1
00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:05,800
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Drive. I am Dale Lolli. He

2
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:08,760
Speaker 1: is the Matt Williamson and this is our number two

3
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:11,280
Speaker 1: of the Drive, as we do in the second hour

4
00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:14,320
Speaker 1: of all our shows. Yes, we get close to the

5
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:16,639
Speaker 1: season or in season, it's time for the Fantasy Football

6
00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:18,279
Speaker 1: Focus and Matt.

7
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:19,120
Speaker 2: During the playoffs.

8
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:19,480
Speaker 1: What's that?

9
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:21,680
Speaker 2: Will we do something similar during the playoffs? I can't

10
00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:24,760
Speaker 2: stumber DFS And yeah, I'm sure we'll still pick a DFS.

11
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:26,480
Speaker 2: But will we have a segment every day?

12
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:27,760
Speaker 1: I don't know about every day?

13
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:30,920
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, figure that out. May make someone more draft Yeah.

14
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 1: So Jeff Radcliffe on the FtM put together his top

15
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:38,000
Speaker 1: one hundred draft picks for twenty twenty four.

16
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:39,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is fun.

17
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:40,840
Speaker 1: This is again interesting.

18
00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:42,440
Speaker 2: Wanting to think about.

19
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:44,360
Speaker 1: This obviously, I don't know where you know, if he put.

20
00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 2: Any coaching changes and quarterback changes and coordinators of style

21
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:48,960
Speaker 2: guys are to get drafted.

22
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:50,559
Speaker 1: I don't know where you put rookies in here or not.

23
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:52,680
Speaker 1: I haven't looked at it. Let's let's roll through this

24
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:55,120
Speaker 1: and see what he's got. I would not do rookies yet. Yeah,

25
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:57,280
Speaker 1: not yet. You got to see where they land. Yeah,

26
00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:00,520
Speaker 1: so he's Christian McCaffrey. Number one, I agree, I kill

27
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,320
Speaker 1: number two. I agree ceed Lamb. Three.

28
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,319
Speaker 2: Would you take Lamb over Jefferson? I mean, he's having

29
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:07,479
Speaker 2: an unbelievable season.

30
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:10,080
Speaker 1: We know Jefferson's quarterback is going to be right right,

31
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 1: that's the problem. And Lamb's been very good this year.

32
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 2: I haven't lost any faith in Jefferson, but Lamb's been ridiculous.

33
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 1: Yeah.

34
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:18,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, he should be the wide receiver too.

35
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:20,040
Speaker 1: He's got Kyen Williams. Four.

36
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:24,679
Speaker 2: So I had this conversation and we had a different day.

37
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 1: Yeah.

38
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 2: I've had a couple of times actually, because it's been

39
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 2: making me a little crazy, like people saying he's easily

40
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 2: a first round pick next year.

41
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 1: I don't know about that. I don't know.

42
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 2: If he's a good effort.

43
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,319
Speaker 1: Might be, it just won't be by me and probably

44
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 1: not by you, I don't.

45
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 2: I mean, I know i'd take Breese Hall ahead of him. Yeah,

46
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,040
Speaker 2: I mean we'll come up with some names here. I mean,

47
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 2: I haven't given this a ton of thought yet, but

48
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 2: there's some backs I think I take ahead of them.

49
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 2: I know there's a ton of receivers.

50
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, five is Justin Jefferson. Fine, sure, Six is Jamar

51
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 1: Chase cool with that real quick, do you?

52
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 2: I bet Kelsey's not tight end one for the first

53
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 2: time a million year too, because yeah, I could.

54
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 1: See the right, right right. Seven is a J. Brown,

55
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 1: Fine with that.

56
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 2: I mean he had a crazy stretch of those one

57
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 2: hundred and twenty five yard games.

58
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 1: Yeah. Eight is a mon Ross Saint Brown so steady.

59
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:14,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, I had him in my main league and actually

60
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,240
Speaker 2: league with you too, and it's just like, chalk him

61
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 2: up for he's gonna have a fourteen into twenty two everywhere.

62
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 1: Eight catches for one hundred and ten yards in a touchdown.

63
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:22,840
Speaker 2: Ye.

64
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:24,359
Speaker 1: Nine is Breecee Hall.

65
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 2: I would be even high. Well, i'd have him over

66
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 2: Williams yeahing Aaron Rodgers is back, which I'm going to

67
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 2: assume ten is Jamior Gibbs. I would have him over

68
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 2: Williams as well. Yeah, especially in PPR, which I assume

69
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:37,560
Speaker 2: this is.

70
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 1: Eleven is Deebo Samuel.

71
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 2: Wow, we have Debot over Ayuk. I mean it's not

72
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 2: like he gets all these carries like he did two

73
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 2: or three years ago.

74
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think they're both very valuable.

75
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 2: I think they're both very valuable. Yeah, they would be

76
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 2: close for me.

77
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 1: Twelve is Garrett Wilson. Yeah.

78
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 2: Thirteen is Wilson had a really good year with those

79
00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 2: quarterback Yes, I mean that's saying a lot.

80
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 1: Thirteen is Vijean Robinson.

81
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:05,960
Speaker 2: Coaching change wouldn't kill him. Where have you gone? Jon Robinson?

82
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,120
Speaker 1: Yeah? Fourteen Jonathan Taylor.

83
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, this sounds insane, but he might be getting old,

84
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 2: like old, that's the long ray of saying it. But

85
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 2: he's had injuries. He's on a second contract. Twenty seven's

86
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 2: like the age you get away from those guys. And

87
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,240
Speaker 2: he was good not great this year, you know, like

88
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:31,040
Speaker 2: he'd worry me a little, like I'm not using a

89
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 2: first round pick on him.

90
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 1: No, I mean they're not saying he is. Yeah, this

91
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 1: is fourteen. Yeah. Fifteen is DG.

92
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 2: More Yeah, I mean Fields might not be his quarterback,

93
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 2: but he's good.

94
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 1: Sixteen is Poka Nikua.

95
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 2: Wow, all right, I mean I get it. Yeah, I

96
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 2: mean the volumes insane.

97
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 1: He has to be. I had a cop. Seventeen is

98
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 1: Brandon Ayuk. Yeah, so he's made even higher. He's a

99
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:57,400
Speaker 1: free agent. Yeah. Eleven and seventeen you know for Samuel

100
00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 1: and Ayuk.

101
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:00,200
Speaker 2: You know Samuel's being nine or we don't know that yeah.

102
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 1: Yeah. Eighteen is Travis atn I don't know about that.

103
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 1: He really tailed off in the second half of this year.

104
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 2: He's a big game last week, but there was a

105
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 2: long stretch. They don't run the ball very well. If

106
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 2: they invest in some linemen, maybe, Yeah, the running backs

107
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:19,479
Speaker 2: are not very deep. Nineteen is Rashad White, Okay, I

108
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:20,920
Speaker 2: mean catch him passes.

109
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 1: He had a really good year. Yeah. Twenty is DeVante Adams.

110
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 2: Yes, he's got to have a better quarterback situation.

111
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:34,600
Speaker 1: Yeah. Twenty one is Michael Pittman, okay. Twenty two DK Metcalf, Yeah.

112
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 1: Twenty three as Kelsey still has tight end one. I

113
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 1: don't want to take him at him. I would take

114
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 1: Laporta ahead of him. He has Andrews at twenty four.

115
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 2: I think I take Andrews ahead of him. I think

116
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 2: I can take Laporta ahead of both.

117
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 1: I think I would take Laporta.

118
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 2: Hawkins going to be right there if I knew his

119
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 2: injury was clean. But their quarterback situation too.

120
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:54,839
Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean he produced with Dobbs and all

121
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 1: those Googles too. Twenty five as Jalen Hurts as QB one.

122
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 2: Ooh, I get the tush. I mean the toush push

123
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:04,600
Speaker 2: thing is huge. It's humongo.

124
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 1: He's just gonna get you ten extra touchdowns a year

125
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,839
Speaker 1: just because I guess that's worthy. It's not a running

126
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 1: back that you knew was going to score ten touchdowns.

127
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 1: You'd take him.

128
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 2: Round two for sure, if not later, I guess I

129
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:18,039
Speaker 2: just don't think he played great.

130
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,720
Speaker 1: Especially in a league where if you only count touchdown passes,

131
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 1: his four points and rushing touchdowns are six.

132
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's huge. That's a lot of Mahomes touchdowns to

133
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:25,920
Speaker 2: catch up.

134
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 1: Yeah.

135
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,479
Speaker 2: I would still take Alan ahead of them. But I

136
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 2: mean this time last year it was Alan Mahomes hurts

137
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 2: and whatever order you like.

138
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,599
Speaker 1: He has Alan at twenty six, so he's next. Yeah, Okay,

139
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,720
Speaker 1: twenty seven's Kenneth Walker. He looks good.

140
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he'll still stay ahead of hell stuff

141
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,240
Speaker 2: is Yeah, Yeah, it's a concern.

142
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:44,719
Speaker 1: I mean, he doesn't have a ton of catches either.

143
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 1: Twenty eight is Devin a chan.

144
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,719
Speaker 2: Head of monster for you? Assuming they're both back? I

145
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 2: mean most are the new thing.

146
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:53,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, most it's like thirty two.

147
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 2: But he's got twenty million touchdowns.

148
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:59,119
Speaker 1: But I would take but he's thirty two. Yeah, twelve

149
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 1: injury history too. Yeah. Twenty nine is Saquon Barkley. That's

150
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 1: RB eleven.

151
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 2: Might be a little harsh on him. I mean it's

152
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 2: a ball a lot.

153
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,679
Speaker 1: Yeah. Thirty is Nico Collins. That's wide receiver fifteen.

154
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,680
Speaker 2: Do you definitely want Nico over Dell? So that was

155
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,360
Speaker 2: a question in before Dell's injury, they were pretty similar.

156
00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 1: Nico was banged up there and that's when Dal kind

157
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:19,159
Speaker 1: of went off again.

158
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 2: I prefer Nico, Yeah, I could see an argument for both.

159
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 1: Yeah. Thirty one Chris Olave, Yeah, I would take him

160
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:28,800
Speaker 1: at that price all day long, all day long, all

161
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 1: day long. Yeah. Thirty two is Sam Laporta too small? Yeah,

162
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,840
Speaker 1: I mean I'd go even higher. Thirty three is Isaiah Pacheco.

163
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,159
Speaker 1: That's RB twelve. All the way down at thirty three.

164
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 2: Like this, I mean I'm being critical of Ratcliffe, right,

165
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:41,919
Speaker 2: is that?

166
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:43,160
Speaker 1: Who did this? Yeah?

167
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 2: I bet they add someone decent.

168
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 1: I bet too.

169
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, he misses a lot of holes and stuff, like,

170
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 2: I don't think he's a great player.

171
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 1: Thirty four Mike Evans. I wanted nothing to do with

172
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 1: him and Kean Allen last year, and I could have

173
00:06:55,400 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 1: been more wrong. Thirty five is Tank Dell. Thirty six

174
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson is QB three. You to take him over

175
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,279
Speaker 1: my homes. He's still ran for eight hundred yards this year.

176
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I think so take him over like Fields.

177
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 2: I'm just saying, like some of the pure runners.

178
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 1: I think so. Yeah.

179
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:15,200
Speaker 2: H I don't even where Field's gonna play.

180
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,800
Speaker 1: Thirty seven is Cooper Cup That would scare me though.

181
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 1: Thirty eight is Nick Chubb.

182
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 2: No, I don't know he's ever gonna be the same.

183
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 1: I don't know if he will say that. Yeah. Thirty

184
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 1: nine Alvin Kamara, Yeah, think about where you were getting him.

185
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 1: He was just fast though. Yeah, you had to look

186
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:36,200
Speaker 1: at that, and we did it only three games. We

187
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,640
Speaker 1: took him a bunch of times in our lock drafts

188
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 1: way before he should have gone because it's only going

189
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 1: to be three games. Only three games. The long season,

190
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,760
Speaker 1: he caught a million balls. Forty is Josh Jacobs, and

191
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 1: you don't even know where he's gonna end up at.

192
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, but he'd probably be a starter somewhere.

193
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 1: I imagine him in Kansas City, Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Forty

194
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:55,680
Speaker 1: oneas Keenan Allen.

195
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 2: Yes, I'm not sure he'll be back, but I'm not

196
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 2: gonna hesitate to take him. Forty two is Rashi Rice, Okay,

197
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,320
Speaker 2: I mean what he's done lately I think will convince me.

198
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 1: Forty three pretty good list.

199
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 2: TJ Hawkinson as long as he's active week one. I

200
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:14,680
Speaker 2: mean it was a late bad injury, and if he is,

201
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:15,600
Speaker 2: I would have him higher.

202
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 1: Forty four is Patrick Mahomes QB four.

203
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 2: Fair enough, trying to think who QB five would be.

204
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 1: Forty five vermondre Stevenson.

205
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm still a fan. The injury at the end

206
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,040
Speaker 2: won Slow, It doesn't matter to me.

207
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 1: Forty six is DeAndre Swift.

208
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 2: Never scores because the toush pushes.

209
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:40,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, but valuable, valuable. Yeah. Forty seven is James Cook. Yeah.

210
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:42,960
Speaker 2: I keep thinking though at a big back, and but

211
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,200
Speaker 2: he doesn't get the short yard stuff anyway, so his

212
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 2: world wouldn't even change.

213
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,679
Speaker 1: Forty eight is Devonte Smith. That's much lower than you

214
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:52,079
Speaker 1: would have got had to take him this year. I'll

215
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,599
Speaker 1: take him with that price though. Yeah. Forty nine is

216
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,959
Speaker 1: Jaylen Waddle again, same thing. There's number two receivers numbers.

217
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,120
Speaker 1: Guys were going in the high twenties this past I

218
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:01,679
Speaker 1: think that's a fantasy lesson this year.

219
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, really good young number two receivers cook step backwards.

220
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 1: Fifty is Amari Cooper especially.

221
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 2: Well, it's not gonna be Flacco, but he's gonna probably

222
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:11,560
Speaker 2: be the one.

223
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's a pretty good year. Fifty one Trey McBride

224
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 1: is tight end five.

225
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 2: I have him closer to Yeah, that's the pack though, Yeah,

226
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 2: that's I think Kyler's probably gonna be the quarterback again.

227
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 1: He's been really good this year. Fifty two is George Kittle. Yeah,

228
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 1: I don't see anything.

229
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 2: I mean he's gonna haveing down weeks here and there,

230
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:31,320
Speaker 2: but he's gonna have some blow up times.

231
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 1: Fifty three Dak Prescott is QB five.

232
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:42,559
Speaker 2: Hmm, I guess, I guess. I mean Herbert Burrow Fields

233
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:45,440
Speaker 2: can make a make a case out of those.

234
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:50,560
Speaker 1: Uh. Fifty four Stefan Diggs all the way down at why.

235
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:53,960
Speaker 2: Like five minutes ago, Michael, I wonder how long Digs

236
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 2: is gonna fall. He has a big playoffs, he'll go

237
00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:58,959
Speaker 2: up like crazy. Yeah, I mean, like his staff counts

238
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 2: keep dropping. Maybe he's just fighting something, or maybe he's

239
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:05,319
Speaker 2: maybe fighting the bills, or maybe he's fighting age.

240
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 1: Yeah. Fifty five z A Flowers, Yeah, still like George Pickens.

241
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,959
Speaker 1: I have Pickens in this neighborhood. I mean yeah, I

242
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,480
Speaker 1: probably would have taken him by now. Fifty six Marvin

243
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 1: Harrison Junior. So oh, he did include a rookie in there,

244
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:20,720
Speaker 1: wide receiver twenty seven.

245
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:22,199
Speaker 2: I don't know how to comment on that, but you

246
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:23,839
Speaker 2: don't know where he's at. He'll gladly be on my

247
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 2: fantasy team next year, no matter what.

248
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:30,680
Speaker 1: Fifty seven James Connor left for dead too often. Yeah.

249
00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:32,200
Speaker 2: Good, he's just a really good time.

250
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:34,199
Speaker 1: He just always miss his time a little bit. Yeah.

251
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,080
Speaker 2: That could be a good offense, and he's been really

252
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:36,560
Speaker 2: good lately.

253
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 1: Fifty eight Raheem Moster, Sure that's RB twenty Yeah. Yeah.

254
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 1: Fifty nine David Montgomery is RB twenty one.

255
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 2: People, finally I'll take him at that price.

256
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:50,760
Speaker 1: Yeah it might be two thanks, yeah. Uh. Sixty Tony

257
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 1: Pollard all the way down at sixty. He was a

258
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 1: first round draft picking a lot of these things of.

259
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,080
Speaker 2: I was listening to fantasy podcast on the way here

260
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 2: and it just made me chuckle. Someone said they're playing

261
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:04,520
Speaker 2: Washington this week. Paulard's gonna blow up and all of

262
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,839
Speaker 2: his owners are gonna be like, oh, thanks a lot,

263
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 2: Thanks a lot. Yeah, they'll get one point out of here,

264
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 2: and he goes for three touchdowns this week.

265
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 1: Sixty one Joe Burrow is QB six.

266
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, he should be back and fine. And even if

267
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:18,560
Speaker 2: Higgins isn't there, where do you put Higgins?

268
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:19,959
Speaker 1: Hm? I we'll see here.

269
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, seems gonna be a number one on.

270
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:27,840
Speaker 1: Sixty two is uh Javonte Williams. Yeah. Sixty three is

271
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:31,680
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry, who we still haven't had a Steeler yet.

272
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 2: I mean not as a steeler Henry. I don't think

273
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:34,840
Speaker 2: he'll be a Titan, but no.

274
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 1: He could be a cowboy. Yeah, I like that. That

275
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:38,840
Speaker 1: would be a nice pay. You'd be happy with that.

276
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,200
Speaker 1: Sixty four is Joe Mixon. He won't be for me.

277
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:43,960
Speaker 1: I don't think it. Will he be back next year

278
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 1: with him.

279
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 2: I don't think so. I think he'll be like Chase

280
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 2: Brown and a third round pick.

281
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:49,760
Speaker 1: Yeah. Sixty five Aaron Jones.

282
00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:52,000
Speaker 2: Well I'll take him, hirhing that though still no Steelers,

283
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,640
Speaker 2: Still no Steelers. Sixty six Pickens should have gone by now.

284
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 2: Mike Williams, Eh, I mean I take Pickens over Mike Williams.

285
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:00,840
Speaker 2: I don't I think William's gonna be a.

286
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,559
Speaker 1: Charger sixty seven DeAndre Hopkins.

287
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 2: I'm fine with that. Actually, he's been better than I

288
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,480
Speaker 2: thought he'd be this year and they throw him deep balls.

289
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 1: Sixty eight Chris Godwin, he's actually been better than of late.

290
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 1: That's why receiver thirty.

291
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:19,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, I mean picking should be ahead of those guys.

292
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 1: Sixty nine brock perty Is QB seven.

293
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 2: Oh take him over like Herbert Fields. They do throw

294
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 2: a lot of touchdowns. But Stroud, Yeah, Stroud's a good

295
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:31,320
Speaker 2: one too.

296
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:33,440
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean if you get those two receivers up

297
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 1: where they were at, but again again, you had you

298
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 1: had two forty nine Er receivers up that high. Get

299
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:48,120
Speaker 1: m Stroud is number seventy seventy one is is Herbert

300
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,400
Speaker 1: So that's where he sees a kind of a little

301
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:55,560
Speaker 1: run there. Uh. Seventy two Drake London, Yeah, I really

302
00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:59,960
Speaker 1: like the player. Seventy three Courtland Sutton. Still no Steeler receivers.

303
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 1: Who are the hell are that on the Steelers? Did

304
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 1: they get relegated out of the NFL.

305
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:08,199
Speaker 2: Only thirty one teams getting picked there. I don't know

306
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 2: if Sutton's worth I think I kind of think he's

307
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:10,760
Speaker 2: a little fluky.

308
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:12,679
Speaker 1: We don't even know who their quarterback is going to be,

309
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 1: right right, I don't think I'm definitely not taking Sutton

310
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,560
Speaker 1: over picks. I think he's I think he is a

311
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 1: he seems like a regression regression, like he's got a

312
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:22,800
Speaker 1: lot of touchdowns. I don't think that'll keep up. That's

313
00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 1: not going He's not gonna do that. Uh seventy four

314
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:29,560
Speaker 1: Jayden Reid. Hm, I mean I like the player. I

315
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:31,720
Speaker 1: like the player. I like him better than George Pickens.

316
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 2: No, I'm not sure read would be my number one

317
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:37,320
Speaker 2: packer receiver. Yeah, I mean Watson's hard to count on.

318
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 1: Uh, seventy five to a Tago Vailoa sure just doesn't run.

319
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,840
Speaker 1: Seventy six is justin fields. I take fields over to

320
00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 1: a seventy seven Marquise Brown. Mark he's going to change teams, honestly.

321
00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:54,719
Speaker 1: He maybe he forgot the stealer in the league. He

322
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:55,120
Speaker 1: might have.

323
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:58,160
Speaker 2: I mean, even like Nausey and Warren, they should care.

324
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 1: I mean they both have over a thousand total yards

325
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 1: this year.

326
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:04,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, quite a few touchdowns. I mean, Deonta has been

327
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 2: a pretty solid fantasy.

328
00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 1: When he's been out there. Seventy eight Christian.

329
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:13,199
Speaker 2: Kirk, Okay, that's not. I mean Ridley hasn't been mentioned yet.

330
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,560
Speaker 1: Seventy nine is Calvin Ridley, Okay, he's a free agent.

331
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:20,080
Speaker 1: Two eighty is Dalton Kincaid's okay with that.

332
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:23,400
Speaker 2: Seven take him over like Najoku.

333
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 1: I don't trust in Joku. I do because it's going

334
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:30,480
Speaker 1: to be Watson again. And Watson didn't throw to him

335
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:32,800
Speaker 1: like yeah, like the other guys have been.

336
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 2: But Stefanski, will I meant those mid mid first or

337
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 2: mid like six seven eight? Tight ends always have questions.

338
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: I'd rather have Kinkaid.

339
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:43,080
Speaker 2: I like Conkaid, though I do.

340
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 1: Eighty one Terry McLaurin.

341
00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, his situation probably won't be any worse.

342
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 1: Eighty two Jordan Addison, Now, come on, we're down in

343
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:57,120
Speaker 1: like number three targets on teams here. Yeah. Yeah. Eighty

344
00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 1: three Anthony Richardson. That's QB twelve. Oh I if him higher,

345
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,440
Speaker 1: Actually I don't know if he can finish a game.

346
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:08,960
Speaker 1: Eighty four is Dallas Goddard.

347
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 2: That's fine.

348
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,720
Speaker 1: Eighty five is Evan Ingram. He had a really good

349
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 1: year he did. Eighty six is Brian Robinson blow. Eighty

350
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:23,000
Speaker 1: seven is the ghost of Austin Ekolar.

351
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:25,680
Speaker 2: Oh, he's been a shell of him so they can't

352
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:27,800
Speaker 2: play anymore. No, I don't think he'll be a Charger

353
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 2: either for better or worse.

354
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 1: Eighty eight is t Higgins. I would have him much higher.

355
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 2: I would have him higher too, yeah, no matter what

356
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 2: his situation is. I mean he was injured a lot

357
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 2: this year.

358
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,280
Speaker 1: Eighty nine is Deontay Johnson. That's our first Steeler is

359
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:41,680
Speaker 1: number eighty nine on there. He wouldn't be my first Steeler,

360
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 1: wouldn't be mine either, Yeah, and I like Deontay. Ninety

361
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 1: is Jackson Smith and Jigba had a Lockett lockout. That

362
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 1: probably true. Yeah, yeah. Ninety one is David and Joke

363
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,160
Speaker 1: who is tight end ten? I totally get that. Yeah.

364
00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 1: Ninety two is Kyler Murray.

365
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,720
Speaker 2: Maybe have him higher, especially if Harrison Junior ends up there.

366
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, right like that right? Uh. Ninety three is Trevor

367
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:07,800
Speaker 1: Lawrence is QB fourteen hasn't.

368
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 2: Been great for him, but now he's going to be

369
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:12,560
Speaker 2: in the borderline QB one Neighborhood.

370
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:17,000
Speaker 1: Ninety four JK. Dobbins, he may never play, he may

371
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:18,760
Speaker 1: never play. Himan chobb shouldn't be on a list. No,

372
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:20,640
Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I would to put either for him but no,

373
00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 1: only the ones should be on a list. Ninety five

374
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 1: Traveon Henderson is RB thirty.

375
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:28,400
Speaker 2: Oh he's a HIGHO state guy people might not know,

376
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:29,360
Speaker 2: but okay.

377
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 1: Ninety six Jalen Warren.

378
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,000
Speaker 2: I'm fine with him being in the top one hundred. Yeah,

379
00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 2: would you have him over Nausey? I could see both

380
00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:41,760
Speaker 2: bass close, really close. He catches a lot of balls.

381
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,520
Speaker 1: Ninety seven is Nausey Harris. So yeah, okay, at least

382
00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 1: a little copra right next to each other. They should

383
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:50,840
Speaker 1: be higher than that though. Pickens is the one. Brian Robinson, Yeah,

384
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:52,320
Speaker 1: they're He's not even close.

385
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:54,000
Speaker 2: He may not be the starter next week, right.

386
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 1: Uh. Ninety eight is Malik Neighbors. That's wide receiver forty two.

387
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 2: He's a rookie, probably gonna be the second rough Aboard.

388
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:05,679
Speaker 1: Ninety nine is Romeo Duze and Doozy a wide receiver

389
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:08,400
Speaker 1: forty three. It's an awesome receiver class. And then one

390
00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:11,679
Speaker 1: hundred is brock Bauers as tight end eleven. That's your

391
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 1: that's his top one hundred.

392
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:15,359
Speaker 2: I would have ignored the rookies. I mean, I commend

393
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 2: him for putting them in there. I don't know why

394
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,120
Speaker 2: Pickens is not listed.

395
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:21,600
Speaker 1: He's got eleven hundred yards.

396
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:25,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he scores. He's tydamic. He's the top,

397
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:27,399
Speaker 2: top option. I'm scanning teams.

398
00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 1: I get it if you say, well, he doesn't catch

399
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:32,480
Speaker 1: enough passes, but you got Mike Williams on there. You're

400
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:33,400
Speaker 1: almost the same, dude.

401
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 2: You have some similar style guys. Yeah, I mean they

402
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 2: aren't super high volume players.

403
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:41,359
Speaker 1: Is he any different than Calvin Ridley? He's better. Yeah.

404
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,080
Speaker 1: I think he's better. Yeah. I mean that's that's what.

405
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:47,040
Speaker 1: That's who. That's who he is. Mike Williams slash Calvin Ridley.

406
00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:49,400
Speaker 1: That's what kind of receiver he is, A down the field.

407
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:51,879
Speaker 2: I'm scanning the league in my head now thinking of

408
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:55,520
Speaker 2: who else didn't get listed that are obvious dudes, because

409
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:59,280
Speaker 2: if Pickens isn't on, there must be five others.

410
00:17:58,200 --> 00:17:59,600
Speaker 1: That are in the neighborhood.

411
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 2: I'm not coming up with much, but I'm just going

412
00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,240
Speaker 2: receivers across the league of who else are still out there?

413
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:10,359
Speaker 1: Keenan Allen wasn't listed, Yeah, he was, he was.

414
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:11,879
Speaker 2: He was later and I thought, but he was like

415
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 2: fifty or maybe I didn't know what team he's gonna be.

416
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,040
Speaker 1: There is forty one. I missed that.

417
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,160
Speaker 2: Yeah he's but Lockett wasn't.

418
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:25,159
Speaker 1: I understand putting Rashid Rice on there. Yeah, Pickens has

419
00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:28,600
Speaker 1: had the better season. I would have Rice ahead.

420
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:33,160
Speaker 2: They're gonna add somebody, right, they're gonna go get a yeah,

421
00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:36,639
Speaker 2: Calvin of the right and where Michael Pittman ends up

422
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,240
Speaker 2: there or you know some target hog. I think Rice

423
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 2: is a two.

424
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:43,440
Speaker 1: And I I I drafted him or got him this

425
00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:48,240
Speaker 1: year on my team. I like him. But Brandon, should

426
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 1: he be wide receiver twenty No? I don't think so.

427
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:53,399
Speaker 2: I think people look at it like, oh, he's gonna

428
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:56,440
Speaker 2: be the I'm gonna keep drifting and he's gonna take over.

429
00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 1: I don't think he's not even a hunter catch guy. No.

430
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 2: I mean he's also not a big play guy. Yeah,

431
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 2: that's too high for me.

432
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 1: So, like you just went through the season with Smith

433
00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:07,920
Speaker 1: and Waddell.

434
00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 2: Would you take Pickens over those guys?

435
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,560
Speaker 1: I think I would. You know he's going to get

436
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:18,000
Speaker 1: the targets, yeah, I mean he's been more. He's no

437
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 1: different than those guys in many ways. Like they are

438
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:22,879
Speaker 1: all really good players. Yeah, they're all really good players.

439
00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,479
Speaker 1: They have these monster games. Yeah, and then maybe the

440
00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:27,960
Speaker 1: next game, it's, you know, four catches for forty three

441
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,520
Speaker 1: yards or four catches for fifty or whatever. That's what

442
00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:31,400
Speaker 1: they've done this year.

443
00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:34,119
Speaker 2: I mean, it's easy to say this now, but I

444
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:38,520
Speaker 2: bet the Steeler quarterback situations at least more consistent for

445
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 2: seventeen games.

446
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:39,920
Speaker 1: Yeah.

447
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:42,399
Speaker 2: Is it necessarily going to be better for seventeen games.

448
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 2: Maybe not, but I would still bet it will be.

449
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:50,680
Speaker 2: I mean, Kenny or Not or whoever. I didn't think

450
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,479
Speaker 2: Pickens is an immense talent. I mean, of course there

451
00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:57,199
Speaker 2: shouldn't be like guys like Watson or Burke's or some

452
00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 2: of these other high picks that were young that have

453
00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:00,520
Speaker 2: just been too ball at all.

454
00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:04,320
Speaker 1: But Pickens, He's got a thousand yards. He's got like

455
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:06,320
Speaker 1: also one of the most routes run in the league.

456
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 2: He's out there all the time. He's not a part

457
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 2: time player. You know, Jayden Reid and those guys, I mean,

458
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 2: they're not always out there.

459
00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, anyways, that's fun. I mean, I understand, Hey, we

460
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:17,600
Speaker 1: could sit here and pack the whole thing. That's a

461
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 1: tough tough it really is. But that's Jeff Ratcliffe's early

462
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:27,160
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four Fantasy football rankings on the FTN fantasy.

463
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 1: That's going to do it.

464
00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:29,680
Speaker 2: And I'm not getting them a hard time. But when

465
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:32,600
Speaker 2: it's all said and done, all the second and third

466
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 2: round rookie running backs will be super They'll go much

467
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:37,920

00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:16,200
Speaker 1: on NFL dot com. This is done by Nick shook

480
00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 1: Ok and I thought we'd take a look at that

481
00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 1: and see after two games, where's Mason Rudolph slot in

482
00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:23,000
Speaker 1: on it?

483
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:26,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I assume he ranks thirty two of them? Whoever's

484
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:29,520
Speaker 2: going to start this week? For better or worse. And

485
00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 2: I wonder like this conversation is a little different to

486
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 2: me than power ranks, Like if I were doing it,

487
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:38,159
Speaker 2: I don't know how I could ever take my homes

488
00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:40,439
Speaker 2: away from one. But has he been the best quarterback

489
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:41,120
Speaker 2: in the league this year?

490
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 1: No? You know, Yeah, so I'm curious how we go

491
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 1: how ward approach he takes. So at number thirty two

492
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:48,480
Speaker 1: he has Jaron Hall with the Vikings.

493
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 2: Well he started Vikings quarterback here.

494
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:53,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, it doesn't matter who it is. Yeah, they don't

495
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:58,080
Speaker 1: have one at thirty one down two spots is Eastern stick.

496
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:03,440
Speaker 2: Okay, he's at a moment here there, but.

497
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean four games, he's completing sixty five point

498
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,880
Speaker 1: four percent of his passes, eight hundred and seventy one yards,

499
00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 1: three touchdowns, one interceptions, fumbled four times as Yeah, it's

500
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:14,920
Speaker 1: been far from great to be honest for I mean

501
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:18,439
Speaker 1: to fair to him, he's playing their top to receive

502
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 1: anybody two receivers haven't played himself.

503
00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:23,560
Speaker 2: Like I think there. I don't know who's going to

504
00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:25,560
Speaker 2: in charge of the team next year. But as much

505
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 2: as you're paying Herbert, I'm happy with him.

506
00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:29,600
Speaker 1: But that you found out some things about him, Yeah,

507
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:33,800
Speaker 1: and it's not all bad. Yeah, at thirty on rank

508
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:36,720
Speaker 1: last week, as Will Levis, he's not going to play.

509
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:39,240
Speaker 1: He's not going to play this week. I thought Tannehill

510
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,879
Speaker 1: was definitely starting. Yeah, Tannehill is going to be played

511
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:45,479
Speaker 1: this week. But nine games this year for Levis, uh

512
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:49,879
Speaker 1: fifty eight point four percent completion percentage, eighteen hundred passing yards,

513
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:54,359
Speaker 1: seven point one yards per pass attempt. Oh, he's aggressive.

514
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:59,200
Speaker 1: Eight touchdown passes, four interceptions, one rushing touchdown, seven fumbles.

515
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:01,199
Speaker 2: That's when being risky too, you have to clean up

516
00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:04,240
Speaker 2: so real quick. I would I think he's going to

517
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:05,240
Speaker 2: be their opening day start.

518
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:07,280
Speaker 1: I think two yes year. I think they'll be happy

519
00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:07,520
Speaker 1: with that.

520
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 2: I'd say, are you happy with that?

521
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,120
Speaker 1: Though? I think they will be because I think they'll

522
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:12,439
Speaker 1: feel like he'll take a step.

523
00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:14,800
Speaker 2: Like if I were them, I would take the same

524
00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:17,720
Speaker 2: approach and draft o line, you know, and make.

525
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 1: His life easier. They'd get him another receiver too.

526
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:21,439
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, but I mean a year from now,

527
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:23,480
Speaker 2: I might be like, ah, that didn't work, but yeah,

528
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:24,560
Speaker 2: it would give him a whole year.

529
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:28,520
Speaker 1: At twenty on that down four spots is Taylor Heineke,

530
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 1: Like I would.

531
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:33,159
Speaker 2: Have Levis ahead of Heineke and what's his face in

532
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:35,280
Speaker 2: uh Vegas?

533
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:38,399
Speaker 1: I mean like seven fumbles in nine games. It was

534
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 1: a lot for Levis. Yeah, oh yeah, he puts the

535
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 1: ball in harms with all security. It's horrible. Yeah, it

536
00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:45,440
Speaker 1: might always be. And you know for a guy like Heinekey,

537
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 1: he's fumbled once at five games like that matters. Yeah,

538
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,919
Speaker 1: but I mean he's a backup. He's a backup. Yeah.

539
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:56,040
Speaker 1: At twenty eight down six spots, Bryce Young, he.

540
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:57,679
Speaker 2: Was pretty bad this past week. He had like a

541
00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:00,439
Speaker 2: two game stretcher. He starting to kind of turn the corner.

542
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:03,960
Speaker 1: He's going to be the quarterback he's ten times this year.

543
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:07,159
Speaker 1: That doesn't surprise Hyeah. His size is a problem, Like

544
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 1: he gets beat up at twenty six down six spots.

545
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 1: Bailey's appy. It'd be lower for me too.

546
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:17,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I'm not sure I play against Bailey's

547
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:19,119
Speaker 2: appy than Young or Levis.

548
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:21,000
Speaker 1: He'll be a backup somewhere in the league next.

549
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:22,600
Speaker 2: Sever Yeah, forever, he's earned that.

550
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:28,960
Speaker 1: At twenty six unranked last week he moves in here. CJ. Bethard,

551
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:31,800
Speaker 1: he'd be lowering that too. Yeah, I mean he's right there.

552
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:33,720
Speaker 1: I hope you get to play against be I.

553
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,359
Speaker 2: Mean they beat the they didn't even play well against

554
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:37,280
Speaker 2: the Panthers in one.

555
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:42,280
Speaker 1: Yeah. At twenty five, Trevor Simeon.

556
00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 2: Okay, I mean like Heinecke's better than Simeon. These lifetime

557
00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:48,040
Speaker 2: backup types are harder.

558
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:52,240
Speaker 1: Simeon has played in four games this year. Okay, He's

559
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 1: thrown for six hundred and fifty four yards four point

560
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:56,640
Speaker 1: nine yards per past at ten four point.

561
00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 2: Nine, So he's dumping at the breeze.

562
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:00,399
Speaker 1: Hall tellhch isn't a bad idea, right? I mean I

563
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:03,680
Speaker 1: understand that he's throwing two touchdowns, he's throwing four interceptions,

564
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,960
Speaker 1: and he's fumbled five times. He's like, he.

565
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:09,000
Speaker 2: May not be a number two when the season opens

566
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:10,120
Speaker 2: next year. He wasn't this year.

567
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, he wasn't. He wasn't. Okay at twenty four up

568
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:20,240
Speaker 1: two spots, Sam Holl okay, I guess nineteen interceptions this

569
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 1: year and eighty four million sacks. Oh, he's just he's

570
00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 1: not good.

571
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,720
Speaker 2: He's a backup two. I mean I think he's Ryan Fitzpatrick. Yeah,

572
00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:28,800
Speaker 2: bring a spark off the bench.

573
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:35,200
Speaker 1: Twenty three is Jared Stidham, who knows he was fine?

574
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:35,880
Speaker 1: I mean it was fine.

575
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:38,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, we know a little bit about him before his

576
00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:40,159
Speaker 2: Denver days, but there's not a lot to go off of.

577
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:42,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, he's not They can't go in the

578
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:44,240
Speaker 1: next year with Jared Stidham as they're starting, could be

579
00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:47,040
Speaker 1: blown away, but they're They're in a situation where you're

580
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:50,480
Speaker 1: stuck paying Russell Wilson thirty million dollars thirty plus years.

581
00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:53,160
Speaker 1: I think the next two years you can't go out.

582
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:55,119
Speaker 1: You may be going out and trying to get a

583
00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:57,159
Speaker 1: mac Jones or someone like that.

584
00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:59,159
Speaker 2: At least try to get a Brissette. Yeah, I mean,

585
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:00,639
Speaker 2: and those guys are better and Stidham to.

586
00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:06,280
Speaker 1: Me, yeah, uh. At twenty two up five spots, Aiden O'Connell.

587
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:07,879
Speaker 2: I think that's insane. I think he's come back to

588
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,920
Speaker 2: earth and is bad. Like I'm not sure he's even

589
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:11,200
Speaker 2: a two.

590
00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:14,160
Speaker 1: They all played the Colts last week. They did, they did.

591
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 2: Their offense has been like the worst in the league

592
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:19,280
Speaker 2: though before that for five or six weeks.

593
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:21,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know that he should be a two.

594
00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:26,040
Speaker 1: At twenty one down two spots is Jake Browning.

595
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:29,960
Speaker 2: I think that's fair for him. He's been a pleasant surprise.

596
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 2: They've done some good things around him. I mean, I

597
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,240
Speaker 2: still think like a Levis is harder to play against

598
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:36,920
Speaker 2: a lot of these dudes.

599
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:40,000
Speaker 1: I know the Browns are resting guys this week. Oh yeah,

600
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,119
Speaker 1: I would have taken the Bengals over them even if

601
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 1: they weren't.

602
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:47,280
Speaker 2: So what Browns quarterback shouldn't Drisco will be thirty two then, yeah,

603
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:48,480
Speaker 2: I mean he's fifty.

604
00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:51,600
Speaker 1: He's gonna start. Yeah, someone, I mean that makes for

605
00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:55,400
Speaker 1: better article. Obviously, twenty is Gardner Minshew.

606
00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:59,680
Speaker 2: Like, I guess along those lines, you can't have huntly

607
00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:01,720
Speaker 2: on here, No, I mean if if you're just resting,

608
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:07,520
Speaker 2: that's not the same. Okay, he's been fine, yeah, better

609
00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:10,119
Speaker 2: than expected, I guess for that long a stretch.

610
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:14,080
Speaker 1: Fifteen touchdown passes, nine interceptions, eight fumbles in fifteen games.

611
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,920
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm not sure you've named a good quarterback yet.

612
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:17,800
Speaker 1: It's kind of who he is.

613
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:19,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, and always will be.

614
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:22,800
Speaker 1: At nineteen is Tyrod Taylor?

615
00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:27,440
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm okay with that. Like, I think he's probably

616
00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:29,359
Speaker 2: a top forty quarterback.

617
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,960
Speaker 1: At eighteen up five spots. Is Mason Rudolph.

618
00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:36,879
Speaker 2: He's played, He's outplayed all those guys though. He's a

619
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:39,359
Speaker 2: million Yeah, but you can't just throw him off the top.

620
00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:40,679
Speaker 1: No, I understand that.

621
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:42,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I'm fine, Fine, that's fair.

622
00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,040
Speaker 1: We think about this when we did this a few

623
00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:47,719
Speaker 1: years ago, maybe last year or two years ago, and

624
00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:50,040
Speaker 1: they put every quarterback on the list who had played

625
00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:53,679
Speaker 1: in a game this year. If you remember, Rudolph was

626
00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:57,560
Speaker 1: like last seventy two and a seventy two or something

627
00:27:57,600 --> 00:28:00,680
Speaker 1: like that in sane. Yeah. Yeah, so he is kind

628
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:03,280
Speaker 1: of rebuilding his reputation.

629
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 2: I guess nationally had two really really good games.

630
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:10,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, at seventeen down three spots is Gino Smith? I

631
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:11,640
Speaker 1: thought Gino Smith.

632
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:13,760
Speaker 2: Played well last I thought he played extremely well. He'd

633
00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:16,639
Speaker 2: be higher for me. He he proved some things to

634
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:19,359
Speaker 2: me last week. Yeah, he was under pressure fifty percent

635
00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:21,000
Speaker 2: of his snaps. I said that this morning.

636
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:23,679
Speaker 1: Pressure, right, and he stepped out of it and then

637
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:27,520
Speaker 1: navigated all. See it was defensive front didn't give him problems.

638
00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:31,199
Speaker 1: It did, it did, Just the numbers don't reflect it. Uh,

639
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:35,400
Speaker 1: it's sixteen up a spot. Is Derek Carr Gino's better

640
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:42,280
Speaker 1: than car? Yeah? Maybe Derek Carr ends up in Denver. Hmm.

641
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:49,280
Speaker 1: I don't know. If Peyton had won him.

642
00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 2: Maybe not, you know, Peyton's going to be real picky

643
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:51,800
Speaker 2: about who he marries himself to.

644
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:55,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, after well they're still married to Ross. You're going

645
00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:58,200
Speaker 1: through a messy bo Yeah, the paid alimony and at

646
00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:01,080
Speaker 1: fifteen up three spots as Kyler, I.

647
00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,120
Speaker 2: May even be higher on him than that. He's hard

648
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:04,840
Speaker 2: to play against. I mean, he's been up and down,

649
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 2: but he has seven fumbles. I know, been some bad issue, Yeah.

650
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,200
Speaker 1: But they did. He played well against the Eagles. There's

651
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:13,080
Speaker 1: no nothing about that. Fourteen.

652
00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:15,280
Speaker 2: Do you think he's your starter next year? Yeah? I

653
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 2: don't think they're gon end up with the top two picks,

654
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 2: so I think you will. You'll probably throwing to Lake Harrison.

655
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:26,120
Speaker 1: At fourteen, down eight spots. Jalen hurts, Wow, But I

656
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,840
Speaker 1: think that's deserve it. That's where he's playing at right now.

657
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:32,000
Speaker 1: Sixteen games. The numbers don't look too bad until you

658
00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:35,840
Speaker 1: look into the back numbers. Sixteen games, sixty six percent

659
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:39,240
Speaker 1: completion percentage, thirty thirty eight hundred passing yards, like all

660
00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:42,520
Speaker 1: that seven point three yards per attempt? You like that? Sure,

661
00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:46,000
Speaker 1: twenty three passing touchdowns. That's down from last year, down

662
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:51,800
Speaker 1: fourteen interceptions, six hundred and one rushing yards, fifteen touchdowns again,

663
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:53,000
Speaker 1: those are good. Yeah.

664
00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:57,720
Speaker 2: Nine fumbles Yeah, So I think it was Greg Cosel,

665
00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:00,680
Speaker 2: but I can't remember, but Greg's super dowed with the Eagles.

666
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 2: But it was some tape guru guy that I really

667
00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:07,040
Speaker 2: respect and basically said, really, the only quarterback in recent

668
00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:11,040
Speaker 2: memory to be very successful without throwing over the middle

669
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:14,000
Speaker 2: of the field with success is him. He still doesn't

670
00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:16,680
Speaker 2: hardly attempts any balls between the numbers still, yeah, you know,

671
00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 2: like and people know it.

672
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:19,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, people have started to kind of figure some of

673
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 1: that stuff out. And their defense isn't good enough.

674
00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:24,120
Speaker 2: That's a night that's the other part they can't run on.

675
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,479
Speaker 2: And so he tried to do too much. This is

676
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:30,120
Speaker 2: too early to say this, but if you gave Eagles

677
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:33,280
Speaker 2: ownership in front off office truth serum, would you say

678
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 2: you shouldn't have signed him? I mean, I think it's time.

679
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:39,720
Speaker 1: Like they may be in the same situation they were

680
00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:42,120
Speaker 1: with Wentz. We're two years from now, they're looking for

681
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:43,760
Speaker 1: next year. They're looking for another.

682
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 2: Quarterback again, inconspicuously take a second round guy, Yeah, yeah.

683
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,560
Speaker 1: Trade them to the Colts. You know. Thirteen is justin

684
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 1: fields fields over hurts. He's had a better year, but

685
00:30:57,160 --> 00:31:01,880
Speaker 1: Fields over Murray. Nah, I can't go there.

686
00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:04,840
Speaker 2: I would rather Coyle, I'd rather I think Kyler's better. Yeah,

687
00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:07,120
Speaker 2: the field still has some issues holding the ball. He's

688
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 2: getting better.

689
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:10,240
Speaker 1: He's fumbled ten times this year in the game bad stuff,

690
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:13,840
Speaker 1: nine interceptions. I mean he's he's still a little Yeah,

691
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:18,400
Speaker 1: but he's like a rocket ship when he runs. Computers

692
00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 1: locked up here, wheels are spinning, wheels are spinning. Oh no,

693
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,040
Speaker 1: that's not good. What is going on here with this anyway?

694
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:28,240
Speaker 1: So I'm a Fields believer? No, I I am too.

695
00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:29,200
Speaker 1: I think he's a good player.

696
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:31,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think definitely could be a starter somewhere next year.

697
00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:35,960
Speaker 1: This is completely locked up on me here. What is

698
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:39,480
Speaker 1: going on? What number is he? He is number thirteen,

699
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:43,280
Speaker 1: We can guess. We can make up our twelve. So

700
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:46,960
Speaker 1: if that's it, that's it. So who's who I'm guessing?

701
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 1: He can't have Flacco much higher than this. I know.

702
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:53,720
Speaker 1: It's a great story and everything. Either, he's still way

703
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:56,400
Speaker 1: too turnover prone himself. He takes a ton of sacks.

704
00:31:56,480 --> 00:32:00,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, he has a million near interceptions, yeah and put

705
00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 2: them crazy. But boy, he's made some throws and it's

706
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:09,360
Speaker 2: a wonderful story. But I worry for his sake. He's

707
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 2: going to turn into a pumpkin in the playoffs and

708
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:14,480
Speaker 2: have four turnovers and it's gonna burn.

709
00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:16,600
Speaker 1: It's gonna burn him at some point. They've changed the

710
00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:20,120
Speaker 1: way that they play offense. They're more of a throwing team. Now.

711
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:22,920
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Well the running game isn't very good anymore.

712
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:26,240
Speaker 2: I mean right, I mean it's been by necessity, and

713
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:29,360
Speaker 2: he's been doing a lot of improv stuff with bad tackles, which.

714
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:32,360
Speaker 1: Isn't his fault. Yeah, okay, so we got it. So

715
00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:36,080
Speaker 1: Twelve is Baker Mayfield down four spots. He's earned that

716
00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:38,280
Speaker 1: this year, didn't He didn't play well last week though

717
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:39,000
Speaker 1: he was off.

718
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:40,920
Speaker 2: I'd still rute to play against him than hurts. Yeah,

719
00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:42,360
Speaker 2: even if he's had a better year.

720
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:44,240
Speaker 1: Eleven is Jordan Love.

721
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:46,400
Speaker 2: I might even keep moving him up.

722
00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:48,520
Speaker 1: He's got thirty touchdown passes. Ye.

723
00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:52,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, and the youngest group in the league.

724
00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:54,080
Speaker 1: Too, receivers coming in and out like crazy too.

725
00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:57,240
Speaker 2: He's been a success story. He's gonna make some money.

726
00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:02,160
Speaker 1: Wow. Ten is Patrick Mahomes. No, I'm sorry, man, I

727
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:03,280
Speaker 1: mean yes.

728
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:08,080
Speaker 2: It's the most down point of his career and was

729
00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:09,440
Speaker 2: even named the Pro bowler this year.

730
00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:11,160
Speaker 1: I don't. I didn't even look at the list they

731
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:13,680
Speaker 1: named him yesterday. I know Josh, I know Alan did.

732
00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:14,600
Speaker 1: Allen didn't make.

733
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 2: It to made it over Allen. Yeah, but that's still

734
00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 2: too low.

735
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:21,320
Speaker 1: That's too low. One. Nine is c J. Stroud.

736
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:23,520
Speaker 2: I think he's a top ten quarterback already.

737
00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:25,640
Speaker 1: Not ahead of Patrick Mahomes, No, but I think he's

738
00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:28,200
Speaker 1: top ten guy. And he's better than Baker and Fields

739
00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:30,240
Speaker 1: and you know. Yeah. Eight is brock Party.

740
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:33,240
Speaker 2: I'm there. I don't think that's crazy.

741
00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:40,560
Speaker 1: Seven is Joe Flacco. That's nuts too high. In five games, Well,

742
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:42,880
Speaker 1: you shouldn't be ahead of the homes. In five games,

743
00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:46,360
Speaker 1: he's completing sixty point three percent of his passes for

744
00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:49,520
Speaker 1: six low, which is low. It's low. Now he has

745
00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:52,320
Speaker 1: sixteen hundred and sixteen passing yards, which is okay, I

746
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:53,680
Speaker 1: get it. That's fantastic.

747
00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:55,520
Speaker 2: Amazing plays and some big plays.

748
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, seven point nine yards per past attempt, which is awesome.

749
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 1: Third team touchdown passes in five games. That's fantastic. But

750
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:06,240
Speaker 1: you can overlook the fact that he's thrown eight interceptions

751
00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:10,200
Speaker 1: and he's fumbled four times. He has twelve turnover worthy

752
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:13,359
Speaker 1: plays in five games. That's even a turnover worthy that's

753
00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:15,480
Speaker 1: going to bite them in the butt. He has twelve

754
00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:18,080
Speaker 1: turnovers in five games. With the fun of the fumbles,

755
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:19,759
Speaker 1: I think, I don't know if they count just the

756
00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:21,960
Speaker 1: fumbles or fumbles recovered by the other team. So he's

757
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:23,000
Speaker 1: putting the ball on the ground.

758
00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:25,279
Speaker 2: Now, I'm talking about all the passes he's gotten away

759
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:27,720
Speaker 2: with that should have been interceptions, and the sacks he takes,

760
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:28,799
Speaker 2: and there's a.

761
00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:33,560
Speaker 1: Lot of bad So what number was he? Seven? Too high?

762
00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:36,160
Speaker 1: I had a Patrick Mahomes. It's only five games too,

763
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:38,719
Speaker 1: it's only five games. He's they will lose in the

764
00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:41,120
Speaker 1: playoffs because of Joe Flacco.

765
00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:45,600
Speaker 2: I definitely see a day where Wow, Browns turned it

766
00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:48,440
Speaker 2: all over four times. Yeah, defense couldn't overcome.

767
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,600
Speaker 1: It's because their defense has not been as good on

768
00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:53,600
Speaker 1: the road and that's where they're going to have to

769
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:56,239
Speaker 1: play the playoff games. And I still think it's a

770
00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:58,560
Speaker 1: good defense. I think it's a good defense. It's not

771
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:02,719
Speaker 1: it's not a great defense on the road. So he's

772
00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:04,320
Speaker 1: seven six is Jared Goff?

773
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,160
Speaker 2: I'm okay with that. I mean, I'm gonna stop talking

774
00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:08,760
Speaker 2: about Mahomes.

775
00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:09,319
Speaker 1: Mahomes veteran.

776
00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:12,839
Speaker 2: All these guys are, of course, but Goff's the top

777
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:15,920
Speaker 2: is golf, a top ten quarterback the way he's played

778
00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:19,600
Speaker 2: this year. Yeah, I mean maybe if we don't include Rogers, Burroughs,

779
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:23,360
Speaker 2: Herbert some of the guys that are out. But I

780
00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:27,120
Speaker 2: think he's eight to twelve on the planet something like that.

781
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:32,640
Speaker 1: Once again, Yeah, this is killing my We have five

782
00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:35,399
Speaker 1: more to pick from. Yeah, I know, I know five is.

783
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:38,360
Speaker 2: One's gonna be Allen or one of the one of them.

784
00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:43,160
Speaker 1: Is gonna be I know Stafford is five? Okay? Which everyone?

785
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 1: Which is? Which is deserved? Ok? Yeah, we still have

786
00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:49,120
Speaker 1: Tua left. We still have Allen that I can't have

787
00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:50,120
Speaker 1: two of that high.

788
00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:53,719
Speaker 2: I can't either. We still have Lamar, he's got two.

789
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:57,040
Speaker 1: Here we go. This is things being again being freaky here.

790
00:35:57,320 --> 00:36:01,719
Speaker 1: So he's got still have Lawrence Stafford five, No, because

791
00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:06,200
Speaker 1: he had the backup. Oh yeah, Okay, Stafford is five,

792
00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:12,759
Speaker 1: Allen is four, Tua is three, Dak Prescott Dak Okay two,

793
00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:15,680
Speaker 1: and Lamar Jackson is one. I get that.

794
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:18,640
Speaker 2: I mean, if you're power ranking them right now, Lamar

795
00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 2: is gonna win the MVP and he should be one.

796
00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:25,440
Speaker 2: That doesn't mean he's better than Mahomes, But I have

797
00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:28,360
Speaker 2: no problem with that. Dak is in the MVP conversation.

798
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:30,919
Speaker 1: I have no problem with Dak. Dak Prescott has cleaned

799
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:33,560
Speaker 1: up his fumbling. Yes, he's only got four this year. Yeah,

800
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 1: every other year he's had twelve fourteen. I thrown eight.

801
00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:39,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, you'll take twelve turnovers from him.

802
00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:43,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's forty. He's completing sixty eight percent of his passes,

803
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,239
Speaker 1: thirty two touchdown grasses, great yere.

804
00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:49,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, actually the offense coordinator change has been good for him.

805
00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:52,719
Speaker 2: The head coach taken over instead of what's his face

806
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:53,680
Speaker 2: the ball?

807
00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:57,960
Speaker 1: So yeah, just throw it every time, Dak. Yeah that interesting.

808
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,000
Speaker 1: Two is too high. Two is way too high.

809
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:02,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean again, we shouldnt even talk about my homes.

810
00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:06,000
Speaker 2: But like I might have Golf over to. Yeah, yeah,

811
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:07,520
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. Yeah, both are in really

812
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:10,360
Speaker 2: good situations, and they're both kind of fair weather quarterbacks.

813
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:12,319
Speaker 1: But I might have Stafford over too. I definitely have

814
00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:15,560
Speaker 1: nine close. Yeah, I mean nine and close. But that

815
00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:19,640
Speaker 1: is That's Nick Shook's list on not Bad NFL dot Com.

816
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:22,520
Speaker 1: The bottom twelve are all pretty terrible. Mason Rudolph coming

817
00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:25,680
Speaker 1: into eighteen I'm fine with that though. Yeah, that's how

818
00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:26,080
Speaker 1: he's playing.

819
00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:27,960
Speaker 2: I mean, he's better than the Simeons for sure. Yeah,

820
00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:30,359
Speaker 2: that's how he is about that, and he might be

821
00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:30,759
Speaker 2: moving up.

822
00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:33,560
Speaker 1: He'll be treated better than those guys this offseason.

823
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:36,160
Speaker 2: Yes, I agree. I agree.

824
00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:38,239
Speaker 1: Like for the Steelers to keep him in the off season,

825
00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:39,319
Speaker 1: it's gonna cost them some money.

826
00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:41,799
Speaker 2: It's gonna cost them some money. He's demanded that unless

827
00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:44,520
Speaker 2: he falls on his face on Saturday. Even at that,

828
00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:46,200
Speaker 2: I mean, I mean, he's still gonna get paid. He's

829
00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:48,040
Speaker 2: so gonna be someone's two at the worst.

830
00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:51,920
Speaker 1: Right, He'll get an opportunity somewhere. Yeah, you will. Anyways,

844
00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:35,560
Speaker 1: I speculated what it might be. Yeah, but we heard

845
00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:38,239
Speaker 1: today when we taped our show. Yes, that it's a

846
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:39,320
Speaker 1: signed TJ Watchers.

848
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:42,200
Speaker 1: We have a video with Rob King is probably live.

849
00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:43,640
Speaker 1: Not even looked at that stuff.

850
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:45,640
Speaker 2: Hopefully it's not our last one ever.

851
00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:48,839
Speaker 1: So Matt looking at the uh And you sent me

852
00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:56,120
Speaker 1: this earlier today about our friend. I'm drawing a blank.

853
00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:58,359
Speaker 1: He's afraid. What did I send you today? You sent

854
00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:03,399
Speaker 1: me the pick stuff? Sando Mike Sando, geez oh yeah,

855
00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:05,720
Speaker 1: he had his votes for all the awards.

856
00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:06,000
Speaker 2: Yeah.

857
00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:08,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's my problem with it. So there's no vote.

858
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:11,880
Speaker 1: Nobody in Pittsburgh has a vote. Yeah, that's kind of goofy.

859
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:16,040
Speaker 1: So this is who Sando was picking for m VPS,

860
00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:18,799
Speaker 1: picking Lamar. I think Lamar's as a done deal. Lamar

861
00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:20,040
Speaker 1: Jackson will be the league.

862
00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:21,359
Speaker 2: Can't hurt himself at this point.

863
00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:24,600
Speaker 1: He's done Coach of the Year, he says, he's leaning

864
00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:26,799
Speaker 1: towards the Meco Ryans. I can't that's a good pick.

865
00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:27,640
Speaker 1: I can't argue with that.

866
00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:29,200
Speaker 2: There's some strong cases around the league.

867
00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:31,680
Speaker 1: I know Stefanski and Cleveland's Gonna Get is getting a

868
00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:32,120
Speaker 1: lot of.

869
00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:34,520
Speaker 2: I think he's the favorite in Vegas right this second.

870
00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:37,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, Sean McVay has done a great shot. So that's

871
00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:39,360
Speaker 1: the third on my list. Yeah, we talked about it

872
00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:43,239
Speaker 1: today at lunch. I think Harbaugh deserves some credit this year.

873
00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:47,080
Speaker 2: Pretty strong vote, Like you're wiping the floor with the

874
00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 2: best teams in the league. Yeah, you've had your share

875
00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:51,960
Speaker 2: of injuries too. I mean, just because you're already considered

876
00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:53,480
Speaker 2: a great coach shouldn't be held against you.

877
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:55,680
Speaker 1: Should not be And I didn't think they would be

878
00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:59,960
Speaker 1: as good as they are either. At best. Most people

879
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:03,160
Speaker 1: picked them for second in the division, and they're just

880
00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:05,839
Speaker 1: running away with it. Yeah, run And they've ran run

881
00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:08,520
Speaker 1: away with the top seed in the AFC. Yeah, in

882
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:12,560
Speaker 1: addition to beating the teams that they you know, just smashing.

883
00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:14,120
Speaker 2: Them, smashing them. I mean that's the thing. Is like

884
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:17,200
Speaker 2: doing my stat pack and stuff, and this week was

885
00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:20,040
Speaker 2: goofy because you knew it's not the normal Ravens version.

886
00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:22,279
Speaker 2: But I was even more impressed with some of the

887
00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:24,440
Speaker 2: stuff you dig up, like, oh, they're personal league in

888
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:26,160
Speaker 2: this and their second league in this, and you know

889
00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:31,040
Speaker 2: they're first in offense, second in defense or vice versa.

890
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:34,120
Speaker 2: No number one seed has even done that in the

891
00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:36,560
Speaker 2: last like ten years or something crazy. I mean, like

892
00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:40,799
Speaker 2: they're I know, like the DVOA people think they're one

893
00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:42,480
Speaker 2: of the best teams in the last ten years or so.

894
00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:44,960
Speaker 1: And just for just for the point that did you

895
00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:49,000
Speaker 1: decided to make the change at offensive coordinator and play

896
00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:50,720
Speaker 1: differently than you had been playing.

897
00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:53,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's gutsy. I mean, it's not quite there with

898
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:55,600
Speaker 2: I'm gonna bench Flacco for Lamar. I mean, that was

899
00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:58,480
Speaker 2: a gutsy Harbaugh move. So how about this one? I mean,

900
00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:04,560
Speaker 2: the Baltimore's offense is second in points per game, So

901
00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:07,480
Speaker 2: they couldn't play against themselves, right, But they did play

902
00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:10,280
Speaker 2: against the first place team, the Dolphins, the third place

903
00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:14,400
Speaker 2: team the Niners offensively, and the fifth place team the Lions.

904
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:17,759
Speaker 2: In those three games, they won one hundred and twenty

905
00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:20,600
Speaker 2: seven to forty four. Yeah, you know, like we can

906
00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:23,319
Speaker 2: talk about the doll or the Dolphins and Cowboys. Well,

907
00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:25,080
Speaker 2: where's your signature win these guys.

908
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:26,840
Speaker 1: A bunch of the tone them. Yeah, they get a

909
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:29,279
Speaker 1: bunch of them, So that's where my vote would go.

910
00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:30,120
Speaker 1: It's a good one.

911
00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:32,879
Speaker 2: I'm really still strong on McVeigh just because I thought

912
00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:33,920
Speaker 2: they might pick in the top.

913
00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:38,000
Speaker 1: Five assistant coach of the year. Uh, there's no betting

914
00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:41,040
Speaker 1: odds for this or anything like that. He's picking Mike

915
00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:46,440
Speaker 1: McDonald face over Jim Schwartz. Okay. Uh he said, you know,

916
00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:50,840
Speaker 1: you look at Bobby Slowick with the Texans, Todd Monkin

917
00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:53,520
Speaker 1: with with the Rams as well, both Ravens guys Steve

918
00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:58,800
Speaker 1: Spagnola and Kansas City their defensive coordinator. Yeah, Ravens defensive

919
00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:00,720
Speaker 1: coordinator Patrick Graham. I don't know if I can go there.

920
00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:04,120
Speaker 1: Raiders defends why. I mean, they've been much better lately,

921
00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:07,520
Speaker 1: but it's not as good as Donald or Falcons defensive

922
00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:09,760
Speaker 1: coordinator Ryan Nielson. I can't put those.

923
00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:12,919
Speaker 2: Guys and their defenses both got better, But I would

924
00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:15,759
Speaker 2: take the Ravens defensive coordinator comeback player.

925
00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:18,319
Speaker 1: Of the year. I have a problem. There was no

926
00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:21,000
Speaker 1: problem with it, like this was done, a done deal

927
00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:24,640
Speaker 1: before the season even started. He's voting Damar Hanlin he's

928
00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:26,319
Speaker 1: barely played, but I.

929
00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:28,239
Speaker 2: Think he's two tackles this year. Yeah, I with all

930
00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:33,319
Speaker 2: due respect, I would pick Flacco. There's some other I

931
00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:35,239
Speaker 2: mean you can I mean there's other guys that play.

932
00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:37,759
Speaker 1: You could say Baker Mayfield exactly would be a strong

933
00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:40,240
Speaker 1: I mean there's some guys out there that that either

934
00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:41,000
Speaker 1: were awful.

935
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:44,040
Speaker 2: I mean there were injury guys last year. They came

936
00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:46,879
Speaker 2: back and had nice seasons. I get the Hamlin thing.

937
00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 1: I mean, if we had four more games left in

938
00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:53,320
Speaker 1: this season, Mason Rudolph would deserve Yeah.

939
00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:57,360
Speaker 2: Exactly right, I mean, get the Hamlin. He's two tackles,

940
00:42:57,400 --> 00:42:57,920
Speaker 2: two tackles.

941
00:42:58,040 --> 00:43:01,279
Speaker 1: It's a great story. He's in Pittsburgh guy. All that

942
00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:03,960
Speaker 1: stuff was fantastic. But he's played one hundred and eleven

943
00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:04,680
Speaker 1: snaps this year.

944
00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:06,960
Speaker 2: So I'm not blameing Hamlin. It's just kind of a

945
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:10,239
Speaker 2: dumb award. Yeah, I don't love the award yet, or

946
00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:11,520
Speaker 2: you know, like I don't love the.

947
00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:16,120
Speaker 1: Award Offensive Player of the Year. He easily says he's

948
00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:20,319
Speaker 1: leaning towards Christian McCaffrey. His mid season choice was Tyreek Hill.

949
00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:22,480
Speaker 2: I think they're the only two in the battle. Ceedee

950
00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:26,440
Speaker 2: Lam would probably third. Yeah, but he'll missed a game recently.

951
00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:30,040
Speaker 1: Defensive Player of the Year, that's the.

952
00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:31,920
Speaker 2: Only one I read, and I didn't think he really

953
00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:32,840
Speaker 2: made a strong case.

954
00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:35,440
Speaker 1: He didn't. He said the Browns Miles Garrett was my

955
00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:37,800
Speaker 1: choice at mid season, and I'm sticking with him now.

956
00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:41,439
Speaker 1: He's the best player on the best statistical defense. See,

957
00:43:41,440 --> 00:43:44,680
Speaker 1: that's not good enough reason for me. In so many

958
00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:48,400
Speaker 1: of the statistics, Baltimore's defense is better.

959
00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:50,160
Speaker 2: Than Cleveland's and they don't have a candidate. I mean,

960
00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:51,719
Speaker 2: Roque's not even in this conversation.

961
00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:54,200
Speaker 1: Matta Bouquet would be the closest thing that they've got.

962
00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:57,000
Speaker 2: I think they would say Roque's are most important.

963
00:43:57,239 --> 00:44:00,240
Speaker 1: I think they would say that as well. Miles Garrett

964
00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:02,520
Speaker 1: deserve to win Defensive Player of the Year this year.

965
00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:05,120
Speaker 2: I still think Watt's case is stronger and nobody seems

966
00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:05,920
Speaker 2: to recognize it.

967
00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:09,520
Speaker 1: He mentions Max Crosby here as well. Max Crosby's case

968
00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:12,239
Speaker 1: is stronger than that of Miles Garrett. People seated this

969
00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:14,439
Speaker 1: award to Miles Garrett at the beginning of the year

970
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:17,000
Speaker 1: and they've just stuck with it in any time that

971
00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:18,960
Speaker 1: he's made to play. We'll see that's why he's defensive

972
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:20,839
Speaker 1: Player of the Year. That's not the way it works.

973
00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:23,880
Speaker 1: And he's a great player. He's not had a great season.

974
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:27,800
Speaker 1: He is not the best season. No, no, anyways, Yeah,

975
00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:30,839
Speaker 1: offensive rookie, I think I think he is too, and

976
00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:32,280
Speaker 1: I think it's it's going to be a farce.

977
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:36,200
Speaker 2: Maybe if TJ gets two sacks and as a two

978
00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:38,439
Speaker 2: sack lead on the leader, you know, Hendrickson gets nine

979
00:44:38,600 --> 00:44:41,600
Speaker 2: or yeah, somehow he scoops and scores or something.

980
00:44:42,040 --> 00:44:45,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, Offensive Rookie of the Year. He felt like this

981
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:48,799
Speaker 1: was Stroud's to lose. He's not going to pook in

982
00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:49,160
Speaker 1: the Kua.

983
00:44:49,640 --> 00:44:51,400
Speaker 2: I mean those two have like as strongest case as

984
00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:52,440
Speaker 2: anyone I can remember ever.

985
00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:56,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean he is typically the quarterback wins it though, of.

986
00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:59,680
Speaker 2: Course, but Ku has more receiving yards than anyone besides

987
00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:02,960
Speaker 2: someone I never heard of as a rookie in nineteen fifty. Yeah,

988
00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:04,400
Speaker 2: I mean it's a remarkable season.

989
00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:07,719
Speaker 1: And then finally, Defensive Rookie of the Year. He says

990
00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:11,160
Speaker 1: he's leaning towards rams defensive tackle Kobe Turner.

991
00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:14,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I actually saw that and read that one too,

992
00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:16,839
Speaker 2: did some more homework on him. He's having a great year.

993
00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:20,120
Speaker 2: I mean, he's the kind of Jalen Carter. He has

994
00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:22,400
Speaker 2: been certainly lately too. I mean, some of those no

995
00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:25,120
Speaker 2: name Rams defenders have stepped up in a big way.

996
00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:28,799
Speaker 2: He doesn't mentioned Whetherspoon reporter. Frankly, it's a bad year

997
00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:31,320
Speaker 2: and the draft class we kind of knew the defensive

998
00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:35,239
Speaker 2: group wasn't great, but this guy's interesting. Yeah, so he's

999
00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:38,520
Speaker 2: kind of penetrating. Yeah, baby, Aaron Donald type. Yeah, and

1000
00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:40,000
Speaker 2: I'm sure we're playing with Donald.

1001
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:45,959
Speaker 1: Didn't hurt ye on? Yeah. Yeah. Anyways, that's the list

1002
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:49,200
Speaker 1: there for Mike Sando. He works, of course for the

1003
00:45:49,239 --> 00:45:52,120
Speaker 1: athletic Uh. That's going to do it for our show today, Matt,

1004
00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:53,799
