1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:13,080
Speaker 1: Wow, Hey everybody, welcome to another edition of the NFL

Speaker 1: still have the podcast for you, but in terms of

Speaker 1: you seeing our wonderful faces on your live streams and

9
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 1: fast channels and all that, I guess to wait till

10
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:40,760
Speaker 1: next year for that to happen. But we have plenty

11
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:43,159
Speaker 1: to talk about as we wrap things up on this

12
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:45,760
Speaker 1: show here today. Still to come. We are setting some

13
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 1: daily fantasy lineups for Week eighteen because we know some

14
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 1: of you out there are still jones and to play

15
00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 1: a little fantasy in this final week of the NFL

16
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 1: regular season. Plus handing out some postseason awards, giving you

17
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:57,720
Speaker 1: a way too early mock draft for twenty twenty six,

18
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 1: and one final Harold Fannin Watch for the season. So

19
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 1: there we go. I want to start though, because I

20
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,559
Speaker 1: know for most folks the fantasy season is over. First

21
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,039
Speaker 1: of all, congratulations to all of you out there who

22
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 1: won a fantasy championship. Anybody have some tales of victory

23
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 1: that they want to share with the Class Florida. I

24
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,000
Speaker 1: know you had a pretty successful fantasy season.

25
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,640
Speaker 2: I was in four championships and the one I was

26
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 2: most confident in was my home league, and yet everyone

27
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:31,200
Speaker 2: there just defecated the bed. It was awful, but I

28
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 2: did win two. One of them came down to if

29
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 2: Caleb Williams threw a touchdown or not on that final

30
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,479
Speaker 2: passing attempt. If he did, I would have lost. Luckily

31
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:43,720
Speaker 2: he didn't. But then on Monday night, I was losing

32
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 2: all night and then Kyron got hot in the fourth

33
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 2: quarter put me up five. My opponent had Puka. On

34
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 2: that Puka Nakua touchdown, he went up two and a

35
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,919
Speaker 2: half points. Again, I had Kirk Cousins and Kyle Pitts,

36
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 2: though they connected for a ten yard pass.

37
00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 3: That put me up by point one. And then it

38
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 3: came down to.

39
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 2: If that Pooka Nakula catch was a catch or not,

40
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 2: and that is what I won by point one because

41
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 2: it wasn't a catch.

42
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,799
Speaker 3: But let me tell you that sweat was crazy.

43
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,079
Speaker 1: It was a hell of an effort. Though by Pooka,

44
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,640
Speaker 1: I mean, that was like a holy bleep moment. And

45
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:22,079
Speaker 1: then we all saw the replayer like, uh, I sat.

46
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,240
Speaker 2: Down and I dropped my phone and I was like,

47
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 2: I just lost and I can't even be mad, Like

48
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 2: that's the catch of the year.

49
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 3: And then luckily it wasn't a catch.

50
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 4: I know we're all waiting for me to crash out.

51
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:36,799
Speaker 4: I was internally crashing.

52
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 1: Nobody wanted you to crash out. It was a thing

53
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:40,280
Speaker 1: that happened.

54
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,679
Speaker 4: That was one of that was one of the highlights

55
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 4: of the game where I'm just like, I hope that

56
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:47,680
Speaker 4: this is a catch, because this is the catch of

57
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 4: the century. This is erasing Odell Beckham's one handed catch

58
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 4: because look how he was able to bring that ball

59
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 4: in the split second that he lost control. He was

60
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,360
Speaker 4: already out of balance. I understand you, let's complete the process,

61
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,080
Speaker 4: but come on, man, it was such a beautiful catch.

62
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 4: They should have just gave it to him. Man, but

63
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:07,680
Speaker 4: we all know that wasn't gonna happen.

64
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:10,239
Speaker 1: I mean, look, if the officials believed in the rule

65
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 1: of cool, it absolutely would have been a catch. Unfortunately,

66
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:16,079
Speaker 1: they go by the rule of rules, which means it

67
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 1: was a catch the.

68
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,800
Speaker 4: One time for cool points to be added. Come on, like,

69
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:22,920
Speaker 4: you gotta get some type of fantasy points for that.

70
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was very happy. Well, I would say this.

71
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 4: I lost my championship actually by point three, and I

72
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 4: sent you guys a screenshot of who was I going

73
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 4: up against, and it was the Rams defense and Matthew Stafford.

74
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 4: So I lost my point three because Stafford ended up

75
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 4: rallying out at a halftime. But it's cool that league.

76
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 4: I always have fun with. You were King's family out there.

77
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 4: I wanted to win just to say, is this is

78
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 4: your king? I'm your king now, being that I'm not family.

79
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 4: But it was all messed up and I'll accept second

80
00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 4: place in that league. But it was a hard faught season,

81
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 4: man like I wasn't even supposed to be there, to

82
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 4: be honest, with as many injuries I had.

83
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 1: Well, I was in three semi finals. I got bounced

84
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 1: in two of them. The one championship that I was in,

85
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:10,839
Speaker 1: it was pretty much a wrap on Saturday night after

86
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 1: I got Derek hen Reid, so pretty much opened up

87
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 1: things for my Sunday. I got to just go and

88
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 1: enjoy the day and not have to worry about it.

89
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 1: So silver linings, I guess I don't know, but that

90
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,280
Speaker 1: does get us too. Sort of our playoff wrap up

91
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 1: here in the fantasy space and figured we do our

92
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 1: fantasy MVPs and lvps. Let's start on the good side

93
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,919
Speaker 1: of things, Lakwan, who was the most valuable player for

94
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 1: you in the fantasy playoffs?

95
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 4: It has to be Chase Brown. Like I know, we

96
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:43,840
Speaker 4: all remember that first half of a season where folks

97
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,160
Speaker 4: were even talking about dropping and folks were talking about

98
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,760
Speaker 4: trading him. But if you did trade for him during

99
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 4: the trade deadline, you got a gem because once he

100
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,279
Speaker 4: picked it up. Man, from week nine to week seventeen,

101
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 4: he was averaging twenty Fantasy points per game. He finished

102
00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 4: as the RB six. My guy was getting a hundred

103
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 4: in seven screaming yards per game. This is one of

104
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 4: the best performances I've seen from a running back who

105
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,840
Speaker 4: had such a hard season. Like I look at Chase

106
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 4: Brown going into next year. We don't need the debate

107
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,840
Speaker 4: or question anything about his game. We don't need to

108
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 4: question his situation. There was even folks in the fantasy

109
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,719
Speaker 4: streets whispering firm Madre p Ron, get out of here

110
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,679
Speaker 4: with that. My guy's like forty years old.

111
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:21,920
Speaker 1: Man.

112
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 4: We got Chase Brown. He is the youth of that backfield,

113
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:28,279
Speaker 4: and I'm looking forward to drafting him accordingly, where I

114
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 4: would say in the second round feels very comfortable for

115
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:32,360
Speaker 4: Chase Brown was a full workload.

116
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 1: You just need Joe Burrow to stay healthy because Jake

117
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 1: Browning was the problem right when Jake Browning was in there.

118
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,280
Speaker 1: It was an issue when Joe Flacco came and took over,

119
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,840
Speaker 1: and then it became good again. So you just need

120
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:47,040
Speaker 1: for Joe Burrow to stay upright, which given his history,

121
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,359
Speaker 1: is sort of a fifty to fifty proposition. We'll see

122
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 1: how this goes.

123
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,320
Speaker 4: Is he going to be there next year though, Marcus

124
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 4: Joe Burrow, Joe Burrow is going to be there next year, Like,

125
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 4: let's not even open that day.

126
00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:01,000
Speaker 1: It's not the NBA. This is not the where your

127
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:04,160
Speaker 1: star gets disgruntled and then you trade him for like salary,

128
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 1: cap space and a whole bunch of picks. The NFL,

129
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,679
Speaker 1: they do not trade E league quarterbacks in their prime

130
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:10,799
Speaker 1: that are under contract. He's going to be in Cincinnati

131
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 1: next year. You will see video of him crossing the

132
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 1: street on the crosswalk to get to the practice field,

133
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 1: like it's going to happen, because that's just how things

134
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 1: go in Cincinnati, Florida. Your playoff MVP.

135
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,040
Speaker 2: Look, Jase Brown did help me win a league. Another

136
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:28,600
Speaker 2: player who helped me win a league, Rock Party. Look,

137
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,919
Speaker 2: he literally matched his jersey number in touchdowns in the

138
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:36,680
Speaker 2: Fantasy playoffs. He the first week was easy, right, he

139
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 2: gave you twenty six just three touchdowns. That was just

140
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 2: him warming up, though, because then the next week it

141
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:46,000
Speaker 2: was thirty one Fantasy points and five touchdowns. And then

142
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:47,599
Speaker 2: he was like, you know what, I'm gonna do you

143
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:50,920
Speaker 2: one better. I'm gonna still get you five touchdowns. Two

144
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 2: of them are going to be on the ground. I'm

145
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 2: gonna go full Josh Allen mode on one of my

146
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 2: passing touchdowns, which was maybe the best play I've ever

147
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,240
Speaker 2: seen Brock Purdy make. And then he hit the cleanest

148
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,239
Speaker 2: douggie you'll ever see after it, and he scored thirty

149
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 2: seven Fantasy points in the championship. I know it's the

150
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 2: second most per hour handle. It's the second most a

151
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 2: quarterback has ever scored in the Fantasy Playoffs, behind only

152
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence. But I will push back and say Lawrence

153
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 2: had his best game in Week fifteen, Brock Purdy Saint

154
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:29,679
Speaker 2: is for the game that mattered most. So to me, Marcus,

155
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 2: I'm giving your your qbs some love and saying, Brock

156
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 2: party is this year's MVP.

157
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:35,119
Speaker 3: Fantasy MVP.

158
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 1: Maybe, like Brock, what can you teach me how to Douggie?

159
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 1: You know why? Because Fantasy managers love me clean Dougie,

160
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 1: that bron be. No, that was clean. Mac Jones was clean.

161
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 1: Now Mac got some rhythms. No, no, no, no, we're

162
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 1: not We're not. No, no we're not We're not doing that.

163
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 1: It was it was clean. You just gotta you just

164
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 1: gotta accept it. That's all there is to it. It

165
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 1: was bro Yeah. Man, it's the Perduggie and it's just driving.

166
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 1: It's driving folks crazy. The per Dougie is doing it.

167
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 1: I hate this show. Tell you. Oh my god, you

168
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:18,120
Speaker 1: mentioned my playoff MVP. It's Trevor Lawrence, who was fantastic

169
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 1: down the stretch and yeah, sure, maybe he didn't have

170
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 1: his best game in Championship week, still scored twenty three

171
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 1: points and I will take that all day, every day.

172
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 1: But back to back thirty plus point games leading up

173
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:33,200
Speaker 1: to it, and in the last month of the season,

174
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,959
Speaker 1: we saw the Prince who was promised. We saw Clemson

175
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 1: version of Trevor Lawrence. We saw the generational quarterback that

176
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 1: we were hoping to see from the time he was drafted.

177
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:45,600
Speaker 1: And I said this to you. I don't know if

178
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 1: I said it on the air are off air, but

179
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 1: it just it made me think of what could have

180
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:55,559
Speaker 1: been if he didn't just lose an entire rookie season

181
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 1: with Urban Meyer, if you didn't have to go through

182
00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 1: multiple head coaches and play call in the first couple

183
00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:03,320
Speaker 1: of years, if he was just able to settle into

184
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 1: a system. Would we have seen this version of Trevor

185
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 1: Lawrence earlier. But shout out to Liam Cohen for making

186
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,600
Speaker 1: it happen now. He was just amazing down the stretch,

187
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 1: you know. And look we went in the season he

188
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,959
Speaker 1: was he was Team mid right, we had the middle

189
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 1: meter for a good chunk of the season. But you know,

190
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 1: give the dude his flowers, man, because he was great,

191
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 1: especially when you needed him in the fantasy postseason. And

192
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 1: now I'm very curious, not for this show, but for

193
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:32,200
Speaker 1: future shows where his ADP is going to be next year.

194
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 1: How we are feeling about Trevor Lawrence. You know, was

195
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 1: he a product of the last month. Is there something there?

196
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:39,599
Speaker 1: I think that's going to be a really interesting conversation

197
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,080
Speaker 1: to have as we get into the spring in the summer.

198
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 1: Oh so, if we're gonna do the most valuable player,

199
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 1: we have to do the least valuable player, the guy

200
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 1: that was just a boat anchor on your roster for

201
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 1: the last three or four weeks, Lakwan, who was that

202
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:52,960
Speaker 1: to you?

203
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 4: So to me man, just looking at other rosters, hearing

204
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,280
Speaker 4: other stories, other fantasy rosters that got bounced out of

205
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,720
Speaker 4: the first round, the second round, or lost the championship

206
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,839
Speaker 4: with Bucky Irvin, and I understand this because again, the

207
00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:08,200
Speaker 4: hype was real in the summer. The hype was all

208
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:10,960
Speaker 4: about Bucky Irvin, Like, we need to get this guy

209
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,320
Speaker 4: in the first round. He needs to be acquired early.

210
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 4: He's an RB nine in the draft. I get it.

211
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 4: But in the three weeks that you absolutely needed him,

212
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 4: my guy put up less than eight points in three

213
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 4: straight games. So you got knocked out in the first round,

214
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 4: got knocked out in the second round if you ended

215
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:27,480
Speaker 4: up making there, and he sure didn't help you win

216
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:30,800
Speaker 4: a championship. He only has two games over four point

217
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:34,080
Speaker 4: zero yards per carry. My biggest questions in the summer

218
00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:37,719
Speaker 4: qub if we have the tweet I was questioning my

219
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:42,439
Speaker 4: guys workload, I was questioning the old line. I said,

220
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 4: I had nineteen running backs I'd rather have. I hate

221
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 4: that Joe Mixon's on this list because he did not play,

222
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 4: but I said I would rather have nineteen running backs.

223
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:54,439
Speaker 4: Didn't have him Bucky Irvin going off the board at

224
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:57,679
Speaker 4: RB nine because the simple fact, once we saw him

225
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,199
Speaker 4: get a full workload, that's when we saw him out.

226
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 4: We saw him battle multiple injuries. We already knew there

227
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 4: was questions around. There's no line dealing with injuries and

228
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 4: missing pieces. So I will say this, this is a

229
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:10,640
Speaker 4: victory lap. I'm gonna take it. Where I'm from, they

230
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 4: don't give you flowers.

231
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 2: I gotta take them.

232
00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:14,720
Speaker 4: They only give you flowers when you're gone. So I'm

233
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 4: gonna take this victory lap and still have those same

234
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,400
Speaker 4: questions about Bucky Irvin going into the next season because

235
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 4: if that old line is not fixed through the draft,

236
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,319
Speaker 4: through off off season moves, I am not touching Bucky

237
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 4: Irvin at all, even though he had an amazing start.

238
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,880
Speaker 4: Only look I would say this, I am appreciative that

239
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,200
Speaker 4: he gave us RB two numbers throughout the season, but

240
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 4: it has been a roller coaster trying to roster a

241
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 4: guy that you probably took way too high.

242
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. I still like Bucky Irving. I

243
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:44,840
Speaker 1: hear everything you're saying. I do. I hear everything you're saying.

244
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 1: I still like Bucky Irving and like I especially if

245
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:49,600
Speaker 1: he's getting drafted as an RB two. I'll take that

246
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,760
Speaker 1: all day, like that's where we should have But he

247
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:55,400
Speaker 1: was maybe he wasn't, but he was an RB one

248
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 1: before he got hurt, and then he spend it, you know,

249
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 1: extended time out, and then it just I don't know.

250
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:02,640
Speaker 1: I felt like it wasn't the same the whole Bucks

251
00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 1: offense collapse in the second half of the season. It

252
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:05,959
Speaker 1: wasn't just him.

253
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,280
Speaker 3: That sweet was the only place we saw Joe Mixon

254
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:08,679
Speaker 3: all year.

255
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:16,320
Speaker 1: But look, I mean, he's not wrong.

256
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:20,600
Speaker 2: He is not he's been he's been missing since. We

257
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:22,840
Speaker 2: haven't even seen a picture of him.

258
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like, can we get a wellness.

259
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 3: Check, Florida?

260
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,719
Speaker 1: Who's your LVP for the playoffs?

261
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 3: I think it's a pretty clear.

262
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 2: One in this year's playoffs, because if you have Josh Jacobs.

263
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,600
Speaker 3: You undoubtedly one hundred started him right.

264
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 2: It's not even like some of these other players where

265
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:45,640
Speaker 2: they were kind of struggling and you were like, maybe

266
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,280
Speaker 2: I could get away like he did. I'll give him credit.

267
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:51,440
Speaker 2: He had twenty three Fantasy points against the Denver Broncos

268
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:54,720
Speaker 2: in Week fifteen. Then you see the Chicago Bears on

269
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 2: the schedule, and I know he was up in the

270
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:58,679
Speaker 2: air and people were like, maybe it just sit so

271
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 2: we could get Emmanuel Wilson in here. Nope, he was like,

272
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 2: I am playing in a great matchup against the Bears.

273
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 2: So fantasy manager started him, right. If Josh Jacobs plays.

274
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:08,640
Speaker 3: You started him.

275
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:13,079
Speaker 2: He scored four point eight Fantasy points and if you

276
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 2: somehow manage that, then you were like, all right, well

277
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:18,080
Speaker 2: he's playing in the championship week.

278
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:19,559
Speaker 3: I'm throwing him out there.

279
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,640
Speaker 2: And I know people started him because in the one

280
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:24,560
Speaker 2: of the two leagues that I won, the only reason

281
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 2: I won because my team did not put up numbers,

282
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:30,559
Speaker 2: was because my opponent had Josh Jacobs. And literally, going

283
00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 2: into that Saturday night game, my opponent because I had

284
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 2: Jared Goff and Jamison Williams, who were awful, he was

285
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 2: like a seventy five percent chance of winning.

286
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:40,439
Speaker 3: Josh Jacobs gave him point.

287
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:43,160
Speaker 2: Eight and a half PPR, and I left that night

288
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 2: as the favorite and I ended up winning. And even

289
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:48,840
Speaker 2: in PPR, he gave you three yards of one point

290
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:51,679
Speaker 2: three Fantasy points for a guy that was supposed to

291
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 2: be your RB one for someone that I know you started,

292
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 2: because if he's again, if.

293
00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:59,200
Speaker 3: He's playing, you're playing him. Was he was.

294
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 2: I know he's not hell, but any team that had

295
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 2: Josh Jacobs, if you somehow won a championship, good luck.

296
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:08,080
Speaker 2: I tweeted out yesterday like the players that cost everyone

297
00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:10,680
Speaker 2: a title, and I was getting responses like, oh I

298
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 2: won with this person still on my tea, not a

299
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:15,360
Speaker 2: single person was like I won with Josh Jacobs. So

300
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:19,800
Speaker 2: I know he's unhealthy, but I do think he costs

301
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 2: more people championships than.

302
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,600
Speaker 1: Anyone because he was so good. He was one of

303
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:25,400
Speaker 1: those guys where it was hard to sit him because

304
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:28,400
Speaker 1: you knew what the ceiling was, except he was nowhere

305
00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 1: near that ceiling and the floor just fell out from

306
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 1: underneath you in the end. Mike Tyler Warren, who even

307
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:38,640
Speaker 1: before Philip Rivers came and took over Tyler Warren was

308
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 1: already starting to slump. We saw that before Daniel Jones

309
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,080
Speaker 1: got hurt, that he was starting to fall back a

310
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 1: little bit. But for whatever reason, we believe that somehow

311
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 1: he would be okay with Philip Rivers.

312
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:49,040
Speaker 2: Right.

313
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:52,840
Speaker 1: We watched that first game for the Rivers against the Seahawks,

314
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 1: who couldn't push the ball down on field, and we're thinking, okay, well,

315
00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:57,680
Speaker 1: at the tight end, he's been getting a ton of

316
00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 1: targets all year long, he's running shorter routes, this should

317
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 1: work out. It didn't. They just could not connect for

318
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 1: whatever reason. Even when he was targeted, they just could

319
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 1: not find a way to get the ball to Warren.

320
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 1: When they did, it was all really short yardage. I mean,

321
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 1: he was catching the ball with the line of scrimmage

322
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 1: line on the screen. It just was bad. I still

323
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 1: believe there's hope for Tyler Warren. I think he can

324
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:23,000
Speaker 1: bounce back next year. That he's too big a part

325
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 1: of what the Colts want to do offensively. But man,

326
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 1: if you were tied to him down the stretch, you

327
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 1: sort of fell out of contention kind of like the

328
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:33,680
Speaker 1: Colts did, and you definitely did not win a fantasy

329
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 1: championship because Tyler Warren just just pulled a disappearing act

330
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:40,400
Speaker 1: on you at the worst possible moment in your fantasy season.

331
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:43,400
Speaker 1: So we are not disappearing. We're sticking around for a

332
00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 1: little bit longer, but we are going to take a

333
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 1: quick break, come back and look into these Saturday games

334
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,320
Speaker 1: because there are still some games happening, So we got

335
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,160
Speaker 1: to catch up on that and a whole lot more

336
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 1: coming up, some more fantasy awards and the like here

337
00:15:54,520 --> 00:16:00,760
Speaker 1: on the NFL Fantasy Football Show, taking a look at

338
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 1: the huge Saturday night matchup between the Seahawks and the

339
00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 1: forty nine ers. Here are the first to score a

340
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 1: touchdown odds in that game. Christian McCaffrey very little surprised

341
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 1: at the top of the list, followed by a trio

342
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 1: of Seahawks Jackson Smith and Jigmazax, Charmonay and Kenneth Walker

343
00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:21,280
Speaker 1: the third, and got George Kittle rounding out the top five. Lakwan,

344
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 1: anybody there you particularly like got to score the first touchdown?

345
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 4: Where's Juwan Jennings? I mean, like he's been able to

346
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:30,360
Speaker 4: find the end zone? Like I'm just really curious of

347
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 4: where the wide receivers are but I guess, you know,

348
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 4: hopefully you guys put up a good fight because you know,

349
00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 4: I'm rooting for the Seahawks in this game, obviously, right

350
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 4: are you?

351
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:41,280
Speaker 1: That's not what you said in the text chat this morning.

352
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 4: Don't worry about what I said in the text chat,

353
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 4: but I'm saying it now. I hope the Seahawks win.

354
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 1: True, whatever, there's still the five seed anyway, Florida will

355
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:58,760
Speaker 1: looking at this game, particularly Sam Darnold, who struggled down

356
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:02,040
Speaker 1: the stretch. Would you throw him in a lineup if

357
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:03,680
Speaker 1: you're playing DFS, would you throw him in line up

358
00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 1: against a Niner defense that just cannot get pressure on anybody? Yes?

359
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 2: Because of that, right, Like, if you give Sam Darnold time,

360
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 2: that's when he's at his best. And even more than

361
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:16,879
Speaker 2: that one, those jerseys in this video are clean. Also,

362
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:19,719
Speaker 2: they made Philip Rivers look good for a stretch. They

363
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,960
Speaker 2: made Kate like Caleb was awesome up until that final

364
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:27,040
Speaker 2: throw where he had a dude open too, Like on

365
00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:29,640
Speaker 2: that place specifically, I was sitting there like, all right,

366
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 2: you're giving him twelve seconds. He's gonna find someone, right,

367
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 2: And like that was just one play. It was all

368
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:37,240
Speaker 2: night like that and as much as you guys struggle

369
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,439
Speaker 2: to get after the quarterback, your secondary it's better than

370
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:42,359
Speaker 2: your pass rush. But it's not like it's like the

371
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 2: Legion of Boom out there or whatever, so they could

372
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:45,960
Speaker 2: be had as well.

373
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I think part of the reason the

374
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:51,040
Speaker 1: secondary struggles is because past rush can't get there right in.

375
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,760
Speaker 1: The quarterback has all day to stand around. You just

376
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:56,880
Speaker 1: can't cover that long. But I think that's absolutely true.

377
00:17:57,680 --> 00:17:59,440
Speaker 1: On top of that pass rush though LaQuan it's a

378
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:01,840
Speaker 1: front for the it just does not really stop the

379
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:05,440
Speaker 1: run particularly well. Althose weird because while Philip Rivers was

380
00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:07,439
Speaker 1: carving them up in the first half, Jonathan Taylor kept

381
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 1: running into brick walls all over and over again. That

382
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:14,359
Speaker 1: being said, if you're looking at the Seattle running backs,

383
00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:18,360
Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker or Zach Sharbonay, either neither or both this week.

384
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 4: Both, I think you could put both of them in

385
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:23,880
Speaker 4: that lineup. Honestly, because we're looking at the Seahawks offense.

386
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,359
Speaker 4: When they get in rhythm, they're able to run the ball.

387
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:29,560
Speaker 4: They have this duo where you can see Zach Sharbonay

388
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:31,720
Speaker 4: come in within the five yard line and sneak in

389
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:33,840
Speaker 4: a touchdown or two. And I think this is going

390
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 4: to be a game that the Seahawks getting scoring distance

391
00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:38,359
Speaker 4: more often than not. So when they get in that

392
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:41,399
Speaker 4: red zone, you can honestly see maybe a Kenneth Walker

393
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 4: coming out. I mean, looking at both these running backs,

394
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:45,520
Speaker 4: I think they're going to have very good games, so

395
00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:47,159
Speaker 4: where you could both rely on both of them in

396
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:48,359
Speaker 4: DFS lineups.

397
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:50,720
Speaker 1: I'm very curious about the next year too, like how

398
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,120
Speaker 1: we value them, because as long as they're both there

399
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,119
Speaker 1: and they're both being used the same way, Like I

400
00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:57,919
Speaker 1: think the Kenneth Walker excitement is going to fade. But

401
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:01,239
Speaker 1: also nobody's excited about Zach Sharpie, so let's just like

402
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:04,160
Speaker 1: throw the whole backfield away kind of situation.

403
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,120
Speaker 3: They need to rebuild that O line more than anything.

404
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's part of it too, for sure.

405
00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:11,719
Speaker 4: Or just give Kenneth Walker the ball, that's it.

406
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:13,560
Speaker 1: I mean you would think so. But you know there's

407
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 1: all this shadow, I mean, like why he's being on

408
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:16,520
Speaker 1: Zach Sharper and there's all this shatter coming out of

409
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:18,880
Speaker 1: Seattle about how he was coming for Kenneth Walker's job

410
00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:20,919
Speaker 1: and they were so frustrated with him, and for like

411
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:23,159
Speaker 1: a week. It seemed like a thing, and then all

412
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 1: of a sudden, Kenneth Walker rips off like a thirty

413
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 1: yard run as he I was like, oh, yeah, that's

414
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,000
Speaker 1: why we have explosive.

415
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,600
Speaker 2: Kenneth Walker, as much as I like him, is one

416
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:34,560
Speaker 2: of those running backs whose stats make him look a

417
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:37,040
Speaker 2: lot like he'll be one yard, one yard, one yard,

418
00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:40,080
Speaker 2: one yard, thirty yards and it's like, oh, is that

419
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:43,320
Speaker 2: that he's really good? And it's like coaches hate those

420
00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:45,680
Speaker 2: backs that don't just move the chains.

421
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,960
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, it's it's it's an epidemic, right. I

422
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 1: think it's gonna be interesting. Yeah. I think we need

423
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 1: to break him down kind of on a carry by

424
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:54,439
Speaker 1: carry basis, not even a game by game, just like

425
00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 1: a snap by snap basis for Kenneth Walker to evaluate him.

426
00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 1: Any worries about Juwan Jennings. Lawan mentioned him just a

427
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:05,959
Speaker 1: little bit ago going against that Seattle secondary that's been

428
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:07,080
Speaker 1: tough on people this year.

429
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 2: If you're playing Week eighteen, which shouldn't be, you probably

430
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:12,880
Speaker 2: got to start him. But if you're like in DFS,

431
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 2: I would avoid him. I have look, Dawan Jennings helped

432
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,200
Speaker 2: me in that league that came down to the final

433
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:20,160
Speaker 2: play on Monday night.

434
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:21,479
Speaker 3: Win that league.

435
00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:26,639
Speaker 2: But having him, it's been super touchdown reliant because you

436
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:28,960
Speaker 2: look at his game log, like he had two catches

437
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,720
Speaker 2: the other night, and he since week three he has

438
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:35,080
Speaker 2: topped fifty five yards just twice. Most weeks he's in

439
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 2: the thirties or forties. But he scored a touchdown in

440
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:42,200
Speaker 2: I think it's eight of his last nine games, like like,

441
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:44,760
Speaker 2: so that helps you and it makes the floor a

442
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,639
Speaker 2: little bit safer. But he's facing the team that doesn't

443
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:49,720
Speaker 2: really allow a whole lot of scores to receivers. So

444
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,639
Speaker 2: the thing is, like the upside is there because of

445
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 2: he is brock Perdi's go to guy in the red zone,

446
00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:58,040
Speaker 2: but if he doesn't catch a touchdown, the floor is

447
00:20:58,080 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 2: pretty low.

448
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:01,400
Speaker 1: The ohther part is Rick Piersoll, now that he's back

449
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 1: and healthy, is starting to get some more opportunities in

450
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:07,280
Speaker 1: that offense. And even without George Kittle, we saw a

451
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:12,400
Speaker 1: lot of Jake Tanjis last week against the Bears, sot

452
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:13,399
Speaker 1: a lot of competition.

453
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:16,200
Speaker 3: Are you guys playing Kittle this week or you you

454
00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:16,880
Speaker 3: holding him?

455
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:21,119
Speaker 1: I'm I mean in real life? Are in fantasy? Oh? No?

456
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:23,120
Speaker 3: Real life? Like the forty nine I.

457
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 1: Believe they want him to play. I know they were

458
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,760
Speaker 1: trying to get him ready for last week and obviously

459
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:29,840
Speaker 1: it didn't happen. I think they are trying to get

460
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,399
Speaker 1: it just because it means a lot, you know, so

461
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 1: I think they would try to get him ready to play.

462
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 1: It's time to see who will deliver. Presented by Uber Eat.

463
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,399
Speaker 1: For those of you still playing some daily fantasy, figured

464
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:44,320
Speaker 1: we each put together a team based on the Sunday

465
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:47,000
Speaker 1: slate of games. You know, there's a two games on Saturday,

466
00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:50,320
Speaker 1: everything else. The other fourteen games on the schedule play

467
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,040
Speaker 1: on Sunday, So we figured we put something together for you.

468
00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:56,360
Speaker 1: So La Kwan put up your roster and you can

469
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:58,720
Speaker 1: sort of walk us through what you were thinking for

470
00:21:58,760 --> 00:21:59,080
Speaker 1: this one.

471
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,200
Speaker 4: Well, here's the roster. I want to highlight two key

472
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:05,479
Speaker 4: players here, man, They're they're Jaguarsh players, right, Jacoby Myers

473
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 4: and Trevor Lawrence. I want these guys leading my way

474
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 4: all the way to a solid DFS lineup where I

475
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:14,359
Speaker 4: can kind of play and take some risks with other players.

476
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:17,040
Speaker 4: Where Trevor Lawrence has been on a hot streak. We've

477
00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:19,200
Speaker 4: already known this, but I think the reason why he's

478
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:21,280
Speaker 4: been on this hot streak is because of the addition

479
00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:25,000
Speaker 4: to Jacoby Myers having such a reliable target. Trevor Lawrence

480
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,760
Speaker 4: can just outscore most of these quarterbacks that you put

481
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:30,280
Speaker 4: up there as a Josh Allens and everything else, because

482
00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:33,320
Speaker 4: since Week ten he's been the QB one in fantasy.

483
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:35,680
Speaker 4: So I think you go to his most reliable wide

484
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 4: receiver in Jacoby Myers, and you can kind of play

485
00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:40,040
Speaker 4: around with your lineup and get some of the values

486
00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:42,679
Speaker 4: in there, like a Javonte Williams. I know he's banged up,

487
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,359
Speaker 4: but hopefully he plays. And then Nico Collins, where he

488
00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:47,560
Speaker 4: could be in debate as one of the top tier

489
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 4: wide receivers this week with CJ. Stroud his up and

490
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:52,399
Speaker 4: down roller coaster. But I do believe that this is

491
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:55,040
Speaker 4: an offense that you know is going to be predicated

492
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 4: on getting Nico Collins the ball Nick Keyley. But anyway,

493
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,560
Speaker 4: looking at all these the players, man Dallas Goddard, Michael Carter,

494
00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:05,920
Speaker 4: the Denver Broncos defense man, these are all home run

495
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,240
Speaker 4: smash for me. And I know Michael carterire kind of

496
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,280
Speaker 4: side on him because he hasn't delivered in fantasy. But

497
00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:12,400
Speaker 4: this may be the week against my Rams.

498
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:16,240
Speaker 1: No worries about Dallas Goddard and the Eagles tim like

499
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:17,720
Speaker 1: shutting down their starters.

500
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:21,320
Speaker 4: At this point, I think Dallas Godders should still be

501
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:23,240
Speaker 4: on the field. I think he should still be out

502
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,560
Speaker 4: there getting the rest because he's been banked up this season,

503
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:27,840
Speaker 4: so it's not like he's earned his rest. But they're

504
00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 4: still going to go out there and at least try

505
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:31,119
Speaker 4: to win these games and stack these wins. So I

506
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,240
Speaker 4: think Dallas Gotter is still required on the field.

507
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:39,399
Speaker 1: Grant Calcaterras season coming just throwing it, I really don't, Honestly,

508
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:42,080
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't have a strong feeling about it.

509
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:44,879
Speaker 1: I just wanted to stir the pot, that's all for you.

510
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 1: I think look at your the FS lineup for Sunday

511
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:50,160
Speaker 1: to that.

512
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,720
Speaker 2: Point that you made, though, Marcus, like, I wanted the

513
00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,199
Speaker 2: crux of my lineup to be built around players that

514
00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,919
Speaker 2: either very much so had something to play for this

515
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,480
Speaker 2: week or very much so had nothing to play for

516
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:02,440
Speaker 2: this week, and you know they're going to be out

517
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:04,480
Speaker 2: there because the teams that have clinched and are going

518
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:06,119
Speaker 2: to the playoffs are the ones that you have to

519
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:09,680
Speaker 2: worry about sitting players so like Tyler Shuck, who don't

520
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:12,359
Speaker 2: look now he might win the offensive Rookie of the

521
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:15,080
Speaker 2: Year this year, and I got his wide receiver one there,

522
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 2: Chris o'lave. That is the biggest game in the NFC

523
00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:21,000
Speaker 2: South this weekend, and it's not the two teams that

524
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 2: are playing for the division. It is wild that it

525
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:25,679
Speaker 2: comes down to this, but I think those two have

526
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,560
Speaker 2: been so hot as of late, I expect it to continue.

527
00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 2: So that's how I started with Tyler Shuck, and I

528
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 2: was like, Okay, I'm getting Chris Olave in there as well.

529
00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 2: But then that allowed me to get two very high

530
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 2: priced running backs in Bijon and Devon hn In. It

531
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:45,800
Speaker 2: allowed me to get Parker Washington, who has been really hot.

532
00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 3: And then my thinking was Josh Downs.

533
00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:51,879
Speaker 2: If it is going to be Riley Leonard, we probably

534
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:55,679
Speaker 2: see him rely on the slot option underneath a good amount.

535
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,879
Speaker 2: Romeo Dobbs. I know both their quarterbacks are up in

536
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:01,159
Speaker 2: the air. I'm kind of hoping it's Malik Willis because

537
00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:04,160
Speaker 2: he has been Dobbs has been his go to guy.

538
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:07,520
Speaker 2: And then Michael Mayer is so underpriced because with Brock

539
00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:10,359
Speaker 2: Bauers out, we saw last week they are going to

540
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:13,119
Speaker 2: go to him often and he is still priced as

541
00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:15,960
Speaker 2: if brock Bauers is out there, which allows you to

542
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:18,879
Speaker 2: then get those high paid running backs in Bijon and

543
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,639
Speaker 2: a chance. So the first four names are who I

544
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:23,720
Speaker 2: started my team with and then kind of filled in

545
00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 2: the rest after that. But I wanted the two stud

546
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:29,960
Speaker 2: running backs and this was the way to ensure that

547
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:31,080
Speaker 2: I got them in my lineup.

548
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 1: I just think it's interesting because everybody sort of approaches

549
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:35,840
Speaker 1: it differently, like where do you want to spend up?

550
00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 1: Where do you want to sort of find some values,

551
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:40,720
Speaker 1: you know, do you go kind of a studs and

552
00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:43,400
Speaker 1: scrubs sort of mentality, or do you try to balance

553
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:45,480
Speaker 1: things out. I kind of went, I guess more of

554
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:48,320
Speaker 1: a balanced lineup with mine. I did know that I

555
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:51,600
Speaker 1: wanted some stacks. There were players that I absolutely wanted.

556
00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:53,159
Speaker 1: You can see that I ended up going a triple

557
00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:56,720
Speaker 1: stack with Patriots. But you know, I liked Kien Williams

558
00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:58,840
Speaker 1: and the matchup that they have this week against the

559
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:02,480
Speaker 1: Arizona Card, especially after Blake Korum got banged up and

560
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,000
Speaker 1: I don't know what his status is just yet, but

561
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:07,199
Speaker 1: I think we see a lot of Kiron Williams, especially

562
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:11,200
Speaker 1: early Tyrone Tracy Wandale Robinson in their matchup at the

563
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:14,520
Speaker 1: end of the season. I like their their opportunities coming up.

564
00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:17,160
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know that I trust CJ. Stroud.

565
00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:19,440
Speaker 1: I trust Nico Collins though, so that was worth spinning

566
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:21,640
Speaker 1: up a little bit on I do like Parker Washington

567
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:23,720
Speaker 1: kind of for the reasons Lakwan talked about with the

568
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,240
Speaker 1: Jaguars offense. If it's not going to be Jacoby Myers,

569
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:28,760
Speaker 1: Parker Washington's the next guy. I put the Browns defense

570
00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:31,520
Speaker 1: because these Steelers went out of their way to make

571
00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 1: sure Miles Garrett didn't get the sack record, even to

572
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:35,600
Speaker 1: the point that it cost them the game. I even

573
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,240
Speaker 1: love Miles Garrett saying they were more interested in preventing

574
00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:40,200
Speaker 1: me from getting the sacks than they weren't actually winning.

575
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:42,200
Speaker 1: Like I thought that was very funny because it looks

576
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:45,760
Speaker 1: sort of obvious. But that triple stack with Drake may

577
00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:50,159
Speaker 1: Hunter and Remindre Stevenson, because yes, Travon Henderson's going to

578
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:53,240
Speaker 1: get his, but we saw last week with Travion available,

579
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:55,760
Speaker 1: there were still a lot of Remandre. Now granted it

580
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,720
Speaker 1: was the Jets. Who have you been in can kun

581
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:04,560
Speaker 1: mentally probably since Halloween, hey yo. But either way, Ramantre

582
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:06,840
Speaker 1: is still getting touches. As much as we love Trevon,

583
00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:09,439
Speaker 1: the Patriots aren't going to quit him, and so to

584
00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:11,440
Speaker 1: get him in as a flex doing he can catch

585
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:14,600
Speaker 1: the football, he can run it, Drake May. The Patriots

586
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:17,440
Speaker 1: still playing potentially for a one seed or at least

587
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:20,399
Speaker 1: it's just you know, get themselves some work. I like

588
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:25,200
Speaker 1: the opportunity coming up this week against against Miami. So yeah,

589
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:26,680
Speaker 1: so that was kind of how I built that whole

590
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:30,240
Speaker 1: line up there for daily So anyway, so some suggestions

591
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:31,879
Speaker 1: for all of you out there who you want to

592
00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:34,440
Speaker 1: put a lineup or two together heading into the weekend.

593
00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:38,200
Speaker 1: That was Who Will Deliver, presented by Uber Eats, where

594
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,399
Speaker 1: you can get the best deals on game day food

595
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:43,800
Speaker 1: all season long, the official on demand delivery partner of

596
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:44,480
Speaker 1: the NFL.

597
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:44,960
Speaker 2: Order.

598
00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 1: Now time for a break, but when we come back,

599
00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 1: we'll give you our fantasy awards for the year time

600
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:58,280
Speaker 1: and to dive into some of our postseason fantasy football awards.

601
00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:00,960
Speaker 1: I got a treeoverhim right here, starting with the waiver

602
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:04,159
Speaker 1: Wire Pickup of the Year, that guy that you grabbed

603
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:06,560
Speaker 1: maybe in the first couple of weeks, maybe midseason depending

604
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 1: on how things went, that carried you as far as

605
00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:12,960
Speaker 1: they possibly could, maybe farther than you expected. LaQuan who

606
00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,520
Speaker 1: was the free agents that did the most? You think

607
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:15,960
Speaker 1: this year?

608
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,240
Speaker 4: This was a mid season pickup for me because there

609
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 4: was somebody I'd actually like stashed in those deeper leagues

610
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:23,960
Speaker 4: where I just was like, let me throw a flyer

611
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:26,200
Speaker 4: on Parker Washington. But I picked him back up in

612
00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 4: the mid season. Did you guys know since Week seven

613
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:33,080
Speaker 4: he has only had four games less than seventeen Fantasy points.

614
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:35,000
Speaker 4: He is on a hot streak right now with Trevor

615
00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:37,919
Speaker 4: Lawrence right now with back to back one hundred yard games.

616
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:40,000
Speaker 4: He is playing out of that slot and he can

617
00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:43,120
Speaker 4: also play out wide. The versatility on this Jags offense

618
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,960
Speaker 4: is a shout out to Liam kohen Man because having

619
00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:49,240
Speaker 4: Jacobe Myers and Parker Washington, these are reliable hands that

620
00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 4: Trevor Lawrence is working with. In Parker Washington me he

621
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:54,320
Speaker 4: is going to be one of those league winners if

622
00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 4: you have a Week eighteen championship, which I think you

623
00:28:56,880 --> 00:29:00,200
Speaker 4: should not be playing in. But Parker Washington has gone

624
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 4: over expectations where this guy put up one hundred yards

625
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:07,200
Speaker 4: against the Denver Broncos. Folks, I was talking about freaking

626
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,520
Speaker 4: Parker Washington in the summertime, saying he should be a

627
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:12,400
Speaker 4: late round Jim you could fact check me on that

628
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 4: at Real Deal Fantasy and went Twitter. By the way,

629
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:16,920
Speaker 4: So listen, man, Parker Washington. He has to get this

630
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,200
Speaker 4: award for waiver wire Pickup of the Year because he's

631
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:22,640
Speaker 4: definitely won. Some folks in championships are going to there's.

632
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:24,640
Speaker 1: A lot of Parker Washington talk on this show. I

633
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 1: was not anticipating this much Parker Washington talk, but uh,

634
00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 1: you know here we are, Oh, Florya, your waiver pickup

635
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 1: of the Year?

636
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:34,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, to me, it was between two players and they

637
00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:37,600
Speaker 2: both are on the same team. It was Jacoby Brissett

638
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:41,720
Speaker 2: and Michael Wilson because those two took over in the

639
00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:45,400
Speaker 2: second half, and I went with Michael Wilson because did

640
00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:47,960
Speaker 2: you like, don't look right now, he is the wide

641
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,640
Speaker 2: receiver sixteen in total points on the season. He has

642
00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:55,120
Speaker 2: more points than Cdee Lamb, Jalen Waddle, DeVonta Smith, T Higgins,

643
00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:58,400
Speaker 2: Drake London. Guys that you were building your teams around

644
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:02,680
Speaker 2: Michael Wilson was not. No one considered drafting him, and

645
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 2: if they did, he was quickly thrown back on the

646
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 2: waiver wire because the first literally first ten weeks of

647
00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:11,840
Speaker 2: the season he did not score double digit Fantasy points.

648
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:14,120
Speaker 2: But then you pick him up and from week eleven

649
00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:18,400
Speaker 2: on he was an absolute wide receiver, one who not

650
00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:23,200
Speaker 2: only put up numbers, who put up week altering numbers

651
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:25,960
Speaker 2: like have. I know a lot of people who were

652
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:29,600
Speaker 2: fighting for their playoff lives and Michael Wilson single handedly

653
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:32,760
Speaker 2: changed their season and helped get them into the playoffs.

654
00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:35,360
Speaker 2: And then I'm a big believer that what you like

655
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:37,960
Speaker 2: the end of the season matters more than early in

656
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:38,360
Speaker 2: the year.

657
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:39,680
Speaker 3: And he went, he.

658
00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:42,320
Speaker 2: Scored a touchdown in every game in the fantasy playoffs,

659
00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:46,240
Speaker 2: he went for sixteen, thirteen, and twenty Fantasy points and

660
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:49,040
Speaker 2: championship week then, so he did it when it mattered

661
00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:51,720
Speaker 2: most and he helped you get there, and then he

662
00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 2: finished the job. So for me, I'm giving all the

663
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:55,960
Speaker 2: love to Michael Wilson.

664
00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 1: I'm just saying I wasn't wrong on Michael Wilson. I

665
00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:01,440
Speaker 1: was just early, that's all. I'd liked it. I drafted

666
00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:03,160
Speaker 1: it took a couple of years, but now it's finally

667
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:06,360
Speaker 1: finally happening. Remember, to pick up of the year was

668
00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:09,720
Speaker 1: Harold fannin just because he showed out at a position

669
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:12,200
Speaker 1: that was really thin, right, I mean, you know, Trey

670
00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:14,680
Speaker 1: McBride was awesome. You look at the rest of the

671
00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 1: tight ends across the board and the list of top

672
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 1: five tight ends, it's not a group of guys that

673
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 1: you're like, oh, yeah, this dude was really a top

674
00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:24,480
Speaker 1: five player at his position all year long. It's just

675
00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:28,240
Speaker 1: that everybody else just had major issues along the way, right,

676
00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:30,120
Speaker 1: Kyle Piss, Yeah, he got hot at the end of

677
00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:31,720
Speaker 1: the year. The early part of the year wasn't really

678
00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:34,959
Speaker 1: anything special. Travis Kelce looked like a shadow of himself.

679
00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 1: Jake Ferguson started hot and then was on a milk

680
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:39,480
Speaker 1: cart and for the back half of the season. And

681
00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:41,479
Speaker 1: you know fann And yes, he was a guy that

682
00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:43,440
Speaker 1: came on sort of mid to late in the year,

683
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,400
Speaker 1: but he gave you something. Again, if you were a

684
00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:48,520
Speaker 1: person that was streaming or you had another guy that

685
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:52,000
Speaker 1: just sort of let you down, Harold Fanning, he held

686
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,400
Speaker 1: you in check. He held you down for the last

687
00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:56,520
Speaker 1: half of the season. So for that that to me

688
00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:00,560
Speaker 1: makes him the waiver wire pickup of the year. That's

689
00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 1: a good thing. The Fantasy bust of the year not

690
00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 1: a good thing. Luquan who who was the biggest disappointment

691
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:08,160
Speaker 1: to you this season?

692
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:11,440
Speaker 4: This feels like a victory lab show for me, man,

693
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:13,520
Speaker 4: because I'm just gonna sit here in Grinnin when I

694
00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:16,560
Speaker 4: say the Ladd McConkey, because we were all debating this

695
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:19,680
Speaker 4: summer what he was. Is he a wide receiver one?

696
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:23,080
Speaker 4: Is he worth to be your first wide receiver off

697
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:26,760
Speaker 4: the board? No, he was not. Ladd has not shown

698
00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:30,480
Speaker 4: up in a long time. What happened in the Fantasy playoffs.

699
00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:32,840
Speaker 4: He's let you down. And I don't even think folks

700
00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:35,280
Speaker 4: who made it to the Fantasy Playoffs even had Lad

701
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 4: mcconkeye on their roster. My boy finished as wide receiver

702
00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,880
Speaker 4: thirty six. We're looking at Greg Roman's offense where he's

703
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 4: never had a wide receiver crack inside the top fifteen.

704
00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:48,280
Speaker 4: So this whole mirage, this whole Fantasy street hype scene

705
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:50,280
Speaker 4: for Lad McConkie. I'm just gonna sit here and take

706
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:52,640
Speaker 4: my flowers again, fellas I know, just say it.

707
00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 1: I was right, say, guys waiting, you're really happy over

708
00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:58,680
Speaker 1: someone's failure.

709
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:00,960
Speaker 3: We all could have just made guys that we talked

710
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:01,800
Speaker 3: about of this summer.

711
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:05,640
Speaker 4: I was I was banging the table for this because

712
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:07,400
Speaker 4: I'm like, you guys are gonna get set up. You

713
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 4: guys are gonna get set up. The fantasy streets are talking.

714
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:12,840
Speaker 3: He was the wide receiver twenty six in total points.

715
00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:16,920
Speaker 1: Though you're shooting for hater of the year boom You've

716
00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:21,960
Speaker 1: drafted in the second round boom bo the biggest PU year.

717
00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:23,120
Speaker 3: Yes he is.

718
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:25,040
Speaker 4: He was the biggest hype of the year.

719
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:27,120
Speaker 1: I don't know about that either, nocause this.

720
00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 2: Player, this player went ahead of him in drafts and

721
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:34,920
Speaker 2: finished eighteen spots behind him, like lad McConkie had a

722
00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:36,600
Speaker 2: stretch in the middle of the year where he was

723
00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:39,760
Speaker 2: winning people leagues like he he was a wide receiver

724
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:41,800
Speaker 2: one for like a six week stretch. I know it

725
00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:43,880
Speaker 2: didn't live up to what you paid the price for him,

726
00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:46,280
Speaker 2: But you know who is never a wide receiver one

727
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:49,480
Speaker 2: at any point this season Brian Thomas Junior, And you

728
00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:52,280
Speaker 2: paid a wide receiver one price for him. He has

729
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:55,720
Speaker 2: two games this year with over twelve fantasy points. He

730
00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:59,440
Speaker 2: cracked twenty fantasy points once and he was a first

731
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:02,400
Speaker 2: round pick. If he did it go on the first round,

732
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:04,360
Speaker 2: he was going to the top two or three picks

733
00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:05,520
Speaker 2: in the second round.

734
00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 3: I had him on no teams.

735
00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:10,640
Speaker 2: I was very adamantly like, not really in on Brian

736
00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:15,000
Speaker 2: Thomas Junior. But at no point, even when he goes

737
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:18,000
Speaker 2: on IR in the middle of the year, comes back, Nope,

738
00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:20,319
Speaker 2: you can't use him then. Like he had one game

739
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:22,200
Speaker 2: where they threw him four go roundes and he caught

740
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:25,240
Speaker 2: a touchdown and scored seventeen Fantasy points. Outside of that game,

741
00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:29,040
Speaker 2: in the final thirteen weeks, he was not usable at all.

742
00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:33,640
Speaker 2: So I do think Brian Thomas Junior crushed Fantasy teams

743
00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:34,240
Speaker 2: more than anyone.

744
00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:36,720
Speaker 4: Can I say something a little pick behind the curtain,

745
00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:39,240
Speaker 4: you got to the dock before me, because that's exactly

746
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:41,440
Speaker 4: who I was gonna put Brian Thomas year, Because I

747
00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:44,200
Speaker 4: gotta be honest, I was in Look, we were on

748
00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:46,759
Speaker 4: the same page this pod with Brian Thomas Junior and

749
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:49,600
Speaker 4: questioning his production because we only seen him hit that

750
00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:52,480
Speaker 4: nineteen Fantasy points per game with Matt Jones. I was

751
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,359
Speaker 4: already on the campaign of T mid but I would

752
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:57,080
Speaker 4: say this, you got to the doc before me. But

753
00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,120
Speaker 4: I will agree this was the biggest bus.

754
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:01,040
Speaker 1: Of the year. See, the biggest bus of the year

755
00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:06,759
Speaker 1: was mine because I got to the doc first, because look,

756
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:08,360
Speaker 1: if I didn't have it, somebody else is going to

757
00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:12,080
Speaker 1: have it right Justin Jefferson, And look, it's not his fault.

758
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:15,080
Speaker 1: It was not his fault. The quarterback situation was an

759
00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:19,120
Speaker 1: absolute disaster, whether it was JJ McCarthy Carson Wentz. I

760
00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:21,160
Speaker 1: mean he was actually better with Carson Wentz, but he

761
00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:24,359
Speaker 1: still wasn't great. And I guess the most frustrating part

762
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:27,080
Speaker 1: was they were trying to get him the ball right.

763
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:30,200
Speaker 1: He wasn't like those down AJ Brown weeks where they

764
00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:32,279
Speaker 1: just weren't even throwing it in his direction. They were

765
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:34,680
Speaker 1: trying to get the ball to Justin Jefferson. And for

766
00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:37,720
Speaker 1: whatever reason, JJ McCarthy could hit every other pass catcher

767
00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:40,759
Speaker 1: in the offense, but he couldn't get the ball to Jefferson.

768
00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:43,239
Speaker 1: I don't understand it. It's the most head scratching thing.

769
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:46,040
Speaker 1: I think he rebounds next year just because if you

770
00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:49,640
Speaker 1: are Kevin O'Connell and the Vikings, job number one is

771
00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:52,080
Speaker 1: to figure out your quarterback situation. Job number one A

772
00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:55,000
Speaker 1: is to figure out how to get eighteen involved again.

773
00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:56,719
Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, this is the guy that you

774
00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,600
Speaker 1: were drafting in the early part of the first round,

775
00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:04,319
Speaker 1: maybe even number one overall, and he did not live

776
00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:07,640
Speaker 1: up to that by any stretch. But again not his fault,

777
00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:09,319
Speaker 1: and I think the Vikings go out of their way

778
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:12,360
Speaker 1: to try to fix that in the off season. Quickly,

779
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 1: Fantasy Surprise of the Year Lakwan. Who surprised you this season?

780
00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:18,920
Speaker 4: Ricco'daudo. I mean he was a backup running back. I

781
00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:21,080
Speaker 4: think we kind of took him for granted in a

782
00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:23,560
Speaker 4: sense of where we kind of ignored his production when

783
00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:25,640
Speaker 4: he was a cowboy, So I would say it was

784
00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:28,120
Speaker 4: a surprise and the fact that he was undrafted, Like,

785
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:31,400
Speaker 4: I don't know anybody that left draft day with Rico Dado.

786
00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:33,040
Speaker 4: I think a lot of people were on the Chewba

787
00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:35,480
Speaker 4: hubber bus based on the production that he left us

788
00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:37,480
Speaker 4: with last season, because true, ho was a high end

789
00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:40,920
Speaker 4: RB two at times, but Rico coming in setting rerecords,

790
00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:43,640
Speaker 4: putting up two hundred yards over scrimmage, Like, this guy

791
00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:45,920
Speaker 4: was just hitting the ground running. Once you grabbed them

792
00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:47,680
Speaker 4: off the waiver want and started putting them into the

793
00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:50,480
Speaker 4: starting lineups, like, I'm kind of going to ignore the

794
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:52,440
Speaker 4: back end of the season where the Panthers run game

795
00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:55,200
Speaker 4: completely fell off off a cliff. But Rico won me

796
00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:57,320
Speaker 4: some weeks man when he came in as my flex.

797
00:36:57,320 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 4: So it's like one of those things where like, hey,

798
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:01,920
Speaker 4: Rico bald out and I appreciate all of the services

799
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:03,560
Speaker 4: he gave to my fantasy rosters.

800
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:09,279
Speaker 2: All right, Florida, who you got Kenneth Gainwell? Who was

801
00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:11,520
Speaker 2: not even the Steelers RB two that we were drafting

802
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:16,960
Speaker 2: this summer, That was Caleb Johnson. All Kenneth Gamewell has

803
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:19,960
Speaker 2: done he had nine right now currently has nine hundred

804
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:22,480
Speaker 2: and forty nine yards. He had never had five hundred

805
00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:25,359
Speaker 2: and fifty scrimmage yards in a season prior to this.

806
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:28,240
Speaker 2: He has seven touchdowns this year. That is his last

807
00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:31,760
Speaker 2: three year touchdown total combined. Like, this was a guy

808
00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:36,600
Speaker 2: who was a complete afterthought in Philly, especially last year,

809
00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:39,800
Speaker 2: Like barely even saw the field with Saquon doing everything

810
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:43,200
Speaker 2: that he was doing. This is a guy who like

811
00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:46,120
Speaker 2: he has never had two hundred receiving yards in a season,

812
00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:48,720
Speaker 2: he has never ran for four hundred yards in a season,

813
00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:52,960
Speaker 2: and he became super fantasy relevant down the stretch to

814
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:55,040
Speaker 2: the point where, like I wrote him up as a

815
00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:57,960
Speaker 2: start in Championship Week with the biggest game on the line.

816
00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:00,920
Speaker 2: And so I think Kenneth Gainwell came out of nowhere

817
00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:03,440
Speaker 2: and really made a nice name for himself in fantasy.

818
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:06,839
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go George Pickens, who when he came over

819
00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:09,120
Speaker 1: from Pittsburgh to Dallas, I thought it was just going

820
00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:10,600
Speaker 1: to kind of be a lateral move and that he

821
00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:13,000
Speaker 1: would be the same George Pickens that he always was,

822
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:15,520
Speaker 1: which is not bad. I mean, a solid wide receiver too,

823
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:19,800
Speaker 1: but I kind of figured, Okay, he would get fewer targets,

824
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,399
Speaker 1: but they'd be more quality targets and everything would even out. Now,

825
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:24,520
Speaker 1: some of this had to do with Cede Lamb being hurt,

826
00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:26,480
Speaker 1: some of it just had to do with he just

827
00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:29,360
Speaker 1: found himself in a good offense with a quality quarterback

828
00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:32,920
Speaker 1: and that was committed to throwing the football consistently. And

829
00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:35,280
Speaker 1: the fact that we got to the end of the

830
00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:38,440
Speaker 1: fantasy season and George Pickens was a top five wide receiver.

831
00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:41,719
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody saw that coming. And so if

832
00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:44,120
Speaker 1: you spent kind of a mid round pick on him,

833
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:47,480
Speaker 1: you were feeling great because then ideally, if your first

834
00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:50,680
Speaker 1: wide receiver lived up to expectations, you had two wide

835
00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:53,959
Speaker 1: receiver ones on your roster. So shout out to George

836
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:57,000
Speaker 1: Pickens for finding himself a home and minimizing the crashouts.

837
00:38:57,040 --> 00:38:58,600
Speaker 1: Because you know there are two wolves that live inside

838
00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:00,239
Speaker 1: of George Pickens, you never know which one going to

839
00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:03,360
Speaker 1: show up on any given week. The chaos wolf, for

840
00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:05,520
Speaker 1: the most part, was kept in check. So shout out

841
00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:08,160
Speaker 1: to him for that. This year. I know it's not

842
00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:10,120
Speaker 1: in a lot of news this time of year, but

843
00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:13,799
Speaker 1: I did want to get into some fantasy headlines just

844
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:15,839
Speaker 1: briefly as we kind of dive it into a couple

845
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:18,200
Speaker 1: of things that it's kind of spinning forward to next year.

846
00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:20,440
Speaker 1: People behind the curtain. I just go to NFL dot

847
00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:22,560
Speaker 1: com slash News. I pull the headline from what I

848
00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:24,239
Speaker 1: think is important that we want to talk about. This

849
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:27,160
Speaker 1: is not a shot at anybody on this show. I swear,

850
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:30,640
Speaker 1: I promise, I promise it was not. It was not.

851
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:34,280
Speaker 1: I seriously, Jean Robinson had a great game on Monday.

852
00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:36,480
Speaker 1: I mean, the fact that it's going to tweak Lakwan

853
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:39,680
Speaker 1: doesn't hurt, but that was not the initial intempt. That's

854
00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:44,719
Speaker 1: not the point love this, I mean, yeah, yeah, Jean

855
00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:47,520
Speaker 1: had that great game on Monday night against the Rams.

856
00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:52,120
Speaker 1: Raheem Morris reminded us at halftime that he thinks Bijon

857
00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:55,640
Speaker 1: is the best player in all of the NFL. So, Flora,

858
00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:58,720
Speaker 1: I will ask you this, does this mean that Bejon Robinson?

859
00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:01,640
Speaker 1: Is he the understry number one pick in Fantasy next year?

860
00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:04,440
Speaker 2: I think he should be the one dot one, But

861
00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:08,560
Speaker 2: I do think he has competition. Look, there's always gonna

862
00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:10,440
Speaker 2: be people out there who like to take wide receivers,

863
00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:13,000
Speaker 2: and I think Pooka Nakua is very much so. In

864
00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:16,399
Speaker 2: that one oh one conversation, I also think the other

865
00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:21,040
Speaker 2: running back that Bijon will always be tied to Ejamier Gibbs.

866
00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:23,319
Speaker 2: The off season is gonna decide it, right because Tyler

867
00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:25,000
Speaker 2: ELL's year is a free agent. As long as he's

868
00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:27,759
Speaker 2: not back, maybe we get more touchdowns for Bijon. But

869
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:30,720
Speaker 2: do the Lions go out and repair that O line,

870
00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:33,880
Speaker 2: which the interior was complete nightmare for them down the stretch.

871
00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:36,960
Speaker 2: Uh So that'll kind of dictate it a little bit.

872
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:39,560
Speaker 2: But I do think to me that those two and

873
00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:42,799
Speaker 2: Pooka I think should all be the first three, and

874
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:43,760
Speaker 2: that is the.

875
00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:45,239
Speaker 3: Competition for one dot oh one.

876
00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:47,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I think that's I think that's accurate.

877
00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:50,279
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a fun conversation. And I do like

878
00:40:50,640 --> 00:40:52,759
Speaker 1: that it seems like they are multiple names, because I

879
00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:54,879
Speaker 1: don't love it when we just settle on a name

880
00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:57,680
Speaker 1: in like February and then that's the guy. Then that

881
00:40:57,680 --> 00:40:58,960
Speaker 1: that conversation kind of stinks.

882
00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:01,680
Speaker 4: I think we need forgetting one person. I mean, it's

883
00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:05,200
Speaker 4: probably my biggest miss this season. It's probably Christian McCaffrey

884
00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:08,480
Speaker 4: because I forgot he's made in the lab. So I

885
00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:11,239
Speaker 4: really think that next year he's gonna be in conversation

886
00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:12,160
Speaker 4: again in one on one.

887
00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:14,160
Speaker 1: I mean, he was in the conversation. I don't I

888
00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:16,399
Speaker 1: wouldn't spend the number one pick on McCaffrey. I love him,

889
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:16,959
Speaker 1: think he's great.

890
00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 4: You know how the fantasy streets work out.

891
00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:20,960
Speaker 1: He's a future Hall of Famer, and I think he

892
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:22,840
Speaker 1: should be in the conversation for MVP this year, But

893
00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:24,640
Speaker 1: I don't think he's the number one pick next year.

894
00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:27,240
Speaker 2: Someone asked me, and I was like, he's got four

895
00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:32,520
Speaker 2: hundred touches already and that's not including the next week plus, so.

896
00:41:32,719 --> 00:41:34,440
Speaker 3: He might be at five hundred touches come the end

897
00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:34,839
Speaker 3: of the year.

898
00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:38,160
Speaker 4: Now just a week, just two weeks, don't put them

899
00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:39,279
Speaker 4: further into No.

900
00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:40,560
Speaker 1: Now, when they get the one seed and they have

901
00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:42,839
Speaker 1: a week off, that's it. That's that's all. There is

902
00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:45,040
Speaker 1: time for a break. But will we come back? Will

903
00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:47,160
Speaker 1: give you our way too early. Mock draft for twenty

904
00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:54,520
Speaker 1: twenty six the list of modern era players who were

905
00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:56,440
Speaker 1: finalists for the Hall of Fame class but twenty twenty

906
00:41:56,440 --> 00:42:00,280
Speaker 1: six were announced. Fifteen players overall are in this grip.

907
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:04,360
Speaker 1: There are several names that are on the offensive side

908
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:06,640
Speaker 1: that I would like to figure out. Who's a Fantasy

909
00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:09,600
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer? Right? So I listed these names from

910
00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:12,560
Speaker 1: what I think is the least controversial Fantasy Hall of

911
00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:16,160
Speaker 1: Famer to most controversial. Right, So just a quick yes

912
00:42:16,239 --> 00:42:21,200
Speaker 1: or no, guys. Larry Fitzgerald Fantasy Hall of Famer. Yes, yes, yes,

913
00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:28,400
Speaker 1: Drew Brees, Yes, yes, you got to hesitate? What Fantasy

914
00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:28,960
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer?

915
00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:31,359
Speaker 2: Yes, Drew Brees is one of the best to ever

916
00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:36,279
Speaker 2: do it for fantasy Relax, I said, yes, you hesitated,

917
00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:37,000
Speaker 2: it was just weird.

918
00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:37,520
Speaker 1: I don't know.

919
00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:43,799
Speaker 4: Tory Holt No, absolutely, real life and in fantasy two

920
00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:44,720
Speaker 4: thousand and three season.

921
00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:46,400
Speaker 3: There goes to clip there it is.

922
00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:48,960
Speaker 1: That's a season. I think he's definitely a fantasy Hall

923
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:51,160
Speaker 1: of Famer. Would I wouldn't be upset with him in

924
00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:53,759
Speaker 1: the real Hall of Fame, but fantasy for sure. Oh usually, well,

925
00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:55,640
Speaker 1: you were just you were just poking the bear. I

926
00:42:55,680 --> 00:43:01,520
Speaker 1: get it, My bad, I miss that. Reggie Wayne as

927
00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:03,840
Speaker 1: a Fantasy Hall of Famer, I think yes.

928
00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:04,719
Speaker 3: I think so.

929
00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:07,360
Speaker 4: I will say this. I know he is a great player,

930
00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:09,600
Speaker 4: but I was not playing fantasy when he was active

931
00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:13,600
Speaker 4: in the league, so I can't honestly say he's done anything.

932
00:43:13,640 --> 00:43:20,800
Speaker 1: So sure, Okay, that's fair. Eli Manning as a Fantasy

933
00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:24,719
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer. Nope, no, no, Yeah, I don't think

934
00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:25,200
Speaker 1: so either.

935
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:28,359
Speaker 3: He was never taken top five quarterback, like.

936
00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:31,320
Speaker 1: He was kind of a mid fantasy quarterback. Yeah, no,

937
00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:33,880
Speaker 1: I think that's a note. Jason Witten as a Fantasy

938
00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:36,319
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer, I think undoubtedly.

939
00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:37,239
Speaker 2: I think so.

940
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:39,799
Speaker 4: I think so because he was always like a top

941
00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:41,319
Speaker 4: three tight end off the board. Yeah.

942
00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:42,640
Speaker 1: I mean, I guess, if I really think about it,

943
00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:45,080
Speaker 1: I guess I go back. I guess I'm so clouded

944
00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:46,680
Speaker 1: by the end of his career where he just caught

945
00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:48,520
Speaker 1: the ball and fell down. I'm like, what, But then

946
00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:51,920
Speaker 1: I guess if you just if you look at his prime,

947
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:54,800
Speaker 1: then yeah, I guess we can make a strong case.

948
00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:57,880
Speaker 4: It's always how is he open? How is he always open?

949
00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:00,680
Speaker 1: And it's because they had Michael Irvin and like Alvin

950
00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:02,440
Speaker 1: Harper and these guys on the outside.

951
00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:05,359
Speaker 2: That's how even at the end of his run where

952
00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:07,600
Speaker 2: he was just falling down, he was still a tight

953
00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:10,080
Speaker 2: end one like it wasn't to watch.

954
00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:14,359
Speaker 1: Also, I mean, let me rephrase, it was not Michael Irvin.

955
00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:18,080
Speaker 1: It was like Dez Bryant in those guys.

956
00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:20,480
Speaker 3: So, yeah, that's who it was him and Dez.

957
00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:23,640
Speaker 1: Moren, Dez Moreen Dez Yeah. So let me let me

958
00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:27,120
Speaker 1: get that straight. Frank Gore is a fantasy Hall of Famer.

959
00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:32,200
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say no. As a fan, I think he's

960
00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:33,839
Speaker 1: a real Hall of Famer. But I don't think he's

961
00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:36,319
Speaker 1: a fantasy Hall of Famer. He's a flex Hall of

962
00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:40,080
Speaker 1: Famer because I kind of remember him. Man, I don't

963
00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:40,680
Speaker 1: think so. No.

964
00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:45,080
Speaker 2: I think he's getting Jason Witten here.

965
00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:47,880
Speaker 3: I think the end of his run is is he

966
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:49,520
Speaker 3: was like an RB one for a while.

967
00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:53,640
Speaker 1: I guess. I mean, I think he's a real life

968
00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:56,840
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer just because of the longevity of his career,

969
00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:59,520
Speaker 1: like after running back position, because you just don't see

970
00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:03,640
Speaker 1: that anymore. Or I'm looking. Yeah, maybe he's a fantasy.

971
00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:05,520
Speaker 1: He's a borderline fantasy Hall of Famer.

972
00:45:05,680 --> 00:45:08,719
Speaker 3: If any running back Copolla, Philip Rivers, it's Frank Gore.

973
00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:13,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's fair. Yeah, I'm pretty sure. I'm pretty sure

974
00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:16,239
Speaker 1: this person listen is Frank Gore Junior is actually just

975
00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:17,080
Speaker 1: Frank Gore.

976
00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:21,120
Speaker 3: But you know they look identical, just much smaller.

977
00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:24,919
Speaker 1: Adam vinit Arry and I put it in there because

978
00:45:24,920 --> 00:45:26,719
Speaker 1: people want to get rid of kickers, but Adam vinit

979
00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:28,840
Speaker 1: Terry was money.

980
00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:32,640
Speaker 2: Get him out of here. I don't want kickers in

981
00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:33,440
Speaker 2: the Hall of Fame.

982
00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:36,799
Speaker 1: We already have them. They exist in real life. Why

983
00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:38,879
Speaker 1: can't they be in the Hall of Faame. I don't

984
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:41,719
Speaker 1: want them like we have Hall of Fame kickers.

985
00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:44,600
Speaker 2: Is there any kicker in the real life Hall of Fame?

986
00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:48,919
Speaker 1: Yes, Morten Anderson, Jon Stineroo, George Blanda lou Groza. There's

987
00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:51,960
Speaker 1: a handful of kickers in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

988
00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:55,320
Speaker 1: Like Morten Anderson was money, for decades.

989
00:45:55,880 --> 00:45:59,040
Speaker 2: Is any kicker active or in the last few years

990
00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:00,160
Speaker 2: going to make the Hall of Fame?

991
00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:04,160
Speaker 3: Probably not. Nitarry should make the real life Hall of Fame.

992
00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:06,920
Speaker 1: Justin Tucker will make the Hall of Fame, should he?

993
00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:10,680
Speaker 1: I'm not talking about what he did off the field,

994
00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:14,480
Speaker 1: but if we're talking just on the field accomplishments, Yes,

995
00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:15,920
Speaker 1: Justin Tucker is a Hall of Famer.

996
00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:18,960
Speaker 3: Brandon Aubrey might be one if he keeps this up.

997
00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:22,680
Speaker 1: I mean, Brandon Aubrey could be by the time it's

998
00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:23,399
Speaker 1: all said and done.

999
00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:25,640
Speaker 4: Greg the leg Greg zurryline.

1000
00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:27,920
Speaker 1: Put him in there. His run was too short.

1001
00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:31,200
Speaker 2: I do think Minitari in real life, real life should

1002
00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:31,520
Speaker 2: make it.

1003
00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:34,480
Speaker 1: He's getting in in real life. I think he's a

1004
00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:37,840
Speaker 1: fantasy Hall of Famer two. I'm just saying anyway. I

1005
00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:42,640
Speaker 1: wanted to do a mock draft quickly for twenty twenty six,

1006
00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:45,440
Speaker 1: well through twelve teams, so that means we used to

1007
00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:48,480
Speaker 1: get four picks. I was gonna come up with a

1008
00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:50,880
Speaker 1: random order, but I'm too lazy to do that. So lakwan,

1009
00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:53,000
Speaker 1: you get the number one pick and we'll kind of

1010
00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:54,320
Speaker 1: go around the horn from there all the way to

1011
00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:56,439
Speaker 1: number twelve. So who's number one for you?

1012
00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:57,400
Speaker 3: Pook In Nikola.

1013
00:46:57,600 --> 00:46:59,160
Speaker 4: I'm gonna go Pooking the cool because he was my

1014
00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:00,440
Speaker 4: number one pick summer.

1015
00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:03,799
Speaker 1: So let's go all right, Uh Floria, who's at number two?

1016
00:47:03,960 --> 00:47:06,880
Speaker 2: I'll go bij On then. I don't think there's a

1017
00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:08,799
Speaker 2: wrong answer at one. But if I can get bije On,

1018
00:47:09,080 --> 00:47:09,840
Speaker 2: I'm loving.

1019
00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:12,720
Speaker 1: It all right. Then that gives me a nice Jremior

1020
00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:15,520
Speaker 1: Gibbs at three, I will do that all day long,

1021
00:47:16,719 --> 00:47:19,000
Speaker 1: all right, so I would we're not doing a regular snake.

1022
00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:20,719
Speaker 1: We're just gonna go back around the horn. So look

1023
00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:21,920
Speaker 1: on you get number four.

1024
00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:24,520
Speaker 4: Give me the whiner, give me see him. See he's

1025
00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:26,440
Speaker 4: made in the lab. I've already spoken about it. He

1026
00:47:26,480 --> 00:47:27,919
Speaker 4: could be considered one on one.

1027
00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:30,320
Speaker 1: Why you gotta sound so upset about it.

1028
00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:32,880
Speaker 4: Like because I don't like rostering. I almost want a

1029
00:47:32,960 --> 00:47:35,239
Speaker 4: championship with rock Turty first of all. And you guys

1030
00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:37,640
Speaker 4: know how painful that was putting in the starting lineup.

1031
00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:39,799
Speaker 1: But go ahead. I mean, you don't have to do

1032
00:47:39,880 --> 00:47:41,680
Speaker 1: this too. You can make fantasy fun and not have

1033
00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:43,600
Speaker 1: to do this to yourself, like you you don't have

1034
00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:45,759
Speaker 1: to be so mean to yourself, like make make your

1035
00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:48,440
Speaker 1: life enjoyable. This is why you're crashing out all the time,

1036
00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:51,839
Speaker 1: because you make you put yourself in positions to crash out. Like,

1037
00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:56,080
Speaker 1: stop doing that, all right, Florida. Who's number five?

1038
00:47:56,120 --> 00:47:58,520
Speaker 2: For Remember this time a year ago where Marcus was like,

1039
00:47:58,520 --> 00:47:59,880
Speaker 2: I'm not drafting Saquon.

1040
00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:01,920
Speaker 3: That's me with Christian McCaffrey.

1041
00:48:01,960 --> 00:48:02,279
Speaker 1: I'm not.

1042
00:48:02,640 --> 00:48:04,440
Speaker 3: Look, he was awesome. I'm not drafting him.

1043
00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:07,680
Speaker 2: Next year, I though, will take Jamar Chase and pray

1044
00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:10,920
Speaker 2: that Joe Burrow stays healthy because if Burrow's healthy for

1045
00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:12,200
Speaker 2: a full year, Chase.

1046
00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:14,680
Speaker 3: Might be the one dot one in twenty twenty seven.

1047
00:48:16,080 --> 00:48:19,320
Speaker 1: Oh all right, So I got options here at this point.

1048
00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:25,760
Speaker 1: You know what, I I'm gonna go Jonathan Taylor here.

1049
00:48:26,080 --> 00:48:27,520
Speaker 1: There are a couple of names I like there, but

1050
00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:29,759
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take Jonathan Taylor was fantastic this year. I

1051
00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:31,520
Speaker 1: know he faded down the stretch, but the whole Colts

1052
00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:34,240
Speaker 1: team did. But I'll take JT at six. So, Lakwan,

1053
00:48:34,280 --> 00:48:37,480
Speaker 1: you're at seven. I would take a Monroe. I think

1054
00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:39,360
Speaker 1: that the Lions bounce back, so I think a Monra

1055
00:48:39,480 --> 00:48:42,800
Speaker 1: here just makes sense. All right, So he's at seven.

1056
00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:43,839
Speaker 1: Who you got at eight?

1057
00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:48,520
Speaker 3: Florio the maybe opoy this year. Give me JSN.

1058
00:48:49,239 --> 00:48:52,280
Speaker 2: I mean, he's doing this right now, but damn darnold,

1059
00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:54,400
Speaker 2: he's gonna have him again next year, right Like, I

1060
00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:55,680
Speaker 2: trust him.

1061
00:48:56,080 --> 00:48:59,120
Speaker 1: It's almost who I took instead of Taylor at six,

1062
00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:01,200
Speaker 1: so I was going back voice between the two of them.

1063
00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:04,719
Speaker 1: This is where it gets sort of weird. I'm gonna

1064
00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:08,040
Speaker 1: go with Devon ah Chan here at number nine. I

1065
00:49:08,200 --> 00:49:11,120
Speaker 1: like it, wow, Like I feel like he was sort

1066
00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:13,640
Speaker 1: of overlooked a little bit this past year, and even

1067
00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:15,560
Speaker 1: with the Dolphins being terrible for much of the year,

1068
00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:18,720
Speaker 1: he was still lights out. So I got him at nine.

1069
00:49:18,760 --> 00:49:21,120
Speaker 1: So back to you looking for number ten.

1070
00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:24,600
Speaker 4: This may seem like a reach, but I'm expecting a

1071
00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:27,719
Speaker 4: JSN breakout from this guy because of his second year

1072
00:49:27,800 --> 00:49:30,480
Speaker 4: quarterback and Tyler Schuck. I'm taking chrys Olave here.

1073
00:49:31,320 --> 00:49:34,319
Speaker 1: That's wow, all right, He's got from the Saxul of

1074
00:49:34,360 --> 00:49:37,680
Speaker 1: discontent to the number ten overall. Pick yeah, growth man,

1075
00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:41,200
Speaker 1: all right, all right? So then Florida, who's at eleven

1076
00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:41,480
Speaker 1: for you?

1077
00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:44,400
Speaker 2: I also love that you've come fully around on Tyler Shuck.

1078
00:49:45,239 --> 00:49:46,600
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with Ceedee Lamb here.

1079
00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:48,240
Speaker 1: I know he didn't really have the year.

1080
00:49:48,080 --> 00:49:49,760
Speaker 3: We expected, but we know he's awesome.

1081
00:49:49,760 --> 00:49:52,960
Speaker 2: George Pickens is a free agent, so yeah, Lamb is

1082
00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:55,600
Speaker 2: just super safe year in a year out.

1083
00:49:55,760 --> 00:49:57,640
Speaker 1: All right, I was you know, I thought about I

1084
00:49:57,640 --> 00:50:01,000
Speaker 1: thought about him at nine instead of I'm happy with

1085
00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:02,759
Speaker 1: aha and I So I'm going to close out the

1086
00:50:02,800 --> 00:50:07,480
Speaker 1: first round with James Cook, who when all else failed

1087
00:50:07,480 --> 00:50:10,040
Speaker 1: in Buffalo. I mean that offense was pretty much James

1088
00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:12,919
Speaker 1: Cook and Josh Allen. That was it. They paid James Cook.

1089
00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:15,759
Speaker 1: They used him like a guy that got paid and

1090
00:50:16,280 --> 00:50:19,080
Speaker 1: he was fantastic. So uh here there you go. That's

1091
00:50:19,080 --> 00:50:22,080
Speaker 1: our that's our list, early list, way too early list

1092
00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:26,640
Speaker 1: of the first round, the top twelve, particularly a few

1093
00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:30,160
Speaker 1: names of No Justin Jefferson on that list, No sa

1094
00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:35,000
Speaker 1: Quon on that list. You know, no Ashton genty after

1095
00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:37,959
Speaker 1: the overhype from the last year, that list. As well

1096
00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:40,360
Speaker 1: as we get ready to wrap somethings, they've still going

1097
00:50:40,400 --> 00:50:43,880
Speaker 1: to have more Fantasy awards, Rookie of the Year, Lakwan,

1098
00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:45,320
Speaker 1: who do you like in fantasy?

1099
00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:47,640
Speaker 4: In that one, there was a couple options, like literally

1100
00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:49,880
Speaker 4: only three options that I was really thinking about. But

1101
00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:52,880
Speaker 4: I think Cam Skataboo man if he stayed healthy, he

1102
00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:55,600
Speaker 4: probably will win this fantasy award. I mean, he was

1103
00:50:55,640 --> 00:50:58,120
Speaker 4: the RB ten and he started getting into a groove.

1104
00:50:58,160 --> 00:51:00,960
Speaker 4: We saw him put up thirty one Fantasy points against

1105
00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:04,759
Speaker 4: the Eagles. Like camp Scatabou healthy with Jackson Dart like,

1106
00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:07,000
Speaker 4: I'm kind of roing him next year as a guy

1107
00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:10,000
Speaker 4: that I could be targeting in those early rounds. I

1108
00:51:10,040 --> 00:51:12,359
Speaker 4: think if he had this full season, we'll be talking

1109
00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:14,919
Speaker 4: about camp Scataboo in a different light, maybe a top

1110
00:51:14,960 --> 00:51:16,600
Speaker 4: seven running back to finish the season.

1111
00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:20,240
Speaker 1: I'm curious where he gets drafted next year, just because

1112
00:51:20,280 --> 00:51:22,480
Speaker 1: he was so good. Obviously got hurt, missed a good

1113
00:51:22,560 --> 00:51:24,480
Speaker 1: chunk of the season. The Giants are still going to be,

1114
00:51:24,760 --> 00:51:27,680
Speaker 1: you know, not a playoff team, but I am curious

1115
00:51:27,719 --> 00:51:31,120
Speaker 1: about where he goes in drafts next year. Florio, you

1116
00:51:31,160 --> 00:51:33,520
Speaker 1: and I came to the same conclusion, who do you

1117
00:51:33,560 --> 00:51:35,120
Speaker 1: have is your fantasy rookie of the year.

1118
00:51:35,280 --> 00:51:36,479
Speaker 3: While we're taking victory laps.

1119
00:51:36,520 --> 00:51:38,319
Speaker 2: I will take one on Cam because I was saying

1120
00:51:38,360 --> 00:51:40,960
Speaker 2: he was better than Tyrone Tracy in the summer. But

1121
00:51:41,719 --> 00:51:45,520
Speaker 2: I'm going with Teterero McMillan, who oddly enough might not

1122
00:51:45,600 --> 00:51:47,960
Speaker 2: get the real life rookie of the year anymore.

1123
00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:50,000
Speaker 3: But I think if they win the division, it's hard

1124
00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:53,359
Speaker 3: to keep him out of that. But yeah, it this

1125
00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:54,520
Speaker 3: is more I think.

1126
00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:58,040
Speaker 5: An indication on this class as a whole, because like

1127
00:51:58,120 --> 00:52:01,960
Speaker 5: McMillan was good, he was great, but he was the

1128
00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:05,080
Speaker 5: best of all, Like like a Buka faded, Frabian had

1129
00:52:05,120 --> 00:52:07,560
Speaker 5: to run Scataboo was awesome, but he got hurt.

1130
00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:09,640
Speaker 2: Like he's just the one that lasted and was the

1131
00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:12,239
Speaker 2: most solid of them all. But I don't know about you, guys,

1132
00:52:12,280 --> 00:52:15,120
Speaker 2: I do think this class disappointed in its first year.

1133
00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:20,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was not a great rookie class fantasy wise.

1134
00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:23,160
Speaker 1: I had ten nicm millan too, just because he was

1135
00:52:23,200 --> 00:52:25,839
Speaker 1: the most consistent out of all those guys from week

1136
00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:29,360
Speaker 1: one till the end. It was never splashy. Part of

1137
00:52:29,400 --> 00:52:31,280
Speaker 1: it was just the offense, part of it was the quarterback,

1138
00:52:31,320 --> 00:52:34,600
Speaker 1: but just the consistency weekend and week out for McMillan

1139
00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:37,400
Speaker 1: kind of made him that For me, you know, a

1140
00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:39,959
Speaker 1: Buka had a huge start and then we just didn't

1141
00:52:39,960 --> 00:52:42,759
Speaker 1: hear from him for long stretches. None of the quarterbacks

1142
00:52:42,800 --> 00:52:46,120
Speaker 1: I think were consistent enough. I mean, Jackson Dark kind

1143
00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:48,600
Speaker 1: of had some some spike weeks Tyler Schuck kind of

1144
00:52:48,640 --> 00:52:52,480
Speaker 1: came on at the end. Cam Ward God blessed cam

1145
00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:55,520
Speaker 1: Ward Man. He fought through some real stuff down there

1146
00:52:55,920 --> 00:52:56,640
Speaker 1: in Tennessee.

1147
00:52:57,000 --> 00:52:59,120
Speaker 3: He could play, He could play.

1148
00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:02,719
Speaker 1: No, I'm curious about his development, absolutely, but in terms

1149
00:53:02,719 --> 00:53:04,279
Speaker 1: of what he gave you in fantasy just there was

1150
00:53:04,360 --> 00:53:07,080
Speaker 1: just nothing there this year. So in what was kind

1151
00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:10,760
Speaker 1: of a down fantasy year for rookies, Tech McMillan Terroid McMillan,

1152
00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:13,400
Speaker 1: because I think neither he nor his mother particularly like that.

1153
00:53:13,840 --> 00:53:17,560
Speaker 1: Terrod McMillan is the guy for me, all right. Finally,

1154
00:53:18,680 --> 00:53:23,960
Speaker 1: the most valuable player in Fantasy Lakwan is Pooka Nku.

1155
00:53:24,080 --> 00:53:26,239
Speaker 4: I'm going to Poka Nakua man. I gotta say this

1156
00:53:26,360 --> 00:53:29,719
Speaker 4: because I do feel like he was overlooked in the

1157
00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:32,719
Speaker 4: sense of where Justin Jefferson, Jamar Chase, Ced Lamb, We're

1158
00:53:32,760 --> 00:53:35,600
Speaker 4: all going before him in drafts. But there has been

1159
00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:38,520
Speaker 4: a conversation that you can start mentioning Puka in real

1160
00:53:38,560 --> 00:53:41,720
Speaker 4: life football amongst the Jamar Chases and the CD Lambs

1161
00:53:41,719 --> 00:53:44,439
Speaker 4: and Justin Jefferson. Just look at this guy, bald. There's

1162
00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:46,680
Speaker 4: not a route he can't make, There's not a catch

1163
00:53:46,719 --> 00:53:49,080
Speaker 4: he cannot make. Other than what you know we saw

1164
00:53:49,120 --> 00:53:52,000
Speaker 4: on Monday night. But I really think that Poka is

1165
00:53:52,040 --> 00:53:54,680
Speaker 4: in that s tier of wide receivers and where in

1166
00:53:54,719 --> 00:53:57,319
Speaker 4: fantasy we need to start treating him like that and

1167
00:53:57,360 --> 00:53:59,920
Speaker 4: start drafting him like that as well.

1168
00:54:00,400 --> 00:54:02,799
Speaker 1: I mean, like, let's keep it a buck, right. The

1169
00:54:02,840 --> 00:54:07,360
Speaker 1: reason he fell in drafts is because the starting quarterback

1170
00:54:07,400 --> 00:54:10,240
Speaker 1: for the Rams were shacked up in an airstream trailer

1171
00:54:10,400 --> 00:54:14,600
Speaker 1: at Loyal and Merrimount University. Like, that's why that was

1172
00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:17,479
Speaker 1: what that was. If Matthew Stafford, if we knew going

1173
00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:19,279
Speaker 1: into Week one that Matthew Stafford was all good and

1174
00:54:19,320 --> 00:54:21,520
Speaker 1: he was playing preseason, I think Puca goes higher. Maybe

1175
00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:24,360
Speaker 1: not above Chase or Jefferson or Seeding Land, but he

1176
00:54:24,400 --> 00:54:27,360
Speaker 1: goes a lot higher. It's because your quarterback needed a

1177
00:54:27,360 --> 00:54:30,520
Speaker 1: bachiotomy that we believed that we couldn't draft him because

1178
00:54:30,520 --> 00:54:32,960
Speaker 1: we thought he's gonna be catchup passes from Jimmy Garoppolo

1179
00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:35,319
Speaker 1: at the start of the season. Hey never that, first

1180
00:54:35,400 --> 00:54:35,800
Speaker 1: of all.

1181
00:54:35,920 --> 00:54:37,920
Speaker 4: And I think there was a small pocket of the

1182
00:54:37,920 --> 00:54:40,920
Speaker 4: fantasy community like saying that he was discounted because of

1183
00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:43,600
Speaker 4: DeVante Adams, of what he did to Garrett Wilson and like,

1184
00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:46,320
Speaker 4: I also took that into account as well, because I

1185
00:54:46,320 --> 00:54:48,279
Speaker 4: thought Devanta Adams was going to come in as the

1186
00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:50,319
Speaker 4: guy that's going to have more of the touchdowns, where

1187
00:54:50,360 --> 00:54:52,200
Speaker 4: Puka was just gonna have a lot of catches and

1188
00:54:52,239 --> 00:54:54,000
Speaker 4: have the yards where we were going to see a

1189
00:54:54,040 --> 00:54:56,239
Speaker 4: balance of both of them. But I think, honestly, even

1190
00:54:56,280 --> 00:54:58,880
Speaker 4: when DeVante Adams is there, it's been proving that Puka's

1191
00:54:58,880 --> 00:55:01,000
Speaker 4: the S tier type of YE receiver that we can

1192
00:55:01,080 --> 00:55:03,480
Speaker 4: have in conversation. In those first three picks.

1193
00:55:03,920 --> 00:55:06,759
Speaker 2: To be fair, though DeVante was catching all the touchdowns

1194
00:55:06,800 --> 00:55:10,040
Speaker 2: and Pooka got those after Devonte got hurt.

1195
00:55:10,080 --> 00:55:18,120
Speaker 1: He's just a touchdown vulture Adams this year, Florida your

1196
00:55:18,160 --> 00:55:19,040
Speaker 1: fantasy MVP.

1197
00:55:19,960 --> 00:55:23,399
Speaker 2: I know other players scored more Fantasy points than him,

1198
00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:25,839
Speaker 2: but I'm looking at the word value there, right, And

1199
00:55:26,440 --> 00:55:30,480
Speaker 2: no player gave you a bigger positional advantage than Trey McBride,

1200
00:55:30,560 --> 00:55:34,120
Speaker 2: who scored three hundred and two Fantasy points this year.

1201
00:55:34,400 --> 00:55:37,120
Speaker 2: No other tight end scored two hundred. One other tight

1202
00:55:37,200 --> 00:55:39,439
Speaker 2: end scored one hundred and ninety, and that was Kyle Pitt. See,

1203
00:55:39,440 --> 00:55:43,080
Speaker 2: it are over one hundred point advantage on every other

1204
00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:46,680
Speaker 2: player at his position and on top of it. Despite

1205
00:55:46,719 --> 00:55:48,360
Speaker 2: the fact that I was telling you he should have

1206
00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:50,719
Speaker 2: been the tight end one all summer long. He wasn't

1207
00:55:50,719 --> 00:55:53,880
Speaker 2: the first tight end drafted. People were taking brock Bowers

1208
00:55:54,239 --> 00:55:58,360
Speaker 2: over him. Trey McBride was falling to the third round.

1209
00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:01,279
Speaker 2: Like these other players scored more than him are all

1210
00:56:01,320 --> 00:56:02,120
Speaker 2: first round picks.

1211
00:56:02,120 --> 00:56:04,560
Speaker 3: They did what they're supposed to do. Trey McBride, though,

1212
00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:07,080
Speaker 3: gave you the biggest positional advantage and you got a

1213
00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:07,920
Speaker 3: bit of a discount.

1214
00:56:07,960 --> 00:56:10,399
Speaker 2: Like next year, he's gonna be a second round pick,

1215
00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:12,560
Speaker 2: the first tight end off the board. I wouldn't be

1216
00:56:12,600 --> 00:56:14,560
Speaker 2: surprised if people start saying he should be a first

1217
00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:17,480
Speaker 2: round pick. But I know he's not gonna win, Like

1218
00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:19,360
Speaker 2: if we put this up to a pole or anything.

1219
00:56:19,640 --> 00:56:22,640
Speaker 2: But in my opinion, I don't think any player was

1220
00:56:22,680 --> 00:56:24,719
Speaker 2: more valuable than Trey McBride.

1221
00:56:25,800 --> 00:56:27,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm already seeing Chad about him being a first

1222
00:56:27,840 --> 00:56:30,000
Speaker 1: round pick. That's that's kind of a no fly zone.

1223
00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:32,319
Speaker 1: I can't do a first first round tight end. Is

1224
00:56:32,360 --> 00:56:36,320
Speaker 1: Jacoby Brissett going to be the quarterback? That's the real question.

1225
00:56:36,560 --> 00:56:39,120
Speaker 1: That's why I'm hesitant on that. I don't agree with that.

1226
00:56:39,440 --> 00:56:41,400
Speaker 1: Probably not. It's not it's gonna be Kyler, but it's

1227
00:56:41,400 --> 00:56:44,239
Speaker 1: probably gonna be Bresett either. So it looks like the

1228
00:56:44,360 --> 00:56:48,680
Speaker 1: NFC West, the sweeping ur of Fantasy MVP voting because yeah, Pooka,

1229
00:56:48,719 --> 00:56:51,680
Speaker 1: you had Trey McBride. I got Christian McCaffrey. Because this

1230
00:56:51,800 --> 00:56:54,319
Speaker 1: is a guy that early on in draft season was

1231
00:56:54,360 --> 00:56:56,360
Speaker 1: falling to like the middle to late part of the

1232
00:56:56,440 --> 00:57:00,279
Speaker 1: second round. And I mean, on some levels, I saw, God,

1233
00:57:00,320 --> 00:57:02,960
Speaker 1: everybody's worried about the injuries. But you know this, Floya,

1234
00:57:02,960 --> 00:57:04,400
Speaker 1: I know you like to say this your injury pronounce

1235
00:57:04,520 --> 00:57:07,000
Speaker 1: you're not this year. He stayed healthy and then with

1236
00:57:07,040 --> 00:57:10,279
Speaker 1: everybody else around him getting injured, he was getting all

1237
00:57:10,360 --> 00:57:13,200
Speaker 1: of the touches there and he looked like the Christian

1238
00:57:13,280 --> 00:57:17,600
Speaker 1: McCaffrey of old. What That's what happened, right, It's not

1239
00:57:17,640 --> 00:57:22,960
Speaker 1: a news flash wow, because he stayed healthy. What do

1240
00:57:23,000 --> 00:57:25,000
Speaker 1: you want me to say he's made in the lab?

1241
00:57:25,080 --> 00:57:25,600
Speaker 4: I get it.

1242
00:57:26,640 --> 00:57:28,520
Speaker 1: I'm not saying all that. I'm just say he stayed healthy.

1243
00:57:28,560 --> 00:57:31,320
Speaker 1: Like there's no to say, you know, Captain America sort

1244
00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:33,320
Speaker 1: of thing here. He just stayed healthy. It's not the

1245
00:57:33,320 --> 00:57:35,920
Speaker 1: first time in his career that he's played the majority

1246
00:57:35,960 --> 00:57:39,520
Speaker 1: of the games, and it was fantastic. Though you know,

1247
00:57:39,640 --> 00:57:42,480
Speaker 1: on looked for a while. I mean, I guess could

1248
00:57:42,520 --> 00:57:45,200
Speaker 1: still get a thousand yards rushing and receiving. Either way.

1249
00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:48,800
Speaker 1: He is the top scoring player in all of fantasy football,

1250
00:57:48,840 --> 00:57:52,440
Speaker 1: ahead of all the quarterbacks and everybody. That to me.

1251
00:57:52,560 --> 00:57:54,280
Speaker 1: For a guy that again refused, especially if you got

1252
00:57:54,360 --> 00:57:57,120
Speaker 1: him in the late second round, you feel pretty great

1253
00:57:57,120 --> 00:58:01,680
Speaker 1: about life. So he was my MVP. All right, last

1254
00:58:01,720 --> 00:58:03,360
Speaker 1: couple of things before we get out of here. We

1255
00:58:03,360 --> 00:58:06,000
Speaker 1: appreciate you guys hanging out with us. Of course, as always,

1256
00:58:06,560 --> 00:58:09,920
Speaker 1: Harold fannin Watch comes to an end. Of course, for

1257
00:58:09,920 --> 00:58:12,720
Speaker 1: those of you who maybe are uninitiated, last year, Lakwan

1258
00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:15,160
Speaker 1: said John new Smith would finish as a top five

1259
00:58:15,240 --> 00:58:17,360
Speaker 1: tight end. If he did, he would dye his hair blonde.

1260
00:58:17,480 --> 00:58:19,760
Speaker 1: John new was a tight end four. Lakwan looked like

1261
00:58:19,800 --> 00:58:23,840
Speaker 1: Cisco for a couple of days this spring. He said

1262
00:58:23,880 --> 00:58:27,320
Speaker 1: that if Harold Fannin Junior finishes a top five tight end,

1263
00:58:27,320 --> 00:58:29,200
Speaker 1: he would go blonde again. Now, mind you, this was

1264
00:58:29,240 --> 00:58:31,800
Speaker 1: all unsolicited. We didn't pressure him into saying this. We

1265
00:58:31,840 --> 00:58:34,160
Speaker 1: didn't force him into this, We didn't trick him into it.

1266
00:58:34,360 --> 00:58:37,160
Speaker 1: He just said it up his own volition, and after

1267
00:58:37,240 --> 00:58:40,040
Speaker 1: last week, even with Fannin going out early with an injury,

1268
00:58:40,760 --> 00:58:44,200
Speaker 1: he finishes as the tight end five, one point three

1269
00:58:44,360 --> 00:58:48,240
Speaker 1: points ahead of Dallas Goddards the kwand do you have

1270
00:58:48,240 --> 00:58:49,360
Speaker 1: anything to say for yourself.

1271
00:58:50,640 --> 00:58:53,600
Speaker 4: I'm just shocked that Dallas Goddar didn't get it done.

1272
00:58:53,720 --> 00:58:56,560
Speaker 4: I mean, Fannon got injured in the first quarter, like

1273
00:58:57,040 --> 00:58:58,919
Speaker 4: he scored a touchdown and that was it all. Dallas

1274
00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:00,920
Speaker 4: Goddard had to do a little fake toush push and

1275
00:59:00,920 --> 00:59:04,440
Speaker 4: do everything they were doing before and he still scored.

1276
00:59:04,480 --> 00:59:07,120
Speaker 4: But Dallas Goddard didn't get anything else out of that game.

1277
00:59:07,280 --> 00:59:11,320
Speaker 4: And I'm just shocked at one point three points. Is

1278
00:59:11,360 --> 00:59:12,880
Speaker 4: the reason why I have to dye my hair and

1279
00:59:12,880 --> 00:59:14,160
Speaker 4: make this appointment.

1280
00:59:14,920 --> 00:59:18,400
Speaker 1: A four yard catch. We have done it for you.

1281
00:59:19,920 --> 00:59:22,800
Speaker 4: It's insane. Like my wife is sitting here, she's not

1282
00:59:22,880 --> 00:59:25,200
Speaker 4: happy about this. She is not happy that I'm going

1283
00:59:25,200 --> 00:59:27,000
Speaker 4: blonde once again. But I will wear it as a

1284
00:59:27,000 --> 00:59:30,200
Speaker 4: badge of honor because it's basically me saying, hey, I

1285
00:59:30,200 --> 00:59:32,320
Speaker 4: can trust my eyes. I know what I'm talking about

1286
00:59:32,360 --> 00:59:34,439
Speaker 4: with the tight end position. I'm gonna do it again

1287
00:59:34,440 --> 00:59:35,600
Speaker 4: next year and see what happens.

1288
00:59:35,920 --> 00:59:37,840
Speaker 1: We're gonna have a big tight end reveal next year.

1289
00:59:37,840 --> 00:59:40,640
Speaker 1: You're gonna just gonna find your tight end sleeper and

1290
00:59:40,680 --> 00:59:42,600
Speaker 1: we're just gonna gonna ride that all year. That's gonna

1291
00:59:42,600 --> 00:59:44,880
Speaker 1: be nine February. Though. That was that was wild.

1292
00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:45,520
Speaker 3: That was wild.

1293
00:59:45,560 --> 00:59:46,040
Speaker 4: I'm not doing it.

1294
00:59:46,000 --> 00:59:49,160
Speaker 1: That was crazy again. We'll have to want to set

1295
00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:51,640
Speaker 1: something up for the the dyeing of the hair. We'll

1296
00:59:51,640 --> 00:59:52,800
Speaker 1: have to make it an event. We'll put her out

1297
00:59:52,800 --> 00:59:54,439
Speaker 1: on social it's gonna be a whole lot of fun.

1298
00:59:54,560 --> 00:59:56,800
Speaker 1: So but thanks for being a good sport, because that

1299
00:59:56,840 --> 00:59:58,920
Speaker 1: was was kind of fun to play along with, especially

1300
00:59:58,960 --> 01:00:01,520
Speaker 1: once we remembered it mids that's what I remember.

1301
01:00:01,600 --> 01:00:03,640
Speaker 4: The last he remembered the John new one.

1302
01:00:03,680 --> 01:00:05,479
Speaker 1: This guy is ready to stir the pot.

1303
01:00:07,200 --> 01:00:08,120
Speaker 2: You can't blame me.

1304
01:00:09,200 --> 01:00:10,720
Speaker 3: You do this to yourself.

1305
01:00:11,560 --> 01:00:14,880
Speaker 2: I'll just make sure everyone remembers what you have done.

1306
