Hopefully, hopefully we can we can see each 84 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 1: other there. Yeah, exactly'd be great. It would be great. Um, 85 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 1: all right, Well, since we are getting into training camp, 86 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: I wanted to have you come on and talk about 87 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,840 Speaker 1: some some training camp storylines. Also do some stories. I 88 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: want to know whether you believe some of these stories 89 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 1: are true, whether they're not, and then at the end 90 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,839 Speaker 1: we'll do some rapid fire just fun non football questions 91 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: and that sort of thing. So, so let's start. I 92 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 1: put together five storylines that I think are interesting to 93 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,359 Speaker 1: watch during training camp. It wanted to get your thoughts. 94 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: The first one is the Jaguars. They bring in Urban Meyer, 95 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 1: their head coach, that they draft Trevor Lawrence number one overall. Uh, 96 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 1: They've got a lot of talent there. We're still trying 97 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,919 Speaker 1: to figure them out. And so my first question to you, Mauricio, 98 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 1: is when you look at that backfield with Travis Etien 99 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:17,359 Speaker 1: and James Robinson, how do you expect they're going to 100 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 1: to split up the workload between those guys. It's tough 101 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 1: to predict that backfield. I think it's an interesting one 102 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: one to look in training camp and and preseason. I 103 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 1: like a lot of Travis A. Tin as a player. 104 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 1: I know that James Robinson was amazing his first year, 105 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: as said, no drafted free agent, but he was benefit 106 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 1: from a lot of polume. He wasn't quite that effective. 107 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 1: He was running back three two in the yards perit 108 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: touch running back for eighteen break I went breakaway run rate. 109 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 1: So I think the Travis A Tin from Capital Draft, 110 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,839 Speaker 1: you know, a first round peak, and the talent that 111 00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 1: he has, he has to have the big role right away. 112 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:05,039 Speaker 1: I am expecting a fifty fIF split for the start 113 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 1: of the season and probably as the season goes on. 114 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 1: Sixty four for Travisen sort of short of breaking my 115 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 1: heart because I and I like I like Travis A. 116 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:19,279 Speaker 1: T N. I think he's really good, But part of 117 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 1: me really still is hoping I can get a draft value, 118 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 1: a draft bargain with James Robinson. Um. I totally agree 119 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 1: that part of what made him so good last year 120 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,480 Speaker 1: was the volume, and and some of that happened because 121 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,600 Speaker 1: because everything around him right, you had guys get hurt, 122 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:38,800 Speaker 1: you had guys who sat out the year because of 123 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:41,919 Speaker 1: covid um. But I'm still hoping there's a role. But 124 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,839 Speaker 1: I'm afraid you might be right that Travis A ten 125 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,600 Speaker 1: is really gonna take this thing over. Um. But I'm 126 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:51,040 Speaker 1: still I'm still drafting James Robinson like the middle rounds, 127 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 1: hoping for James t Rebinson is going to retain the 128 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 1: goal line work, right, so maybe there can be value 129 00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 1: if the ADP falls to round eight, round round nine, 130 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 1: I can think that he can be a very good 131 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 1: value there. That's cool. My other fear is that Tim 132 00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: Tebow is going to steal some of those goal lines. Good, Okay, great, 133 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 1: Please know you thank you for saying that, because that's 134 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:18,120 Speaker 1: really how I feel. Uh. The other big question I 135 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 1: have about the Jaguars is what do you expect from 136 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence this year. I think we're going to expect 137 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 1: up and downs like any rookie QB. We know that 138 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 1: he has generational talent that he it's in the best situation, 139 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 1: is going to be the starter from week one. He 140 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 1: has good weapons around him. I love Laviska Chanal. He 141 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 1: has the Jhark Marvin Jones that came from a free agency. 142 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 1: Have him rank as my QB sixteen, But I think 143 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 1: that if he can produce rush yards paired game, he 144 00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: could be a borderline top fifteen. You know what? And 145 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 1: I it's someone asked me the other day, you know, 146 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 1: are we forgetting about the fact that Trevor Lawrence can 147 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: run with the football? Right? Like? We we we we 148 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 1: keep talking about you know when it comes to the rookies. 149 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: We talk about Trey Lance, and we talk about Justin Fields, 150 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 1: and I feel like we we have sort of forgotten 151 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 1: that Trevor Lawrence can run too. And I think, I 152 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 1: think you're right. And he hits that yards per game, 153 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 1: that's that's a pretty I feel like that's reasonable, that's 154 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 1: a that's a reasonable expectation. Right. Yeah, I didn't want 155 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 1: to go that far. Actually, I have him borderline QB twelve, 156 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 1: but I know I have to to lower expectations to 157 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 1: go down to planet there and QB fifteen sounds like good. No, 158 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 1: I feel like I feel like that's realistic. Um, you know. 159 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,560 Speaker 1: I I feel like people want him to sort of 160 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,959 Speaker 1: have the same kind of season that Justin Herbert did, uh, 161 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:51,959 Speaker 1: And I feel like Justin Herbert was great and he 162 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:56,079 Speaker 1: was way beyond expectation, and I feel like that's Uh, 163 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 1: if Trevor Lawrence is that, then that's awesome. UM, but 164 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 1: I feel like it's it's asking a lot to just 165 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 1: immediately expect that from him. You know what, what I'm 166 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:09,840 Speaker 1: expecting in fantasy points per game basis something that Joe 167 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:13,679 Speaker 1: Barrow did in his first games in last season. That's 168 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 1: what we can expect from Trevor Lawrence. I think that's yeah. 169 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:18,719 Speaker 1: I think that's fair. Uh. In an offense that I 170 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: think is gonna be really interesting to watch. Um. You know, 171 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:22,960 Speaker 1: they got a lot of pieces. We'll see if they 172 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 1: put it together, so that that should be interesting. UM. 173 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 1: No storyline keeping my eye on is the Titans offense. UM. 174 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 1: Two really big changes in that offense. Uh, one of 175 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 1: them being the offensive coordinator. Arthur Smith is gone. He's 176 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 1: the head coach in Atlanta. Now, Todd Downing takes over 177 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 1: as the offensive coordinator. UM. He says he wants to 178 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,679 Speaker 1: throw the football more because the other big changes they 179 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 1: got Julio Jones in a trade. Uh. Should we worry 180 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 1: about Derrick Henry maybe not getting the same number of 181 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 1: touches because the Titans might want to throw the ball more. 182 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:05,199 Speaker 1: I don't think too. We called Derrick Henry down here. 183 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: I love it, and I think he's athleticis him, He's talent, 184 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 1: what they paid for him, they have to use him, right. 185 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 1: He has been the anchor of that offense in the past, 186 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 1: and I think it's going to be the same even 187 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 1: with Julia Jones and Arthur Smith departure. I you know, 188 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 1: I said the other day that you could probably pencil 189 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 1: him in as you're rushing champion again this year, because 190 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 1: that's just how good he is. Um. The potential upside 191 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:39,560 Speaker 1: is maybe they throw him the ball more. UM. And 192 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 1: I know that probably, I know, I know it's not 193 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 1: necessarily his his the strongest part of his game. UM. 194 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 1: But even if he catches, you know, thirty thirty passes 195 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 1: this year, thirty to thirty five, that's a that's a 196 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 1: big boost for him, and I think that goes a 197 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: long way towards towards helping him out. So maybe we 198 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 1: are overreacting, UM, But I will ask. I mean, even 199 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 1: if they don't necessar so we throw the ball more, 200 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 1: are we overlooking Ryan Tannehill because he's been really good 201 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 1: the last couple of years. But I feel like we 202 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: don't talk about him in you know, one of those 203 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 1: upper tiers of quarterbacks. Yeah, I think we're over looking 204 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 1: just a little bit with him. He think he's been 205 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 1: valued a little bit lower than a d P QB 206 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 1: eleven quarterback twelve in that range. He was top ten 207 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen and twenty infancy points per game, but 208 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 1: he was he has been uber efficient, right, and probably 209 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:33,439 Speaker 1: that efficiency numbers are going to return to Planet Earth. 210 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 1: I gladly take him as my QB starter in my leagues, 211 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 1: but I'm leaning more to have economic code QB this year. 212 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,439 Speaker 1: But but Ryan Tannehill, actually it's a it's a very 213 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:50,080 Speaker 1: good quarterback, efficient, knows the offense. He's been productive for 214 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,680 Speaker 1: the last two years. And now he put Julio Jones 215 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:56,559 Speaker 1: on the equation and you have to to look for him, right. 216 00:11:57,720 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 1: Is that maybe? Is that? Maybe that's it. I feel 217 00:11:59,920 --> 00:12:01,439 Speaker 1: like you hit on it on something there when you 218 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 1: said he's efficient, right, and efficient is cool? Efficient is 219 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:08,680 Speaker 1: not exciting, And maybe that's why, maybe that's why we're 220 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 1: not talking about him as much, because you talk about 221 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 1: the Konami code guys, right that that we we've only 222 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,560 Speaker 1: seen what I think three or four games of Jalen 223 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:20,320 Speaker 1: Hurts as a starter, but people are way more excited 224 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 1: about Jalen Hurts than they are Ryan Tannehill. And maybe 225 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: it is Maybe it's just that efficiency is sort of 226 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 1: boring and actually market Ryan Tannehill can run right well, 227 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,439 Speaker 1: It's he's not going to to make three hundred draw 228 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 1: shards seen a season, but two hundred and fifty yards 229 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 1: It's it's very possible for him. I think so. And 230 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 1: I think we forget too that. You know, it used 231 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: to be the running joke that Ryan Tannehill was a 232 00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 1: wide receiver in college. Um, you know, and then afterwards 233 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 1: he transitioned to quarterback. But yeah, I mean he can. 234 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 1: He can run with the football. He just doesn't do 235 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 1: it maybe as much as some other guys there. Um 236 00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,679 Speaker 1: next one, uh, a couple of rookie quarterbacks. I mentioned 237 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 1: them just Aston Fields and trade Lance. They were They've 238 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:07,200 Speaker 1: been all the rage amongst your fantasy dynasty drafters and 239 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 1: rookie drafts. Um, who would you rather have in say 240 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 1: a redraft lee? Would you rather have justin Fields or 241 00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:17,560 Speaker 1: trade Lance? And why? I like Justin Fields right now 242 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 1: a little bit more. I think he's more NFL ready 243 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 1: than Trail Lands and has an easier path to become 244 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:27,720 Speaker 1: become the starter in theverse, even though that mc nagy 245 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: has his narrative that Andy Dalton is going to be 246 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 1: the start in week one. Yeah, week one okay, but 247 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:38,480 Speaker 1: do and training camps are on the way, we have 248 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 1: to see preseason. I think Justin Fields has a shot 249 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:46,960 Speaker 1: to to reclaim that claimed the started role even before 250 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 1: week one. So I like Justin Fields a little bit 251 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 1: more so. He said, like in redrafts in Dynasty, does 252 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 1: that change your opinion if we're talking at Dynasty draft 253 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:58,079 Speaker 1: are you are you still with Justin Fields or do 254 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 1: you know the other way that It's a really really 255 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 1: tough question because I'm just In Fields really really like him. 256 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:10,440 Speaker 1: But in Dynasty, I think it's a close one. I 257 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 1: believe if it's talent, but the long term situation, it's 258 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:17,200 Speaker 1: far from my deal. MTC Maggie future is on the line. 259 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 1: Allan Robinson doesn't have a long term deal. And in 260 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 1: the other hand, trade Lance has the talent, has the 261 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:30,920 Speaker 1: armstrang strength, sorry, he can run, have a great offensive 262 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:34,680 Speaker 1: mind with coach Shanahan, some good players around him, with 263 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 1: Brandon a You, Deebo, Samuel George kill, and I think 264 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 1: that the balance it's for for Traide Lands right now 265 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 1: in Dynasty, I think I'm pretty sure Justin Fields is 266 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 1: going to be the first one to start. Do you 267 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 1: expect we're gonna see trade Lance as a starter before 268 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 1: the year is over? Probably? Yeah, But that depends on 269 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: the foreign nine years record, right if they if they're 270 00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 1: winning games, it's tough to see you change from Garoppolo 271 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 1: to Lands if they are winning games, even if not 272 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 1: with Garoppolo's harm, but with the defense or with the 273 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 1: other pieces they have in the offense. Yeah, I mean, 274 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 1: I think it's gonna happen, But you're right, I think yeah, 275 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 1: if if Garoppolo is playing well and they're winning, um, 276 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,200 Speaker 1: they probably are going to make that change too soon. 277 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 1: Uh More. Quarterback talk in New Orleans, Drew Brees is gone. 278 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 1: Here we are, it's it's training care time, and we 279 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 1: don't know for sure who's going to be the starter 280 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 1: down there in New Orleans between Jameis Winston and Taysom Hill. 281 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 1: Do you have a preference of who you'd like to 282 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:39,520 Speaker 1: see be the starter? Yeah, definitely. And I was looking 283 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 1: forward for these questions who arise because I know that 284 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 1: some guy drafted Tyson Hill in the Scott Fish Bowl. 285 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 1: That's you, market, Yeah, absolutely, it was me. I am 286 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:55,440 Speaker 1: I'm guilty. And I really think that James Winson needs 287 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 1: the best option for them and for that often in 288 00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,480 Speaker 1: fantasy purposes. Right the last time he played in the 289 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 1: whole season, he was a top five QB. He fed 290 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 1: Mike Evans and and all that stuff in Tampa Bay. 291 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 1: It's stopped for me to be leave in Tyson p 292 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 1: ls a really good quarterback for fantasy. I'm not buying it. 293 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 1: And and the comedye it would be the worst situation 294 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 1: for everyone. Yeah, yeah, I I the committee would be 295 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 1: the worst. But I also feel like Sean Payton would 296 00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 1: absolutely do that, right like he he would use both 297 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: of these guys and make it the worst case. And 298 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 1: I'll say this, yeah I did. I drafted. I drafted 299 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: Taysom Hill in the Scott Fish Bowl. Um, because it 300 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:44,120 Speaker 1: was it really was sort of a long shot, right, 301 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: like maybe he's the guy when they get close he 302 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 1: scores a couple of touchdowns, or maybe they use him 303 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 1: every now and then as a tight end and they 304 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 1: throw him to football every once in a while. Like 305 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 1: it was that was sort of my attempt to get 306 00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 1: into Sean Payton's head and try and figure out how 307 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,040 Speaker 1: they're going to use him, because I have no idea. 308 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,120 Speaker 1: I'm not going to pretend like I know. Uh so, Yeah, 309 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 1: I addressed him just you know, just for a laugh, 310 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 1: just what happened. I can see the value there. Like 311 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 1: you said, he can be the gadget player he was 312 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 1: last year and he can return value of course, right yeah, 313 00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:20,640 Speaker 1: um so, I mean as we talk about this, how 314 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 1: much how much does the quarterback you think affects a 315 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:29,119 Speaker 1: guy like Alvin Kamara With Tyson Hid a lot, his 316 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 1: upside is kept. He's one of the most burstatiles talented 317 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:36,920 Speaker 1: productive running backs in the past few years. But from 318 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:42,160 Speaker 1: he has played thirty four games with Race and tend 319 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:47,640 Speaker 1: without him, the difference is really really high seven point 320 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:51,640 Speaker 1: targets and twenty three point four points per game with 321 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 1: Brace without him five point five targets and seventeen point 322 00:17:56,160 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 1: eight fantasy points. But if we put tysom Hill in 323 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 1: the equation, the numbers are really really scary. Four targets 324 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 1: and only fourteen point two fantasy points per game. Yeah, 325 00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:14,399 Speaker 1: I know that was that was everybody who had Alvin 326 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 1: Kamara last year. You know, they were so frustrated because 327 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:20,919 Speaker 1: he wasn't getting the targets like he used to with 328 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 1: Drew Brees. Uh, and he wasn't getting those touchdowns. Those 329 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,639 Speaker 1: short touchdown runs were going to Taysom Hill and that 330 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 1: was the worst. And I know that's that's everybody's fear 331 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 1: about Taysom Hill getting the starting job. But that being said, 332 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,399 Speaker 1: I mean we're still drafting Alvin Kamara in like the 333 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 1: top four or five. I mean, if you're on the clock, 334 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 1: let's say you're on the clocket for Mauricio and Alvin 335 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:43,119 Speaker 1: Kamara is still there, are you gonna take him or 336 00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:45,840 Speaker 1: you're gonna go somewhere else? Even though what what what 337 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 1: I just said, I would go with Alvin Kamara because 338 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:54,960 Speaker 1: of his challenged barsatil and productive an upsite. Alkmara every 339 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:57,520 Speaker 1: single year is going to have an upsite. Yeah, I think, 340 00:18:57,560 --> 00:18:59,919 Speaker 1: I think, I think we're nervous, but I don't think 341 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:02,440 Speaker 1: so nervous that we would avoid him. Do you remember 342 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:04,959 Speaker 1: how last year we were nervous with Alvin Kamara as 343 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 1: well because of and he was like in some drafts, 344 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:15,360 Speaker 1: was still in like pick nine or ten. It was amazing. Yeah, 345 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 1: he was and then you know all the people if 346 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 1: you survived and you made it to the Fantasy playoffs, 347 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 1: I mean you got a huge game from him at 348 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:24,800 Speaker 1: the end of the season. I mean it was your 349 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:29,360 Speaker 1: Christmas gift basically from from Alvin Kamara. So it sort 350 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:30,959 Speaker 1: of worked out if you were able to survive that. 351 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,679 Speaker 1: All Right, My last, my last storyline and maybe the 352 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:39,399 Speaker 1: biggest one. Um, what's up with Aaron Rodgers and and 353 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,880 Speaker 1: what will he do? You think he will be on 354 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,879 Speaker 1: an NFL roster in Week one? And if so, which 355 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:53,440 Speaker 1: team will it be? Well, we're guessing here, and I'm 356 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 1: and I'm thinking like if I was the general manager, 357 00:19:56,960 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 1: the Pactors general manager, There's no way I will trade 358 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,960 Speaker 1: Aaron Bridgers. No way. So the trade for me is 359 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:07,960 Speaker 1: out of the question, out of the probilities, and I 360 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:11,720 Speaker 1: will be blown away if they trade him, probably going 361 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:14,480 Speaker 1: to be one of the biggest surprise in recent NFL history. 362 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 1: So I think he's going to be in an NFL 363 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:20,159 Speaker 1: roster and it would be with Green Bay. So for me, 364 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers seats set one year, Allah Brett fire right 365 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:29,880 Speaker 1: or play with the Packers. I mean, I think you're 366 00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 1: probably right. I think the the you know, the chance 367 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,359 Speaker 1: for him to get traded, you know, especially to like 368 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:38,399 Speaker 1: Denver or something like that, it's probably gone. Uh. The 369 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 1: other part of that is you can look at pretty 370 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:46,720 Speaker 1: much any sport, um, whenever you trade a superstar like that, 371 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:50,159 Speaker 1: you never get the same amount of value back, Like 372 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 1: it just never happens, um. And so I think that's 373 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:55,400 Speaker 1: what's hard for the packers. So at some point, yeah, 374 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 1: I think the two sides may figure out a way 375 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 1: to maybe you know, make up and get back together again. 376 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 1: Although you know, part of me thinks that he could 377 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 1: just go on and live his life and have a 378 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 1: good year and just you know, like I mean, like 379 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:09,120 Speaker 1: every time I see him on like Instagram, he looks 380 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 1: pretty happy just doing whatever he's doing. He isn't worried 381 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:15,400 Speaker 1: at all, not at all. No, no, no, not even 382 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 1: a little bit. So let's let's just say for the 383 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,360 Speaker 1: sake of argument, that he decides to take a year 384 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,680 Speaker 1: off that he's not going to play. How much does 385 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 1: that hurt guys like Davante Adams and Aaron Jones if 386 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:32,119 Speaker 1: he's not there, Probably not much. I think Devant Adams 387 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:35,600 Speaker 1: one of the most talented wide receivers in the NFL. 388 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 1: We sometimes talk about wide receivers that that are QB proof, 389 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:44,879 Speaker 1: like Terry McLaurin, like Allen Robinson. Why can't one of 390 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:48,239 Speaker 1: the most talented wire receivers in the NFL don't be 391 00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 1: QUB proof. And that's the case for Devanti Aldams. Of course, 392 00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:55,480 Speaker 1: he's not going to finish top three. It's like really 393 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:58,960 Speaker 1: difficult to think about him at top three with Jordan's love. 394 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 1: But top top ten, I think it's possible for for 395 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 1: the Vante Adams for talent alone and for volume. You know, 396 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:10,880 Speaker 1: that is maybe the most reasonable take. I think I've 397 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 1: heard about this the whole time because I think I 398 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 1: feel like we all talk about Aaron Rodgers not being 399 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:20,680 Speaker 1: there and then we start to panic about everything else. Um, 400 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:23,119 Speaker 1: I will say that I have dropped Davante Adams in 401 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:26,719 Speaker 1: my rankings from one to five, So I got I'm nervous. 402 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 1: I mean, is that where about do you have him? 403 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 1: Is that? Is that about right for you? Yeah? I 404 00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 1: think top five is about right right now because we 405 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:37,320 Speaker 1: don't know what Aaron Rodgers is going to do. Yeah, 406 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:41,600 Speaker 1: so put me in the top three probably it's not reasonable. 407 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:45,919 Speaker 1: Top ten not also the top five things the sweet 408 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 1: spotted um. And then Aaron Jones do you feel the 409 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 1: same way does he? Does he take a big hit 410 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 1: if there's no Aaron Rodgers? Okay? With without Aaron Rodgers, 411 00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:02,120 Speaker 1: we're expecting like more volume for for Aaron Jones, right, 412 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:06,720 Speaker 1: And I think it's not only for for Aaron Jones, 413 00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,360 Speaker 1: but for a J Dealon as well. So we can 414 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:14,639 Speaker 1: see the offense being more conservative, wanted to to run 415 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:17,440 Speaker 1: in a lot more. I still him rank him as 416 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 1: a low running back one because of decrease in expected touchdowns, 417 00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:26,399 Speaker 1: all right, I think yeah, I think that's that's probably fair. Um, 418 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,359 Speaker 1: because an J. Dillon't worry you at all, I can't 419 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 1: say that I'm worried about it. I don't know if 420 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:32,119 Speaker 1: a J. Dillon scares you at all about Aaron Jones. 421 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 1: But with Aaron Aaron Rodgers over, just like there's a 422 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 1: Do you think a J. Dillon hurts Aaron Jones at 423 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 1: all this year? Is it the same? No? I don't 424 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:45,399 Speaker 1: think they think the same that Jamal Williams. Jamal Williams 425 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:50,720 Speaker 1: decreases opportunities for for Jones in the passing game. A J. 426 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:54,679 Speaker 1: Dilon is going to limit opportunities for Jones in the 427 00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,680 Speaker 1: Russian game. But I think it's compensated. Yeah, no, I 428 00:23:58,040 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 1: feel like that that's fair. I think it's going to 429 00:23:59,880 --> 00:24:02,160 Speaker 1: be kind of, you know, an equal swap, I guess 430 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:06,159 Speaker 1: between Dylan and Jamal Williams. All right, So those are 431 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:07,920 Speaker 1: the Those are the training camp stories, which I guess 432 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 1: I should remind you, uh one more time. It's the 433 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:12,360 Speaker 1: biggest season ever. Starts with NFL Training Camp, a whole 434 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:15,159 Speaker 1: week of first looks at insider access leading up to 435 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:18,359 Speaker 1: the first ever back Together Saturday, fueled by Gatorade coverage 436 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 1: starts to NFL networks, So check it out. That leads 437 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:25,399 Speaker 1: me to I would like to play hype train or 438 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:28,000 Speaker 1: smoke screen. So basically, I got I'm gonna have a 439 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:30,480 Speaker 1: handful of statements and I want you to decide whether 440 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 1: or not we should be believing this. Do we get 441 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:34,960 Speaker 1: on the hype train or if this is just you know, 442 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,399 Speaker 1: garbage and we should ignore it. So, uh so my 443 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:41,679 Speaker 1: first one, Odell Beckham Jr. Is going to be a 444 00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:45,080 Speaker 1: wide receiver one in one. Are you are you believing 445 00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 1: that or not? Hype train talent talent second year in 446 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:55,360 Speaker 1: Stefanski's offense, He's done it. In the past years, why 447 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:58,359 Speaker 1: not and may feel I think Mayfield isn't going to 448 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 1: be so much pressure to look to to Adell Beckham 449 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:04,560 Speaker 1: like in the last year or in two thousand nineteen. 450 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,679 Speaker 1: All right, that I have been trying to figure out. 451 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 1: I've been trying to figure out how I feel about 452 00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 1: Odell all all off season long. Like I just I 453 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 1: honestly don't know, because I still think he's really talented. 454 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 1: I don't think that's changed. Um, But you know, I 455 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 1: also just don't know if if the offense is set 456 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 1: up for him to be the same kind of player 457 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 1: he was with the Giants. Um, go ahead, Marcus. Even 458 00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:35,399 Speaker 1: if Odell Beckham isn't where is hebro One? Will you 459 00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 1: see him finishing in top twenty four? I can see that. Yeah, 460 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 1: And he's Haiti Pizza Argan. Even even seeing him as 461 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:45,240 Speaker 1: a twin as the top twenty four? Where is he? 462 00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:48,159 Speaker 1: I think he's a good investment. Yeah, and it has 463 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:50,680 Speaker 1: the upside. Yeah. I think that's the important part too, 464 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 1: is that I think it is it is the the 465 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:55,320 Speaker 1: you know, the risk versus the reward. And I think 466 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:58,440 Speaker 1: for for a guy like Odell, the risk isn't really 467 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 1: significant for what he can potentially give you. So I 468 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:04,639 Speaker 1: think that that's that's a fair statement. All right. Um, 469 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 1: next one, Adrian Peterson says he's working out. He's trying 470 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 1: to stay ready in case somebody calls, which some team 471 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:16,080 Speaker 1: very well could give him a call before the year 472 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:19,680 Speaker 1: is over. So my statement here, Adrian Peterson is going 473 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:22,879 Speaker 1: to be Fantasy relevant this year. Hype trainer smoke screen. Okay, 474 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 1: if you see smoke here, it's not my computer burning 475 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 1: the smoke ring of Willian Peterson. The fantasy rebolland you know, 476 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:38,639 Speaker 1: insert the meme of Michael Scott that no, God, that's it. 477 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:43,600 Speaker 1: In this stage his career, probably he will need like 478 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 1: tam plus touchems to be fantasy rebullant. He's had Hall Famer, 479 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:50,440 Speaker 1: I have no doubt of that. Probably one of the 480 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:56,239 Speaker 1: best running backs we've ever seen. Bad. I don't know, 481 00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:03,359 Speaker 1: but I know that if someone can make eat my words, Kim, Yeah, 482 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:04,880 Speaker 1: I mean, I think there's there's always that. I mean, 483 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 1: I think of a couple of years ago and when 484 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 1: he was in Washington, right when when we felt like, 485 00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 1: you know, he's he's old, he just can't get it done, 486 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:15,359 Speaker 1: and he ended up having a pretty good season. Um. 487 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:17,480 Speaker 1: But then I also go back to last year when 488 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:20,720 Speaker 1: the Lions finally made DeAndre Swift the starter, and Adrian 489 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:22,720 Speaker 1: Peterson said, hey, that that should have happened like a 490 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 1: month ago. So uh so yeah, I think I think 491 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 1: we might be finally mirroring the end of the road 492 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 1: for a guy who has been great for a long time. 493 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 1: I will say that if he is, if he is 494 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,359 Speaker 1: signed to a team, I will be very hesitant to 495 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 1: make a move to pick him up. Um, So I'll 496 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:42,040 Speaker 1: leave it that. Do you think the Rams could make 497 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 1: a call for him? I think they could. Um, I 498 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:48,880 Speaker 1: know that. I know they have said they don't plan 499 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,399 Speaker 1: to go out and sign a veteran free agent, but 500 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 1: I also don't a hundred percent believe that, you know, 501 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 1: Like I think, I think we'll get into training camp 502 00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 1: and we we might even get into the regular season 503 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:02,879 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks. Uh, and then Sean McVeigh will 504 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:04,680 Speaker 1: sort of look at his running backs and I think 505 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:08,200 Speaker 1: at some point they're gonna sign somebody. Um, whether it's Peterson, 506 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:11,880 Speaker 1: maybe there's a hot girly reunion that happens, I don't know, 507 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 1: but I think they signed somebody there. I agree, So alright, 508 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 1: last one here, Um, Kenyan Drake will outscore Josh Jacobs. 509 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:24,400 Speaker 1: Hype train or smoke screen. That's a really closed one, 510 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:28,159 Speaker 1: but I'm going to say smoke screen, okay for me. 511 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 1: Joe Jacobs is a better talent. You know, the talent 512 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:36,439 Speaker 1: is there. The Raiders have like not use him in 513 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 1: a great way. Drake is going to have the past 514 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,480 Speaker 1: catching role and maybe some of the carries, but without 515 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 1: warning an injury, I think outscoring Jacob seems nearly improbable. Yeah, um, 516 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 1: but I do think it's gonna be close, right, Like, 517 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 1: I think they're both going to get the ball a lot. 518 00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 1: Have you? Have you been willing to draft Josh Jacobs 519 00:28:56,840 --> 00:29:01,480 Speaker 1: anywhere this year? Not at all, Not really, because he 520 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:06,000 Speaker 1: said the pet's like round three, round four. I'm looking 521 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: for wide receivers there. Yeah, the Ceedee Lambs, Robert Woods. 522 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 1: So it's going to be difficult to have Joe Jacobs 523 00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 1: in my team this year. Yeah, No, I agree. I don't. 524 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 1: I don't think I've drafted Josh Jacobs on any team 525 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 1: just because I don't. I feel like I can't accurately 526 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 1: predict what the Raiders offense is going to be. Um 527 00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 1: and then on top of it, Like Kenyan Drake, I 528 00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 1: think is going to He's gonna get a lot of work, 529 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:31,960 Speaker 1: and so like I've I've just kind of stayed away 530 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 1: from all of that at this point. So are you 531 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 1: willing to draft Kenyan Drake or not at all? I 532 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 1: think I've drafted Kenyan Drake once or twice. Um, But 533 00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 1: you know, but it's the same thing, right, like we 534 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:44,720 Speaker 1: talked about with like Odell, where the the a DP 535 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:47,440 Speaker 1: is right there, the value is right So I don't 536 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 1: feel like I'm risking a whole lot by by drafted 537 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 1: Kenyan Drake. So that's about it, um, all right. I 538 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 1: like to always end with just some some kind of 539 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:58,560 Speaker 1: rapid fire, non fantasy question, just the chance to kind of, 540 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 1: you know, be a little bit goof if possible. So 541 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 1: my first one for you, if you could retire to 542 00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 1: any place in the world, where would you go? I 543 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:11,960 Speaker 1: love mountains, I love the beach. I have to go 544 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:15,400 Speaker 1: to the beach for me. It's that the best relaxing 545 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:21,760 Speaker 1: spot that I could probably imagine in Mexico Islam is 546 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 1: probably pop up or whole box in the RIBERA. Yeah, 547 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 1: that'd be amazing. All right, all right, So wait now, 548 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:29,560 Speaker 1: because you said mountains and the beach, So I'm guessing 549 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 1: that that's just where you can. You can sort of 550 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:33,720 Speaker 1: do both there, right, Probably six months in the beach, 551 00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:36,160 Speaker 1: six months in the mountains. Yeah, that would be great, 552 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:41,320 Speaker 1: That would be great. Absolutely, I'm down with that. All right. Um, 553 00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:43,520 Speaker 1: if you weren't doing this job, if you weren't writing 554 00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:46,480 Speaker 1: and talking about fantasy football, what would Mauricio Gutiers be 555 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:51,280 Speaker 1: doing with his life. That's the toughest question I've ever 556 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:55,840 Speaker 1: been a fantasy football analyst, and I really don't know. 557 00:30:56,760 --> 00:31:00,040 Speaker 1: I'm a lawyer actually, by the way, and I and 558 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 1: I dropped everything that I was doing as a lawyer 559 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 1: for doing what I dream of, that was the generating 560 00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:12,200 Speaker 1: content fantasy football. Right. So now that it's my job, 561 00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 1: my full time job, I'm really really blessed. And I 562 00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:19,960 Speaker 1: think probably I would if I wasn't doing this, probably 563 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 1: I would settle with with the lawyer thing, or maybe 564 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:27,160 Speaker 1: running a little restaurant, probably in the beach, that would 565 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:30,680 Speaker 1: be something I would consider as well. See, so now 566 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 1: we're setting up your whole retirement right, Like, you're gonna 567 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:34,280 Speaker 1: live in the mountains, in the beach, You're gonna run 568 00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:37,480 Speaker 1: a little restaurant like we're playing it. We're playing in 569 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 1: your future right here, totally playing and winning some football 570 00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 1: and some fantasy football leagues of course. Yeah, yeah, I 571 00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 1: love We've got We've got it all mapped out for you. 572 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:51,480 Speaker 1: It's great. That's great. All right, So my last one here. 573 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 1: You are a Star Wars fanatic, you know, I love 574 00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:57,960 Speaker 1: every morning seeing you know, the good the buenoss and 575 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:02,480 Speaker 1: and uh and the coffee cup being stirred. So between 576 00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:05,160 Speaker 1: all the Star Wars movies and the TV shows, do 577 00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:09,040 Speaker 1: you have a particular favorite. Yeah, and it's not it's 578 00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,160 Speaker 1: going to be the popular one, and I don't care. 579 00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 1: But Empire strikes Back. It screams perfection all the way. 580 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:21,560 Speaker 1: It's an amazing film. That's a film that that really 581 00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:26,400 Speaker 1: made me love Star Wars. Yeah, it is. I mean, 582 00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:27,800 Speaker 1: I think I would agree with you. I think it 583 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 1: is the best of like of all the nine, you know, 584 00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,240 Speaker 1: major movies, I think that's the best one. And it's 585 00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 1: also the one. Um. You know, at the end of 586 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:41,040 Speaker 1: Empire Strikes Back, things are bad. You know. Luke at 587 00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 1: his hand chopped off, he found out Darth Vaders, his 588 00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:47,720 Speaker 1: dad Han Solo, is frozen in carbonite like things look 589 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 1: bad for them, but it is and it's probably the 590 00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 1: best one. And I think that that's something about the 591 00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:55,680 Speaker 1: charm of that film that you didn't expect to go 592 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 1: to so that places and and that the Empire, like 593 00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:02,480 Speaker 1: was we in the war in that moment? And I 594 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:05,800 Speaker 1: think that it's something that the George Lucas planned perfectly. 595 00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 1: Are you watching like the bad Batch for any of 596 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:13,680 Speaker 1: the new stuff? I watch everything, watch everything. The Mandalorian 597 00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 1: was great. Also, I'm watching the bad Batch. It's okay, right, 598 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:24,880 Speaker 1: it doesn't feel like in the Star Wars universal storyline, 599 00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:30,520 Speaker 1: the that has something new for us, But I am 600 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 1: joining like Friday put it maybe with my dinner or 601 00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:39,600 Speaker 1: something like that.
