Now, 5 00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 2: here's your host, Paul Chargian. 6 00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:24,560 Speaker 1: Hey, everybody, welcome to Fantasy Football Weekly. I am Paul 7 00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:29,280 Speaker 1: Charchian my co host today Kent, Whyrock, Hey Kent, good 8 00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:29,800 Speaker 1: to have you back. 9 00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:32,680 Speaker 3: Ay Ball, how are we doing. Glad to be back, 10 00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,319 Speaker 3: and you know, we wrapped up the divisions and now 11 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 3: we get to explore some other fun stuff. 12 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:39,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, we're gonna have a great time today. Really excited 13 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 1: for this show because we're going to talk about the 14 00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:43,479 Speaker 1: last pick of your draft. You know, we focus on 15 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:47,160 Speaker 1: the rest of your draft almost exclusively. We don't talk 16 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:49,640 Speaker 1: that much about the last pick now. And this is 17 00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:53,280 Speaker 1: a little bit different than sleepers. Everybody does sleeper stuff. 18 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 1: That's not frankly all that comment uncommon at all. But 19 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:01,160 Speaker 1: anything could be a sleeper. In my definition of sleeper, Kent, 20 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:05,560 Speaker 1: if a third rounder who can perform like a first rounder, 21 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,360 Speaker 1: to me, constitutes a sleeper, not a you know, not 22 00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:10,400 Speaker 1: a big one. It doesn't have you know, it could 23 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 1: be an eighth rounder performs like a third rounder. So 24 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 1: for me, this is a little bit different. This is 25 00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 1: finding a guy who can help you on the last 26 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 1: pick of the draft, and that to me is a 27 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:29,320 Speaker 1: is a little it's orders of magnitude harder than just sleepers. 28 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 3: Absolutely and sleepers. It's you know, it's like people are 29 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 3: asleep at the wheel about their value. That's kind of 30 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,560 Speaker 3: the way to think about it. It's not just late 31 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,680 Speaker 3: round guys. It mostly is just because that's kind of 32 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,120 Speaker 3: the nature of how people are sleeping on players. But 33 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 3: this is so interesting because you know, when we're talking 34 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:48,280 Speaker 3: about you know, and I know we pulled a lot 35 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 3: of this from you know, like best ball data, because 36 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 3: that's what we got right now. But we're getting into 37 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 3: redraft season and those last couple of picks, they can 38 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:57,000 Speaker 3: either be dynamite or you just cut them week one 39 00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 3: or week two, and that's fine. But if you find 40 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 3: that late, it's a big turnaround in terms of value. 41 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 1: All right, Well, let's talk philosophically. Ken, With the last 42 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 1: pick of your draft, would you rather find somebody who 43 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 1: has who could drop, who has a small percentage chance 44 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,360 Speaker 1: but could end up being explosively good, or you just 45 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 1: looking with that last pick of your draft to find 46 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:21,920 Speaker 1: a guy you can keep on your bench and just 47 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 1: like start them two times during the year, three times 48 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 1: during the year, and somebody that can just like fill 49 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:29,680 Speaker 1: a void. Do you understand the distinction I'm trying to make. 50 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 3: Here, Yeah. Absolutely, And I'm looking for upside. I'm looking 51 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 3: for the bowl case on all these guys, because you know, 52 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 3: on any given week, you can probably depending on your 53 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 3: league settings, find a guy who can start on the 54 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:42,640 Speaker 3: waiver wire. It's not gonna be great, it'll be in 55 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 3: a pinch, it'll be a you know, seven point outing 56 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 3: or something like that, but you could find someone who 57 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 3: can fill a gap pretty simply. It's it's that upside. 58 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 3: It's that that crazy, like you win your league off 59 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 3: of it type stuff that I think we're really shooting. 60 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,400 Speaker 1: For here, yep. And you're gonna see that in the 61 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 1: six players you're gonna hear about. I think all have 62 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 1: the possibility of turning into if the situation's break right. 63 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 1: And obviously we're talking last pick your draft, so none 64 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 1: of these none of these things are likely, but they were, 65 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: they wouldn't be the last picks. But if things break right, 66 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,920 Speaker 1: these could all be massive contributors. And in most formats, 67 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: not Guillotine. Most formats, Kent, you have to shoot for 68 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:25,359 Speaker 1: tip of the spear. You have to be the best 69 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 1: of ten teams or the best of twelve teams. You 70 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 1: have to get a couple of these breaks to go 71 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 1: your way. Guillotine's different where you're just looking to survive 72 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 1: every week. That's a very different model. Here. You have 73 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 1: to get in a traditional league, most leagues, best ball. 74 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: You just got to get some breaks, and these are 75 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: guys that could potentially help you. Now I know Kent 76 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 1: people are fascinated to learn the many travails of my 77 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 1: move and where am I geographically in my house. This 78 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 1: has been a roving discuss every week we talk about 79 00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 1: where I am now. I've done shows from the closet, 80 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: I've done shows from u from my living room, I've 81 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 1: done shows from my kitchen. This I'm now office. I'm 82 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 1: I now have the Utah office going. But the movers 83 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 1: showed up with the second half of my stuff two 84 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:18,880 Speaker 1: weeks late, and everything's in boxes. So I'm right now, 85 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 1: I've got You can't see all the stuff. It's all 86 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,720 Speaker 1: just it's all pandemonium here, boxes and stuff's all on. 87 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 1: You know, nothing's out, I do anything set up, don't 88 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: have any of the sound dampening in my office that 89 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,719 Speaker 1: I want to have yet. So there's your there's just 90 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:34,600 Speaker 1: a quick update right now you get you can see it. 91 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 3: We need where in the world is Paul Chargion drop 92 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 3: for for what's going on right now? 93 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, we really do. You're too young to remember Carmen 94 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:42,919 Speaker 1: san Diego. 95 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,160 Speaker 3: I saw glimpses. I won't say I was any kind 96 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 3: of a devout viewer, but it was around. Yeah. 97 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 1: So now the fact that you even went to the 98 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 1: viewer before the video game shows you. 99 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:53,720 Speaker 3: Right, Okay, that's a fair call out. 100 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, the the karma. Where in the World Is Carmen 101 00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 1: san Diego started its life as a edgeywear title. It 102 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:04,359 Speaker 1: was a video game from the nineteenth like late eighties 103 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,600 Speaker 1: or early nineties, I'm going to go early nineties, and 104 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,159 Speaker 1: it spun off into a TV show and the TV 105 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: show did great. It was on for many, many years, 106 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,599 Speaker 1: and you learned about the geography of all these different 107 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: places as Carmen san Diego rent around the world and 108 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 1: you're trying to track her down. And although I think 109 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:22,840 Speaker 1: Carmen could be a guy too. I think he didn't 110 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,600 Speaker 1: know for sure if you were tracking a man or 111 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 1: a woman. 112 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 3: But yeah, the old days, well today we're tracking down 113 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 3: some late round darts. 114 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, nice transition right there. Do you want to go? 115 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 1: Let's have you go first. Who's the first last pick 116 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: of your draft? Kent? 117 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 3: My first last pick is going to be Roshan Johnson, 118 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,480 Speaker 3: running back for the Chicago Bears. And you know it's 119 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:47,799 Speaker 3: not a sexy name. He hasn't really been a huge 120 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 3: producer over the last few years. In fact, he's somewhat 121 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:52,920 Speaker 3: struggled at times, and so you know that's kind of 122 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 3: the reason why his ADP is where it is right now. 123 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,040 Speaker 3: But there is a new head coach in town, Ben Johnson. 124 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 3: He was the latest and greatest in offensive coaches to 125 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 3: pick up a head coaching gig. And you know he's 126 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:05,599 Speaker 3: coming from the Detroit Lions, where he had DeAndre Swift 127 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:09,360 Speaker 3: on his team back in twenty twenty two. Bench. Yeah, 128 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 3: he certainly did. But one thing to note is that 129 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 3: Ben Johnson's rush touchdown league ranks as an OC They're 130 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 3: gonna be third, first, and second in the league. He's 131 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:21,480 Speaker 3: never been below third. 132 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, and so now and wait, let me just let 133 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,239 Speaker 1: me jump in right there. Ken, that's without Josh Allen 134 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 1: and Jalen Hurts on his team. I mean, those quarterbacks 135 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 1: have to be in. I mean, I gotta believe number 136 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 1: one and number two teams are probably Philadelphia and Buffalo 137 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: in those years because of the quarterbacks that are housing ten, twelve, 138 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 1: fourteen touchdowns each up close. Ben Johnson's not doing that 139 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 1: with Jared Goff. 140 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,480 Speaker 3: Nope, not too often. He doesn't sometimes, but he's certainly 141 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 3: not a guy known for his legs, So we could 142 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:54,920 Speaker 3: go that route. But yeah, you might recall that back 143 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 3: in twenty twenty two was actually the Jamal Williams year. 144 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 3: He had two hundred and sixty two attempts, one thousand 145 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 3: plus rushing yards, and seventeen rushing touchdowns. 146 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:04,159 Speaker 1: Which is unbelievable. 147 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 3: I think more than the rest of his career combined. 148 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 3: I don't have the number off the top of my head, 149 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 3: but it was a big chunk of his overall rushing 150 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 3: touchdown percentage. And DeAndre Swift missed three games and he 151 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 3: didn't even get to one hundred attempts on the ground, 152 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 3: five hundred and forty two rush yards and only five touchdowns, 153 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 3: So you know the fact that he Ben Johnson that 154 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 3: is leaned into the usage of Jamal Williams that year 155 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 3: is pretty stark in terms of comparing to DeAndre Swift, 156 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 3: who we thought was kind of an up and coming 157 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 3: guy at the time, and that was his first I think, 158 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 3: like real down year and it's been kind of sketchy since. So, 159 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 3: you know, real quick size comparison, I think is an 160 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 3: important distinction here because we're talking about Roshan Johnson, who 161 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 3: is six foot two hundred and twenty five pounds. Wow, 162 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 3: Jamal Williams is six foot two hundred twenty four pounds, 163 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 3: So if you'll allow me the one pound leeway, I 164 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 3: can say they're pretty much the exact same size. And 165 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 3: then Swift's a smaller guy. He's have five to nine 166 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 3: two and fifteen pounds, So if we're looking for a 167 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 3: one to one replacement of what he accomplished with Jamal Williams, 168 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 3: I would rather look Roshan Johnson's way for that touchdown 169 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 3: goal line potential. And you know last year his yards 170 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 3: per carry, which I think a lot of people look 171 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 3: at that's a very common stat It was two point seven. 172 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 3: I say, we can just ignore it because he was 173 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 3: almost exclusively used in short yardage situations last year and 174 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 3: that's going to affect your yards per carry. And yeah, 175 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 3: I was thirty eight percent of his carries were in 176 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 3: one to three yard situations, right, and so in gold 177 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:33,079 Speaker 3: to gost situations, Roshan Johnson scored six out of excuse me, 178 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 3: all six of his touchdowns on just seven attempts. So 179 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 3: he scored on six out of seven gold to goes. 180 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 3: That's really good stuff. That's the type of scoring potential 181 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 3: that head coaches and offense coordinators love. They want the 182 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 3: guy who can get into the pay dirt and score 183 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:50,679 Speaker 3: the points for the teams. So if they're looking to 184 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,680 Speaker 3: someone in the red zone at the one to five 185 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 3: yard line, Roshan Johnson I think is a better person 186 00:08:56,679 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 3: to look into than DeAndre Swift is who I think 187 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 3: we all thought were going to sign a free agent 188 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 3: running back didn't ever get one. So it's just Roshan 189 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 3: Johnson Jeandre Swift. There there is a little bit of 190 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 3: like camp height, and I know you've talked about Kyle Mnunguy, 191 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 3: but he's a seventh rounder, a smaller So if he's 192 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 3: going to replace anyone I would wager he's going to 193 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 3: replace Swift and then they'll just have to figure out 194 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 3: something with the receiving work. But I think if you're 195 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 3: looking for that big bruiser goal line back, Roshan Johnson's 196 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 3: the guy, and at Ben Johnson, who Johnson and Johnson, 197 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 3: we got something going there can come to fruition. This 198 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,080 Speaker 3: could be a ten plus touchdown season for Roshan. 199 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: I could see it. I think that's a defensible case. 200 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 1: The offensive line got way better between the guards and 201 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 1: Roshan Johnson. Ten touchdowns would not surprise me. I like it. 202 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:45,319 Speaker 1: That makes a ton of sense. My guy is less 203 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 1: probable for ten touchdowns by a fair margin. I'm going 204 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 1: with my first last pick of the draft. I am 205 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 1: ta And by the way, I should note each of 206 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: these players has to be from round fourteen or lower 207 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 1: to constitute last pick of the draft. I think most 208 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:05,080 Speaker 1: leagues are at least fourteen players. Summer way bigger than fourteen. 209 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,319 Speaker 1: I don't love that, but that's just me. So he 210 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 1: had to be at least pick one hundred and sixty 211 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 1: eight to qualify. My guy's quite a bit below that. 212 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: And it's New Orleans running back Devin Neil the rookie. 213 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 1: He was Thor's number six running back when we checked 214 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 1: in with Thor on this show shortly before the draft 215 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 1: on the running back position. And I think the State 216 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,319 Speaker 1: Saints got just a steal taken Devin Neil in the 217 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 1: sixth round. You know, Alvin Kamara last year absolutely played 218 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:37,200 Speaker 1: gallantly in the face of zero quarterbacking, no healthy receivers, 219 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:42,959 Speaker 1: and a absolutely beat up offensive line. You know, Kamara 220 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:48,559 Speaker 1: is sitting on two thousand, two hundred career touches. He 221 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: turns thirty next month. He has had a ton of work. 222 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,840 Speaker 1: And if anything were to happen to Kamara, or if 223 00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 1: they just don't want to use him as much, the 224 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: depth charts really thick in Kendrey Miller and Clyde Edwards Hilaire. 225 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: Kendray Miller couldn't get on the field last year when 226 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 1: they needed to spell, they needed to spell Kamara a lot. 227 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:12,719 Speaker 1: Kendrey Miller was a non factor for most of the 228 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 1: last year, although also hurt for much of the year. 229 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:19,559 Speaker 1: Clyde Edwards Hilaire obviously cut by the Chiefs. Neil could 230 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:23,119 Speaker 1: easily win the backup job, and stylistically he's the closest 231 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 1: player to Alvin Kamara the Saints have on the roster. 232 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 1: He's slow where Kamara's really fast, but otherwise he's super shifty. 233 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 1: He's got amazing footwork. His vision is tremendous. If a 234 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 1: cutback lane opens up, Devin Neil's gonna find it and 235 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,960 Speaker 1: he can catch fifty one receptions the last two years 236 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 1: at Kansas. So Devin Neils is that shot in the dark. 237 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 1: We don't wish bad things on any player, especially injury, 238 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 1: including Alvin Kamara, but if anything were to happen there 239 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 1: or they just need to spell Camara more than they 240 00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:57,959 Speaker 1: have in the past, Devin Neil at thirty years old, 241 00:11:58,000 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 1: Devin Neil might be an interesting guy. 242 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I know we talked about this a little bit, 243 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 3: and I like Alvin Kamara at his value this year 244 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:07,559 Speaker 3: because he is going later than he has in years past. 245 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 3: But certainly the reason that he's being drafted as late 246 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 3: as he is is because of the risk associated with, 247 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 3: you know, his health and what the direction is of 248 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,200 Speaker 3: this team is going to be. I mean, they're still 249 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,199 Speaker 3: working their way out of a lot of cap problems 250 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:21,439 Speaker 3: that they're they're trying to fix, and this is Tyler 251 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 3: Shuck's team for the foreseeable future. It's a very interesting 252 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 3: direction for the Saints right now. And so you know, 253 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 3: if they do want to find some juice and they're 254 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 3: going to look to the guys who can perform regardless 255 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 3: of where they got drafted, Devin Neils certainly in line 256 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,080 Speaker 3: to make a jump later in the year. 257 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:39,559 Speaker 1: All right, let's go to your second last pick of 258 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: the draft. Kent. 259 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, so this this one technically abides by our ADP 260 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 3: rules ADP rules, But you know, Nick Chubb, the Houston 261 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 3: running back, very recently signed. He could climb up in 262 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 3: ADP in the in the coming weeks and certainly throughout 263 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:57,320 Speaker 3: camp if we hear positive news. But it's a very 264 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 3: interesting situation. You know, last year he was turning from 265 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 3: a very gruesome knee injury and repair. He had an 266 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:06,440 Speaker 3: MCL and meniscus and then subsequently had his ACL repaired 267 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:08,559 Speaker 3: on top of that, so it was a it was 268 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 3: a tough road to recovery for him in his running form. 269 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 3: And then last year he was looking rough and then 270 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 3: started looking a little better and then got a foot 271 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 3: fracture in week fifteen, so knocked out once again. Now, 272 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 3: luckily foot fractures you can heal from pretty quickly. They're 273 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 3: not too bad in terms of altering your running form 274 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 3: or anything like that. So hopefully with one more offseason 275 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:33,079 Speaker 3: separated from that terrible knee injury, we can see a 276 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 3: little bit more of the Nick Chubb of old. And honestly, 277 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:39,520 Speaker 3: last year between the tackles, he was better in advanced 278 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:43,559 Speaker 3: metrics than Joe Mixon was, and it's not much, and 279 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 3: both of them were technically below expectation. But you know, 280 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:50,319 Speaker 3: we've talked about how one of the greatest attributes of 281 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 3: Joe Mixon this year is that there's no competition. Well, 282 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,080 Speaker 3: if you can get Nick Chubb coming back to seventy 283 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 3: five eighty percent of what he has been in the past, 284 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,199 Speaker 3: it might not be what you'd love out of Nick job, 285 00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 3: but it's certainly competition. It's certainly more than dari Ogumwallee 286 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:12,440 Speaker 3: and certainly more than Damian Pierce. So hey, careful, it's careful, Faul. Yeah, 287 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 3: you know, I understand where you're coming from. 288 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 1: I am I'm a Damien Pierce apologist. I always feel 289 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 1: like he's been under used, but the rest of it 290 00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 1: I certainly agree with. Here, let me give you one 291 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 1: more thing on mixing that worries me about him ran 292 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,320 Speaker 1: out of gas last year you could see, yeah, totally. 293 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 1: And you know, over his final six games he drooped 294 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,560 Speaker 1: down to twenty ninth in rushing yards, thirty first in 295 00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:40,320 Speaker 1: average yards per carry, and twenty fifth in avoided tackle rate. 296 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 1: That's mixin final six games the last year. So now 297 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 1: add another year onto the you know, onto his age. 298 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 1: He's now twenty nine. He's had twenty three hundred career 299 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 1: touches Joe Mixon has and I you know, it might 300 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: not be Week one when he you know, he falls apart, 301 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 1: but at some point you wonder if this coming sea 302 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 1: and he's going to have another scenario where he just 303 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 1: runs out of gas and they got to go to 304 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 1: Nick Chubb. 305 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:08,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, And so you know, this is a team that 306 00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:11,920 Speaker 3: I think still has pretty good aspirations for the playoffs. Yeah, 307 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 3: they might do some load balancing and stuff like that too. 308 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 3: So if Nick Jubb is a guy who can end 309 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 3: up getting up to like maybe ten touches a game, 310 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 3: you know, limited compared to what we've seen in the 311 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 3: year's past, that's still enough. If he can bounce back 312 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 3: in terms of his efficiency in his running style. You know, 313 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 3: last year the Texans were dead last and rushing success 314 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 3: rate second worst, and run block win rate from ESPN. 315 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 3: They didn't really fix their offensive line. They've made some changes, 316 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:40,400 Speaker 3: but I think one thing they didn't fix it. They 317 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 3: made changes, but one thing I do want to call 318 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 3: out is that they promoted a new offensive line coach, 319 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 3: Cole Popovich just really distantly related to Greg Actually did 320 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 3: not know that. Yeah, fun fact I found it out 321 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 3: by doing the research, so that was fun. But that 322 00:15:56,040 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 3: could be a catalyst for some improvement in maybe cohesiveness, 323 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:02,720 Speaker 3: if not just talent or ability. 324 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 1: I really want to believe Houston's going to bounce back 325 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 1: to the promise that they showed two years ago. They can. 326 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 1: Their offensive coordinator, Bobby slok It looked like a genius 327 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,240 Speaker 1: in the first year. When you know, we're all like, 328 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 1: oh my god, c J. Stroud is this is he 329 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 1: had one of the best rookie seasons of any quarterback 330 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 1: in memory. And to have it all fall apart so quickly, 331 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 1: I don't think. I think most of that was on 332 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 1: the offensive line, much more than Bobby Sloan. But we've 333 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 1: given you three different running backs. This is not just 334 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 1: a running back show we are doing. Last pick of 335 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 1: the draft doesn't have to be a running back, although 336 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 1: I think running backs it's it's a little frankly, it's 337 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:39,200 Speaker 1: it's a little bit easier to make cases for running 338 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 1: backs and other position. 339 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 3: They're the tickets. 340 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 1: Absolutely. 341 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 3: If you're looking for a guy to have a quick 342 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 3: influx of value, it's almost always running backs. Midway through 343 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 3: the year, let. 344 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 1: Me give you a tight end. That's New Orleans tight 345 00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 1: end Juwan Johnson, who on the surface sounds ultra boring 346 00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 1: because he has never distinguished himself in the Saints offense, 347 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:04,560 Speaker 1: particularly although he's coming off career highs in targets, catches, 348 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 1: and receiving yards last year, pretty good numbers. In March, 349 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 1: they signed him to a three year, thirty million dollar extension. 350 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 1: Ked I'm like Jwan Johnson, but you know what they knew. 351 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 1: Taysom Hill's not coming back. He's tore his ACL in December, 352 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,240 Speaker 1: it's unclear, and he's thirty four years old. Taysom Hills 353 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:29,959 Speaker 1: sneaky old and backup Foster Moreau knee injury in January. 354 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,159 Speaker 1: He's he was not able to participate in any of 355 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:35,160 Speaker 1: the OTAs. His status for training camp is not clear, 356 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:37,920 Speaker 1: and he's the backup anyway. Johnson is going to be 357 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 1: the number one tight end on a Saints team where 358 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 1: they're going to be starting a rookie quarterback, a green quarterback, 359 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 1: no matter what, probably a rookie quarterback. And you know, 360 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 1: we love we know rookie quarterbacks love their dump off 361 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 1: tight ends, right they own, they get in the pocket, 362 00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:56,399 Speaker 1: they make their one read, and then they panic and 363 00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:58,719 Speaker 1: they dump the ball off to their safety valve tight end. 364 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,439 Speaker 1: It's easy to see Johnson getting a bunch of easy 365 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:07,160 Speaker 1: catches in this new Saints offense, and the depth chart, 366 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 1: a wide receiver gets real thin, real fast. Yea Chris 367 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,200 Speaker 1: olave Rashidchi He's gonna try to come back from injury. 368 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 1: And then last thing I'll mention on Juwan Johnson. Kellen 369 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:19,200 Speaker 1: Moore's your new head coach and he will be the 370 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 1: play caller. He's the one in Stalling's offense. Last year 371 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 1: Kellen Moore as Philadelphia's offensive coordinator, Dallas Goddard was tight 372 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:30,680 Speaker 1: end eleven in PPR points per game. The previous year 373 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:32,919 Speaker 1: he was with the Chargers as their offensive coordinator, they 374 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:35,040 Speaker 1: only had Gerald Everard. He was tight end twenty two. 375 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,120 Speaker 1: But the year before that he was the Cowboys offensive 376 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 1: coordinator and Kellen Moore got Dalton Schultz to tight end 377 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 1: seven and got him paid. And so there's some real 378 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:47,520 Speaker 1: opportunity in a Kellen Moore offense for Juwan Johnson to 379 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 1: make good. As the last pick in your draft. 380 00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:53,960 Speaker 3: I'm just wondering who your third Saints player is gonna be. 381 00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 1: I know, right, I think I've run out of meaningful 382 00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:00,399 Speaker 1: Saints right now. There's that we may have app that 383 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 1: that as far as it can go. 384 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it goes by how the quarterback situation goes. 385 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 3: If if we see an emergence of Shuck, then you 386 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 3: know this could be absolutely a breakout candidate and someone 387 00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:13,439 Speaker 3: who that I know a lot of people have had 388 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:14,760 Speaker 3: their eyes on Juwan Johnson. 389 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 1: So yeah, I don't think Shuck's gonna break out. Honestly, 390 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 1: I think they'll be drafting another quarterback later but next year. 391 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:25,639 Speaker 1: But I still think he can catch a bunch of 392 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 1: dump off stuff. We'll find out Juan Johnson. All right, Ken, 393 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,919 Speaker 1: who is your third and final last pick of the draft. 394 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:35,919 Speaker 3: Well, see one play one. I have a tight end 395 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:39,919 Speaker 3: as well. No wide receivers now, now that I'm realizing 396 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:41,679 Speaker 3: that unless you have one in your up your sleeve here, 397 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,960 Speaker 3: but my tight end is going to be New York 398 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 3: Giants tight end Theo Johnson, and Theo Johnson's an interesting case. 399 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 3: He's definitely under the radar. I think he might be 400 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:55,639 Speaker 3: one of the lowest ones in terms of ADP right now, 401 00:19:56,080 --> 00:20:00,080 Speaker 3: and so he's very much like the mister irrelevant of 402 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:03,760 Speaker 3: your fantasy football draft. He came out of college playing 403 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 3: behind Brenton Strange, who had a nice little, you know, 404 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:10,480 Speaker 3: kind of semi breakout after Evan Ingram got injured last year, 405 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 3: and a guy named Tyler Warren maybe you've heard of him. 406 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:16,640 Speaker 3: He got wrapped it this year in the first round. 407 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:18,879 Speaker 3: So he played behind those two guys in college, and 408 00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 3: then prior to that, he actually played Canadian football in 409 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 3: high school. So we're talking twelve man per side, larger field, 410 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 3: different game, and well not entirely, but certainly the scheme 411 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:30,879 Speaker 3: is different. Stuff like that. So there's been a bit 412 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 3: of a learning curve. But can I interest you in 413 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 3: a nine point nine to nine raz which is the 414 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:39,880 Speaker 3: second highest tight end since nineteen eighty seven? 415 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 1: Okay, you know who number one was? 416 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:45,359 Speaker 3: No? Yeah, it's uh, oh, oh, who do you think 417 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 3: it was? 418 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:50,159 Speaker 1: Actually, I believe I know because I'm the only person 419 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 1: potentially on the planet, and in fact, I'm gonna go 420 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 1: likely on the planet, including his own team that thinks 421 00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:02,120 Speaker 1: that there's still a possible of Jelanie Woods turning into 422 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:03,440 Speaker 1: a meaningful NFL player. 423 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 3: He was number three years all. The first one is 424 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:12,119 Speaker 3: you may recall, I honestly had to look him up 425 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:15,240 Speaker 3: to remind myself its Zach Kuntz. H he was, I 426 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:17,160 Speaker 3: believe on the Eagles for a short period of time. 427 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 3: If if I'm not mistaken, did not amount to anything. 428 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:20,399 Speaker 3: That's you forgot. 429 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 1: That's a guy you have to enunciate very very carefully. 430 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 3: Yep, and I did my best. So let's let's work 431 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:31,360 Speaker 3: past that. But yeah, super athletic, and you know, tight 432 00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 3: end is a position on offense that correlates to production 433 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 3: the best out of any other position. So if you 434 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:40,440 Speaker 3: got a guy who you know, even though he has 435 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 3: a learning curve because he came out of Canadian football 436 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 3: and he played behind two, uh you know, other really 437 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 3: good tight ends, let's keep an eye on him. You know, 438 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,119 Speaker 3: last year he suffered a list frank injury in week thirteen. 439 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,399 Speaker 3: He missed the rest of the year, but the final 440 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,160 Speaker 3: five games leading up to that injury, he was starting 441 00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 3: to break out as a rookie. And you know, it 442 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,960 Speaker 3: wasn't like world ending numbers or anything like that. It 443 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:06,359 Speaker 3: was five point four targets, forty three yards and point 444 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 3: two touchdowns per game, just modest numbers. But let me 445 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:12,879 Speaker 3: remind you he was playing with Daniel Jones, Drew Locke, 446 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 3: and Tommy Cutletz Divito, so he had a real mixed 447 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 3: bag of quarterback play during that period. And you know, 448 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 3: given the situation and the experience and his background, it's 449 00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 3: their modest but respectable numbers, I think. So this year 450 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 3: we're gonna have Russell Wilson stepping into the fold. Who 451 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,439 Speaker 3: you know, people have their opinions of him, but certainly 452 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:37,479 Speaker 3: better than that situation. And he was fine last year. 453 00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 3: He was eleventh in PFFS passing grade. He set up 454 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 3: Pat Fryarmuth for his best fantasy season to date, and 455 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 3: if you extrapolate the season when Russell Wilson took over, 456 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:52,439 Speaker 3: Friarmuth was on an eighty target, seven hundred yard, eight 457 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 3: or nine touchdown season, which would if we got something 458 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:57,440 Speaker 3: similar to that out of THEO Johnson, it would be 459 00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 3: a great situation. You know, Friar Ruth quietly was twelfth 460 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:03,680 Speaker 3: in red zone targets last year. I don't think I 461 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 3: would have thought that if I didn't look. 462 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 1: It up, which is not exactly If that's the most 463 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 1: compelling stat you can come up with on Pat Fryarmouth, 464 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:14,119 Speaker 1: that he was twelfth in red zone targets, I don't know. 465 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:18,399 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's more about Russell Wilson, more about he's willing 466 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 3: to target the tight end, and frankly, there's virtually no 467 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 3: tight end competition on this team right now. Daniel Bellinger 468 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 3: is just a guy. Chris Manherds is a veteran blocker, 469 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:30,359 Speaker 3: and then they have Greg Dultcha on the roster. But 470 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 3: that experiment's over. I'm done with it. 471 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 1: That will not allow Yeah. 472 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:38,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, so, uh. Looking over to their receivers, which I 473 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 3: think is an important kind of distinction when talking about 474 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:44,120 Speaker 3: tight ends, is they really don't have a solid number two. 475 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 3: They have, you know, Malik Neighbors is obviously there one, 476 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 3: and he's awesome. They have Darius Slayton, who's a deep 477 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,880 Speaker 3: threat kind of guy, doesn't really do too much else 478 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:53,920 Speaker 3: and then they have Wandale Robinson, who's kind of a 479 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:57,400 Speaker 3: short at gadgety type player, and I don't think he's 480 00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:00,200 Speaker 3: gonna amount to anything significant in terms of a full 481 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:03,680 Speaker 3: route tree. So you have this opportunity for someone to 482 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 3: work some crossers, work up the scene, and I think 483 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 3: THEO Johnson could potentially be that guy to take up 484 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:09,679 Speaker 3: those targets. 485 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 1: All right, THEO john IIY. I if it came down 486 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 1: to Juwan Johnson or THEO Johnson, which Johnson are you picking? 487 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:21,480 Speaker 3: Oh Man, Juan Johnson. I believe it has the better 488 00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 3: case right now, and I think he's hiring ADP Yeah, 489 00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:26,639 Speaker 3: so I would probably just have to go him for 490 00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 3: that reason. But I know that in my best ball 491 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 3: drafts that I'm doing right now and stuff where I 492 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:33,399 Speaker 3: have a little bit deeper of a roster, I am 493 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 3: grabbing THEO Johnson absolutely everywhere I can. 494 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:38,919 Speaker 1: All Right, you're grabbing Johnson everywhere you can? All right, Well, 495 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:41,800 Speaker 1: welcome to the show now. Now it's officially a Fantasy 496 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:46,200 Speaker 1: Football Weekly. Last pick for me on my last pick 497 00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 1: of the draft, My last pick, last pick is a 498 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 1: guy that we alluded to, well let me allude to. 499 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,359 Speaker 1: We talked about him last week, But I'm just I 500 00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:55,320 Speaker 1: liked him last week and I like him this week, 501 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:58,479 Speaker 1: so I'm mentioning him again. Baltimore running back Justice Hill. 502 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 1: I used to be moan Hill's insertion into the Ravens 503 00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 1: offense back when it was when JK. Dobbins was still 504 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 1: young and good and Gus Edwards was young, healthy and good, 505 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 1: and no it's not even a matter of young. They 506 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:13,479 Speaker 1: were just healthy and good, and I'd be like, oh, 507 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:15,160 Speaker 1: just pound those guys, and I never wanted to see 508 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:18,960 Speaker 1: Justice Hill in the field. Then last year he looked 509 00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:22,919 Speaker 1: just like a different back PFF grading way way up 510 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 1: and turned into a really good pass catching back. I 511 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 1: just feel like Justice Hill is a high priority handcuff 512 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:32,560 Speaker 1: behind Derrick Henry, and I don't even want to get 513 00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:34,480 Speaker 1: into like, you know, if Henry goes down, then you know, 514 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 1: Hill obviously would be you know, turned into roughly a 515 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:40,280 Speaker 1: top ten fantasy running back. But even what I like 516 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 1: about Justice Hill is I don't need that injury because 517 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 1: the pass catching has been so good. He finished his 518 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 1: Pro Football Focus is number three ranked receiving running back. 519 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:51,919 Speaker 1: Last year, he had forty two catches and zero drops, 520 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 1: so I think he can be a PPR helper. Any 521 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 1: week that you have to you got when you've got 522 00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:00,159 Speaker 1: to turn to your bench, it's a bye week, an 523 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:02,399 Speaker 1: injury or something, you could start Justice Hill keep your 524 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 1: fingers crossed. You get to ten PPR points and then 525 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:07,680 Speaker 1: you know, if God forbid something happens to Derek Henry, 526 00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 1: you're sitting on a gold mine. So I feel like 527 00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 1: he helps you both ways. 528 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:13,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think we've talked about before that. I like 529 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,119 Speaker 3: Keith Mitchell here as well if there's an injury. But 530 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 3: if let's say Derek Henry stays healthy, Justice Hill is 531 00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 3: definitely a better selection of the team. He's got that 532 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:24,919 Speaker 3: PPR floor. Like you said, he's very a dynamic. They 533 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,359 Speaker 3: gave him the contract last year, so they're gonna be 534 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:30,399 Speaker 3: using him as much as they can. You know, whenever 535 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 3: you see a running Mack get extended, it's it's a 536 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 3: sign that the offense values him and so you're going 537 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:37,919 Speaker 3: to keep him in the fold. And Derek Henry's obviously 538 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:40,440 Speaker 3: the lead dog here, but yeah, it's always nice to 539 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:41,920 Speaker 3: have a flex player that you can get for pretty 540 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:42,440 Speaker 3: pretty cheap. 541 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:44,440 Speaker 1: Yeah. I like that part too, Kent, You've done a 542 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:46,200 Speaker 1: lot of shows you finally get to take a break 543 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:50,400 Speaker 1: for over a month. Yeah, how about that. Next week 544 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:54,000 Speaker 1: we're going to turn our attention to do the opposite. 545 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about when you should do the opposite, 546 00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:58,879 Speaker 1: when you should and do the opposite. If you don't know, 547 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:03,440 Speaker 1: is the it's the origin. It's the original no running back, 548 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,480 Speaker 1: zero RB approach that we were talking about on the show, 549 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:12,680 Speaker 1: ten full years before anybody knew the term zero running back. Kent, 550 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 1: and we'll be talking about where to do the opposite, 551 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:17,879 Speaker 1: where to undo the opposite? Next week. That'll be with 552 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,200 Speaker 1: Matt And there's been a ton of fun, love talking 553 00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:22,160 Speaker 1: about the bottom of the draft as opposed to where 554 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:25,320 Speaker 1: we usually focus our attention. Kent, great job, thank you, 555 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:27,200 Speaker 1: glad to be here and it was a good chet Yep. 556 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:30,880 Speaker 1: We'll talk to everybody next week.
