00:00We're talking trade or fade players right now, right guys?
00:03Either we're going to keep or try and get rid of here, or maybe just not start here.
00:07Our first player, New York Jets, and boy, are they a big topic of conversation, right?
00:12You talk to the two most disappointing teams in the NFL this year, have got to be the Jets
00:16and the Cowboys, right?
00:17Bigger things were expected from both here, and neither one's going to reach anywhere
00:20near the pinnacle of the NFL here.
00:23I wonder if Adams, if he had to do it all over again, maybe he'd rather just still be
00:28with the Raiders.
00:29It really hasn't worked out with Aaron Rodgers and the Jets here.
00:32He dropped a touchdown last week, which, once again, cost me a week.
00:36Not the Adams drop, but Rodgers not getting a touchdown pass, so thanks.
00:39I needed that to win a week.
00:40Didn't happen there.
00:41The Jets are a mess.
00:43Theoretically, they should be better.
00:45They seem to have stars all over the place, right?
00:46You've got Devontae Adams, you've got Gary Wilson, you've got Brees Hall, whatever you
00:50think about Rodgers, but the offensive line is putrid.
00:52No Tyron Smith this week.
00:54He's out for the Jets here, so it's not getting any better.
00:56Not that Smith is all that great.
00:58He's been playing poorly anyway.
00:59What I'm trying to tell you is, I don't trust him.
01:04I don't trust his whole offense here.
01:06Rodgers is not Rodgers anymore.
01:07He says he might come back next year.
01:09Good for you.
01:10But he's not the same guy anymore.
01:11I don't want to start him, so I'm fading him.
01:14As far as trading, listen, I don't think anybody's trading you for him, so good luck with that.
01:17I don't see anybody wanting him right now, but you can't start him right now.
01:20I might want to still keep him on my roster, just in case the Jets figure it out, but it's
01:25hard to like this guy.
01:26Alright, next guy, also a wide receiver.
01:28Another team struggling, but they're winning games while struggling, and that's the Minnesota
01:32Vikings.
01:33Alright, now Sam Donald has not played well in weeks.
01:36I think he's quarterback 25 or something like that now over the last six weeks, so he's
01:40not getting you what you needed.
01:41You watched him last week against Jacksonville.
01:43It was bad.
01:44Alright, putrid.
01:45Ugly.
01:46I think he was able to set the three times while targeting Justin Jefferson.
01:50Now, Jordan Addison, listen, he's not going to be the number one guy.
01:54We know JJ's the number one guy.
01:55And then you got Aaron Jones going to get his shares of carries here, so Addison's somewhere
01:59after that.
02:00And his targets have probably been hurt by the return of TJ Hawkinson.
02:03But I'm not willing to give up on him yet.
02:05Not yet.
02:06Once again, he may not be startable.
02:08You know, you can't trade him for anything.
02:10He may not be startable.
02:11He's on that border flex guy for me, so I don't want to give up with him.
02:13I'm fading him as far as starting this week.
02:15I'm not fading him for the rest of the year.
02:16Alright, so I do want to keep Addison with me.
02:18I'm an Addison guy.
02:19I've got him in a deep dynasty league.
02:21Alright, so I have to start him in that league because, once again, it's a 16-team league,
02:2640-man roster.
02:27It's crazy.
02:28So, I'll start him there because I don't have any other options here.
02:30I have several injuries.
02:32But other than that, no thanks this week, this year, for this week.
02:36Like I said, I do like the guy, though.
02:37I don't want to give up on him.
02:39Not yet.
02:40Another wide receiver here.
02:41And, you know, the question is trade or fade Christian Kirk of the Jacksonville Jaguars.
02:46The real question would be, do you want to have anybody on the Jacksonville Jaguars?
02:50I mean, if Trevor Lawrence was healthy, I mean, no, I'm out on Kirk.
02:55Way out on Kirk.
02:56I am out pretty much on everybody there.
02:58It's just, it's not working out.
03:00I think Kirk is on IR anyway, so he's done for the season as it is here.
03:04But if you're in a keeper league, let's just say you're, I think Kirk A would have been
03:07traded at the deadline, if, if he didn't get hurt.
03:11I think he would have been traded with one of those receivers that was going, maybe he
03:13ends up with Pittsburgh or something like that.
03:15But if you're in a keeper league, dynasty league, I'd move on.
03:18I wouldn't release him, mind you, but I'd be looking to trade him in the off season
03:21here.
03:22Trevor Lawrence is not the quarterback we thought he'd be, right?
03:24He's kind of ugly there.
03:25He's got the shoulder injury now anyway, so Lord knows what he's gonna do for the rest
03:28of the season, but he's not that quarterback.
03:30I don't think Kirk's that guy.
03:31He's more of a wide receiver too, not a wide receiver one.
03:34Maybe it'll work out in Jacksonville, if Brian Thomas develops into that true wide receiver
03:37one where Kirk can clear out the states by running deep patterns here.
03:41You got Engelman over the middle, Thomas, your true wide receiver one with the intermediate
03:44routes and then Kirk.
03:45I mean, theoretically it should work.
03:47I just don't think it will.
03:48So yeah, I am trading Kirk as fast as I can in really any kind of league I can possibly
03:54think of here.
03:55All right, next guy, we're going back to the Vikings here, Aaron Jones running back.
03:59Now, you know, Craig and I say the same thing all the time, running back with a pulse.
04:02All right?
04:03You're keeping him.
04:04Jones has more than a pulse, all right?
04:07That being said, he does seem to get banged up in so many games.
04:11You know, depending on what your running back room looks like or what you're getting back,
04:14I would look to trade him because I think sooner or later he's going to get hurt again.
04:18I think Minnesota is sort of playing down to their competition.
04:22That's more on Sam Donald.
04:23But if Sam Donald doesn't pick it up, teams are going to be looking to take away Aaron
04:27Jones.
04:28Those safeties start to creep closer to the line of scrimmage here.
04:30You know, you're not playing cover two anymore.
04:32You're playing, you know, a little bit more regular defense here to stop that running
04:37game.
04:38So I am willing to trade Aaron Jones.
04:39Not for anything.
04:40I'm not looking to get rid of him.
04:41But if I get a decent return, a return I like back, yeah, I'm willing to trade Aaron Jones.
04:45That being said, if you can't, you're starting him.
04:47They play Tennessee this week.
04:48Theoretically, it's a good matchup.
04:49You think he can get to the end zone here.
04:52So I said, I am not dumping Jones for nothing.
04:55But I am, I like to see what's out there.
