0:00:26.520 --> 0:00:28.160
<v Speaker 1>this week co host.

0:00:28.480 --> 0:00:32.520
<v Speaker 3>Thor nystro Hey, buddy, it's time to talk rookies again.

0:00:32.840 --> 0:00:33.440
<v Speaker 4>I can't wait.

0:00:33.520 --> 0:00:35.440
<v Speaker 5>And we're so close to the season. Now you can

0:00:35.520 --> 0:00:36.640
<v Speaker 5>start to smell the tailgate.

0:00:36.680 --> 0:00:39.320
<v Speaker 3>We're so close. Oh God, can't wait.

0:00:39.360 --> 0:00:41.960
<v Speaker 1>We're just weeks away, like two and a half weeks

0:00:41.960 --> 0:00:43.200
<v Speaker 1>away from training camps.

0:00:43.720 --> 0:00:45.600
<v Speaker 3>Oh, it's gonna be fantastic.

0:00:45.680 --> 0:00:48.400
<v Speaker 1>And you and I have already tucked rookies more around

0:00:48.400 --> 0:00:50.800
<v Speaker 1>the draft, but it's time to circle back.

0:00:50.840 --> 0:00:51.080
<v Speaker 4>Now.

0:00:51.200 --> 0:00:54.040
<v Speaker 1>You've spent more time with these guys. I've spent more

0:00:54.040 --> 0:00:56.040
<v Speaker 1>time with them. We've had a chance to look at

0:00:56.080 --> 0:00:59.560
<v Speaker 1>guys in OTA's and mini camps, and we want to

0:00:59.600 --> 0:01:00.400
<v Speaker 1>talk about some.

0:01:00.360 --> 0:01:04.080
<v Speaker 3>Of the deep sleepers. Right. We we know about the

0:01:04.120 --> 0:01:05.880
<v Speaker 3>obvious guys. We want to drill deeper.

0:01:05.920 --> 0:01:07.880
<v Speaker 1>And you weren't yet on the show at this time

0:01:07.959 --> 0:01:12.160
<v Speaker 1>last year, Thor. But it had you been on this show,

0:01:12.280 --> 0:01:14.800
<v Speaker 1>you'd have been talking up pookin Akua, because when you

0:01:14.880 --> 0:01:16.120
<v Speaker 1>did get on the show.

0:01:15.840 --> 0:01:18.000
<v Speaker 3>In August, you were talking to Pooka Nakula.

0:01:18.200 --> 0:01:20.400
<v Speaker 5>Yes, yeah, banging the drum. We're gonna bang the drum

0:01:20.440 --> 0:01:22.840
<v Speaker 5>for some guys today. I can't promise that they'll become

0:01:22.880 --> 0:01:25.480
<v Speaker 5>Pooka Nakula, but they are guys that to be monitoring

0:01:25.520 --> 0:01:28.240
<v Speaker 5>that could fit, you know, yeah, jumping off really quickly.

0:01:28.440 --> 0:01:32.039
<v Speaker 1>There almost can't be another Pookinakua. That's I mean, you

0:01:32.080 --> 0:01:33.959
<v Speaker 1>could go a lot, you go ten years and there's

0:01:34.000 --> 0:01:37.920
<v Speaker 1>just not another rookie fifth rounder who does what he

0:01:38.000 --> 0:01:39.280
<v Speaker 1>did last year for sure.

0:01:39.280 --> 0:01:41.760
<v Speaker 3>And that's not your fault. That's just like the math.

0:01:42.080 --> 0:01:44.840
<v Speaker 5>Yeah right, yeah, I mean like almost a once in

0:01:44.840 --> 0:01:46.640
<v Speaker 5>a lifetime think you're not going to get a Day

0:01:46.680 --> 0:01:49.960
<v Speaker 5>three guy shattering all the NFL records again as a rookie.

0:01:50.000 --> 0:01:51.640
<v Speaker 5>But I think we got some guys in here we

0:01:51.680 --> 0:01:53.800
<v Speaker 5>can point people to where they can get really really

0:01:53.840 --> 0:01:56.440
<v Speaker 5>good values on them because they're being overlooked in fantasy

0:01:56.520 --> 0:01:57.200
<v Speaker 5>drafts right now.

0:01:57.360 --> 0:02:00.160
<v Speaker 1>So going through your list of guys everybody were going

0:02:00.240 --> 0:02:03.919
<v Speaker 1>to talk about in rookie drafts are going at least

0:02:03.920 --> 0:02:07.840
<v Speaker 1>at eighty P eighteen or higher. Most of these guys

0:02:07.920 --> 0:02:11.240
<v Speaker 1>are going in the twenties and thirties or even forties

0:02:11.560 --> 0:02:15.280
<v Speaker 1>of rookie drafts. Rookie drafts correct, So these are all deep.

0:02:15.360 --> 0:02:18.400
<v Speaker 1>These are deep, right, right, So we're not expecting every

0:02:18.400 --> 0:02:21.520
<v Speaker 1>one of these guys to hit. And also, these guys

0:02:21.560 --> 0:02:23.600
<v Speaker 1>all have warts, right, I mean, if they didn't have

0:02:23.600 --> 0:02:25.560
<v Speaker 1>any warts, they wouldn't be at you know, eighty, you know,

0:02:25.600 --> 0:02:28.520
<v Speaker 1>the rookie ADP wouldn't be thirty five thou right, So

0:02:28.880 --> 0:02:30.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, keep it, you know, keep that in mind

0:02:30.440 --> 0:02:32.560
<v Speaker 1>as we're talking through this. We'll we'll talk about some

0:02:32.639 --> 0:02:34.720
<v Speaker 1>of the good and bad for all of these guys,

0:02:34.760 --> 0:02:38.440
<v Speaker 1>and we'll do it by position or let's beget a quarterback.

0:02:39.480 --> 0:02:42.960
<v Speaker 1>It goes without saying for anybody who allowed here for

0:02:43.000 --> 0:02:46.520
<v Speaker 1>the last year, JJ McCarthy his rookie ADP is eighteen.

0:02:46.560 --> 0:02:49.760
<v Speaker 1>So this is the most highly ranked of anybody we're

0:02:49.760 --> 0:02:51.080
<v Speaker 1>gonna talk about in this set.

0:02:50.960 --> 0:02:53.160
<v Speaker 5>The only first round that we're going to. But of course,

0:02:53.320 --> 0:02:54.600
<v Speaker 5>you know, again I had to sneak the man, you.

0:02:54.560 --> 0:02:57.760
<v Speaker 1>Know, any chance to talk about jjmrect But let me

0:02:57.760 --> 0:03:00.919
<v Speaker 1>set the Let me set the table this way. Almost

0:03:01.000 --> 0:03:05.359
<v Speaker 1>everything we're hearing out of the Vikings from both externally

0:03:05.360 --> 0:03:08.000
<v Speaker 1>that they're saying openly to the media and everything i'm

0:03:08.040 --> 0:03:11.840
<v Speaker 1>hearing back channel, everything that is being discussed in the media.

0:03:12.160 --> 0:03:14.600
<v Speaker 1>They all say the Vikings are going to take their

0:03:14.680 --> 0:03:18.440
<v Speaker 1>time on JJ McCarthy. And there's a very real scenario

0:03:18.919 --> 0:03:21.160
<v Speaker 1>where Sam Darnold, now surrounded by the best talent of

0:03:21.160 --> 0:03:24.840
<v Speaker 1>his life, has a long runway here. So talk to

0:03:24.880 --> 0:03:27.200
<v Speaker 1>me about what you if a do you disagree with

0:03:27.240 --> 0:03:28.919
<v Speaker 1>any of that, because you're welcome to and there could

0:03:28.919 --> 0:03:30.119
<v Speaker 1>be a lot of smoke screen here and it could

0:03:30.120 --> 0:03:31.800
<v Speaker 1>be the JJ McCarthy just too good to leave on

0:03:31.840 --> 0:03:34.440
<v Speaker 1>the bench. What how if you were to if I

0:03:34.480 --> 0:03:37.160
<v Speaker 1>were to put a weak number on when JJ McCarthy

0:03:37.240 --> 0:03:39.200
<v Speaker 1>starts this year, if at all, what do you.

0:03:39.200 --> 0:03:42.360
<v Speaker 4>Think before the midway point of the season.

0:03:42.440 --> 0:03:44.960
<v Speaker 3>Okay, they got a buy in week six, I'll mention that.

0:03:45.000 --> 0:03:46.680
<v Speaker 4>But I think it could be right around then.

0:03:46.880 --> 0:03:49.600
<v Speaker 5>Okay, that's where I put it on your good you know,

0:03:49.640 --> 0:03:51.520
<v Speaker 5>And they're the way that they're conveying this to the

0:03:51.520 --> 0:03:54.640
<v Speaker 5>public gets the right way. You're being deferential to a veteran,

0:03:54.680 --> 0:03:57.480
<v Speaker 5>but also a veteran who is literal real life friends

0:03:57.520 --> 0:04:00.360
<v Speaker 5>with the quarterback coach is very they played together with

0:04:00.400 --> 0:04:03.160
<v Speaker 5>the Jets, very friendly with the head coach, and they

0:04:03.200 --> 0:04:05.560
<v Speaker 5>brought him in. You know, they sold him on this idea,

0:04:05.640 --> 0:04:08.320
<v Speaker 5>Darnold I'm talking about of you know, revitalizing his career,

0:04:08.320 --> 0:04:11.680
<v Speaker 5>et cetera. I would expect him to get that first opportunity,

0:04:11.960 --> 0:04:14.080
<v Speaker 5>but I don't think it's the lock that other people

0:04:14.160 --> 0:04:18.039
<v Speaker 5>do that McCarthy doesn't. You know, either start week one

0:04:18.240 --> 0:04:21.480
<v Speaker 5>or shortly thereafter, you need to get the if you're

0:04:21.520 --> 0:04:23.560
<v Speaker 5>the Vikings, you need to get the referendum on JJ

0:04:23.680 --> 0:04:26.400
<v Speaker 5>McCarthy this coming season. You need to know if he's

0:04:26.440 --> 0:04:28.520
<v Speaker 5>the answer for a year two. So he going to

0:04:28.560 --> 0:04:30.760
<v Speaker 5>be starting for at least half that season. I think

0:04:30.800 --> 0:04:32.840
<v Speaker 5>a little bit more than that, and I think that

0:04:32.880 --> 0:04:34.520
<v Speaker 5>they're going to give him at least a shot in

0:04:34.560 --> 0:04:38.160
<v Speaker 5>camp right now. They're modulating his footwork into longer throws

0:04:38.200 --> 0:04:40.159
<v Speaker 5>and then the throws down the sideline. Something we talked

0:04:40.160 --> 0:04:42.880
<v Speaker 5>about during the pre draft process about how JJ loves

0:04:42.920 --> 0:04:45.360
<v Speaker 5>to come over the top with that exaggerated lead step.

0:04:45.600 --> 0:04:47.320
<v Speaker 5>The kids got a bazooka, but a lot of the

0:04:47.360 --> 0:04:50.520
<v Speaker 5>throws they're bullet type throws like that down when you're

0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:52.800
<v Speaker 5>going down the field, you want to deduct some of

0:04:52.839 --> 0:04:56.200
<v Speaker 5>the velocity for trajectory, arch, touch, et cetera. That's what

0:04:56.200 --> 0:04:58.760
<v Speaker 5>they're working on him with right now. How quickly will

0:04:58.760 --> 0:05:01.480
<v Speaker 5>that take? Will that take by mid August late August

0:05:01.720 --> 0:05:03.400
<v Speaker 5>to give him a shot early in the season to

0:05:03.400 --> 0:05:05.320
<v Speaker 5>potentially see the field or do they want to go

0:05:05.360 --> 0:05:07.080
<v Speaker 5>a little bit slower. But either way, I think we're

0:05:07.080 --> 0:05:08.360
<v Speaker 5>gonna see JJ out there quick.

0:05:08.560 --> 0:05:12.880
<v Speaker 1>Viking schedule is opening schedule before that Week six spy,

0:05:13.880 --> 0:05:17.680
<v Speaker 1>It's it's pretty darn tough and that could factor into this.

0:05:18.720 --> 0:05:24.280
<v Speaker 1>If the Vikings are looking at one in five rolling

0:05:24.360 --> 0:05:27.120
<v Speaker 1>into that buy, that might.

0:05:27.000 --> 0:05:27.880
<v Speaker 3>Be it, right.

0:05:28.080 --> 0:05:29.960
<v Speaker 4>I think that would be it, yeah, for sure.

0:05:30.040 --> 0:05:33.240
<v Speaker 5>And with McCarthy, we talked about this around the draft

0:05:33.279 --> 0:05:36.160
<v Speaker 5>of you have the best supporting cast of certainly any

0:05:36.240 --> 0:05:38.800
<v Speaker 5>quarterback that got taken in this class. Some people think

0:05:38.839 --> 0:05:40.919
<v Speaker 5>it's the best of the past twenty five years of

0:05:40.920 --> 0:05:43.280
<v Speaker 5>a first round rookie going in there. You have that,

0:05:43.360 --> 0:05:45.320
<v Speaker 5>but with McCarthy you have the arm town as well.

0:05:45.600 --> 0:05:47.720
<v Speaker 5>But I think the fantasy community is sleeping on the

0:05:47.760 --> 0:05:50.160
<v Speaker 5>athleticism and the amount of value they could get from

0:05:50.200 --> 0:05:53.600
<v Speaker 5>his legs. Sixth fastest three cone regardless of position at

0:05:53.640 --> 0:05:56.760
<v Speaker 5>the NFL. Combine also ran a four four eight forty

0:05:56.880 --> 0:05:59.080
<v Speaker 5>at Michigan. He would have run in the four fourth

0:05:59.160 --> 0:06:01.320
<v Speaker 5>had he run he did run during the pre draft process.

0:06:01.320 --> 0:06:03.279
<v Speaker 5>Didn't need to go in the top ten. But those

0:06:03.360 --> 0:06:05.240
<v Speaker 5>legs will add value as well at the next level.

0:06:05.279 --> 0:06:07.680
<v Speaker 1>And that's something nobody's really talking about, is JJ McCarthy

0:06:07.760 --> 0:06:11.640
<v Speaker 1>is somebody that's gonna chip in twenty five thirty forty

0:06:11.720 --> 0:06:14.280
<v Speaker 1>rushing yards per game, and that is that is possible

0:06:14.279 --> 0:06:17.440
<v Speaker 1>for him. Kevin O'Connell doesn't have a history of calling

0:06:17.480 --> 0:06:20.800
<v Speaker 1>designed quarterback runs and he obviously with Kirk Cousins you

0:06:20.839 --> 0:06:22.880
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't do that, But weirdly, he also didn't do it

0:06:22.880 --> 0:06:24.880
<v Speaker 1>with Josh Dobbs and that was like the only thing

0:06:24.960 --> 0:06:27.880
<v Speaker 1>Josh Jobs could do was run, and O'Connell still.

0:06:27.720 --> 0:06:28.280
<v Speaker 3>Didn't do it.

0:06:28.680 --> 0:06:30.800
<v Speaker 1>So you know, I don't know where the running is

0:06:30.800 --> 0:06:32.480
<v Speaker 1>going to settle in, but McCarthy's got.

0:06:32.320 --> 0:06:33.360
<v Speaker 3>The ability to do that.

0:06:33.640 --> 0:06:36.119
<v Speaker 1>Let me just mention the Vikings opening schedule here before

0:06:36.120 --> 0:06:38.680
<v Speaker 1>the buye. They're a pick them against the Giants in

0:06:38.760 --> 0:06:41.760
<v Speaker 1>Week one, and then it's all bad, bad news after

0:06:41.800 --> 0:06:46.320
<v Speaker 1>that Niners. Week two Texans. I've got the Texans, as

0:06:46.360 --> 0:06:48.360
<v Speaker 1>my AFC Super Bowl team tells you how I feel

0:06:48.360 --> 0:06:52.280
<v Speaker 1>about them. Then they go at lambeau Field. Then they've

0:06:52.279 --> 0:06:54.720
<v Speaker 1>got the Jets and the best maybe the best defense

0:06:54.760 --> 0:06:57.000
<v Speaker 1>in the league, and then they go into their by.

0:06:57.440 --> 0:06:59.520
<v Speaker 1>So if you know, even if they win that game

0:06:59.520 --> 0:07:02.680
<v Speaker 1>against the Giants, the probability in the betting line would

0:07:02.680 --> 0:07:05.839
<v Speaker 1>suggest this team's rolling into their Week six by at

0:07:05.880 --> 0:07:06.520
<v Speaker 1>one and four.

0:07:06.839 --> 0:07:09.239
<v Speaker 5>I think it would be JJ time at that point.

0:07:09.320 --> 0:07:12.080
<v Speaker 5>And I totally agree with that breakdown as well. Also,

0:07:12.200 --> 0:07:14.360
<v Speaker 5>you know what I mean, the kid just turned twenty one.

0:07:14.400 --> 0:07:16.960
<v Speaker 5>He was twenty win Michigan won the national title. There's

0:07:17.000 --> 0:07:19.120
<v Speaker 5>no reason to rush this and and I don't think

0:07:19.160 --> 0:07:21.600
<v Speaker 5>the Vikings will. But I again like, I think he's

0:07:21.640 --> 0:07:23.720
<v Speaker 5>going to be prove himself to be a better quarterback

0:07:23.760 --> 0:07:24.600
<v Speaker 5>than Darnold.

0:07:24.280 --> 0:07:27.920
<v Speaker 1>In short order, give me the deep dynasty pick that

0:07:28.000 --> 0:07:29.080
<v Speaker 1>you've got a quarterback.

0:07:29.400 --> 0:07:29.640
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:07:29.680 --> 0:07:32.240
<v Speaker 5>So we this year in the draft, we had of course,

0:07:32.240 --> 0:07:34.720
<v Speaker 5>as everyone knows, we had the sixth goal right away,

0:07:35.080 --> 0:07:37.720
<v Speaker 5>but then after that, after the sixth Bonnecks was taken,

0:07:37.920 --> 0:07:39.760
<v Speaker 5>we didn't have another run. End of the first round,

0:07:39.840 --> 0:07:42.320
<v Speaker 5>second round, third round, four or fourth round half.

0:07:42.440 --> 0:07:43.800
<v Speaker 4>So there was this enormous weight.

0:07:44.240 --> 0:07:46.800
<v Speaker 5>Once we got to the fifth round, the New Orleans

0:07:46.800 --> 0:07:50.360
<v Speaker 5>Saints end up taking Spencer Rattler for dynasty owners, That's

0:07:50.360 --> 0:07:53.360
<v Speaker 5>a guy that I would monitor. He's only behind car

0:07:53.440 --> 0:07:56.720
<v Speaker 5>right now. And then nominally Jay Cayner. Spencer Ratler is

0:07:56.720 --> 0:08:00.360
<v Speaker 5>a better quarterback than Jay Cayner. Spencer Ratler people might forget.

0:08:00.400 --> 0:08:02.760
<v Speaker 5>He was the top quarterback in his recruiting class coming

0:08:02.800 --> 0:08:05.360
<v Speaker 5>out and the first hand picked high school quarterback that

0:08:05.400 --> 0:08:07.880
<v Speaker 5>it ever started for Lincoln Riley. As a red shirt

0:08:07.920 --> 0:08:11.880
<v Speaker 5>freshman at Oklahoma, Spencer Rattler was absolutely incredible. People were

0:08:11.880 --> 0:08:14.000
<v Speaker 5>putting him as like the two early mocks, as the

0:08:14.080 --> 0:08:15.400
<v Speaker 5>number one pick in the draft.

0:08:15.680 --> 0:08:18.040
<v Speaker 4>The next year was when Kayleb Williams gets the town

0:08:18.080 --> 0:08:19.840
<v Speaker 4>and the whole thing got blown up.

0:08:19.840 --> 0:08:23.000
<v Speaker 5>Then Spencer Ratler transfers to South Carolina, where they had

0:08:23.040 --> 0:08:25.640
<v Speaker 5>one of the worst pass blocking offensive lines in the

0:08:25.760 --> 0:08:26.280
<v Speaker 5>entire country.

0:08:26.360 --> 0:08:26.920
<v Speaker 3>It was unreal.

0:08:27.000 --> 0:08:29.440
<v Speaker 1>I was trying to evaluate Spencer Rattler for the draft

0:08:29.480 --> 0:08:32.520
<v Speaker 1>thor you can't find a clean pocket for him to

0:08:32.559 --> 0:08:34.680
<v Speaker 1>just set up, And I'm just asking myself, what does

0:08:34.720 --> 0:08:36.839
<v Speaker 1>Spencer Ratler do in a clean pocket. When he's setting

0:08:36.880 --> 0:08:38.880
<v Speaker 1>up and he's throwing more than three yards downfield and

0:08:38.880 --> 0:08:39.360
<v Speaker 1>there's like.

0:08:39.400 --> 0:08:41.840
<v Speaker 3>No plays like that, the guy was just getting.

0:08:41.600 --> 0:08:43.160
<v Speaker 4>Murdered back there thousand percent.

0:08:43.280 --> 0:08:45.080
<v Speaker 5>Last time we saw it was during that red shirt

0:08:45.080 --> 0:08:48.560
<v Speaker 5>freshman year in twenty twenty at Oklahoma. He was number four.

0:08:48.559 --> 0:08:50.559
<v Speaker 5>Spencer Ratler was in the nation that year with a

0:08:50.640 --> 0:08:54.040
<v Speaker 5>ninety two point five PFF grade, which is sick led

0:08:54.080 --> 0:08:56.720
<v Speaker 5>the FBS and PFF big time throws under pressure and

0:08:56.760 --> 0:08:59.560
<v Speaker 5>passing grade out of structure. That gets back to what

0:08:59.600 --> 0:09:04.160
<v Speaker 5>hisar Rattler is similar ish in this regard to Bryce Young,

0:09:04.400 --> 0:09:07.000
<v Speaker 5>a guy who likes the field spread back in shotgun

0:09:07.080 --> 0:09:09.040
<v Speaker 5>so he can see the whole thing, and then he

0:09:09.160 --> 0:09:12.080
<v Speaker 5>likes to maneuver around to buy a little time, change

0:09:12.120 --> 0:09:15.600
<v Speaker 5>the launch angles and stuff like that. When you're moving around,

0:09:15.640 --> 0:09:17.720
<v Speaker 5>but you have a terrible sieve of an offensive line

0:09:17.720 --> 0:09:21.480
<v Speaker 5>that is immediately allowing pressure, your game is going to create,

0:09:21.600 --> 0:09:23.440
<v Speaker 5>which it did for Ratler at the beginning of twenty

0:09:23.480 --> 0:09:25.719
<v Speaker 5>twenty two. He figured it out the last three or

0:09:25.720 --> 0:09:28.679
<v Speaker 5>four games of that season, ripped up Clemson, ripped up

0:09:28.679 --> 0:09:33.040
<v Speaker 5>Notre Dame. He just had a great Tennessee great under

0:09:33.080 --> 0:09:35.320
<v Speaker 5>the season, and then this year the offensive line is

0:09:35.320 --> 0:09:38.679
<v Speaker 5>still stunk. Most of their guys had transferred out, Marshawn

0:09:38.720 --> 0:09:42.200
<v Speaker 5>Lloyd had transferred out. They guys go to the NFL.

0:09:42.400 --> 0:09:45.880
<v Speaker 5>Juice Wells gets hurt. He only had Xavier Legett there.

0:09:45.920 --> 0:09:48.319
<v Speaker 5>It was Xavier Lagat and pray for rain At helth Carolina.

0:09:48.480 --> 0:09:50.600
<v Speaker 5>But he played a lot better this year and going

0:09:50.600 --> 0:09:52.960
<v Speaker 5>to the NFL, he's finally going to be playing behind

0:09:52.960 --> 0:09:55.600
<v Speaker 5>a competent offensive line. I think that's where you could

0:09:55.600 --> 0:09:59.040
<v Speaker 5>see Spencer Ratler's pocket passing talent start to coalesce again.

0:09:59.160 --> 0:10:01.600
<v Speaker 1>All right, so he's he's only behind Derek Carr with

0:10:01.640 --> 0:10:05.880
<v Speaker 1>the Saints. It's not, you know, Derek carrs doesn't exactly

0:10:05.880 --> 0:10:08.880
<v Speaker 1>electrify anybody, you know. I would it surprise me if

0:10:08.880 --> 0:10:12.080
<v Speaker 1>Spencer Rattler is the starter next year.

0:10:12.520 --> 0:10:15.120
<v Speaker 4>No, No, not at all. And you think about this

0:10:15.200 --> 0:10:15.880
<v Speaker 4>coming season.

0:10:16.000 --> 0:10:18.720
<v Speaker 5>If Rattler indeed does beat out Jake Canner, which I

0:10:18.760 --> 0:10:21.440
<v Speaker 5>think is well with likely Yeah, and then the Saints

0:10:21.440 --> 0:10:24.440
<v Speaker 5>have a disappointing season, you might want to be getting

0:10:24.440 --> 0:10:26.120
<v Speaker 5>a look there at Ratler at the end of the season,

0:10:26.120 --> 0:10:28.000
<v Speaker 5>even if car doesn't end up getting hurt.

0:10:28.280 --> 0:10:30.080
<v Speaker 1>All right, we'll have to move a little more quickly

0:10:30.120 --> 0:10:31.679
<v Speaker 1>through the rest of our list, but let's go to

0:10:31.800 --> 0:10:32.400
<v Speaker 1>running backs.

0:10:32.840 --> 0:10:33.680
<v Speaker 3>Marshawn Lloyd.

0:10:33.840 --> 0:10:37.520
<v Speaker 1>If slots into Green Bay, obviously he's gonna He's got

0:10:37.520 --> 0:10:40.640
<v Speaker 1>a battle for time with Josh Jacobs. He's the USC

0:10:40.760 --> 0:10:44.760
<v Speaker 1>kid via South Carolina. As you mentioned, strong, a little

0:10:44.760 --> 0:10:47.120
<v Speaker 1>on the short side, but he runs upright, making him,

0:10:47.160 --> 0:10:50.520
<v Speaker 1>I think, feel taller than he actually measured at the combine.

0:10:50.920 --> 0:10:52.079
<v Speaker 3>I worry a little bit about.

0:10:51.880 --> 0:10:53.640
<v Speaker 1>Whether or not he's got NFL speed, but I like

0:10:53.679 --> 0:10:56.160
<v Speaker 1>the power side of Marshawn Lloyd's game. Talk to me

0:10:56.200 --> 0:10:57.760
<v Speaker 1>a little bit about him and why you think he's

0:10:57.800 --> 0:10:59.160
<v Speaker 1>a good sleeper candidate.

0:10:59.240 --> 0:11:01.679
<v Speaker 5>When he first got taken by the Packers, I hated

0:11:01.720 --> 0:11:04.240
<v Speaker 5>the landing spot, of course, and it sort of threw

0:11:04.280 --> 0:11:06.240
<v Speaker 5>some cold water on it for me, even though I

0:11:06.280 --> 0:11:09.640
<v Speaker 5>love the prospect. But thinking about it more and then

0:11:09.679 --> 0:11:12.840
<v Speaker 5>hearing from people around the Packers, I think Lloyd is

0:11:12.880 --> 0:11:18.280
<v Speaker 5>going to be nipping at Jacobs's heels real quick. Jacob's

0:11:18.440 --> 0:11:21.040
<v Speaker 5>contract so he got four years, forty eight million dollars.

0:11:21.320 --> 0:11:23.720
<v Speaker 4>What it actually is is a two year, twenty three

0:11:23.760 --> 0:11:25.000
<v Speaker 4>point six million.

0:11:24.720 --> 0:11:27.040
<v Speaker 3>Dollars, but that's still good running back money.

0:11:27.200 --> 0:11:28.560
<v Speaker 4>Still solid running back money.

0:11:28.559 --> 0:11:30.080
<v Speaker 5>But the Packers are going to be out of that

0:11:30.160 --> 0:11:33.320
<v Speaker 5>thing after next season, after the twenty twenty five season,

0:11:33.679 --> 0:11:37.360
<v Speaker 5>and you talk about not having incentive. Potentially you play

0:11:37.400 --> 0:11:40.240
<v Speaker 5>the better running back who is younger, if you know

0:11:40.280 --> 0:11:42.480
<v Speaker 5>you're gonna cut Jacobs the end of that year, that's

0:11:42.520 --> 0:11:45.000
<v Speaker 5>where I think for sure Lloyd ends up bypassing him.

0:11:45.640 --> 0:11:48.680
<v Speaker 5>I love Lloyd's talent. Jacobs last year, the way that

0:11:48.720 --> 0:11:51.920
<v Speaker 5>he looked out there coming off that three hundred plus

0:11:51.960 --> 0:11:54.000
<v Speaker 5>touch season that he'd had the year before. We have

0:11:54.120 --> 0:11:56.120
<v Speaker 5>numbers on this going back years and years and years,

0:11:56.160 --> 0:11:58.480
<v Speaker 5>and Jacobs appeared to depreciate a little bit.

0:11:58.720 --> 0:12:01.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, last year, he didn't looked like the prior guy.

0:12:01.520 --> 0:12:03.680
<v Speaker 1>We may find out that he was playing her or whatever,

0:12:03.760 --> 0:12:07.760
<v Speaker 1>or just the totality of the Adrian O'Connell offense was

0:12:07.800 --> 0:12:09.920
<v Speaker 1>not good and we had you know, there was even

0:12:09.920 --> 0:12:12.120
<v Speaker 1>worse quarterbacking than that at various times throughout the year

0:12:13.040 --> 0:12:13.840
<v Speaker 1>for Josh Jacobs.

0:12:13.880 --> 0:12:15.600
<v Speaker 3>So you can make an excuse. Can you can think that.

0:12:15.679 --> 0:12:18.080
<v Speaker 1>Josh Jacobs has the right to get better on a

0:12:18.240 --> 0:12:21.480
<v Speaker 1>way better offense, And I think that's probably the case,

0:12:21.520 --> 0:12:25.280
<v Speaker 1>but maybe again a little bit like Spencer Rallert next year,

0:12:25.280 --> 0:12:26.040
<v Speaker 1>who's your starter?

0:12:26.600 --> 0:12:29.720
<v Speaker 5>That's it for Dynasty guys in particular, especially because Lloyd

0:12:29.840 --> 0:12:32.280
<v Speaker 5>is going at a discomb because of that situation. Right,

0:12:32.520 --> 0:12:35.040
<v Speaker 5>but AJ Dillon can be cut at any time, was.

0:12:35.000 --> 0:12:36.160
<v Speaker 4>Given very I don't know.

0:12:36.200 --> 0:12:37.880
<v Speaker 3>I don't even think. Yeah, I think he could.

0:12:37.880 --> 0:12:41.160
<v Speaker 5>Cut this preseason, absolutely yeah, with no pain for the Packers.

0:12:41.200 --> 0:12:43.880
<v Speaker 5>So you can already consider Lloyd RB two with a

0:12:43.960 --> 0:12:47.320
<v Speaker 5>bullet And again, Jacob's only on that two year deal.

0:12:47.559 --> 0:12:49.480
<v Speaker 5>Other thing I'd say is I think Lloyd is a

0:12:49.480 --> 0:12:53.040
<v Speaker 5>better early down runner than Josh Jacobs. I think we're Jacobs.

0:12:53.600 --> 0:12:57.000
<v Speaker 5>It could become some sort of a time split distribution,

0:12:57.120 --> 0:12:59.600
<v Speaker 5>with Lloyd getting a lot more of those early down

0:12:59.640 --> 0:13:02.320
<v Speaker 5>type lie around the goal line, short yardage, et cetera.

0:13:02.440 --> 0:13:04.559
<v Speaker 5>Initially at Jacobs of course is gonna be on the

0:13:04.559 --> 0:13:06.400
<v Speaker 5>field for all the passing downs. He skilled it that,

0:13:06.559 --> 0:13:08.079
<v Speaker 5>but that's something to keep an eye on as a

0:13:08.120 --> 0:13:08.560
<v Speaker 5>rookie as well.

0:13:08.600 --> 0:13:12.040
<v Speaker 1>All right, let's go to Kamani Videll. He lands at

0:13:12.040 --> 0:13:15.320
<v Speaker 1>the Chargers intriguing spot. This is the kid from Troy.

0:13:15.440 --> 0:13:18.280
<v Speaker 1>Not many of us were watching Troy football, but they

0:13:18.280 --> 0:13:22.040
<v Speaker 1>brought in Gus Edwards and JK. Dobbins, who who followed

0:13:22.120 --> 0:13:25.920
<v Speaker 1>Greg Roman from Baltimore over here. Roman, you know, had

0:13:25.920 --> 0:13:28.040
<v Speaker 1>been the long time offensive coordinated there prior.

0:13:27.800 --> 0:13:32.200
<v Speaker 3>To last year. He's an interesting guy. I like to burst.

0:13:32.480 --> 0:13:34.920
<v Speaker 1>He's a good three down back. He's got better hands

0:13:34.960 --> 0:13:38.000
<v Speaker 1>than any other back on the Chargers roster, and he's

0:13:38.000 --> 0:13:40.920
<v Speaker 1>a good pass protector. Bidell could end up being for

0:13:41.720 --> 0:13:43.599
<v Speaker 1>a factor in the passing.

0:13:43.280 --> 0:13:45.760
<v Speaker 3>Game like Week one. He could be somebody who gets

0:13:45.760 --> 0:13:46.720
<v Speaker 3>on the field.

0:13:46.400 --> 0:13:50.680
<v Speaker 5>That way one thousand percent. Jim Harbaugh, everybody knows his offense.

0:13:50.760 --> 0:13:53.440
<v Speaker 5>The ethos is you run on the early downs and

0:13:53.480 --> 0:13:56.800
<v Speaker 5>then on third down either you have to get the

0:13:56.840 --> 0:14:00.840
<v Speaker 5>conversions you mentioned. Vedell was the best pass blocking back

0:14:00.960 --> 0:14:04.000
<v Speaker 5>in this class, so that is the passing down stuff.

0:14:04.040 --> 0:14:05.640
<v Speaker 5>I do think he's going to be on the field

0:14:05.640 --> 0:14:08.640
<v Speaker 5>on passing downs as a rookie. I also think he

0:14:08.679 --> 0:14:11.440
<v Speaker 5>has a decent shot to upset the two veterans ahead

0:14:11.440 --> 0:14:13.360
<v Speaker 5>of them, who also are not being given much. That

0:14:13.480 --> 0:14:16.320
<v Speaker 5>Chargers don't have a lot invested in those guys, Vdell.

0:14:17.080 --> 0:14:19.560
<v Speaker 5>What happened with the Chargers, They were certainly monitoring Blake

0:14:19.640 --> 0:14:22.120
<v Speaker 5>Korum during the draft ends up getting taken by the

0:14:22.160 --> 0:14:25.360
<v Speaker 5>other Los Angeles team across town. Vedell is about as

0:14:25.360 --> 0:14:28.480
<v Speaker 5>close as an animal gam for quorum as you could get.

0:14:28.480 --> 0:14:31.800
<v Speaker 5>They're about in the same physical package, but Vedell is

0:14:31.920 --> 0:14:35.320
<v Speaker 5>more athletic, was a ninetieth percentile athlete during the pre

0:14:35.440 --> 0:14:38.240
<v Speaker 5>draft process, also finished number two last season in the

0:14:38.320 --> 0:14:41.880
<v Speaker 5>NCAA and broken tackles, broken tackles.

0:14:41.520 --> 0:14:42.240
<v Speaker 4>Force excuse me.

0:14:42.440 --> 0:14:44.760
<v Speaker 5>He is very, very tough to square up, and he

0:14:44.920 --> 0:14:49.280
<v Speaker 5>runs like a bullet. It's just straightforward, hard charging. He

0:14:49.360 --> 0:14:52.320
<v Speaker 5>packs a lot more power into that condensed bowling ball frame.

0:14:52.560 --> 0:14:54.920
<v Speaker 4>I think then it sort of sneaks up on defenders.

0:14:55.360 --> 0:14:58.760
<v Speaker 1>I loved both Gus Edwards and JK. Dobbins prior to

0:14:58.800 --> 0:15:02.320
<v Speaker 1>their ACLS. They both, to me looked really, really good,

0:15:02.760 --> 0:15:06.040
<v Speaker 1>and it's it's really sad that the ACLS appeared to

0:15:06.160 --> 0:15:08.640
<v Speaker 1>have sapped the careers out of both of those guys.

0:15:08.720 --> 0:15:10.920
<v Speaker 3>Yes, but you know, but that's the nature of this game.

0:15:11.000 --> 0:15:13.360
<v Speaker 1>And Videl's got a chance to make an impact and

0:15:13.400 --> 0:15:15.800
<v Speaker 1>pass those guys on the depth chart, perhaps as early

0:15:15.840 --> 0:15:18.680
<v Speaker 1>again as week one. Absolutely, let's go to audric estime.

0:15:19.240 --> 0:15:22.040
<v Speaker 1>He lands in Denver, a spot I do not like

0:15:22.160 --> 0:15:26.000
<v Speaker 1>in this and what we're gonna end up talking about. Unfortunately,

0:15:26.040 --> 0:15:29.040
<v Speaker 1>because I'm a big Julia McLoughlin guy, I love him

0:15:29.120 --> 0:15:31.320
<v Speaker 1>and so I really I don't want to hear about

0:15:31.360 --> 0:15:33.480
<v Speaker 1>how great estimate is that he may end up passing

0:15:33.560 --> 0:15:35.760
<v Speaker 1>Jaliel because that's kind of my that's kind of my guy.

0:15:35.840 --> 0:15:37.960
<v Speaker 3>But let's talk about the Notre Dame back.

0:15:38.840 --> 0:15:42.680
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, someone who doesn't like someone a Broncos running back

0:15:42.680 --> 0:15:45.479
<v Speaker 5>as Sean Payton doesn't appear to like Javonte Williams.

0:15:45.120 --> 0:15:47.160
<v Speaker 3>And I didn't either. I thought he was bad last year.

0:15:47.280 --> 0:15:49.760
<v Speaker 5>So Jalil certainly is going to be on the field,

0:15:49.840 --> 0:15:51.600
<v Speaker 5>but he can't be on the field always, right.

0:15:51.640 --> 0:15:53.280
<v Speaker 4>There's size limitations.

0:15:52.760 --> 0:15:54.560
<v Speaker 5>Right there, and they're not a workhorse back. There's certain

0:15:54.600 --> 0:15:56.400
<v Speaker 5>things that are outside of his skill set as well.

0:15:56.880 --> 0:16:00.360
<v Speaker 5>Odric Estimate is not competing against Jalio. He is coming

0:16:00.400 --> 0:16:02.880
<v Speaker 5>against Javonte Walliams. That that is a guy that he

0:16:03.000 --> 0:16:06.000
<v Speaker 5>can beat, and then if that ends up happening, you

0:16:06.040 --> 0:16:08.520
<v Speaker 5>get some of the early downlooks, certainly the short yarded

0:16:08.560 --> 0:16:12.440
<v Speaker 5>stuff end around the goal line. Estimate is a sledgehammer

0:16:12.480 --> 0:16:15.040
<v Speaker 5>of a running back. Is six feet tall, two hundred

0:16:15.040 --> 0:16:17.840
<v Speaker 5>and twenty one pounds, runs with a ton of oomf

0:16:17.960 --> 0:16:21.440
<v Speaker 5>and power runs over guys. And he was only twenty

0:16:21.520 --> 0:16:24.480
<v Speaker 5>years old when he got drafted. These the one thing

0:16:24.560 --> 0:16:27.240
<v Speaker 5>he lacks, it's the long speed. You know, around four

0:16:27.240 --> 0:16:29.280
<v Speaker 5>to seven or high four to six is type speed.

0:16:29.600 --> 0:16:31.880
<v Speaker 5>But what he can do again is grind out those

0:16:31.960 --> 0:16:34.400
<v Speaker 5>yards every single time. It's like a Lee Ray Horde thing.

0:16:34.560 --> 0:16:36.000
<v Speaker 5>You need one year to get you three years. You

0:16:36.000 --> 0:16:37.440
<v Speaker 5>need five yards to get you three years.

0:16:37.520 --> 0:16:39.080
<v Speaker 4>That is utteric esime in the NFL.

0:16:39.280 --> 0:16:41.920
<v Speaker 1>All right, let's go to Tyrone Tracy, who lands in

0:16:41.960 --> 0:16:44.760
<v Speaker 1>a good spot with the Giants. Really not a lot

0:16:44.760 --> 0:16:48.560
<v Speaker 1>of competition there. Singletary's there is the presumed starter. The

0:16:48.600 --> 0:16:51.760
<v Speaker 1>Purdue kid is a converted wide receiver. He's a kick returner.

0:16:52.040 --> 0:16:55.040
<v Speaker 1>He's got this long, loping stride that you don't normally

0:16:55.080 --> 0:16:57.960
<v Speaker 1>see in running backs. And I don't love that part.

0:16:58.760 --> 0:17:01.200
<v Speaker 1>And he's got that slight build. But man, you get

0:17:01.280 --> 0:17:03.640
<v Speaker 1>him an open space and he looks really good. Well,

0:17:03.720 --> 0:17:06.040
<v Speaker 1>everybody looks good and open space, But tell me your

0:17:06.080 --> 0:17:07.480
<v Speaker 1>thoughts on Tyrone Tracy here.

0:17:07.880 --> 0:17:09.720
<v Speaker 5>Well, when he gets out into that open space, he

0:17:09.760 --> 0:17:13.680
<v Speaker 5>had the ninety eight percentile. He's got all the wheels

0:17:13.680 --> 0:17:16.600
<v Speaker 5>in the world four four eight during the pre draft process.

0:17:16.960 --> 0:17:20.359
<v Speaker 5>The other thing with him, he had more feel for

0:17:20.520 --> 0:17:24.240
<v Speaker 5>running than I would certainly have given him credit for

0:17:24.400 --> 0:17:27.200
<v Speaker 5>or thought was possible after he had converted to running

0:17:27.240 --> 0:17:30.040
<v Speaker 5>back after unfortunately playing four years at receiver at the

0:17:30.119 --> 0:17:31.840
<v Speaker 5>University of Iowa, which.

0:17:31.680 --> 0:17:34.040
<v Speaker 3>Doesn't give you a lot of volume.

0:17:34.240 --> 0:17:36.840
<v Speaker 5>No, and he was obviously frustrated by both you know,

0:17:36.880 --> 0:17:38.560
<v Speaker 5>the amount of targets he was getting and then also

0:17:38.560 --> 0:17:40.840
<v Speaker 5>the development he was getting there. But he found his

0:17:40.880 --> 0:17:43.840
<v Speaker 5>destiny going to produce switching to running back. Last year's

0:17:43.880 --> 0:17:47.480
<v Speaker 5>Purdue team was absolutely awful, and teams, especially the passing

0:17:47.520 --> 0:17:49.359
<v Speaker 5>game teams were able to load up against the run.

0:17:49.680 --> 0:17:52.560
<v Speaker 5>Despite that, Tyrone Tracy one hundred and sixty three point

0:17:52.560 --> 0:17:55.960
<v Speaker 5>five elusive rating four point four to four yards after

0:17:56.200 --> 0:17:59.280
<v Speaker 5>contact per attempt. Both of those were the highest of

0:17:59.280 --> 0:18:01.560
<v Speaker 5>any of my top thirty ranked running backs in the

0:18:01.640 --> 0:18:04.760
<v Speaker 5>last class. Wow, and Tracy can get out into space.

0:18:04.760 --> 0:18:06.720
<v Speaker 5>And this is for people out there that play in

0:18:06.800 --> 0:18:10.320
<v Speaker 5>leagues where they count kickoff return stats at lower touchdowns.

0:18:10.640 --> 0:18:13.679
<v Speaker 5>Another reason to maybe bump Tracy up a little bit

0:18:13.760 --> 0:18:15.760
<v Speaker 5>in your rankings. I think he is going to take

0:18:15.800 --> 0:18:18.159
<v Speaker 5>over as the kick returner there right away, you have

0:18:18.280 --> 0:18:19.040
<v Speaker 5>the new rules.

0:18:19.119 --> 0:18:19.320
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:18:19.359 --> 0:18:21.520
<v Speaker 5>What I like about his running style, I mean this

0:18:21.560 --> 0:18:23.200
<v Speaker 5>is the running style thing that goes back into the

0:18:23.280 --> 0:18:26.120
<v Speaker 5>kickoffs he had, Like I said, has the decent feel,

0:18:26.280 --> 0:18:29.200
<v Speaker 5>runs with the wide base and he can slash over,

0:18:30.560 --> 0:18:33.000
<v Speaker 5>you know, sort of bouncy, make people miss the first

0:18:33.000 --> 0:18:35.600
<v Speaker 5>guy off the cut, and then he finds his open crease.

0:18:35.840 --> 0:18:38.320
<v Speaker 5>That's where you see Tyrone. Tracy hit the burners. Only

0:18:38.359 --> 0:18:40.920
<v Speaker 5>Devin Singletary really ahead of him. I don't think much

0:18:40.920 --> 0:18:43.680
<v Speaker 5>of Eric Gray. I think Tracy goes in as RB two.

0:18:43.760 --> 0:18:46.640
<v Speaker 5>It's a team that might be. They're amid a rebuild

0:18:46.720 --> 0:18:48.920
<v Speaker 5>right now. They don't have a ton of loyalty to

0:18:48.960 --> 0:18:52.320
<v Speaker 5>Singletary who just came in. I think Tracy again nipping

0:18:52.359 --> 0:18:54.840
<v Speaker 5>at his heels early on, and if Singletary gets hurt,

0:18:55.040 --> 0:18:56.600
<v Speaker 5>I think Tracy becomes the RB one.

0:18:56.600 --> 0:18:59.920
<v Speaker 1>There your deep dynasty guy, somebody. I really haven't spent

0:19:00.080 --> 0:19:05.640
<v Speaker 1>much time with Dylan Lowby. Dylan Lowby lands in Las Vegas.

0:19:05.640 --> 0:19:08.200
<v Speaker 4>Where do he play again? Remind me he played at

0:19:08.240 --> 0:19:09.680
<v Speaker 4>New Hampshire and yah.

0:19:09.640 --> 0:19:12.040
<v Speaker 3>That's why I did not see a lot of Dylan Lowby.

0:19:12.359 --> 0:19:15.520
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, okay, yeah, he was up there in the FCS.

0:19:15.560 --> 0:19:17.920
<v Speaker 5>But the thing that he is really really good at

0:19:17.960 --> 0:19:20.520
<v Speaker 5>it's catching the ball. And right now, the Raiders at

0:19:20.560 --> 0:19:23.600
<v Speaker 5>running back, you have Samir White. He is a grinder. Yeah,

0:19:23.720 --> 0:19:26.520
<v Speaker 5>sort of just the guy, but he's a grinder. Alexander

0:19:26.560 --> 0:19:30.320
<v Speaker 5>Madison stings. I'm sorry, mister Madison, if you're out there,

0:19:30.600 --> 0:19:33.399
<v Speaker 5>I think Lowby takes over right away as that team's

0:19:33.440 --> 0:19:36.080
<v Speaker 5>passing down back. Samir White for sure is going to

0:19:36.160 --> 0:19:38.480
<v Speaker 5>have the early downstuff and you're gonna give him all

0:19:38.520 --> 0:19:40.639
<v Speaker 5>the handoffs and whatnot. But you need to have Dylan

0:19:40.680 --> 0:19:43.280
<v Speaker 5>Lobby on the field on passing downs. He's really, really,

0:19:43.320 --> 0:19:44.199
<v Speaker 5>really skilled at that.

0:19:44.440 --> 0:19:48.280
<v Speaker 1>Okay, all right, so PPR League Dylan Lobby as somebody

0:19:48.280 --> 0:19:50.880
<v Speaker 1>that you can you can throw throw a dart at

0:19:50.920 --> 0:19:53.479
<v Speaker 1>at with a last pick of your Dynasty draft. I

0:19:53.560 --> 0:19:55.760
<v Speaker 1>like Ray Davis, you and I disagree on him, the

0:19:55.800 --> 0:19:58.040
<v Speaker 1>kid from Louisville. You and I've talked about him way

0:19:58.040 --> 0:20:02.080
<v Speaker 1>back shortly after the draft, as I recall what you

0:20:02.119 --> 0:20:04.520
<v Speaker 1>were talking about with Ray Davis and who landed in Buffalo.

0:20:04.600 --> 0:20:07.680
<v Speaker 1>Kid from you Louisville. Was you like that he can

0:20:07.680 --> 0:20:10.679
<v Speaker 1>do everything? You feel like he does everything? Okay, but

0:20:10.760 --> 0:20:12.520
<v Speaker 1>he's not special in anything, and you have to have

0:20:12.560 --> 0:20:14.600
<v Speaker 1>some special traits to succeed in the NFL.

0:20:15.240 --> 0:20:19.119
<v Speaker 3>I think he's really good at everything.

0:20:18.880 --> 0:20:19.040
<v Speaker 4>You know.

0:20:19.080 --> 0:20:21.320
<v Speaker 1>I think he's like an eight out of ten at everything.

0:20:21.359 --> 0:20:22.680
<v Speaker 1>He's just not a nine or a ten.

0:20:23.440 --> 0:20:24.359
<v Speaker 3>And I think there's going to.

0:20:24.359 --> 0:20:27.960
<v Speaker 1>Be a role for Ray Davis to play, and perhaps

0:20:28.040 --> 0:20:30.760
<v Speaker 1>at the goal line, because James Cook is really he's

0:20:30.800 --> 0:20:33.520
<v Speaker 1>not a power back, and Ray Davis can.

0:20:33.720 --> 0:20:37.119
<v Speaker 3>He can really give you some oomph. And I like

0:20:37.200 --> 0:20:39.080
<v Speaker 3>this kid and well and.

0:20:39.080 --> 0:20:41.840
<v Speaker 1>Buffalo is just based on the wide receivers, they're going

0:20:41.920 --> 0:20:43.679
<v Speaker 1>to have to do more with their running backs than

0:20:43.720 --> 0:20:44.560
<v Speaker 1>they did last year.

0:20:44.840 --> 0:20:47.400
<v Speaker 5>Absolutely, yeah, and that is a role that I could

0:20:47.440 --> 0:20:51.040
<v Speaker 5>see him taking over pretty early. On My nitpick with

0:20:51.160 --> 0:20:54.439
<v Speaker 5>Davis was more the lack of ceiling and at that

0:20:54.520 --> 0:20:57.199
<v Speaker 5>position in the draft, I would be swinging for the

0:20:57.240 --> 0:21:00.440
<v Speaker 5>fences every single time. But to your point, Thank he's

0:21:00.680 --> 0:21:04.359
<v Speaker 5>solid to good at almost every metric that you would

0:21:04.359 --> 0:21:06.760
<v Speaker 5>look at running back play. It's just you don't have

0:21:06.800 --> 0:21:09.400
<v Speaker 5>this special athleticism, you don't have some of.

0:21:09.359 --> 0:21:10.560
<v Speaker 4>The special trades.

0:21:10.840 --> 0:21:13.680
<v Speaker 5>But for a guy what they're looking for behind Cook,

0:21:13.760 --> 0:21:15.720
<v Speaker 5>I think he could absolutely fit the bill this year.

0:21:15.800 --> 0:21:17.480
<v Speaker 1>Let's take a break through and we come back. Let's

0:21:17.520 --> 0:21:19.760

<v Speaker 1>wide receiver and tight end position. Welcome back Fantasy Football Weekly.

0:21:40.520 --> 0:21:42.080
<v Speaker 3>A lot going on behind the scenes.

0:21:42.280 --> 0:21:44.399
<v Speaker 1>I'm super excited to talk to you about it when

0:21:44.440 --> 0:21:46.639
<v Speaker 1>the time's right and show you some of the new

0:21:46.680 --> 0:21:48.439
<v Speaker 1>stuff we've been working on in the off season. Very

0:21:48.480 --> 0:21:51.440
<v Speaker 1>excited for that as well. Gullantine Leagues coming your way soon.

0:21:51.840 --> 0:21:55.000
<v Speaker 1>Let's go to the wide receiver position, Thor. We've got

0:21:55.000 --> 0:21:59.040
<v Speaker 1>some deep sleepers, beginning with Roman Wilson, currently going off

0:21:59.080 --> 0:22:02.640
<v Speaker 1>the board in antasy drafts as pick number twenty one

0:22:02.640 --> 0:22:05.400
<v Speaker 1>in Rookie Dynasty drafts. This is the kid from Michigan.

0:22:06.480 --> 0:22:08.720
<v Speaker 1>There were things I liked about him. I liked the separation.

0:22:08.960 --> 0:22:11.960
<v Speaker 1>I like that he finds cushion. I liked his route tree.

0:22:12.040 --> 0:22:13.800
<v Speaker 1>I liked how many routes he ran over the.

0:22:13.800 --> 0:22:15.520
<v Speaker 3>Middle of the field and could be effective in the

0:22:15.520 --> 0:22:16.240
<v Speaker 3>middle of the field.

0:22:16.359 --> 0:22:18.879
<v Speaker 1>It's a lot easier to play wide receiver when you

0:22:18.880 --> 0:22:21.280
<v Speaker 1>don't have any defenders on one side of you, because

0:22:21.280 --> 0:22:24.720
<v Speaker 1>that's the sideline. I like guys who can find separation

0:22:24.800 --> 0:22:26.560
<v Speaker 1>in the middle of the field. There's a lot about

0:22:26.640 --> 0:22:29.680
<v Speaker 1>Roman Wilson that I find pretty compelling, and he finds

0:22:29.720 --> 0:22:32.280
<v Speaker 1>himself now with the Steelers and a team with a

0:22:32.320 --> 0:22:33.560
<v Speaker 1>lot of need at receiver.

0:22:33.520 --> 0:22:35.679
<v Speaker 5>A lot of need at receiver, and Roman Wilson going

0:22:35.760 --> 0:22:37.679
<v Speaker 5>to be the starting slot from day one. He was

0:22:37.720 --> 0:22:39.920
<v Speaker 5>the second that they turned that cart, and you know,

0:22:40.040 --> 0:22:42.240
<v Speaker 5>to your point, you're looking at their depth. Charte, George

0:22:42.240 --> 0:22:43.960
<v Speaker 5>Pickens and Van Jefferson and.

0:22:44.240 --> 0:22:45.480
<v Speaker 3>Van Jefferson, I love.

0:22:45.600 --> 0:22:46.280
<v Speaker 4>They have to put the.

0:22:46.200 --> 0:22:47.720
<v Speaker 5>Ball in the air at some point, and I think

0:22:47.840 --> 0:22:50.560
<v Speaker 5>Roman Wilson is going to command a lot of targets immediately.

0:22:50.720 --> 0:22:53.159
<v Speaker 5>For a guy right now who in Rookie ADP is

0:22:53.200 --> 0:22:55.520
<v Speaker 5>the twenty first rookie going off the board, I just

0:22:55.560 --> 0:22:57.880
<v Speaker 5>think that that's a little cheap for him. I think

0:22:57.880 --> 0:23:00.719
<v Speaker 5>he should be going a little bit above that. He's small,

0:23:00.960 --> 0:23:03.640
<v Speaker 5>for sure, one hundred and eighty five pounds five to ten,

0:23:04.119 --> 0:23:07.440
<v Speaker 5>but he's athletic eighty six percentile runs in the high

0:23:07.520 --> 0:23:08.159
<v Speaker 5>four threes.

0:23:08.560 --> 0:23:09.880
<v Speaker 4>And the thing with him is.

0:23:09.960 --> 0:23:12.440
<v Speaker 5>Yes, the body is small, and that's why he has

0:23:12.480 --> 0:23:14.280
<v Speaker 5>to play the slot. But the thing that I always

0:23:14.320 --> 0:23:17.159
<v Speaker 5>point out with Roman Wilson, he had only two drops

0:23:17.280 --> 0:23:20.960
<v Speaker 5>zero fumbles twenty twenty two, only one drop, zero fumbles

0:23:21.000 --> 0:23:23.960
<v Speaker 5>last year as the wide receiver one for Michigan's undefeated team.

0:23:24.240 --> 0:23:26.960
<v Speaker 5>And the reason to extrapolate this ford and think it

0:23:27.000 --> 0:23:30.200
<v Speaker 5>has predictive value is well, Roman Wilson's body is small.

0:23:30.440 --> 0:23:34.680
<v Speaker 5>His hands happened to be enormous. He has the They're

0:23:34.720 --> 0:23:38.000
<v Speaker 5>bigger than Roman Dunesa's hands. Roman Wilson are one eighth

0:23:38.000 --> 0:23:40.240
<v Speaker 5>of an inch smaller than Marvin Harrison's. They're the same

0:23:40.280 --> 0:23:42.280
<v Speaker 5>size as Xavier la Get all these receivers that are

0:23:42.280 --> 0:23:45.360
<v Speaker 5>bigger than him. Yeah, he doesn't flub balls. He's extremely

0:23:45.520 --> 0:23:48.040
<v Speaker 5>reliable running the routes like you mentioned, And he's not

0:23:48.080 --> 0:23:50.680
<v Speaker 5>one of those slots, for instance, like Malachi Corley, another

0:23:50.760 --> 0:23:53.240
<v Speaker 5>rookie where you have to manufacture such as close to

0:23:53.240 --> 0:23:55.800
<v Speaker 5>the line of scrimmage. Roman Wilson can win deep and

0:23:55.840 --> 0:23:58.320
<v Speaker 5>did plenty for JJ McCarthy in that Michigan team.

0:23:58.720 --> 0:24:02.920
<v Speaker 1>All right, Let's go to Jermaine from Alabama via Georgia

0:24:03.240 --> 0:24:05.880
<v Speaker 1>where he was very lightly used, goes to Alabama, still

0:24:05.960 --> 0:24:08.360
<v Speaker 1>kind of lightly used. He falls into Cincinnati. I see

0:24:08.400 --> 0:24:11.840
<v Speaker 1>a very raw project, but I see an NFL level

0:24:11.920 --> 0:24:14.840
<v Speaker 1>athlete in Jermaine Burton. I don't know that he has

0:24:14.880 --> 0:24:17.320
<v Speaker 1>an impact this year, but with the T Higgins thing

0:24:17.480 --> 0:24:21.040
<v Speaker 1>really on a timer, at this time next year, there.

0:24:21.000 --> 0:24:21.919
<v Speaker 3>Is another one of those.

0:24:22.240 --> 0:24:24.520
<v Speaker 1>At this time next year, Jermaine Burton could be a

0:24:24.560 --> 0:24:27.120
<v Speaker 1>starting receiver for an offense led by Joe Burrow.

0:24:27.119 --> 0:24:28.320
<v Speaker 3>Which is a pretty good spot to be in.

0:24:28.800 --> 0:24:31.439
<v Speaker 5>For sure, it is and Jermaine Burton. This is going

0:24:31.520 --> 0:24:34.119
<v Speaker 5>to come down to Jermaine Burton deciding he wants to

0:24:34.160 --> 0:24:36.760
<v Speaker 5>be an above average NFL player or stay in the

0:24:36.880 --> 0:24:38.960
<v Speaker 5>NFL for a while. The talent has never been an

0:24:38.960 --> 0:24:42.200
<v Speaker 5>issue for Jermaine Burton. It's always been his attitude. And

0:24:42.400 --> 0:24:46.199
<v Speaker 5>if he corrects that and that's different going forward, he

0:24:46.280 --> 0:24:48.520
<v Speaker 5>will be a long term starter with the Bengals obviously

0:24:48.520 --> 0:24:50.840
<v Speaker 5>a very advantageous passing environment there.

0:24:51.119 --> 0:24:52.840
<v Speaker 4>Last year, Jermain Burton didn't get.

0:24:52.680 --> 0:24:54.800
<v Speaker 5>To show off his all the skills that he has

0:24:55.080 --> 0:24:57.800
<v Speaker 5>because he had a ludicrous twenty point two a dot

0:24:57.800 --> 0:25:00.320
<v Speaker 5>that led this wide receiver class, which be because the

0:25:00.400 --> 0:25:02.879
<v Speaker 5>quarterback he was playing with at Alabama, Jalen Millroe, a

0:25:02.880 --> 0:25:05.760
<v Speaker 5>scrambler who then also just chucks the ball a mile.

0:25:05.960 --> 0:25:08.560
<v Speaker 5>The accuracy of everything in between can come and go.

0:25:08.920 --> 0:25:11.160
<v Speaker 5>But that's why Jermaine Burton was down the field so much.

0:25:11.400 --> 0:25:14.080
<v Speaker 5>Earlier in his career. He showed he could win short

0:25:14.240 --> 0:25:17.160
<v Speaker 5>make people miss, and then the intermediate range as well.

0:25:17.400 --> 0:25:19.239
<v Speaker 5>So I think this guy potentially could win at all

0:25:19.280 --> 0:25:21.919
<v Speaker 5>three levels in the NFL, certainly as the athleticism for it,

0:25:22.359 --> 0:25:24.280
<v Speaker 5>will the attitude be there for Jermaine Burton.

0:25:24.760 --> 0:25:27.240
<v Speaker 1>Luke McCaffrey is next on your list. You and I

0:25:27.280 --> 0:25:29.199
<v Speaker 1>are going to disagree on Luke McCaffrey. I don't like

0:25:29.280 --> 0:25:31.520
<v Speaker 1>him looking at you, and you've seen more of him

0:25:31.520 --> 0:25:34.200
<v Speaker 1>than I have, just watching a couple of games of

0:25:34.720 --> 0:25:38.280
<v Speaker 1>routes and and and passes his way. I don't like

0:25:38.320 --> 0:25:40.520
<v Speaker 1>the size. I don't like how underpowered he is. I

0:25:40.560 --> 0:25:42.560
<v Speaker 1>didn't see a lot of separation. I just think he

0:25:42.600 --> 0:25:45.720
<v Speaker 1>needs more strength. I understand just reading up on him.

0:25:45.760 --> 0:25:49.399
<v Speaker 1>The intangibles are phenomenal, and obviously he's in the McCaffrey family,

0:25:49.800 --> 0:25:52.959
<v Speaker 1>So you know that's family. The DNA is good, but

0:25:53.080 --> 0:25:55.440
<v Speaker 1>I didn't love the production. And you know, and Rice,

0:25:55.520 --> 0:25:57.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't even know how much I can gage. The

0:25:57.320 --> 0:25:59.879
<v Speaker 1>last notable player to come from Rice is Tommy Kramer. Right,

0:26:01.640 --> 0:26:03.280
<v Speaker 1>talk to me about Luke McCaffrey and tell me why

0:26:03.320 --> 0:26:03.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm ron.

0:26:04.280 --> 0:26:07.679
<v Speaker 5>Luke McCaffrey I think is a perfect fit for Washington,

0:26:07.960 --> 0:26:11.640
<v Speaker 5>particularly because of the game of their first pick, Jalen Daniels,

0:26:11.680 --> 0:26:13.520
<v Speaker 5>where he loves to throw the ball.

0:26:13.440 --> 0:26:15.679
<v Speaker 4>Down the field, Yes, including to the slot.

0:26:15.760 --> 0:26:18.760
<v Speaker 5>Now, I think McCaffrey could play either inside or outside

0:26:19.040 --> 0:26:20.879
<v Speaker 5>at the next level. He played seventy percent of his

0:26:21.320 --> 0:26:24.920
<v Speaker 5>snaps in the slot. Well at Rice thirty percent on

0:26:25.200 --> 0:26:28.280
<v Speaker 5>the outside. But the reason for that was Number One,

0:26:28.400 --> 0:26:31.000
<v Speaker 5>Luke McCaffrey just started playing the wide receiver position two

0:26:31.040 --> 0:26:33.520
<v Speaker 5>years ago after busting as a dual threat quarterback earlier

0:26:33.520 --> 0:26:34.040
<v Speaker 5>in his career.

0:26:34.160 --> 0:26:35.040
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and the G.

0:26:35.119 --> 0:26:36.800
<v Speaker 5>Five programs a lot of times will put their best

0:26:36.840 --> 0:26:39.120
<v Speaker 5>receiver closer to the quarterback make it easier on them.

0:26:39.240 --> 0:26:42.680
<v Speaker 5>But McCaffrey is tremendous down the field. Tremendous is getting

0:26:42.680 --> 0:26:45.360
<v Speaker 5>down the field and then the contested situations down there.

0:26:45.359 --> 0:26:49.159
<v Speaker 5>Seventeen of twenty eight last year, only three drops on

0:26:49.160 --> 0:26:51.760
<v Speaker 5>one hundred and twenty targets in twenty twenty three. That

0:26:51.760 --> 0:26:55.280
<v Speaker 5>guy catches all these balls in tight quarters between two defenders,

0:26:55.480 --> 0:26:58.280
<v Speaker 5>a defender descending down on him, catches the ball, gets smacked,

0:26:58.280 --> 0:27:01.760
<v Speaker 5>his helmet pops off. Whether that's playing the slot which

0:27:02.119 --> 0:27:05.560
<v Speaker 5>jalen last year, Jayden and Daniels throwing downtown to Molik

0:27:05.600 --> 0:27:08.200
<v Speaker 5>neighbors all the time, or on the other side of

0:27:08.520 --> 0:27:12.480
<v Speaker 5>McLaren depending on what happens with Johan dottson there. McCaffrey

0:27:12.520 --> 0:27:14.359
<v Speaker 5>can win down the field. I also think you're going

0:27:14.400 --> 0:27:17.760
<v Speaker 5>to see more of progression from him as a route runner,

0:27:18.280 --> 0:27:19.560
<v Speaker 5>certainly in the intermediate range.

0:27:19.560 --> 0:27:20.880
<v Speaker 4>Again, keep in mind he only.

0:27:20.680 --> 0:27:23.320
<v Speaker 5>Played those two years of a receiver after switching over

0:27:23.520 --> 0:27:26.120
<v Speaker 5>the one other thing to keep in mind with McCaffrey vs.

0:27:26.160 --> 0:27:29.520
<v Speaker 5>AV his fantasy value the next level the former dual

0:27:29.560 --> 0:27:32.680
<v Speaker 5>threat quarterback thing. He can do trick plays, and Rice

0:27:32.760 --> 0:27:34.600
<v Speaker 5>had a whole lot of fun with him on ender

0:27:34.680 --> 0:27:37.840
<v Speaker 5>rounds and gadget plays. McCaffrey ended up breaking twenty five

0:27:38.000 --> 0:27:40.480
<v Speaker 5>tackles over the last two years, did not fumble the

0:27:40.520 --> 0:27:43.240
<v Speaker 5>ball one time. You're going to see him used by

0:27:43.359 --> 0:27:45.760
<v Speaker 5>Washington on some trick plays, all right, Javon Baker.

0:27:45.840 --> 0:27:48.240
<v Speaker 1>Right after the draft, when we looked at the Patriots draft,

0:27:48.520 --> 0:27:51.520
<v Speaker 1>they took Jalen Polk in the second round and then

0:27:51.560 --> 0:27:53.359
<v Speaker 1>they took Baker in the fourth round. And like the

0:27:53.440 --> 0:27:56.560
<v Speaker 1>day after the draft, you're on this show saying I

0:27:56.720 --> 0:27:59.720
<v Speaker 1>like Baker, yeah, more than I like Polk. You're happy

0:27:59.720 --> 0:28:01.440
<v Speaker 1>to see land in this spot. And I think Drake

0:28:01.440 --> 0:28:03.520
<v Speaker 1>May's gonna be great. Uh, talk to me about the

0:28:03.560 --> 0:28:06.200
<v Speaker 1>kid from Central Florida via Alabama.

0:28:06.480 --> 0:28:08.440
<v Speaker 5>I would pick him over Polk, And for me, it

0:28:08.440 --> 0:28:11.679
<v Speaker 5>wouldn't be much of a you know thought there. I

0:28:11.680 --> 0:28:13.919
<v Speaker 5>think Baker assents to the top of their wide receiver

0:28:14.000 --> 0:28:17.960
<v Speaker 5>room very quickly. Speaking of good fits with with particular quarterbacks,

0:28:17.960 --> 0:28:20.520
<v Speaker 5>the thing that Drake made is best at is flinging

0:28:20.600 --> 0:28:24.639
<v Speaker 5>bombs down the field. Last year, Javon Baker was the

0:28:24.640 --> 0:28:26.880
<v Speaker 5>only guy that was beneath Jermaine Burton and a dott

0:28:26.960 --> 0:28:31.440
<v Speaker 5>seventeen point one, a dot h just assassin downfield at

0:28:31.520 --> 0:28:34.640
<v Speaker 5>UCF was Javon Baker attacks the ball in the air,

0:28:34.760 --> 0:28:37.239
<v Speaker 5>latches onto that thing. He can get jarred and he's

0:28:37.280 --> 0:28:38.920
<v Speaker 5>still going to come down with the ball. Twenty of

0:28:39.000 --> 0:28:41.600
<v Speaker 5>thirty six and contested scenarios the last two years for

0:28:42.000 --> 0:28:44.920
<v Speaker 5>Burton or I'm sorry for Javon Baker. He's also very

0:28:44.960 --> 0:28:46.840
<v Speaker 5>good after the catch, breaks tackles.

0:28:46.880 --> 0:28:47.720
<v Speaker 4>He is elusive.

0:28:48.000 --> 0:28:50.040
<v Speaker 5>The one thing he needs to clean up his concentration

0:28:50.200 --> 0:28:53.840
<v Speaker 5>drops drops with a little over front. Yeah, yeah, that's

0:28:53.880 --> 0:28:56.120
<v Speaker 5>the one thing. But if he can clean those concentration

0:28:56.240 --> 0:28:58.240
<v Speaker 5>drops up, and he has great hands, so it is

0:28:58.400 --> 0:29:01.280
<v Speaker 5>this is a concentration issue. If he cleans that up,

0:29:01.480 --> 0:29:03.280
<v Speaker 5>like I said, I think he has sends very quickly

0:29:03.280 --> 0:29:04.520
<v Speaker 5>to the top of that depth Shart.

0:29:04.480 --> 0:29:08.120
<v Speaker 1>All right, that's Javon Baker. You're deep sleeper at wide receiver.

0:29:09.200 --> 0:29:14.240
<v Speaker 1>Malik Davis from Virginia finds himself from Miami. Obviously that's

0:29:14.240 --> 0:29:17.680
<v Speaker 1>a that's a pretty stacked depth chart. But that doesn't

0:29:17.720 --> 0:29:18.960
<v Speaker 1>mean we don't like the kid. What do you what

0:29:18.960 --> 0:29:20.600
<v Speaker 1>do you like about Milk Washington?

0:29:21.160 --> 0:29:25.040
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, so with him, Miami of course has the awesome

0:29:25.120 --> 0:29:27.920
<v Speaker 5>two receivers at the top, but they've been looking for

0:29:28.000 --> 0:29:31.480
<v Speaker 5>ancillary receiving options when they have three wide receivers on

0:29:31.520 --> 0:29:33.120
<v Speaker 5>the field. I think you were going to see Melik

0:29:33.240 --> 0:29:36.240
<v Speaker 5>Washington in the slot last year in Virginia. He blew

0:29:36.320 --> 0:29:39.800
<v Speaker 5>up doing that. Thirty five broken tackles for Malik Washington

0:29:39.880 --> 0:29:41.880
<v Speaker 5>last year. That was five more than the next highest

0:29:41.880 --> 0:29:44.800
<v Speaker 5>finisher in this class, which was a guy named Melik Neighbors.

0:29:45.560 --> 0:29:48.440
<v Speaker 5>So Washington brings the ball in and then he has

0:29:48.480 --> 0:29:51.920
<v Speaker 5>this short compact, just sort of muscle hamster type frame

0:29:51.960 --> 0:29:54.040
<v Speaker 5>to him. He is not afraid to catch the ball

0:29:54.080 --> 0:29:57.000
<v Speaker 5>middle of the field, has eighty nine percentile athleticism. But

0:29:57.040 --> 0:30:00.000
<v Speaker 5>then he's got the acceleration and will run through arm tape,

0:30:00.520 --> 0:30:03.840
<v Speaker 5>arm tackles, off angle attempts and stuff like that. Pile

0:30:03.920 --> 0:30:05.120
<v Speaker 5>up the broken tackles.

0:30:05.200 --> 0:30:08.280
<v Speaker 1>All right, that's Malik Washington. Now we go to tight end.

0:30:08.360 --> 0:30:10.240
<v Speaker 1>There's a player that you talked about going into the draft.

0:30:10.320 --> 0:30:11.920
<v Speaker 1>You and I talked about him right after the draft,

0:30:11.960 --> 0:30:15.960
<v Speaker 1>and the landing spot is very encouraging. Iowa tight end

0:30:16.120 --> 0:30:18.960
<v Speaker 1>Eric All, who finds himself in Cincinnati, and we.

0:30:19.320 --> 0:30:20.120
<v Speaker 3>Love his quarterback.

0:30:20.240 --> 0:30:22.720
<v Speaker 1>We love the fact that he might right now be

0:30:22.760 --> 0:30:24.560
<v Speaker 1>the best tight end on roster and could start in

0:30:24.720 --> 0:30:28.560
<v Speaker 1>very short order. Talk to me about Eric All, the

0:30:28.640 --> 0:30:31.560
<v Speaker 1>kid he transferred from Michigan, went to Iowa for a.

0:30:31.600 --> 0:30:33.720
<v Speaker 3>Year, so he got the Iowa tight.

0:30:33.680 --> 0:30:36.520
<v Speaker 1>End treatment, if only for a year thor and now

0:30:36.520 --> 0:30:37.880
<v Speaker 1>he's got this nice opportunity.

0:30:38.160 --> 0:30:41.760
<v Speaker 5>I think he bypasses Mike Kiseki for t one the

0:30:41.840 --> 0:30:46.320
<v Speaker 5>gig as a rookie. Eric All tremendous athlete. He has size,

0:30:46.360 --> 0:30:48.840
<v Speaker 5>speed and feet. Wasn't able to test during the pre

0:30:48.920 --> 0:30:52.000
<v Speaker 5>draft process because he tore his ACL at Iowa in October,

0:30:52.320 --> 0:30:54.040
<v Speaker 5>but he would have been running in the high four

0:30:54.120 --> 0:30:56.680
<v Speaker 5>fours or low four fives, which would have put him

0:30:56.760 --> 0:31:00.280
<v Speaker 5>number two among testers at his position group. The thing

0:31:00.360 --> 0:31:03.280
<v Speaker 5>you like about him is the ball skills in conjunction

0:31:03.400 --> 0:31:06.240
<v Speaker 5>with that athleticism, and then he can end up running.

0:31:06.560 --> 0:31:09.800
<v Speaker 5>He was destructive for Iowa when he was on the field.

0:31:09.840 --> 0:31:12.280
<v Speaker 5>He was number one among all FBS tight ends in

0:31:12.400 --> 0:31:15.360
<v Speaker 5>yards per route run prior to tearing that ECO. That

0:31:15.560 --> 0:31:19.400
<v Speaker 5>was on that abomination of an Iowa passing offense, which

0:31:19.600 --> 0:31:22.880
<v Speaker 5>I can say because I went to Iowa wasn't fun

0:31:22.920 --> 0:31:25.200
<v Speaker 5>to watch. But All ended up leading the Hawkeys in

0:31:25.280 --> 0:31:28.040
<v Speaker 5>receiving last year despite playing in less than half of

0:31:28.080 --> 0:31:30.360
<v Speaker 5>the games. He has been the pass catching tight end

0:31:30.440 --> 0:31:32.520
<v Speaker 5>Joe Burrow has been crying out for, and I think

0:31:32.560 --> 0:31:34.400
<v Speaker 5>he's gonna be on the field and solidify that job.

0:31:34.560 --> 0:31:36.720
<v Speaker 4>Carrie going forward in very short order.

0:31:36.880 --> 0:31:40.240
<v Speaker 1>Eric Hall going off the board in Rookie Drafts, Rookie

0:31:40.280 --> 0:31:42.520
<v Speaker 1>Dynasty Drafts, Pick forty seven.

0:31:42.600 --> 0:31:45.840
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, it's way too low for way too low, especially

0:31:45.880 --> 0:31:47.640
<v Speaker 5>in a tight end class where there's just not many

0:31:47.640 --> 0:31:49.920
<v Speaker 5>other guys like he is the guy who could.

0:31:49.720 --> 0:31:50.800
<v Speaker 4>Blow up and become a star.

0:31:51.000 --> 0:31:54.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, well Flowers, Yeah, well not Bowers, but yes, after that,

0:31:54.880 --> 0:31:56.560
<v Speaker 1>Bowers is in his own file.

0:31:56.720 --> 0:31:58.680
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, and then it really yeah, you know, we're talking

0:31:58.680 --> 0:32:00.800
<v Speaker 5>about Senate and Eric all pretty much those are the

0:32:00.840 --> 0:32:01.680
<v Speaker 5>two guys at Target.

0:32:02.120 --> 0:32:04.239
