00:03 You mentioned Sam Laporta's tight end play.
00:05 He's 7,300 on Fandle, 6,200 on DK.
00:08 And I'll throw one more out at you for time.
00:10 Trey McBride, 6,700 on Fandle, 6, even on DK.
00:14 What can we do with both of these players, Joe?
00:16 Look, they have been both just absolutely tremendous.
00:21 I think if you're looking at players that are getting so much work in their
00:25 respective offense, like we saw Sam Laporta in week one,
00:28 established himself and he has been great ever since.
00:31 Now he's the number one total cumulative fantasy point guy at tight end above
00:35 Travis Kelsey right now.
00:36 We'll see what changes here today potentially.
00:39 But look, seven receptions last week on 12 targets for 84 yards.
00:43 He is part of this offense.
00:44 He's exploded in some big games.
00:45 He's been quiet in some others, but that's the nature of tight end.
00:48 And then Trey McBride, you look at what he's done, even cheaper.
00:52 He is a guy that you can play as a flex today.
00:54 And we never talk about that at tight end.
00:56 Last week, I had a lot of likely and McBride lineups together.
00:59 And there's another guy to getting basically averaging nine targets in the
01:03 last six weeks.
01:04 You're going to take those nine targets to the bank again, most tight ends.
01:07 They have that up and down streak in them, but these guys are getting
01:10 opportunity.
01:11 At the.
01:11 Point.
01:13 Yeah.
