Yeah, pulling 12 00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:44,560 Speaker 1: for the Jaguars to win team close to Super Bowl. 13 00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 1: Ball back that last show you mean, yeah, yeah, the 14 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:48,440 Speaker 1: show I was a while ago that it was like 15 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:50,959 Speaker 1: a long time ago. It was. You're also a long 16 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,880 Speaker 1: time ago Chop podcast. Yea for the Guilloteam League, So 17 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:55,720 Speaker 1: we should we should fire up one of those maybe 18 00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 1: next week, talk about some of the things that are 19 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 1: are lessons learned. Um, it will be a drafting season 20 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 1: pretty soon. I mean it already is, really, but for 21 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:11,560 Speaker 1: Guilloteen leagues, specifically. Yes, Yeah, for some people, they're already 22 00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:13,959 Speaker 1: getting their best ball teams going for next year. Oh 23 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:15,880 Speaker 1: you're talking to one. Yeah, I know, I know. I 24 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:18,959 Speaker 1: mean I love that about you. That's fantastic. It is 25 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 1: fascinating just to watch the ebbs and flows of ADPs. Yeah, 26 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:25,600 Speaker 1: I mean, it's got to be radically changing now. Oh yeah, 27 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,839 Speaker 1: I've seen it already. Some players. I mean, I could 28 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 1: talk for over an hour right now to just give 29 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 1: me one name. Where is Bejean Robinson's going to be 30 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 1: the first player taking a rookie and Dynasty drafts. No, 31 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 1: he's he's going. Where is he going in you know, redraft? 32 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:45,319 Speaker 1: Anywhere from tenth to like so late first to mid second, 33 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 1: not getting past or pick fifteen sixteen. That's about as 34 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:52,000 Speaker 1: late as your seat him go. And obviously we don't 35 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 1: even know where he's playing as it right now, but 36 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 1: he's he's RB four basically. I don't know that I 37 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 1: was on any shows with you in which we've talked 38 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 1: about this, but I've talked about it a couple of 39 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 1: times throughout January and into February. I think there's a 40 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 1: decent chance he ends up in Cincinnati or Kansas City 41 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 1: and becomes just a dynaball, just a block buzz because 42 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 1: I think seams are so hesitant to draft or running back, 43 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 1: understandably so for reasons. Everybody that's listening to this understands 44 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,920 Speaker 1: in the first round that he could easily fall to 45 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 1: the bottom of the first round and then one of 46 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,800 Speaker 1: these elite off he just walks into an elite offense 47 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 1: at the bottom of the first round. An intriguing option 48 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 1: I've heard and it makes sense is the Giants they 49 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 1: just reboot s Quon Barkley. Basically, Barkley, pay Barkley. They're 50 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 1: probably not gonna pay Barkley now what he wants, which 51 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 1: sadly is him a lot when it comes to running. 52 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 1: Bit but you're you're a little kid growing about there, 53 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:51,080 Speaker 1: great football player. Don't play running back, be a punter, 54 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,800 Speaker 1: play cornerback like any the other skilled position than running 55 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 1: back if you want to get paid, because you gotta 56 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,239 Speaker 1: work hard for that money. Man, it's the second contract. 57 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 1: Here's the and you understand the team's position. How many 58 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 1: running backs get a second contract and the team's glad 59 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: they did it, and you know, almost never. It just 60 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 1: goes to show how bad that pick was for the Giants. 61 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 1: Back then there were no position to spend the fourth 62 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 1: overall pick well on a running back. Now, he was 63 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 1: like the last thing. That's like the last piece you 64 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 1: go for, right almost in fantasy football and reality football 65 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:26,680 Speaker 1: is you go big at running back once you got 66 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:29,239 Speaker 1: everything else in place, all right, But in fairness, Barkley 67 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,359 Speaker 1: won Rookie of the Year, and he was his rookie year. 68 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 1: He was awesome, he was so good, and then just 69 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 1: the injuries derailed him. And now you know, you just 70 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 1: you feel like you can't the Giants can't give him 71 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: a second running back. But yeah, but I mean now 72 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 1: when there they've sort of have a team in place, 73 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 1: they can't afford to pay him essentially, so but again, bijon, Yeah, 74 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 1: the hype is real already. But yeah, if he lands 75 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: on one of those soft places, like you said, soft 76 00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 1: as in good like yeah, Kansas City piece Miami, am well, 77 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 1: Miami lost their first round pick, so not Otherwise that 78 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: would have been an ideal spot for him. We've been 79 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: twenty three, could be a Minnesota Viking perhaps, and maybe 80 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: that'd be a pretty good landing spot for him too, really, 81 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 1: but yeah, it's ever since Barkley he's the flashiest rookie 82 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:18,920 Speaker 1: we've seen going into since Barkley. I totally agree. We're 83 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 1: going to talk about rushing in this podcast, but we're 84 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 1: talking about quarterback rushing. Yeah, as has become apparent for 85 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 1: those that are a little slower on the pick up here, 86 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 1: rushing quarterbacks are a freaking cheat code. When you can 87 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 1: get a quarterback who can run and pass, it unlocks 88 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:46,599 Speaker 1: some crazy upside and an extremely safe floor in any 89 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: given week. Because if you've got a quarterback who can 90 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: run and pass, odds are one or the other is 91 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,040 Speaker 1: going to come through for you in any given game, 92 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:59,280 Speaker 1: if not both. So what I've wanted, what I wanted 93 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: to do today, Ryan is drilled down on the necessity 94 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:12,280 Speaker 1: to draft a rushing quarterback, a mobile quarterback. Is it imperative? 95 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 1: Do you need to, as we like to say on 96 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: this show, reach around to take a mobile quarterback and 97 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:23,039 Speaker 1: make sure you get your guy. And we've ground up 98 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 1: a bunch of data and they aren't. They are in 99 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,600 Speaker 1: demand right now. We were talking ADP and we'll get 100 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 1: there again, but yeah, they want to talk to you 101 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 1: about that. I think we'll get pickamp on this. Finally, 102 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,479 Speaker 1: very bullish on the mobile quarter quarterbacks, Yes, I bet 103 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 1: they are so. And we'll talk about this from the 104 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: standpoint of one quarterback, two quarterback in super Flex, especially 105 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:45,039 Speaker 1: at the end. I want to talk to you. I 106 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:48,679 Speaker 1: want to cover those different formats. Although it becomes pretty 107 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,799 Speaker 1: apparent like two quarterback, everybody's running to get a quarterback. Anyway, 108 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 1: one quarterback you have a lot more options. But we'll 109 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 1: talk about that in a second. First, I want to 110 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 1: break down who is what we're going to call it, 111 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 1: a very mobile quarterback, who is an occasionally mobile quarterback, 112 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 1: and then who's an immobile quarterback. So let's start here 113 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,479 Speaker 1: the very mobile quarterbacks. These are guys who average over 114 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 1: forty rushing yards per game. Okay, and the data set 115 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 1: for this has been I used the last two years 116 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:23,279 Speaker 1: for all of my data, and I always love equating 117 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 1: forty rushing yards. When it comes from a quarterback, it's 118 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 1: an extra passing touch it is right, it's a it's 119 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 1: a free passing touchdown in every in every every game. 120 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 1: Justin Fields last year was over forty Josh Allen both 121 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: of the last two years, Daniel Jones last year in 122 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 1: a competent offense, and Jalen Hurts both years. Those are 123 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: your fields, Alan Jones hurts, those are your very mobile quarterbacks. 124 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 1: And I think it's safe to say Lamar Jackson would 125 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 1: have been on that list if healthy. Yeah, he kind 126 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: of up the last few years, so we should lump 127 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 1: him into that category, I would think, and Trey Lance 128 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:05,840 Speaker 1: people were envisioning him. Right, we'll hold off. So I'm 129 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: glad you brought this up. So let me say that 130 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 1: all the data you're going to hear, I took out 131 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 1: anybody who didn't start at least eight games in a 132 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 1: season because Brian I just I was trying to weed 133 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 1: out backups, bad starters, because I didn't want them polluting 134 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: the data. I didn't want to pollute the data with 135 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 1: a bunch of guys who were like two start quarterbacks, 136 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 1: three start quarterbacks, four start quarterbacks. And really the only 137 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: guy who kind of got who got sort of nuked 138 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 1: out of all of this was Lamar Jackson. But still 139 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 1: I think that, you know, there's so many other quarterbacks 140 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 1: you were to talk about. I don't think this really 141 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 1: disrupts the data a lot. Now, you're occasionally mobile quarterbacks 142 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 1: are quarterbacks who run for on average twenty to forty 143 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 1: rushing yards per game. They are Kyler Murray Justin Fields 144 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: last year, Marcus Mariota this year, Daniel Jones last year, 145 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: and Patrick Mahomes both of the last two years, and 146 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 1: then Geno Smith last year quietly chipping in over twenty 147 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 1: rushing yards per game. And then everybody else is categorized 148 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 1: as an am mobile quarterback less than twenty rushing yards 149 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 1: per game, and we'll talk about how many points you 150 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 1: got for these guys. Want one guy and he wouldn't 151 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 1: meet your criteria because he didn't play enough games. But 152 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 1: going into this season, I think DeShawn Watson falls into that. Yeah, 153 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 1: I didn't realize he would have. He would have if 154 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,320 Speaker 1: you extrapolated his six games from the last year whatever, 155 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 1: he would have finished with over five hundred rushing yards, 156 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,559 Speaker 1: which would have put him six among quarterbacks and rushing 157 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 1: yards behind Daniel Jones on a per game basis. I'm 158 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: guessing this sort of thrown him into the occasional mobile, 159 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 1: but he didn't have to my eyes. Do you remember 160 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:54,079 Speaker 1: great runs from Deshaun Watson this year? Now, he never 161 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: quite even in his career, like he doesn't have the 162 00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 1: like you remember, Like going back to Michael Vick, like 163 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 1: that over time run against the Vikings where they like 164 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 1: oh God, and Lamar Jackson like you, Yeah, Watson, he's 165 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 1: never he's not that type of runner, but he's he's 166 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 1: so must mobile. Yeah, well for sure you can make 167 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:13,200 Speaker 1: things happen if he needs to. All right, so let's 168 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 1: start here, just the core essence. How many fantasy points 169 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:21,680 Speaker 1: per game? Did very mobile quarterbacks have? Occasionally mobile quarterbacks 170 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:25,359 Speaker 1: and immobile quarterbacks, So let's just start right there. Immobile 171 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:29,320 Speaker 1: quarterbacks averaged And obviously every scoring system is a little 172 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 1: bit different here, so you just use these as comparisons 173 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:33,720 Speaker 1: and you can you can apply your own scoring system 174 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 1: to this. Immobile quarterbacks average fifteen fantasy points per game. 175 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:42,840 Speaker 1: Occasionally mobile quarterbacks again, these are people in the twenty 176 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:46,359 Speaker 1: to forty yard range. That number jumped up to eighteen 177 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 1: fantasy points per game with Patrick Mahomes. If you take 178 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes out of that, it drops, it go only 179 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:58,079 Speaker 1: goes to sixteen. The very mobile quarterbacks Brian jump up 180 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 1: to twenty one fantasy point points per game. That is 181 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:08,319 Speaker 1: almost a fifty percent boost over the immobile quarterback. Regardless 182 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:10,839 Speaker 1: of how many actual points your scoring system has and 183 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 1: the nuances of yours. The difference between a mobile and 184 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:22,679 Speaker 1: very mobile quarterbacks is almost fifty percent. That's pretty serious change. Yeah, 185 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:27,960 Speaker 1: it's to me. That's where you start really changing your priorities. 186 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:32,840 Speaker 1: I'm trying to find a rushing quarterback when you're drafting, Um, 187 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 1: I want to hit you with this. Do rushing quarterbacks 188 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 1: miss more games? Do these mobile quarterbacks get hit more 189 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 1: often and miss more games? Off the top of your head, 190 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:48,560 Speaker 1: most people would say yes, because they're running around in 191 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:52,440 Speaker 1: the tackles. Yeah, but is that the case? Before I 192 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 1: looked at the data on the injuries and missed games 193 00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 1: for mobile quarterbacks, I was of the belief that the 194 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 1: most dangerous place for a quarterback was in the pocket, 195 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 1: that you get the blindside hit. You know your stationary 196 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,560 Speaker 1: and here comes some three hundred pound guy running full 197 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:14,960 Speaker 1: steam into your back. That kind of stuff. Sunday did 198 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:18,559 Speaker 1: grind up the data, and as a reminder, here I'm 199 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 1: comparing starting quarterbacks, but starting quarterbacks or removed the quarterbacks 200 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 1: we played less than eight games in a season, and 201 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,199 Speaker 1: I did remove a couple of that that pulled out 202 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 1: a couple of legit guys. You mentioned m Lamar Jackson, 203 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:32,680 Speaker 1: but also like Matthew Stafford last year, Sam Howell, Malik Wills, 204 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 1: I didn' Jeff Risk called Cooper Rush. I didn't want 205 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 1: them concluding the data here. So here's where it comes in. 206 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:48,360 Speaker 1: Immobile quarterbacks averaged fourteen starts per season. Occasionally, mobile quarterbacks 207 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: averaged fourteen starts per season. So now if we go 208 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 1: to that group of very mobile quarterbacks fields Alan Jones hurts, 209 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 1: they averaged more games fifteen per season over the last 210 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 1: two years, at least for the at least for the 211 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 1: this data set of the last two years, these mobile 212 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 1: quarterbacks are loop missing any more games then the mobile 213 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 1: quarterbacks and playing more games. It was either his most 214 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,679 Speaker 1: recent ankle injury or knee injury, or he hurt his 215 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,079 Speaker 1: ankle one of the two times, if not both of 216 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 1: the last two times. Lamar Jackson's been hurt and missed 217 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 1: significant time several weeks. He's been hurting the pocket and 218 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:37,319 Speaker 1: people will musically jumped like running quarterback. He's like, yeah, well, 219 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 1: too bad. He was standing in the pocket when he 220 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 1: hurt his ankle this time. It's not always when they're 221 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:46,560 Speaker 1: on the run. Great point, Josh Allen. When he got 222 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 1: hurt it was his elbow I don't remember the play. 223 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 1: Oh he was in the pocket armed top back and 224 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 1: he's following through and then yeah, yeah, progress got impeded 225 00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 1: throwing the ball anybody, ye, yep, and you know, and 226 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 1: that really it took the wheels off of Josh Allen 227 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 1: for about three or four games that elbow injury. They 228 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 1: didn't run him very much and that you know, that 229 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,839 Speaker 1: subdued his numbers a little bit last year. But still 230 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 1: Allan obviously an elite mobile quarterback. Want to I want 231 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 1: to take a quick break when we come back, Brian, 232 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 1: I want to talk about at what point in the 233 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 1: draft do you need to take a mobile quarterback? Where 234 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 1: are they going in ADP? And are you paying that ADP? 235 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 1: You paying more for that for that quarterback? Are you 236 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 1: gonna You're gonna let somebody else take that mobile quarterback? 237 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 1: Stay tuned Fantasy Football Weekly. Welcome back Fantasy Football Weekly. 238 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: We are talking about mobile rushing quarterbacks. Do you need 239 00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 1: to prioritize getting a rushing quarterback? Michael Vick really changed 240 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 1: the landscape modern day with some gigantic games that started 241 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 1: to give people a hint of what a dual threat 242 00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 1: quarterback could be. But that was like twenty twelve years ago, 243 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 1: twenty years ago when he was drafted. Yeah, back, you 244 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 1: have to go all the way back to when he 245 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:10,680 Speaker 1: was drafted, for sure, and Dante Culpepper that little bit. Yeah, 246 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 1: No one ran like vic Lamar Jackson is the only 247 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 1: comparable guy in the last twenty thirty years. Ailin Hurts 248 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 1: and Jon Fields are into that. I'd take that back. Yeah, um, 249 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 1: but I think we were all very slow to realize 250 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:33,120 Speaker 1: that those guys were breaking scoring systems wide open, and 251 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 1: you know it, and it's only becoming more obvious now. 252 00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna look this up now. I think he topped 253 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 1: twenty passing touchdowns one time in his career. Yeah, that 254 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:43,640 Speaker 1: was I think was that Eagles season two, And it 255 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 1: was like later on in his career. You may be 256 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 1: right about that. And I remember mostly getting this wrong 257 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 1: because he had spent like three years in jail, and 258 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 1: his first year back, I'm like, can you really spend 259 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 1: three years in jail and just walk down too a 260 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 1: football field and be great? I turned out he was 261 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 1: pretty good, and uh so he was drafted to No. One. Um, yeah, 262 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 1: twenty two years ago. But yeah, twenty touchdowns and oh 263 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 1: six was his career high and then he went to 264 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,160 Speaker 1: prison and then oh nine he came back and in 265 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 1: uh twenty ten is when he had twenty one passing touchdowns. 266 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 1: So he said twenty or more passing touchdowns twice. Yeah, 267 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 1: in his career passing to me, I like five in 268 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 1: one game that Eagle that Monday night. Yeah, that was 269 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 1: like was it against Washington? Yeah, I was in Washington. 270 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 1: I remember I lived out there at the time. I 271 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:29,840 Speaker 1: almost went to that game, but I was like, I 272 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 1: hate both of these teams, but I wish I had 273 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 1: seen that in person. That had been cool. But anyway, 274 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 1: now that box score remains one of the highest scoring 275 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 1: single performances in fantasy football history. And he did a 276 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 1: lot of it in the first half too. I remember 277 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 1: I think like fourth maybe in the first quarter, he 278 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,680 Speaker 1: had like two bombs into de Shawn Jackson, then like 279 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 1: a rushing touchdown, and like the first quarter, you know, 280 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 1: like wouldn't surprise me. That was I want to say. 281 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 1: He had over one hundred rushing yards, two rushing touchdowns, 282 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 1: and like three passing touchdowns in that game. Hold on, 283 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 1: I think I can pull if you can find that, 284 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 1: that'd be fun to take. That'd be fun to hear 285 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:05,480 Speaker 1: about that game again for the young guns out there, 286 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 1: they don't remember that. We'll remember that game from what year? 287 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 1: Do we think that? It was twenty ten? Sadly, but 288 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 1: that was a long time ago, twenty ten. I remember 289 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 1: commiserating with Matthew Barry during that game because he's a 290 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 1: big Washington fan. Yeah. And Monday Night Football November fifteenth, 291 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 1: the Eagles beat Washington fifty nine twenty eight. Let's see 292 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 1: Michael vic head three thirty three and four passing and 293 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 1: then eighty yards rushing in two rushing touchdowns and touchdown performance. 294 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 1: They took their foot off the gas mid third quarter 295 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: in that game too. Well, I'm sure they put a 296 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 1: fifty nine point so they must have at some point. 297 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 1: Who was the backup quarterback that came in after Michael Ing, Oh, 298 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 1: good old Kevin Cobb. Kevin, you know what, he only 299 00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 1: took it. H He didn't have a pass attempt Vic 300 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 1: most of the game, okay, cobbed one rush attempt negative, 301 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 1: so he kneeled the ball field. That would say okay 302 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:09,520 Speaker 1: with the days anyway, So we've established that these very 303 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 1: mobile quarterbacks are worth almost a fifty percent boost and 304 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:19,480 Speaker 1: fantasy points over the immobile quarterback. So let's talk ADP. 305 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 1: What kind of ADP are we looking at for guys 306 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 1: like Fields and Josh Allen and Daniel Jones and Jalen Hurts. 307 00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:29,920 Speaker 1: Well in super flex and two quarterback, nothing really changes 308 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 1: quarterbacks going high demand. You'll see the top ten go 309 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 1: in the first two rounds. Really, and if there's any 310 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:38,480 Speaker 1: there's barely any room for them to move up in 311 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:41,439 Speaker 1: two quarterback formats, right if any little wiggle room there 312 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 1: is is gone. But you're gonna see in any order, 313 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:48,080 Speaker 1: it's gonna be Fields, sorry, not Fields, but Hurts, Alan 314 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:52,080 Speaker 1: Mahomes go in that order, and then even Burrow he's 315 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:54,440 Speaker 1: not as he's not falling into this category. But yeah, 316 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:58,360 Speaker 1: quarterbacks premium in super flex two quarterback, no shocker there. 317 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,439 Speaker 1: But in one quarterback I've seen a huge shift from 318 00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:06,520 Speaker 1: last year where Josh Allen, Jalen Hurts, and Patrick Mahomes 319 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:09,119 Speaker 1: somewhat mobile. He's really mobile in the sense that he 320 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 1: gives you those e white mobile numbers. Yeah, yeah, he 321 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 1: really scrambles what he needs to, but he can throw 322 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:16,879 Speaker 1: an eighty yard bomb behind his back that counts as 323 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 1: like an eighty yard rushing touch. Now, to right. But 324 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 1: those guys are going early first. They're not going anywhere 325 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 1: past the mid second, which is easily a round and 326 00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:30,680 Speaker 1: a half earlier than last year. Justin fields right now, 327 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 1: his current best ball ADP an underdog is thirty six, 328 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:37,120 Speaker 1: which is the end of round three. That's where you seek. 329 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 1: That's where you'd see quarterback one going last year. If 330 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 1: that early, really they're really going like mid third, early fourth, 331 00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 1: you would see people going it was really more like 332 00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson, Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen last year. But in 333 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 1: best ball, isn't it even more important to get the 334 00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 1: crazy upside that these rushing quarterbacks can give you the standard? 335 00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 1: So I'm surprised that I'm surprised they're even going that long. 336 00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 1: To me to buy on justin fields end of the 337 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 1: third round, Oh yeah, definitely, and uh yeah fields, and 338 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:08,920 Speaker 1: then Lamar Jackson is going after fields. I mean Lamar Jackson, 339 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:12,920 Speaker 1: he has a repeat of his twenty nineteen season. Well, 340 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:14,640 Speaker 1: how many? How many years are we going to say that? Though? 341 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:16,080 Speaker 1: I know, I mean now we've been saying that for 342 00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 1: three years waiting for him to happen. I'll get a 343 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:20,680 Speaker 1: little bit more excited about l Jackson if they say 344 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:23,880 Speaker 1: they land DeAndre Hopkins somehow, or they it'd be better 345 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 1: if he goes somewhere else, potentially Lamar Jackson. Yeah, it 346 00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 1: actually sounds like he probably will. I don't know what 347 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 1: he's not in the Giants conversation, or you got to 348 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 1: afford him, and you've got to decide the Ravens, who 349 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 1: know everything there is to know about Lamar Jackson, if 350 00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:45,439 Speaker 1: they decide to pass on paying him, what does that 351 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:48,359 Speaker 1: say to the rest of the league. Does the rest 352 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:51,119 Speaker 1: of the league go, well, you know, if they're not 353 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 1: going to pay him, why are we going to step up? 354 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 1: Or is it just there's so many teams that are 355 00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:58,719 Speaker 1: desperate at quarterback that somebody will for sure what it is. 356 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,919 Speaker 1: Kyler is Kyler Marie and DeShawn Watson deals have just 357 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 1: blown up quarterback market. That makes Daniel Jones almost borderline 358 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 1: worth forty five million dollars. It's not happy, it's a 359 00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:12,240 Speaker 1: little too much, but sadly he's like a thirty five 360 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 1: million dollars guy. Based on what Daniel Watson and Daniel 361 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 1: Jones touchdowns passing touchdowns the last three years fifteen, ten 362 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 1: and eleven. He's like and he's forty million dollars quarterback. 363 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,720 Speaker 1: He's like Michael Vicks. Well he's not even not even 364 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:34,440 Speaker 1: not it's yet's absurd, but that it might be that way, Well, 365 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:36,880 Speaker 1: we'll see what it really has happened. When Jalen Hurts, 366 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:38,640 Speaker 1: I think he's in the last year of his contract. 367 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:41,000 Speaker 1: This year's who had the money he's gonna get he commands, 368 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:42,920 Speaker 1: It's gonna get a lot. But the long story short 369 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:46,440 Speaker 1: in one quarterback leagues, I want to say, the jig 370 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:48,199 Speaker 1: is up, the cat is out of the bag, whatever. 371 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,399 Speaker 1: The price is way up on the Jalen Hurts and 372 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:53,360 Speaker 1: the Josh Allens of the world, just because they are. 373 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: Those two guys put up and justin fields even they 374 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:59,200 Speaker 1: put up top twelve running back numbers and that doesn't 375 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:02,679 Speaker 1: even factor in their passing. So yeah, all right there, 376 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 1: and there's still room for these guys to go up. 377 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:07,239 Speaker 1: Like you said, you're kind of shocked that Hurts and 378 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 1: Alan were going. I could I wouldn't be shocked. We 379 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,040 Speaker 1: get deeper into the summer spring summer, we see them 380 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 1: going in the mid first and maybe even first overall. 381 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:18,040 Speaker 1: So all right, we'll let's all right, well, let we 382 00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:21,440 Speaker 1: discussed in detail. Justin Fields, talk to me about Josh Allen. 383 00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:23,439 Speaker 1: Let's go to him next. Where is Josh Allen going 384 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 1: right now? Right now? He's quarterback one ADP of sixteen 385 00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:32,119 Speaker 1: point six, so he is, you know, first the third 386 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:34,160 Speaker 1: of the second round. He's an early second round pick 387 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 1: right now, early second round pick. And Mahomes and Hurts 388 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 1: are right behind him. It's like whoever you prefer there 389 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:43,479 Speaker 1: and and we can talk best ball centric. It kind 390 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 1: of almost depends if you compare a Digs or a 391 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 1: Kelsey or a AJ Brown who you take in the 392 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:53,640 Speaker 1: first round in whatever course. But those three guys, they're 393 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:57,119 Speaker 1: going ahead of RB five six right now. Yeah, And 394 00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 1: that was never the case. It used to be, no, 395 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 1: not in one quarterback. I think finally people have gotten 396 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 1: around to being a lot more open to not spending 397 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:06,440 Speaker 1: those early picks on running backs, which is taken twenty years. 398 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:09,680 Speaker 1: But it's great to see. I think it's great to 399 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:11,200 Speaker 1: see those guys going where they are, and I think 400 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 1: you can make case for them to all go higher 401 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:17,160 Speaker 1: than they are. The key with these rushing quarterbacks Fields, 402 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 1: Alan Jones, Daniel Jones, who I'm putting into this conversation 403 00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:22,919 Speaker 1: at least for a minute, and Jalen hurts. It's the 404 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:26,439 Speaker 1: designed runs. It's not that they can scramble, it's that 405 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 1: they have offenses that give them eight nine, ten, twelve 406 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:36,199 Speaker 1: rushing attempts in a game. Totally changes the landscape. You know, 407 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 1: there used to be times when you could go with 408 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:43,159 Speaker 1: you could go with a just a scrambling quarterback who 409 00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:46,080 Speaker 1: would periodically, you know, get out of the pocket and 410 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:49,359 Speaker 1: run fifteen yards down field. And but these guys are 411 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:53,359 Speaker 1: getting designed runs that are breaking defenses and giving you 412 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 1: opportunities for big gains and rushing touchdowns. And that's just 413 00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:00,880 Speaker 1: a it's a key differential. And the butter fly effect 414 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 1: on the Allen's Mahomes hurtzes. And then even justin fields 415 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:11,160 Speaker 1: going in the third round is creating a panic almost 416 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 1: in the draft in draft rooms at the quarterback position. 417 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:18,199 Speaker 1: There are now fourteen quarterbacks going inside the top one 418 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 1: hundred picks. And that's that's you know, yeah, that's factoring 419 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 1: in Justin Herbert, who's not a mob like think about 420 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,400 Speaker 1: last year we were saying wait until after round ten 421 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,159 Speaker 1: to even think about taking your first quarterback, and now 422 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 1: there are fourteen quarterbacks going inside the top one because 423 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:35,200 Speaker 1: people are reaching on the early on these elite quarterbacks, 424 00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:39,040 Speaker 1: and people are panicking to uh yeah, it's it's times 425 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,800 Speaker 1: have changed, just like that, the quarterback position. It's crazy. 426 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,679 Speaker 1: I think you're right, Um, if you do take the 427 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,159 Speaker 1: mobile quarterback early, do you feel like that changes in 428 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:50,120 Speaker 1: your mind in any way when you take that quarterbacks back, 429 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,879 Speaker 1: when you take it back up your second quarterback. You know, 430 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 1: if I go quarterback in the second round, I go 431 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:59,479 Speaker 1: get Josh Allen early, second round? Is it? What's your 432 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:01,800 Speaker 1: thinking on? And I need to take my next quarterback. 433 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,160 Speaker 1: In most cases, you know, you pay up for quar 434 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:09,240 Speaker 1: an elite quarterback and elite mobile quarterback. You're waiting to 435 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:12,240 Speaker 1: take your backup quarterback because you've invested so much in 436 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:16,359 Speaker 1: the quarterback position. If that quarterback goes belly up, odds 437 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 1: are your team goes with it. Right. It's not like 438 00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:24,360 Speaker 1: Zach Wilson is gonna save your team if you lose 439 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,119 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts. I know Zach Wilson it's not going to 440 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:30,119 Speaker 1: be a starting quarterback. But it also depends, you know, 441 00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 1: if if you're a backup quarterback, a quarterback slides too 442 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:36,400 Speaker 1: far in the draft and already have Jalen Hurts will 443 00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 1: be like, screw it, I'll take this quarterback. He's too 444 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:41,400 Speaker 1: cheap right here. But essentially, the more you pay a quarterback, 445 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:43,480 Speaker 1: the more you pay up, the longer you wait for 446 00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:49,639 Speaker 1: your backup. Yeah, there are some intriguing mobile quarterbacks that 447 00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:53,120 Speaker 1: should be cheap. Will levis the rookie. He's a very 448 00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:57,399 Speaker 1: mobile quarterback that you could get late. We mentioned Trey Lance. 449 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 1: It seems like he knows what is situation. But he's 450 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 1: actually one of those top or those quarterbacks going to 451 00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:07,639 Speaker 1: top one. He's like people are, yeah, you know with 452 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:10,640 Speaker 1: brock Purty putting out, you know, his elbow still hasn't ready, 453 00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 1: he still hasn't had the surgery that we all thought 454 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 1: he would have had by now. If this thing could 455 00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 1: really drag out where brock Purdy's not ready for the 456 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 1: start of next year and Trey Lance gets first crack 457 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 1: at winning that job, he becomes pretty intriguing as a 458 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 1: as a flyer Light and Jordan Love He's got some mobility. 459 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:32,679 Speaker 1: I'm just intrigued with him overall because it sure seems 460 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 1: like Roger Richardson does. We'll find his land. Richardson doesn't 461 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:39,240 Speaker 1: seem like the I think Levis feels like the quarterback 462 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,119 Speaker 1: that would get Richardson seems like the quarterback they whoever 463 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,119 Speaker 1: drafts him he just has to be on the bench 464 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:50,880 Speaker 1: for but he certainly has uh you know, he's got 465 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:54,359 Speaker 1: some mobility that has people talking, all right, So give 466 00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 1: me a simple yes no. In a one quarterback league, Brian, 467 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:03,080 Speaker 1: for you personally and the drafts you're already doing best 468 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:06,960 Speaker 1: ball drafts, are you prioritizing a rushing quarterback in one 469 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:12,720 Speaker 1: quarterback leagues? I am, I'm right now. I'm not reaching 470 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 1: in the first half of the first round, which were 471 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 1: I think we could see these quarterbacks move up to 472 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,920 Speaker 1: but right now I will. You can call it prioritize 473 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 1: getting one. If I have a late first round pick, 474 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:26,560 Speaker 1: I'll take one in the second early second round. Okay, 475 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,480 Speaker 1: And it's really right now, I'm only really talking best ball. 476 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 1: But if I'm grabbing Stefan Diggs or A J. Brown, 477 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,240 Speaker 1: or if Travis Kelcey manages to slip in the five 478 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:40,000 Speaker 1: six seven range, I'll gladly pair one of those ais 479 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,919 Speaker 1: with Mahomes, who I know is not super mobile, but 480 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:44,800 Speaker 1: he's mobile enough. But it's really the hurts in the 481 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:47,879 Speaker 1: Allen's Well, I've just found you know, you looked in 482 00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:51,000 Speaker 1: the playoffs in all my leagues or teams I had 483 00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:54,879 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts justin Fields, Josh Allen, those are the teams 484 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,680 Speaker 1: that were competing in the fantasy playoffs last year. They 485 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 1: were for the most part. And Jalen Hurts he got 486 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:04,200 Speaker 1: hurt at the wrong time. If you remember lying on 487 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 1: Jalen hurds and that was me. But uh yeah, but 488 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:09,880 Speaker 1: that's just that was just bad luck. I think, um, 489 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:15,200 Speaker 1: super flex, are you prioritizing rushing quarterbacks? Yeah, me too. 490 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,240 Speaker 1: Think about this. Could you come out of the first 491 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:20,439 Speaker 1: two rounds you're picking end of the first round in 492 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 1: super flex, Josh Allen, Jalen Hurts, I don't think so. 493 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 1: You don't think you can pull it off. You think 494 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:30,359 Speaker 1: those guys will be mean, that's like those are that 495 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,440 Speaker 1: maybe one two right there in super flex? Yeah, yeah, 496 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 1: you're probably right. It's all they're they're gonna go. I 497 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 1: think you see Justin Fields go at the end of 498 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 1: the first round at letist in a super flex draft. 499 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 1: You're probably right. Two quarterback leagues, now everybody's you know, 500 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:46,880 Speaker 1: now the you know, eight of the first ten are 501 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:51,159 Speaker 1: going to be quarterbacks for sure. Um do you prioritize 502 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:52,760 Speaker 1: it there? You're like, well, at this point there's no 503 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:54,600 Speaker 1: value to be had and I'm gonna just I'm gonna 504 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:58,199 Speaker 1: slough it. Now. You gotta reach for you got it? 505 00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:02,360 Speaker 1: Especially in two mandatory quarter back leagues, Yeah, you gotta. Yeah. 506 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 1: Those are the ones where you see Daniel Jones going 507 00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:07,280 Speaker 1: in the second round before you know a team he's 508 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,520 Speaker 1: going to be on, which tells you that you're you 509 00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 1: might be playing a system that's a little broken. But 510 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,439 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones that those rushing numbers were that you know 511 00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:19,119 Speaker 1: it made him a viable fantasy starter this year. I 512 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 1: will say though I've I've kind of been advocating pairing 513 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:26,919 Speaker 1: Josh Allen's Jalen Hurts with their top wide receiver. I 514 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:28,480 Speaker 1: don't go out of my way to do that though, 515 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 1: as much with like the statuesque quarterbacks, those are the 516 00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:32,719 Speaker 1: ones that really lock in on their number one guy. 517 00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 1: The mobile quarterbacks that are kind of they'll find whoever's open. Really, 518 00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 1: so it's not a you call that running a quarterback 519 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:42,480 Speaker 1: naked like I'll go naked Jalen Hurts meaning you're not 520 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 1: don't pair him with any of your and you could 521 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 1: easily get away doing that too. I'm more susceptible best ball. 522 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 1: You're looking for all these big upside connections. I think 523 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 1: in a standard league it's maybe more advisable to not 524 00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 1: have that connection, and the league it's critical to not 525 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:02,440 Speaker 1: have that connection absolutely. So you know, I think you 526 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 1: have to know your know your format a little bit. 527 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 1: All right, tons of fun. Yeah, hey, next week, let's 528 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:10,240 Speaker 1: we're going to dive into rookies. Next week, the combines 529 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:13,280 Speaker 1: coming around, we'll talk about start getting up to speed 530 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,240 Speaker 1: on the rookies. We really care about who's going to 531 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:18,240 Speaker 1: make an impact um and start. You know, let's really 532 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 1: start our deep diving rookies other than Bijean Robinson. Yeah, 533 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 1: we're he won't even mention him. He's a little rare. 534 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:26,920 Speaker 1: He's like he's the one oh one in a super 535 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 1: flex startup. Most most years it's a quarterback. Last year 536 00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 1: it wasn't a quarterback, but yeah, the right landing spot. 537 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 1: Robinson's got first overall pick upside. If you remember back 538 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 1: to Zeke's rookie year, I had him number one on 539 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 1: my cheat sheet and he finished close to number one. 540 00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:50,960 Speaker 1: Se Quons year I had him add or close to 541 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 1: number one. You know, if Robinson finds it fine, you know, 542 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 1: falls into the right spot. Like I think Joe Mixon 543 00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:59,480 Speaker 1: looked totally cooked. If the Bengals do end up moving 544 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 1: on him, on Bijean Robinson and and that's it, can't 545 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 1: argue it. Think about the Bengals with adding him in, 546 00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 1: oh Man, that would be so enticing. Same with the Chiefs, 547 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:15,719 Speaker 1: you know, that's the Chiefs though. You almost worry about 548 00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:20,520 Speaker 1: how many touchdowns Patrick Mahomes leaves behind, because the Chiefs 549 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 1: with Patrick Molomes have never been able to get consistent 550 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 1: touchdown production or even yardage production out of a running 551 00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 1: back since Patrick Mahomes has been there. Yeah, he wasn't. 552 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:36,160 Speaker 1: Kareem Hunt was. Sam was the year before him? Right? 553 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:39,400 Speaker 1: Was that Alex Smith? That was an Alex Smith year? Yeah, 554 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 1: Mahomes until weeks they had a meaningless week seventeen Holmes 555 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:47,239 Speaker 1: played in and then that was it. Yeah, and then 556 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:50,680 Speaker 1: obviously everything took off. Uh, thanks Bran, Yeah, sounds of fun. 557 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 1: Appreciate you listening, everybody. We'll be back next week.
