Speaker 1: Fantasy Freestyle right here on the Fantasy Sports Network. We
Speaker 1: got a big show for you. After the NFL Draft.
Speaker 1: We are here to break it all down. Told you
Speaker 1: you know kind of who lost their jobs? Who is
Speaker 1: in prime position to help your fantasy team coming up
Speaker 1: this year. We're also going to give you my two
Speaker 1: thousand and eighteen Kentucky Derby preview. This is something listen.
Speaker 1: If you're part of the Stats over Beat Cipher and
Speaker 1: have been for a while, you know that last year
Speaker 1: I called the Kentucky Derby winner cold, I called the
Speaker 1: Preakness winner cold. I called the Belmont winner cold. Okay,
Speaker 1: So now that we are into the Triple Crown again,
Speaker 1: I gotta give you my take on the first Saturday
Speaker 1: in May in Churchill Downs. We'll be doing that a
Speaker 1: little bit later on in the show as well. We
Speaker 1: are also going to be joined by my man, Corey Sully.
Speaker 1: He is an honorary member of the Stats Overbeat Cipher,
Speaker 1: coming in once again representing d k MS in their
Speaker 1: collaboration with the Fantasy Sports Network as we are helping
Speaker 1: the fight against blood cancer. We're gonna talk to Corey.
Speaker 1: We're gonna chop it up a little bit about how
Speaker 1: his team did in the draft, uh as well, which
Speaker 1: brings me to our poll question. Okay, tonight on the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Freestyle, you can always check me out follow me
Speaker 1: at Spitting Speeds on Twitter The poll question tonight is
Speaker 1: very simple. Are you happy with what your team did
Speaker 1: in the NFL Draft last week? Okay, everybody had a
Speaker 1: chance to make their team better. Are you happy by
Speaker 1: what your team did? Is it? Yes, let's get going.
Speaker 1: Are you excited now about any some new weapons your
Speaker 1: team may have for the season? Is it? You know?
Speaker 1: Only time will tell, you know, kind of wait and see,
Speaker 1: you see where the chips fall, see how some of
Speaker 1: these players developed. Or are you upset saying nah, we
Speaker 1: defecated the mattress. You can find me on Twitter at
Speaker 1: spitting Speeds. Be part of the poll. Judgment by the
Speaker 1: poll from last week. A lot of you guys watched
Speaker 1: the NFL Draft, all right, you know, said you're gonna
Speaker 1: watch it all weekend, said you watched just round one.
Speaker 1: So a lot of people were out there watching. We've
Speaker 1: got news and notes to get into from the NFL
Speaker 1: right before I get into some of my you know,
Speaker 1: analysis and recap of the NFL Draft. And it's tan
Speaker 1: gentle right because there are some players that are out
Speaker 1: there that we're waiting for after the draft and now
Speaker 1: see where they may be best served. For example, at
Speaker 1: the running back position, there are reports that there are
Speaker 1: eight teams in on c. J. Anderson. Okay, remember he
Speaker 1: was cut by the Broncos. He is going to find
Speaker 1: a new job pretty quickly. Is c J. Anderson the
Speaker 1: best running back still on the market along with a
Speaker 1: guy like DeMarco Murray. Keep an eye on those two names,
Speaker 1: c J. Anderson and DeMarco Murray if your team struck
Speaker 1: out at running back in the draft. On the same page,
Speaker 1: we talked about the wide receiver position. Going into the draft,
Speaker 1: it was all about Dez Bryant. Where would he sign?
Speaker 1: There are now reports that he actually turned down a
Speaker 1: multi year deal with the Baltimore Ravens and instead wants
Speaker 1: a one year kind of prove it deal. For Dez
Speaker 1: Bryan we'll see if he has anything that he can
Speaker 1: still prove coming up in this season. He along with
Speaker 1: in my opinion, Jeremy Macklin, are probably the two wide
Speaker 1: receivers that are still out there um that could help
Speaker 1: a fantasy team, could help their team, and that's what happens.
Speaker 1: You know, after the draft, you gotta keep an eye
Speaker 1: on these guys because now you know, now that the
Speaker 1: music has stopped, they will be finding a chair as well.
Speaker 1: But let's get into it here, Okay, spitting speeds on
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Freestyle. There's a lot of things about this
Speaker 1: draft that I told you a long time ago. Okay.
Speaker 1: First of all, shout out to my boys, Corey Parsons,
Speaker 1: Emery Hunt, Mike blew It, Andy Singleton who came through
Speaker 1: representing fan tracks. We had Jake Celey on Skype. We
Speaker 1: had Craig Carton joined us from a live draft party.
Speaker 1: We had Gabe Mori and see come on down to
Speaker 1: break down the Buffalo Bill's picks here in the Fantasy
Speaker 1: Sports Network live draft coverage. But yo, I helped you
Speaker 1: make some cash when it comes to the NFL draft.
Speaker 1: The overrunderroun quarterbacks before and a half, I said, Lamar
Speaker 1: would also go take the over, ching you got paid
Speaker 1: if you listen to speeds there, I said, the over
Speaker 1: on the running back. So also a lot of people
Speaker 1: were down on the rest of the running black class
Speaker 1: saying that there was only gonna be one. I said,
Speaker 1: take the over on one and a half. Ching your
Speaker 1: boys speeds helps you win that cash. Okay. There were
Speaker 1: three running backs taken, uh Sony Michelle as well, Richard
Speaker 1: Penny as well. We'll get into him a little bit
Speaker 1: later on. And also listen, if I haven't been talking
Speaker 1: about it for one day, then I haven't been talking
Speaker 1: about it for eighteen months. I said hashtag sucked for Sam.
Speaker 1: I told you right here, sitting at this desk, that
Speaker 1: the New York Jets would draft Sam Donald with their
Speaker 1: first pick in the two thousand eighteen draft. I said
Speaker 1: that about a year and a half ago. Stats over
Speaker 1: beat Cipher. You know what it is. But first of all,
Speaker 1: you know I could just say that I do all this.
Speaker 1: I want to play a clip my got Mike Florio's
Speaker 1: down there in the fantasy pit of misery. Last week
Speaker 1: when I gave you my running back preview, there was
Speaker 1: a running back that I was higher on than most,
Speaker 1: and I actually said he was the best back um
Speaker 1: right behind Sae Kwon Barkley. I said, this was the
Speaker 1: number two back. I expected him to come off the
Speaker 1: board a lot earlier than others. And what do you
Speaker 1: know the number two running back off the board in
Speaker 1: the two eighteen NFL draft. If you listen to speeds
Speaker 1: and spitting statistician, you would have known who it was.
Speaker 1: It was a Shard Penny. Trust me, check the videotape.
Speaker 1: Check the audio tape. That's what we're gonna do right now, Hey, Florio,
Speaker 1: why don't we roll what I was talking about as
Speaker 1: related to Penny before the draft last week. And I'm
Speaker 1: gonna start with the guy that I actually like the
Speaker 1: best and most people don't. And I'm talking about my man,
Speaker 1: Richard Penny out of San Diego State. This guy is
Speaker 1: an all around back. He ran four four at the combine.
Speaker 1: This is a guy. Um, the question is can he
Speaker 1: pass protect? Right? But here's the thing that's the question
Speaker 1: about all running backs coming into the league. Pass protection
Speaker 1: is the last thing that backs making the transition from
Speaker 1: college to the NFL usually get. So if pass protection
Speaker 1: is his weakness, let's say I'm with it. This is
Speaker 1: a guy. He is a threat out of the passing game.
Speaker 1: He is a threat between the tackles. He is a
Speaker 1: threat on the edge. He has the speed to break away.
Speaker 1: So that's what I'm saying. You know, I was telling
Speaker 1: you all about Rashard Penny. I was telling you that
Speaker 1: I thought he was the best kind of overall back.
Speaker 1: And what do you know, The Seattle Seahawks now say
Speaker 1: they have faith in him as a three down back.
Speaker 1: I'm telling you right now, Richard Penny is a guy
Speaker 1: that you need to have on your fantasy team. I
Speaker 1: know they've got a bad offensive line and backs have
Speaker 1: not been able to do it, but they see this
Speaker 1: guy as a three down back in Seattle. I think
Speaker 1: he's gonna be someone that will return value for you
Speaker 1: in fantasy leagues. Let's talk about this running back position. Okay,
Speaker 1: let's go a little bit deeper into the running back
Speaker 1: position to tell you who's kind of stock went up,
Speaker 1: whose stock went down? And I'm gonna start to be honest.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna start with non rookies. There are some two
Speaker 1: running backs that I think their stock really went up
Speaker 1: because their team did not address the running back position
Speaker 1: in any significant way. The first guy I think his
Speaker 1: stock is up is Beast Mode Marshawn Lynch. Listen when
Speaker 1: Gruden sane, you know, his big press conference, they were
Speaker 1: talking about they didn't really know what was going to
Speaker 1: be the case with Marshawn Lynch, right. What have they
Speaker 1: done since then? They bring in Doug Martin, not a
Speaker 1: real threat. They don't bring in any running back threats
Speaker 1: via the draft. This job is now Beast Modes he
Speaker 1: to me, that solidifies him as an RB two in
Speaker 1: this upcoming season. Same to be said if you go
Speaker 1: down down to Houston with the Texans, Okay, Lamar Miller
Speaker 1: and Deontay Foreman coming off the injury as well, the
Speaker 1: Texans did not address the running back position. That said,
Speaker 1: I like Deontay Foreman to take a step and be
Speaker 1: a viable RB two next year as well. And those
Speaker 1: are teams that didn't even address their running back position.
Speaker 1: Teams that did. Definitely, you gotta look at these guys
Speaker 1: that now be trending into fugaze territory. For example, think
Speaker 1: about a guy like some J. P Ryan, som a
Speaker 1: J P Ryan in our nation's capital. If you can
Speaker 1: trade him in Dynasty League, do it right now. So
Speaker 1: my J. P Ryan had every opportunity as we see
Speaker 1: young babies here at Studio thirty four wave unto your
Speaker 1: boys speedes and spitting statistician uma J. P Ryan. You
Speaker 1: know he got an opportunity to take that job. You
Speaker 1: know when Chris Thompson got hurt when uh fat Rob
Speaker 1: Kelly like WHOA couldn't do it right and he defecated
Speaker 1: the mattress with it so much so that Washington goes
Speaker 1: out and gets their boy Darius GUIs in the second round. Okay,
Speaker 1: if they had more faith in p Ryan, they would
Speaker 1: not have done that. So stock down on SMA J
Speaker 1: P round. What about a guy like Carlos Hide. Okay,
Speaker 1: Carlos Hide who just gets signed to a free agent
Speaker 1: deal in Cleveland, right, and you think, oh, he's gonna
Speaker 1: be the dude, it's gonna be him, and it's gonna
Speaker 1: be Duke Johnson will no, no, no. The Cleveland Browns
Speaker 1: take what is in essence a late first round pick,
Speaker 1: you know, very early in the second round, and they
Speaker 1: go out and they get Nick Chub out of Georgia. Okay,
Speaker 1: you still have Duke Johnson as the early round back.
Speaker 1: So the question is, I mean, as the late round,
Speaker 1: late down back, right, the passing down back. Is he's
Speaker 1: gonna be that PPR stud in Cleveland? Duke Johnson will be.
Speaker 1: He was very good in that role last year. Right now,
Speaker 1: you thought Carlos Hide was gonna kind of be able
Speaker 1: to be this workhorse, a threat in the passing game,
Speaker 1: maybe with some early down work as well. Nick Chubb.
Speaker 1: If you listen to my running back preview, Nick Chubb
Speaker 1: is an early down runner, right, He's a bowling ball
Speaker 1: type and m J D type. He is going to
Speaker 1: be kind of an early down back. You don't take
Speaker 1: a guy in the second round unless you see a
Speaker 1: workload for him. So what does that mean for Carlos Hide?
Speaker 1: This is now a deeper running back by committee? I say,
Speaker 1: because of the draft, Carlos Hide fu gazy. You'll forget
Speaker 1: about him. And one more that I'll tell you about
Speaker 1: is Carson out in Seattle. I just told you about
Speaker 1: how I like with Shad Penny. All Right, they traded
Speaker 1: up to go grab this guy. He was their target.
Speaker 1: They believe in him as a three down back. I
Speaker 1: thought Carson had a chance to try to snatch that
Speaker 1: job because you didn't trust anybody else that was there.
Speaker 1: You know, Rawls is now gone. You know we don't
Speaker 1: trust fat Eddie Lacey, but no, they don't trust Carson either.
Speaker 1: Those are guys stocked down. Okay. I told you about
Speaker 1: beast Mode, I told you about forming here and we
Speaker 1: look at the rookies. Here are the guys that I think.
Speaker 1: I mean, we know about Sae Kwon Barkley, right, but
Speaker 1: it's not a guy like Nick Chubb who's in that
Speaker 1: committee in Cleveland. It's not a guy like Sony Michelle
Speaker 1: who's in New England, and you know about running back,
Speaker 1: you know Russian roulette when it comes to fantasy. So
Speaker 1: it's not them. Here are guys that I like. I
Speaker 1: really like what wound up for Ronald Jones. Ronald Jones
Speaker 1: winds up in Tampa with their second round pick. The
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay running game was nothing to write home about
Speaker 1: last year. Okay, you had Pop Quiz joc Quiz Rodgers
Speaker 1: who couldn't stand the test. You had the aging Doug Martin,
Speaker 1: you had you know Barber that they tried a little bit,
Speaker 1: it did not work out. Chris Simms is the passing
Speaker 1: down back this you know. Ronald Jones steps in there
Speaker 1: and is right now the RB one, the early down back,
Speaker 1: the guy that could lead this team in rushing. So
Speaker 1: he goes right into a prize position. You know about
Speaker 1: my guy Richard Penny that I've been on, the other
Speaker 1: guy I really do like. Okay, let's go to Denver
Speaker 1: Royce Freeman. I think Royce Freeman is a very interesting
Speaker 1: running back to keep an eye on. Remember they have
Speaker 1: Davante Booker right there again as a passing down back.
Speaker 1: You're gonna have Royce Freeman there. I think he is listened.
Speaker 1: This is a guy who had some injury concerns, but
Speaker 1: is a load to carry. Fits that one cut and
Speaker 1: ghost scheme that they run in Denver and uh, I
Speaker 1: think he could be in line for an interesting workload.
Speaker 1: Those are some running backs that I think that are
Speaker 1: not named Sae Kwon Barkley that will really do you
Speaker 1: work and you need to start to keep your eye
Speaker 1: on them. Ronald Jones, Shard Penny, and Royce Freeman, in
Speaker 1: my opinion. Let's talk a little bit also about how
Speaker 1: it relates to the quarterback position. Okay, at the quarterback position,
Speaker 1: it's so hard, right because honestly, fantasy sports is about
Speaker 1: skill but also opportunity, Right, So you gotta read not
Speaker 1: only who's the best quarterback out there, but who's gonna
Speaker 1: have an opportunity to actually play in two thousand eighteens. So,
Speaker 1: for example, Baker Mayfield goes No. One overall. If you
Speaker 1: listen to the Status over Beat s ife, if you
Speaker 1: listen to the Fantasy Freestyle, if you know about the
Speaker 1: stable genius in the vocal minority, you know that I
Speaker 1: love Cleveland's current quarterback one t mobile Tyrod Taylor, with
Speaker 1: the lowest inner perception rate in NFL history. Okay, this
Speaker 1: is a guy who takes care of the ball. This
Speaker 1: is a guy who now has Josh Gordon and Jarvis
Speaker 1: Landry and David and Joeku and Corey Coleman and all
Speaker 1: these running backs were talking about, I don't think Baker
Speaker 1: Mayfield sees the field this year. Okay, So maybe you
Speaker 1: want to have him in a dynasty setting. I understand
Speaker 1: that in a keeper setting, sure, but Tyrod Taylor can
Speaker 1: do work with this offense. I don't think Tyrod is
Speaker 1: relinquishing the job this year. So that's what I'm telling you.
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield would not be anywhere close in a redraft
Speaker 1: lets any quarterback that I would want. I don't think
Speaker 1: he's gonna see the field early on. The guy who's
Speaker 1: gonna see the field first, in my opinion, is gonna
Speaker 1: be Josh Rosen down there in Arizona. Okay, do I
Speaker 1: think remember, I think he's gonna get concussed. I don't
Speaker 1: think he's presented well since the draft either. Okay, talking
Speaker 1: about um, you know how he was piste off a
Speaker 1: lot of fake bravado, okay, saying the things that I
Speaker 1: think people want him to say, you know, try and
Speaker 1: always give the textbook answer. I don't like that. But
Speaker 1: you know what else, I don't like the health prospects
Speaker 1: of Sam Bradford, who is who is the quarterback in
Speaker 1: front of him? As we know, Bradford will get bing
Speaker 1: dinged up and Josh Rosen will get some starts. I
Speaker 1: think Rosen gets starts early on. Another guy I'll tell
Speaker 1: you about is Sam Donald. Okay, you gotta love what
Speaker 1: happened for the j E. T S Jets, Jets Jets.
Speaker 1: As you know, I am a Jets fan. I've been
Speaker 1: telling you about this for a year and a half.
Speaker 1: And shout out to my guys out there and roto
Speaker 1: rohdo where you know my bench better than your starters,
Speaker 1: Kenneth Cashman represent but road Away they're coming out with
Speaker 1: road Awear Classic right now, okay, and they're doing all
Speaker 1: sorts of good shirts. My man, if Mike Florio is
Speaker 1: down there in the pit of misery, I don't know, Floria,
Speaker 1: if you've seen one of the hottest road Awear Classic
Speaker 1: shirts is about your Metropolitans, uh, My man said deaf
Speaker 1: tax Is and Flora's against the Lefty. That's a great shirt,
Speaker 1: but the shirt I'm interested in, as they said, it's
Speaker 1: not the same darn Oald Jets because Sam Donald is
Speaker 1: going to do work as the new face of the
Speaker 1: franchise for the Jets. I don't think he's gonna start
Speaker 1: the year, but I do think he will get starts
Speaker 1: towards the back of the year after Josh McCallan kind
Speaker 1: of teaches him everything he knows. Josh Allen is a bust,
Speaker 1: will be a bust. I don't like the offense in Buffalo.
Speaker 1: He's not like he's got weapons to throw to. You know,
Speaker 1: I'm not with Josh Allen. I'm not with what he tweeted.
Speaker 1: I'm not with his career path. I'm sorry, Gabe, I'm
Speaker 1: sorry Mikey Florio. I think for Lamar Jackson, here's the
Speaker 1: interesting part. It's gonna be in Baltimore, right. I think
Speaker 1: he's gonna get like a package. He's gonna get a
Speaker 1: package of place. He's gonna get some r p O s.
Speaker 1: He's maybe gonna get some wild card maybe gonna get
Speaker 1: some wildcat options. He might, you know, accumulate some stats
Speaker 1: for you in his rookie year. But he's not gonna
Speaker 1: be He's not gonna be um making plays and really
Speaker 1: a starter for you. The last thing I'll say on
Speaker 1: this before we had to break is don't forget about
Speaker 1: if you're playing kind of dynasty leagues. There are two
Speaker 1: teams that are definitely looking ahead. Look at the Giants. Okay,
Speaker 1: they go ahead and get Davis Webb. Last year, they
Speaker 1: double down on that in the fourth round. This year,
Speaker 1: Richmond quarterback Kyle Loletta could be a very interesting late
Speaker 1: round dynasty draft pick. And the Pittsburgh Steelers did the
Speaker 1: same thing last year with Josh Dobbs out of Tennessee.
Speaker 1: This year they do the same thing getting Mason Rudolph
Speaker 1: out of Oklahoma State. Mason read Rudolph and Kyle Loletta,
Speaker 1: I would say, are very smart gets in late rounds
Speaker 1: of dynasty formats to replace the aging Eli Manning and
Speaker 1: big Ben Roethlisberger. When we come back here in the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Freestyle, I'm gonna tell you one more story about
Speaker 1: quarterbacks as it relates to the draft, and then your boys,
Speaker 1: speeds and spitting statistician is gonna give you his two
Speaker 1: thousand and eighteen Kentucky Derby preview. We hit, we cashed
Speaker 1: last year, We're gonna do it again this year. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna tell you exactly how you can win that cash
Speaker 1: on a little sinkle the male when we come back,
Speaker 1: get your boy, Dame Martinez, Speeds, the spitting Statistician, the
Speaker 1: Stable Genius, and vocal Minority. Come on back to the

Speaker 1: Fantasy Freestyle. Right here in the Fantasy Sports Network gets
Speaker 1: your boy, Dame Martinez holding you down, just giving you
Speaker 1: a little bit of insight as it relates to the
Speaker 1: running back situation. Okay, um, I focus on the running
Speaker 1: back situation because honestly, these quarterbacks, a lot of these
Speaker 1: quarterbacks are not going to see the field. I really
Speaker 1: hope Baker Mayfield doesn't see the field because I believe
Speaker 1: in Tyrod Taylor with the Cleveland Browns this year. You know,
Speaker 1: it's really about kind of who you're behind and if
Speaker 1: you have an opportunity, you know, to to get on
Speaker 1: the field as it relates to the quarterback position. So
Speaker 1: that's why I think Josh Rosen is probably gonna be
Speaker 1: the best fantasy asset at least this year. Um, if
Speaker 1: you're in a re draft league, because you can't believe
Speaker 1: in Sam Radford clearly, right. But the last thing I'll
Speaker 1: say about Baker Mayfield before we turn our attention to
Speaker 1: another sports four legged sport. Um, Baker Mayfield goes number
Speaker 1: one overall? Right, well, there were some people listen, you know,
Speaker 1: going to the draft. Everybody said, you know, executives were split.
Speaker 1: There's some people that had Baker number one on their board.
Speaker 1: Some people had Darnald number one in their ball board.
Speaker 1: Some people had Alan, some people had Rosen. You know,
Speaker 1: we were getting reports that that Baker was actually number
Speaker 1: one on the board for six other teams. Right, so
Speaker 1: a lot of people were shocked that Baker was picked
Speaker 1: number one overall. Let me tell you something. No one
Speaker 1: was more shocked then w K and ours host Aaron
Speaker 1: gold Hammer. Okay, this is a guy. He's does a
Speaker 1: radio show down in Cleveland. Okay, And first of all,
Speaker 1: the money was moving on Baker. Remember I told you
Speaker 1: they were props. You could have made some cash on
Speaker 1: the NFL draft. Baker Mayfield started about about a month ago.
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield was a thirty three to one shot to
Speaker 1: be the number one overall pick. Could have made some
Speaker 1: cash on that, right, He goes all the way a
Speaker 1: minus five hundred favorite. But check this out. On air,
Speaker 1: Aaron Goldhammer says that he would eat poop if Baker
Speaker 1: it wasn't fact drafted number one overall. Okay, and there
Speaker 1: you go. There you have it. He's drafted number one.
Speaker 1: He's saying he's gonna hold up to his end of
Speaker 1: the bargain, although we have not seen evidence of this
Speaker 1: on social media. So Aaron Goldhammer, Stats over Beat Cipher
Speaker 1: is waiting for the proof that you are a man
Speaker 1: of your word. I know my man, Frank Stanfel is
Speaker 1: a man of his word. Y'all saw him pay off
Speaker 1: his bet to me, probably on Twitter. Okay, um, Aaron Goldhammer,
Speaker 1: we need proof, We need evidence that you did, in
Speaker 1: fact be a man of your word. Now that Baker
Speaker 1: Mayfield was number one overall, you need to eat a
Speaker 1: little poop, my friend. All right, So let's see that
Speaker 1: on social media because if not, Stats over Beat Cipher
Speaker 1: will come in after you. Okay, real quick. I'll tell
Speaker 1: you about the tight ends as well. But the hard
Speaker 1: part and with wide receiver and the tight end position
Speaker 1: is rookies rarely have a big time impact in their
Speaker 1: rookie season. I tell you all the time. The tight
Speaker 1: end position you need to learn a whole new route
Speaker 1: tree and a new blocking scheme. Wide receivers. I mean
Speaker 1: last year you had the John Ross, the Mike Williams,
Speaker 1: the Corey Davis even right, and they were all highly
Speaker 1: touted and they didn't pop off in their first year. Right,
Speaker 1: So do we really think like maybe Calvin Ridley will
Speaker 1: you know, as an over the top threat. He's got
Speaker 1: his boy, Julio Jones. He's got Steve sarkaesian there in Atlanta.
Speaker 1: Maybe could it be a guy like Kirk out there
Speaker 1: in Arizona now out of Texas, A and m he's
Speaker 1: gonna be he's good in space. Right, Um, they lost
Speaker 1: John Smokey John Brown. That could be an option Carolina
Speaker 1: finally getting a receiver to try to take the Steve
Speaker 1: Smith junior role in DJ More. Okay, this is a
Speaker 1: you know in Carolina they got a lot of big
Speaker 1: body wide receivers, right, whether it be when they had
Speaker 1: Benjamin now with Funcious, with Olsen right there looking to
Speaker 1: get a little bit twitchier, a little bit more agile.
Speaker 1: You saw that last year with Samuel and CMC. They
Speaker 1: do it again early in the draft this year with
Speaker 1: d J. Moore. So listen, some of these guys, whether
Speaker 1: it's Goosecky in in Miami now, whether it's Dallas Goddard
Speaker 1: and Philly, he's gonna behind zach Ertz I'm not big
Speaker 1: on any of these guys. I'm waiting to see with
Speaker 1: these guys. I'll take a second year tight end though.
Speaker 1: Give me some Ricky Seals Jones, give me some O. J. Howard,
Speaker 1: give me some Evan Ingram. You know, I'll take that.
Speaker 1: I'll take the second year wide receiver. But I'm not
Speaker 1: on these rookie past catchers. Let's turn your attention right now,
Speaker 1: because I was telling you guys about it before. Listen,
Speaker 1: this is really when the spring really starts to pop off. Okay.
Speaker 1: It is the first Saturday in May, right, and we
Speaker 1: are going to get it going with the Triple Crown.
Speaker 1: We got the Kentucky Derby going on. Okay, so listen,
Speaker 1: anywhere where you could win a little bit of cash.
Speaker 1: You know, Speeds, the spitting statistician, you know, the stats
Speaker 1: over beat Cipher is going to be all over it.
Speaker 1: And you know, just to prove this, Okay, last year,
Speaker 1: I was all over the Triple Crown races. Florial down
Speaker 1: there in the fantasy pit of misery. Do me a
Speaker 1: favor and let the people know how in these exact
Speaker 1: segments last year, how I gave them out winners to
Speaker 1: win that cash showing what I did last year for
Speaker 1: the people, Todd Pletcher. And then I see that one
Speaker 1: of my jockeys, especially here in New York, Johnny V
Speaker 1: Johnny Velasquez, is on the five horse, always dreaming. He's
Speaker 1: going off at five to one. Right now, he's like
Speaker 1: a co second choice. Um, how do you feel if
Speaker 1: I wanted to throw a couple of shekels on him?
Speaker 1: Out of the newcomers. Though, out of the newcomers, I like,
Speaker 1: check out two horses. There's two horses that I think
Speaker 1: may have a chance, and I like the odds that
Speaker 1: they have. First the number two horse, Cloud Computing. He's
Speaker 1: going off at fourteen to one. This is a horse
Speaker 1: that only had a couple of races. And Floria figure,
Speaker 1: I'm giving him winners. I'm giving him winner enough points
Speaker 1: to qualify Florio. I'm giving him winners. Florio, are you
Speaker 1: if you're down there? If you're down there, Florio, are you?
Speaker 1: Are you with me? We're gonna get Danny and Dannie
Speaker 1: olt to win the building. Check this out? Check this out.
Speaker 1: So what this means is I gave him the Kentucky
Speaker 1: Derby winner at five to one last year. Right, So
Speaker 1: let's say Let's say you got like, how much money
Speaker 1: you want to bet? How much money you want to bet? Danny,
Speaker 1: you want to be like a hundred bucks. I was
Speaker 1: gonna say, Akay, let's say you got twenty bucks, right,
Speaker 1: you you listen to Speeds this time last year, you
Speaker 1: turned your twenty into a hundred and twenty with you're
Speaker 1: always dreaming. Pick. Then let's say you decided to let
Speaker 1: it ride. Right, you take your hundred twenty dollars and
Speaker 1: you listen to Speeds again going into the Preakness. Right
Speaker 1: when he gives you cloud Computing at fourteen to one
Speaker 1: and you put your one twenty that you just won
Speaker 1: on cloud Computing at fourteen to one. We're talking about
Speaker 1: taking your twenty dollars and your boys Speeds turned it
Speaker 1: into fifteen hundred for you, Danny. Is this the kind
Speaker 1: of thing you'd be interested in? All right? So you
Speaker 1: need to tune in right now. You need to keep
Speaker 1: it locked. You need to give everybody that's in the
Speaker 1: chatting room. Lance Davis, if you out there, strong Style,
Speaker 1: if you're out there, my homegirl, Jilly Dilley, if you
Speaker 1: out there, I'm about to make you this cash. Okay,
Speaker 1: So here's the deal. The favorite has one in um
Speaker 1: like in the Kentucky Derby, like four or five years
Speaker 1: in a row. I'm off that we are not betting
Speaker 1: the favorite. You know, speeds, we fade the public, especially
Speaker 1: in a year where there is no dominant horse. Okay,
Speaker 1: casual horse fans remember names like American Pharaoh, remember names
Speaker 1: like California Chrome. There are no horses at that level.
Speaker 1: There are no super horses this year. This is a
Speaker 1: wide open field of twenty horses, okay. So I'm not
Speaker 1: giving you any three to one favorite. I'm not talking
Speaker 1: about Justified the three to one favorite. Don't get me wrong,
Speaker 1: he's undefeated. Bob Bafford is a great trainer. Understand this.
Speaker 1: He's had a huge rise. He's only raised in like
Speaker 1: three races. Okay, I don't know that he's ready to
Speaker 1: step up in class, step up in length, combat twenty
Speaker 1: nineteen other horses and take down the run for the roses. Okay.
Speaker 1: And why in a field of twenty horses, am I
Speaker 1: gonna bet the three to one favorite. I ain't gonna
Speaker 1: make any money that way. And you know, the spitting
Speaker 1: statistician is about winning that cash. So here's what I'm
Speaker 1: talking about You heard me Um last year say how
Speaker 1: much I love the Todd Pletcher horses. Right well, Pletcher
Speaker 1: is back again this year. He has a number of
Speaker 1: horses in the race, but there are two that I like. Okay, first,
Speaker 1: we're gonna start with my horse, My my kind of
Speaker 1: off the radar value pick horse, in my opinion, the
Speaker 1: five horse, Audible. He's going off at eight to one
Speaker 1: right now. Javier Cathalana was on the mount. This horse
Speaker 1: is a closer, which I like. I'm gonna be giving
Speaker 1: you closers because there is speed in this race. There's
Speaker 1: twenty horses, so I like the horses that are not
Speaker 1: gonna have to be in that traffic are gonna fade
Speaker 1: back and then make their run towards the end, down
Speaker 1: the stretch they come. I like Audible, all right. Audible
Speaker 1: is the five horse. I like him. He has improved
Speaker 1: his speed, his buyer number every race over his last
Speaker 1: you know, over his last four I believe um he's
Speaker 1: kind of passed the eye test. And give me a
Speaker 1: Pletcher horse every day and twice un sinkle Demo. I
Speaker 1: like five Audible at eight to one. His other horse
Speaker 1: that I like, I like the six horse Magna Moon
Speaker 1: going off at six to one. That's another Plector horse.
Speaker 1: I'm with that. But here, if you really want to
Speaker 1: make some cash, let me give you my long shot
Speaker 1: pick right now. I'm gonna give you my long shot
Speaker 1: pick right now. If you're trying to win some money
Speaker 1: on sinkle the miles so you can, you know, buy
Speaker 1: an extra you know, Corona or something like that, Modelo Dults,
Speaker 1: Eck's Mitchellatta a little more, Agave a little more, you know, mescal,
Speaker 1: whatever the case. Maybe here's what you need to do.
Speaker 1: You need to take a very good look at the
Speaker 1: ten horse, My boy Jack. My boy Jack is going
Speaker 1: off at thirty to one right now. Okay, this is
Speaker 1: a long shot, okay, but you need to put him
Speaker 1: in your exotics, in his in your trifectas, in your superfectives,
Speaker 1: or maybe a little wind place show bet on the
Speaker 1: ten horse, my boy Jack. I like this. Can Desormo
Speaker 1: is on the mount. His brother is the trainer of
Speaker 1: this horse, the Desormo. This is a long standing horse
Speaker 1: racing family. I like it. They many reports out there
Speaker 1: have My way Jack as the best quote unquote stone
Speaker 1: cold closer in this race. It is going to be
Speaker 1: my boy Jack coming hard on the end down the stretch,
Speaker 1: and that's what I like in this race. This race
Speaker 1: has a lot of pace in it. It's a lot
Speaker 1: of speedbirds that are gonna go out there and maybe
Speaker 1: tire out some of these horses. I like the closers
Speaker 1: going late, especially at a distance that a lot of
Speaker 1: these horses have not been at before. So give me
Speaker 1: my boy Jack to hit the board and the winn't
Speaker 1: play show. He's got to be in your trifectors. He's
Speaker 1: got to be in your super fectors. I like, that's
Speaker 1: my long shot, my boy Jack at thirty to one.
Speaker 1: I gave you the pleter horses, Magna Moon, ats Uh
Speaker 1: at six to one, the sixteen horse Audible. Right now
Speaker 1: at eight to one, the five horse, the other guy,
Speaker 1: I like, give me the eleven horse, bull Due. He's
Speaker 1: going off at eight to one right now. Victor Espinosa
Speaker 1: is riding this horse, and that's why I like him.
Speaker 1: Espinosa was on California Chrome in two thousand and fourteen.
Speaker 1: He was on American Farrell in two thousand and fifteen.
Speaker 1: This horse finished second in his last race in the
Speaker 1: Santa Anita Derby, finished just behind the favorite just justify. Okay,
Speaker 1: So I think if he puts on a better race,
Speaker 1: he can be out there. Those are the horses I like.
Speaker 1: Let me put him to you for for you in order.
Speaker 1: I like the winner of this race to be audible.
Speaker 1: The five horse, followed by the sixteen horse, Magna Moon.
Speaker 1: I'm on pletcher all over the place with Luis Sayas
Speaker 1: on the mount. Then give me my boy Jack the
Speaker 1: ten horse to finish in the show spot. You play
Speaker 1: to show the race, alright. If that thirty two one
Speaker 1: hits the board at all, just remember your boy spitting
Speaker 1: speeds gave you that tip, and then round it out.
Speaker 1: Give me the eleven horse, Bulldouro. I think he will finish,
Speaker 1: uh in your superfective is okay? Coming off his uh
Speaker 1: sire Matvia Dioro and a little Usain bolt in there
Speaker 1: as well. Okay, too bad, Gronks horse is not in
Speaker 1: there anymore. It's okay. Uh. You know, they care about
Speaker 1: horse safety even more than the NFL cares about player safety.
Speaker 1: But there you have it, Danny, I'm telling you right now,
Speaker 1: in this in this field, where there's gonna be twenty
Speaker 1: horses and there's gonna be some speed, these guys empty
Speaker 1: out all their energy early and then it's gonna be
Speaker 1: a closer coming off the pace later on in the
Speaker 1: race that's gonna take down the Kentucky Derby at about
Speaker 1: oh six fifty five on Saturday evening. Danny, how do
Speaker 1: you feel about that? I mean, I feel good about it. Listen,
Speaker 1: last year, if you started with twenty dollars, you would
Speaker 1: have had fifteen hundred in two weeks. Man, So you
Speaker 1: gotta bet these horses, Danny. You gotta bet Audible to win.
Speaker 1: You gotta bet maybe Magna Moon to win. Okay, but
Speaker 1: don't sleep on my boy Jack the long shot right
Speaker 1: now at thirty to one deep closer been getting better
Speaker 1: in his races. One the Lexington Steaks. Those in names
Speaker 1: you need to know on Saturday, Danny, sounds good to me.
Speaker 1: All right, fair enough, so check this out. Here's my
Speaker 1: question for you, Danny. We got a couple of minutes

Speaker 1: with you every where you go, re style right here
Speaker 1: on the Fantasy Sports Network at your boy. Dane Martinez
Speaker 1: beeds spitting statistician, holding it down on a Tuesday. Like
Speaker 1: I said, we talked a little bit about the running
Speaker 1: backs after the NFL Draft. Who's in a good path
Speaker 1: two touches to aries. We also talked a little bit
Speaker 1: about the Kentucky Derby. You know, I'm all over the
Speaker 1: pletcher horses and the deep closers. I gave you my
Speaker 1: long shot right now. Uh you know, remember so that
Speaker 1: when I'm here next Tuesday, you could be like, oh
Speaker 1: my god, Dane, you helped me win that cash. But
Speaker 1: enough about horse racing and enough about the NFL Draft.
Speaker 1: From now at this point. I gotta give you some
Speaker 1: news and notes real quick about baseball, and then we're
Speaker 1: gonna bring in our d k MS hero for the week. Okay,
Speaker 1: Corey Sully's gonna join us in a minute. What I
Speaker 1: do have to tell you real quick about in Major
Speaker 1: League Baseball? The Rockies have placed DJ Lemayhew on the
Speaker 1: d sable list. He went down with hammy injury. Okay,
Speaker 1: but they are welcoming back Carlos Gonzalez, right, and he
Speaker 1: coming back from a hammy injury. A lot of hamstring
Speaker 1: injuries early in the season. We had our guy Thomas
Speaker 1: Lowe last year telling us that you should expect that
Speaker 1: hamstring injuries early in the season because these guys aren't
Speaker 1: really in playing shape. Okay, this happened last year early
Speaker 1: in the season. It is happening again, especially in Colorado.
Speaker 1: Not to be outdone here in New York. Not my Ennis,
Speaker 1: not our Ennis, Yo n s Sesspitice. It looks like
Speaker 1: he's gonna miss this entire series for the Mets because
Speaker 1: of that thumb injury. There. Oh he's playing, Oh he's
Speaker 1: The thumb is okay, Florio says, the thumb is okay.
Speaker 1: He was going to potentially miss a few games, but
Speaker 1: you know, maybe he barbecued another pig and now he's okay.
Speaker 1: So you gotta have, you know, the healing powers of
Speaker 1: U N. S Cespedice. Here's someone who I know is
Speaker 1: not okay though, Florio, and that's Marcus Tims. Marcus Tims
Speaker 1: with that thumb ligament, he's likely going to be out
Speaker 1: for a six to eight weeks. Think about he's who's
Speaker 1: aguilar as a potential replacement there in Milwaukee. And the
Speaker 1: last thing I will say, if you have some pictures
Speaker 1: on the way back, Madison bum Gardener is among them
Speaker 1: with that finger injury. He helps to be clear to
Speaker 1: throw this week and he should be on his timetable.
Speaker 1: They're saying he could come back when he's eligible from
Speaker 1: that long stint on the d L in late May
Speaker 1: or early June. So keep an eye on those guys.
Speaker 1: But I digress. We got to get right now with
Speaker 1: our guest Corey Sully. Corey is here. He is UM
Speaker 1: you know, part of the UM crew with dk MS,
Speaker 1: really helping the fight against blood cancer. He is an
Speaker 1: oncology account specialist with hermatology and fiser. We have Corey
Speaker 1: Sully joining fantasy freestyle right now, Corey, how you doing?
Speaker 1: I'm doing great, Dane appreciate having me on the seat
Speaker 1: and then appreciate the opportunity absolutely, absolutely, So let's get
Speaker 1: into this because you know, the Fantasy Sports Network has
Speaker 1: been working with d k MS for a while to
Speaker 1: help the fight against blood cancer. And I really want
Speaker 1: to know Corey as someone who has done this process. Right,
Speaker 1: you registered, you swabbed your cheeks, you sent it out.
Speaker 1: How how hard is this to do? I've been trying
Speaker 1: to tell people they need to do this. This is
Speaker 1: not the you know, fantasy sports world, this is real life.
Speaker 1: How easy is it to do and potentially help someone out?
Speaker 1: You know, Dan is very easy. I mean I was
Speaker 1: swabbed at a cross tournament. I was one of twenty
Speaker 1: four uh funny for people that were swabbed, So it
Speaker 1: was very easy. See, but you really have to think
Speaker 1: it through. You know, you say I want to get
Speaker 1: swab but you really have to follow through on it
Speaker 1: and to look at your heart and say, you know,
Speaker 1: am I willing to save someone's life? You know, if
Speaker 1: I'm called, am I willing to do this? And and
Speaker 1: when I swabbed, I knew that if when I was
Speaker 1: called that, I was going to go ahead and do it.
Speaker 1: And I tell you the real issue right now is
Speaker 1: trying to get more minorities on the on the registry.
Speaker 1: Right now, only six percent, for example, African Americans are
Speaker 1: on the registry, So there's a big push and the
Speaker 1: d k MS hasn't looked in need to. I could
Speaker 1: be one of their ambassadors to educate and then to
Speaker 1: be encouraged folks to get on the registry, you know,
Speaker 1: to have the same opportunity I had to save somebody's life.
Speaker 1: But I hear you. I mean, Corey, you know, I
Speaker 1: love the way you frame it, right. You gotta look
Speaker 1: inside and see are you Are you open and willing
Speaker 1: to saving someone's life? You know? And I love that
Speaker 1: framing because, honestly, who would say no to something like that? Corey?
Speaker 1: You know when you said you gotta look inside, I'm
Speaker 1: really glad the step you took to go ahead and
Speaker 1: did it. You said you did it out of lacrosse game.
Speaker 1: It was really that easy. Han. Then you sent it
Speaker 1: in and let me ask you something, Corey, have you
Speaker 1: matched yet with someone? Yes? I did. I matched last
Speaker 1: year Dane am I and my year anniversary was on
Speaker 1: April twenty six, and too to my surprise, I was
Speaker 1: a perfect match because what they do they do a
Speaker 1: tissue typing test and for each type, they have ten
Speaker 1: types and each type has up the four thousand variations
Speaker 1: and I was a perfect match. So less than one
Speaker 1: percent of patients match I guided as a perfect match.
Speaker 1: So that even excited me more to know that I
Speaker 1: did it. And then I was a perfect match for
Speaker 1: a fourty year old male who God knows, probably as
Speaker 1: a family kid. I don't know that, hope they'll find out.
Speaker 1: But um, that was the the huge reward for me,
Speaker 1: just the thrill I had doing it and just willing
Speaker 1: to do it again if I'm called upon. Right, So
Speaker 1: tell me a little bit. And and we're here with
Speaker 1: Corey Sully here on the to see Free Style on
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Sports Network. Like, how do you get notified
Speaker 1: Corey that you have in fact match, because listen, you're
Speaker 1: doing this and kind of if you're gonna go through
Speaker 1: this step right you are, you're hoping you get match
Speaker 1: with someone. You're hoping you have that opportunity, like you said,
Speaker 1: to go ahead and really help someone out and save
Speaker 1: a life. So take me back, like, does it come
Speaker 1: by mail? Did you get an email when you kind
Speaker 1: of received the information the notification that you had in
Speaker 1: fact match and you will be able to kind of
Speaker 1: in essence follow through in your support in the fight
Speaker 1: against blood cancer. Like what was that like? Take me
Speaker 1: back to that time. I tell you it was last
Speaker 1: of February and I received an email and I said,
Speaker 1: who is DK mess? They met me at a lacross tournament.
Speaker 1: When was this? It was in hum and Us. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: I was tetking myself across term. They swap me, so
Speaker 1: they emailed me and from that point forward, I agreed
Speaker 1: to do a blood test. They did another confirmatory blood
Speaker 1: test and everything looked great. And then I went down
Speaker 1: to Houston, down to India Anderson area and they did
Speaker 1: an additional testing with my blood. They did a physical
Speaker 1: and everything was to the parade to go. So within
Speaker 1: sixty days, I donated on April. But for me, just
Speaker 1: overwhelming amount of emotion that went through me when I did.
Speaker 1: I stood because very few times in people's lives do
Speaker 1: you have an opportunity to truly save somebody's life and
Speaker 1: to do it unselfishly. Now, as I meant you look
Speaker 1: inside and you say, you know what the phone called
Speaker 1: the farm, I'm gonna do it regardless, and I did.
Speaker 1: I made time to make it happen. Yeah. Absolutely, That's
Speaker 1: why we have Corey Sulley here on the Fantasy Freestyle.
Speaker 1: He went ahead, as I've been telling you for months
Speaker 1: here with the Fantasy Sports Network in d k MS.
Speaker 1: All right, um, this is also you know you talk
Speaker 1: about Corey, how you match with a I believe you said,
Speaker 1: a forty year old man, right, And that is that's
Speaker 1: part of the reason why here the Fantasy Sports Network
Speaker 1: we're telling you about d k MS all the time.
Speaker 1: It turns out that really what we are looking for
Speaker 1: for kind of bone, marrow and blooded. We're talking about
Speaker 1: guys that are, you know, between twenty five and forty
Speaker 1: five kind of years of age, and that is that
Speaker 1: is the demographic that plays fantasy. Those are the members
Speaker 1: of the stats overbeat Cipher and you have that opportunity
Speaker 1: to go ahead and help save someone's life. Hey, Corey,
Speaker 1: I know that. You Also you're you're encouraging people that
Speaker 1: if they have any questions, they can kind of reach
Speaker 1: out to you and they can, um, you know, kind
Speaker 1: of get support from you, whether it's on your YouTube
Speaker 1: channel or on Facebook or Instagram. Can you tell the
Speaker 1: people about that as well. Absolutely, to go to YouTube
Speaker 1: and to go under the search icon Corey Sully b
Speaker 1: K M S. And there is a forty nine second
Speaker 1: video of my experience from last year. And then I've
Speaker 1: worked with Universal Circus uh to to co promote the
Speaker 1: service and to promote stamp Cello Bone Rail donation and
Speaker 1: that's a minute video. And what they have been doing
Speaker 1: is they've been sharing the video at the surface in
Speaker 1: New York the last month to get people thinking about
Speaker 1: the process and and if they were like to donate
Speaker 1: and be educated. They had swap stations outside of the circus.
Speaker 1: So a wonderful partnership that d Cambis is doing right
Speaker 1: enough to help help to promote the need to get
Speaker 1: on the registry and too to donate, especially in that
Speaker 1: African American population. Yeah. Absolutely, I like how you mentioned
Speaker 1: the target population. Listen, we need to in essence, what
Speaker 1: they need to do, Corey, right is build their database
Speaker 1: up as big as possible so that when patients are
Speaker 1: in need, we have a better chance of us having
Speaker 1: someone out there that is a match. Hey, Corey, Uh,
Speaker 1: you know you are here though, which speeds the spitting statistician,
Speaker 1: the stable genius and vocal minority of the Fantasy Sports network.
Speaker 1: And so we're talking about d k ms, But I
Speaker 1: would be remiss if I didn't ask you a few
Speaker 1: things about sports. Can we get into sports a little
Speaker 1: bit as well? Corey? Absolutely, let's talk about some sports.
Speaker 1: So here's my question for you, Corey. You know, we
Speaker 1: were going back and forth over email, and you're down
Speaker 1: there in Texas right where they just had the NFL
Speaker 1: dry aft, right, and and so you know in New
Speaker 1: York they used to have it at Radio City Music
Speaker 1: Hall all the time. You know, last year was in Philly.
Speaker 1: But everything I heard from our coverage and from what
Speaker 1: I saw down on TV, everything is pretty much bigger
Speaker 1: down there in Texas. Huh. Can you tell me, like,
Speaker 1: I don't know if you went in saw it or
Speaker 1: if you're nearby there, what was it like to have
Speaker 1: the draft down there at Jerry's World in the start,
Speaker 1: and then we'll dive into the Cowboys a little bit,
Speaker 1: but just you know, hosting the draft and the hundreds
Speaker 1: of thousands of people that went through all weekend long,
Speaker 1: it was a great experience for the fans. Was it
Speaker 1: good to have it down there in your home state? Absolutely?
Speaker 1: They had had it had the NFL experience outside of
Speaker 1: the venue and Dallas, cow was a headquarter here where
Speaker 1: I live in Frisco, So it's a great combination. But
Speaker 1: having at the stadium in Jerry's world, I mean, it
Speaker 1: was a a great experience from the France. I spoke
Speaker 1: to who win and actually actually witnessed a lot of
Speaker 1: those are guys who witnessed their dreams coming true. Was
Speaker 1: it was a phenomenal was a phenomenal site. So absolutely,
Speaker 1: having absolutely, So let's get into because I know you
Speaker 1: said you are a Cowboys fan. Let's get into because
Speaker 1: that is a team with no shortage of news last
Speaker 1: week as related to the draft and moving forward. So
Speaker 1: I want to get your take as a Cowboys fan
Speaker 1: on some of the things that happened. First of all,
Speaker 1: First of all, I know as a Cowboys fan you
Speaker 1: cannot be happy about the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia
Speaker 1: Eagles in your division. But as I don't know if
Speaker 1: you saw this, but with Jason Witten, you know starting
Speaker 1: to maybe there be reports that he may you know,
Speaker 1: move on potentially that Monday night football job is calling.
Speaker 1: You know, this is one of the greatest pass catchers
Speaker 1: in franchise history, one of the greatest tight ends in
Speaker 1: NFL history. And then what happens. The Philadelphia Eagles make
Speaker 1: a trade to jump right ahead of the Dallas Cowboys
Speaker 1: and get a tight end this kid Goddard out of
Speaker 1: San Diego State. Do you think they were doing that,
Speaker 1: maybe to just stick it to the Cowboys and try
Speaker 1: to steal a tight end right after Witten? What do
Speaker 1: you think about this Witten situation? And if the Eagles were,
Speaker 1: you know, playing no mercy draft status right there, you
Speaker 1: know what, I have to agree with you. I mean
Speaker 1: it was a low blow. I mean, with the Cowboys
Speaker 1: out of probably done the same thing. But the Eagles
Speaker 1: are putting their footprint down. I'm going out. I'll show
Speaker 1: them a ton of respect. They should have won the
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. I told Philler fans that if y'all don't
Speaker 1: win this ship, I'm gonna be sick to my stomach.
Speaker 1: And they did what they needed to do, and I
Speaker 1: just have a lot of respect for what they did.
Speaker 1: But I mean, now they're talking, you know, now we
Speaker 1: have to have to ciprocate that how the word on
Speaker 1: the field now this year, you know, with the team
Speaker 1: that we'll have, you know, the team that we have
Speaker 1: is it's gonna be a lot younger, you know, with
Speaker 1: the Stocker draft, absolutely think we're in a rebuilding mode.
Speaker 1: And I'll be just as honest I could, but we're
Speaker 1: gonna rebuilding more, trying to put youth and trying to
Speaker 1: keep that salary cabin number down. And Jerry doesn't want
Speaker 1: to spend a lot of money right invest But I
Speaker 1: think we're past that. So let's talk about let's talk
Speaker 1: about some of that youth out there core. You know,
Speaker 1: in the first round, you go and get vander Rash
Speaker 1: the linebacker, right, this is a guy that maybe you
Speaker 1: could pare with Sean Lee, be another guy who flies
Speaker 1: to the ball, you know, to help that set that
Speaker 1: that linebacker level of that defense. Listen, Sean Lee is great.
Speaker 1: The problem is he can't stay on the field for
Speaker 1: sixteen games. So now you go ahead and remember you
Speaker 1: had Jalen Smith, the kid out of Notre Dame as well.
Speaker 1: You know, he had that those injury concerns. He may
Speaker 1: not ever come back to be as dynamic of a
Speaker 1: player as he would, but then you go, guys, go
Speaker 1: ahead and get Vanderish to help out that defense. Do
Speaker 1: you like them going linebacker to support Shaun Lee at
Speaker 1: that level of defense? Absolutely? And the reason being is
Speaker 1: because you mentioned about the injury concerns and from what
Speaker 1: I've heard, you know that Mandaresh has a has a
Speaker 1: high football of Quatlee. So hope you can become that
Speaker 1: person that the Cowboys want him to be. On the
Speaker 1: defensive side, you know, to call the defense to see
Speaker 1: plays before they're coming in, anticipate, and I I like
Speaker 1: to pick. You know, a lot of people thought they
Speaker 1: shouldn't want wide receiver, but there you know, I don't
Speaker 1: agree with that. I think they needed to boster the
Speaker 1: defenses out of the ball, and they did with some
Speaker 1: nice picks on that side. So let me ask you this.
Speaker 1: You talk about getting the wide receiver, right, they do
Speaker 1: in the third round. They go ahead and get Michael
Speaker 1: Gallup that wide receiver. Listen, you know there's not gonna
Speaker 1: be one player that goes ahead and tries to replace
Speaker 1: a guy like Dez Bryant. But I'll tell you, I
Speaker 1: don't know how you feel about this, Cory, but in
Speaker 1: my opinion, Dez Brian was on the decline. He was
Speaker 1: not able to beat top end cornerbacks the last couple
Speaker 1: of years. Anyway, he's using that big body as a
Speaker 1: red zone threat. But you know everybody gets a little
Speaker 1: bit older. Father time is undefeated. They go ahead and
Speaker 1: get Michael Gallup. They've brought in already Alan Hearns, I
Speaker 1: believe from Jacksonville. Do you like the idea that maybe
Speaker 1: now they're getting more weapons for Dak. I make the
Speaker 1: analogy to like Matthew Stafford when he actually lost Megatron
Speaker 1: Calvin Johnson and was just able to kind of go
Speaker 1: to wherever the matchup dictated, he actually became a better quarterback.
Speaker 1: Do you think the same can happen for deck Dak
Speaker 1: Prescott not having to always hear Dez Bryan in his
Speaker 1: ear in the huddle talking about open he was, and
Speaker 1: now he can go to Cole Beasley, he can go
Speaker 1: to Terrence Williams, he can go to Herns, he can
Speaker 1: go to this kid Gallop wherever the matchup and the
Speaker 1: defense dictate. Couldn't actually make Dak a better quarterback him
Speaker 1: now entering his third season. I completely agree with that,
Speaker 1: and I'm mean tell you that's where the game is
Speaker 1: going for the Cowboys. It's a it's a run first offense,
Speaker 1: but to have a multitude weapons, you really see the
Speaker 1: defense were really not know who the key in on.
Speaker 1: So I think that was huge thing was bigger was
Speaker 1: expected that they let go of bes Briant. I mean
Speaker 1: he was I mean, I'm a number of drops. They
Speaker 1: were unacceptable and its skills were deteriorating, and at a
Speaker 1: point in time you have to let that go and
Speaker 1: go with your youth. And I love to move that
Speaker 1: they made. And really, if you look at the von Austin,
Speaker 1: he's another pick, a former top ten pick they got
Speaker 1: in there. I like the versatility that the offense is
Speaker 1: gonna display and what that's gonna be able to do
Speaker 1: next year. I can't wait to see what he's gonna do.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be really exciting to see. All Right, fair enough,
Speaker 1: so we have a Corey Sully. Obviously, the Cowboys fan
Speaker 1: optimistic after the NFL draft, likes what they did in
Speaker 1: Van the Resh in the first pick. Likes the kind
Speaker 1: of spreading out of the resources in the passing game
Speaker 1: as well. Dallas Cowboys went ahead and got Connor Williams
Speaker 1: out of Texas as well on the offensive line. I
Speaker 1: think the big part of that is it might be
Speaker 1: able to move Lil Collins back into guard, making that
Speaker 1: offensive line once again one of the best in the NFL. Hey, Corey,
Speaker 1: thanks so much for spending a couple of minutes with us,
Speaker 1: and again for your support your service in the fight
Speaker 1: against blood cancer with d k MS. This is a guy,
Speaker 1: This is not the fantasy world you're in the Fantasy
Speaker 1: Sports Network. Corey Sully, real life hero swabbed his cheek
Speaker 1: and has helped someone again the fight against blood cancer.
Speaker 1: Thanks for spending a couple of minutes with us. Corey, Well,
Speaker 1: thank again. I appreciate the opportunity and let me know
Speaker 1: if you'd like me to share it again. I love
Speaker 1: to absolutely thanks for spending a couple of minutes with us.
Speaker 1: That was Corey Sully down there in Texas, d k
Speaker 1: M s athlete for sure. We're chopping up a little
Speaker 1: bit about the Dallas Cowboys as well. During the draft,
Speaker 1: I was sitting here and if you saw the draft
Speaker 1: and you saw my man, Corey Parks, and the fantasy
Speaker 1: executive was sitting here or at least leaning or slumping
Speaker 1: right over there. When he made that. When they Dallas
Speaker 1: Cowboys made their pick, Corey was not necessarily excited about it,
Speaker 1: but they did go ahead and get the wide receiver
Speaker 1: right after that in the third round they boasted that
Speaker 1: offensive line. The NFC East going to be a very
Speaker 1: interesting division moving forward. That's gonna just about do it
Speaker 1: for me here in the Fantasy Freestyle. Remember, you can
Speaker 1: catch me, oh I forgot even on Wednesday tomorrow, my
Speaker 1: man Joe Pissapia, you can catch me on the full
Speaker 1: sixty over there on fan tracks. I'm gonna be chopping

Speaker 1: And then next week, when we're back here in the
Speaker 1: stats over Beat Cipher and the Fantasy Freestyle, we're gonna
Speaker 1: be breaking down some a little bit more of the draft.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you about the why receiver position that I
Speaker 1: like and a little bit more detail on why I
Speaker 1: don't really ride with tight ends in the first year
Speaker 1: in fantasy sports. All right, So that'll be it. Come
