00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:18,320
Speaker 1: might just have to listen to the rest of the show.

22
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:20,840
Speaker 1: I like it. The Magical Beard to Fantasy Matt Francisco

24

Speaker 1: auction draft last night. Leagues the Best, Yeah, getting in there.

25
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:29,119
Speaker 1: I gotta wait like another eight days for my League

26
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 1: of Record draft. So okay, is that what snake? Okay,

27
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,199
Speaker 1: there you go, And of course it is the Pride

28

Speaker 1: of West Virginia, the wide Receiver Procnosty to the creator

29
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 1: of reception Perception Matt Harmon, what's up, anybody? What's going on?

30
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 1: Big show today in front of us? Uh, we've done

31
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 1: all the divisions. Thank god. That was We're getting a

32
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 1: little tedious. I felt like Dan Hansis on the A

33
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 1: t N podcast every time they do another division previews, like,

34
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 1: oh god, we're still doing these. It's such a great exercise.

35
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 1: But once you get through ten twelve of those divisions,

36
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 1: you're like, oh my god, we still to eight divisions.

37
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 1: The eight of them are divisions. That's how I feel

38
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,880
Speaker 1: at this point, that there's eighteen divisions. We're gonna be

39
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:15,919
Speaker 1: talking about draft strategies. It is a basically draft season heavy,

40
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 1: hot and heavy draft season right now. Zero RB or

41
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 1: two not zero RB. I know, folks are pretty passionate

42
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,359
Speaker 1: on both sides of the fence. It's heating such it's

43
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 1: so interesting seeing how heated people get about zero RB

44
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 1: or not zero R because there's only one way to

45
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 1: win a fantasy draft apparently or not. So we will

46
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,799
Speaker 1: talk about that, Yes, absolutely, we'll talk about the handcuffing

47
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,919
Speaker 1: you're running back. Good strategy, not a good strategy, stuff

48
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:47,359
Speaker 1: like that. Wow, Okay, that's what's called a tease in

49
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 1: the business. I just turned the podcast. All right, We're

50
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,640
Speaker 1: gonna be talking about PPR formats, uh, some players we

51
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:57,359
Speaker 1: like in that format, auction strategies as well, heroes and

52
00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,160
Speaker 1: zeros and all that kind of good stuff. But first star,

53
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:06,399
Speaker 1: top headlines, the camera highlights in the world of spreaking

54
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 1: continue to follow breaking news news, no question, the biggest

55
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 1: story coming out of Dallas, both in real life and

56
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 1: in fantasy Tony Romo UH could be out until mid

57
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 1: season at least, according to NFL Media in center Ian Rappaport,

58
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:33,079
Speaker 1: who reports that Romo has a compression fracture of his vertebrae.

59
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 1: That didn't sound good. That does not sound good. He

60
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,320
Speaker 1: also has a history of back problems as well. He's

61
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 1: what thirty six years old? Thirty six years old? Um,

62
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: a mid season timetable sounds pretty reasonable, if not longer.

63
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott, who has been a preseason hero, is going

64
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 1: to step in and start for the Dallas Cowboys. What

65
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 1: are we making the news? I mean, it's not great

66
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 1: for the likes of Dez Bryant and the Dallas passing attack.

67
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 1: I don't think it has a gigantic impact on Ezekiel Elliott.

68
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:10,119
Speaker 1: I was in Wisconsin actually, a few hours away from

69
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 1: heading to my main League of Record draft with with

70
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 1: beers on, you know, on the horizon delicious food, and

71
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 1: this news broke out. So I had to grab my

72
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 1: computer quick and uh, you know, put together a little

73
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 1: piece on this. But I think Zeke's workload is still

74
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 1: gonna be safe and he can still be productive behind

75
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 1: that offensive line. Isn't it fair to say that he'll

76
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 1: get more work? You would think they'll want to lean

77
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 1: on him as the offensive centerpiece. And last year Darren

78
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 1: mcfannon the average like ten point eight standard Fantasy points

79
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,159
Speaker 1: a game without Tony Romo in the lineup. Zeke is

80
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:39,719
Speaker 1: better than Darren McFadden. He's younger, faster, stronger, better pass catcher,

81
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:41,160
Speaker 1: whatever you want to whatever else you want to throw

82
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,039
Speaker 1: on him. So I'm not too concerned about him. But

83
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 1: as Harmon said, I think two podcasts to go, Dez

84
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 1: Brian is you know, thrived in his time in as

85
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 1: a fantasy wad receivers being a red zone threat, and

86
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 1: that that could be a little bit more in jeopardy

87
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 1: this year. Yeah. I think we talked about this before

88
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:59,239
Speaker 1: with des Brian. It does essentially erase the stupid little

89
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 1: bet that Gil he said like a week ago, like

90
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 1: from it was like a Fromo plays four team games.

91
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 1: I said that there's no way Terence Williams won't get

92
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 1: eight hundred yards of six touchdowns. Not even gonna play.

93
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,279
Speaker 1: We didn't know. We didn't even making it through the preseason.

94
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:18,600
Speaker 1: He didn't play four snaps, dude stops into the preseason.

95
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 1: Pretty rough. What does it mean for des Bryant, You know,

96
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 1: I don't know I moved him. I think I believe

97
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,159
Speaker 1: I had him at wide receiver seven in my second

98
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:29,040
Speaker 1: tier of my rankings, and all I did was really

99
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 1: swap him in DeAndre Hopkins. You know, Hopkins at seven

100
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 1: now and Desert eight. I don't think it makes that

101
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,280
Speaker 1: big of a difference, because I think Prescott can move

102
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,520
Speaker 1: the offense. I don't think he's gonna be as hopelessly

103
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 1: woeful as guys like Brandon Weed didn't kill him more

104
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,280
Speaker 1: work back there, you know, I don't. I don't think

105
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:49,039
Speaker 1: that Prescott's gonna keep up his passing game production that

106
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,920
Speaker 1: he's had in the preseason. Of course those numbers will

107
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:55,279
Speaker 1: come down, but he does he will move the offense

108
00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 1: with his legs. What what did he have in this

109
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 1: pretty like an eight percent completion or and one touchdowns,

110
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,160
Speaker 1: no picks. At one point he had a perfect quarterback rating.

111
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 1: That's great, point three. MG. Dude, this is a guy.

112
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,919
Speaker 1: I mean, we were talking about it today on the

113
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:17,159
Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy Live show. Um, he's Tim Tebow with a

114
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:22,680
Speaker 1: better arm. Again, that's a really low That's weird to

115
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 1: say that because because that was like the slanderous comparison

116
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 1: of Dak Prescott before he actually took big steps in

117
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:30,440
Speaker 1: his final year at college. People like, oh, this is

118
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 1: just another guy, this is just another Tim Tebow, you know,

119
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,840
Speaker 1: sec he was wearing fifteen. He had a quirky throwing motion.

120
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,160
Speaker 1: But I don't know if there was a I don't

121
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 1: know if it was a slander though. I mean Tim

122
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 1: Tebow in college was on up well when still, Yeah,

123
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:46,719
Speaker 1: we really don't need to go down like the Tebow

124
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 1: road right now. But are you I feel like we

125
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 1: should all right? All right, never mind totally not looks yes,

126
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,840
Speaker 1: it's completely unamused. But I mean from a fantasy perspective,

127
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:06,680
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott is interesting because of the running ability. He

128
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:11,320
Speaker 1: had ten rushing touchdowns at Mississippi State last year. Um,

129
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 1: he is a guy who has you know again you know,

130
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 1: been really good on the ground, very very physical runner

131
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:20,400
Speaker 1: as well. I mean he's an imposing figure when you

132
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 1: see him out there, especially when he gets into the

133
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:26,080
Speaker 1: open field. Um, Dak Prescott certainly he's got to have

134
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 1: some interesting upside because of the rushing ability. Yeah, he's

135
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 1: gonna keep the defense, is honest, because they have Zeke

136
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 1: back there too, like we were talking about Friday. Uh,

137
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 1: they have on those read options now that the defenses

138
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 1: are gonna sell out on running up the middle and

139
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 1: Prescott's just gonna take it out to the to the

140
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 1: outside for ten and twelve yards with his feet. Now,

141
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 1: my question being though with this is they already lost

142
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 1: Tony Roman to injury, and now they have Dak and

143
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 1: really nobody else behind them. How willing are they going

144
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,119
Speaker 1: to be to go and subject him to unnecessary hits

145
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 1: in the in the open field on designed runs? Well,

146
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: I think I think you will see a lot. It

147
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 1: will be more kind of read option runs where he

148
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 1: gets to kind of monitor the defense and see what happens.

149
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 1: I mean, that's sort of a way, I guess to

150
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 1: protect your quarterback as much as possible. But I think

151
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 1: they would be doing the Cowboys will be doing Dac

152
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 1: and their offense, they disservice to try and make him

153
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 1: something he's not that is a big part of his game.

154
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 1: They pigeonholed him in the pocket. I just think that

155
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,120
Speaker 1: doesn't let him help anyone, let him let him freestyle

156
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 1: when the play breaks down. But if we're doing design runs,

157
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 1: most defensive players are taught now to pummel the quarterback

158
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,239
Speaker 1: on those read options, whether or not he has the ball,

159
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:32,560
Speaker 1: because that stops him from doing that in the future.

160
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:34,840
Speaker 1: That's true, So I I just I have to wonder.

161
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 1: I mean, and maybe it's not the cowboy way, but

162
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 1: we I'm not. I'm not gonna buy in that they're

163
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 1: just gonna let Dak run wild and do all these

164
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 1: design runs to him when they legitimately have no quarterback

165
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 1: depth behind him. Right now, well, I think it also

166
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,680
Speaker 1: maybe this changes too if they make the move to

167
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:54,440
Speaker 1: go after whether what Josh McCown Sancho Sanchito might be

168
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,440
Speaker 1: will live if if Sanchez gets released by the Broncos,

169
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,840
Speaker 1: then he may end up in that gala. Right now,

170
00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:04,960
Speaker 1: is like just pining. Well, like, well, they're not gonna

171
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:06,719
Speaker 1: go off from accoun because the Browns want too much

172
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 1: knowing r G three's injury history. Um, so they're not.

173
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,960
Speaker 1: They're not parting ways with him and sure Sanchez whatever,

174
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:14,160
Speaker 1: But I think I think Dak is a good guy

175
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,080
Speaker 1: to monitor on the waiver wire or stream or maybe

176
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 1: even a DFS play. But man, Week one, Giants, there's

177
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott. I do like him definitely in DFS. There

178
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 1: will be weeks come on, now, get on board, but

179
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 1: let's get with it. When it comes to like drafting

180
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,960
Speaker 1: him in a ten or twelve team standard league, I'd

181
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:31,559
Speaker 1: so much rather take a shot on one of those

182
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 1: other late round guys that that we that have we

183
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 1: know a little bit more of what's doing and have

184
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,199
Speaker 1: a better bevy of weapons. Like rather take Tyrod Taylor,

185
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,200
Speaker 1: He's you know, in another year, he's got Sammy Watkins

186
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:42,120
Speaker 1: or even Kirk Cousins or somebody like that. In the

187
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:46,280
Speaker 1: later right, here's here's a crazy Dak Prescott or Blake Bortles.

188
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 1: This this guy's a rookie. Remember, Oh listen, I know,

189
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 1: I get it. I mean, but again, the the uh look,

190
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 1: he looked amazing in the preseason and it wasn't just again,

191
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 1: it wasn't just the running ability. But how about that

192
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 1: deep dime he threw Terence Williams. That was gorgeous. I'm

193
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 1: curious to see how much they are letting him get

194
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 1: into the playbook, how vanilla they're going to keep it

195
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:10,959
Speaker 1: with him, and what happens, you know, a couple of

196
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 1: weeks in the season when there's tape out and everybody's

197
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 1: starting to scheme. That's true, But that's what I'm saying.

198
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,800
Speaker 1: We won d you know, I think I think one

199
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 1: against the Giants. I like that, all right? How about

200
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 1: in the Dalla Dallas in Denver Trevor Simeon Planet of

201
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 1: the Apes that named the starter. Why why is he

202
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:35,440
Speaker 1: planning in the Apes? Simeon? Hello, yeah, Simeon, get monkeys? God,

203
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:39,520
Speaker 1: come on, I mean with it here. I've only seen

204
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 1: bits and pieces of planet. That's an actual word. Man, Oh,

205
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:49,320
Speaker 1: you're on a computer. Why don't you go to the Google?

206
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 1: I don't know why, but I just got hit by

207
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 1: like a wave of exhaustion as soon as we started.

208
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 1: That's fabulous. That's exactly what we need for this. In

209
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 1: the afternoon, I'm not on my game anymore. WHOA, okay,

210
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 1: the first world problem. This is good to have some clarity.

211
00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:08,560
Speaker 1: What I kind of like about him being the starter

212
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:13,680
Speaker 1: is that he is more risk averse than Sanchez. So hopefully,

213
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:15,959
Speaker 1: even if he's just dinking and dunking it, they're not

214
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 1: gonna be turning the ball over as much and it

215
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,400
Speaker 1: will keep those fantasy relevant players like C. J. Anderson

216
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,439
Speaker 1: to various Thomas Emmanuel Sanders on the field more and

217
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,280
Speaker 1: he won't be, you know, turning the ball over a

218
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 1: bunch as Sanchez might and taking them off the field.

219
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 1: If anything, it helps solidify the Denver defense as a

220
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:33,280
Speaker 1: fantasy play because they're not gonna be having to come

221
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:36,559
Speaker 1: from behind and and worry about those pick sixes that

222
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 1: Sanchez is prone to throw every now and again. But

223
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 1: what Trevor is summing in there? You mentioned it look

224
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,400
Speaker 1: coming out of Northwestern. Uh, he's he's used to add pass,

225
00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:47,000
Speaker 1: heavy attack and uh dinking and dunking and doing all

226
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,080
Speaker 1: those type of things. Does it help the does the

227
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 1: dinking and dunking? Does it help a guy like Emmanuel Sanders? Sure?

228
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:56,719
Speaker 1: I think it would. I think it would. I think

229
00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 1: people are okay. First of all, Emmanuel Sanders is a

230
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 1: huge value right now in drafts. He's slipping like eighth

231
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 1: or ninth round. Maybe you don't have like a wide

232
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,560
Speaker 1: receiver three by then, and you want to value pick

233
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:12,560
Speaker 1: go with Emmanuel Sanders. I'm not afraid of Simeons. Simeon

234
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:16,800
Speaker 1: knocking down Thomas and and Sanders value like whatever is

235
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:18,679
Speaker 1: there's going to be better than what the Broncos had

236
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:20,559
Speaker 1: last year, and both guys still I think had over

237
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 1: a thousand yards. I mean, I just I don't I

238
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:25,600
Speaker 1: don't see any big change one way or another with him.

239
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:27,240
Speaker 1: I think I don't think who they were last year

240
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:29,439
Speaker 1: is who they are going to be this year. I mean,

241
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 1: you know, it's not like the the quarterback plane is

242
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 1: getting any better or worse. Um, I wouldn't. I wouldn't

243
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 1: dare take a chance on Trevor Simeon on my fantasy teach.

244
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:40,200
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no. I think it's more of a

245
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 1: question of how he's going to affect the wide receivers.

246
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 1: And the other thing with the dinking and dunking is

247
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 1: Damarius Thomas is like king of those bubble screens. So

248
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 1: there you go. This offense could be legitimately one of

249
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:55,640
Speaker 1: the lowest scoring at least in the NFL, which which

250
00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,600
Speaker 1: does make me nervous to spend like priority picks on

251
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:02,560
Speaker 1: any of these guys. But especially why sort of why,

252
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 1: I don't know, I feel like that's kind of why

253
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 1: I like C. J. Anderson. I mean, I just I

254
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,640
Speaker 1: keep holding to this idea that to win this team

255
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 1: is going to be defense and a ground attack, and

256
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,560
Speaker 1: so that you know, they're gonna want to shorten games

257
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 1: because they can't turn it over to their quarterback and

258
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 1: expect to win with you know, Simeon throwing the ball

259
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 1: thirty five forty times a week is just not gonna

260
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 1: at least even if they're low scoring. We know where

261
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:25,280
Speaker 1: the ball is going to go. For the most part,

262
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 1: it's standard Sanders. Virgil Green is kind of emerging though that. Yeah, no,

263
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,680
Speaker 1: I will not stop. Don't tell me what to do.

264
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:36,840
Speaker 1: I think he has been making place in the preseason.

265
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 1: I think there's some use. Yeah, he's super athletic, athletic

266
00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 1: for how many years and he keeps getting passed. I

267
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 1: have a point. He he he's energized, guys, let him go.

268
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,760
Speaker 1: Let about point here, Like, there's a lot of times

269
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 1: you see when a young quarterback is integrated to the offense,

270
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 1: they used a tight end a lot is a nice

271
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,000
Speaker 1: little dump off option. I think that could be who

272
00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 1: Virgil Green is. Now, if you guys want to go

273
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 1: back to interrupting me, feel free. I was gonna say,

274
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:01,040
Speaker 1: I think I've noticed a trend emerging. Dare I say

275
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:03,520
Speaker 1: with Marcus trends. He doesn't like us bringing up any

276
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 1: dark horse tight ends. He only wants the elite guys

277
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:08,520
Speaker 1: hammon braid. He's like, no, because you guys are reaching

278
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 1: into this grab bag, this grab bag of yuck to

279
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:14,960
Speaker 1: come up with like these tight ends. They aren't gonna

280
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 1: do anything. That guy who's on the Clive Walford hype

281
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 1: train over there. I mean, look, he's got more of

282
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 1: a shot than Cameron Bread. You keep that, you keep

283
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:25,520
Speaker 1: dying on that Walford hill bro. All right, let's go

284
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:29,680
Speaker 1: to Baltimore, where again everyone is apparently dying there. Moss

285
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:33,760
Speaker 1: injury is sued. I don't get it. Benjamin Watson first

286
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:37,280
Speaker 1: snap of the game tears his achillies. Done for the season.

287
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,520
Speaker 1: I don't get it. I just don't understand what's And

288
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:42,960
Speaker 1: again it's the Baltimore and really it's the Baltimore tight

289
00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:45,240
Speaker 1: end curse, is it not. I mean last year, literally,

290
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 1: how many of these guys got injured? He was crazy

291
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 1: at me. Is still trying to work his way double

292
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 1: hip surgery or something and breaks something like a finger

293
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 1: or something in a fight too. Yeah. I think he

294
00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,560
Speaker 1: got into a fight with a teammate. So I don't

295
00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 1: like Crockett. Gilmore is like the de facto leader now

296
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 1: happening though. I was just like the world and he's

297
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:09,760
Speaker 1: he's he's not injured right now currently? Not right now? Currently? Uh?

298
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 1: What about? He heard his hamstring at the end of July,

299
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 1: but since then he hasn't had any any injury Buzzy,

300
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:18,120
Speaker 1: what's up with what's up with double X? Max William's injured?

301
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 1: I think hearing a return? What about on the what

302
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 1: about Darren Waller? See? The thing is like, I know,

303
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 1: I liked cracky Gilmore last year and then have anybody here,

304
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 1: But now that they've got so many bodies and we

305
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:29,360
Speaker 1: don't know what's going to happen, I'm just staying away

306
00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:31,520
Speaker 1: from this tight end. This discussion makes me sad. The

307
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 1: thing is, though, like God, some of these players in

308
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 1: Baltimore are gonna matter in fantasy because they're gonna be

309
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:39,440
Speaker 1: bad and they're going to throw the ball a lot, right,

310
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:41,280
Speaker 1: so when they when they start playing, we can grab

311
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 1: them all with the waiver way. Yeah, I know, it's

312
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 1: just it's just so frustrating, Like I thought Ben Watson actually,

313
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 1: I was kind of coming around to him being like

314
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:49,880
Speaker 1: a sneaky tight end play. I mean, I know, we're

315
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 1: only allowed to talk about the two best tight ends

316
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 1: Jared Cook and Delanney Walker. Walker. That's it. That's all.

317
00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 1: We can talk. Maybe a little to Julius Thomas somewhere perfect.

318
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:06,280
Speaker 1: Kenneth Dixon, he apparently tore his m C l also dead.

319
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 1: He did not tear his al MCL spring. He's out

320
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:13,920
Speaker 1: for like four weeks. No, he's out for four weeks.

321
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 1: I got the I got an email saying I thought

322
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 1: it was Kenny Dixon with a an m c L tear.

323
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:23,440
Speaker 1: Oh that's at MCL. Sorry, does not need surgery, does

324
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:25,960
Speaker 1: not need surgery or we It seems a little optimistic

325
00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:29,200
Speaker 1: to think, yeah, oh yeah, big time. I think it's

326
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 1: four to six weeks. So we'll just say sex. Yeah,

327
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 1: Kenneth Dixon again. So I his draft stole. Yes, I

328
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:38,320
Speaker 1: mean if you were, you shouldn't have been drafting him

329
00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:41,040
Speaker 1: before we had basically it basically buried him like two

330
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 1: or three, two or three weeks ago on the podcast. Anyways,

331
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 1: even James said he was off of him. James was

332
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 1: really the last hold out there for Kanneth Dixon. It

333
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 1: was this probably just takes off the idea that he

334
00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 1: could potentially be a guy that mid season takes over

335
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 1: that backfield. I think that's pretty much off the off

336
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 1: the radar. I would agree with that. Yeah, minor injuries

337
00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,960
Speaker 1: to Julio Jones ankle a, j Green bang knees, they'll

338
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:06,359
Speaker 1: both be fine. We'll move on. Josh Gordon Josh Gordon.

339
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:10,840
Speaker 1: Josh Gordon, two targets, two receptions, like what is it

340
00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:12,960
Speaker 1: like eight seven yards or something? One of them was

341
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:15,320
Speaker 1: like a forty three yard touchdown. Look, I know you

342
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 1: guys have strong opinions on Josh Gordon. I put him

343
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:21,720
Speaker 1: on my Players to Avoid list last week after no no,

344
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,800
Speaker 1: after the preseason game the other night, I got flamed

345
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:28,080
Speaker 1: on Twitter dot com. Everyone just oh man, I got

346
00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:30,639
Speaker 1: torn up. So just just putting that out there. I

347
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,560
Speaker 1: understand it was a bad take. Let's move on, you guys.

348
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:37,919
Speaker 1: You guys can you guys can not? Is it a

349
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,200
Speaker 1: bad take? I don't know. He's gonna miss four games.

350
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 1: He's pretty much one bad decision away from his NFL

351
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:49,880
Speaker 1: career being over. H He's had hamstring injuries. I think camp.

352
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:53,439
Speaker 1: Is he in shape? Does he know the playbooks? He

353
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 1: can make questions about Josh, But he looked good. He

354
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 1: looked huge, Like who's going to cover that guy again.

355
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:03,479
Speaker 1: I've come to the conclusion that of all the plays

356
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:05,920
Speaker 1: the Browns having their playbook, the one that they are

357
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:09,600
Speaker 1: the best at is having a guy run fast and

358
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:13,199
Speaker 1: just throw it deep. We saw Terrelle prior to do

359
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:14,960
Speaker 1: it a couple of times that we've seen Josh Gordon

360
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:17,359
Speaker 1: do it. Like, I don't know if they're good at

361
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:19,000
Speaker 1: the rest of their playbook, but they're good at that.

362
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:24,080
Speaker 1: You haters, just keep on that, Mr. Seventh round Josh

363
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:28,880
Speaker 1: Gordon here, and I would yeah, I'm gonna double down

364
00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 1: on that, and I would say, absolutely you take him

365
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 1: in the six or seventh round if you take wide

366
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:36,480
Speaker 1: receivers early, because listen, this was an important thing to see.

367
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,440
Speaker 1: We saw him still be good at football shockingly. Yeah, no,

368
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:43,320
Speaker 1: that's true. His his adjustment to that touchdown catch was unbelievable. Yeah,

369
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:45,360
Speaker 1: that was nice. It was nice. Listen, when you're when

370
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 1: you're a stud athlete and just an overall great player,

371
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 1: sometimes you can take some some leisurely time off sometimes.

372
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 1: But I think I think, I think this is more

373
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:59,920
Speaker 1: about that dude's got more big time I just want

374
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,000
Speaker 1: out looking at his ceiling than it is his wheat

375
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:03,760
Speaker 1: tweak production. I mean, I think this, I think it

376
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,359
Speaker 1: reinforces the fact that this ceiling is still pretty high.

377
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:07,720
Speaker 1: But what are you gonna do, like on a week

378
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:09,800
Speaker 1: towheek basis, how much is he really going to give

379
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:11,720
Speaker 1: you consistently? Well, that's why I've said, you don't want

380
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:13,440
Speaker 1: to have him as like your wide receiver two. You

381
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:15,320
Speaker 1: want to have him as like a three or more

382
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:17,600
Speaker 1: even ideally as a four in a wide receiver heavy

383
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:19,639
Speaker 1: approach that you have access to the upside but you're

384
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:23,440
Speaker 1: insulated from the downside. Pass. Okay, cool, alright, I'm with you.

385
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:26,399
Speaker 1: Co alright, pass you nerds. You nerds keep taking like

386
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,920
Speaker 1: your safe picks. I love I love when Captain spreadsheet

387
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:36,800
Speaker 1: here calls us nerds that need it there? How about

388
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 1: in San Diego? Um wow, Melvin Gordon, helloy, you guys

389
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:43,960
Speaker 1: ready to come along on this road? I am, I'm

390
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:49,840
Speaker 1: on board. I've flipped completely. I flipped completely. He looks explosive. Man,

391
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:51,840
Speaker 1: you guys are laughing at me. Back in April and May,

392
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 1: when I was talking that touchdown run he had what

393
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 1: like it wasn't a crazy impressive run, but because they

394
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,439
Speaker 1: sold out on a bliz but he as soon as

395
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:03,919
Speaker 1: he hit the hole and he got that one step,

396
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:06,399
Speaker 1: it was like game over. And he looked like he

397
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:08,879
Speaker 1: did it in Wisconsin. It was just he was gone.

398
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 1: It was awesome. And the thing about that too, what

399
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:14,000
Speaker 1: I looked at the replay on it, Um he was

400
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 1: like looking back at the defenders, like making sure that

401
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:20,760
Speaker 1: he was out running right right, that's amazing. Uh No,

402
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:25,639
Speaker 1: he he looked explosive and again obviously there was productivity concerns,

403
00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:29,359
Speaker 1: old line concerns. It was the micro fracture was the

404
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:32,399
Speaker 1: big one. Uh this offseason on that knee. But man,

405
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 1: in the words of Marshaw and Lynch, MG has been

406
00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:39,080
Speaker 1: here the whole time. Seriously, I just love that, even

407
00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:41,840
Speaker 1: on the runs that aren't the explosive not getting touched

408
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:45,840
Speaker 1: touchdown runs, he just looks much more decisive. Last year.

409
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,760
Speaker 1: I think he came in with sky high expectations and

410
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,360
Speaker 1: his offensive line the Chargers, they showed this stat during

411
00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:54,240
Speaker 1: the preseason game. They tried out twenty six different offensive

412
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 1: line combinations last year. That is not good for running

413
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:00,880
Speaker 1: back to get into a rhythm or learned or get confidence.

414
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:02,239
Speaker 1: And I think I forget where the stat was from.

415
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 1: Might have been Probable focused or somewhere, but Gordon and

416
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:07,959
Speaker 1: Danny Woodhead were both like hit on average the deepest

417
00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:10,399
Speaker 1: behind the line of scrimmage of like any running backs

418
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:12,959
Speaker 1: in the league last years. So now that the offensive

419
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:14,880
Speaker 1: line is a little more stability, he's got a year

420
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 1: under his belt. He's confident, he's healthy. You're able to

421
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:20,160
Speaker 1: see him make the decisive cuts and have the vision

422
00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:22,360
Speaker 1: that he showed at Wisconsin. So I'm I'm all on board.

423
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,360
Speaker 1: I got him in like the sixth round. I think

424
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:28,560
Speaker 1: of my draft this weekend and I was ecstatic. And plus, uh,

425
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:32,080
Speaker 1: there's gonna be a more balanced offense as well. Travis

426
00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,880
Speaker 1: Benjamin on the outside taking some safety help away. He's

427
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,560
Speaker 1: looking good too. Yeah, Keenan Allen's gonna be there. Obviously.

428
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 1: Antonio Gates is is back and relatively healthy from all reports.

429
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:44,040
Speaker 1: So man, this is uh, it's an It's an offense

430
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:47,200
Speaker 1: at least that um should be more balanced for Melvin Gordon,

431
00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:49,880
Speaker 1: which is a good thing. By the way, in San Dieota,

432
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:55,040
Speaker 1: the Charges have signed Joey Bosa finally are moderately sized.

433
00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:57,159
Speaker 1: Regional nightmare is over. Yeah, that doesn't It doesn't mean

434
00:21:57,160 --> 00:22:00,680
Speaker 1: anything for fantasy really, because you're not. I will say though,

Speaker 1: the rundown. But can I mention tv on Austin getting paid? Sure? What,

458
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:08,679
Speaker 1: Let's just let's keep it rolling. What now, Tavon Austin,

459
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:13,240
Speaker 1: What in the hell A doing? You hear that drum beat.

460
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,880
Speaker 1: That drum beat is Tavon Austin knocking down your door,

461
00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:22,560
Speaker 1: your extension, knocking down your door. You don't give four

462
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:26,679
Speaker 1: year extensions to nobody's He's come. Yeah, he's coming, He's not.

463
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 1: He's coming. He's got more guarantee. He's got thirty million

464
00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 1: and guarantees coming his way. It was a four year,

465
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:36,399
Speaker 1: forty two million dollar contract for Tavon Austin, a guy

466
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 1: who is multidimensional. To be fair, he's multidimensional, absolutely, but

467
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:46,200
Speaker 1: not that good for player. He's a good player that

468
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:50,240
Speaker 1: has not been used properly. It is it's it's it's inaccurate.

469
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:52,240
Speaker 1: It's like if you take a toothbrush to you scrub

470
00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:54,959
Speaker 1: your vegetables, Like it's just not the way to do it.

471
00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:57,080
Speaker 1: That's not how you're gonna get the most benefit from

472
00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:00,600
Speaker 1: your job. By the way, what how did you come

473
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:02,880
Speaker 1: up with that? Because that you just pulled that toothbrush

474
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:07,800
Speaker 1: descript that was that was aggressive. So I just wanted

475
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:10,920
Speaker 1: to stop and like pay that. People listening at home

476
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:12,960
Speaker 1: weren't like, wait did he say toothbrush vegetables? And we

477
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,960
Speaker 1: breathed on like that deserved a little more time in

478
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:19,040
Speaker 1: the podcast. Very good, okay, good? Four year, two million,

479
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,240
Speaker 1: thirty million guaranteed Randall Cobb last year. This is not

480
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:25,359
Speaker 1: an old contract. Randall Cobb four year, forty million I

481
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:29,000
Speaker 1: believe seventeen million correct guaranteed. He got more guaranteed than

482
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:32,440
Speaker 1: Cobb and Baldwin that signed like four year extensions recently.

483
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:35,560
Speaker 1: That's crazy. Not combined, but individually, he got more guaranteed

484
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,400
Speaker 1: than both of them. That is crazy talk. That's crazy talk.

485
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:41,119
Speaker 1: So I know you were heated on it on Twitter, James.

486
00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:42,920
Speaker 1: It makes no sense. I just want to find out

487
00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 1: who reps Tavon Austin and start job started some talks

488
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:48,159
Speaker 1: with them about maybe, you know, signing some of us

489
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:52,040
Speaker 1: from the Strop absolutely get Harmon and franchise on that

490
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 1: that season long thing. I do want to say, I'm

491
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:57,879
Speaker 1: happy for Tavon Austin, Yes, happy for I Love. I'm

492
00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:01,399
Speaker 1: super happy for guys who get the act. That's great.

493
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:05,919
Speaker 1: I'm just saying from a management perspective, what in the

494
00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 1: hell were the Rams thinking. I have no idea they've

495
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:12,520
Speaker 1: been listening to this podcast so that they have a

496
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,359
Speaker 1: gym on their hands and him up could use a

497
00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 1: good quarterback. Oh boy, hey hey, hey, hey, hey, calm down,

498
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:24,040
Speaker 1: pal calm down, Okay, calm down. Uh, let's talk about

499
00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:26,560
Speaker 1: some draft strategy, some different strategies that we have in

500
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:29,560
Speaker 1: different formats. Look, there's so many different ways that you

501
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 1: could play this game. Uh. Most of the time we

502
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:36,480
Speaker 1: talked about standard, which is fine snake draft and you know,

503
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:40,560
Speaker 1: four points for a passing touchdown, six for receptions and

504
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:43,639
Speaker 1: and rushing attacks, no PPR, no points per reception, all

505
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:47,959
Speaker 1: those kind of things. But uh, the hot topic in

506
00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 1: fantasy this offseason for some reason, I don't get it.

507
00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:54,680
Speaker 1: Zero RB or no zero RB. Should you be a

508
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:59,119
Speaker 1: traditionalist and go with running backs heavy in the early

509
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:01,480
Speaker 1: part of your draft, or should you be like Matt

510
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:05,879
Speaker 1: Harmon and say screw that position, going wide receivers until

511
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:08,560
Speaker 1: I die. You don't want you don't have to say

512
00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:11,240
Speaker 1: screw the position. You're still taking good guys later in

513
00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:13,960
Speaker 1: the draft with different roles. It's the whole theory is

514
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,680
Speaker 1: And Harmon can speak more accurately too, because he's he's

515
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:18,360
Speaker 1: studied it, and he is he said, the wider wide

516
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 1: receiver prognosticator. But it's a it's an anti fragile strategy,

517
00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:24,800
Speaker 1: and you're trying to protect yourself from the losing that

518
00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:26,800
Speaker 1: valuable first or second round pick if you sink it

519
00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:28,560
Speaker 1: into a running back who is much more prone to

520
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:30,879
Speaker 1: get injured. And can I say this as well? So

521
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,760
Speaker 1: many people have their own definition of what zero RB is,

522
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:36,000
Speaker 1: and I get it. You know, it's a very loose,

523
00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:41,159
Speaker 1: very loose, uh definition right now. But zero RB essentially

524
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:44,080
Speaker 1: just means, you know, again, you're you're really going wide

525
00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:46,959
Speaker 1: receiver super heavy in the early parts of your draft

526
00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:51,120
Speaker 1: and you're trying to find value running back. Harmon wrote

527
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:54,520
Speaker 1: a great piece on my wide receiver heavy is here

528
00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:55,920
Speaker 1: to stay, So Harmon, maybe you want to speak to

529
00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:58,239
Speaker 1: the differences a little bit and in the theory behind that,

530
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,119
Speaker 1: and people can read that great piece at NFL dot

531
00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,240
Speaker 1: com slash Harmon. By the way, yes, it's the most

532
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:04,359
Speaker 1: good one. It's the most Oh thanks guys. I really

533
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 1: put a lot of time and uh effort into writing it,

534
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:10,880
Speaker 1: So thanks. And I quoted a lot of really great

535
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 1: people that have done a lot of good work on

536
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:15,120
Speaker 1: on the topic as well, and I would encourage everybody

537
00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:18,200
Speaker 1: to follow the links provided there and read and follow

538
00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:20,919
Speaker 1: those people as well. But yeah, so I mean zero

539
00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:24,280
Speaker 1: r B is a strategy that Shawn Z Shawn Siegel,

540
00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:27,200
Speaker 1: who writes for Rhodo Viz, put out during the two

541
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:31,080
Speaker 1: thousand two tho fourteen offseason talking about um some of

542
00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:34,760
Speaker 1: his approach to a high stakes league the previous season

543
00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:38,080
Speaker 1: in which several of his zero RB teams finished within

544
00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:40,480
Speaker 1: the top scoring teams that year, and one of his

545
00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:43,560
Speaker 1: teams won the championship with which that team had Jamal

546
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 1: Charles on it. But he ended up coming up with

547
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:48,120
Speaker 1: this theory called zero RB where yeah, you would take

548
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:51,120
Speaker 1: an anti fragile approach and the reason that running backs

549
00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:54,600
Speaker 1: are becoming more fragile. And this is not like an opinion,

550
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,359
Speaker 1: these are facts like I outlined outlined in the article.

551
00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 1: The running back position is big coming less and less

552
00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:04,840
Speaker 1: about workhorses. You know, if you look at back in

553
00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 1: two thousand six, there were seven or there were seven

554
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:12,159
Speaker 1: running backs that had of their team brush attempts are

555
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,640
Speaker 1: more that where there has only been seven since two

556
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,159
Speaker 1: thousand eleven, so there have been less and less workhorses.

557
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:19,000
Speaker 1: And you can see the chart I provided there, just

558
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:22,080
Speaker 1: the the lines trending way down for that. It's also

559
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:25,600
Speaker 1: running back scoring is trending downwards and wide receiver scoring

560
00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:28,679
Speaker 1: is trending upwards, and same thing from a week to

561
00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:33,040
Speaker 1: week perspective. So and then lastly, injury rates. Running backs

562
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:35,959
Speaker 1: are much more likely to uh to suffer a serious injury.

563
00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:38,280
Speaker 1: Probably the one that I one of the favorite pieces

564
00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:42,240
Speaker 1: that I decided come from Jeremy Funk of Dynasty Football Factory,

565
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:46,360
Speaker 1: where he found that ninety two running backs since two thousand,

566
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,640
Speaker 1: two thousand nine have suffered significant injuries, where only seven

567
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,160
Speaker 1: wide receivers have. So I mean, these aren't like opinions.

568
00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:55,440
Speaker 1: These are the trends. These are the way things are going.

569
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:58,520
Speaker 1: It's not an overreaction till last year exactly. That's happening

570
00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,280
Speaker 1: for years as the league, rule rules and offenses have

571
00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:04,480
Speaker 1: shifted more and more towards passing right. Every every year,

572
00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 1: past attempts go up, every year rush attempts go down.

573
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:11,200
Speaker 1: So the reason that it's tough to count on these

574
00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:14,000
Speaker 1: running backs is for a multitude of reasons. Backfield committees

575
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,720
Speaker 1: are becoming more prevalent. Running backs are just more likely

576
00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:19,080
Speaker 1: to get injured than wide receivers or at least suffer

577
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:23,480
Speaker 1: significant injuries, and that the position overall is becoming more

578
00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:27,120
Speaker 1: important as scoring changes affect fantasy, especially in PPR leagues,

579
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:30,040
Speaker 1: but also in standard leagues as well, because receivers are

580
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:33,840
Speaker 1: accounting for more catching yard catching more yards than ever before.

581
00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:36,200
Speaker 1: That's an important distinction, though, is it not. A lot

582
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:38,080
Speaker 1: of folks look at zero RB and say, oh, well,

583
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:40,920
Speaker 1: you must play on one of those fancy PPR leagues. Actually,

584
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 1: what you're saying, Matt Harmon is that, and a lot

585
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:46,800
Speaker 1: of folks are saying is that, regardless of format, zero

586
00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,120
Speaker 1: r B is the way to go. See. I don't know, see,

587
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:51,480
Speaker 1: And this is my point. I don't think there is

588
00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:52,960
Speaker 1: one way to get to the top of the mountain.

589
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,680
Speaker 1: You can. I say this tool in your tool kit.

590
00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:58,680
Speaker 1: I say that in the conclusion of the article, like

591
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:02,200
Speaker 1: if if you take three running backs to start off

592
00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:06,280
Speaker 1: your draft and they all stay healthy, achieve workhorse status,

593
00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 1: and meet their ADP value, which is another thing. Wide

594
00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:11,520
Speaker 1: receivers have been much more predictable in terms of where

595
00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 1: they are an average draft position, and where they finish

596
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 1: at the end of the year. If you can get

597
00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:16,400
Speaker 1: a running back that hit all three of those things,

598
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 1: that your top of your draft, that's great, But the

599
00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:21,160
Speaker 1: likelihood of that happening is going down every year. That's

600
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 1: becoming less less likely that happens. So you can you

601
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:26,760
Speaker 1: can get to the top of your league by taking

602
00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:29,000
Speaker 1: an early running back strategy. But it's just a much

603
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:31,880
Speaker 1: more risky, much more fragile approach of doing business. Okay,

604
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 1: so let me ask you this then, So what is

605
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:37,160
Speaker 1: a profile of a running back that you like to

606
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:42,440
Speaker 1: target in these zero RB situations? Yeah, so I typically

607
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:44,120
Speaker 1: and I talked about this as well, I typically like

608
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:46,280
Speaker 1: to build my teams with I'm not I probably not

609
00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:48,720
Speaker 1: like a true zero RB draft or if if it's strike,

610
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:50,720
Speaker 1: if the move strikes me right, I can, I will

611
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:52,120
Speaker 1: do it, and I will probably do it in several

612
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:55,600
Speaker 1: leagues this year. Um, but I'm also willing to put

613
00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:58,120
Speaker 1: in one running back there at the beginning. And those

614
00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:01,280
Speaker 1: running backs have to be like a you know, a

615
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:04,520
Speaker 1: Jamal Charles type Ezekiel Elliott. These guys that profile is

616
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:08,160
Speaker 1: true workhorses who could uh just dominate the touches and

617
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,400
Speaker 1: be a clear also a clear floor play. Like if

618
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 1: the DeVonta Freeman is there in the second round, in

619
00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:14,480
Speaker 1: the mid mid to late second round, I think he's

620
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 1: great for zero You want guys that the one thing

621
00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:18,440
Speaker 1: you just didn't mention, but that is to go through

622
00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:20,720
Speaker 1: all those guys that have ability in the passing game

623
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:23,240
Speaker 1: as well. That's key because that boosts the weekly floor.

624
00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:25,560
Speaker 1: And that's important when you're relying on these wide receivers

625
00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:27,600
Speaker 1: because it gives you that a nice advantage there. So

626
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:30,240
Speaker 1: then later on in the draft, you're looking at guys

627
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:33,480
Speaker 1: again with pass catching upside. You're Chris Thompson's these guys

628
00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:35,640
Speaker 1: that can you know, Chris Stompson, Yeah, he's great for

629
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:40,520
Speaker 1: this this format um touchdown guys. Legare Blunt I think

630
00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:44,000
Speaker 1: is an ideal ninth round pick for for zero RB

631
00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:46,320
Speaker 1: teams because you know the weeks when you can start him,

632
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:48,320
Speaker 1: you know, the weeks when you don't want anything to

633
00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:51,200
Speaker 1: do with him. Shane Vereen, Yeah, Shane Verreen's okay, but

634
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:52,880
Speaker 1: he was I think we just kind of already saw

635
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:55,040
Speaker 1: what he was last year and there's just not a

636
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:57,680
Speaker 1: lot of week to week up. Charles Sims, Charles Sims

637
00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:00,600
Speaker 1: is perfect. He's another one in like the round. I

638
00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:04,000
Speaker 1: think he's must have for zero RB teams. Rashad Jennings

639
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:05,800
Speaker 1: is another example of the type of guy that you

640
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 1: know is going to start the season off as a

641
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 1: workhorse and then you can back off of him if

642
00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:12,880
Speaker 1: he loses the job, if they're injury concerns and Blah

643
00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:15,440
Speaker 1: Pals another guy with pass catching upside. But also you

644
00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:18,600
Speaker 1: want these guys like Sims and Pal and then Spencer

645
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:21,160
Speaker 1: where who's not not a passing game threat, but all

646
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 1: these guys that have defined roles. Where can I think

647
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:25,240
Speaker 1: could easily be a goal line back. He scored a

648
00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:27,760
Speaker 1: goal on touchdowns every single week in the preseason. But

649
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,120
Speaker 1: if the starter goes down, then you have an RB

650
00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:32,239
Speaker 1: one in your hands. Because that's that's another thing of

651
00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 1: running backs. Backup running backs especially benefit from the chaos

652
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:40,400
Speaker 1: and fragility of the NFL season. If that's what keeps

653
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 1: us coming back to the NFL is because it's so

654
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 1: unpredictable and so exciting. So these unpredictable events like starters

655
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:48,800
Speaker 1: going down, that benefits those backup running backs. It adds

656
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:50,960
Speaker 1: more upside to your team if you can hit the

657
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,240
Speaker 1: right guys. So one thing I want to say too,

658
00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:54,480
Speaker 1: and because you were talking to James, you know we

659
00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 1: said off the top that it's not there's no one

660
00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:59,320
Speaker 1: way to skinny catter go through the draft. I think

661
00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 1: an example of how like we we kind of have

662
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:02,720
Speaker 1: touched on it, but just to get it out there.

663
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 1: It's just draft good players, good situations. Like you don't

664
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 1: have to go in with a set mandate like I'm

665
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:11,920
Speaker 1: gonna draft three running backs with my first three picks,

666
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,840
Speaker 1: or I'm gonna draft four wide receivers. Like for instance,

667
00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:17,280
Speaker 1: in my draft that I did this weekend, I wasn't

668
00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:20,000
Speaker 1: bent on going wide receiver heavy. I got Odell with

669
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:22,320
Speaker 1: pick five, and then coming back in the second round,

670
00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:25,320
Speaker 1: I was looking at Lamar Miller Allen Robinson. Lamar Miller

671
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 1: went one pick before me, so I took Allen Robinson

672
00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:29,239
Speaker 1: third round. I was like, maybe I want to get

673
00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:31,000
Speaker 1: one of these running backs if they fall. They didn't.

674
00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:32,920
Speaker 1: They all went around the thing. So Keenan Allen was

675
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:35,800
Speaker 1: sitting there in the third round. Instead took him. Coming

676
00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:37,840
Speaker 1: background of the fourth, I'm like, should probably look at

677
00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:39,800
Speaker 1: a running back soon. But Randall Cobb was there in

678
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:42,240
Speaker 1: the fourth, Like, I'm not gonna pass up a good

679
00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:46,400
Speaker 1: player to to fit um my roster or anything like that.

680
00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:50,520
Speaker 1: But I think that is what most drafters right, which

681
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:53,840
Speaker 1: is why we're advising to take the best players and

682
00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:55,280
Speaker 1: then try and and try and find the right valley,

683
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:57,080
Speaker 1: because then coming after that, I was loaded at wide

684
00:33:57,120 --> 00:34:00,000
Speaker 1: receiver and some good running backs fell to me. Maybe

685
00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:03,160
Speaker 1: not the elite guys, but I got Jeremy Hill, Frank Gore,

686
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:05,440
Speaker 1: and Melvin Gordon with my picks after that, all great

687
00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:07,160
Speaker 1: guys that was very happy to get and felt like

688
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:10,120
Speaker 1: I rounded out then rather than sacrificing or reaching to

689
00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:11,520
Speaker 1: be like, oh, I need to get two running backs

690
00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:13,440
Speaker 1: and the two wide receivers, I still had a well

691
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:15,840
Speaker 1: rounded deep roster with a lot of upside that I

692
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:17,960
Speaker 1: was very happy with. So you found value. That's a

693
00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:20,879
Speaker 1: great first of all, the great story. It really illustrates

694
00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:23,480
Speaker 1: what Matt Harmon is talking about. But um, but you

695
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:28,200
Speaker 1: basically found value in every round, regardless of the position,

696
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:31,120
Speaker 1: and I like that. There you go zero RB to

697
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:34,640
Speaker 1: me is what you said. It's an extra tool in

698
00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:37,920
Speaker 1: your tool kit so that when the draft doesn't necessarily

699
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:40,799
Speaker 1: fall the way you wanted to, you can adjust on

700
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,319
Speaker 1: the fly and then still be able to draft a

701
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:45,239
Speaker 1: very good team. And then on the flip side, my

702
00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:47,279
Speaker 1: dad was in that league with me as well. He

703
00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:49,880
Speaker 1: went with a couple running backs early grabbed Russell Wilson

704
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:52,360
Speaker 1: and Jordan Read so he kind of waited on wide receivers,

705
00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:54,560
Speaker 1: but by the same token, he found good value later

706
00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:57,760
Speaker 1: scooping up number one guys like Deshan Jackson and Tory

707
00:34:57,840 --> 00:34:59,960
Speaker 1: Smith and later round. So she still had a pretty good,

708
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:02,840
Speaker 1: good looking roster. Granted might be a little more fragile

709
00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:05,480
Speaker 1: than you would think than mine, but there's there's, you know,

710
00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:07,120
Speaker 1: multiple ways to do it. You just gotta go with

711
00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:09,000
Speaker 1: the flow of the draft and don't be so rigid

712
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:11,640
Speaker 1: and adapting a zero RB or not zero RB strategy.

713
00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,480
Speaker 1: As Adam Rank would say, be like them. I think

714
00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:16,520
Speaker 1: that's an important point too that we're talking about, you know,

715
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:18,560
Speaker 1: filling the roster and everything, because I think that's one

716
00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:21,040
Speaker 1: thing that people when you go, like when you pick

717
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:23,960
Speaker 1: four wide receivers like I did that one Moket James

718
00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:27,000
Speaker 1: co asked if I was crazy or you go take

719
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:28,640
Speaker 1: a zero r B approach, I think, and then you

720
00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:30,719
Speaker 1: tweet the roster out like everybody wants to tweet the

721
00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:32,480
Speaker 1: roster out after the draft, and everybody be like, oh

722
00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:34,680
Speaker 1: my god, that's such a good team. But the thing is,

723
00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:37,719
Speaker 1: you don't win the league at the draft. There's one

724
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:41,719
Speaker 1: part of the situation. Then there's the season making lineup decisions,

725
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:44,520
Speaker 1: there's waivers, there's trades, there's all these things, like you're

726
00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:46,640
Speaker 1: not set with this group. Like that's one thing that

727
00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:48,960
Speaker 1: I think people get so up in arms, but like

728
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:51,400
Speaker 1: you're really gonna start Frank Gore and like Garret Blunt

729
00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:55,359
Speaker 1: for every week. I'm like, no, dummy, you're not. I'm

730
00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:57,400
Speaker 1: not locked into this group. And it's the same thing, Like,

731
00:35:57,719 --> 00:36:00,680
Speaker 1: the point is not to build a balance roster. That's

732
00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:02,279
Speaker 1: a nice way to get fourth place if that's what

733
00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:05,120
Speaker 1: you're into. The goal is to score. The goal is

734
00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:07,600
Speaker 1: to score the most points. And the wide receivers score

735
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:09,799
Speaker 1: more points of running backs. Right now, that's just a fact,

736
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:12,160
Speaker 1: And I think I think that's an important distinction because

737
00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:13,719
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people go into their draft

738
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:16,680
Speaker 1: looking for balance, and yeah, that's nice, it's nice to

739
00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:18,880
Speaker 1: achieve that. But the fact of the matter is you

740
00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:21,200
Speaker 1: just want to score. So it doesn't really matter where

741
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:23,320
Speaker 1: the scoring is coming from as long as you're getting

742
00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:25,200
Speaker 1: it on a consistent basis. All right, there you go.

743
00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:26,960
Speaker 1: And by the same token, because you know, we were

744
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,359
Speaker 1: in a casual league. We did that the Marquette League

745
00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:31,280
Speaker 1: with my friends out here and somebody drafted a kicker

746
00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:33,239
Speaker 1: in like round seven or eight, not in an atom

747
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:36,600
Speaker 1: rank trolling Joe Way, I actually actually drafted that kicker.

748
00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 1: And you know, you understand, like some people and more

749
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:40,239
Speaker 1: casual players like, well, if you want to score, you're

750
00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:41,880
Speaker 1: trying to score the most points, why not get the

751
00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:45,360
Speaker 1: highest scoring kicker defense. But it's just the relative value

752
00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:47,600
Speaker 1: to taking them there when you could take in that

753
00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:50,360
Speaker 1: eighth round Marvin Jones or somebody who per his or

754
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:52,680
Speaker 1: his position is going to give you a much greater

755
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:55,000
Speaker 1: advantage when you can get you know, somebody that's much

756
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:57,400
Speaker 1: more replaceable in the later rounds at the kicker and

757
00:36:57,440 --> 00:36:59,680
Speaker 1: defense position. All right, let's talk about quarterback position, because

758
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:03,640
Speaker 1: casual leagues quarterbacks go way earlier than you will see

759
00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:07,880
Speaker 1: in sharp leagues. Um uh, you know, franchise, tell me

760
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:10,960
Speaker 1: why that's a bad strategy. And if you are gonna

761
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:13,600
Speaker 1: go quarterback early, which ones do you like? Well, it's

762
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:16,440
Speaker 1: a bad strategy to take quarterbacks early because the it's

763
00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:18,839
Speaker 1: such a deep position. And like I think last year,

764
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:22,520
Speaker 1: seventeen seventeen of the top twenty highest scores were all

765
00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:26,000
Speaker 1: quarterback quarterbacks, So week to week there's not much variation

766
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:28,320
Speaker 1: and then weren't you telling me, was that that the

767
00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:31,439
Speaker 1: difference between the tenth best quarterback and like the fifth

768
00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:34,600
Speaker 1: best quarterback was like twenty fantasy points stretched out over

769
00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 1: like sixteen weeks or man, even we can go down

770
00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:41,439
Speaker 1: to Philip Rivers. Last year two points is the QB

771
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 1: twelve Aaron Rodgers and or Drew Brees. The QB six

772
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:46,480
Speaker 1: had three d and six points, so it was basically

773
00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:52,040
Speaker 1: twenty points. It's nothing separated twelve from six barely barely

774
00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:53,640
Speaker 1: more than a point of game. That's nothing. But the

775
00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:55,640
Speaker 1: thing is, like in a casual league, if you start

776
00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:58,880
Speaker 1: seeing quarterbacks go, you might want to get a top

777
00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:02,239
Speaker 1: ten guy. If like seven or off the board by

778
00:38:02,239 --> 00:38:04,960
Speaker 1: the sixth round or something, people are starting to take them.

779
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:07,759
Speaker 1: If if you know your buddy always like has three

780
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:11,920
Speaker 1: quarterbacks on his roster just for no reason, people do that.

781
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:15,080
Speaker 1: People always draft two or three quarterbacks. That's the thing

782
00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:17,680
Speaker 1: I think when you were talking about more casual leagues

783
00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:20,359
Speaker 1: where people are drafting quarterbacks early, those people are more

784
00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:23,640
Speaker 1: likely to go and get a second quarterback. So it

785
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:26,080
Speaker 1: does become a little more important for you to make

786
00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:28,520
Speaker 1: sure you get one. You know, when when you have

787
00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:30,319
Speaker 1: when you were on teams that are drafting their second

788
00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:32,720
Speaker 1: quarterback and you don't have one yet. Then it starts

789
00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:35,239
Speaker 1: to get a little funny because we we talked about

790
00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:38,799
Speaker 1: it as casual leagues. But imagine if imagine if all

791
00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:41,520
Speaker 1: the sharps decided to do the exact same thing, you

792
00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:44,319
Speaker 1: could ice some guys out, man, Like it could. It's

793
00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:48,239
Speaker 1: it's an actually interesting strategy that I know that are

794
00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:52,200
Speaker 1: you suggesting collusion everybody? So you're like, all right, everybody,

795
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:54,719
Speaker 1: like you know one guy, you know, these two guys

796
00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:57,200
Speaker 1: never taken a quarterback in twelve. Let's all get two

797
00:38:57,280 --> 00:39:01,080
Speaker 1: quarterbacks before round save where that like eight guys or

798
00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:02,400
Speaker 1: something like, hey, okay, this is what we're gonna do.

799
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:05,120
Speaker 1: No no no, but listen when you especially if you're drafting

800
00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:09,080
Speaker 1: live in person, trust me, that stuff goes down. I'm

801
00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:11,719
Speaker 1: telling you. And it's so funny to see. But I

802
00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:14,480
Speaker 1: mean a couple of things here. For one, on this

803
00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:17,320
Speaker 1: whole thing, like even if everybody in the league takes

804
00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:21,040
Speaker 1: two quarterbacks, you can still wait around for like Alex

805
00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:24,279
Speaker 1: Smith and get seventeen points per game, like that same

806
00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:26,919
Speaker 1: same thing as Derek Carr scored last year. Like it's

807
00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:29,680
Speaker 1: it's not it's not sexy and it's scary. But and

808
00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:32,239
Speaker 1: the facts like the fact, but then the fact that

809
00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:35,560
Speaker 1: like everybody else is chasing these quarterbacks, then you're scooping

810
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:38,160
Speaker 1: up values at wide receiver impossible. And that's that's the

811
00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:41,280
Speaker 1: point of the late round quarterback strategy. You know. J. J. Zacharies,

812
00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:43,520
Speaker 1: who wrote literally wrote the book on late round quarterback.

813
00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:46,520
Speaker 1: He always says, like, it's not a game of chicken.

814
00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:48,640
Speaker 1: It's you don't like, you don't get the crown yourself,

815
00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:50,920
Speaker 1: the late round quarterback the winner because you took the

816
00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:53,839
Speaker 1: last guy. It's about finding value. So like if if

817
00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:55,200
Speaker 1: you're in a league where a bunch of like I'm

818
00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:57,719
Speaker 1: gonna league with a bunch of writers right now, and

819
00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:00,440
Speaker 1: I took Aaron Rodgers in the seventh round because he

820
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:02,360
Speaker 1: was there, and I was like, well, listen, I'm not

821
00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:05,839
Speaker 1: gonna take some some schmuck at wide receiver five. And

822
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:08,160
Speaker 1: if Aaron Rodgers is sitting there, you know, that's the

823
00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:10,640
Speaker 1: same thing as applying the late round quarterback strategy. It's

824
00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:13,520
Speaker 1: like beefing up those other assets. Then you wait around

825
00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:15,920
Speaker 1: and if he's there, you take I do I like it?

826
00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:18,120
Speaker 1: I like it a lot. It's still so crazy to

827
00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:20,399
Speaker 1: think about Aaron Rodgers going in the seventh round, right,

828
00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:24,719
Speaker 1: and it's like I would, and it's but it's it's

829
00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:27,359
Speaker 1: it's about having an inner draft flexibility, Like I never

830
00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:29,880
Speaker 1: go into a draft thinking I'm taking a quarterback in

831
00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:32,000
Speaker 1: a single digit round, but when one falls to the

832
00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:34,880
Speaker 1: appropriate area, that's like, well all right. But here's the

833
00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:38,879
Speaker 1: other thing too, about drafting a quarterback super late and trying, again,

834
00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:41,040
Speaker 1: as you mentioned, trying to find value. And you know,

835
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:42,920
Speaker 1: guys will point to oh, Eli Man top ten, Oh

836
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:44,560
Speaker 1: Blake Bortles came out of nowhere, it was the top

837
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:48,319
Speaker 1: five quarterback. That's fine if you're the most active dude

838
00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:51,000
Speaker 1: on the waiver wire. But what happens if you were

839
00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:53,680
Speaker 1: a guy that you know, again you're just a dude.

840
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:59,160
Speaker 1: The LA everybody should read. It's a great read, especially

841
00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:01,160
Speaker 1: if you you know you it got sucked into a

842
00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:03,720
Speaker 1: work league or your your guy friends and your girlfriends

843
00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:05,440
Speaker 1: are like, oh, let's let's do a fantasy leaguing, like

844
00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:08,680
Speaker 1: I don't want to do that. James gives you kind

845
00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:10,600
Speaker 1: of a round Bay round guy, how to draft the

846
00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:13,640
Speaker 1: best set it and forget it team and still be competitive,

847
00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:16,440
Speaker 1: but probably not win your league, but requiremential effort. It's

848
00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:18,279
Speaker 1: it's a good reading. There you go. I've gotten good

849
00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:21,040
Speaker 1: feedback online about it too, so it's been fun. But no,

850
00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:23,560
Speaker 1: I mean again, it's it's really interesting because you know,

851
00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:26,440
Speaker 1: I know Michael Fabiano is such a proponent of waiting

852
00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:29,239
Speaker 1: on quarterbacks, but I would say this, in like the

853
00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:31,840
Speaker 1: eight leagues he's in probably seven of them, he's the

854
00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:35,960
Speaker 1: most active guy, and buy a mile right in in

855
00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:39,080
Speaker 1: other leagues where it's much more competitive, Gosh, it's hard

856
00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:42,399
Speaker 1: to find those waiver wire quarterbacks because other guys are

857
00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:44,759
Speaker 1: doing the exact same thing that you want. Especially trying

858
00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:46,960
Speaker 1: to find those guys, a lot of people will you'll speculate,

859
00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:49,960
Speaker 1: you know, and you see a guy who maybe had

860
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:52,399
Speaker 1: a good week, or you know there's a running back

861
00:41:52,480 --> 00:41:53,960
Speaker 1: or a wide receiver who might be a little ding

862
00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:56,200
Speaker 1: that you speculate, who's the who's the next man up,

863
00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:58,040
Speaker 1: and you take a chance on that, or you're or

864
00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:01,839
Speaker 1: you're speculating about you're in week one and you know

865
00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:04,480
Speaker 1: that your week three match up for let's say you've

866
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:06,439
Speaker 1: got Blake Borders, your week three matchup for Blake Borders

867
00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:08,320
Speaker 1: is terrible. Well, you're gonna look on the waiveryone, I

868
00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:10,640
Speaker 1: see who's got a very favorable Week three matchup, and

869
00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:12,680
Speaker 1: then you'll play those matches and that That's what I'm saying.

870
00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:15,399
Speaker 1: It's very interesting, the whole waiting on the quarterback thing.

871
00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:18,839
Speaker 1: There is value in taking a quarterback early if you

872
00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:21,800
Speaker 1: get a guy who is going to be absolutely crushing

873
00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:23,680
Speaker 1: it every single week. If you're going to take what

874
00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:25,520
Speaker 1: we're talking to talk about this with Dave Damashek in

875
00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:27,200
Speaker 1: the newsroom today, if you're going to take one of

876
00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:30,799
Speaker 1: those early quarterbacks, and you certainly can, you want to

877
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:32,360
Speaker 1: target the guy that you think is going to be

878
00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:36,560
Speaker 1: the quarterback one, not a quarterback one, like the overall

879
00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:38,879
Speaker 1: quarterback one. And the thing is like, if you get

880
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:42,920
Speaker 1: that guy like Cam Newton last year or your luck boom,

881
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:45,880
Speaker 1: you know, great. But if you miss on that guy,

882
00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:48,359
Speaker 1: you've sunk a fourth round pick into a guy that

883
00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:52,279
Speaker 1: is giving you barely above replaceable level production and you

884
00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:54,960
Speaker 1: missed out on a running back or wide receivers. All right,

885
00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:58,600
Speaker 1: let's talk about handcuffs. A beard hair on the sorry

886
00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:02,160
Speaker 1: wow wow, that was t m I big time. Um.

887
00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:07,200
Speaker 1: Let's talk about handcuffs. Running back handcuffs. It's a it's

888
00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:09,759
Speaker 1: it's a strategy that's been super popular and fantasy for

889
00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:12,000
Speaker 1: a long time. Um Matt Harmon loved to get your

890
00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:14,400
Speaker 1: take because I know that you don't like this strategy.

891
00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:20,040
Speaker 1: You think it's as noted contrary was well he he

892
00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:25,120
Speaker 1: blasts this strategy, used the word as well. The thing

893
00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:27,959
Speaker 1: is And this is another thing that I talked about

894
00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:31,520
Speaker 1: in UM the wide receiver heavy piece. We are not

895
00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:33,919
Speaker 1: as good at predicting things as we like to think

896
00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:36,920
Speaker 1: we are, even as like I mentioned that wide receivers

897
00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:40,160
Speaker 1: are much more consistently easy to predict than running backs.

898
00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:42,560
Speaker 1: The highest year of those last three years of terms

899
00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:45,040
Speaker 1: of a DP finishing within twelve spots of they're finished,

900
00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:49,200
Speaker 1: and that was a big outlier year for running backs

901
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:52,160
Speaker 1: in two thousand fourteen. The normal is like, we're just

902
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:53,920
Speaker 1: not good at predicting things. And I think that is

903
00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:57,360
Speaker 1: that is very shockingly All these all these quote unquote

904
00:43:57,360 --> 00:43:59,239
Speaker 1: experts and gurus don't really know what the hell they're

905
00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:03,640
Speaker 1: talking about. We're all just here playing a guessing game anyway. Sorry, Ed. Yes,

906
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:06,759
Speaker 1: And I think that's really apparent with the running back

907
00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:09,200
Speaker 1: position in terms of who the handcuffs are going to

908
00:44:09,239 --> 00:44:12,359
Speaker 1: be because like guys like Thomas Rawls were big time

909
00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:14,600
Speaker 1: back up running backs that came in Shine, Spencer Wearing,

910
00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:17,440
Speaker 1: Charch Handrick West, but people were drafting Nile Davis is

911
00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:20,160
Speaker 1: a handcuff to that's from Charles. People were drafting, you know,

912
00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:23,000
Speaker 1: is it Kristin Michael's, is it Rob Roberts? That Fred

913
00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:25,080
Speaker 1: Jackson turned out to be none of those guys. So

914
00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:27,560
Speaker 1: that's one reason that it's a big struggle. Another reason

915
00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:30,279
Speaker 1: that I don't really like to use UH picks on

916
00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:34,560
Speaker 1: handcuffs is because you're essentially picking a player that you're

917
00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:38,080
Speaker 1: hoping is never gonna see the field, and that to

918
00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:40,600
Speaker 1: me just bothers me and it becomes very hard to

919
00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:43,080
Speaker 1: hold those guys through the bye weeks. But when those

920
00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:45,600
Speaker 1: bye week gaunt Let's come, it's brutal to have to

921
00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:47,759
Speaker 1: be holding a backup running back, and normally those guys

922
00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:52,000
Speaker 1: get dropped. So I don't necessarily like drafting handcuffs because

923
00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:55,080
Speaker 1: there's really a lack of clarity and standalone value. I

924
00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:57,879
Speaker 1: do like potential handcuffs like Spencer Ware, who I think

925
00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:00,920
Speaker 1: is the best backup running back in the NFL right now,

926
00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:05,080
Speaker 1: to own in fantasy because he gives you likely sandalone

927
00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:06,719
Speaker 1: value if he's going to be a goal lineback, and

928
00:45:06,719 --> 00:45:09,200
Speaker 1: I've heard whispers out of Kansas City that he could

929
00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:12,439
Speaker 1: do that and more this year. Also, he's just he's

930
00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:16,399
Speaker 1: really really freaking good. Yeah, it's really good. And so

931
00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:18,640
Speaker 1: that's also a plus. And I think that he has

932
00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:20,760
Speaker 1: a clear role. We have clarity that he's the backup

933
00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:23,359
Speaker 1: running back. It's been the reports at all the all

934
00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:25,360
Speaker 1: that season. So you're looking for guys like that if

935
00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:27,319
Speaker 1: you're going to handcuff. So I don't necessarily like to

936
00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:29,560
Speaker 1: chase handcuffs and draft because it's it's just not as

937
00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:32,280
Speaker 1: clear as we think it is. So it's Charles Like

938
00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:34,439
Speaker 1: it's like I think most casual fans would say Charles

939
00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:36,680
Speaker 1: Sims is a handcuff, but I don't think and this

940
00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:38,439
Speaker 1: is where I get that a lot, Like you didn't

941
00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:40,560
Speaker 1: mention Charles Sims in your article. Charles Sims has a

942
00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:42,719
Speaker 1: ninth round a DP at worst, and he goes in

943
00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:45,040
Speaker 1: the seventh, eighth round. Sometimes like, that's not a handcuff

944
00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:47,080
Speaker 1: to me that you're you're taking if you're taking a

945
00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:49,720
Speaker 1: guy in the sixth or seventh eighth round, you're hoping

946
00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:52,520
Speaker 1: he's going to have value for you. And and Sims

947
00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:56,200
Speaker 1: is not a backup, he's a rotational tandem. Tandem running

948
00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:58,640
Speaker 1: backs aren't the same thing with a guy like Tevin Coleman.

949
00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:00,239
Speaker 1: I don't view that as a handcuff because you have

950
00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:02,600
Speaker 1: to spend an early pick in most drafts to get him.

951
00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:05,400
Speaker 1: So those guys to me are in handcuffs. Handcuffs. Handcuffs

952
00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:07,759
Speaker 1: to me coming like the double digit rounds, the last

953
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:10,680
Speaker 1: few rounds. Otherwise you're taking an asset that you're hoping

954
00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:12,680
Speaker 1: you have to use. But it sounds like what you're

955
00:46:12,680 --> 00:46:15,840
Speaker 1: doing is you're separating the term handcuff running backs to

956
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:19,480
Speaker 1: a rotational running back. They're not all backups are handcuffs.

957
00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:23,120
Speaker 1: All handcuffs are backups. And I think that's that last part.

958
00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:25,800
Speaker 1: I think that's evolved over the last few years. Every

959
00:46:25,920 --> 00:46:29,160
Speaker 1: we've seen more of these committees developed too, So handcuff

960
00:46:29,239 --> 00:46:32,279
Speaker 1: isn't what it used to be, right for sure. Now,

961
00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:34,200
Speaker 1: I will say as much as I don't like handcuffing

962
00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:36,800
Speaker 1: and drafts, I do like at the end of the

963
00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:38,759
Speaker 1: season and you know, where's the ways off from that,

964
00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:41,680
Speaker 1: Like in the stretch run after the bie weeks are

965
00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:44,520
Speaker 1: over starts, scooping up those backup running backs in the

966
00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:46,480
Speaker 1: event that a starter gets hurt because and you don't

967
00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:49,200
Speaker 1: even have to have it doesn't even be your handcuffing. Actually,

968
00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:51,080
Speaker 1: it's kind of a sharp move to roster other people's

969
00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:53,239
Speaker 1: handcuffs because you know, I know, I know people are like, well,

970
00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:55,759
Speaker 1: I want to have Derek McKinnon if Adrian Peterson goes down.

971
00:46:56,080 --> 00:46:59,520
Speaker 1: But if you have Adrian Peterson and D'Angel Williams and

972
00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:02,040
Speaker 1: then Leaving Bell goes down, you have Adrian Peterson and

973
00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:04,120
Speaker 1: let if youan Bells back up there, and so you

974
00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:06,040
Speaker 1: get two rb ones out of the deal. You know,

975
00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:08,560
Speaker 1: it's it's a guessing games that who's gonna get hurt? Anyways,

976
00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:10,879
Speaker 1: But I kind of like having the more upside play

977
00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:13,719
Speaker 1: of two potential rb ones other than just this RB

978
00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:16,680
Speaker 1: one to replace. But I like what you're thinking here,

979
00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:18,440
Speaker 1: all right, So how about it, guys? Can I go

980
00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:21,279
Speaker 1: around the horn? Can I get some favorite uh handcuffs

981
00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:23,880
Speaker 1: that that you guys do like if you employ this drougy,

982
00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:26,760
Speaker 1: who are you taking double digit rounds? Give me a handcuff?

983
00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:29,120
Speaker 1: Mg Um, I mean, I guess I got I've gotta

984
00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:31,520
Speaker 1: lean with with Harmon here and go with Spencer Wear.

985
00:47:31,560 --> 00:47:33,920
Speaker 1: I mean, I I don't. I don't think every running

986
00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:36,200
Speaker 1: back you draft needs a handcuff. I think, you know,

987
00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:38,799
Speaker 1: I think you're talking about guys sort of near the

988
00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:40,880
Speaker 1: top of draft. But again, like like, I think what

989
00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:43,399
Speaker 1: Harmon gonna saying is accurate in the sense that they're

990
00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:46,120
Speaker 1: just aren't. With so many running back committees, there just

991
00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:49,000
Speaker 1: aren't bona fide handcuffs anymore. It's not like it used

992
00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:50,600
Speaker 1: to be when you had a workhorse back that you

993
00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:52,560
Speaker 1: knew would get three hundred carries and then like, hey,

994
00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:55,040
Speaker 1: who's the number two guy? But I do think Spencer

995
00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:56,399
Speaker 1: Wear is a guy that you're like, And I think

996
00:47:56,400 --> 00:47:58,000
Speaker 1: I think all the other guys that we would consider

997
00:47:58,040 --> 00:48:00,439
Speaker 1: to be handcuffs probably pretty much are. I mean, maybe

998
00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:02,560
Speaker 1: Jerk McKinnon would be another one that I would consider.

999
00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:04,320
Speaker 1: There you go. Tim high Tower would be one that

1000
00:48:04,360 --> 00:48:06,600
Speaker 1: I would say leg I was going to mention him

1001
00:48:06,600 --> 00:48:09,600
Speaker 1: to he doesn't have you know, when Ingram's healthy, he's

1002
00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:12,000
Speaker 1: not seeing the field. But then we've already seen when

1003
00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:16,080
Speaker 1: Ingram goes down, which is James Cobe. Sure it's gonna happen.

1004
00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:19,239
Speaker 1: It's gonna happen. For it to happen. Uh, then he

1005
00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:21,040
Speaker 1: we know, I'm not saying I can't wait. I'm just

1006
00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:23,640
Speaker 1: saying it's gonna happen, right right, right, I tell her.

1007
00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:25,120
Speaker 1: But I was gonna actually say that. I think, and

1008
00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:27,759
Speaker 1: I thought, as some reports today, that McKinnon might have

1009
00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:31,200
Speaker 1: been earning himself a standalone role in the Minnesota offense

1010
00:48:31,239 --> 00:48:33,560
Speaker 1: as well. Like he's played so well this preseason. We

1011
00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:36,080
Speaker 1: know he's an athletic freak. He's done well before that.

1012
00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:38,560
Speaker 1: It almost, it almost might be a cat cat out

1013
00:48:38,600 --> 00:48:41,120
Speaker 1: of the bag situation with McKinnon where the Vikings know

1014
00:48:41,280 --> 00:48:43,480
Speaker 1: he's a difference maker and want to get him involved

1015
00:48:43,520 --> 00:48:45,960
Speaker 1: more so. He's one of those handcuffs that I'll definitely

1016
00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:47,799
Speaker 1: be throwing a dart at in the later runs. Last year,

1017
00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:49,880
Speaker 1: I was too early on it. He's a converted quarterback

1018
00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:53,240
Speaker 1: out of Southern and uh, he's still learning that position.

1019
00:48:53,280 --> 00:48:56,719
Speaker 1: But man, you look at his combined numbers and holy cow,

1020
00:48:56,840 --> 00:48:59,399
Speaker 1: he is a tremendous athlete. But you know, you don't

1021
00:48:59,400 --> 00:49:02,200
Speaker 1: think a p is hearing those whispers. He's been talking

1022
00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:05,200
Speaker 1: about all offseason about trying to work more into the

1023
00:49:05,200 --> 00:49:07,799
Speaker 1: passing game because he knows that's where the league is

1024
00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:09,320
Speaker 1: going and that's what he wants to be more involved.

1025
00:49:09,320 --> 00:49:12,960
Speaker 1: As Marcus Grant always says, it's good to want things

1026
00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:14,799
Speaker 1: such a it's such a huge it's such a huge

1027
00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:18,320
Speaker 1: difference between the two in the shotgun versus the is.

1028
00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:20,719
Speaker 1: I've been calling it like an oil and water situation,

1029
00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:23,759
Speaker 1: like Bridgewater just can't function from under center, so it

1030
00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:26,279
Speaker 1: seems and didn't for Peterson just can't function from the shock.

1031
00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:28,520
Speaker 1: Didn't you guys watched the game against San Diego. I

1032
00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:33,319
Speaker 1: think it was yesterday because Bridgewater Wunday Bridgewater, Bridgewater looked good.

1033
00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:37,240
Speaker 1: He put on a little clinic dig minute drive. Digs

1034
00:49:37,239 --> 00:49:39,000
Speaker 1: is the right great. I mean, we're getting off topic here,

1035
00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:41,680
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna be very interesting to see what how

1036
00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:45,359
Speaker 1: that offense shapes up this year franchise. So for my

1037
00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:48,719
Speaker 1: handcuffed picks, I'm gonna say Chris Johnson is probably my

1038
00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:51,880
Speaker 1: number one handcuff pick, just because we saw him do

1039
00:49:51,960 --> 00:49:54,719
Speaker 1: well in that offense last year. That anything happens that

1040
00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:57,040
Speaker 1: David Johnson, we know they can just plug him in.

1041
00:49:57,120 --> 00:49:58,759
Speaker 1: It's so interesting because he kind of doesn't fit that,

1042
00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:02,440
Speaker 1: you know, handcuff like mold, right, because it's like an

1043
00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:05,920
Speaker 1: older running back. That's true, that's true. All right, so

1044
00:50:05,960 --> 00:50:08,160
Speaker 1: there you go. All right, let's talky about auction strategies.

1045
00:50:08,360 --> 00:50:12,120
Speaker 1: Most have a budget about two, but there's two strategies. Basically,

1046
00:50:12,160 --> 00:50:15,160
Speaker 1: you can lay in weight, which is basically what a

1047
00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:17,520
Speaker 1: lot of folks do. But some people go hot and

1048
00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:20,800
Speaker 1: heavy early and get those heroes right off the top,

1049
00:50:21,239 --> 00:50:23,200
Speaker 1: and then they kind of round out their roster with

1050
00:50:23,239 --> 00:50:26,080
Speaker 1: a with a bunch of dart throws that they're hoping

1051
00:50:26,120 --> 00:50:29,960
Speaker 1: will pan out. Um and scrubs, stars and scrubs, studs

1052
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:32,600
Speaker 1: and duds, studs and duds, heroes and zeros, whatever you

1053
00:50:32,680 --> 00:50:34,399
Speaker 1: want to call it. The thing is, if you miss

1054
00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:38,120
Speaker 1: on those studs, you're you're in bad shape. That's but see,

1055
00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:40,560
Speaker 1: and I think that's why I don't know. I've I've

1056
00:50:40,560 --> 00:50:42,680
Speaker 1: been in auction draft for you know, the past five

1057
00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:45,360
Speaker 1: or six years here, and and those years that I

1058
00:50:45,440 --> 00:50:48,359
Speaker 1: do go big on guys, they don't work out. They

1059
00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:51,280
Speaker 1: never work out. They never hook out. You gotta hit because,

1060
00:50:51,280 --> 00:50:54,680
Speaker 1: as you mentioned, Harmont, it's so hard to predict these things.

1061
00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:59,879
Speaker 1: Um so yeah, so uh is does anyone advocate this

1062
00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:02,680
Speaker 1: go big and and and maybe kind of you know,

1063
00:51:02,719 --> 00:51:04,120
Speaker 1: kind of round out your roster with a bunch of

1064
00:51:04,120 --> 00:51:08,120
Speaker 1: one dollar player strategies. I like it. It's fun, it's

1065
00:51:08,160 --> 00:51:10,440
Speaker 1: fun to do, and it's great because because you can,

1066
00:51:10,520 --> 00:51:12,719
Speaker 1: that's the beauty of auctions. You have much more control

1067
00:51:12,840 --> 00:51:15,040
Speaker 1: over who you get than in a snake draft. Like

1068
00:51:15,440 --> 00:51:18,520
Speaker 1: you cannot get Julio Jones and Odell Beckham in a

1069
00:51:18,800 --> 00:51:21,359
Speaker 1: in a snake draft. You can in an auction draft, right,

1070
00:51:21,360 --> 00:51:22,759
Speaker 1: And so if you want to pay up for those guys,

1071
00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:24,759
Speaker 1: that's great. You also have to know where you're gonna

1072
00:51:24,800 --> 00:51:27,520
Speaker 1: be taking value at other points, and quarterback is obviously

1073
00:51:27,520 --> 00:51:30,560
Speaker 1: the biggest, Like god, you will see you know, starting

1074
00:51:30,760 --> 00:51:34,200
Speaker 1: good usable fantasy quarterbacks go for literally a dollar. Like here,

1075
00:51:34,239 --> 00:51:35,840
Speaker 1: I just pulled up our mock draft for Seltsmen did

1076
00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:39,439
Speaker 1: an auction. I got Tyrode for four, Dalton for one uh.

1077
00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:42,480
Speaker 1: Marcus Mariotta went for one dollar to wilk Blake Bortles

1078
00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:44,880
Speaker 1: went for two, and Emi Manning went for five to

1079
00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:48,719
Speaker 1: rank uh. Cynthia got Tony Roman for two dollars r

1080
00:51:48,800 --> 00:51:53,200
Speaker 1: I p uh. Ben Roethlisberger went for two dollars in

1081
00:51:53,239 --> 00:51:56,440
Speaker 1: this league, Like you can get good quarterbacks for late

1082
00:51:56,480 --> 00:51:58,600
Speaker 1: even Drew Brees went for only nine bucks in this league.

1083
00:51:58,640 --> 00:52:01,359
Speaker 1: There's nothing worse than when you take the bait on

1084
00:52:01,360 --> 00:52:04,440
Speaker 1: one of those early quarterbacks and then you're sitting there

1085
00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:06,759
Speaker 1: you drop a dirty spot on Russell Wilson and you're like,

1086
00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:09,480
Speaker 1: oh man, and then everybody's plucking these values off. But

1087
00:52:09,719 --> 00:52:11,600
Speaker 1: that's an important thing too. So if you're gonna go

1088
00:52:11,719 --> 00:52:13,840
Speaker 1: with those those studs and duds and you want to

1089
00:52:13,880 --> 00:52:16,239
Speaker 1: be creating value early on in your or later on

1090
00:52:16,280 --> 00:52:18,839
Speaker 1: in your draft, throw out this is one of the best.

1091
00:52:19,120 --> 00:52:20,799
Speaker 1: See this is why I like auction because it's uh

1092
00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:23,839
Speaker 1: psychological like game, and you got to feel the room

1093
00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:26,120
Speaker 1: and know, you know, the people like foss out guys

1094
00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:28,839
Speaker 1: that you don't want so have like every time you're

1095
00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:30,400
Speaker 1: on the clock. If you don't want to get an

1096
00:52:30,400 --> 00:52:33,720
Speaker 1: early quarterback, toss out Andrew Luck, toss out Aaron Rodgers.

1097
00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:35,359
Speaker 1: Like if you're like me and you don't want Todd

1098
00:52:35,360 --> 00:52:38,600
Speaker 1: Gurley at value this year, toss out Todd Girl because frenzy,

1099
00:52:38,640 --> 00:52:41,120
Speaker 1: but yeah, because they will people go nuts or on

1100
00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:43,840
Speaker 1: the inverse. If you're wanting to create value, you know,

1101
00:52:43,880 --> 00:52:46,240
Speaker 1: and you like a really a sleeper like Rashad Jennings.

1102
00:52:46,440 --> 00:52:47,960
Speaker 1: Have that be like the first guy you throw U

1103
00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:50,760
Speaker 1: because everybody's like, I'm not spending my money on Jennings

1104
00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:52,960
Speaker 1: when there's all these other players on the board. And

1105
00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:54,919
Speaker 1: then you take Jennings for you know, like five bucks

1106
00:52:55,000 --> 00:52:57,520
Speaker 1: or something. Early on, veterans with big names always go

1107
00:52:57,640 --> 00:53:00,480
Speaker 1: for a lot more than they should. Early part of

1108
00:53:00,520 --> 00:53:02,879
Speaker 1: the early part of the draft, early part of the auction, Harmon,

1109
00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:05,720
Speaker 1: you that worked well with you with Randall Cobb somehow,

1110
00:53:05,760 --> 00:53:07,719
Speaker 1: Like in the beginning bidding with all those guys in

1111
00:53:07,719 --> 00:53:09,719
Speaker 1: that auction, Like you know, a Rob you bought him

1112
00:53:09,719 --> 00:53:11,960
Speaker 1: for forty three. I got Julio for like fifty something.

1113
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:13,640
Speaker 1: All these guys are going off the top top. I

1114
00:53:13,680 --> 00:53:15,560
Speaker 1: forget if you suggested him for somebody else. I don't

1115
00:53:15,560 --> 00:53:17,440
Speaker 1: think I did. You got somebody put out random Cob

1116
00:53:17,520 --> 00:53:20,240
Speaker 1: Like in the early goings, Harmon got him for sixteen bucks,

1117
00:53:20,719 --> 00:53:23,879
Speaker 1: which I got Michael Floyd for twenty Markus got John

1118
00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:27,520
Speaker 1: Brown for twenty two A Marii Cooper went to Scuty three.

1119
00:53:27,600 --> 00:53:29,000
Speaker 1: Like you look at some of those other guys that

1120
00:53:29,040 --> 00:53:30,960
Speaker 1: are kind of in cops tier and you're like, wait,

1121
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:33,239
Speaker 1: what yeah, And and that is a really important thing

1122
00:53:33,239 --> 00:53:36,680
Speaker 1: you mentioned tears. I have teared rankings on the site

1123
00:53:36,760 --> 00:53:39,640
Speaker 1: like used tears in auction. That's not just a plug

1124
00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:42,239
Speaker 1: for you to click on my article, but this make

1125
00:53:42,280 --> 00:53:46,520
Speaker 1: sure you article. But you know you can put out

1126
00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:49,400
Speaker 1: the cheat sheet. Somebody made a nice cheat sheet there

1127
00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:53,320
Speaker 1: that's really helpful, like used tears, because then you can say, like,

1128
00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:55,440
Speaker 1: if a run is starting to happen, then you can

1129
00:53:55,480 --> 00:53:57,840
Speaker 1: get in on the middle of it. Because it's important

1130
00:53:57,840 --> 00:54:00,840
Speaker 1: to think of things as like you they're in drafts

1131
00:54:00,840 --> 00:54:02,239
Speaker 1: and you don't want to be at the peak of

1132
00:54:02,320 --> 00:54:04,480
Speaker 1: the You you want to be in that light down

1133
00:54:04,640 --> 00:54:06,680
Speaker 1: slope in the middle there, because you don't want to

1134
00:54:06,719 --> 00:54:09,200
Speaker 1: be at the beginning when people are that feeding frenzy.

1135
00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:10,680
Speaker 1: You don't want to be at the end of people

1136
00:54:10,680 --> 00:54:12,960
Speaker 1: are like, oh crap, all the Tier three receivers are

1137
00:54:13,160 --> 00:54:15,040
Speaker 1: going off the board. I gotta spend big on this one.

1138
00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:16,400
Speaker 1: You don't want to be the last guy they TiO.

1139
00:54:16,440 --> 00:54:18,200
Speaker 1: You want to be in the middle. It's so interesting too,

1140
00:54:18,239 --> 00:54:20,759
Speaker 1: because you know, um, I wasn't involved in that, but

1141
00:54:20,880 --> 00:54:23,200
Speaker 1: I am such a pot ster because if I see

1142
00:54:23,200 --> 00:54:25,560
Speaker 1: a guy like Randall cob at sixteen, I don't even

1143
00:54:25,680 --> 00:54:27,759
Speaker 1: even if I don't want him, I'm no click. You

1144
00:54:27,800 --> 00:54:30,600
Speaker 1: gotta be careful with that too. Totally. It's the best.

1145
00:54:30,640 --> 00:54:32,200
Speaker 1: I love it. You can get caught holding the bag

1146
00:54:32,239 --> 00:54:34,480
Speaker 1: and you're like, you gotta be careful if you're gonna

1147
00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:37,640
Speaker 1: it's you know, if you're gonna places, you could be

1148
00:54:37,800 --> 00:54:39,880
Speaker 1: like Stephan Diggs can go this cheap, and then you're like,

1149
00:54:39,880 --> 00:54:42,000
Speaker 1: oh crap, I just landed Steffan Diggs for thirty How

1150
00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:44,840
Speaker 1: did you well? Cynthia made a note of that. I

1151
00:54:44,920 --> 00:54:46,759
Speaker 1: think she was trying to run up Jordan read on

1152
00:54:46,840 --> 00:54:48,239
Speaker 1: us because she didn't want him that much, and she

1153
00:54:48,320 --> 00:54:52,359
Speaker 1: ended up with him and Dylan and uh, Fabiano got

1154
00:54:52,440 --> 00:54:54,440
Speaker 1: locked into that too with Jarvis Landry. So you got

1155
00:54:54,960 --> 00:54:57,080
Speaker 1: for like thirty five or you gotta be careful and

1156
00:54:57,120 --> 00:54:58,919
Speaker 1: no one to get out. Yeah, And I I love

1157
00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:00,279
Speaker 1: to be the other person on the out of it,

1158
00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:02,440
Speaker 1: Like if I know somebody's price enforcing me, I'll be like, oh,

1159
00:55:02,560 --> 00:55:06,480
Speaker 1: let me yank this right out there? You go, all right?

1160

1227
00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:43,760
Speaker 1: weekend was Taman paula of whom I am a big

1228
00:58:43,800 --> 00:58:46,680
Speaker 1: fan already, and watching them live was kind of next level,

1229
00:58:46,960 --> 00:58:49,080
Speaker 1: to the point that I have now started my own hashtag.

1230
00:58:50,200 --> 00:58:53,760
Speaker 1: I want Taman Paul to play the Super Bowl. Stared

1231

1232
00:58:56,720 --> 00:58:58,200
Speaker 1: of the guy, and we're gonna jump in. It is

1233
00:58:58,240 --> 00:59:02,320
Speaker 1: hashtag team for number four s b L. I I

1234
00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:04,200
Speaker 1: feel as if franchise can't get on board with that,

1235
00:59:04,200 --> 00:59:06,600
Speaker 1: should we start d m B for Super Bowl? I don't.

1236
00:59:06,640 --> 00:59:08,520
Speaker 1: I mean, but unless I loved and B like, I

1237
00:59:08,560 --> 00:59:10,040
Speaker 1: don't know that, I don't know that they're quite right

1238
00:59:10,040 --> 00:59:11,640
Speaker 1: for the Super Bowl, and I love damon they would

1239
00:59:12,840 --> 00:59:16,640
Speaker 1: They would upstage the Super Bowl. Everybody would be like, Oh,

1240
00:59:16,680 --> 00:59:18,840
Speaker 1: I guess we can go watch that stupid football game

1241
00:59:18,960 --> 00:59:23,200
Speaker 1: for a few minutes. Of course, that's a little weird

1242
00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:26,800
Speaker 1: for Super Bowl audience. I would say cold play, Yeah,

1243
00:59:26,840 --> 00:59:29,720
Speaker 1: cold plays mainstream, They're not as good as Taman Paula.

1244
00:59:29,920 --> 00:59:32,160
Speaker 1: I'm saying, I mean, that's not the question. So anyway,

1245
00:59:32,200 --> 00:59:34,439
Speaker 1: that is my own little personal crusade and I will

1246
00:59:34,480 --> 00:59:37,120

1334
01:03:38,880 --> 01:03:42,480
