starting with an interesting quarterback this week Kyler Murray and Joshua dos where Kyler Murray designated to return from IR last week it opened up his 21-day practice window the upcoming schedule for the Cardinals Baltimore and Cleveland that scares you Atlanta and Houston so a tough four game stretch here but if Kyler Murray returns he's fantasy relevant he's a top 10 fantasy quarterback like that's where he would be drafted if he had been healthy this year there's a chance he comes back in
week eight and whether it's week eight or week nine in 58% of leagues a top 10 fantasy quarterback a proven fantasy quarterback on an offense that's been more competent than we thought you know with Michael Wilson with Hollywood Brown um with you know kind of mishmash of running game I mean Kyler Murray's not going to be out there if he can't run around and do Kyler Murray type thing so yes he's an important grabbing stash and I would argue that even if you have you're like I don't need a quarte
rback because I got Lamar Jackson I got Josh Allen whatever I'm feeling good about myself whatever give yourself a trade asset because if Kyler Murray comes back and balls out which is what I think he will do then you've got something to you can trade to a quarterback needy team you never know when somebody could go down Jay you said earlier in the show Gardner muu not great in real life so far but great in fantasy because he'll take chances he's available in 92% of leagues the Colts have the Sa
ints coming up this week gner has eight turnovers in the past two games it's unbelievable impressive work from mchu but he does have 300 plus passing yards in those it's it's surprising the commanders haven't traded for him yet with that kind of rate unbelievable if he could just increase the number of sacks he gets he could for us yeah it's unreal uh look mu I think he is look it's not a great matchup against the Saints but certainly they've been better against the run and I think that he's pro
viding value for down Pitman he is throwing a lot so I think in deeper leagues I mean the fact that there's more mobile than he gets credit for yeah I mean he ran it into the end zone against the Browns I don't know why they're favorite in that game I like the Saints to win as one of the Half Point dogs but muu I mean in super Flex leagues he'll be viable just because you know he's a starting quarterback and he's starting for 300 plus yards two weeks in a row yeah Baker Mayfield for the bucks av
ailable in 67% leagues they're on the short week Thursday night football against the bills who Matthew you said earlier the bills defense a lot of injuries and they just don't look like themselves right now is Baker a viable streaming option on a week without any buys uh potentially um although Baker Mayfield just popped up I literally just got an alert as we're sitting here uh that he popped up on Monday's injury report Baker Mayfield being quoted re-aggravated what I did against the Saints not
hing serious just a pain tolerance thing that is according to uh Brianna dicks uh anyway but just so a heads up there that maybe not 100% you don't love him on Buffalo but listen two of the last three games he's had over 275 total yards he's had at least 16 fantasy points in four or six games this year he's got Mike Evans he's got Chris Godwin he's got a run game that's non-existent so the only way they're moving the ball is through the air with those two guys and Trey Palmer as well so the bill
s who haven't looked like the bills recently Matt Jones just lit them up like you can say like Baker ain't great but like he's at least as good as M Jones who literally just threw for 300 yards against them so Baker Mayfield at Buffalo flow on the short week bills have allowed at least 25 points in two of the last three our last quarterback Jay Desmond Ritter against the Titans he's available in 86% of leagues but it is the titans this is why it's important to come to the pre-show meeting becaus
e you could have voiced your opposition to having to be the one to talk up Desmond Ritter I opted out of that and gave that to you because I was there and you were not Jay Croucher listen I love talking about QB 17 on the season Desmond R 250 plus passing yards three strike games giving you a bit on the ground as well rushing touchdowns in two of his last three and he gets the Titans who just traded Kevin B and didn't have a good secondary to begin with so I think that he is actually a viable fa
ntasy option all right all right as you see here if you're watching Barry's top quarterback waiver Targets in order
