Intro 00:05
You’re listening to the good old boys fantasy football podcast. Now here’s your host, Kevin, Derek and Alex.

Derek 00:11
Alrighty. Welcome, and ladies and gentlemen to another episode of the good old boys fantasy football Podcast. I am Derek and I am joined as always, by your co hosts, Kevin and Alex. We’ve also got a special guest Ernest from Into the Lab Pod will be joining us today and let’s go ahead and get right on into the show. We do have the Dallas Cowboys as the team of the week, and it’s been hinted at that they’ve got a new guy down there that got his bag Dak Prescott and the Cowboys have agreed to a four year $160 million deal with 125 million of it guaranteed. And we’re gonna actually start a little bit different with the Cowboys. Instead of starting in the running back room where we always do we’re gonna start with the quarterback Dak Prescott who in an injury shortened season still finished 33rd in the league last year, fantasy ranking 151 receptions, 222 attempts, 1856 yards, nine passing touchdowns, four interceptions, and an additional three are three rushing touchdowns on the ground. Guys, your thoughts on Dak Prescott,

Dak Prescott QB Dallas Cowboys 2021

Kevin 01:18
Jerry Jones realized what he had by not having it last year. These quarterbacks are hard to find there’s only 32 spots and really the 32 starting spots, only about 20 are worth a damn. And then you get into like the top 12. And that’s where it is Dak Prescott is neat. There’s no question Dak Prescott is a top 10 quarterback in this league. Now, where you start getting into some debate is is the top six is the top five visie top four. There, there’s some things to be shuffled around there. But what I will tell you is this Dak Prescott loves being in Dallas. And it is clear that whether it was Jerry or Stephen, putting Jerry in an armbar and sang sign this man sign this man, it didn’t matter it got done. This first year contracts crazy like $75 million in year one. And

Alex 02:18
if Dak Prescott throws for 4000 yards next year with this $75 million that he’s gonna make in 21. If he throws for 4000 yards, that works out to $18,750 per yard thrown. So you can just imagine him putting it up there and counting his money on the way to the bank as he that is insane.

Kevin 02:45
Absolutely. And the thing is, it’s actually a pretty team friendly deal, guys, he is like looking at it. So his cap number for 2021 is is $22.2 million. That’s extremely manageable. And how the NFL is is with quarterbacks you getting into 2022, and it jumps up to 33.2. So a little bit higher, but then you’re still floating right around where the franchise tag is going to be anyway. So you’re getting two years for the for the price, right of a franchise here, in a sense, so that works out, it’s years, three and four, where it gets pretty damn pricey, 44.2 and 47.2. But in 2024, the Cowboys would actually save $20.8 million by cutting Dak Prescott, if it’s not panning out. So it’s a four year contract extension. It’s really kind of a five year deal if you’re looking at it, you know by the numbers, but it’s a four year contract extension. And after the first two years, the Cowboys are almost completely in the clear, like Dec gets his money up front. They managed it so that way it wasn’t a huge hit on their cap space. And then towards the back end of that deal when the real money kicks in. If he hasn’t earned it, the Cowboys are able to move on with no real money lost other than you just sunk a bunch of money into a quarterback that didn’t pan out but that is the NFL that stuff happens. But aside from that, I love this. I like Dak Prescott a lot. I like him with this offense. I like his rapport with Amari Cooper. I like his rapport with Michael Gallup. I think the limited time that we saw him with CeeDee Lamb. You can see the beginnings of that report. Obviously deck went down in week five, and so it kind of stunted some of that but with how this offseason is seemingly going to be a little bit more wide open. Not so many restrictions. I expect city lamps to get right into the thick of things. And obviously you still have your workhorse back in right behind them. So this is this is a very good deal all the way around and what it does It allows the Cowboys to still look at the defensive side of the ball. So that way they can be more competitive and not expect everything to come off a duck’s right arm. And then maybe just a tweak here there on the offensive line get a little bit younger, get a little bit healthier, guys that, you know, don’t quite have the injury issues. But overall, I think by them locking Dak Prescott up, the Cowboys are at the top of the NFC East. Take that for what you will. But they’re in the driver’s seat here for a little bit.

Alex 05:31
The Cowboys weren’t very good without Dak Prescott. I mean, that was clearly evident that that team was just not the same. Now that’s not saying that they were great with him. They were good. They weren’t winning all that much. I mean, it was two and three in his five games, but they were competitive in those games, the other games, I mean, yikes, it was bad. It was bad football to watch it to the point where it was like, you kinda almost felt bad for them, which is that’s hard for me to say, to feel bad for the Cowboys, because I don’t know that there’s much more that I take kind of private and joy in is watching the Cowboys struggle. So I think I think this was obviously a necessary move for the Cowboys to get Dak Prescott locked up, because that’s their path forward, right is this guy that they’ve already got when you’ve already got him in house, keep him in house. And it’s not like there’s bad blood between anybody he wanted to be in Dallas, Dallas needs him to be competitive. And it was nice to see the two sides come together in what is a pretty awful business when it comes to the NFL. So obviously, you know, with what what happened last year, he was lightening. I mean, he was he was great fantasy wise. He threw for us, you know, up at 1800 yards through five games, not even five full games. And, you know, he touchdowns where he had nine touchdowns through those games. So like he was he was doing well, Kevin can attest to this, he was light and his team on fire. And then when when that went down, that was kind of the end of it for a lot of folks, or it was it was scramble mode, for sure. For a lot of people who were who were counting on, on that production. So this makes sense for the Cowboys, it makes sense for Dak. Because, you know, I hate to say it, but he is you know, damaged goods at this point. And that’s, that’s not a fun label to have on you. Right, wrong or indifferent. But who was gonna, you know, go out and take that much of a risk on him. And the Cowboys would have been silly to let somebody even take a shot at it. So it was good for Dallas good for Dak. And I kind of, you know, with all the weapons that he has down there, I would expect to see that same trajectory that he was on last year. Once he’s back healthy and playing and that that’s there’s no reason for me to believe that it would be anything different.

Ernest 08:02
There are so many things to dissect with this contract when it comes to the Dallas Cowboys that I want to hit on. But I’m trying to refrain from going off on for 30 minutes on this contract. But let’s let’s focus on some of the big things that you guys have hit and what we what we’re missing. So let’s go over what we’re missing, right. This locks up the Big Three of Dallas and Cooper, Zeke and Dak. For the next three years, we get to see them all together to 2023. And the cool thing about it is that it basically says Dallas is investing in Dak, Dak is investing in Dallas with the type of contract they signed together. And that Zeke and Amari Cooper not exactly the future in Dallas, they are they’re a little more fluid now with how they can release them. Because their contract stability ends in 2023, where Dak is further down the line. That cap room is going to be interesting to see if the NFL continues to projectory on how they can fill a roster with having such a huge cap hit from Dak in the beginning. So that’s gonna be something to keep an eye on on those early reactions, oh, the cap is going up or the cap limit has gone down that can be really big for the Cowboys going forward to fill up the defense because as you all know, and we know, a top five quarterback is great as I do believe Dak Prescott is a top five quarterback, it’s having a top 10 defense to keep the foundation of the team and have them be a contender. That’s been the problem in Dallas for years decades even going back to Tony Romo. You can’t feel that whenever you feel the defensive team in Dallas, they actually do really well they have 13 312 and four seasons, they just don’t want in the playoffs. And so with Dak you had that where you actually want to play off game, and you’ve seen that you can get past the first round or pass the wild card, whatever it was for Dallas. You know you don’t reminisce on the bad times for when you know it was a catch and you know, but anyways, we’re not even gonna go there. So let’s just let’s just not talk Dallas Cowboys playoffs but um, yep, so you lock up a core right with Blake Jarwin in CeeDee Lamb also work in a very team friendly deals to your offensive set in place. Now I think for Dallas, it’s revamping that offensive line through the draft that you’re gonna have to do all over again, because their injuries and retirements, you’ve got to protect deck, you’ve got to give them the time, he leads the he leads the league right above Patrick Mahomes in airtime when he gets more than three seconds in the pocket. That’s huge to know if you’re Dallas, that means rpos play action, having time beyond behind the line makes Dak successful, which makes Dallas successful. So I think that’s going to be key as the offensive line and then just making sure your defenses stout and can stay top 10. But fantastic deal. I think Kevin hit the nail on the head. I think he said earlier that they have a $20 million gap that they get back in 2025. If for some reason this goes south, right. If this does not work out, this was the wrong call. You can trade him cut him. You don’t get a huge penalty on you. It’s reversible. Yeah, I know. We’re talking four years in the future. And God knows where we’re going to be. But you know, at the same time, Dallas has a chance to revamp itself. We saw what happened with Andy Dalton last year, which I think Kevin was saying he thinks Ryan Fitzpatrick going to Denver. joke’s on you. It’s gonna be Andy Dalton. And and, and so to

Alex 11:17
put that on me. Bobby, Ricky Bobby,

Ernest 11:25
he’s your dandy dog guys. So um, good luck with that. But you know, dakka dakka x Tech’s got the arm? Alex, you’re right. If he throws 4000 yards, I like the contract even more, because it just shows that he can. He can keep that offensive float. But I don’t think he does. And we don’t want him to in Dallas. And we’ll talk a little bit more about that fantasy wise. In just a second.

Alex 11:48
I will say that one other thing too, with with that contract and his play last year, it was predicated on just how bad that defense was that it was necessary for him to be throwing for almost 2000 yards in five, four and a half games, whatever it was. So

Kevin 12:05
he was the MVP of the league through week eight last year, and he only played plus games, right? so sure.

Ernest 12:14
Yeah. But I mean, if you think about it, I think there was there was two games they started off down. 21 nothing. Like you just can’t let that happen. Now on two of those games, oh, you can really blame Zeke, he had four fumbles in three games and and on their side of the field that was really, really tough for a defense to hold par You know, when you’re when that happens. But you know, even at like, what, two and six midway they were still like number one in the NFC East, the east, just a terrible version. So I mean, you know, I don’t see, you know, I’m not gonna sit here and tell you the Dallas Cowboys are contenders. The number one in the NFL. Nobody’s gonna say that right now. But Dak Prescott definitely is the right direction for solidifying a quarterback who has a top tier talent. So good job.

Derek 12:58
And one of the other things to keep in mind as well. Yeah, there was a lot of things out there on both Twitter and through the national media there as well, that was really talking about the term the length of this deal. But the thing that that was really interesting to me that stood out was the fact that while Dak gets a lot of money up front on that, and it’s a ton of money guaranteed, it actually saved the Cowboys about $15 million a year and this year in salary cap issues. And a team that was going into that went into this offseason facing a very, you know, a lot of salary cap issues heading into it, save them $15 million hit this year by not having to tag him. So there’s some interesting things there as well. But that kind of leads us into, you know, the discussion around some of the fantasy side of things. So what do you guys think in Dak outlook is here for 2021 fantasy?

Ernest 13:53
Before we jump into it, though, I forgot this part. I meant to talk about this. So Dak Prescott‘s deal does wonders, right? We say for 116. We’re like, gosh, I got to pay him 44,000,000 1 year and 47 million another year. But if we think about it, it was just a few years ago with Jared Goff that we thought for 134 was outrageous. We guys remember we’re like, why would you pay a quarterback $30 million a year it makes no sense. And then now we’re like, that’s like a deal. So we could think maybe when Lamar Jackson gets to do Kyler Murray‘s getting his deal. All days, they may be in the Upper 40 millions. Now all of a sudden Dak Prescott looks like a bargain. I think maybe that’s what the Cowboys are holding hopes for as well. And das cat dex campus and hey, look, we’re doing your solid trust me that it’s going to be going up for quarterbacks and so as a dual threat option, top five in my opinion, I think Dallas and Dak both got a great deal out of all of it and that just want to throw that in there. Derek just for comparison of Goff to Prescott.

Derek 14:52
I like it. Although the Rams I think in hindsight, are looking back wishing that they would have done that deal. Hopefully that pans out better for your Cowboys and, and for Dak here,

Ernest 15:03
we saw Gurley Goff and now we’re seeing the Zeke trend a little bit so I’m really hoping Prescott doesn’t follow that ratio there.

Derek 15:09
Yeah, it’s an interesting, interesting curve there. But guys, what are your thoughts?

Kevin 15:17
I can’t wait to fire off about Zeke. Got it. Um Dak Prescott is gonna be a top five fantasy quarterback. I think he’s arguably going to be top three. And a large part of that is the Cowboys defense isn’t going to magically revamp itself right like this is going to be a couple a season or two in the making for that defense to climb out of kind of being ranked 26th up to 16th 15th 13th even to really make that competitive and keep the offense in so I don’t know the Dak is going to come out at the exact same pace he had last year in the first four plus games. But I do expect it to be another strong performance for jack Dak Prescott. I think he has a plethora of great weapons around him. Whether it’s scholtz whether it’s jarwin obviously Lamb gout Cooper, Zeke Tony Pollard like it there’s not there’s not a fantasy football player who is worth their their weight that couldn’t name every starting fantasy implicated player for the Cowboys, right? All their skill position players. So that tells you how relevant they are. Mike McCarthy loves to throw the football Kellen Moore loves to throw the football so you’re still going to see somewhere in the neighborhood of a 63 to 65% Pass run ratio in this cowboys offense. I think all that leads towards it. The touchdowns will come I do think he touches over 4000 yards this season, guys. So you’ll see that bonus come in, as Alex is counting the money for every area that Prescott throws towards the end of the season. But I think I think he’s a guy. Like I said top five fancy quarterback and he might be drafted just outside of that. People a little weary about the injury depending on what news we get once we hit camp and the preseason, but he’s gonna go in the top seven or eight regardless, no matter how you split hairs are kind of pan that out. So there’s not necessarily any benefit in in trying to sandbag it. If you think he’s your guy, you go grab him. If he’s super flex League, you’re taking him in the second round, most likely you might be able to see him slip into the third in some super flex leagues just depending on how it’s going. But most likely you’re looking second round, redraft. You’re looking somewhere probably probably around that sixth round, you’ll kind of have mahomes. And I’m I’m thinking Allen go pretty stinking early, and then you’ll see that gap. But Dak Prescott is definitely going to be right at the beginning of that second wave of quarterbacks between Aaron Rodgers Deshaun Watson Russell Wilson Dak Prescott,

Alex 18:08
you said top three. And I was trying to talk myself into it and and I think the reason why I can see Dak Prescott in that top three discussion is because of the next point you made, which is all of the weapons that surround Dak Prescott and and I know that, you know, Ernest, He said that you don’t want them to throw for 4000 years, he I think he’s going to have to throw for 4000 yards, right in order to in order to have any semblance of success down there. And let’s be real, you know, they’re very fortunate that they play in that NFC East because it’s it’s not in a good shape right now. So the Cowboys making sure that they’ve at least got there’s their kind of their house in order a little bit, gives them a leg up already, you know that all those other teams are are scrambling right now in terms of trying to put together an on field product. So I can see top three. And I remember, you know, one of the points that I made a lot last year, going into draft season was there were teams that you just wanted a piece of that offense, whatever that was, you wanted a piece of that offense, building your fantasy roster, the Cowboys are still one of those teams now that Dak Prescott is going to be back you’re going to want a piece of that offense somewhere because that offense is going to be moving the ball. And that’s gonna that’s going to translate to your fantasy success. So I could see top three happening for sure top five, and if he comes out, you know, and everything checks out and he can hit the ground running week one, which I’m not sure that that’s even the prognosis yet. But if he can be ready to go week one, that is going to spell some some pretty good success for Dak. And the rest of that offense because again, like you said, Kevin, any fantasy player that knows their weight, they know all of the weapons that are around there in Dallas and that’s a good thing for Dak which in turn, you know is a good thing for the Cowboys.

Ernest 20:05
I say we don’t i don’t want Dak Prescott throwing over 4000 because that statistically means that the defense is bought

Alex 20:14
from behind yeah it’s not good.

Ernest 20:17
So you want Dak Prescott throwing 36 to 3800 yards because advanced that show your defense would be top 10 to 20 so you want you want to have that kind of range for your quarterback but realistically for next season if Dallas has a has a 22nd best defense in the league which I should say probably like the 10th worst right then Dak probably throwing for 4000 my stats for him though that have projected right now with the with the roster they have with projected draft picks and what stats they bring 3800 yards through the air 65% completion, eight interceptions 30 touchdowns that averages out to quarterback to three on the year which for me is not impossible. And if you think it’s more than I’d say he’s a solid quarterback. Well, I mean obviously QB one is I’m not saying that but second best quarterback in the league. And and that’s that’s almost Patty mahomes numbers. So I mean, that’s that’s really dangerous to say I think he’s gonna be the best quarterback next year coming off the injury so I’m not gonna say it but I mean, stats Don’t lie. numbers don’t lie. He’s got such a high reach. If you’re sitting in the draft and you’re 215 to 222 you’re really debating Dak Prescott. And that’s where I say is your reach like that’s my reach guy. If he’s there because I’m a homer I’m probably gonna take them because I think he’s gonna lead me to a championship so that’s at least in fantasy perspective, so that at least that’s a that’s a realistic thought. But um, you know, I’m realistic Cowboys fan I’m not one of those guys that said we’re gonna win it every year so I realistically understand what’s going on with the field and the numbers so at least fantasy wise Dak and get me a ship’s at least at least he can do that. So but yeah, so if you’re, if you’re Dak Prescott, if you’re if you are going up their numbers, that means your defense is just bad. But you’re absolutely right Philadelphia searching for identity at this point. Washington looking for a quarterback at New York is really kind of the other team that has some stuff together because they got their defense going a little bit and then they have Danny dimes who some people called Danny two nickels and then whatever’s happening was sake one so I mean with with with that with that division is almost patriot like the Patriots always seem to find a way back when Tom Brady was there to just win the division and that was really kind of their forte get those six wins, guaranteed and go from there when for outside and you’re in and you have Tom Brady. I wish I could say that about Dak Prescott that if we’re in we got Dak Prescott, maybe one day so we’ll have to see. But that’s when it comes to Dak Prescott, I think QB five, six is his low point. I think it’s what that defense i think is guaranteed. He’ll be top five.

Derek 22:53
I like it. Lots of lots of kind of numbers there and everybody having a little bit different kind of landing spot as far as where his finish goes. But I’m gonna put everybody on the spot here. Rank rank Dak Prescott in the quarterbacks ahead of him coming in. So who’s your 123 until you get to deck

Kevin 23:09
Mahomes Allen Prescott.

Derek 23:10
What about you, Alex?

Alex 23:12
I Mahomes Allen? Rodgers. Prescott. Yeah,

Ernest 23:21
this is Yeah, this is fantasy, right? Not just

Derek 23:24
just regular old fantasy.

Ernest 23:26
One a Mahomes. One B Prescott.

Derek 23:29
Okay. So that’s a that’s some pretty interesting ranges there. And it actually kind of moved up there. As you guys were, we’re ranking that because when you guys are going through this discussion, there was a little bit, a lot of talk around kind of that 6/7 Mark somewhere in there. But going through it everybody kind of had him top five or better. So just kind of an interesting plot.

Alex 23:49
But that that’s that’s kind of that six seven mark that Kevin was getting at and I definitely co signed to this thought process is because of the injury. Right? It’s because of the the risk that you’re going to have to take to spend that kind of capital on a on a player that’s coming off a pretty horrific injury.

Kevin 24:09
Yeah. And that’s also where you could probably get them in a lot of leagues right drafting him there because while I said mahomes Allen Prescott Rodgers is right behind there. And then you still have Deshaun Watson, you have Russell Wilson, you have everybody’s darling in Justin Herbert from last summer, right on top of Kyler and everything that he was able to do for the first half. He faded a little bit, but you’d figure he’s going to get stronger. Trevor Lawrence is going to be drafted. Crazy. Hi, Joe Burrow did great things for, you know, the the time that he was in so I guess that’s where I started with that. Like, I haven’t finishing top three. I see him drafted top eight. And that’s really kind of where your bargain is on him right if you can get him 678 and catch him in the middle of that second run and not have to grab him at the top of that second round maybe that’s just the difference in around right maybe you’re able to fill in another skill position player in you know the round right before it if you’re on the swing on one end or the other just depending on how it shook out and do it that way but let last note here for Prescott and then I know we have a bunch of other players to dive into but the Cowboys schedule this year is is fairly favorable guys. So the Cowboys play the AFC West and the NFC South. So you get Tampa Bay which is tough, right? I expect the cowboys and chiefs game to be a Sunday Night Football game. If not ESPN is going to grab it right up Monday night game so one of the other that’ll be a primetime game for sure. But outside of that, look these teams in their secondary so just struggled so the Giants the secondaries actually the best part of that team so okay there’s a minus Eagles were up and down right the secondary was injured a lot last year so we’ll call that on neutral Washington secondary struggled Atlanta’s secondary was terrible. Carolina secondary was nothing to write home about their strength was up front. It wasn’t the back end of that defense. It was the front end. Denver secondary is always up in the air. Boy days gone. They have Callahan and

Alex 26:22
wait and Denver has a secondary

Kevin 26:26
Exactly. The Raiders Las Vegas Raiders right when they were getting beat last year, they were getting beat deep and over the top. So there’s something Kansas City, Kansas City secondary. It looked like a little leaky, right, we saw that towards different spots in the season and Patrick Mahomes factor bails them out. I expect that to be in contention for Game of the Year is what I’m expecting out of this game and they haven’t even laced up their cleats yet. chargers that’ll be a good game. I think the Chargers probably get over but then Minnesota secondary hasn’t been very good. Alex you covered them when you’re in North Dakota so you’re well aware of that. New Orleans secondary has been okay, but how different do they look without Drew Brees? They’re going to be trailing a lot more so they’re gonna have to get you know, cheap guys up front you’re trying to get to the quarterback or, and everything else. Tampa Bay, who knows they started out soft, got really good. And then I thought they were gonna falter and then turn it around and kicked it in high gear for the playoffs and won the Super Bowl. So all I’m saying is the schedule for all things considered, is actually pretty favorable for the Cowboys. There’s some tough games in there, but it’s the NFL, you don’t get a cakewalk for 16 games. So more times than not. I’m lean on the side of the offense. That’s how the rules are slanted in the NFL right now. And I think this spells a lot of offensive success for the Cowboys, provided that Zeke holds on to the football Dak doesn’t throw it to the other team and the offensive line can play penalty free in the trenches.

Ezekiel Elliott RB Dallas Cowboys 2021

Alex 28:04
Can we talk about Zeke now?

Derek 28:06
Let’s go ahead and head over to my boy deck. Running back room time it is Ezekiel Elliot last year finished Rb 11 244 rushing attempts, 979 yards, six rushing touchdowns. 52 interceptions on 71 targets for 338 through the air and two additional touchdowns through the air. So guys your thoughts on Zeke Elliott?

Kevin 28:32
Zeke was RB two last year before Dak went down. After that he really started pressing he had issues holding on to the football. Some would say because he was trying to do too much right. This is what happens in football when you play outside of yourself. It is a team game and when you play outside of yourself mistakes happen for Zeke, he got a case of the fumbles and teams started keying in on that and every time he would start to go down you’d see teams just jump in and try and strip it punch it. Everything else and it worked for a little while. McCarthy had to sit him down and let Pollard get some pretty good run in a couple different games to help Zeke kind of get his head right. And towards the end of the season. Zeke was looking better than he did in the middle. Now he was not the first quarter of the season zekiel Elliott, but by that time the offensive line had been ravaged with injuries. The Cowboys had started four different quarterbacks at that point in the season. And he kind of realized what his role was to try and get that team into the playoffs. And he played much better. All that being said zekiel Elliott will be the bargain of the draft in 2021. Zeke Elliott will still finish in the top three. So you go from 11 up to three. He will be over 1000 yards rushing he will have over eight rushing touchdowns. Add in another three receiving touchdowns, money in the bank. guy’s money in the bank. Zeke is there Do not give up on him. Yes, he had a down year but he is the real deal. He doesn’t fight injuries all that often. couple small nagging ones last year plus the team sucked. So can you blame a guy for wanting to play it a little safe and not risk further injury? But he got his boy back one or two little touch ups on the offensive line and Zeke Elliott will see 260 rushing attempts 1100 yards like I said, eight, eight rushing touchdowns. Wow, money guys money.

Alex 30:37
I am so glad that I play in a league with Kevin and that I’m picking after him this year because I don’t want randomize

Kevin 30:45
told me we’re switching format. Oh,

Alex 30:47
really? That’s true. That I should be picking out. I do not want to be faced with that decision. Honestly, I don’t. And I like everything that you’re saying. Kevin, I think that, you know, I would say 6040 you’re probably on the right path. 60 probably even 6535 that that’s more likely what you said is more likely than not. I do not want to be faced with the decision of having to take Zeke out yet. So for me personally, I would probably try to look elsewhere. And that would that would really set the tone for the draft because we’re talking first round action here. Right? Like that’s the first round guy if he’s not going in the first round and he’s there in the second round then. Yeah, obviously. But for a first round pick, I would struggle with that, depending on where I’m at in the draft and what’s still on the board. So I’m happy that I’m in in a league with Kevin and that even if I do pick up Zeke Elliott, I will probably flip him before the draft is even done to Kevin because he will be hounding me with trade offers. So I just a personal preference here. I’m I’m out on on Zeke. Probably to my own detriment at this point, but I’m staying away from Zeke with 1000 foot pole.

Derek 32:10
So Alex real quick, I just want to finish that thought off in that before we move on over and get earnest thoughts on this one. If you’re sitting there last pick in a 12 team draft right you’re sitting there at 112 and Zeke still there you take him.

Kevin 32:24
Why are we thinking about this? Sweet Jesus? All right, I’m jumping back in you’re tagged out. I’ll ask you this. Do you want Zeke or

Derek 32:32
Alvin Kamara Drew Brees back I’m taking Kamera without him I’m probably going to Zeke Drew Brees

Kevin 32:36
has gone to pieces. Go ahead. Drew Brees is gone. Thomas Winston and Taysom Hill Do you want Alvin Kamara or Zeke Elliot,

Alex 32:43
I still like Kamara. Okay.

Kevin 32:45
Kamara’s the 23rd best running back in the league when Drew Brees isn’t the starting quarterback. Oh, that would hurt just a little bit right? Okay, so if you’re gonna draft Kamara, fourth or fifth RB overall, right? Assuming that you have Dalvin Cook right you have Christian McCaffrey say Kwan Dalvin Cook for the sake of argument you throw in a Jonathan Taylor for all these guys who think he’s gonna blow up in like the world on fire. So Kumar at five, but no Drew Brees. That that is probably I’m probably lost galore, folks. I’m giving you tidbits thread here we go.

Alex 33:21
Running back. I don’t think I’d go running back You filthy liar. I’d probably go I’d probably go quarterback. Give me Mahomes or, you know, that’s Yeah.

Ernest 33:33
Prescott one twelve.

Alex 33:34
Prescott. Yeah. I just I can’t I can’t I can’t do it. And I know I’m not alone in this camp. And, and it’s just, I just couldn’t I can’t bring myself to it. Yeah,

Ernest 33:48
You might be alone in this episode, though, cuz I am. Absolutely. So. So here’s here’s the thing is this is a lot of people say guys perform on contract years. This is going to be that year on his contract he’s gonna have to perform if he’s gonna stay a Dallas Cowboy, and even hope to breathe any sort of life into an extension. And he got to experience the Joe Mixon treatment last year. What it’s like to have no hope on a team with Andy Dalton under center and a bad old line and still have some sort of godforsaken hope to try to make the playoffs and try to do it all himself and he absolutely fell on his face. Don’t think the fumble, stop and 2021. Matter of fact, I still have him having six fumbles this year. So fumbles are going to be a thing for fantasy purposes. And drops are going to be a thing I have I’m very close to Kip. He want to at 11 109 touchdowns, 53 receptions 460 through the year and two touchdowns through the that’s what I have projected for him. In a good year where Dallas is a contender and they’re doing well. Those those receiving numbers may go up because they’re gonna be throwing a lot more and those carries may go down because they’re going to be coming from down from behind, but I do have them crossing the 1000 mark, I do have them as an RB five or better in this year and this is a year where they’re gonna be a lot of different places with different running backs and it’s gonna, it’s gonna be crazy. Because what we saw with centers in the NBA is happening with running backs in the NFL for years now, they become irrelevant for a while and then you bring them back into relevancy and then they go irrelevant for a while. And, and so we’re just at that point right now where you just kind of want the young speedster instead of the power back and Zeke right now is just a faster version of what a power back is. So we haven’t seen that explosiveness in two years. So if you’re a Zeke keeper, good luck to you. I don’t know where you have them, but you should keep them he’s gonna be a tough fight back if you’re not on the Zeke train and he’s, he’s fallen to you in the second or third round which was blows my mind then absolutely. Go ahead and try it. I mean, keep up for trade purposes. But Zeke, Zeke will be an RB one at the very least, and he’ll be it’ll be top five running back.

Derek 36:00
I like it. I it’s one of those for me. Zeke. Zeke is and always has been a volume guy. He has to have the volume to get there. And when you look at this past season, yes, I get Dak through things tremendously out of order for that. But for the weeks that he did really well he had 19 rushing attempts or more in those weeks and weeks that he failed to get to 19 he had a lot of weeks where he was running back your back end running back to or running back three type of territory. So in order for him to get to about 19 rushing attempts in a season you’re talking about him being north of 300 yards in a you know 300 total carries on that and that’s something that with this Dallas team, I don’t know that you’re going to be able to necessarily get him that kind of carries those many carries on that just because of game script. I think they’re gonna be down a lot. I think they’re gonna have to be thrown the ball a lot to bring that thing back through. I do think that Zeke is absolutely a top 12 running back this year. I don’t know them necessarily as high as as both Kevin and Ernest are as far as the top five go but I’d probably put him finishing at probably about runningback seven this coming year. I think he can absolutely get there but he’s a guy that will be a value for you coming up especially in redraft leagues and the guy that right now in dynasty leagues you can buy low on but I think it is ADP you’re gonna probably see him drafted at 108109 in most redraft leagues and that’s a guy that will outperform ADP at that point. So that’s a guy that I will sign off on saying Go get him. You know, I take the buy low. He’s a guy that should outperform his ADP and have a better season.

Ernest 37:47
And if you want to talk Zeke as well. Go see what kind of moves Dallas makes on the offensive line because that’s that’s huge, too. We talked about that for Prescott, but that’s even bigger for Zeke. That offensive line is not deep. They’re only six or seven deep like they went in last year. complete shit show. It’s gonna be tough for Zeke because he can’t run between the tackles.

Kevin 38:04
Absolutely. And one thing to keep in mind is Zeke’s been doing this for a while now. But he’s only 25 years old. He’ll turn 26 this season, right. So for the people that subscribe to the fact of you know, 30s the cliff 30 might be Zeke’s Cliff right but 35 years away, really at four seasons, it’s four seasons away. There is still tread left on his tires. Like he came out at 20 years old and and has run two rushing titles right. You want to rushing titles in his first three years if I’m not mistaken, and lead the league in touchdowns one year, I believe intermittently. So a different teams. Yes, but some of that. It doesn’t mean that he’s just gone by the wayside. So as as long as the Cowboys don’t neglect offensive line. I think all this is extremely possible. And on top of the fact of guys, he just doesn’t get dinged up like the Cowboys sat him down in week 15 last year. Because a I believe is a quad if I’m not mistaken, I think it was a quad and Tony Pollard went off that game, but that’s neither here nor there. But outside of that Zeke doesn’t miss time. He’s not a Dalvin Cook where you’re drafting Dalvin Cook at running back. 345 overall, knowing that you’re only going to get 13 or 14 games out of them at most. Right. He’s reliable, and yes, he had a really crappy middle of the road last year, but he had six touchdowns in the four plus games that Dak Prescott and he played together. He only had two the rest of the season. So you can’t like deck does mean a ton to Zeke success, because they will fear Dak Prescott‘s right arm and his ability to drive the ball down the field. Keep a balanced offense, that all this is is is huge. And I hope I play in many, many, many leagues, where people just don’t want to be dealing with Zeke because I will eat him up, I’m willing to die on that hill for 2021. Zeke will be a top three fantasy running back.

Derek 40:23
But Kevin, you’d brought me all the way up to top five with you. I’m not gonna get there with top three with you. But looking looking back through that, right like Dak does add a an even bigger element to this because looking at what Zeke did through the passing game, he saw 71 targets last year and looking at it 33 of those came in the first five games with with Dak. So you’ll see a receiving element that wasn’t there in the back half of that. So I amend my earlier statement saying that he’s going to have to get to 300 carries on that because he’ll get enough receiving work and passing work with that being back there to help make up and carry some of that forward. So I’m there with you. Top Five for me.

Alex 41:07
You guys can have them.

Kevin 41:08
We’ll take all draft Zeke, you draft Carson Wentz and let’s see how that plays out

Alex 41:15
train left the station man that train left the station long give

Kevin 41:18
me a revive Carson Wentz with a ton of weapons in Indianapolis man I know jumping over that.

Alex 41:23
I know that train station though.

Tony Pollard RB Dallas Cowboys 2021

Derek 41:28
Alrighty, well, let’s go ahead and move on over to Tony Pollard, who finished runningback 41 last year 400 I’m sorry. 101 rushing attempts, 435 yards on the ground for rushing touchdown 28 receptions on 40 targets for initial 192 through the air and one receiving touchdown guys your thoughts on Tony Pollard.

Kevin 41:48
So all of my rant for zekiel Elliott to say this, Tony Pollard is the single most important runningback handcuff for fantasy football players. Tony Pollard has shown glimpses of brilliance even he’s spelled Zeke and shown very well. Mike McCarthy seemed to like what he brought to the table. He’s a great change of pace back. He had a spectacular game against the 40 Niners last year when Zeke was down with his injury. And overall, I don’t think he’s built to carry a workload. So it’s not necessarily meant to be that by itself. But if something were to happen to Ezekiel Elliott, Tony Pollard instantly comes into the back half of running back one territory, just right off the top before he even takes a snap. That is the ideal situation that you’re looking at if you’re going to be drafting a handcuff. That being said, He’s priced accordingly. Right? He’s not a guy that you can wait till late in the draft. He’s a guy that you have to take in the middle rounds of a draft if you have Zeke to get that handcuff established. But in my opinion, that price is worth it. Because you go from where I have Zeke as a top three running back in fantasy. If Tony Pollard were to start every single game for the Dallas Cowboys, I think he’d finished Rb 11 or Rb 12. And to get that at a 10 round discount, if Zeke goes down is still a hell of a value. So I like the kid, I think he brings a lot he does a good job even when he’s returning kicks for him. But I do not expect him to dominate snap counts, I think most games, you’re probably going to see him with about a 35% snap share, which basically equates to identical numbers from the 2020 season

Alex 43:40
carried over. So I tried to employ a strategy last year where I didn’t have the feature back for two teams that employ the feature back but instead, much later in the draft, I went and got their handcuffs. Those handcuffs were Tony Pollard and Alexander Madison. For the Vikings and Dalvin Cook. That strategy only works if the people who have those feature backs are willing to make deals with you. So what I’m saying is, don’t try that strategy because it didn’t it didn’t work for me last year. Tony Pollard, I think was the better option in that and yeah, Madison had a game won one game, I think. But beyond that, it really didn’t work out. So I’m with you, Kevin. That is the handcuff, you know, in a league where it’s seemingly less and less, where handcuffs become important because so many teams are utilizing so many different running backs in different ways. That’s where I see Tony Pollard is as that handcuff. So be conscience conscious conscious is the word I want there of where you are in the draft. And if Tony Pollard still available if you have Zeke on your roster because that that is is very pertinent to have as that backup option. Pollard on his own is playable but unreliable.

Ernest 45:09
Yep. So, uh, Tony Pollard the Ty Montgomery of the Dallas Cowboys under Mike McCarthy’s offense. So that’s pretty much as relevancy. I actually am not a fan of him and kickoffs actually I think he’s quite terrible and kick off so I’m, I hate him and kickoffs. I really hope we get a kick returner in the draft we could just toss them to the sidelines you

Kevin 45:31
have one his name CeeDee Lamb but you guys don’t want to put him back

Ernest 45:35
I don’t want CeeDee Lamb I want to I don’t want him just focused on the slot that we’re going to talk about CeeDee next year. That’s a whole different conversation. But yes, so when it comes to to what’s the time Montgomery Pollard I really expect him to be the handcuff like you guys are talking about I don’t have numbers on him. I just know that if I expect zeek to play all season and he doesn’t get hurt. I’m not relying on him fantasy wise and I’m hoping Dallas split from him because then he becomes the man so dynasty I think that’s the good warning back to own for future sake. If you already have your running back set, stash them away. And just wait. That’s worth it. So that’s my only my only thing is I don’t want them on kickoffs. Let’s just get that shit done. Like it’s this

Alex 46:19
took off it’s such it’s such a moot point anyways in the NFL.

Kevin 46:24
I mean catch it and take a knee man that’s all

Ernest 46:26
they do. They were twice he fumbled in the first quarter in on our side in the beginning of the game and it was his fault just oh man flashbacks from last season and terrible it’s worse being a rocket fan right now but just the Cowboys fan last year was even was just terrible so

Alex 46:43
yeah, try being a Broncos fan these last couple years it’s been great Yeah,

Ernest 46:50
I bet that Jerry Judy five five cat drop or that five drop game was fantastic for you guys into the year I’m sorry we won’t go there. We’re not talking about

Kevin 47:00
all the warming tinglies right

Derek 47:03
away we got the we got the Broncos and all that shenanigans out of the way last week so we can just look forward to next season. Question for y’all. Do you see so Tony Pollard going into last season? I think I asked the question we got to the Cowboys as well as you know where do you see his kind of cap as far as rushing attempts go and we set that cap last year right at 100 he got to 101 do you see Do you see him increase or decrease this year about the same looking for 2021 outlook

Ernest 47:33
decrease but it’s it’s he’s gonna have an increase in receptions because Dak Prescott will utilize him more in the passing game, which may hurt Zeke a little bit but he’s faster out there. So it’s gonna it’s gonna cause defensive problems to have him incorporate with Mike McCarthy’s offense so I’d cap it at about 85

Alex 47:51
I’m in decreased camp to in terms of carries just if if Zeke is is there the entire season then that there’s no need to run Pollard out there for that stuff.

Kevin 48:05
I’m gonna say hits the same 100 carry threshold and I think a lot of that’s because the Cowboys are coming into your to McCarthy system. They’re revamping the defense here a little bit, they’re changing. Changing from that three, four, back to a four three, so things are going to look a little bit different with the Cowboys defensively. And I think all this is going to add two more second half leads for the Cowboys. So they’re still going to spell Zeke but if he’s you know, look at it. Like well how I said earlier right? 35 to 40% of the snap share, but if you’re running the ball X amount more like Zeke, Zeke can’t take all of that so instead of Tony Pollard having 22 carries in one game because he misses well you take that 22 carries you split it out over three games where you know he gets an extra two carries here and there and you’re back to the same number so I’m gonna say about 100 again but I think the average will be about the same like I don’t see him blowing the doors off and having much more than 380 yards and maybe a touch more maybe you’ll see him a 404 120 yards on about 100 carries. So serviceable not

Derek 49:33
like just a little curious there.

Alex 49:35
Let’s go ahead and hold on. I’m also still not convinced that jerry jones doesn’t get crazy on draft night and take a running back so that just just put

Derek 49:44
out here their draft line and defense

Alex 49:47
that you say that and then CeeDee Lambs falls to you. What do you do?

Derek 49:53
Well, it’s CeeDee Lamb is a very special player and we’re gonna get to him when we talk running back our wide receiver room. Which is where we’re headed now, but we’re gonna start with Amari Cooper. The very well paid wide receiver down there in Dallas who finished number 16 last year 92 receptions on 130 targets 1114 yards through the air five receiving touchdowns. Guys, what are your thoughts on Amari Cooper?

Amari Cooper WR Dallas Cowboys 2021

Kevin 50:19
Amari Cooper is the unsexy receiver that will just consistently end up as a bottom and RB one or a top and RB two, right like he runs very good routes His hands are his hands have always been pretty good. I know he had one season and then Oakland where they were kind of dogging on his hands a little bit but I haven’t seen him carry over too many of those the drop issues outside of what the first three games as a cowboy where people were kind of clamoring like what the hell is this guy doing? And outside of that has been pretty sure handed. He’s not blazing fast. He’s very much a possession style receiver but he can get he can push the secondary deep, but you’re not he’s not the over the top guy, if that makes sense. Right. So you’re looking for a deep in maybe a deep post every once in a while. He’s a great guy to go after. When you need that first down by the chains, because his footwork is so good and his route running is on par. He does all those wonderful things. He’s just not the sexy wide receiver. He gets the job done, but he’s just not the sexy guy. So that being said, I think because of CeeDee Lamb Amari Cooper‘s draft stock is actually going to take a bit of a drop this year. So you might find some real value on him. I expect him to kind of finish. Same thing top end of RB two like I see him as wide receiver 13 or 14. You can see him depending on how the touchdowns fall. I could see him sneak up into the very back end of RB one territory.

Alex 52:03
Wide Receiver man wide receiver

Kevin 52:09
Cooper’s numbers will improve because Dak will presumably be playing all 16 games. So you’re not gonna have some of the wonky Fallout that you had with Andy Dalton and the cast of misfits that followed him for the Dallas Cowboys last year. So Cooper, while unsexy is very steadfast and he is a great wide receiver to option on your fantasy football team because of you know, he’s gonna see consistent targets week over week he will get into the end zone six to eight times depending on how the season shakes out. So you could do a lot worse than although he’s not the guy that first triggers my happy. My happiness when I’m looking at a fantasy draft list.

Alex 53:00
Odds are I think in a lot of drafts, he probably won’t be the first Dallas wide receiver off the board right in a redraft league like people will probably go the CeeDee Lamb route and I doubt Michael Gallup really eclipses that but I think CeeDee lands probably what what people would would go for and this is me just spitballing here, but I think that you would be wrong in doing that because the consistency that Amari Cooper does provide so I’m there that you know sometimes you just need the points that you can count on week in and week out. And you can do that with Amari Cooper. I’ll tell you, you know I had a Chris Godwin last year and while he was kind of a revelation with Tom Brady and that revamped offense down there in Tampa Bay. I can pretty much count on what I was going to get out of a Chris Godwin weekend and week out and there’s something that is comforting about that. So yes Kevin. While it may not be the sexy name, there’s there is comfort there and that comfort is is worth its weight in gold when it comes to fielding a fantasy football roster so I think you’re right with with the stats that he’s got a healthy Dak Prescott the entire season. And if you want a piece of this cowboys offense and you don’t get back or you don’t get See, Amari Cooper is really really solid choice to get if if that’s the direction you want to go.

Kevin 54:32
It Cooper started out on a tear last year. I mean, also from the first four games playing with dad was unreal. He had 390 yards only the one touchdown, but he did it on what is this good lord on 40. Almost 50 targets the football game direction. So Dak does look his direction which is always a plus when you’re looking to fill in a guy, especially a guy that you’re playing Plugging in on a fantasy football roster most likely as your wide receiver too. He’s constantly being looked at so that again, to your point, he is a guy that he’s not going to put up a goose egg like he’s just too good and Dak looks is way far too often. He has a very safe floor. And if he can improve his touchdown numbers just a little bit. He’s a guy that you can find out you got as a steel who could really propel your team into the playoffs and beyond.

Ernest 55:32
How many of those games were at home start the year that

Derek 55:37
two half

Kevin 55:37
to at home to other?

Ernest 55:39
Yep. So the thing about Amari Cooper is he likes to disappear on the road. That’s not a surprising trend for even his days in Oakland,

Kevin 55:47
week. One at the Los Angeles Rams 14 targets for 10 receptions. That’s not I mean, traditionally, maybe and then week three at Seattle that’s never an easy place to play 12 targets nine receptions. Both those games were under 100 yards but 80 plus yards on double digit targets Yeah,

Ernest 56:09
I mean he gets the targets but he’s he’s had bad road games this I don’t want to Yeah, last year is kind of a hard year to gauge. If we want to go back to 2019 we can go see what a real year with him and deck together and he generally had any add a goose egg in 2019. So I don’t want to say

Derek 56:27
the 2019 Wasn’t he playing injury quite a bit and he seemed to be out there more as a distraction or he coined the second type of Yeah,

Ernest 56:36
but he generally shows up in home games and has big moments and he does in a way games and that seems to be a trend and I pretty sure there’s some I don’t have that set in front of me but I’m pretty sure there’s some stats to support that. His averages do go down. But I do I do want to say this. He is he is the best paid wide receiver to this year, right? He’s gonna be he’s gonna be the best paid wide receiver to because he’s gonna finish around the 1315 range. And the number one receiver is going to be CeeDee Lamb and I know we’re gonna talk about him next but he Dak loves the slot. He loves to feature the slot. He didn’t get a lot of repertoire with CeeDee Lamb last year because of the injury. See Lamb got to get NFL ready. He’s gonna have a whole offseason where there’s COVID inflicting so there’s not gonna be a lot of parties he’s gonna go attend. That might be the case for Zeke. Zeke might come in a little bit more serious than usual, because of COVID which is going to be nice to see that they’re going to be full folk football focus ready, and so we’ll have to see what Lamb and Prescott can do together. Because we also what Beasley did with Prescott and we saw what Beasley is doing with Allen when he runs in the slot and I think Lamb has the exact same potential to be a wide receiver one and be featured in Dallas and so I have CeeDee I’m finishing as a wide receiver one. And Cooper finishing has a high end wide receiver too.

Derek 57:55
So Ernest, I actually found your stat for you where you’re talking on home road splits, you’re right. There’s a big difference there because in the home games, Amari Cooper averages almost 80 yards a game, it’s just over 79 yards, 25 receiving touchdowns and on a way games. He’s down there about 54 yards a game and only 13 receiving touchdown. So you’re right, there’s a there’s a very big difference there. But I do think that having Dak back with him, you’ll see lots of really good things shake out there. And you’re looking at it too. He is he really is kind of that possession guy there and from a wide receiver especially a wide receiver to you can’t you really can’t ask for much more than a volume type of play that Mr. Cooper’s typically going to give you because he’s going to be 120 130 type of target receiver year in year out and he’s got some good hands He’s got a good catch radius. So the ability to bring the ball in and and get you you know, roughly 1000 yards a season with close to about 100 receptions. That’s that’s pretty good value for a wide receiver to kind of speaking back to Kevin’s point you’re talking Mr. Consistency he was the seventh most consistent wide receiver last year even without Dak so for a wide receiver on my fantasy roster is a guy that I would love to have there. But it personally is a guy that I probably won’t go because I’m going to be targeting the guy we’re going to be talking about next and that CeeDee Lamb.

Alex 59:30
Not to belabor the point but I mean, isn’t that only natural for an offense to for a player really to have a decrease of production on the road. I mean everything is working against you on the road as an opposing offense if you’re playing in in you know stadiums where the there’s a lot of people there and the crowd noise affects you and communication is difficult and Oftentimes, you know, defenses will feed off of that. And so you know, the quarterback, everything kind of gets sped up a little bit versus when you’re at home. There’s, it’s a little quieter, communications a little easier. You’re able to cheat a little bit on, you know, snap counts and all that stuff. And just everything’s working in your favor. I don’t I don’t know. You know, I’m sure that this is obviously a big and an earnest, you having watched this play out, I’m sure that you’ve had your eye on it, and you notice it, but I would have a feeling that that would be kind of the norm across the league, that that receivers would have a little rougher time on the road. Just because of how especially a guy like like Amari Cooper where, you know, option routes are everything you know, and if that if you can’t get on the same page with your quarterback and everything’s kind of sped up and and the crowd noise is overwhelming. You know, that’s, that’s, it’s difficult. So I would be curious. I don’t feel like there’s there’s a drama

Ernest 1:01:05
there is there’s a drop off it’s about it’s about 20% of production drops. That’s that’s kind of the average IQ it’s like 1817 18% but but Omari cent is in the 30% Round Round up so it’s known

Alex 1:01:17
as glaring

Ernest 1:01:18
yeah if it’s noticeable to the eye it’s quite a bit so I mean like yeah, we don’t need stats to see it it’s quite a bit but I will say this like when I think a wide receiver not because I don’t want to get away a Mario is a wide receiver one for a team talent he’s just not a wide receiver one per fantasy so I don’t want to get that that that misconstrued because there are 16 teams the NFL they can use them as a wide receiver one today. Mike I can name I could probably name them if I wanted to right now yeah, I could get pretty close so so I mean and Houston just an easy one to get us a Cooper tomorrow so so I mean like so there are tons of teams who don’t have that wide receiver one who would take them Dallas just fortunate to have two of them and two that play their exact positions correctly in the slot and on the outside. And then luckily we don’t I say we because I’m a Cowboys fan but luckily you don’t need cowboys. Why you don’t need to already be that deep threat right that’s why we have Michael Gallup because he can he could pass somebody and can spread the defense for you. So you’re right he is a possession receiver for for Dallas and luckily he’s become more clutch in situations where you need that first you need a Do you need nine here. He’s been a little bit more of that of that relevancy as of late but what to see how they use them. Let’s see how dakka dakka just like it.

CeeDee Lamb WR Dallas Cowboys 2021

Derek 1:02:34
Let’s go ahead and move on over to CeeDee Lamb who finished wide receiver number 20 last year 74 receptions on 111 targets 935 yards through the air five touchdowns through the air, guys your thoughts on CeeDee Lamb drive.

Ernest 1:02:53
I can start with this one just to lead things off a CeeDee Lamb is going to have a fantastic second year. He’s not my candidate for sophomore slump. He’s going to be a sophomore surge I can put him in that category because he is going to have Dak Prescott forte, which is the drop down which is the slot which is out of the backfield and he can do all of that and so that’s fantastic. I really expect him to boost I have him around the 90 catch 1000 yard Mark eight touchdowns. At least one touchdown every two games and if you can, if you boost it up a little bit, he could even get to the 12 touchdown mark. He’s up there because he plays the same field as as as what Dak likes to throw which is between between the the mid the mid marks and and right down the field of path around the linebackers. And he’s faster so I absolutely love CeeDee Lamb and the fact that he could take the top off the defense as well and mix it up is just even better. Like I said Dec has three seconds or more behind that line and he didn’t get past a defense. That’s just gold for Dallas. So would love to see that more often. CeeDee Lamb will probably be a fourth fifth round pick and drabs if you’re in a redraft league because people are gonna think he’s the wide receiver one. If you’re in Texas, you’re probably not even gonna get a chance to get him because he’s gonna be ever just like dag is probably going to go around one for most Texas leagues. So I apologize for that cuz that’s not fair to y’all and that’s not even true value. But if you can grab CeeDee Lamb and one of those mid rounds three to six that threes high for four to seven. And you can really you can really get value from that he’s going to be a wide receiver one this year. He’s going to be the guy Dallas features and you already saw it my McCarthy’s all about CeeDee Lamb. So exciting things in Dallas when it comes to that sophomore receiver.

Kevin 1:04:36
Yeah, I like CeeDee Lamb a lot. I like his situation better than Jerry Judy. Mainly because your quarterback situation is solidified. You know what’s going on. You understand the offensive scheme that Mike McCarthy is looking to implement based off of last year. And just watch this young receiver explode onto the scene. He’s he is amazing with the ball in his hands right he even back in his Oklahoma days you just found ways to get this kid the ball and he makes really, really special things happen. I think that continues and grows in his sophomore season in the NFL. I man I don’t know that I’m ready to claim wide receiver one on CeeDee Lamb just yet, but I’m a little removed from Dallas, so I’m not going to discredit that but man oh man, I think for the sake of hedging my bets here a little bit. I’m gonna say he’s going to be a wide receiver too. But it wouldn’t I wouldn’t surprise me with you being that passionate about it. I need to go back through and start looking at things a little bit closer on CeeDee Lamb here and see if I need to change my evaluation because I did not have him pegged as a wide receiver one but apparently this getting Michael Evans Jersey is wearing off on the kid and I need to pay attention to that.

Ernest 1:06:02
Yeah, I like go take a look at some of Beasley’s stats go look at some of the routes run the match. It’s like It’s like 72% and then see that value as he’s a little bit bigger, faster, stronger than Beasley so you can you can understand he’s gonna be on the field more. So anyways, don’t mean to plug you Alex, go ahead and take it away. No, I

Alex 1:06:21
don’t think I have anything pertinent to add to this. I mean, see Lamb is is obviously going to be a factor

Derek 1:06:28
earner. She made me very happy there because I have I’ve been playing around with some things here in my mind on where I’ve kind of got CeeDee Lamb going. And it was one of those that I just wasn’t sure if I had an Oklahoma bias forum because I’m a big Sooners fan, as you all know. But looking through some things. I remember when we were having a conversation last year I I told y’all that I thought Calvin Ridley would be a top 10 guy would actually surpass Julio Jones in fantasy production for 2020. And looking at things that’s kind of where I’m going right now as far as the Cowboys are concerned, I do think that you’ll see CeeDee Lamb, outpace Amari Cooper for fantasy production this coming year and get inside the top 10 so that’s kind of where I see him going, I think that he’s dependent upon the group that you’re with, you’re either going to get tremendous value for him because he’ll be a guy that people will not necessarily pick up on and you’ll be able to get him as a fourth or fifth round kind of guy and you’re going to be in there’s gonna be a lot of company out there that’s going to draft him in the third round. So that that comes with some caution there if you can get them round for round five tremendous value round three that’s where I start getting a little bit a little bit more leery there just because of the fact that he’s not proven yet but I think that you will see him get inside the top 10 for fantasy this year kind of a bold take bold prediction for you.

Alex 1:07:59
Here’s what scares me about CeeDee Lamb is is we didn’t get to see too much of him and Dak and keep in mind you know there wasn’t the offseason last year because of that there wasn’t the preseason last year because of COVID and so we didn’t get to see too much of Dak and CeeDee Lamb and what we did see was good right you know that there was obviously a connection there but that does scare me third round like if CeeDee Lamb is third player on my roster put that does scare me a lot you know like there are other ways that I would go but I mean yeah I guess I wouldn’t be surprised to see him you know at the end of the year be in that wide receiver one discussion but I I just don’t know that I would be I certainly not third player you know on my roster and a redraft that’s that is asking a lot

Derek 1:08:57
right that’s where I’m saying if you can get him as your fourth or fifth guy he’ll

Alex 1:09:00
yeah much more comfortable with that

Derek 1:09:02
he will outperform that ADP I do believe but that third round type of deal is going to be sticking point for me if I’ve got to take them a third I’m gonna pass on that get something a little bit more tried and true a little bit more consistency there but fourth fifth round I see is a tremendous value on this kid coming up.

Ernest 1:09:20
Yep, stack a stack of Dak and CeeDee Lamb. Well may just may just be what puts you over the edge and not only making the playoffs might be the reason why you wouldn’t championship

Alex 1:09:31
Would you rather stack Dak and CeeDee Lamb or Dak and Zeke,

Ernest 1:09:37
that’s a good question. So I was just debating that in my head.

Alex 1:09:42
You know, because Kevin is a Dak and Zeke stacker and he had that last year and and I I’m curious to be honest, it was

Ernest 1:09:51
you know, four weeks or four weeks are fantastic. I think if you can write if you can get data in Zeke, I think I would still go Dak and Zeke from the experience and the consistency part and what what you know is true in Dallas. But if you miss on one, well, I guess if you miss on Zeke, and you grab Dak and the second or third round, and CeeDee’s sitting there at round five, there’s no reason why you should pass up. That’s an easy stack. That’s this guy. I mean, you guys haven’t seen it yet. But I’m telling you, that’s that. Week Six, you’re gonna be like, airness. Thanks for the tip. CeeDees wide receiver eight right now and Dallas is rolling. So that would be ideal for me, I guess.

Derek 1:10:38
Please, a YAC monster. And like you said, he fits right into where Dak likes to throw and he’s a tremendous after the catch gaining yard so I like CeeDee. I like them all the way back since Oklahoma. Like I said, it might be a little bit of a biased opinion. But that’s where we’re at. Let’s go ahead and move

Kevin 1:10:56
on. Hold on. Let’s play a game here. I’m trying to wrap my head. I’m trying to wrap my head around this this wide receiver. One thing for CeeDee Lamb and I’m not saying you’re wrong. I just I need some convincing here. No. CeeDee Lamb or Calvin Ridley. This year

Ernest 1:11:14
I’m about to take CeeDee Lamb. Yeah, that’s a tough one for me too. It’s a toss up but it’s probably CeeDee.

Derek 1:11:20
I think Julio is back in just as good as ever. So Calvin Ridley,

Ernest 1:11:24
and it’s actually more me on Matt Ryan, this is an audio right and so they the evening. Very well. That’s true. That’s true, but that might be even worse. And we don’t even know if he’s gonna be under center. So I don’t know. Too much inconsistency in Atlanta.

Kevin 1:11:39
Okay, so CeeDee Lamb or the rookie darling Justin Jefferson.

Derek 1:11:44
Jeff Ed. Yeah. That’s awesome. But

Ernest 1:11:49
I’m more Jefferson than I am. Yeah.

Alex 1:11:52
I’m going to contradict myself here in a few minutes, but I think I’d go Jefferson, okay, CeeDee or Chris Godwin CeeDee, Godwin.

Derek 1:12:01
That’s kind of a push for me. That’s that’s kind of where I draw the line there.

Alex 1:12:04
And I’m, I was really in the first one too. I’m not see I’m not sold on CeeDee The

Ernest 1:12:10
thing about the book and nears now we’re going to talk.

Derek 1:12:13
Actually, I take that back. I’m taking CeeDee in that one. Yeah, you’ll see more volume. And yeah, yeah.

Ernest 1:12:21
There’s more volume for CeeDee in Dallas than there is for God one in Denver,

Kevin 1:12:24
okay, CeeDee or DK

Ernest 1:12:28
CeeDee.

Derek 1:12:29
Yeah, I’m gonna take CeeDee. That’s that’s part of the reason Schottenheimer left town is because they couldn’t agree on an offensive approach. And that also seems like a lot of the friction between Russ and the Seahawks is a simple fact that they can’t agree on offensive philosophies moving forward.

Ernest 1:12:43
See, it’s kind of turning the script back to you, Kevin, because you’re talking about what’s consistent. And what do you know, although we haven’t seen Dak and CV, the pieces fit. Or as in these other scenarios, like we’ve seen DK have zero goose egg games. And we’ve seen him disappear and we don’t know if Ross is even going to be in Seattle. We don’t know if Tampa Bay is even going to look the same next year to another year on Tom Brady. I know we say that every year but it’s another year on Tom Brady. Atlanta you do know that offense is gonna look so don’t reason I even say Justin Jefferson is because he’s gonna have a bulk volume. He’s he is the guy in Minnesota. Adam Thielen is he is he back is that is Yeah. So So okay, so let me let me rephrase that there’s, those are the two guys and so they’re going to get the majority of the work and then Dalvin Cook runs a bar i mean that I can see the Vikings you can see the Vikings offense kind of paste it out. Whereas in Dallas, see that doing Dak Prescott sin is prime when you’re looking at Dak Prescott‘s field division 77% of his throws, and in between the hashes, it’s up to field it was Jason Witten, zekiel. Elliott. His slot receiver Cole Beasley is no more Jason Witten, and although I love Blake Jarwin it’s now CeeDee Lamb. He’s a big guy in the middle. He’s gonna take those he’s gonna take the slant the slant, middle route, he’s gonna he’s gonna go over the top, He’s everywhere on the field, they now play him in the backfield, which adds more volume to TD Lamb. So I mean, there’s just so much CeeDee in that offense. And it’s just going to be more next year. That’s why it’s hot. And with the better quarterback, it’s hard to say CeeDee regresses from last year stats or that he stays the same with a better quarterback who runs the offense and who likes to look at that position.

Alex 1:14:23
What’s very interesting about all those guys that Kevin throughout, with the exception of Godwin in Tampa, but that that’s the Tom Brady effect, but all of those guys DK Jefferson, and what was it who is the Ridley Ridley they’re all that’s all new either offensive coordinator or head coach and new staff so the tears to take those is taking the risk whereas CeeDee Lamb second year in this offense a little bit more with with back and getting, you know, familiar with him. So I can see very easily that the side of you know, whereas you think that DK Metcalf is is a more consistent or a more comfortable choice, or Jefferson might be more comfortable. Like all those guys are playing under new offensive this year under new offensive coordinators. So maybe that might not be the comfort whereas the comfort could come from CeeDee Lamb who’s in second year with this?

Derek 1:15:33
Well and one of the other things for me too, right you look at Justin Jefferson, you look at DK Metcalf, both of those guys tremendous talents. But when you look at last year, their production came further down the field. So they had to they were averaging roughly 1516 yards per reception were CeeDee Lambs a little bit shorter at about that 12 to 13 range to it. It’s one of those that I see Dak being able to connect on that and seeing a very consistent volume there. And CeeDee Lamb having the ability to make guys miss and get down the field more so than some of these other guys having to connect on those deeper targets. Like Kirk Cousins isn’t bad, but I don’t know that I really want to trust him connecting with a receiver for an average of 16 yards down the field. It’s just one of those edges doesn’t blow my hair back. Russ can do it but the question becomes how much are we going to see Russell Wilson throw the ball next year in Seattle.

Kevin 1:16:30
That’s running back That’s true.

Derek 1:16:33
You bet I bet you they go out and draft and it would be my

Alex 1:16:36
my guess he’s gonna be calling all the plays. I imagine that he will throw the football why he’s still got to get at least one MVP vote.

Kevin 1:16:44
There you go. Now fair enough. Like I said, I’m just trying to get a feel for where you guys have stacked up here. Here’s the last one since we’re talking about tenure and system and everything else.

Derek 1:16:54
Keenan Allen our CeeDee I gotta go Kenan on that one.

Alex 1:16:59
I think I would lean Keenan Allen to

Ernest 1:17:01
having Herbert all you’re probably but boosts up Kenan. But if I had a look at last year’s rankings I think Tyler Lockett drops out of wide receiver one territory Yes, I have to say Justin Jefferson probably comes down to the norm A little bit more DK Metcalf probably comes down to the norm Cameron really comes down to the norm Mike Evans may not be up there and wide receiver wants so there’s there’s five or six slots where you can see guy shift around and you literally have CeeDee Lamb at number 20 right and that’s that’s what the year he had never quarterback Yeah, so that’s I think I think I still land I I’m pretty solid. He’s going to be number one if Dallas features him the way that they should.

Michael Gallup WR Dallas Cowboys 2021

Derek 1:17:41
They do still have a another good wide receiver on the lineup there. Michael Gallup is a guy that I was really high on last year and that just didn’t pan out but he finished wide receiver 38 this past year 59 receptions 105 targets 843 yards on and five receiving touchdowns. Guys your thoughts on Michael Gallup?

Kevin 1:18:04
Derek I was right there with you. Last year I was I was on the Michael Gallup train like this was it everybody was focused in on CeeDee Lamb and rightfully so the kid the kids a beast like it wasn’t meant to take away from him. But I really thought Gallup was going to kind of continue his back end success from 2019 into 2020. He got off to a really slow start and then kind of quietly got his 800 yards and five touchdowns as the season went on, but he’s still a hell of a player guys. I still really like Michael Gallup like he is the guy that helps stretch the field for the Cowboys. He is the guy who will see consistently two or three deep shots per game to help keep the safeties back and the cornerbacks honest. It’s just a matter of timing right? How much work does Dak Prescott get with Michael Gallup and just the Cowboys offense as a whole to get that rhythm and be able to put the ball in the places where Michael Gallup can make place gallop for being a deep threat. He’s actually better when he can have a split second, if he turns early to high point the ball because of his length. He doesn’t lay out for the ball particularly well. His ability to dive and catch if you will, is not spectacular. He has a lot that hit his fingertips and he drops some when he lands and you know, we’re getting pretty deep and nitpicking type thing here, but it’s all things to think about. Yes, things could go differently from one year to the next on some of those but when you’re able to get gal, you know, 16 to 20 yards deep, and he’s able to turn and face deck and jump to high point that ball the whole weigh in his success rates and his catch rate on those targets jumps up about 25%. Like that’s a big big difference between just having them run down the field like a flash and hope that he can catch it over his shoulder and either catch it while going down or, or laying out to catch the ball. So little itty bitty things. I liked Michael Gallup, I think he is the Forgotten receiver. I think that he is a guy that you are going to be able to get pretty deep in your redraft leagues like he is going to be the one that just keeps falling down the list. And not that he’s going to be the answer to all your problems. But what a great fourth, and quite possibly fifth receiver on your fantasy team to have then Michael gout because if something were to happen to Cooper, or CeeDee Lamb, Michael Gallup‘s target shares instantly just going to climb, going to climb, and right wrong or indifferent. Because he plays the outside his snap share is actually going to be higher than CT lamps. Now see, Lamb will probably get used more like we’ve covered. But gallop is at least going to be on the field. He’s not a guy. And this is a really poor comparison, but I apologize. He’s not Kendrick born for the 49 years, right? He’s a guy who’s on the field sometimes not on the field sometimes, but always seems to have two games a year where you’re going Holy crap, like why don’t I have this guy in my roster? Michael gallops at least gonna see the field, he’ll be on there about 60% of the time. And then changing out between Noah Brown, Cedric Wilson city, Lamb, you know all the cast of characters that are behind them. But I like the kid, I think he holds a great value, if I can pick him up in the 12th 13th rounds. Like if people are just asleep at the switch there, I’m gladly going to welcome him on to my bench, and then play him as needed, whether it’s a matchup or by week or injury dependent, but that’s the area of which I would use him. So to me, gallop

Alex 1:22:01
is high risk, and sometimes high reward. And that is okay, for a guy that you’re going to take in the 10th round or later. And that’s where I see Gallup 10th round might even be a little too soon, when it comes to where Michael Gallup is, is going to be taken if he’s there in the 10th. That might be a little too soon. But it is it is a very high risk because of his usage of what his goal is going to be and it might help a little bit with you know, the RPO being back into this offense safeties might have to cheat up a little bit and he can take the top off of the defense, as you said, Kevin, so that to me, high risk, sometimes high reward, it’s a week by week basis with Michael Gallup, you’re gonna have to kind of pay attention to what’s going on. But 10th round or later, 11th round or later. That is the type of player that you want in that spot is a high risk, which at that point becomes sort of low risk, but the potential for the high reward is there.

Ernest 1:23:08
Michael Gallup, the man is a mystery to most he is one of the most silent clutch players on the Dallas Cowboys roster because when big moments Michael Gallup steps up as a as a receiver on the outside more times than not for Amari Cooper who I wish would step up in big moments. But But let’s so I’m gonna play this game real quick with you guys before I give my my final take on Michael Gallup. If Dak is a 4000, yard passer, Miko, gallops 1000 yard receiver, agree or no?

Derek 1:23:43
Yes,

Kevin 1:23:44
yes.

Ernest 1:23:45
Yeah, so definitely be wide receiver three if not better, if he’s 1000 yard receiver. So I don’t think Dak in a winning year. I don’t think Dak should be throwing 4000 yards I’m gonna go back to that analysis and say, I don’t think Michael gaps 1000 yards here because I hope Dak is not throwing 4000 yards but if he is, and for fantasy purposes, and Michael Gallup in the 10th round is an easy selection should never be bashed up. In Texas leagues. I can tell you this from experience Michael guy was picked up in the eighth and ninth so he’s a hot commodity in Texas leagues like he’s just gone. So you never get that chance. Because people like us who just play all the teams are like, hey, why that guy even why is that guy gone? So like I think last year even CeeDee Lamb left in the fourth and fifth. He was gone early. So it was just crazy dumb. But um, yeah, so I have gallop at 70 catches 850 yards and six touchdowns. And his touchdown cut count is up a little bit just because Dak likes to go to him and and he the vertical space that he creates. I think Kevin, you talked about how he goes up to the high point and catches. It’s phenomenal. He’s great. cityland does the same thing and Marty is not the best but he’s a deep threat too. So I do have them at 7850 I do want to remind everybody though, the Michael Gallup game, I still think happens. So 600 yards for 15 games and then a 200 yard one game, that will happen. So what you’re really getting is 60 catches 650 yards. And then you got one game where he has 10 catches in 200 yards and a touchdown. So just keep that in mind that you’re just trying to make sure you play him that one game, and then let him ride the pine the rest of the time unless there’s an injury. So just want to caveat that he’s a great best ball receiver,

Kevin 1:25:33
right? Like he is an ideal guy that you grab in basketball in the 10th 11th round because you have such that that high ceiling and you can capitalize on all those games where he’s getting, you know, his touchdown games, like you said is 200 yard, one or two touchdown games. And then the other ones where he squeaks in like, oh, here’s 85 and a touchdown on, you know, five catches like holy crap, good job, like I get I’ll take the 17 points and go on home. Thanks.

Ernest 1:26:02
Right, like, like he’s the better Donte Moncrief that he’s always on the field and he randomly has why that guy’s five for 65 today away now. You got to learn how to Donte Moncrief get 14.6 points today. And you’re like crap, I should have started him like that. He’s that guy most of the time and you’re like, let him ride but if anything were to happen, Amari Cooper, knock on wood, anything during the year, boy, Michael Gallup, he instantly just

Derek 1:26:28
all the way up.

Ernest 1:26:29
I mean, you just see you want that guy on your bench. But yeah, sorry. That’s why

Derek 1:26:34
I like it. Oh, Michael Gallup is definitely guy with a lot of talent. And he’s an interesting one. You guys have already, you know, hit up a lot of those points. So I’m not gonna spend a ton of time there. But he’s a guy that when you talk about wanting a piece of the offense, he This is a piece of the offense that you can get it with Dallas, right? We all think the Dak gonna have a pretty good year we think that Mari Cooper is gonna have a good year, CeeDee Lamb will have a good year Zeke will have a good year. But all of that being said, you’re going to have to get every one of those guys if you know at at most, maybe a mid round is the furthest back that you could take any one of those guys Michael Gallup is a late round kind of guy that you can pick up and you can do some amazing things with not only that, and guys that you look for that should have kind of big fantasy seasons and big NFL seasons. One of the precursors to that is going into a contract year, this is the last year that Michael gallops on that contract. Next year, he’ll be a free agent. So this is a guy looking to play to get paid. He’s got a ton of talent and then now’s the time for him to showcase it and collect the bag next year. So I do think that you’ll see Michael Gallup have a very good season and it’ll be one of those that you put the disclaimer on it that he’ll have the big blow up week and then they’ll have a lot of you know, less than mediocre weeks but that’s that’s just how they’re going to utilize them and how they’re going to do that but I see him having a good overall finish for fantasy this year compared to where his ADP is going to put them.

Ernest 1:28:14
Yeah, and if you’re stashing him a dynasty in case you think he’s gonna leave and go somewhere and be number one, he’ll probably end up in Chicago

Blake Jarwin TE Dallas Cowboys 2021

Derek 1:28:22
could be that’s a that’s a pretty good buy low candidate though to like, there’s a lot of people willing to move off on on Michael Gallup. And he’s worth worth the asking price in most dynasty leagues. So go out there and get him. Yeah. Let’s go ahead and hit up the tide. Andrew Blake Jarwin. Very injury shortened season. We’re not even gonna bother mentioned the stats there. But guys, what are your thoughts about Blake Jarwin heading into 2021.

Kevin 1:28:45
I liked Darwin a lot. He was he was primed, right like he was the guy who the Cowboys had kind of had waiting in the wings as they, you know, salted the way the rest of Jason Witten is worth. And then the poor guy goes out and had some season ending injury. Now, Dalton Schultz, who we’ll talk about in a minute really filled in pretty admirably given the state of all things Dallas Cowboys last year, but make no mistake, Blake Jarwin is the go to Titan on this team. Dalton shorts is a scholtz is a wonderful number two option. It’s great to have a guy who’s that versatile and that you can use him in different situations. It helps with formations right to run two tight end sets. Both guys aren’t afraid to stick their nose in there and chip on edge rushers before they get out into routes. That thing will help and hopefully McCarthy can utilize that to his benefit and just kind of keep things interesting for opposing defenses give them a lot of different looks, things to worry about and be able to capitalize on mismatches that way, but Blake Jarwin is a guy who have every expectation that Blake Jarwin will finish in the top 10 for tight ends. So Now, there’s a big range there. We’ve covered that in episodes past, right? Like there’s a huge difference between Titan one and Titan three, let alone Titan three and Titan 10. So, while I’m saying he’s going to finish as a top 10 tight end, it doesn’t mean that you need to run out and draft him in round nine. Like, he and Blake Jarwin Jonnu Smith, Colclough met. Who else am I thinking of? even got no, Egan’s? I’m not gonna say Jack Doyle. I know he’s your buddy. But he’s further down that list. He

Alex 1:30:38
killed me last year.

Kevin 1:30:42
Just in general, you can wait on tight end, right. If you’re not going after Travis, Kelsey, then maybe wait a little bit, obviously, obviously, if it’s tied in premium, your schedule, your draft strategy’s changing. But just traditionally, you have Travis Kelsey, and then you have everyone else and everyone else includes kiddle because he can’t stay healthy. Darren Waller because he only goes off in weeks that I’m playing against him. Yeah.

Alex 1:31:09
You’re in a league with Kevin. And you get there and Waller on your team.

Kevin 1:31:16
And then you kind of go down the rest of the list. So Blake Jarwin is a guy you can probably pick up in the 13th 14th round and see some of that come to fruition. There’s a lot of big name guys. We’re probably going to go ahead of him.

Derek 1:31:30
Evan Ingram,

Kevin 1:31:32
if he could ever stay healthy. We’ll go ahead of him obviously Hunter Henry Amari Cooper, Hayden Hurst like we can list probably 15 Titans that are going to go in front of Blake Jarwin. But Jordan will outpace the back half of them.

Derek 1:31:47
Any desire to talk about Dalton Schultz. Do you guys think you’ll have any fantasy relevance here in 2021? No, no. Okay.

Kevin 1:31:55
I want him to because I picked him up on a bunch of teams last year when jarwin went down, but

Derek 1:32:00
