24
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,640

25
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 1: like a worse soun over here, right, I would not

26
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 1: do that. I mean, my family is back on the

27
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 1: other side of the country, so there's a zero point

28
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 1: zero percent chance my flights back home are a little

29
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,200
Speaker 1: more expensive and a little longer than a quick trip

30
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 1: up to the Bay Area. My mom lives Inland. She

31
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 1: lives about forty minutes away from me. I don't know

32
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 1: if I would do that. All right, Well then you're

33
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 1: a jerk. But okay, all right, Uh, big show in

34
00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 1: front of us here today we're gonna be talking about

35
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:03,120
Speaker 1: re acting to the top fifty fantasy players of steen

36
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: that show. Uh had a nice little, nice little run

37
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 1: this past week. Right it was it was last week

38
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 1: last week, a one week special kind of NFL Fantasy

39
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:17,799
Speaker 1: Live presents the top fifty players. Often we had some,

40
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 1: I want to say, a couple of high level meetings

41
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 1: about the rankings Uh, there were a couple of arguments,

42
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 1: as was per usual, but overall pretty good show. We're

43
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,919
Speaker 1: gonna get to our PPR mock draft that we did

44
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 1: yesterday for you folks who are in PPR leagues and

45
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:39,519
Speaker 1: curious about uh such results. But let us start with

46
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:43,799
Speaker 1: the top end lines, the camera highlights in the world

47
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 1: of sport. Breaking news. Continue to follow breaking news news, kids,

48
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,240
Speaker 1: has your wife all right? We'll start in New England.

49
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 1: Tom Brady thankfully, thank you Lord Jesus. Hooray. Tom Brady

50
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 1: has given up his appeal. It will not be going

51
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:12,359
Speaker 1: to the Supreme Court. It never would have anyways, but

52
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 1: it would have gone there, but they would have just

53
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 1: given it the nah wave and that would have been

54
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 1: the end of it. So Tom Brady, thankfully. Uh. The

55
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,799
Speaker 1: deflate gate saga is now over. He will be serving

56
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:28,960
Speaker 1: his suspension as was per dished out originally. So many

57
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 1: months ago. God, it feels like forever ago that that

58
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,640
Speaker 1: decision came down, But it's been like what five some

59
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 1: days since, like the a f C f C Championship

60
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 1: game or something like that. I think the around the

61
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 1: NFL post had it. It's been an epic saga. I

62
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 1: lived in a different state even legally drink when that

63
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 1: first happened. God, that is fabulous. That is fabulous. Um right,

64
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 1: so the deflate gate saga is now over. We know

65
00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 1: exactly how much time Tom Brady is going to h

66
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 1: What does it mean from a fantasy perspective, gentleman, Well,

67
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 1: I wrote this up when the suspension was first came back,

68
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 1: and you know, we did not know whether or not

69
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 1: it was going to end. But I mean it pushes

70
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 1: Tom Brady back to a nice late round value in drafts.

71
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,839
Speaker 1: But you need to get a stop gap quarterback of

72
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 1: some sorts m garoppolo games rather not do Jimmy Garoppolo.

73
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 1: You could either stream the position or pick up a

74
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 1: couple of guys. There are a few guys that you

75
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:27,440
Speaker 1: could also nab really late um as Fabriano did in

76
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 1: our mock draft, that that have a pretty good schedule

77
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 1: to start up. Kirk Cousins, Eli Manning, and Jake Cutler.

78
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,479
Speaker 1: We'll all have a couple of nice games against either

79
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 1: the NFC East, the Detroit Lions, New Orleans Saints, so

80
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 1: they all have some nice matchups. You can mix and

81
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: match from those guys. Um and Marcus Mariota two gets

82
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 1: to play play Detroit in one of those weeks. So

83
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:47,599
Speaker 1: there's a lot of options to get if you scoop

84
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 1: up Brady late, grab one of these other guys late,

85
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 1: stream them off the waiver wire, and you'll be able

86
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 1: to to cover yourself for those first four games. Where

87
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,479
Speaker 1: is he going you think in typical ten teamers, I

88
00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,160
Speaker 1: think right around that tenth round range where FABS took him.

89
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,119
Speaker 1: Yet where FABS took him still a good draft price

90
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 1: round ten. I'm not doing it. I like I did

91
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,280
Speaker 1: it in a couple of Best Ball drafts because you

92
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,159
Speaker 1: are already kind of inherently going to take a second

93
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,480
Speaker 1: quarterback because you're not doing waivers or anything. It stinks

94
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:17,120
Speaker 1: to burn that roster spot for four weeks. That's a

95
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:19,160
Speaker 1: it's a real chort because you're gonna be I mean,

96
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 1: you're gonna be tempted to cut Brady at least twice,

97
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 1: picking up some type of like you know, hot waiver

98
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 1: wire guy early in the season, because that's what I think.

99
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 1: Hard to carry back up quarterback, and not to mention

100
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 1: just round ten in general, it is like such an

101
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 1: awesome sleep around, you know what I mean, Like eight, nine, ten, eleven,

102
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,039
Speaker 1: I love picking sleepers in those rounds. I don't know

103
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,839
Speaker 1: for me. Um, I get it if you want to

104
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,679
Speaker 1: take Tom Brady there and you know he's most likely

105
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 1: going to be gone by round ten, but I just

106
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 1: can't do it. I mean, three four games is a

107
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,360
Speaker 1: third of the fantasy regular season. I know when he

108
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:56,040
Speaker 1: comes back, you are expecting him to go gangbusters. Yeah,

109
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:57,920
Speaker 1: you better hope you do. That's what I'm saying. You know,

110
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 1: if you're holding a roster spot for a quarterback for

111
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 1: four weeks, you're thinking, okay, and it's really what it's

112
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 1: it's actually five, isn't it. Well they have their bye

113
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 1: week five, I think, and then he comes back in

114
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 1: weeks six, and I might be mistaken. Let's check that

115
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,440
Speaker 1: out quick. I believe, I believe you are right about that.

116
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,120
Speaker 1: But yeah, and like so to that point though, if

117
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 1: that's crazy, What if he what if he comes back

118
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 1: and he's just a tick off of you know, like

119
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 1: what we're expecting from normal Tom Brady not to mention

120
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 1: last four weeks of the season eighteen fantasy points, eighteen

121
00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:33,480
Speaker 1: fantasy points, eleven fantasy points, five point to six fantasy points.

122
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:36,160
Speaker 1: What if he what if he's that guy? Closer to

123
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 1: that than when he was early in the season. I

124
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 1: don't know, there's all the angry Brady narratives and let's

125
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 1: not even let's not even bother addressing that he got

126
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 1: that out of the system last year. Right, how much,

127
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:49,280
Speaker 1: I mean, how much can one person be angry? Right?

128
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 1: Eventually you have to settle down, right, So I was

129
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:54,280
Speaker 1: always mistaken there. Bye week is in November, but but

130
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 1: still that means you're without him for that week as

131
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,599
Speaker 1: well in the regular season because it comes early enough

132
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,719
Speaker 1: where he you'll see basically without your starting quarterback. That

133
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,279
Speaker 1: you're investing that tenth round picking for a third for

134
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,160
Speaker 1: a third of the year. It's like, there is there

135
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,039
Speaker 1: is value there. I just I don't see myself doing

136
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 1: it in a ton of leagues just for that, because

137
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 1: there's so many other great quarterbacks that you can get

138
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 1: after Brady or even around that same value, Like Carson

139
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 1: Palmer went in that range. FABS in our draft, took

140
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 1: Eli Manning two rounds later to back him up. I

141
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 1: got Philip Rivers there, you got Derek Carr. Tyrod didn't

142
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 1: even get drafted. Tony Romo was there, Kirk Cousins, Like,

143
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 1: there's just there're so, im, I don't think Blake Bortles

144
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 1: got drafted. You're right, Wow, he didn't. He didn't. That's wow.

145
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 1: That's that's what I'm saying. What I'm saying. Rank also

146
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 1: didn't take a quarterback. Yeah, freaking Rank, I don't even

147
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 1: notice that. That's a that's love that move, that's that's beautiful.

148
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:51,720
Speaker 1: He wrote about it in his draft strategy, which teaser

149
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 1: you guys can read at the nfl dot com slash

150
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:57,560
Speaker 1: Fantasy Mock Draft. We have the whole draft breakdown, team

151
00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 1: by team analysis. But Rank said, he pointed out, He's like,

152
00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not gonna dray. I didn't reft the quarterback.

153
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 1: He's like, I pick up one of these guys right

154
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 1: away and stream him off the waiver wire. So but yeah,

155
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 1: I guess the point is you can definitely invest in time,

156
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 1: Brady if you want to, but you're you're taking a

157
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 1: big risk. I feel like we bury the lead though,

158
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 1: because the big fantasy news yesterday, I think no doubt

159
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 1: about it Arian Foster signing with Miami um And there

160
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 1: was a collective groan from anyone who has you know,

161
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 1: either hyped or or already bought shares of j G.

162
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 1: I e UM, we we're gonna see another running back

163
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 1: by committee situation there in Miami. And it's like, how

164
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 1: many running back committees can there possibly be in the NFL?

165
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:41,679
Speaker 1: We have another one here in Miami. I mean, I

166
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:46,080
Speaker 1: think all of them there could be thirty two. So

167
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 1: I wrote up the Arian Foster post yesterday after he signed,

168
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,280
Speaker 1: and I really think we've got to be a little

169
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 1: bit careful with this situation. You know, not even I

170
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 1: mean the injury thing all in of itself is one issue.

171
00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:00,319
Speaker 1: But when Foster came back last year, you know, we're

172
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 1: used to him being a dominant fantasy back. His nineteen

173
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 1: yards from scrimmage is the highest per game figure since

174
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:08,680
Speaker 1: two thousand ten. Were used to being that player. But

175
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:11,480
Speaker 1: he averaged two point six yards per carry last year.

176
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,080
Speaker 1: That was by far the worst of any of those

177
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 1: backs that Houston was trotting out. UM. So he might

178
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,960
Speaker 1: not be able to have, like, be able to hold

179
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 1: up to first and second down work anymore at this

180
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 1: point of his career, but I think where he will

181
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,840
Speaker 1: be very valuable as as a receiver. UM Pro Football

182
00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:31,160
Speaker 1: Focus credited him with the seven point six yards after

183
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 1: the catch per catch, So, I mean, that's a pretty

184
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,240
Speaker 1: good indication of his ability out in space. I think

185
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,760
Speaker 1: he'll still be a really helpful asset there. But I

186
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 1: don't think we can just expect him to come and

187
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:45,920
Speaker 1: usurp all of the touches and make js I completely irrelevant. Oh,

188
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,199
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think anyone. Here's the thing. I

189
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,960
Speaker 1: don't know if anyone is investing a even a middle

190
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 1: round draft pick in Aryan Foster. I just think that

191
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 1: it absolutely plummets j h i e s value. I

192
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,200
Speaker 1: don't know if it plummets though. Uh And I know

193
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:03,559
Speaker 1: he was in your Mustown running Backs piece. He was.

194
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:07,120
Speaker 1: I dropped him a tier in my rankings after the

195
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 1: Foster news. Yeah, I dropped him from sixteen in Tier

196
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 1: four to twenty three in Tier five. I mean I

197
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,840
Speaker 1: I called him a middle round RB one in my

198
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 1: Mustoe running Backs And now you're kind of you're backing

199
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,560
Speaker 1: off of that. Yeah, now I'm backing off that was

200
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 1: based on Look, like, who else do they have. They're

201
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:27,440
Speaker 1: gonna make j GI their third down guy too, so

202
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:31,079
Speaker 1: he's gonna play all three downs. And Adam Gaze came

203
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:34,240
Speaker 1: out and said something along the lines of you know,

204
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 1: we don't want to have a running back rotation. So

205
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:41,480
Speaker 1: I kind of based my analysis off coaches coach speak

206
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 1: like that, which was a mistake of course. But I

207
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:46,240
Speaker 1: mean they don't have a lot of depth as it is.

208
00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,360
Speaker 1: So they got Foster from is that true? I mean

209
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 1: they spent a pretty good high round draft pick on

210
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 1: Kenny Drake. He hasn't really practiced yet this offseason, but

211
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,760
Speaker 1: you know he he fills that third down role. You

212
00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 1: would think, Um, my question is too and I was

213
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 1: talking about this with Franchise yesterday. Is with that coach speak,

214
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 1: maybe that is exactly what Adam Gates means. And it's

215
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,680
Speaker 1: not gonna be all right as I you get two downs, Foster,

216
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:14,280
Speaker 1: you get third down that it's gonna be ay, these

217
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 1: are your two series. We're gonna spell you. Foster. You

218
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:18,960
Speaker 1: come in for a series and he doesn't run as much,

219
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 1: but he's still dangerous out of the backfield. So I

220
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 1: don't know it's coach speak. It's July, but but I'm

221
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:27,559
Speaker 1: with I'm with you, guys. I definitely am dropping a

222
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,160
Speaker 1: down a tier. He went with him sitting at that

223
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,559
Speaker 1: like RB two tier right in there, you were kind

224
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 1: of hoping that he'd get some passing work. But now

225
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,800
Speaker 1: with Foster's arrival and Drake already there, as you mentioned,

226
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:44,199
Speaker 1: his reception and receiving work ceiling is is frighteningly low.

227
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 1: So he becomes more in the Jeremy hill vain where

228
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 1: he's could just be a two down guy. Can I

229
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:50,800
Speaker 1: can I throw this out there though we have been

230
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 1: talking about all off season Jeremy Lankford, this, that, and

231
00:11:55,000 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 1: the silver thing is this not the exact same situation

232
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:03,720
Speaker 1: for j G. I. They brought in c J Anderson,

233
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 1: they tried to you know, work him out. Um, then

234
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,440
Speaker 1: they actually go and work out and sign Arian Foster.

235
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:13,560
Speaker 1: All the tea leaves are there that the coaching staff

236
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 1: maybe doesn't like Jed Gian and and keep in mind

237
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 1: this is a new coaching staff. They didn't draft j

238
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 1: GI right, So like for me, I think all the

239
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 1: warning signs are there that hey, you know what, maybe

240
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 1: they they're not very high on the JI that they're

241
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 1: gonna go full blown committee here. And that's why I'm

242
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:35,640
Speaker 1: saying for me, we've been hammering Jeremy Lankford, hammering him

243
00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:39,120
Speaker 1: uh this offseason because of the whole committee thing. And

244
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:42,439
Speaker 1: I don't feel like we're doing that because j j

245
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 1: I is this huge unknown in Miami and for me,

246
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 1: I just think the tea leaves are there. I just

247
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 1: don't believe in it. I mean, I think it's all

248
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:51,960
Speaker 1: about price with any with any of these running backs

249
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:55,319
Speaker 1: that are gonna kind of get absolutely fault. Absolutely thanks

250
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 1: to Mike Clay from ESPN for essentially slaughtering Jeremy Lankford's

251
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:03,080
Speaker 1: name in the streets of Fantasy Twitter, and he was

252
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 1: he was like that helicopter with a big bucket of

253
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:10,080
Speaker 1: water rest fire, Like the the Lankford love was starting

254
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 1: to heat up, and he was that helicopter just dumped

255
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,439
Speaker 1: water all over it. He even has in his Twitter

256
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:20,040
Speaker 1: bio it's not personal Jeremy Langford. Sometimes you get associated with,

257
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 1: like really loving a player. Other times you get associated

258
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 1: with player. But because of of guys like Mike Clay

259
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:26,320
Speaker 1: and I know you guys have talked about on the

260
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 1: podcast all off season, Lankford's price is pretty depressed. You

261
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 1: can start to get him in like the seventh eighth

262
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,240
Speaker 1: round range in some of these drafts. That's much better

263
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 1: than what it was. I'm totally fine, Like we know

264
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,840
Speaker 1: he has whether you think he stinks or not, whatever,

265
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:43,560
Speaker 1: you know, he has big game potential, absolutely absolutely all right.

266
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 1: Carlos Williams has spent four games Jonathan Williams in Buffalo,

267
00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:50,000
Speaker 1: d U Y. I don't know what's gonna happen there,

268
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:54,319
Speaker 1: um right now, it's Lashawn McCoy, Lashawn McCoy, Lashawn McCoy.

269
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 1: You would think Mike Gillis Lee steps in and does

270
00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,960
Speaker 1: some third down work is an offer sheet to Reggie Bush?

271
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,520
Speaker 1: Did they not? Oh? That's right, that's right, that's right.

272
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,200
Speaker 1: So I think all the all these things that have

273
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 1: happened in this backfield have really helped Shady McCoy though,

274
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:11,319
Speaker 1: like he he you know, he was getting a ton

275
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:13,679
Speaker 1: of touches last year and he just lost some work

276
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 1: around the goal line to ty Rod and in the

277
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,239
Speaker 1: red zone to Carlors. They have last year two touchdowns,

278
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:20,880
Speaker 1: two or three I think not good. But with these

279
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 1: with these guys out of the picture now they it's

280
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,240
Speaker 1: a ground and pound offense that Rex Ryan always employs,

281
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 1: and with not as many stable options right behind Shady,

282
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 1: he could see a ton of work early on and

283
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 1: it's becoming a little bit more of a value at

284
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,680
Speaker 1: his like third round price tag so far this off season.

285
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 1: It makes me love Mike Gillisli a lot more. Um.

286
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 1: I get that he's, you know, supposed to fill that

287
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:43,600
Speaker 1: third down role, but look, Shady McCoy man has gotten

288
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 1: a ton, I mean just a ton of work over

289
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 1: the last three or four seasons, and that makes me worried.

290
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 1: He's not necessarily the most durable dude in the whole

291
00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,680
Speaker 1: world as we saw last year. Um, I think Mike

292
00:14:55,680 --> 00:15:00,080
Speaker 1: Gillisle is super solid handcuff um in a very an

293
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:03,040
Speaker 1: interesting sleeper at that McCoy is closing in on two

294
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:07,400
Speaker 1: thousand touches since two thousand nine. It's a lot. That's

295
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:10,600
Speaker 1: a crazy amount of work, guys. I mean, seriously, I'm

296
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,280
Speaker 1: looking at there. I'm looking at the our lads. Uh

297
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:17,320
Speaker 1: depth chart for the Buffalo Bills. It's Lashawn McCoy not gilstlely. Uh.

298
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 1: They still got Jonathan Williams in there. But you know,

299
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:22,240
Speaker 1: big question Mark James Wilder, who I really really like

300
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 1: at a Florida State and they got boom here in

301
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 1: there as well. He's lurking around. Yeah, I think James Wilder,

302
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 1: You're right? Is it? Is? It? Very interesting? Deep dive

303
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 1: name but man, I don't know. Like I said, I

304
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,200
Speaker 1: like the explosive ability that Mike Gillstly has for sure.

305
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 1: Um our buddy fourteen team mocker on Twitter, he writes

306
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 1: for Rhodo viz uh. He actually wrote an article a

307
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:49,160
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago UM talking kind of talking down

308
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 1: Carlos Williams because everyone's so high on him, and well

309
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:56,800
Speaker 1: he came in just super overweight, right right, This was yeah,

310
00:15:56,840 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 1: this was UM maybe before that news came out, but

311
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 1: he was talking about Mike Gillesley and everyone talks about

312
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:06,680
Speaker 1: how efficient Carlos Williams was last year with his nine

313
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:12,720
Speaker 1: touchdowns or whatever times, Gillislee was actually more efficient UM

314
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 1: in terms of rushing Fantasy points per attempt. So all right, yeah,

315
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,240
Speaker 1: you had a couple of long touchdown runs, which is

316
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 1: funny because athletic profile is kind of yeah. Yeah, and

317
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 1: it was at the end of the year when when

318
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,640
Speaker 1: fantasy people weren't really paying that much attention anymore and

319
00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 1: stuff like that. So this is definitely a running back

320
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:34,640
Speaker 1: situation that we're going to have to keep a really

321
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 1: really close eye on a training camp. I think I

322
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 1: think it'll be very telling to see who gets Um,

323
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 1: you know what kind of work there, And and again too,

324
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 1: how much work is Lashawn McCoy gonna get. Really, honestly,

325
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:47,800
Speaker 1: I want to be too surprised if he gets no

326
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 1: work at all because of again, because of the workload

327
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:53,360
Speaker 1: that we talked about, UM coming into this season. Gosh,

328
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:55,920
Speaker 1: she's gotten so much work that it really does concern me.

329
00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 1: UM a bit for Lashawn McCoy. And again, I think

330
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:03,560
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to handcuff them with with Gillesley, UM

331
00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:05,880
Speaker 1: deep in your draft. All right, we'll go to Pittsburgh.

332
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:09,320
Speaker 1: Levion Bell d'angela Williams are expected to, I guess be

333
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:12,400
Speaker 1: a two back approach there in Pittsburgh. The thing they

334
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,159
Speaker 1: talked about was I think Roethlisberger had the quote that

335
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:18,879
Speaker 1: potentially in hurry up situations or you know, um and

336
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:21,560
Speaker 1: third down plays and two minute trials, they could actually

337
00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,560
Speaker 1: have both backs out on the offense because they're dynamic

338
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 1: and they have different skill sets with Bell, you know,

339
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:30,000
Speaker 1: basically operating as a receiver to and d'angela Williams being

340
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,200
Speaker 1: a strong back who can catch past out of the backfield.

341
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:35,320
Speaker 1: So it's it doesn't seem like they're going to do

342
00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:37,120
Speaker 1: this all the time, and I know Harmon was digging

343
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:38,919
Speaker 1: up some stats before the pod that that kind of

344
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,600
Speaker 1: supports that. But it is interesting to note that they're

345
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:45,359
Speaker 1: already talking about working d'angela Williams in more. Although granted

346
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:47,440
Speaker 1: it's with left Bell on the field right, but knowing

347
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:49,199
Speaker 1: his injury history, as we've discussed in the POT in

348
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:51,960
Speaker 1: the past, it's might be a little cause for concern. Uh.

349
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 1: Levian Belt d'angela Williams were on the field last year

350
00:17:55,320 --> 00:18:00,280
Speaker 1: for just six snaps. Yea, yeah, if they if they

351
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:03,879
Speaker 1: even alternated their backs, it would be way out of

352
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:06,800
Speaker 1: the norm for the Pittsburgh offense. In two thousand and fourteen,

353
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:10,639
Speaker 1: Bell played three percent of the team snaps. Guys like

354
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 1: Jamal Charles play Marshawn Lynch and those guys are bell

355
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:19,400
Speaker 1: cow workhorse guys. The lowest snap percentage for any Pittsburgh

356
00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 1: starting back last year was d'angela Williams with pent and

357
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:26,360
Speaker 1: either Bell or Williams went over of the team snaps

358
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:30,200
Speaker 1: in eleven sixteen games. I mean, they're a primarily one

359
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 1: back offense. We saw in the playoffs after both of

360
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:35,200
Speaker 1: those guys were hurt, they just pretty much shoved fitz

361
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 1: Tousson into that role, you know, Like, so didn't they

362
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:40,880
Speaker 1: do beent Take like two years ago as well went

363
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,800
Speaker 1: down same stuff. So it's it's it's something like we

364
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:45,840
Speaker 1: have to wonder are they like is this just an

365
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 1: offseason news thing, because it's way out of what they've

366
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 1: been doing normally. But like l Hart said, it makes

367
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,880
Speaker 1: a lot of sense because their star running back who

368
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:56,239
Speaker 1: the team is, He's in a contract year, right, and

369
00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:59,120
Speaker 1: like they clearly would want to invest in a talent

370
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 1: like this, but there's a lot of injury concerns, so

371
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:03,399
Speaker 1: it might be smart for them to do that. I

372
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:06,200
Speaker 1: think there's I think there's that, and I just think

373
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:08,600
Speaker 1: they know that D'Angel Williams is one of their more

374
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:11,480
Speaker 1: talented players. Why not get him out on the field

375
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:16,600
Speaker 1: as much as possible. Um, Look, they've they signed Ladarius Green,

376
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:19,040
Speaker 1: which I think it's great. I think a lot of

377
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,200
Speaker 1: people are are really excited about that. They're going to

378
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:23,639
Speaker 1: have to change their offense a little bit to to

379
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:28,119
Speaker 1: really maximize, um the talent that they have versus the

380
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:30,800
Speaker 1: talent that they wish they had. They wish they had

381
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:34,399
Speaker 1: a three, right, they wish that Martavis Bryant but they

382
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 1: don't have them right now. What they got is Marcus

383
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 1: Wheaton and d HB. Sammy one of those two guys,

384
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:46,320
Speaker 1: either Sammy Coats or DHB. It's gonna be like it's

385
00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:48,879
Speaker 1: gonna fall backwards into like a Ted Gin sort of

386
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:50,919
Speaker 1: season last year where they just catch a bunch of

387
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:54,680
Speaker 1: long I can't tell you how many times I've looked

388
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:59,680
Speaker 1: at Sammy Coats and like mox or NFL's Scott Fishball

389
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,080
Speaker 1: and a been like, I don't know, I can't do it.

390
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 1: I don't think Sammy Coates is all that good. Uh,

391
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:08,359
Speaker 1: but I also don't really care because he's a like

392
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:11,920
Speaker 1: high end athlete on the cheap in a really good offense.

393
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,200
Speaker 1: It's true. No, that's that's why. Like he didn't put

394
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:16,399
Speaker 1: great things on tape, like he he struggled a lot

395
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,639
Speaker 1: last year and I didn't even love his college tape.

396
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:22,160
Speaker 1: But but he's one of those guys offseason narrative has

397
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:25,480
Speaker 1: been in uh, in the facility all the time, learning,

398
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:29,320
Speaker 1: working on his craft, staying in shape. Yeah. So so

399
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:34,640
Speaker 1: here's oh, he's an absolute Adonis. But here's the that's right. Uh.

400
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 1: He he is a guy that you would think I

401
00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,159
Speaker 1: would love because combined numbers out of control. But the

402
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,560
Speaker 1: guy can't catch the ball, so there's a problem. There's

403
00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 1: a problem there. But I will say this though, Um,

404
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,439
Speaker 1: what we know from the Steelers offense, right, they like

405
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:50,040
Speaker 1: to basically go shotguns, spread it out and and chuck

406
00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 1: that ball. Um can they do that with the three

407
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:55,960
Speaker 1: wide receivers they have. I don't know if they can.

408
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,199
Speaker 1: So here's the thing, like from an X and this

409
00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:01,520
Speaker 1: is what we know, which is they like to go

410
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,640
Speaker 1: three wide receivers. But this is what they have. They've

411
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:07,320
Speaker 1: got a super athletic tight end that they invested in,

412
00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:10,400
Speaker 1: and they've got two running backs that are really really good. Yeah,

413
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,479
Speaker 1: I mean Ben mentioned that Bell could work as more

414
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:14,159
Speaker 1: of a receivers. It would be interesting to see if

415
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 1: they employed this kind of thing. But Bell, that's what

416
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 1: I'm saying, that goes out to the slot like Reggie

417
00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:20,399
Speaker 1: Bush did back in like two thousand six with the

418
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 1: Saints all the time. He'd just line up wide and

419
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 1: if there's like a mismatch with a linebacker or something,

420
00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 1: forget about it. I mean, they they'd have to revamp

421
00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:31,359
Speaker 1: their offense a bit. Um. And so that's is what

422
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:34,240
Speaker 1: is very curious to me, are they going to actually

423
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:37,560
Speaker 1: do that to fully utilize their talents? Again, something we're

424
00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:39,400
Speaker 1: gonna have to watch for in training camp. I'm really

425
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:43,040
Speaker 1: interested to see what the Steelers you're gonna do on offense.

426
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:44,879
Speaker 1: All right, let's react to the Top fifty show, shall we.

427
00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:47,920
Speaker 1: You could go to NFL dot com slash Fantasy Top

428
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:51,960
Speaker 1: fifty again NFL dot com slash Fantasy Top fifty for

429
00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:55,520
Speaker 1: analysis and a link to all the videos to all

430
00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:58,080
Speaker 1: of the episode. Each each episode of the show last

431
00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 1: week revealed ten players and so forth, and after each

432
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,399
Speaker 1: show I would do a little recap of the guys,

433
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:07,119
Speaker 1: why they probably made it on the list, why they

434
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:09,879
Speaker 1: were overvalued, why they were undervalued, and then for the

435
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 1: last four episodes, we actually did periscope like Talking Dead

436
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:15,800
Speaker 1: style show if you've seen that with Chris Hardwick. Those

437
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 1: are all in the articles as well and in the

438
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:23,800
Speaker 1: hard Stop at Chris Hardwick. Shows are talking bad shows. Listen.

439
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 1: I don't want to get on a tangent here. I'm

440
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,800
Speaker 1: not Adam Rank, but I like they're just I don't

441
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:30,439
Speaker 1: need to watch a show about a show that I

442
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:34,760
Speaker 1: just watched here, but no, and I disagree. I disagree.

443
00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:37,520
Speaker 1: Let let me let me ask you this. The great shows,

444
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,640
Speaker 1: the great shows that you have watched, and the great

445
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 1: movies too. The number one thing you do afterwards is

446
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:45,879
Speaker 1: you want to talk to a buddy about Yes, so

447
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:47,960
Speaker 1: I'll talk to my buddy about him not listening to

448
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,159
Speaker 1: some dude on TV who I don't care about. I

449
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,480
Speaker 1: don't want to hear his opinion. But that's the genius

450
00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:55,080
Speaker 1: of this show. I understand. It's a good concept. I'm

451
00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:58,399
Speaker 1: just talking about me here. You're always talking about you, right,

452
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:05,399
Speaker 1: that is accurate? All right? Uh com slash Fantasy top fifty.

453
00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:07,960
Speaker 1: All right, let's dig right into it. Uh top ten?

454
00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:09,719
Speaker 1: Did you guys agree with it? Not agree with it?

455
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 1: What do you guys think? I mean, we talked to

456
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:14,560
Speaker 1: us in the periscope, but I think in harmon and

457
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 1: I agreed. Um. DeAndre Hopkins love him. Don't think he

458
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:20,320
Speaker 1: should be in the top ten at this point. I

459
00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:22,920
Speaker 1: don't think he's a first round pick. Agree with that? Um.

460
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:24,879
Speaker 1: The volume is probably not gonna be there as much.

461
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:26,639
Speaker 1: They're gonna be a better team, They're not gonna be

462
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,080
Speaker 1: as in negative game scripts talked about first date games

463
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 1: last year. The defense gave up like twenty six points

464
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:34,399
Speaker 1: per game. He saw fourteen targets a game. Second half,

465
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:36,680
Speaker 1: they gave up thirteen points a game. He saw ten

466
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:39,880
Speaker 1: targets a game. Much more normal workload. Great players still

467
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:41,639
Speaker 1: gonna be in our wide receiver one. Don't think you

468
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 1: should be in the first round. The reason I would

469
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:45,960
Speaker 1: disagree with that, I mean, obviously I liked hop I

470
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 1: loved hop Um. The talent level is the talent level

471
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,280
Speaker 1: not there. I mean, he is just on He's a

472
00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:56,200
Speaker 1: phenomenal talent. That's why I'm like, Hey, of course he's

473
00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 1: a top ten guy because, like you look at the

474
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:01,399
Speaker 1: talent level, he's right there. So I mean, obviously, I

475
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,880
Speaker 1: think we all like Hopkins. You know, Gill was high

476
00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:05,399
Speaker 1: on him last year. I was high on him last year.

477
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 1: Thin last year. I mean, he's a he's a stud

478
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:10,919
Speaker 1: level wide receiver talent. But there's a lot of stud

479
00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 1: level wide receiver talents at the NFL right now. I mean,

480
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 1: and Gal was right. The volume concerns are real. And

481
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,120
Speaker 1: the first eight weeks last season he was a wide

482
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:22,160
Speaker 1: receiver two overall from ten to seventeen, and second half

483
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:23,959
Speaker 1: he was wide receiver twelve. And I think that's like

484
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:25,960
Speaker 1: his floor he's like, like Alex said, he's going to

485
00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:28,560
Speaker 1: be a wide receiver one. But when they got on

486
00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:32,679
Speaker 1: their winning script, they were running much more. They were

487
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:35,280
Speaker 1: running much more run plays. They had three point five

488
00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:37,159
Speaker 1: rush plays per drive in the second half of the

489
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,400
Speaker 1: season as opposed to two point six rush plays per

490
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:41,359
Speaker 1: drive in the first half of the season. So they

491
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 1: were just much more of a run heavy, run center focused,

492
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 1: and they did invest in a big time running back.

493
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:49,200
Speaker 1: So I think that there's just no way Hopkins is

494
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,359
Speaker 1: going to see a hundred and ninety targets again. They

495
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 1: don't want they don't want to be that kind of offense.

496
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:55,960
Speaker 1: He'll still be great, but I just think like there

497
00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:59,440
Speaker 1: are guys like a j Greene who's got a bunch

498
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:01,880
Speaker 1: a much better a chance to own a bigger percentage

499
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:03,960
Speaker 1: of his team's offense on a team that's that just

500
00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:06,520
Speaker 1: doesn't have the other options that Houston does. Right, like said,

501
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:08,680
Speaker 1: James's an elite level talent, But I want that elite

502
00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:11,320
Speaker 1: level talent in the first round married with the potential

503
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 1: for huge locked in volume, which is the same reason

504
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:16,359
Speaker 1: like we all love Allen Robinson, I'm not going to

505
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:18,720
Speaker 1: draft Allen Robinson in the first round, especially because his

506
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:20,960
Speaker 1: red zone volume could take a hit with the arrival

507
00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 1: of Chris Ivory. Yes, sorry, Harmony, you're not going to

508
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,240
Speaker 1: take a rob in the first round either. I would

509
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,200
Speaker 1: take him at the end of the first round if

510
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:30,680
Speaker 1: if I because he's my wide receiver five at the

511
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,000
Speaker 1: start of my second tier. But that second tier is

512
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:36,000
Speaker 1: so fat, like it literally goes from five to eleven

513
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,679
Speaker 1: in in my rankings. Like, and you could tell me

514
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,000
Speaker 1: that any one of those guys from Allen Robinson, Keenan

515
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:44,320
Speaker 1: Allen As Bryant, Jordy Nelson, DeAndre Hopkins, all Sean, Jeffrey,

516
00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:46,359
Speaker 1: Mike Evans could finish his wide receiver five, and I wouldn't.

517
00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:48,320
Speaker 1: I wouldn't buy. But I'm not. I'm not. I'm not

518
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:53,400
Speaker 1: an objective on this matter. So uh, let me run

519
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 1: down the top ten very quickly. So Antonio Brown, leve

520
00:25:56,160 --> 00:26:00,560
Speaker 1: Bell one, to Odell Beckham three, Julio Jones four, Girly,

521
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:05,480
Speaker 1: David Johnson, d hop seven, Adrian Peterson eight, Zekiel Elliott nine,

522
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:09,640
Speaker 1: Rob Gronkowski ten. I believe that Adrian Peterson's value we're

523
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,920
Speaker 1: we're seeing. I think wide variants because I think in

524
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:14,879
Speaker 1: in in common drafts. I think we're seeing them go

525
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:18,440
Speaker 1: a lot earlier, but I think there's age concerns there

526
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,879
Speaker 1: as well. Plus for me, I just think the offense

527
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:24,040
Speaker 1: isn't dynamic enough, uh to fully utilize that. I think

528
00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:27,160
Speaker 1: Jerick McKinnon is gonna step forward. But whatever, Um, if

529
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:31,440
Speaker 1: I get Adrian Peterson at eight nine, I'm through the moon. Yeah.

530
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:34,880
Speaker 1: I think I'd be super happy with Adrian Peterson at

531
00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 1: eight or nine. And which is what I've been seeing,

532
00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:40,840
Speaker 1: um in a lot of ten team drafts, is that

533
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 1: good running back talent is falling to you man at

534
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:46,439
Speaker 1: eight or nine. And that's kind of the strategy. And

535
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:50,200
Speaker 1: I know with you're all on board with this that

536
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:53,000
Speaker 1: if you can get that supreme running back talent, go

537
00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:55,720
Speaker 1: for it. Because when you if you zig, when they zag,

538
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,560
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, like, you can actually build

539
00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:01,720
Speaker 1: a pretty darned good team hundred percent. And actually, spoiler alert,

540
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 1: that's exactly what franchise did even in our PPR mock draft,

541
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:06,400
Speaker 1: which we're going to talk about in just a moment here,

542
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:08,359
Speaker 1: and I think he had my favorite team in the draft.

543
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,800
Speaker 1: There you go, um. But the other one I think

544
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:13,240
Speaker 1: is interesting is a lot of people, especially on Twitter

545
00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:16,000
Speaker 1: and stuff, we're reacting and people are scared of the

546
00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:18,880
Speaker 1: unknown commodity of Ezekiel Elliott being a rookie and being

547
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 1: a top ten pick. But even in like a worst

548
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:25,600
Speaker 1: case scenario, he's still gonna see probably around two hundred

549
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:29,760
Speaker 1: seventy two touches in that offense. Because even before Mark

550
00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:31,720
Speaker 1: Murray's huge breakout when he was a little bit hurt

551
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:34,600
Speaker 1: and they rotated in like Joseph Randall and I think

552
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 1: tar Choyce might have still been there, Murray saw around

553
00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:39,760
Speaker 1: two hundred and seventy touches. And then last year with

554
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,199
Speaker 1: McFadden when they were splitting carries with Randall early and

555
00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:44,080
Speaker 1: then he took over, he still saw like two hud

556
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 1: seventy touches And that is an elite NFL running back workload.

557
00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:50,080
Speaker 1: That two seventy four touches would rank in the top

558
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:53,679
Speaker 1: ten last year. So Elliott, even if they rotate in Morris,

559
00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:55,159
Speaker 1: and even if they you know, try to ease him

560
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:56,320
Speaker 1: in a little bit, it's still going to see a

561
00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:58,960
Speaker 1: ton of work. And for a guy of his talent level,

562
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:01,199
Speaker 1: you can't shy from that volume. I don't think in

563
00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:03,119
Speaker 1: the first round, even if you don't believe in the

564
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:07,399
Speaker 1: ceiling of of Elliott. The floor is so appealing just

565
00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 1: because you mentioned the volume, and I mean, everybody's favorite

566
00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:12,879
Speaker 1: punching bag for you don't know how to turn, like

567
00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:15,280
Speaker 1: you can't guarantee anything coming from the college to pro

568
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,960
Speaker 1: level is Trent Richardson at the running back position and

569
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,280
Speaker 1: even as a rookie when he was still not very good,

570
00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:22,119
Speaker 1: he was the running back seven in PPR and the

571
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:24,399
Speaker 1: running back nine in standard. And I think that's like,

572
00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:26,640
Speaker 1: that's that floor for Ellington. He's not going to drop

573
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:31,160
Speaker 1: below bit Elliot. Sorry, Bruce Ellington on the mind always

574
00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:35,760
Speaker 1: always al right, Uh, most over ranked player in your mind?

575
00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:38,360
Speaker 1: With oh in the whole list? Wow, thrown it out

576
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 1: at me, I mean probably Let me flip back to

577
00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:45,480
Speaker 1: one of the other things. I think we had, Uh.

578
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:47,280
Speaker 1: For one, we had Tyler eight for too high because

579
00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 1: this list was compiled before his UM for his injury

580
00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:54,200
Speaker 1: news came out. Um. And then I also think we

581
00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:57,440
Speaker 1: have um, Thomas brawl is too high. We have him

582
00:28:57,480 --> 00:29:00,680
Speaker 1: a twenty three overall. Um. This was also still before

583
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:03,840
Speaker 1: because everybody was a lot more optimistic about Rawles before

584
00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:06,720
Speaker 1: like more information came out because everybody's like, well, maybe

585
00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:09,080
Speaker 1: he'll be great. It could work out. But I think

586
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:11,400
Speaker 1: Rawls Roles definitely needs to fall for US twenty three

587
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:13,960
Speaker 1: overalls way too high. I agree that. I agree. I

588
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:16,920
Speaker 1: think he could even drop into the forties. I think

589
00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 1: i'd be more comfortable with him in that in that

590
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:21,240
Speaker 1: fifth round range. Right, Yeah, I'm pretty sure FABS got

591
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:23,640
Speaker 1: him in the sixth round in our PPR mont. He did.

592
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 1: And and that's the funny thing, you know, because he

593
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:27,920
Speaker 1: got injured so late in the season and Fabs a

594
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:29,600
Speaker 1: slop gung ho on him, and I was like, bro

595
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:33,720
Speaker 1: he broke an ankle. There was like ligament damage and

596
00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:36,800
Speaker 1: it's not a it wasn't a high ankle. So he

597
00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:41,080
Speaker 1: broke and was really bad. That is not good. Um.

598
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 1: So I wasn't too too high on him going in.

599
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 1: But franchise, what do you think most overranked or maybe

600
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:50,440
Speaker 1: even most under ranked player. I was gonna say Rawls

601
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:53,720
Speaker 1: in terms of for my overranked at least in terms

602
00:29:53,720 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 1: of under rank. Um. Maybe I feel like people are

603
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,960
Speaker 1: down on Doug Martin this year, and I understand that,

604
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:05,120
Speaker 1: you know, Charles Sims is going to be worked in.

605
00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:08,480
Speaker 1: People are so scared it Doug But are they Yeah,

606
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:10,600
Speaker 1: they are, and everyone's like, oh, well, he's injury prone.

607
00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 1: Am I getting the five hundred yard Doug Martin or

608
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:16,640
Speaker 1: the hundred yard Doug Unton and like he was, Yeah,

609
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,040
Speaker 1: he was injured. That's why he had five hundred yards.

610
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:22,360
Speaker 1: All these running backs have injury risk. There's not one

611
00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 1: of them without injury risk. Anyone can get injured. That's

612
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 1: why it's such a fragile position and there's a zero

613
00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 1: running back strategy. But I like Doug Martin, like I

614
00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:35,120
Speaker 1: like Doug Martin over DeVonta Freeman. Doug Martin right in

615
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:39,440
Speaker 1: our Fantasy fifty was ranked seventeen, uh, just ahead of

616
00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:42,400
Speaker 1: Jordy Nelson, Alshon, Jeffrey and Sammy Watkins. So that puts

617
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,560
Speaker 1: them like middle seventh, second round. I'd probably put him

618
00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:49,200
Speaker 1: like early second round. Um, would you take Jordy Nelson, Alshon,

619
00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:52,520
Speaker 1: Jeffrey Sammy Watkins before Doug Martin? I think almost. I

620
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:56,280
Speaker 1: think what we're seeing in drafts is pretty much everybody's

621
00:30:56,320 --> 00:31:00,400
Speaker 1: taken those three guys ahead of Doug Martin. He fell

622
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,080
Speaker 1: in our PPR mock because of the presence of Charles Simms,

623
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 1: But I think in the standard mock. It was a

624
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,520
Speaker 1: toss up with those guys at the middle the end

625
00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:09,520
Speaker 1: of the second round, which is kind of how I

626
00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:10,960
Speaker 1: feel depends on what I get in the first and

627
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:15,000
Speaker 1: how I'm feeling it that day. Alright, worst exclusion from

628
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:19,120
Speaker 1: the list completely, not on the list completely, not just

629
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:21,560
Speaker 1: outside of the Fantasy Top fifty. Can I say my

630
00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 1: Can I say my most under ranked first or overranked? Well,

631
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:29,360
Speaker 1: my most under My most underranked is Keenan Allen. He's

632
00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:32,760
Speaker 1: behind thirty five overall. He's behind Damarius Thomas, A Marii Cooper,

633
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:38,400
Speaker 1: Brandon Cooks, Mike Evans, Brandon Marshall, Sammy Watkins, and then

634
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:39,960
Speaker 1: there's a lot more after that. But I think you can,

635
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,160
Speaker 1: you know, you can start the painting. But yeah, I mean,

636
00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,280
Speaker 1: I don't know. Keenan Allen, like is one of the

637
00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:48,160
Speaker 1: surest bets of the season to me. I think he's

638
00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:50,520
Speaker 1: going to finish in the top six among wide receivers.

639
00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:52,959
Speaker 1: He was on pace for that last year. A Chargers

640
00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:54,400
Speaker 1: offense is going to throw the ball a lot, and

641
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:56,880
Speaker 1: he's going to own the large majority share of the targets.

642
00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 1: And he's just he's just a great player. He just

643
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:03,320
Speaker 1: thumb teams with those short intermediate crossing routes. That just

644
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:05,600
Speaker 1: fits perfectly with Philip Rivers skill set. I think we

645
00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:07,840
Speaker 1: started to all see it all come together last year.

646
00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:10,000
Speaker 1: And I know people bring up injuries with Alan, which

647
00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:12,200
Speaker 1: I kind of get. But at the same time, the

648
00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:14,920
Speaker 1: injury that ended his season last year, it was a

649
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:18,520
Speaker 1: freak like it was like a kidney injury, flacerated kidney yet,

650
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:21,280
Speaker 1: which you don't get from like you know, normally playing football,

651
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 1: like it just when you know. I mean, it's something

652
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:25,760
Speaker 1: that I think he can write off. With Allen, I

653
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 1: I really really like Keenan Allen's year. I think he's

654
00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:31,480
Speaker 1: painfully underranked. I I would agree with you. I think

655
00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:35,320
Speaker 1: the reason he doesn't get the hype though, is because

656
00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:38,880
Speaker 1: he's not a tremendous athlete. Yeah he's not, but I

657
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:42,320
Speaker 1: think he's the He's kind of the premier example. To me.

658
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:44,520
Speaker 1: There are a lot of other guys like Michael Crabtree,

659
00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:46,480
Speaker 1: Willie Sneed, other players that I really like that are

660
00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:49,720
Speaker 1: more of that craftsman at the position that that mitigate

661
00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:53,080
Speaker 1: their limited athleticism. But I think Keenan Allen's like the

662
00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:55,840
Speaker 1: the top tier example. He and he and DeAndre Hopkins

663
00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:59,000
Speaker 1: are actually pretty as athletes. He I would say, he

664
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:01,040
Speaker 1: is a I know, I know, I'm gonna get killed

665
00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:03,440
Speaker 1: for this. He's a better version of Julian Edelman. She

666
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:05,360
Speaker 1: shouldn't get killed for that. That's not Yeah, you know

667
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:09,400
Speaker 1: how Patriots fans, I know, but that's ridiculous. If you

668
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:13,120
Speaker 1: can't tell the difference between Julian Edelman and Keenan Allen

669
00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:14,440
Speaker 1: as a player that I just not very good at

670
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:16,520
Speaker 1: watching football. I would say, I would say they have

671
00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:19,320
Speaker 1: a similar skill set. And for me, you know, I

672
00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:22,680
Speaker 1: think Keenan Allen's just like Julian Edelman. Two point. Can

673
00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:29,240
Speaker 1: you imagine Keenan Allen in that Patriots offense which for

674
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:31,200
Speaker 1: last year's won't pay for a hundred thirty four last

675
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:33,120
Speaker 1: year because they're pretty ridiculous. They don't have like that

676
00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:35,720
Speaker 1: big wide receiver there in New England, and they don't

677
00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:37,520
Speaker 1: really utilize that they use that. You know that that

678
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:40,760
Speaker 1: was the very traditional West Coast offense, short passing attack.

679
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,280
Speaker 1: But whatever we're getting, so yeah, exclusion from the last

680
00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:45,280
Speaker 1: I said this on her periscope. The two of the

681
00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:47,520
Speaker 1: worst ones for me are Michael Floyd or John Brown.

682
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:50,120
Speaker 1: Like those guys need to have at least come in

683
00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:53,760
Speaker 1: and that back ten players. They both had tremendous seasons

684
00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:55,960
Speaker 1: last year when all three of the Cardinals wide receivers

685
00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 1: were healthy, they were the two most heavily involved. They're dynamic,

686
00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:02,480
Speaker 1: they're young. I Floyd's playing for a contract. I would

687
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:04,000
Speaker 1: have been happy if either one of them was on

688
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:06,160
Speaker 1: this list because they play an elite offense, they have

689
00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:08,560
Speaker 1: an elite quarterback, and I'm trying to draft one or

690
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:10,600
Speaker 1: both of them on as many fantasy teams as possible

691
00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:15,480
Speaker 1: this year. Yeah, um, you're back ten. This is reverse order.

692
00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:20,600
Speaker 1: Tyler Eiffert, t Y Hilton, Emmanuel Sanders, Greg Ols and

693
00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:24,439
Speaker 1: forty seven Doug Baldwin, j Agi, Jordan Read forty four.

694
00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:28,080
Speaker 1: Who is my most over ranked player? Uh Kelvin Benjamin

695
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:33,160
Speaker 1: Lottavius Murray at forty two and Ryan Matthews at forty one. Um,

696
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,439
Speaker 1: you know, I think guys that got left off John

697
00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:38,239
Speaker 1: Brown and Michael Floyd are good mentioned. You know, I

698
00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:41,600
Speaker 1: shall I shall speak no ill of John Brown ever. Um,

699
00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:43,480
Speaker 1: and I think two other guys that are kind of

700
00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:46,279
Speaker 1: that one potential one A, one B types on their

701
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:48,960
Speaker 1: own team, Randall Cobb and Donte Moncrief I think could

702
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:51,200
Speaker 1: have pushed for the top fifty, especially over guys like

703
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:54,640
Speaker 1: Kelvin Benjamin and uh Emmanuel Sanders. I think that I

704
00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:57,600
Speaker 1: would have both of those guys well ahead, especially Cob Man.

705
00:34:57,640 --> 00:34:59,759
Speaker 1: I think there's almost no way he doesn't get back

706
00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:02,319
Speaker 1: into the top fifteen of wide receivers. And you know,

707
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:04,400
Speaker 1: maybe that's being aggressive, but top twenty for sure, I

708
00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:06,440
Speaker 1: would agree with that. I think Eric Decker should be

709
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:08,560
Speaker 1: up there to you have twelve touchdowns last year. He

710
00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:11,560
Speaker 1: was a touchdown machine he did I think the quarterback

711
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:13,840
Speaker 1: question mark though, Yeah, he's a little scary, so I

712
00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:17,000
Speaker 1: think that's what's scaring people off of the Eric Decker

713
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:20,800
Speaker 1: and Brent Ran really Brandon Marshall, um, yeah, maybe Brandon

714
00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:23,239
Speaker 1: Marshall's my over most overran god. I just he's going

715
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:25,400
Speaker 1: to see a huge regression this year, I think, regardless

716
00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:27,719
Speaker 1: of whether or not Fits comes back or not, which

717
00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:31,160
Speaker 1: is by the way, not looking great as we stand today.

718
00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:34,719
Speaker 1: All right, PPR mock draft analysis, you think, well, real

719
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:36,160
Speaker 1: quick before we get into this. I also wanted to

720
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:38,359
Speaker 1: throw forgot to do it off the top. We're gonna

721
00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:41,320
Speaker 1: bring back our family. Oh that's right, guys. Remember No,

722
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:43,080
Speaker 1: it's okay if you guys remember this. Last year, Marcus

723
00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:45,560
Speaker 1: and I held a fan league. We had people submit

724
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:48,200
Speaker 1: why they should be in it on Twitter to to

725
00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:50,680
Speaker 1: get in the league. It was very fun. Marcus embarrassed

726
00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:52,840
Speaker 1: us and did not make the playoffs. I was in

727
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,680
Speaker 1: the playoffs but but lost out in there. However, we're

728
00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:57,040
Speaker 1: gonna bring it back this year. We're gonna bring the

729
00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:59,080
Speaker 1: multiple leagues. Marcus and I will do our league again,

730
00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:01,960
Speaker 1: and Harmon a franchise will lead a bearded league. You

731
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:04,759
Speaker 1: do not have to have a beer be preferred if

732
00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:06,480
Speaker 1: you Yeah, you don't have to have a beard to

733
00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:08,960
Speaker 1: partake in it. Hold on, I think you do have

734
00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:12,840
Speaker 1: to have a beard. No, we don't want because that

735
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:16,120
Speaker 1: would be not not cool. So no, I mean, how

736
00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:18,680
Speaker 1: about this. You are if you're a bearded you know lady,

757
00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:13,759
Speaker 1: league's being funny, being clever. Callbacks on the pot are

758
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:16,759
Speaker 1: great as well, so throw those out there. We'll start

759
00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:18,759
Speaker 1: reading the best ones and filling up these leagues. In

760
00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:21,600
Speaker 1: the next month or so. We'll probably draft during Fantasy

761
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:24,600
Speaker 1: Draft Week, which is going to start I think August

762
00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:27,040
Speaker 1: twenty stuff. Then a profile pick of a beard is

763
00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:31,160
Speaker 1: going to help you considerably get into the bearded league.

764
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:32,719
Speaker 1: All right, So anyways, don't want to bear the lead

765
00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:34,960
Speaker 1: as you're saying, uh, PPR mock draft analysis. You can

766
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:37,800
Speaker 1: read all about it NFL dot com slash Fantasy mock Draft.

767
00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:42,319
Speaker 1: We had ten ten teams full PPR mock draft. What

768
00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:44,560
Speaker 1: are your guys overall takeaways? First of all, can I

769
00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:48,479
Speaker 1: say this, I cannot stand PPR leagues that don't give

770
00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:54,240
Speaker 1: full touchdown points to quarterbacks because it devalues the quarterback

771
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:59,200
Speaker 1: position so much that it's almost pointless to draft a quarterback.

772
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:01,520
Speaker 1: But here's the album with all of these and this

773
00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:03,600
Speaker 1: is a we're gonna not get on a tangent on this,

774
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:06,840
Speaker 1: but they're the problem with all of these scoring settings

775
00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:10,560
Speaker 1: and over emphasizing them is that PPR does not change

776
00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:13,400
Speaker 1: things that much within the wide receiver position. Rich Rebar

777
00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:16,000
Speaker 1: wrote a great article on this on rhotovi. Is it

778
00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:18,799
Speaker 1: really the only thing that PPR really changes is the

779
00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:22,000
Speaker 1: value within the running back position. Those pass catching running

780
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:25,800
Speaker 1: backs and therefore workhorse running backs get a huge bumping PPR.

781
00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:27,840
Speaker 1: It's not. It doesn't change things so much within the

782
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:31,759
Speaker 1: wide receiver position. Um outside of real big outliers like

783
00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:37,080
Speaker 1: Kendall Wright was the subject of that article. Back Score

784
00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:39,959
Speaker 1: two touchdowns that hardly ever happens, But there are guys

785
00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:41,839
Speaker 1: in the league that do that. And same with six

786
00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:44,880
Speaker 1: point per touchdowns. They don't necessarily inflate the quarterbacks that

787
00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:47,759
Speaker 1: much because everybody gets the bump. But I understand what

788
00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:50,080
Speaker 1: you're saying, like it gets a little complicated, but I

789
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:53,080
Speaker 1: just I'm only saying that just too. But the quarterbacks

790
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:57,239
Speaker 1: value relative to a wide receiver and running back is depressed.

791
00:38:57,320 --> 00:38:59,600
Speaker 1: I I would argue, though, that the only way you're

792
00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:02,799
Speaker 1: ever gonna fix that because there are just so many

793
00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:04,560
Speaker 1: usable quarterbacks. I mean, you can get down to the

794
00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:07,359
Speaker 1: twenty three spot in your quarterback rankings and maybe there's

795
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:08,640
Speaker 1: a guy like Matt staff and you're like, you know,

796
00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:10,719
Speaker 1: I can talk to myself into Matt Stafford is my

797
00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:14,280
Speaker 1: starting fantasy quarterback. The only way you're ever gonna equalize

798
00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:16,680
Speaker 1: the quarterback position again is to have super flex like

799
00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:18,720
Speaker 1: be able to flex quarterbacks. I hear what you're saying.

800
00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:21,000
Speaker 1: We are totally getting on tangent yea, and I tried

801
00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:24,480
Speaker 1: not to. But but the six points per touchdown for

802
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:27,719
Speaker 1: a quarterback, it values scoring touchdowns like they do for

803
00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:30,520
Speaker 1: other positions. Right now, where it is with four points

804
00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:33,040
Speaker 1: and a full PPR. It's all about yardage and catches.

805
00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:35,120
Speaker 1: That's really what it comes down to. It's hard to

806
00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:38,239
Speaker 1: find the perfect marriage. I like your PPR because I

807
00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:40,560
Speaker 1: think that it equally. It makes the wide receiver position

808
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:43,360
Speaker 1: more valuable, and it's the most valuable position in fantasy

809
00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:45,239
Speaker 1: football right now because there's the most of them. And

810
00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:48,719
Speaker 1: it's also my hashtag break all right, So there you

811
00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:51,400

00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:04,319
Speaker 1: segway there, James, but I felt it so good, so

817
00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:06,640
Speaker 1: harmon since it is your brand. You have any tips

818
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:10,120
Speaker 1: for those embarking on their first PPR drafts? And some people,

819
00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:11,520
Speaker 1: you know, we have a lot of casual players on

820
00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:13,440
Speaker 1: the site, might listen to the pod, might stick to

821
00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:15,600
Speaker 1: standard leagues. What are what are some tips for for

822
00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:21,680
Speaker 1: starting out? Um? I think outside of Levan Bell and

823
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:25,719
Speaker 1: David Johnson, I don't think you can even really justify

824
00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:28,040
Speaker 1: a running back in the first round of a PPR

825
00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:29,880
Speaker 1: league because those are really the only two guys that

826
00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:31,799
Speaker 1: I have on my first tier of running backs because

827
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:34,440
Speaker 1: they're the only ones that catch a boatload of passes

828
00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:36,319
Speaker 1: in my theory, they're the only ones that have that

829
00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:39,160
Speaker 1: weekly ceiling. And it's hard to say no to that

830
00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:42,040
Speaker 1: weekly ceiling of an elite wide receiver. One. You know,

831
00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:45,440
Speaker 1: there's guys like obviously Brown, Beckham and Jones. But even

832
00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:47,680
Speaker 1: if a j Green hits this year like I expect,

833
00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:50,160
Speaker 1: if Dos Briant, you know, turns back into a red

834
00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:52,719
Speaker 1: zone monster, um, you know, you run into an Allen

835
00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:55,560
Speaker 1: Robinson or a Keenan Allen. It's hard to say no

836
00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:58,319
Speaker 1: to wide receivers early in the PPR league because of

837
00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:01,000
Speaker 1: that boost, not to the s in the position, but

838
00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:04,120
Speaker 1: the ceiling of the position, because because a ten catch,

839
00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:10,000
Speaker 1: hundred two touchdown game is ridiculous and and those and

840
00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:13,000
Speaker 1: there are very few receivers as much as and I know, Alex,

841
00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:14,680
Speaker 1: you and I have talked about this all off season,

842
00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:18,280
Speaker 1: whether at bars or not, UM about just the depth

843
00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:20,400
Speaker 1: of the receiver position and how that middle class is

844
00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:23,879
Speaker 1: so so strong right now, it's hard to not at

845
00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:27,680
Speaker 1: least have one byte at the elite wide receiver Apple,

846
00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:30,040
Speaker 1: and I prefer to take two early in a PPR

847
00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:33,600
Speaker 1: league especially, and you want and you like you cannot

848
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:37,120
Speaker 1: have I know that like robust running back and and

849
00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:40,400
Speaker 1: Alex you we're just talking about this is a fancy

850
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:43,000
Speaker 1: new like kind of strategy to desig where everybody's eggs.

851
00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:45,120
Speaker 1: But in a pre league especially, you gotta have a

852
00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:48,240
Speaker 1: wide receiver that's flex spot because of the weekly ceiling

853
00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:51,759
Speaker 1: and just the floor. Yeah, I mean even a five

854
00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:56,160
Speaker 1: catch fifty yard games a really really good floor for

855
00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:59,560
Speaker 1: your flex position, something that you may not get like

856
00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:03,240
Speaker 1: just looking at the just total off the wall example

857
00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:06,240
Speaker 1: right now, Like in round nine, rank went Tory Smith,

858
00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:09,680
Speaker 1: Gelhardt went Marvin Jones, I went Sterling Shepherd. You went

859
00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:13,839
Speaker 1: Kenneth Dixon either before ending on the turn. Absolutely hated

860
00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:16,239
Speaker 1: my draft, but it's but whatever. But my point is like,

861
00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:20,040
Speaker 1: if you're theoretically flexing that wide receiver there, you're you're

862
00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:22,239
Speaker 1: gonna be much happier with the floor and ceiling of

863
00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:24,719
Speaker 1: those three wide receivers than Kenneth Dixon or even Chris

864
00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:26,960
Speaker 1: Ivory who Marcus took him the same right on one

865
00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:29,239
Speaker 1: thing I think is interesting to um that I was

866
00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:31,640
Speaker 1: I was noting in this draft as well, is that

867
00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:34,399
Speaker 1: while receptions boost a lot of other of those pass

868
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:38,440
Speaker 1: catching backs, they don't exactly bury the other like workhorses

869
00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:40,400
Speaker 1: that don't catch a ton of passes either. Guys like

870
00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:43,680
Speaker 1: Jonathan Stewart and Frank Gore actually had really good seasons

871
00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:45,839
Speaker 1: last year in PPR among running backs, I think Jay

872
00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:48,640
Speaker 1: stew was the RB twenty four and Frank Gore was

873
00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:50,920
Speaker 1: the RB twelve and PPR because they have such secure

874
00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:53,400
Speaker 1: workloads and they have they get goal line work, and

875
00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:56,200
Speaker 1: they can score touchdowns. So while while this format does

876
00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:58,600
Speaker 1: boost a guy like Theoretic I think was the RB

877
00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:00,840
Speaker 1: eight teen last year, because what did he have like

878
00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:04,200
Speaker 1: eighty catch eight catches? You know, that's that's hard to

879
00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:07,120
Speaker 1: bank on him getting getting again. But Jay Stewart Frank

880
00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:09,400
Speaker 1: Gore pushing for a thousand yards and seven or eight

881
00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:12,359
Speaker 1: touchdowns Like that's that if you're looking for an RB

882
00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:14,319
Speaker 1: too late, like I drafted both of them in our

883
00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:16,800
Speaker 1: PPR mock, I think, and I got them in rounds

884
00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:20,799
Speaker 1: eight and ten respectively. Yeah, because their workloads are more

885
00:43:20,880 --> 00:43:23,359
Speaker 1: guaranteed than a guy like Theoretic, who you don't kind

886
00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:25,759
Speaker 1: of needs game script to float his value, and he

887
00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:27,919
Speaker 1: got good a lot of good game script with the

888
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:30,759
Speaker 1: Lions being horrible for the first half last season. Going

889
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:33,160
Speaker 1: back to that first round, I took Todd Gurley with

890
00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:36,200
Speaker 1: the eighth overall pick, Harmon, I want to get your thoughts.

891
00:43:36,239 --> 00:43:39,440
Speaker 1: There is Todd Gurley also in that level bell David

892
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:42,360
Speaker 1: Johnson class or just a touch below. You know, I

893
00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:44,960
Speaker 1: think he is a touch below. I actually have him

894
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:48,640
Speaker 1: in my second tier behind guys like Elliott and Lamar

895
00:43:48,680 --> 00:43:53,000
Speaker 1: Miller because I think their reception volume is more guaranteed

896
00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:55,959
Speaker 1: for sure. And you know, the tough part about Todd

897
00:43:55,960 --> 00:44:00,120
Speaker 1: Gurley is he's all world talent, no doubt about. But

898
00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:01,920
Speaker 1: it's the same east. It's the same thing with like

899
00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:04,799
Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson. You know, if he plays in a low

900
00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:06,960
Speaker 1: volume offense, that isn't going to score a lot of

901
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:10,839
Speaker 1: touchdowns because they're they're they're just overall team philosophy. And

902
00:44:10,880 --> 00:44:13,400
Speaker 1: just like Peterson, he's not a dominant pass catcher, or

903
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:15,120
Speaker 1: at least I don't know if the Rams want to

904
00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:16,920
Speaker 1: use him as one. Like they only target him twenty

905
00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:19,000
Speaker 1: six times and he caught twenty one of those of

906
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:21,759
Speaker 1: those targets, which is a great catch rate. I think

907
00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:24,279
Speaker 1: he can catch passes, but they've got that weird infatuation

908
00:44:24,320 --> 00:44:26,319
Speaker 1: with Benny Cunningham. You know, they used him a lot

909
00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:29,480
Speaker 1: on third downs and maybe that's why is to preserve

910
00:44:29,719 --> 00:44:31,719
Speaker 1: Todd Gurley long term. But I just think he's a

911
00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:34,279
Speaker 1: touch below that those in PPR formats for share and

912
00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:36,120
Speaker 1: in standard too, I wouldn't I don't know. Yeah, I

913
00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:37,560
Speaker 1: don't know if I take Todd Gurley in the first

914
00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:40,719
Speaker 1: round of his standard league either, Yeah, I don't know.

915
00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:43,080
Speaker 1: I just I don't think that he has I don't

916
00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:45,799
Speaker 1: think he has the weekly ceiling that I'm or I

917
00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:48,120
Speaker 1: don't think he has the weekly like floor and ceiling

918
00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:50,319
Speaker 1: marriage that I'm looking for from a first round pick.

919
00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:53,680
Speaker 1: They're definitely ways that I can talk myself into Todd

920
00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:57,880
Speaker 1: Gurley being like the RB twelve uh is opposed to

921
00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:00,520
Speaker 1: the RB one, you know, And I think that guys

922
00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:03,520
Speaker 1: like again Bell, we know that there are a lot

923
00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:05,920
Speaker 1: of concerns, but you know, and David Johnson too, like,

924
00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:09,040
Speaker 1: I think their floor is just much more secure from

925
00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:11,680
Speaker 1: a week to week perspective, maybe not even a season

926
00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:13,959
Speaker 1: long perspective, Like there were plenty of weeks where Todd

927
00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:16,919
Speaker 1: Gurley was disappointing last year. There was even a long

928
00:45:16,960 --> 00:45:19,719
Speaker 1: stretch where we're like, man, can we start this guy?

929
00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:22,040
Speaker 1: And and it's not because he's not good, it's because

930
00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:27,359
Speaker 1: he plays on an awful rams off the rams uh

931
00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:31,160
Speaker 1: good point wiz uh any takeaways thoughts on your team

932
00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:33,160
Speaker 1: stuff like that. I was thrilled with the way my

933
00:45:33,200 --> 00:45:35,799
Speaker 1: team shook out. I jumped on a j Green at

934
00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:37,960
Speaker 1: fifth overall if the franchise took left Bell And then,

935
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:40,759
Speaker 1: as Harmon said, I I was waiting that entire second round,

936
00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:42,520
Speaker 1: was like, please fall to me, Lamar Miller, Please fall

937
00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:44,360
Speaker 1: to me, Lamar Miller, please fall to me. And he

938
00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:46,439
Speaker 1: did because Lamar Miller is a guy that the last

939
00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:48,920
Speaker 1: couple of years has averaged around fifty five targets a year.

940
00:45:49,520 --> 00:45:51,640
Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien loves to feature his main back we saw

941
00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:54,560
Speaker 1: with Arian Foster, even with Alfred Blue and at times

942
00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:57,279
Speaker 1: like Chris Polk and Jonathan Grimes. So I'm all in

943
00:45:57,320 --> 00:45:59,040
Speaker 1: on Lamar Miller in that offense, and I think he

944
00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:02,000
Speaker 1: could even gone a lot higher in this in this

945
00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:05,880
Speaker 1: PPR mock, I'm surprised he did. People people overreacted to

946
00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:10,920
Speaker 1: wanting that wide receiver depth early. Quite honestly, in a

947
00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:15,439
Speaker 1: PPR format, I'm actually surprised Adrian Peterson went before Lamar Miller. Yeah,

948
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:18,000
Speaker 1: it's a little surprising that would that That to me

949
00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:21,359
Speaker 1: was a was a big Should we talk Besson in Wars?

950
00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:24,960
Speaker 1: Teams quick here or favorite at least favorite? Uh franchise

951
00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:29,800
Speaker 1: you want to get get us started here? Uh? Favorite team?

952
00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:32,799
Speaker 1: I kind of like, um, the way Money's team shaped up.

953
00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:35,879
Speaker 1: He wouldn't got Danny woodhead in the fifth round? Like

954
00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:38,879
Speaker 1: were we we did? We just forget about him now.

955
00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:40,520
Speaker 1: I think I think I think that's a fair price.

956
00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:42,719
Speaker 1: I think five round five is a good price for

957
00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:44,799
Speaker 1: Danny Woods. We're not exactly sure. He had a pretty

958
00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:48,839
Speaker 1: devastating injury to man that was two years two years ago. Yeah,

959
00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:50,640
Speaker 1: well yeah, but I'm saying, like, you know, in terms

960
00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:52,759
Speaker 1: of having an injury history, is what I'm saying. So

961
00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:56,160
Speaker 1: what has his his RB two? He wouldn't got Rogers

962
00:46:56,200 --> 00:46:57,960
Speaker 1: in the fourth round, which is kind of a reach,

963
00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:00,720
Speaker 1: but whatever. If you like a quarterback early, Money always

964
00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:03,239
Speaker 1: takes a quarterback early and then yeah, I just I

965
00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:05,360
Speaker 1: just kind of like the way his his early rounds

966
00:47:05,360 --> 00:47:10,560
Speaker 1: shaped up, all right, Yeah, harmon Um I mean other

967
00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:14,799
Speaker 1: than my own, because it's awesome. I really like galhars team.

968
00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:18,239
Speaker 1: He took a lot of receivers that I really like

969
00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:20,319
Speaker 1: this year. He took a j Green in the first round,

970
00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:24,440
Speaker 1: which I'm a fan of. Obviously took time. God, nothing

971
00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:26,680
Speaker 1: was more frustrating because if you watch the periscope, you

972
00:47:26,680 --> 00:47:29,440
Speaker 1: know I came in late because my alarm didn't go off,

973
00:47:29,600 --> 00:47:32,520
Speaker 1: and it was frustrating sitting at home watching Tyler Lockett

974
00:47:32,520 --> 00:47:34,560
Speaker 1: and Charles Sims go one pick before me, and I

975
00:47:34,560 --> 00:47:36,279
Speaker 1: was like, oh man, yeah, I took Tyler Lockett, ranked

976
00:47:36,280 --> 00:47:38,480
Speaker 1: took Charles Sims, and then Harmon had to panic and

977
00:47:38,560 --> 00:47:41,680
Speaker 1: drafted Tyler Eiffert in round seven, which whatever, I'm okay

978
00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:43,320
Speaker 1: with that. I don't care. It's not it's not terrible.

979
00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:45,480
Speaker 1: But you've got guys. I mean, you've got t Y

980
00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:48,560
Speaker 1: Hilton and Damarus Thomas. I like, I like, but worwth

981
00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:50,960
Speaker 1: where you took those guys, especially Thomas at wide receiver

982
00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:53,239
Speaker 1: seventeen and PPR. I think he's still gonna have a

983
00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:56,279
Speaker 1: pretty safe catch floor. Obviously, Tyler Lockett Marvin Jones in

984
00:47:56,320 --> 00:47:59,040
Speaker 1: the ninth round. That's a switch at wide receiver forty

985
00:47:59,040 --> 00:48:01,640
Speaker 1: one price and Golden Tate did not go so high

986
00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:03,839
Speaker 1: in this round. For the record, those wide receiver things

987
00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:06,640
Speaker 1: on this mock are not accurate because I had I

988
00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:08,600
Speaker 1: just repieced this together. I didn't have time hesterday to

989
00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:10,200
Speaker 1: go back through it. So Thomas was actually the wide

990
00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:13,000
Speaker 1: receiver fourteen, but Jones is in that wide receiver forty range. Yeah. Well,

991
00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:14,160
Speaker 1: you took him, like I said, you took him the

992
00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:16,600
Speaker 1: ninth round, and Golden Tape for some reason slipped to

993
00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:18,400
Speaker 1: me in the sixth round of this league, but normally

994
00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:20,839
Speaker 1: in like the third or fourth round of PPR leagues,

995
00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:24,080
Speaker 1: And like the price difference between Tate and Jones right now,

996
00:48:24,800 --> 00:48:27,360
Speaker 1: it's crazy. And he even took some nice late flyers

997
00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:30,560
Speaker 1: like Vincent Jackson in the thirteenth round. You know, if

998
00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:32,360
Speaker 1: he lasted that long, it wouldn't shock me if he

999
00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:34,640
Speaker 1: had another usable season. And I'm not the biggest evn

1000
00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:37,200
Speaker 1: Funchis fan, but if you're taking him in the fifteenth

1001
00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:39,360
Speaker 1: round like you did here, or the fourteenth round like

1002
00:48:39,400 --> 00:48:41,600
Speaker 1: I did in their last mock, that's totally cool. Yeah,

1003
00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:43,000
Speaker 1: I was. I was. I was very happy with my

1004
00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:45,319
Speaker 1: team shook out, and I like yours. Harmon too. But

1005
00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:46,920
Speaker 1: I want to talk about franchises because he had a

1006
00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:48,920
Speaker 1: different strategy and I think it's still really played out

1007
00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:51,279
Speaker 1: into a into a solid team for him, because I like,

1008
00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:53,640
Speaker 1: as we mentioned off the top, really like which is

1009
00:48:53,680 --> 00:48:56,120
Speaker 1: weird in a PPR draft, he went running back, running back,

1010
00:48:56,200 --> 00:48:58,880
Speaker 1: running back, he went Left Bell, Jamal Charles in the second,

1011
00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:00,600
Speaker 1: and then Eddie Lacey and the But why I like

1012
00:49:00,680 --> 00:49:02,839
Speaker 1: that so much is because those are all three guys

1013
00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:05,239
Speaker 1: that have an elite workload and each of them could

1014
00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:07,680
Speaker 1: wouldn't surprise me if they had over fifty catches this year.

1015
00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:09,919
Speaker 1: Like Eddie Lacy really improved that part of his game

1016
00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:11,960
Speaker 1: before he got out of shape and injured last year.

1017
00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:14,759
Speaker 1: Jamal Jamal Charles, we know, just gets pummeled with the

1018
00:49:14,960 --> 00:49:17,440
Speaker 1: with touches in Kansas City. And as we mentioned, Left

1019
00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:19,000
Speaker 1: Bell is one of the best tool threats in the NFL.

1020
00:49:19,480 --> 00:49:21,359
Speaker 1: And then speaking to that depth of the second wide

1021
00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:23,799
Speaker 1: receiver to your harmon, like we we mentioned earlier, he

1022
00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:27,400
Speaker 1: got Doug Baldwin, Michael Floyd, Kelvin Benjamin and DeShawn Jackson

1023
00:49:27,600 --> 00:49:30,680
Speaker 1: over the course of the next six rounds, even nabbing

1024
00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:33,359
Speaker 1: a few more running backs in there, so like he's

1025
00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:34,959
Speaker 1: got he's got. He might have to mix and match

1026
00:49:34,960 --> 00:49:37,719
Speaker 1: his wide receivers, but he's got four guys that will

1027
00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:40,839
Speaker 1: put up usable weeks for him. Uh and all could have.

1028
00:49:41,120 --> 00:49:43,080
Speaker 1: You know, Doug Baldwin was a wide receiver one last year,

1029
00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:45,919
Speaker 1: Michael Floyd was just outside the wide receiver too. All

1030
00:49:45,960 --> 00:49:47,840
Speaker 1: of them have have good ceilings. So I really like

1031
00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:50,400
Speaker 1: the way your team shook out franchise and getting Ladarius

1032
00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:52,640
Speaker 1: Green late as well. I'd probably be flexing or running

1033
00:49:52,640 --> 00:49:54,839
Speaker 1: back there, even though it's a PPR league, but I'm

1034
00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:56,960
Speaker 1: cool with that because all these running backs are elite.

1035
00:49:57,040 --> 00:49:59,520
Speaker 1: And then well, I don't know, I think you could

1036
00:49:59,520 --> 00:50:02,520
Speaker 1: select Sean Jackson in this this lineup well maybe like

1037
00:50:02,560 --> 00:50:05,400
Speaker 1: depending on the matchup whatever, because on a week to

1038
00:50:05,480 --> 00:50:09,600
Speaker 1: week like one, that's a great receiver corps from one

1039
00:50:09,640 --> 00:50:12,399
Speaker 1: to four, Like any of those guys can score within

1040
00:50:12,440 --> 00:50:14,680
Speaker 1: the top ten receivers receivers on a week two week basis,

1041
00:50:14,719 --> 00:50:16,920
Speaker 1: and fantasy football is a weekly game more so than

1042
00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:19,040
Speaker 1: it's a season long game. I think the thing with

1043
00:50:19,080 --> 00:50:21,719
Speaker 1: these first like first three round running back teams or

1044
00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:24,520
Speaker 1: robust running back whatever you want to call it, they

1045
00:50:24,560 --> 00:50:27,919
Speaker 1: have like the highest upside of teams. I know Evan

1046
00:50:27,960 --> 00:50:29,640
Speaker 1: Silva was talking about this on a podcast. I was

1047
00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:31,680
Speaker 1: listening to you yesterday, Like those teams if they hit,

1048
00:50:31,719 --> 00:50:34,040
Speaker 1: if all those running backs the ceiling, like you're gonna

1049
00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:36,760
Speaker 1: slaughter this league. Of course, the trouble with running backs

1050
00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:39,960
Speaker 1: is they're the most the most. I mean, like as

1051
00:50:40,120 --> 00:50:41,680
Speaker 1: as you say, we're looking at it, like, man, you

1052
00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:43,839
Speaker 1: see the ceiling for Bell, Charles and Lacy. But they

1053
00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:47,960
Speaker 1: were hurt, hurt and fat last year. But I got

1054
00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:52,000
Speaker 1: some security with D'Angelo Williams in the twelfth round. And

1055
00:50:52,040 --> 00:50:55,120
Speaker 1: you've got Melvin Gordon, big bounce, fat candidate, your guy C. J. Prosie,

1056
00:50:55,160 --> 00:50:56,719
Speaker 1: who at least is the past catching guy there. And

1057
00:50:56,719 --> 00:50:59,319
Speaker 1: you got Derrick Henry in the thirteenth round. So it's

1058
00:50:59,320 --> 00:51:01,239
Speaker 1: a good team. It's a it's a solid team. I

1059
00:51:01,280 --> 00:51:03,399
Speaker 1: like it. I know you hated your team. Oh my god,

1060
00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:06,600
Speaker 1: I hated my But what other team did you like

1061
00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:08,560
Speaker 1: if it wasn't one of the ones we already mentioned? No, no, no,

1062
00:51:08,640 --> 00:51:10,759
Speaker 1: you you guys all hit it in terms of in

1063
00:51:10,840 --> 00:51:13,160
Speaker 1: terms of the teams that I liked, I just absolutely

1064
00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:15,520
Speaker 1: hated my draft because I mean, look what did I take.

1065
00:51:15,560 --> 00:51:17,279
Speaker 1: I took Carlos High in the fifth round. Why, I

1066
00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:19,560
Speaker 1: don't know why, you know what happened. Harmon took Dante

1067
00:51:19,640 --> 00:51:21,920
Speaker 1: mon Creef one pick in front of me, and I

1068
00:51:21,960 --> 00:51:27,000
Speaker 1: freaked out, and I completely and utterly freaked out, and

1069
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:28,400
Speaker 1: I didn't know what the hell I was doing. And

1070
00:51:28,440 --> 00:51:31,440
Speaker 1: then I still must have been reeling from that because

1071
00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:34,799
Speaker 1: in round six I did what I never do. I

1072
00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:38,160
Speaker 1: ain't taking mid round quarterbacks. I like Russell Wilson this year,

1073
00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:41,480
Speaker 1: don't get me wrong, but in this format and really

1074
00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:44,279
Speaker 1: even in standard legs, I just don't like taking a

1075
00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:47,239
Speaker 1: mid round quarterback. And I took Russell Wilson in round

1076
00:51:47,239 --> 00:51:51,239
Speaker 1: six and I absolutely regretted it. Um, Yeah, man, I

1077
00:51:51,320 --> 00:51:54,680
Speaker 1: just I missed out on all the guys that I'm

1078
00:51:54,719 --> 00:51:57,120
Speaker 1: really high on, right, So I missed out on Dante

1079
00:51:57,200 --> 00:51:59,560
Speaker 1: mont Creef, I missed out on Jeremy Langford, I missed

1080
00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:03,000
Speaker 1: out on um Marvin Jones tied to the locket. So

1081
00:52:03,800 --> 00:52:07,040
Speaker 1: it's I always feel like a draft for me as

1082
00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:10,680
Speaker 1: a failure if I don't get one of my guys, um,

1083
00:52:10,719 --> 00:52:12,759
Speaker 1: And especially when you're picking in the eighth hole, man,

1084
00:52:12,880 --> 00:52:16,239
Speaker 1: like you gotta you know on those turnaround picks. You

1085
00:52:16,239 --> 00:52:18,759
Speaker 1: gotta just go and take your guy because you're you know,

1086
00:52:18,840 --> 00:52:21,480
Speaker 1: there's gonna be so many picks between you pick when

1087
00:52:21,520 --> 00:52:23,480
Speaker 1: you pick again, so I know I'm gonna be reaching

1088
00:52:23,520 --> 00:52:25,759
Speaker 1: for Marvin Jones or whatever it might be, or maybe

1089
00:52:25,760 --> 00:52:28,680
Speaker 1: even a Tyler Lockett, But who cares. You gotta do

1090
00:52:28,719 --> 00:52:30,880
Speaker 1: it sometimes, and for me, like I look at Carlos

1091
00:52:30,920 --> 00:52:32,600
Speaker 1: Hide and I'm like, what am I thinking? Here? Yeah?

1092
00:52:32,719 --> 00:52:34,719
Speaker 1: What am I do? Make that? Pick that right after? You? Like?

1093
00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:38,239
Speaker 1: Why the hell there? I don't looking at this. Also,

1094
00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:40,600
Speaker 1: I don't think there's any teams that that I think

1095
00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:42,440
Speaker 1: are just awful, but there are a lot of these

1096
00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:43,960
Speaker 1: other teams I think our question marks. And one thing

1097
00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:45,439
Speaker 1: I wanted to point out because we were talking about

1098
00:52:45,440 --> 00:52:47,319
Speaker 1: it earlier with the Tom Brady and he's off the top.

1099
00:52:47,680 --> 00:52:49,200
Speaker 1: So Fabiano, as we mentioned, was the one that took

1100
00:52:49,239 --> 00:52:51,160
Speaker 1: Tom Brady and then he backed him up with Eli Manning.

1101
00:52:51,520 --> 00:52:53,839
Speaker 1: But if you look at FABS rosters starting set up

1102
00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:57,320
Speaker 1: his solid he's got Antonio Brown mark ingram so funny

1103
00:52:57,320 --> 00:53:00,239
Speaker 1: when you look at his team, it's wide receiver back,

1104
00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:02,680
Speaker 1: wide receiver running back, what it isde receiver running back

1105
00:53:02,680 --> 00:53:05,399
Speaker 1: but so so it's presumably he's gonna start Antonio Brown,

1106
00:53:05,400 --> 00:53:08,320
Speaker 1: Alshon Jeffrey and Eric Decker, and then uh Ingram and

1107
00:53:08,360 --> 00:53:10,839
Speaker 1: Dion Lewis is starting running backs. Thomas Rawls is there

1108
00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:13,440
Speaker 1: might not catch a pass. Jeremy Hill is not going

1109
00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:14,920
Speaker 1: to get a lot of passing game work either in

1110
00:53:14,920 --> 00:53:17,080
Speaker 1: a PPR league. But then because he had to back

1111
00:53:17,160 --> 00:53:19,080
Speaker 1: up Eli Manning as we were talking about, that's another

1112
00:53:19,160 --> 00:53:22,080
Speaker 1: roster spot that he's just burning for four weeks with,

1113
00:53:22,280 --> 00:53:24,600
Speaker 1: you know, with no ability really a flexibility to pick

1114
00:53:24,640 --> 00:53:28,480
Speaker 1: up another running back to Yeah, hate taking two tightys.

1115
00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:30,920
Speaker 1: I think this. I think fabs teams like the classic

1116
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:34,600
Speaker 1: example of like a fourth place team, like it's going

1117
00:53:34,680 --> 00:53:36,719
Speaker 1: to get to the playoffs because he's got I mean,

1118
00:53:36,840 --> 00:53:39,600
Speaker 1: good starters like Barnas start tight end too, but I

1119
00:53:39,640 --> 00:53:42,520
Speaker 1: love the starters, and like, obviously, you know, the draft

1120
00:53:42,600 --> 00:53:44,680
Speaker 1: is only one part of playing fantasy. Like you've gotta

1121
00:53:44,719 --> 00:53:46,239
Speaker 1: be smart with trades, you've gotta be smart the way

1122
00:53:46,239 --> 00:53:47,920
Speaker 1: over wire. But to me, I don't really see a

1123
00:53:47,960 --> 00:53:51,120
Speaker 1: great ceiling, especially like round seven Emmanuel Sanders, Like that's

1124
00:53:51,120 --> 00:53:53,000
Speaker 1: fine to take him, but when your early picks were

1125
00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:56,160
Speaker 1: so chalky that it makes I would rather swing for

1126
00:53:56,440 --> 00:53:58,279
Speaker 1: take a bit of a swing at defenses there. Yeah,

1127
00:53:58,320 --> 00:53:59,960
Speaker 1: I think the way but see the way the Fabian

1128
00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:02,319
Speaker 1: of plays. He's the most active dude in all of

1129
00:54:02,360 --> 00:54:05,279
Speaker 1: his leagues, right, So Tuesday mornings he is up and

1130
00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:07,480
Speaker 1: on those waiver wires. Oh my god, he is so

1131
00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:10,520
Speaker 1: crazy on top of the waivers, so um like a

1132
00:54:10,680 --> 00:54:13,680
Speaker 1: madman um. And and I think he plays the seven leagues,

1133
00:54:13,680 --> 00:54:15,759
Speaker 1: and I would probably I would probably argue that. I

1134
00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:19,000
Speaker 1: think I would argue that in six of those seven leagues. Uh,

1135
00:54:19,040 --> 00:54:22,640
Speaker 1: he is the most active player in those leagues. And

1136
00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:26,160
Speaker 1: so I think he gets he falls into that, right,

1137
00:54:26,200 --> 00:54:28,279
Speaker 1: so like he knows, I'm gonna be able to work

1138
00:54:28,280 --> 00:54:31,160
Speaker 1: the waiver wire like a madman um in the league

1139
00:54:31,200 --> 00:54:33,520
Speaker 1: that he plays in NFL Fantasy Live, It's not quite

1140
00:54:33,600 --> 00:54:36,719
Speaker 1: that way because he's playing with you know, five or

1141
00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:39,680
Speaker 1: six other guys who maybe aren't taking the league that seriously,

1142
00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:42,600
Speaker 1: but at least know what the hell they're doing. Yeah,

1143
00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:44,920
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I think there's there's like

1144
00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:48,719
Speaker 1: wisdom and folly in that being knowing that you're the

1145
00:54:48,719 --> 00:54:51,279
Speaker 1: most active guy, and like taking too much of an

1146
00:54:51,320 --> 00:54:54,960
Speaker 1: emphasis in that because we don't know everything. You know,

1147
00:54:55,200 --> 00:54:56,759
Speaker 1: in fact, we don't know a hell of a lot.

1148
00:54:58,239 --> 00:55:00,760
Speaker 1: And and like I always I always hate when people

1149
00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:04,560
Speaker 1: like take like take players in the draft with the

1150
00:55:04,600 --> 00:55:06,080
Speaker 1: idea of like I'm gonna flip him later for I'm

1151
00:55:06,080 --> 00:55:08,600
Speaker 1: gonna flip him later for somebody else. That's a that's

1152
00:55:08,640 --> 00:55:11,160
Speaker 1: like you you're assuming not only that the player is

1153
00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:13,439
Speaker 1: going to do what you expect, also assuming that you're

1154
00:55:13,440 --> 00:55:15,480
Speaker 1: you're smarter than your league mates. Never a good thing.

1155
00:55:15,520 --> 00:55:17,319
Speaker 1: Like I remember last year when people were like, oh,

1156
00:55:17,360 --> 00:55:19,799
Speaker 1: I'll take Trey Mason early, and then I'll take Todd

1157
00:55:19,840 --> 00:55:21,680
Speaker 1: Gurley and I'll just I'll just trade Trey Mason like

1158
00:55:21,719 --> 00:55:23,960
Speaker 1: to some idiot in my league. And I'm like, who's

1159
00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:26,360
Speaker 1: so stupid in your league that they don't know that

1160
00:55:26,400 --> 00:55:29,560
Speaker 1: Tray Mason's gonna lose his job to guy the best.

1161
00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:31,840
Speaker 1: The best example of that was actually in the Fantasy

1162
00:55:31,880 --> 00:55:34,200
Speaker 1: Live League last year, a Bar I think it back

1163
00:55:34,239 --> 00:55:36,720
Speaker 1: to back picks took like Peyton Manning and Tom Brady

1164
00:55:36,800 --> 00:55:38,239
Speaker 1: and in the draft were like, Okward, what the hell

1165
00:55:38,239 --> 00:55:40,120
Speaker 1: are you doing? He's like, I'll trade him. Oh, you

1166
00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:44,040
Speaker 1: can't trade a quarterball. Bar would be walking through the

1167
00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:46,759
Speaker 1: newsroom like, why don't you set my trading bar. I

1168
00:55:46,840 --> 00:55:50,120
Speaker 1: don't want Peyton Manning. Listen, bar just because you're bigger,

1169
00:55:50,320 --> 00:55:53,280
Speaker 1: because you're bigger than me, doesn't mean He kept getting

1170
00:55:53,360 --> 00:55:55,879
Speaker 1: so mad he would float everybody in the league's trade

1171
00:55:55,880 --> 00:55:58,759
Speaker 1: offers and everybody's like, I don't want Peyton. And it

1172
00:55:58,880 --> 00:56:02,759
Speaker 1: was funny too, because he unnecessarily held onto Payton. He

1173
00:56:03,200 --> 00:56:05,960
Speaker 1: kept trying to trade because he was trying to flip him,

1174
00:56:06,000 --> 00:56:08,839
Speaker 1: because he came into the draft saying that right, and

1175
00:56:08,960 --> 00:56:10,719
Speaker 1: everybody was like, I mean, there were so many other

1176
00:56:10,719 --> 00:56:12,880
Speaker 1: good quarterbacks, but nobody had a need to take a

1177
00:56:13,080 --> 00:56:15,240
Speaker 1: you know, kind of a busted up payment. So Peyton

1178
00:56:15,280 --> 00:56:18,160
Speaker 1: Manning had been solid, Like I wasn't gonna trade for him.

1179
00:56:18,239 --> 00:56:20,520
Speaker 1: I had fine quarterbacks in that league. It was so

1180
00:56:20,560 --> 00:56:22,120
Speaker 1: you're right, it's a it's it's a fallacy to go

1181
00:56:22,160 --> 00:56:24,239
Speaker 1: into a draft taking somebody like I'm gonna trade him.

1182
00:56:24,280 --> 00:56:26,680
Speaker 1: It's a good psychological thing to because there's just so

1183
00:56:26,760 --> 00:56:29,600
Speaker 1: much psychology that goes into fantasy football. It's really revealing

1184
00:56:29,600 --> 00:56:31,800
Speaker 1: about what kind of person you are. But like that

1185
00:56:31,800 --> 00:56:33,680
Speaker 1: that thing that you do too have like I took

1186
00:56:33,680 --> 00:56:35,719
Speaker 1: this guy in the third round, I gotta hang onto him.

1187
00:56:35,719 --> 00:56:37,440
Speaker 1: I gotta hang on, I gotta trade him when it's

1188
00:56:37,440 --> 00:56:41,000
Speaker 1: like just cut manning the last oh oh yeah, Like

1189
00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:44,919
Speaker 1: you know, you invest so much into the especially when

1190
00:56:44,960 --> 00:56:46,960
Speaker 1: it's a guy that you really like and it's a

1191
00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:49,640
Speaker 1: sleeper that's and I was like, God, when do you

1192
00:56:49,719 --> 00:56:51,279
Speaker 1: gotta know when to let go? And that's a really

1193
00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:53,640
Speaker 1: hard thing to do. I think there's also but there's

1194
00:56:53,680 --> 00:56:56,520
Speaker 1: also the thing too write where like you are so

1195
00:56:56,560 --> 00:57:00,000
Speaker 1: scared of getting burned by that dude later oh yeah,

1196
00:56:59,760 --> 00:57:02,600
Speaker 1: oh that has definitely yeah, yeah, where you're like, oh

1197
00:57:02,600 --> 00:57:04,000
Speaker 1: screw it. You know, I'm not gonna fall to my

1198
00:57:04,040 --> 00:57:06,600
Speaker 1: own psychology. I'm cutting this guy. Yeah, And then in

1199
00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:10,120
Speaker 1: weeks ten, eleven, twelve, you're like, oh god, it's idiots,

1200
00:57:10,239 --> 00:57:12,200
Speaker 1: let it go. That happened to me with David Johnson

1201
00:57:12,200 --> 00:57:14,799
Speaker 1: and my league a record last year. It must have

1202
00:57:14,840 --> 00:57:17,920
Speaker 1: cut him like the week before Chris Johnson went down

1203
00:57:18,040 --> 00:57:20,720
Speaker 1: or something, and like I needed a running back so

1204
00:57:20,800 --> 00:57:22,720
Speaker 1: bad and the guy who scooped him, I'm pretty sure

1205
00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:24,520
Speaker 1: made it to the championship. And I was just like,

1206
00:57:24,840 --> 00:57:28,320
Speaker 1: I held on to you for nine weeks and now

1207
00:57:28,360 --> 00:57:32,720
Speaker 1: I finally cut made it was stupid, all right? Should

1208
00:57:32,720 --> 00:57:34,200
Speaker 1: we hit some of that steals the draft and then

1209
00:57:34,240 --> 00:57:36,080
Speaker 1: get to daily DAPs. Oh sure, I thought were doing

1210
00:57:36,120 --> 00:57:38,440
Speaker 1: daily deapp Let's steal of the draft. Let's do it

1211
00:57:38,520 --> 00:57:40,960
Speaker 1: wants to start. I mean I took Jeff Janis obviously

1212
00:57:40,960 --> 00:57:45,720
Speaker 1: steal steal. Listen, this is a serious take. The round fifteen,

1213
00:57:45,720 --> 00:57:49,360
Speaker 1: I took Sean Drawn and you know he can very

1214
00:57:49,400 --> 00:57:52,320
Speaker 1: likely to be the pass catching running back forty Niners.

1215
00:57:52,520 --> 00:57:54,800
Speaker 1: I like his clothes. I'm not sure I like him

1216
00:57:54,840 --> 00:57:57,120
Speaker 1: as a running back. Well, I mean he might not

1217
00:57:57,160 --> 00:57:59,320
Speaker 1: be good, but Chip Kelly, you know that was a

1218
00:57:59,360 --> 00:58:03,400
Speaker 1: priority signing for him. The fortyander is gonna stink? Are

1219
00:58:03,440 --> 00:58:05,280
Speaker 1: you really gonna know? Sell me on my Sean P

1220
00:58:05,400 --> 00:58:07,360
Speaker 1: Diddy Coombs joke? I mean, that's kind of not cool.

1221
00:58:07,640 --> 00:58:11,400
Speaker 1: It isn't that kind of before my time? I always

1222
00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:14,680
Speaker 1: and James is Tuesday's ruined. I always default if I

1223
00:58:14,720 --> 00:58:19,480
Speaker 1: don't get a joke, But I I really, but I do.

1224
00:58:19,560 --> 00:58:21,920
Speaker 1: I do. Like I'm not patting myself on the back here.

1225
00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:24,120
Speaker 1: It sound like a jerk, you are, but um no,

1226
00:58:24,280 --> 00:58:26,400
Speaker 1: I mean, but I think there's reasons that work out.

1227
00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:29,360
Speaker 1: I like Josh Doxon in the thirteenth round for Marcus

1228
00:58:29,440 --> 00:58:33,040
Speaker 1: like he's slipping pretty obscenely low. And if Jackson's to

1229
00:58:33,120 --> 00:58:35,720
Speaker 1: get hurt again, gets hurt again, and he could be

1230
00:58:35,760 --> 00:58:37,680
Speaker 1: like the I mean, if hurt, he's gonna be the

1231
00:58:37,680 --> 00:58:42,360
Speaker 1: primary red zone throw um one for me that I loved. Actually,

1232
00:58:42,560 --> 00:58:43,800
Speaker 1: I know you weren't a fan of your team, but

1233
00:58:44,080 --> 00:58:45,640
Speaker 1: I don't know what the hell happened in this draft

1234
00:58:45,640 --> 00:58:49,280
Speaker 1: that Kobe Fleaner fell to the twelfth round in league.

1235
00:58:49,320 --> 00:58:52,520
Speaker 1: But that's highway robbery for you scooping him up there

1236
00:58:52,560 --> 00:58:55,720
Speaker 1: considering a couple of the guys that went ahead of him,

1237
00:58:56,080 --> 00:58:58,960
Speaker 1: like Delaney Walker, and I mean I like Barnage and Green,

1238
00:58:59,000 --> 00:59:00,760
Speaker 1: don't get me wrong, but in a PR league where

1239
00:59:00,760 --> 00:59:02,400
Speaker 1: Fleaner is going to see that type of volume, getting

1240
00:59:02,440 --> 00:59:05,560
Speaker 1: him in the twelfth is just is thievery. That's the

1241
00:59:05,600 --> 00:59:08,360
Speaker 1: only part of my draft that I like. So there's

1242
00:59:08,360 --> 00:59:10,520
Speaker 1: that I did. I did like my a rob pick

1243
00:59:10,560 --> 00:59:12,520
Speaker 1: in the second round, but that's okay. But other than that,

1244
00:59:12,600 --> 00:59:15,600
Speaker 1: I absolutely hit my draft. So let's keep going. Uh,

1245
00:59:15,640 --> 00:59:20,280
Speaker 1: Franchise Steel, I like Marcus took Uh, Marcus took Marcus

1246
00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:25,439
Speaker 1: Wheaton in what is this the eleventh round? Yes, that's crazy. Yeah,

1247
00:59:25,480 --> 00:59:27,920
Speaker 1: he had the turnaround pick it's such it's very, very

1248
00:59:27,920 --> 00:59:31,160
Speaker 1: difficult um to draft from that position. But I thought

1249
00:59:31,160 --> 00:59:33,640
Speaker 1: he had some really really nice sleepers late, Marcus Wheat

1250
00:59:33,680 --> 00:59:36,360
Speaker 1: and Paul Perkins. I like Josh Doson, I like, like

1251
00:59:36,520 --> 00:59:39,000
Speaker 1: I mentioned before, Jerick McKinnon. I think it's gonna step forward.

1252
00:59:39,040 --> 00:59:41,240
Speaker 1: So um So, I thought he did a really good

1253
00:59:41,280 --> 00:59:43,120
Speaker 1: job late in his draft. He's sort of you know,

1254
00:59:43,200 --> 00:59:46,000
Speaker 1: he went Gronk number one, like with the tenth pick,

1255
00:59:46,040 --> 00:59:49,520
Speaker 1: and then kind of recovered it well after that. Because

1256
00:59:49,560 --> 00:59:51,240
Speaker 1: that kind of throws you off. I tell you what,

1257
00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:53,480
Speaker 1: if I end up tenth in my in my draft anyway,

1258
00:59:53,480 --> 00:59:56,760
Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm just not taking Gronk. It throws your

1259
00:59:56,880 --> 00:59:59,840
Speaker 1: entire draft off. I was. I was definitely on Gronk

1260
00:59:59,880 --> 01:00:02,240
Speaker 1: and first round the both of the last two years.

1261
01:00:02,280 --> 01:00:05,040
Speaker 1: But this year there's just so much depth at wide receiver,

1262
01:00:05,320 --> 01:00:07,200
Speaker 1: and they're you know, taking a stab at one of

1263
01:00:07,240 --> 01:00:09,920
Speaker 1: those potentially lead running backs like Bell Johnson or or

1264
01:00:10,400 --> 01:00:13,640
Speaker 1: m Ingram Elliott. Uh is too appealing to me. You

1265
01:00:13,680 --> 01:00:16,040
Speaker 1: know who I think is a clear steal. Round nine,

1266
01:00:16,080 --> 01:00:19,720
Speaker 1: Tory Smith, Adam Rank. It's a good show. I mean

1267
01:00:20,120 --> 01:00:21,919
Speaker 1: we were we were on a podcast last night. Allan

1268
01:00:22,400 --> 01:00:26,800
Speaker 1: just like it's a that's a steal. He's it's the

1269
01:00:27,200 --> 01:00:30,720
Speaker 1: draft price. You can know. I disagree. I think it's

1270
01:00:30,720 --> 01:00:33,400
Speaker 1: gonna take around seven of I've taken him around seven

1271
01:00:33,440 --> 01:00:35,520
Speaker 1: is several best ball leagues, and like I get, I mean,

1272
01:00:35,560 --> 01:00:37,640
Speaker 1: I get that, like that's a different format. But at

1273
01:00:37,640 --> 01:00:40,960
Speaker 1: the same time, if he's your fourth wide receiver or

1274
01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:44,200
Speaker 1: your fifth in this case for rank, that's a swish man,

1275
01:00:44,280 --> 01:00:46,760
Speaker 1: Like he's gonna lead that team and targets and again

1276
01:00:46,920 --> 01:00:50,720
Speaker 1: where they're gonna be bad. And Chip Kelly's ex speed

1277
01:00:50,760 --> 01:00:53,480
Speaker 1: receiver has been money the last couple of years with

1278
01:00:53,560 --> 01:00:56,680
Speaker 1: Deshan Jackson and Jeremy Macklin and Tory Smith is a

1279
01:00:56,680 --> 01:00:58,760
Speaker 1: good player. I mean, it's just to me, I think

1280
01:00:58,760 --> 01:01:00,680
Speaker 1: that that's a slam dunk pick. And it's the type

1281
01:01:00,720 --> 01:01:02,320
Speaker 1: of guy that when you put him in the flex

1282
01:01:02,320 --> 01:01:04,280
Speaker 1: in a PPR league, like if he hits the ceiling

1283
01:01:04,280 --> 01:01:06,600
Speaker 1: in one of those weeks, it's gonna be that throadcutter

1284
01:01:06,680 --> 01:01:09,440
Speaker 1: for you. Yeah, alright, I agree, it's it was. It

1285
01:01:09,480 --> 01:01:11,520
Speaker 1: was a really solid pick. Also, shout out to Money

1286
01:01:11,560 --> 01:01:15,400
Speaker 1: for getting Travis Benjamin in around twelve. He might he

1287
01:01:15,480 --> 01:01:17,400
Speaker 1: might not have you know, a million catches, but in

1288
01:01:17,440 --> 01:01:19,000
Speaker 1: the weeks when you start him in the right matchup.

1289
01:01:19,040 --> 01:01:20,440
Speaker 1: I know Harmon is a big fan of him. I

1290
01:01:20,720 --> 01:01:24,400
Speaker 1: like that more than his Michael Thomas picked a round before. Um. Yeah,

1291
01:01:24,440 --> 01:01:27,960
Speaker 1: I think Travis Benjamin is going to thrive San Diego.

1292
01:01:27,960 --> 01:01:30,800
Speaker 1: We talked about Philip rivers um, you know, wanting to

1293
01:01:30,920 --> 01:01:33,800
Speaker 1: throw those underneath path. He does it as body blows

1294
01:01:33,840 --> 01:01:38,040
Speaker 1: so that he could drop that long pass in there. Um.

1295
01:01:38,080 --> 01:01:40,800
Speaker 1: And he loves throwing that long pass in San Diego.

1296
01:01:40,880 --> 01:01:43,520
Speaker 1: So I think there's gonna be some weeks. Man, Travis

1297
01:01:43,520 --> 01:01:46,480
Speaker 1: Benjamin is gonna have huge He's a great best ball candidate,

1298
01:01:46,520 --> 01:01:48,720
Speaker 1: is he not? I don't. Yeah, he is a huge bargain.

1299
01:01:49,000 --> 01:01:50,920
Speaker 1: He's the type of guy too, Like when we're starting

1300
01:01:50,920 --> 01:01:53,760
Speaker 1: to think about daily fantasy, like in games where we

1301
01:01:53,800 --> 01:01:56,200
Speaker 1: expect the charges to get into shootouts, that's where we're

1302
01:01:56,200 --> 01:01:58,480
Speaker 1: really gonna like a guy like Travis Benjamin. All right,

1303
01:01:58,520 --> 01:02:06,240
Speaker 1: let's do daily DAPs to get out DestinE does I'll

01:02:29,760 --> 01:02:33,920

1310
01:02:33,920 --> 01:02:37,880
Speaker 1: this past weekend. Yesterday, I walked in their six people

1311
01:02:37,880 --> 01:02:42,120
Speaker 1: in the Fantasy Stronghold, and I got six different jokes

1312
01:02:42,160 --> 01:02:44,520
Speaker 1: about my gene. I don't know, you just bought it.

1313
01:02:44,560 --> 01:02:46,720
Speaker 1: That makes it so much better. Oh my god. I

1314
01:02:46,760 --> 01:02:49,000
Speaker 1: was so proud of it. I like to imagine James

1315
01:02:49,080 --> 01:02:51,720
Speaker 1: like at the store trying on the jacket, and I

1316
01:02:51,720 --> 01:02:55,000
Speaker 1: don't care if not this is based in reality at

1317
01:02:55,000 --> 01:02:57,560
Speaker 1: the store trying on the jacket, Like, man, this is

1318
01:02:57,600 --> 01:03:01,960
Speaker 1: gonna blow those guys a way. It works. Just walking yeah,

1319
01:03:02,080 --> 01:03:05,240
Speaker 1: just walking into just getting Oh my god, it was

1320
01:03:05,280 --> 01:03:08,800
Speaker 1: so the first And that was in the first thirty

1321
01:03:08,880 --> 01:03:12,240
Speaker 1: seconds of walking into the news room. Then as I'm

1322
01:03:12,280 --> 01:03:15,840
Speaker 1: just walking around the NFL media campus, I would say

1323
01:03:16,080 --> 01:03:20,280
Speaker 1: ten of the first ten people I saw made jokes

1324
01:03:20,840 --> 01:03:23,560
Speaker 1: about my Jeane jacket. Yeah. I mean, in your defense,

1325
01:03:23,680 --> 01:03:25,480
Speaker 1: you pulled you pulled it off, James, But it was

1326
01:03:25,560 --> 01:03:29,520
Speaker 1: just it looks. Look, it's just such a unique wardrobe

1327
01:03:29,520 --> 01:03:31,840
Speaker 1: piece that people are closed to comment about the thing

1328
01:03:31,880 --> 01:03:33,520
Speaker 1: is I was gonna wear it for NFL now and

1329
01:03:33,560 --> 01:03:37,000
Speaker 1: then my NFL now appears got canceled, and now just

1330
01:03:37,120 --> 01:03:41,840
Speaker 1: they're mortalized. Here's here's the way to compare it, Like harmon,

1331
01:03:41,920 --> 01:03:46,000
Speaker 1: I'm sure could pull off suspenders in like that easy

1332
01:03:46,280 --> 01:03:48,240
Speaker 1: and I've done so. And if but if he wore

1333
01:03:48,280 --> 01:03:51,160
Speaker 1: them in the office, legitimately every person that walked by

1334
01:03:51,160 --> 01:03:54,000
Speaker 1: the stronghold would make a comment that's oh, yeah, that's

1335
01:03:54,000 --> 01:03:56,080
Speaker 1: the kind of place we work. Yeah, that's the problem

1336
01:03:56,080 --> 01:03:58,920
Speaker 1: of like working in like basically a locker room. It

1337
01:03:59,080 --> 01:04:01,520
Speaker 1: is like you just it's like it's like in a

1338

01:05:22,120 --> 01:05:24,520
Speaker 1: it's James co. So apparently I have a nice voice

1364
01:05:24,520 --> 01:05:28,320
Speaker 1: and a horrendous laugh. You can't you can't win them all, James.

1365
01:05:28,360 --> 01:05:29,880
Speaker 1: You know what, I'll take it. I'll take it. Those

1366
01:05:29,880 --> 01:05:33,000
Speaker 1: are my daily DAPs, beautiful franchise. Al Right, my daily

1367
01:05:33,040 --> 01:05:36,480
Speaker 1: depths is going to a game that I played this

1368
01:05:36,520 --> 01:05:40,240
Speaker 1: weekend with my family. H It's called Past the Pigs,

1369
01:05:40,440 --> 01:05:45,680
Speaker 1: Past the Pigs, and basically it's dice. You're you're rolling dice,

1370
01:05:45,720 --> 01:05:48,440
Speaker 1: but the dice aren't actual cubes of dice. They're little

1371
01:05:48,480 --> 01:05:52,200
Speaker 1: pig figurines and they have like dots on them, and

1372
01:05:52,240 --> 01:05:55,360
Speaker 1: depending on how the pigs land, you get certain amount

1373
01:05:55,360 --> 01:05:57,600
Speaker 1: of points and it's like first player to to a

1374
01:05:57,680 --> 01:06:00,000
Speaker 1: hundred points or whatever wins. But it's so much fun

1375
01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:02,840
Speaker 1: because you're rolling pigs and the way they land that

1376
01:06:02,880 --> 01:06:04,720
Speaker 1: there's different names for them, Like if they land on

1377
01:06:04,840 --> 01:06:07,560
Speaker 1: all four feet, it's called a trotter. If they land

1378
01:06:07,640 --> 01:06:09,640
Speaker 1: like on their nose with their butt in the air,

1379
01:06:09,680 --> 01:06:12,560
Speaker 1: it's called a snouter. Franchise was talking to us about

1380
01:06:12,560 --> 01:06:14,400
Speaker 1: this before the podcast and how almost like what the hell,

1381
01:06:14,480 --> 01:06:16,000
Speaker 1: And I was like, Yeah, I played this game. It's

1382
01:06:16,000 --> 01:06:18,240
Speaker 1: like it's like an all time cabin game. Yeah, like

1383
01:06:18,240 --> 01:06:21,760
Speaker 1: if your family somebody has no I don't know. It's

1384
01:06:21,760 --> 01:06:24,480
Speaker 1: pretty old school. It's been around for a while. It's

1385
01:06:24,480 --> 01:06:26,240
Speaker 1: the kind of game a family had and probably like

1386
01:06:26,280 --> 01:06:28,600
Speaker 1: the seventies something and then just stuck in their cabin

1387
01:06:28,760 --> 01:06:30,720
Speaker 1: or like if it's a hunted out that kind of game,

1388
01:06:31,280 --> 01:06:34,600
Speaker 1: like backgam and chest or like the old school life

1389
01:06:34,640 --> 01:06:36,240
Speaker 1: kind of thing. It's one of those that you always

1390
01:06:36,240 --> 01:06:38,200
Speaker 1: find in a cabin and it's fun. Well, when Dad

1391
01:06:38,280 --> 01:06:42,480
Speaker 1: Chies and his his family was crossing the Great Crossing

1392
01:06:42,520 --> 01:06:45,360
Speaker 1: the Great Plains during the during the Pioneer days, I

1393
01:06:45,360 --> 01:06:47,080
Speaker 1: guess they played that's sorry, we used to carve the

1394
01:06:47,120 --> 01:06:52,840
Speaker 1: pigs out of wood. But no me, My I was.

1395
01:06:52,960 --> 01:06:55,360
Speaker 1: I was. I was at a beach house in Monterey

1396
01:06:55,400 --> 01:06:57,280
Speaker 1: with my dad and we were like at target, trying

1397
01:06:57,280 --> 01:06:59,720
Speaker 1: to find a game we wanted, like a card game

1398
01:06:59,800 --> 01:07:01,520
Speaker 1: or just thinking. It was like, well, past the pigs

1399
01:07:01,520 --> 01:07:03,480
Speaker 1: and it was ten bucks. My dad used to play

1400
01:07:03,520 --> 01:07:05,040
Speaker 1: when I was a kid, and so we brought it home.

1401
01:07:05,040 --> 01:07:07,480
Speaker 1: It was a huge hit. Everyone loves it. There's so

1402
01:07:07,480 --> 01:07:09,920
Speaker 1: many jokes to be had about rolling pigs on a table,

1403
01:07:10,040 --> 01:07:13,400
Speaker 1: so that I was worried for a second that we

1404
01:07:13,400 --> 01:07:15,320
Speaker 1: were gonna have to edit that out. I really was.

1405
01:07:15,360 --> 01:07:17,560
Speaker 1: I wasn't sure where we're going past the pigs. This

1406
01:07:17,600 --> 01:07:21,840
Speaker 1: could past, this could be dangerous pigs, okay, And then

1407
01:07:21,840 --> 01:07:23,840
Speaker 1: it ended up being It's a family a lot of fun.

1408
01:07:23,920 --> 01:07:26,480
Speaker 1: That's clearly that was invented in the eight hundreds. Alex

01:09:31,320 --> 01:09:33,080
Speaker 1: lot of podcasts. One of my favorite ones that I

1453
01:09:33,160 --> 01:09:37,120
Speaker 1: started listening to was an NPR podcast called Invisibilia. It's

1454
01:09:37,160 --> 01:09:40,840
Speaker 1: about the hidden forces that or maybe that's the hidden

1455
01:09:40,880 --> 01:09:42,600
Speaker 1: brain never mind, no, but it's like it's like a

1456
01:09:42,640 --> 01:09:46,280
Speaker 1: psychological podcast at social sciences and everything like that. I

1457
01:09:46,320 --> 01:09:48,240
Speaker 1: can't remember the exact description of it, but one of

1458
01:09:48,280 --> 01:09:50,400
Speaker 1: the great ones was it's a more recent one that

01:09:55,560 --> 01:09:57,120
Speaker 1: not set in stone and how we can change and

1462
01:09:57,160 --> 01:09:59,240
Speaker 1: we we view people like even when we get married,

1463
01:09:59,360 --> 01:10:03,439
Speaker 1: like I'm not we but when people make that mistake, uh,

1464
01:10:03,600 --> 01:10:06,160
Speaker 1: they go and they like kind of think, you know,
