00:00But I do think the dynasty question has to be asked on John Mechie, who finally is playing
00:07and playing a little bit more for the Houston Texans coming out of the University of Alabama.
00:11People forget how good Mechie was at Alabama.
00:14He was fantastic.
00:15He did score a touchdown for the first time this past week.
00:18George, I think as time goes on, he's going to get more involved in the offense.
00:20He's a nice stash, I think, in dynasty for me, but it would be hard to start him, though.
00:25I like what you're saying there.
00:26Yeah, I like Mechie.
00:27I do.
00:28I think you need Niko Collins to play Monday night, all right?
00:30Now you got Collins, you got Dell.
00:32It should be a heavy Joe Mixon game.
00:34Dallas can't stop the run, or at least has a lot of trouble stopping the run.
00:37So how much Mechie are we going to get here?
00:39He's probably going to be touchdown dependent.
00:40I think he'll have some catches, but to have that 12 to 15 point day, you probably need
00:45a touchdown.
00:46Which, hey, maybe Houston will blow out Dallas at home like everybody else does.
00:49So a good chance for it.
00:50I like the player, just not so sure the situation is great now.
00:54If Collins is inactive for any reason, and I don't expect that, by the way, I do expect
00:57Collins to play.
00:58Over here, he's only going to play 20 to 25 snaps.
01:00I am much more interested in Mechie.
01:03You know, I think Aaron Jones is probably going to play this week, but I think if you
01:06have Aaron Jones, you may want to grab Cam Akers for this week.
01:09Akers is seeing like 20% of the share in terms of targets and rushing.
01:15It's not really doing a ton, George, but it's like live body NFL running back, kind of got
01:21to have him.
01:22Jones missed some practice time this week.
01:25I mean, I'm in a desperate situation in one league.
01:26I got to start him, but I can't recommend it.
01:29But if you have Jones, I think you have to.
01:32Jones had a chest injury.
01:33He was taken off the injury report yesterday, so he should be good to go.
01:36So you don't want to start Akers over Jones.
01:38I think if you're grabbing Akers, you're doing it in case Jones gets hurt again, which he's
01:42gotten hurt several times this year.
01:43He seems to be a ticking time bomb where that injury is coming, so I don't mind holding
01:46on to Akers.
01:47Once again, I should say you're hoping for an injury, but you're covering yourself in
01:51case of one.
01:52So if you're not starting Akers over Jones this week, Jones should be good to go.
01:56I know Sam Donaldson can get going, maybe we'll get some fantasy points out of the Vikings.
