Breece Hall?
You saw teams winning with like 70 points scored, 75 points scored total, because the There were just so many low outputs from a lot of these offenses that was tied to the injuries. And I think that bearing the lead here with what happened on Monday night football, exactly that. The New York Giants lose Jackson Dart on the first quarter on their first possession. He takes a hit to the knee, doesn't get play for the rest of the game. Now, we got reports afterwards that confirm that he has a sprained MCL and that it's Not considered season ending or anything like that, which is really, really good. But dude, the MCL is still something that's really, really tricky. And when you look at how effective Dart is as a rusher, the fact that he now has a sprained knee ligament is really, really concerning, especially with how bad Jameis Winston looked last night.
Like he looked nothing like the Jameis Winston that is the YOLO ball guy, 11 of 27 for 111. Yards and a pick. The Giants basically could do nothing offensively. They were gifted a red zone possession after Kyron Williams fumbled and they couldn't even punch it in for a touchdown. So Malik Neighbors also got banged up in this game, suffered this like arm-shoulder injury where he was getting looked at on the sideline, looked like he was in a lot of pain. Not sure if it's like his shoulder like got knocked out of the socket and they had to like pop it back in or something like that.
Why is Omarion Hampton a potential sell‑or‑hold candidate after his Week 2 performance?
So just a really bad game overall from the Giants. Giants. Really, unless Cam Scadabo is getting the ball, they didn't really do a lot. Isaiah Likely, target leader for the Giants, but way more inefficient than he was in week one when he was basically perfect with Jackson Dart as his quarterback. So those are some takeaways from the Giants side from Monday night.
Yeah, I feel like if you're looking at this game as a whole, the micro level takeaway, the short term takeaway is the injuries to the Giants. The macro level takeaway is the Rams seem to be okay. Now they were going up against a team with their backup quarterback and, you know, missing their best receiver at to a certain point in the game and all that stuff. So, you know, take it with a grain of salt, but there was some degree of hey, are the Rams maybe not Not all that in a bag of chips like we thought they were going to be over the summer. And uh and they looked a lot more like the team we kind of expected going up against the team that had looked very good in week one itself in the Giants.
