Speaker 1: We did it. People said you'd never make it twenty

7
00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:37,280
Speaker 1: six years, and we did seven years. That's the voice

Speaker 1: that's the last year. I want to thank the seven

00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 1: thousand hundred dollars that came from people that tried the

Speaker 1: Thank you very much for for being a part of it,

21
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,039
Speaker 1: which is great. There's plenty to get to over the

22
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:19,399
Speaker 1: course of this edition of Fantasy Football Weekly. Will start

23
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,040
Speaker 1: the show by telling you the one thing you need

24
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 1: to know about every team's off season. We will then

25
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,399
Speaker 1: give you the training camp battles that we are watching

26
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:31,480
Speaker 1: throughout training camp. We're into training camps now, but here

27
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:35,560
Speaker 1: are the battles that are particular note to fantasy owners.

28
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 1: Then we'll look at the Dynasty and Empire rookie drafts,

29
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 1: will go through the average draft position for the first

30
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:43,560
Speaker 1: two rounds, and we'll tell you if people are taking

31
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 1: these players too early, too late, or at just about

32
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,680
Speaker 1: the right time. We'll also answer three tough questions. We'll

33
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 1: get to all of our sleepers, and we'll give you

34
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:54,480
Speaker 1: some ideas about what to do with that extra week

35
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 1: that's on your schedule now that the NFL has employed

36
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 1: the seventeen week see reason. So plenty of good stuff

37
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 1: to get to. Let's begin by going through the one

38
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,359
Speaker 1: thing you need to know about every team's off season. Now.

39
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 1: The way I've asked my co host Scott and Matt

40
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,360
Speaker 1: to handle this is not the most obvious thing, not

41
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 1: necessarily the biggest thing, Like Aaron Rodgers is now in camp.

42
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 1: That's not everybody knows that what we want to go with,

43
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,800
Speaker 1: the stuff you need, the one thing you need to

44
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 1: know about each team. We begin with Scott and the

45
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers. Yeah, I'm not going to keep it to

46
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 1: one because I'm terrible at this and I don't bother. Uh.

47
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 1: Donald is looking great, but Terrace Marshall is just ripping

48
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:44,240
Speaker 1: up camp. And there's a great, great connection with Dan

49
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 1: Arnold in camp right now that the Beat writers keep

50
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:50,919
Speaker 1: talking those two receivers, keep an eye for him lately,

51
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,639
Speaker 1: late late in your draft. All right, Matt. The Las

52
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:57,080
Speaker 1: Vegas Raiders offensive line went through a massive overhaul, and

53
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 1: not necessarily for the better. The Raiders let three starters

54
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:05,080
Speaker 1: go this offseason. They'll have an unproven center, likely Andre James,

55
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 1: who had a Pro Football Focus grade of twenty four,

56
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:12,400
Speaker 1: replacing Rodney Hudson who was a seventy three UH, and

57
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 1: then first round pick Alex Leatherwood, Richie Incognito who was

58
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 1: injured most of the last year, and Denzel Good who

59
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,840
Speaker 1: should be named Denzel slightly below average after his rank

60
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,359
Speaker 1: of fifty nine among eighty four guards last year. It's

61
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 1: gonna be a offensive line that's in flux all year

62
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 1: and it's going to be bad for the Raiders. And

63
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,399
Speaker 1: usually when you're when you turn over the offensive line

64
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 1: to that degree, it takes half a season before they

65
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 1: start to gell for the Packers. Often fantasy analysts will

66
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:43,839
Speaker 1: talk about vacated targets, and it's almost always within the

67
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 1: purview of wide receivers and tight ends. But I want

68
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 1: to talk about Jamal Williams, who leaves behind forty targets

69
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 1: thirty receptions in two forty receiving yards last year, and

70
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 1: now with Jamal Williams gone from Green Bay, where those

71
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 1: targets going well, A J. Dillon does and catch have

72
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 1: three targets all of last year. Almost all of that

73
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 1: work probably goes to Aaron Jones, who could vault his

74
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 1: receiving numbers from the forty receptions into like the sixties

75
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 1: or seventies receptions, at which point he turns into Christian McCaffrey.

76
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 1: Let's go to the Washington football team. He just easily

77
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 1: turns into McCaffrey. I'm Christian McCaffrey. Supposedly, Ryan Fitzpatrick and

78
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 1: Taylor Heineker are in a true battle for that starter job.

79
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,800
Speaker 1: They did pay fits a ton of money, so I

80
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 1: think he'll start out, but Fits he's he's gonna have

81
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:36,160
Speaker 1: someone possibly coming in form later, sooner than later. One

82
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:38,919
Speaker 1: the frequent frustrations with Fits is that he's not a

83
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,720
Speaker 1: great practice quarterback. He's a game day quarterback. The other

84
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 1: thing is when he's given the reins, that's when he falters.

85
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:49,480
Speaker 1: It's when he comes in. Is when you're right, Buffalo Bills,

86
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 1: what's the one thing people need to know about the

87
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 1: team's offseason? People are overlooking Zack Moss and he's ready

88
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 1: to be the bell cow there and only eight fully

89
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 1: healthy games last year where he wasn't on the injury report.

90
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 1: Four point six yards per touch and five touchdowns uh

91
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 1: and he was tied with Josh Allen in rushing attempts

92
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 1: from the infrared zone inside the ten with fifteen. He

93
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 1: was also Pro Football Focus his highest graded pass blocker

94
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,160
Speaker 1: amongst running backs last year, with an Elite eighty nine

95
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 1: point nine grade compared to Devin Singletary at forty five.

96
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 1: Moss has a chance to be a three down back

97
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,560
Speaker 1: this year. I love it. And he's going so late.

98
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 1: Next to Houston Texans. With the loss of Will Fuller

99
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 1: and Randall Cobb, the Texans have one three vacated targets

100
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,839
Speaker 1: to account for. Brandon Cooks got a hundred nineteen targets

101
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 1: last year, so you can maybe get a few more,

102
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:38,799
Speaker 1: but not a lot. I think it's really worth watching

103
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:44,839
Speaker 1: the other position battles at wide receiver rookie Nico Collins,

104
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 1: as as is being described as having one of the

105
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 1: best camps of any rookie. He's going off the board

106
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:54,359
Speaker 1: as wide receiver one hundred sixty eight Nico Collins. He

107
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 1: might be a week one starter for a team that's

108
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,159
Speaker 1: gonna be perpetually behind. He's a week one starter. Kick

109
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 1: Cute's going off the board at wide receiver two D two.

110
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 1: I don't even know there's no league that drafts two

111
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,799
Speaker 1: wide receivers. So those are guys that you could watch

112
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 1: get late and we'll have the advantage of picking up

113
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 1: some of those vacated targets. Let's go to the Tampa

114
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:20,159
Speaker 1: Bay Buccaneers. Yeah, so, I think the big one here

115
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 1: is not only was Joe Bernard recruited by Tom Brady,

116
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,120
Speaker 1: but apparently he's getting up to speed in camp and

117
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 1: they really like what they're seeing. Making an even bigger

118
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 1: mess out of that running back situation. And possibly one

119
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,520
Speaker 1: to avoid or grab the cheapest. I'm a Ronald Jones guy.

120
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 1: Let's go to the Cleveland Browns. Matt Cleveland's tight ends

121
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 1: were targeted on thirty percent of Baker Mayfield's throws last season,

122
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 1: which was good for third highest share in the league.

123
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:48,040
Speaker 1: And Austin Hooper is currently going off the board is

124
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 1: tight end twenty three, which is the last round in

125
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 1: your draft. He was also targeted forty times in the

126
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 1: Brown's final five games with the two playoff games included,

127
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 1: and had three touchdown catches in the span. Also, the

128
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:04,600
Speaker 1: Browns have Pro Football focus, is highest rated old line,

129
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:06,920
Speaker 1: so Hooper is not expected to stay in and block

130
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 1: as much. I kind of like Hooper is a deep

131
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 1: sleeper this year. All right, we'll go to the Indianapolis Colts.

132
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 1: You guys already know the big story. Carson Wentz and

133
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 1: Quentin Nelson are both have had foot surgery. Expected to

134
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 1: miss a fair amount of time. Quentin Nelson, I think

135
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 1: it's September. Carson Wentz probably October, just based on the mobility.

136
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 1: They need to play their positions. Jacob Eson is the

137
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:31,760
Speaker 1: expected starter. Let's go to the Detroit Lions. So Hockinson

138
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 1: has been the best playing camp. I don't know if

139
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 1: a lot of people have been hearing that, but the

140
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 1: big news, the big news has been Campbell and Lynn

141
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 1: have consistently commented multiple times this offseason and during cramp

142
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 1: camp that Swift and Williams will be a one two

143
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 1: punch and share and they've even made the dreaded hot hand.

144
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 1: So be aware of that. That is something to be

145
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 1: aware of. Let's go to the New York Jets, completely

146
00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 1: new offense, new offensive coordinator, Mike Lafleur, Matt's brother, Zack Wilson,

147
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 1: Michael Carter, Elijah More, Corey Davis, Elijah vera Tucker at guard.

148
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:08,239
Speaker 1: But I wanted to mention Elijah Moore for a minute.

149
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:11,320
Speaker 1: He was the thirty fourth overall pick. Jets beat writers

150
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:15,040
Speaker 1: are going bonkers over him. The athletics Connor Hughes says

151
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 1: he's the jets best player, not wide receiver player. On

152
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 1: one targets at Old Miss last year, he was charged

153
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 1: with only two drops and he has a list on

154
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 1: his bathroom mirror of all the wide receivers drafted ahead

155
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 1: of him and he looks at it every day. I

156
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 1: kind of like that Old Marie Jones jew thing right,

157
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,080
Speaker 1: he did that too, something similar maybe I know, you

158
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,439
Speaker 1: know Randy Moss, you know, like remembered every team that

159
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 1: passed on him in the draft. I remember that in

160
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,760
Speaker 1: Kansas City. Last time we saw the Chiefs, Patrick Mahomes

161
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 1: is getting bulldozed in the Super Bowl. So wisely they

162
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 1: overhauled their offensive line. They released long time tackles Eric

163
00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 1: Fisher and Mitchell Schwartz. The Chiefs traded for Ravens starting

164
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 1: tackle Orlando Brown, and Brown has gotten better every year.

165
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,319
Speaker 1: He's a very good pass blocker in particular. The other

166
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 1: big move was signing left guard Joe Thuney and free agency.

167
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 1: He's developed into one of the NFL's best guards. And

168
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 1: then the right guard. They actually have a battle there

169
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:17,960
Speaker 1: between doctor Laurent duvern A tard If, the guy who

170
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:22,320
Speaker 1: opted out to work is a frontline healthcare worker last year,

171
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:26,320
Speaker 1: and the unretired Kyle Long. So you know that's real

172
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:31,080
Speaker 1: significant improvement. Yeah, you know, it's it's it's it was

173
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,200
Speaker 1: a brilliant offseason. And I think, by the way, they

174
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 1: also changed the upgrade of their centered Austin Blight from

175
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,880
Speaker 1: the Ramps. So Chiefs are in a great spot this year.

176
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 1: Let's go to the Seattle Seahawks. Yeah, I'm gonna go

177
00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:43,079
Speaker 1: a little deeper here, something that's not talked about as much,

178
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 1: but the Seahawks want to run a whole lot more

179
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 1: they want this year for some reason. And d J.

180
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 1: Dallas has been getting all the third down passing role

181
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:53,680
Speaker 1: work and they talked about him as being the change

182
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 1: of base, come in on third ground, third down for

183
00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:58,840
Speaker 1: Carson guy. If that's true late in drafts, he might

184
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 1: be a value for those guys people if you miss on,

185
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:02,839
Speaker 1: you know, starting running backs. All right, let's go to

186
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 1: the Denver Broncos. The one thing people need to know

187
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 1: from the off season. We'll talk about the quarterback controversy later,

188
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,439
Speaker 1: but George Payton is building the Broncos in a Mike

189
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 1: Zimmer fashion, beefing up the secondary and also drafting the

190
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,320
Speaker 1: air apparent in the second round at running back in

191
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:21,120
Speaker 1: Javonte Williams. With Drew Lock ranking first in NFL interceptions

192
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 1: and thirty fet and catchable pass rates, and Teddy Bridgewater

193
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 1: not seen as a downfield threat, this team sets up

194
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 1: to run at a top five clip with Williams and

195
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:35,079
Speaker 1: Melvin Gordon. I've got the rams. You know the story

196
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 1: on cam Akers already out for the year. Let's talk

197
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 1: about Darryl Henderson, the third round pick from who lost

198
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 1: his job to Acres last year. Head coach Sean McVeigh

199
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 1: says that Henderson's in every down back, but also notes

200
00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 1: that durability is a concern. Last year, in his nine

201
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:55,720
Speaker 1: games with at least twenty five snaps, Henderson averaged fifty

202
00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 1: four rushing yards fourteen receiving yards in four and half

203
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,640
Speaker 1: yards per carry, which is kind of like right in

204
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:04,040
Speaker 1: the right in the middle. Worrisome to me, though, Henderson

205
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,719
Speaker 1: was notably worse than lee average and positive run rate,

206
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 1: worse in yards after contact, worse in catch rate. He's

207
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:16,079
Speaker 1: now going roughly the fourth round for Darryl Henderson. There's

208
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,079
Speaker 1: if he's he needs to be a materially better back

209
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 1: than the guy that we saw last year. Let's go

210
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:25,319
Speaker 1: to the Philadelphia Eagles. Scott Yes, So Philadelphia Eagles. Jalen

211
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 1: Reagors just getting healthiest. Devanta Smith injures his m c

212
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 1: L and will miss a few weeks, but he should

213
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:33,640
Speaker 1: be ready for this season. But I think the bigger

214
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 1: news is the offense. They're They're catering the offense to

215
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,560
Speaker 1: Earth's that's the plan. That's what they're installing. An offense

216
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:42,560
Speaker 1: that with Kata cat to hurts skills. Um, so I'm

217
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:44,079
Speaker 1: starting to like him a lot more if they're not

218
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 1: gonna try to shoehorn and an old offense in there.

219
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:48,800
Speaker 1: Let's go to the Miami Dolphins. What's the one thing

220
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:52,840
Speaker 1: people need to know from their off season? The Miami Dolphins.

221
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 1: Chan Gailey is gone and co offensive coordinators Eric Stoodsville

222
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 1: and George Godzi spent the entire off season developing an

223
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 1: offense around Tua and at Bama, Ta had the top

224
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:08,480
Speaker 1: pass rating in the country in nineteen on throws between

225
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 1: one and nineteen yards, relying heavily on yak that's yards

226
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 1: after catch. They brought in Will Fuller and his five

227
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:19,920
Speaker 1: point five YAK and drafted noted yakker Jalen Waddle leads

228
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:21,559
Speaker 1: me to believe it's going to be a short, pass

229
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 1: heavy offense for the Dolphins this year. In Minnesota, they

230
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:26,960
Speaker 1: spent first and third round picks on their offensive line

231
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 1: in an effort to improve one of the league's worst lines.

232
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 1: But Christian Derris Saw and why Davis Bose both missed

233
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 1: the entire off season program, and they've been in and

234
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:40,680
Speaker 1: out of the lineups in training camp as well. Fantasy

235
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:42,959
Speaker 1: owners need to be prepared for the prospect of a

236
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 1: Vikings offensive line that could even be worse than last year's,

237
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:50,720
Speaker 1: particularly early on in the season. Let's go to the

238
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,800
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys. What's the one thing Scott that people need

239
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:57,320
Speaker 1: to know? So, uh, we've all seen to the wide

240
00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 1: receivers are doing a ton in practice. That's that's great now,

241
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:03,040
Speaker 1: but the plan is to be more conservative with Dac.

242
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 1: Apparently he's he's got a slight injury right now, possibly

243
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 1: running less, so maybe those six touchdowns rushing are are

244
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,839
Speaker 1: going to be gone this season. And they've they're also

245
00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 1: talking about lightning Zeke's roll throughout the season with the

246
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 1: playoffs in mind, and I think that's a very important

247
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 1: thing to know. Let's go to the New England Patriots, Matt.

248
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 1: They're the most run heavy team in the league last

249
00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:25,240
Speaker 1: nger Cam Newton and Bill Belichick does not want you

250
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:27,080
Speaker 1: to believe that was going to happen again this year.

251
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,160
Speaker 1: They added John U, JOHNU Hunter, Henry Nelson Aglar, and

252
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:32,680
Speaker 1: Kendrick Born in free agency and did You know that

253
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 1: Kendrick Borne, as the nondescript fourth wide receiver in San Francisco,

254
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 1: would have tied for the team lead in red zone

255
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 1: targets with ten, and John Wu had seventeen and Hunter

256
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,960
Speaker 1: Henry had fourteen and Cam only through thirty six passes

257
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,839
Speaker 1: inside the twenty last year. They're going to throw more

258
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,319
Speaker 1: inside the red zone. Whether or not it's Cam is

259
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,319
Speaker 1: yet to be seen. Though. I'm warming up to John

260
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 1: U Johnu again, and you guys are gonna get sick

261
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,560
Speaker 1: of about me here hearing about me talk about him

262
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 1: this preseason as well. There's very long track history of

263
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:03,840
Speaker 1: you know, top five tight ends being the number one

264
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,360
Speaker 1: or number two options on their team. John is almost

265
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,199
Speaker 1: guaranteed to be that on his team. I think he

266
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 1: I think he is. Let's go to the Saints there

267
00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:12,600
Speaker 1: in the middle of a quarterback battle between Taysom Hill

268
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:15,520
Speaker 1: and Jamis Winston. Sean Payton had previously said that both

269
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:17,719
Speaker 1: quarterbacks will get time with the first team. Um, and

270
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:20,040
Speaker 1: they are doing that, but there's no early indication who's

271
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 1: gonna win this job. But fantasy owners should be rooting

272
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 1: for Jameis Winston here. He's had keep in mind we

273
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:29,280
Speaker 1: are one year removed from him being QB one in

274
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:33,040
Speaker 1: many scoring systems, when in his mythical thirty thirty year,

275
00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 1: when if you really get out some track for interceptions,

276
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 1: Jameis Winston was probably the top scoring quarterback in twenty nineteen.

277
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,480
Speaker 1: Where we're less than a year removed from taste Hill

278
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 1: having a bunch of QB one games in relief last

279
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,200
Speaker 1: its true look's the one thing people need to know

280
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 1: from the Giants. So I'm most people I'm sure know

281
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:54,720
Speaker 1: about Si Kwon Barkley. They're taking it easy. There's been

282
00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 1: reports that he might not they might ease him back

283
00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 1: so slow we might not see him till we three.

284
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 1: That's not what I want to mention here. What I

285
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:02,760
Speaker 1: want to mention here, Okay, let's see how I go

286
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:07,080
Speaker 1: to It's like the eight plus is Sterling Shepherd has

287
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 1: been the stand up at camp and a lot of

288
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:11,520
Speaker 1: people wonder who's that receiver that you should have after Golliday,

289
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 1: it seems like it's it's Shepherd. It's not. It's not

290
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 1: any of the other options. I don't have his a

291
00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 1: DP in front of me, but man, it's he's going

292
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:22,200
Speaker 1: like round Sterling Shepherd. You'll be able to get him

293
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,400
Speaker 1: very late and Kenny Golladay may not even start the season.

294
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:29,360
Speaker 1: What's the one thing people need to know from the Texans? Titans? Titans?

295
00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:31,960
Speaker 1: Thank you? There we go. According to Warren Sharp, the

296
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 1: Titans ran the ball only four percent of the time

297
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 1: last year when trailing, four percent compared to the average

298
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 1: of thirty five. Okay. And their defense is bad and

299
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:47,360
Speaker 1: it's still bad ranking and defensive efficiency by Pro Football

300
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,960
Speaker 1: Focus and expected points allowed per play. And they cut

301
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 1: both starting corners, but dupri was their big ad in

302
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 1: free agency. This tells me this defense is going to

303
00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 1: be bad, and this offense is going to throw all

304
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:03,280
Speaker 1: year to Julio and a j. Brown. That could end

305
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,480
Speaker 1: up happening every A lot of people really like Tannehill

306
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 1: this year in Pittsburgh. The offensive line is ranked twenty

307
00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 1: nine by Pro Football Focus and the team barely addressed

308
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:13,920
Speaker 1: it in the off season. It's got four new starters

309
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 1: and one returning starter who's playing out a position. Last year,

310
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 1: Ben Roethlisberger had the shortest time to throw of all

311
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 1: quarterbacks in the league, two point three seconds. That's it.

312
00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:28,560
Speaker 1: And I don't know how your te how your offense

313
00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 1: can get that much better when your lines this bad.

314
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 1: A lot of concern over the offensive line that did

315
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 1: not get addressed adequately by the Steelers in the off season.

316
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 1: Let's go to the Atlanta Falcon Scott. Yeah, so I'm

317
00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 1: gonna go to the running back position here where Mike

318
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 1: Davis is the starter. But do we know that he

319
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 1: can be the full role? So who's who's the second back? There?

320
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:53,360
Speaker 1: They have court Darryl Patterson listed as running back and

321
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 1: he's getting the reps in front of Quadria Allison whose

322
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 1: career longest run is six yards, and a very small

323
00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,480
Speaker 1: rookie and Javian Hawkins. We might see a world where

324
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 1: Cordarrell Patterson is it running back in fantasy this year?

325
00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:11,480
Speaker 1: I can fall forward for six yards? Well yeah, I

326
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,159
Speaker 1: mean two of you could. Let's go to the Cincinnati Bengals.

327
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 1: What's the one thing people need to know? Red alert

328
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,879
Speaker 1: the athletics since Beat writers Jay Morrison and Paul Dana

329
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:25,440
Speaker 1: reported earlier this week that the offense is an absolute disaster.

330
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,359
Speaker 1: The pass rush continue to break through the offensive line.

331
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:32,159
Speaker 1: Nearly every pass that wasn't wildly off the mark was

332
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:36,840
Speaker 1: heavily contested, broken up, or intercepted. Multiple turnovers are happening

333
00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 1: during every practice. Tyler Boyd and Tee Higgins are losing

334
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:43,640
Speaker 1: battles with Eli Apple, Jamaar Chase is dropping wide open passes,

335
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:46,879
Speaker 1: and the Bengals have a bad defense. So this isn't

336
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 1: like a great defense they're going against. It's bad. And

337
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:53,440
Speaker 1: since right now, let's hope it changes because Burrow is

338
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:55,840
Speaker 1: going to be running if that offensive line can't protect him.

339
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 1: So all the Jamar Chase one handed highlights, they're they're

340
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 1: they're glossy over the bad stuff that's going on in

341
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:04,760
Speaker 1: San Francisco. I'm tempted to talk about the quarterback situation,

342
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 1: but everybody's tracking it really closely, and I think you

343
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:09,359
Speaker 1: know that and we might talk about it. Next segment

344
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:11,920
Speaker 1: was drafted right. You know it's gonna come up again soon,

345
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,480
Speaker 1: but let me mention it's The Niners offensive line got

346
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 1: two key boosts in the off season. They re signed

347
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:20,320
Speaker 1: left tackle Trent Williams and then they acquired veterans center

348
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 1: Alex Mack. Trent Williams was the number one ranked tackle

349
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:27,480
Speaker 1: last year. Alex mac is a steady veteran line gets

350
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:30,280
Speaker 1: even better in the off season. Scott, what's the one

351
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,399
Speaker 1: thing people need to know about the Cardinals. A j

352
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 1: Green has been lights out in camp, leading many to

353
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:39,760
Speaker 1: speculate the last year's issues were lack of effort and

354
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:43,080
Speaker 1: not wanting to be there anymore rather than being washed.

355
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:46,399
Speaker 1: Uh insert Kaiser so say straightening his leg out me

356
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:52,040
Speaker 1: as he walks to Arizona. Uh, let's go to Jacksonville, Matt.

357
00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 1: The Jags ranked thirty second in the league and rushing

358
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:57,399
Speaker 1: attempts last year. And you insert Urban Meyer and Darryl

359
00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:02,639
Speaker 1: Bevil and Travis En. That's how he pronounced it. Okay, alright,

360
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 1: yeah he would know. Yeah. According to Pro Football Focus

361
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 1: in and twenty while with the Lions, Bevel ranked eleventh

362
00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:12,479
Speaker 1: in the NFL among offensive coordinators in neutral game script

363
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,879
Speaker 1: run play rate. The Lions also ran the ball at

364
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:18,080
Speaker 1: the eleventh highest clip from inside the five, and Urban

365
00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:20,960
Speaker 1: Meyers a long track record of using quarterbacks to run

366
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:23,520
Speaker 1: the ball from inside the five yard line. In Baltimore,

367
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:25,439
Speaker 1: there's a lot of flux at the wide receiver position.

368
00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:28,240
Speaker 1: The team drafted Rishadde Bateman, who has looked very good

369
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:31,240
Speaker 1: so our in training camp. Baltimore brought in Sammy Watkins,

370
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:36,879
Speaker 1: a perpetual career long underperformer, Watkins and Bateman likely battle

371
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,160
Speaker 1: for a starting spot. Marcus Brown has got a significant

372
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:41,320
Speaker 1: hamstring injury. You need to watch. He may not be

373
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:43,719
Speaker 1: available for the start of the season and or and

374
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,439
Speaker 1: or may miss a bunch of time. And Miles Boykin

375
00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:49,960
Speaker 1: might be cut allgether, which is a bumber. He was

376
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:51,840
Speaker 1: one of my one of my deep sleepers at this

377
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:55,199
Speaker 1: time last year. Hoops, all right, two teams, What is

378
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 1: the one thing people need to know about the Chicago Bears.

379
00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,880
Speaker 1: Damian Williams is impressing as a rece ever, while tree

380
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:04,680
Speaker 1: Cone is still out, He's got that number two running

381
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,080
Speaker 1: back role between the tackles locked up. Now it looks

382
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:09,200
Speaker 1: like he might get some passing work. I just drafted

383
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:13,680
Speaker 1: him in mattch Empire League. And finally the Chargers, Oh,

384
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 1: it's passing time because new offensive coordinator Joel Lombardi loves

385
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,520
Speaker 1: the pass. The Chargers already led the NFL in plays

386
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 1: per game last season, and in Lombardi's short tenure as

387
00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,080
Speaker 1: the Lions o C, he had them passed the ball

388
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:29,920
Speaker 1: in sixty percent of plays. At that clip. Justin air,

389
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 1: Bear would be throwing forty six passes per game and

390
00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:38,520
Speaker 1: would be on pace for five thousand, seven twenty yards

391
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,640
Speaker 1: and forty one touchdowns in a seventeen game year. It's

392
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:47,320
Speaker 1: air Bear time, Bear time. You can you can draft

393
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:49,320
Speaker 1: him in a Guillotine League if you like. Learn more

396
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:59,359
Speaker 1: the training camp battles will be watching throughout the month

397
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:21,760
Speaker 1: of aug When we returned to Fantasy Football Weekly, Welcome

398
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 1: back Fantasy Football Weekly on Paul Giarchi and Guillotine leagues

399
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:29,240
Speaker 1: dot com. Like co hosts are Matt Harrison and Scott fish,

400
00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:30,800
Speaker 1: I have challenged both of you to come up with

401
00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:34,680
Speaker 1: the training camp battles that we need to follow. Let's

402
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:38,159
Speaker 1: begin with you, Scott, what's the first one? Let me

403
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:41,920
Speaker 1: turn on my mic here. Uh. Gabriel Davis a sleeper

404
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,320
Speaker 1: that we were a guy we liked last year, a

405
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 1: guy we liked coming into this year. But unfortunately he's

406
00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:49,800
Speaker 1: battling with Manny Sanders, who they picked up the Buffalo

407
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:52,520
Speaker 1: Bills picked up this offseason, and it seems like Manuel

408
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 1: Sanders has beaten him out for the job almost already.

409
00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:57,680
Speaker 1: They're still battling it out, but he's above him on

410
00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:59,560
Speaker 1: the depth chart and getting more with looks with the ones.

411
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:01,679
Speaker 1: We'll see how that plays out, but it's not the

412
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:05,160
Speaker 1: outcome most of us. Well, you know we're going for game.

413
00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:07,640
Speaker 1: We are for sure, Matt. What is the training camp

414
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:11,440
Speaker 1: battle you're following next? Uh? Andy Dalton versus Justin Fields

415
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:16,040
Speaker 1: versus Nick FLEs Um. It's worth noting that Andy Dalton

416
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:19,560
Speaker 1: is sporting a sweet new red mustache and an Oakley

417
00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:23,720
Speaker 1: style orange reflective visor and the number nine and the Bears,

418
00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:26,760
Speaker 1: so he kind of looks like mustache. Jim McMahon, that's

419
00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:31,639
Speaker 1: pretty awesome. Uh. Speaking of Fields, everything out of camp

420
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:33,680
Speaker 1: is that the Bears don't want to be forced into

421
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:36,440
Speaker 1: playing him right away, and Dalton has looked steady, while

422
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:39,680
Speaker 1: Fields has impressed with his athleticism and velocity on his ball,

423
00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:42,879
Speaker 1: but he hasn't overtly taken the job from Dalton as

424
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 1: of yet. My guess is Dalton probably starts September and

425
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,800
Speaker 1: Fields is coming later in the fall. I was recently

426
00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:51,400
Speaker 1: in Chicago on the score six seventy my friends there

427
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,359
Speaker 1: and they I asked the two co hosts I was with,

428
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,480
Speaker 1: when what's the weak number in which the transfer happens

429
00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:01,280
Speaker 1: from Dalton to Field and one hole Stanford third week

430
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 1: and one answered the fifth week. I was going week

431
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:07,880
Speaker 1: four when they play the Lions. That's easy enough, soft matchup.

432
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:11,040
Speaker 1: I like bringing in bringing in the rookie at that time. Alright,

433
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:13,680
Speaker 1: let's go to our next training camp battle. Scott, Jacob

434
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:17,800
Speaker 1: Eason and Sam Ellinger for the Colts. The it's Easton's

435
00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,159
Speaker 1: job right now, that is what Frank Craig says. But

436
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 1: they're gonna fall. They're they're gonna battle it out. But

437
00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:27,800
Speaker 1: this first preseason game, Easton's gonna get the first half,

438
00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:30,080
Speaker 1: Ellener is gonna get the second half. Easton's the big

439
00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:32,960
Speaker 1: arm guy, but Sam is the dual threat guy, and

440
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:35,800
Speaker 1: there's something there that he might he they might want

441
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 1: to go to him because he's looked good in camp

442
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 1: and Easton hasn't. By the way, no relation to Tony Easton.

443
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:42,520
Speaker 1: I looked it up because I thought there might be.

444
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:47,400
Speaker 1: They're not. There's no connection. Everybody was thinking about, well, yeah,

445
00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 1: who doesn't want to tap into the Tony Easton pedigree line?

446
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:52,480
Speaker 1: Everybody does. Matt, what's the next training camp battle? We're

447
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:54,440
Speaker 1: following you touched on a little bit chart and it's

448
00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,360
Speaker 1: Jamis Winston versus Taysom Hill, and everything that I've read

449
00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,720
Speaker 1: on this one is it's a dead heat and possibly

450
00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:02,720
Speaker 1: that both play in Week one, but the camp notes

451
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 1: kind of talk about both being unimpressive and mostly working

452
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:09,760
Speaker 1: as run game coordinators. If that's the case, the Saints

453
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:12,120
Speaker 1: look like a run heavy team as they were last year.

454
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:14,520
Speaker 1: They ran the fifth most in the NFL last year.

455
00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:16,919
Speaker 1: So if that's the case, I'd put my money on

456
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:19,960
Speaker 1: Hill as the starter right now. However, Hill's just not

457
00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:22,720
Speaker 1: the passer Winston is. Making him the full time starter

458
00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,480
Speaker 1: would also take away his ability to be weapon ax

459
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:29,120
Speaker 1: out there. But right now, the tea leaves trend towards Hill.

460
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:31,640
Speaker 1: I'd put it as a fifty three forty seven kind

461
00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:33,639
Speaker 1: of lead right now. I'm rooting for Winston because I

462
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 1: don't think he'll can pass. I'm rooting for Hill because

463
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 1: I have on a lot of teams all right, and

464
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 1: you need him to start or you can never start him.

465
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:44,080
Speaker 1: If Taston Hillton start a game, you can never put

466
00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:46,159
Speaker 1: I think you're gonna be comfortable starting either of the

467
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 1: Saints quarterbacks this year. Yeah, like if, if, if Winston's

468
00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:53,119
Speaker 1: the starter. You know, Hill's coming into the game to

469
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:56,040
Speaker 1: steal some stuff and whether it's red zone or it's

470
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:58,119
Speaker 1: the middle of the field. Yeah, but I don't think

471
00:24:58,119 --> 00:24:59,879
Speaker 1: he will impact just passing that much. And that's all

472
00:24:59,880 --> 00:25:02,159
Speaker 1: I want Winston for anyway. I think Winston can be

473
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:05,360
Speaker 1: startable if if he's if he's getting almost all the work.

474
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:07,919
Speaker 1: To me, I think if Hill wins the job, I

475
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:10,920
Speaker 1: think that we have a clear cut path of who's

476
00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:13,520
Speaker 1: the starter and who's gonna play the most snaps, Scott,

477
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,600
Speaker 1: what's the next training camp battle we're following? Uh, Drew

478
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:20,000
Speaker 1: Lock and Teddy Bridgewater over there in Denver. Right now,

479
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,159
Speaker 1: it sounds like the slight edges to Lock. But Teddy

480
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:29,399
Speaker 1: has been unleashing some fifteen plus yard downfield and making

481
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 1: them look good. Drew Lock, after a bad first day,

482
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,800
Speaker 1: went four or five straight days without an interception against

483
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:38,280
Speaker 1: that very decent defense. So that's one to watch. But

484
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 1: right now it sounds like Lock might just say the

485
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:42,840
Speaker 1: slight edge all right? Rooting for Drew Lock. Yeah, better

486
00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:44,879
Speaker 1: for fantasy. It's better for fantasy. It's this is a

487
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:47,360
Speaker 1: fantasy show. That's why we care about that. Matt, What's

488
00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:50,880
Speaker 1: the next training Campattle, we're following forty quarterbacks Jimmy Gee

489
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:55,919
Speaker 1: versus Tray Lance, and everyone in forty Niners camp is

490
00:25:56,160 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 1: fawning over Tray Lance. His athleticism and running ability have

491
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:04,680
Speaker 1: all the Niners beat writers drooling. They've said they've unleashed

492
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:07,679
Speaker 1: him as a runner and scrimmages and while the crowd's there,

493
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:09,399
Speaker 1: and it's kind of like when the Beatles came to

494
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:13,399
Speaker 1: America for the first Very similar, very similar. However, Kyle

495
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 1: Shanahan has been quoted multiple times that it's Jimmy G's

496
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:19,480
Speaker 1: team and would be extremely hard for Lance to beat

497
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,399
Speaker 1: out Garoppolo for the job by week one. Shanahan has

498
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:24,880
Speaker 1: also said that Jimmy G has been really good in practice,

499
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,840
Speaker 1: although his mobility is just not what it used to

500
00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:31,159
Speaker 1: be after ankle injuries plagued season and an a c L.

501
00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:35,520
Speaker 1: It's only a matter of time and it's coming. It

502
00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:38,000
Speaker 1: seems like it's coming sooner than later. For Trey Lance,

503
00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,919
Speaker 1: I'm fully on board. The most interesting fact about the

504
00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:43,760
Speaker 1: Fourners is they've installed spit tunes along the sidelines for

505
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 1: the beat reporters. For they are they drool tunes all right?

506
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:54,960
Speaker 1: Scott what's an next training camp battle? Let's stay in

507
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:59,240
Speaker 1: Denver with Javonte Williams and Melvin Gordon. Beat reporters and

508
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:02,880
Speaker 1: UH people close to the team have consistently said it's

509
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:05,720
Speaker 1: Melvin's job, even though a lot of fantasy people think

510
00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:07,960
Speaker 1: Javant is going to take it over, and he might

511
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,960
Speaker 1: at some point. They've said, Javonte looks great, he looks

512
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,720
Speaker 1: great with hel pads, he looks great with pads. But

513
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,440
Speaker 1: at this point, it's Melvin's job. But there there's a battle.

514
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:18,480
Speaker 1: I mean, we don't want to hear that. No, we

515
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:21,040
Speaker 1: always want the new guy. We always want the fresh blood.

516
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:25,560
Speaker 1: But I think if it's like most situations, the veterans

517
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,159
Speaker 1: starts the season get most of the work. You know,

518
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:30,200
Speaker 1: That's how it goes. All right, Matt, what's the next

519
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 1: training camp battle we're following? I got the Arizona Cardinals

520
00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:37,280
Speaker 1: were running back competition. That's Chase Edmonds versus James Conner.

521
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:41,479
Speaker 1: Edmonds had at snap rate last year. Kenyan Drake had

522
00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:47,360
Speaker 1: about that seems like a split backfield to me, and Edmonds,

523
00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:50,240
Speaker 1: when asked about being an RB one this year, said

524
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 1: and I quote, we're both going to play a lot

525
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,320
Speaker 1: this year, we're both going to make plays. So RB

526
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,760
Speaker 1: one really don't mean much. Means a lot to be ah, yeah,

527
00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:00,760
Speaker 1: it means a lot to fancy player. What's interesting is

528
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:03,520
Speaker 1: Edmonds has a bit more versatility. They lined him up

529
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:12,199
Speaker 1: in the slot exactly nine nine times. There we go.

530
00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:15,320
Speaker 1: That's something that James Conner really doesn't do at the

531
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 1: very best. You're looking at a sixty forty split for

532
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:21,400
Speaker 1: one of these backs due to injury concerns for Connor,

533
00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 1: that favors Edmonds. But even in games where Kenyan Drake

534
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:27,119
Speaker 1: was absent last year, Edmonds did very little with the

535
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:31,080
Speaker 1: op It was very disappointing. All right, let's get to

536
00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:34,280
Speaker 1: our next training camp battle Scott. Okay, So the last

537
00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:37,560
Speaker 1: one or the next one I have is the Chargers

538
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:42,040
Speaker 1: receivers with Josh Palmer, Tyrand Johnson, and Jalen Guyton. Right now,

539
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,640
Speaker 1: this depth chart might surprise you. The order listed now

540
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:49,360
Speaker 1: from coming out of the camp, Josh Palmer ahead of

541
00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:52,760
Speaker 1: Ron Johnson and Jalen Guyton, all three of made great

542
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,880
Speaker 1: plays in camp. Williams is also, they say, is connection

543
00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:58,320
Speaker 1: is amazing with her about this camp. But right now

544
00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:00,360
Speaker 1: it sounds like Palmer's running slightly a head of them,

545
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 1: despite they're all making great plays, all right, that offense

546
00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:06,160
Speaker 1: might go crazy, all right. When we come back, we

547
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 1: will work through a Dynasty or Empire rookie draft by

548
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:14,560
Speaker 1: a DP. Here's who you all America are taking first, second, third, fourth,

549
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:16,680
Speaker 1: all the way through the first round, and we'll tell

550
00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:19,120
Speaker 1: you if you're getting it right or wrong, who's going

551
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 1: in the right place, who's not. Who should you be

552
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,840
Speaker 1: reaching for in your Dynasty or Empire rookie draft. When

553
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 1: we return to Fantasy Football Weekly, Welcome back Fantasy Football Weekly.

554
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 1: I'm pulled charching. My co hosts are Matt Harrison and

555
00:29:56,120 --> 00:30:00,280
Speaker 1: Scott Fish getting you ready for draft season. I'm already

556
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:02,040
Speaker 1: drafting in a bunch of leagues. I know you guys

557
00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 1: are too, and but for most people, they're just they

558
00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:06,760
Speaker 1: know they're starting to warm up to it now start

559
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:08,800
Speaker 1: to think about their draft. It's gonna happen like two weeks,

560
00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:11,160
Speaker 1: three weeks that charts. We had a rookie draft going on.

561
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:14,680
Speaker 1: This week we did It's it gets real thin this year,

562
00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:18,239
Speaker 1: real thin, really fast. You're gonna hear about how thin

563
00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:21,840
Speaker 1: it gets really next segment. The next two segments this

564
00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:24,560
Speaker 1: segment is gonna be filled with guys who were really interested.

565
00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:27,640
Speaker 1: In the next two segments, we're gonna go through the

566
00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:31,640
Speaker 1: rookie drafts by average draft position for those in dynasty leagues,

567
00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 1: Keeper leagues, Empire leagues, and we'll identify who's going in

568
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:36,880
Speaker 1: what position, and then whether or not that player is

569
00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:39,720
Speaker 1: going too high, too low, or about right. We'll do

570
00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:41,760
Speaker 1: the first round of this segment, we'll do the second

571
00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:44,040
Speaker 1: round next segment, and man, it just falls off a

572
00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:47,600
Speaker 1: cliff at one point in round two, and we'll talk

573
00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:50,200
Speaker 1: about that when we get there. So first let me

574
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:52,520
Speaker 1: mention this. This is we are doing a one quarterback league,

575
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:54,240
Speaker 1: so we are not doing super flax or not doing

576
00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:57,120
Speaker 1: two quarterback because in those leagues it's moves the quarterbacks

577
00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 1: just right to the top. And here this we're assuming

578
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:01,760
Speaker 1: you're an one quarterback league, which is still the way

579
00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:04,600
Speaker 1: most people play. We like super flex, but play the

580
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:06,880
Speaker 1: way you want to play, right, We don't leave the

581
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:11,480
Speaker 1: average draft position at number one is Naji Harris, Pittsburgh

582
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:14,720
Speaker 1: running back Naji Harris. Is that too high, too low,

583
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,320
Speaker 1: or about right? That's where I got him on my

584
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:21,440
Speaker 1: dynasty ranks at shock Fantasy. So you know, Promo Code

585
00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:23,040
Speaker 1: Radio if you want to go, be a member there.

586
00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:25,320
Speaker 1: But Naji Harris is exactly where I got him. I'm

587
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:28,880
Speaker 1: not concerned about the poor offensive line. Good running backs

588
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:32,560
Speaker 1: have overcome poor offensive lines in the past and been

589
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:35,440
Speaker 1: good fantasy producers. So Dalvin Cook's done it many years

590
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 1: in a row. Just fine with Naji right there? Okay, Uh,

591
00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:41,120
Speaker 1: offensive line worries me a little bit as well. I

592
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:43,480
Speaker 1: think there are others you can make a case for

593
00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:45,720
Speaker 1: in this spot. But do you have a problem with

594
00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:50,200
Speaker 1: it here nor? I don't. He wouldn't be my first

595
00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 1: because generally in a league where you're picking one overall,

596
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 1: unless you're traded for it, you're the worst team. And

597
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:57,640
Speaker 1: I'd rather go after running backs when I'm starting to contend,

598
00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:01,640
Speaker 1: then that's good point and grabbing a running back over

599
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:04,560
Speaker 1: one overall. So he's not my one. But um so,

600
00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:08,040
Speaker 1: I guess you can guess to high. I guess he's

601
00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,160
Speaker 1: going to high. It's still fair, but he's just at

602
00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:11,959
Speaker 1: least a couple of spots too high for me. Alright.

603
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 1: Average draft position the second rookie off the board. This

604
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:20,280
Speaker 1: is America's average draft position. Cincinnati wide receiver Jamar Chase

605
00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:22,480
Speaker 1: he was the first wide receiver taken in the draft. Scott,

606
00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:24,880
Speaker 1: is this too low? Too higher? About right? Well, based

607
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:27,280
Speaker 1: on what I just said, obviously my number one is

608
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:30,680
Speaker 1: probably Chase or the guy will talk about next. I'm

609
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 1: completely fine with him at two if you want to

610
00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:34,640
Speaker 1: take the guy we're gonna talk about next at one.

611
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:37,320
Speaker 1: But it's it's fair, it's fine, you know, it's it's

612
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,360
Speaker 1: right on the spot. I'd probably take him one. I've

613
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 1: got Chase at my number four rookie off the board,

614
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:45,560
Speaker 1: so this is too high for me. There's two guys

615
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:48,560
Speaker 1: that I would like a lot more than Mr Chase,

616
00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:51,360
Speaker 1: and there's a lot of mouse defeat in that Cincinnati offense.

617
00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:53,560
Speaker 1: You know. Running back lover, I'm kind of with you

618
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:55,680
Speaker 1: as well. I think it is a little bit too high.

619
00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:58,920
Speaker 1: And they're only in this particular year, there's only four

620
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:03,040
Speaker 1: running backs even want to draft, and so I you know,

621
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:05,040
Speaker 1: I think I would want to have gotten a running

622
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:07,760
Speaker 1: back by here. But then there's the next guy, well,

623
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 1: I think might also be a better a better player

624
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:13,960
Speaker 1: for this particular spot. The number three average draft position

625
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 1: player is Kyle Pitts, going off the board in redraft

626
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:21,440
Speaker 1: leagues at at tight end four. What do you think

627
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:24,320
Speaker 1: about Kyle Pitts going off the board at position number three, Well,

628
00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:27,880
Speaker 1: it's ridiculous for re draft leagues, number four tight end overall,

629
00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:32,040
Speaker 1: but this guy is a generational talent from all all

630
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:35,560
Speaker 1: uh all accounts. I think that you can make the

631
00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 1: case for him at number one, and he's definitely one

632
00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:41,720
Speaker 1: of my number He's probably been number two guy right now,

633
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:43,720
Speaker 1: so I think he is a little bit too low

634
00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:46,200
Speaker 1: on this list. I'd I'd take Pitts either number one

635
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:50,640
Speaker 1: or number two. Counterpoint on Pits last year wrestler Gauge

636
00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:53,680
Speaker 1: in the in the Atlanta Falcons offense, his stout line

637
00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 1: would have been tight end three overall, there we go.

638
00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,000
Speaker 1: Do you think Kyle Pitts is their third option in

639
00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:01,680
Speaker 1: the receiving game or second? It's it's probably second at

640
00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:04,200
Speaker 1: this point, So I feel like I feel like that.

641
00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:06,719
Speaker 1: I think I think he can. I'm not I'm not

642
00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:09,319
Speaker 1: saying he will, but it would take a historic year,

643
00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:11,160
Speaker 1: but I think he can end up in that spot.

644
00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:13,480
Speaker 1: So I'm saying with it, um, Kyle Pitts is who

645
00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:15,399
Speaker 1: I would have taken it one. Once again, I think

646
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:19,720
Speaker 1: if you're picking one on one legitimately taking a difference

647
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 1: changer at a position like that that could be on

648
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 1: your team six seven years and not have to worry

649
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:28,800
Speaker 1: about the tight end position for years. Um, that's probably

650
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:30,120
Speaker 1: where I would have leaned. So I'm gonna go with

651
00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:31,960
Speaker 1: too low on him. I would I I went too

652
00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:33,680
Speaker 1: low on Kyle Pitts for all the reasons that you

653
00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:36,560
Speaker 1: guys have mentioned as well. I would have taken him first. Overall.

654
00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:39,520
Speaker 1: Let's go to the fourth average draft position, and that's

655
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:44,440
Speaker 1: Jacksonville running back Travis the running back formerly known as E.

656
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:49,759
Speaker 1: T N. But now we find out it's Jacksonville running

657
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:56,560
Speaker 1: back Travis an Both. So uh Scott with the at

658
00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:59,279
Speaker 1: number four? Is this too low, too high? Or about right?

659
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:02,080
Speaker 1: This is actually where I have him? So I feel

660
00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:06,000
Speaker 1: it's just right. In fact, Um, the the amount of

661
00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:09,520
Speaker 1: top twelve fantasy running backs, like running backs that fish

662
00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:12,520
Speaker 1: in the top twelve that have like fifty plus UH

663
00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:17,760
Speaker 1: carries and fifty plus receptions, which I think uh Atchin

664
00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:20,120
Speaker 1: or E. T N is going to do many times

665
00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:23,440
Speaker 1: in the next few years. Is it's astronomical, Like that

666
00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:26,799
Speaker 1: combination vaults. It's like a rushing quarterback, that combination of

667
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:30,560
Speaker 1: catches and carries vaults you into top twelve conversations. I

668
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:32,760
Speaker 1: think that's him. He just needs to get James Robinson

669
00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:34,799
Speaker 1: out of the way a little bit. Matt, you feel

670
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:38,320
Speaker 1: any differently about Travis E. T N. Well, if Scott's

671
00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:41,239
Speaker 1: saying that he's got like all this potential, I don't

672
00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:43,160
Speaker 1: know why you wouldn't pick him higher. I pick him

673
00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:45,080
Speaker 1: higher than Jamar Chase, So I think he's a little

674
00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:47,720
Speaker 1: bit too low. I think he's the top three running

675
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 1: or top three rookie for me, I feel this is

676
00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:53,640
Speaker 1: a spot too high, one at least one spot too

677
00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:56,759
Speaker 1: high for Travish the running back formula Travis E. N.

678
00:35:57,000 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 1: And I like the guy who's at a DP five five,

679
00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 1: and that is Denver running back Javonte Williams. Matt It

680
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:08,359
Speaker 1: at position number five for Dynasty and Empire leagues. Is

681
00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:12,520
Speaker 1: Javonte Williams going too high? Too lower? About right? I

682
00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 1: think that that this is a just right position for

683
00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:17,799
Speaker 1: him personally. I think a lot of people are going

684
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:21,200
Speaker 1: to be scared off that Melvin Gordon is there, and uh,

685
00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:23,919
Speaker 1: the production might suffer a little bit in the first year,

686
00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:26,600
Speaker 1: but he's definitely a guy who can take over that role.

687
00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:28,680
Speaker 1: And and really be a bell cow, and I think

688
00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:31,800
Speaker 1: that's what George Peyton wants in his new look Broncos. Scott,

689
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:34,240
Speaker 1: do you feel differently? So? I feel like you guys

690
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:36,640
Speaker 1: very much love the running back position a lot more

691
00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:40,120
Speaker 1: than I do. In Dynasty, I generally build around younger

692
00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:43,480
Speaker 1: wide receivers and players like that, and then I go

693
00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:45,719
Speaker 1: after and get the running backs when I know him

694
00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:48,160
Speaker 1: about to make a run. That's because you're really smart.

695
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:50,920
Speaker 1: That's that's how I played Dynasty. So I actually have

696
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:54,239
Speaker 1: Javonte Williams one spot lower than this, so I will

697
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:57,640
Speaker 1: I will go. He's one spot too high. I think

698
00:36:57,640 --> 00:36:59,920
Speaker 1: this is a spot too low, but he'll make my case.

699
00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,759
Speaker 1: I think Williams could go. I think you can make

700
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:04,440
Speaker 1: a case. If you're running back needing and you are

701
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:06,040
Speaker 1: making run, you can make a case for to me,

702
00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:09,359
Speaker 1: Javonte Williams as high as pick two or three at

703
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:11,800
Speaker 1: potential to be a very special back, which only a

704
00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:14,120
Speaker 1: couple of runners do have in this In this draft,

705
00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:17,160
Speaker 1: I believe big, fast, elusive gets goal line looks. But

706
00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:19,440
Speaker 1: I'm really doing it for next year. Melvin Gordon, I

707
00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:21,880
Speaker 1: don't think he's gonna be on Denver next year. And

708
00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:24,880
Speaker 1: that is why I think Javonta Williams becomes the bell

709
00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:27,640
Speaker 1: Cow by two and I want him on my roster now.

710
00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:31,960
Speaker 1: So I'm ready for next season at average draft position

711
00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:36,040
Speaker 1: number six in Dynasty and Empire rookie drafts. Philadelphia wide

712
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:39,399
Speaker 1: receiver DeVonta Smith Scott. Is this too high, too low?

713
00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:41,840
Speaker 1: Or just right? This is the flip with Javonte Williams.

714
00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:44,920
Speaker 1: For me, this is would what Davonta Smith did in college.

715
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:47,239
Speaker 1: I I love to see it come to Philadelphia. I

716
00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:48,799
Speaker 1: think I know he's hurt right now, he's got the

717
00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:51,200
Speaker 1: m CL, but I think eventually he's gonna be that

718
00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:54,200
Speaker 1: guy uh for the Eagles there. Um, I would have

719
00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:56,759
Speaker 1: him a spot higher, Okay, Matt, Yeah, I think he's

720
00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:58,920
Speaker 1: the clear number one wide receiver in Philly, So I

721
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:02,080
Speaker 1: think he's just I think it's about right to now.

722
00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:04,759
Speaker 1: Just his small build to me as a worry, but

723
00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:07,760
Speaker 1: he can be an electric game blake breaker. My worry

724
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:12,080
Speaker 1: is he's got Tavon Austin downside to him, but he's

725
00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:15,040
Speaker 1: got Tyreek Hill upside to his game. It was an

726
00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:18,520
Speaker 1: undersized group of wide receivers this year, big time too,

727
00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:20,680
Speaker 1: you know, We've talked about this a little bit in

728
00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:24,560
Speaker 1: in previous year's shows and Fantasy Football Weekly. The guys

729
00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:27,840
Speaker 1: that have sustained greatness more often than not, like multi

730
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:31,920
Speaker 1: year are bigger bodied receiver Various Thomas's, the Treille Owens,

731
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:35,560
Speaker 1: the Andre Johnson yeah right, yeah. DeAndre Hopkins is the

732
00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:38,600
Speaker 1: reason they called prototypical, right yep. And you know the

733
00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:41,400
Speaker 1: the smaller guys, it tends to be much more erratic,

734
00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:43,400
Speaker 1: and I think the clus strates higher. That's some of

735
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:46,840
Speaker 1: my worries for DeVonta Smith at average draft position number

736
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:51,719
Speaker 1: seven is the first one that I really really don't like.

737
00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:57,200
Speaker 1: San Francisco running back Trey Sermon Matt too high, too low,

738
00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:00,759
Speaker 1: or just right. You didn't even have to influenced me

739
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:03,200
Speaker 1: on this one. I'm right there with you. I think

740
00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:06,800
Speaker 1: that this is way too high. They drafted to running

741
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:11,279
Speaker 1: backs in San Francisco, and Kyle Shanahan is from the

742
00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:16,839
Speaker 1: family tree of Shannahanigans. There's running back shannahanigans going on

743
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:19,200
Speaker 1: all over the place there, and you're never going to

744
00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:21,719
Speaker 1: feel quite confident that one running back has taken over

745
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:26,200
Speaker 1: that job. So he's way too high for me. I know,

746
00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:29,040
Speaker 1: you feel differently Scott, No, I I like him more

747
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:31,840
Speaker 1: than you, but like he's the guy I took in

748
00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:34,279
Speaker 1: a rookie draft in the mid second, right before the

749
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:36,560
Speaker 1: cliff goes off, and I felt good about that. Yeah,

750
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:38,400
Speaker 1: I don't feel good about him in the mid first.

751
00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:41,839
Speaker 1: That's crazy talk to me. There At least I think

752
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:44,840
Speaker 1: I'm counting three or four wide receivers I take above Sermons,

753
00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:47,440
Speaker 1: so like, I'm this is way. We all agreed that

754
00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:49,399
Speaker 1: pick seven is too high for trade sermon. I don't

755
00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:51,319
Speaker 1: think he's a special talent. He was taken in the

756
00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:55,080
Speaker 1: third round, but many draft services graded him into the fifth, six,

757
00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:57,600
Speaker 1: and seventh round, and so I think it was a

758
00:39:57,600 --> 00:40:00,959
Speaker 1: reach pick in as you mentioned, Kyle Shanahan simply isn't

759
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:04,000
Speaker 1: a work horse coach with his runners. I've got a

760
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:06,520
Speaker 1: couple of quarterbacks are running back and a few wide

761
00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:09,879
Speaker 1: receivers above. The perfect time to bring up pick number eight,

762
00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:14,000
Speaker 1: Jacksonville quarterback Trevor Lawrence ad pick eight. Is this too high?

763
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:16,960
Speaker 1: Too low? Or just right? Scott? I think quarterbacks have

764
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:19,240
Speaker 1: gotten too deep lately. We're in a one quarterback league.

765
00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:21,920
Speaker 1: I still have a couple of players I like above.

766
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:23,759
Speaker 1: Taking the quarterback this high and the first if I'm

767
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:26,560
Speaker 1: at the end of the first maybe because you're probably

768
00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:28,440
Speaker 1: a champion or close and it might be a luxury

769
00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:30,759
Speaker 1: pick for you. But here I'm going with a guy

770
00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:34,480
Speaker 1: that's like three spots below. You know, when they talk

771
00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:36,960
Speaker 1: about guys coming out in the draft being like the

772
00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:39,960
Speaker 1: can't miss quarterback, there's only a few that come to mind.

773
00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:42,000
Speaker 1: And you know, one was Andrew Luck and he was

774
00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:44,759
Speaker 1: great for a number of fantasy years. And the one

775
00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:47,600
Speaker 1: since then was Trevor Lawrence. Even Patrick Mahomes didn't really

776
00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:50,279
Speaker 1: get that billing when he came through the draft. It

777
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:53,200
Speaker 1: was a fourth quarterback, third quarterback taken. Yeah, it was um. So,

778
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:55,840
Speaker 1: I think that Lawrence is just about right here because

779
00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:58,640
Speaker 1: if if you truly believe that he is one of

780
00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:01,719
Speaker 1: those generational talents at the position, you can take him

781
00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:03,000
Speaker 1: here and then you can feel like you have a

782
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:05,359
Speaker 1: good quarterback for a really long time. Yeah, I think

783
00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:07,640
Speaker 1: this is about right. He's the most pro ready quarterback

784
00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:09,440
Speaker 1: since the Luck, as you mentioned, and I think people

785
00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:12,360
Speaker 1: forget about his running aptitude. You know, he can be

786
00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:15,200
Speaker 1: four or five rushing touchdowns a year, and you know

787
00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:18,799
Speaker 1: he has the upside be like thirty five passing touchdowns,

788
00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:22,600
Speaker 1: and then he gets into really special fantasy production territory

789
00:41:22,640 --> 00:41:25,920
Speaker 1: for Trevor Lawrence pick number nine by your average draft positions,

790
00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:29,680
Speaker 1: Miami wide receiver Jalen Waddle, tell me if you think

791
00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:32,200
Speaker 1: this is too high, too low, or about right? Scott,

792
00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:35,000
Speaker 1: all right, I think we're on Matt, We're on time. Yeah,

793
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:36,920
Speaker 1: I think that's a little too high for me. There's

794
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:39,239
Speaker 1: a couple of wide receivers that I like above Wattle here,

795
00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:41,239
Speaker 1: and there's one running back that I like above him

796
00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:45,480
Speaker 1: as well, So Wattle I would move down to about twelve, thirteen, fourteen,

797
00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:51,760
Speaker 1: fifteen somewhere in there. Yeah, it's it's only one spot

798
00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:54,680
Speaker 1: too high for me, because there is you know, one

799
00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:58,879
Speaker 1: one spot too low or so he's about right about

800
00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:01,640
Speaker 1: he's he's about right. There's one wide receiver coming up

801
00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:03,719
Speaker 1: that's actually my wide receiver too, and so I guess

802
00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:05,960
Speaker 1: I was wrong on Davonta Smith earlier. I have another

803
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:08,359
Speaker 1: guy coming up as my wide receiver too, but he's

804
00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:11,359
Speaker 1: about right because I have Trevor Lawrence below both of them.

805
00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:14,200
Speaker 1: I have Jalen Waddle about right here at pick number nine.

806
00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:15,840
Speaker 1: I worry that he's gonna get lost in the shuffle

807
00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:19,160
Speaker 1: between Will Fuller, DeVante Parker and two. It didn't impress

808
00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:21,319
Speaker 1: me last year, but in time I think he will

809
00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:24,839
Speaker 1: become better. Ship Fuller and DeVante Parker at least has

810
00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:29,160
Speaker 1: the upside to be at pick number ten. New York

811
00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:32,920
Speaker 1: Jets running back Michael Carter. Is this too high or

812
00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:35,839
Speaker 1: too low? Scott? I mean again, we're in a We're

813
00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:38,239
Speaker 1: in a spot where I like wide receivers more than

814
00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:40,880
Speaker 1: running backs. I think he's in a really good spot.

815
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:43,040
Speaker 1: I think that you know, he could be there. He's

816
00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:45,880
Speaker 1: probably going to be their lead back. Um, I'm probably

817
00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:48,480
Speaker 1: taking at the end of the second because there are

818
00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:50,600
Speaker 1: one or two guys I probably end of the second,

819
00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:53,560
Speaker 1: end of the first. Excuse me, but it's it's not

820
00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:56,160
Speaker 1: a terrible spot in that ten eleven twelve range. Alright,

821
00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:59,000
Speaker 1: Michael Carter, pick ten? You cool with that. I'd probably

822
00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:01,839
Speaker 1: have eleven twelve probably close to that. I'd move him up.

823
00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:05,759
Speaker 1: I think that he's the only rookie running back in

824
00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:10,439
Speaker 1: this class that has the distinct possibility besides Nagi of course, yes,

825
00:43:10,560 --> 00:43:13,359
Speaker 1: of being a bell cow in his offense. And that's

826
00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:16,040
Speaker 1: why I like Michael Carter close to like five or

827
00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:18,719
Speaker 1: six in draft. You took all my talking points except one.

828
00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:21,000
Speaker 1: The Jets offensive lines got two first round picks from

829
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:23,520
Speaker 1: the last two years, and it's it's better than people think.

830
00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:28,240
Speaker 1: All right, Pick number eleven, Baltimore wide receiver Rashad Bateman.

831
00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:31,520
Speaker 1: Is this too high, too low or about right? Matt Um?

832
00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:34,240
Speaker 1: I think it's about right. I got one guy ahead

833
00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:37,160
Speaker 1: of him on the wide receiver chart, but Bateman looks

834
00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:41,839
Speaker 1: like he is wide receiver one already in Baltimore. Scott same.

835
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:44,920
Speaker 1: He's my wide receiver to overall behind Chase, so I

836
00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:47,320
Speaker 1: would have put him closer to the mid first round. Okay.

837
00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:50,719
Speaker 1: And the last a DP rookie is New York Jets

838
00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:54,319
Speaker 1: wide receiver Elijah Moore having a fantastic camp. Too high,

839
00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:56,800
Speaker 1: too low, or about right? Perfect spot for him, perfect

840
00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:59,160
Speaker 1: spot right about here. I talked a little bit about

841
00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:01,080
Speaker 1: him before, and I'd move them up a spot or two.

842
00:44:01,520 --> 00:44:03,279
Speaker 1: Actually I would too, because I would have in Buff

843
00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:06,279
Speaker 1: Carter and sermon. But that's about right. You know, you

844
00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:09,680
Speaker 1: know we are picked, that's about right. When we come back,

845
00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:12,359
Speaker 1: our number two Fantasy Football Weekly will get into round

846
00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:15,680
Speaker 1: two where things really hit a cliff here and you've

847
00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:19,279
Speaker 1: got a weird hard to find some value at that

848
00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:22,719
Speaker 1: stage of your dynasty or empire draft. Stay tuned. Fantasy

849
00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:52,360
Speaker 1: Football Weekly continues in moments our number two Fantasy Football

850
00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:56,520
Speaker 1: Weekly Paul Charchi and Scott Fish and Matt Harrison with you.

851
00:44:57,239 --> 00:44:59,320
Speaker 1: If you haven't yet tried a Guillotine league, we encourage

852
00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:02,560
Speaker 1: you to try the freshest new way to play fantasy football.

853
00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:05,359
Speaker 1: Eight Teen teams start the season. At the end of

854
00:45:05,480 --> 00:45:08,239
Speaker 1: every week, the low scoring team gets cut and their

855
00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:12,799
Speaker 1: entire team goes the waiver wire, where pandemonium ensues. You've

856
00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:18,920
Speaker 1: never had a chance to bid on guys like Alvin Kamara,

857
00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:22,920
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes. These are keenan Allen. A whole draft of

858
00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:26,000
Speaker 1: players never hits the waiver wire. It is the hey

859
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:28,040
Speaker 1: this year. If se Kwon Berkley does miss a couple

860
00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:32,920
Speaker 1: of games early out there, he's gonna yep. And then

861
00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:34,880
Speaker 1: you got to decide a little bit like when Christian

862
00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:39,040
Speaker 1: when Christian McCaffrey got hurt early last year, when's the

863
00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:40,840
Speaker 1: time to get in on that bidding. Because if you

864
00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:42,520
Speaker 1: got in, if you put in too much of your

865
00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:47,080
Speaker 1: free agent budget on Christian McCaffrey early last year. All

866
00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:48,799
Speaker 1: he did is way down your team, you were short

867
00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:50,479
Speaker 1: on money, and then you got cut and here's Christian

868
00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:53,799
Speaker 1: McAffrey again on the waiver wire. And then somebody else

869
00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:56,239
Speaker 1: would pick him up, spend a bunch of money, and

870
00:45:56,280 --> 00:45:59,200
Speaker 1: then they'd get cut. And Christian McCaffrey kept cycling through

871
00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:00,920
Speaker 1: and the end of that. I bet at the end

872
00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:03,080
Speaker 1: of the year and our thousand dollar FAB League at

873
00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:05,279
Speaker 1: Guillotine leagues dot com, I bet he picked up on

874
00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:10,680
Speaker 1: average around FAB got spent on him churning through teams

875
00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:13,359
Speaker 1: over the course of the season. It's round number two

876
00:46:13,360 --> 00:46:16,799
Speaker 1: of our Dynasty Empire Rookie Draft by your adp the

877
00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:20,719
Speaker 1: national average. This is where you're taking everybody, but we're

878
00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:24,160
Speaker 1: establishing whether or not you guys are getting it wrong

879
00:46:24,520 --> 00:46:27,240
Speaker 1: or right with each of your selections. The first round

880
00:46:27,239 --> 00:46:31,120
Speaker 1: went Najie Harris, Jamaches cal Pits, Travis the running Back

881
00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:34,120
Speaker 1: formerly known as Travis E. T n The Ancient One,

882
00:46:34,880 --> 00:46:39,040
Speaker 1: Javante Williams, DeVante Smith, Tray Sermon who we really didn't

883
00:46:39,040 --> 00:46:43,680
Speaker 1: like this spot, Trevor Lawrence at pick number eight, Jalen Waddle,

884
00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:47,200
Speaker 1: Michael Carter, Rashad Bateman, and in the twelfth spot, Elijah Moore.

885
00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:51,920
Speaker 1: Now it's round number two and the highest ADP player

886
00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:55,720
Speaker 1: left here is San Francisco quarterback Trey Lance. Too high,

887
00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:59,319
Speaker 1: too low, or just right, Scott, I think it's just

888
00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:02,880
Speaker 1: about uh in this list, I probably would have had

889
00:47:02,920 --> 00:47:05,479
Speaker 1: him like twelve or so, so like I I would

890
00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:08,320
Speaker 1: I would almost rather have a quarterback like Trey Lance

891
00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:10,919
Speaker 1: in a league like the in a in a dynasty league,

892
00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:14,279
Speaker 1: just because I think his rushing upside is so huge. Um,

893
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:17,520
Speaker 1: you can you can play around with starters other starters

894
00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:19,520
Speaker 1: until you hit one on one of these big guys

895
00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:22,520
Speaker 1: that becomes a Josh Allen or Patrick Mahomes or a

896
00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:25,200
Speaker 1: you know, um Kyler Murray or something. And I think

897
00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:28,040
Speaker 1: Trey Lance has that potential. So um, I probably have

898
00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:30,239
Speaker 1: been spot or too higher just because I have I

899
00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:32,680
Speaker 1: have Lawrence a little lower, and I have Sermon a

900
00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:36,880
Speaker 1: little lower. Stuff like that, Matt. I think Scott stole

901
00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:39,200
Speaker 1: most of the thunder there. If you think Trey Lance

902
00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:42,960
Speaker 1: can be Josh Allen in two years or Lamar Jackson

903
00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:46,439
Speaker 1: in two years, gosh, that's a pretty good pick right here,

904
00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:49,440
Speaker 1: and it's first pick in the second round. I take him.

905
00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:50,799
Speaker 1: I think he might be a little too low. Yeah,

906
00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:52,120
Speaker 1: I got way too low. I think you should go

907
00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:54,200
Speaker 1: in the middle of the first round. I think by

908
00:47:54,239 --> 00:47:59,719
Speaker 1: half a round in that's I'm ready. First quarterback off

909
00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:01,960
Speaker 1: the board. I'm fine because of the upside. I think

910
00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:04,000
Speaker 1: that's kind of where we both landed. All right, I'm

911
00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:07,320
Speaker 1: learning what your next draft strategy and it's about to

912
00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:10,120
Speaker 1: be right. Uh, let's go to pick number two of

913
00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:15,280
Speaker 1: the second round, Caroline wide receiver receiver Terrorists Marshall, Matt

914
00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:18,560
Speaker 1: Is this too high, too low? Or about right? You know?

915
00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:23,080
Speaker 1: Scott was speaking glowingly about terrorist Marshall and and I've

916
00:48:23,080 --> 00:48:25,600
Speaker 1: heard nothing but the same. It's it's been all good

917
00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:28,680
Speaker 1: on a terrorist Marshall in camp, and I have him

918
00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:31,239
Speaker 1: a little bit higher on my list of wide receivers.

919
00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:34,520
Speaker 1: So this is way too low for me. I love

920
00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:37,880
Speaker 1: Terris Marshall. Right after the draft happened. I was doing drafts,

921
00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:40,879
Speaker 1: you know, right after the draft, I was consistently taking

922
00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:43,720
Speaker 1: him at two a one, and so it's already too low.

923
00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:47,200
Speaker 1: It's only too too yeah, so it's about right. But

924
00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:49,919
Speaker 1: now he's just glowing in camp. He's going to take

925
00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:53,399
Speaker 1: over like he played slot in college. He's taking over

926
00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:57,759
Speaker 1: that Curtis Samuel Role, he's reunited with Joe Brady there. Um.

927
00:48:57,800 --> 00:49:00,919
Speaker 1: I love everything about the six ft four, big slot guy,

928
00:49:01,080 --> 00:49:03,239
Speaker 1: Arris Marshall. I would take him in the first round.

929
00:49:03,320 --> 00:49:08,800
Speaker 1: Do you have Terris Marshall above Jalen Waddle? I do? Yeah, Yeah,

930
00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:12,680
Speaker 1: so yep, I have I have him yeah, way up there. Yeah,

931
00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:15,520
Speaker 1: unique downfield skill set that makes him a nice match

932
00:49:15,560 --> 00:49:17,480
Speaker 1: for Sam Donald's arm. You never get a six foot

933
00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:21,000
Speaker 1: four slot receiver and he can play outside. Yeah and yeah,

934
00:49:21,080 --> 00:49:22,719
Speaker 1: and I'm sure he could, but I don't know that

935
00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:25,080
Speaker 1: he will. Yeah, he doesn't need to with Robby Anderson

936
00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:28,319
Speaker 1: on one more year. Yeah, that's probably true. Uh. The

937
00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:31,560
Speaker 1: third pick in the second round in Dynasty Empire Drafts,

938
00:49:31,600 --> 00:49:35,279
Speaker 1: by your average draft position is Justin Fields. Is this

939
00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:39,359
Speaker 1: too high, too low? Or just right? Scott? It's it's

940
00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:42,040
Speaker 1: pretty much what we said with Lance. It's just about

941
00:49:42,160 --> 00:49:45,000
Speaker 1: right because the guy's going below him. I have a

942
00:49:45,080 --> 00:49:49,239
Speaker 1: lot less confidence in as as players at their positions

943
00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:51,920
Speaker 1: when Fields is a guy that could be a franchise

944
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:54,719
Speaker 1: quarterback for ten years and you know, have a decent

945
00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:58,080
Speaker 1: rushing upside. Matt, you like justin Fields here? Yeah, we're

946
00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:01,440
Speaker 1: teetering very very close to the the cliff. We're not

947
00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:04,120
Speaker 1: at the cliff yet. I can see it, though I can.

948
00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:05,919
Speaker 1: I can kick a rock and it's about to go

949
00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:09,680
Speaker 1: to are my Thelma and Louise? Somebody are driving fast?

950
00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:12,240
Speaker 1: Why at the edge of the are we all holding hands?

951
00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:15,319
Speaker 1: I'm the Brad Pitt in this example, by the way,

952
00:50:15,480 --> 00:50:20,320
Speaker 1: just to be clear, okay, yes, uh, Justin Fields to me,

953
00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:22,360
Speaker 1: this is about right. Maybe a little too low. I

954
00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:24,279
Speaker 1: prefer lance, but I love the fields can give you

955
00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:26,480
Speaker 1: the passing and the rushing in the athleticism and the

956
00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:29,200
Speaker 1: deep balls, and those are special quarterbacks that can go

957
00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:31,560
Speaker 1: win leaks. So I would not mind. I wouldn't have

958
00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:33,560
Speaker 1: a problem with somebody took Justin Fields a little higher

959
00:50:33,560 --> 00:50:35,439
Speaker 1: than the third pick of the second round. Now, Church,

960
00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:38,439
Speaker 1: is this the end of a tier? Because I'm looking

961
00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:40,439
Speaker 1: at the rest of the rookies and this is kind

962
00:50:40,440 --> 00:50:42,400
Speaker 1: of the edge of a tier for me. If we're

963
00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:43,640
Speaker 1: at the end of the tier, I'm gonna ask you

964
00:50:43,640 --> 00:50:46,960
Speaker 1: a question. Would you take trade sermon at this end

965
00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:50,520
Speaker 1: of this tier? This is the right spot right here.

966
00:50:50,560 --> 00:50:53,560
Speaker 1: I'll flot in trade sermon right here. The fourth pick

967
00:50:53,600 --> 00:50:56,239
Speaker 1: in the second round by your national average for average

968
00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:59,960
Speaker 1: traft position among rookies Arizona wide receiver Ron del More

969
00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:02,120
Speaker 1: or Matt Is this too high, too low? Or about

970
00:51:02,200 --> 00:51:04,759
Speaker 1: right now? Talking about the Tears, I think there's two

971
00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:07,560
Speaker 1: players in the next tier, and it's the next two

972
00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:10,840
Speaker 1: players on this board, and then after that it gets nasty.

973
00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:13,080
Speaker 1: So I think, uh, I think Ron Dale Moore is

974
00:51:13,080 --> 00:51:15,440
Speaker 1: in a good spot right here. A little nervous that

975
00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:18,520
Speaker 1: there might not be enough balls to go around in Arizona,

976
00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:21,160
Speaker 1: but I think that he's in a good spot here. Yeah,

977
00:51:21,360 --> 00:51:23,279
Speaker 1: as we mentioned on the show, when we we did

978
00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:26,520
Speaker 1: this team preview, Rondel Moore, I I likened him to

979
00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:29,719
Speaker 1: a squirrel in the road, like he changes directions so ridiculous.

980
00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:33,120
Speaker 1: And there's been so many camp videos of him breaking ankles.

981
00:51:33,360 --> 00:51:35,920
Speaker 1: I still have him above sermons, So we're not all right,

982
00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:38,880
Speaker 1: we're not even. So it's road kill more in a

983
00:51:38,880 --> 00:51:42,799
Speaker 1: different way because he's breaking other people's ankles. Correct, Yes,

984
00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:45,719
Speaker 1: but he's only five ft seven, So he's going to

985
00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:47,880
Speaker 1: be the road kill sooner or later in Rondelmore. And

986
00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:50,520
Speaker 1: that's the worried for me. It's like amped running over

987
00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:52,760
Speaker 1: a squirrel. You know he's gonna run from the slot.

988
00:51:52,840 --> 00:51:54,960
Speaker 1: You know, Larry Fitzgield's gone, so that frees up all

989
00:51:55,000 --> 00:51:58,600
Speaker 1: those slot targets and you get the quick twitch athleticism,

990
00:51:58,640 --> 00:52:02,040
Speaker 1: incredibly fast, the four of the four three speed for

991
00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:05,080
Speaker 1: Ron del Moore, and he's gonna get He's gonna get

992
00:52:05,120 --> 00:52:09,080
Speaker 1: the bubble screens, the gadget plays, the periodic runs. We

993
00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:11,799
Speaker 1: just need to stay healthy. At five ft seven, just word,

994
00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:14,680
Speaker 1: he's gonna get mauled over the middle, and that you know,

995
00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:17,520
Speaker 1: any like any catch could be the last Ron Delmore.

996
00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:21,400
Speaker 1: Let's go to pick number five. Average draft positions, rookie

997
00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:24,759
Speaker 1: drafts and Dynasty and Empire leagues. Zach Wilson, New York

998
00:52:24,840 --> 00:52:27,359
Speaker 1: Jets quarterback. Is this too high, too low? Or about right?

999
00:52:28,320 --> 00:52:32,240
Speaker 1: And we're on it's Scots first, Alright, let's do it.

1000
00:52:32,239 --> 00:52:34,440
Speaker 1: It's fine. It's it's fine. Where it's at in a

1001
00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:36,560
Speaker 1: one in a in a one quarterback league. I think

1002
00:52:36,680 --> 00:52:38,920
Speaker 1: I think we're at that cliff where I'd be like,

1003
00:52:39,120 --> 00:52:41,080
Speaker 1: do I want Wilson? Do I want sermon? I mean

1004
00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:43,960
Speaker 1: it's a one quarterback league. Maybe I do take sermon um.

1005
00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:46,320
Speaker 1: So I think it's it's fair, it's right where worship

1006
00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:49,640
Speaker 1: where we should be He's definitely got that quarterback upside

1007
00:52:49,680 --> 00:52:52,839
Speaker 1: that we've been talking about. Not as shiny as the

1008
00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:55,640
Speaker 1: other three quarterbacks we talked about. Zack Wilson doesn't have

1009
00:52:55,680 --> 00:52:59,839
Speaker 1: the rushing upside. No he doesn't. So he's he can

1010
00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:03,439
Speaker 1: really good at times. Yeah, he can raw talent for sure.

1011
00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:05,680
Speaker 1: So I think this is the end of the tier

1012
00:53:05,760 --> 00:53:08,239
Speaker 1: and we are now at the cliff, and here we

1013
00:53:08,320 --> 00:53:11,399
Speaker 1: go over the edge the edges. Here's for sure. Pick

1014
00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:14,840
Speaker 1: number six and by your average draft position in the

1015
00:53:14,880 --> 00:53:17,920
Speaker 1: second round is New York Giants wide receiver Kadarius Tony.

1016
00:53:18,000 --> 00:53:21,680
Speaker 1: And man, is this wrong? Matt, go ahead and elucidate

1017
00:53:21,719 --> 00:53:25,560
Speaker 1: the many reasons. Um, they got like fifteen wide receivers,

1018
00:53:25,600 --> 00:53:28,879
Speaker 1: they're including Kenny Golladay, they got the worst offensive line

1019
00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:31,600
Speaker 1: in the league, and Daniel Jones isn't inspiring a lot

1020
00:53:31,600 --> 00:53:34,600
Speaker 1: of confidence. Plus when se Kwan is healthy, he's probably

1021
00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:37,520
Speaker 1: their leading target getter. So I don't think Cadarius Tony

1022
00:53:37,719 --> 00:53:41,480
Speaker 1: might see more than two passes a game throwing his way. Scott.

1023
00:53:41,960 --> 00:53:45,400
Speaker 1: Yeah this this, by the way, Daniel Jones threw eleven

1024
00:53:45,400 --> 00:53:48,640
Speaker 1: touchdown passes last year. That's so hard to do. But

1025
00:53:48,760 --> 00:53:51,040
Speaker 1: that's a starting quarterback but you can still point and

1026
00:53:51,120 --> 00:53:56,400
Speaker 1: laugh at Cam Newton. Very true, Very true. Cam Newton's

1027
00:53:56,400 --> 00:53:59,640
Speaker 1: pointing and laughing at that run though this Daniel Jones, Yeah,

1028
00:53:59,680 --> 00:54:03,120
Speaker 1: this is this is too want to retripped himself. Yes,

1029
00:54:03,560 --> 00:54:05,479
Speaker 1: this is too high. If I'm going to say something

1030
00:54:05,560 --> 00:54:08,319
Speaker 1: positive though, just you don't have to know. I mean

1031
00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:11,239
Speaker 1: Kadarius Tony, I mean he's a subscriber to the podcast,

1032
00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:13,360
Speaker 1: the show and everything, but you know, it doesn't mean

1033
00:54:13,440 --> 00:54:15,400
Speaker 1: we have to play Kate. Kadarius tone End was a

1034
00:54:15,440 --> 00:54:18,480
Speaker 1: member of Tony Tony Tony. They did invest a first

1035
00:54:18,560 --> 00:54:21,720
Speaker 1: rounder on him, and they did and three different teams

1036
00:54:21,719 --> 00:54:23,839
Speaker 1: were trying to trade up into the first to get him.

1037
00:54:24,120 --> 00:54:26,200
Speaker 1: So there's there's got to be something there. There's not

1038
00:54:26,239 --> 00:54:28,080
Speaker 1: a lot of you know, he didn't have a lot

1039
00:54:28,080 --> 00:54:30,120
Speaker 1: of stats in college, but he's such a good gadget

1040
00:54:30,120 --> 00:54:32,719
Speaker 1: guy that if they can find like Leiviska Chanlt, if

1041
00:54:32,719 --> 00:54:34,440
Speaker 1: they can find ways to get the ball in his hands,

1042
00:54:35,040 --> 00:54:37,040
Speaker 1: you know they need things to improve there. So down

1043
00:54:37,120 --> 00:54:39,400
Speaker 1: the line maybe, but it's still too high for me.

1044
00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:42,080
Speaker 1: How many of those gadget guys ever work out and

1045
00:54:42,280 --> 00:54:44,759
Speaker 1: they all they're all trade Tavon Austin that's the thing

1046
00:54:45,760 --> 00:54:49,960
Speaker 1: they rarely work out, and it was the high end

1047
00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:52,680
Speaker 1: of that. But yeah, and he he wasn't even as

1048
00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:55,799
Speaker 1: fantasy viable as some of these other names that we've mentioned. No,

1049
00:54:55,960 --> 00:54:57,759
Speaker 1: it's true. I mean he had some good years, but

1050
00:54:57,840 --> 00:55:01,239
Speaker 1: he was not always fantasy viable either. Kadarius Tony. A

1051
00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:03,040
Speaker 1: lot of people don't know. It's just a little piece

1052
00:55:03,040 --> 00:55:06,920
Speaker 1: of trivia. He is reprising the role of Tony Soprano

1053
00:55:07,080 --> 00:55:11,480
Speaker 1: in the prequel that HBO is developing. Yeah, uh, pick

1054
00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:14,520
Speaker 1: number seven in the second round of a Dynasty Empire

1055
00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:18,960
Speaker 1: League by your ADP. His Detroit wide receiver am On

1056
00:55:19,360 --> 00:55:23,480
Speaker 1: raw St Brown Scott. I know you like him. I

1057
00:55:23,520 --> 00:55:26,600
Speaker 1: do like him. I really to hide too low or

1058
00:55:26,640 --> 00:55:31,480
Speaker 1: about right's been talking to boys forever. Yeah, he's he's

1059
00:55:31,560 --> 00:55:33,600
Speaker 1: too low for me. I would have him a spot

1060
00:55:33,719 --> 00:55:36,640
Speaker 1: or two above this. Uh, he's just in a position

1061
00:55:36,640 --> 00:55:38,680
Speaker 1: where he could be he could be the leading target

1062
00:55:38,719 --> 00:55:40,520
Speaker 1: get around that team, Like he's gonna get a decent

1063
00:55:40,520 --> 00:55:42,880
Speaker 1: amount of targets. He's gonna get. He's got the starting

1064
00:55:43,719 --> 00:55:46,200
Speaker 1: I can't imagine a situation he's not the starting slot

1065
00:55:46,239 --> 00:55:49,400
Speaker 1: receiver there. So right, Yeah, I have a couple of

1066
00:55:49,640 --> 00:55:53,240
Speaker 1: high Detroit's gonna pass often there. As a rebuilding team,

1067
00:55:53,360 --> 00:55:55,920
Speaker 1: they're incentivized to give their young players a lot of

1068
00:55:55,920 --> 00:55:59,319
Speaker 1: playing time. He's staying after practice, just one handed on

1069
00:55:59,360 --> 00:56:02,920
Speaker 1: the jug machine for like, yeah, he's first in last

1070
00:56:03,080 --> 00:56:05,359
Speaker 1: kind of guy. You're Jared Goff, who's, by the way,

1071
00:56:05,360 --> 00:56:07,959
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously used to throw into a slot receiver. Um,

1072
00:56:08,000 --> 00:56:11,000
Speaker 1: and you you drop back to pass? Do I throw

1073
00:56:11,080 --> 00:56:15,000
Speaker 1: to Tyrolle Williams? Ever? Why what's the point? You know?

1074
00:56:15,080 --> 00:56:19,560
Speaker 1: I'd rather getman Detroit wide receiver. I'm on ros st Brown.

1075
00:56:19,560 --> 00:56:21,520
Speaker 1: We all think that this is we all think this

1076
00:56:21,560 --> 00:56:24,640
Speaker 1: is too low, right, Okay, even though we're off the cliff,

1077
00:56:25,640 --> 00:56:28,560
Speaker 1: it's still we're falling. We are falling, and we're not

1078
00:56:28,600 --> 00:56:30,920
Speaker 1: going to get up the eighth pick of the second

1079
00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:34,800
Speaker 1: round by your average draft position in dynasty drafts. Philadelphia

1080
00:56:34,960 --> 00:56:38,799
Speaker 1: running back Kenneth Gainwell, Matt, what do you think too high?

1081
00:56:38,800 --> 00:56:40,920
Speaker 1: Too lower? About right now? It's about right. I mean

1082
00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:44,160
Speaker 1: it's a guy that could take over in a pinch

1083
00:56:44,200 --> 00:56:46,640
Speaker 1: if Miles Sanders is dinged up again like he was

1084
00:56:46,680 --> 00:56:49,239
Speaker 1: a little bit last year. So, but they do have

1085
00:56:49,320 --> 00:56:53,440
Speaker 1: Boston Scott there, and I think they have oh gosh,

1086
00:56:53,440 --> 00:56:56,239
Speaker 1: who's the old Detroit running back that they signed. Well,

1087
00:56:56,320 --> 00:56:59,760
Speaker 1: carry on Johnson, he's over there too, so uh, lots

1088
00:57:00,120 --> 00:57:02,960
Speaker 1: lots of depth chart issues there, but you know he's

1089
00:57:03,000 --> 00:57:05,320
Speaker 1: got a chance. Right now, Miles Sanders and Boston Scott

1090
00:57:05,360 --> 00:57:08,360
Speaker 1: are basically splitting carries in camp and they are working

1091
00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:11,239
Speaker 1: a roll in for Gainewell. They've talked about that. Um,

1092
00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:15,040
Speaker 1: I it's gonna take something for that. He Actually the

1093
00:57:15,080 --> 00:57:17,080
Speaker 1: next several people were going to talk about I have

1094
00:57:17,120 --> 00:57:18,920
Speaker 1: too high because I have guys in the third I

1095
00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:22,360
Speaker 1: like better. Alright, Philadelphia running back Kenneth Gainewell too high

1096
00:57:22,440 --> 00:57:24,600
Speaker 1: for me at this stage, eighth pick of the second round.

1097
00:57:24,640 --> 00:57:27,440
Speaker 1: He's a poor man's Boston Scott, and inconveniently for him,

1098
00:57:27,520 --> 00:57:30,560
Speaker 1: Boston Scott is already on this team. Yes, uh, pick

1099
00:57:30,640 --> 00:57:33,840
Speaker 1: number nine my average draft position on rookie drafts in

1100
00:57:33,880 --> 00:57:38,240
Speaker 1: the second round, Pittsburgh tight end Pat Friar Muth Scott

1101
00:57:38,920 --> 00:57:41,200
Speaker 1: too high, too low? Or about right? Yeah, it's it's

1102
00:57:41,240 --> 00:57:43,240
Speaker 1: still too high for me, just because there's other guys

1103
00:57:43,280 --> 00:57:45,200
Speaker 1: I I like coming up, guy that we're not even

1104
00:57:45,200 --> 00:57:47,160
Speaker 1: going to talk about, maybe like in the second round,

1105
00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:49,360
Speaker 1: like Nico Collins, who might get a ton of targets

1106
00:57:49,360 --> 00:57:52,240
Speaker 1: for Houston here in the show. I love Nico Collins,

1107
00:57:52,400 --> 00:57:54,120
Speaker 1: just a big guy that's gonna get a lot of work.

1108
00:57:54,120 --> 00:57:56,080
Speaker 1: And Dammy Brown for Washington. I like it. I like

1109
00:57:56,160 --> 00:57:58,920
Speaker 1: these guys better than guys like fire Muth. And what

1110
00:57:58,960 --> 00:58:01,000
Speaker 1: do we know what that's for? Offense is gonna be

1111
00:58:01,000 --> 00:58:03,320
Speaker 1: next year with Ben gone and those receivers still like

1112
00:58:04,120 --> 00:58:08,480
Speaker 1: I I don't love it. Yeah, I'm with Scott on

1113
00:58:08,520 --> 00:58:10,160
Speaker 1: the on the fact that I don't love him in

1114
00:58:10,160 --> 00:58:14,200
Speaker 1: this position either, mostly because tight end rookies are just

1115
00:58:14,360 --> 00:58:16,480
Speaker 1: bad and if you're taking one this late, it's just

1116
00:58:16,520 --> 00:58:19,680
Speaker 1: cramming up a roster spot on my roster. I'll wait

1117
00:58:19,840 --> 00:58:23,760
Speaker 1: till somebody drops him, and somebody will somebody draft him

1118
00:58:23,760 --> 00:58:25,320
Speaker 1: and drop him this year. I'll pick him up in

1119
00:58:25,360 --> 00:58:27,840
Speaker 1: December and just throw him on my roster and feel

1120
00:58:27,840 --> 00:58:29,720
Speaker 1: good about it. Then Eric he runs in the last

1121
00:58:29,760 --> 00:58:32,720
Speaker 1: year of his deal. Pat Friar Muth is going to

1122
00:58:32,760 --> 00:58:36,200
Speaker 1: be the starter for the Steelers next year. And you know,

1123
00:58:36,240 --> 00:58:38,880
Speaker 1: if you're in a deep enough dynasty or empire league, okay,

1124
00:58:39,040 --> 00:58:41,680
Speaker 1: I can see you pick him here and stash him

1125
00:58:41,760 --> 00:58:44,560
Speaker 1: and you've got Pittsburgh starter. I don't to your point.

1126
00:58:44,560 --> 00:58:45,960
Speaker 1: I don't know who's gonna throw them the ball though.

1127
00:58:46,160 --> 00:58:48,680
Speaker 1: That's a that's a big question mark right now. At

1128
00:58:48,720 --> 00:58:51,800
Speaker 1: pick number ten in Dynasty Empire rookie drafts in the

1129
00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:55,800
Speaker 1: second round, Carolina running back Cuba Hubbard, Matt you like

1130
00:58:55,960 --> 00:58:58,040
Speaker 1: him here? Too high? Too low or about right? He's

1131
00:58:58,120 --> 00:59:01,920
Speaker 1: just buried behind Christian mccalfe. Free. Uh, it's too high

1132
00:59:02,000 --> 00:59:03,800
Speaker 1: for me. I don't want to put a guy on

1133
00:59:03,880 --> 00:59:08,000
Speaker 1: my roster that's just hidden behind the best running back

1134
00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:11,480
Speaker 1: in football. It's it's a little high just because the

1135
00:59:11,520 --> 00:59:13,560
Speaker 1: receivers I mentioned that I like better. I even like

1136
00:59:13,720 --> 00:59:15,960
Speaker 1: Scridge in the next round better. I like the guy

1137
00:59:15,960 --> 00:59:18,200
Speaker 1: we're going to talk about next a little better. So

1138
00:59:18,360 --> 00:59:21,240
Speaker 1: he's a little high. Um on the prep. I'm gonna

1139
00:59:21,240 --> 00:59:23,360
Speaker 1: go back front for a second. I'd rather take Jacob

1140
00:59:23,400 --> 00:59:26,200
Speaker 1: Harris for in the like the third or fourth round.

1141
00:59:26,240 --> 00:59:28,320
Speaker 1: Then I would waste a second round or on firemoth

1142
00:59:28,720 --> 00:59:31,280
Speaker 1: it with the eleventh pick in the second round. By

1143
00:59:31,280 --> 00:59:34,840
Speaker 1: average draft position, Dynasty League players are taking rookie Green

1144
00:59:34,880 --> 00:59:39,080
Speaker 1: Bay rookie wide receiver a Maori Rogers. Is this too high,

1145
00:59:39,080 --> 00:59:42,400
Speaker 1: too low or about right? Scott? It's I mean, it's

1146
00:59:42,440 --> 00:59:45,120
Speaker 1: too low because the three above that I don't don't

1147
00:59:45,160 --> 00:59:49,080
Speaker 1: want as high as they're going. I have Amari Rodgers

1148
00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:52,440
Speaker 1: just below Nico Collins. So you know, if you put that,

1149
00:59:52,480 --> 00:59:55,320
Speaker 1: I guess he's a spot too low. Maybe then I guess, okay,

1150
00:59:55,680 --> 00:59:58,480
Speaker 1: I think he's a little too My voice just trying

1151
00:59:58,480 --> 01:00:01,840
Speaker 1: to convince yourself. The higher your voice goes, is this

1152
01:00:01,960 --> 01:00:04,479
Speaker 1: your lie? Tell? Is this like when you're not sure

1153
01:00:04,520 --> 01:00:08,080
Speaker 1: and you're like maybe even lying? It's hard to draft

1154
01:00:08,120 --> 01:00:10,280
Speaker 1: board when I got three guys that I've pulled and

1155
01:00:10,280 --> 01:00:14,320
Speaker 1: put in the third round. Um, the reason I think

1156
01:00:14,320 --> 01:00:16,200
Speaker 1: it's a little low for Marie Rogers, it's just Al

1157
01:00:16,240 --> 01:00:21,480
Speaker 1: Lazard and Marc Hazvelda Scanley have steadfastly refused to take

1158
01:00:21,920 --> 01:00:25,560
Speaker 1: a meaningful role in this offense and get every opportunity.

1159
01:00:25,640 --> 01:00:28,360
Speaker 1: So those guys to me are basically dead to me,

1160
01:00:28,480 --> 01:00:31,560
Speaker 1: and Amari Rodgers has got the opportunity. Let me tell you,

1161
01:00:31,680 --> 01:00:34,680
Speaker 1: Marie Rogers would have moved up a half around with

1162
01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:37,360
Speaker 1: friend Cobb had not gone there. Yeah, would have moved

1163
01:00:37,360 --> 01:00:40,600
Speaker 1: way up, all right, the final pick of the second round,

1164
01:00:40,600 --> 01:00:43,919
Speaker 1: in the last player we're going to talk about our

1165
01:00:44,080 --> 01:00:48,480
Speaker 1: Dynasty draft. This is your adp America is New England

1166
01:00:48,520 --> 01:00:51,520
Speaker 1: quarterback Mac Jones. Scott, go ahead, if you're gonna push

1167
01:00:51,680 --> 01:00:55,160
Speaker 1: on him, explain why, Yeah, it's okay. Why don't you

1168
01:00:55,200 --> 01:00:57,120
Speaker 1: just tell us the guys you want and said it's

1169
01:00:57,120 --> 01:01:00,960
Speaker 1: a one U league. McCorkle is, he's fine, and he's

1170
01:01:01,040 --> 01:01:03,480
Speaker 1: very pro ready, and honestly, if you're looking for a

1171
01:01:03,600 --> 01:01:06,840
Speaker 1: safe floor quarterback, that you know that he's probably got

1172
01:01:06,840 --> 01:01:10,160
Speaker 1: a decently okay safe floor because he's he's pretty pro ready.

1173
01:01:10,200 --> 01:01:11,760
Speaker 1: So once he gets the job, but he doesn't have

1174
01:01:11,760 --> 01:01:13,800
Speaker 1: a lot of good weapons except for john who I

1175
01:01:13,880 --> 01:01:17,560
Speaker 1: know you love Johnny. But there there's at least five

1176
01:01:17,560 --> 01:01:19,360
Speaker 1: guys in the next round. I want more than Mac

1177
01:01:19,440 --> 01:01:22,040
Speaker 1: Jones in a one QB league. Yeah, that's I think

1178
01:01:22,080 --> 01:01:25,800
Speaker 1: that's gonna be a a situation where Cam's gonna play

1179
01:01:25,840 --> 01:01:28,720
Speaker 1: himself out of that job for very long. Mac Jones

1180
01:01:28,720 --> 01:01:31,440
Speaker 1: will be the starter and or they will do a

1181
01:01:31,520 --> 01:01:36,040
Speaker 1: risky surgery putting Cam's legs on mccork kid I like it,

1182
01:01:36,520 --> 01:01:39,400
Speaker 1: or poking with a needle tyrod style just to get

1183
01:01:39,440 --> 01:01:42,640
Speaker 1: mac Jones in. Don't do that, Kirk Cousins. No need,

1184
01:01:42,760 --> 01:01:46,160
Speaker 1: no needle poke in there. Nope, No, When we come back.

1185
01:01:46,280 --> 01:01:48,320
Speaker 1: Three tough questions? Is that gonna be one of them?

1186
01:01:48,440 --> 01:01:51,560
Speaker 1: Can't you poke? Kirk Cousins find out when we come

1187
01:01:51,560 --> 01:01:54,360
Speaker 1: back to Fantasy Football Weekly his wife, I might have

1188
01:01:54,400 --> 01:02:17,400
Speaker 1: something to say. Fantasy Football Weekly continues fault charging from

1189
01:02:17,400 --> 01:02:20,600
Speaker 1: Guillotine Leagues dot Com, Scott Fish and Matt Harrison Shock

1190
01:02:20,680 --> 01:02:24,440
Speaker 1: Fantasy dot Com. This is a game we call three

1191
01:02:24,680 --> 01:02:27,880
Speaker 1: tough questions. I will pepper my co host, with three

1192
01:02:28,000 --> 01:02:33,480
Speaker 1: tough questions. Three questions Pepper with three like three specks

1193
01:02:33,520 --> 01:02:36,280
Speaker 1: of pepper. No, it's uh, it's more I think if

1194
01:02:36,320 --> 01:02:39,080
Speaker 1: it's more like shotgun shot, you know. I think it's

1195
01:02:39,120 --> 01:02:41,680
Speaker 1: more of that kind of peppering in my mind anyway,

1196
01:02:42,000 --> 01:02:44,000
Speaker 1: maybe because I want to shoot you. That'll be up.

1197
01:02:44,120 --> 01:02:47,280
Speaker 1: It'll be for you guys to do rather than eat

1198
01:02:47,320 --> 01:02:49,840
Speaker 1: you with pepper. So you know there's that not a

1199
01:02:49,920 --> 01:02:56,720
Speaker 1: cannibal over here. Tough question number one, Well, Michael Thomas

1200
01:02:56,840 --> 01:03:01,960
Speaker 1: ever return to be a consistent number one wide receiver.

1201
01:03:02,440 --> 01:03:04,200
Speaker 1: And by number one, I only number one overall. I

1202
01:03:04,240 --> 01:03:06,520
Speaker 1: mean wide receiver one on your team, so roughly one

1203
01:03:06,520 --> 01:03:08,919
Speaker 1: of the twelve ish best wide receivers in the league.

1204
01:03:09,240 --> 01:03:12,480
Speaker 1: Will Michael Thomas Ever returned to be a consistent wide

1205
01:03:12,480 --> 01:03:17,320
Speaker 1: receiver number one. Matt I covered that, Uh, the Saints

1206
01:03:17,320 --> 01:03:19,800
Speaker 1: were one of the most run heavy teams in football

1207
01:03:19,920 --> 01:03:24,160
Speaker 1: last season exactly fifth Actually, um was that because Michael

1208
01:03:24,160 --> 01:03:26,320
Speaker 1: Thomas was injured most of the year. Was that Drew

1209
01:03:26,360 --> 01:03:29,760
Speaker 1: Brees being old? Was that Taysom Hill can't really throw?

1210
01:03:30,080 --> 01:03:32,400
Speaker 1: Was that Jamis Winston is not really that accurate. But

1211
01:03:32,480 --> 01:03:35,960
Speaker 1: here's the issue. Thomas waited to have that surgery until

1212
01:03:36,080 --> 01:03:39,040
Speaker 1: late Why did he do that, we don't really know.

1213
01:03:39,120 --> 01:03:41,120
Speaker 1: But that's not necessarily the mark of a player who's

1214
01:03:41,120 --> 01:03:43,880
Speaker 1: happy with his current team. And he's only twenty seven.

1215
01:03:44,240 --> 01:03:46,480
Speaker 1: He's got a few years of solid play left, and

1216
01:03:46,720 --> 01:03:50,600
Speaker 1: he's got a potential out on his contract after this season,

1217
01:03:50,880 --> 01:03:53,280
Speaker 1: and the Saints have been traditionally one of the teams

1218
01:03:53,360 --> 01:03:56,120
Speaker 1: that have been very cash strapped as well. So I'd

1219
01:03:56,120 --> 01:03:59,120
Speaker 1: say he will return to wide receiver one status. It'll

1220
01:03:59,160 --> 01:04:05,000
Speaker 1: be next year, and it won't be for New Orleans. Okay,

1221
01:04:06,920 --> 01:04:09,040
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna add a year to that because

1222
01:04:09,040 --> 01:04:12,480
Speaker 1: he's actually twenty eight. Um, next he's gonna miss half

1223
01:04:12,480 --> 01:04:14,480
Speaker 1: the season, So I don't think it's gonna be this year.

1224
01:04:14,560 --> 01:04:17,560
Speaker 1: You know, come back from the injury we saw last year. Um,

1225
01:04:17,640 --> 01:04:20,280
Speaker 1: so next year we're talking about twenty nine. If it's

1226
01:04:20,320 --> 01:04:22,680
Speaker 1: on a new team, there's not a very good history

1227
01:04:22,680 --> 01:04:25,280
Speaker 1: outside of like Stefon Diggs or Randy Moss point from,

1228
01:04:25,760 --> 01:04:28,240
Speaker 1: there's not a good history of a team a star

1229
01:04:28,280 --> 01:04:31,240
Speaker 1: player changing teams and then wide receivers particularly well, we'll

1230
01:04:31,280 --> 01:04:34,840
Speaker 1: see Julio especially late career, not not a good stretch

1231
01:04:34,880 --> 01:04:36,800
Speaker 1: for him. So I'm gonna go no on that, just

1232
01:04:36,840 --> 01:04:39,000
Speaker 1: because the age, if he's in New Orleans, it's gonna

1233
01:04:39,040 --> 01:04:41,400
Speaker 1: be interesting with the QP situation if he if he

1234
01:04:41,440 --> 01:04:44,120
Speaker 1: does move on, that's a bad track records. I'm going no.

1235
01:04:44,720 --> 01:04:47,200
Speaker 1: I'll add another reason why the correct answer is no.

1236
01:04:47,720 --> 01:04:52,160
Speaker 1: Soft tissue injuries. Many they when they start, it feels

1237
01:04:52,200 --> 01:04:54,920
Speaker 1: like they start piling up and they become easier and

1238
01:04:55,040 --> 01:04:58,400
Speaker 1: easier and easier to get and you know much it

1239
01:04:58,440 --> 01:05:01,000
Speaker 1: sounds ridiculous. I'd run of the A C. L injury

1240
01:05:01,000 --> 01:05:03,240
Speaker 1: to come back from right. That is a one time deal.

1241
01:05:03,360 --> 01:05:07,560
Speaker 1: The soft tissue stuff mounts and mounts. And Michael Thomas

1242
01:05:07,640 --> 01:05:12,320
Speaker 1: has made his name in fantasy through volume and reputation

1243
01:05:12,520 --> 01:05:15,960
Speaker 1: and catching balls and getting tackled. Um, I don't see

1244
01:05:15,960 --> 01:05:19,720
Speaker 1: how he avoids the soft tissue injuries continuing going forward.

1245
01:05:20,280 --> 01:05:25,840
Speaker 1: The correct answer is no. Tough question number two, considering

1246
01:05:25,840 --> 01:05:30,040
Speaker 1: the injuries to Colts guard Quentin Nelson and quarterback Carson Wentz,

1247
01:05:30,080 --> 01:05:35,080
Speaker 1: what is your level of concern for Jonathan Taylor none? Some,

1248
01:05:35,720 --> 01:05:40,560
Speaker 1: or a bowl loosening level of existential dread? We begin

1249
01:05:40,560 --> 01:05:46,040
Speaker 1: with Scott Fish. So I'm gonna I think it was

1250
01:05:46,080 --> 01:05:48,800
Speaker 1: the first time I've ever went this route on this

1251
01:05:48,800 --> 01:05:51,760
Speaker 1: show because I'm usually very optimistic on things. Yes, I'm

1252
01:05:51,760 --> 01:05:53,560
Speaker 1: going to go with the balls one. This time, you're

1253
01:05:53,600 --> 01:05:57,920
Speaker 1: taking the bowels. I'm gonna take the balls one. Welcome

1254
01:05:58,000 --> 01:06:00,959
Speaker 1: to the dark size. He's still gonna get a decent

1255
01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:03,640
Speaker 1: amount of work, and his a DP has dropped a

1256
01:06:03,680 --> 01:06:07,120
Speaker 1: good full round now because because of these issues. But

1257
01:06:07,200 --> 01:06:09,640
Speaker 1: last year when running to the opposite side of Nelson,

1258
01:06:09,720 --> 01:06:12,520
Speaker 1: he barely averaged over two yards per carry and over

1259
01:06:12,600 --> 01:06:14,720
Speaker 1: four yards like four and a half yards per carry

1260
01:06:14,760 --> 01:06:17,640
Speaker 1: to Nelson Quent Nelson's side, So he's not gonna have

1261
01:06:17,760 --> 01:06:20,440
Speaker 1: that for a bit to start the season. Uh, he

1262
01:06:20,520 --> 01:06:22,480
Speaker 1: may be one of those late season comes out just

1263
01:06:22,520 --> 01:06:25,040
Speaker 1: like he did last year. But I'm really worried about

1264
01:06:25,120 --> 01:06:28,000
Speaker 1: him early on to start the season. Okay, Matt, is

1265
01:06:28,080 --> 01:06:31,439
Speaker 1: the appropriate level of concern for Jonathan Taylor none some

1266
01:06:31,680 --> 01:06:34,680
Speaker 1: or a bowel loosening level of existential dread. When you ever,

1267
01:06:34,760 --> 01:06:39,160
Speaker 1: whenever you bring up the bowel loosening level oftential existential dread,

1268
01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:42,960
Speaker 1: that always causes a big problem in my brain. It

1269
01:06:43,120 --> 01:06:47,520
Speaker 1: damages my cerebrum, which does enables my speech, judgment and

1270
01:06:47,640 --> 01:06:52,040
Speaker 1: thinking reasoning. So I'm gonna go exact opposite of Scott

1271
01:06:52,320 --> 01:06:56,120
Speaker 1: and say there's none because I guess you can't reason,

1272
01:06:56,160 --> 01:06:59,040
Speaker 1: because I can't reason anymore. Taylor finished as RB six

1273
01:06:59,120 --> 01:07:00,920
Speaker 1: last year, really did that in the second half of the

1274
01:07:00,880 --> 01:07:03,160
Speaker 1: the years. The Colts coaching staff had him splitting carries

1275
01:07:03,160 --> 01:07:06,200
Speaker 1: with nine hines. Notable players that finished around him in

1276
01:07:06,280 --> 01:07:11,400
Speaker 1: PPR leagues David Montgomery finished fourth, James Robinson finished seventh,

1277
01:07:11,720 --> 01:07:14,920
Speaker 1: Mike Davis finished twelve. What do all those runners have

1278
01:07:14,960 --> 01:07:19,320
Speaker 1: in common? Bad offensive lines and poor quarterback play last year?

1279
01:07:19,480 --> 01:07:21,480
Speaker 1: And yeah, Quentin Nelson is a big loss, but he

1280
01:07:21,480 --> 01:07:23,280
Speaker 1: could only be gone for maybe a month. He might

1281
01:07:23,280 --> 01:07:25,840
Speaker 1: be back by the end of September. The Colts were

1282
01:07:25,840 --> 01:07:29,160
Speaker 1: still ranked as Pro Football Focuses number two offensive line

1283
01:07:29,200 --> 01:07:32,400
Speaker 1: coming into camp. There's there's not really any concern for me.

1284
01:07:32,480 --> 01:07:34,720
Speaker 1: I'm fine drafting him in the first round. Still, well,

1285
01:07:34,880 --> 01:07:36,840
Speaker 1: so you guys stick the two extremes and the correct

1286
01:07:36,880 --> 01:07:40,720
Speaker 1: answer is right between there. Honestly, that is what it

1287
01:07:40,720 --> 01:07:43,240
Speaker 1: should be. I just felt like going with the bas

1288
01:07:43,640 --> 01:07:48,280
Speaker 1: like that working and I have no reasoning never did

1289
01:07:48,360 --> 01:07:52,040
Speaker 1: working against Jonathan Taylor. If Wentz doesn't come back until October,

1290
01:07:52,440 --> 01:07:56,120
Speaker 1: you can't roll into any Sunday and feel good about

1291
01:07:56,120 --> 01:07:58,000
Speaker 1: what he might do. You can't your your level of

1292
01:07:58,040 --> 01:08:00,000
Speaker 1: confidence in any game is going to be low. Every

1293
01:08:00,040 --> 01:08:03,520
Speaker 1: defense will play to stop Jonathan Taylor and make Jacob

1294
01:08:03,520 --> 01:08:06,440
Speaker 1: Eason not related Tony beat them, and that's probably not

1295
01:08:06,480 --> 01:08:09,880
Speaker 1: gonna happen very often. Then, yet in the unknown status

1296
01:08:09,960 --> 01:08:13,280
Speaker 1: to his best offensive lineman, and you need You also

1297
01:08:13,360 --> 01:08:15,840
Speaker 1: have to buy into this notion that frank Reich is

1298
01:08:15,880 --> 01:08:21,000
Speaker 1: suddenly not a running back by committee coach. We have

1299
01:08:21,160 --> 01:08:24,880
Speaker 1: a career with Frank Reich that tells us he is

1300
01:08:24,920 --> 01:08:27,960
Speaker 1: a running back by committee coach. And yes, at the

1301
01:08:28,080 --> 01:08:31,400
Speaker 1: end of the year, he powered Jonathan Taylor at the

1302
01:08:31,479 --> 01:08:33,880
Speaker 1: end of the year when they needed every win to

1303
01:08:33,920 --> 01:08:37,160
Speaker 1: get into the playoffs. At that point, he felt like,

1304
01:08:37,200 --> 01:08:40,040
Speaker 1: why not grind up. Jonathan Taylor, you have nothing to lose.

1305
01:08:40,360 --> 01:08:43,400
Speaker 1: And mind you, he didn't have hidn't have Mac, didn't

1306
01:08:43,439 --> 01:08:46,599
Speaker 1: have Mac. Now he does. Marlon Mack is back. Um,

1307
01:08:46,640 --> 01:08:48,160
Speaker 1: you know, there is some good things for Taylor and

1308
01:08:48,160 --> 01:08:50,479
Speaker 1: this is why it's the answer is some He is good.

1309
01:08:50,680 --> 01:08:53,200
Speaker 1: The offensive line is still pretty good even without Quentin Nelson,

1310
01:08:53,320 --> 01:08:57,559
Speaker 1: and maybe maybe Carson Wentz only misses a handful of games.

1311
01:08:58,000 --> 01:09:02,240
Speaker 1: But even so this is a tough spot. At least

1312
01:09:02,240 --> 01:09:04,800
Speaker 1: Wentz and Nelson Taylor have the same injury and they

1313
01:09:04,800 --> 01:09:07,280
Speaker 1: can rehab together. Isn't that sweet, isn't it? Yeah? You

1314
01:09:07,320 --> 01:09:10,400
Speaker 1: know what they know what they should do? Three legged race.

1315
01:09:11,200 --> 01:09:13,120
Speaker 1: They would be perfect in the three legged race. They

1316
01:09:13,120 --> 01:09:16,439
Speaker 1: could put their injured feet in the sack. That's what

1317
01:09:16,479 --> 01:09:20,559
Speaker 1: they should do. Tough question number three, Which tight end

1318
01:09:20,600 --> 01:09:24,439
Speaker 1: should go first? Darren Waller or George Kittle? And I'll

1319
01:09:24,479 --> 01:09:27,040
Speaker 1: know two listeners. They are currently separated by four picks

1320
01:09:27,040 --> 01:09:29,760
Speaker 1: an average draft position, so it's very tight white right here,

1321
01:09:30,160 --> 01:09:34,080
Speaker 1: which should go first? We begin with Matt I wavered

1322
01:09:34,120 --> 01:09:36,040
Speaker 1: back and forth on this one a little bit, and

1323
01:09:36,120 --> 01:09:39,000
Speaker 1: I've I've actually drafted Waller a few times above Kittle

1324
01:09:39,120 --> 01:09:41,320
Speaker 1: in in some of my best ball draft so far

1325
01:09:41,360 --> 01:09:44,000
Speaker 1: this year. But I'm gonna go Kittle. And here's why.

1326
01:09:44,840 --> 01:09:47,120
Speaker 1: The Raiders have one of the worst offensive lines in

1327
01:09:47,160 --> 01:09:50,320
Speaker 1: the NFL and was actually significantly better last year. And

1328
01:09:50,360 --> 01:09:52,720
Speaker 1: the Niners have one of the best offensive lines in

1329
01:09:52,720 --> 01:09:55,320
Speaker 1: the league and it improved with the addition of Alex

1330
01:09:55,400 --> 01:09:59,000
Speaker 1: mac Plus the forty Niners have a better quarterback situation,

1331
01:09:59,240 --> 01:10:02,839
Speaker 1: a better off punts of coach, seemingly better weapons surrounding

1332
01:10:02,880 --> 01:10:05,920
Speaker 1: their tight ends. And what's good for the offense is

1333
01:10:05,960 --> 01:10:07,880
Speaker 1: good for the offense. And now Waller is gonna go

1334
01:10:07,960 --> 01:10:10,800
Speaker 1: first in drafts. Everyone will replay last year and how

1335
01:10:10,840 --> 01:10:12,800
Speaker 1: awesome he was down the stretch while Kittle spent a

1336
01:10:12,840 --> 01:10:15,799
Speaker 1: ton of time injured. I'll spend a few fewer bucks

1337
01:10:15,840 --> 01:10:19,080
Speaker 1: in my auction and get Kittle and uh gets similar,

1338
01:10:19,120 --> 01:10:22,400
Speaker 1: if not better results than Waller. Okay, Scott, who shop?

1339
01:10:22,520 --> 01:10:24,439
Speaker 1: And I know I know how you feel about you

1340
01:10:24,520 --> 01:10:27,639
Speaker 1: look both of these players. This question is really It's

1341
01:10:27,640 --> 01:10:30,920
Speaker 1: called three tough questions for a reason. I'm gonna I'm

1342
01:10:30,960 --> 01:10:33,479
Speaker 1: going right at your heart on this. Which tight end

1343
01:10:33,520 --> 01:10:36,640
Speaker 1: should go first? Waller or Kittle? Yeah? This, this this

1344
01:10:36,720 --> 01:10:39,000
Speaker 1: sucks because I was I was early on the Kiddle

1345
01:10:39,760 --> 01:10:45,040
Speaker 1: love kt um past tense. I noticed I still I

1346
01:10:45,080 --> 01:10:48,360
Speaker 1: still absolutely love George Kittle, But if I just have

1347
01:10:48,439 --> 01:10:51,200
Speaker 1: to take one or the other, I'm taking Darren Waller.

1348
01:10:51,240 --> 01:10:52,920
Speaker 1: He's going to be the number one or number two

1349
01:10:53,000 --> 01:10:55,519
Speaker 1: target getter. I I have a hard time believing he'll

1350
01:10:55,560 --> 01:10:57,960
Speaker 1: even be number two. He'll be the number one target

1351
01:10:58,000 --> 01:11:01,639
Speaker 1: getter for car He's gonna be cars security blanket. Um.

1352
01:11:01,880 --> 01:11:04,360
Speaker 1: When you're the number one receiving option on your team,

1353
01:11:04,400 --> 01:11:06,519
Speaker 1: you're just you're just gonna get a whole lot more

1354
01:11:06,560 --> 01:11:11,080
Speaker 1: options for the forty Niners. They love to run. They

1355
01:11:11,160 --> 01:11:14,559
Speaker 1: might have a quarterback change. Kitto keeps getting injured each year,

1356
01:11:14,600 --> 01:11:17,200
Speaker 1: which it sucks, but it is what it is. Uh.

1357
01:11:17,240 --> 01:11:19,959
Speaker 1: They have some up and coming, really good other receiving

1358
01:11:20,000 --> 01:11:22,679
Speaker 1: options on that team. I just I just think Waller

1359
01:11:22,720 --> 01:11:25,400
Speaker 1: is in a much better position to shine, much safer position.

1360
01:11:25,560 --> 01:11:28,519
Speaker 1: Darren Waller led the NFL in targets among tight ends

1361
01:11:28,600 --> 01:11:30,640
Speaker 1: last year, and it was near the top even if

1362
01:11:30,640 --> 01:11:33,240
Speaker 1: when you include wide receivers and the forty Niners do

1363
01:11:33,400 --> 01:11:36,320
Speaker 1: is much better, which you know they might not need

1364
01:11:36,360 --> 01:11:39,479
Speaker 1: to pass as much. Well. When Kyle, when Kyle Chanhan,

1365
01:11:39,680 --> 01:11:42,679
Speaker 1: what can run when he's got a healthy, effective runner.

1366
01:11:42,760 --> 01:11:46,679
Speaker 1: He does. Yeah, and the Super Bowl year, great defense

1367
01:11:46,800 --> 01:11:49,160
Speaker 1: did not pass as much. You saw the playoffs didn't.

1368
01:11:49,160 --> 01:11:50,880
Speaker 1: It was as a Viking fan I did see that

1369
01:11:50,880 --> 01:11:54,120
Speaker 1: out that playoff us the Titan, that Hill should go first.

1370
01:11:54,160 --> 01:11:57,160
Speaker 1: Although I'll be honest, Matt swayed me more than I

1371
01:11:57,200 --> 01:11:59,560
Speaker 1: thought I would be, So look at that as The

1372
01:11:59,600 --> 01:12:03,320
Speaker 1: correct answer is Darren Waller. For the reasons you've already mentioned, Uh,

1373
01:12:03,439 --> 01:12:06,760
Speaker 1: Kittle less compete for passes with other excellent receivers, and

1374
01:12:07,320 --> 01:12:09,760
Speaker 1: Kittle does have the history of injury. But you know

1375
01:12:10,080 --> 01:12:13,360
Speaker 1: convenient that he has to compete for passes when he's

1376
01:12:13,360 --> 01:12:17,000
Speaker 1: got a good offense. But some other times it's like, oh,

1377
01:12:17,040 --> 01:12:20,280
Speaker 1: he's got good wide receivers around him. The correct answer

1378
01:12:20,360 --> 01:12:24,519
Speaker 1: is Darren Waller. Now what you didn't know was coming.

1379
01:12:24,720 --> 01:12:33,880
Speaker 1: Tough question, A bonus tough question. Drafters who take all

1380
01:12:33,920 --> 01:12:36,920
Speaker 1: of their allotted time in a slow draft. They play

1381
01:12:36,960 --> 01:12:39,439
Speaker 1: out like every minute of it in a slow draft

1382
01:12:39,600 --> 01:12:43,960
Speaker 1: online slow draft, just in case something might happen, like

1383
01:12:44,360 --> 01:12:46,559
Speaker 1: maybe I'll get a trade offer, or maybe they'll be

1384
01:12:46,600 --> 01:12:48,960
Speaker 1: like some injury thing that I could capitalize on. I'm

1385
01:12:48,960 --> 01:12:52,639
Speaker 1: gonna play milk it all out every last minute. Are

1386
01:12:52,720 --> 01:13:00,160
Speaker 1: they a ass hats, b ultra ass hats or see

1387
01:13:00,200 --> 01:13:05,240
Speaker 1: the quintessential ass hat in the history of assets. Man Scott,

1388
01:13:06,640 --> 01:13:11,240
Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna just go with the first one. Um,

1389
01:13:11,640 --> 01:13:14,200
Speaker 1: but I can see all the arguments. It's good strategy,

1390
01:13:14,240 --> 01:13:20,000
Speaker 1: but it's also really really hard on a league. Players.

1391
01:13:20,200 --> 01:13:24,240
Speaker 1: You do that hurts the league is not good. Um,

1392
01:13:24,280 --> 01:13:26,840
Speaker 1: technically that's the rule. They have their time, they can

1393
01:13:26,840 --> 01:13:30,400
Speaker 1: do at that time whatever they want, but it's it's

1394
01:13:30,439 --> 01:13:32,560
Speaker 1: just not not very nice. I'm just gonna I'm just

1395
01:13:32,600 --> 01:13:34,719
Speaker 1: gonna go with the first one. But I can understand

1396
01:13:34,760 --> 01:13:38,280
Speaker 1: any of these. It's annoying. But if it's really bugging you,

1397
01:13:38,320 --> 01:13:41,000
Speaker 1: why are you in a league that has a slow

1398
01:13:41,160 --> 01:13:44,280
Speaker 1: draft element to it, then why don't we speed up

1399
01:13:44,320 --> 01:13:46,519
Speaker 1: the element of your league? If it's if it's ruining

1400
01:13:46,560 --> 01:13:50,280
Speaker 1: your league, who you're going to take? Yeah, take your guy. Okay,

1401
01:13:51,560 --> 01:13:54,640
Speaker 1: that's not hard. You got you gotta loven other teammates

1402
01:13:54,640 --> 01:13:56,559
Speaker 1: that are waiting for you to make your damn pick.

1403
01:13:57,560 --> 01:14:01,639
Speaker 1: Go make your pickle get let's keep this draft moving.

1404
01:14:01,840 --> 01:14:04,200
Speaker 1: I think that you just wanted to say ass hat

1405
01:14:04,320 --> 01:14:09,120
Speaker 1: several times. Answer was a B and c all of

1406
01:14:09,200 --> 01:14:15,240
Speaker 1: the above. I worked very hard not to um. I

1407
01:14:15,320 --> 01:14:20,240
Speaker 1: thought about a making it a series of more vulgar words.

1408
01:14:20,479 --> 01:14:23,040
Speaker 1: We'll just stick with ass hat, because that's what you

1409
01:14:23,080 --> 01:14:26,040
Speaker 1: are when you take every minute of your allotted time

1410
01:14:26,040 --> 01:14:28,800
Speaker 1: in a slow draft. When we come back, what to

1411
01:14:28,920 --> 01:14:31,920
Speaker 1: do with that new extra week on your schedule, and

1412

Speaker 1: out our three sleepers of the week. We'll do that

1420
01:15:21,840 --> 01:15:24,640
Speaker 1: in just a moment. But first, Commissioners have got this

1421
01:15:24,680 --> 01:15:28,200
Speaker 1: new extra week in the schedule. And while you could

1422
01:15:28,600 --> 01:15:33,599
Speaker 1: just have another week scheduled, teams whatever, I like having

1423
01:15:33,640 --> 01:15:36,920
Speaker 1: some fun with this new extra week, and so I've

1424
01:15:36,920 --> 01:15:39,200
Speaker 1: got some ideas I know you guys have to about

1425
01:15:39,280 --> 01:15:41,960
Speaker 1: what to do with this new extra week that we've

1426
01:15:42,000 --> 01:15:43,920
Speaker 1: we've all got. Now, I think we all agree that

1427
01:15:44,000 --> 01:15:47,959
Speaker 1: we're not playing week because you shouldn't be playing deciding

1428
01:15:47,960 --> 01:15:50,920
Speaker 1: your fantasy championship in a week in which the best

1429
01:15:50,920 --> 01:15:54,040
Speaker 1: players aren't playing. And we're just backing up our three

1430
01:15:54,080 --> 01:15:56,320
Speaker 1: weeks of playoffs, and so you know, we're not really

1431
01:15:56,360 --> 01:15:58,439
Speaker 1: changing the playoff format, just the weeks they come in

1432
01:15:58,479 --> 01:15:59,920
Speaker 1: and you've got this extra week and it might be

1433
01:16:00,040 --> 01:16:03,200
Speaker 1: now like Week fourteen, which used to be the start

1434
01:16:03,240 --> 01:16:05,280
Speaker 1: of the playoffs, so now it's this new week fourteen.

1435
01:16:06,080 --> 01:16:09,240
Speaker 1: What are some fun things that people can do in

1436
01:16:09,760 --> 01:16:12,760
Speaker 1: week fourteen with this new extra week. You know, the

1437
01:16:13,240 --> 01:16:16,040
Speaker 1: options where there are so many more options. Before the

1438
01:16:16,120 --> 01:16:18,439
Speaker 1: NFL said hey we're gonna throw by weeks in the

1439
01:16:18,479 --> 01:16:21,880
Speaker 1: week thirteen and week fourteen, that that really limited what

1440
01:16:21,960 --> 01:16:24,280
Speaker 1: you can do with the playoffs. Uh, I think most

1441
01:16:24,320 --> 01:16:26,200
Speaker 1: people are just gonna go to the fourteen game season

1442
01:16:26,240 --> 01:16:29,080
Speaker 1: with playoffs in weeks fifteen and seventeen. There's a few

1443
01:16:29,080 --> 01:16:31,040
Speaker 1: other things you could do. I guess, um, if you're

1444
01:16:31,040 --> 01:16:34,559
Speaker 1: a twelve team league, you could play in eleven game season.

1445
01:16:34,800 --> 01:16:37,600
Speaker 1: It's a shorter season, but you play every team exactly

1446
01:16:37,720 --> 01:16:40,439
Speaker 1: once and then go with doubleheaders for each of your

1447
01:16:40,439 --> 01:16:45,320
Speaker 1: playoff weeks. Do a doubleheader in a playoff week. Well

1448
01:16:45,360 --> 01:16:47,559
Speaker 1: there there there are sites that allow you to set

1449
01:16:47,600 --> 01:16:49,760
Speaker 1: it up that way, like ESPN does that NFL does,

1450
01:16:49,960 --> 01:16:52,960
Speaker 1: But like basically, weeks twelve and thirteen is week one

1451
01:16:52,960 --> 01:16:55,800
Speaker 1: of the playoffs for you. Week fourteen and fifteen is

1452
01:16:55,800 --> 01:16:58,519
Speaker 1: a week two, and Week sixteen and seventeen is the

1453
01:16:58,600 --> 01:17:02,559
Speaker 1: championship game. That combines score so that eliminates some of

1454
01:17:02,600 --> 01:17:05,479
Speaker 1: the luck from a one week matchup, and you can

1455
01:17:05,560 --> 01:17:08,000
Speaker 1: you know, have trash talk in between the two weeks,

1456
01:17:08,240 --> 01:17:11,639
Speaker 1: which is fun. I like the luck because you know,

1457
01:17:11,680 --> 01:17:13,479
Speaker 1: it's just it's just part of what you know, if

1458
01:17:13,520 --> 01:17:17,240
Speaker 1: you if if chalk always wins, why watch sports? Right,

1459
01:17:17,600 --> 01:17:20,880
Speaker 1: if the better team always wins, we wouldn't watch. Part

1460
01:17:20,920 --> 01:17:26,000
Speaker 1: of what makes sports compelling is underdogs, overachieving and watching

1461
01:17:26,320 --> 01:17:30,719
Speaker 1: great teams lose. That's what makes sports captivating, and fantasy

1462
01:17:30,760 --> 01:17:34,080
Speaker 1: football is no different. Okay, uh yeah, I know you

1463
01:17:34,160 --> 01:17:36,760
Speaker 1: like that. We've talked about that before. Just just some

1464
01:17:36,800 --> 01:17:38,880
Speaker 1: people like to remove as much luck as possible and

1465
01:17:39,000 --> 01:17:40,600
Speaker 1: have a skilled teams wins. Yeah. Well I have a

1466
01:17:40,600 --> 01:17:43,080
Speaker 1: playoff system. Don't even have a playoff system, just use

1467
01:17:43,080 --> 01:17:45,639
Speaker 1: points scored for sec. You know, to me, that's not fun.

1468
01:17:46,439 --> 01:17:48,200
Speaker 1: I like, I'll give you another I'll give you my idea,

1469
01:17:48,360 --> 01:17:53,160
Speaker 1: and then you can poop the rivalry reek Rivalry Week.

1470
01:17:53,760 --> 01:17:59,040
Speaker 1: Why were we weak? Uh? In rivalry Week, you find

1471
01:17:59,160 --> 01:18:02,519
Speaker 1: in your league, for whatever reason, players that have a

1472
01:18:02,600 --> 01:18:07,080
Speaker 1: built in rivalry with each other. Could be um brothers

1473
01:18:07,160 --> 01:18:08,880
Speaker 1: in the league, right, so we're gonna put them against

1474
01:18:08,920 --> 01:18:11,479
Speaker 1: each other. Bernie and Dave Calture, you're gonna play against

1475
01:18:11,479 --> 01:18:14,639
Speaker 1: each other. Or it could be the guy who knocked

1476
01:18:14,680 --> 01:18:17,240
Speaker 1: you out last year, right, and you know that was

1477
01:18:17,240 --> 01:18:18,800
Speaker 1: the guy who knocked you out of the playoffs. We're

1478
01:18:18,800 --> 01:18:21,000
Speaker 1: gonna put those back together. I think in most leagues,

1479
01:18:21,080 --> 01:18:24,400
Speaker 1: established leagues, you can find a reason to find rivals

1480
01:18:24,680 --> 01:18:26,960
Speaker 1: in most of your league and set those guys up

1481
01:18:27,000 --> 01:18:31,360
Speaker 1: to play in rivalry Week. So I love rivalries. I've

1482
01:18:31,360 --> 01:18:34,759
Speaker 1: done him almost my entire fantasy career. Really, my home league,

1483
01:18:34,960 --> 01:18:37,040
Speaker 1: we have five it's a ten team. We we have

1484
01:18:37,120 --> 01:18:40,160
Speaker 1: five rivalry trophies, and at the draft, we also draft

1485
01:18:40,200 --> 01:18:43,240
Speaker 1: our rival for the season. What do you mean explain this?

1486
01:18:43,800 --> 01:18:47,960
Speaker 1: You draft a rival, like, so I draft you? Yeah? Okay,

1487
01:18:48,000 --> 01:18:49,599
Speaker 1: yeah you can draft so wait do I still get

1488
01:18:49,600 --> 01:18:51,720
Speaker 1: my draft pick? Oh? Yeah, yeah, No, this is a

1489
01:18:51,760 --> 01:18:56,000
Speaker 1: second draft, okay, second draft of rivals. You draft drivals,

1490
01:18:56,000 --> 01:18:59,320
Speaker 1: like if you draft me, Let's see, the people who

1491
01:18:59,400 --> 01:19:01,519
Speaker 1: won the rive re game last year are the ones

1492
01:19:01,600 --> 01:19:04,759
Speaker 1: game drafted the losers from the previous year do the drafting.

1493
01:19:04,840 --> 01:19:07,519
Speaker 1: So you lost last year, of course, checking me and

1494
01:19:07,600 --> 01:19:10,280
Speaker 1: I'm holding. And our trophies are like the Scotch Trophy,

1495
01:19:10,360 --> 01:19:14,479
Speaker 1: the duct Tape Trophy, the die Hard Trophy. So we

1496
01:19:14,560 --> 01:19:17,439
Speaker 1: have trophies for those rivalry games. And in a season

1497
01:19:17,479 --> 01:19:19,840
Speaker 1: like this, you can keep your thirteen game season that

1498
01:19:19,880 --> 01:19:21,760
Speaker 1: you had last year with the three weeks of playoffs

1499
01:19:21,800 --> 01:19:23,840
Speaker 1: and do week one or two or three or four

1500
01:19:23,920 --> 01:19:25,519
Speaker 1: one of the ones or five one one of the

1501
01:19:25,520 --> 01:19:27,760
Speaker 1: one of the ones with no boys. But Week one

1502
01:19:27,800 --> 01:19:29,600
Speaker 1: is a cool way to do it. Um, and you

1503
01:19:29,600 --> 01:19:31,960
Speaker 1: can have that rival we were there and keep your

1504
01:19:31,960 --> 01:19:34,960
Speaker 1: regular season the way it was. But um yeah, that's

1505
01:19:35,040 --> 01:19:37,599
Speaker 1: We draft drivals every year. When I thought I had

1506
01:19:37,600 --> 01:19:41,280
Speaker 1: heard of like every drafting variation, I've never heard of

1507
01:19:41,439 --> 01:19:44,719
Speaker 1: drafting your rival. Oh yeah, my pigs leagues draft rivals

1508
01:19:44,720 --> 01:19:46,840
Speaker 1: every year. We have rivalry trophies and you actually have

1509
01:19:46,880 --> 01:19:49,120
Speaker 1: to send the loser has to send the winner ten

1510
01:19:49,120 --> 01:19:53,840
Speaker 1: bucks if you lose the rivalry. Okay, Um, how about

1511
01:19:53,840 --> 01:19:59,800
Speaker 1: this play in week just before the playoffs? So those

1512
01:19:59,840 --> 01:20:03,120
Speaker 1: the excellent alright, So the teams that are jostling for

1513
01:20:03,120 --> 01:20:05,840
Speaker 1: playoffs spots face each other as you effectively have a

1514
01:20:05,960 --> 01:20:08,360
Speaker 1: play in week, and some of the teams are going

1515
01:20:08,400 --> 01:20:09,479
Speaker 1: to be out of it and they can just play

1516
01:20:09,520 --> 01:20:11,240
Speaker 1: each other whatever, it doesn't matter. But you want to

1517
01:20:11,280 --> 01:20:13,400
Speaker 1: find these teams that are playing to get into the

1518
01:20:13,400 --> 01:20:16,000
Speaker 1: playoffs and set them up so you you know, you

1519
01:20:16,000 --> 01:20:17,960
Speaker 1: won't have a set schedule. You're not gonna know until

1520
01:20:17,960 --> 01:20:20,479
Speaker 1: you till we week thirteen is over, and then use

1521
01:20:20,520 --> 01:20:25,759
Speaker 1: fourteen as your playing week. Okay, So this is similar

1522
01:20:25,800 --> 01:20:28,000
Speaker 1: to that, and I think this actually came from one

1523
01:20:28,040 --> 01:20:30,800
Speaker 1: of our listeners of my My Commission Impossible podcast when

1524
01:20:30,840 --> 01:20:34,000
Speaker 1: we went over this. But having that last week before

1525
01:20:34,040 --> 01:20:37,439
Speaker 1: the playoffs be an all play and so you can

1526
01:20:37,520 --> 01:20:40,920
Speaker 1: rack up x amount of wins in that week. So

1527
01:20:41,000 --> 01:20:43,479
Speaker 1: that way, even if you have you can rack you

1528
01:20:43,520 --> 01:20:47,240
Speaker 1: could Yeah, you you have a bad in twelve team,

1529
01:20:47,280 --> 01:20:49,880
Speaker 1: I could get eleven wins that week. You're you're You're

1530
01:20:49,880 --> 01:20:53,080
Speaker 1: not You're not taking because and and I believe I

1531
01:20:53,120 --> 01:20:55,639
Speaker 1: believe the league he set up was double headers throughout

1532
01:20:55,720 --> 01:20:58,960
Speaker 1: so like that mitigated a little bit. Yeah, but but

1533
01:20:59,080 --> 01:21:00,599
Speaker 1: you could you could make a rule where you get

1534
01:21:00,600 --> 01:21:02,479
Speaker 1: a half a win for each you know, for each

1535
01:21:02,479 --> 01:21:05,000
Speaker 1: team you better beat or whatever. But that allows it

1536
01:21:05,080 --> 01:21:07,400
Speaker 1: for the teams that are at the bottom to be like, oh,

1537
01:21:07,479 --> 01:21:09,479
Speaker 1: maybe I have a shot to make a comeback, you know,

1538
01:21:09,560 --> 01:21:11,320
Speaker 1: here strong in the second half of the season. So

1539
01:21:11,400 --> 01:21:13,800
Speaker 1: having that play and we'd be an all play where

1540
01:21:13,800 --> 01:21:16,360
Speaker 1: you can rack up some extra wins and maybe affect

1541
01:21:16,360 --> 01:21:18,760
Speaker 1: the seeding, it's better for the teams that are coming

1542
01:21:18,760 --> 01:21:20,559
Speaker 1: on strong at the end of the year. I've got

1543
01:21:20,600 --> 01:21:22,880
Speaker 1: one more idea for what to do with that new

1544
01:21:22,920 --> 01:21:27,640
Speaker 1: extra week in your fantasy schedule. Play for steaks and

1545
01:21:27,680 --> 01:21:33,240
Speaker 1: here's actual steak many stakes ship home now play for steaks.

1546
01:21:33,680 --> 01:21:38,599
Speaker 1: The winners get to rename the loser's team and it's

1547
01:21:38,680 --> 01:21:42,759
Speaker 1: changed their logo for that week. So I'm playing Scott.

1548
01:21:42,880 --> 01:21:45,160
Speaker 1: I beat Scott, I get to rename his team, change

1549
01:21:45,160 --> 01:21:49,919
Speaker 1: his logo. Now, your league, depending on you know, depending

1550
01:21:49,920 --> 01:21:52,240
Speaker 1: on how your league feels about things, you that could

1551
01:21:52,280 --> 01:21:54,200
Speaker 1: go a lot of ways. You got it, you know,

1552
01:21:54,240 --> 01:21:55,639
Speaker 1: you may have to be you know, you've been able

1553
01:21:55,640 --> 01:21:57,720
Speaker 1: thoughtful about how you're going to use that but I

1554
01:21:57,760 --> 01:22:00,280
Speaker 1: think that to me, that is a potentially a ton

1555
01:22:00,280 --> 01:22:03,360
Speaker 1: of fun. Uh. The one thing we do have to

1556
01:22:03,439 --> 01:22:05,880
Speaker 1: keep in mind is Week fourteen does have buy, so you,

1557
01:22:06,240 --> 01:22:07,559
Speaker 1: I mean a lot of leagues might want to do

1558
01:22:07,600 --> 01:22:09,800
Speaker 1: one of these fun weeks in like say week five,

1559
01:22:09,920 --> 01:22:12,519
Speaker 1: essentially one weeks one through five you can play for

1560
01:22:12,560 --> 01:22:15,000
Speaker 1: stakes when everything because there's really nothing you know, in

1561
01:22:15,000 --> 01:22:17,439
Speaker 1: this case changing logo and team name, we're just having

1562
01:22:17,439 --> 01:22:19,400
Speaker 1: fund at somebody else's expense. I think one of the

1563
01:22:19,400 --> 01:22:22,599
Speaker 1: important things that we should mention that leagues should start

1564
01:22:22,680 --> 01:22:26,480
Speaker 1: their playoffs in week fifteen this year, not Week fourteen

1565
01:22:26,520 --> 01:22:29,880
Speaker 1: where the Eagles, called Dolphins, and Patriots are on buy.

1566
01:22:31,680 --> 01:22:36,000
Speaker 1: So you should definitely plan fifteen, sixteen, seventeen as your

1567
01:22:36,080 --> 01:22:39,200
Speaker 1: playoff weeks this next year if those buys aren't in

1568
01:22:39,240 --> 01:22:41,280
Speaker 1: Week four teen, Just to throw it out there, you

1569
01:22:41,320 --> 01:22:44,000
Speaker 1: can play your your thirteen game schedule in your thirteen

1570
01:22:44,000 --> 01:22:46,640
Speaker 1: week season and take out the luck of the championship

1571
01:22:46,720 --> 01:22:49,639
Speaker 1: game and have it be two weeks. I'm just kidding,

1572
01:22:49,640 --> 01:22:52,840
Speaker 1: all right, Let's go to our three sleepers. Um. These

1573
01:22:52,920 --> 01:22:56,920
Speaker 1: are players that are going in roughly double digit rounds

1574
01:22:56,920 --> 01:23:00,400
Speaker 1: of a DP average raft positions in tenth round or lower,

1575
01:23:00,479 --> 01:23:05,639
Speaker 1: but should be able to significantly outproduce that spot. Matt,

1576
01:23:05,680 --> 01:23:07,880
Speaker 1: I will begin with you. Yeah, my guy's going in

1577
01:23:07,920 --> 01:23:10,280
Speaker 1: the twelfth round in most drafts right now. And it's

1578
01:23:10,320 --> 01:23:12,719
Speaker 1: a guy that you may know and may have drafted

1579
01:23:12,720 --> 01:23:15,800
Speaker 1: one one overall at one point in your fantasy career,

1580
01:23:15,840 --> 01:23:19,920
Speaker 1: and that's David Johnson. Uh. He averaged fifteen touches per

1581
01:23:19,960 --> 01:23:22,559
Speaker 1: game last season. Yeah, he was dinged up again last year,

1582
01:23:22,760 --> 01:23:25,960
Speaker 1: missed four games due to injury, but still finished as

1583
01:23:26,040 --> 01:23:29,719
Speaker 1: running back twenty one in PPR leagues, which is shocking

1584
01:23:29,800 --> 01:23:32,559
Speaker 1: in retrospect. Yeah, it's kind of it's he He's an

1585
01:23:32,640 --> 01:23:35,080
Speaker 1: RB two on most rosters, and you can get him

1586
01:23:35,080 --> 01:23:37,840
Speaker 1: as the in the twelfth round of your of your

1587
01:23:37,880 --> 01:23:40,840
Speaker 1: drafts right now. Positive run rate of eighty five point

1588
01:23:40,880 --> 01:23:44,880
Speaker 1: seven percent, a robust a dot of three point one

1589
01:23:45,000 --> 01:23:48,280
Speaker 1: yards in the for a running back. At least um

1590
01:23:49,600 --> 01:23:52,519
Speaker 1: of Houston's red zone touches went to David Johnson last

1591
01:23:52,600 --> 01:23:55,200
Speaker 1: year inside the five. He converted six of his fifteen

1592
01:23:55,200 --> 01:23:58,120
Speaker 1: touches for touchdowns. That's not great, I'll be honest, but

1593
01:23:58,160 --> 01:24:01,320
Speaker 1: the fact that he got fifteen touches is pretty good. Yeah. Well,

1594
01:24:01,320 --> 01:24:04,560
Speaker 1: it's the team's overall fifteen touches per game over a

1595
01:24:04,640 --> 01:24:07,679
Speaker 1: seven team game schedule is two hundred fifty five touches.

1596
01:24:08,360 --> 01:24:11,000
Speaker 1: In the two seasons where David Johnson has had just

1597
01:24:11,160 --> 01:24:15,880
Speaker 1: two hundred touches, he's finished as RB one and RB nine.

1598
01:24:16,320 --> 01:24:20,240
Speaker 1: That ain't happening this year. He can get two. You

1599
01:24:20,280 --> 01:24:22,240
Speaker 1: can get to two under touches, and that means that

1600
01:24:22,320 --> 01:24:25,360
Speaker 1: he's going to be a viable fantasy starter or at

1601
01:24:25,439 --> 01:24:27,800
Speaker 1: least a flex play for you in any given week.

1602
01:24:27,840 --> 01:24:30,160
Speaker 1: We have a new coaching staff. We don't know for

1603
01:24:30,200 --> 01:24:33,200
Speaker 1: sure how that Houston running back committee is going to

1604
01:24:33,280 --> 01:24:36,280
Speaker 1: end up working out mark Ingraham, Philip Lindsay, David Johnson.

1605
01:24:36,520 --> 01:24:39,479
Speaker 1: Presumption is that that Johnson will get most of the work. Well,

1606
01:24:39,560 --> 01:24:41,519
Speaker 1: Johnson is going to get all the pass catching work

1607
01:24:41,560 --> 01:24:45,479
Speaker 1: because Philip Lindsay had seven catches last year, mark Ingram

1608
01:24:45,560 --> 01:24:49,639
Speaker 1: had six catches last year. David Johnson's the past catching

1609
01:24:50,120 --> 01:24:53,000
Speaker 1: running back on that roster and probably RB one. Yeah,

1610
01:24:53,040 --> 01:24:56,240
Speaker 1: on on on PPR alone, David Johnson should go before

1611
01:24:56,320 --> 01:24:58,680
Speaker 1: round twelve. Yeah, I like it. Scott. Who is your

1612
01:24:58,680 --> 01:25:01,160
Speaker 1: sleeper this week? So I I'm going with guy that's

1613
01:25:01,200 --> 01:25:03,840
Speaker 1: being drafted in the mid thirteenth and I feel like

1614
01:25:03,960 --> 01:25:06,240
Speaker 1: it's it's weird were running these fantasy circles. So he

1615
01:25:06,280 --> 01:25:08,040
Speaker 1: doesn't feel like a super sleeper, but to a lot

1616
01:25:08,080 --> 01:25:10,839
Speaker 1: of people, he's still a sleeper. And it's Adam Troutman

1617
01:25:11,160 --> 01:25:14,639
Speaker 1: tight end New Orleans Saints Jamis Winston. If he becomes

1618
01:25:14,640 --> 01:25:18,040
Speaker 1: the quarterback, he like something like a quarter or a

1619
01:25:18,120 --> 01:25:22,160
Speaker 1: third of his career touchdown passes there to tight ends. Yeah,

1620
01:25:22,280 --> 01:25:24,760
Speaker 1: and and uh New Orleans over the last couple of

1621
01:25:24,840 --> 01:25:27,360
Speaker 1: years have thrown over twenty touchdown passes to tight ends

1622
01:25:27,680 --> 01:25:31,160
Speaker 1: at Pete Prisco of CBS mentioned to Jamie Eisenberg the

1623
01:25:31,200 --> 01:25:33,599
Speaker 1: other day that all the passes in camp right now

1624
01:25:33,600 --> 01:25:36,160
Speaker 1: are going to Kamara and Troutman. It's those two guys

1625
01:25:36,240 --> 01:25:39,000
Speaker 1: just tons and tons of targets. With Michael Thomas out

1626
01:25:39,040 --> 01:25:42,760
Speaker 1: for maybe a big portion of the season, Trautman could

1627
01:25:42,760 --> 01:25:44,519
Speaker 1: be a target hog down there. And he's a tight

1628
01:25:44,600 --> 01:25:46,320
Speaker 1: end you might get in the thirteenth round. So if

1629
01:25:46,200 --> 01:25:48,519
Speaker 1: you don't get that top six, you can wait and

1630
01:25:48,560 --> 01:25:51,160
Speaker 1: grab guys like him and a few others. Yeah, I like,

1631
01:25:51,280 --> 01:25:53,439
Speaker 1: I like Troutman is my second tight end. You know.

1632
01:25:53,479 --> 01:25:55,360
Speaker 1: If I slew Yeah, and I go, I go like

1633
01:25:55,439 --> 01:25:58,000
Speaker 1: tight end eight or ninth round, and then I get Troutman.

1634
01:25:58,880 --> 01:26:00,640
Speaker 1: They have too much of a hit street of the

1635
01:26:00,760 --> 01:26:03,880
Speaker 1: Josh Hills and the cleaners, and they can't count on

1636
01:26:03,960 --> 01:26:06,120
Speaker 1: there's too much of a history of that to be like, yes,

1637
01:26:06,280 --> 01:26:08,120
Speaker 1: but he is in my He is in my top twelve,

1638
01:26:08,320 --> 01:26:11,800
Speaker 1: and Troutman's ADP is moving up. Yeah, so that big time.

1639
01:26:11,880 --> 01:26:16,560
Speaker 1: Right now, he's already und in underdoglass Troutman going upstream

1640
01:26:16,840 --> 01:26:19,479
Speaker 1: with his ADP. I see what you did see, That's

1641
01:26:19,479 --> 01:26:21,360
Speaker 1: why I picked him. Because of my last name. I

1642
01:26:21,680 --> 01:26:26,799
Speaker 1: dropped him going to pick fish related sleepers for the preseason.

1643
01:26:26,920 --> 01:26:32,400
Speaker 1: Fellow fishman. That's that's what it is for me. Not Frishman. No, No,

1644
01:26:32,560 --> 01:26:36,240
Speaker 1: what was fred? No? What was his first name? Man?

1645
01:26:36,560 --> 01:26:40,240
Speaker 1: Oh well, I don't remember. I don't either. My sleeper

1646
01:26:41,720 --> 01:26:44,200
Speaker 1: is going off the board in the tenth round. Now,

1647
01:26:44,240 --> 01:26:45,880
Speaker 1: listen to this guy. I'm gonna give you some stats

1648
01:26:45,880 --> 01:26:48,280
Speaker 1: on this guy without revealing his name. Listen to listen

1649
01:26:48,280 --> 01:26:50,040
Speaker 1: to this and put it against his tenth ROWND ADP.

1650
01:26:50,640 --> 01:26:53,479
Speaker 1: He was ranked fifth among all running backs by Pro

1651
01:26:53,600 --> 01:26:58,400
Speaker 1: Football Focus, fifth in what category is their overall rankings?

1652
01:26:58,479 --> 01:27:03,640
Speaker 1: Overall running rankings, he was fifth Okay, keep going. I

1653
01:27:03,840 --> 01:27:08,040
Speaker 1: have a counterpoint twenty seven spots ahead of the team's

1654
01:27:08,120 --> 01:27:11,679
Speaker 1: number one runner by Pro Football Focus ranking. This mystery

1655
01:27:11,840 --> 01:27:15,280
Speaker 1: running back I'm describing in the tenth round. In his

1656
01:27:15,400 --> 01:27:20,599
Speaker 1: three seasons, he's never averaged less than five yards per

1657
01:27:20,640 --> 01:27:24,320
Speaker 1: carry in any of his three seasons. His team just

1658
01:27:24,520 --> 01:27:28,960
Speaker 1: resigned him to a multi year extension and released his

1659
01:27:29,040 --> 01:27:32,680
