It's not easy to figure out the roles for Juju Smith-Schuster, the 49ers pass catchers and the Broncos pass catchers. We don't know what to expect from Michael Thomas. We'll try to hash it out on today's show! We start with some key stats (3:50) for some of these players who are tough to project. We're talking Saquon Barkley's inefficiency, Tim Patrick's red zone role and Michael Thomas without Drew Brees ... Will Juju Smith-Schuster get back to his old self now that he is on the Chiefs (15:15)? Which team's passing game is tougher to project: Denver or San Francisco (24:15)? Does it make the most sense to just wait for Tim Patrick if you want a piece of this passing game? And how the heck are you supposed to come up with projections for Michael Thomas after missing basically a year and a half (33:15)? ... We debate Saquon Barkley (38:40) and Ezekiel Elliott (43:30). Jamey tells you why he's waiting for Tony Pollard and skipping Zeke for the most part ... Your emails at fantasyfootball@cbsi.com
