00:03 Saquon Barkley, since he's returned, he's got a lot of action too.
00:05 24 carries, 21 carries, and 36 carries last week against the New York Jets for
00:10 128 yards.
00:12 Now this week he faces the 30th ranked rush defense of the Las Vegas Raiders.
00:17 So I love the over on whatever the number you could throw at me for
00:20 Saquon Barkley attempts today.
00:22 The question is, what does that look like from a fantasy standpoint?
00:25 Because he's 8600 over on Fandul, 7900 over on DK.
00:30 This is another guy, George.
00:31 He is going to see his five targets a game,
00:34 probably gonna catch three of them.
00:36 Last week he was held to no receiving yards on those three catches though.
00:40 So the Jets defense did a good job here, but this is the Raiders defense.
00:42 Again, my only concern is, do you get this really motivated Raiders team at home?
00:47 This fresh look where all of a sudden they're playing a different brand of
00:50 football we're used to seeing and does that affect Saquon Barkley at that price?
00:55 We know Buck is gonna get fed today.
00:57 You're right, we know that.
00:59 Last week was sort of an aberration because Danny DeVito,
01:01 they just didn't want him to throw the ball, right?
01:03 >> [LAUGH] >> Tommy DeVito.
01:05 >> That's Tommy DeVito to you.
01:07 How dare you disrespect- >> Like you ever said the joke all week
01:10 with Danny DeVito, come on.
01:11 >> I haven't, because I have great respect for the man and the artist.
01:15 And I always support my Italian brethren, that's what I do.
01:18 >> Yeah, so they didn't trust him, all right.
01:21 It was a final, remember last week, Daniel Jones wasn't gonna play this week.
01:25 He was gonna come back from a Dallas game next week.
01:27 So they get an injury, yeah, he's healthy, he can come back, he can play.
01:30 Funny how that works in the NFL.
01:31 So I could see them trying to protect Jones a little bit and
01:35 give him the ball even more to Barkley here.
01:37 What you should be doing anyway, you don't have a passing offense there.
01:40 Darren Wall is out, right, he's gone, shocking.
01:42 Who didn't know this was coming?
01:44 You don't have any wide receivers.
01:45 I mean, Hyatt, Wondell, these guys are all threes.
01:49 Maybe a two at best there.
01:51 So you don't have much of a passing.
01:52 Do you know your offensive line's not very good?
01:54 It's Barkley all day today, all day.
01:57 I think the difference between Barkley and Camaro is I expect Barkley to have more
01:59 yardage, Camaro to get a lot more receptions, and
02:01 better chance for a touchdown with Saquon Barkley.
02:05 So maybe you wanna save a little bit of cash to go with Barkley.
02:07 I can understand that he's gonna get fed early and often today.
02:10 You already said it, Raiders, 30th rushing defense.
02:12 There's no reason not.
02:14 This is not Arthur Smith.
02:15 All right, they're not gonna try and be cute.
02:17 Barkley's gonna get the ball left and right.
02:18 >> No.
