1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:14,360
Speaker 1: Wow, everybody, It's Thursday, February twenty seventh, twenty twenty five.

2
00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:16,960
Speaker 1: Welcome to the NFL Fantasy Football Podcast, where we also

3
00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:19,200
Speaker 1: argue with other podcasters in a coffee shop. It's me

4
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:21,200
Speaker 1: and your man, NAMG Marcus Grand joined by Michael F.

5
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:25,119
Speaker 1: Florio and Lakwan Jones. Do we have to talk about this?

6
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:27,080
Speaker 1: I guess that's I sort of reference it. I guess

7
00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:28,319
Speaker 1: you kind of have to talk about this.

8
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:30,760
Speaker 2: You got to look.

9
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 1: I'm sure if you've been on social media in the

10
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:36,479
Speaker 1: last twenty four hours any part of football, Twitter or

11
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:39,360
Speaker 1: blue Sky or whatever, you have seen the story that

12
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:42,400
Speaker 1: apparently there are some insiders, including one that is a

13
00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 1: coworker and I dare say friend, friend of the program,

14
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 1: friend who apparently had a bit of a kerfuffle at

15
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,640
Speaker 1: a hotel Starbucks in uh in Indianapolis.

16
00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 2: I don't know what you guys have this.

17
00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 1: Florio, you actually are on the Insiders regularly, you are

18
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 1: you are an honorary insider. I don't know if you

19
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:08,680
Speaker 1: have any insights into you know, this story.

20
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 2: I mean, that's kind of a dead period.

21
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 3: I have no insight, but I will say I am

22
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:17,360
Speaker 3: team Insiders all the way. Uh and like I'm not.

23
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:19,959
Speaker 3: I'm the dude. Like if this was on a baseball field,

24
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:21,840
Speaker 3: Let's say like I'm running out of the dugout for

25
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,280
Speaker 3: my boy like that. Yes, I don't care. My teammate

26
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:27,840
Speaker 3: could be right or wrong, but in the moment, I'm

27
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 3: always gonna be the one like running out defending them.

28
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 3: So I'm never gonna start it. I'm never going to

29
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,400
Speaker 3: be involved in something like this myself. But if my

30
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 3: boys are, I got there.

31
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:41,120
Speaker 1: Here, we come running out of the bullpen. You know,

32
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 1: we'll stand there, will look great.

33
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 4: There's only one person to blame for all this, though,

34
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 4: Who's that. It's Matthew Stafford.

35
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 3: Got people want to over the news man. He has

36
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 3: to be held accountable.

37
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 2: So yeah, apparently that's what it is.

38
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 1: It was a disagreement in the reporting over Matthew Stafford

39
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 1: and whether one meeting he had, whether in a whether

40
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 1: it was an official meeting, or whether it was just

41
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 1: happened to be. Hey, two people ran into each other

42
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 1: and they had a quick chat. That's what we're beefing

43
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:12,360
Speaker 1: over right now. This is why I say this, and

44
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 1: I will say this here on an NFL sanctioned broadcast medium.

45
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 2: Every now and then it's fine for us to just STFU.

46
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 2: It's fine. We can just you know, like every now

47
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:22,639
Speaker 2: and then, we just.

48
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:24,120
Speaker 1: Need to take a pause because if this is what

49
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:25,799
Speaker 1: we're scrapping over right now.

50
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:30,520
Speaker 3: Please, I know it's a it's a huge thing in

51
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,359
Speaker 3: the world of insiders and stuff, and I get it,

52
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,799
Speaker 3: but like I'm never like, wow, that story broken by

53
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 3: like you know, breaking news.

54
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 4: It's breaking news, Like I can't believe this, Like I'm

55
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 4: on the side of like I just don't want to

56
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 4: hear Matthew Stafford no more wine. He's gonna be a

57
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 4: ram Like you guys know, I am so done with it,

58
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 4: Like just please get it over with.

59
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, all this reporting is happening, and meanwhile, like Lakwan's

60
00:02:56,520 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 1: in the corner like mom and dad are fighting again, Like.

61
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 3: He doesn't care about the insider beef at all. He's

62
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 3: just like.

63
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 2: So that's all he cares about about.

64
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 1: A side notes all this and I didn't need to

65
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:10,959
Speaker 1: get by the way, we are going to get into

66
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 1: some free agency stuff. We will get into positional breakdown

67
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:15,519
Speaker 1: starting next week. But this was kind of a big

68
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 1: overview of you know, teams have money to spend where

69
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 1: they should go that sort of thing. We also talk

70
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,919
Speaker 1: to some oscars because that's coming up on Sunday as well.

71
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:24,920
Speaker 1: Do want to ask real quick, but since we're talking

72
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:28,079
Speaker 1: about insiders and that sort of thing, did you see

73
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:32,079
Speaker 1: that WOJ is auctioning off a lot of the.

74
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:33,360
Speaker 2: Phones that he used.

75
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 3: Yes, but I don't understand why at all.

76
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 2: Well, because you know, you know, he's working at Saint Bonaventure.

77
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 1: He's basically I don't know what his title is, general

78
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 1: manager or something of the program. And I think this

79
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 1: is just a fundraiser. I think he's just using this

80
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 1: to raise money.

81
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 3: I get why he's doing it. I do not understand

82
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 3: why people are going to pay big money for a

83
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 3: phone that he wants tweeted on. Is their contacts and

84
00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 3: info in the phone?

85
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 1: I doubt it. I'm pretty sure he wiped all these phones,

86
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 1: like you know, like you're not gonna get the phone

87
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 1: to be able to just like you just get it.

88
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 3: The hardware, Like I don't get it you're.

89
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 1: Gonna be able to call up John Calipari and be like,

90
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 1: hey man, so like what's your strategy for this?

91
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 2: Like you just can't do that.

92
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 4: That's like you guys buying a toolbox with no tools

93
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 4: in it, Like that makes no sense, specifically us.

94
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 3: Work with cars.

95
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 1: Here's I was sort of with you, Flora, I'm like,

96
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: I can't believe you do this. Like I put this

97
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 1: in a text chain with some friends. I'm like, I

98
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 1: feel like, if you do this, you need to have

99
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 1: somebody come take care of you and your money or whatever.

100
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 1: And my buddy was just like, I oto f of

101
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: an NBA siko that I really thought about it for

102
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:38,040
Speaker 1: a minute.

103
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 3: Okay, it had look if it had texts in it

104
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 3: or numbers, sure, but his head's just it's been wiped, right, Like,

105
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,359
Speaker 3: I'm sure they've taken a Clarox wipe or something and

106
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 3: wiped it so you're not getting his fingerprints on it.

107
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 3: I it just doesn't make sense to me.

108
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 1: I mean, it could just be any phone. I'm just like, hey,

109
00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:58,920
Speaker 1: here's here's one of phones.

110
00:04:59,040 --> 00:04:59,840
Speaker 2: There is he.

111
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:03,120
Speaker 3: Should sell ten thousand of them and just be like

112
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 3: they were my phones.

113
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, I heard the I heard us up to like

114
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 1: fifteen hundred at least that was as of a few

115
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 1: days ago.

116
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 3: So for like an iPhone, twelve.

117
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 1: iPhones, I don't know, I don't know, but yeah, apparently

118
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 1: there's a market for it. I didn't think there would be,

119
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:23,039
Speaker 1: but yep, apparently there there is one. I believe this

120
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 1: is the news headlines first, because there are a couple

121
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 1: of actual NFL related news stories out there, not just

122
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 1: you know, people who slightly dislike each other shouting at

123
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 1: each other in a coffee shop. Reports coming out well

124
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 1: out of Indianapolis because that's where the combine is happening,

125
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 1: but also out of Indianapolis because that's where the subjects

126
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 1: of the story are employed. Anthony Richardson reportedly will have

127
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:49,600
Speaker 1: to compete for the Colts number one QB job. This

128
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 1: is according to general manager Chris Ballard said, I think

129
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,160
Speaker 1: it's good for the team, and I think it's good

130
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 1: for Anthony. It's got to be the right guy to

131
00:05:56,560 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 1: create real competition. But we want to create real competition now. Florieal,

132
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 1: I know we've talked about Richardson on the show, and

133
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 1: well you even talked about the fact that the draft

134
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 1: price is going to be down on him because of

135
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,040
Speaker 1: what happened last year, but that at the right price,

136
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 1: you're still wanting to take a swing at him because

137
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:18,120
Speaker 1: there's still that rushing upside and maybe he starts to

138
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 1: develop as a passer and get a little bit better there.

139
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: Now that he's supposedly going to be at a quarterback competition,

140
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 1: that feels like the idea of him being a starter

141
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 1: is very much in doubt. Are you still in on

142
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson in a quarterback competition because it's.

143
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 3: Only going to make him cheaper? I feel like, And

144
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 3: in our mock last week he went I don't think

145
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 3: he was a top fifteen quarterback drafted.

146
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 4: He went at the twelve twelve, almost thirteenth round, and

147
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:49,600
Speaker 4: that's as a pure QB two.

148
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 3: So like, the same upside applies. I believe that we've

149
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,920
Speaker 3: been so excited for in the past because we've seen

150
00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 3: the flashes of it. We know he has this cannon

151
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 3: of an arm and he can run with the best

152
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,839
Speaker 3: of them in the NFL and all of that. There's

153
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,760
Speaker 3: a lot he needs to work on, But to me,

154
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,560
Speaker 3: it's twofold one. He's cheaper than ever. Look, it's February

155
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 3: twenty seventh. I will change my tune if they sign

156
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 3: Russell Wilson or someone like, But right now I look

157
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 3: at their roster and I'm like, he's still the best

158
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 3: quarterback on it. Like it was. I was on the

159
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 3: side of it was dumb to bention for Joe Flacco

160
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 3: last year. So one other thing that I saw this

161
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 3: morning Cam Wolf tweeted it out is that Anthony Richardson

162
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 3: is going to join Josh Allen and work with his

163
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 3: QB trainers and stuff this offseason. And one big thing

164
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 3: that Alan did when he was early in his career

165
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 3: was changed his throwing motion. He has all his strength

166
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 3: of armwise, he just needed to be a little bit

167
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 3: more accurate. If Anthony Richardson can and I know Josh

168
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,040
Speaker 3: Allen is the exception, not the rule, but if he

169
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:54,160
Speaker 3: could become a little even somewhat more accurate, all the

170
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 3: tools are there for him to hit the ground running.

171
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 1: This look on feels sort of like last year when

172
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 1: everybody was drafting Justin Fields because yeah, look in the

173
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 1: off season in the summer, it was trending toward Russell

174
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 1: Wilson being the starting quarterback, but we were all like, well,

175
00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 1: justin Field is gonna play at some point, everybody kept

176
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 1: drafting Justin Fields over Russell Wilson. This sort of feels

177
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 1: like that again.

178
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, and like Florial said, this is the cheapest he's

179
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 4: gonna be, and like if he's going in the thirteenth round,

180
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 4: if he doesn't pan now, or he's benched, or they

181
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 4: bring in a big name, they get Aaron Rodgers, you know,

182
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,600
Speaker 4: they bring in another old guy to be behind him.

183
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 4: I mean, hey, it's fine, I'll just drop him to

184
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 4: the waiver wire. I mean there's gonna be plenty of

185
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 4: rookie quarterbacks that you could take, you know, your shots

186
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 4: on that will be living and breathing on the wire.

187
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:40,280
Speaker 4: It's like, it just feels like a situation that they're

188
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 4: gonna say this that early to motivate him to get

189
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,719
Speaker 4: a real off season, because like there's been plenty of

190
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 4: examples pointing out of boy Anthony Britchson, like he hadn't

191
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 4: really had a full blown healthy offseason, Like this is

192
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:54,840
Speaker 4: it right now? You know, and I feel like, you know, rehabbing,

193
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,680
Speaker 4: your mind is elsewhere. You're focused on getting more healthy.

194
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:01,200
Speaker 4: It's like, now he has the key, but you're gonna

195
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 4: have somebody behind you to put that fire under your butt.

196
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 1: This also feels though, like because if they really are

197
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:11,359
Speaker 1: using this as a motivational tactic in February, before the combine,

198
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:14,720
Speaker 1: before free agency, in the draft, that to me, says

199
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 1: you're kind of at the end of your rope, like

200
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,439
Speaker 1: this is maybe your last chance, and they've already shown

201
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 1: that they'll pull the trigger on benching him, so that

202
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:26,280
Speaker 1: would make me nervous. But I guess if you're talking

203
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 1: about him as a QB two, a thirteenth round pick,

204
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:33,600
Speaker 1: there's minimal risk involved of drafting Anthony Richardson.

205
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 3: I do think it's a specific build, Like I don't

206
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 3: want to take Anthony Richardson as my QB two if

207
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 3: let's say, like I love Drake may if I draft

208
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,440
Speaker 3: Drake may as my quarterback, I don't want Richardson to

209
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 3: be my backup because that's way too much risk. But

210
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,240
Speaker 3: if I have like Dak Prescott, let's say, or Jared

211
00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 3: goff Baker Mayfield, I'm like, Okay, I have a safe guy. Now,

212
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 3: I'll take the lottery ticket in Anthony Richardson.

213
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess that makes sense. That makes sense. So well,

214
00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 2: we'll keep an eye on this.

215
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 1: We'll see what the Colts to do if they bring

216
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:02,680
Speaker 1: somebody in, and who that potentially is going to be,

217
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,079
Speaker 1: and what that means for Anthony Richardson's job.

218
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 2: Other news out of Kansas City.

219
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 1: The Chiefs are expecting that Travis Kelce will be back

220
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:15,440
Speaker 1: for his thirteenth NFL season. We talked with Matt Oconta

221
00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 1: on Tuesday about some of his potential cut candidates, and

222
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey.

223
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:22,200
Speaker 2: Was one of them. He admitted, Look, this is a

224
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 2: very long.

225
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 1: Shot, and I feel like I think just after we recorded,

226
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:27,800
Speaker 1: I think this news broke about Kelsey particularly coming back

227
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:29,840
Speaker 1: for his thirteenth season, because that's what happens when we

228
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:30,760
Speaker 1: record podcasts.

229
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,839
Speaker 2: LaQuan is he still a top five tight end?

230
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 4: No, if anything, he's right on the outside. And I

231
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 4: say that because you have this year's upcoming draft with

232
00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 4: these young guys, and every year in the past couple

233
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 4: of years, we've seen guys just kind of catapult to

234
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 4: the top and kind of sit inside that top five

235
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 4: or outside the top five. Trey mc brice, Sam Laporter.

236
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 4: I mean, this is a great tight end class coming

237
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,040
Speaker 4: up now, and then you have new emergers of like

238
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,720
Speaker 4: last season of Zach Ertz as a tight end seven

239
00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:00,559
Speaker 4: or John Newsmith as a top five. There's a lot

240
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 4: of influx now, you know, with the tight ends and

241
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,680
Speaker 4: opportunities for guys to be inside or right outside that

242
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:08,840
Speaker 4: top five. I think Travis Kelsey would still be a

243
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 4: tight end utilize how we've seen him in the past.

244
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 4: But like we mentioned before, like he's just been on

245
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 4: the constant decline, decline, decline, and I'm like scratching my head,

246
00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 4: like why are you coming back? Like I don't understand.

247
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:23,440
Speaker 4: Your girlfriend's a billionaire, Like you have a podcast, commercials,

248
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 4: you're you're good, run off into the sunset, man, But

249
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:27,120
Speaker 4: here we are.

250
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I feel like, you know, at least

251
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:31,600
Speaker 1: on the football field, he's pretty much accomplished, I think

252
00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:32,960
Speaker 1: everything that he can accomplish.

253
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 2: But look, credit to you if that's.

254
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 1: That's what you Yeah, yeah, I look the credits to you.

255
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:41,079
Speaker 1: If this is where your heart is and this is

256
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 1: what you want to do, then I guess I understand,

257
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:48,840
Speaker 1: especially because looking playing pro football, it is a limited window, right,

258
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:50,679
Speaker 1: it is a relatively short period of your life. So

259
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,680
Speaker 1: I guess I sort of understand that. But yeah, I

260
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:54,200
Speaker 1: mean I'm kind.

261
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:54,440
Speaker 2: Of with you.

262
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:56,080
Speaker 1: Like I was looking at it because he finished his

263
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 1: tight end five last year and then I looked at

264
00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 1: him like, well, Mark Andrews had a down year and

265
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 1: still finished tight in six. Sam Laporta didn't have a

266
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 1: great year, he was still in the top ten. TJ

267
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 1: Hawkinson didn't come back till midway through the year and

268
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:11,400
Speaker 1: was still working his way back from an injury. And

269
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:14,200
Speaker 1: I'm like, those are three names right there that I

270
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 1: think in a normal year could finish ahead of Travis

271
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,160
Speaker 1: Kelce right now, and that automatically pushes him out of

272
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:20,720
Speaker 1: the top five.

273
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:23,160
Speaker 3: I'm not drafting him at.

274
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:28,040
Speaker 4: All, No me either, Like call me Bill Belichick.

275
00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,080
Speaker 3: I'd rather be a year off than a year late,

276
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:32,079
Speaker 3: you know, And like I feel like the last two

277
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 3: years have been big. Especially last year was a big

278
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 3: warning sign because you look at his game logs. Most

279
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,040
Speaker 3: weeks he was not good. A couple he had like

280
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 3: a few spike weeks that really kind of pushed him

281
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 3: up the end of the year rankings. But like, I

282
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 3: don't know, he could just fall off a cliff and

283
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 3: not be Fantasy relevant. It's in the range of outcomes.

284
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:54,400
Speaker 4: What if he's like cheap cheap, But.

285
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:58,360
Speaker 2: I don't think he's gonna be cheap cheap, just because which.

286
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:01,679
Speaker 4: Is still like cheap cheap is like seventh eighth round,

287
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 4: Like this is where you're getting the David and the

288
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 4: Djoku's And.

289
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 5: To be honest, depending on the Browns quarterback about to

290
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 5: say so, I also think it depends on what draft

291
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,840
Speaker 5: room you're in that too.

292
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:22,440
Speaker 1: I'm looking so in our mock draft, Kelsey went in

293
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 1: the eighth round, right. I think if you're in a

294
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:30,200
Speaker 1: room with sharps, I think that's where you get him.

295
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,080
Speaker 1: I think if you are in a home league, that's

296
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,880
Speaker 1: not gonna happen. He's gonna be gone before then, because

297
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 1: because it's gonna be like, oh, it's gonna be like

298
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:39,280
Speaker 1: the fourth round.

299
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:40,280
Speaker 2: Somebody is gonna be.

300
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,160
Speaker 1: Like, wait, Travis Kelsey is still here, and they're gonna

301
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:43,839
Speaker 1: take it like it's just that's what's gonna happen.

302
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,080
Speaker 4: I'm half say, my home league listens to the pod,

303
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:47,320
Speaker 4: so they're not gonna take him.

304
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:48,760
Speaker 2: In the first round.

305
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:53,680
Speaker 4: A little bit things up a lot, man. These guys

306
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,840
Speaker 4: they're not sharps. They're they're they're dolls, you know, and like,

307
00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 4: I love you guys, but just don't don't do that.

308
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:03,080
Speaker 2: When they start taking everybody that you mentioned as a sleeper.

309
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:06,079
Speaker 4: If it's and they're gone that thuty, I've known that

310
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 4: I'm never going to get a ranch player. So that's fine.

311
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 3: So you'll be able to draft Stafford this year. I

312
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:20,320
Speaker 3: almost cursed on this pod words, but we're good.

313
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 2: Oh man, all right, that's enough.

314
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:25,720
Speaker 1: One other thing, one that gets to Nick Schuck, who

315
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 1: does amazing work and you can hear him occasionally on

316
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 1: NFL Daily. You can find his stuff on NFL dot com.

317
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:34,840
Speaker 1: He wrote an article team Fits for twelve notable free agents.

318
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 1: I picked out the four offensive guys that he mentioned.

319
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:41,600
Speaker 1: Two of them I don't think are much of a surprise,

320
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 1: he says. Tee higginshould stay with the Bengals. Chris Godwin

321
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:45,000
Speaker 1: should stay with the Bucks.

322
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 3: No, let Godwin go. No, why are you?

323
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:51,160
Speaker 2: How invested are you? And Jayleen McMillan.

324
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 3: That's I think Jayden McMillan could break out in a

325
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 3: big way of God. Plus like if Higgins is staying it,

326
00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:59,640
Speaker 3: since he Godwin, let him go to New Way. I

327
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,800
Speaker 3: need your mad to have someone i've I've been so

328
00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 3: high on him. I see, I'd rather God when he's younger.

329
00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 1: I knew there was an ulterior motive for getting God

330
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:11,640
Speaker 1: went out of Tampa Bay, and he just didn't know.

331
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 1: I didn't know if it was McMillan or But Drake

332
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 1: May is also a pretty good reason this was interesting.

333
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 1: Amari Cooper are the commanders, and I mean Florida. You

334
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:24,520
Speaker 1: can sort of speak to this because Amari Cooper was

335
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 1: a Bill. I said the question marks because like I

336
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,360
Speaker 1: had to sort of remind myself of that sometimes. Obviously,

337
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 1: you know, we love Jaydon Daniels and Terry mclaur needs

338
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:37,040
Speaker 1: some help. It does feel like Amari Cooper at this

339
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 1: point in his career is probably better served as a

340
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 1: wide receiver too, though, right.

341
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:43,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think his day and last year for the Bills,

342
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:46,280
Speaker 3: he was their wide receiver four, Like he was playing

343
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:49,160
Speaker 3: behind MATC. Collins Key on Coleman. It was pretty wild.

344
00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:52,240
Speaker 3: I still think he can be better than that. It

345
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,800
Speaker 3: was kind of frustrating seeing them not use him as

346
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 3: much except for the one game against the Rams. You

347
00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:59,320
Speaker 3: look at his game log against what the Bills, they

348
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,760
Speaker 3: barely and that game they threw him the ball fourteen times.

349
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 3: Like it was wild to see that usage. But I

350
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 3: think as a number two field stretcher takes some of

351
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 3: the pressure away from Terry McLaurin give jayde and Daniels

352
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:14,760
Speaker 3: another weapon.

353
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:14,840
Speaker 1: It.

354
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't he can't be a one anymore, but

355
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 3: I think in that situation with the quarterback, a good

356
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 3: quarterback and targets up for grabs and someone to clearly take.

357
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:26,720
Speaker 3: Because with the Bills, when Cooper was out there, he

358
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:28,600
Speaker 3: was still kind of the focal point. Their teams are

359
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:30,800
Speaker 3: putting their best corners on him. You're not gonna do

360
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:33,480
Speaker 3: that if you have Terry McLaurin. So that could be

361
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:36,080
Speaker 3: a way that Amari Cooper could thrive. But it does

362
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 3: sadden me to say that he's gonna be thirty one

363
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:41,800
Speaker 3: in June. We are probably getting close to the end

364
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,600
Speaker 3: of Amari Cooper's rope because he has been so much

365
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 3: fun for me to have in fantasy throughout his career

366
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 3: that it's it's kind of sad that it's it's soon

367
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 3: coming to an end.

368
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:52,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, he had those peak years.

369
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 1: I think with the Cowboys it was work because he

370
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 1: kind of got off to a quick start.

371
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 2: With the Raiders. Then for whatever reason, they.

372
00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:01,760
Speaker 1: Just stopped using him, and I don't I can't explain why.

373
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:03,280
Speaker 1: Then he goes to Dallas and we're like, oh, yeah,

374
00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:06,040
Speaker 1: that's right, he's still good, you know. And that went

375
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:08,639
Speaker 1: on for a few years until till Cleveland and that

376
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 1: that whole thing. The other one that Nick put in

377
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:14,160
Speaker 1: there that was interesting. Justin Fields to the Raiders. It's

378
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,959
Speaker 1: not the first place I've heard or read anything like that.

379
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:20,119
Speaker 1: I know, it's a common idea that's floating out there

380
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:25,160
Speaker 1: for you, Lakwan. I mean, look, apparently Matthew Stafford is

381
00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:27,800
Speaker 1: running into and having chats with Tom Brady at ski

382
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:31,600
Speaker 1: Resorts in Montana. If you could make a pitch to

383
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:35,679
Speaker 1: TB twelve about taking Justin Fields over Matthew Stafford, what

384
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:36,720
Speaker 1: would that pitch.

385
00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:42,000
Speaker 4: Be, Pete Carroll, Chif Kelly, run first offense, draft Ashton genty,

386
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,200
Speaker 4: have Justin Fields, just run the offense and literally run

387
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:48,119
Speaker 4: the like it would just be fantasy gold. And I

388
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 4: honestly think it would be the upward of the Raiders,

389
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:53,400
Speaker 4: like they need this, They need some type of pop,

390
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 4: They need somebody that's going to go out there and

391
00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 4: be electric. I don't know if Matthew Stafford he's the

392
00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 4: plug and play piece there. And this is not me

393
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 4: being biased being a RAMS fan, not trying to get

394
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:05,119
Speaker 4: that going, but I just think you get more excitement,

395
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:08,080
Speaker 4: more fire out of that offense with a Justin Fields,

396
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:10,840
Speaker 4: and for fantasy, that stock is going to go up.

397
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:13,480
Speaker 4: Man I'm not right now confident enough to put a

398
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:16,320
Speaker 4: stamp of what round, but I'm confident to stamp him

399
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 4: as a QB one. He ends up in Vegas. Wow.

400
00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:25,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, When you said Pete Carroll, Chip Kelly run first offense,

401
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:29,399
Speaker 1: drash draft Ashton john T, the first thing my brain

402
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,119
Speaker 1: heard was broke Bauers though.

403
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:35,800
Speaker 3: That was Yeah, that was.

404
00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:37,400
Speaker 2: The first thing that popped into my brain.

405
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:39,960
Speaker 1: It was like, oh, but but we have we have,

406
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,720
Speaker 1: we have tightened one, Like what's happening here?

407
00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:45,119
Speaker 4: The fields still.

408
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 3: Throw to cole comeda good amount, right.

409
00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 2: He did? That's true, he did.

410
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:50,119
Speaker 1: And you know, hopefully they can work that sort of

411
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 1: thing in because look, Bowers obviously was a stud. Jakobe

412
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:59,080
Speaker 1: Myers was usable in fantasy. Justin fields, I think takes

413
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 1: some of that out of the mix.

414
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,920
Speaker 3: So yeah, since since the Bears got rid of him,

415
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,399
Speaker 3: I felt like he was just born to where silver

416
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 3: and black. I don't know, I just think he would

417
00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,440
Speaker 3: look so good in that uniform, And I I agree

418
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:12,560
Speaker 3: with everything else Q said.

419
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:15,000
Speaker 1: You know why because because you know what you know

420
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:20,040
Speaker 1: it's dancing through your head probably subconsciously is Terrell prior.

421
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 3: Receiver.

422
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:30,520
Speaker 1: It's a tall, tall, mobile Ohio State quarterback.

423
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:33,679
Speaker 2: You're just you're you're looking there.

424
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:37,439
Speaker 1: You're thinking, oh, yeah, Torell Prior Justin Fields, like Justin

425
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:38,400
Speaker 1: Fields isn't gonna end.

426
00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:42,320
Speaker 4: Up as a wide receiver. But eh, he's not gonna

427
00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 4: end up as a wide receiver. They tried to turn

428
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:47,200
Speaker 4: him to a running back, you know, like a year ago.

429
00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:50,080
Speaker 1: We'll see, they're not gonna They're not They're not going

430
00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:51,280
Speaker 1: to turn into a wide receiver.

431
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:52,480
Speaker 2: So yeah, I don't know.

432
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:57,000
Speaker 1: But it's definitely an idea that has gained a lot

433
00:19:57,040 --> 00:19:59,920
Speaker 1: of traction, certainly at least in media and on social media.

434
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:00,880
Speaker 2: But we'll see.

435
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 1: But go check out the article Nick Schuk Team fits

436
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:07,480
Speaker 1: for twelve notable free agents in twenty twenty five.

437
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:10,040
Speaker 2: It is definitely worth your time. Quick read, but definitely

438
00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:10,640
Speaker 2: worth your time.

439
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,639
Speaker 1: Speaking of free agency, we're gonna dive into some big

440
00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:17,680
Speaker 1: overarching themes here. Teams with money, teams that maybe don't

441
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 1: have a whole lot, and maybe some teams that need

442
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:19,480
Speaker 1: to be.

443
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:21,560
Speaker 2: Aggressive when it comes to the free agent market.

444
00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:24,080
Speaker 1: That's coming up next on the NFL Fantasy Football Podcast,

445
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:28,680
Speaker 1: We are let.

446
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:29,200
Speaker 2: Me Do the Math.

447
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:36,359
Speaker 1: Thirteen days away from the official start of free agency.

448
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:38,640
Speaker 1: We are a little bit less than that away from

449
00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:41,240
Speaker 1: the start of what do they call it the negotiating

450
00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:49,639
Speaker 1: period or something legal tampering, legal tamperings happening. Yeah, I

451
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,199
Speaker 1: feel like the last couple of years, it's like we

452
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,960
Speaker 1: find out pretty much about all the major deals, like

453
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 1: the day before free agency hits, and then the clock

454
00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 1: turns over to the start of the new league year,

455
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 1: and you're like, all right, well, okay, like everything, all

456
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:08,480
Speaker 1: the big things have happened, and then like, you know,

457
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,679
Speaker 1: we're getting a few you know, off ball linebackers or

458
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:13,280
Speaker 1: wide receiver threes signing.

459
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:17,160
Speaker 3: Last year, every running back was signed within like an hour.

460
00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:18,920
Speaker 4: Yeah that was awesome though.

461
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,359
Speaker 2: Yeah that happened real fast, real real fast.

462
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 4: So I love when the skill player a good time.

463
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,160
Speaker 1: Anyway, next week we'll start getting into our positional breakdowns

464
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:28,879
Speaker 1: or do you know quarterback type, you know what the

465
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:31,680
Speaker 1: positions are, but we'll start getting into that next week.

466
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:35,199
Speaker 1: Wanted to kind of do a big overview sort of

467
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 1: today about who's gotten money to spend and where we,

468
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 1: in our humble opinions, think they should be spending it.

469
00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:45,720
Speaker 1: So I went to overthecap dot com to dig out

470
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:48,639
Speaker 1: some numbers the teams with the most money to spend.

471
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,840
Speaker 1: Patriots have one hundred and twenty point three million, the

472
00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:55,760
Speaker 1: Raiders ninety two point eight million, and the Commanders seventy

473
00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,120
Speaker 1: five and a half million, which has got them sitting

474
00:21:58,160 --> 00:21:58,560
Speaker 1: pretty right.

475
00:21:58,600 --> 00:21:59,520
Speaker 2: I mean, they were in the.

476
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 1: NFC Championship game and they have a bunch of money

477
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,359
Speaker 1: to go out and spend and continue to improve that roster.

478
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:08,280
Speaker 1: Lots of reasons for optimism if you are a Commander's fan.

479
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:13,440
Speaker 2: On the other side, I called them the broke boys.

480
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:14,199
Speaker 3: Broke boys.

481
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:18,120
Speaker 2: These Saints are fifty two point six million dollars over

482
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 2: the cap.

483
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:22,679
Speaker 1: Not great when you have an aging quarterback and aging

484
00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:27,159
Speaker 1: running back, an injury prone wide receiver, and you've lost

485
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:30,440
Speaker 1: your jack of all trades. Fantasy frustration of a tight end.

486
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:33,440
Speaker 1: The weird spot to be in. The Browns thirty two

487
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:36,320
Speaker 1: point three million dollars over the cap and they need

488
00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:39,360
Speaker 1: a quarterback. The Bills are thirteen point two million over.

489
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:41,320
Speaker 1: But you guys just resign Khalil Shakir.

490
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 3: A lot of restructures are coming.

491
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:46,600
Speaker 1: A lot of restructures are coming. But also, I mean,

492
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:48,360
Speaker 1: you guys are still in a good place. The windows

493
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 1: still open. For the bills. They're still very competitive, so yeah,

494
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:54,760
Speaker 1: they're over the cap, but they also don't really have

495
00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:58,000
Speaker 1: any immediate pressing like gotta have it this year that

496
00:22:58,160 --> 00:22:58,879
Speaker 1: sort of needs.

497
00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:01,840
Speaker 3: So the Saints are the team that people always point

498
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:03,800
Speaker 3: to and say, oh, look, see the cap isn't real

499
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:07,240
Speaker 3: in the NFL, and you can kick it down the

500
00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 3: road as long as you want, but the bill does

501
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 3: come due, and the Saints have been paying trying to

502
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 3: avoid paying this bill for a decade and it has

503
00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:16,760
Speaker 3: cost them a decade. Yeah.

504
00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:17,920
Speaker 2: I mean that's the thing.

505
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:20,560
Speaker 1: They've been kicking it down the road and they've they've

506
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:22,159
Speaker 1: got nothing to show for it.

507
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:25,560
Speaker 3: They have cool Taysom Hill highlights.

508
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:34,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, so there's that part. So I went to figure

509
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 1: out which teams need to be the most aggressive in

510
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:43,440
Speaker 1: free agency. I put a few down here on this list.

511
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:46,120
Speaker 1: We don't have to go through these one by one necessarily,

512
00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:48,879
Speaker 1: but uh, I mean, lakwan, when you looked at this list,

513
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:54,840
Speaker 1: you know, Browns, Giants, Titans, Pats, Cowboys, Vikings, Texans among them,

514
00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 1: were there one or two that really stood out to

515
00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 1: you that like, hey, look, I really want to see

516
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:03,199
Speaker 1: this team go out and actually do something or you know, like,

517
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:05,200
Speaker 1: how did you, like, how did you view this list

518
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:05,959
Speaker 1: when you looked at it?

519
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:08,560
Speaker 4: Well, I got two teams. One of them might be Florials,

520
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:11,600
Speaker 4: but the Patriots need wide receivers like Drake may is

521
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:13,679
Speaker 4: on the up and up, and I don't want this

522
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 4: young man's development to get delayed because they still have

523
00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:19,840
Speaker 4: a roster of wide receiver sixes, you know. Like, but

524
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:21,960
Speaker 4: the other one was the Cowboys, like get back to

525
00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:24,080
Speaker 4: the run. Like, if they're gonna be serious about getting

526
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:26,119
Speaker 4: back to the run, you go out there, you draft

527
00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:28,080
Speaker 4: one of these running back prospects, and then you just

528
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:31,280
Speaker 4: run the rock because you still have Dak Prescott still

529
00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:33,919
Speaker 4: playing great football, you still have CD Lamb among the

530
00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:37,000
Speaker 4: elites of when we're talking about the top wide receivers.

531
00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,719
Speaker 4: So it's like, go out there and be aggressive and

532
00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:41,880
Speaker 4: get some of this stuff done so you can get

533
00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 4: back to being fantasy relevant because like, even drafting CD

534
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:47,720
Speaker 4: this year, I'm kind of still cautious, like we're seeing

535
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 4: him drop to like the fifth sixth pick, when honestly,

536
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:52,640
Speaker 4: Cede Lamb is really freaking good.

537
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 3: He should be in the.

538
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:57,399
Speaker 4: Conversation right after Justin Jefferson among the first three picks,

539
00:24:57,440 --> 00:24:59,520
Speaker 4: but you know it's the situation that they got to

540
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 4: go over there Dallas.

541
00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:04,200
Speaker 1: I look, I know, think he still is in that conversation,

542
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:07,119
Speaker 1: I mean, I still with a healthy CD Lamb and

543
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:10,160
Speaker 1: a healthy Dak Prescott. I think CD is still good

544
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:14,920
Speaker 1: enough to be wide receiver three necessarily. I also wonder,

545
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:16,600
Speaker 1: and we didn't put it on this list with the

546
00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:20,959
Speaker 1: Cowboys when we mentioned running back, I feel like they

547
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:24,760
Speaker 1: could stand to go get a second wide receiver. They

548
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:28,080
Speaker 1: need a number two, They need somebody else besides CD Lamb.

549
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:31,199
Speaker 1: I mean, he's phenomenal, right, and he can be a

550
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:34,560
Speaker 1: game changer, but also we saw him break down last year.

551
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:37,920
Speaker 1: There's only so much he can do on his own.

552
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,959
Speaker 1: And you know, Jalen Tobert isn't him. Brandon Cooks. We

553
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 1: talked about Amari Cooper being at the end of his career.

554
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:47,200
Speaker 1: Brandon Cooks definitely at the end of his career. Devonte

555
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:51,239
Speaker 1: Turpin really more of a special team's stud but not

556
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:54,479
Speaker 1: necessarily a wide receiver like Floya. I just feel like,

557
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,119
Speaker 1: if anything, I mean, running back is definitely a big piece,

558
00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 1: but they got to get CD and Dak by extension

559
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:01,160
Speaker 1: and some help out there.

560
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:06,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, they desperately need that because, like you said, Brandon Cooks,

561
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:08,880
Speaker 3: at the end of the rope last year, they were

562
00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 3: using a lot turping on, like a lot of design

563
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:15,040
Speaker 3: touches and stuff, and like that's something that you do.

564
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,200
Speaker 3: You either do it for as out of necessity, which

565
00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:19,280
Speaker 3: is what the Cowboys were doing, or you use that

566
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:22,040
Speaker 3: as like a luxury when you have other playmakers and

567
00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:25,080
Speaker 3: they did not have that. So yeah, see, it might

568
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 3: cause CD a couple of targets, but I'd argue, like,

569
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 3: if you sacrifice a few targets for less defensive coverage

570
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:36,920
Speaker 3: and a higher percentage chances of target of coming down

571
00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:39,239
Speaker 3: with those throws, I think it could be a good

572
00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:42,080
Speaker 3: thing for CD LAMB fantasy wise, even though volume is

573
00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:43,040
Speaker 3: always what we're chasing.

574
00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:46,040
Speaker 1: I mean beyond that, I mean Lakwan mentioned the Patriots

575
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:47,359
Speaker 1: going after wide receivers.

576
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:48,639
Speaker 2: I would think I.

577
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 1: Would think that was maybe the one that was top

578
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,480
Speaker 1: of your list, But is there somebody else there that

579
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:55,520
Speaker 1: was sort of like, Okay, I would like to see

580
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 1: this team go heavy on this position.

581
00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:02,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, Patriots won. For my heart as much as I

582
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:06,520
Speaker 3: love Drake may But for fantasy, I think the Vikings

583
00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 3: signing a running back because Aaron Jones is a free agent.

584
00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:11,320
Speaker 3: It could be Aaron Jones that they bring back. They've

585
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:14,199
Speaker 3: already kind of said they want him back. But I

586
00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,720
Speaker 3: believe whoever the starting running back is for the Vikings

587
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:21,000
Speaker 3: is in a great fantasy spot because all the playmakers

588
00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:23,439
Speaker 3: around him is going to help take defensive attention away.

589
00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:27,760
Speaker 3: I trust Koc. But then also the Texans like they

590
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,880
Speaker 3: desperately need another wide receiver. Tank Dell is coming off

591
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:34,120
Speaker 3: of his second severe injury. Who knows how much he's

592
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,719
Speaker 3: going to be able to give them this season. Steph

593
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:39,399
Speaker 3: Diggs a free agent who's also at the end of

594
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,960
Speaker 3: his rope career wise, tours ACL not going to be

595
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,920
Speaker 3: ready to start the year, I would imagine, so they

596
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:48,360
Speaker 3: need someone opposite of Nico Collins. And not only will

597
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:51,399
Speaker 3: that help Nico and take some defensive attention away, it

598
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:54,919
Speaker 3: gives CJ. Stroud another option. And the reason we were

599
00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,640
Speaker 3: so excited for Stroud last year was like three great

600
00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:01,080
Speaker 3: wide receivers. We really never got to see that come

601
00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:05,280
Speaker 3: together because Nico Collins got hurt. After a month, step

602
00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:07,879
Speaker 3: Diggs towards a cl while Nico Collins was out, and

603
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,520
Speaker 3: then Tank Dell was working his way back early on

604
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,639
Speaker 3: and then got hurt. So like, yes, add to the

605
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:16,680
Speaker 3: O line as well, Houston, but give C just shot

606
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 3: another playmaker, and I think that person could be very

607
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:21,320
Speaker 3: fantasy relevant as the number two target there.

608
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:23,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, and my first thought when I saw Texans wide

609
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:24,560
Speaker 1: receiver was like wait what the guy?

610
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 2: And I was like, no, no, they really don't you know.

611
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, my knee jerk was like they don't need invite

612
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:33,679
Speaker 1: and then like, yeah, no, they actually they actually do.

613
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:38,200
Speaker 1: I just want to see the Giants go get a quarterback.

614
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 1: And it doesn't it doesn't have to be it doesn't

615
00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:43,800
Speaker 1: have to be Matthew Stafford, but they they need to

616
00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:46,160
Speaker 1: go get a quarterback because here it is. We got

617
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:49,840
Speaker 1: Molikue Neighbors, who this year finished as a top six

618
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:55,560
Speaker 1: receiver with yeah, not great quarterback play?

619
00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:56,800
Speaker 2: Is that being too gentle?

620
00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:02,040
Speaker 3: Yeah? It ranged from awful to not great. It's a

621
00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:06,120
Speaker 3: wide range there. It was. It was the Veto Jones

622
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:08,120
Speaker 3: block and Tim Boyle.

623
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:08,920
Speaker 2: Tim Boyle.

624
00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:09,720
Speaker 3: Tim Boyle.

625
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:13,520
Speaker 1: Oh, because it is part of the NFL bylaws that

626
00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:16,400
Speaker 1: Tim Boyle must play at least one game every season.

627
00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:18,040
Speaker 3: I know it sounds like a beat up on this guy,

628
00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 3: but every time he starts him like, I don't even

629
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:22,840
Speaker 3: understand how he was entered into the NFL, let alone.

630
00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:26,760
Speaker 3: Still here, Yeah, college.

631
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:31,280
Speaker 1: More more interceptions than touchdowns in college.

632
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:32,400
Speaker 2: It was like.

633
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:40,840
Speaker 1: Tim Boyle, No, the answer is no, there's.

634
00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 3: No way that Peterman's college stats are are what.

635
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,880
Speaker 1: So I'm looking at Tim. I'm looking at Tim Boyle's numbers.

636
00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 1: Three seasons at Yukon. One touchdown pass, thirteen interceptions.

637
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:59,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, wow, he needs to be investigated. His freshman year

638
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:03,520
Speaker 3: he threw one hundred and thirty three times, zero touchdowns,

639
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 3: eight interceptions. Like, where's the application? Can I know you

640
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:10,479
Speaker 3: left Yukon he went to another school and he put

641
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 3: up some good numbers.

642
00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:15,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, he went to Eastern Kentucky. But like I don't. Yeah,

643
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,320
Speaker 2: that's that's un good. That is straight up I'm good.

644
00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:21,240
Speaker 1: So but anyway, back back to my point that you know,

645
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:25,200
Speaker 1: we love we love the Milakue neighbors, We love what

646
00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 1: he can do, and we love what he did despite

647
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:30,320
Speaker 1: the fact that you know, we we just ripped off

648
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 1: the list of quarterbacks that h that he played with

649
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 1: when he was there because I think I think they

650
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:38,440
Speaker 1: have a lot of other pieces there. I'm intrigued by

651
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,320
Speaker 1: Tyrone Tracy. I want to see, like I want to

652
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:44,280
Speaker 1: see what THEO Johnson can do at tight end. I

653
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:46,800
Speaker 1: just we just need, we just need the guy who

654
00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:50,160
Speaker 1: can get them the football. That's all we need. That's

655
00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:50,719
Speaker 1: what's missing.

656
00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:54,600
Speaker 3: I wanted to be warder Sanders personally, let them grow together,

657
00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:59,360
Speaker 3: and like that's what I want. I think Sanders especially

658
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:02,640
Speaker 3: could elevate year one. I think he's ready to do so.

659
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:06,080
Speaker 4: I kind of don't want either of them to go

660
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:08,160
Speaker 4: there because, like I feel like it will be there

661
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:11,360
Speaker 4: to save, you know, the coaching staff's job. So there's

662
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 4: a lot of pressure on them. Like I want them

663
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 4: to go into a smooth, easy situation without that attention,

664
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:20,640
Speaker 4: that spotlight on them to save these guys jobs who

665
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:24,200
Speaker 4: already shown they can't make right decisions be in that

666
00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:29,120
Speaker 4: aka super Bowl winning Saquon Barkley. So that's a terrible

667
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:32,560
Speaker 4: situation for any prospect to be walking into with that pressure.

668
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:36,240
Speaker 3: The top three's picks are all not great in that sense.

669
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:40,000
Speaker 4: Send me to Tennessee, baby, I'll get my cowboy hat.

670
00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:44,520
Speaker 1: The problem is all the places that they could potentially

671
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 1: go are all sort of like that. I mean, I

672
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 1: guess the Titans. You know, maybe there's a little less

673
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:56,800
Speaker 1: pressure there in Tennessee, but it's not a great situation, right,

674
00:31:56,800 --> 00:32:00,720
Speaker 1: Like Brian Callahan's not going anywhere in theory anytime soon.

675
00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:04,520
Speaker 1: But you know that's not great Cleveland. I mean, we

676
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:07,600
Speaker 1: kind of know what's going on in Cleveland. That's gis

677
00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:12,280
Speaker 1: the Giants you just mentioned, you know, I mean.

678
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,720
Speaker 4: Like the coaching staff is. The coaching staff is gone though.

679
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:18,800
Speaker 4: If they win four games, like, they're gone, they're cut.

680
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:21,560
Speaker 4: So you're onto your next offensive game, You're onto your

681
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:23,640
Speaker 4: next head Like I think that's a terrible way to

682
00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:25,480
Speaker 4: enter the NFL. Like, I honestly hate that.

683
00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:28,440
Speaker 3: I agree with that. The only pushback I'll have is,

684
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:30,920
Speaker 3: like I still think Brian Dable is a good offensive

685
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:35,400
Speaker 3: mining coach, So like, if you give him a competent quarterback,

686
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:39,000
Speaker 3: I with Belik Neighbors and Tyrone Tracy, I think they

687
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:41,479
Speaker 3: could be a They're not going to be like one

688
00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:43,560
Speaker 3: of the best offenses in football, but I think they

689
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 3: can be like reliable. I agree, Brian, the.

690
00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:48,440
Speaker 4: Bullet is good in New York.

691
00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:53,840
Speaker 3: Just in the Bills, Brady I'm good.

692
00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:57,160
Speaker 4: I like and like notice seriously, like I I feel

693
00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:59,720
Speaker 4: like he's kind of lost his way with all the

694
00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:02,640
Speaker 4: stuff going on, you know in New Jersey. You know,

695
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:03,840
Speaker 4: so it's it's weird.

696
00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 1: We wouldn't have to have this conversation about your situations

697
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:12,120
Speaker 1: and being under extra added pressure if we just abolished

698
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:13,680
Speaker 1: the draft and had rookie free agency.

699
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:17,640
Speaker 4: Wow, all right, we never had that?

700
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:19,480
Speaker 2: Have We never had that conversation on this show.

701
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:21,360
Speaker 3: We definitely have.

702
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:24,240
Speaker 1: I've had this conversation with other people and other formats.

703
00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:26,400
Speaker 1: I've had it on social media. I don't think we've

704
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:27,320
Speaker 1: ever had it on this show.

705
00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:30,600
Speaker 3: I agree with your take, but it will never happen.

706
00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 2: No, I know it'll never happen. That's why.

707
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:34,440
Speaker 1: That's why I can sit here and say it idly

708
00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:36,040
Speaker 1: on this show, because I know that in ever in

709
00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:37,360
Speaker 1: a million years will it happen.

710
00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 3: These are still kids. You can influence them very easily.

711
00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:43,520
Speaker 2: They have the transfer portal, we have ni l like

712
00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:45,440
Speaker 2: we have it already, Like they're already.

713
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:48,040
Speaker 1: Getting a taste of free agency. And on top of it,

714
00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:50,680
Speaker 1: like I didn't put this in here, and I know

715
00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:52,479
Speaker 1: we're veering all copic, but now I'm on I'm kind

716
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:55,000
Speaker 1: of on one at the mom of this because we

717
00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:57,600
Speaker 1: you know, we just had the the nfl PA put

718
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:01,040
Speaker 1: out its report card of team like what players think

719
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:03,800
Speaker 1: of their respective franchises, right, and you know, the three

720
00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:05,320
Speaker 1: of us we were in a tech Shane and you know,

721
00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:07,240
Speaker 1: we had some fun with it, laughing about this team

722
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:07,760
Speaker 1: and that team.

723
00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:08,160
Speaker 2: Whatever.

724
00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:12,040
Speaker 1: Part of what the draft does is that, you know,

725
00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:15,080
Speaker 1: on top of you know, whatever trying to build rosters,

726
00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:20,080
Speaker 1: is it hides bad franchises or weakfront offices because guys

727
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:23,120
Speaker 1: get drafted and you kind of just have to go there. Right,

728
00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:25,120
Speaker 1: So if there's you get drafted by a team that

729
00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:27,879
Speaker 1: has an f like, you don't get to choose, right,

730
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:32,120
Speaker 1: think about this in any other respect, any other occupation

731
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:34,320
Speaker 1: of life. If you were the number one medical student

732
00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:37,960
Speaker 1: in the country, right, imagine if you come out of college,

733
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,640
Speaker 1: out of medical school and you get sent to the

734
00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:43,879
Speaker 1: worst hospital in America. Not only do you get sent

735
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:46,120
Speaker 1: to the worst hospital in America, you gotta hold up

736
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 1: your scrubs and be like, I'm so thankful for the

737
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:49,960
Speaker 1: opportunity to work for at this hospital.

738
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:53,840
Speaker 2: It never happens. It never happens.

739
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:57,600
Speaker 3: So instead I googled worst hospital.

740
00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:00,319
Speaker 2: Usually worst hospital in America.

741
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:02,359
Speaker 3: He says, the Mississippi's comes up.

742
00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:06,400
Speaker 1: Nikes, yikes, right, So instead give these guys. We have

743
00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:09,400
Speaker 1: free agency already, we have a salary cap. So and

744
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:11,799
Speaker 1: I know everybody's like, well, everybody's gonna want to go

745
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:12,640
Speaker 1: to Kansas City.

746
00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:14,719
Speaker 2: No they won't. If I'm Kimo, I don't want to

747
00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:15,480
Speaker 2: go to Kansas City.

748
00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:17,080
Speaker 3: I'm never gonna play exactly.

749
00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:19,319
Speaker 4: Oh my god, I love this idea. Man, it could

750
00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:21,600
Speaker 4: be a slow draft. Started to game and just have

751
00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:22,279
Speaker 4: a slow draft.

752
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:23,000
Speaker 2: We could do whatever.

753
00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:25,239
Speaker 1: Remember we have Remember when we have National Signing Day

754
00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:26,879
Speaker 1: and you have like a top prospect and he sits

755
00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:28,399
Speaker 1: at a table with three hats and he just picks

756
00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:30,520
Speaker 1: a hat, Like why not we just have Shador Sanders

757
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:33,760
Speaker 1: sit at a table and he's got like Raiders and

758
00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:38,240
Speaker 1: Browns and Titans or whatever, and then he just puts

759
00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:40,360
Speaker 1: on the hat he wants. Like we could do it

760
00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:42,239
Speaker 1: could still be on TV, he could still be a

761
00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:44,279
Speaker 1: whole thing, Like we can still do this.

762
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:48,160
Speaker 3: I'm for this. But if if Malik Neighbors would have

763
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:50,200
Speaker 3: signed with the Chiefs last year, I would have been like,

764
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:51,280
Speaker 3: bring back the draft.

765
00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:55,080
Speaker 2: I mean, like, we can do this, we can make

766
00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:55,560
Speaker 2: it happen.

767
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:57,879
Speaker 1: But I know that you know, it doesn't sell enough

768
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:01,160
Speaker 1: advertising and it doesn't give stephen A. Smith the chance

769
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:03,760
Speaker 1: to talk to the number five overall pick when between

770
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:07,960
Speaker 1: let's move on. There are teams out there that you know,

771
00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:11,200
Speaker 1: maybe aren't necessarily hurting, that are that are that are

772
00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:14,719
Speaker 1: really close to something, Teams that are maybe one or

773
00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:17,480
Speaker 1: two pieces away from truly being fantasy relevant, right.

774
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:18,319
Speaker 2: Teams that we look at.

775
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:21,080
Speaker 1: And were like, oh, man, like I kind of like

776
00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:23,040
Speaker 1: this team or I kind of like this player, but

777
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:25,360
Speaker 1: they need a little bit of help. I put a

778
00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:27,840
Speaker 1: few of them down here, Steelers, jetson, Colts need a quarterback,

779
00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:30,280
Speaker 1: Broncos with a running back, Patriots a wide receiver, Bears

780
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:32,719
Speaker 1: old Line, Panthers wide receiver Lakwan Is there one of

781
00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:36,399
Speaker 1: these that you're like, I gotta see this happen. I'm

782
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,680
Speaker 1: guessing it's the Panthers because you were maybe leading the

783
00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:41,279
Speaker 1: charge on Bryce Young or is there somebody else there?

784
00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:44,439
Speaker 4: It could be the Panthers, but I feel like they're

785
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:46,040
Speaker 4: going to handle business this year, so I'm not going

786
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,239
Speaker 4: to pound the table much longer until we get into

787
00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:53,120
Speaker 4: draft season. But it has to be Kayla Williams line.

788
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:55,960
Speaker 3: But it has to be Kayla Williams.

789
00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:58,080
Speaker 4: Man, it has to be that Bear's O line because

790
00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:00,120
Speaker 4: it's like we hear all the talks of how how

791
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:02,560
Speaker 4: good Caleb is. I mean, Marcus, you've been sitting in

792
00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:04,879
Speaker 4: front row and seeing Caleb go out there and kill

793
00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:06,839
Speaker 4: it at USC. So it's like I want to see

794
00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:09,319
Speaker 4: the magic, Like I want to go out there and

795
00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:11,520
Speaker 4: believe that I can draft him. And he has that

796
00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:15,440
Speaker 4: QB one ceiling and they're literally only one piece away.

797
00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:17,920
Speaker 4: You have DJ Moore, you have the running back, and

798
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:21,000
Speaker 4: you have great draft capital as well. Get this O line,

799
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:23,239
Speaker 4: beefy and let Caleb go. Let him fly.

800
00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:25,680
Speaker 2: I mean I thought he did.

801
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:28,239
Speaker 1: There were there were definitely times last year where it's like, bro,

802
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:31,400
Speaker 1: You're you're holding onto the ball too long, you know,

803
00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:34,840
Speaker 1: like some some of the issues were on him, but

804
00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:39,560
Speaker 1: also you want to stretch of was at one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight,

805
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:42,719
Speaker 1: nine games in a row without an interception, right, either

806
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:47,719
Speaker 1: one interception in his first eleven games, just one? Uh?

807
00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:50,839
Speaker 1: You finished with six picks twenty touchdowns, like and as

808
00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:54,200
Speaker 1: the season went on, I just I guess I'm reading

809
00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:56,800
Speaker 1: this backwards. But one one interception in his last eleven

810
00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:59,879
Speaker 1: games as the season went on, you started to see

811
00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:02,600
Speaker 1: more of that. You started to see him get comfortable

812
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:04,520
Speaker 1: and see the game slow down for him a little bit.

813
00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:07,440
Speaker 1: So I would like to kind of see what happens

814
00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 1: when he.

815
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:09,400
Speaker 3: Actually gets to the magic Man.

816
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:10,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was derived of it.

817
00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:15,160
Speaker 1: I think, you know, when if he can get some protection,

818
00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:17,399
Speaker 1: he can get some time to throw. The thing about

819
00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 1: Caleb that everybody talks about it, or the off schedule

820
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:21,480
Speaker 1: plays or the things where he had things break down,

821
00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:23,279
Speaker 1: he makes those plays, and those were spectacular that they

822
00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:27,279
Speaker 1: were great, But even Caleb on schedule, like getting the

823
00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:30,480
Speaker 1: ball out quickly, being accurate, putting his receivers in places

824
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:31,600
Speaker 1: to make plays once they.

825
00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:32,960
Speaker 2: Have the ball in their hands.

826
00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:35,799
Speaker 1: I thought that was an underrated strength of his that

827
00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:39,440
Speaker 1: we didn't necessarily see a lot because he missed, he missthrows.

828
00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:42,880
Speaker 1: He just there were times he just straight up airmail throws.

829
00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:45,600
Speaker 3: I think that's partly because I agree this is my

830
00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:48,040
Speaker 3: answer as well. I want to see the Bears add

831
00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:50,680
Speaker 3: to that old line because I think a lot of

832
00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:53,000
Speaker 3: it is and you hear quarterbacks talk about that, that

833
00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:55,879
Speaker 3: clock just starts going in your head, and like he

834
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:59,919
Speaker 3: led the league in unblocked QB pressures and unblocked sex

835
00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:02,560
Speaker 3: which like if you're on block, you were getting there

836
00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:06,480
Speaker 3: in less than two seconds usually, So like that he

837
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:08,799
Speaker 3: had to have alarm bells going off in his head.

838
00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:12,320
Speaker 3: And at on top of that, his OC got fired

839
00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:15,279
Speaker 3: midway through the year. His head coach was on the

840
00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:18,239
Speaker 3: chopping block the entire Like it was just such kind

841
00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:22,399
Speaker 3: of a lost season for Caleb and the Bears, one

842
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:25,800
Speaker 3: that started off pretty encouraging. But to your point, Mark's

843
00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:28,040
Speaker 3: about the no interceptions, Like he was very vocal that,

844
00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:30,160
Speaker 3: like taking care of the ball was his top priority

845
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:33,200
Speaker 3: last season, and he did well at that. I trust

846
00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:35,800
Speaker 3: the weapons they have there with more and at donsday

847
00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:37,879
Speaker 3: and cool comet. He now has one of the best

848
00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:40,920
Speaker 3: play callers in football if you give him some time.

849
00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:43,440
Speaker 3: Because like the holding onto the ball thing, one hundred

850
00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:45,759
Speaker 3: percent agree. But I think Ben Johnson is going to

851
00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:47,399
Speaker 3: be able to coach that out of him, like good

852
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:49,920
Speaker 3: coaches could kind of get rid of these bad habits.

853
00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:51,839
Speaker 3: And if you get rid of that bad habit, we

854
00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:55,800
Speaker 3: know all the physical skills are there. So I'm still

855
00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:59,239
Speaker 3: very very excited for Caleb, and I don't know if

856
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:01,480
Speaker 3: he'll be cheaper this year because of Ben Johnson. But

857
00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:04,000
Speaker 3: he's certainly not going to be more expensive, So I.

858
00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:06,840
Speaker 2: Like that, right, Yeah, no, that's true.

859
00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:09,040
Speaker 1: The one that jumps out to me is I just

860
00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:12,359
Speaker 1: want the Broncos to find a running back, good luck.

861
00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:13,879
Speaker 2: I just want only care I think here which one

862
00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:14,319
Speaker 2: it could be?

863
00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:17,080
Speaker 1: Somebody on the roster, like it just just Sean Payton,

864
00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:19,799
Speaker 1: for the love of all this holy just pick one.

865
00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:20,720
Speaker 2: Just pick a guy.

866
00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:21,960
Speaker 3: Are you drafting one?

867
00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:26,480
Speaker 1: I guess it depends who it is and and how

868
00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:30,520
Speaker 1: many other guys potentially that player might be rotating with.

869
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:34,000
Speaker 3: I just remember the weeks of Aldric Estimate hype and

870
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:36,000
Speaker 3: then he had like fifteen carries in the next week.

871
00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:37,120
Speaker 3: He didn't play.

872
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:40,960
Speaker 4: Like it was just I'm not trusting it. Nope.

873
00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:46,640
Speaker 1: I mean, look, if you combined Javonte Williams and Julia

874
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:52,160
Speaker 1: McLoughlin and Oudric Estimate into one running back, they ran

875
00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:55,879
Speaker 1: for thirteen hundred yards, right, they were for thirteen hundred

876
00:40:55,920 --> 00:41:00,320
Speaker 1: yards and they had seven touchdowns. Like that's not bad, ad.

877
00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:03,920
Speaker 1: Pick a guy. Bo Knicks has shown that he can

878
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:08,320
Speaker 1: be something. Uh, you know, Cortland Sutton had a fantastic

879
00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:13,200
Speaker 1: year last year. We saw some flashes from Devon Valle. Uh,

880
00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:15,920
Speaker 1: you know Marvin Memes we all still think is really talented,

881
00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:19,160
Speaker 1: and I guess his name. I think I think Sean

882
00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:23,280
Speaker 1: Payton's any believes in Marvin Mims, but his auty doesn't,

883
00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:26,640
Speaker 1: or vice versa. I'm not sure, but like it's like

884
00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:29,160
Speaker 1: because Sean Payton talks about Marvin Mems like like he

885
00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:31,839
Speaker 1: is severed right, like like one part of him talking

886
00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:33,920
Speaker 1: about Marvin Mims, like we got to get this guy involved,

887
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:35,680
Speaker 1: and then like when they go to the games, like

888
00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:37,560
Speaker 1: we don't see Marvin Mems anymore. Like I don't understand

889
00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:38,080
Speaker 1: how that works.

890
00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:41,200
Speaker 3: Why is she just stating facts that line?

891
00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:46,040
Speaker 4: I do feel like he knows what he looks like

892
00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:47,880
Speaker 4: with his helmet off, but when he's on the sideline

893
00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:49,000
Speaker 4: in his hell name, he's like who are you?

894
00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:52,000
Speaker 3: He's like he walst into the stadium and he just forgets,

895
00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:55,800
Speaker 3: like the whole week he's like Aldrick estimate Marvin Mimes

896
00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:56,479
Speaker 3: like can't wait.

897
00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:59,320
Speaker 2: And then he walks in and he's like, where's where's Memes?

898
00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:01,880
Speaker 1: Where's Like there's a guy next to wearing nineteen Like

899
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:05,480
Speaker 1: I'm right here, coach, Like you know, yeah, I don't

900
00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:07,399
Speaker 1: know I can't figure that out, so.

901
00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:12,000
Speaker 2: That that was a ride, this whole little segue here.

902
00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:13,680
Speaker 2: I did not intend for it to be that way,

903
00:42:13,719 --> 00:42:15,040
Speaker 2: but it was a little bit of a ride.

904
00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:18,480
Speaker 1: In season, we will dive more into free agency a

905
00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:21,399
Speaker 1: little bit next week. We will start with quarterbacks on

906
00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:23,520
Speaker 1: Tuesday and kind of going through some of the free

907
00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:26,080
Speaker 1: agent quarterbacks and where we think they should go to

908
00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:29,200
Speaker 1: one and so forth. We already know that Lawan is

909
00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:31,520
Speaker 1: putting Matthew Stafford back in Los Angeles, so we'll skip

910
00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:33,120
Speaker 1: that one, but for the rest of them, we'll try

911
00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:35,440
Speaker 1: and work some things out. In the meantime, it is

912
00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:38,520
Speaker 1: Oscar weekend. I've seen none of the movies. Maybe one,

913
00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:40,799
Speaker 1: I think done two. That's about it. But we're gonna

914
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:43,000
Speaker 1: talk some about Oscars in terms of sports movies, and

915
00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:44,920
Speaker 1: we're gonna, I don't know, be silly for another ten

916
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:46,520
Speaker 1: or fifteen minutes. So I'll stick around for more of

917
00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:53,839
Speaker 1: the NFL Fantasy Football Show coming up on Sunday. It

918
00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:59,040
Speaker 1: is the latest presentation of the Oscars, the ninety seventh

919
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:05,040
Speaker 1: Motion Picture Academy Awards coming up this weekend, and if

920
00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:09,840
Speaker 1: you've seen multiple of the nominated films.

921
00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:10,600
Speaker 3: I don't even know which ones are.

922
00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:17,680
Speaker 2: I'm not good about seeing the movies.

923
00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:20,759
Speaker 1: Usually what happens is I watched the Oscars and I

924
00:43:20,880 --> 00:43:23,480
Speaker 1: use that to determine what movies I should be watching,

925
00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:25,960
Speaker 1: like in the next few months. I'm like, Oh, this

926
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:27,400
Speaker 1: movie want a whole bunch of awards. I literally go

927
00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:28,719
Speaker 1: check it out.

928
00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:30,760
Speaker 4: My mom did Deavi with Life of Pie.

929
00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:34,239
Speaker 2: I read the book, which was fantastic. Yeah, it was

930
00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:35,680
Speaker 2: okay that the book was really great.

931
00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 4: Never seen.

932
00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:40,240
Speaker 2: I think the the.

933
00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:41,240
Speaker 1: One that I have seen, at least, of the Best

934
00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:44,680
Speaker 1: Picture nominees. The only one I've seen for the Best

935
00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:46,319
Speaker 1: Picture nominees is Doune two.

936
00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:47,359
Speaker 2: That's it.

937
00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:49,120
Speaker 3: I haven't seen that yet.

938
00:43:49,520 --> 00:43:53,480
Speaker 4: I haven't been either. Maybe it's a Rial Film Festival thing.

939
00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:53,840
Speaker 2: It was.

940
00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:56,160
Speaker 1: It was good to see on a big, big screen. Uh,

941
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:57,839
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know the rest of these. I'll

942
00:43:57,920 --> 00:43:59,799
Speaker 1: kind of figure out after Sunday what or not what

943
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:02,160
Speaker 1: which ones I want to be watching. But I did

944
00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:05,200
Speaker 1: think about this in terms of sports movies because seventeen

945
00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:08,920
Speaker 1: movies seventeen sports movies have been nominated for Best Picture,

946
00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:12,839
Speaker 1: three of them have won. Rocky in nineteen seventy seven

947
00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:16,439
Speaker 1: won the Best Picture Jerriot's a Fire in nineteen eighty two,

948
00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:21,640
Speaker 1: which is a movie about running or something, and Million

949
00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:24,600
Speaker 1: Dollar Baby in two thousand and five, which I guess

950
00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:27,279
Speaker 1: is about boxing. I saw that movie and didn't really

951
00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:28,960
Speaker 1: know what was gonna happen, and so when the big

952
00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:30,520
Speaker 1: moment of the movie happened, I was like.

953
00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:35,120
Speaker 3: Oh, same. Oh there's two movies. I'm not afraid to

954
00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:37,520
Speaker 3: admit that. I was completely like, I was like, why

955
00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:40,920
Speaker 3: am I so emotional right now? It's that and Click,

956
00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:44,080
Speaker 3: Like those two movies call me completely off guard.

957
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:47,760
Speaker 2: Wait Click with Adam Sandler, Yeah.

958
00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:49,760
Speaker 3: You go into thinking it's gonna be an Adam Sandler

959
00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:51,960
Speaker 3: funny movie and like his whole life is going and

960
00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:54,680
Speaker 3: he's crying, and like it's a sad movie.

961
00:44:55,280 --> 00:44:57,279
Speaker 1: What. I will admit that I've never seen it, but

962
00:44:57,320 --> 00:44:59,400
Speaker 1: I did not anticipate that being the one.

963
00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:03,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, dealing with like the loss of family members and stuff,

964
00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:06,960
Speaker 3: and like we gotta watch Click. Come on, Marcus, you

965
00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:11,600
Speaker 3: don't think it's a sad movie, lakwan No, it's it's.

966
00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:13,920
Speaker 4: Definitely sad in the sense like now that I'm remembering,

967
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:16,560
Speaker 4: there is moments as like, oh dang, this guy's life

968
00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:17,280
Speaker 4: is missed.

969
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:22,520
Speaker 5: Like I don't know what I would do in that situation,

970
00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:25,160
Speaker 5: like wow, I mean shout out to him.

971
00:45:25,160 --> 00:45:27,400
Speaker 3: Getting to the end of that movie, I saw a

972
00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:29,520
Speaker 3: million Dollar Baby in theaters and I was.

973
00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:30,719
Speaker 2: Not ready for that. Yeah.

974
00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:33,320
Speaker 4: I thought I thought you were gonna say Hardball, because

975
00:45:33,360 --> 00:45:34,280
Speaker 4: that's the one.

976
00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:36,240
Speaker 2: That made me cry with g baby.

977
00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:40,520
Speaker 3: Oh Hardball is another one, but I was warned ahead

978
00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:44,160
Speaker 3: of time, like the something happens in this movie. Oh,

979
00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:45,479
Speaker 3: so I was a little on.

980
00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:48,560
Speaker 4: Prepared for that one was off guard man that that

981
00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:50,600
Speaker 4: hit the soul that still hurts man.

982
00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:52,240
Speaker 3: Baby.

983
00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:56,719
Speaker 1: So then that begs the question like is there a

984
00:45:56,719 --> 00:45:58,640
Speaker 1: sports movie that deserved an Oscar?

985
00:45:58,680 --> 00:46:00,680
Speaker 2: And I'm guessing, lakwan, You're gonna say Hardball.

986
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:05,759
Speaker 4: Yes, absolutely, that deserves it. Yes, because I cried, like

987
00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:08,040
Speaker 4: I was, like why am I crying? And like it

988
00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:13,880
Speaker 4: feels like it's my little brother, Like geez, no.

989
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:20,600
Speaker 1: Okay again, I'm sort of derailed by this whole thing.

990
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:23,040
Speaker 3: Have you never seen hardall, Marcus, I've never.

991
00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:26,280
Speaker 2: Seen Hardball either film festival. I mean.

992
00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:30,120
Speaker 1: Because Hardball, I think Hardball came out at it because

993
00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:31,680
Speaker 1: it was like aimed at an audience where like I

994
00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:34,360
Speaker 1: think I was just slightly older than the intended target

995
00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:36,880
Speaker 1: audience and so like I just never got around to

996
00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:41,080
Speaker 1: see her. Yeah, I mean I know, I know the

997
00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:44,319
Speaker 1: I know the premise, and I know the sad part

998
00:46:44,360 --> 00:46:47,960
Speaker 1: that everybody talks about. Ah, but yeah, I never I

999
00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:49,719
Speaker 1: never got around to it. Like I think I was

1000
00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:52,400
Speaker 1: just I was just too old. I was slightly older

1001
00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:55,520
Speaker 1: than the the intended audience for it.

1002
00:46:57,680 --> 00:46:59,600
Speaker 4: We robbed you. We should never told you what happened.

1003
00:46:59,600 --> 00:46:59,960
Speaker 4: I'm sorry.

1004
00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:03,200
Speaker 1: The Internet told me a long time ago, Like it

1005
00:47:03,239 --> 00:47:06,680
Speaker 1: wasn't just you guys, like don't fly to yourself.

1006
00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:09,320
Speaker 4: Super emotional.

1007
00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:11,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. I'm just trying to give a

1008
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:11,920
Speaker 2: movie like that.

1009
00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:14,520
Speaker 1: I that I like sports movie that I loved, Like

1010
00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:15,960
Speaker 1: I don't know the ones I have I reckon not

1011
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:19,279
Speaker 1: serious ones, right like White Men Can't Jump the original one,

1012
00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:21,319
Speaker 1: not the one with a great not the one with

1013
00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:25,399
Speaker 1: the one with the Jack Harlowe, not that one.

1014
00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:29,200
Speaker 3: Oh I forgot that happened. Woody Harrison, all day.

1015
00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:30,080
Speaker 2: Woody Harrelson.

1016
00:47:30,120 --> 00:47:32,200
Speaker 1: All the funny part about that is that Woody, of

1017
00:47:32,239 --> 00:47:34,160
Speaker 1: the two of them, Woody and Westley, apparently Woody is

1018
00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:38,040
Speaker 1: actually the real baller like Wesley's. Okay, Woody Harrelson. Apparently

1019
00:47:38,080 --> 00:47:40,640
Speaker 1: can Ball is everything I heard.

1020
00:47:41,080 --> 00:47:41,640
Speaker 4: I believe it.

1021
00:47:42,040 --> 00:47:44,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, Dodgeball, like Dodgeball should get an oscar.

1022
00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:49,799
Speaker 3: Dodgeball's great just because Moneyball. I love Moneyball, even though

1023
00:47:49,840 --> 00:47:50,880
Speaker 3: I know it's mostly fiction.

1024
00:47:51,560 --> 00:47:53,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's my problem.

1025
00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:55,719
Speaker 1: That's my problem with Moneyball is that when when the

1026
00:47:55,760 --> 00:47:58,120
Speaker 1: book hit, I think when the movie came out, I

1027
00:47:58,160 --> 00:48:00,560
Speaker 1: was actually working in the A's minor league, and so

1028
00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:03,839
Speaker 1: it's kind of like this is sort of true but

1029
00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:04,520
Speaker 1: not really.

1030
00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:06,040
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1031
00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:08,600
Speaker 3: I always felt like, don't watch it for factual stuff,

1032
00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:13,040
Speaker 3: but just as a baseball movie, it's really Uh. And also,

1033
00:48:13,200 --> 00:48:15,239
Speaker 3: my favorite movie as a kid was like Mike, So

1034
00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:21,000
Speaker 3: I'm going with that. Wow, movie has ever been better

1039
00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:32,920
Speaker 1: I did want to ask you, guys, I put this

1040
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:34,960

1042
00:48:37,920 --> 00:48:40,280

00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:55,600
Speaker 1: guys from the fifties and sixties, but like chances are

00:49:17,239 --> 00:49:18,799
Speaker 1: That was a big might have been just a little

1055
00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:22,319
Speaker 1: bit of an oversight by me looking out a long look.

1056
00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:24,239
Speaker 3: Shout out to Apple that they had a gift of

1057

Speaker 3: him as an actor like on the Red Carpet, because.

1058
00:49:27,520 --> 00:49:29,879

00:50:56,239 --> 00:50:59,400
Speaker 1: But I was explaining for the Kwan, who seems on

1091
00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:00,279
Speaker 1: an issue.

1092
00:51:00,320 --> 00:51:01,200
Speaker 2: With who he was.

1093
00:51:02,040 --> 00:51:05,160
Speaker 4: Equalizer was good. I mean, he didn't make any appearances

1094
00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:05,600
Speaker 4: in there.

1095
00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:12,000
Speaker 1: No, that was just his dad. Sorry, do you have

1096
00:51:12,040 --> 00:51:13,040
Speaker 1: a pick from this list.

1097
00:51:13,560 --> 00:51:17,600
Speaker 3: Floria Terry Creuz is the funniest by far. I'll go

1098
00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:20,239
Speaker 3: with the Rock though, to be different, Like, there's only

1099
00:51:20,280 --> 00:51:22,760
Speaker 3: one of these five dudes that are able to flex

1100
00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:25,879
Speaker 3: out of a cast fresh off of Broken Arm, and

1101
00:51:25,880 --> 00:51:30,160
Speaker 3: that is Dwayne the Rock Johnson. Actually, one of my

1102
00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:32,279
Speaker 3: favorite parts about all the Rock movies is at some

1103
00:51:32,400 --> 00:51:34,960
Speaker 3: point in time he becomes the wrestler rock again. You

1104
00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:36,920
Speaker 3: just don't know when it's going to happen.

1105
00:51:39,239 --> 00:51:39,800
Speaker 2: Out of nowhere.

1106
00:51:40,200 --> 00:51:42,279
Speaker 3: Legitimately hit the rock bottom in the Fast of the

1107
00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:45,719
Speaker 3: Furious movie, Yes no, and then the Rundown he hit

1108
00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:49,440
Speaker 3: the rock bottom walking tall he had walking till in

1109
00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:51,400
Speaker 3: The Rundown came out in the same summer. I believe

1110
00:51:51,440 --> 00:51:55,600
Speaker 3: they're the same movie. You can't convince me they're both

1111
00:51:55,600 --> 00:51:56,480
Speaker 3: on train tracks.

1112
00:51:56,520 --> 00:51:58,759
Speaker 4: I think, like, yeah, which one did he go in

1113
00:51:58,800 --> 00:52:00,840
Speaker 4: the club and like beat up the ball players? I

1114
00:52:00,960 --> 00:52:03,920
Speaker 4: literally forget that right now he walked in.

1115
00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:06,120
Speaker 3: That's real.

1116
00:52:06,200 --> 00:52:07,280
Speaker 2: Then it's the same movie.

1117
00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:11,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, I can't tell you. He's a Scorpion King. I mean, man, the.

1118
00:52:11,840 --> 00:52:14,480
Speaker 2: Scorpion King was that was fun. That was a fun movie.

1119
00:52:14,680 --> 00:52:17,400
Speaker 3: Rank's favorite movie is San Andreas.

1120
00:52:16,719 --> 00:52:23,680
Speaker 1: Like skyscraper. Skyscraper is cinema. I'm just like, uh, I

1121
00:52:23,760 --> 00:52:27,080
Speaker 1: need the was that the one with the rock where

1122
00:52:27,080 --> 00:52:29,760
Speaker 1: he's a yeah skyscraper where.

1123
00:52:29,560 --> 00:52:37,080
Speaker 2: He's a you know in a Okay, yes, you know

1124
00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:39,600
Speaker 2: I really forgot. Yeah.

1125
00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:42,560
Speaker 1: So so my answer was going to be Carl Weathers,

1126
00:52:42,719 --> 00:52:45,640
Speaker 1: because I mean it was Apollo Creed.

1127
00:52:46,440 --> 00:52:47,600
Speaker 2: He was Chubbs.

1128
00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:53,280
Speaker 1: Peterson in Yeah, in Happy Gilmore, he was Grief Carga

1129
00:52:53,320 --> 00:52:54,280
Speaker 1: and the Mandalorian.

1130
00:52:56,360 --> 00:52:57,520
Speaker 2: Shout out to Carl Weathers.

1131
00:52:57,760 --> 00:52:59,400
Speaker 3: He has a lot of iconic characters.

1132
00:52:59,400 --> 00:53:01,440
Speaker 4: Now that you men, I'm about to say, that's a

1133
00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:04,400
Speaker 4: healthy resume right there, just off of those three movies.

1134
00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:06,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, that's a it's a solid.

1135
00:53:06,520 --> 00:53:08,200
Speaker 3: Apollo Creek deserved better, man.

1136
00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:11,640
Speaker 4: Yeah man, he didn't have to. They should have just

1137
00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:12,319
Speaker 4: injured him.

1138
00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:14,320
Speaker 1: You talk about movies where I like, you get emotional,

1139
00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:16,000
Speaker 1: like I saw that movie in the theater with my

1140
00:53:16,080 --> 00:53:18,640
Speaker 1: dad and I knew what was going to happen, and

1141
00:53:18,680 --> 00:53:23,120
Speaker 1: it's still it's still hurt. Like it's still hurt.

1142
00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:26,120
Speaker 3: Rocky for is the best propaganda ever made.

1143
00:53:26,200 --> 00:53:29,000
Speaker 1: Oh it's absolutely the best propaganda. If I could change,

1144
00:53:29,320 --> 00:53:31,840
Speaker 1: and you just could change, we all could change.

1145
00:53:32,120 --> 00:53:35,000
Speaker 3: Imagine like the other country cheering for the event like

1146
00:53:35,040 --> 00:53:37,120
Speaker 3: that would never happen. But it makes me laugh every.

1147
00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:39,920
Speaker 1: Time I watch it. It is absolutely American propaganda.

1148
00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:43,160
Speaker 2: It is. It is hilarious for sure.

1149
00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:45,439
Speaker 1: Is anybody out there now, anybody playing in the league

1150
00:53:45,480 --> 00:53:46,960
Speaker 1: now you think could break through as an actor? I

1151
00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:48,839
Speaker 1: mean Travis Kelsey seems like the number one.

1152
00:53:49,239 --> 00:53:50,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the obvious one.

1153
00:53:50,600 --> 00:53:54,640
Speaker 4: Answer, Aaron Donald. He's mentioned it many times. I mean,

1154
00:53:55,680 --> 00:53:57,120
Speaker 4: he could play a serious guy.

1155
00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:00,680
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm surprised they just haven't cast him as

1156
00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:04,960
Speaker 2: the Hulk yet. You know, he's still fit. He is huge,

1157
00:54:05,040 --> 00:54:06,480
Speaker 2: I mean like he's I mean, I get it. I

1158
00:54:06,480 --> 00:54:06,759
Speaker 2: get it.

1159
00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:09,759
Speaker 1: He's not the tallest guy, but he's got the physique

1160
00:54:09,760 --> 00:54:10,000
Speaker 1: for it.

1161
00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:13,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, fantastic four. You on need no cgi. He just

1162
00:54:13,239 --> 00:54:13,799
Speaker 4: shows up.

1163
00:54:13,960 --> 00:54:17,040
Speaker 2: He just takes a shirt, you know, he just does

1164
00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:17,520
Speaker 2: his thing.

1165
00:54:18,560 --> 00:54:20,360
Speaker 3: I don't know how good his acting skills are, but

1166
00:54:20,560 --> 00:54:22,600
Speaker 3: Jalen Hurts one hundred percent has the look of it

1167
00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:24,279
Speaker 3: like he does. He could be a lead in any

1168
00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:25,480
Speaker 3: any movie right now.

1169
00:54:26,040 --> 00:54:29,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, he absolutely does have the look of it for sure.

1170
00:54:30,200 --> 00:54:30,439
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1171
00:54:30,480 --> 00:54:32,200
Speaker 1: It just it feels like this is a very much

1172
00:54:32,200 --> 00:54:34,040
Speaker 1: a a Travis Kelce runaway.

1173
00:54:35,520 --> 00:54:36,280
Speaker 4: James Minton.

1174
00:54:36,920 --> 00:54:40,480
Speaker 3: I'm a homer. But since because of the Hailey Steinfeld connection,

1175
00:54:40,520 --> 00:54:42,879
Speaker 3: I've seen people say Josh Allen, but I'm like, no, no, no,

1176
00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:45,320
Speaker 3: let's let's not think about that for another twenty years.

1177
00:54:45,600 --> 00:54:47,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean right now, like I can see him

1178
00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:49,680
Speaker 1: doing like a cameo, like a walk on cameo, like,

1179
00:54:49,719 --> 00:54:50,080
Speaker 1: you know.

1180
00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:53,719
Speaker 3: No, open the door, don't do that. No, I don't

1181
00:54:53,760 --> 00:54:54,120
Speaker 3: want that.

1182
00:54:54,520 --> 00:54:59,080
Speaker 1: Likett Farv's Wooden cameo and something about Mary or whatever

1183
00:54:59,160 --> 00:55:00,560
Speaker 1: or something like that, which.

1184
00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:02,560
Speaker 4: Is supposed to be like three other quarterbacks apparently.

1185
00:55:02,880 --> 00:55:05,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, Joe Burrow has like he could be an actor

1186
00:55:05,440 --> 00:55:05,719
Speaker 3: right now.

1187
00:55:05,719 --> 00:55:07,719
Speaker 1: Burrow could be there, although I think he's trying to

1188
00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:12,360
Speaker 1: you know, that won't help him beat the Macaulay Culchan allegations.

1189
00:55:13,800 --> 00:55:16,840
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield I think has the personality to do something

1190
00:55:16,920 --> 00:55:17,279
Speaker 1: like that.

1191
00:55:17,640 --> 00:55:19,400
Speaker 3: He's definitely the best actor in the NFL that Like,

1192
00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:20,799
Speaker 3: his commercials were legit good.

1193
00:55:20,880 --> 00:55:23,279
Speaker 1: They were they were actually funny. Yeah, they were very

1194
00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:24,160
Speaker 1: funny for sure.

1195
00:55:25,239 --> 00:55:25,600
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1196
00:55:25,640 --> 00:55:28,200
Speaker 1: So that's just a little something fun to to kind

1197
00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:31,080
Speaker 1: of kick around and head of the oscars. So I

1198
00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:32,959
Speaker 1: watch it because it's like it's like the only award

1199
00:55:32,960 --> 00:55:35,160
Speaker 1: show that I actually care about the rest of them.

1200
00:55:35,160 --> 00:55:37,160
Speaker 1: I sort of like they're on the background, like the

1201
00:55:37,200 --> 00:55:38,440
Speaker 1: oscars I actually care about.

1202
00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:39,920
Speaker 2: Like I said, even though I haven't seen the movies.

1203
00:55:40,760 --> 00:55:42,080
Speaker 3: That's NFL Honors for me.

1204
00:55:42,440 --> 00:55:43,520
Speaker 2: That's what it's the most fun.

1205
00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:50,319
Speaker 1: I think you such a good company guy I care about.

1206
00:55:50,400 --> 00:55:53,600
Speaker 2: After I tried to get rid of the draft earlier

1207
00:55:53,600 --> 00:55:54,240
Speaker 2: in the show.

1208
00:55:56,560 --> 00:55:58,640
Speaker 3: Get the draft, the awards.

1209
00:55:58,600 --> 00:56:00,920

00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:08,600
Speaker 1: nonsense we can get into. I'm sure we have a

1213
00:56:08,640 --> 00:56:10,879
Speaker 1: recap of the combine too as well, since we will

1214

1215
00:56:14,680 --> 00:56:15,400

Speaker 2: The reaction absolutely.

Speaker 1: Because by now, you know, by by Monday, someone will

1218
00:56:20,000 --> 00:56:23,480
Speaker 1: have dropped out of the first round altogether. Somebody you've
