1
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:15,000
Speaker 1: Fantasy freaks and geeks. What is up? I'm James Kelly.

2
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:19,079
Speaker 1: You're listening to the NFL Fantasy Line podcast, joined alongside

3
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:22,560
Speaker 1: MG my boy, Marcus Grant, the whiz kid from Wisconsin,

4
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:25,960
Speaker 1: Alex galhar what's up man? What's going on? And oh,

5
00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:28,600
Speaker 1: by the way, no Michael Fabiona today, but in his

6
00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 1: stead one Mr Adam Rank. Let me tell you a

7
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:35,479
Speaker 1: little backstory about Adam Rank. Here. We told him we're

8
00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 1: gonna do We're gonna do the podcast, and he basically

9
00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 1: threw his weight around. He said, hey, you can't have

10
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:47,080
Speaker 1: a podcast without me, pal, and so here he is, Hey, Adam,

11
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:48,599
Speaker 1: welcome to the show. I was going to have an

12
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:51,519
Speaker 1: advocate stand in for me. And then they said I

13
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 1: had to be here. I know I'm here. That's not true.

14
00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:57,120
Speaker 1: It is not how it works. Actually, from what I

15
00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 1: saw was Adam Rake throwing his weight around and getting

16
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:05,480
Speaker 1: his wife what I remember what? Well, listen, this is

17
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:07,959
Speaker 1: the thing is James co walked around and said, I

18
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 1: got my podcast. That seems a little more accurate. Actually

19
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:15,319
Speaker 1: said excuse me, and he goes, yeah, I go, am

20
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:17,759
Speaker 1: I on that and they got no because they they

21
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 1: were making me like listen, it's not like I was

22
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,959
Speaker 1: their first choice. M j D canceled and then they're like,

23
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 1: all right, okay, Like Rank looks really sad sitting over

24
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:30,039
Speaker 1: there in the corner. He just he just seems like

25
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 1: the kid who has left out, Like I. I was

26
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:36,800
Speaker 1: the Curtis Painter of the Fantasy podcast. Curtis pain that

27
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 1: you came to the podcast wearing an NFL shield polo

28
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 1: as well. So he was like really giddy, trying to

29
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:44,920
Speaker 1: be a team player. Right, I had an NFL balloon

30
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 1: right tied to my chair. All right, listen, we got

31
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 1: a big show in front of us today. We're gonna

32
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 1: be talking about a f C Fantasy training camp, battles

33
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 1: that we have to watch, We're gonna get to your

34
00:01:56,560 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 1: mail back questions, and of course week two, well, our

35
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 1: daily depths, we're gonna have plenty of those as well.

36
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 1: But four now are very top headlines. And we start

37
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,600
Speaker 1: in Houston, where Arian Foster suffered a major growing injury

38
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,520
Speaker 1: and is gonna miss at least the first half of

39
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 1: the season. That according to NFL media insider Ian Rappaport.

40
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 1: The initial Foster injury was first reported by ESPN Monday,

41
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:31,800
Speaker 1: but the severity was not known until today, that is Tuesday.

42
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 1: Foster eight years old. He's missed eleven games over the

43
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 1: last two years. Last year, though, despite missing games sixteen

44
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 1: hundred yards just about thirteen touchdowns, he was the number

45
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:48,239
Speaker 1: five fantasy running back. This, my friends, is huge news.

46
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,360
Speaker 1: What do we make of the Foster injury? Adam rik

47
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 1: I was not well. I was stunned because I was

48
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 1: putting together my top one list and trying to figure

49
00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 1: out where Arian Foster was gonna make figure into the mix.

50
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 1: I was a little skeptical of him because, as you said,

51
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 1: he's missed a lot of games over the course of

52
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 1: his career, and I really didn't want to go all

53
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 1: in on him, especially with so many great receivers. And

54
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,959
Speaker 1: obviously now he goes way down and that the big

55
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 1: decision is what do you do with him? Does he

56
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: burn up a roster spot for you for ten weeks?

57
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:19,959
Speaker 1: And we were talking about this earlier off the air,

58
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 1: and is it gonna be a situation like last year

59
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 1: where everybody was holding onto Josh Gordon? Right? Are you

60
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 1: just gonna hold onto him and hope that he's gonna

61
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 1: come out and not only play in the two fifteen

62
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:33,080
Speaker 1: season but that he's gonna be good enough to make

63
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 1: it worth your while down the stretch run. That to

64
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 1: me is a huge one. And what was I saying

65
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 1: last year about Josh I wasn't high on him because look,

66
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,120
Speaker 1: it's a I think it's it's a disrespect to the

67
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 1: NFL players to basically say, look, I can miss ten games.

68
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 1: I can miss ten weeks and come back and still

69
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 1: play at a high level. No, you can't. You gotta practice,

70
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 1: you gotta hard from what we're told. Like I see

71
00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 1: some of the guys walking around the studios, like really,

72
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: like that's NFL player. Okay, alright now I would have

73
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 1: just applied myself. I have I could have like I

74
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 1: don't know, have you seen Maurice Jones Drew walking around

75
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 1: the halls? Okay, he's you know, he is jacked. He's jacked.

76
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 1: But like Taylor, I'm like, last trick I go, I

77
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 1: could probably have you shaken. I have you shook Taylor's hand? Right,

78
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:24,280
Speaker 1: he's gotta help because he dropped it. And also and also,

79
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:26,840
Speaker 1: can you run a four three forty? That's really what

80
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:32,159
Speaker 1: it comes down to, is that required generally recommended. I can't.

81
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 1: I there's not like is there an NFL equivalent of

82
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:38,400
Speaker 1: just shooting threes and pickup basketball? I would like a

83
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:43,360
Speaker 1: long snapper. I I saw David Been in person one time.

84
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,839
Speaker 1: I felt like, you know, I could do that. Okay, alright,

85
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,279
Speaker 1: quite the tank, Yeah exactly. Marcu's great talked to me

86
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 1: your take on the Aryan Foster injury. Um, you know,

87
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,839
Speaker 1: I know that you were, James a little bit wary

88
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 1: of a little You're a lot wary my thing when

89
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,479
Speaker 1: they're Foster had been all last year, even though he

90
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:06,120
Speaker 1: played in quite a few games that every week it

91
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,039
Speaker 1: was that game time. And so now you just wonder

92
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 1: how much of this is caught up to him. And

93
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 1: I went back and looked, and last five seasons, he

94
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 1: has the second most total touches of anybody in the

95
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 1: NFL over fifteen fifty six. To be exact, the only

96
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 1: person who had more total tuxes was Lashawn McCoy. The

97
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 1: only person with more carries in that stretch was Marshawn Lynch.

98
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 1: So you just wonder whether or not it's caught up

99
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 1: to a guy who's twenty nine years old, who has

100
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:32,919
Speaker 1: has done a lot of work and his you know,

101
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,359
Speaker 1: he's taking some hits so now you look at it,

102
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 1: and last year I said I wouldn't touch Josh Gordon's

103
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,760
Speaker 1: suspension was more than the six or seven games. It was.

104
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 1: I let it alone. Now, with Arian Foster not coming

105
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:46,600
Speaker 1: back potentially till week ten, I'm not doing anything with him.

106
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:50,039
Speaker 1: I'm gonna let him be someone else's headache. Whiz if

107
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 1: Foster's around, let's say eleventh round. No, I'm not doing

108
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,599
Speaker 1: it either the ten games, because we keep throwing around

109
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 1: that number to explain it. Uh, it seems like Foster's

110
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 1: headed for the I are designated to return list, which

111
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,040
Speaker 1: put him on I R. But they can bring him back,

112
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:06,040
Speaker 1: they'll have to waive somebody else in mid season. He

113
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 1: can't come back until after week eight. Um, and the

114
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 1: Texans have a buy in week nine, so that steals

115
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,320
Speaker 1: another week of production from you with him, and he's

116
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 1: there in week ten. For me, even if it's round eleven,

117
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:18,840
Speaker 1: maybe I don't know, round fifteen. I would much rather

118
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 1: take a shot on a guy that could turn into

119
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:23,160
Speaker 1: a Jeremy Hill or Nodell Beckham. And maybe they're not

120
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,040
Speaker 1: going to play for the first four weeks or something.

121
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 1: But if they're gonna give me a bigger return of

122
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 1: my investment or have a potential earlier in the season.

123
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 1: I'd rather use the roster spot on that guy and

124
00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:33,480
Speaker 1: and try my luck with Foster on the waivers like

125
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 1: week six, once he starts practicing again. It sounds like

126
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 1: he's talking about Todd Gurley like I was a very

127
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 1: good point you, Like I would. I would take the

128
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,159
Speaker 1: chance on Todd Gurley hoping he's gonna miss just six

129
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:46,080
Speaker 1: games as opposed to Foster, who's going to be missing

130
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 1: an extend right or Davante Parker or any of these

131
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 1: people that might be coming in with a nagging injury

132
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:52,039
Speaker 1: and hope to bank on them getting back and in

133
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 1: shape sooner than Foster waiting till week ten. Well, and

134
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 1: that's the thing too, you know, you think about when

135
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 1: the fantasy playoffs are well, if he comes back in

136
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,120
Speaker 1: week ten, how many weeks you got two weeks of

137
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,920
Speaker 1: regular season play basically before you hit the fantasy playoffs,

138
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:06,119
Speaker 1: and you're gonna be I mean, bench spots in fantasy, man,

139
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 1: especially if fantasy football are so valuable to just be

140
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,320
Speaker 1: using that up with an anchor like Eric, I just

141
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,240
Speaker 1: don't see it, man. I'm with all you guys, I

142
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 1: just don't see drafting him at any price. Maybe maybe

143
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 1: fift round maybe, but I figured somebody else is gonna

144
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,000
Speaker 1: be taken a flyer on him. By the way, this

145
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 1: is our yearly reminder. This is why you wait to

146
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 1: have your drafts. This is why you don't draft. And yes,

147
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 1: yes that now, I I I understand where you're coming from.

148
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 1: But doesn't that make it more enjoyable? Like if you

149
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 1: not if you're the guy with But that's that's like

150
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:44,280
Speaker 1: real football. I think a lot of us do it

151
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 1: because we want to be into the like real foot.

152
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,680
Speaker 1: Now you gotta scramble. Am I gonna pick up Freddie Blue?

153
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:50,239
Speaker 1: What am I gonna am? I? Who am I looking

154
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 1: for on the waiver wire? You know? And it's also

155
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 1: cool too because we don't know who's gonna win these

156
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 1: camp battles, and it's easy to be like, well, I'll

157
00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 1: just I'll just see who wins the Falcons running back.

158
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:05,640
Speaker 1: Oh dude, you pick you Listen, you watch college football?

159
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 1: You see who? You give a guess is it gonna

160
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:09,600
Speaker 1: be Coleman or is it gonna be DeVante? I know

161
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 1: last year I would have picked DeVante Freeman, and I

162
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 1: would have eaten it. But you know that's why that

163
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 1: is kind of the fun though of doing one in July,

164
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 1: because you're like, you really have to, you really have

165
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 1: to pay attention. Well, it's also it also speaks to

166
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 1: if you have a draft. That's why you're very prejudicial

167
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 1: against older players, Like if you had a draft tomorrow,

168
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:31,200
Speaker 1: there's no way I'm taking guys like Andrea Johnson. Frank,

169
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:32,840
Speaker 1: I just don't do it, you know what I mean.

170
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:36,120
Speaker 1: I slide those guys way down the draft board. Um,

171
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:41,959
Speaker 1: let's start. Let's talk about Marteos Bryant questions, Um, does

172
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:45,040
Speaker 1: that make you more worried about Marshawn Lynch considering how

173
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 1: much he's run over? I know I predicted it last

174
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:49,560
Speaker 1: year and was completely wrong. Yeah, I did as well.

175
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:53,559
Speaker 1: I was on that bandwagon and we just completely well.

176
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 1: I totally wore that whiffed on that one. But this year,

177
00:08:57,920 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 1: do you look at it again? You're like, um, I

178
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,599
Speaker 1: would guess know because he's a cowbart. James co is

179
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 1: a blind spot for all Cowberts. I do. I do,

180
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 1: Although you know, Marcus you brought that list. You also

181
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:10,320
Speaker 1: mentioned Lashawn McCoy. There's another guy. A lot of folks

182
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,520
Speaker 1: have a lot of question marks about heavy usage as well. Uh,

183
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 1: you know you mentioned Arian Foster, Marshawn Lynch, Lashawn McCoy.

184
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 1: Those are the three guys, three stars, three guys you

185
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:22,280
Speaker 1: can take in the first round, have huge question marks

186
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 1: and really could basically up end your season should one

187
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 1: of these guys suffer an injury. All right, we move

188
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 1: on to Pittsburgh markt Tavis Bryant had elbow surgery Sunday

189
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 1: to clean up an infection in his elbow. Bryant is

190
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:37,520
Speaker 1: expected to miss less than two weeks. Possibly a bigger

191
00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 1: story though, though, is that big Ben Ben Roethlisberger told

192
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:46,480
Speaker 1: Sirius x M NFL Radio that he believes Marcus Wheaton

193
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 1: will be the quote breakout player of the year. What

194
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 1: do we make of these comments? Whizz will start with you.

195
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,439
Speaker 1: I think for right now they're just comments. I mean,

196
00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:59,959
Speaker 1: we've heard a lot of smoke being blown about Mark

197
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 1: Sweeten this offseason. A lot of the coaches, apparently the

198
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 1: reporters said, uh, told them that Marcus Wheaton had the

199
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 1: best camp on the best offseason so far out of everybody.

200
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 1: But if we're looking at these things, mean Martavis Bryant

201
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,280
Speaker 1: is the side speed freak who's been progressing and who

202
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 1: actually produced on the field even in limited opportunities last year.

203
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna wait and see. With Marcus Wheaton, I

204
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:22,760
Speaker 1: don't think he's that great of a player. I feel

205
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:25,080
Speaker 1: like it's more just Roethlisberger trying to pump up his

206
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 1: own guy and get a motivate and be like, yeah, man,

207
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 1: you can do this. But if I'm putting my chips

208
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,839
Speaker 1: behind anybody in the offense, it's gonna be Bryant. Might

209
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 1: be true. I've seen a lot of You've seen Adam.

210
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 1: I know you've seen a lot of Oregon State football.

211
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:38,439
Speaker 1: You know it reminds me of Oregon State in general. Okay,

212
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,800
Speaker 1: every year everybody talks up Oregon. Watch watched the Beavers

213
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 1: this year? Man, this, this is there, and every year

214
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,679
Speaker 1: they disappointed. Of course, Mike Riley has gone on too Nebraska.

215
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 1: Those people and Lincoln will learn that lesson shots fired,

216
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 1: shots shots fired. It's just telling the facts like that.

217
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,280
Speaker 1: The truth is my ultimate defense on that one. The

218
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 1: thing is, I agree with alex As. You just want

219
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 1: to motivate one of your teammates, and you see somebody

220
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:06,560
Speaker 1: who has that rare blend of size and speed and

221
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 1: all the all the gifts and all the tools. Who

222
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 1: is not putting it together that you've got to give

223
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,199
Speaker 1: him a little bit of a boot, like hey man,

224
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:16,959
Speaker 1: Like it's probably frustrating for somebody like Ben Roethlisberger and

225
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 1: a lot of the Steelers management and coaches to see

226
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,720
Speaker 1: somebody who could be so good, like he should be

227
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:25,960
Speaker 1: a superstar. If you've watched him and for any length

228
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 1: of time, you look at him and you're like, why

229
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 1: is this guy not better than he is? And I

230
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,680
Speaker 1: just suspect that's what the Steelers are trying to coax

231
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,600
Speaker 1: out him him with all these reports. Why why are

232
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:37,960
Speaker 1: we talking about Marta or Marcus Wheaton Like he's been

233
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 1: in the league for eight years, You talked about him

234
00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 1: like personal in the league forever and just hasn't put

235
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 1: it again. This is his third year, right right. And

236
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 1: you know, on the one hand, we sit there and

237
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,680
Speaker 1: we talk about smaller wide receivers like John Brown and

238
00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:50,320
Speaker 1: Brandon Cooks and what they could do, and now all

239
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 1: of a sudden, like now the small guy in Pittsburgh

240
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:55,840
Speaker 1: with this great quarterback in this fantastic offense can't potentially

241
00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 1: produced and I, you know, I originally thought when we

242
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 1: talked about this story that this was a Ben Roethlisberger's

243
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 1: smoke screen, like an adda boy you can get him.

244
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:06,319
Speaker 1: And then I started to look around and I thought,

245
00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 1: you know, I feel like we're not talking about this

246
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 1: offense the same way we're talking about the Colts offense,

247
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:12,719
Speaker 1: in the sense that we look at the Colts, we

248
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 1: look at t Y Hilton and Andre Johnson and Philip

249
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 1: dor and you like, there's so many mouths to feed, right,

250
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:21,280
Speaker 1: there are a lot of mouse to feed in Pittsburgh. Mean,

251
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,200
Speaker 1: we know Antonio Brown is gonna get his We know

252
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 1: Levian Bell after his suspense, is gonna come back. He's

253
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 1: gonna get his carries. He's gonna get his targets as well.

254
00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 1: You still have you know, between Martevis Bryant and Marcus

255
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 1: Wheaton Heath Miller, you've got a lot of mouths to sure.

256
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:38,120
Speaker 1: And I don't see why Marcus Wheaton can't can't prosper.

257
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:40,559
Speaker 1: Let let this man be great. He had more targets,

258
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:42,680
Speaker 1: he had more receptions, he had more yards than Martevis

259
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:44,640
Speaker 1: bryan Now all of a sudden, it's like, isn't that

260
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,199
Speaker 1: the crazy, right, that's the crazy. But also played in

261
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 1: a lot more games they played in one he played, okay,

262
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 1: played five more games, six more games. I mean he

263
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 1: played sixteen games supposed to ten. I mean it wasn't

264
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,839
Speaker 1: like it was like Martvis Bryant played four games and

265
00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 1: all of a sudden had these phenomenal numbers. I will

266
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 1: say this, if you look at the roles that these

267
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:04,240
Speaker 1: guys play on on the Steelers, Marcus Wheaton is that

268
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 1: classic slant guy. He he can he can take a

269
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 1: slant and he can go. Man. He was highly productive

270
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 1: at Oregon State. You say he's got all the tools,

271
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,320
Speaker 1: and that's again from watching him play college ball, torching

272
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 1: teams like Cal, torching teams like USC. Sorry Marcus, but

273
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:24,800
Speaker 1: it's true. But it's true. The guy's got skills, man.

274
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:26,960
Speaker 1: And and you look at what he is next to

275
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown. He seems to be a nice piece next

276
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 1: to Antonio Brown. The reason I'm not as high on

277
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:34,840
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown as a lot of folks are. And I

278
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:37,960
Speaker 1: know in this room, I'm in the vocal minority. I

279
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,400
Speaker 1: get it. Antonio Brown, fantastic player. He's gonna put up stats. Okay,

280
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 1: I get you. But he's not gonna put up what

281
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:45,720
Speaker 1: he put up last year. And a big part of

282
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:49,040
Speaker 1: that for me is because Martavis Bryant is gonna be

283
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 1: stealing a lot of looks on the other side. There

284
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 1: these guys are gonna be running on the outside. There's

285
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,960
Speaker 1: gotta be someone inside, in the middle, underneath. And I

286
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:01,440
Speaker 1: think that guy could be Marcus Wheaton. You know, I

287
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 1: hear Ben Roethlisberger talking about this, and if he does

288
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 1: have a little bit of, you know, a little bit

289
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 1: of a man crush or a little chemistry with Marcus Wheat,

290
00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:13,320
Speaker 1: he could produce. You know, I could see Marcus Wheat

291
00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:16,400
Speaker 1: and being a fourteen fifteen round guy and sitting him

292
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,560
Speaker 1: on your bench and watching him actually do some things,

293
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 1: especially in a PPR league. I'd rather hold on to

294
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 1: Arian Foster. I think I'd actually be with Rank on

295
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 1: that over He's he's gonna bum you out. You know what,

296
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 1: you you're a Dodgers fan. I don't want to. I

297
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 1: don't want to. I don't want to pull back the

298
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:37,320
Speaker 1: current to remember ishmael Valdez because it sounds like the

299
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 1: same thing that used to say about him, like he's

300
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,680
Speaker 1: still a young guy, he's still got you're like he

301
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 1: was like forty, Like, hey, look I still got time.

302
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:49,920
Speaker 1: I would actually prepare maybe more to that. I think

303
00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,720
Speaker 1: you're thinking more of Darren Dryfort maybe perhaps uh you

304
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 1: know Dryfort shocker. Al Right, when we go to Green Bay,

305
00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:01,160
Speaker 1: can Richard Rogers be a quote top level talent at

306
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 1: tight end? That's exactly what Packers assistant Jerry Fontano told

307
00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 1: the Green Bay Press Gazette. Uh, second year guy out

308
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 1: of that he started really building a nice chemistry with

309
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:16,520
Speaker 1: unrelated Aaron Rodgers late last year. He's aren't starting snaps

310
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:19,680
Speaker 1: in practicing and training cap man. We watch him run

311
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 1: some routes. We watch him with some sticky hands at

312
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 1: least on the very few highlights, and he doesn't have

313
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 1: many highlights, let be honest here, but on the few

314
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,480
Speaker 1: highlights we've seen, it looks like a pretty good tight end.

315
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,880
Speaker 1: We will go to the resident Wisconsin native, I think

316
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:38,680
Speaker 1: so to talk to me a little bit about Richard Rodgers.

317
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,320
Speaker 1: What what are we to make of these comments? Um?

318
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, they're the biggest thing. Like we

319
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:45,880
Speaker 1: talked about the mouths to feed in the Green Bay offense.

320
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,280
Speaker 1: Is are there going to be enough opportunities for him.

321
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 1: We know what Todd are gonna go to Randall Cobb

322
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 1: and Jordy Nelson, Eddie Lacey's gonna get catches out of backfield.

323
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 1: Everybody's talking him Vante Adams. Things working in Richard rodgers

324
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:59,160
Speaker 1: favor are that Corlis got into Andrew Corlis tight Dan

325
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 1: got into trouble that season and Rogers really really started

326
00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 1: to get a rapport with the other Rodgers. At the

327
00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:05,160
Speaker 1: end of the last season. Most of his catches came

328
00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 1: in the second half. He had a good run in

329
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:10,120
Speaker 1: the postseason, and um, he was drafted as a pass

330
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 1: catching tight end, so he's getting developing those parts of

331
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:15,480
Speaker 1: his game. I like him as a as a flyer late.

332
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:17,400
Speaker 1: I know you do as your as your cowboy, but

333
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 1: if you're gonna go with two tight ends or try

334
00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:21,360
Speaker 1: and play matchups, why not get one of Aaron Rodgers

335
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:23,800
Speaker 1: targets and hope for the best. And doesn't Aaron Rodgers

336
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 1: seem narcissistic enough that he would want to throw it

337
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:29,600
Speaker 1: to a guy named Rogers Just he's just so self

338
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 1: satisfied all the time. He's like Rogers, because what are

339
00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 1: you talking about? It? It's the Bears fans. This is

340
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 1: why what is what was that music for? This is

341
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 1: why you're the fantasy? Hell? Is this? No? People? Are

342
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:46,520
Speaker 1: we still? I forget because sometimes I get in a

343
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 1: room where people I think that Rogers is a good guy.

344
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 1: Oh wow, Okay, Oh, I don't mean it in a

345
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 1: bad way. I guess I just a fantasy morals past.

346
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 1: I just don't think I could free friends with Rodgers.

347
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 1: Will you just give me a take on Richard Rogers?

348
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:09,320
Speaker 1: I think it's great. I'm kind of with Alex where

349
00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:11,439
Speaker 1: if you're drafting him late, if you're taking a flyer

350
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:15,359
Speaker 1: on somebody, sure, why not. I just wonder how much

351
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:17,680
Speaker 1: he's going to work into the offense this year. I mean,

352
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:21,159
Speaker 1: what you look at what Corless and Rodgers did combine

353
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,320
Speaker 1: last year, it wasn't really far off from what Eddie

354
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 1: Lacey did as a pass catcher last year. So it

355
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:28,280
Speaker 1: just makes you wonder if all of a sudden, can

356
00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:30,800
Speaker 1: you count on him to have this big explosion this year?

357
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:32,680
Speaker 1: And I'm not really banking on but I think the

358
00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 1: bottom line is um tight end his position that's heavily

359
00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:38,159
Speaker 1: touchdown dependent. Doesn't matter who you are. I mean, you

360
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:41,240
Speaker 1: could beat Jimmy Graham. You're still very touchdown dependent. Um,

361
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:43,440
Speaker 1: maybe maybe a little less so for Jimmy Graham. But

362
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:45,399
Speaker 1: the bottom line is, you know, you gotta catch some

363
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:48,719
Speaker 1: touchdowns to be productive and fantasy for a tight end

364
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:50,320
Speaker 1: because you're not gonna get that many yard So we

365
00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:53,760
Speaker 1: talk about the limited number of opportunities, not quite as concerned,

366
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 1: especially at the tight end position. I could see him

367
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 1: having a Dwayne Allen type season. I don't think that's

368
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:01,119
Speaker 1: too far off. I could see him haveing putting up

369
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:04,879
Speaker 1: you know, seven hundred yards, six seven, eight touchdowns. I

370
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:07,320
Speaker 1: don't think that's bad. If you take Richard Rodgers in

371
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:11,440
Speaker 1: the fifteenth round, you've lost nothing, You've lost absolutely nothing.

372
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 1: There's gonna be five or six guys those kind of numbers.

373
00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 1: He's one. He is one of my He's one of

374
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,560
Speaker 1: my sleeper specials. And we're gonna get to the to

375
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:24,240
Speaker 1: the other guy, um in Virgil Green later, but but yes,

376
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,199
Speaker 1: one of those two guys I'm gonna be drafting in

377
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:29,440
Speaker 1: all formats. All right, let's talk about your top a

378
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,440
Speaker 1: f C fantasy training camp and battles to watch. Uh,

379
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:34,320
Speaker 1: we might as well hit it. Let's talk about the

380
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:38,399
Speaker 1: Broncos tight end position. Owen Daniels versus Virgil Green. I'm

381
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:40,639
Speaker 1: big on Virgial Green this year because he's still a

382
00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 1: relative unknown. The masses don't know a whole heck of

383
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 1: a lot about Virgil Green. Let me tell you a

384
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:50,600
Speaker 1: little something about six five ran a very good four

385
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:56,240
Speaker 1: six forty. He has a forty two inch vertical and

386
00:18:56,280 --> 00:19:00,360
Speaker 1: he also played college ball with with Colin Kaepernick at

387
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:04,480
Speaker 1: the University of Nevada. But he is an excellent athlete.

388
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:08,080
Speaker 1: I know Owen Daniels knows the system a bit, but man,

389
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:11,439
Speaker 1: I'm putting all my chips behind Virtual Green. Am I crazy? No,

390
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:14,920
Speaker 1: not at all, Owen Daniels, just because of the familiarity,

391
00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 1: not only with the offense, but I think for fantasy

392
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:20,000
Speaker 1: enthusiasts as they're going through their draft, there's a name

393
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:21,600
Speaker 1: they know. It's like you're in a you're in a

394
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:24,160
Speaker 1: town you've never been in before. You see McDonald's. You're like, Okay,

395
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 1: at least I know what I'm getting, right say. It's

396
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 1: like every once in a while you gotta you know what,

397
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go hit the greasy spoon, go see what

398
00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 1: that place. You could be stumbling into one of the

399
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:35,480
Speaker 1: greatest places of all time, and that's what could happen here.

400
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:38,440
Speaker 1: I like the athleticism, and as you said, we're you're

401
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:42,199
Speaker 1: basically banking on touchdowns at the tight end position, and

402
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 1: this is an athletic guy who can go up and

403
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 1: get the ball. I'll take my chances with him and

404
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:50,399
Speaker 1: instead of Owen Daniels, who might be might be on

405
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,200
Speaker 1: the downside of his career. And then that's a bold

406
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:57,480
Speaker 1: state going out on a limb, Adam Rank, Marcus Grant,

407
00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:00,399
Speaker 1: I mean, look, am I crazy and making compare Arrison's

408
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:04,359
Speaker 1: between Virgil Green and Julius Thomas. Yeah, because they were

409
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:06,200
Speaker 1: in the roster at the same time. And if he's

410
00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:07,800
Speaker 1: all this green and all this, you know, if he

411
00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 1: had all this athleticism was so great, why is it

412
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:11,720
Speaker 1: that he didn't beat out Julius Thomas when they were

413
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:13,639
Speaker 1: basically coming into the league at the same time. I

414
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:15,919
Speaker 1: mean they were on equal footing at some point and

415
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 1: Thomas surged ahead. So I mean, yeah, yeah, yeah, fair enough,

416
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,240
Speaker 1: fair enough. What do you think about this? Uh? This

417
00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:28,280
Speaker 1: battle here? Who who's got the leg up? In your mind? Alex,

418
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's not a great battle. I'm not

419
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:32,760
Speaker 1: too keen to known Daniels. He said, he's he's older.

420
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 1: Virgil Green has some some chances. Does anybody else remember

421
00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,439
Speaker 1: when we were talking about Virgil Green's athleticism, that they

422
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:40,679
Speaker 1: ran a couple of tight end draws out of the

423
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,560
Speaker 1: backfield to Virgil Green a couple of years, he had

424
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:48,520
Speaker 1: two carries for three yards. Last season very effect scratched

425
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:51,480
Speaker 1: the tight end draw. But he's he's a young guy.

426
00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:54,960
Speaker 1: Oh no, yeah, it's quite acting like he's eight. Actually

427
00:20:56,960 --> 00:21:02,479
Speaker 1: he's actually not that. Listen, he's just been he's just

428
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:06,359
Speaker 1: been in there for five years. Why are we condemning

429
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:11,400
Speaker 1: this who's just finding his Alright, another FC training cab

430
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,840
Speaker 1: battle that we're all looking at. Um. It's always interesting

431
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,159
Speaker 1: to talk about running back battles. And we'll start in

432
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:20,560
Speaker 1: Cleveland Brown's running back battle. Isaiah crow Well, will the

433
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:24,359
Speaker 1: Crow fly free? Or is it Terrence West last year's

434
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:28,479
Speaker 1: third round draft pick or is it this year's early

435
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:30,760
Speaker 1: round draft pick in Duke Johnson. Where did Duke Johnson

436
00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,160
Speaker 1: get drafted first round? He was in a first round

437
00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 1: third rounder? So another third rounder in Duke Johnson. So

438
00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:40,720
Speaker 1: Isaiah crow Well, Terrence West, Duke Johnson. Alex will start

439
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 1: with you Well this battle is just disgusting to follow.

440
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,520
Speaker 1: Right now, in training camp, his first we heard LaRence

441
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:50,200
Speaker 1: West wasn't gonna get any starting reps, and he leads

442
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:53,200
Speaker 1: the starting repsonees. Now we're hearing from ESPN that he's

443
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:56,119
Speaker 1: on thin ice because of maturity and weight issues. And

444
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,800
Speaker 1: now Duke Johnson's got a hamstring injury that might keep

445
00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:00,560
Speaker 1: him up for two weeks. So I think the one,

446
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,359
Speaker 1: if you're gonna, you know, look at anybody and like

447
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 1: those middle rounds, first on the list should be crow

448
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 1: L because he's got a nose for the end zone

449
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:09,640
Speaker 1: and he was on film looked like the most effective

450
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:11,800
Speaker 1: running back out of that group. But man, there's going

451
00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:13,360
Speaker 1: to be production to be had out of this group.

452
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:16,760
Speaker 1: But this might be the most frustrating fantasy backfield, I

453
00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 1: would agree Marcus Grant. I feel like this is about arguing,

454
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:21,800
Speaker 1: like what is the tastiest brand of mayonnaise? I mean,

455
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:25,000
Speaker 1: it's just none, right, It's just like, at the end

456
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:26,760
Speaker 1: of the day, you might pick one, but nine of them,

457
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:28,639
Speaker 1: none of them to treat you. Am I am I

458
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:31,920
Speaker 1: the only I'm offended by that. I love Mayo. No,

459
00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:35,080
Speaker 1: it's disgusting. I mean O j O J Mayo. It's

460
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 1: about the only Mayo I can get behind. Oh stop it?

461
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,639
Speaker 1: How wait, how about if we called it a L. No,

462
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:44,320
Speaker 1: we're still not We're still not on board. I don't

463
00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 1: like eggs personally, well, and it's not a People always

464
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:49,520
Speaker 1: get upset when I tell them I don't like eggs

465
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:51,439
Speaker 1: or like, how dare I'm like, it's not like I

466
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,840
Speaker 1: chose it. It's not taking a moral stand against eggs.

467
00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:58,320
Speaker 1: I'm just physically repulsed. But believe me, I think would

468
00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,720
Speaker 1: be easier if I like Brown running back battle. I

469
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:03,680
Speaker 1: mean I think crow Oh wins it. I think he's

470
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:06,119
Speaker 1: I mean, as as you know, we talked to Albert

471
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:09,640
Speaker 1: brier On on the I t C Fantasy Spotlights. Right

472
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:12,200
Speaker 1: uh you know you mentioned that right now, Crowls in

473
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,560
Speaker 1: the league simping because he's the one who's there. I mean,

474
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,360
Speaker 1: with West heard with Duke Johnson being held out, he's

475
00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 1: in the lead. But when the season starts, you know

476
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 1: they're gonna run a couple of three guys through there.

477
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,400
Speaker 1: It'll be crow L, it'll be Duke Johnson. Who knows

478
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:26,680
Speaker 1: they may try to re get bent take. So where

479
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:31,440
Speaker 1: do you take a guy like Isaiah crow Well, where

480
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 1: do you take a guy like Duke Johnson, Because here's

481
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:37,120
Speaker 1: the thing, Duke Johnson may very well win the starting

482
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:41,600
Speaker 1: running back position later in the week three, week ten.

483
00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:43,760
Speaker 1: I'm not exactly sure, but Duke Johnson certainly has a

484
00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 1: talent to be a starter. But I mean, if you're

485
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,359
Speaker 1: talking about waiting until week ten for him to get

486
00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:50,159
Speaker 1: the starting job, I mean, I I don't think I

487
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,560
Speaker 1: would go after Duke Johnson before round like eight, maybe nine.

488
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:57,560
Speaker 1: How about Isaiah crow probably six or seven. So I

489
00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:00,399
Speaker 1: just I'm not inspired by what we're seeing out of

490
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,240
Speaker 1: Isaiah crowl And it kind of reminds me of the

491
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:06,240
Speaker 1: Ravens situation last year where they had who is the

492
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:12,239
Speaker 1: curtain jerk of the head like Bernard? They had all

493
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:14,280
Speaker 1: those guys in front of him and you're looking at him,

494
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 1: and none of them were inspiring much confidence. But justin foresaid,

495
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 1: you knew at some point when he was gonna get

496
00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:21,840
Speaker 1: an opportunity, he was going to go out and play

497
00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:25,720
Speaker 1: pretty well. You know why, dude. That's the thing about

498
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:29,879
Speaker 1: the cow running backs. I'm not even going okay, I

499
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 1: will see this if you look over and under understandably

500
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:36,639
Speaker 1: right now, the co uh, the Browns coaching staff are

501
00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,040
Speaker 1: pretty disappointed that Duke Johnson is not on the field.

502
00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:41,520
Speaker 1: But you know what, it's the early part of auguste

503
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:45,160
Speaker 1: and I know this is gonna be the unfair comparison forever.

504
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:47,960
Speaker 1: No Like, hey, Odell Odell Beckham Jr. Didn't play it.

505
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 1: It's like nobody needs to play in August ever again.

506
00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 1: But right now it looks bad for Duke Johnson, But

507
00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:56,120
Speaker 1: I feel like once you get into week three, he's

508
00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:57,680
Speaker 1: gonna be the guy that you want. So when you're

509
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:01,640
Speaker 1: in your draft, when you're choosing, you're running. But I'm

510
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:04,359
Speaker 1: trying to think I have Isaiah crow L somewhere like

511
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:06,760
Speaker 1: probably in the seventies or eighties, like in the top

512
00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:08,639
Speaker 1: one hundred where you're looking at it, You're like, I

513
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:11,280
Speaker 1: might as well pick another receiver, weigh a round her two,

514
00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 1: and then go after Duke Johnson because I feel like

515
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 1: a month into the season, I'm gonna be much more

516
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:20,159
Speaker 1: happy with that selection. Would you like, Duke is a

517
00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:22,679
Speaker 1: good draft price for him? The eighth round? Is that

518
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:25,679
Speaker 1: a good draft price for him? We're pushing it, okay,

519
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,440
Speaker 1: And it depends on the availability of who else is

520
00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:31,200
Speaker 1: out there or draft is going. But yeah, that's when

521
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,440
Speaker 1: I just start throwing Haymakers. That's when I'm like, I'm

522
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,720
Speaker 1: just swinging so to round. You're super comp I absolutely

523
00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:42,280
Speaker 1: I have round a good grade. I don't mind it. Yeah, sure,

524
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:45,960
Speaker 1: a lot of confidence in endorsed. I said yes in

525
00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 1: the eighth d that's not a lot of confidence though

526
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 1: in the Cleveland bad You know the thing I think

527
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:55,359
Speaker 1: about the Cleveland backfield though, that scares me Charence West.

528
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:58,359
Speaker 1: They did invest a third round pick on the guy.

529
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,760
Speaker 1: Are they going to really abandon Terrence West? Uh? This

530
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,480
Speaker 1: early in the process. I know generally in the NFL,

531
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 1: it's best man up. I get it. But you know what,

532
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:11,120
Speaker 1: there are financial implications in the NFL starting rosters as well.

533
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,760
Speaker 1: Any player will tell you the exact same thing. If

534
00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 1: a team investor first round draft pick, they're more invested

535
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 1: than a second round draft pick, more invested than there

536
00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:22,480
Speaker 1: So Terrence West being selected in the third round bodes

537
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:25,400
Speaker 1: well for him. I think he's still gonna get opportunities.

538
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:29,560
Speaker 1: This is a backfield man that I am just absolutely avoiding.

539
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 1: I just can't see myself drafting any But you're also

540
00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 1: talking about a franchise that's spent the first round pick

541
00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:38,560
Speaker 1: on a quarterback and they say that he is far

542
00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:40,119
Speaker 1: away from being a starter right now. I mean he

543
00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:45,280
Speaker 1: went to rehab starting Josh McCown over Johnny Manzel. And

544
00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:48,320
Speaker 1: it's not point good point, very good point. But but

545
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:50,359
Speaker 1: I will say this, I don't think Terence went West

546
00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:53,000
Speaker 1: went to to to rehab. So I think not that

547
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,080
Speaker 1: we're aware, not that we're aware. All right, let's move

548
00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:59,160
Speaker 1: on to Tennessee the Titans running back situation. This is interesting, man,

549
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 1: Bishop Saki. They spent a first round draft pick on

550
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:03,439
Speaker 1: Bishop Sank and the second second round draft pick on

551
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 1: Bishop Sanky. And here's David Cobb coming out of Minnesota

552
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:10,159
Speaker 1: and he's gonna be pushing Bishop Sanky. Bishop Sanky was

553
00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:14,399
Speaker 1: not very productive last year. Adam Rank, Where do you

554
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:17,119
Speaker 1: see this training camp battle going? I'm going with David

555
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:20,359
Speaker 1: Cobb because going into last season, we all talked about

556
00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:23,639
Speaker 1: a great link that the big thing holding back Bishop

557
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:27,160
Speaker 1: Sanky was his past protection, that it just wasn't good,

558
00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:29,640
Speaker 1: right And and at the end of the season, Pro

559
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 1: Football Focus puts out the reports of past protection amongst

560
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:36,680
Speaker 1: running backs, Sanky was near the bottom. As we expected,

561
00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:39,879
Speaker 1: and I don't expect that to improve this season. And

562
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:43,359
Speaker 1: David Cobbs got he's got some skills. He had, he

563
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:44,920
Speaker 1: had some great guy you know, we didn't get to

564
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 1: see a lot of them in Minnesota and everything like that,

565
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:50,880
Speaker 1: but he is somebody who highly productive. They're highly productive,

566
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:53,280
Speaker 1: and I think Ken wizzen Hunt is the kind of

567
00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:55,719
Speaker 1: no nonsense guy who he doesn't care where you were

568
00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:58,439
Speaker 1: drafted or anything like that. If you remember back at

569
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:02,000
Speaker 1: his career with the Ardinals, he put Matt Liner on

570
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,360
Speaker 1: the bench even though he was a high first round

571
00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:05,880
Speaker 1: draft pick. Right, I'm gonna go with the guy who

572
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:08,800
Speaker 1: can help me win again. In this instance, I expect

573
00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:11,760
Speaker 1: David Cobb to win that job and I expect him

574
00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:13,480
Speaker 1: to be the starting running back. By the way, I

575
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 1: keep forgetting to mention. We keep talking about drafting, an

576
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,639
Speaker 1: average draft price and where you should take guys. You

585
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:43,640
Speaker 1: galhar are a huge David cough fan. Has he shown anything?

586
00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:45,440
Speaker 1: I know it's very early in the process, but has

587
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,040
Speaker 1: he shown anything to you that would shake your belief

588
00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:50,440
Speaker 1: in that? Uh? No? It was funny. The first day

589
00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:52,840
Speaker 1: of Titans training camp, I saw some tweets from the

590
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,360
Speaker 1: Beat reporters saying that Cobb was getting chastised a little

591
00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:57,920
Speaker 1: bit by coaches um for messing up a few things

592
00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:00,880
Speaker 1: in past production. But I'd spread a big right up

593
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:03,360
Speaker 1: from Jim Wyatt, who writes for the Titans dot Com today,

594
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:06,080
Speaker 1: and he had said that, uh, wizen Hunt was impressed

595
00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:08,200
Speaker 1: with Cobb and said he needs to improve a couple

596
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:10,480
Speaker 1: of technique things, but his his head is there, and

597
00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:13,640
Speaker 1: uh he praised his vision and his quick feet, things

598
00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:17,080
Speaker 1: that Bishop Sanky lacked last year in you know droves.

599
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 1: So I still really love Cobb to win this backfield.

600
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:22,360
Speaker 1: I'm not alone in that, Okay, apparently you do. Daniel

601
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 1: Jeremiah are a great draft analyst here, loved Cobbs said

602
00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 1: he could be the potential offensive rookie of the year

603
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 1: in this offense. Cobb is a guy that I'm targeting

604
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:35,320
Speaker 1: a lot at the end of drafts. I mean, he's

605
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 1: I guess he's like Marcus Rider die guy, he's one

606
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:40,240
Speaker 1: of mine. Uh. I am not impressed with Bishop Sanky

607
00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:42,840
Speaker 1: of what Cobb brings the table. He's not flashy, but

608
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:44,160
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna get it done. I mean, this

609
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 1: is a team. Last year, like Bishop Sanky, it was

610
00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:47,880
Speaker 1: almost like Ken Wizon Hunt was trying to find ways

611
00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 1: to not give him carries at the end of the year.

612
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:58,800
Speaker 1: Is there is there any way that this becomes a committee?

613
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,760
Speaker 1: I mean, that's defin a possibility, but I think in

614
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:05,520
Speaker 1: the end, talent wins out and hopefully that cob rises

615
00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 1: to the top of that pot. This turns into the

616
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:09,360
Speaker 1: NBA where they're trying to tank for the top pick

617
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:16,680
Speaker 1: the bishops. Um, Marcus, is there anything to like about

618
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:20,000
Speaker 1: Bishop syanch you here? Uh? God, I feel like we're

619
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:23,480
Speaker 1: piling on the gay. Yeah. I mean, look, it's year two,

620
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:25,960
Speaker 1: you know, so, so there's always a chance that he grows,

621
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 1: that he gets a little bit better than you know,

622
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:28,960
Speaker 1: he figured out what he did wrong. So, I mean,

623
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:31,200
Speaker 1: you're sure there's always a possibility that is, but you know,

624
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:34,440
Speaker 1: obviously with what happened last year, there's no guarantee that

625
00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:36,480
Speaker 1: he jumps in and gets these carries. Can I get

626
00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:40,040
Speaker 1: a stat project projection from you in regards to David

627
00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:43,200
Speaker 1: Comb While you think about that, I just have to

628
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,440
Speaker 1: say I find it funny that the self proclaimed fantasy

629
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:49,040
Speaker 1: skeptic appears to be the fantasy optimists today. Still young,

630
00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 1: he can learn. He asked me to say something nice

631
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:59,400
Speaker 1: about Bishops trying. Alright, alright, um, if so sty projection

632
00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:02,560
Speaker 1: for David Job, I think you're looking in the area

633
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:07,880
Speaker 1: of probably seven fifty yards rushing. Uh, you know, maybe

634
00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 1: three or four touchdowns. Um, you know, I I still

635
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,000
Speaker 1: think this Titan, but that's for Sanky or for for

636
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:18,560
Speaker 1: for cop I don't I mean, honestly don't really think.

637
00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 1: I know they have a good offensive line. I don't

638
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,080
Speaker 1: think much of the Titans offense at the moment. Good point.

639
00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:24,440
Speaker 1: I think that right now this offen is gonna struggle,

640
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:26,760
Speaker 1: you know. I mean Marcus Mariotta's you know, I mean,

641
00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:28,880
Speaker 1: he's a nice piece, but they still have issues at

642
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:32,160
Speaker 1: the wide receiver position. They still have issues in the backfield, Like,

643
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:33,880
Speaker 1: I just don't think this is an offense that's going

644
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:37,000
Speaker 1: to prosper. Okay, so basically a hundred and three or

645
00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:40,840
Speaker 1: four and three or four touchdowns? Yeah, yeah, that's rough. Uh,

646
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 1: Alex Gilhard do you think that's a too conservative about all?

647
00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:47,280
Speaker 1: I would take the over. It wouldn't surprise me if

648
00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:49,040
Speaker 1: I was wrong, because Ken Wizzon Hunt has done that

649
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:51,280
Speaker 1: to us in the past. But I would take the over.

650
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:53,640
Speaker 1: Ali wasn't. Hunting needs to win a bunch of games

651
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:56,520
Speaker 1: just to protect a quarterback. So I could see him

652
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:58,360
Speaker 1: just saying, you know what, we're gonna run this. We're

653
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:01,360
Speaker 1: gonna run him about thirty times a game. Don't care

654
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:04,480
Speaker 1: about his future, but we're gonna win six games this year,

655
00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:07,640
Speaker 1: just so there's some progress so I can keep my job. Alright,

656
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 1: good point. Let's talk about the Jets backfield. Chris Ivory,

657
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:14,440
Speaker 1: Stephen Ridley, Zack Stacy, and the great bull All Powell.

658
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:18,160
Speaker 1: Is there anyone in this group, I mean, forget about

659
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:20,960
Speaker 1: who wins the starting job. Is there anyone in this

660
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:24,719
Speaker 1: group you would actually draft? Absolutely? Who's Ivory? Chris Ivory?

661
00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:28,880
Speaker 1: Take him in a heartbeat, well, what's Ivory? Yeah, like

662
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:32,960
Speaker 1: the Duke Johnson range we're taking. He's falling to like

663
00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:36,400
Speaker 1: round ten in drafts fantasy running backs. Like when you're

664
00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:38,280
Speaker 1: on a road trip and you're looking for your buddies

665
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:40,760
Speaker 1: music collection and the best CD he has is like

666
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:44,960
Speaker 1: Collective Soul. It's like, it's not offensive, It's not like

667
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,440
Speaker 1: I don't hate it. H huh. I don't really like

668
00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:51,600
Speaker 1: it either. Um, I will take any upside player over.

669
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,200
Speaker 1: What is not to like about side? Alright, give it

670
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:55,680
Speaker 1: to me. Tell me why I'm wrong. I mean, he's

671
00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:57,960
Speaker 1: he's never had more than twitter carries and he's still

672
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:01,479
Speaker 1: produced in those seasons with that over four yards per

673
00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:03,960
Speaker 1: carry average for his career, and he's gonna be playing

674
00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:06,800
Speaker 1: with the best offensive pieces around him in his career.

675
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:09,800
Speaker 1: In New York, Ridley's coming off on a c L

676
00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:13,200
Speaker 1: blow Powell. Powell and Zach Stacy got traded for basically

677
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:16,560
Speaker 1: a bag of peanuts and an expired bud Light. So

678
00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:19,280
Speaker 1: it's going to be Chris Ivory that is going to

679
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:21,920
Speaker 1: win the lead spot in this backfield and probably produce

680
00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:24,800
Speaker 1: an R B two RB three level of fantasy outpitch.

681
00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:27,800
Speaker 1: Can you can get him super late. Now you sound

682
00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:30,040
Speaker 1: like my friend trying to sell me on collective soul. Okay,

683
00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:32,400
Speaker 1: Heaven let Your Light Shine Down. It's a great song.

684
00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:37,040
Speaker 1: I've lost everyone. I'm sorry. There's there's a kid back there.

685
00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 1: He's like like, I'm sorry. It was a band from

686
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:42,920
Speaker 1: the nineties. Okay, I get it. Heaven Let Your Light

687
00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:50,480
Speaker 1: Shine Down. I was going in the nineties. Now that

688
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:54,640
Speaker 1: be too long, alright, So okay, first of all, I'm

689
00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:57,200
Speaker 1: gonna stay with stay with you, Alex Chris Ivory. Give

690
00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,880
Speaker 1: me a good draft price for him? What's his ad?

691
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,000
Speaker 1: He right now? Right now? Hold on, I think I

692
00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:04,440
Speaker 1: wrote this down is round ten? Okay, round tent. So

693
00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:06,840
Speaker 1: do you think that's a good price for I think

694
00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:09,560
Speaker 1: that's a steel Wow. Okay, that's a that's a bit

695
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:11,239
Speaker 1: of a reach for me. But tell give me a

696
00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:14,080
Speaker 1: staff projection if you think that's steel. Hold on, let

697
00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:16,000
Speaker 1: me pull up his recent numbers. I'd say he gets

698
00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:19,200
Speaker 1: in the range of like a thousand and six, you know,

699
00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:23,279
Speaker 1: maybe maybe, yeah, maybe, ish That's what I'm saying. He's

700
00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:26,160
Speaker 1: never had more than fifty three is his career high.

701
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:30,240
Speaker 1: Career high? Okay, So a thousand and six for Alex

702
00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:33,520
Speaker 1: you're gonna take You're definitely the look on Marcus face

703
00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:35,839
Speaker 1: right now, man, you're taking the under Yeah. I mean,

704
00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:40,400
Speaker 1: like my projections for for Chris Ivory are only slightly

705
00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:42,600
Speaker 1: better than what I had for David Cobb. I mean, like,

706
00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:45,440
Speaker 1: if we're not running out to get David Cobb, I'm

707
00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:47,200
Speaker 1: not going out to get Chris. I mean, he's the

708
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:50,280
Speaker 1: guy on that team that I would draft. But again,

709
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:53,440
Speaker 1: I mean he's like my fourth running back at eight

710
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:56,239
Speaker 1: with eight fifty and like, what are you thinking eight

711
00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:59,399
Speaker 1: fifty and five? I mean, a fifty five you're gonna

712
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:02,520
Speaker 1: draft this guy. I'm not drafting that dude. I mean yeah,

713
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:04,560
Speaker 1: I mean, but by the time you're drafting him, think

714
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:06,040
Speaker 1: about the running backs that are gonna be left on

715
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:09,040
Speaker 1: the board at that point. Scraps it is. It's it's

716
00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:11,400
Speaker 1: like fighting over that last little shriveled piece of pizza.

717
00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:12,960
Speaker 1: You can get a guy that was a top twenty

718
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,520
Speaker 1: back last year in a better offense, with a better

719
00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:19,160
Speaker 1: coordinator at that same price, you're gonna take Hail Mary's

720
00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:22,360
Speaker 1: on Duke Johnson maybe turning into something Week four or so.

721
00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:24,640
Speaker 1: I absolutely would do that. I'd rather take a good

722
00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:27,120
Speaker 1: handcuff if you mean Noll Davis over. It's not like

723
00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:31,120
Speaker 1: Chris Ivory's old either, like oh here it goes bringing Marx.

724
00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:38,440
Speaker 1: I don't know what do you think He's starting to

725
00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:43,440
Speaker 1: convince me because there's a second collective soul song that

726
00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:46,360
Speaker 1: I like. It's like it's like for to make it

727
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:48,880
Speaker 1: a lot recent, I would I would consider Chris Ivory

728
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:51,280
Speaker 1: like the Hubah Sank CDs that are on my shelf.

729
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:54,360
Speaker 1: I own three of them and I'm not ashamed to

730
00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:57,040
Speaker 1: admit it. Not still like Hubah Stank. They're not a

731
00:35:57,120 --> 00:36:00,680
Speaker 1: good bandl and Uba Stank. It's made the podcast. Yeah,

732
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:02,840
Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on. It's not only the

733
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:07,160
Speaker 1: fact that we're referencing these old gans's that we're talking

734
00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:10,640
Speaker 1: about c d s again. What the hell is this CD?

735
00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:13,440
Speaker 1: I had to buy the whole thing, like that's it,

736
00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:17,080
Speaker 1: That's what. Yeah, I buy one song for dollar twenty

737
00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:21,200
Speaker 1: nine and that's Heller's wrong. Let's go down to South Beach.

738
00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:24,719
Speaker 1: The Dolphins running back situation an interesting one for me.

739
00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:27,959
Speaker 1: Lamar Miller j gi e uh. There was a time

740
00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:30,400
Speaker 1: before the medicals came out, the j j I was

741
00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:35,040
Speaker 1: widely considered um a top three or four running back

742
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:40,040
Speaker 1: from college, so obviously his medicals came back not so great.

743
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:42,640
Speaker 1: I've been on record many many times saying, who really

744
00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:45,040
Speaker 1: cares about the future. Fantasy is a one season game

745
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:47,320
Speaker 1: unless you're in a keeper or whatever might be. But

746
00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:50,879
Speaker 1: I like J G I e U coming into this year.

747
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:54,480
Speaker 1: That is, until I realized that Lamar Miller is in

748
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:58,200
Speaker 1: a contract year and then through on fifteen pounds of muscle.

749
00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:01,640
Speaker 1: Now I'm torn. Now I don't what to do because

750
00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:04,759
Speaker 1: again you're talking about a guy very you know, I

751
00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:07,400
Speaker 1: love taking young guys with upside. I saw j j

752
00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:09,520
Speaker 1: I as a guy I could maybe take in the

753
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:12,440
Speaker 1: fourteenth round and then maybe see some huge profits. I

754
00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:16,440
Speaker 1: don't know, but that being said, Lamar Miller, he's starting

755
00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:17,839
Speaker 1: to grow on me. What do you mean you don't

756
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:19,840
Speaker 1: know what to do? Draft Lamar Miller? That's what you Okay.

757
00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:22,320
Speaker 1: I think it's pretty cut and dry. Alright, alright, alright,

758
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:24,839
Speaker 1: there's there's no love at all for j J I. Huh.

759
00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:26,719
Speaker 1: I like j J I a lot, but I think

760
00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:29,080
Speaker 1: this year, this year is not his year. It's Lamar

761
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:31,279
Speaker 1: Miller that, like I said in the last podcast, they're

762
00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:33,000
Speaker 1: probably gonna write him into the ground. He's gonna get

763
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:35,480
Speaker 1: more work. He's going to get himself a contract elsewhere.

764
00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:38,560
Speaker 1: He put on the muscle U Alex Galehart is very convincing.

765
00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:40,840
Speaker 1: He's a very convincing young man. My parents told me

766
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:42,120
Speaker 1: I should be a lawyer when I was a kid,

767
00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:46,440
Speaker 1: and looking at looking at the money that Ted Wells

768
00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:48,759
Speaker 1: got off of the recent NFL things working on, maybe

769
00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:51,800
Speaker 1: I should have listened, but I wouldn't be on this podcast.

770
00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:53,160
Speaker 1: I'm glad to be here with you guys. There you go.

771
00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:56,400
Speaker 1: Lamar Miller J Yeah, I know exactly. Lamar Miller. Where

772
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:58,399
Speaker 1: do you have him in your top one? And we're

773
00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:00,399
Speaker 1: we're what's a good draft price for him? I'm really

774
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:03,480
Speaker 1: excited about him and he's in my again. When I

775
00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:06,560
Speaker 1: was putting together my running back rankings, I was surprised

776
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:08,799
Speaker 1: at myself, like, gosh, am I really going to rank

777
00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:10,520
Speaker 1: him this high? Am I gonna put him way up there?

778
00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:12,800
Speaker 1: And I'm like, yeah, I feel comfortable with it. And

779
00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:15,759
Speaker 1: you know, and it's not just him. That offense is

780
00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:17,759
Speaker 1: gonna be a lot better. Ryan Tannehill one of the

781
00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:21,759
Speaker 1: most underrated quarterbacks, both in fantasy and reality They've added

782
00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:25,040
Speaker 1: a lot of good pieces. Kenny Stills stretches a defense

783
00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:27,920
Speaker 1: pretty well. I do like that Davante Parker liked him

784
00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:31,640
Speaker 1: at Louisville. If he can come back healthy and produce

785
00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:34,680
Speaker 1: a little bit, and getting rid of Mike Wallace also helps.

786
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:37,239
Speaker 1: So all those things are positive that I expect the

787
00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 1: Dolphins to go out there surprising people, both in reality

788
00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:42,120
Speaker 1: and in fantasy. By the way, can I can I

789
00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:45,000
Speaker 1: use with some breaking running back news here on the

790
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:49,120
Speaker 1: podcast are our own Rand Getlin. NFL Media's Ran Getlin

791
00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:52,759
Speaker 1: just tweeted moments ago pure Thomas is on his way

792
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:55,399
Speaker 1: to visit the Texans. Plan is for him work out

793
00:38:55,440 --> 00:39:00,600
Speaker 1: for like on Wednesday, Steven Jackson's mad at somebuddy though, well,

794
00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:02,440
Speaker 1: you should have sent up the batta and he sent

795
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:03,840
Speaker 1: it up over Dallas. He should have put it up

796
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:05,919
Speaker 1: over Houston, and he should be mad at father time

797
00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:10,600
Speaker 1: more than Pierre tom the PiZZ Cruiser maybe getting a

798
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:13,040
Speaker 1: little love in Houston. That's interesting. What's the deal with

799
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:19,759
Speaker 1: Kyrie Robinson chilling in New Orleans behind and Spiller but

800
00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:22,239
Speaker 1: nobody wants to trade for him? Like nobody's putting out

801
00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:25,320
Speaker 1: something like the NFL trades don't happen. It just seems

802
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:29,480
Speaker 1: like he's you're giddy over the baseball trade deadline that

803
00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:31,600
Speaker 1: just happened, but this doesn't. It didn't really work that

804
00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:33,880
Speaker 1: way in the NFL. It was amazed. It was pretty awesome.

805
00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:36,799
Speaker 1: So David Price is in Toronto. I want to talk

806
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:40,000
Speaker 1: about a couple of rookies, and we'll start in case

807
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:43,000
Speaker 1: the Chiefs number two receiver bat obviously, Jeremy Macklin the

808
00:39:43,120 --> 00:39:45,520
Speaker 1: number one there, but number two is up for grabs.

809
00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:48,640
Speaker 1: Albert Wilson, Chris Connelly, Jason Avanti, Anthony Thomas, all in

810
00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:52,640
Speaker 1: the mix. I've again put all my chips behind this

811
00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:56,600
Speaker 1: uber athletic freak and Chris Conley. I look at Chris Conlin.

812
00:39:56,680 --> 00:40:00,359
Speaker 1: I said, this guy can have a Martavis Bryan year

813
00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:03,840
Speaker 1: next year. He ran a four three five forty. He's fast,

814
00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:07,759
Speaker 1: he's six too, he's two fifteen, he's big. He has

815
00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:10,600
Speaker 1: a forty five inch vertical. You're telling me when you

816
00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:12,279
Speaker 1: get down into the red zone, this guy is not

817
00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:15,400
Speaker 1: gonna fight for jump balls. This guy can get up

818
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:18,160
Speaker 1: there and grab some scores. Now I get it. The

819
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:21,839
Speaker 1: running joke Casey doesn't throw to wide receivers. Alex Smith

820
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:24,440
Speaker 1: is there. Okay, alright, I get but the bottom line

821
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:27,879
Speaker 1: is a running joke when it's an actual fact, it's

822
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:32,920
Speaker 1: not an exaggeration. Did they literally not figuratively? They literally

823
00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:36,320
Speaker 1: did not throw a touchdown pass to a wide receiver

824
00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:38,960
Speaker 1: last And I get it. Jeremy Macklin's gonna look at

825
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,279
Speaker 1: some double teams. Chris Connley should see someone on one car.

826
00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:45,000
Speaker 1: I don't know, man, Look, am I projecting him to

827
00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:47,279
Speaker 1: have a huge year? No? But Martavis Bryant didn't have

828
00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:50,120
Speaker 1: a huge year last year, but he did impress in

829
00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:53,719
Speaker 1: some weeks. That's the kind of season I see for

830
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:56,520
Speaker 1: a guy like Chris Connley. Super frustrating and you'll never

831
00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:59,839
Speaker 1: know when to start. I will say this, there's gonna

832
00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:02,640
Speaker 1: be three weeks stretch while I'll start him confidently, and

833
00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:04,680
Speaker 1: I'll get two weeks of good production and I'll get

834
00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:06,480
Speaker 1: a week of horrible production. Is he gonna be one

835
00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:08,719
Speaker 1: of those daily fantasy guys you can go in and

836
00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:11,600
Speaker 1: get for a low price, maybe a little danger zone.

837
00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:13,960
Speaker 1: I like it. You know, Chris Conny's going to be

838
00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:16,200
Speaker 1: in the danger zone. This He's gonna in the danger zone.

839
00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:18,399
Speaker 1: First of all, who put Jason vant on this list.

840
00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:22,520
Speaker 1: I don't know Elves. I mean like, I mean, I

841
00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:25,120
Speaker 1: get it. We're just like going just going down the

842
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:33,560
Speaker 1: young guys to prove. I mean, you know, I will

843
00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:36,759
Speaker 1: say this, Yeah, I was after draft, I was kind

844
00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:38,680
Speaker 1: of on the Chris Connley bandwagon. I have to say

845
00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:40,920
Speaker 1: our own. Matt Harmon has kind of gotten me on

846
00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:46,360
Speaker 1: the Albert Wilson hype train. Alert just kept secret and

847
00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:48,200
Speaker 1: then Matt Harmon had to out him with his great

848
00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:51,680
Speaker 1: sophomore wide receiver series. I mean, yeah, he's as much

849
00:41:51,719 --> 00:41:53,320
Speaker 1: of a kept secret as you could have with a

850
00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:57,799
Speaker 1: chief's wide receiving corps. That was milk toasted best lest year.

851
00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:02,360
Speaker 1: So why Albert Wilson Um? I do like his athleticism.

852
00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:03,719
Speaker 1: I have been kind of been watching a little bit

853
00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:05,879
Speaker 1: of him. I I think he does some good things

854
00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:09,200
Speaker 1: on the field. And look with Jeremy Macklin there, obviously

855
00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:11,600
Speaker 1: he's going to be the primary target in that offense

856
00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:15,160
Speaker 1: with h with probably Travis Kelsey is the number two option.

857
00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:17,000
Speaker 1: I think there's a chance for a guy like that

858
00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:19,000
Speaker 1: to prosper. And I think Chris Conley maybe is a

859
00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:21,000
Speaker 1: year or so away. I think I think he's gonna

860
00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:22,640
Speaker 1: need that one year to kind of get season, to

861
00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:24,800
Speaker 1: get a little bit of experienced under his belt, whereas

862
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:27,759
Speaker 1: that Albert Wilson already has that going for him. All right,

863
00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:30,440
Speaker 1: So again, those are some of your top AFC Fantasy

864
00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:32,719
Speaker 1: training cat battles that we aren't watching for. We got

865
00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:34,239
Speaker 1: so many more, but we can't get to him all

866
00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:37,320
Speaker 1: in just one podcast, and again, sign up today, NFL.

867
00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:41,240
Speaker 1: We can trust one or two more. We come on? Fine?

868
00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:42,960
Speaker 1: Oh wait, do we gotta go to the mail bag?

869
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:44,680
Speaker 1: Well we can. We have the mail bag. We've got

870
00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:49,120
Speaker 1: daily DAPs. But you don't what no, no, no, hey listen,

871
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:52,000
Speaker 1: big timer. Listen, I get a big timer. You want

872
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:54,040
Speaker 1: to run the ship? Okay, that's there's money. Wanted to talk?

873
00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:56,040
Speaker 1: What do you want to do? I don't know. I

874
00:42:56,239 --> 00:43:00,239
Speaker 1: was surprised. I don't know. I was looking at this thing.

875
00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:04,640
Speaker 1: It says Colts number three receiver. Yes, who is their

876
00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:08,640
Speaker 1: number two receiver? Because if it's I'm leaving? Come on,

877
00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:14,879
Speaker 1: how is it? I don't understand what's going Why he's done,

878
00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:19,120
Speaker 1: he's done, it's over. He looks camp. Oh yeah, he's

879
00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:24,120
Speaker 1: great in August. How is it? I'm confused? He's old?

880
00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:32,479
Speaker 1: Who he's still young, He's still he's still this Dante Moncrief. Okay,

881
00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:35,200
Speaker 1: he's the number two, that guy that's gonna be the

882
00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:37,439
Speaker 1: guy who's gonna step up this year and everybody's gonna

883
00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:39,960
Speaker 1: be like, what where did this guy come from? Wait?

884
00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:43,040
Speaker 1: So does that mean Philip Dorset doesn't even see the field?

885
00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:46,440
Speaker 1: Is that what's going on? I don't know. I'm I'm

886
00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:49,520

00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:28,759
Speaker 1: build cat absolutely like, yeah, he's a little too old

901
00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:30,960
Speaker 1: for the flat brim though. That's true, he's gonna put

902
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:33,759
Speaker 1: a little bending. I I still wear a flat build cap. Well,

903
00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:36,040
Speaker 1: you're from the my wife, my wife was. My wife

00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:53,239
Speaker 1: your your corona's fine corona. Right. Also when you were

909
00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:57,759
Speaker 1: a kid, that's very true, right, you're from the nine No, no, no, no,

910
00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:00,120
Speaker 1: never a whispart of the nine on All right, listen up.

911
00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:03,680
Speaker 1: The bottom line is if you're from the I E. Anyways,

912
00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:05,520
Speaker 1: you're still going to be rocking the flag. Okay, yeah

913
00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:09,160
Speaker 1: I did, right, Okay, all right, tell me good God,

914
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:15,759
Speaker 1: get what the hell are these numbers? They're talking? All right?

915
00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:19,520
Speaker 1: Listen so you I could tell that you disagree wholeheartedly here, Alex.

916
00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:21,319
Speaker 1: I like Andre Johnson. I think he's still got something

917
00:45:21,400 --> 00:45:24,359
Speaker 1: left to prove and he wants it. I like him

918
00:45:24,360 --> 00:45:26,960
Speaker 1: as a person, as a player too. I think he's

919
00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:28,719
Speaker 1: a clear number two. Who do you all? But who

920
00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:31,880
Speaker 1: also do you like here in that group? But Dante

921
00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:34,840
Speaker 1: Moncreeve for Philip Dorsett. Let me flip four coins and

922
00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:37,040
Speaker 1: tell you like there, I don't know what's gonna happen.

923
00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:38,799
Speaker 1: I like mon Creef. I liked him last year. Then

924
00:45:38,840 --> 00:45:41,279
Speaker 1: I like Philip Dorsett, and they added him. They're gonna

925
00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:43,440
Speaker 1: resign t Y Hilton. They've got all those tight ends.

926
00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:45,040
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know. It's a it's a

927
00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:47,520
Speaker 1: it's a quandary to say. I don't see how Philip

928
00:45:47,600 --> 00:45:50,080
Speaker 1: dor said produced he does exactly the same thing as

929
00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:52,840
Speaker 1: t Y Hilton. I just don't get it. He's a

930
00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:56,400
Speaker 1: small speedster who catches long balls down. I think they

931
00:45:56,560 --> 00:45:57,880
Speaker 1: put him out there and he will. He will run

932
00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:00,879
Speaker 1: wind sprints and it's fine. I mean, but that's that's

933
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:03,600
Speaker 1: really hit or miss from a fantasy perspective. He's gonna

934
00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:05,080
Speaker 1: have a couple of games right where it's gonna be

935
00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:07,600
Speaker 1: a two catch, hundred yard in one touchdown. He's gonna

936
00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:08,959
Speaker 1: have a couple of and if you happen to plug

937
00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:11,120
Speaker 1: him in that day, well hooray for you. He's a

938
00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:13,320
Speaker 1: good he's a good last round flyer and like MFL

939
00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:16,960
Speaker 1: Ten's and best ball leagues. But otherwise he's a daily fantasy,

940
00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:20,520
Speaker 1: intriguing daily alright, So Adam Brank, is it okay if

941
00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:24,040
Speaker 1: we move on? Is that all right? Let's thinking he's

942
00:46:24,040 --> 00:46:26,320
Speaker 1: on his phone right now. I want to you know,

943
00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:28,560
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I just want to do my due diligence

944
00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:30,440
Speaker 1: and make all right. We're moving on here. Let's go.

945
00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:32,520
Speaker 1: Let's do the mail back. Our first question, come on,

946
00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:38,399
Speaker 1: you get a mail baby? Whoa in the early third round?

947
00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:41,719
Speaker 1: This is from Louis Helms at lou Helms in the

948
00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:45,080
Speaker 1: early third round. He asked you, Alex Gilhard directly. I

949
00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:49,279
Speaker 1: often get this same problem in mock Green Cobb or

950
00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:51,840
Speaker 1: al Sean. I feel like we don't talk about A J.

951
00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:54,680
Speaker 1: Green enough we should be. I feel like the the

952
00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:58,200
Speaker 1: Andy Dalton slander has you know, A J. Green has

953
00:46:58,239 --> 00:47:01,000
Speaker 1: become an innocent bystander in that I do. I think

954
00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:03,080
Speaker 1: you know, as we sit around and we always slander

955
00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:06,480
Speaker 1: Andy Dalton every single week, and then somehow it is

956
00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:09,440
Speaker 1: devalued a J. Green, which you look at the rest

957
00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:12,640
Speaker 1: of that receiving Corman Mohammed Sanu really didn't produce last

958
00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:14,360
Speaker 1: year when Green was hurt. I mean, I know Marvin

959
00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:16,839
Speaker 1: Jones is back, but he's certainly not on the level

960
00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:20,520
Speaker 1: of A J. Green. Um, he's still a top ten receiver, man.

961
00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:24,839
Speaker 1: You know, I feel like with I like Randall cob

962
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:27,600
Speaker 1: I like all Sean Jeffrey, but uh, I feel like

963
00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:30,480
Speaker 1: people are are devaluing A J. Green a little. Sometimes.

964
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:32,840
Speaker 1: You know, we talk about upside, and I know a

965
00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:35,160
Speaker 1: lot of times, you know, we point to younger guys,

966
00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:37,440
Speaker 1: unproven dudes that we just don't know enough about, and

967
00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:39,800
Speaker 1: we say, oh, this guy's got upside. You know, A J.

968
00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:42,839
Speaker 1: Green for where he's going in drafts. He had an

969
00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:45,279
Speaker 1: injury riddled season last year. This is a guy where

970
00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:47,040
Speaker 1: if you take him at the end of the second round,

971
00:47:47,120 --> 00:47:51,600
Speaker 1: early third round, he could provide huge profits for you. Absolutely,

972
00:47:51,680 --> 00:47:54,200
Speaker 1: and he's one of the few I think it's he's

973
00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:59,280
Speaker 1: the number. I'm sorry, said Randy Moss had a thousand

974
00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:02,719
Speaker 1: yards season his first six years. A J. Green is

975
00:48:02,840 --> 00:48:05,560
Speaker 1: right behind him. He's done it or so he's he's

976
00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:07,520
Speaker 1: an elite company. And of course, like you said, with

977
00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:10,440
Speaker 1: Red Dalton as a quarterback, everybody just looks at the

978
00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:14,400
Speaker 1: playoffs and says, oh, yeah, why are you smiling as you?

979
00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:17,120
Speaker 1: I like him when you call guys Red Dalton and whatnot.

980
00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:19,400
Speaker 1: It's it's funny. That's his name, right, No, it's not

981
00:48:19,600 --> 00:48:21,359
Speaker 1: just keep going all right, but no, but they make

982
00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:23,920
Speaker 1: fun of him because of his playoff failures. But look,

983
00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:26,560
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning failed in the playoffs for years, and Colts

984
00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:29,440
Speaker 1: receivers and Broncos receivers still went up and put put

985
00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:34,399
Speaker 1: up fantasy points. Don't even don't sweat it, like who cares? Like, Yeah, well,

986
00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:37,920
Speaker 1: we'll gather in July or January and have fun at

987
00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:40,759
Speaker 1: the Bengals expense. But until that time, we will win

988
00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:43,879
Speaker 1: Fantasy championships with Aja Green. That being said, I'm gonna

989
00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:48,520
Speaker 1: pick Elshan, Jeff Beans Price. I think I would say

990
00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:50,080
Speaker 1: I would take Green first out of them as well.

991
00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:52,480
Speaker 1: The last two years before his injury riddled season, he

992
00:48:52,560 --> 00:48:54,480
Speaker 1: was the fourth highest scoring Fantasy who had receive in

993
00:48:54,520 --> 00:48:55,960
Speaker 1: each of those years, even his rookie year, he was

994
00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:58,080
Speaker 1: the top fifteen years. The only thing that held him

995
00:48:58,120 --> 00:49:00,120
Speaker 1: back with the injuries. He's going to be a stud again. Mean,

996
00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:02,600
Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying. It's it's interesting to me because

997
00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:05,840
Speaker 1: he's a guy that's outside of the top five wide receivers.

998
00:49:05,960 --> 00:49:09,360
Speaker 1: Yet can really I mean, he's got potential, He's got

999
00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:12,840
Speaker 1: such athleticism he could produce top three wide receiver numbers.

1000
00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:14,279
Speaker 1: I really believe that. But I do see what you're

1001
00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:16,279
Speaker 1: saying with Al Jon Jeffrey. He's he's got a man

1002
00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:18,560
Speaker 1: crush obviously, or excuse me, Jake Color has a man

1003
00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:21,759
Speaker 1: crush uh with al Jan So I could see either

1004
00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:24,480
Speaker 1: one of those two guys Cobbs knocked down a little

1005
00:49:24,480 --> 00:49:28,600
Speaker 1: bit because he's the number two wide receiver in that off. Yeah,

1006
00:49:29,719 --> 00:49:33,839
Speaker 1: alright from ra wool at hand Tolo six six six,

1007
00:49:34,480 --> 00:49:38,359
Speaker 1: han On Clo six six. That's a cold read, my bad.

1008
00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:42,880
Speaker 1: Al right? Is Trey Mason a definite handcuff when drafting Girly?

1009
00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:46,120
Speaker 1: That seems like a yes or no, yes kinds of yes,

1010
00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:49,239
Speaker 1: all kinds of yes. And I like Girly, I say

1011
00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:51,239
Speaker 1: no because you're gonna have to get them too close

1012
00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:53,719
Speaker 1: together and then you're just gonna be stuck playing, you know,

1013
00:49:54,120 --> 00:49:56,640
Speaker 1: guessing games with which one is going to play? All right, well, fine,

1014
00:49:56,680 --> 00:49:58,200
Speaker 1: then where where do you take a train Mason? What

1015
00:49:58,280 --> 00:49:59,680
Speaker 1: round do you take him in? I don't know now

1016
00:49:59,719 --> 00:50:02,600
Speaker 1: with really being healthier, take Trey Mason and like nine

1017
00:50:03,239 --> 00:50:05,279
Speaker 1: ten still because it might be a committee. I think

1018
00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:09,000
Speaker 1: it's a good price, that's fair that I like early

1019
00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:12,120
Speaker 1: a lot though, Yeah, me too, Alright, Shane, I can't

1020
00:50:12,160 --> 00:50:15,279
Speaker 1: even pronounce his last name, Fachima. Sure it's a good

1021
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:18,040
Speaker 1: good all right. Who is this year's O b J?

1022
00:50:18,200 --> 00:50:20,600
Speaker 1: Basically I'm looking for a guy that goes undrafted in

1023
00:50:20,719 --> 00:50:24,839
Speaker 1: most leagues but could blow up. Okay, let's let's put

1024
00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:27,000
Speaker 1: the brakes on this, like the next oh b J

1025
00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:30,080
Speaker 1: sort of thing, like we don't like it doesn't have

1026
00:50:30,120 --> 00:50:31,640
Speaker 1: to be a rookie. This is just somebody that's good

1027
00:50:31,680 --> 00:50:34,160
Speaker 1: to know. What we did last year is just I mean,

1028
00:50:34,200 --> 00:50:36,840
Speaker 1: it's unprecedented, right, you know, we had a lot of

1029
00:50:36,920 --> 00:50:39,120
Speaker 1: guys like that. We had Jeremy Hill putting up those

1030
00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:41,239
Speaker 1: kind of numbers. We have C. J. Anderson putting up

1031
00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:43,480
Speaker 1: those kind of numbers. It's like there are guys out there.

1032
00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:45,040
Speaker 1: This is basically like a who are some of your

1033
00:50:45,080 --> 00:50:47,600
Speaker 1: favorite deep deep sleeper picks? Right? But you're not about

1034
00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:49,960
Speaker 1: a guy who's gonna go undrafted and put up those

1035
00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:52,120
Speaker 1: kind of I mean, if we knew that names if

1036
00:50:52,160 --> 00:50:54,919
Speaker 1: we knew that we'd be drafting these guys, right well,

1037
00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:58,520
Speaker 1: we probably will though this is what yeah, experts, expert,

1038
00:50:58,719 --> 00:51:01,040
Speaker 1: we probably will be drafted some of these guys. Alex

1039
00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:03,120
Speaker 1: one of my guys. He's not gonna put up oh

1040
00:51:03,160 --> 00:51:05,799
Speaker 1: B J numbers obviously. But a guy that's draft being

1041
00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:08,200
Speaker 1: drafted in round sixteen right now or something which in

1042
00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:11,600
Speaker 1: standard leagues doesn't exist, so he's going undrafted is Steve

1043
00:51:11,719 --> 00:51:14,960
Speaker 1: Johnson down in San Diego. I really love that. Not

1044
00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:17,040
Speaker 1: gonna blow up, but he could put up You could

1045
00:51:17,080 --> 00:51:18,960
Speaker 1: get him off the waivers and in the fifteenth round

1046
00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:21,239
Speaker 1: he could probably put up a thousand yards and six

1047
00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:23,560
Speaker 1: to eight touchdown. I was all excited for a second

1048
00:51:23,719 --> 00:51:26,239
Speaker 1: and then like, this is gonna be great, this is

1049
00:51:26,280 --> 00:51:29,160
Speaker 1: gonna be what's wrong with Stevie Johnson? Tell me what's wrong?

1050
00:51:30,120 --> 00:51:32,000
Speaker 1: Tell me what's wrong? What? What? What has he done?

1051
00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:34,040
Speaker 1: I mean, really this guy, I mean he put up

1052
00:51:34,080 --> 00:51:36,560
Speaker 1: three straight years with horrible quarterback play of over a

1053
00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:38,680
Speaker 1: thousand yards? What did you do last year? Somebody, somebody

1054
00:51:38,719 --> 00:51:41,680
Speaker 1: looked at up. He was on the fantasy like disaster

1055
00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:44,800
Speaker 1: known as Marcus is forty nine. Sorry, but like everybody

1056
00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:47,239
Speaker 1: outside of Frank Gore did nothing on that, all right,

1057
00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:48,600
Speaker 1: So you want a name, I'll give you a name.

1058
00:51:48,600 --> 00:51:53,799
Speaker 1: Give me a name. Nelson A Nelson because you look

1059
00:51:53,840 --> 00:51:56,560
Speaker 1: at the Eagles offense and everybody's already gaga over Jordan

1060
00:51:56,600 --> 00:51:59,360
Speaker 1: Matthews understandably. I think he's going to be great, and

1061
00:51:59,400 --> 00:52:02,240
Speaker 1: I think Nelson Agalore can certainly pick up the slack

1062
00:52:02,360 --> 00:52:04,600
Speaker 1: whatever Matthews doesn't get. I mean, I know, you look

1063
00:52:04,640 --> 00:52:07,400
Speaker 1: at that that Eagle offense. They're gonna sling it around

1064
00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:09,279
Speaker 1: this year, and I think for all the talk of

1065
00:52:09,400 --> 00:52:11,160
Speaker 1: rookie wide receivers, there's a lot of them that could

1066
00:52:11,200 --> 00:52:13,920
Speaker 1: potentially produce this year. I think Aglore is the guy

1067
00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:16,720
Speaker 1: that is probably being undervalued a little bit. I'm drafting

1068
00:52:16,760 --> 00:52:20,239
Speaker 1: him in the seventh round. I'm not live. I was

1069
00:52:20,400 --> 00:52:25,040
Speaker 1: literally doing my top one and he's like seventy. Wow, alright,

1070
00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:27,719
Speaker 1: so give me again. He's amazing. I mean, he's he's

1071
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:31,080
Speaker 1: that perfect body type who is just like Jeremy Mackman.

1072
00:52:31,160 --> 00:52:33,799
Speaker 1: Like when you if they weren't wearing numbers, you would

1073
00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:36,520
Speaker 1: you wouldn't a casual fan wouldn't know the difference that

1074
00:52:36,560 --> 00:52:39,600
Speaker 1: they had switched players. He's very fast. If you're in league,

1075
00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:42,920
Speaker 1: said give you points for return yards. He's gonna benefit

1076
00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:46,080
Speaker 1: you there as well. I see him having a monster season. Wow,

1077
00:52:46,160 --> 00:52:50,960
Speaker 1: a monster season. Monster, you know, and exactly he likes him,

1078
00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:53,440
Speaker 1: and he's very familiar with him. He he obviously knows

1079
00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:55,800
Speaker 1: a lot about him. I'm I'm assuming, I don't know

1080
00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:59,400
Speaker 1: for sure. I would imagine Oregon was recruiting him at

1081
00:52:59,480 --> 00:53:02,080
Speaker 1: some point when was I would imagine, so, yes, it

1082
00:53:02,200 --> 00:53:04,480
Speaker 1: just makes sense. So and I really, speaking of the Eagles,

1083
00:53:04,560 --> 00:53:07,640
Speaker 1: I'm so high on Jordan Matthews and and I'm and

1084
00:53:07,680 --> 00:53:10,160
Speaker 1: I'm happy that he's kind of fallen under the radar.

1085
00:53:10,320 --> 00:53:12,800
Speaker 1: But he's that guy that I'm really targeting in drafts.

1086
00:53:13,680 --> 00:53:16,480
Speaker 1: I love him. I'm Sam Bradford even I will throw

1087
00:53:16,560 --> 00:53:19,760
Speaker 1: out a name out there, this is super name, super

1088
00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:22,800
Speaker 1: super deep. But I've been talking about Buck Allen. Javoris

1089
00:53:22,840 --> 00:53:25,399
Speaker 1: Allen up in Baltimore. Uh And I hate to say

1090
00:53:25,440 --> 00:53:28,080
Speaker 1: because I think he's gonna bypass Justin fo Sett, my

1091
00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:31,359
Speaker 1: guy from cal But the way Buck Allen ran in college, man,

1092
00:53:31,600 --> 00:53:35,120
Speaker 1: he was, I mean, just a beast. Um and I

1093
00:53:35,160 --> 00:53:37,440
Speaker 1: see him in that offense. I see him as a

1094
00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:40,600
Speaker 1: great fit, a great compliment. Um. And I could see

1095
00:53:40,680 --> 00:53:43,680
Speaker 1: him taking over that starting job at some point. Uh

1096
00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:46,480
Speaker 1: Buck Allen is a guy. I want the people who

1097
00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:48,080
Speaker 1: are listening to this fantasy part I want them to

1098
00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:50,640
Speaker 1: at least circle his name. If you're not taking him

1099
00:53:50,640 --> 00:53:53,480
Speaker 1: in the fifteenth, at least watch for him and flag

1100
00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:55,719
Speaker 1: him on that waiver wire. He's a guy. He's a

1101
00:53:55,920 --> 00:53:58,560
Speaker 1: very interesting name. Um and I and I really like

1102
00:53:58,680 --> 00:54:01,239
Speaker 1: his talent level and I really like his situation as well.

1103
00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:04,319
Speaker 1: All Right, it is time wait, hold on a second,

1104
00:54:04,360 --> 00:54:08,080
Speaker 1: I got one more name. Sorry, Matt Golden. Uh is asking,

1105
00:54:08,120 --> 00:54:10,919
Speaker 1: will Joe Flacco be a top seven fantasy quarterback playing

1106
00:54:10,920 --> 00:54:13,400
Speaker 1: at a Trustman? Should raise his stats, will stay in Baltimore.

1107
00:54:13,400 --> 00:54:15,680
Speaker 1: I guess h Adam Rerank will start with you. Can

1108
00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:19,800
Speaker 1: Joe Flacco be a top seven fantasy quarterback next? No? No?

1109
00:54:20,960 --> 00:54:23,200
Speaker 1: I like, I like the sentiment. I like where his

1110
00:54:23,280 --> 00:54:25,520
Speaker 1: head's out. I like him mark Trustman. It's one of

1111
00:54:25,560 --> 00:54:27,440
Speaker 1: the I mean again, it's gonna be one of those

1112
00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:29,800
Speaker 1: situations where he could end up paying off for you

1113
00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:33,320
Speaker 1: in daily fantasy leagues. Will be a a great value

1114
00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:37,240
Speaker 1: most weeks. But I I look at his receiving corps

1115
00:54:37,280 --> 00:54:39,120
Speaker 1: and I look at the way that even though Trustman

1116
00:54:39,239 --> 00:54:42,080
Speaker 1: is a great offensive coordinator, I don't I don't see

1117
00:54:42,120 --> 00:54:44,319
Speaker 1: the prolific numbers. Trustman also just came out and said

1118
00:54:44,320 --> 00:54:46,719
Speaker 1: that they're going to emphasize the run a lot. Yeah,

1119
00:54:47,600 --> 00:54:50,480
Speaker 1: and add to the last season, Jake Cutler, with better

1120
00:54:50,520 --> 00:54:53,120
Speaker 1: wide receivers wasn't a top seven fantasy quarterback. It's a

1121
00:54:53,239 --> 00:54:56,920
Speaker 1: very good point there, all right. But Joe Flacco I

1122
00:54:57,080 --> 00:55:04,440
Speaker 1: like it. Listen, there's very it's the opposite. But but

1123
00:55:04,520 --> 00:55:06,800
Speaker 1: look at him and Andy Dalton. But it's his playoff

1124
00:55:06,880 --> 00:55:10,400
Speaker 1: numbers that makes them so great. He's clutch when accounts.

1125
00:55:10,440 --> 00:55:14,480
Speaker 1: I mean, and that's the thing if you want to

1126
00:55:14,520 --> 00:55:22,600
Speaker 1: go the to what Rogers Er, Wilson, Roethlisberger, Manning, Manning, Breeze,

1127
00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:24,000
Speaker 1: I mean, these are all people that I would have

1128
00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:26,880
Speaker 1: to beat out still Manning, I if I may have,

1129
00:55:27,040 --> 00:55:29,360
Speaker 1: I don't know if I'll ever be invited back. And

1130
00:55:29,960 --> 00:55:31,600
Speaker 1: Manning is not gonna be good. You know. The thing

1131
00:55:31,640 --> 00:55:35,239
Speaker 1: about paid Manning I'm very interested in is remember when

1132
00:55:35,400 --> 00:55:38,960
Speaker 1: Baseball put a crackdown on H G H and then

1133
00:55:39,040 --> 00:55:41,680
Speaker 1: our steroids and everything and all the home run numbers

1134
00:55:41,719 --> 00:55:44,840
Speaker 1: came down. I'm very interested to see what happens to

1135
00:55:44,920 --> 00:55:47,480
Speaker 1: a lot of quarterback numbers now that they're paying attention

1136
00:55:47,520 --> 00:55:51,040
Speaker 1: to the inflation levels of football? And who who was

1137
00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:54,640
Speaker 1: the who is the uh? Who is the control freak

1138
00:55:54,920 --> 00:55:58,600
Speaker 1: who helped co sign the legislation that Tom Brady pushed

1139
00:55:58,640 --> 00:56:01,719
Speaker 1: through about registering the p s I for footballs Oh

1140
00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:04,080
Speaker 1: with Peyton Manning. You don't think that he You don't

1141
00:56:04,120 --> 00:56:06,640
Speaker 1: think that the guys who worked for the Broncos knew

1142
00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:09,759
Speaker 1: how paid Manning likes the balls and most of those

1143
00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:11,480
Speaker 1: quarterbacks do it before the game. We don't need to

1144
00:56:11,480 --> 00:56:13,080
Speaker 1: get into that. But all those guys are still gonna

1145
00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:14,920
Speaker 1: do it. They're still gonna be the balls up changing anyways.

1146
00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:29,680
Speaker 1: Daily depths all right, let's go do daily depths. Definitely depths. Alright,

1158
00:57:03,880 --> 00:57:05,600
Speaker 1: And I really felt like all these years she was

1159
00:57:05,719 --> 00:57:08,320
Speaker 1: kind of dominating and a little bit overbearing, and I

1160
00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:10,640
Speaker 1: felt like Kervitt was just a laid back frog just

00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:12,520
Speaker 1: trying to make it in this big city. So now

00:57:41,480 --> 00:57:44,880

1177
00:57:53,800 --> 00:57:57,640
Speaker 1: some funny videos. But um, but beyond the basketball, he

1178
00:57:57,680 --> 00:58:02,400
Speaker 1: actually does a really really, really good Drake impersonation. So

1181
00:58:09,840 --> 00:58:13,120
Speaker 1: of pickup basketball. This dude is so funny. Now I'm

1182
00:58:13,200 --> 00:58:15,360
Speaker 1: trying to remember if I find this is the same guy.

1183
00:58:15,640 --> 00:58:18,680
Speaker 1: I believe he's from my hometown of Valo, California. There

1184
00:58:18,760 --> 00:58:21,440
Speaker 1: is a Brandon Armstrong from Voyo who made it to

1185
00:58:21,520 --> 00:58:23,800
Speaker 1: the NBA. And I don't know if it's Brandon armstrongs

1186
00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:28,200
Speaker 1: they fairly, but he was from Valio, California, Pepper and

1187
00:58:28,240 --> 00:58:29,919
Speaker 1: I made it to the NBA. For a quick minute,

1188
00:58:30,360 --> 00:58:32,480
Speaker 1: I'm wondering if it's the same guy it maybe I'm

1189
00:58:32,520 --> 00:58:35,160
Speaker 1: not exactly sure, but Daily DAPs to Brandon Armstrong be

00:58:35,280 --> 00:58:39,880
Speaker 1: dot a dot Dailey DAPs to Vallejo. Absolutely, Okay, I am,

1191
00:58:39,960 --> 00:58:43,960

1192
00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:47,880
Speaker 1: who is stepping down as the host of the Daily Show.

1193
00:58:48,600 --> 00:58:51,000
Speaker 1: For a lot of our millennials back there pushing the buttons,

1194
00:58:51,040 --> 00:58:54,240
Speaker 1: they do not realize that this guy change the way

1195
00:58:54,320 --> 00:58:56,520
Speaker 1: that news is presented. And it's kind of funny because

1196
00:58:56,560 --> 00:59:00,720
Speaker 1: I remember being a young lad working at the Irvine

1197
00:59:00,720 --> 00:59:03,080
Speaker 1: Improv many years ago when he was a regular just

1198
00:59:03,320 --> 00:59:07,320
Speaker 1: the stand like a regular handliner who would twice a year.

1199
00:59:07,680 --> 00:59:09,760
Speaker 1: One of the funny his stand up is amazing. I

1200
00:59:09,840 --> 00:59:11,880
Speaker 1: remember the Doctor Kats. If you can go back and

1201
00:59:11,960 --> 00:59:15,360
Speaker 1: YouTube that stuff, go look it up. So it's gonna

1202
00:59:15,360 --> 00:59:18,880
Speaker 1: be We're gonna be in for a bit of a

1203
00:59:18,960 --> 00:59:20,920
