But will it be a Tyreek Hill Day?Will it be a Nico Collins Day?We'll talk about it right now on FFT Express. All right, a lot of big news to get to here, but we'll go position by position, starting with the quarterbacks.
Dak Prescott likely to have season-ending surgery, according to ESPN.That's not going to make any difference for this week.Trevor Lawrence is likely out, but Gabe Davis and Brian Thomas Jr.are expected to play.
Are you still cool starting Brian Thomas Jr., Heath?
Yeah, I think I moved him down four or five spots.The truth is, there really hasn't been that big a difference between Trevor Lawrence and Mac Jones in their career.I think that it will be maybe 85% to what you're used to from Brian Thomas Jr.
All right, Will Levis is going to start for Tennessee.Remember Calvin Ridley with Will Levis, his ADOT is like 19 yards.He hasn't been very good at all.Starters at Calvin Ridley at the Chargers.
He's about five spots behind Brian Thomas Jr.So if you're starting three wide receivers, I think I'm still starting Calvin Ridley.But in a two wide receiver league, I'd like to get away from him.
Well, that's the boring stuff.Here we go to the exciting stuff.Christian McCaffrey is back.Is he an automatic start?
Yeah, he's I think I'm maybe a little lower than Dave and Jamie on him, just because I'm not sure he's going to have his complete workload in his first game of the season.But I can't imagine you're sitting Christian McCaffrey.
Now, remember, we have a 9 a.m.show and a noon Eastern show, 9 a.m.Eastern, noon Eastern at at YouTube dot com slash fantasy football today.Join us then and we'll give you some more line of advice.
Tajay Spears and Tony Pollard are both going to play.Jonathan Brooks is out, though.So does that affect your ranking of Chuba Hubbard at 930 a.m. ?
Um, you know, I didn't really have a huge role projected for Jonathan Brooks in his first game.So no, he, who Hubbard is a very good number two running back.
Brian Robinson jr.Is out thoughts on Eckler.
He is a top 12 running back.
Okay.Ooh.Okay.All right.Let's go to the wide receivers.Here we go.Tyreek Hill is questionable and he's playing Monday night.This stinks.He has a wrist injury.He may not play.
I'll tell you what I'm doing right now and what I've advised other people to do is to pick up Jonu Smith.If you can maneuver it into a flex spot here. And then then you can wait because I don't want Odell Beckham or anything like that.I don't know.
I mean, like Demarcus Robinson, is that preferable?I'm not sure.So what do you think?What would you tell the Tyree kill manager?
I would put Demarcus Robinson ahead of John O. Smith, but I think John O. Smith's a fine guy to carry as well.Hopefully just place.I mean, it's a wrist.He's fine.
It's not even his catching wrist.Yeah.Yeah.So so. Is there anything?Yeah, it's Marcus Robinson, Johnny Smith.Anything else there?No, I don't think so.No other players from that game.Okay, and then Nico Collins.So Tankdell is going to play.
Nico Collins has been activated, but he's apparently a game time decision.What do you make of this one?This is Sunday night.This stinks too.
Yeah, so hopefully like we received word at the beginning of the week that he basically passed all of his tests and was fine.And then he didn't practice and so then they get a partial practice on Friday.
I am kind of just expecting Nico Collins to play, but one of those guys that we just told you that you could pick up for Tyree kill.You could do the same for Nico Collins.You could do that also with a Dalton Schultz.
But I, like I said, I'm not, I'm not planning on leaving Nego Collins on the bench, any of my leaks.
Okay.Uh, more news items here, then we'll get to your questions in a little bit.Drake London expected to play a Mari Cooper is questionable thoughts on the bills, wide receivers.
Khalil Shakir is in that Calvin Ridley range of a really good number three wide receiver, a really suspect number two wide receiver.I don't really want to use Amari Cooper even if he's active.
He didn't hardly even have a role in their most recent game. Yeah, that he was played in.Yeah.Oh God, it's such a and he's been terrible all season long.
Yeah.Well, yeah, except for that first and he's injured with Buffalo.All right, Michael Pittman is out.Jalen McMillan is questionable.They have a 1 p.m.Game against San Francisco, so we'll know early if Jalen McMillan is playing.
I think the last two times he played, McMillan had eight or nine targets.I know he didn't do much with it, but any interest in McMillan if he plays, he's kind of a desperation boom bust flex. Chris Olave is going on IR.Cedric Wilson Jr.is out.
Is there anyone that's going to be significant to catch passes for the Saints today against the Falcons?
I think Alvin Kamara might catch a couple.Taysom Hill, also a good start at tight end.And if you're really desperate, I think Jawan Johnson might have a good day.
Debo Samuel and Juwan Jennings are going to play.Mike Williams will play, but you know, we don't know how many snaps, typically not a lot for guys get traded.And Tennessee cornerback LeJarrius Snead is out.
That past event and also Quandre Diggs is out for the season.So good matchup for Justin Herbert in the passing game.We're going to take a break and we're going to answer your questions when we come back on Fantasy Football Today Express.

Welcome back everybody.I am banning users from the chat.These bots.I love it.Very therapeutic.Uh, here's a question.Jordan Mason.Can't start him anymore.Tank Dell or Amari Cooper.We're going with Tank Dell.
Uh, Pollard or Chuba Hubbard, Chuba Hubbard.I will go with Chuba.Gough or Kyler Murray.I will go with Kyler Murray.Tank Dell or Marvin Harrison Jr.Tank Dell.Tyrone Tracy or David Montgomery.Tyrone Tracy.Nico or neighbors.
Uh, you got to play neighbors this morning, Quinton Johnston or Tony Pollard.
I will go with woof.That's a really close one.
I'm full PPR, but I'll still go Pollard Ray Davis or DeMario Douglas.
I'd probably rather start to Mario.
All right.We need three wide receivers here.We've got Nico Collins, CD lamb, Devante Adams, Josh Downs, and DeAndre Hopkins.
Ooh. So I'm definitely starting lamb.I'm definitely starting.I'd, I'd probably just go lamb Adams downs in this situation.I'd like to wait though, but I don't want to drop any of those guys.Yeah, boy, that is tough.
That's thanks.Sorry.Tough call there.Um, waddle or Westbrook Akina.
And this is a week and I know you don't like to do this, but like it may also be impacted by whether you had Joe Burrow or Lamar Jackson or Jamar Chase.Like we had 70 point swings in some leagues.
I'm ahead of 100 to one against Jacob Gibbs in one league right now.So if you're way behind, wait on Nico.If you, if you've got a little lead, play it safe.I would go waddle over Westbrook.
Who did he start?They got him one point.Justice Hill.Oh yeah.That's not good.Uh, Dalton Kincaid or Hunter Henry PPR. I will go with Hunter Henry McBride or Otten McBride Devante Smith or CD lamb.
It is CD lamb.I, I still think CD lamb is a top 12 wide receiver this week and rest of season, but not top five.Right.But Devante Smith's not either.
Yeah, no, I'm just clarifying, uh, Hopkins waddle or Harrison jr.
That full PPR, so that's the worst format for Marvin Harrison Jr., so it's not him.I will go Hopkins.
Is it worth the risk on Waddle?Because like, what if Tyreek doesn't play?
And Devon Aitchin will probably have 12 catches.
Okay.Sam Darnold or Patrick Mahomes?
Darnold.I will go Darnold.
And pick two here.Hopkins, Downs, Brian Thomas Jr.
DJ Moore, Marvin Harrison Jr., or Bucky Irving, PPR?
And we'll do one more here.How about Debo Samuel or Tony Pollard?Debo.Ooh, French toast or Belgian waffle?French toast.Waffle.Thank you for watching, everybody.We will talk to you at 9 a.m.Eastern with Fantasy Football Today.
