Speaker 1: Lolly here Matt Williamson. At the previous hour we were

5
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 1: talking about Ben Roethlisberger at the quarterback position. Mike Sando

6
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 1: from the Athletic does got great work there, um, friend

7
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 1: of the show, friend of the show, longtime ESPN buddy

Speaker 1: of mine too, And then I hooked you up with

9
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 1: your Hall of Fame stuff with him. He's a great dude.

10
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:18,640
Speaker 1: So you guys have met as well. Yeah, he's Actually

11
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: I do the I had the uh I still use

12
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:25,319
Speaker 1: it on my uh my Live questions every week. A

13
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 1: picture of me talking to Troy Paula Malloho two years

14
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 1: ago at the super Bow. Yeah, Mike took the picture him. So. Yeah.

15
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,959
Speaker 1: But he does his tears with quarterbacks and he pulls

16
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,119
Speaker 1: he's not with the Athletic for people looking for him. Man,

17
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 1: he pulls gms around the fifty of the fifty gms

18
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:44,399
Speaker 1: and coaches and that kind of stuff and says, Okay,

19
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 1: who are the what are the tears for quarterbacks? We'll

20
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 1: get a good read here on on what Yeah and I,

21
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 1: coaches and GMS think of Ben Roethlisberger is supposed to

22
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 1: what the national media thinks of Ben roeth We think

23
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,480
Speaker 1: about the one segment, But I mean it gets really

24
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 1: worth digging into more than just Ben of course, and

25
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 1: who's on the rise? Why those type of things, because

26
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 1: I really do think this is a pretty accurate judgment

27
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 1: of what the league thinks of these quarterbacks at this stage.

28
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 1: So Tier one, number one is Aaron Rodgers. Yes, I'm

29
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 1: seeing this for the first time. He's actually a tie

30
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,240
Speaker 1: for one. He tied with Patrick Mahome. They each got

31
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 1: fifty votes. Um, the only just to pull back the curtain.

32
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,360
Speaker 1: I was getting in the car today at home and

33
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 1: I was listening to podcast has Always just started, and

34
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,959
Speaker 1: it's Mike on the Athletics podcast, and I'm like, oh,

35
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,520
Speaker 1: his tears came out today. So I ran upstairs the computer,

36
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 1: cut and pasted it emailed to you. So I heard

37
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 1: twenty minutes of podcast in the on the road here

38
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,080
Speaker 1: and the one note that you know, sw didn't get

39
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:50,400
Speaker 1: real fart on the list. So a lot of these

40
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,960
Speaker 1: are really organic to me. But one thing that they

41
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 1: did say was even when Rogers was quote struggling, you know,

42
00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 1: when they were drafting Jordan's love. The league never changed

43
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 1: their opinion that he was always this high. And Mahomes

44
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 1: has really lived there too. Yeah, and he's he's also

45
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:13,640
Speaker 1: that they're both tied for for the top number three.

46
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,519
Speaker 1: He got votes uh in Tier one, two votes in

47
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:23,799
Speaker 1: tier two. Uh. Tom Brady, he's not a Tier one

48
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,760
Speaker 1: A little. He's just not. Frankly, I don't know where

49
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 1: Ben is. I don't know where the other old guys are,

50
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 1: but I have followed this article for many years. The

51
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 1: old guys get a little more respect than maybe they

52
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 1: deserve it. He just wanted super Bowl see it. Yeah,

53
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 1: and he's got a two handsfuls of rings. I mean,

54
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 1: I get it. And what do you accomplished last year?

55
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 1: Is remarkable? But there's names that you're going to say

56
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 1: that I would rather not play again. Like if you

57
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 1: took Tom Brady and put him on pick a team,

58
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: most teams, most teams last year? If he went to Seattle,

59
00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 1: is he did? Did did they win the Super Bowl? No?

60
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 1: Probably not. No, he'd have been undersiege. Uh. You know,

61
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 1: the the weapons were good, but not what Tampa Bay had.

62
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 1: Sure you know, so I think it was certainly elevates

63
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 1: those around him. Still there's and what he brings off

64
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:16,720
Speaker 1: the fields unjudgable. But I don't know a couple names

65
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 1: you're gonna mention I would rather play against. But they

66
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:22,840
Speaker 1: also the Lamars and Josh Allen's and those type of

67
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 1: guys they want. These judges also are a little hard

68
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,960
Speaker 1: on them to bump him a tier like see one

69
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 1: more year, and they're a little slow to pull the

70
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 1: veterans down a tier. Uh. Number four he got forty

71
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 1: Tier one votes, ten Tier two votes is Russell Wilson.

72
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:44,480
Speaker 1: He struggled the end of last year and a new coordinator. Um,

73
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 1: but that's where i'd have them too. I mean, he'd

74
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 1: definitely be in my top five. You don't want to

75
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,600
Speaker 1: you don't like to play against him? No, no, And

76
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 1: I think he was a Tier one guy last year

77
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:58,160
Speaker 1: he was still Yeah, Number five, he got twenty six

78
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:00,880
Speaker 1: votes in Tier one. He got any three votes in

79
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:06,719
Speaker 1: Tier two, one vote in Tier three. M Deshaun Watson

80
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 1: good a vote in tier three, Tier three. Come on,

81
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:15,839
Speaker 1: I mean, I know that he's hard to talk about

82
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:19,280
Speaker 1: at the moment, but all these quarterback lists, most of

83
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 1: them have him on it like that made me crazy,

84
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,360
Speaker 1: Like he still exists. He's going to be a quarterback somewhere.

85
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:28,280
Speaker 1: You gotta put him on the list. And with all

86
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,239
Speaker 1: respect to Brady, I'd rather play against Brady than Watson. Yeah,

87
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,600
Speaker 1: I mean, if you flop those two situations last year,

88
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 1: holy smokes, right, yeah, you know what I mean. Yeah, Okay,

89
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:38,920
Speaker 1: that starts, that ends Tier one. So you have five

90
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 1: guys in Tier one, Tier two. I think last year

91
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 1: was only two and Tier one from what I remember now,

92
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 1: there was more than that because Watson was in there. Watson,

93
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 1: Watson was in there, Wilson was in there. I was thinking,

94
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:51,160
Speaker 1: it's just my homes and Wilson, but maybe they were

95
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 1: one and Rogers they're released from because he has his

96
00:05:56,520 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 1: last year's listing. Okay, so tier two, uh, Josh Allen

97
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 1: leads it off. He got twenty votes in Tier one,

98
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:07,040
Speaker 1: he got thirty votes in tier two. Last year he

99
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 1: was in Tier three. This is what I was kind

100
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 1: of commenting on, like Sando was saying on the podcast,

101
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:16,080
Speaker 1: like when he talked to the GMS and voters, most

102
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:18,240
Speaker 1: just said, show me it one more year and you're

103
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 1: a Tier one guy. You know, I mean, and once

104
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 1: in a while he still makes the bone headed play

105
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,880
Speaker 1: where he thinks he's Superman. But he's come such a

106
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 1: long way in such a short amount of time. One

107
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 1: more consistent year and then you're like locked in that

108
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,719
Speaker 1: Tier one area. For the twenty first tier votes, Allen

109
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,280
Speaker 1: received her five more than the combined total for all

110
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: the quarterbacks ranked below him. That's his lot, which also

111
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 1: includes the next guy, Lamar Jackson. Yeah, you get tier

112
00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:47,600
Speaker 1: two guy for me. Though he got four Tier one votes,

113
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:49,720
Speaker 1: so he got four of the five. He wasn't even

114
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:51,000
Speaker 1: in tier one after he won the m v P.

115
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 1: He was in tier two last year. Yeah uh, he

116
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:57,600
Speaker 1: got four votes in tier one, thirty eight votes in

117
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:01,040
Speaker 1: Tier two, eight votes in tier three. Tier three is

118
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:02,840
Speaker 1: a little rough for me concerning the impact he has

119
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 1: on the game. But there are some old school voters

120
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 1: here that he doesn't throw well from the pond. What

121
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 1: do you do from you know, can you play actually

122
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,920
Speaker 1: play quarterback the way you know we want to play

123
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 1: back in right? Um? You know it is what it is.

124
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,560
Speaker 1: He's a dangerous guy running with the ball as a passer.

125
00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 1: He is still I mean, I think it's a bit

126
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 1: of a work in progress, crossroads a year from him

127
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 1: as a pass or two because now that they have

128
00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:32,600
Speaker 1: better receivers or you know, these conceivers better. Yeah, presumably,

129
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:41,120
Speaker 1: Uh tied with Lamar Jackson. Is Matthew Stafford very different?

130
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,360
Speaker 1: He got four Tier one votes. He got thirty eight

131
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 1: Tier two votes, eight Tier three votes. Yeah. I'm a believer.

132
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 1: I think the NFL is a believer. I'm a believer.

133
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 1: We'll see. I mean it's a perfect situation of, well,

134
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 1: what if Brady with a different team, you know, if

135
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 1: Brady had been with the Lions last year. I mean,

136
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 1: I think for Stafford is going to change much from

137
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 1: last year to this year. But what we his production

138
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 1: might The weapons are better, the scheme is better, the

139
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 1: defense is better, everything's better. Uh number nine. He got

140
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 1: one Tier one vote, forty one and Tier two eight

141
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 1: and Tier three Deck Prescott. Wow, I like him a lot.

142
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I think he showed how valuable he was

143
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 1: when he was missing about Prescier one. Someone gave him

144
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 1: Tier one, Like, I don't know what he was putting up.

145
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:32,839
Speaker 1: It's almost a fantasy rating for him, because he was

146
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,840
Speaker 1: putting up ridiculous yards last year because they were behind

147
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 1: and he he was part of the reason why they

148
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 1: were behind. They were making bone headed mistakes early in

149
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,839
Speaker 1: games and getting way behind. The Dallas season doesn't get

150
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 1: talked about enough, especially even while he was in there.

151
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 1: They had every game was like forty five to forty four,

152
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:56,000
Speaker 1: and he was throwing unbelievable numbers, as you said, and

153
00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 1: it wasn't all his fault. It actually was more Zeke's fault.

154
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:04,720
Speaker 1: Their turnover show was unbelievably bad through ten twelve games,

155
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 1: so not all of it was him, and their defense

156
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:13,440
Speaker 1: had mental error after mental air of guys just running

157
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:18,079
Speaker 1: free in the secondary. Like really strange situation. Yeah, I mean,

158
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 1: I look at it. Prescott played five games last year.

159
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,960
Speaker 1: He had four interceptions, but he probably had a million attempts.

160
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 1: He was also sacked ten times. How many fumbles did

161
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:30,679
Speaker 1: he lose? The line? People are falling left and right

162
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 1: to um because fumbles have always been have always been

163
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 1: the issue him. So he had a lot of fumbles

164
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:40,040
Speaker 1: last years. That fumbles, fumbles, I'm looking for fumbles. Here,

165
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 1: you're fumbling. I don't see the fumbles. Well here they

166
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:47,319
Speaker 1: are there. He had three fumbles in five games last games.

167
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,200
Speaker 1: That's who he is. Yeah, So he was part of

168
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,680
Speaker 1: the issue with that, you know, protecting the ball in

169
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 1: the pocket or protecting the ball in the pocket. So

170
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:56,960
Speaker 1: he threw four interceptions in five games and also fumbled

171
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: three times. That's seven seven times that he put the

172
00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:02,440
Speaker 1: ball on harm's way in five games. He was part

173
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,880
Speaker 1: of the issue there. I do think he's properly ranked

174
00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:07,480
Speaker 1: on this list, though, and if I were Jerry Jones,

175
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,199
Speaker 1: I would not have hesitated to give him money, I mean,

176
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,840
Speaker 1: even coming off an injury. Okay, this is where things

177
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:18,720
Speaker 1: get interesting. Tied for ninth is justin Herbert. He got

178
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 1: four Tier one votes to thirty seven Tier two votes

179
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 1: and in seven Tier three votes. Four votes in Tier

180
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 1: two now or two votes in Tier four. I should

181
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:35,080
Speaker 1: say four is too low for Yeah, one and two

182
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 1: to me are too high Tier one and two. Yeah,

183
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 1: tier one is way too high. I can see. Okay,

184
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 1: he's a he's a solid three here. I want to

185
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 1: see it again. This is what happened with Baker Mayfield

186
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,319
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, and he had he put

187
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,320
Speaker 1: up good numbers, and all of a sudden he's ranked

188
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,960
Speaker 1: in Tier two. I'm like, he's not a Tier two guy. Baker.

189
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,440
Speaker 1: The last eight games of his rookie season he tore

190
00:10:56,559 --> 00:11:00,160
Speaker 1: up and frankly, none of it really mattered because they're

191
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,000
Speaker 1: all bad defenses and he was on a bad team.

192
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:06,199
Speaker 1: And the previous segment when when Herbert played against those

193
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:13,000
Speaker 1: those defenses, he struggled, He struggled. This isn't what the

194
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 1: list is about. But if we're drafting quarterbacks, who do

195
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:20,200
Speaker 1: I want from now going forward? He's higher on this list.

196
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 1: But that's not the extra that's not who are you?

197
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 1: What are you right now? Right right? It's a little rich. Yeah.

198
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 1: I just there's gonna be some guys here below him,

199
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 1: and like, Okay, if I had to win a game

200
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:34,640
Speaker 1: right now, I'm taking that guy. Yeah, because they've done it.

201
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:39,680
Speaker 1: Of the guys you mentioned, Josh Allen and Herbert, to me,

202
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 1: both could take us. I don't think it's crazy to

203
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:46,959
Speaker 1: envision them taking a step backwards and not say you

204
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,720
Speaker 1: still wouldn't love them or they're not super talented. But

205
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 1: I don't know that they're all just gonna keep going forward,

206
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 1: going forward, going forward. That's it's not how quarterback progression

207
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 1: works over career. Teams will figure what out what you

208
00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:58,760
Speaker 1: can and can't do, and they're gonna make you do

209
00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 1: what you can't do. Yeah, I mean i'd like Herbert

210
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:04,080
Speaker 1: A Ton and he blows me away. But there's he

211
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,200
Speaker 1: didn't in Oregon one year ago. I didn't love him, right, Yeah,

212
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:11,440
Speaker 1: I mean number eleven is Matt Ryan. He got thirty

213
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:16,760
Speaker 1: two Tier two votes. He got eighteen Tier three votes. Yeah.

214
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 1: I don't love Matt Ryan. I don't. I've always thought

215
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 1: that he's been perennially underrated. You know, if you just

216
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 1: look at his career, I think is anymore. I don't either.

217
00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:28,679
Speaker 1: I think he's fine. I think he's turning into Joe Flacco.

218
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:33,680
Speaker 1: Oh that's a little rough. I mean I think he's

219
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 1: I think he's a statue in the pocket. I think

220
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:39,800
Speaker 1: they struggled to protect him and he's not an overwhelming

221
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 1: pass or They're not gonna have a running game this year.

222
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:44,640
Speaker 1: It's gonna be all on him. I think this could

223
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:47,839
Speaker 1: go really badly for Matt Ryan. It could because he

224
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:51,960
Speaker 1: could be a bad doesn't have a UM. So I

225
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 1: guess they can get out of his contract next year.

226
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,600
Speaker 1: Would you be any interest if he's just see no, No,

227
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:00,600
Speaker 1: I think I knew the I don't want to see

228
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:03,559
Speaker 1: him throwing it Weather. He's always struggled and Weather he's

229
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 1: from Philly too, but he's always struggled. I just remember

230
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 1: watching him, and maybe this is kind of why if

231
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 1: I feel about him the way that I do. They

232
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:15,320
Speaker 1: the Falcons played here would have been I don't know,

233
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:21,320
Speaker 1: seven eight years and watching him throw an out, I

234
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:24,080
Speaker 1: mean the ball was dropping on his out. So I'm like,

235
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 1: he just doesn't have great prime. That was when he

236
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:30,480
Speaker 1: was in his prime. He's a dome quarterback. Yeah, I'd

237
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 1: like him a lot, and I do think he's had

238
00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:33,800
Speaker 1: an underrated career and I actually think he'll be an

239
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:37,559
Speaker 1: interesting Hall of Fame conversation because he's a compiler. He's

240
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 1: put up a lot of stats over the years, and

241
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:41,760
Speaker 1: maybe if he beats the Patriots in that Super Bowl,

242
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,680
Speaker 1: if he does that, then he's probably But he didn't.

243
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 1: But in the end, like, is he Carson Palmer? Like

244
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 1: I probably rather Palmer. Yeah, Palmer much better athletically, he's

245
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:58,839
Speaker 1: more gifted. Yeah. Number twelve, he got thirty Tier two votes.

246
00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:01,960
Speaker 1: He got eighteen Tier three re votes. Four votes in

247
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 1: tier are two votes in Tier four. I did that again, Uh,

248
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray Tier four. It's a little rough that's a

249
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 1: little rough on him. I mean, considering the weapon he is,

250
00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:17,840
Speaker 1: I'd rather I'd rather have him right now than Ryan. Yeah,

251
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,240
Speaker 1: i'd rather have him. I don't know that Ryan and

252
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 1: Ben are much different. By the way, would you rather

253
00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:27,720
Speaker 1: have him or Herbert right now? Herbert? That's close. It

254
00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:32,400
Speaker 1: is one thing about Kyler I blame his coaching staff

255
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:34,200
Speaker 1: a little bit, like I don't know that Kingsbury's gonna

256
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,000
Speaker 1: be there a year from now. I don't know that

257
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:40,480
Speaker 1: they everything sideways and bombs like they He's a better

258
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 1: pastor than that. I don't think he needs to be

259
00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:44,520
Speaker 1: cradled as much as they do. I think there's some

260
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 1: talent there and he and he also he's a better

261
00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 1: pastor of the football. He's a great pastor than Lamarva

262
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:55,480
Speaker 1: Jackson by far, and he's nearly his equal as a runner. Yeah,

263
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,400
Speaker 1: his size worries me. His size worries you. But if

264
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:00,600
Speaker 1: you if you've got to prepare for one of those two,

265
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 1: I think Kyler Murray is a tougher guy to prepare

266
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 1: for than Lamar Jackson because of the way he throws

267
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 1: the football. With the only exception of I think the

268
00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:11,040
Speaker 1: Ravens get way more out of Lamar than Arizona gets

269
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:14,360
Speaker 1: out of Kyli. That the two of them, Kyler Murray

270
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:16,440
Speaker 1: scary like, I don't know what the Steelers would like

271
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 1: that or our listeners would like that. Because he is

272
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,800
Speaker 1: a better passer for sure. He's first overall pick, I mean,

273
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 1: and deserved to be his only negative as he short. Yeah,

274
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,920
Speaker 1: you know so now I like him a lot. I

275
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:32,560
Speaker 1: just think he's slightly being wasted and not being cultivated

276
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 1: as well as he could be. We'll see thirteen is Uh.

277
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,040
Speaker 1: He got twenty seven votes in tier two. He got

278
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:43,600
Speaker 1: twenty three votes in Tier three. Uh, Ryan Tannehill, I

279
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:45,400
Speaker 1: think that's where he belongs to. I mean, it's real

280
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 1: easy to say the system helps him so much, but

281
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 1: he makes the throws he's supposed to make. They win

282
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 1: a lot of games. Um, he has some athleticism. Getting

283
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 1: away from Adam Gaze was really good for him. He's

284
00:15:57,960 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 1: a good player, Yeah, he's a good player. He's a

285
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:03,280
Speaker 1: good player. Um, not a great player, but a good player. Yeah.

286
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 1: To me, it would be ten to thirteen neighborhood, you know,

287
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:09,080
Speaker 1: ahead of the Cousins and cars who we haven't got

288
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:12,040
Speaker 1: to quite yet, but not as talented as a lot

289
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 1: of the guys ahead of him, the Herbert's and you

290
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 1: know Murray's and those type of guys. He's a good player. Yeah,

291
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 1: we're gonna take a break. We're doing Mike Sandos quarterback

292
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:25,560
Speaker 1: Tears Ryan too. Yeah. Yeah, uh he is. Matt Williamson.

298
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 1: Sandos us. Yeah. We just did a number fourteen, which

299
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:08,679
Speaker 1: was the No, we haven't done fourteen yet. Fourteen is

300
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:12,640
Speaker 1: the last guy in Tier two and that is Joe Burrow.

301
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:14,800
Speaker 1: It's a little rich. It's a little rich for me.

302
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:20,400
Speaker 1: He got twenty seven Tier two votes, seventeen Tier three votes, uh,

303
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:23,600
Speaker 1: six votes in Tier four. He was in Tier two

304
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:27,159
Speaker 1: last year. He didn't played a snap yet. Wow, I

305
00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:29,879
Speaker 1: didn't realize even that he ranked rookies. That's not fair.

306
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:31,760
Speaker 1: That's not fair at all, and it's I don't know

307
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:35,200
Speaker 1: that it's fair to rank Burrow. He played in eleven

308
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:38,560
Speaker 1: games last year he started ten of them. He was

309
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:42,000
Speaker 1: to seven and one. I think he's somebody the Steeler

310
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:45,399
Speaker 1: fans should fear, and it's gonna be a problem for

311
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 1: twelve years or so. I think you fear him, but

312
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 1: you don't fear the Bengals because of the organizational issues.

313
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:55,200
Speaker 1: That's why Carson Palmer wanted out of there. It takes

314
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:58,639
Speaker 1: a village to raise a quarterback, and his villages on

315
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:02,159
Speaker 1: fire as usual, you know. And maybe he can overcome it.

316
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:05,000
Speaker 1: I mean, Palmer was a tremendous prospect and a better

317
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:07,600
Speaker 1: prospect than Burrow and had success. And it's not like

318
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,360
Speaker 1: he was terrible there. But if Burrow has a Palmer

319
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:12,880
Speaker 1: like career, he should take it and run. I mean,

320
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:15,320
Speaker 1: that's about as good as it gets. He's also not

321
00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:18,040
Speaker 1: an overwhelming passer. I love his head, I mean I

322
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:20,119
Speaker 1: love him from the neck up. But to play in

323
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:22,520
Speaker 1: this area of the country for the next ten twelve years,

324
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:25,880
Speaker 1: there's gonna be times where he's throwing ounce that die

325
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:28,320
Speaker 1: on you and stuff like that. It's gonna be interesting

326
00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:31,760
Speaker 1: to watch that continue to progress. You uh, And he's

327
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,359
Speaker 1: not is he healthy yet? Yeah? We don't have it

328
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 1: right that ends tier two Tier three. Uh. Number fifteen

329
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:44,080
Speaker 1: is Derek Carr twenty two votes in tier two, he

330
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:47,320
Speaker 1: got twenty eight votes in tier three. I like Car.

331
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 1: I really feel like we know what he is. He's

332
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,840
Speaker 1: kind of the new Andy Dalton, but where he's in

333
00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:56,600
Speaker 1: the middle of the pack and the quarterbacks, that's what

334
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 1: he is. Way more talented though, and a much better

335
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:03,760
Speaker 1: pastor of the football. And I mean, he's not great

336
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:05,800
Speaker 1: under pressure. And I give Gruden a lot of credit

337
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:07,640
Speaker 1: for getting more and more out of Car every year.

338
00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,119
Speaker 1: It's really the best in Gruden's done as the Raiders coach.

339
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,359
Speaker 1: I always come back to Car maybe being the Steelers quarterback,

340
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 1: but then they traded the way their entire offensive line right,

341
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 1: because I think they're a portly run order Number sixteen.

342
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:26,600
Speaker 1: He got one vote in tier one. He got nineteen

343
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:30,159
Speaker 1: votes in tier two, he got twenty seven votes in

344
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 1: tier three. He got three votes in tier four. So

345
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 1: they're all there. Ben Roethlisberg, that adds up. That goes

346
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:44,960
Speaker 1: back to the lifelong respect thing, no offense, Ben, But

347
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:47,200
Speaker 1: that's the same argument of why Brady is a little

348
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 1: too high. I'm not saying Ben's too high on this list,

349
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:51,800
Speaker 1: but a Tier one vote is too high, you know,

350
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 1: because he's All of Famer. I mean, I think that's

351
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:57,359
Speaker 1: probably the logic. There's a couple of dudes we've mentioned

352
00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 1: that I put Ben ahead of, and you know, we

353
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:02,520
Speaker 1: had a good Matt Ryan Bend conversation off the air.

354
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,600
Speaker 1: I think the people who think he's washed up are bonkers.

355
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:10,440
Speaker 1: Read the comments on here, the comments the first guy said,

356
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:13,600
Speaker 1: and this comes from a defensive coordinator. They lost their

357
00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:15,359
Speaker 1: run game. He had a couple of guys heard on

358
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:17,200
Speaker 1: defense and it was up to Bend to carry them

359
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:20,119
Speaker 1: over the final five games, and he was terrible. He

360
00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 1: needs help at this stage of his career. Well, first

361
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:26,080
Speaker 1: of all, he didn't play the last game of last season.

362
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 1: He was good in the Colts game. Yes, he had

363
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:32,360
Speaker 1: a two bad games in a row, but those were

364
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:35,879
Speaker 1: the two games he had the stretch, and it coincided

365
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:38,440
Speaker 1: with the stretch where they played three games in eleven days.

366
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:43,680
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that had things too. That's when the downfall

367
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:45,760
Speaker 1: started there for him. I don't think he'll bring that

368
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:47,720
Speaker 1: up enough. I'm glad you mentioned that the three and

369
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:52,440
Speaker 1: eleven days thing is brutal. The playoff game against the Browns,

370
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 1: he didn't play well in the first half. But boy,

371
00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:57,639
Speaker 1: they started in a hole too. They started in a

372
00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:00,920
Speaker 1: hole with a snap over his head um. But then

373
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 1: and I think he started pressing. And then the second

374
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,120
Speaker 1: half he looked like like he did in the cold scheme.

375
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:09,400
Speaker 1: He had them within a score in that game where

376
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:11,720
Speaker 1: they were down twenty eight nothing at one point. I

377
00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 1: don't know to disagree with those comments though, that he

378
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,080
Speaker 1: had to carry them, like that's what needs to change,

379
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:21,679
Speaker 1: is to ask Ben to carry the team or the

380
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,879
Speaker 1: offense is bad business at this point. And I think

381
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,680
Speaker 1: it's pretty clear they recognize that. Yeah, here's what another

382
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 1: here's what another coach said. I'm looking here and see

383
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:35,480
Speaker 1: what he doesn't say. The the way their season ended

384
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:38,399
Speaker 1: created a bias in how people view the Steelers. I

385
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,000
Speaker 1: absolutely agree with that, and a negative bias. Sure what

386
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:44,399
Speaker 1: he means, right, Their defense got absolutely shredded by Cleveland.

387
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,720
Speaker 1: Ben completed forty seven passes from more than five yards

388
00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:50,520
Speaker 1: and four touchdowns. The pure player, he's a guy that

389
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:52,240
Speaker 1: can put a team on his back and win every

390
00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:57,119
Speaker 1: game on the schedule. Yeah, I think people recognize what

391
00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:59,879
Speaker 1: he I don't want to say was but what he

392
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,280
Speaker 1: kind of still is and has always been. He's still

393
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:04,800
Speaker 1: a guy that if you're if you're playing the Steelers

394
00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:08,119
Speaker 1: and you're the opposing team, you're gonna be fearful of

395
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:10,159
Speaker 1: him getting on one of these hot streaks and probably

396
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:14,240
Speaker 1: before and beating you. Yeah. Uh, there's another one here

397
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:16,360
Speaker 1: from a GM and this is a guy who put

398
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 1: him in Tier four, an executive who put him in

399
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,200
Speaker 1: tier four. When you're a statue, you have to get

400
00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:24,120
Speaker 1: rid of the ball quick. They did that. When you look,

401
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:26,400
Speaker 1: when you took that away, he could not do anything.

402
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:28,399
Speaker 1: Maybe he turns into a three if they get the

403
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:30,760
Speaker 1: run game going with not J Harris, but they have

404
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 1: an offensive coordinator has never called a play in the league,

405
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:34,919
Speaker 1: so I'm not sure what it will look like. I

406
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:39,920
Speaker 1: think Ben is almost to the nineteenth hole. Okay, I

407
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,200
Speaker 1: get all that. If they get the run game going,

408
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,440
Speaker 1: he could be a tier three guy. I think they're

409
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,879
Speaker 1: going to get the run game going. In fact, I

410
00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:49,400
Speaker 1: know they're going to. They're going to run the ball

411
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,360
Speaker 1: better than they did. Here's the thing. Their final ten

412
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:55,880
Speaker 1: games last year, they average fifty yards rushing per game.

413
00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:01,960
Speaker 1: Was scared that no one was worried. You know, he

414
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:05,280
Speaker 1: didn't trust it. Yeah, and that could happen this year.

415
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 1: Harris could fall forward fifteen times in a game and

416
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:12,719
Speaker 1: get more than fifty yards rushing, just falling forward as

417
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:14,439
Speaker 1: the line of s creates the worst old line in

418
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:17,159
Speaker 1: the league and he gets fifteen carries, us gonna get

419
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:20,720
Speaker 1: more than fifty yards? Yes, without question? Um, would you

420
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,760
Speaker 1: take it? If I said Ben's a true Tier three

421
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:27,119
Speaker 1: quarterback in two thousand twenty one, would you take it?

422
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:29,879
Speaker 1: Or would you throw back for door number two? I

423
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:32,399
Speaker 1: would I take Tier three because I think the defense

424
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:34,920
Speaker 1: is gonna be solid. It's not here We're talking Tannehill

425
00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,119
Speaker 1: and car and you know, I think what happened to

426
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:39,159
Speaker 1: the defense and is the one guy said the defense

427
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:43,720
Speaker 1: got shredded by Cleveland. There's some truth to that. No

428
00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:47,280
Speaker 1: Joe Hayden in that game. No Devon bush Uh, no

429
00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:51,439
Speaker 1: dupri I mean if you're taking three big time players

430
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:54,639
Speaker 1: off of that defense in that game, and the Browns

431
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:57,960
Speaker 1: had just played the Steelers the week before they saw

432
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 1: you know, so they got on the league and they

433
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 1: were playing with the which is not the way that

434
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,640
Speaker 1: you want to play them. It's all it's the same

435
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:07,399
Speaker 1: thing that happened against Jacksonville in two thousand seventeen. You

436
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:10,240
Speaker 1: can't get behind those teams. It's like the Ravens are

437
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:11,879
Speaker 1: the best example in the league. But the Browns are

438
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:14,919
Speaker 1: very much like that, at least for now. They need

439
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 1: to get up early, and they're good at it, you know,

440
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:20,200
Speaker 1: but that they if they have to play from behind,

441
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:22,879
Speaker 1: it's a completely different game because Baker doesn't handle the

442
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:25,159
Speaker 1: past or if it's even right, you know, and they

443
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 1: can't just Okay, we're gonna play action like crazy Baker Mayfield,

444
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:31,240
Speaker 1: What do you throw passes in that game? That's their

445
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 1: formula for winning. That's what they They played into the

446
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:36,920
Speaker 1: Brown's hands. Yeah. Um, I'm not disputing you're arguing about

447
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:39,800
Speaker 1: the three starters being out. That's big. But when you're

448
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:43,320
Speaker 1: in the playoffs, every defense, yeah, you know, I mean,

449
00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:46,119
Speaker 1: nobody's gonna Hey, the Browns are missing guys too, and

450
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:49,600
Speaker 1: killing their head coach. That's that's all part of it, um,

451
00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:53,439
Speaker 1: But I mean that's but they're also facts. Yeah, you know,

452
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:55,800
Speaker 1: by the way the offense turned it over a bunch

453
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:57,919
Speaker 1: of times. Now, the defense didn't help by giving up

454
00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:01,120
Speaker 1: some quick some quick touchdowns there the now, but I'll

455
00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:02,960
Speaker 1: give us the FASKI credit. They drew up some good

456
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:05,880
Speaker 1: plays to work against the Steelers defense, and you saw,

457
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:08,800
Speaker 1: you know again, not having Devon Bush in that game

458
00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:12,000
Speaker 1: to me was the that was huge. I know they

459
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:14,119
Speaker 1: got beat bad in that game. And I have a

460
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:15,720
Speaker 1: lot of respect for where the Browns are, and I

461
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:18,160
Speaker 1: think they're a scary team and a scary organization going

462
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 1: the right way. But I said this after the playoff games.

463
00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:22,240
Speaker 1: They play the game a hundred times. I think it's

464
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:26,800
Speaker 1: I think if Steelers wind't I was even leaning that

465
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:28,400
Speaker 1: way too, because that's what I felt at the time.

466
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:31,400
Speaker 1: It was not gonna change my attitude because they made

467
00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:33,359
Speaker 1: that's still I mean, they beat the Browns earlier in

468
00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:36,560
Speaker 1: the year at Hinesfield was the thirty seven six or

469
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,640
Speaker 1: whatever it was seven. They nearly beat them the week

470
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:43,480
Speaker 1: before without what without with with you know, yeah, the

471
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 1: game that was there to win. They're still the big

472
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:48,920
Speaker 1: brother mentality, you know. So I just think that game

473
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:50,840
Speaker 1: did not go well for the Steelers. And that's not

474
00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 1: making excuses. I mean, it's quite so hard to win

475
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:56,360
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. Yeah, absolutely, uh seventeen. This guy got

476
00:25:56,800 --> 00:26:00,639
Speaker 1: seventeen votes in Tier two, thirty three votes in Tier three.

477
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:05,640
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield. I'm open to the idea that he's getting better.

478
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:08,080
Speaker 1: I thought he finished the season very, very strong. But

479
00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:12,200
Speaker 1: this goes against the narrative that Roethlisberger is the worst

480
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 1: quarter the Mike tanney Hill narrative, not Mike tannem bomb.

481
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:19,520
Speaker 1: Ben Roethlisberger is easily the worst quarterback in the division

482
00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:24,960
Speaker 1: Division Well not if that's true. Yeah, good point, But

483
00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,920
Speaker 1: Baker's I think that's who he is. I mean, I

484
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:29,760
Speaker 1: think he can make a step to Tier two. Yeah,

485
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:31,600
Speaker 1: I think he's a Tier two guys if it all

486
00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:36,320
Speaker 1: works out. But it's one of these football outside or

487
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 1: Warren Sharp notes the Browns are the highest spending team

488
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:44,800
Speaker 1: in the league on the offensive line, on offensive spending.

489
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:47,440
Speaker 1: They spend by far the most of their offensive line,

490
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:49,760
Speaker 1: most of the offensive line, most on offense in the

491
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:52,320
Speaker 1: whole league. And that's not they They're not paying Nick Chubb.

492
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 1: They're two best, they're two best, They're best players on offense.

493
00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:58,399
Speaker 1: Are two skill guys. I should say they're not paying them,

494
00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 1: right Landry Beckham, who Bird? These guys are expensive and

495
00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:05,040
Speaker 1: the whole offensive line like that's not gonna be able

496
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,160
Speaker 1: to in another year or two. That's gonna flip because

497
00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:09,399
Speaker 1: they they're gonna have to pay Baker. Yeah. I mean

498
00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:12,880
Speaker 1: the point is they knew we're gonna put all resources

499
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,159
Speaker 1: into making Baker's life eas year because we know who

500
00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:16,919
Speaker 1: he is, you know, and we haven't gotten to the

501
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 1: guy who's the poster boy for overpaying quarterbacks. I'm guessing

502
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:24,680
Speaker 1: he's probably next on this list. Who were talking about

503
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:26,960
Speaker 1: GoF or when We'll get there in a second. But

504
00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:30,000
Speaker 1: here's what's Baker is probably in the in the two category,

505
00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 1: but you really don't know with him in a value

506
00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:33,480
Speaker 1: where they said they got a new head coach and

507
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:35,159
Speaker 1: they called it right, but they also didn't do as

508
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,760
Speaker 1: much as they could have with a legit quarterback. He's

509
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:41,159
Speaker 1: had an up and down career so far. Uh. And

510
00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:44,600
Speaker 1: I'm right about number eighteen. This guy got seven votes

511
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:47,720
Speaker 1: in tier two, forty three votes in tier three. It's

512
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,960
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins. I see who we're going that that's you

513
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:53,440
Speaker 1: know you're when you're paying him thirty plus thirty plus

514
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:55,919
Speaker 1: million dollars for Kirk Cousins and he's number eighteen on

515
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 1: this list. Baker Mayfield's one spot ahead of him, and

516
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:02,080
Speaker 1: I think because also is a good player. I mean

517
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:04,120
Speaker 1: like kind of how we're referred to Tannehill, but I'd

518
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:06,159
Speaker 1: rather tan Hill. Yeah, I mean I'm not Try'd rather

519
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:09,080
Speaker 1: have Tannehill by six or ten spots or whatever it

520
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:12,800
Speaker 1: is on here. But Cousins is okay. You know, like

521
00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 1: if the Steelers had Cousins with this defense and they

522
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:20,840
Speaker 1: had a running game, they'd be awfully good and they'd

523
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:25,080
Speaker 1: lose the Mahomes or Alan or Herbert, you know. I mean,

524
00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:28,159
Speaker 1: I'm talking about five years, the next five years, you know,

525
00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:32,359
Speaker 1: but that's you know, if if they were the same

526
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:35,400
Speaker 1: age right now, at this point in their career, at

527
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:37,960
Speaker 1: that point in his career, or let's say five years ago,

528
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:42,000
Speaker 1: it's Kirk Cousins because the age factors into it with

529
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:46,040
Speaker 1: the with the Vikings and Brown's trade. If you if

530
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:49,800
Speaker 1: you gave Stefanski true sierum, would he rather have her

531
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,560
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins running his offense or Baker Mayfield? You mean,

532
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:55,600
Speaker 1: like not worrying about the money, You're just talking about

533
00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:58,200
Speaker 1: it one day on straight up, straight up, here's your

534
00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:01,440
Speaker 1: guy Cousins. I'll bet Cousins too, because it might change

535
00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 1: in a year right the second. But I think if

536
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 1: you gave Stefanski true sierum because he coached Cousins and

537
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 1: hech Baker. He's seen him both. Cousins doesn't make the

538
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:12,320
Speaker 1: mistakes that Baker still makes. Right. I also think he

539
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 1: handles pressure better. Um. Baker's good, better thrower, But I

540
00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:19,160
Speaker 1: and you would hope as a Browns fan that changes.

541
00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 1: But right the second, I bet it's Cousins. And I

542
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:25,640
Speaker 1: also think it's really telling. Before stefans Giver worked with Mayfield,

543
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 1: the first thing he did was probably bringing his batcase

544
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:30,400
Speaker 1: Kingdom the backup him from there, because I think he

545
00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:32,520
Speaker 1: was worried about it. Yeah, I think so as well.

546
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:38,160
Speaker 1: But yeah, so it's interesting there. Number nineteen tied for nineteen.

547
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:41,320
Speaker 1: He got two votes or five votes in Tier two,

548
00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:44,160
Speaker 1: forty three votes in Tier three, two votes in Tier

549
00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 1: four is Jared Goff. Tier two is a little rich

550
00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:49,440
Speaker 1: for Jared Goff for me, but I also think I

551
00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:52,360
Speaker 1: feel for him a little bit because he's just he's

552
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:54,200
Speaker 1: the only thing that ever went wrong with the Rams.

553
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 1: He to him a Super Bowl. I mean, I know

554
00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:58,320
Speaker 1: that he's a product of the system, but you know

555
00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:01,800
Speaker 1: he's a little rough. One. Uh nineteen is Carson Wentz.

556
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:05,440
Speaker 1: He actually got nine votes in Tier two. I can't

557
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:07,600
Speaker 1: understand why they're still believer. He got six votes in

558
00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:10,480
Speaker 1: tier four. He was Twenty one is Jimmy Garoppolo. He

559
00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 1: got a Tier one vote. Somebody's on drugs. That must

560
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:15,960
Speaker 1: have been Yeah, that's he also got six votes in

561
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:20,560
Speaker 1: tier four. That's crazy. Twenty two is Daniel Jones. He

562
00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:25,720
Speaker 1: got a vote in Tier one, no votes at Tier two,

563
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:29,000
Speaker 1: twenty eight and tier three, twenty in Tier four and

564
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,640
Speaker 1: one vote in Tier five. One of your voters is

565
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 1: doing to ma jigs. Twenty three is Ryan Fitzpatrick. He

566
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:38,000
Speaker 1: got one vote in Tier two. I bet he's lower

567
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:41,000
Speaker 1: than that. Next he got three votes in tier five. Yeah,

568
00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:45,720
Speaker 1: that's career speaks for itself. I mean Sam Donald starts

569
00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:49,920
Speaker 1: tier four. He has been good. Yeah, he's twenty four.

570
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:51,960
Speaker 1: Jamis Winston is at twenty five. He got two tier

571
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:55,840
Speaker 1: vote two votes. Jamis Winston. Winston's closer to Winz than

572
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:59,320
Speaker 1: he is. A total buzzed uh. Teddy Bridgewater is the

573
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,920
Speaker 1: number twenty six. He got nineteen votes in Tier three,

574
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:06,240
Speaker 1: twenty seven votes in Tier four, five votes in tier five.

575
00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:08,320
Speaker 1: He's the definition of a Tier four guy to me.

576
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:13,280
Speaker 1: Cam Newton at seven he got nineteen votes in Tier three,

577
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 1: twenty six votes in Tier four, five votes in Tier five.

578
00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:18,960
Speaker 1: I can make a lot of excuses for Cam, but

579
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:20,680
Speaker 1: he was a bad player. He did not play well.

580
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:24,320
Speaker 1: Andy Dalton is number twenty eight. He got three. He

581
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:28,960
Speaker 1: got fourteen votes in Tier three based on what uh

582
00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:33,560
Speaker 1: TWA comes in at twenty nine right. He got four

583
00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:35,920
Speaker 1: votes in Tier three, forty four votes in tier four.

584
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:39,200
Speaker 1: That's it was his. Jalen Hurts comes in at thirty

585
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:42,120
Speaker 1: bad accuracy, but he only played three or four games.

586
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:49,200
Speaker 1: Thirty one is Drew lock who. Thirty two is Tyrod Taylor,

587
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:54,000
Speaker 1: he's very limited to Thirty three is Taysom Hill. I

588
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:55,960
Speaker 1: guess you gotta right. He got a Tier three vote

589
00:31:56,680 --> 00:32:00,600
Speaker 1: based on what. Thirty four is Joe Flacco, and that

590
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:02,720
Speaker 1: is the last guy ranked on there. Joe Flacco is

591
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 1: the only other guy that got votes. He got Tier three.

592
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,560
Speaker 1: Some of four people voted for Joe Flacco in Tier three.

593
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:10,600
Speaker 1: Some of the old guys gettled too much of the

594
00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:12,840
Speaker 1: benefit of doubt, including Ben's one vote for tier one.

595
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:15,600
Speaker 1: He had votes in tier four and twenty one votes

596
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:19,440
Speaker 1: in Tier five. Joe Flacco. I don't care what situation

597
00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:22,160
Speaker 1: he's in Tampa. I mean, if if Brady went down

598
00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:25,360
Speaker 1: and he stuck Flacco in there, they wouldn't be five hundred.

599
00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:28,000
Speaker 1: It would not be good in the city. They would

600
00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:33,720
Speaker 1: be one. But that's gonna do it for Uh. Mike Sandos, Yeah,

601
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:36,320
Speaker 1: they're good quarterback tier. Want to read and check it out? Yeah,

602
00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:38,760
Speaker 1: good stuff in there. Again, he talks to fifty different

603
00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:41,720
Speaker 1: talent evaluators across the NFL. But that's gonna do it

604
00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:43,200
Speaker 1: for this segment. When we come back, it will be

605
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:45,720
Speaker 1: time for the Fantasy Football Focus. We'll do that right

606
00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:53,760

Speaker 1: mock draft here. Uh this off of Fantasy pros dot

612
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:18,120
Speaker 1: COM's Draft Wizard. We're picking out of the four hole today.

613
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:19,960
Speaker 1: We haven't done this one yet. It's kind of no

614
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,520
Speaker 1: man's land generally speaking. I don't like that neck of

615
00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:24,960
Speaker 1: the woods. But here are the names of the teams.

616
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:27,680
Speaker 1: We always do this worth every Penny has the one spot,

617
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:33,080
Speaker 1: Multitrashking has the two spear that one. Uh number three

618
00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:35,840
Speaker 1: is the storm Hooper's. I think we've heard that one before.

619
00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:41,800
Speaker 1: UM number five word four. Number five is fields of Dreams.

620
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:43,960
Speaker 1: Uh six is the brown eyed Gurley. We've had that

621
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:46,760
Speaker 1: once before. The seventh spot is owned by the qut

622
00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:52,320
Speaker 1: Pies q Ta Pies. I guess eight is the Orange

623
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:55,880
Speaker 1: s Herbert's we've had that. Nine is the carry on

624
00:33:55,920 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 1: my Wayward Sons. Uh ten is the shaking Baker's. Levin

625
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:03,440
Speaker 1: is the bend It like Beckham's, and twelve is the

626
00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:06,320
Speaker 1: Lamb and Shepherd's. Some of needs to come up with

627
00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:10,280
Speaker 1: three names or three players all in one name, yeah,

628
00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:14,320
Speaker 1: and not and not reach too much that Yeah, that

629
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:15,920
Speaker 1: would be good. Maybe I'll think about that. I think

630
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:19,040
Speaker 1: about it. Yeah. So the top three picks were Dalvin Cook.

631
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:23,120
Speaker 1: I'm sorry Derrick Henry went number one overall. Wow to

632
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:26,840
Speaker 1: what was McCaffrey? Three was Dalvin Cook? Makes the choice

633
00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:30,480
Speaker 1: obvious for us, I think so, Yeah, I think if

634
00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:33,439
Speaker 1: Henry would have been there for us in instead that

635
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:36,879
Speaker 1: that becomes a different conversation. You gotta take Alvin Kamara. Yeah,

636
00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:39,360
Speaker 1: I think that's the obvious one if it was Henry

637
00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:45,120
Speaker 1: sitting there. So the picture rolling off the board here

638
00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:47,279
Speaker 1: and a lot of running backs went. I don't love

639
00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:50,600
Speaker 1: the second round spot here. Man, We're not gonna like

640
00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:53,759
Speaker 1: this at all because the picts right ahead of us

641
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:59,360
Speaker 1: to start. Uh, the first round went Kamara, Elliott, Chubb, Barkley, Taylor,

642
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:06,200
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill, Aaron Jones, Adams, Kelsey, Stefon Diggs, Aaron Gibson, Yeah,

643
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:10,600
Speaker 1: to two. J K. Dobbins too three, it's early for him.

644
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:13,640
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes to four. That one. I kind of like

645
00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:17,560
Speaker 1: Austin ekel R to five, Josh Jacobs to six, Joe

646
00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:20,240
Speaker 1: Mixing to seven, Chris Carson to eight. Actually, this doesn't

647
00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:23,880
Speaker 1: work out so badly for us. Nause Harris is still available.

648
00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:27,359
Speaker 1: I think you jump on that. Yeah, Josh Jacob's over

649
00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:30,600
Speaker 1: Nagy Harry, that's crazy. Yeah, a couple of those, even

650
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:34,160
Speaker 1: Dobbins likes. All right, we're back up here again. Now, Okay,

651
00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:37,880
Speaker 1: so we've gone running back. Running back DeAndre Hopkins still available.

652
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:41,040
Speaker 1: It's pretty strong. That's pretty strong. The top suggested player

653
00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:44,680
Speaker 1: for us is Hopkins, with A J. Brown right behind him,

654
00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:49,920
Speaker 1: and Waller or Kid available Kiddles available. I don't trust Kittle.

655
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:53,440
Speaker 1: He plays so hard place too hard. Yeah, that's what

656
00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:55,239
Speaker 1: I mean. And then he comes back early when he

657
00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:58,640
Speaker 1: guys get injured. And it was a foot issue that

658
00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:00,360
Speaker 1: he had last year, and that's scared as me a

659
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:03,200
Speaker 1: little bit. With tight end, they kept beating. I had

660
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:06,640
Speaker 1: Waller ranked ahead of him for fantasy. Hopkins and Brown

661
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:10,080
Speaker 1: are really enticing. Yeah, which one do you like better?

662
00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:15,439
Speaker 1: Hopkins or Brown? A J. I think the big play

663
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:19,120
Speaker 1: potential is big, like Hopkins is great. Their careers are

664
00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:23,000
Speaker 1: going probably different different directions there. Hopkins is awesome, though,

665
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:26,080
Speaker 1: I mean, guy gets hunter fifty targets a year or whatever,

666
00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:28,040
Speaker 1: no matter where he goes. I mean, neither would make

667
00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:30,759
Speaker 1: me mad. But I think I'd go Brown. Okay, A J.

668
00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:34,480
Speaker 1: Brown it is. I like that. I like where this

669
00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:36,600
Speaker 1: is going on. Yeah that's a good start. Yeah, I

670
00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:40,560
Speaker 1: didn't think I would like it. Not so bad. Okay,

671
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:44,560
Speaker 1: we're back up here again, and we're at four nine.

672
00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:46,800
Speaker 1: The picture Right ahead of us were Julio Jones and

673
00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:49,759
Speaker 1: Maury Cooper. Chris Godwin, Kyler Murray also going ahead of

674
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:54,000
Speaker 1: us there. The top suggested pick is DJ Moore. I

675
00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:56,560
Speaker 1: would be fine as a number two receiver. Robert Woods

676
00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:59,680
Speaker 1: there I like more better. I guess we're sleeping maybe

677
00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:02,319
Speaker 1: a little bit on Robert Woods. I do every year.

678
00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:04,080
Speaker 1: I never end up with him, and he has a

679
00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:06,239
Speaker 1: good year every year, and I underrate him every year

680
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:09,000
Speaker 1: like many fantasy players. We're just talking about how you know,

681
00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:12,400
Speaker 1: we think Matthew Stafford's really gonna benefit here? Well, what

682
00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:15,359
Speaker 1: just the downfield guy? He also gets some care he's yeah.

683
00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:19,480
Speaker 1: I mean he's consistent too. I know I admittedly miss

684
00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:21,640
Speaker 1: on him every year. I think he could be a

685
00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:23,040
Speaker 1: kind of I don't know if he can call him

686
00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:26,279
Speaker 1: a sleeper because he's always he's always talking about a

687
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:30,200
Speaker 1: fourth round guy here, But it would will be crazy

688
00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:31,560
Speaker 1: to look up at the end of the season see

689
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:34,759
Speaker 1: Robert Woods at eighty catches for twelve yards and nine

690
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:37,920
Speaker 1: touchdowns end the season is the tenth and twelveth best receiver.

691
00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:42,279
Speaker 1: And you know the compumative points. Yeah, I still like

692
00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:45,520
Speaker 1: teach you more better. I like I like DJ more

693
00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:49,279
Speaker 1: the player better. Yeah. Do you trust Sam Donald Moore

694
00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:51,719
Speaker 1: has been volatile? Yeah? In terms of fantas, I mean

695
00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:53,640
Speaker 1: I lived through that last year just drove me. It

696
00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:56,479
Speaker 1: was right, you know, if I had drafted Robert Woods

697
00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:58,480
Speaker 1: in that spot, I've been a lot happier. What's the

698
00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:01,919
Speaker 1: tight end quarterback situation? And Availabi? The top suggested player

699
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:05,120
Speaker 1: for US is d J Moore. The top they hear

700
00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:07,720
Speaker 1: the four guys that they suggest, DJ Moore, Robert Woods,

701
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:13,600
Speaker 1: Mark Andrews, Lamar Jackson. I'd probably vote Lamar. Let me

702
00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:15,680
Speaker 1: take a look here at the running back position. What's

703
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:23,439
Speaker 1: Darrell Henderson sitting there? Wow, you can make a case

704
00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:24,880
Speaker 1: for a lot of those guys. I think I wouldn't

705
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:29,680
Speaker 1: go receiver. I'd even go Andrews over the receivers. I'd

706
00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:34,640
Speaker 1: go Henderson over the receivers. Lamar versus Henderson's. Yeah, I

707
00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:40,280
Speaker 1: think i'd go Lamar. Here the quarterback still available, Lamar Jackson,

708
00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:45,399
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott, Russell Wilson, Justin Herbert. Okay, I would take

709
00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:49,600
Speaker 1: Lamar clearly number one of those. Though, you would take

710
00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:54,360
Speaker 1: Lamar here it goes against everything. Yesterday we didn't do that.

711
00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:59,560
Speaker 1: We ended up Hill and Burrow, Yes, which isn't bad,

712
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:02,320
Speaker 1: which isn't bad. But you're gonna play against Lamar in

713
00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:04,360
Speaker 1: Week one or you know. So, the picks after US

714
00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:08,040
Speaker 1: were we made our pick d J. Moore, Robert Woods,

715
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:12,440
Speaker 1: Adam Feeling, Jamar Chase, Kenny Yalladay, Darrell Henderson. Oh, I

716
00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:14,640
Speaker 1: think it's either Woods or More. No, those are the

717
00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:17,200
Speaker 1: picks that were made. Ray I thought who they were

718
00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:20,680
Speaker 1: recommended for US. So Henderson went more and Woods went Yeah,

719
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:23,759
Speaker 1: Andrews didn't. Andrews did not. I kind of like the

720
00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:27,920
Speaker 1: tight end quarterback hook up. Here the top suggested players

721
00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:33,280
Speaker 1: for US Cooper cup Fine. I like him, Andrews, Tyler Lockett.

722
00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:36,799
Speaker 1: I think Locket's like the most underrated player in fantasy football. TI.

723
00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:39,400
Speaker 1: Here's the thing with Lockett. He'll have these monster games

724
00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:43,959
Speaker 1: and then the next games three catches for twenty yards.

725
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:46,720
Speaker 1: He does. Definitely a lot of volatility there. But when

726
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:48,680
Speaker 1: he's on he when you get hell win, you a weak.

727
00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:51,799
Speaker 1: I think their offense is gonna be better. Um, he's

728
00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:54,520
Speaker 1: my favorite receiver of the group. Andrews isn't my favorite

729
00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:56,560
Speaker 1: tight end, but there's a big tier drop after him.

730
00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:59,360
Speaker 1: Let's see what's left at the tight end. Hockinson is

731
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:03,560
Speaker 1: still there. Okay, do you like Hawkinson better than Andrews. No,

732
00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:08,480
Speaker 1: but it's close. Hockinson. You're not gonna get either. Next pick,

733
00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:11,279
Speaker 1: I think Hawkinson ends up with more catches this year,

734
00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:16,320
Speaker 1: probably more targets, but when Lamar hits Andrews for a touchdown,

735
00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:19,319
Speaker 1: you probably win your game. Either is fine. I would

736
00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:21,879
Speaker 1: probably have them the same, But this is our last

737
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:25,799
Speaker 1: chance to get a Tier two tight end. I would

738
00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:30,440
Speaker 1: suggest we do that. Your choice on those. I mean,

739
00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:32,719
Speaker 1: I think Hawkinson is very much due for a breakout.

740
00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:36,480
Speaker 1: I think he's a very good process. Do Andrews targets

741
00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:39,239
Speaker 1: go down this year because they've got I think so? Yeah.

742
00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:41,480
Speaker 1: I think Sammy Watkins is gonna catch passes, you know

743
00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:43,879
Speaker 1: what I mean. Like, if you told me you could

744
00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:46,200
Speaker 1: have Mark Andrews or Hawkinson for the Steelers, would be

745
00:40:46,239 --> 00:40:48,880
Speaker 1: Hawkinson by a mile. I think he's a better player.

746
00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:57,040
Speaker 1: Lean towards Hawkinson. Yeah, I think he's gonna be a breakout. Yeah. Alright,

747
00:40:57,120 --> 00:41:00,360
Speaker 1: So we're cruising down here through around five in the

748
00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:05,760
Speaker 1: round six and we're up on the board here and

749
00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:08,239
Speaker 1: the top we gotta go receiver here now, we have to.

750
00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:13,560
Speaker 1: We only got We've only got one receiver the top

751
00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:17,480
Speaker 1: back available. Cream Hunt that's for me. So it's the

752
00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:22,200
Speaker 1: top guys suggested or DJ Chark, Robbie Anderson, Jerry Judy.

753
00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:25,759
Speaker 1: The top receivers overall are Juju Smith. Schuster is there

754
00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:30,200
Speaker 1: as well. Brandon Cooks is there as well. Will Fuller

755
00:41:30,280 --> 00:41:33,120
Speaker 1: is there as well, Curtis Samuel. We got we gotta

756
00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:35,319
Speaker 1: take two. We gotta get two guys out of this

757
00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:39,520
Speaker 1: because we're gonna be really picking. I'm I like Judy

758
00:41:39,680 --> 00:41:41,960
Speaker 1: and Brandon Cooks. They are the best. Yeah, I do

759
00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:44,719
Speaker 1: as well. Let's take Judy here, and I hope that

760
00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:46,719
Speaker 1: Cooks makes it to us in the next with our

761
00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:50,279
Speaker 1: next pick, which isn't too far off. Yeah, we're a

762
00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:52,960
Speaker 1: little Judy is really a wider as Gier three and

763
00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:55,360
Speaker 1: we're playing him it too. Yeah, and Cooks made it

764
00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:57,120
Speaker 1: to us. I think you just jump on him. Yeah

765
00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:00,120
Speaker 1: that's easy. Okay. So now we got our starting ND

766
00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:03,480
Speaker 1: up filled out. Wouldn't kill me to hit a Mike

767
00:42:03,520 --> 00:42:07,200
Speaker 1: Williams or something like that soon, you know, Well, let's

768
00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:10,040
Speaker 1: see what we can get. I would really like to

769
00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:12,080
Speaker 1: get another running right back to I think our next

770
00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:13,960
Speaker 1: two picks almost have to be. One of them has

771
00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:17,120
Speaker 1: to be running back. Top running backs available David Johnson,

772
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:21,000
Speaker 1: Zack Moss, Moss, I like James Conner, A J Dillon

773
00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:24,520
Speaker 1: Moss and Dillon are my two favorites, but I would

774
00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:27,640
Speaker 1: take Moss. The top suggested players for us or Curtis Samuel,

775
00:42:27,719 --> 00:42:31,440
Speaker 1: David Johnson, Jarvis Landry, let Tavis Murray, and I remember

776
00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:39,440
Speaker 1: we did. I would rather Moss. I don't like those receivers.

777
00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:43,359
Speaker 1: Mike Williams is there. I bet he will be, though

778
00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:46,440
Speaker 1: the receivers are Curtis, Samuel, Jarvis, Landry, Mike Williams, Michael Gallop.

779
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,799
Speaker 1: M I would live with Williams or Gallop with our

780
00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:53,879
Speaker 1: next pick. Yeah, we're gonna have another pick coming around here,

781
00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:56,400
Speaker 1: per pretty quickly. I think we've got to jump on.

782
00:42:56,719 --> 00:42:58,680
Speaker 1: I think we take Zack Moss and hope he has

783
00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:02,040
Speaker 1: to break out. I hope he's get gets, you know,

784
00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:04,600
Speaker 1: used more. We're back on the clock here. Let's see

785
00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:08,799
Speaker 1: if those receivers got picked over, and they did so

786
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:13,120
Speaker 1: our choices are now at the receiver position. Laviska Chennault interesting,

787
00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:18,160
Speaker 1: Michael Gallup, Jarvis Landry, Davante Parker. Parker is not bad.

788
00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:20,600
Speaker 1: It's just so many miles defeat did and I don't

789
00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:22,600
Speaker 1: know if they're gonna throw the ball a ton. He's

790
00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:25,760
Speaker 1: being drafted too late though to me in fantasy um,

791
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:28,719
Speaker 1: I think Gallop is pretty good too. Marquis Brown is

792
00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:31,680
Speaker 1: still available. That would that's not horrible. We got Lamar

793
00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:39,239
Speaker 1: Corey Davis. Uh. Michael Pittman is interesting. You get the

794
00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:42,080
Speaker 1: number one receiver. He's not a true he's not a

795
00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:44,239
Speaker 1: number one receiver, but he's the number one receiver on

796
00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:47,040
Speaker 1: that team. But he leads the team in all reception categories.

797
00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:49,960
Speaker 1: I kind of like that pick. Yeah, I think he's

798
00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:52,160
Speaker 1: stocks and keep rising too. Yeah, I think I think

799
00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:54,839
Speaker 1: that's what this late a month from now, the all

800
00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:58,919
Speaker 1: these other guys are twos or even threes, he's the one.

801
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:02,359
Speaker 1: He's the one. Yeah, I think I'll target all those guys. Yeah,

802
00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:05,040
Speaker 1: he's to pick. Michael Pittman. I we both liked him

803
00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:06,600
Speaker 1: coming out of the draft. Yeah. Yeah. He didn't do

804
00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:11,080
Speaker 1: anything to change my mind either. Alright, we're cruising here

805
00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:14,000
Speaker 1: down into Round ten. So we got four receivers. Now

806
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,719
Speaker 1: we get three watchers, three running backs. Another back would

807
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:21,880
Speaker 1: another back wouldn't hurt. And the top guys available Jamal Williams,

808
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:30,040
Speaker 1: Philip Lindsay, Alexander Madison, name, hinz J. D. Mckissic, Keevin Coleman,

809
00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:35,880
Speaker 1: now Tarik Cohen, No there's a right back up something else.

810
00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:39,800
Speaker 1: They're better than those dudes. Yeah, Rashad Penny, I'm hating

811
00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:47,920
Speaker 1: all these ye, Sony Michelle, No, Kenneth Gainwell, mac Giovanni.

812
00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:52,520
Speaker 1: Bernard's still there, but he'll be there forever. Yeah, Darrell Williams,

813
00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:55,000
Speaker 1: I don't like any of those backs. Top suggested player

814
00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:59,359
Speaker 1: for US is Corey Davis, Marvin Jones, Jamal Williams. Let's

815
00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:03,040
Speaker 1: take a look at the orderback situation. Matthew Stafford, Joe Burrow, Yeah,

816
00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:08,080
Speaker 1: Ryan Trevor Lawrence, Justin Fields also probably still there. Is

817
00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:11,120
Speaker 1: there a fant or somebody like that, Dallas Goddard still available?

818
00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:14,959
Speaker 1: That's that's too good to be true. But week three

819
00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:17,839
Speaker 1: will be trading one of those tight ends or something. Yeah,

820
00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:21,320
Speaker 1: that's his steel with Goddard in a tenth round. Okay,

821
00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:23,719
Speaker 1: we're back on the clock here at the top suggested

822
00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:26,239
Speaker 1: player for US now is Henry Ruggs. I don't hate that.

823
00:45:26,680 --> 00:45:30,600
Speaker 1: I don't hate that, Jamal Williams, Jalen reagor, Philip Lindsay

824
00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:34,040
Speaker 1: Ruggs is my favorite of those. Yeah. Um, the other

825
00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:37,800
Speaker 1: wide receivers available Rashod Bateman, John Brown. I think Ruggs

826
00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:39,600
Speaker 1: kind of stands out there is that. Yeah, I don't

827
00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:41,799
Speaker 1: think we've ever drafted him, but we haven't. Think he

828
00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:45,160
Speaker 1: takes a step forward. That's a that's a high. You know,

829
00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:46,680
Speaker 1: you gotta start him in a game and he got

830
00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:49,000
Speaker 1: you know, three catches for running thirty yards when you're

831
00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:52,120
Speaker 1: a week Is that that spot starter for bye weeks

832
00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:55,240
Speaker 1: and stuff? If he has a couple of good games,

833
00:45:55,880 --> 00:45:58,759
Speaker 1: I trust group as an offensive mind and cars a

834
00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:01,960
Speaker 1: good deep password. Okay, we're round twelve. The top available

835
00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:04,000
Speaker 1: player for us as a shot, Penny three Co and

836
00:46:04,040 --> 00:46:09,000
Speaker 1: Jalen reagor Matt Ryan. This is where you take Justin Fields. Yeah,

837
00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:11,600
Speaker 1: that's violent MC. I don't want any of those guys

838
00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:14,800
Speaker 1: Justin Fields is to pick. I wonder if this hurts

839
00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:16,480
Speaker 1: us when we do our grading at the end of this,

840
00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:18,440
Speaker 1: we take Justin Fields cause we always reach on him

841
00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:20,040
Speaker 1: by their opinion. But I don't think he's gonna last

842
00:46:20,120 --> 00:46:23,400
Speaker 1: us long. So this would be our last position player

843
00:46:24,160 --> 00:46:28,279
Speaker 1: three Co and James White, Jalen reagor, Gabriel Davis, uh

844
00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:31,440
Speaker 1: the Ravens defense. Do we feel strongly enough about that

845
00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:33,520
Speaker 1: to take them here? I don't like any position players

846
00:46:33,560 --> 00:46:39,120
Speaker 1: you mentioned um Tray Kuan Smith to reach the leap

847
00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:41,640
Speaker 1: of faith, but some of you gotta catch a football down.

848
00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:46,600
Speaker 1: I mean the Thomas injury certainly helps him. Salvon Ackman No, No,

849
00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:51,719
Speaker 1: Jamison Crowder No. I wouldn't surprise me to see his

850
00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:55,400
Speaker 1: Saints make a trade for a receiver Christian Kirk, Marlon

851
00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:59,560
Speaker 1: mack Sterling Shepard. We're really short though, at the running

852
00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:03,120
Speaker 1: backs we are. How about Kenneth game Well, there, he's

853
00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:08,120
Speaker 1: the used to be they hides. Yeah, it's fine with me. Yeah, yeah,

854
00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:10,600
Speaker 1: let's take all right Kenneth Game Well is to pick

855
00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:13,640
Speaker 1: rolling the dice if you're gonna roll the dice on

856
00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:16,920
Speaker 1: something rolling running back, yeah, I mean he's gonna be

857
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:19,160
Speaker 1: involved in the passing game most like the Miles Sanders

858
00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:23,719
Speaker 1: could totally monopolize the position. But well, defense is up here.

859
00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:29,040
Speaker 1: The Washington football team available slam duncan layoffs, yeahs rush

860
00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:32,000
Speaker 1: in fourteenth round. Late in the fourteenth round, there were

861
00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:35,959
Speaker 1: other defenses taken there and then our kicker, uh, well,

862
00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:41,320
Speaker 1: lot's the top available guy. Jason Sanders, Tyler Bass Rodrigo

863
00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:45,680
Speaker 1: blanket ship um looking at bye weeks. Jason Sanders is

864
00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:47,440
Speaker 1: off until week I think they could have trouble in

865
00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:49,919
Speaker 1: the red zone taking Jason Sanders gotta by a week

866
00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:53,359
Speaker 1: a week fourteen. No, yeah, you mentioned that before, thank him. Yeah,

867
00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:56,920
Speaker 1: and the draft is finishing up. Let's see what our

868
00:47:56,920 --> 00:47:59,360
Speaker 1: great is here. We gotta see plus on that one

869
00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:01,440
Speaker 1: of a hundred. That's actually a better grade than what

870
00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:04,640
Speaker 1: we got yesterday. Receivers are pretty soft. Yeah, it's pretty bad.

871
00:48:04,640 --> 00:48:06,239
Speaker 1: We could and then we don't have a lot of

872
00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:09,279
Speaker 1: running back depth of trade. We do have tight end

873
00:48:09,320 --> 00:48:11,719
Speaker 1: depth tight end and quarterback when we invested and maybe

874
00:48:11,719 --> 00:48:13,719
Speaker 1: a little too much. Dan Harris gave us a C

875
00:48:13,880 --> 00:48:16,799
Speaker 1: minus seventy one out of a hundred. Mike Taglieri gave

876
00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:21,160
Speaker 1: us an eighty four uh eight of four hundred. Kaw Yates,

877
00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:23,399
Speaker 1: who usually hates our drafts, gave us a seventy nine

878
00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:25,880
Speaker 1: out of a hundred, and Joe Pisapia gave us a

879
00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:28,440
Speaker 1: seven seventy eight out of a hundred. I think the

880
00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:31,160
Speaker 1: first two rounds went well, and then actually the first

881
00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:33,520
Speaker 1: three I kind of felt pretty good about and then

882
00:48:33,680 --> 00:48:35,880
Speaker 1: a lot of guys we were after it got nailed. Yeah,

883
00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:38,400
Speaker 1: I mean we ended up with Kamara nag Harris, a

884
00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:42,360
Speaker 1: J Brown, Lamar Jackson, Hawkinson, that's not a bad not

885
00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:43,799
Speaker 1: a bad star. And then it kind of we didn't

886
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:46,200
Speaker 1: back it up super great, didn't fall so well, yeah,

887
00:48:46,239 --> 00:48:48,480
Speaker 1: we'll try again tomorrow. But that's going to do it

888
00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:51,200
Speaker 1: for this show and the fantasy football focus. So former
