About this episode
Nick Whalen is joined by John McKechnie to break down the top news of the day, including the latest developments in the Brandon Aiyuk saga. The guys also discuss Josh Downs' injury, as well as whether Christian McCaffrey is still the 1.1. If not, who are you taking over CMC? Later, they debate whether a handful of mid-to-late-round running backs and receivers -- including Zach Charbonnet, Rico Dowdle and Jakobi Meyers -- are good fantasy values at their current ADPs. 0:30: Intro 2:00: Christian McCaffrey’s calf injury 3:15: Are you still taking CMC with the first pick? 6:00: If not CMC, who do you take? 8:40: Brandon Aiyuk trade talks continuing 15:30: Aiyuk in Pittsburgh hypothetical 18:45: Aiyuk vs. Pickens 20:35: Josh Downs out several weeks 27:50: Zach Charbonnet 31:25: Kimani Vidal 35:30: Rico Dowdle 39:25: Kendre Miller 42:15: Jakobi Meyers 45:20: Jaxon Smith-Njigba 48:15: Shaheed, Bateman, Tolbert 49:05: Dylan Laube + Raiders’ backfield ----- Circa Circa Million VI and Survivor are back and bigger than ever with $16 Million in total prizes.
