00:00Okay, AJ Brown wide receiver six. Let's get to him. Philadelphia Eagles projected fantasy
00:07points to 30. George in November of last year, we were talking about this player being the
00:14number one overall pick in fantasy football. And then the wheels fell off. Philadelphia
00:21Eagles like nobody's business. I mean, still an incredible year, 1456 in terms of receiving
00:26yards and seven touchdowns. But George, we were doing that conversation here on this
00:30show. AJ Brown is going to be like the number one or number two overall pick. But the Eagles,
00:34my gosh, they fell so flat at the end.
00:38And it was 10 to 1. And as you said, the wheels fell off the train crash dumps the fire. Then
00:43got rid of both coordinators here. Big Dom gets suspended. I seem to be a big thing as
00:48well here. It's just a strange, strange ending to that season. They played like crap in that
00:52playoff game. I do worry somewhat about the change of coordinator. All right. But still,
00:58he's a focus point of the offense. I think the fact that they have Saquon Barkley, probably
01:01a good thing, right? That takes some of the safety. You have to creep a little closer
01:05to the line of scrimmage. You know what I mean? Creep a little closer. Devonta Smith
01:08is a legitimate weapon on the other side. Dallas got a good tight end. So I'm bullish
01:13on AJ Brown. He was my number one wide receiver taking him to Scott Fishbowl in that league.
01:18So I am bullish on AJ Brown. Those numbers last year, I'll take those numbers right there
01:22and run. You're gonna give me 40, I will be thrilled. Maybe I'll get a few more touchdowns
01:27on number seven here. But you give me 40, 56, I am not complaining whatsoever. I think
01:32he probably doesn't quite hit the yardage total this year. But I think the touchdowns
01:36make it harder. So we get a little bit of an offset there. But yes, I'm an AJ Brown
01:41guy.
01:42Yeah, a lot of red zone targets for Philly handled different than some other teams. You
01:48saw that graphic. He had seven touchdowns last year for a guy being drafted this high.
01:52That's not a lot. But you have hurts on the run. And they set up that tush push so many
01:58times near the goal line, which is why those receivers don't just get a lot of touchdowns
02:02like some other teams. His yardage total 1225 and a half on the season. And so 1400 last
02:10year. This is an interesting number. I wonder why FanDuel has this 200 yards lower. That's
02:15a little odd. No. I think it's because of once again, Barclay, the running game, they're
02:23assuming that they're gonna run the ball more here, different kind of I would tell him what
02:27does like the to run the ball. But Kellen Moore also likes to take shots into the secondary.
02:31He's the ex Cowboy offensive coordinator. He likes to take shots. So that that should
02:34help his total as well here. I think the fact that Devonta Smith's on the other side as
02:38well. He's a legitimate. I mean, he's not a one, but he's a really, really good too.
02:43So he's got to get his opportunities as well, which will take away spots. That being said,
02:47there should be more than enough opportunities to go around here. Yeah, I would agree. Did
02:51Brown miss the playoff game last year for them to wasn't he hurt at the end of the season?
02:54Something like that. Am I remembering that correctly? I think he missed the game. I think
02:58he was banged up. Yeah, I thought so at the end of the year.
