The two teams that I, you know, I just went to the schedule grid and and went to see who the Raiders were playing.

It's the Giants, not as interesting, and who the Bengals were playing, cause I, I honestly don't see a path to the Bengals being a, being a competent, being a, you know, a top half of the league sort of defense this year.
Like, I think they're gonna be just about as generous as they were last season.
And oh, look, they get the Cardinals.
Um, the Bengals last year gave up the most fantasy points to opposing tight ends.
We're gonna get, we're gonna get Trey McBride in week 17 against the Bengals.
That's That's almost enough reason for me to draft him over Brock Bauers if we're being completely honest here, like McBride's coming off the season in which he had the worst touchdown look like basically of all time, still caught 111 balls.
Um, no reason to think he can't catch another 100 balls this year.
He's great, and again that matchup with the Bengals in week 17 when you need them most, is going to be so appealing.

4 speedy WRs to watch for Arizona Cardinals in offseason
Most believe that the Arizona Cardinals need a speed receiver as part of their offensive rotation. That makes sense. While Marvin Harrison Jr. and Michael Wilson are not slow, they are not known for their long speed. Greg Dortch is one of the quickest players in terms of elusiveness and change of direction, but he is the slowest in the room in terms of long speed (with a 4.59-second 40 at his pro day). The Cardinals have some receivers on the roster to watch who can perhaps add that element. Advertisement Darren Urban noted the addition of Quez Watkins. He isn't the only fast guy, although he is the fastest. Wide receivers to watch to fill No. 3-4 WR role Quez Watkins: Watkins ran the 40 in 4.35 seconds and is six feet tall. He had over 600 yards in 2022, averaging 15 yards per catch with the Eagles. Zay Jones: Jones was playing like the WR3 in terms of snaps by the end of last season. He only had eight receptions in 2024 after he was suspended five games and then worked his way into the rotation. He had 823 receiving yards in 2022 for Jacksonville. He is 6-foot-2 and posted a 4.45-second 40 when he come out of college. Advertisement Simi Fehoko: Fehoko is the one receiver the Cardinals added new to the room since free agency began. He is 6-foot-4 and 218 pounds and ran the 40 in 4.44 seconds. He adds length and speed. The Cardinals guaranteed almost all his salary and paid him $250,000 to sign. He had only six catches for 106 yards last season for the L.A. Chargers but played 244 offensive snaps, his first extended playing time on offense in his career. Xavier Weaver: Weaver made the team as an undrafted rookie last year. He is 6-foot-1 and 180 pounds, and his pro day 40 time was 4.42 seconds. The team seems to like him and he got a little playing time late last season.

Who could win MVP outside of Judge, Ohtani?
Who could win MVP outside of Judge, Ohtani? Yahoo Sports national MLB insider Russell Dorsey runs through some dark horse candidates for Most Valuable player outside of last year's winners. View more Video transcript Well, we're over a quarter of the way through the season and surprise, surprise, Aaron Judge and Shohe Otane are front runners for AL and NL MVP. Advertisement But in a world where we took those two guys off the ballot, who would the other contenders for the award be? Well, there are plenty of familiar names. In the National League, Freddie Freeman is having his best season since he won the MVP award in 2020. Kyle Schwarber has been the heart and soul of the Philadelphia Phillies, and Corbin Carroll is proving he is one of the best young dynamic superstars in all of Major League Baseball. On the American League side, Alex Bregman might be having his best season since he was runner for MVP in 2019. Max Freed has been as good as any starting pitcher in Major League Baseball and been exactly what the Yankees have needed. Advertisement And last but certainly not least, Kyle Riley is showing that he is the best catcher in all of Major League Baseball. Now, if things continue as they've been going, not only willhotani and Aaron Judge win MVP, but we will have back to back MVPs in the same league for the first time in MLB history.
