This episode is brought to you by Chevrolet.

Chevy drivers need a truck that shows up the same way they do. That's why Chevy Silverado is number one in manufacturer loyalty, so they can go where others won't. Make their own way there and always get it done. And as long as Chevy people keep showing up, we'll keep building trucks that do the same. Chevrolet, together, let's drive. Visit chevy.com/trucks to explore the lineup.

Welcome to The Ringer Fantasy Football Show.

Danny Heifetz (2:42)

My name is Danny Heifetz, and I'm joined by Danny Kelly and Craig Horlbeck. And we're going over all the players you must add entering week five. After week four, we're going to go through each position by position, give our number one player from that position. And if we well, we're probably going to no matter what we agree on, we're going to do a trivia tiebreaker just to see what order we get to pick those players in so we can help you decide who to add.

It is the beginning of bye weeks. And it's just two teams. It's the Panthers and the Chiefs. But it's the beginning of buys and injuries. And now it's like we're maybe getting to the place where you might actually need to just pick someone up off waivers and add them to your lineup, especially if you have like Saquon Barkley or someone. Are we doing two carries Saquon now, Craig? Is that where we're going?

Craig Horlbeck (3:19)

Seven yard Saquon, I think is the nickname.

Danny Heifetz (3:22)

Seven yard Saquon. So we're going to go through all the positions, triviate, we have some funny mills at the end.

And again, the continuation of roll your windows up songs. Is that what we're calling this?

Craig Horlbeck (3:36)

Songs you're embarrassed you love.

Danny Heifetz (3:38)

Songs you're embarrassed you love. If you were to red light, would you roll the windows up to listen to the song?

Danny Kelly (3:43)

Heifetz, do you have one ready for that? Cause I think it's your turn, bud.

Danny Heifetz (3:46)

Oh, I do. Oh, I have one.

Danny Kelly (3:47)

Okay.

Danny Heifetz (3:48)

Without further ado, though, Danny Kelly, running back, Sehwag Sehquon has gone down. We don't currently have an update. We're recording this Monday before Monday in football. But I think safe to presume Sehquon will miss at least one week. So with that said, who's your number one running back to add after week?

Craig Horlbeck (4:01)

Leading the witness, your honor.

Danny Kelly (4:03)

It's kind of a weird week, not a great week for running backs, I would say. I want to say real quick, Manuel Wilson for the Seahawks, he's currently 48% rostered on Yahoo. Do you guys want to include him or just keep him out of this conversation? Just mention him at the top here.

Danny Heifetz (4:18)

I think if Emmanuel Wilson's available in your league, he would come before all of the players we're about to talk about.
