Speaker 1: the Fantasy Sports Radio Network for more updates at the
Speaker 1: top of every hour. Ladies and gents, this is the
Speaker 1: thank Thank Yeah, we are back. This is the BFFC
Speaker 1: Action Hour is live here from Studio thirty four. I
Speaker 1: am Greg susmen No, Frank Stanford, e y still in
Speaker 1: the house, Eric Young, what's happening? Man? Still loving tight ends?
Speaker 1: You know it's uh, it's it's a very treacherous position.
Speaker 1: It has been for years. But hopefully this is going
Speaker 1: to help some people out. I know what helps me
Speaker 1: talking about it, looking at it, talking it through, listening
Speaker 1: to what you think it's. It's a good exercise to
Speaker 1: make you sharper in your drafts and that, Uh, let's
Speaker 1: keep the conversation going, Buddy, Absolutely so. Adam Schefter just
Speaker 1: reported during the program that Ezekiel Elliott if and when
Speaker 1: he gets a new contract. I thought the wording there
Speaker 1: was very interesting. If and when he gets a new contract,
Speaker 1: he's back down to a lowest weight he's ever been at,
Speaker 1: or since his rookie season, in the low tow twenties
Speaker 1: of the one he reports the camp here be ready
Speaker 1: to rock. Maybe I'm reading a bit too much into this,
Speaker 1: Eric Boy, if and when he signs a contract. Chefter
Speaker 1: is plugged in. I'm with you, man, I know zeque
Speaker 1: Eliot's number one guy. He's not my number one, he's
Speaker 1: in my top four. I'm I feel a little bit
Speaker 1: more confident in Iszekiel excuse me about Ezekiel Elliott today? Yeah,
Speaker 1: like you said, Schefter is definitely plugged in. And this
Speaker 1: is a guy that that lives and dies by his
Speaker 1: reputation of breaking news. He's not going to break news
Speaker 1: about Ezekiel Elliott and use the words if and when,
Speaker 1: unless it's it's coming, It's coming. Jerry Jones is going
Speaker 1: to pay this guy. He knows that Zack is in
Speaker 1: his in his rookie rookie contracts. Still, this is the
Speaker 1: last year he's gonna be able to stay on that.
Speaker 1: The only time they're going to be able to probably
Speaker 1: afford both is this year. They're going to go for it.
Speaker 1: Jerry Jones is not a stupid man. He knows that, Um,
Speaker 1: they're gonna pay him. Ezekiel is gonna play and he's
Speaker 1: still my number one. Yeah, I'll read you the exact
Speaker 1: sweet while he's away. The Cowboys, Ekiel elliotts Wait is
Speaker 1: in the low two twenties lowest spenses his rookie years,
Speaker 1: per source. If and when the two sides can work
Speaker 1: out a deal, Elliott be ready to go. If and
Speaker 1: when the sides two sides can work out a deal,
Speaker 1: it's not if it's it's when Ezekiel Elliott will be totally,
Speaker 1: totally good. This also comes from the Shorlotte Observer, who
Speaker 1: have been pumping up Curtis Samuel all off season, and
Speaker 1: not surprisingly here Eric cam Newton has been able to
Speaker 1: throw the deep ball more. There's a correlation there because
Speaker 1: he has someone to throw it too, that's Curtis Samuel.
Speaker 1: This connection certainly seems real or both Cam Newton Curtis
Speaker 1: Samuel rising up your draft board. Yeah, Cam Newton is
Speaker 1: for sure. I feel like this is guy like guys
Speaker 1: like Kyler Murray and you know, we gut quarterbacks. Lamar
Speaker 1: Jackson stuff. Are being drafted in front of cam Newton,
Speaker 1: You're insane. Cam Newton has been one of the best
Speaker 1: fantasy quarterbacks in the last five years. He was running
Speaker 1: the football when these guys were still in college. He's
Speaker 1: going to continue to the run the football. He's a
Speaker 1: massive guy. Uh. They're saying that they redid his his
Speaker 1: throwing motion, which did worry me. But all the reports
Speaker 1: out of camp is that there he's looking the best
Speaker 1: he's ever looked. He will move up um for me
Speaker 1: um and for me, he's the best hybrid. He's not
Speaker 1: a guy that's great at throwing the ball, but we
Speaker 1: know he runs and he runs in the red zone
Speaker 1: and he's decent throwing. And having Samuel d. J. Moore,
Speaker 1: greg Olsen back and Kristi McCaffrey catching the ball, this
Speaker 1: is gonna be a potent offense. And Cam Newton is
Speaker 1: gonna he's gonna pay dividends big time. Absolutely, I'm all
Speaker 1: in on Cam. I've said this a lot, that he's
Speaker 1: a quarterback that I'm actively targeting here in draft. He
Speaker 1: is my number six quarterback overall. He is a type
Speaker 1: of player that can win you leagues because he doesn't
Speaker 1: do everything with that shoulder and obviously with his legs,
Speaker 1: with that bold or that big frame, he's extremely extremely helpful. Now,
Speaker 1: we talked to Don moncreeve earlier in the off season.
Speaker 1: They compared to James Washington whatnot. Now I didn't even
Speaker 1: realize this, but Don moncreave hadn't practice with the Steelers
Speaker 1: for about a week because he broke his finger. And
Speaker 1: as who James Washington was in that preseason game, this
Speaker 1: fight is really on. Maybe, as we've talked about Vance
Speaker 1: McDonald earlier, he's the one that steps up. But this
Speaker 1: Moncreave versus James Washington competition still seems to be going
Speaker 1: full of throttle. Yeah, And I think a couple of
Speaker 1: weeks ago everyone was saying, for sure it's Moncrief's job. Um.
Speaker 1: Things that I've heard is that Washington is just not
Speaker 1: a good practice player. And this has happened before. We've
Speaker 1: heard from superstar players. I think I can remember a
Speaker 1: few years back saying Steve Smith was a guy that
Speaker 1: that wasn't a good practice player, would drop balls, would
Speaker 1: not be involved, and wouldn't be going hard or as
Speaker 1: hard as we were used to it. But when those
Speaker 1: lights come on Sunday, Steves is one of, if not
Speaker 1: the most ferocious competitors in the NFL. Small guy, slight guy,
Speaker 1: but battled for the ball, caught balls over the mail, real,
Speaker 1: super tough, super resilient, could jump, could catch good run routes.
Speaker 1: He did everything. But this is the thing with Washington.
Speaker 1: Washington was draft high and we know something about Pittsburgh
Speaker 1: is Pittsburgh is good at finding wide receivers. These guys
Speaker 1: could both pay dividends. I can't remember who it was
Speaker 1: in our draft, but I think he went eight nine
Speaker 1: or nine ten and picked them both. That could be
Speaker 1: a hell of a move at that level. Yeah, it
Speaker 1: was Day Martinez spitting speed. Yeah, host the friend Fantasy Freestyle.
Speaker 1: You can check that out later tonight, seven pms from
Speaker 1: time right here on fcs Y. And he wasn't sure
Speaker 1: which one he wanted, so he took both. And even
Speaker 1: if they don't both work out, it's eight nine, as
Speaker 1: you said, Eric, and he's like, hey, why not, I'm
Speaker 1: guaranteed the second wide receiver. I'm not messing around. And
Speaker 1: we spoke earlier this week would you do that with
Speaker 1: Green Bay with Geronimo Allison and Marquez Valdez Scanty. I said,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't do that, but as you said, it could
Speaker 1: ultimately a major major dividends if the second wide receiver
Speaker 1: of Pittsburgh has this season that many believe he ultimately could.
Speaker 1: We'll see what happens there in that situation with those
Speaker 1: wide receivers. Now, I speaking wide receivers, I gotta be
Speaker 1: of Odell Beckham who has his hip injury and he's
Speaker 1: probably not gonna play in the second preseason game. And
Speaker 1: I get it. It's fine. You want your guys. Doesn't
Speaker 1: always feel like Odell is just always nicked up. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, this is something that he's he This has
Speaker 1: been part of owning Odell Beckham is you're going to
Speaker 1: deal with this. Part of that, I think is he's
Speaker 1: He's just he's a soft player. He gets hurt, and
Speaker 1: when he's hurt, he tells people. He lets everybody know
Speaker 1: around him. UM, and he has played her. I'm not
Speaker 1: saying that that he's weak or or he's not a competitor.
Speaker 1: When he's on the field, he's a competitor. But the
Speaker 1: reality is his injuries hinder this guy. He's always hurt.
Speaker 1: There always seems to be something wrong. I know I've
Speaker 1: owned him before in the past, and every week you're
Speaker 1: wondering is he gonna play, is he gonna start? Is
Speaker 1: is he going to play even for the rest of
Speaker 1: the year. So this, I mean doesn't surprise me. He's
Speaker 1: a veteran UM. You know, they're probably just they're always
Speaker 1: gonna go on the side of caution and keep him
Speaker 1: out preseason is not that important. Um, I'm still I'm
Speaker 1: not going to move him anywhere, but this is something
Speaker 1: to watch and you're just going to deal with us
Speaker 1: all year with Odell Beckham. This is who he is.
Speaker 1: Not ultimately moving him anywhere drastically. But for me, like
Speaker 1: I have Odell and Tyreekhill back to back, and I
Speaker 1: know frank and and Florio have Tyreek Hill once but
Speaker 1: higher than Odell Beckham. I get it. I get it.
Speaker 1: Maybe that's the only thing I would do, like you said,
Speaker 1: certainly not doing anything drastic. Do you want? We appreciate
Speaker 1: it is always a man. Thank you so much. Appreciate it.
Speaker 1: Talk to you and the whimsical Brian Kendrick tomorrow. I
Speaker 1: can't wait for this. Yeah, it's give me an auction
Speaker 1: draft show. I'm excited to hear what's going all his
Speaker 1: auctions and see what's going on. All right, So let's
Speaker 1: think a great We'll come back a lot of Betty
Speaker 1: stuff to get into. You bet you will join us too,

Speaker 1: dude Fantasy Sports Network. You'll find us there. Enjoy the
Speaker 1: show and thanks for listening. Back with you here on
Speaker 1: the BFFs. Gregg Susman with you. Chris Ventures gonna join
Speaker 1: us in a little bit. I got a lot of
Speaker 1: netting stuff to get you, baseball football and the like.
Speaker 1: Venture and I also draft back to back in the
Speaker 1: G S T League UH this weekend, So I'd like
Speaker 1: to get his thoughts on that. I'm very open book
Speaker 1: when it comes to this stuff. I find it interesting.
Speaker 1: And maybe it's because we've been doing this for a
Speaker 1: long time, all of us, and I played in a
Speaker 1: lot of fantasy leagues long before I was in front
Speaker 1: of a camera's talking about it. But I feel like
Speaker 1: I'm more of an open book than I've ever been.
Speaker 1: Like when I have a draft, as I said, the
Speaker 1: Holy Draft on Sunday, it's an auction after the G
Speaker 1: S T and Venture and I, as I said, are
Speaker 1: back to back and like he's not hiding who he wants.
Speaker 1: I'm not hiding who I want. It's we're open books
Speaker 1: about this, and I think maybe that's just simply confidence
Speaker 1: in ourselves and who we want. And it is what
Speaker 1: it is, and the dominoes are going to fall where
Speaker 1: they may. But it's funny because for years, like I
Speaker 1: would never tell anybody that, who do you want? Well,
Speaker 1: if you listen to the show, you'll find out exactly
Speaker 1: who I want, And especially in an auction, like I
Speaker 1: could tell you every guy that I want if you
Speaker 1: want a price and force me go right ahead. But
Speaker 1: I have never I at least this year, I've never
Speaker 1: have felt more passionate about it than I do. Now
Speaker 1: that you can know everybody what I want, you want
Speaker 1: to know exactly what I want. I sat here for
Speaker 1: five months talking about how much I like James Conner.
Speaker 1: You know what. I sat with Ventra a couple of
Speaker 1: hours ago being like, all right, what are you doing
Speaker 1: at eleven? I have ten I need to figure out
Speaker 1: what I want to do in the second round, and
Speaker 1: he goes, well, I like this wide receiver, I like
Speaker 1: this running back. That's my plan And I'm very honest,
Speaker 1: like I could try to screw him over and lie
Speaker 1: to him and say, hey, in the at the tenth spot,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take one guy that just swerved to throw
Speaker 1: him off his game. But like, why, I don't need
Speaker 1: that upper hand. I am confident in my abilities. I
Speaker 1: don't know that Frank in my car, but I am
Speaker 1: confident in my abilities that there's no need to hide anything.
Speaker 1: There's no need to lie. It's all very very clear
Speaker 1: and transparent. And Jake used to talking about I know
Speaker 1: Florio did too, especially in his home league. He used
Speaker 1: to say, Oh, these guys, they go earlier because I
Speaker 1: want him. That's okay, Like fine, Like in a state draft,
Speaker 1: if people want to do that, I'm prepared for it.
Speaker 1: I can go in a lot of different directions here. Um,
Speaker 1: I can go in many different ways. Scott Angele used
Speaker 1: to say, there's a million ways to win a fantasy league,
Speaker 1: and it's true, and he doesn't care about picks. He'd
Speaker 1: never be someone to trade up for a pick because
Speaker 1: he thinks he could win from anywhere and just because
Speaker 1: you know that he likes Cooper Cup and I'll never
Speaker 1: forget At the G S. T League a couple of
Speaker 1: years back, I went up to him and I flipp
Speaker 1: from the burn when I took Cooper Coup and he
Speaker 1: doesn't care. It doesn't matter because there's a million guys
Speaker 1: that he likes. There's a million ways to win, so
Speaker 1: ultimately there's nothing to hide. And I think it's very,
Speaker 1: very honest, and I'm gonnaways going to be honest with
Speaker 1: you because I'm an open book and I'm an hide
Speaker 1: and I don't think you should be worried about it either.
Speaker 1: You like who you like, and there's never anything to
Speaker 1: worry about when it comes to um being secretive from
Speaker 1: your league mates. It's all good. If you want to
Speaker 1: chime into that, well, feel free in our YouTube chat
Speaker 1: at Greg Susman on Twitter at Fantasy BFS. That's ultimately,
Speaker 1: all you need to do is just be honest, be
Speaker 1: clear in your fantasy leaves. You guys know me. You've
Speaker 1: been listening to me for for years at this point,
Speaker 1: talk about these topics. And I'm a strategy type of guy,
Speaker 1: like I love having the strategy um conversations with you
Speaker 1: guys because I think they're almost more fun because I
Speaker 1: put this back in my ear, Um, i think they're
Speaker 1: more fun than sitting here and talking about oh, one
Speaker 1: guy versus one guy. We do that and it's a
Speaker 1: good conversation. And again, open book. I'm learning stuff constantly,
Speaker 1: or Frank will throw it out and Florio will throw
Speaker 1: it out and e Y will throw it out. You
Speaker 1: see me, you sitting here, You see me staring deep
Speaker 1: into my computer, like, all right, move this guy now,
Speaker 1: because of an open book. I don't mind being the
Speaker 1: one that's going to sit here and tell you I
Speaker 1: don't know everything. I love sitting and chatting with you
Speaker 1: guys because you teach me stuff. When how many times
Speaker 1: have you told me, well this about this guy? And
Speaker 1: I'm moving just literally this morning talking about strategy, right, Florio?
Speaker 1: Can I have the tenth overall pick the Sunday? And admittedly,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be very clear, half of you guys listening
Speaker 1: play in our league. I want James Conner or Levy
Speaker 1: on Bell I have the tenth pick. Is that possible?
Speaker 1: I don't know, but I want that because mainly old
Speaker 1: yet be out of an argument with Florio and Frank.
Speaker 1: But also I like my team's gonna shape up a
Speaker 1: little bit more. And I'm telling you that straight up.
Speaker 1: I want Levy on Bell or I want James Connor,
Speaker 1: and if I don't get those guys, everything's gonna have
Speaker 1: to change. So because of that, and I was trying
Speaker 1: to do contingencies and whatnot, I wound up looking more
Speaker 1: into Joe Mixon. And it's a guy that, as I
Speaker 1: pull up my notes here, it's a guy who I'm like.
Speaker 1: It was really much better than I thought. Last year.
Speaker 1: I talked about the brutalness of the offensive line and
Speaker 1: it's not good. You look what Joe Mixon did in
Speaker 1: weeks twelve through seventeen seventeen doesn't count for fantasy whatever.
Speaker 1: Fine in week twelve, fourteen eighty nine, in week thirteen,
Speaker 1: twelve eighty two, Week fourteen twenty six carries for a
Speaker 1: hundred and eleven, Week fifteen twenty seven carries one twenty
Speaker 1: nine sixteen wasn't good. Against Cleveland, he had seventeen for
Speaker 1: sixty eight. Followed up against Pittsburgh in weeks seventeen with
Speaker 1: seventeen for one oh five. That stretched where he clearly
Speaker 1: finally got healthy. It was really good when he was
Speaker 1: healthy early in the year. We swent in two seventeen
Speaker 1: for ninety five, twenty one for eighty four when Joe
Speaker 1: Mixon was healthy last year, he was really good. And
Speaker 1: you put a coach in there like Zach Taylor, who's
Speaker 1: going to utilize the talent that he has, seemingly better
Speaker 1: than Marvin Lewis and the cast of characters that he
Speaker 1: had as his coaching staff come around a lot more
Speaker 1: to Joe Mixon today than I wasn't any time previously.
Speaker 1: In this off season, I looked at Joe Mixon, I
Speaker 1: looked at the offensive line, and I looked at the
Speaker 1: Bagel's offense, and it sucks. It's terrible. But Joe Mixing
Speaker 1: himself with that same brutal offensive line last year, it
Speaker 1: was really good. He had games last year, including the
Speaker 1: opener he had five receptions, seven targets from Andy Dalton.
Speaker 1: Later in the year in Week fourteen, where he had
Speaker 1: where he basically played every snap, five more receptions, six
Speaker 1: more targets. If Joe Mixing is utilized in this role
Speaker 1: and he's utilized as a true bell cow, which I
Speaker 1: think he can, there's a lot to like with Joe Mixon.
Speaker 1: So the question became this morning between Frank Florio and
Speaker 1: I Joe Mixon versus Todd Gurley, and as anybody that
Speaker 1: reads um what Michael Florio says, or listening to our program,
Speaker 1: he's the girly guy because he believes that Todd Gurley
Speaker 1: has the ability to finishes the number one overall player.
Speaker 1: Why because we've seen it. But the reason I'm now
Speaker 1: coming around of mixing and if Frank's listening is gonna
Speaker 1: love it's because the upside for Joe Mixon, I don't
Speaker 1: think he's capped. The upside for Todd Gurley is he's
Speaker 1: going to only have fifteen twenty carries per game or
Speaker 1: fifteen twenty touches per game. Floria knows that his thought
Speaker 1: is like, that's fine, how Gurley is good enough, and
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter Joe Mixon when the six carries, I
Speaker 1: stare at twenty seven carries, I stare at he had
Speaker 1: two and thirty seven, or rushing attempts he had fifty
Speaker 1: five targets. There's more to go around with Joe Mixon.
Speaker 1: And if I believe Zach Taylor and I be leave
Speaker 1: this trend that if you know Sean McVeigh, you're going
Speaker 1: to get hired. And for the good reason. There's a
Speaker 1: lot to like. Zach Taylor was a part of that
Speaker 1: crew that helped Todd Gurley have over two thousand rushing
Speaker 1: yards and over two thousand total yards rather and over
Speaker 1: thirty touchdowns over the last two seasons. Joe Mixon's falling
Speaker 1: down draft boards, and now I'm kind of wondering why
Speaker 1: there's major upside here. I know that Joe on Jerry's
Speaker 1: left guard. I know that losing the left tackle really
Speaker 1: hurts his running game. But as long as he's on
Speaker 1: the field, and as long as Jeo Bernard is isolated,
Speaker 1: Joe Mixon is creeping right back in to this tier
Speaker 1: with Nick Chubb and Dalvin Cook. Admittedly, I had surpassing
Speaker 1: Joe Mixon, and I still do. I still have it Cook,
Speaker 1: and then I still have it Cook, then Chubb and
Speaker 1: then early Mixing. But they're all together, They're all in
Speaker 1: that tire when it comes to this GST draft. I
Speaker 1: just don't I don't want to get involved, and I
Speaker 1: don't want to fight with my Teammate's not the issue
Speaker 1: ending this kind of segment on a strategy conversation. That's
Speaker 1: the issue. When you're in a league with partners. I
Speaker 1: love being able to talk about my partner's having somebody
Speaker 1: else that cares about my fantasy football league. But I
Speaker 1: don't love that. I got Frank and one here. I
Speaker 1: got Floria, my heir, and I'm the one with the
Speaker 1: trigger and a year and no matter what I do,
Speaker 1: that I'm wrong, not so fun. Let's take a break,
Speaker 1: let me come back then move one of the gambling stuff.
Speaker 1: I want to talk to Chris Ventro a lot about tonight,
Speaker 1: a lot about some season totals as well gambling. The

Speaker 1: leader in yards the NFL this season. Okay, all right,
Speaker 1: you know you don't don't need who do you think
Speaker 1: the favorite is for all purpose yards se Kwan Barkley, Barkley,
Speaker 1: that's correct. The odds are uh plus to ten plus
Speaker 1: three hundred plus three hundred, very good. Number one overall.
Speaker 1: Number two is purpose yards. Um, let's go with I
Speaker 1: would say Zeke, but I feel like that fell down
Speaker 1: number three. Okay, he's number three right there, you're right there.
Speaker 1: Can I say Julio Jones. You can't say Julio Jones.
Speaker 1: But he's not even the top ten? Wow? Purpose yuares
Speaker 1: you gotta run running back? Running backs mostly mostly running backs.
Speaker 1: In fact, there is only visually there. There's two more
Speaker 1: receivers that are on here other than um Julio. Well,
Speaker 1: I said the only two right receivers on here total actually,
Speaker 1: the other one being probably there's not on it. There's
Speaker 1: two wide receivers that are on here. One of his interesting,
Speaker 1: you're never at it. One of them is Juju No,
Speaker 1: m hmm, what Dom Starry kill? Okay, he's got you
Speaker 1: a player. He returns punts rushes sometimes, right, that makes sense.
Speaker 1: He's plus eight hundreds. Not I've had batay at plus
Speaker 1: sixteen hundreds. The other wide receiver, she's really tough. It's
Speaker 1: to get it is not like a first or second
Speaker 1: round pick, all right, Um, someone that rushes the ball potentially,
Speaker 1: I have no idea. I can't think of it. No,
Speaker 1: I can't think of anybody Tyler lock It because he
Speaker 1: rushes a little bit too, right, rushes a little bit,
Speaker 1: returns kicks, gets big yardage play really interesting, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: that makes me want to buy into Tyler hocket in fantasy,
Speaker 1: isn't it. I mean, if they're saying that, you know,
Speaker 1: probably gonna have a lot of odds. He is the
Speaker 1: go to receiver on the Seahawks. So, but you're right,
Speaker 1: running backs all the gold purpose guys, so Kamar has
Speaker 1: gotta be up there. Camar is in the top the
Speaker 1: four running backs you drafted between in your first four
Speaker 1: in your fantasy leagues, there one through four, it's Arkley, McCaffrey, Zeke,
Speaker 1: and Alvin. Kamara was the first four. Then the next
Speaker 1: your running backs you're probably gonna draft Dvid Johnson, Leavy
Speaker 1: on Bell. They're both there at plus seven hundred. I
Speaker 1: mentioned Tyreek Hill and Tyler Lockett. Um two other players
Speaker 1: in to the top ten, Todd Gurley at plus dred.
Speaker 1: I mean he can do it. I don't think he will.
Speaker 1: It's not good bet your boy plus two thousand, my
Speaker 1: boy Cohen, Yeah, you're talking about him on the Frenzy today.
Speaker 1: I think he's the best pass catching back in the
Speaker 1: league right now. Plust two thousands, I got some I
Speaker 1: got some other stuff for you here, mhm. The odds
Speaker 1: to win. We're doing this for Frank a lot here
Speaker 1: on the program as of late, and that is NFC North,
Speaker 1: the odds to win the division. What do you think
Speaker 1: is the favorite when the NFC North? I would say,
Speaker 1: right now it's the Bears' is the Bears? What the
Speaker 1: odds are? I would say plus one out of of course?
Speaker 1: What percentage of bets if your bet any on the
Speaker 1: they on the teams to win the division? What percentage
Speaker 1: of bets is coming in on the Bears appared to
Speaker 1: the other teams in the North. Yeah? Uh, what percentage
Speaker 1: coming in the basins? I would say less than fifty Yeah,
Speaker 1: really sixty five percent? That's high. The bets are coming
Speaker 1: in on the Bears to win the NFC North, I
Speaker 1: guess because plus one eighties and pretty good eyes. It
Speaker 1: is pretty good eyes. It's pretty good odds for a
Speaker 1: team that we went told him foolish. It is the favorite.
Speaker 1: So the second favorite of Green Bay Packers, Aaron Rodgers,
Speaker 1: get it to plus one nineties. They're basically even. Only
Speaker 1: sixteen percent of the bets are coming in on the
Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers. Fifteen percent it's coming on the Minnesota Vikings,
Speaker 1: which is plus two ten. Those three teams very bunched up, right.
Speaker 1: They have the lions in the cellar here plus twelve. Yeah,
Speaker 1: no one's bet that I would not. I would, I would.
Speaker 1: I would take the Vikings plus to ten. I mean,
Speaker 1: the best odds, and they I think they have just
Speaker 1: much of a shot to win division, especially as much
Speaker 1: as the Packers. They might even be better than the Packers.
Speaker 1: I mean, Rogers is the one X factor there for
Speaker 1: for the Packers, and then major factors the major X factor.
Speaker 1: But the Vikings got everything else. The defense. They gotta
Speaker 1: beat on defense. Theyve gotta beat on my receivers. They
Speaker 1: Mike simmer has got en nothing to lose this year. Well,
Speaker 1: he has a lot to lose. No, John, He's gonna
Speaker 1: go all out. He's like not holding anything back here
Speaker 1: at this point. Yeah, he's gonna go for the gold.
Speaker 1: You know, he's gonna run people to the ground if
Speaker 1: he has to. Literally is they're only gonna run the ball.
Speaker 1: You run the ball a lot. Uh. But and the
Speaker 1: Bears plus one eight, I mean that's close plus one
Speaker 1: plus two ten. I mean Bears are the smart money.
Speaker 1: I think the Vikings win this division though, I really do.
Speaker 1: All right, So there you go. Now to what do
Speaker 1: I have next for you here? Okay, so we talked
Speaker 1: for all purpose yards. We talked about at the NFC North.
Speaker 1: It's you know, the preseason for tonight Eagles and Jaguars. Tonight,
Speaker 1: well spread hold one tonight spread his three points. Okay,
Speaker 1: he got wind. Uh Eagles, I was I would say
Speaker 1: the the Eagles are the favorite. They're not, okay because
Speaker 1: they're probably benching starters. Well, well, I mean they're in Jacksonville.
Speaker 1: What that means anything that? Yeah? Uh, Nate Southern fella
Speaker 1: is gonna play a lot tonight, no doubt for Philadelphia
Speaker 1: for Jacksonville. I'm interesting to see if Nick Foles plays.
Speaker 1: You do not play the first preseason game, he should
Speaker 1: play in this one. I think you will, Yeah, because
Speaker 1: you want to see what you got in your new
Speaker 1: quarterbacks with your new players, you know. So I would
Speaker 1: so that in that case, if Nick Foles playing and
Speaker 1: Wentz is not. Yeah, so the minus three makes sense.
Speaker 1: Then for the Jaguars, the percent of the bests on
Speaker 1: draft kings on the Eagles coming on the Eagles. That's weird, interesting, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: you were not looking at the Eagles regular season team here,
Speaker 1: you know, of course not. And the Jaguars defense real
Speaker 1: they're gonna play a good portion. Now, Joe Ronieri was
Speaker 1: talking about there's this morning on Make It Rain. He
Speaker 1: was saying that the line moved more so than any
Speaker 1: other line this week or today. Now, I don't see
Speaker 1: that on really, I don't really see that. I see.
Speaker 1: I mean they opened Jacksonville has a three point favorite.
Speaker 1: They I don't really see that. I'm looking. I thought
Speaker 1: it was interesting the game total. This one's thirty four.
Speaker 1: You going over under? Well, I hear a theory that
Speaker 1: it's good to go under in most preseason games. So
Speaker 1: I would say, un all right, most of the bets
Speaker 1: here for this game are coming in over. Most of
Speaker 1: the money itself is coming in on the understand of
Speaker 1: the money. Yeah, it's coming on the the the big
Speaker 1: Fisher been on the huh. But the majority of the
Speaker 1: Bets coming on the over. Interesting. That is interesting. Another
Speaker 1: one Jets and Falcons tonight. The Falcons here in this
Speaker 1: one are a two and a half point favorite. Okay,
Speaker 1: there will be no Julio Jones, no, Maddy. Are we
Speaker 1: sure about that now, Mandy Ice? I'm pretty sure? All? Well,
Speaker 1: were you? Were you going to say that or you're
Speaker 1: just saying Holy John Julia Johns? Probably no Davonte Freeman, right.
Speaker 1: I don't know about Havin Ridley yet. Okay, I would
Speaker 1: think he plays leaving Bell played on it. You're gonna
Speaker 1: see Sam Donald. He didn't see Lavan Bell last week.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you'll see Bell, and if you do,
Speaker 1: I think you see him for a very limited very
Speaker 1: limited Yeah. How long did Donald places for half? Does
Speaker 1: he get that far quarter? A quarter? If he gets
Speaker 1: that far quarter? So this spread open at point and
Speaker 1: a half. It's now up to two. Okay. I don't
Speaker 1: like the Jets. They lost the Giants, so they're plus
Speaker 1: two the Giants. The Jets, Yeah, lost lost the Giants,
Speaker 1: but well we see its beens where you're looking. Vandal
Speaker 1: right now has it at two and a half. Most
Speaker 1: sports folks in Vegas having it too. That means probably
Speaker 1: won't get into facts before it goes up to two
Speaker 1: and a half, right, right, right? I like, I'm with you.
Speaker 1: I like the Jets plus two because if Donald's gonna
Speaker 1: start a quarter, that could be a huge lead, right,
Speaker 1: especially if ever seen only Matt Shop. Yeah no, no,
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan. Matt Shop hasn't really looked great either. The
Speaker 1: other the other quarterback though for the Falcons, actually looked
Speaker 1: good in the last preseason game. Who's competing for the job?
Speaker 1: I forget who the name? Uh? Someone younger that might
Speaker 1: you know, played out? You might beat out job. Yeah,
Speaker 1: a veteran because we know we're getting from Shop, you know.
Speaker 1: All right? Let me uh, let me continue here, and
Speaker 1: the next game up tonight is to Ravens and Packers.
Speaker 1: Ravens are a three and a half point favorite at
Speaker 1: home against Green Bay. No Iron Rodgers, No Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 1: Is there anyone else guaranteed out tonight? I don't. I
Speaker 1: don't think Aaron Jones is playing. That's all I got
Speaker 1: for you, Okay, Yeah, so I would do the Ravens.
Speaker 1: Yeah minus three and a half of minus three. Uh,
Speaker 1: let's see so here it opened at three and a
Speaker 1: half on most sports books it's at three and a half.
Speaker 1: The vandal sports book hasn't it three and a half
Speaker 1: as well. I don't like minus three and a half
Speaker 1: and half. I don't like the hook. I don't like
Speaker 1: the hook. I would buy the point to get minus frees.
Speaker 1: Heasons this is what it's coming, Sason. But I would
Speaker 1: never bet preseason. I'm not gonna lie, not that guy. No,
Speaker 1: not unless I see something glaring right, like you know,
Speaker 1: three of the like the triplets on the Falcons not starting,
Speaker 1: then me like, I bet the Jets because Donald's gonna
Speaker 1: play for Florida. But in most circumstances, most circumstances, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, I would not touch the preseason because you
Speaker 1: don't know what could happen. You know, you've got old
Speaker 1: second string, third string guys playing. Anything could happen, really,
Speaker 1: anything really could happen. But you know these coaches, the
Speaker 1: coaches caring more than anybody. Oh yeah, so I want
Speaker 1: to dive into these coaches with you a little bit,
Speaker 1: and we're trying to predict based on that. Sounds good?
Speaker 1: All not more coming your way. This is the BFFs
Speaker 1: here on the Fantasy Sports Nework. He's christ I'm Greg
Speaker 1: will take you the top stick are out more all
Speaker 1: the way next. Hey, thanks for downloading the podcast, and remember,

Speaker 1: We're back BFS Fantasy at Sports Network's Chris Ventra. I
Speaker 1: am Dragon Sumerica. All right, Chris, one more preseason game.
Speaker 1: He gets you, and I want to focus on the
Speaker 1: coaches now right. You got Jacksonville and Philadelphia, two better
Speaker 1: head coaches, Marone Peterson. Take away from there. Daniel's rediscue
Speaker 1: is interesting. You got Zach Taylor, J. Gruden. The rescue
Speaker 1: has got stopped last week offense, really bad on offense,
Speaker 1: Zach Taller, young fresh, nobody expecting anything in the Bengals tonight.
Speaker 1: Let's do it half in Washington. How they do in
Speaker 1: the in Week one though, Bengals. I don't have all
Speaker 1: the answers. I don't have that answer. Didn't that one?
Speaker 1: Actually have no idea's preseason Week one the Bengals. Let
Speaker 1: me see here, they played the Chiefs. That probably didn't
Speaker 1: go well, right, maybe it did. I probably didn't know,
Speaker 1: all right, the Ravens, So I know the Redskins got
Speaker 1: smashed three ten't yeah? They lost. The Browns lost the Browns,
Speaker 1: the Browns and Browns, right, yeah, the Bengals here, I
Speaker 1: don't have. I don't have that. It's a Redskins block.
Speaker 1: I hold up, so go go me here, um, because hey,
Speaker 1: I just type it in and all right, whatever it
Speaker 1: doesn't it does Pust two and a half. The Bengals
Speaker 1: lost thirty seventeen. There there there, They're now the over
Speaker 1: for sure, like the Bengals tonight, exact all over Jake
Speaker 1: plus two and a half. Why not because Zach Taylor
Speaker 1: has Is it because of Zach tail? Yeah? Motivation, little
Speaker 1: motivation for him to get a little win in preseason
Speaker 1: in his first taste of victory. Think, all right, yeah,
Speaker 1: I like it because the Redskins, uhmic offensively Packers you
Speaker 1: got Matt Lafleur, John Harball and he says anything about Lafleur.
Speaker 1: We like the Ravens, we said jetson Falcons. Adam Gaates
Speaker 1: doesn't give a crowd And here was damn Quinn m
Speaker 1: And now he gets to it. Now he gets to
Speaker 1: it the last game of the Night Raiders. You know
Speaker 1: John Gruden cares more about this than anything. Yeah, yeah, nothing,
Speaker 1: I was going for you. He just needs to win.
Speaker 1: You got the Cardinals of the Cliff Kingsbury who also
Speaker 1: wants to put up a crapload of points on the board,
Speaker 1: show off his offensive genius. You got to imagine this
Speaker 1: game is going over the number right forty? No, shouldn't
Speaker 1: we go to opposite? You go on over? Damn, there's
Speaker 1: no defense in this game. I mean, Murray's gonna play
Speaker 1: more than he played last week right through what seven passes?
Speaker 1: How many pasts do you think he throws this game? Um,
Speaker 1: a lot? At least double fourteen? Okay? Four? Right? Right?
Speaker 1: So you gotta like that for the car No, yeah, man,
Speaker 1: only minus one? Right? And the Raiders have nothing you seeing.
Speaker 1: Harround's not playing, so I'm not to get to that.
Speaker 1: His feet are not playing. It's an interesting we haven't
Speaker 1: seen Josh Jacobs Tyrrod Williams at all in Hard Knocks.
Speaker 1: It's so weird. I don't well you you told him.
Speaker 1: I think you told me that Josh Jacobs said that
Speaker 1: he doesn't want to be told me that. Well, I
Speaker 1: guess somebody told me that that Josh Jacobs doesn't want
Speaker 1: to be on camera or he doesn't want to be
Speaker 1: shown on the show. Arizona put up seventeen points in
Speaker 1: a week one the preseason against the Cardinals, Sorry, the Chargers,
Speaker 1: the Raiders. It's one. Yeah, it's the Rams, right, I
Speaker 1: need more? Hell man, alright, fine, you want to take
Speaker 1: the over? I would go with minus one of the lock,
Speaker 1: which last time was the Lions who got stopped by
Speaker 1: New England. Yeah what over forty, it's lock, that's your
Speaker 1: lock over forty. Will say this, The total game total
Speaker 1: opened at forty one across the boards now at thirty
Speaker 1: nine and a half. So everybody's oh no, everyone's are
Speaker 1: everyone's So you want to go against the grain, all right, whatever?
Speaker 1: I like Arizona minus one. I would bet that that
Speaker 1: game actually really interesting. That gave Chris opened at three.
Speaker 1: It's now all the way down to one. Scare you
Speaker 1: everybody's on the Raiders. Everybody's on the Raiders, I think
Speaker 1: because the hard knocks maybe though Gruden, you know, and
Speaker 1: Gruden wants to crush people's dreams, like Cliff Kingsbury, I'm sure,
Speaker 1: and Kyler Murray, but I don't think there's just not
Speaker 1: enough there. You're not you know, you don't have Antonio
Speaker 1: Brown playing. Uh. The only thing I can think of
Speaker 1: is Josh Jacobs maybe having a big day. But otherwise
Speaker 1: Arizona has Kyler Murray throwing the ball fifteen times, maybe
Speaker 1: running it a couple of times. I think they get
Speaker 1: a nice little early lead and hold it because the
Speaker 1: Raiders don't come much after that. Will you be watching
Speaker 1: three seasons tonight? I will watch the the Falcons Jets
Speaker 1: probably a little bit. I want to see Darnel. What
Speaker 1: do I say, Darneld Donald Donald? Yeah, I think it's
Speaker 1: French for some reason. Darna like Travis darn Now like
Speaker 1: Travis darn Now. Um. Maybe I'll watch a little bit
Speaker 1: of the Radus Cardinals too. I want to see murraye
Speaker 1: that offense. Listen, I were thinking everything we could get.
Speaker 1: I got too many fantasy drafts this weekend. We got
Speaker 1: one back to back, saying next to each other on Sunday,
Speaker 1: how do you feel about that? It was this year
Speaker 1: two for you? And just this is year two. Year one.
Speaker 1: I got destroyed. Um, I come into an expert's league
Speaker 1: and I just got you know, I got yeah, throw
Speaker 1: thrown through the ring of Uh. This year they coming
Speaker 1: a little stronger. But I do have a co manager.
Speaker 1: This year I have a partner. This yow you got
Speaker 1: you can still have not been on the same page. No,
Speaker 1: we have not, and we we discussed it. I know.
Speaker 1: I like that. We're very open about it, spoke about it. Uh.
Speaker 1: He wants he wants to go a certain route in
Speaker 1: the draft. He wants to go wide receiver, war receiver.
Speaker 1: I kind of want to go wide receiver running back
Speaker 1: at that eleven spot because you know how I like
Speaker 1: to do. I would like to get Julio Cook, but
Speaker 1: that might not work out. You got to pick before us,
Speaker 1: so and you told us your plan very honest, I
Speaker 1: say before in the show, very honest, with nothing to
Speaker 1: hide to you. Yeah, I mean you're before me, so
Speaker 1: you're gonna get who you want. And you're telling me
Speaker 1: you're being very honest. I'm being very honest. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's what I want. And if I don't get him
Speaker 1: too fine. I mean, you know, we're having fun, but
Speaker 1: it is a big money league. And uh, I never
Speaker 1: had a co manager really before in any fantasy never,
Speaker 1: so this is the first time Steve. So you know,
Speaker 1: we gotta why did you take a co manager? Well?
Speaker 1: I told Steve about the league and he's like, oh,
Speaker 1: I want to be Like he kind of came to
Speaker 1: me and he was very aggressive about it, like, oh,
Speaker 1: you want to co manage it. I was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's three right, so I'd rather split that. Yeah, sure,
Speaker 1: and I'm sure I'll be able to make most of
Speaker 1: the executive decisions. Why do you say that Steve is
Speaker 1: very into it. I mean it was originally my team,
Speaker 1: you know, originally doesn't matter. He's gonna pay a hund
Speaker 1: in sixty dollars? What if I pay? What if I
Speaker 1: paid um the extra twenty? He pays one fifty, I
Speaker 1: pay one seventy. Now I'm executive. I don't know, executive
Speaker 1: on I don't know. That's pretty fair. It's gonna be
Speaker 1: really interesting seeing you guys in the draft, because you know,
Speaker 1: I've drive a million teams at this point with Frank
Speaker 1: a million teams in Floria, and you guys still sometimes
Speaker 1: have situation all the time. I mean, he hated when
Speaker 1: we drive when you saw us yesterday, I argue about early.
Speaker 1: So it's gonna happen. Steve's done it before. It seems
Speaker 1: very passionate about his guys, and we're both were gonna
Speaker 1: be live there. You're just gonna be there because Frank's
Speaker 1: not right, but they'll be I'm sure texting you and
Speaker 1: well Frank, I don't know, Floria will be texting me
Speaker 1: Florial definitely. But the thing is, you got three pet
Speaker 1: that's tough. Three You've got three different opinions, only one
Speaker 1: guys there, So you're gonna be holding in the reins
Speaker 1: ultimately my choice. Yeah, absolutely, I mean, listen, Steve's got
Speaker 1: a plan to try to throw off the BFS two. Really,
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, what's that? I'm not We've been very honest
Speaker 1: with each other. I know, I know it's I'm not
Speaker 1: sure what it's playing is. That's the thing. He wants
Speaker 1: to throw you off somehow. I'm going to do that
Speaker 1: because it's just you, they're not Frank. So he wants
Speaker 1: you guys to get off your game. Since you're picking
Speaker 1: before us too. So that's why I brought Stephen as
Speaker 1: a secret weapon to bring me down to earth a
Speaker 1: little bit, because I'm a little delusion about certain guys,
Speaker 1: uh specifically Kenyan Drake. You know, this guy's I love
Speaker 1: and I will take them no matter what. Ronald Jones,
Speaker 1: and I need him to like, you know, basically keep
Speaker 1: me level. This is uh. So last year the draft
Speaker 1: was held on a Saturday. It was Saturday, August, so
Speaker 1: next weekend, right, what we're drafting this one week early
Speaker 1: on Sunday to Sunday, It's right, So that was a year.
Speaker 1: I got engaged immediately following the GSD draft last year.
Speaker 1: So my heart was not in. My heart was not
Speaker 1: in the draft, but you were Frank with it together,
Speaker 1: left together, and I eventually I was liked Frank, I
Speaker 1: I gotta go. I got Yeah. You left early. Yeah, man,
Speaker 1: I don't remember I left. I mean, listen, I made
Speaker 1: like the first twelve picks I left, I missed last
Speaker 1: four whatever, whatever. But it was a year to the
Speaker 1: day got engaged. G ST draft day. Yeah. Wow. I
Speaker 1: think we all got engaged around the same time too,
Speaker 1: a wedding day yet. Yeah, February going boar boar, Yeah,
Speaker 1: for a wedding. I didn't realize it was official. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's booked. What um, I think it's a second week
Speaker 1: of February. You know, I don't know. Yeah, she did it.
Speaker 1: I don't do anything. I don't do anything for that.
Speaker 1: See here, you could be getting married on my birthday.
Speaker 1: Possibly today is a Saturday night you're getting married, or
Speaker 1: any game we're going. We're going for almost two weeks.
Speaker 1: We're only getting married one of the days. So you're
Speaker 1: going after the super Bowl? Yes, yes, I definitely after
Speaker 1: the super Bowl. The whole football season has to play out. Yeah, football,
Speaker 1: let's see. Yes, the super Bowls probably earlier this year
Speaker 1: because yeah, it's all the seconds year. Good. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: usually second, right, Yeah, it's usually first Sunday. This year
Speaker 1: happens to be the seconds. Ye're good? Um, all right,
Speaker 1: So it's gonna be fun, No stress, don't have to
Speaker 1: worry about the catering and all this. That also kind
Speaker 1: of your honeymoon. Yes, that's that's the whole thing, exactly.
Speaker 1: It's all in one's just you guys. You bring your
Speaker 1: families or what. No, but her mother did want, she
Speaker 1: said she wanted to come with just me and her
Speaker 1: and her mother. I was like, no, that's not that's
Speaker 1: gonna be hard of it. Yeah, I said, I was
Speaker 1: a hard no. And Christina she's she gave a hard
Speaker 1: note on that as well. So it's just be us too,
Speaker 1: because we don't want to stress about a wedding. The
Speaker 1: whole my whole theory on weddings is like, why is
Speaker 1: it so stressful for the people that are actually getting married?
Speaker 1: Beyond stressful? Beyond stressful. You have to worry about all
Speaker 1: this thing money, blah blah blah, and you gotta make
Speaker 1: everyone happy. It was the food good? Is this good?
Speaker 1: Who wants to deal with that? Right? So I think
Speaker 1: the new way of the wave of weddings should be
Speaker 1: going away, making a honeymoon in one and you know,
Speaker 1: one of those days you just it's right, it's just
Speaker 1: one day where you're just you and herror and you
Speaker 1: do a little ceremony, you have a little priest or whatever,
Speaker 1: and you're on the beach and it's beautiful and it's
Speaker 1: over quick. There's nobody else they're watching. That's pretty awesome.
Speaker 1: I think that's fun. I kind of kind of like that,
Speaker 1: what are you doing. What are you doing? Freaking you're
Speaker 1: doing this thing and everyone's fighting. Okay, cool, it's November
Speaker 1: as soon, yes, very eighties six days away or something
Speaker 1: like that. Are you nervous I'm nervous about I mean
Speaker 1: I already said yes, I'll be honest, I get nervous
Speaker 1: about family, all families coming together one arena or one place.
Speaker 1: I don't really get so I noticed that this process,
Speaker 1: Like I don't really get stressed out, is what it is.
Speaker 1: Like She's like all of stress, usually the women, and
Speaker 1: especially like especially after the fight happensteen us between somebody
Speaker 1: going on. She like she like wears it on her sleeve,
Speaker 1: like the next couple of days, within within seconds, Like
Speaker 1: you watch TV TV. I can't think about this right now.
Speaker 1: What you doing? We got shows to watch? Yeah, you
Speaker 1: know you can't let that get to you. But I
Speaker 1: do worry about a lot of people because my family's crazy.
Speaker 1: Family is a little crazy coming together. Yeah, exactly, coming together.
Speaker 1: I mean it's a problem. In the engagement party, it
Speaker 1: was a good time, but you know, you had your issues.
Speaker 1: I underlying people embarrassing. Mother embarrassed me. You know what
Speaker 1: she doing, she made she made a she made a
Speaker 1: quick speech, and it made me dance to a song
Speaker 1: with Christina. It was nice, and I was whacked. I
Speaker 1: was so whacked that I didn't even like I don't
Speaker 1: remember what she said, but if I, if I was
Speaker 1: remotely sober, I would have been completely embarrassed, because she
Speaker 1: is embarrassing both of the mothers in particular, very embarrassing. Funny,
Speaker 1: It's very very funny. All right, like two minutes left. Um,
Speaker 1: I think this is dead. So what can they want
Speaker 1: to hear anything? You just you just let me know
Speaker 1: what it's having to get out of here. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: got you right, I know we got like two minutes
Speaker 1: or so. This thing is totally dead. So, um, all right,
Speaker 1: we got a couple games tonight that's run through him quickly. Uh.
Speaker 1: We start in Philly, the Phillies and the coach Drew Smiley,

Speaker 1: what did happen? What did happens? Here's what you missed
Speaker 1: on the BFS. But number two for me is George
Speaker 1: Kittle of San Francisco. I know he's battling a bit
Speaker 1: of an injury year, but Kittle really came to his
Speaker 1: own last year and a little bit younger than Travis Kelsey,
Speaker 1: a little younger than with these other guys are really
Speaker 1: like Kittle, Eric, He's my number two tide end. Yeah, Kiddles,
Speaker 1: number two for me as well, love George Kittle, been
Speaker 1: high on him since he came into the league, huge
Speaker 1: year in San Francisco last year. I think he will regress.
Speaker 1: There will be a bunch of other past catchers there,
Speaker 1: none of which they had last year. Healthy Jimmy Garoppolo
Speaker 1: should help. Um. But I think that they're gonna they're
Speaker 1: gonna distribute this ball far and wide, And I don't
Speaker 1: think there's going to be a number one fantasy option
Speaker 1: really anywhere in San Francisco because there you're game in
Speaker 1: the game, you're not gonna know who's gonna get the targets,
Speaker 1: and they're not gonna know. They're gonna kind of do
Speaker 1: it as as they feel, very West Coast offense style,
Speaker 1: spread the field, throw the ball all over the place
Speaker 1: kind of thing, and and throw it to the running backs. Um.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I got I got Kitttle. He's definitely my
Speaker 1: number two, a guy that I'd be super happy to
Speaker 1: get in the third, fourth, fifth round. Yeah. Absolutely, Where
Speaker 1: he's going around that number makes a lot of sense.
Speaker 1: And I think you're right. You look at this for
Speaker 1: Niners offense and there is no clear number one wide receiver,
Speaker 1: number two, number three, whatever, We talked a lot about
Speaker 1: Dante Pettis this offseason, especially because Frank loves him, and
Speaker 1: all the news coming out of San Francisco is that
Speaker 1: we don't know what role Donte Pettis is ultimately going
Speaker 1: to play in this Four Nighters offense. There's one short
Speaker 1: thing in that is George Kittle. I think it makes
Speaker 1: the conversation even more interesting. Eric, is that with Kansas City, Like, yeah,
Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey is amazing, but you also have Sammy Watkins,
Speaker 1: you also have Tyreek Hill, you also have Damian Williams.
Speaker 1: We're all going to get receptions out or from Patrick Mahomes.
Speaker 1: It's a better offense. I'm not trying to argue that
Speaker 1: San Francisco, like you have Dante Pettis and Ebo Samuel
Speaker 1: and Marky's Goodwin and like awesome, right, like cool. George
Speaker 1: Kiddle is four and away the number one guy to
Speaker 1: me if you're looking at draft, I just got a
Speaker 1: vacuum here and I have to take Travis Kelsey in
Speaker 1: the second round or I can get George Kittle close
Speaker 1: to the fifth. I'm absolutely taking Kittle. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: I wouldn't mind Kidle in the fifth. Um what worries
Speaker 1: me is that Jimmy Garoppolo wasn't the quarterback when he
Speaker 1: was when he was getting all these numbers if you look,
Speaker 1: I mean, there was a connection there, but it wasn't
Speaker 1: like the one with mullins Um. So the reality is
Speaker 1: is is we don't really know. We know that this
Speaker 1: offense is going to be decent. U we I'm pretty
Speaker 1: sure they're going to stockpile fantasy points. UH love the
Speaker 1: coaching staff, love the coordinator. UH like a lot of
Speaker 1: the pieces. But the reality is is we don't know.
Speaker 1: We don't we We've never seen these guys play together.
Speaker 1: And you can't just say, oh, well, he caught a
Speaker 1: bunch of balls last year and that's what's gonna happen.
Speaker 1: It's a different team offensively. Be sure to follow all
