16
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:03,360

17
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:05,480
Speaker 1: that the podcast listener would have no idea they're going

18
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:07,000
Speaker 1: to download it. Whenever they go, oh, hey, I mean

19
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 1: they might be it might come up like fifteen minutes

20
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,160

25
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 1: now we've got it. Now, Okay, it's the wide receiver

26
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 1: prognosticator that's at Harmon. That sounds terrible. Why is that whisperer?

27
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,959
Speaker 1: I can't say it? So we're not going with so

28
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:38,039
Speaker 1: we're we're going with the white out prognosticator, Matthew Harmon.

29
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 1: I don't really care what you call me. It's fine.

30
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 1: You can call me whatever you want, all right, you

31
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 1: already call me anything. Anything is a step up from idiot. Awesome,

32
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 1: who's an idiot? There? It lives, it lives? Uh then okay,

33
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 1: then great, we will call you West Virginia's finest uh whatever.

34
00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 1: At this point, I can't, I was gonna start ailing

35
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 1: into the current. We continue our divisional breakdown of every

36
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 1: division here in the NFL from Fantasy perspective. This week

Speaker 1: we shall talk or this episode, we shall talk about

38
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 1: the A f c West, Broncos, Raiders, Chiefs and Chargers,

39
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:21,720

Speaker 1: one to each league, the O G League, the Bearded League.

42
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:30,240
Speaker 1: Have we decided? Is that what we're calling it, Marcus,

43
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 1: since we did this last year league, I think you

44
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:34,640
Speaker 1: should call it the O G The O G League

45
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 1: is Yeah, that's strong. Okay, that is strong league. The

Speaker 1: Bearded League featuring the Chise and Fine as well as

47
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,919
Speaker 1: the danger Zone League with myself and Adam Ranks. So

48
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 1: it's gonna be good. Um So I'm looking forward to that.

49
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:50,920
Speaker 1: But let's get let's get this thing kicking off. Man,

50
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 1: let's talk top news, the camera highlights in the world

51
00:02:55,480 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 1: of sport, breaking news, freaking like the continue to follow

52
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:08,959
Speaker 1: breaking news as wife. You know, I do need to

53
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 1: update this, don't I. I feel like we've run its

54
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 1: course on this guy. No, I love this drop, yeah,

55
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,359
Speaker 1: I mean, just maybe add some more. I'm with James,

56
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:21,239
Speaker 1: I'm over it. Okay, alright, you would be even mean,

57
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,920
Speaker 1: you know what it means. Top headline out of Dallas,

58
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:29,360
Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott missing time with Apparently there's one working hamstring

59
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,919
Speaker 1: in the entire NFL. Yep, and it belongs to the

60
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 1: Arian Foster that's on borrowed time my friend. Alright, Elliott

61
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,120
Speaker 1: missing time with a hamstring? What does it mean? How

62
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 1: much are we freaking out? Zero percent? I'm not hitting

63
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 1: the panic. I'm drafting Alfred Morris now, isn't he? Oh

64
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 1: my god? Really? First of all? What I mean I

65
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 1: was thinking about this on on the way in. Um.

66
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 1: You know, Deavante Freeman was the number one scoring running

67
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: back in Fantasy last year and he's like just been

68
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 1: tossed aside to like deep late second round status. Right.

69
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 1: Weren't you the one that tossed him there? I drove

70
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 1: that train, Yes I did, indeed. But has anyone been

71
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 1: tossed aside further than Darren McFadden, a man who generated

72
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 1: four hundred yards uh last year and we're just saying

73
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:24,279
Speaker 1: no this he's not even now just now. So what

74
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 1: I think it was funny is that, you know, Darren

75
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 1: McFadden had had a good year last year, did and

76
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 1: people thought, okay, I don't think anybody was overly hyped

77
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:33,720
Speaker 1: on it, but they thought, okay, maybe he can be

78
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 1: you know, a nice stop gap for my fantasy roster.

79
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 1: Then they signed Alfred Morris. You're like, then they got

80
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott. It was like, well it yeah, It's it's

81
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 1: interesting too because, um, you know, the the handcuff situation

82
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 1: behind Zeke is. I don't think it's that clear. Darren

83
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,479
Speaker 1: mcfatten there, Um, obviously he had I think a a

84
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:59,720
Speaker 1: offseason injury. Shocking, I know. Uh. And then as franchise mentioned,

85
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 1: Alfred Morris is there as well, so um, you know,

86
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 1: again it's way too early to to be freaking out

87
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:08,360
Speaker 1: about it. But anytime a rookie is gonna miss time

88
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 1: getting acclimated to the NFL game, that's not good. Um.

89
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:14,359
Speaker 1: And so we'll keep an eye on it obviously. All right.

90
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,919
Speaker 1: How about Matt Forte. Uh, this is I think a

91
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 1: lot more concerning coaching staff saying he's gonna miss the

92
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:24,280
Speaker 1: first preseason game, maybe more. Um. And again he also

93
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,800
Speaker 1: has some kind of hamstring issue. So I don't know

94
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,039
Speaker 1: what do we make of this. Obviously he's getting a

95
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 1: little bit older. It's not like he's you know, way

96
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:34,720
Speaker 1: over the hill. And you know, when when you think

97
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:37,280
Speaker 1: about Matt fourte, he's only missed eight games over his

98
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 1: last eight seasons, so he's incredibly durable. I don't necessarily

99
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,280
Speaker 1: know that he needs the preseason game work as a

100
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 1: matter of fact, No he doesn't. Well yeah, but he's

101
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 1: in a new offense. That's what That's what it is.

102
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 1: So how what are we making this? Well, what worries

103
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:55,039
Speaker 1: me it's it's not the the injury. Um, it's not

104
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 1: even really the new offense so much. It's this talk

105
00:05:57,839 --> 00:05:59,599
Speaker 1: that he and baal Pal could end up with a

106
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 1: fairly even split in the backfield. That is what concerns me.

107
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,600
Speaker 1: Pretty definitive talk to like, that's been the tone all

108
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,719
Speaker 1: off season. And I know we talked about the the

109
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 1: NFC South Last podcast, which feels like a thousand years ago,

110
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 1: because three days ago, God, that feels like a long

111
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:18,120
Speaker 1: time ago. Um, but you know, I talked about Charles

112
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 1: Sims is one of my favorite picks in the draft

113
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,480
Speaker 1: because if the starter were to get hurt, he would

114
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 1: assume not only all the receiving workload, but all the

115
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,320
Speaker 1: rushing workload. Black Pal is kind of like the same proposition,

116
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,920
Speaker 1: you know in the double digit rounds. I I actually,

117
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 1: um Moniche Meta, the beat reporter for New York Daily

118
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 1: News for the jets Um. He told me about a

119
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 1: month ago on Twitter. I asked him, Um, Humble, does

120
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,600
Speaker 1: he think Powell could be a three down guy if

121
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 1: Forte were to go down? And he said no, in

122
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:52,559
Speaker 1: that case, they'd go with Powell and Kyrie Robinson because

123
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 1: Powell tends to get nicked up to So I don't

124
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 1: know if Powell has the three down abilities that some

125
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:00,840
Speaker 1: that we might expect he would have board he went down,

126
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 1: but he's still I think he's still a value pick

127
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 1: because they're expecting major touches and a split workload there.

128
00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 1: So I feel like Hyrie Robinson has been a handcuff

129
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 1: for about fourteen years. Yeah, career backup. He's just had

130
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 1: such bad luck with injuries too. All right, all right,

131
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 1: anything else to make of that news? I mean, keep

132
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 1: an eye on it, that's for sure. Take Powell late.

133
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 1: He's a bargain pick. Wouldn't touch for his current asking price.

134
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 1: What is it right now? Is it's still around three Yeah,

135
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:31,360
Speaker 1: you could stay around three fourth at best, So yeah,

136
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:35,240
Speaker 1: that's pretty That scares me. Alshon Jeffrey also missing time

137
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:39,000
Speaker 1: with Sam String. This is why we can't have nice

138
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 1: things just you know, I mean, because I want to

139
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 1: be excited about Alic Sean. Oh my gosh, I want

140
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 1: to be so excited and I'm not. And I'm not

141
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:50,400
Speaker 1: suggesting that this means you run screaming from Alishan Jeffrey,

142
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 1: but it is that little reminder of why everybody is

143
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 1: cautious about him. Why you know, when you sit there

144
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:01,119
Speaker 1: and you are, you know in the late second, early

145
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 1: third round, why you may hesitate on him because you

146
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:08,320
Speaker 1: know last year it was it was waiting and waiting

147
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 1: and waiting for him to come back and waiting for

148
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 1: him to be healthy. And I just you know, nobody

149
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 1: wants to go through that for a guy that is

150
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 1: potentially a wide receiver one. But John Fox is so

151
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 1: clear about injuries all that. Ye I mean he will

152
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 1: let you know. Right. It's the worst um uh the

153
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 1: thing with Alsa. And it's so sad too, because I

154
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:28,680
Speaker 1: was thinking about this a couple of days ago. Man,

155
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 1: I'm like, have well ranked alshon Jeffrey too low. I

156
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 1: was watching game tape of Alsjon Jeffrey. You look at

157
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 1: some of the game logs for Alsjon Jeffrey, and you're like,

158
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: this guy's upbeast. If he plays sixteen, it's like eighteen

159
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:45,560
Speaker 1: hundred and fifteen are totally doable for for his talent level. Man.

160
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:49,400
Speaker 1: But no, you're right. The injury concerns, I mean they're there.

161
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,439
Speaker 1: I don't know. Uh, you're right. I feel I feel

162
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:57,600
Speaker 1: sad because he is when he's on the field, I mean,

163
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 1: truly a special player. But I don't know. Man, We're

164
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 1: gonna have to keep a close eye on the hams

165
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:05,040
Speaker 1: ring and we'll see what's up. Jordan Matthews injured a

166
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:10,800
Speaker 1: practice severity unknown that just happened, literally just happened this morning. Yeah,

167
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:14,360
Speaker 1: it's I thought. I saw later on that he's quote

168
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:19,200
Speaker 1: unquote fine. Not that that's very clear at all. Yeah,

169
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:24,560
Speaker 1: Jordan Matthews appears fine. Oh great. Well, he doesn't necessarily

170
00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:27,080
Speaker 1: have an injury history either, so I'm not too worried about.

171
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 1: I just expected to be sore for a couple of days.

172
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,199
Speaker 1: I guess my question more for Jordan Matthews is where

173
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,079
Speaker 1: does he fit in this offense? Because we're not exactly

174
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 1: sure yet. Right, Like, he's been described generally as a

175
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:40,679
Speaker 1: big slot guy. Um, does the slot get a lot

176
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 1: of work in this Doug Peterson offense? So from do

177
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 1: we know yet? This comes from from Neil Hornsby, the

178
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:52,240
Speaker 1: founder of PFF like not including pace related because obviously

179
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,559
Speaker 1: the Eagles under Chip Kelly played a ton of snaps

180
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 1: and that volume inflated the offense. Not including that just

181
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:01,680
Speaker 1: on if he only plays as a slot receiver, if

182
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,040
Speaker 1: he doesn't play on the outside, he's set to lose

183
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 1: over two snaps if if he only plays in the slot. Now,

184
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 1: I think he would still I think he would still

185
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,480
Speaker 1: play as the flanker on the outside. Yeah, that doesn't

186
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,319
Speaker 1: make it. That doesn't I don't. I don't think he

187
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 1: would just exclusively be a slot receiver. But that's just

188
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 1: because the Chiefs under Doug Peterson pretty strictly ran two

189
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 1: wide receivers, not three out there on most of the snaps. Well,

190
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:25,079
Speaker 1: he's running, I mean, he's gonna be right two receivers

191
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 1: out there, I would think so, But we don't know

192
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 1: that he can beat man coverage on the outside at

193
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:33,000
Speaker 1: the NFL level. He's run over his routes in the

194
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 1: last two years from the slot. The only one with

195
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,960
Speaker 1: more I think last year was Randall Cobb. I would imagine, though,

196
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 1: I mean again, I've never seen I don't make it

197
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,920
Speaker 1: a happy to watch Vanderbilt games. But um, I would

198
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,199
Speaker 1: imagine someone of his talent level played on the outside

199
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,960
Speaker 1: at Vanderbilt. I would imagine, I mean, he's gotta know

200
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 1: how to play out there. No, they weren't reports earlier

201
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,080
Speaker 1: this year that they tried him outside and then shifted

202
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,200
Speaker 1: him right back to the slot because he didn't have

203
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,800
Speaker 1: the makeup out there to beat that press man coverage. Yeah,

204
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 1: so so I think it was. Yeah, Doug Peterson basically said, yeah,

205
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,240
Speaker 1: we're gonna tryhim outside, and then even in mini camps,

206
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:09,480
Speaker 1: not even training camps, he goes, yeah, we're gonna he's

207
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 1: more of a slot receiver. Okay, what's his what's his

208
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:18,400
Speaker 1: draft draft? Press? Right now? Uh? He is currently on

209
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:23,720
Speaker 1: NFL dot com. Well, Marcus looks. Honestly, I'm still scrolling.

210
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 1: I'm I'm really not in on Jordan Matthews. I know

211
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:28,880
Speaker 1: that's kind of the point I was making, right Like,

212
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 1: I just even if he's going in like the I

213
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,440
Speaker 1: don't know, seventh to eighth, strange, he's a sixth round

214
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 1: of fantasy football ConfL dot com. He is a tenth

215
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 1: round guy for our fans, And I guess I don't know.

216
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:42,679
Speaker 1: I would rather I would have to take a shot

217
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 1: on those in those middle rounds, on a guy like

218
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 1: Tyler Lockhead or Marvin Jones or these other guys we've

219
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,960
Speaker 1: we've uttered someone with more upside well, and there's, like

220
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,280
Speaker 1: we've mentioned, whether or not he loses those two hundred snaps,

221
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:53,960
Speaker 1: there is a risk that his role is going to

222
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:57,400
Speaker 1: change a fair amount. And you know he his stats

223
00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 1: were inflated last year by a bunch of garbage time

224
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,319
Speaker 1: at the end of the year too. So if it

225
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,320
Speaker 1: if it drops down or he doesn't have nearly as

226
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:05,559
Speaker 1: big of a target share in that Philadelphia offense, which

227
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,160
Speaker 1: has a ton of questions under center, everything's coming up.

228
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 1: I'm just staying away. Yeah, No, I agree. I you're right.

229
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,559
Speaker 1: I think they've got quarterback question marks. Um again, I

230
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 1: don't know did if they actually did anything to help

231
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:21,080
Speaker 1: improve the offense um in any significant way. And it's

232
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 1: not like they ran it's not like they were a

233
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 1: good offense last year. Um, you know what I mean.

234
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:28,560
Speaker 1: So no, I agree. I think his current price tag,

235
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:30,679
Speaker 1: I don't know, man, I'm like looking around. He's one

236
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 1: of those guys where I just no matter where he falls,

237
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 1: I just find myself not drafting him, yeh, draft around him. Yeah,

238
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 1: he's what our pal Rumper Johnny calls a crawl space player,

239
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,920
Speaker 1: like they're ceiling and floor are so close to That's

240
00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 1: a great term for that, but I'd rather take a

241
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:46,960
Speaker 1: shot on Nelson agilor Late, who I just heard about

242
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:50,360
Speaker 1: this morning. The other thing. The other thing is Sam

243
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:52,760
Speaker 1: Bradford is the quarterback there, so yeah, that's a thing

244
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:55,800
Speaker 1: for now. He's a quarterback for now. And then got

245
00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 1: Chase Montana waiting in the wings. Beautiful uh in Miami

246
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 1: to Vante Parker twiked a hamstring. I'm shocking surprised. Jji

247
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:07,840
Speaker 1: is still working with that knee, and he's a literally

248
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:12,280
Speaker 1: coming back now. He returned the sport photographic evidence between

249
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:15,520
Speaker 1: printing the pod rundown and coming up here. That is

250
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 1: back on the field, although he may not be a

251
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 1: hundred percent. I like the way Rhoda World put it

252
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 1: in their news blurb here he he realizes he needs

253
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 1: to stay healthy or act healthy. He's going, I don't

254
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:29,680
Speaker 1: think that's a joke. I really truly think that has

255
00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:32,360
Speaker 1: something to do with it. I mean, he's seen Arian

256
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 1: Foster a practice, He's heard what everybody's talking about like yeah,

257
00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:37,960
Speaker 1: I mean, and this is this is the cold hard

258
00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:40,600
Speaker 1: reality of life in the NFL. You can lose your

259
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,080
Speaker 1: job at any point, especially when you have an experienced,

260
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:46,360
Speaker 1: talented veteran come in. So I do think that there's

261
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 1: a little bit of j g I that's like I

262
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,560
Speaker 1: gotta get back out there. Like yeah, we laugh about it,

263
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:52,079
Speaker 1: but I think there's a lot of truth in that.

264
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:55,480
Speaker 1: I don't disagree. First of all, I mean, the team

265
00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:59,680
Speaker 1: has nothing, nothing invested in j J I. What what

266
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:03,280
Speaker 1: is he fifth round draft pick pick the previous regime.

267
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:06,760
Speaker 1: They've got nothing invested in this guy. So no, he's

268
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,920
Speaker 1: you're a ride. He's got to get out there, and

269
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 1: you're right. I mean, it does sound funny to say, well,

270
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:15,600
Speaker 1: you should just act like you're but there's gotta there's

271
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 1: gotta be a lot of truth to that. The other

272
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 1: thing about this situation that I've seen a couple of

273
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:21,920
Speaker 1: times now is Adam Gaze has come out and said

274
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 1: about the backfield, he wants one guy to be out

275
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 1: there for all three downs. He doesn't want to have

276
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 1: a rotation. So if Foster wins the job, they're not

277
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:33,720
Speaker 1: going to be like putting a giant in on third

278
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:36,120
Speaker 1: downs or whatever whatever the case may be. They want

279
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 1: they want a bell cow. They want to even if

280
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 1: even if Gaese wants that, Um, it doesn't quite jive

281
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 1: with what he has, right, because it's not like Jay

282
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 1: a Giant, it's not. I mean, it's clear that they

283
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,160
Speaker 1: want to work in Arian Foster. I think he's saying

284
00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 1: that mostly because he wants to pump Arian Foster. But

285
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 1: how much can this coaching staff, how much can this

286
00:14:57,040 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 1: team really ride Arian Foster to give thirty carries a game?

287
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:04,000
Speaker 1: Can they? As as as Marcus Grant says, it's good

288
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 1: to want things. Um, you know, I want to get

289
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: back to the Devonte Parker thing. Right. So he's missed

290
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 1: the past four days of practice with his hamstring injury. Um,

291
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 1: and if you follow the Beat reporters down there, Miami Harold, etcetera, etcetera,

292
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 1: Kenny Stills running with the first team. Um, and apparently

293
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 1: he's doing well. So crew ran with the first team

294
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 1: in minicamps too, So there you go. UM, I guess

295
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:29,840
Speaker 1: forget about Kenny Stills for a second. We'll just we'll

296
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 1: still put him in you know, deep sleeper territory. But

297
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:35,640
Speaker 1: Devonte Parker has been a very popular sleeper pick for

298
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:39,360
Speaker 1: a lot of people this offseason. I'm starting to cool

299
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:45,160
Speaker 1: my jets considerably on Devonte Parker, considering, uh, the options

300
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 1: that are kind of in that offense. Welcome to the club.

301
00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 1: Part of one of my reasons for not being as

302
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:52,160
Speaker 1: high on him. I know, Harmon, you know, really studied

303
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 1: the tape and stuff and his I think his reception

304
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 1: perception numbers weren't great, but the second worst success rate

305
00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 1: versus press coverage in the series' history. For me, it

306
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 1: was also the fact that they still had Stills Landry's

307
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:06,160
Speaker 1: a target hog, and then they went and drafted Carew,

308
00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:08,240
Speaker 1: who I really like and can be it can be

309
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:11,040
Speaker 1: a strong outside receiver for them. I just worried that

310
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 1: people were over drafting Parker on those couple of splash

311
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:15,800
Speaker 1: plays and he might not have the volume to to

312
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 1: sustain that in an offense or make those plays on

313
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 1: a regular basis, and you could be coming up with

314
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 1: a lot of you know, ones and twos in your

315
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 1: in your fantasy roster on a week to week basis.

316
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 1: All Right, Davonte Parker right now going in probably on

317
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 1: NFL dot Com, he's going to I just feel like

318
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:35,080
Speaker 1: I feel like that whole receiving cord beyond Jarvis Landry

319
00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:36,800
Speaker 1: is it's really just pulled names out of a hat

320
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:38,840
Speaker 1: because we don't really know how this thing is gonna

321
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 1: shake out. It's it is truly pulling. So like Savante

322
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:44,400
Speaker 1: Parker gets the lead in this one because he was

323
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:46,320
Speaker 1: the guy who got the early hype. So he's the

324
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:48,320
Speaker 1: guy that you know, everybody is still on right now.

325
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,880
Speaker 1: And I honestly I don't even know. I like Jarvis Landry.

326
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 1: I like Jarvis Landry last year, and I would certainly

327
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 1: take him as like a wide receiver to this year.

328
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:58,520
Speaker 1: Um beyond that, I just I'm staying away, like I

329
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:00,920
Speaker 1: just don't know. I have no idea. You can't touch

330
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:04,280
Speaker 1: Parker in a single digit round opinion, So fast Football Acculator,

331
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:10,360
Speaker 1: He's going in the eighth round of standard standard team.

332
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,920
Speaker 1: Uh now, like you're right, it's a twelve team because

333
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:17,120
Speaker 1: that's what defaults too. So Devonte Barker going, yeah, uh

334
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 1: well he's still going late eighth. Really you have an eighth.

335
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:24,560
Speaker 1: I've got him in seventh right around John Brown and

336
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:27,080
Speaker 1: Tyler Lockett. Those three are like, yeah, John Brown, Tyler

337
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 1: Lockett right in there, Kevin White going a few picks.

338
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:33,720
Speaker 1: Parker's ADP has dropped over the last month, though, So okay, Well,

339
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:35,680
Speaker 1: but I think I think, just to make one quick

340
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:37,760
Speaker 1: last point on Parker, I think this is a big

341
00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:41,080
Speaker 1: deal him missing offseason practices because I think that was

342
00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:44,560
Speaker 1: the thing that started him slow last year. Was because

343
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:47,000
Speaker 1: my biggest concern with him coming out of college was

344
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:49,760
Speaker 1: he only really had one release move against press coverage,

345
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 1: and that does not fly at the NFL level. You

346
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:53,920
Speaker 1: have to vary your moves off the line of scrimmage,

347
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:56,800
Speaker 1: and he did not do that in college. He didn't

348
00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:58,399
Speaker 1: get the time to work on that as a as

349
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,360
Speaker 1: a rookie. And also don't know if he's He's kind

350
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 1: of hinted before, like in some quotes like just like

351
00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:06,000
Speaker 1: he doesn't even know if that's important, which it kind

352
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:10,119
Speaker 1: of is. But but you know, I think so I

353
00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:12,159
Speaker 1: think that now he's missing time again. It's not a

354
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,800
Speaker 1: good time. Well. I think maybe maybe he feels like

355
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,159
Speaker 1: he's a freak athlete, which he's not, but maybe he

356
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:19,320
Speaker 1: feels like he is. He's definitely a big he's definitely

357
00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:22,239
Speaker 1: a big splash play threat. But you know, all right,

358
00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:24,200
Speaker 1: so is arian I mean it sounds like Arion Foster

359
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 1: is the sharter, right, yeah, right, now, yeah, it makes sense.

360
00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 1: The veteran back with a lot of great, you know, huge,

361
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:33,879
Speaker 1: awesome resumes. Have we reached the point where if your

362
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,600
Speaker 1: draft is tomorrow, you need to draft Foster ahead of

363
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:39,840
Speaker 1: a Yeah, I think so. Oh yeah, so I don't

364
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,360
Speaker 1: have to like it though. Now you're trying to die

365
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:45,199
Speaker 1: on the hill if you do otherwise, going what in

366
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 1: the ninth round? According to Fancy, he's stumbling, he's he's

367
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,000
Speaker 1: fallen from the other day when I said Foster had

368
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:54,439
Speaker 1: jumped his ADP and they're just the split is just

369
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:58,560
Speaker 1: getting wider. Now, yeah, Arian Foster going, Oh my gosh,

370
00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:01,719
Speaker 1: she's going in the seventh. That's that's way too rich

371
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:04,119
Speaker 1: for my blood. Yeah, I'm just gonna have to have

372
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:06,919
Speaker 1: other options if you take him. Okay, we keep saying this,

373
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:08,960
Speaker 1: right with every every running back like, oh, that's way

374
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:11,640
Speaker 1: too rich. There are no running backs out there. There

375
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:13,399
Speaker 1: aren't any running backs out there, and so for not

376
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:15,919
Speaker 1: everybody is on the let's go wide receiver heavy trains.

377
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 1: So if you're not doing that, you have to reach

378
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:22,040
Speaker 1: for these guys. You just do because there first off,

379
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:25,719
Speaker 1: they're only what like three actual honest to goodness workhorse

380
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:29,080
Speaker 1: bell cow guys out there the rest of the time.

381
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,919
Speaker 1: He's not one of them though, he's gone, but the

382
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,320
Speaker 1: rest of them are in committee. So you do have

383
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:37,760
Speaker 1: to go early to get the guy you think is

384
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 1: going to make an impact. You can't sit around and

385
00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 1: wait and hope some and then like wait for somebody

386
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:42,520
Speaker 1: else to snipe that guy out ahead of you. So

387
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,560
Speaker 1: maybe you don't like Arian Foster in a single digit round,

388
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:49,199
Speaker 1: but well, life, that's life, right, agree with you. But

389
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 1: here's the guys that are going, you know, considerably after him, right,

390
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 1: Duke Johnson go on a full round after Frank Gore.

391
00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:57,160
Speaker 1: I'm not a fan, but whatever, if you like it, fine,

392
00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 1: Joe Bernard is there, just enforced that is there. Danny

393
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:03,399
Speaker 1: Woodhead is there. I mean Danny Woodhead is going two

394
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,400
Speaker 1: rounds after. Um. These are all guys that I think

395
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:09,800
Speaker 1: I'd rather have than Arian Foster, mostly because I'm worried

396
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 1: about um, his age, his health, workload, split. Kenyan Drake

397
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 1: is still there. I mean we're ignoring him up. He

398
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:19,679
Speaker 1: got hurt today, oh man, really pulled up. I think

399
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:25,360
Speaker 1: the hamstring this this this tweet comes from Evan Silva yesterday,

400
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:30,480
Speaker 1: Zeke hamstring, Adrian Peterson hamstring, Levy On Bell suspended, Charles Jamal,

401
00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:35,080
Speaker 1: Charles Pup, Thomas Rawles Pup, Dion Lewis Pup, Forte hamstring,

402
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:40,199
Speaker 1: Aryan Comma Foster. I guess no more needed to be said.

403
00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:42,920
Speaker 1: So it's almost like investing in running backs is a

404
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:46,160
Speaker 1: really open yourself to a lot of really fragile assets.

405
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:47,879
Speaker 1: Well but it really, I mean, it does. But the

406
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:51,159
Speaker 1: point is you gotta you gotta play too. Yeah, you

407
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 1: gotta play two of them, and there aren't I mean,

408
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 1: good luck finding too that you can feel like that

409
00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 1: you can actually get if you feel like you can

410
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,199
Speaker 1: count on. So at some point you are going to

411
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,200
Speaker 1: have to reach on running backs. That's just the way

412
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:07,000
Speaker 1: it is, for sure. Or you just you punt the

413
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:09,160
Speaker 1: position and you become much stronger at all the other

414
00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:11,840
Speaker 1: more locked you know, nothing is I mean. But but

415
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:13,720
Speaker 1: the thing is, how much stronger can you get at

416
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:15,840
Speaker 1: wide receiver or tidy You only play two wide receivers,

417
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 1: maybe three, you can only play one tight end, you

418
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,879
Speaker 1: can only play one quarterback. How much stronger can you

419
00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,720
Speaker 1: really get to the point that it's diminishing returns now.

420
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:24,840
Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's the that's the debate. But that's

421
00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:31,760
Speaker 1: why you know Terence West in Baltimore has had a

422
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:36,040
Speaker 1: quote impressive camp. That is according to Ravens reporter Jamison

423
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:40,040
Speaker 1: Hensley from ESPN. Why and then this is where it

424
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:44,440
Speaker 1: gets a little dicey. Hensley then said West is that

425
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:48,200
Speaker 1: it is in at least a quote in the conversation

426
00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:54,040
Speaker 1: to start for its hometown Baltimore team. Jamison Hensley does

427
00:21:54,160 --> 00:22:00,200
Speaker 1: amazing work. I like Jamison Hensley. He's accurate, he's good

428
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:05,000
Speaker 1: with his Baltimore Ravens news. This is ridiculous. Um, he

429
00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:08,600
Speaker 1: is not in line. No, no, I refuse to believe it.

430
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 1: I absolutely refused to believe that he is even in consideration.

431
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:16,960
Speaker 1: I feel like we should have some kind of impromptu

432
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:24,160
Speaker 1: fantasy therapy here. Um, John Harbaugh, why do you hate us?

433
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:27,399
Speaker 1: What did we ever do to you? We drafted the

434
00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:31,560
Speaker 1: Ravens defense for years, even after they weren't good anymore,

435
00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:35,359
Speaker 1: we still drafted them on name value. We liked Steve Smith.

436
00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:37,159
Speaker 1: We want Steve Smith to come back, even though we

437
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,680
Speaker 1: know he's not the same guy. We even went on

438
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:43,880
Speaker 1: with his faulty narrative that Joe Flacco is elite, even

439
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,479
Speaker 1: though he's not, at least not for fantasy. So why

440
00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:48,160
Speaker 1: do we been where we've been rearded with a wide

441
00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:51,440
Speaker 1: receiver core that is just a jumbled mess, and now

442
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:53,720
Speaker 1: you're throwing Terrence West in our face? Don't forget the

443
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:57,960
Speaker 1: four tight ends? The four tight ends? Like why four

444
00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 1: tight ends? Seventeen running back? What did we ever do

445
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:05,800
Speaker 1: to you? They let go of t rich How did

446
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 1: Like I don't understand, Like, where's the other roster spots going?

447
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:11,560
Speaker 1: There's so many tight ends, so many run it's unbelievable.

448
00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:16,040
Speaker 1: They're not going to feel the defense. Um this, this

449
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:20,679
Speaker 1: certainly will be something to watch. But I'm not adjusting

450
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:24,000
Speaker 1: Terrence West in draft rankings or am I starting to

451
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:26,160
Speaker 1: look at him as any sort of like deep sleep.

452
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 1: We gotta remember, like Terence West was like highly like

453
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,320
Speaker 1: a lot of people liked him, and in Cleveland he

454
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,280
Speaker 1: got kicked off the team for being like a headcase,

455
00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:37,639
Speaker 1: like for he was like missing practice, he had a

456
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,160
Speaker 1: really poor attitude and stuff like that. So hey, maybe

457
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:42,880
Speaker 1: he's got his head on straight now in a better organization.

458
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:46,040
Speaker 1: Everybody loves a redemption story, but better organization. It's his hometown.

459
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:49,240
Speaker 1: He played college ball out there, and they liked him too.

460
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:51,080
Speaker 1: They were gonna take they said they were going to

461
00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:53,040
Speaker 1: take him before Cleveland jumped up ahead of them in

462
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:56,160
Speaker 1: the third round that year. I mean, but here's the thing.

463
00:23:56,520 --> 00:24:02,200
Speaker 1: We've seen him play. No, hey, he decent games. Open

464
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:06,800
Speaker 1: to listen. I'm an idiot, but I'm open to I mean, um,

465
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:09,280
Speaker 1: the thing, here's the thing about that I find a

466
00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 1: little bit more uh significant about the Terence West news. Again,

467
00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:17,240
Speaker 1: I think there's zero percent chance he starts, But um,

468
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 1: I do believe that for someone like Kenneth Dixon, who's

469
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 1: missing some time with an m c l um, it's

470
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 1: clear that Justin force Set and Buck Allen are running

471
00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:28,960
Speaker 1: with the ones right now. Looks like Buck Allen's got

472
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,520
Speaker 1: that inside track to well. I want to say he's

473
00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 1: got the inside track for the backup job. But um,

474
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,600
Speaker 1: I'm you know, I'm certain recent reports that man, they

475
00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 1: are really fighting for that starting position. So we'll see.

476
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:43,720
Speaker 1: But for someone like Kenneth Dixon, it's got to dry.

477
00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:47,000
Speaker 1: I mean, look, there's nobody of a bigger fan of

478
00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:50,720
Speaker 1: Kenny Dixon than myself in that offense. But you start

479
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:52,480
Speaker 1: seeing the reports, you start looking at the injuries, you

480
00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:55,640
Speaker 1: start looking at the situation. I mean, you you gotta

481
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:57,560
Speaker 1: drop him down in your rankings. You gotta do it.

482
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 1: I can't see myself taking him in that ninth tenth

483
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:02,920
Speaker 1: round range, which is where I've been loving to take

484
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:06,439
Speaker 1: him right now. But um, it's just impossible to say that.

485
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 1: If Terence west Is is making an impact and Jamison

486
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:12,040
Speaker 1: Hensley is definitely saying that, it sounds like Kenny Dixon

487
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:16,159
Speaker 1: is gonna be fighting West for for almost like you know,

488
00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 1: third string duties right now. Yeah, this like I've been

489
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:22,919
Speaker 1: I've been thinking about maybe working up a piece on

490
00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:25,919
Speaker 1: position groups or teams. I'm just flat out gonna be

491
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,159
Speaker 1: avoiding in drafts because there's too many question marks, Like

492
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,040
Speaker 1: I'd rather take a shot at somebody on the waiver wire.

493
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:32,960
Speaker 1: A lot of these aside from wide receiver that's Baltimore

494
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:36,399
Speaker 1: offense is basically one I'm just off of because this

495
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:38,840
Speaker 1: this is turning into like we joked last year about

496
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 1: the Patriots backfield being a dice roll. But you can

497
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 1: put Dixon's face for Set's face, Alan's face, West's face,

498
00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:48,760
Speaker 1: you know, Kyle, you Check's face on a die rolling

499
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:50,359
Speaker 1: in any given week, and that's the one you want

500
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:52,120
Speaker 1: to start from. From the look of this right now.

501
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:55,760
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, No, you're right, you're right. I still have

502
00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:58,520
Speaker 1: high hopes for Keun Dixon, but this news makes it tough.

503
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:00,280
Speaker 1: Might not be this year, might not be this year.

504
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,879
Speaker 1: You're right, all right? How about Christian Michael? How about

505
00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 1: it spiking of guys? If we've been, you know, talking

506
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,040
Speaker 1: about you, talking about Terrence West and being a head

507
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:09,600
Speaker 1: case and never working. Yes, here we are. Now we

508
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:12,480
Speaker 1: turned a page to christ and Michael. Pete Carroll in

509
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:16,399
Speaker 1: Seattle says, what he's been on the money? Yep, in

510
00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:21,919
Speaker 1: camp so far? Uh okay, I don't know what I mean.

511
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:24,240
Speaker 1: You want to take this one. With the injuries there,

512
00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:27,840
Speaker 1: it's it's clearly a camp battle. Rawls isn't back yet,

513
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:30,600
Speaker 1: although Pete Carroll says he's close. He's been close for

514
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 1: the last month. Processes out with a hamstring. I think

515
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,399
Speaker 1: for at least a week or two. Even if he's not,

516
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:38,320
Speaker 1: let's just say he's out with the hamstring, because that's

517
00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:41,399
Speaker 1: just the narrative. He's got a hamstring. And Michael is

518
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:44,200
Speaker 1: kind of the clubhouse leader right now. To start if

519
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 1: if Rawls can't get back. Michael's Michael's leading the pack,

520
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 1: and and they're saying it's not close, and I mean

521
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,879
Speaker 1: it's kind of a surprise. But if most of his

522
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:58,080
Speaker 1: struggles to get on the field and get snaps thus

523
00:26:58,080 --> 00:26:59,520
Speaker 1: far in his career I have been mental and maybe

524
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:02,639
Speaker 1: he's coming round in that aspect, then maybe he's taking

525
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:05,760
Speaker 1: more seriously and we're overlooking him in fantasy, right, you know,

526
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:07,520
Speaker 1: the mental side of It's a good point because that's

527
00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:10,159
Speaker 1: something that even coming out of the organization in Seattle

528
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:13,080
Speaker 1: late last year, after they brought him back with something

529
00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:16,159
Speaker 1: like I remember reading reports of like he's changed, he

530
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,920
Speaker 1: gets it now, like he's bought into the team philosophy,

531
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 1: he's working harder in practice and stuff like that. So

532
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:24,119
Speaker 1: maybe we've been ignoring these tea leaves that have been

533
00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 1: sitting right in front of us at the at the

534
00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:27,840
Speaker 1: end of the year, when no one was paying attention.

535
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:30,840
Speaker 1: In Week seventeen, he ran seventeen times for a hundred

536
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:34,640
Speaker 1: two yards against Arizona. It's pretty good. Does this mean

537
00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:38,760
Speaker 1: something about Thomas Rawls? Does this mean? Does this mean

538
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:42,199
Speaker 1: that Rawles is further away than than we even know.

539
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:45,280
Speaker 1: I mean, they've been very they've been very vague, but

540
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,280
Speaker 1: I think his his return. I think Pete Carroll is

541
00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:51,440
Speaker 1: a king of smoke screens first of all. But you don't,

542
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:55,159
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, he's so good. And and here's the

543
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:57,879
Speaker 1: other thing, because every now and again, these things that

544
00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:01,400
Speaker 1: we were saying our smoke screens, they end up being

545
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:05,480
Speaker 1: my thing, you know what I mean. So because there's

546
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:08,920
Speaker 1: no organization that embraces competition more than the Seattle Seahawk,

547
00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:11,520
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So, I mean Richard trum

548
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:15,800
Speaker 1: and a fifth round guy Thomas Rawls undrafted. Uh, you know.

549
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:20,240
Speaker 1: So again, this is something that's very interesting because I

550
00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 1: guess it's feasible that Christian Michael could be the starter.

551
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:27,520
Speaker 1: For see, it's feasible. And Pete Carroll's usually overly optimistic

552
00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:30,800
Speaker 1: about injuries or which is basically anything, and he's just

553
00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:33,280
Speaker 1: never been optimistic about this Rawles thing, which is a

554
00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:35,639
Speaker 1: little frightening. It's a fractured ankle. I mean, you know,

555
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,360
Speaker 1: I didn't understand when fantasy analysts were just writing it

556
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:40,200
Speaker 1: off and saying, oh, he'll be back, Like I don't,

557
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:41,640
Speaker 1: I don't get it. It happened so late in the

558
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,080
Speaker 1: season because it's it's sort of like you know in

559
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,760
Speaker 1: video games, when the season's over, the next season, the

560
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:49,959
Speaker 1: injured players just all come back there. They're all good,

561
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:53,400
Speaker 1: except when they make straight up Like did you ever

562
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:56,240
Speaker 1: when like playing Madden growing up, ever get like a

563
00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:59,000
Speaker 1: career career Indian injury. I remember I had like a

564
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 1: fantasy franchise on Madden where I had Steven Jackson. He

565
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:04,400
Speaker 1: got a career ending injury, and I just remember, like, damn,

566
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 1: must be serious, really, and I'm and I'm like, I

567
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:13,280
Speaker 1: can't cancel. I mean, if if it's in the game,

568
00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:17,240
Speaker 1: it's in the game. It's right, That's right, Okay. Cameron

569
00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:20,080
Speaker 1: Bright is a starting tight end in Tampa Bay. So

570
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:27,320
Speaker 1: we're gonna do this dance again, right Verryan Jenkins, I

571
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:30,840
Speaker 1: wonder a lot of folks are wondering whether as Jay

572
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:35,000
Speaker 1: even makes this, is that the brake train there, it goes, there,

573
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:40,120
Speaker 1: it goes. We converted franchise yesterday. He was skeptical. Then

574
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 1: he still was. He started grinding, grinding that tape. There's

575
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:45,840
Speaker 1: actually a photo of me grinding tape. Yes, it's on

576
00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 1: my Twitter feed. Stop it. Yeah, honestly was By the

577
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:51,480
Speaker 1: end of the day, Hammer Brad made some good catches

578
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:54,719
Speaker 1: last year. I'm not saying he's he's got ability and

579
00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:57,720
Speaker 1: listen that the thing about Austin Severian Jenkins when he's

580
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:01,040
Speaker 1: not hurt, he's playing below his potential or yelling at

581
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:05,480
Speaker 1: fans on Twitter. So she's done. So it really comes

582
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,640
Speaker 1: down to what is the ceiling for a guy like

583
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:12,480
Speaker 1: Cameron Brake. I don't have a lot of options that offense.

584
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 1: They don't after you know, Vincent Jackson's getting up there.

585
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:16,840
Speaker 1: We've talked about liking him, you know on last week's episode.

586
00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:22,480
Speaker 1: Do they want Charles Simms, Doug Martin, Mike Evans. Okay,

587
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:26,520
Speaker 1: that's that's That's a lot of touches going somewhere else. Though. Still,

588
00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:28,360
Speaker 1: the tight end is going to have a designated role.

589
00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:30,080
Speaker 1: As we've mentioned, it's a role that's gotten a lot

590
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:32,840
Speaker 1: of targets and dirt cutter offenses. Harmon mentioned last podcast

591
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,360
Speaker 1: to Jamis Winston loves to pummel his tight ends with targets.

592
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:38,720
Speaker 1: If this offense is taking another step with the slim down,

593
00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:42,960
Speaker 1: you know, progressing, Winston Brake could be a huge beneficiary,

594
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:45,160
Speaker 1: and I think his his ceiling is like as a

595
00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:47,640
Speaker 1: back end tight end one not like you know, not

596
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:50,400
Speaker 1: a Barnkowski getting up there and finishing is the tight

597
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:54,000
Speaker 1: end too, but like that that Travis Kelsey air area

598
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 1: where he finishes, like the tight ends seven or eight

599
00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:57,720
Speaker 1: with you know, like eight hundred yards and five or

600
00:30:57,760 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 1: six touchdowns. So I come back to my original question

601
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:03,440
Speaker 1: from Tuesday. Are you drafting Yeah, we get it, You're

602
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 1: we're probably not drafting him because of all of the

603
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 1: players that listed ahead of him, unless he really picks

604
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:11,760
Speaker 1: up steam in the preseason. Right if you play a

605
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 1: standard fifteen round draft, you're probably not drafting him. But

606
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:17,120
Speaker 1: if you play in MFL tens. I've taken him in

607
00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:20,959
Speaker 1: the back half of some of those several times, especially

608
00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:23,840
Speaker 1: and um that's spicy. Yeah, yeah, for sure, like especially

609
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:25,200
Speaker 1: because you probably want to take three tight ends in

610
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:27,800
Speaker 1: that FORMAPO, this is all no discussion. Um. You also

611
00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 1: like you're you're playing DFS during the early parts of

612
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:36,800
Speaker 1: the season. Okay, guys, probably live Walford or Cameron Brad. Wow, Walford.

613
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:39,920
Speaker 1: I'll go Walford. Cameron Braid right now? You know, hey,

614
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:41,840
Speaker 1: you guys, you guys, we're making him Cameron Brad right now.

615
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 1: You guys are talking about him like he's White Castle right,

616
00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 1: because people love white Castle, right, But everybody who loves

617
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:50,440
Speaker 1: white Castle has all these disclaimers about why they love

618
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:53,280
Speaker 1: white Castle. Great when it's two thirty in the morning

619
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:58,720
Speaker 1: and I've drank seven beers, like with all these like

620
00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:03,720
Speaker 1: boxers review, Like what the heck? I'm sure camra brid

621
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:05,680
Speaker 1: is going to be fine, but like we have to

622
00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:08,200
Speaker 1: put all these like conditions about when and why and

623
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,520
Speaker 1: how you draft him, like he's for most of us,

624
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:13,360
Speaker 1: he's a waiver wire. Any player we put conditions on

625
00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:17,840
Speaker 1: when wearing why to draft him? No, not like this Slanders,

626
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:21,600
Speaker 1: like white Castle didn't have as many touchdown receptions since

627
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:25,959
Speaker 1: Mike Evans did last year. Wow, did it happen? Did

628
00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:28,640
Speaker 1: it happen? It happen. I've looked at the numbers, You've

629
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:30,959
Speaker 1: looked at them. Okay, that's good. Let's let's get out

630
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:34,040
Speaker 1: of the news here. We gotta go to tight to Tennessee. Okay, uh,

631
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:38,240
Speaker 1: Tennessee kendall right, put on blast by Mike mclarkey. Cool, whatever,

632
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:43,200
Speaker 1: just avoid the Tennessee wider. So basically, Mike Malarkey hates

633
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:45,120
Speaker 1: all of his wide receivers that could actually be good.

634
00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:48,080
Speaker 1: There's gonna be I think I read the taj Sharp

635
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:49,880
Speaker 1: is getting good. Maybe I'm making this up, but I

636
00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:51,680
Speaker 1: think they're going to run a new promotion in Tennessee

637
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:53,480
Speaker 1: where everybody gets to play wide receiver for a day.

638
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 1: You know, you went a drawing put on some pads

639
00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:01,080
Speaker 1: this tall? What wh I mentioned that piece? I was

640
00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:03,240
Speaker 1: thinking about writing on position groups or teams, and I'm

641
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,000
Speaker 1: going to avoid the Titans almost like there are a

642
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:08,440
Speaker 1: lot of good players on this offense, but all of

643
00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:11,240
Speaker 1: the stuff coming out of camp and the news and

644
00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:13,880
Speaker 1: the coach speak and everything, and how crowded their position

645
00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:16,720
Speaker 1: groups are. Is this just like I feel like I'm

646
00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 1: just wasting a draft pick if it's in the middle

647
00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:20,400
Speaker 1: rounds if I take one of these skill position players

648
00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:25,680
Speaker 1: because everything is so muddled. Never Titans, Mario. Wow, Mariota

649
00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:29,160
Speaker 1: is uh is still a really good, uh, really interesting

650
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:34,440
Speaker 1: uh late round flyer at fantasy quarterback. He's got the wheels. Uh.

651
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:36,160
Speaker 1: We saw what he could do last year? What was it?

652
00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:39,120
Speaker 1: Week one? Four touchdowns? Yep, you like it right? You

653
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:40,920
Speaker 1: know I like him as a sleeper like him, you know,

654
00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:45,760
Speaker 1: as a as a late round guy. I look if

655
00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:49,320
Speaker 1: if Alex Smith is the gap Teddy Bridgewater is Old

656
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 1: Navy and Marcus Mariota has the chance to the Banana Republic.

657
00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:54,920

678
00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:58,520
Speaker 1: you know, all right, let's talk about the Let's get

679
00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:01,920
Speaker 1: into this, all right, Defford Broncos. Um, are you worried

680
00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:05,920
Speaker 1: about Damarius Thomas or Emmanuel Sanders given that the quarterback

681
00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:09,680
Speaker 1: situation there is. I don't want to say it's a mess.

682
00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:13,120
Speaker 1: It's jumbled, but it's not a mess. Now. I feel

683
00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:15,480
Speaker 1: like it's a little bit of a mess. It's not really,

684
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:19,239
Speaker 1: I don't think so. I mean, like, I know, first

685
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:22,040
Speaker 1: of all, I know Mark Sanchez lover, okay, but Gary

686
00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:26,719
Speaker 1: Kopiak has done such a great job developing quarterbacks. Um,

687
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:29,279
Speaker 1: and I'm not I'm actually not that worried about the

688
00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:32,399
Speaker 1: wide receiving group. I'm not either, but I still think

689
00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:35,080
Speaker 1: that the quarterback position could be terrible. I don't I

690
00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:37,080
Speaker 1: don't think it will affect the wide receivers as much.

691
00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 1: My friend Sully Sparks on Twitter. Don't follow him, but

692
00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:45,440
Speaker 1: he's said it's it's August fift two thousand, sixteen of

693
00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:47,400
Speaker 1: the Year of Our Lord, and everyone in Denver just

694
00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:51,000
Speaker 1: realized that Mark Sanchez isn't good at football. You know,

695
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:53,920
Speaker 1: I don't know, I think that I think that it

696
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:56,040
Speaker 1: could certainly be a thing where he plays well enough.

697
00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:58,160
Speaker 1: But the thing is, it doesn't matter to me with

698
00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:00,239
Speaker 1: the wide receivers because they're just gonna you know, I

699
00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:01,880
Speaker 1: talked about target share all the time, and these two

700
00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:03,839
Speaker 1: guys are going to dominate the load there. There's really

701
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:06,920
Speaker 1: nobody to get. It's a concentrated offense, which is expression

702
00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:09,719
Speaker 1: you used before where it goes to those two and

703
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:14,880
Speaker 1: almost nobody else. Last year, Tomarius Thomas of the targets, uh,

704
00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:19,799
Speaker 1: Emmanuel Sanders. Same thing even with West Welker and Julius Thomas.

705
00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:22,680
Speaker 1: Therety one percent for DT and twenty three for Emmanuel Sanders.

706
00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:25,120
Speaker 1: I mean, I also think, you know, the way what

707
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:28,000
Speaker 1: we have seen out of this offense is you know,

708
00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:31,280
Speaker 1: maybe bubble screens galore for Damarius Thomas this year, which

709
00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:35,360
Speaker 1: you certainly ups his PPR value. Look, he's a playmaker.

710
00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:38,680
Speaker 1: It's a I'm kind of with Harmon. It's a situation

711
00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:40,960
Speaker 1: where the quarterback doesn't necessarily have to play well for

712
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:42,960
Speaker 1: the wide receiver. They didn't. They didn't last year, and

713
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:45,520
Speaker 1: both of them prospered Like Peyton Manning was atrocious for

714
00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:48,000
Speaker 1: much this year and then brock Osler. Oswiler was like

715
00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:50,400
Speaker 1: Mark Sanchez level for the rest of the year, and

716
00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:52,600
Speaker 1: both of these guys still had solid numbers. I'm starting

717
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:54,840
Speaker 1: to come around more and more to Emmanuel Sanders actually

718
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:58,080
Speaker 1: because he's going four rounds or so later than DT,

719
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:00,319
Speaker 1: and there's been a lot of reports out of camp

720
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:02,160
Speaker 1: actually that to Marius Thomas has been having a lot

721
00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:04,120
Speaker 1: of drops again as he did last year, and I

722
00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:06,759
Speaker 1: don't want to overstate those, but he has want to

723
00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:09,000
Speaker 1: do that. He has wanted to do that, and Sanders

724
00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:11,040
Speaker 1: is a pretty sure handed guy that will have no

725
00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,359
Speaker 1: problem eating up those extra targets if you know, they

726
00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:15,719
Speaker 1: start turning away from DT a little bit from his

727
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:18,160
Speaker 1: crazy volume that he's had. You know, it's interesting too.

728
00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:20,560
Speaker 1: I felt like Emmanuels or excuse me, to Maryus Thomas

729
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:25,760
Speaker 1: was a little bit um undervalued or it was weird

730
00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:27,640
Speaker 1: like I think that. I felt like the fantasy community

731
00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:29,960
Speaker 1: was mad at DT for some reason last year. Um,

732
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:31,640
Speaker 1: and all he did was catching hundred in five balls

733
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:36,080
Speaker 1: yards six touchdowns Like it was not you know, the

734
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:39,040
Speaker 1: DT from two or three years ago. I get it,

735
00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:44,040
Speaker 1: but one oh five hundred and six that's pretty dang good. Man,

736
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:46,880
Speaker 1: that's good. He's a wide receiver eleven in PPR last year,

737
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:49,400
Speaker 1: which is why I hate analysis. It's like, well, you know,

738
00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:51,680
Speaker 1: he's not gonna you know, DT could be a bus

739
00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:53,359
Speaker 1: because he's not gonna do what he did two years ago.

740
00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:55,960
Speaker 1: But like, no, kidding, no, everybody knows that. But that's

741
00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:58,279
Speaker 1: why he's priced in the third round, right, right, right.

742
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:00,919
Speaker 1: The same thing with Sanders, Like they were both top

743
00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:03,399
Speaker 1: twenty wide receivers in PPR last year, they probably will

744
00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:07,279
Speaker 1: be again. Seventy six catches yards for Rommanuel Sanders to

745
00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:10,200
Speaker 1: go along with six touchdowns. Again, the touchdowns, I get it. Uh,

746
00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:12,080
Speaker 1: there's a little bit of a cap there because they're

747
00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:13,880
Speaker 1: gonna run the ball a lot and they want to

748
00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:16,600
Speaker 1: protect the ball. Um, that's the thing. They want to

749
00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:19,280
Speaker 1: protect the ball because when you've got a strong defense

750
00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:21,840
Speaker 1: like the dever Broncos have, you cannot turn it over.

751
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:25,640
Speaker 1: That's the killer. And Mark Sanchez is one to throw interception.

752
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:30,799
Speaker 1: Speaking of that ground control, C J. Anderson. Are we

753
00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:34,319
Speaker 1: underrating him too much? Still? Not me? No, no, no, no, Look,

754
00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:37,279
Speaker 1: look I think he's I think he's appropriately valued. Look

755
00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:43,759
Speaker 1: he's burned us twice now twice again early part of

756
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:46,839
Speaker 1: the season right now. Okay, we always get enticed by

757
00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:51,400
Speaker 1: his late season search. Okay, I mean, you know again,

758
00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:53,960
Speaker 1: I think he's appropriately priced. I I just don't see

759
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:56,680
Speaker 1: him again being that bell cow guy who's going to

760
00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:59,399
Speaker 1: carry you to to you know, glory in the first

761
00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:01,640
Speaker 1: half of the sea. And again, I just don't see it.

762
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:06,239
Speaker 1: He was definitely hurt last year at the early and

763
00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:08,319
Speaker 1: but but that is also part of the equation that

764
00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:10,560
Speaker 1: we are certainly getting into the point of c. Jansen's

765
00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:13,440
Speaker 1: career where there's always something. Um but I think his

766
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:16,160
Speaker 1: range of outcomes is really good because I think he's

767
00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:18,560
Speaker 1: priced probably at his floor right now in the late

768
00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:20,320
Speaker 1: third round, but I think he's got a higher ceiling

769
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:24,080
Speaker 1: than that. Yeah, I agree, what is this always something?

770
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:26,319
Speaker 1: This is his fourth year in the league. The last

771
00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 1: two years he's played fifteen games. But that's what I'm saying.

772
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,160
Speaker 1: But he's been but he nursed his injuries a lot.

773
00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:33,319
Speaker 1: But he's on the field and I love that, and

774
00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:36,000
Speaker 1: he's not producing it. That's not always good. I mean,

775
00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:41,919
Speaker 1: he's on I believe, listen, I believe I'm with you too.

776
00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:44,400
Speaker 1: But I mean, at the same time, there's certain it

777
00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:46,040
Speaker 1: is a little bit of like and it's an always

778
00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:48,919
Speaker 1: something thing and in the fourth round, a fourth round

779
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:53,319
Speaker 1: asking price potentially, right, Yeah, I feel like that's a

780
00:39:53,360 --> 00:40:00,160
Speaker 1: big value there. I'm not I'm not hating. The other

781
00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:04,279
Speaker 1: thing is if if the quarterback play isn't grand, like

782
00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:10,080
Speaker 1: that could hurt Anderson's touchdown volume. So you know that's

783
00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:12,360
Speaker 1: something to think about. Like the offense could just be bad,

784
00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:14,680
Speaker 1: all right? How about the Raiders Derek Carr set to

785
00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:21,399
Speaker 1: make a giant leap or not giant leap, nah, but leap. Yeah? Okay,

786
00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:24,239
Speaker 1: so what are we talking for? Like thirty thirty two

787
00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:31,520
Speaker 1: ish thirty last year? He was a quarterback fifteen last

788
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:34,719
Speaker 1: I don't think he cracked thirty no, no, um, but

789
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:36,640
Speaker 1: I think he was what you see the quarterback fifteen

790
00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:39,440
Speaker 1: last year. I mean I think he did the touchdowns.

791
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:41,080
Speaker 1: I think he knocks on the door at the top ten.

792
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:42,480
Speaker 1: I don't know if he quite gets in, but I

793
00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:45,080
Speaker 1: think he's knocking on the door. Yeah, I'd say his

794
00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:47,960
Speaker 1: ceiling is like number ten from in my eyes, I mean,

795
00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:51,400
Speaker 1: that's his absolute How this how this team has has

796
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:55,040
Speaker 1: been reformed this offseason with such a better defense and

797
00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:57,359
Speaker 1: stuff like I don't think cars gonna need to get

798
00:40:57,360 --> 00:40:59,080
Speaker 1: in as many shootouts, and I don't think they want

799
00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:01,040
Speaker 1: him to. I think thing, I don't know what happened

800
00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:02,680
Speaker 1: with him. I don't know what happened with him so

801
00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:04,239
Speaker 1: much if it was if it was an armed thing

802
00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:06,520
Speaker 1: or fatigue or because Cooper was hurt. But he fell

803
00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:08,680
Speaker 1: off a lot last year down the stretch, and I

804
00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:11,560
Speaker 1: think they would rather have car not be a game manager.

805
00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:13,440
Speaker 1: It sounds like such a damning statement, but it's really not.

806
00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:15,400
Speaker 1: But they don't want you know, they know they can

807
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:16,960
Speaker 1: win with his arm, but they don't want to have to,

808
00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:19,560
Speaker 1: is what it seems like the way this team has

809
00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:22,359
Speaker 1: been going this offseason. So what you're saying about Derek Carr, though,

810
00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:24,880
Speaker 1: that's got to have obviously a big time impact on

811
00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:27,480
Speaker 1: somebody like a Maori Cooper and Michael Crabtree. So do

812
00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:29,520
Speaker 1: you not their value down a bit? I don't think

813
00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:33,560
Speaker 1: it's a huge knock, because like the Broncos, this is

814
00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:36,359
Speaker 1: a pretty concentrated offense. There's two guys. But I mean,

815
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:38,080
Speaker 1: I think I've said on this podcast before I was

816
00:41:38,080 --> 00:41:41,360
Speaker 1: in on Amari Cooper is like an earlier mid second

817
00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:44,160
Speaker 1: round pick. I'd rather take him a little later and

818
00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:46,200
Speaker 1: same and same with Crabtree. He's a guy O grab

819
00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:47,919
Speaker 1: in that. Like, I don't know fifth to seventh round

820
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:50,960
Speaker 1: range depending on the makeup of my team, but I

821
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:52,880
Speaker 1: just I think they're they're They've got safe floors, but

822
00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:54,800
Speaker 1: their ceilings are a little lower than some might expect

823
00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:57,319
Speaker 1: based on how they jumped last year. I think so too.

824
00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:00,600
Speaker 1: And in order for Marie Cooper, I just wrote a

825
00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:04,720
Speaker 1: kind of a debate myself piece which is weird about

826
00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:07,359
Speaker 1: Mike Evans and a Marii Cooper in the late second round. Yes,

827
00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:09,239
Speaker 1: good piece. You should read it. Oh, thank you, Just

828
00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:12,480
Speaker 1: NFL dot com slash harmon everybody. It's nice, it's all right,

829
00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:18,799
Speaker 1: it's great. Marcus is the one that that edited that

830
00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:21,239
Speaker 1: really makes me feel bad. But anyways, uh, in order

831
00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:23,239
Speaker 1: for him to pay off his draft price, he's going

832
00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:25,799
Speaker 1: to have to be uh more used more in the

833
00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:28,000
Speaker 1: red zone. He was only targeted seven times in the

834
00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:30,840
Speaker 1: red zone. That was behind Seth Roberts and Michael Crabtree.

835
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:34,879
Speaker 1: And he received exactly zero targets inside the ten yard line,

836
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:38,480
Speaker 1: which is weird and is seven targets the whole season

837
00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:39,920
Speaker 1: in the red zone. Yeah, in the red zone, one

838
00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:43,200
Speaker 1: done within ten yards, not a single one, and no

839
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:46,320
Speaker 1: sense looking at some of the other the other numbers

840
00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:49,960
Speaker 1: of the that I accumulated in that piece like one

841
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:52,400
Speaker 1: of his weakest points as a pro. We know, you know,

842
00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:54,719
Speaker 1: look at his perception. Perception he separates all over the

843
00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:56,880
Speaker 1: route tree, you know, deep, short, all that sort of stuff.

844
00:42:56,920 --> 00:42:59,560
Speaker 1: But he's not that great a contested catches one P

845
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:02,799
Speaker 1: five sent conversion, that's below the NFL average. So maybe

846
00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:04,879
Speaker 1: it's just that's really not the strength of his game

847
00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:07,000
Speaker 1: is in traffic. But he's gonna have to score more

848
00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:08,840
Speaker 1: than He's gonna have to be like an eight to

849
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:11,600
Speaker 1: ten touchdown guy to pay off that price. And I

850
00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:14,160
Speaker 1: just don't know if he can get to that. Interesting.

851
00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:18,839
Speaker 1: What about what Abouteous? Interesting? How about Latavious Murray? Though,

852
00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:23,200
Speaker 1: um he was what he was the RB ten last year.

853
00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:26,480
Speaker 1: Obviously the position group died right yere, So, uh, there's

854
00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:28,440
Speaker 1: a little bit of that. And and quite frankly, when

855
00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:31,319
Speaker 1: you watched him play, it was not spectacular. He had

856
00:43:31,719 --> 00:43:35,800
Speaker 1: two hundred yard rushing games the entire season. Two hundred

857
00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:39,440
Speaker 1: touchdowns were also a problem. Yeah, six six double digit

858
00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:43,439
Speaker 1: fantasy outings and all all uh those are all games

859
00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:46,120
Speaker 1: that he scored touchdowns in, So he's touchdown dependent to

860
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:48,640
Speaker 1: get to that double digit notch at least last year.

861
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:51,920
Speaker 1: Um and and for a large part part of that

862
00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:54,520
Speaker 1: of that season, if I can spit this down here,

863
00:43:54,719 --> 00:43:56,799
Speaker 1: he just wasn't I don't know, he just wasn't that

864
00:43:56,840 --> 00:44:01,239
Speaker 1: explosive athlete that we've seen and we his measurables unbelievable. Yeah,

865
00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:04,799
Speaker 1: he's unbelievable. He's an unbelievable athlete. But it seemed like

866
00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:08,200
Speaker 1: he was preserving himself a little bit last year and

867
00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:09,840
Speaker 1: he got worn down. He had one of the highest

868
00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:13,200
Speaker 1: percentages of like offensive touches and opportunities that flowed through him.

869
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:15,640
Speaker 1: It was like him and Frank Gore saw like seventy

870
00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:18,920
Speaker 1: five ish percent of the the offensive touches like carries

871
00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:21,440
Speaker 1: and targets go through them, which is just obscene, like

872
00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:23,560
Speaker 1: the running back opportunities. Excuse me. So I think that's

873
00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:25,080
Speaker 1: why he wore down, which is why they've talked about

874
00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:27,640
Speaker 1: bringing in DeAndre Washington and helping to lessen his load,

875
00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:30,200
Speaker 1: which should in turn could make him more effective, Like

876
00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:32,439
Speaker 1: I could bring back those explosive plays that we're missing

877
00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:35,280
Speaker 1: last year, right talking about that effectiveness. If you're drinking

878
00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:36,960
Speaker 1: something right now, finish it because you're gonna spit it

879
00:44:36,960 --> 00:44:39,800
Speaker 1: out when This is one of the more disgusting stats

880
00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:41,920
Speaker 1: I've seen in the off season. This comes from Scott Barrett,

881
00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:45,320
Speaker 1: who's a writer from Pro Football Focus at Scott Barrett

882
00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:49,320
Speaker 1: DFB on Twitter. Since two thousand. One of the cases

883
00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:52,200
Speaker 1: of running backs amassing two sixty carries and thirty five

884
00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:55,640
Speaker 1: receptions in a season, Lottavias is Murray's Tavis Murray's two

885
00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:59,759
Speaker 1: thousand fifteen ranks dead last and fantasy points scored. YEA, yeah,

886
00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:03,160
Speaker 1: he just wasn't not was the ceiling was like not

887
00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:06,120
Speaker 1: tons of volume, but not good. We did not play well.

888
00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:08,800
Speaker 1: He also had eight games with two or fewer receptions

889
00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:10,840
Speaker 1: and had just two hundred thirty two receiving yards for

890
00:45:10,880 --> 00:45:13,239
Speaker 1: the season, which ranked him outside the top thirty and

891
00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:15,840
Speaker 1: receiving yards among I think his yards per target was

892
00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:17,960
Speaker 1: like the lowest of any running back last year too,

893
00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:20,839
Speaker 1: with like forty plus targets. But where he's priced this year,

894
00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:22,960
Speaker 1: I'm I'm totally cool with getting in on it because

895
00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:25,239
Speaker 1: even if he just gets the volume, then he's a

896
00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:29,080
Speaker 1: safe RB two floor guy. If he becomes more effective,

897
00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:31,840
Speaker 1: and it's those splash plays back then boom, he's you know,

898
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:34,360
Speaker 1: he's he's returned more on my investment than I expected,

899
00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:37,480
Speaker 1: and expect this defense to improve. Right. Yes, they have

900
00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:39,960
Speaker 1: a ton of really good players that they added this offseason.

901
00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:42,759
Speaker 1: Reports out of Mini Camp. I saw somebody tweeted yesterday like,

902
00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:46,120
Speaker 1: nobody's getting open, nobody's running through this defense. It's just

903
00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:48,560
Speaker 1: could be lights out. And if that's the case, game

904
00:45:48,560 --> 00:45:50,839
Speaker 1: scripts will flip and there will be just more opportunities.

905
00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:53,440
Speaker 1: They brought in Sean Smith, who was a great pro

906
00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:55,960
Speaker 1: from Kansas City. They brought in Bruce Irvin, a great

907
00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:58,239
Speaker 1: pass orcher. They brought in Reggie Nelson who's turned into

908
00:45:58,239 --> 00:46:00,959
Speaker 1: a really strong safety with the Bengals. They're still go. Also,

909
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:03,919
Speaker 1: they drafted, uh, they didn't know. They didn't take Neil,

910
00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:06,480
Speaker 1: they took the other one. Uh, they drafted another safety

911
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:09,120
Speaker 1: to who's his name is escaping right now. He's he's

912
00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:12,040
Speaker 1: very good. So that and their defense, you you just mentioned,

913
00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:14,520
Speaker 1: they already had collel Mac, They've got Malcolm Smith. The

914
00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:17,560
Speaker 1: Super Bowl m v P from the Broncos Seahawks game

915
00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:19,399
Speaker 1: has actually turned into a solid pro for them. There

916
00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:21,840
Speaker 1: there's a lot to like on this defense, so that

917
00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:23,680
Speaker 1: could flip the game scripts for them, and and that

918
00:46:23,680 --> 00:46:26,759
Speaker 1: would in turn be good for Murray. Yeah, it's uh, yeah,

919
00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:28,719
Speaker 1: it's interesting. Man. Like you know, at first, I was

920
00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:30,960
Speaker 1: super excited about Derek Carr. You know, you you look

921
00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:33,279
Speaker 1: at the arm, talent and everything and think this guy

922
00:46:33,320 --> 00:46:35,600
Speaker 1: could be set to make a huge leap. But then, man,

923
00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:37,879
Speaker 1: I don't know he will. I think he'll play better

924
00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:40,759
Speaker 1: from a real life perspective, but from a fantasy perspective,

925
00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:43,319
Speaker 1: I'm kind of anticipating the numbers that we saw last year.

926
00:46:43,320 --> 00:46:45,560
Speaker 1: He's entering Mark Burnell territory where he's going to be

927
00:46:45,600 --> 00:46:47,239
Speaker 1: a very good quarterback, but he's not going to be

928
00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:49,840
Speaker 1: an elite fantasy quarterback. I could see third low thirties

929
00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:53,080
Speaker 1: ish touchdowns. I don't think he's gonna crack yards. I

930
00:46:53,120 --> 00:46:55,600
Speaker 1: don't think he's gonna get there. Um, I think the

931
00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:59,040
Speaker 1: numbers we saw last year could be basically what we see.

932
00:46:59,360 --> 00:47:01,319
Speaker 1: I think that's big, basically what we could see this year,

933
00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:04,319
Speaker 1: given how good that defense will be. Uh And and

934
00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:07,239
Speaker 1: for a large part that's why I'm kind of, you

935
00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:09,799
Speaker 1: know a little if he on a MARII Cooper and

936
00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:12,439
Speaker 1: a little bit higher on Latavius Marie, but we'll see.

937
00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:15,759
Speaker 1: How about the Kansas City Chiefs Alex Smith Wait, I'm

938
00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:18,280
Speaker 1: sorry to this was that this was a joke because

939
00:47:18,320 --> 00:47:21,160
Speaker 1: we had we had our projective projections get outsourced, and

940
00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:22,680
Speaker 1: when they first came in, we had to do some

941
00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:25,640
Speaker 1: fine tuning because they had Alex Smith projected as a

942
00:47:25,680 --> 00:47:29,239
Speaker 1: top five You're so polite, you're so polite out. Yeah,

943
00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:30,840
Speaker 1: Alex Smith is not gonna be a top five flotterback

944
00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:34,000
Speaker 1: coming up. It's a good Midwestern values, Yep, That's that's

945
00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:36,160
Speaker 1: how I'm raised. But Alex Smith, I mean, he's a

946
00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:39,000
Speaker 1: he's a great streaming option. They they call him Alex

947
00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:42,319
Speaker 1: about Jesus Smith on living the stream because he if

948
00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:43,839
Speaker 1: you do stream the position, he gave me a great

949
00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:45,000
Speaker 1: one to come in and kind of give you a

950
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:47,360
Speaker 1: safe floor because he can run and stuff, but don't

951
00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:50,080
Speaker 1: touch him otherwise in leave. I feel so frustrated by

952
00:47:50,080 --> 00:47:51,640
Speaker 1: Alex Smith all the time because, like you know, you

953
00:47:51,640 --> 00:47:54,160
Speaker 1: talked about a good streaming option, because he does have

954
00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:57,120
Speaker 1: a couple of pop fantasy games, but it's so hard

955
00:47:57,160 --> 00:48:00,360
Speaker 1: to predict those games because sometimes in good Man chops

956
00:48:00,440 --> 00:48:03,279
Speaker 1: he doesn't do anything, and sometimes in bad matchups he

957
00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:05,839
Speaker 1: puts up a thirty spot. So I don't know, man,

958
00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:09,080
Speaker 1: he's generally a guy. I don't think I've ever touched

959
00:48:09,120 --> 00:48:11,960
Speaker 1: on the waiver wire because it's so hard to predict

960
00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:16,440
Speaker 1: what he's going to do. But whatever, if you're into it,

961
00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:19,759
Speaker 1: go for it. How about Jamal Charles right now? Going

962
00:48:19,840 --> 00:48:22,200
Speaker 1: what in the late second round? Anywhere between the mid

963
00:48:22,239 --> 00:48:25,719
Speaker 1: second to to early third round. A lot of respect

964
00:48:25,719 --> 00:48:27,799
Speaker 1: being paid to Jamal Charles despite the fact that he's

965
00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:31,920
Speaker 1: had two A c L surgeries in the past five years. Um. Again,

966
00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:35,640
Speaker 1: the only running back uh that has had a five

967
00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:40,160
Speaker 1: yard per carry average? Um? How do I want to

968
00:48:40,160 --> 00:48:44,399
Speaker 1: phrase this? What's the proper way? Uh? Whatever, He's good,

969
00:48:44,719 --> 00:48:47,480
Speaker 1: He's so to help contextualize that because I tweeted out

970
00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:49,560
Speaker 1: these things from our NFL media research packet and they

971
00:48:49,840 --> 00:48:52,440
Speaker 1: caught many fire when I did. Among running backs with

972
00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:55,040
Speaker 1: at least a thousand attempts in NFL history, Jamal Charles

973
00:48:55,120 --> 00:48:57,359
Speaker 1: has the highest yards per tempt at five point five,

974
00:48:57,440 --> 00:49:00,680
Speaker 1: above Jim Brown Hall of Fame, Joe Payry Hall of Fame,

975
00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:03,759
Speaker 1: Gail Sayers Hall of Fame, Barry Andrews, Barry Sanders Hall

976
00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:06,200
Speaker 1: of Fame and Adrian Peterson soon to be in the

977
00:49:06,200 --> 00:49:09,439
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame. He's ridiculous and um season's averaging five

978
00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:12,120
Speaker 1: plus yards per attempt. He is first in NFL history

979
00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:15,120
Speaker 1: as well with seven in his career. Brown only had five,

980
00:49:15,120 --> 00:49:17,480
Speaker 1: Sanders only had five, Walter Payton and Emmitt Smith each

981
00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:19,880
Speaker 1: had one. Okay, but the question is two A seals

982
00:49:19,920 --> 00:49:24,160
Speaker 1: or surgeries in the last five years. Um, they've got

983
00:49:24,160 --> 00:49:27,160
Speaker 1: to I don't want to say, you know, great running backs,

984
00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:29,680
Speaker 1: but they've got Charck Andrick West, Spencer where in the

985
00:49:29,719 --> 00:49:32,960
Speaker 1: backfield that were effective at times last year? I thought

986
00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:36,560
Speaker 1: spencer Ware was very effective last year. You gotta think

987
00:49:36,600 --> 00:49:39,400
Speaker 1: Andy Reid is gonna mix them in a little maybe not.

988
00:49:39,480 --> 00:49:41,400
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know. I don't know that. That

989
00:49:41,719 --> 00:49:43,600
Speaker 1: to me is kind of the big question. I like

990
00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:46,320
Speaker 1: Jamal Charles, you know, I wouldn't mind taking him somewhere

991
00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:49,959
Speaker 1: in the second round if I could, But I don't

992
00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:52,279
Speaker 1: know what to do after that, Like where where is

993
00:49:52,320 --> 00:49:54,279
Speaker 1: it is it? Because if I take Jamal Charles, I

994
00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:56,239
Speaker 1: feel like I need to handcuff him. But is it

995
00:49:56,280 --> 00:49:58,440
Speaker 1: is it West? Is it where? And I don't I

996
00:49:58,440 --> 00:50:01,520
Speaker 1: think it's where from pretty much every report out of there,

997
00:50:01,560 --> 00:50:04,000
Speaker 1: he's been the backup. He also like is the better

998
00:50:04,040 --> 00:50:06,719
Speaker 1: red zone threat, which could harten Charles a little bit,

999
00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:09,040
Speaker 1: but I think he's priced with that in New lad

1000
00:50:09,360 --> 00:50:11,359
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not afraid of taking Charles. We saw

1001
00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:13,120
Speaker 1: how hard he worked to come back from his last

1002
00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:15,480
Speaker 1: a c L. There's you know, no doubt he wouldn't

1003
00:50:15,480 --> 00:50:17,319
Speaker 1: be won't be doing the same thing now, especially after

1004
00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:19,880
Speaker 1: after he saw these other guys perform and get Everybody

1005
00:50:19,880 --> 00:50:21,520
Speaker 1: talks about the contracts they got. They just got a

1006
00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:24,120
Speaker 1: two year, like small money deal. It's not like they

1007
00:50:24,160 --> 00:50:27,440
Speaker 1: threw C. J. Anderson money Andrew West to stay. So

1008
00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:29,160
Speaker 1: I think it's Charles is still gonna be the guy.

1009
00:50:29,160 --> 00:50:30,960
Speaker 1: And even if his production dips a little bit, franchise

1010
00:50:30,960 --> 00:50:33,080
Speaker 1: had the stat where like he still is averaging a

1011
00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:36,520
Speaker 1: crazy amount of points on minimal touches point two touches

1012
00:50:36,520 --> 00:50:38,600
Speaker 1: a game or something through his career, and he's, you know,

1013
00:50:38,640 --> 00:50:41,000
Speaker 1: when he finishes a full season, he's an elite fantasy

1014
00:50:41,080 --> 00:50:44,120
Speaker 1: running back on that low volume. But the concern now,

1015
00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:46,239
Speaker 1: like they want they expected him to be ready at

1016
00:50:46,239 --> 00:50:47,960
Speaker 1: the start of training camp, and I don't think he's

1017
00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:51,160
Speaker 1: practiced yet, so that's raising some red flags. But it's

1018
00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:52,960
Speaker 1: not like he needs the reps because he knows. He

1019
00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:55,759
Speaker 1: knows what's going on. All right. So there's Jeremy Macklin. Uh,

1020
00:50:55,800 --> 00:50:58,400
Speaker 1: there's Travis Kelsey, who I'm not touching because of the

1021
00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:07,279
Speaker 1: reality show not doing it add him to the hate hate. Um,

1022
00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:09,719
Speaker 1: I don't know where do you take Macklin is there?

1023
00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:11,600
Speaker 1: I mean, I know the fan of Stronghold is big

1024
00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:15,200
Speaker 1: on the bird alert. Yeah, he had a little bit

1025
00:51:15,200 --> 00:51:17,560
Speaker 1: of an issue the other day at practice. Was it

1026
00:51:17,640 --> 00:51:19,640
Speaker 1: like a was it a hamstring? I believe with the

1027
00:51:19,680 --> 00:51:21,239
Speaker 1: for the bird alert, you know what, let's just call

1028
00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:23,480
Speaker 1: it a hamstring. Probably it was a hamstring. Let's called

1029
00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:26,680
Speaker 1: hamstring on every injury, every hamstring, everything hamstring. So I

1030
00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:29,520
Speaker 1: think I think Jeremy Macklin's a little underrated this year,

1031
00:51:30,360 --> 00:51:31,960
Speaker 1: going off the top of the board in the fifth round.

1032
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:33,400
Speaker 1: And I think it's just like the snink of the

1033
00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:36,239
Speaker 1: Kansas City passing game, which you know that there could

1034
00:51:36,239 --> 00:51:38,280
Speaker 1: be a little bit of a shift this year because

1035
00:51:38,320 --> 00:51:40,440
Speaker 1: Justin Houston, who you know, by the way, one of

1036
00:51:40,440 --> 00:51:42,640
Speaker 1: the best defensive players in the NFL. So it might

1037
00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:45,040
Speaker 1: make a difference when he's not on the field. Uh,

1038
00:51:45,080 --> 00:51:47,000
Speaker 1: he might miss at least the first half of the

1039
00:51:47,040 --> 00:51:48,839
Speaker 1: season with an A c L injury, right, I think

1040
00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:50,799
Speaker 1: it's an a c L. But uh, you know, during

1041
00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:53,240
Speaker 1: the two thousand thirteen season when the games where Houston

1042
00:51:53,280 --> 00:51:56,040
Speaker 1: doesn't did not play, Alex Smith averaged almost a full

1043
00:51:56,120 --> 00:51:59,880
Speaker 1: twenty yards per game more passing in those games. Uh So,

1044
00:52:00,280 --> 00:52:03,120
Speaker 1: and Maclin owns just again back to target share, a

1045
00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:07,640
Speaker 1: dominant percent of the team's passing targets he owned last year. Like,

1046
00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:10,160
Speaker 1: that's up there with the elite wide receivers in the NFL.

1047
00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:12,200
Speaker 1: And while there's not a ton of volume last year

1048
00:52:12,239 --> 00:52:14,959
Speaker 1: in Kansas City, to assume that could change this year. Yeah,

1049
00:52:15,360 --> 00:52:17,560
Speaker 1: the and like twenty yards per game might seem small,

1050
00:52:17,600 --> 00:52:19,520
Speaker 1: but over the course of a year, that's not insignificant

1051
00:52:19,520 --> 00:52:21,600
Speaker 1: if most of those yards are being funnel to the

1052
00:52:21,680 --> 00:52:23,839
Speaker 1: number one option like Machlin. So I think franchise, we've

1053
00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:25,520
Speaker 1: talked about it on this podcast before, and I forget

1054
00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:26,719
Speaker 1: if you were here for that one or not, Harmon,

1055
00:52:26,760 --> 00:52:28,359
Speaker 1: but I know we're both in on Maclin in those

1056
00:52:28,360 --> 00:52:31,520
Speaker 1: mid round mid round range and oh, definitely he's super

1057
00:52:31,640 --> 00:52:34,000
Speaker 1: value picking like ground five I think he's got a

1058
00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:35,880
Speaker 1: safe floor and his ceiling. It wouldn't surprise me if

1059
00:52:35,880 --> 00:52:37,759
Speaker 1: you finished as a wide receiver one this year. Else

1060
00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:41,320
Speaker 1: he's just so dark good. He's hashtag good at football.

1061
00:52:41,360 --> 00:52:43,120
Speaker 1: He's just curd of football. I mean, that's the thing.

1062
00:52:43,160 --> 00:52:45,239
Speaker 1: I don't mind picking him just because the talent level

1063
00:52:45,280 --> 00:52:48,320
Speaker 1: man is there. All right, let's talk about the Chargers.

1064
00:52:48,360 --> 00:52:50,399
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna be an absolute train wreck next

1065
00:52:50,440 --> 00:52:55,520
Speaker 1: year really from a win loss perspective, From a win

1066
00:52:55,640 --> 00:52:59,200
Speaker 1: loss perspective, Oh yeah, they're gonna be. I'm not here

1067
00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:01,960
Speaker 1: to talk about real Booky're gonna be a mask man. Uh.

1068
00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:05,480
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers, Uh, he has been. I want to say,

1069
00:53:05,480 --> 00:53:08,200
Speaker 1: he's been pretty darn reliable. You kind of sort of

1070
00:53:08,239 --> 00:53:12,239
Speaker 1: know what you're gonna get. Um, he's a great late

1071
00:53:12,320 --> 00:53:16,520
Speaker 1: round quarterback value. It's so funny too, because he's always there.

1072
00:53:16,680 --> 00:53:18,960
Speaker 1: Whenever I'm like looking at draft a quarterback and and

1073
00:53:19,200 --> 00:53:21,239
Speaker 1: I'm and I'm guilty of this too. I always not

1074
00:53:21,280 --> 00:53:24,040
Speaker 1: take him. You don't take him. Why, I don't know.

1075
00:53:24,480 --> 00:53:26,680
Speaker 1: And every single time I passed on him, like I

1076
00:53:26,760 --> 00:53:28,640
Speaker 1: probably should have taken Philip Rivers, I kind of do

1077
00:53:28,719 --> 00:53:30,200
Speaker 1: the same thing, you know, now that you mentioned it,

1078
00:53:30,239 --> 00:53:31,920
Speaker 1: I'm always like, well, I can't get Eli, man, like

1079
00:53:32,080 --> 00:53:35,279
Speaker 1: try should have taken right exactly. Or it's like, oh,

1080
00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:38,480
Speaker 1: I take Marcus Mariotta. I'm like, yeah, probably shouldn't just

1081
00:53:38,520 --> 00:53:40,439
Speaker 1: taken Philip Rivers right there. Like I think we get

1082
00:53:40,480 --> 00:53:43,160
Speaker 1: we get so in like so obsessed with these guys,

1083
00:53:43,280 --> 00:53:46,240
Speaker 1: like you know, Marks Mariotta or Jamis Winston or Derek

1084
00:53:46,239 --> 00:53:48,279
Speaker 1: Carly the guys, and then you know, every once in

1085
00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:49,680
Speaker 1: a while you get a Blake Bordles out of that,

1086
00:53:49,719 --> 00:53:51,760
Speaker 1: then you get a top five quarterback. But Philip Rivers

1087
00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:54,439
Speaker 1: is always there. Man. I love Philip Rivers. The last

1088
00:53:54,440 --> 00:53:56,040
Speaker 1: time he had Ken Wizzen Hunt there, he had one

1089
00:53:56,040 --> 00:53:58,239
Speaker 1: of his best seasons. He completed almost seventy percent of

1090
00:53:58,280 --> 00:54:02,880
Speaker 1: his passes touchdowns yards. He's a guy who's a career

1091
00:54:02,920 --> 00:54:05,719
Speaker 1: touchdown rate of five point three percent. So it hasn't

1092
00:54:05,719 --> 00:54:08,319
Speaker 1: fluctuated a ton. He's got Keenan Allen there. He's got

1093
00:54:08,360 --> 00:54:11,080
Speaker 1: Travis Benjamin now, I mean Stevie Johnson. Injury hurts a

1094
00:54:11,080 --> 00:54:12,880
Speaker 1: little bit, but he's got weapons. He got the offensive

1095
00:54:12,880 --> 00:54:15,400
Speaker 1: coordinator back. The defense is still a bit of a

1096
00:54:15,440 --> 00:54:18,000
Speaker 1: work in progress. I love Philip Rivers like my favorite

1097
00:54:18,040 --> 00:54:21,360
Speaker 1: late round quarterback to get you know, um to your point, Alex.

1098
00:54:21,440 --> 00:54:22,920
Speaker 1: Now that now that you mentioned it, the more I

1099
00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:24,640
Speaker 1: start thinking about it, the more I get excited. Right

1100
00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:27,080
Speaker 1: because like again, I I do believe it's going to

1101
00:54:27,160 --> 00:54:29,600
Speaker 1: be a train wreck in terms of the win loss um,

1102
00:54:29,640 --> 00:54:31,200
Speaker 1: And you're right, I think they're going to be involved

1103
00:54:31,200 --> 00:54:35,120
Speaker 1: in a few more shootouts. Um and with Travil. Here's

1104
00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:37,799
Speaker 1: the thing about that offense that was really lacking and

1105
00:54:37,840 --> 00:54:44,160
Speaker 1: what Philip Rivers players healthy players, But I thought the

1106
00:54:44,239 --> 00:54:47,880
Speaker 1: offense looks so much better when Malcolm Floyd could actually

1107
00:54:47,920 --> 00:54:51,279
Speaker 1: get downfield, UM and when and when they didn't have

1108
00:54:51,480 --> 00:54:55,160
Speaker 1: that downfield guy. And Philip Rivers loves to go downfield,

1109
00:54:55,160 --> 00:54:57,319
Speaker 1: by the way, so it's like when they didn't have

1110
00:54:57,400 --> 00:55:00,440
Speaker 1: that option, I think it really hurt him. Um. Having

1111
00:55:00,480 --> 00:55:05,200
Speaker 1: Travis Benjamin, who is one of those elite downfield speed guys,

1112
00:55:05,480 --> 00:55:08,000
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna open up the offense a lot. Yeah,

1113
00:55:08,040 --> 00:55:09,799
Speaker 1: that matters a lot. I wrote a piece about the

1114
00:55:09,840 --> 00:55:13,880
Speaker 1: Chargers receiving corps last week and then Stevie Johnson proceeded

1115
00:55:13,920 --> 00:55:17,840
Speaker 1: to get hurt whoops. It seems to be happening a

1116
00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:20,400
Speaker 1: lot lately. Stop stop writing about plays. I should probably,

1117
00:55:20,440 --> 00:55:23,479
Speaker 1: but then you guys stop paying me, so I can't.

1118
00:55:23,520 --> 00:55:26,400
Speaker 1: I can't really have that. But anyways, that deep threat

1119
00:55:26,600 --> 00:55:30,000
Speaker 1: is super important to the Chargers offense because the way

1120
00:55:30,080 --> 00:55:31,799
Speaker 1: Keenan Allen plays, the way the game, the way that

1121
00:55:31,800 --> 00:55:35,120
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers is a really insipiatory passer. Yeah they have

1122
00:55:35,160 --> 00:55:37,279
Speaker 1: a ton of short to intermediate threats and yeah they

1123
00:55:37,320 --> 00:55:39,000
Speaker 1: are great at that, but they need that lid pop

1124
00:55:39,160 --> 00:55:41,800
Speaker 1: er two. And like you mentioned, he is Travis Benjamin.

1125
00:55:41,840 --> 00:55:44,960
Speaker 1: That is is a great deep threat. His sixty percent

1126
00:55:45,520 --> 00:55:48,399
Speaker 1: success rate on go routes is one of the top

1127
00:55:48,440 --> 00:55:50,640
Speaker 1: five scores that I've ever had. So he's a really

1128
00:55:50,680 --> 00:55:52,719
Speaker 1: really good player. I mean, dude was chucking up with

1129
00:55:52,760 --> 00:55:56,000
Speaker 1: Johnny Man's all last year like that he's got. Now

1130
00:55:56,040 --> 00:55:58,279
Speaker 1: he's got the baron of the Bolo tie throwing on

1131
00:55:58,360 --> 00:56:01,279
Speaker 1: the ball. I'm excited. It's aid upgrades. Let's talk about

1132
00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:04,200
Speaker 1: the running backs little bit, because I know, franchise, you're years.

1133
00:56:04,239 --> 00:56:06,279
Speaker 1: We have to either you're driving the hype train on

1134
00:56:06,320 --> 00:56:08,160
Speaker 1: Melvin Gored or it's like you and Brad Evans are

1135
00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:11,520
Speaker 1: in the camboose together. I'm I'm there too, Like I'm

1136
00:56:11,520 --> 00:56:14,000
Speaker 1: at least riding shotgun if nothing else. You guys are

1137
00:56:14,040 --> 00:56:18,120
Speaker 1: like stones cars where they're paddling with their feet. Look,

1138
00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:20,000
Speaker 1: last time Ken wizzen Hunt was in San Diego and

1139
00:56:20,960 --> 00:56:24,719
Speaker 1: Ryan Ryan Matthews two five rush attempts, one thousand, two

1140
00:56:24,760 --> 00:56:27,440
Speaker 1: hundred fifty five rush yards. Pretty good. What was the

1141
00:56:27,520 --> 00:56:31,200
Speaker 1: record that year? That year? What was seven? That year?

1142
00:56:31,280 --> 00:56:34,200
Speaker 1: Danny Woodhead also had over a thousand total yards and

1143
00:56:34,239 --> 00:56:36,600
Speaker 1: I think eight total touchdowns. So we're talking about the

1144
00:56:36,640 --> 00:56:40,719
Speaker 1: running backs split. Interesting that you know both backs had

1145
00:56:40,880 --> 00:56:43,880
Speaker 1: over a thousand yards and a handful of touchdowns. So

1146
00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:46,480
Speaker 1: what was Danny Woodhead's injury? I think it was like

1147
00:56:46,600 --> 00:56:50,960
Speaker 1: some kind of broken legs. Yeah, it was an ankle,

1148
00:56:51,040 --> 00:56:54,000
Speaker 1: I think it was. But he came back great last year.

1149
00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:57,719
Speaker 1: He did, so I think both of these guys can

1150
00:56:57,800 --> 00:56:59,359
Speaker 1: have value, and I think they're both kind of priced

1151
00:56:59,400 --> 00:57:03,400
Speaker 1: appropriately in the like, I don't know, fifth to eighth

1152
00:57:03,480 --> 00:57:05,640
Speaker 1: round range, depending on your league and where they fall.

1153
00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:08,000
Speaker 1: I mean, franchise, you took Melvin Gordon in our fourth

1154
00:57:08,080 --> 00:57:10,200
Speaker 1: round of our Big twelve team mock recently. It was

1155
00:57:10,239 --> 00:57:11,920
Speaker 1: a little bit of which you guys can find at

1156
00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:14,440
Speaker 1: NFL dot com Slash Fantasy mock drafts. Right, that's what

1157
00:57:14,480 --> 00:57:18,240
Speaker 1: we set that up as fantasy mock drafts. With his

1158
00:57:18,280 --> 00:57:20,280
Speaker 1: ADP has been on the rise over the last month.

1159
00:57:20,320 --> 00:57:22,640
Speaker 1: He's still going like beginning of the sixth round and

1160
00:57:22,680 --> 00:57:25,680
Speaker 1: twelve team league. So that's that's a bargain. I mean,

1161
00:57:25,720 --> 00:57:29,080
Speaker 1: I would say that the fear about Danny Woodhead, and

1162
00:57:29,120 --> 00:57:30,400
Speaker 1: you know, do you know how we all feel in

1163
00:57:30,400 --> 00:57:36,600
Speaker 1: the stronghold about Danny Woodhead because that people stay if

1164
00:57:36,720 --> 00:57:39,680
Speaker 1: you know, Keenan Allen stays healthy, Travis Benjamin's there all year.

1165
00:57:39,920 --> 00:57:42,680
Speaker 1: You know, if Antonio Gates has something even close to

1166
00:57:42,680 --> 00:57:46,040
Speaker 1: what he did last season, those targets are going to

1167
00:57:46,160 --> 00:57:48,520
Speaker 1: be cut significantly for Woodhit. I mean, he led the

1168
00:57:48,560 --> 00:57:51,800
Speaker 1: team in targets by a long way, but mostly because

1169
00:57:52,240 --> 00:57:54,480
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers didn't have anybody else to throw the football.

1170
00:57:54,800 --> 00:57:59,840
Speaker 1: Everybody hurt. Did he lead the team and receiving yards? Uh?

1171
00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:02,960
Speaker 1: Might have? I think now, mind you, Keenan Allen also

1172
00:58:03,160 --> 00:58:05,560
Speaker 1: missed eight games and was second on the team and

1173
00:58:05,600 --> 00:58:08,480
Speaker 1: targets and receiving yards, which says a lot about Oh,

1174
00:58:08,680 --> 00:58:12,560
Speaker 1: they still had their likete Hernan. And like, I think

1175
00:58:12,600 --> 00:58:15,160
Speaker 1: you're certainly right, Marcus, we shouldn't expect like a hundred

1176
00:58:15,200 --> 00:58:16,880
Speaker 1: and six. I mean, it's just what happened. I mean,

1177
00:58:17,040 --> 00:58:19,600
Speaker 1: if if he has a hundred targets, things were terribly

1178
00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:21,560
Speaker 1: wrong for the trust. Even if he falls down to

1179
00:58:21,600 --> 00:58:24,080
Speaker 1: like the sixty seventy range, that's still a great amount

1180
00:58:24,120 --> 00:58:26,040
Speaker 1: of volume for a back like that. Who's gonna get

1181
00:58:26,040 --> 00:58:28,160
Speaker 1: a few carries so catch us passes and he turns him.

1182
00:58:28,280 --> 00:58:29,520
Speaker 1: I guess what he was last year. I mean, he

1183
00:58:29,720 --> 00:58:31,600
Speaker 1: way overperformed because of all the injuries, but he was

1184
00:58:31,640 --> 00:58:33,600
Speaker 1: always a safe floor play. I mean you could lock

1185
00:58:33,640 --> 00:58:36,000
Speaker 1: him up for fifty receptions no, yeah, yeah, and he's

1186
00:58:36,080 --> 00:58:39,520
Speaker 1: he's the primary red zone back in Ken Wizts. Last

1187
00:58:39,520 --> 00:58:42,720
Speaker 1: time there, he handled a whopping forty red zone type

1188
00:58:42,920 --> 00:58:45,360
Speaker 1: you know, not just carries, but also as a receiver,

1189
00:58:45,840 --> 00:58:48,680
Speaker 1: and he outtouched uh. I think he outtouched Ryan Matthews

1190
00:58:48,720 --> 00:58:50,560
Speaker 1: inside the ten yard line too. I Mean, here's the

1191
00:58:50,560 --> 00:58:53,160
Speaker 1: thing that when you got Philip Rivers, you're gonna give

1192
00:58:53,240 --> 00:58:55,800
Speaker 1: him the ball uh in the red zone. Um, and

1193
00:58:55,840 --> 00:58:58,440
Speaker 1: it's Danny Woodhead fits into what they want to do.

1194
00:58:58,480 --> 00:59:01,080
Speaker 1: They're gonna give the ball to to your best player

1195
00:59:01,600 --> 00:59:03,640
Speaker 1: in score situation. I mean he's that he's that chest

1196
00:59:03,680 --> 00:59:06,200
Speaker 1: movable chess piece that gives them more missage in a

1197
00:59:06,240 --> 00:59:09,040
Speaker 1: short area space like the red zone where they don't

1198
00:59:09,080 --> 00:59:11,480
Speaker 1: have a massive receiver and gates as old as hell

1199
00:59:11,560 --> 00:59:13,680
Speaker 1: now and you know, Keenan Allen's not like, you know,

1200
00:59:13,720 --> 00:59:15,320
Speaker 1: he's not des Brian in the red zone, so that

1201
00:59:15,320 --> 00:59:16,800
Speaker 1: it makes sense why they give Danny Wood had a

1202
00:59:16,800 --> 00:59:18,720
Speaker 1: lot of touches there and those are valuable for a

1203
00:59:18,760 --> 00:59:20,960
Speaker 1: player like him who has limited touches. All right, let's

1204
00:59:20,960 --> 00:59:23,080
Speaker 1: do it. Let's talk family update, all right. Who wants

1205
00:59:23,080 --> 00:59:24,520
Speaker 1: to who wants to go first? Who wants to usher

1206
00:59:24,560 --> 00:59:25,960
Speaker 1: the first person in? You know, I feel like I

1207
00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:36,880
Speaker 1: feel like so first, remind everybody the leagues are ongoing

1208
00:59:37,080 --> 00:59:39,680
Speaker 1: and you can still submit, just rate and review the

1209
00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:42,520
Speaker 1: podcast on iTunes or your app or whatever. We will

1210
00:59:42,560 --> 00:59:44,400
Speaker 1: look at him there. It also helps to take a

1211
00:59:44,440 --> 00:59:45,960
Speaker 1: screen grab and tweet it to me so I can

1212
00:59:46,040 --> 00:59:47,640
Speaker 1: favorite them, because it's a quicker way for me to

1213
00:59:47,640 --> 00:59:49,560
Speaker 1: get to them. And sometimes I think that it's a

1214
00:59:49,600 --> 00:59:52,000
Speaker 1: little clunky on iTunes looking at all the reviews, especially

1215
00:59:52,040 --> 00:59:54,200
Speaker 1: because thank you guys for pouring so many in. It's

1216
00:59:54,240 --> 00:59:56,720
Speaker 1: been the you know, the response and support has been

1217
00:59:56,760 --> 00:59:59,640
Speaker 1: awesome and it's fun reading, fun reading what you guys thinking,

1218
00:59:59,720 --> 01:00:02,240
Speaker 1: you know, are the reason we're here anyways. But alright,

1219
01:00:02,240 --> 01:00:05,000
Speaker 1: so Marcus, we had decided on let's see, was it

1220
01:00:05,080 --> 01:00:06,920
Speaker 1: the last one I sent you? I think I believe

1221
01:00:06,960 --> 01:00:09,560
Speaker 1: it was the last hold on slack um. I know

1222
01:00:09,640 --> 01:00:12,560
Speaker 1: it remains nameless on the A T N podcast, but

1223
01:00:12,560 --> 01:00:14,480
Speaker 1: it's just moving a little slowly for me here on

1224
01:00:14,480 --> 01:00:17,200
Speaker 1: my computer. Not have those sort of grudges. Here, we're going.

1225
01:00:17,280 --> 01:00:20,000
Speaker 1: We're going with the game one correct. Yes, okay, so

1226
01:00:20,160 --> 01:00:23,720
Speaker 1: this review came in from Oh great, now I pulled

1227
01:00:23,760 --> 01:00:26,760
Speaker 1: it full. There we go. Wait, no, no no, no, I'm sorry,

1228
01:00:26,960 --> 01:00:36,600
Speaker 1: Eric kept kis Steve Harvey. Sorry, good thing. We let

1229
01:00:36,600 --> 01:00:43,280
Speaker 1: you guys go first. You're actually the runner up, son,

1230
01:00:44,280 --> 01:00:47,400
Speaker 1: Eric kept Ki is that at m movers on Twitter?

1231
01:00:47,440 --> 01:00:50,040
Speaker 1: I believe so. Rate to the podcast one of the

1232
01:00:50,080 --> 01:00:52,200
Speaker 1: most entertaining fantasy podcast My wife and I listened to

1233
01:00:52,240 --> 01:00:54,840
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Football podcast um and while some of the

1234
01:00:54,880 --> 01:00:57,120
Speaker 1: shows make it down to some statistics faster or use

1235
01:00:57,160 --> 01:01:00,400
Speaker 1: a system, these guys make it the most fun. My

1236
01:01:00,440 --> 01:01:02,880
Speaker 1: wife now dislikes all other fantasy podcasts except this one

1237
01:01:02,920 --> 01:01:05,240
Speaker 1: because these guys are just way more entertaining. We appreciate that.

1238
01:01:05,320 --> 01:01:08,160
Speaker 1: Thank you, big gift shouts out to our arguments and

1239
01:01:08,280 --> 01:01:11,520
Speaker 1: random things stuff like March and danger Zone says, these

1240
01:01:11,520 --> 01:01:14,240
Speaker 1: guys take their job seriously, but not themselves. And now

1241
01:01:15,040 --> 01:01:17,760
Speaker 1: the reason, the reason ericin maybe his wife, they want

1242
01:01:17,760 --> 01:01:19,280
Speaker 1: to co manage the team we're getting into the O

1243
01:01:19,400 --> 01:01:21,960
Speaker 1: G fan league is because he said that they have.

1244
01:01:22,280 --> 01:01:24,960
Speaker 1: With the show coming on Tuesdays and Friday's. Usually on Friday's,

1245
01:01:24,960 --> 01:01:27,240
Speaker 1: they used the show for a little weekend game. Uh.

1246
01:01:27,280 --> 01:01:28,800
Speaker 1: And the rules change a bit from week to week

1247
01:01:28,840 --> 01:01:31,360
Speaker 1: depending on hot players and whatnot. But the current rules

1248
01:01:31,360 --> 01:01:36,680
Speaker 1: are one drink fantasies of soda Comma. Anytime you hear

1249
01:01:36,680 --> 01:01:41,720
Speaker 1: fantasy freaks and geeks, which they start the show, Yeah, great,

1250
01:01:41,920 --> 01:01:44,520
Speaker 1: and a rank appears on the show. I mentioned Green Bay,

1251
01:01:44,560 --> 01:01:48,000
Speaker 1: the Packers or Wisconsin. James opinion has switched long term,

1252
01:01:48,040 --> 01:01:50,800
Speaker 1: as in, you were early QB, now you're late QB.

1253
01:01:51,440 --> 01:01:55,800
Speaker 1: Anyone anyone uses the term stud or freak mentioning bad

1254
01:01:55,840 --> 01:01:58,760
Speaker 1: bus from last year like a doula Lacey. Anytime someone

1255
01:01:58,880 --> 01:02:03,160
Speaker 1: uses the word suspension, gee, James says, man, you are

1256
01:02:03,240 --> 01:02:06,240
Speaker 1: going to be on the ground. Well, that's why they

1257
01:02:05,560 --> 01:02:08,760
Speaker 1: that's why they drink, So we're gonna have a crazy

1258
01:02:08,760 --> 01:02:12,400
Speaker 1: sugar to drinks. Anytime Harmon mentions Alan Robinson or someone

1259
01:02:12,440 --> 01:02:16,440
Speaker 1: mentions Robinson, I thought that was aggressive to drinks for that,

1260
01:02:16,440 --> 01:02:19,880
Speaker 1: that's a lot. Yet today Adam Rank mentions professional wrestling.

1261
01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:24,120
Speaker 1: James switches his opinion mid show if anyone's this tangent

1262
01:02:24,360 --> 01:02:26,120
Speaker 1: or this show went off the rails, so that's me.

1263
01:02:27,520 --> 01:02:31,760
Speaker 1: Every episode, Fabriano mentions points against team specific to a position.

1264
01:02:32,040 --> 01:02:36,200
Speaker 1: UH Danger's owner marsh mentioned three drinks, James mentions forty

1265
01:02:36,200 --> 01:02:41,240
Speaker 1: times or other common uh Gostkowski has mentioned as a

1266
01:02:41,280 --> 01:02:44,160
Speaker 1: draft choice before the thirteenth round. We comment on the

1267
01:02:44,200 --> 01:02:47,240
Speaker 1: way someone on the show looks Harmon's beard franchise is

1268
01:02:47,280 --> 01:02:50,040
Speaker 1: beard shirts with ties, et cetera, or Gronk is mentioned,

1269
01:02:50,560 --> 01:02:55,240
Speaker 1: and four drinks anyone anytime anyone. Usually Alex gets excited

1270
01:02:55,240 --> 01:02:57,880
Speaker 1: about Tyrod Taylor because their bills fans of you know,

1271
01:02:59,680 --> 01:03:02,120
Speaker 1: in the pain. But all right, so the first entrance

1272
01:03:02,160 --> 01:03:05,880
Speaker 1: then into the O G family, for seen is Eric

1273
01:03:05,960 --> 01:03:09,320
Speaker 1: Kepki at m mover eazy on Twitter. So hit me up.

1274
01:03:09,320 --> 01:03:11,440
Speaker 1: We'll be reaching out to get your info for the league.

1275
01:03:11,440 --> 01:03:13,320
Speaker 1: And the reason I like that is that it is

1276
01:03:13,400 --> 01:03:19,439
Speaker 1: clear that dude, they listen. It wasn't just everybody else.

1277
01:03:19,480 --> 01:03:21,440
Speaker 1: Don't don't tweet in making a game now. But you

1278
01:03:21,480 --> 01:03:23,120
Speaker 1: know their review at the top was was nice and

1279
01:03:23,120 --> 01:03:24,840
Speaker 1: stuff anyways, but that was just a fun thing, and

1280
01:03:24,920 --> 01:03:26,920
Speaker 1: you know for the first one. But the fact that

1281
01:03:26,920 --> 01:03:31,720
Speaker 1: they were referencing stuff from way, that's the whole points

1282
01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:36,160
Speaker 1: that is solid, all right, bearded leg give me give

1283
01:03:36,200 --> 01:03:40,520
Speaker 1: me a guy. Yeah, this is this comes from iTunes

1284
01:03:40,560 --> 01:03:46,000
Speaker 1: comment er see Alan six to five. The subject was

1285
01:03:46,120 --> 01:03:52,360
Speaker 1: love peanut butter and you're still and you're still see this,

1286
01:03:52,800 --> 01:03:55,560
Speaker 1: Like the previous commenter said, you know, we don't take

1287
01:03:55,560 --> 01:03:57,800
Speaker 1: ourselves seriously here this. I'm gonna get slammed several times

1288
01:03:57,840 --> 01:03:59,680
Speaker 1: in this review. But that's why I like it. It's

1289
01:03:59,720 --> 01:04:02,040
Speaker 1: a good group of guys with great football. Dot Dot

1290
01:04:02,080 --> 01:04:05,480
Speaker 1: doesn't fill out screen anyways. Wife says facial hair is

1291
01:04:05,520 --> 01:04:09,160
Speaker 1: the vote, so sorry fanchise and boy Young Boy harmon.

1292
01:04:09,440 --> 01:04:12,200
Speaker 1: That's a living to stream throwback. We'll explain that. Look

1293
01:04:12,240 --> 01:04:14,720
Speaker 1: forward to the pod each week as it has a

1294
01:04:14,760 --> 01:04:17,640
Speaker 1: great balance of analytics and banter. Although the true champ

1295
01:04:17,640 --> 01:04:20,400
Speaker 1: of the Fantasy Stronghold is whoever can keep rank from

1296
01:04:20,440 --> 01:04:22,560
Speaker 1: going off on tangents would love to join one of

1297
01:04:22,600 --> 01:04:25,840
Speaker 1: the leagues if possible. Keeping up fellas nice. Okay, you're

1298
01:04:25,840 --> 01:04:28,480
Speaker 1: in the Beard League. Even though facial hair is the

1299
01:04:28,520 --> 01:04:30,600
Speaker 1: vote according to your wife, you're in the Beard League.

1300
01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:34,439
Speaker 1: It's a contrarian play. We'll see if it works. That's good.

1301
01:04:34,480 --> 01:04:38,160
Speaker 1: I like it. I will name somebody into the Danger's

1302
01:04:38,240 --> 01:04:41,200
Speaker 1: Own League Dangers. They keep in mind, we're going sixteen

1303
01:04:41,200 --> 01:04:43,320
Speaker 1: teams here, so you're gonna have to get some deep knowledge.

1304
01:04:43,440 --> 01:04:45,280
Speaker 1: You're gonna have to pick up some danger zone players

1305
01:04:45,320 --> 01:04:51,520
Speaker 1: like Cameron brad Oh yeah, how about at Robbie Steves.

1306
01:04:52,320 --> 01:04:55,160
Speaker 1: The reason he's going to get into the league. Forget

1307
01:04:55,160 --> 01:04:56,960
Speaker 1: about the review. I don't even know what the review is.

1308
01:04:57,000 --> 01:04:59,960
Speaker 1: What what? What's the reviews? Don't worry about it? Great,

1309
01:05:00,480 --> 01:05:03,640
Speaker 1: great show. Makes you feel like you're there with them,

1310
01:05:03,680 --> 01:05:09,000
Speaker 1: Okay whatever. Uh. The real reason Robbie Steve's he's getting

1311
01:05:09,000 --> 01:05:16,600
Speaker 1: into the league. He just murdered MS Paint and he

1312
01:05:16,640 --> 01:05:19,480
Speaker 1: created a wheel that said, who does James co hate

1313
01:05:19,600 --> 01:05:21,439
Speaker 1: the most? We've referred to it as the Wheel of hate.

1314
01:05:21,480 --> 01:05:24,360
Speaker 1: Now it is the wheel of hate. Um, it is

1315
01:05:24,400 --> 01:05:28,200
Speaker 1: just a simple wheel. It's got Eric Decker, Jonathan Stewart,

1316
01:05:28,640 --> 01:05:33,960
Speaker 1: Melvin Gordon, Josh Gordon, mark Ingram, the Chicago Bears, Backfield,

1317
01:05:34,040 --> 01:05:41,200
Speaker 1: and Matt Harmon, who's an idiot. Yes, uh, the fact

1318
01:05:41,280 --> 01:05:44,560
Speaker 1: that you took time to uh again murder ms paint.

1319
01:05:45,520 --> 01:05:49,240
Speaker 1: Kudos to you, man, kudos to you. Yes, no, absolutely,

1320

Speaker 1: Robbie at Robbie Steves, you're in the Danger's Only Kid. Congratulations.

1321
01:05:54,240 --> 01:05:56,200
Speaker 1: All right, So, and to everybody you know, you don't

1322
01:05:56,240 --> 01:05:58,200
Speaker 1: have to come up with something crazy like this. Straight

1323
01:05:58,240 --> 01:06:00,800
Speaker 1: heartfelt reviews can also make it as much. Keep them coming.

1324
01:06:00,920 --> 01:06:03,480

1326
01:06:05,760 --> 01:06:08,080
Speaker 1: Mentions are busy sometimes got other crap going on, so

1327
01:06:08,240 --> 01:06:11,560
Speaker 1: you have to stay on it. Subscribe, you have to

1328
01:06:12,040 --> 01:06:15,280
Speaker 1: rate and review. And again, you don't have to leave

1329
01:06:15,360 --> 01:06:17,480
Speaker 1: five stars. That doesn't make a good difference. You can

1330
01:06:17,560 --> 01:06:19,920
Speaker 1: leave it one star. I don't care if your review

1331
01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:24,400
Speaker 1: is funny. You yeah, I can say bro like James

1332

Speaker 1: stopped saying bro. Alice, stop talking about Wisconsin. This podcast sucks.

1333
01:06:27,960 --> 01:06:29,880

01:06:29,880 --> 01:06:32,560
Speaker 1: getting in the Beard league. If you're say the podcast sucks. Sorry,

1335
01:06:32,600 --> 01:06:34,440
Speaker 1: spoiler alert. Well, first of all, if you said the

1336
01:06:34,440 --> 01:06:36,680
Speaker 1: podcast sucks, that's not a great take. That's not a

1337
01:06:36,680 --> 01:06:41,920
Speaker 1: great because it's wrong. Podcast its awesome. Uh, subscribe, I

01:06:43,960 --> 01:06:46,520

01:06:46,560 --> 01:06:48,640
Speaker 1: to be considered for one of those three leagues, the

1341
01:06:48,680 --> 01:06:50,520
Speaker 1: o G, the Beard or the danger Us Only. All right,

01:07:11,520 --> 01:07:13,920
Speaker 1: the podcast to get in the league's thing made me

01:08:36,360 --> 01:08:39,559
Speaker 1: daily dap. And I think I've dapped him before. Rick Reminder,

1374
01:08:39,720 --> 01:08:44,080
Speaker 1: who is currently my favorite comic writer. Um, everything that

1375
01:08:44,120 --> 01:08:46,880
Speaker 1: I've picked up by him has been gold. And a

1376
01:08:46,880 --> 01:08:49,200
Speaker 1: couple of new couple of recent things that I've read

1377
01:08:49,240 --> 01:08:50,800
Speaker 1: that I really love. He just put out the first

1378
01:08:50,880 --> 01:08:52,760
Speaker 1: volume I guess it was out a couple of months ago,

1379
01:08:53,520 --> 01:08:55,519
Speaker 1: of a new one called Tokyo Ghost, which I think

1380
01:08:55,560 --> 01:08:58,040
Speaker 1: is fantastic. I'm also reading the first couple of volumes

1381
01:08:58,040 --> 01:09:00,840
Speaker 1: of Low, which is really at the parture from a

1382
01:09:00,840 --> 01:09:03,160
Speaker 1: lot of the other things he's done generally with with

1383
01:09:03,240 --> 01:09:05,599
Speaker 1: his stories. It jumps right into the action and you

1384
01:09:05,640 --> 01:09:07,800
Speaker 1: just go. This one has been more of a slow burn,

1385
01:09:07,880 --> 01:09:09,720
Speaker 1: and so I've been really curious to follow that. So

1386
01:09:09,720 --> 01:09:11,240
Speaker 1: I got through the first two volumes, which has been

1387
01:09:11,240 --> 01:09:14,840
Speaker 1: absolutely amazing. And today, probably after I leave work at

1388
01:09:14,840 --> 01:09:17,360
Speaker 1: some point, I'm going to the store because volume four

1389
01:09:17,920 --> 01:09:20,639
Speaker 1: of Deadly Class came out this week. And of all

1390
01:09:20,680 --> 01:09:22,360

1393
01:09:29,720 --> 01:09:33,040

1394
01:09:33,080 --> 01:09:36,000
Speaker 1: So I have been anticipating volume four Deadly Class for

1395
01:09:36,040 --> 01:09:39,479
Speaker 1: several even more than Saga. I love Saga. I love Saga,

1396
01:09:39,600 --> 01:09:42,839
Speaker 1: love it a lot. Deadly Class to me is next level. Um.

1397

01:09:58,160 --> 01:10:00,160
Speaker 1: I'm fired to go. But on top of that, more

1404
01:10:00,160 --> 01:10:03,320
Speaker 1: than that is actually read recently that Deadly Class is

1405
01:10:03,439 --> 01:10:07,040
Speaker 1: being converted into I believe, an animated series. So I

1406
01:10:07,120 --> 01:10:10,439
Speaker 1: am super super fired up about that. I love Rick Reminder.

1407

1435
01:11:26,479 --> 01:11:29,280
Speaker 1: I'm gonna Daily Dap nicknames because obviously, if you guys

1436
01:11:29,280 --> 01:11:30,960
Speaker 1: listen to podcasts, I come up a lot of nicknames.

1437
01:11:30,960 --> 01:11:32,680
Speaker 1: But I don't know why I like doing it. I

1438
01:11:32,720 --> 01:11:35,080
Speaker 1: like Chris Berman. I like Chris Berman. Yeah, man, Chris

1439
01:11:35,160 --> 01:11:37,639
Speaker 1: Berman was one of my inspirations to get into this business.

1440
01:11:37,760 --> 01:11:39,640
Speaker 1: He did a lot of nicknames. Thus I do a

1441
01:11:39,640 --> 01:11:42,160
Speaker 1: lot of nicknames. Man. I will never forget watching NFL

1442
01:11:42,200 --> 01:11:44,479
Speaker 1: Prime Time on Sunday nights. That was when I was younger.

1443
01:11:44,600 --> 01:11:47,320
Speaker 1: That was must see. Built my Sunday afternoons around it.

1444
01:11:47,360 --> 01:11:49,000
Speaker 1: And I know Burman sometimes gets a bad rap these

1445
01:11:49,080 --> 01:11:51,360
Speaker 1: days by some people, and I'm like, no way. He

1446
01:11:51,439 --> 01:11:54,600
Speaker 1: did so much and he was so great, like rumbling stumbling,

1447
01:11:54,760 --> 01:11:57,439
Speaker 1: like anytime Michael Stott had a touchdown. I loved it.

1448
01:11:57,439 --> 01:11:59,800
Speaker 1: It was awesome. And that leads into my daily DApp

1449
01:11:59,840 --> 01:12:03,000
Speaker 1: of Tom Jackson. Yeah, it was stepping away. He was

1450
01:12:03,760 --> 01:12:06,840
Speaker 1: Chris Burman's running mate for a long time and also

1451
01:12:07,040 --> 01:12:09,200
Speaker 1: one of the guys that that I admired growing up.

1452
01:12:09,479 --> 01:12:11,600
Speaker 1: It just man, they had such a great chemistry and

1453
01:12:11,640 --> 01:12:13,479
Speaker 1: it was great watching them. And you know, he was

1454
01:12:13,560 --> 01:12:15,840
Speaker 1: the straight man to Chris Burman's you know, crazy guy

1455
01:12:16,200 --> 01:12:19,240
Speaker 1: a routine and it was good man, It was good stuff. Anyways, Um,

1456
01:12:19,360 --> 01:12:21,280
Speaker 1: it kind of inspired me to think about the well.

1457
01:12:21,280 --> 01:12:25,520
Speaker 1: First of all, Matt Harmon's followers are scary and trillions.

1458
01:12:25,640 --> 01:12:30,680
Speaker 1: The Harmored division, the Harmored division, Um, that's when they

1459
01:12:30,680 --> 01:12:33,320
Speaker 1: get aggressive. Generally, I like to call your your followers.

1460
01:12:33,360 --> 01:12:36,519
Speaker 1: The Harmonites just rolls off the tongue. The franchise ease,

1461
01:12:36,920 --> 01:12:41,400
Speaker 1: I'm down with that for the franchise. The Wizards works

1462
01:12:41,400 --> 01:12:45,400
Speaker 1: pretty well. For Alex we got the MG units units.

1463
01:12:46,320 --> 01:12:49,120
Speaker 1: That's pretty sick. It's pretty good. I don't really have

1464
01:12:49,160 --> 01:12:51,080
Speaker 1: one from my what are what are the co followers?

1465
01:12:51,080 --> 01:12:57,240
Speaker 1: But no, the cohorts, No, the aco lights, the lights,

1466
01:12:57,360 --> 01:13:00,000
Speaker 1: those are strong. These are strong considerations. Adam Rao, who

1467
01:13:00,000 --> 01:13:02,160
Speaker 1: I forgot to mention it originally was the rank and file.

1468
01:13:02,320 --> 01:13:05,000
Speaker 1: It makes sense. It's pretty good. But I will also

1469
01:13:05,040 --> 01:13:09,760
Speaker 1: anti daily DAP. The NFL media bathroom worth worth an

1470
01:13:09,760 --> 01:13:12,679
Speaker 1: anti DAP. What is going on with the bat There's

1471
01:13:12,720 --> 01:13:15,640
Speaker 1: one sink in the NFL media bathroom that just refuses

1472
01:13:15,640 --> 01:13:18,880
Speaker 1: to work. It is the laziest sink in all so

1473
01:13:20,200 --> 01:13:22,880
Speaker 1: every every couple of weeks it seems to be broken down,

1474
01:13:23,120 --> 01:13:26,920
Speaker 1: and there's always a sign that says sink temporarily out

1475
01:13:26,920 --> 01:13:28,320
Speaker 1: of order. And I want to just take a pen

1476
01:13:28,400 --> 01:13:32,080
Speaker 1: and cross out the temporarily and just say always, how

1477
01:13:32,120 --> 01:13:35,800
Speaker 1: about they should put a sign that says sink temporarily

1478
01:13:35,880 --> 01:13:38,600
Speaker 1: in order. By the way, I have gone to that

1479
01:13:38,640 --> 01:13:41,200
Speaker 1: sinc an embarrassing amount of times to be like, oyeah,

1480
01:13:41,200 --> 01:13:43,640
Speaker 1: that's what it doesn't work, it is. It is so

1481
01:13:43,800 --> 01:13:47,320
Speaker 1: bad the bathroom situation. I'm not exactly sure what's going

1482
01:13:47,360 --> 01:13:52,880
Speaker 1: on there. The funniest thing too, they spent legitimately like

1483
01:13:53,040 --> 01:13:55,840
Speaker 1: four or five months redoing this thing too. We had

1484
01:13:55,920 --> 01:13:57,640
Speaker 1: always like it sounds such a first world problem. We

1485
01:13:57,640 --> 01:13:59,320
Speaker 1: always had to like trek upstairs if we had to

1486
01:13:59,320 --> 01:14:00,800
Speaker 1: go to the bathroom stuf. But we're like, man, this

1487
01:14:00,880 --> 01:14:02,599
Speaker 1: is gonna be great. They spent they spent so much

1488
01:14:02,640 --> 01:14:06,040
Speaker 1: time on this bathroom. It's awesome. Nope, no, no, not

1489
01:14:06,080 --> 01:14:08,439
Speaker 1: the case. By the way, when they were remodeling the

1490
01:14:08,520 --> 01:14:10,400
Speaker 1: sink and we had to try, we called it more door.

1491
01:14:10,760 --> 01:14:12,000
Speaker 1: We had to go into that vat climb up the

1492
01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:15,720
Speaker 1: mountain monom. Uh. The thing is, but two PM, when

1493
01:14:15,720 --> 01:14:18,800
Speaker 1: the entire NFL media smelled like mountain dooms. It was

1494
01:14:19,800 --> 01:14:22,439
Speaker 1: uh not pleasant, not pleasant place. Uh. And what a

1495
01:14:22,439 --> 01:14:25,400
Speaker 1: way to end the podcast. I was gonna say, this

1496
01:14:25,439 --> 01:14:29,880
Speaker 1: is what It's not poetry at least, So there you

1497
01:14:29,960 --> 01:14:33,719
Speaker 1: go uh for the wisket from Wisconsin for the franchise MGM.

1498
01:14:33,760 --> 01:14:37,559
Speaker 1: I got Marcus Grant for the wide receiver prognosticator. Matt Harmon.

1499
01:14:37,600 --> 01:14:43,160
Speaker 1: I'm James Scott. We're out.
