00:02 >> Now great for fantasy, maybe not as good for reality is Jameis Winston,
00:06 who we haven't seen in a while get the opportunity like he did yesterday.
00:10 In fact, the Saints through the years, Matt, have really gone more to Taysom Hill
00:14 than they have to Jameis Winston, but they were really at no choice yesterday, but
00:18 to insert Winston in, and what did we see?
00:21 We saw the good, we saw the bad, this is exactly who he is.
00:26 I think that from my perspective watching this, he made Chris Olave
00:30 a lot more viable in fantasy.
00:32 I guess the question is, Matt, is if you're going to pick him up,
00:37 you obviously have to be sure that Carr is gonna be out.
00:41 And then the other point is that you're playing in a fantasy league where you lose
00:43 points for picks.
00:45 I don't know what kind of value he would have because, simply put,
00:49 I don't anticipate this being like the Tampa offense that he had several years ago.
00:55 >> No, I agree with that, and I think Derrick Carr too is one of these guys who
00:59 just comes back, he just always comes back.
01:01 And I just, I don't know, unless the shoulder injury is more serious than we
01:05 think, I think he'll be back and he'll be starting after the bye.
01:08 But if we assume Jameis Winston is starting, what's his fantasy value?
01:13 Well, it should be decent.
01:14 They have pretty good receivers, even with Mike Thomas getting hurt yesterday.
01:19 And he'll put the ball in the air, he'll take chances, sometimes that's good.
01:23 Like you said, sometimes that's bad.
01:25 It's a roller coaster with Jameis.
01:27 I haven't looked at their full schedule down the stretch, but
01:30 I do think that there's potential with Jameis.
01:33 I just don't know if I really trust him to actually start to hold on to
01:36 the starting job.
01:37 They can always go run heavy too, you never know with that team.
01:40 So, man, I don't have any New Orleans players on my roster and
01:44 I'm glad I don't, quite frankly, as good as Alvin Kamara has been and
01:47 Hill and Olave at times.
01:49 They're just a tough team to own players from.
