17
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 1: Kitchen claims that he'd be We went into like we

18
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:11,440
Speaker 1: couldn't score for for innings upon innings. Then he just.

19
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:14,320
Speaker 3: Got but who did score at the very end, lucky?

20
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 1: He just got lucky. But no, it was it was

21
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:18,760
Speaker 1: a good weekend at the expo, you know, got to

22
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: see people we haven't seen in a minute like the footballers.

23
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,120
Speaker 1: It was good to hang out with them, got to

24
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 1: see people that we see there each year. I got

25
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 1: to see Gretch too. Gretch was another one that we

26
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 1: hadn't seen in a minute. But it was a great time,

27
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 1: you know, to to be able to you know, get

28
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:36,039
Speaker 1: together and draft some teams. You were in the King's

29
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,479
Speaker 1: Classic this year in the other division, but we both

30
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 1: drew the one on one and we had kind of

31
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 1: comparable builds, you know, with out of that spot. And

32
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 1: then we did the auction Draft right after, so that

33
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 1: was a lot of fun. So it was a good

34
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 1: weekend all around.

35
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, the auction draft was pretty intense. We had the

36
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 3: number in my room, We had the number ten auctioneer

37
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 3: in the world. Just had a competition you did. Oh,

38
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 3: it was intense. I saw Shane Hallim on Twitter. So

39
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 3: this is the most like intense draft I've ever been

40
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:11,919
Speaker 3: a part of. And I I have the same way

41
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 3: like you're You're It was like three hours and so

42
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 3: you were hanging on every player and you're checking your

43
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 3: sheet and and everything else. There's fourteen teams in there

44
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:26,919
Speaker 3: with deep rosters, three wide receivers, three flex and uh, yeah,

45
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 3: it was interesting. It was funny because our drafts went

46
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 3: fairly similar. For the Snake draft, auction draft was pretty different. Yeah,

47
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 3: as far as and that just goes to show that

48
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,960
Speaker 3: auction drafts are kind of like it's you no auxy

49
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 3: draft is the same because you read the room. Yeah,

50
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:48,400
Speaker 3: you have different strategies. It's uh, every room is is different,

51
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 3: all right, so we do. Yeah, I want to say that.

52
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 3: Hold on JJ said before the show, He's like, I'm

53
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,360
Speaker 3: gonna surprise you with something. I've got to.

54
00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 1: Say something that needs to be said. Okay, So I'm

55
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,840
Speaker 1: one of those people on the internet that does read

56
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:06,240
Speaker 1: the comments, that does look at my mentions, and I

57
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 1: will gladly, you know, take in any criticism or jab

58
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 1: back if you're gonna troll, you know, not in like

59
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 1: a just more of like a fun sarcastic way at

60
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,239
Speaker 1: this point in my life. But I read the comments

61
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,360
Speaker 1: because there's a lot of good feedback from the comments,

62
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:27,920
Speaker 1: Like genuinely there's there's good feedback that are received via comments.

63
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 1: People think that it's all trolling as bad for your

64
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,240
Speaker 1: mental health. I disagree. I think that there's there's it's

65
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 1: people that are voicing their opinion about how a show

66
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 1: goes and they say, hey, I didn't like this part,

67
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 1: and it's like, Okay, I might still do that thing,

68
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 1: but I know that you don't like it, and maybe

69
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 1: other people feel the same way. There was one piece

70
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 1: of feedback from last week's show episode. I don't know

71
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 1: if you knew know about this kitchen, but I'd like

72
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 1: to address it, and I've I've actually written a statement

73
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 1: that I'm going to read, oh boy or this particular situation. Okay, first,

74
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 1: I'm gonna up my phone on Focus because for some

75
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 1: reason it wasn't a right a statement regarding last week's

76
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 1: news item about Sam Laporta. On last week's Late Round

77
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 1: Fantasy Football show, my co host and COO David Kitchen

78
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:18,720
Speaker 1: read a news item about Sam Laporta recovering from a microdissectomy.

79
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:22,480
Speaker 1: Immediately after, rather than responding with a take to that

80
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 1: news item, I immediately started talking about the Falcons quarterback job.

81
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:28,840
Speaker 1: I'd like to go on record and say that I

82
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:33,160
Speaker 1: was wrong and I apologize. Rather than responding individually to

83
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,599
Speaker 1: the countless comments, social media mentions and emails, I just

84
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 1: like to go on record and say that I had

85
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 1: a thirty second period where I was completely lost and

86
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:45,359
Speaker 1: there were three main reasons as to why I was lost. First,

87
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,279
Speaker 1: as many of you know, I was sick last week.

88
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,160
Speaker 1: My brain wasn't functioning the way it typically does, and

89
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:52,200
Speaker 1: that led to me not fully paying attention to what

90
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,840
Speaker 1: was going on. Second, my co host was attempting to

91
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:58,200
Speaker 1: pronounce the word microdissectomy before handing it off to me,

92
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 1: and that really threw me off. I'll be speaking to

93
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:05,520
Speaker 1: David Kitchen separately on that matter so it doesn't happen again. Third,

94
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,320
Speaker 1: bringing it all together, that same co host skip the

95
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 1: laporta item in our show sheet and then went back

96
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:13,279
Speaker 1: to it, which threw me off completely. As you know,

97
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:17,600
Speaker 1: I was sick last week, So really, instead of emailing

98
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,720
Speaker 1: me and sending me messages on social media about my incompetence,

99
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,919
Speaker 1: please direct all of that hate to David Kitchen. This

100
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 1: is actually all of his fault. You can reach them

101
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 1: via email at David at Lateround dot com or on

102
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 1: Twitter at David Underscore Kitchen. I appreciate everyone's time.

103
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:39,480
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that was a surprise that I apologize as

104
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 3: well for my part, and that we didn't talk about

105
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 3: this because I'm like, maybe no one will know this.

106
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: I was so guys. Last week I was feeling like

107
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 1: absolute garbage, and then when that was going on, I

108
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,040
Speaker 1: was actively thinking, I think I just started talking about

109
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 1: something completely different because I was just going off with

110
00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 1: the show sheet.

111
00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:00,360
Speaker 3: So the first thing I did after the episode usually

112
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,839
Speaker 3: I like create the you know, our podcast titles and

113
00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 3: stuff like that. The first thing I did was I

114
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 3: was like, I must have zoned out because I did not,

115
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:10,600
Speaker 3: and no one else said it in the chat at

116
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 3: the time, and so I had to go back and

117
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,039
Speaker 3: look at it, and I was like, Okay.

118
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:16,919
Speaker 1: That's the thing. The chat wasn't very on top of

119
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 1: it either in that In that case, the problem was

120
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,559
Speaker 1: I heard about an injury, and then we talked about

121
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,640
Speaker 1: players who were injured. So I kind of make because

122
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:25,160
Speaker 1: because I was just kind of going off of the

123
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:26,479
Speaker 1: line items in the show sheet.

124
00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,479
Speaker 3: For our news items, I do skip around sometimes as

125
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 3: far as like when it's like a position or if

126
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,920
Speaker 3: there's someone that we mentioned, I just go to that player.

127
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 3: I do skip around. I apologize and in the future

128
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:39,920
Speaker 3: I will say, JJ, I don't know what you're talking about,

129
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:40,840
Speaker 3: Like I thought it was me.

130
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:42,159
Speaker 1: That's fine.

131
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 3: I thought it was asked me.

132
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:47,560
Speaker 1: A lot of trouble brother brother. I got not only comments,

133
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:51,040
Speaker 1: not only people on Twitter. I had two or three

134
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,720
Speaker 1: emails from people that were asking what I was doing

135
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,919
Speaker 1: in that moment. And to tell you the truth, I

136
00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:01,159
Speaker 1: don't know, because I wasn't well and there was just

137
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 1: a lot going on in that particular moment. So I

138
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 1: apologize and hopefully we can move on and I'll be friendsy. Yeah.

139
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 3: I was stuck in a car with JJ where he

140
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 3: was coughing up along last week and also he had

141
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:17,440
Speaker 3: sick kids there at the house, and I thought I

142
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 3: was out of it, and then JJ was like, well no,

143
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 3: it took me six or seven days to be fair.

144
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 1: I was on the tail end at that point.

145
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 3: So I I think I woke up this morning though,

146
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 3: like I think I'm good now.

147
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 1: First was there was there was a day of sore throat.

148
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 1: That was the first thing.

149
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think I've had and.

150
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:36,680
Speaker 1: I'm finally I'm finally like back to This is the

151
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 1: first day I feel like that I'm like fully fully

152
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 1: back to normal. But I don't think I was contagious

153
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 1: back then.

154
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 3: We have eight days until football starts Hall of Fame game.

155

193
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 1: on to the news.

194
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 3: Today's fantasy news. All right, Uh, today's news started with

195
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:06,200
Speaker 3: a tua. Yeah, listen, this Atlanta quarterback situation is already

196
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,320
Speaker 3: a miss. He had a flare up. They signed Cooper Rush.

197
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 3: We don't know what's happening. What's your take on this?

198
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 3: To a thing? Just when we thought he was like

199
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 3: QB one.

200
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:19,199
Speaker 1: So look, I don't mind Sam Laporta this year. I'm

201
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 1: just stop just kidding. Uh No, I mean, like it's

202
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 1: my stance from last week in this this quarterback room,

203
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:29,199
Speaker 1: like I'm not like super super bowlish on you know,

204
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,319
Speaker 1: any of these guys. It does like I saw that

205
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 1: that Michael Pennix was clear for seven on seven. He

206
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 1: threw a nice pass to Zachariah Branch in seven on seven.

207
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:43,960
Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean, like overall, I think I'd rather

208
00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:49,400
Speaker 1: have Tua under center for Bijon and maybe feeding Drake London.

209
00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 1: And I feel but like he's just been really not

210
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 1: great and we don't have Mike McDaniel leading that offense

211
00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:00,360
Speaker 1: at this point. So yeah, I mean it at least

212
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 1: opens the door a little bit for Michael Pennix this

213
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:05,199
Speaker 1: back thing. But we'll see, we'll see what ends up happening.

214
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,199
Speaker 1: Hopefully it's just a minor, minor issue.

215
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 3: Okay, This next one, this one was an interesting one.

216
00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 3: JJ sach scharbon sharp as we call them, ready for

217
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:26,480
Speaker 3: week one, that is, that is and fathomable. I don't

218
00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,520
Speaker 3: know if that's true. I think that might be more speculation.

219
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:33,640
Speaker 3: And you were in the the twitter streets, uh do

220
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:34,240
Speaker 3: get it out?

221
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:37,079
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I there was a tweet from Sleeper.

222
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:39,959
Speaker 1: I quot tweeted it because it was a I think

223
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,679
Speaker 1: Breer was it? Breer who who was reporting on it,

224
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:46,199
Speaker 1: like basically saying that like sharbon At might be ready

225
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 1: for week one or like that they're not. You know,

226
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:50,520
Speaker 1: they don't know for sure, and I just haven't led

227
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 1: it out, ye right, And I said, I said, I'm sorry,

228
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 1: that was my my quote tweet to that, because clearly

229
00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,319
Speaker 1: anyone in the fantasy space right now, we're assuming that

230
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 1: it's more of like a November thing. Some people don't

231
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 1: even think he's gonna play at all this year. And

232
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:08,439
Speaker 1: you know, if you look at this from a timeline perspective,

233
00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:11,959
Speaker 1: he got hurt in January. He then got surgery because

234
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 1: there was swelling and such. A month later. February twentieth

235
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,480
Speaker 1: was the surgery date, which means by the time the

236
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 1: season starts, it's like six and a half months post

237
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 1: op for that acl which typically you know, for running

238
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 1: backs and such a future. I mean, look, if you

239
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:30,200
Speaker 1: want to think that he's Superman or you know, can

240
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 1: be ahead of what we typically see, that's one thing.

241
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 1: But this is like multiple months, if not at least

242
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 1: a month ahead of like the earliest we've ever seen

243
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 1: a guy come back from an ACL, And yeah, you know,

244
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 1: medicine and peptides and all. You know, I've seen a

245
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:47,040
Speaker 1: lot of people talk about like peptides and that's gonna

246
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,600
Speaker 1: help a lot of these players recover from injury. Well

247
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 1: some of them are banned first off, from being used

248
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:55,960
Speaker 1: by NFL players, So keep that in mind. But also,

249
00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:58,559
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know enough about medicine to

250
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,640
Speaker 1: say like, yeah, these guys are gonna cut two months

251
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 1: off of their recovery time from an ACL because of peptides.

252
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 1: You know, I just don't think that it's a reasonable

253
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 1: thing to me to sit on a podcast is gonna

254
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,079
Speaker 1: be listening to a lot of people and say that, right,

255
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:14,240
Speaker 1: So my stance still is that that's a very very

256
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:18,640
Speaker 1: bolish and optimistic way to view Sharbonay. My guess is

257
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 1: still like maybe October at the earliest, just based on

258
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 1: what we've seen traditionally, But I think November is a

259
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 1: more reasonable timeline. And if you're talking about like getting

260
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 1: back to full strength, that's that's sort of like that

261
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 1: mid November timeframe and area. Now, how does that impact

262
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 1: the rest of that backfield. I do think that if

263
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 1: you think about it from like Jenerian Price's standpoint, he's

264
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 1: got to really do something and grab hold of that

265
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:44,559
Speaker 1: backfield to start the season because Sharboney could be hurting

266
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:46,959
Speaker 1: him when it matters most in the fantasy playoffs, you know,

267
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 1: so to keep that in mind, I still think that,

268
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 1: like the stuff that we're seeing with George Hallani is

269
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 1: not just BS. I think there's probably something to I mean,

270
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 1: he got run in the plays a little bit like

271
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,240
Speaker 1: I think he's at least like a la Quinn Allen

272
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 1: type player for them, And then there's the upside of

273
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,160
Speaker 1: maybe he gets more early down work than we think.

274
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 1: And we can sit here and say that doesn't make

275
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:11,920
Speaker 1: any sense, but I think a lot of people thought

276
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:13,679
Speaker 1: it didn't make any sense from this with the backfield

277
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 1: last year, the way that they did with Kenneth Walker,

278
00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 1: and when you get confirmation that they did it the

279
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,960
Speaker 1: right way because they won the Super Bowl largely or

280
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,720
Speaker 1: at least partially because of Kenneth Walker, who won Super

281
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,920
Speaker 1: Bowl MVP because he probably had fresher legs, I don't

282
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 1: think that they just forgot it, like forgot about that,

283
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 1: you know. So there might be more of a split

284
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 1: than people assume. I think price is fine as like

285
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 1: a sixth round pick. I'm a little bit worried if

286
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 1: he goes in like the Travion jud Kin, you know,

287
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 1: those like year two guys, those running backs in that range.

288
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,160
Speaker 1: I think that he should be below them. But yeah,

289
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 1: like that, that's my general feel of this backfield. I

290
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 1: I would be shocked if Zach Sharbiney has a role

291
00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 1: in Week one. I'd be pretty shocked.

292
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 3: I did tell you that you need to go on

293
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 3: VPC one five to seven and let me know how

294
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:05,040
Speaker 3: it out feels.

295
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 1: That's not I'm not a peptide bro. I can't. I can't.

296
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,520
Speaker 1: I get too nervous about putting anything in my body.

297
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the one.

298
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 1: I got nervous enough when I started taking creatine last year.

299
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:14,360
Speaker 1: You know, I'm not.

300
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 3: They call it the Wolverine stack. But yeah, if everyone

301
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:21,080
Speaker 3: else is doing it, I'm I'm going to be doing it.

302
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:26,880
Speaker 3: I talked to a guy actually that he his business

303
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 3: helps NFL players a lot of a lot of different

304
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 3: athletes get back to like their former selves, helps with

305
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:38,560
Speaker 3: injuries like a sports chiropractice, And he said that BPC

306
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:40,600
Speaker 3: one five, so big, were we go?

307
00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:41,120
Speaker 1: Here we go?

308
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 3: Now?

309
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 1: Now Kitchen's just making more comments happen in the Spotify

310
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 1: second comments. It's gonna be great.

311
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 3: Listen, there might be some sponsors out there.

312
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 1: You know, we're not getting spot I don't want to

313
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,840
Speaker 1: Peptide brand sponsoring us. All right, let's move on to

314
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:55,320
Speaker 1: the next one.

315
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 3: Cards running back room is a mess. Kind of like

316
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 3: this show so far, I don't know what to take

317
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:06,360
Speaker 3: from all. You know, the coach speak. Then you've got

318
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,960
Speaker 3: keeping all four running backs, you got Trey Benson trying

319
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,440
Speaker 3: to play special teams. I mean, what are we making

320
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 3: of this running back?

321
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 1: Well, in these situations, like when Nathaniel Hackett comes out

322
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 1: and you start talking about like James Connor being the

323
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:23,200
Speaker 1: RB one or something, or just like praising him, I

324
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:28,200
Speaker 1: hope that in these situations the market reacts to that

325
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,920
Speaker 1: type of type of coach speak. Right in the end,

326
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:34,880
Speaker 1: we know that Jeremiah Love is the best running back

327
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 1: in this backfield, right. I think that Tyler Aljier is

328
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:45,119
Speaker 1: a really good grinder. More of that, like early down profile,

329
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 1: he was a pretty decent enough pass catcher. I mean,

330
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 1: he had a really interesting prospect profile because he converted

331
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 1: to running back whenever he was in college, Like it

332
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,320
Speaker 1: wasn't wasn't this like thing that he just did from

333
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:57,160
Speaker 1: the start, like he was playing on defense and stuff,

334
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:01,600
Speaker 1: and so uh, good for him for doing what he did,

335
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 1: you know, in the NFL thus far. But with that

336
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,680
Speaker 1: being said, Jeremiah Love and I talked about this on

337
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:10,800
Speaker 1: the Schedule Analysis Show. The Cardinals have a really really

338
00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:14,800
Speaker 1: tough schedule this year, like like obscenely tough, and it

339
00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:18,320
Speaker 1: starts out really hard, and so I'm very interested to

340
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,359
Speaker 1: see how that backfield is split when we know that

341
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:23,600
Speaker 1: or we don't know for sure, but we we believe

342
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 1: that Jeremiah Love is more of that traditional pass catching

343
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:30,960
Speaker 1: you know, we'll play and hurry up or play on

344
00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:34,440
Speaker 1: third downs long down and distance two minute. And if

345
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:35,680
Speaker 1: that's the case, he might be on the field a

346
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:37,119
Speaker 1: little bit more because the Cardinals aren' going to be

347
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:41,000
Speaker 1: very good, right, Like that's the anti Tyler Algier stance.

348
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:45,159
Speaker 1: In my opinion, I think Love in round three is

349
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:49,960
Speaker 1: a very good bet because you know, everyone will comp

350
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,600
Speaker 1: the Ashton Genty thing, right and they'll say, oh, look

351
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,760
Speaker 1: at Ashton Gent burned us last year. Well, Ashton Gent's

352
00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:59,320
Speaker 1: production in round three last year is actually totally fine,

353
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:02,000
Speaker 1: totally And then there's obviously the upside of like what if,

354
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:04,920
Speaker 1: what if Jeremiah Love is just in a better situation

355
00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:07,840
Speaker 1: than we expect, or what if Arizona's offense a little

356
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,680
Speaker 1: bit better, whatever the case may be. And so, like,

357
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:13,119
Speaker 1: I don't really want to make the apples to the

358
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:15,399
Speaker 1: I think that the comparison to Genty is more of

359
00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:17,560
Speaker 1: an apples the oranges comparison because Genty was a first

360
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:19,320
Speaker 1: round pick and re draft last year, you know, going

361
00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 1: in like the the end of the first or whatever,

362
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:24,720
Speaker 1: And so with Jeremiah Love, you're getting him at a

363
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:27,920
Speaker 1: discount from that, and I think that where he's going

364
00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 1: is more than reasonable. As a result, now there's going

365
00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:33,480
Speaker 1: to be some platforms like ESPN is really high on

366
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:36,000
Speaker 1: Jeremiah Love. I think they have him at like RB

367
00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 1: five or something like something crazy. That's where he becomes

368
00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:43,520
Speaker 1: a fade. Like I'm not taking him in that first

369
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:45,720
Speaker 1: like at least round and a half, but late round two,

370
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:48,639
Speaker 1: when things start to fall off at the running back position,

371
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:50,720
Speaker 1: you know, after like Derek Henry falls off the board,

372
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,520
Speaker 1: that's where I think you can start looking at at

373
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:55,159
Speaker 1: Love a little bit more. And in best Ball, we've

374
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:56,760
Speaker 1: been getting him in round three. You know, he's a

375
00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 1: he's a early to mid round three pick. And so

376
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 1: so if this news is shifting that in any way,

377
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:04,960
Speaker 1: shape or form, I mean, you have James Connor and older.

378
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:07,280
Speaker 1: I mean, look, I love James Connor. Not only is

379
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:09,520
Speaker 1: he for all intents and purpose, like for what you hear,

380
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:13,600
Speaker 1: just an awesome dude who you know, beat cancer. He's

381
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:16,360
Speaker 1: a pit guy, right, I mean, like hailed a pit right.

382
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:18,720
Speaker 1: Like I love James Connor, but he's on the wrong

383
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 1: side of his career. From an age perspective, I already

384
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:24,200
Speaker 1: talked about Tyler Algier. I was never a big Trey

385
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 1: Benson guy, aside from like last year when he was

386
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:28,960
Speaker 1: really really cheap to acquire and I thought it was

387
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:30,560
Speaker 1: fine to just throw that dart and see if he

388
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,960
Speaker 1: could maybe do something when he returned from injury. It

389
00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 1: just never happened. So I'm just looking at this backfield

390
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:39,160
Speaker 1: and saying, like, I don't think that there's like such

391
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:43,760
Speaker 1: intense threats for Jeremiah Love. In the end, Tyler Algier

392
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:46,880
Speaker 1: is a solid back who can definitely do some stuff

393
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 1: on the early downs and maybe at the goal line.

394
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 1: That's definitely a fear. But I don't think that you're

395
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:55,440
Speaker 1: drafting a Cardinals running back for goal line touches. You know,

396
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:57,680
Speaker 1: we just know that this this situation is gonna be

397
00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 1: more pass heavy and not necessarily the highest scoring in

398
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:03,639
Speaker 1: the world. So I think love if he does tumble

399
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:05,680
Speaker 1: a little bit in ADP just makes him a little

400
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:06,280
Speaker 1: bit more attractive.

401
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:11,600
Speaker 3: Okay, this was a blurb by our good friend Rodopet

402
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:15,960
Speaker 3: that we saw over the weekend. Marshall Lloyd spent multiple

403
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:21,119
Speaker 3: months of the offseason visiting a specialized injury rehab institute

404
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:25,560
Speaker 3: so ye two to three months basically, and what they

405
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 3: found was that he was kind of overcompensating for a

406
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:32,200
Speaker 3: previous ACL injury that he had. But also keep in

407
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:36,399
Speaker 3: mind that Josh Jacobs the investigation is still open, and

408
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:41,240
Speaker 3: also Chris Brooks is on the non football injury list yesterday.

409
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:44,160
Speaker 1: Yeah. You know, it's funny because the same exact team,

410
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 1: Christian Watson, was doing something similar with his hamstrings last

411
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,920
Speaker 1: year or two years ago, or at least the last

412
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:52,280
Speaker 1: couple of years. And right now when we talk about

413
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:54,919
Speaker 1: Christian Watson, no one really brings up the injury stuff

414
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:55,720
Speaker 1: he was.

415
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,159
Speaker 3: Not this time last year, he was not being drafted.

416
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,919
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I mean I didn't draft Christian Watson at

417
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,040
Speaker 1: all in Best Ball last year, right Like, I wasn't

418
00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:05,280
Speaker 1: going after him at all. And I can feel fine

419
00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:06,600
Speaker 1: with that in hindsight because I had a good Best

420
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,680
Speaker 1: Ball season, But yeah, it was not a good call

421
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:13,480
Speaker 1: to not be in on Christian Watson. And you know,

422
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 1: he got it right and hopefully Marshawn Lloyd does too.

423
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,239
Speaker 1: I think as a prospect, I didn't you know, if

424
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,600
Speaker 1: you guys go back and read the prospect guide from him.

425
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 1: When Marshawn Lloyd came out, I wasn't like super high

426
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 1: on him. He has a good athletic profile, but he

427
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:31,159
Speaker 1: profiled to me more as a complimentary back than like

428
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:33,439
Speaker 1: a full blown bell cow. But I think that's kind

429
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:36,320
Speaker 1: of what Green Bay needs at this point. Josh Jacobs is,

430
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,320
Speaker 1: you know, on the similar to like James Connon, not

431
00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:42,120
Speaker 1: quite like James Connor because he's younger and he came

432
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,639
Speaker 1: in younger too, Jacobs did, but he's not the you

433
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,200
Speaker 1: know he could be. We could be seeing a little

434
00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:48,920
Speaker 1: bit of wear and tear with Jacobs, and obviously you

435
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,440
Speaker 1: have the off the field stuff too. I wouldn't be

436
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 1: shocked that they try to, Like, I think that they've

437
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:57,320
Speaker 1: wanted to have a compliment in this backfield for a minute.

438
00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 1: It's just that Lloyd hasn't been able to stay healthy

439
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,680
Speaker 1: since they drafted him, and so I'm not gonna be

440
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,320
Speaker 1: surprised if he carves out at least some role. You know,

441
00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:07,080
Speaker 1: if you want to throw a last round dart in

442
00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:09,840
Speaker 1: the season long league, and if you're drafting early just

443
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,040
Speaker 1: to see what happens with the Josh Jacobs stuff, I

444
00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,080
Speaker 1: think it's totally reasonable. If you're playing best ball you

445
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:17,240
Speaker 1: want to draft him in round seventeen to eighteen, you know,

446
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:21,879
Speaker 1: in overrun draftings. Totally reasonable. So yeah, I mean, like,

447
00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,400
Speaker 1: I think that this is all good news from Marshon Loyd.

448
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:25,960
Speaker 1: And you know, just as a fan of the game,

449
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 1: you want to see these guys be able to find

450
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:29,639
Speaker 1: the field and see what they're all about, as opposed

451
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,119
Speaker 1: to just like one injury after another and you're not

452
00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:33,959
Speaker 1: really finding out how good they actually are.

453
00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:36,800
Speaker 3: Okay, you see on this list, I have moved some

454
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:39,440
Speaker 3: things around, and I've shifted them, and I have I'm

455
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:42,159
Speaker 3: telling you in advance that I am shifting them around.

456
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 3: Let's move on to receiver, and let's talk about the

457
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:49,400
Speaker 3: injury portion for receivers. Let's group these two together. Lake

458
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:54,960
Speaker 3: Neighbors avoids the pup. We don't know about what he's

459
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,639
Speaker 3: going to do as far as to start the season,

460
00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:02,159
Speaker 3: but Alec Pierce to miss one to two more weeks.

461
00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:05,000
Speaker 3: This is a guy that signed a big contract. These

462
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:09,640
Speaker 3: are guys that neighbors starting to climb and peers starting

463
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:10,959
Speaker 3: to fall in drafts.

464
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:16,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, So with Neighbors, I think that it's important to

465
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:18,720
Speaker 1: understand that this does not mean that he is going

466
00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:21,920
Speaker 1: to play week one. It means that they probably have

467
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,920
Speaker 1: some thought that he might be able to play within

468
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 1: the first handful of weeks. Like that, that's a that's

469
00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:31,040
Speaker 1: a possibility, but it's obviously good news, better news than

470
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 1: not for sure. With Neighbors, you know, it sounded like

471
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:37,200
Speaker 1: he had some setbacks with his recovery. There was the

472
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:39,919
Speaker 1: famous videos that came out, you know, whether they were

473
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:41,960
Speaker 1: playing like what were they playing softball in the one

474
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:45,159
Speaker 1: or kickball in the one or something like that, and

475
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,520
Speaker 1: he didn't look right. He still had sort of a limp.

476
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:51,720
Speaker 1: It's good that he avoided pop. I'm trying to Now,

477
00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:54,359
Speaker 1: I mean I was I was hoping that, not hoping,

478
00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:57,400
Speaker 1: but I was playing the game, the game theory game,

479
00:23:58,200 --> 00:23:59,920
Speaker 1: you know, with Neighbors and Best Ball, and I was

480
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,920
Speaker 1: not really drafting him because I was thinking that his

481
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:04,880
Speaker 1: ADP was gonna fall if he was placed on pupp

482
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:06,440
Speaker 1: and then he wasn't. So it was a bad call

483
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:08,840
Speaker 1: by me. He's rising in my rankings a little bit

484
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:11,440
Speaker 1: as a result of that. I think at this point,

485
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 1: if you're in a season long league, you know, if

486
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:18,959
Speaker 1: he falls to like I don't know, it's hard, it's

487
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:20,600
Speaker 1: hard to really know. But like, if you're in a

488
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:23,960
Speaker 1: the shallower the season long league that you're in, the

489
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:25,960
Speaker 1: managed league that you're in, the easier it's going to

490
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 1: be to take on a player like Neighbors because the

491
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 1: cost to acquire is not going to be as significant.

492
00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 1: And what I mean by that is, you know, if

493
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 1: you end up getting if you're in a ten team

494
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:35,960
Speaker 1: league and you get Neighbors in round four or five

495
00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 1: or four, let's say, and in round four it's the

496
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:40,879
Speaker 1: top of that really good wide receiver tier that I like,

497
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 1: whether it's Jaylen Wattle, Terry McLaurin, Luther Burden, you know,

498
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:47,359
Speaker 1: Tedoroe McMillan. There's just a lot of good why Garrett Wilson,

499
00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:48,920
Speaker 1: there's a lot of good wide receivers in that tier.

500
00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 1: Lat McConkey. I think that it's okay in a shallower league,

501
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:56,240
Speaker 1: especially if you have an ir spot to take on

502
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:59,639
Speaker 1: Malik Neighbors, because you're gonna be able to get another

503
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:01,879
Speaker 1: guy in round five and possibly round six from that

504
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 1: tier depending on how things go down. And I know

505
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:05,800
Speaker 1: that it sounds crazy to hear that if you've been

506
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 1: grinding Best Ball drafts. It's just different in season long

507
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,760
Speaker 1: if you go look at ADP, So I think it's

508
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 1: going to be easier to do that if you're drafting

509
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:18,960
Speaker 1: right now. I'm anticipating his ADP to probably be more

510
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:22,040
Speaker 1: in that like round three range for you know, if

511
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:24,440
Speaker 1: I were to give like a median outcome for like

512
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:26,480
Speaker 1: the rest of the summer up until the start of

513
00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:29,479
Speaker 1: the season. And I don't think he's gonna play Week one,

514
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:31,159
Speaker 1: but I do think that there's a possibility now that

515
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:34,119
Speaker 1: we could see him like week three week four timeframe.

516
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 1: And obviously Melik Neighbors is a top twelve wide receiver

517
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:40,040
Speaker 1: when he's healthy, you know, like, so right now, I

518
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 1: think Neighbors could be drafted around, Like, let's just say

519
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:47,440
Speaker 1: mid round three is a reasonable spot to get Neighbors,

520
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:49,720
Speaker 1: you know, if you're in a deeper league like we

521
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:51,600
Speaker 1: were in the King's Classic this past week, I didn't

522
00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:53,320
Speaker 1: just I just didn't want to risk it. I didn't

523
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:56,160
Speaker 1: want to take on Malik Neighbors in a fourteen team

524
00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:58,440
Speaker 1: league where you start one quarterback, two running backs, three

525
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:00,879
Speaker 1: wide receivers, three flex spots to the tight end. You know,

526
00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:04,119
Speaker 1: it's just if you miss on that pick, it can

527
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:07,280
Speaker 1: really really hurt you. It's not fun to lose out

528
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:12,160
Speaker 1: on like a third round pick in a deep league

529
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:14,399
Speaker 1: like that. So that's where I'm at with Neighbors right now.

530
00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:19,320
Speaker 3: All right, Tank Dell is back sort of, Hey, I

531
00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:23,520
Speaker 3: should talk about Alix Pierce. I thought you already did. Wow,

532
00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,679
Speaker 3: I group those two together. We're running kind of late,

533
00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:27,439
Speaker 3: so I'm trying to.

534
00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 1: Like, we're fine, We're fine. People need my Alec Pierce.

535
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 1: Teak continues to be I am shocked that the market

536
00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:37,040
Speaker 1: is not higher on him when I thought I was

537
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:40,040
Speaker 1: going to be lower on Alec Pierce. He is at

538
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 1: a completely reasonable price on most platforms.

539
00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:44,919
Speaker 3: Right now, he's still falling and.

540
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:46,520
Speaker 1: He's still following, and I think this is gonna be

541
00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:48,119
Speaker 1: a one to two week thing, like they're saying.

542
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 3: Uh.

543
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:52,200
Speaker 1: And so if that's the case, like if if Alec

544
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,320
Speaker 1: Pierce is not ready by the start of the season,

545
00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:56,919
Speaker 1: that is a huge fumble by the Colts to give

546
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 1: him the contract that they gave him with him not

547
00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:01,200
Speaker 1: being ready. And if you want to if you're playing

548
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:04,119
Speaker 1: in multiple leagues and you want to kind of hedge

549
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:05,680
Speaker 1: this a little bit, you can draft Josh Downs. You

550
00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:07,639
Speaker 1: can draft Tyler Warren. I think both Tyler Warren and

551
00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:10,680
Speaker 1: Josh Downs are pretty good values right now. So if

552
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:12,359
Speaker 1: you want to want to hedge this a little bit,

553
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 1: you can go in the other direction and not just

554
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:17,160
Speaker 1: you know, go in all in with with Alec Pierce.

555
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:19,760
Speaker 1: But I like, if you're getting Alec Peerce is like

556
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 1: your wide receiver four or something in any format, I mean,

557
00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:27,840
Speaker 1: it's it's not that bad considering, like we know his

558
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 1: big playability. He's gotten better every year I give him that.

559
00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:33,640
Speaker 1: He just hasn't been a high volume getter dating back

560
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:37,080
Speaker 1: to even college. But in this scenario where it's not

561
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:39,159
Speaker 1: like you're paying a fourth or he's not in that

562
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:41,760
Speaker 1: great tier of wide receivers, you know, he's well after that,

563
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:44,479
Speaker 1: and so because of that, I think he's actually kind

564
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,159
Speaker 1: of an attractive piece right now. I'm trying not to

565
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:52,160
Speaker 1: be too reactive to some of the injury news, whether

566
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:53,960
Speaker 1: it comes at the end of camp or you know,

567
00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:56,600
Speaker 1: it's happening at the beginning of camp here, just because

568
00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:59,240
Speaker 1: things can change in an instant and we have to

569
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:02,159
Speaker 1: go by what they're generally saying and also their actions,

570
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:03,800
Speaker 1: which was they gave him a really big contract.

571
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:10,320
Speaker 3: Okay, Tank Dell is back sort of on the sideline

572
00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:13,360
Speaker 3: at least, but he is running routes. I don't think

573
00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:15,720
Speaker 3: they have him like in full contact stuff just yet,

574
00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:21,040
Speaker 3: but they did not put him on the pup. And meanwhile,

575
00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 3: Jalen Nole out at least a few weeks because of

576
00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:30,360
Speaker 3: a finger injury. Not not great news for him. What's

577
00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 3: your take on the wide receivers.

578
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:34,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's I mean, it seems minor enough for Jalen Nole,

579
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:37,119
Speaker 1: so I'm not overly concerned. I mean, I think the

580
00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:39,280
Speaker 1: bigger concern with Knowl is just that if Tank Dell

581
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:42,720
Speaker 1: is back in healthy, it's gonna limit the time for

582
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 1: Jayden Higgins even in that offense. As long as tank

583
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 1: Dell is healthy, it's good. Like I mean I said

584
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:52,240
Speaker 1: this last week. I think it was with with CJ. Stroud, Like,

585
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 1: don't overstate the splits with and without Tank Dell for CJ. Stroud,

586
00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,920
Speaker 1: because Stroud was just not nearly as effective in general

587
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:03,800
Speaker 1: after that first year uh in in the in the league.

588
00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:05,960
Speaker 1: So it's not really a tank Dell problem. It's just

589
00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:10,200
Speaker 1: that that Stroud hasn't been as good as a fantasy asset,

590
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:12,720
Speaker 1: especially even as a pastor. Although I do think, and

591
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:15,400
Speaker 1: I this is something that someone had commented on last week.

592
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,120
Speaker 1: I was speaking more about him as a fantasy asset

593
00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:20,800
Speaker 1: last week. I do think there are some underlying metrics

594
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:24,240
Speaker 1: where like Stroud isn't as bad as what people probably think.

595
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 1: Like I think Stroud could go through a and and

596
00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:30,960
Speaker 1: end up having like a Jared Goff type career, you know,

597
00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:33,960
Speaker 1: where super solid. Give him, get him in the right system,

598
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:35,920
Speaker 1: give him the right weapons, and all of a sudden,

599
00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:38,640
Speaker 1: like he's not only low ENQB one, high end QB

600
00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 1: two fantasy viable, but he's also someone that can be.

601
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:43,680
Speaker 3: A good deliverer, deliverer of the football.

602
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 1: But look, this is a situation for the Texans where

603
00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:48,800
Speaker 1: bottom line for them, Man, it's gonna come down to

604
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:51,800
Speaker 1: how how that offensive line looks after last year, after

605
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 1: the last couple of years, and there should be some

606
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:57,280
Speaker 1: improvements there that we're excited about. But that that's what

607
00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 1: this is gonna come down to most in terms of

608
00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 1: how effective the offense is going to be. We'll see

609
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:02,560
Speaker 1: what happens with Tank del If you want to throw

610
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:05,720
Speaker 1: a last round, Dart, be my guest. I think Jalen

611
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:08,040
Speaker 1: Nole was a good prospect, the fun prospect who could

612
00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:10,080
Speaker 1: play the slot. But to me, Nol is someone that

613
00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:12,400
Speaker 1: you're gonna probably want to go after, more so in

614
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:18,479
Speaker 1: a best ball environment than a than a managed season long. Okay, uh,

615
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:20,080
Speaker 1: Chris brasel.

616
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:24,840
Speaker 3: It had some knee issues. He was limping, he was

617
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 3: carted off, and then I just saw in the News

618
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:33,160
Speaker 3: and Rumors channel in our late round discord that head

619
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:36,000
Speaker 3: coach Dave Caanala says that he aggravated the same left

620
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:38,560
Speaker 3: knee that he missed that he missed a couple recent

621
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:42,480
Speaker 3: practices for due to soreness. Not great though for the rookie.

622
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:45,600
Speaker 1: Not great. I mean, look, I think Chris Brasel is

623
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:49,480
Speaker 1: the type of player that will end up being better

624
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 1: in real life than in fantasy. He's someone who you know,

625
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,520
Speaker 1: like like one of his like looser comps. It was

626
00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:59,560
Speaker 1: like a Martavis Bryant type, right, that's like his upside

627
00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:01,840
Speaker 1: I think, and what he if you want to envision

628
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:04,520
Speaker 1: what he can do in the NFL. But in today's game,

629
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:06,800
Speaker 1: more teams are playing more too high. We're not seeing

630
00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:08,560
Speaker 1: the big plays. And obviously he has Bryce Young a

631
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:11,520
Speaker 1: quarterback right now, it's it's a little bit, you know,

632
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 1: there's some fear that he's just not going to be

633
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:16,600
Speaker 1: that productive, but he can really open things up underneath

634
00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:19,760
Speaker 1: for a Jalen Cocher and for a Tetoroa McMillan and

635
00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:22,840
Speaker 1: so uh. And you know, it allows some flexibility with

636
00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:26,200
Speaker 1: those two weapons, who I think, are you know, awesome

637
00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 1: wide receivers.

638
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:27,719
Speaker 3: Uh.

639
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:29,840
Speaker 1: While Brazil can stretch a field play the outside, we

640
00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:31,920
Speaker 1: can get a little bit more movement for for McMillan

641
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:34,080
Speaker 1: into the slot and such. And I do think that

642
00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:37,040
Speaker 1: brasl has more upside than than like if I look

643
00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 1: at them as prospects, Brazil had more upside as a

644
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 1: prospect than Xavier Legett did right. The problem with with

645
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:46,360
Speaker 1: Brasl is he's coming from Tennessee and it's just been

646
00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 1: a really hard school to evaluate from historically. And and

647
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:52,680
Speaker 1: you know, we've seen like Jalen hygap Bus, Cedric Tillman

648
00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 1: hasn't really done what we would hypothetically want him to

649
00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:58,000
Speaker 1: do as a day he was a Day two pick,

650
00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:01,800
Speaker 1: and so you know, there's there's definitely volatility there. But

651
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:05,680
Speaker 1: I expect Brazl, if he's healthy, to be able to

652
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:09,240
Speaker 1: outperform Xavier Laguette and take that three job for Carolina.

653
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 1: So fingers crossed that that things are okay, all right.

654
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:19,720
Speaker 3: Booty rocking everywhere. Kashawn Booty has been the standout receiver

655
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:24,080
Speaker 3: of Patriots camp. This is according to multiple Beat riders.

656
00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:25,320
Speaker 1: Oh, like everyone is saying it.

657
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:28,600
Speaker 3: Yeah maybe so. I don't think he's starting like in

658
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 3: the three wide receiver sets, but he's coming on. He's

659
00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:33,120
Speaker 3: playing the X and he's like he's just making plays.

660
00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:35,120
Speaker 3: It's hard to keep a guy like that out.

661
00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, like I've been drafting a lot of

662
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:41,160
Speaker 1: Booty in bastball because I was anticipating a possible trade. Yes,

663
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 1: So I mean, you know, results over process, Right, that's

664
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:45,080
Speaker 1: what we say.

665
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:48,480
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, in our draft yesterday, in the late round

666
00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:50,720
Speaker 3: Best Ball Draft, I was gonna get him. I was

667
00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:53,120
Speaker 3: gonna plan on getting him. He had taken in the

668
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:53,840
Speaker 3: fourteenth round.

669
00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:56,440
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I mean he's rising up draft boards. But again,

670
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,440
Speaker 1: he is definitely a betteran bastball type player because I

671
00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:03,800
Speaker 1: do not think you're going to get very reasonable predictability

672
00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:05,920
Speaker 1: from him unless you're in like a deeper format where

673
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:08,320
Speaker 1: you know you don't have to really make start sit decisions.

674
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:10,120
Speaker 1: But you know, if you look at what he's done,

675
00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,360
Speaker 1: he's been a perimeter receiver so far in the NFL.

676
00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 1: I liked him as a prospect because he was an

677
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:16,760
Speaker 1: early declare and he was younger. He still won Day three,

678
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:19,480
Speaker 1: but he had a decent profile. Ahusin profile, we know

679
00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:21,520
Speaker 1: that though like he was, he was someone that a

680
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:23,800
Speaker 1: lot of people thought was going to be like highly

681
00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:26,440
Speaker 1: highly drafted coming out, and then it just didn't you know,

682
00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:29,720
Speaker 1: is his final season wasn't as great as people expected

683
00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:31,640
Speaker 1: it to be. And then you know, we've seen him

684
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 1: in the NFL not necessarily live up to the hype,

685
00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:37,560
Speaker 1: but every year he's gotten better. His yards per out

686
00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:41,520
Speaker 1: run has gotten better every year. You know, his his

687
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,600
Speaker 1: targets per out run needs to need some improvement. That

688
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:46,840
Speaker 1: hasn't been that strong. But you're pairing a guy who

689
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:48,760
Speaker 1: can get down the field with a player in Drake

690
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,400
Speaker 1: May who can really sling it down the field. That's

691
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:54,000
Speaker 1: where you know we saw magic happen even last year

692
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,400
Speaker 1: at times. So you know he's a young player still,

693
00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:59,040
Speaker 1: so I'm not surprised that, like, you know, if he

694
00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,480
Speaker 1: can get it together, betwe in the ears, Uh, it

695
00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 1: can come together and practice and then in games. And

696
00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:05,680
Speaker 1: I think at this point, just based on these reports,

697
00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:09,920
Speaker 1: it's either New England media is all over this trying

698
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:13,239
Speaker 1: to get something in return for Kishon Booty, which I don't.

699
00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:15,759
Speaker 3: I don't rule that out. I never almost floated that

700
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:16,880
Speaker 3: as a possibility.

701
00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:19,800
Speaker 1: I never I never ever ruled that out. With that

702
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:22,520
Speaker 1: being said, I don't think that's what's happening here because

703
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:26,520
Speaker 1: there is a forward, positive trajectory for Booty career wise,

704
00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:28,800
Speaker 1: and you know, I don't think that you can have

705
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:30,880
Speaker 1: too many wide receivers when you're a team like New

706
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,520
Speaker 1: England and uh, you know you're you have Super Bowl

707
00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:36,040
Speaker 1: aspirations and you can move guys around you know, like

708
00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:38,719
Speaker 1: like it gives them a lot more flexibility to do

709
00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:40,440
Speaker 1: things in the slot with like a Dobbs.

710
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:41,080
Speaker 2: Uh.

711
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:43,719
Speaker 1: You know it's even Booty can maybe play in the

712
00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:45,799
Speaker 1: slot a little bit more. Uh, So it gives them

713
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:49,200
Speaker 1: that flexibility. Obviously they have like pure slot guys like

714
00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:52,719
Speaker 1: the Mario Douglas. Maybe Kyle Williams can play in the

715
00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:55,160
Speaker 1: slot a little bit more if he gets playing time.

716
00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:57,839
Speaker 1: It's not looking good for him, uh, but he's put

717
00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:01,239
Speaker 1: one guy getting overall, I think this is just good

718
00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:03,439
Speaker 1: news for the New England offense. And he's a better

719
00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:05,040
Speaker 1: best ball pick than he is going to be a

720
00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:06,640
Speaker 1: managed season Like, he's not going to be a late

721
00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:09,279
Speaker 1: round dart throw for me, even if my rankings are

722
00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:11,719
Speaker 1: ahead of the market with Booty, it's just it's a

723
00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:15,920
Speaker 1: hard sell for a managed season long league in my opinion.

724
00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:16,760
Speaker 1: With Kisehan Boody.

725
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:20,440
Speaker 3: All Right, Christian Kirk's sidelined with a calf injury, and

726
00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:26,160
Speaker 3: meanwhile Dejean's stribbling shocker. People are heaping praise on him

727
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:30,600
Speaker 3: from the Niners organization, calling him a baller, saying he's

728
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:32,040
Speaker 3: looking a part that sort of thing.

729
00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:34,719
Speaker 1: Look, I think that's stribbling they they they view him

730
00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:37,239
Speaker 1: as a Juwan Jennings type period like this is he's

731
00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:39,560
Speaker 1: a good blocker. I mean, I'm not I've said this

732
00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:44,320
Speaker 1: before in a show. I'm not grinding design Stribbling blocking film,

733
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:48,080
Speaker 1: but I do think that they view him in that way.

734
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:50,160
Speaker 1: That doesn't mean that he's gonna be great for fantasy

735
00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:53,920
Speaker 1: football necessarily, but he's a player who has good size

736
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:56,640
Speaker 1: and speed, and these types of players generally do show

737
00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,040
Speaker 1: up this time of year, you know, in these camps,

738
00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:02,400
Speaker 1: especially when when it's not a full blown training camp situation.

739
00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:05,279
Speaker 1: But with you know, with that being said, I think

740
00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:09,320
Speaker 1: Stribling should be on your late round radar because you

741
00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:11,600
Speaker 1: have Ricky Piersall who hasn't been able to stay healthy

742
00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:14,760
Speaker 1: you know, throughout his career. You have Mike Evans who's

743
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:17,680
Speaker 1: older and has had his own issues, and then you

744
00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:20,520
Speaker 1: have George Kittle coming off in Achilles. So yeah, I mean,

745
00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:22,759
Speaker 1: like this is an offense we want to invest in.

746
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:25,280
Speaker 1: If Stribling's the wide receiver three right now with multiple

747
00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:29,400
Speaker 1: injury outs, he should be rising up draft boards regardless

748
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:31,440
Speaker 1: of I mean, now that we know that Christian Kirk

749
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:34,920
Speaker 1: is in his way, that there's just one less, one

750
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:37,279
Speaker 1: less person in his way to be able to be

751
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:40,319
Speaker 1: fantasy relevant. So yeah, I mean like I didn't love

752
00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:43,000
Speaker 1: him as a prospect, obviously the whole market didn't really

753
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:45,640
Speaker 1: love him as a prospect. Doesn't mean that that that's

754
00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:48,480
Speaker 1: gonna happen, that it's not gonna come together for him

755
00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:50,920
Speaker 1: to be a usable piece in fantasy. So I do

756
00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:52,400
Speaker 1: think if you're in the late rounds right now, you

757
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:53,960
Speaker 1: should be looking at him. The problem is in best

758
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:57,359
Speaker 1: ball in particular, like usually managed season long lags behind

759
00:36:57,440 --> 00:36:57,839
Speaker 1: best ball.

760
00:36:58,239 --> 00:36:58,640
Speaker 3: Best Ball.

761
00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:00,000
Speaker 1: He's been going like I saw him in Round three

762
00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,400
Speaker 1: team yesterday, which I don't know if I.

763
00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:05,520
Speaker 3: Can get there, steam things up or they'll drop you

764
00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:08,880
Speaker 3: really quick. People are very knee jerk reactionary.

765
00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:12,759
Speaker 1: But in a managed season long league, I think that

766
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:15,520
Speaker 1: he's going to be someone to just like throw that

767
00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:17,640
Speaker 1: dart at and just see what happens weeks one and two,

768
00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:19,640
Speaker 1: and then you can just throw them suddenly the waiver wire.

769
00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:23,840
Speaker 3: If it's not happening, especially with deep rosters, Okay, we

770
00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:26,239
Speaker 3: got to move on. But just a quick recap, Terry

771
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:29,320
Speaker 3: Kill doesn't have any power in his leg. Brandon ayuk

772
00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:33,320
Speaker 3: Is just continues to go off the deep end, and

773
00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:35,359
Speaker 3: then we still don't have a landing spot for step

774
00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:39,719
Speaker 3: On Diggs, Deebo Samuel or Keenan Allen. So hopefully some

775
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:42,120
Speaker 3: of these teams can figure that out. So with that

776
00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:46,280
Speaker 3: being said, let's get on to today's data. Today's data

777
00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:48,680
Speaker 3: are very simple.

778
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:51,640
Speaker 1: Yes, go ahead, very simple today, and we can keep

779
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:56,080
Speaker 1: it quick. This is showing you team strength of schedule

780
00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:59,280
Speaker 1: by projected wind total or you know, draftings win total

781
00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:03,040
Speaker 1: by team. So Arizona is at the top because they

782
00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:05,520
Speaker 1: have the hardest schedule in football. Their average opponent has

783
00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:08,760
Speaker 1: a win total of nine point one this year. Miami's second.

784
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:13,600
Speaker 1: It's hilarious. Of these terrible teams have horrible schedules. Carolina's third,

785
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:14,960
Speaker 1: and so on and so forth. If you look at

786
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:18,080
Speaker 1: the bottom, Detroit I mentioned this on the show. They

787
00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:20,239
Speaker 1: have the easiest schedule in the league. New Orleans is

788
00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:24,800
Speaker 1: second easiest. Cleveland, Cincinnati, the Jets, the Ravens, the Eagles

789
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:28,200
Speaker 1: all have pretty easy schedules. So you can just look

790
00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:30,880
Speaker 1: at this. You can screenshot this if you want, but

791
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:33,000
Speaker 1: this is just looking at who has easy schedules and

792
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:35,239
Speaker 1: who has hard schedules. And this is all based off

793
00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:37,440
Speaker 1: of the schedule analysis stuff that I did on the

794
00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 1: podcast that dropped on Tuesday. So if you want to

795
00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:43,359
Speaker 1: get like more detailed insights as to how I look

796
00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:45,520
Speaker 1: at this kind of thing, I talk about that a

797
00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:48,200
Speaker 1: lot on that show and on that episode.

798
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:52,839
Speaker 3: All right, let's get on to today's main events. It's

799
00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:58,680
Speaker 3: the late round main event, all right. These are your

800
00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:02,440
Speaker 3: favorite picks rounds one through five. I will say I

801
00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:06,280
Speaker 3: was a little bit surprised two of these guys also

802
00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:10,160
Speaker 3: on last year's Oh were they? Yeah, I'm not gonna

803
00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:11,640
Speaker 3: tell you who. You can guess afterwards.

804
00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:16,200
Speaker 1: That was probably wrong about both. Uh, all right, I

805
00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:20,920
Speaker 1: took these this ADP from Fantasy Pros. Yeah, ADP is

806
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:22,960
Speaker 1: different every set that you look at. So I'm basing

807
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:24,920
Speaker 1: this off of these twelve guys. I'm gonna read them

808
00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:27,160
Speaker 1: just so everyone knows, right, And this is in order

809
00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:31,000
Speaker 1: jon Robinson, Jamier Gibbs, Jamar Chase Pukinakua And this is

810
00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:34,239
Speaker 1: in order Christian McCaffrey, Jackson Smith and Jag But Jonathan Taylor,

811
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 1: Amana Saint Brown, James Cook, Ashton Genty, Ceedee Lamb, and

812
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:41,320
Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson. And my pick, my favorite first round value

813
00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:46,920
Speaker 1: is Ashton Genty, I think he belongs in that Jonathan

814
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:50,000
Speaker 1: Taylor James Cooked here. It's hard for me to be

815
00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:52,080
Speaker 1: like like, I mean, it's the first round, so I

816
00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:54,400
Speaker 1: don't think there's like any glaring values this is. I

817
00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:57,440
Speaker 1: think how I have my first round, I might have

818
00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:01,239
Speaker 1: uh Saquon in there instead of Justin Jefferson or CD

819
00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:03,120
Speaker 1: or something like that. But like it's very close to

820
00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:05,360
Speaker 1: how my first round is. I like Jamiir Gibbs more

821
00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:08,839
Speaker 1: than Bijon and such. I like Puka ahead of Jamar Chase,

822
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:11,279
Speaker 1: but it's you know, you're splitting hairs there. But with

823
00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:15,279
Speaker 1: Ashton Genty, okay. First off Market score loves him. He

824
00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:19,000
Speaker 1: has an RB four market score, behind Bijean, Jamiir Gibbs,

825
00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:22,120
Speaker 1: and Christian McCaffrey. He also had an Elite Year two

826
00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:25,120
Speaker 1: model score of ninety nine point six, which tries to

827
00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:27,160
Speaker 1: predict how well a player is going to perform in

828
00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:30,000
Speaker 1: years two through four. Guys who are in that tier

829
00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:33,160
Speaker 1: almost always give us at least, you know, usually multiple

830
00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:35,719
Speaker 1: RB one seasons, but at least one over their next

831
00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:39,920
Speaker 1: three seasons. He had an Elite Year one weighted opportunity

832
00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:42,400
Speaker 1: When you look at targets and rushes and way targets

833
00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:46,440
Speaker 1: properly for how important they are from a fantasy points perspective. Now,

834
00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:47,799
Speaker 1: I know that a lot of people will look at

835
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:49,359
Speaker 1: last year and say that he sucks because he had

836
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:52,160
Speaker 1: a three point seven yards per carry average. Keep in mind,

837
00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:54,600
Speaker 1: yards per Carrie is not predictive, and he had the

838
00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:58,240
Speaker 1: second worst yards before contact per attempt in the NFL,

839
00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:02,560
Speaker 1: only Quinn Shawn Judkins lower according to Pro Football Focus.

840
00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:05,680
Speaker 1: They also get Tyler Linderbaum and Colton Miller's coming back

841
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:09,600
Speaker 1: from injury, and they get Clint Kubiak, who We're gonna

842
00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:11,719
Speaker 1: see a lot of these like outside zone runs. I

843
00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:14,000
Speaker 1: think gent can really thrive there. There's been a lot

844
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:15,960
Speaker 1: of research done, Like I know, I remember going on

845
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:18,920
Speaker 1: and talking to James co about this when he was

846
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:20,799
Speaker 1: on Perspectives last year. I think it was last year,

847
00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:23,320
Speaker 1: and he was talking about how those like outside runs

848
00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:25,759
Speaker 1: just are awesome for fantasy football purposes. I think we're

849
00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:28,240
Speaker 1: going to see a lot of them from Ashton genty

850
00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:31,160
Speaker 1: this year and since twenty eleven. I think this is

851
00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:32,960
Speaker 1: interesting too. I've said this before on the show, but

852
00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:36,279
Speaker 1: since twenty eleven, there's only one other rookie running back

853
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:38,759
Speaker 1: who had an eighty percent running back rush air and

854
00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:41,640
Speaker 1: a target share as high as Ashton Gent's, and it's

855
00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:45,720
Speaker 1: Saquon Barkley. So with there being such little competition in Vegas,

856
00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:48,560
Speaker 1: you know, typically I don't want to invest in kind

857
00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:52,239
Speaker 1: of like mediocre to bad offenses, especially early. But the

858
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:54,040
Speaker 1: one way you can bat that is through volume, and

859
00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:55,680
Speaker 1: I think Gent's going to see a lot of volume

860
00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:59,319
Speaker 1: in a good offensive scheme for him. So I'm going

861
00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:02,360
Speaker 1: to call out Jentys as a breakout this year and

862
00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:04,399
Speaker 1: a guy that I like to target at the tail

863
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:05,160
Speaker 1: end of round one.

864
00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:09,760
Speaker 3: I love gen T. I got him in that King's

865
00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:13,440
Speaker 3: Plastic Auction draft and I paired him with another running

866
00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:16,279
Speaker 3: back who's actually your favorite target in round two? How

867
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:17,279
Speaker 3: good did I do? JJ?

868
00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:21,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, Kenneth Walker, I'm just gonna read this and listen

869
00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:26,239
Speaker 1: to this list before you start, you know, yeah, criticizing

870
00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:29,400
Speaker 1: or thinking about why I'm talking about Walker thirteenth. Overall,

871
00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:32,600
Speaker 1: you have Devon a Chan than At Sakwon, Barkley, Chase Brown,

872
00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:36,480
Speaker 1: Amari and Hampton, Drake London, Trey McBride, brock Bauers, Kenneth Walker,

873
00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:41,719
Speaker 1: Josh Allen, Derrick Henry, AJ Brown, Nico Collins. So as

874
00:42:41,800 --> 00:42:44,080
Speaker 1: I go through and do more and more drafts for

875
00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:47,080
Speaker 1: season long leagues, I start to like see where I

876
00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:50,120
Speaker 1: really stand with certain players, right and one of those

877
00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:52,000
Speaker 1: players over the last couple of weeks for me has

878
00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:54,680
Speaker 1: been Kenneth Walker. Where I've had him in that tier

879
00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:57,719
Speaker 1: with all those running backs throughout the summer, I've just

880
00:42:57,760 --> 00:43:00,200
Speaker 1: had him lower in that tier than I do now

881
00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:02,880
Speaker 1: this next Like I think that I like, I'm drafting

882
00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:05,719
Speaker 1: him over a Marion Hampton, I'm drafting him over Davon Chan,

883
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:09,040
Speaker 1: I'm drafting him over you know, Derek Henry, and then

884
00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:11,960
Speaker 1: like the Drake London. The fact that Trey McBride in

885
00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:14,400
Speaker 1: this ADP is going ahead of Rock Bauers is silly

886
00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:17,720
Speaker 1: to me. But yeah, I mean like him going twentieth overall,

887
00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:19,480
Speaker 1: I think he's more of like closer to a one

888
00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:23,000
Speaker 1: two turn player. Uh you know he was, Like I said,

889
00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:25,200
Speaker 1: I drafted him. I drafted him in the auction this

890
00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:29,080
Speaker 1: past weekend, Kansas City was twenty fifth and rushing yards

891
00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:29,399
Speaker 1: per game.

892
00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:29,839
Speaker 3: Last year.

893
00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:32,240
Speaker 1: Brandan Godula pulled this back in the during the offseason,

894
00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:34,440
Speaker 1: but they were seventh in EPA per Russian they were

895
00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:38,440
Speaker 1: eighth and success rate. Kareem Hunt and Isaiah Pacheco I

896
00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:41,600
Speaker 1: talked about this in the Free Agency podcast. They combined

897
00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:44,640
Speaker 1: for one twenty plus yard run last year on two

898
00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:47,719
Speaker 1: hundred and eighty plus carries. Their rate of gaining ten

899
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:50,399
Speaker 1: or more yards was eight point five percent and six

900
00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:53,320
Speaker 1: point one percent. Kenneth Walker was almost at fifteen percent

901
00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:56,720
Speaker 1: In terms of gaining more or ten or more yards

902
00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:59,520
Speaker 1: per run you get are you're getting a home run

903
00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:03,200
Speaker 1: hittering Kenneth Walker combine with a team that is going

904
00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:05,640
Speaker 1: to face a lot of too high and it's a

905
00:44:05,719 --> 00:44:09,239
Speaker 1: team that generates high success rates because of that. Right,

906
00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:11,800
Speaker 1: A huge reason that Kareem Hunt was so high in

907
00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:14,520
Speaker 1: success rate last year is because they'll get some of

908
00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:17,359
Speaker 1: that push, They'll get the yards that are given to him,

909
00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:19,080
Speaker 1: but he can't do much more after that because it's

910
00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:22,840
Speaker 1: Kareem Hunt, right, And so Kenneth Walker in that situation

911
00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:26,040
Speaker 1: is like next level. There's so much rushing upside in

912
00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:27,719
Speaker 1: what he can do. So this really comes down to

913
00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:30,600
Speaker 1: what can you do as a pass catcher. I've always

914
00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:32,719
Speaker 1: thought that he's been fine as a pass catcher. He's

915
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:34,680
Speaker 1: only had one season where he's been above like that

916
00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:36,840
Speaker 1: eight percent mark, which is definitely a problem. Like we

917
00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:38,680
Speaker 1: if you're drafting him in the one two turn, you

918
00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:41,319
Speaker 1: need that at least like a ten percent target share

919
00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:43,800
Speaker 1: from him. But if you look at what they have

920
00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:47,480
Speaker 1: in the backfield, I love them at Johnson as a prospect,

921
00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:50,880
Speaker 1: but traditionally rookie running backs do not see high target shares.

922
00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:54,600
Speaker 1: I learned my lesson last year with Traveon Henderson, and

923
00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:56,400
Speaker 1: so I don't want to get too too bullish on that.

924
00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:59,399
Speaker 1: And then you're looking at like Amari dear Mercado as

925
00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:02,000
Speaker 1: the third down back. I think it's fine if he

926
00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:05,200
Speaker 1: plays a third down role, or even if Emma Johnson does,

927
00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:08,200
Speaker 1: but I don't think that just means that there's no

928
00:45:08,400 --> 00:45:12,200
Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker love from a receiving perspective. So you bring

929
00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:15,120
Speaker 1: all that together. Patrick Mahomes coming off this acl where

930
00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:18,080
Speaker 1: he's probably not going to be getting much goal line rushing.

931
00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:20,920
Speaker 1: I mean, it's not like they run sneaks with him anyway.

932
00:45:21,360 --> 00:45:23,840
Speaker 1: But all of that combine makes me just really like

933
00:45:23,960 --> 00:45:26,959
Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker in this profile. And I feel like every

934
00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:28,880
Speaker 1: day that I think about this mor and I research

935
00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:32,440
Speaker 1: it and just go go through things more. I'm moving

936
00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:33,800
Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker up my ranks.

937
00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:39,800
Speaker 3: All right, So round three, you've got DeVonta Smith.

938
00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:44,239
Speaker 1: Yes, so DeVante Smith. I think this was a call.

939
00:45:44,360 --> 00:45:46,560
Speaker 1: I probably had him last year. Is that one of

940
00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:50,920
Speaker 1: the Yeah, not great, not great, bob uh, But Davante

941
00:45:51,040 --> 00:45:54,480
Speaker 1: Smith his splits without AJ Brown. Obviously you have Mackay

942
00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:56,719
Speaker 1: Lemon there now Eli Stowers. I don't know how big

943
00:45:56,800 --> 00:45:58,880
Speaker 1: of a threat he's going to be year one, but

944
00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:02,600
Speaker 1: in career year games without AJ Brown he now, mind you,

945
00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:04,920
Speaker 1: DeVante Smith played his rookie year without Brown and then

946
00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:07,960
Speaker 1: Brown entered the Fold for four games. He was out

947
00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:11,600
Speaker 1: when he got to Philadelphia. With Devonte Smith acted, he

948
00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:13,800
Speaker 1: is a twenty five point six percent target share in

949
00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:16,960
Speaker 1: his career without AJ Brown. He's played four games without

950
00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:20,359
Speaker 1: him since twenty twenty two, thirty five percent target share

951
00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:22,839
Speaker 1: in those four games, which is pretty wild. Ninety seven

952
00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:25,640
Speaker 1: yards per game without AJ Brown in those four games,

953
00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:28,920
Speaker 1: thirty two percent targets per out run rate, all crazy.

954
00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:33,480
Speaker 1: I mean, those are that's literally like jsnesque usage.

955
00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:33,839
Speaker 3: Right.

956
00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:37,160
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that that's what's gonna happen now, because

957
00:46:37,160 --> 00:46:41,160
Speaker 1: you do have still like McKay lemon, Dontavian Wicks. But

958
00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:43,600
Speaker 1: with that being said, like it does give us a

959
00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:48,560
Speaker 1: sample of Devonte Smith being an alpha for an NFL offense, right,

960
00:46:48,880 --> 00:46:51,440
Speaker 1: even if it's a small sample. There's a new offensive

961
00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:54,840
Speaker 1: coordinator in Philadelphia. I mean, I've I've beaten this, this

962
00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:58,320
Speaker 1: dead horse at this point with Kevin Patulo and how awful.

963
00:46:58,680 --> 00:47:01,439
Speaker 1: Just go look at the out charts for AJ Brown

964
00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:04,719
Speaker 1: last year. You know, there was a tweet yesterday where

965
00:47:05,360 --> 00:47:07,800
Speaker 1: AJ Brown and Drake May couldn't connect on like a

966
00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:11,040
Speaker 1: crosser that AJ Brown was running, and everyone's like, oh man,

967
00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:13,279
Speaker 1: this is this is bad. This is I'm like, wait,

968
00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:15,800
Speaker 1: they're running, they're running crossers with AJ Brown like he's

969
00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:18,080
Speaker 1: gonna he's gonna hit the middle of the field. You mean, like,

970
00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:21,959
Speaker 1: this is amazing. That's why I'm more bolish about this clip,

971
00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:24,560
Speaker 1: even though they didn't connect on the pass. But Devontae

972
00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:26,400
Speaker 1: Smith has had a floor too. He's hit fourteen or

973
00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:28,880
Speaker 1: more points per game in three of his five seasons.

974
00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:31,120
Speaker 1: The only two seasons where he didn't. One was his

975
00:47:31,239 --> 00:47:33,840
Speaker 1: rookie year where guys just don't score them many points

976
00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:36,480
Speaker 1: per game across the entire season. The other one was

977
00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:39,320
Speaker 1: the Patula season was last year. So I'm in a

978
00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:41,680
Speaker 1: Devonte Smith. I like him in this range. I should

979
00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:44,240
Speaker 1: read this range though, too. I didn't do that. Jeremiah

980
00:47:44,320 --> 00:47:47,960
Speaker 1: Love twenty fifth overall. Then George Pickens, Josh Jacobs, Chris

981
00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:52,560
Speaker 1: olave Kian Williams, Rashi, Rice, Javonte Williams, Breese Hall, Devonte Smith,

982
00:47:52,920 --> 00:47:56,799
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson, camp Skataboo, Tetero McMillan. It's funny because there's

983
00:47:56,840 --> 00:47:58,359
Speaker 1: some guys in the fourth round that I would draft

984
00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:00,400
Speaker 1: over some of these guys in the third round. It

985
00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:03,000
Speaker 1: does show there's a very real flatness that starts to

986
00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:05,279
Speaker 1: occur once you hit the middle of round three, which

987
00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:08,160
Speaker 1: traditionally and historically that's what we've seen with hit rates

988
00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:09,160
Speaker 1: in fantasy football too.

989
00:48:10,719 --> 00:48:13,040
Speaker 3: All right, round four, I'll read him off for you.

990
00:48:13,560 --> 00:48:18,440
Speaker 3: My league neighbors, Travis etn T. Higgins, Say Flowers, Garrett Wilson,

991
00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:23,880
Speaker 3: Colson Lovelin, a Mecca, Agbuka, Bucky Irving, Lad McConkie Quinchawn Judkins,

992
00:48:23,920 --> 00:48:27,040
Speaker 3: Trayvon Henderson, and Luther Burden. Yeah.

993
00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:29,520
Speaker 1: I thought about going Burden here. I'll be honest, you

994
00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:32,120
Speaker 1: might you know, I love Luther Burden. I am on

995
00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:34,719
Speaker 1: that side. I sent a tweet out earlier this week

996
00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:37,360
Speaker 1: where it was something along the lines of like, you know,

997
00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:40,040
Speaker 1: if you think that Burden's bad at cost this year

998
00:48:40,080 --> 00:48:42,239
Speaker 1: and he's a bad pick, you're not wrong. But if

999
00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:44,160
Speaker 1: you think that he's a great pick, you're also not wrong.

1000
00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:47,359
Speaker 1: And then people were accusing me of fence sitting. I'm like, bro,

1001
00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:49,560
Speaker 1: if you listen to the podcast, if you listen to

1002
00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:51,040
Speaker 1: me the last year and a half, you know that

1003
00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:52,880
Speaker 1: I don't fence it with Luther Burton. I am in

1004
00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:55,200
Speaker 1: on Luther Burton. I think he's a very very good player.

1005
00:48:55,880 --> 00:48:58,680
Speaker 1: With that being said, I'm gonna go a Mecca Buka

1006
00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:01,360
Speaker 1: here because I think he's just be going higher, whereas

1007
00:49:01,440 --> 00:49:04,759
Speaker 1: I understand the bear case more for Luther Burden, a

1008
00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:08,240
Speaker 1: Mecha Buka. I talked about this on last week's market

1009
00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:12,279
Speaker 1: Score Projection show. He has insane market score comps. He's

1010
00:49:12,280 --> 00:49:16,040
Speaker 1: a top five wide receiver when you project via those comps,

1011
00:49:16,120 --> 00:49:18,399
Speaker 1: not by market score. He's not bad in market score,

1012
00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:20,799
Speaker 1: but when you look at the comps, it's just good

1013
00:49:20,880 --> 00:49:23,399
Speaker 1: comp after good comp. And that makes me feel more

1014
00:49:23,520 --> 00:49:27,080
Speaker 1: confident in Abuka himself. Last year, it was a story

1015
00:49:27,160 --> 00:49:29,120
Speaker 1: of the first five weeks. He was dominating, he was

1016
00:49:29,160 --> 00:49:32,440
Speaker 1: converting all these deep passes, he was doing everything, and

1017
00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:36,040
Speaker 1: then he got hurt and Baker got hurt. And if

1018
00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:39,560
Speaker 1: you're watching Netflix's Quarterback right now, you can see how

1019
00:49:39,640 --> 00:49:42,799
Speaker 1: bad Baker's injuries were. And they talk about this whole

1020
00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:45,880
Speaker 1: dynamic throughout that show. But week one to five, a

1021
00:49:45,920 --> 00:49:48,160
Speaker 1: mecha Buka led the NFL with two hundred and ninety

1022
00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:52,719
Speaker 1: one twenty plus air yard throw receiving yards on on

1023
00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:55,719
Speaker 1: those twenty plus aeryard throws, he had ninety one from

1024
00:49:55,760 --> 00:49:57,279
Speaker 1: then on out. I mean, it was just night and

1025
00:49:57,440 --> 00:50:00,920
Speaker 1: day with the Buka bring to a hundredth out of

1026
00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:04,239
Speaker 1: one hundred and three in catchable targets rates among qualified

1027
00:50:04,280 --> 00:50:07,640
Speaker 1: wide receivers after week five. But now you're looking at

1028
00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:10,919
Speaker 1: a situation Zach Robinson comes to town. They've already talked

1029
00:50:10,920 --> 00:50:14,160
Speaker 1: about Abuka playing that Z role. I think a lot

1030
00:50:14,239 --> 00:50:17,000
Speaker 1: of people, you know, look at like Godwin playing the

1031
00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:20,160
Speaker 1: slot and they're like, oh man slot role with Zach Robinson.

1032
00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:23,319
Speaker 1: That's when Cooper Cup dominated. But Cooper Cup played more

1033
00:50:23,360 --> 00:50:25,719
Speaker 1: of a Z where he's moving inside out. He's not

1034
00:50:26,160 --> 00:50:28,640
Speaker 1: he's not a pure slot when he had that monster,

1035
00:50:28,760 --> 00:50:31,960
Speaker 1: monster season, and so I think that they could deploy

1036
00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:34,480
Speaker 1: Abuka in a very similar way. Don't forget when he

1037
00:50:34,600 --> 00:50:37,080
Speaker 1: came out last year, a lot of people thought Abuka

1038
00:50:37,239 --> 00:50:39,040
Speaker 1: was a pure slot. You know, you can go back

1039
00:50:39,120 --> 00:50:42,719
Speaker 1: and read the Prospect Guide from last year where I

1040
00:50:42,800 --> 00:50:44,600
Speaker 1: talked about how, you know, I thought he was more

1041
00:50:44,640 --> 00:50:46,880
Speaker 1: than that. The Zach model thought he was more than that.

1042
00:50:47,280 --> 00:50:49,680
Speaker 1: That was a very common thought about Hi Mecca a Buka.

1043
00:50:49,760 --> 00:50:53,200
Speaker 1: And that's interestingly enough, one of his comps was Robert Woods,

1044
00:50:53,520 --> 00:50:56,399
Speaker 1: who Zach Robinson would have coached, you know, back back

1045
00:50:56,440 --> 00:50:59,719
Speaker 1: in the day. But I think Abuka could work really

1046
00:50:59,760 --> 00:51:02,920
Speaker 1: well in an inside out role in this Tampa Bay offense,

1047
00:51:02,960 --> 00:51:06,240
Speaker 1: and if everyone's healthy, he could really have a monster season.

1048
00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:10,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, some are comparing kind of what happened in Seattle

1049
00:51:10,480 --> 00:51:15,480
Speaker 3: last year after DK Metcalf left, Jason stepped up into

1050
00:51:15,520 --> 00:51:17,600
Speaker 3: that role, and now you have Mike Evans leaving and

1051
00:51:18,440 --> 00:51:21,879
Speaker 3: you haven't mecay Buka right to just step into that role.

1052
00:51:22,040 --> 00:51:24,799
Speaker 3: And we did his comment saying, yeah, I was at

1053
00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:29,000
Speaker 3: Buka going much higher. Again, this is not best ball,

1054
00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:31,400
Speaker 3: this is just redraft ADP.

1055
00:51:33,160 --> 00:51:36,760
Speaker 1: Everyone's everyone's per it's very frustrating as a fantasy analyst.

1056
00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:42,120
Speaker 1: Everyone's perception of ADP is so different, and it's based

1057
00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:45,560
Speaker 1: on what you're just generally playing, like what platform you're

1058
00:51:45,600 --> 00:51:48,680
Speaker 1: generally playing on. And so that's why in the draft guide,

1059
00:51:48,800 --> 00:51:52,440
Speaker 1: I'm very specific about where this guy's a value. I'm

1060
00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:55,560
Speaker 1: looking at Yahoo and ESPN mostly as like the two platforms,

1061
00:51:55,560 --> 00:51:59,120
Speaker 1: because Sleeper at one point was very much being swayed

1062
00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:01,560
Speaker 1: by Dynasty Value and it was kind of skewing things

1063
00:52:01,640 --> 00:52:03,520
Speaker 1: like r. J. Harvey was like a fifth round pick,

1064
00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:06,560
Speaker 1: and it's really hard to you know, like talk about

1065
00:52:06,600 --> 00:52:09,880
Speaker 1: that and buy into that as a realistic ADP. But

1066
00:52:10,040 --> 00:52:13,680
Speaker 1: I am leaning into like you know, CBS even and

1067
00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:16,720
Speaker 1: such and trying to get like a good real feel

1068
00:52:16,760 --> 00:52:20,319
Speaker 1: of the aggregate because people are best ball brained right now.

1069
00:52:20,440 --> 00:52:22,279
Speaker 1: I get it. I am too. I get it, Like

1070
00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:22,880
Speaker 1: I'm not No.

1071
00:52:22,920 --> 00:52:27,960
Speaker 3: One's magazines out that were published last month right with

1072
00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:29,520
Speaker 3: rankings that are static, you know.

1073
00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:32,200
Speaker 1: So I'm trying to be very like deliberate in how

1074
00:52:32,239 --> 00:52:34,600
Speaker 1: I'm talking about these like targets and avoids and stuff,

1075
00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:37,400
Speaker 1: and the same thing. That's why I'm showing these ADP

1076
00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:40,319
Speaker 1: this ADP list that you guys know why I'm coming

1077
00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:43,600
Speaker 1: to the conclusion that I'm coming So was a Buka

1078
00:52:43,640 --> 00:52:45,120
Speaker 1: one of the guys last year on this list?

1079
00:52:45,719 --> 00:52:49,279
Speaker 3: No, it was actually Kenth Walker, Oh was it? Well?

1080
00:52:49,320 --> 00:52:51,520
Speaker 1: I really screwed up this list last year then, but.

1081
00:52:51,560 --> 00:52:56,160
Speaker 3: The other three were good. Get I forget who the

1082
00:52:56,200 --> 00:52:58,400
Speaker 3: other was. All right, who are you to know that

1083
00:52:58,520 --> 00:53:00,800
Speaker 3: the Eagles offense is going to be terrible?

1084
00:53:01,000 --> 00:53:03,239
Speaker 1: I know the Eagles did screw me last year, that's

1085
00:53:03,239 --> 00:53:05,160
Speaker 1: for sure. I had a great season though, So again,

1086
00:53:05,200 --> 00:53:06,680
Speaker 1: it's one of those things where I can look back

1087
00:53:06,719 --> 00:53:09,000
Speaker 1: and be like, yeah, they got me, instead of having

1088
00:53:09,040 --> 00:53:12,840
Speaker 1: to like feel bad about getting that miss getting that l.

1089
00:53:13,800 --> 00:53:18,759
Speaker 3: Okay, Jalen Wattle, Drake May, DJ Moore, Joe Burrow, David Montgomery,

1090
00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:23,600
Speaker 3: Tyler Warren, Terry McLaurin, DeAndre Swift, DeVante Adams, All Roads,

1091
00:53:23,680 --> 00:53:27,640
Speaker 3: Base Shall, Tuton, Jamison Williams, and Jayden Daniels for Round five.

1092
00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:29,759
Speaker 1: Yeah. Look, I like a lot of guys in this

1093
00:53:29,920 --> 00:53:31,840
Speaker 1: round two. You know, I wouldn't be taking a quarterback

1094
00:53:31,880 --> 00:53:35,239
Speaker 1: this early, but I think Tyler Warren's a fun pick

1095
00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:37,960
Speaker 1: this year, maybe not as early. Terry McLaurin was one

1096
00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:41,840
Speaker 1: that I almost put as the best value here. I

1097
00:53:41,920 --> 00:53:43,879
Speaker 1: think that you could easily make that argument. I don't

1098
00:53:43,920 --> 00:53:46,640
Speaker 1: mind DeAndre Swift this year. I obviously like base Shall Tuton,

1099
00:53:47,360 --> 00:53:52,200
Speaker 1: DeVante Adams is fine, JMO's fine, But I'm going Jalen

1100
00:53:52,239 --> 00:53:55,080
Speaker 1: Wattle as my pick at the top of round five.

1101
00:53:55,719 --> 00:53:58,319
Speaker 1: This is an ambiguous pass catching environment, which is usually

1102
00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:01,520
Speaker 1: a good thing for wide receivers, where you know you

1103
00:54:01,600 --> 00:54:03,719
Speaker 1: have Courtland Sutton who's going to play the X, and

1104
00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:06,920
Speaker 1: you have Jalen Waddle, who you know, like a Mechabuka

1105
00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:09,759
Speaker 1: will play more of a zerole. Denver's averaging thirty three

1106
00:54:09,760 --> 00:54:11,480
Speaker 1: and a half past tens per game over their last

1107
00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:13,680
Speaker 1: two seasons. That's an above average numbers, so you should

1108
00:54:13,680 --> 00:54:16,759
Speaker 1: get some passing volume in this offense. They ranked ninth

1109
00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:18,960
Speaker 1: and twelfth in wide receiver target share over the last

1110
00:54:19,000 --> 00:54:22,440
Speaker 1: two seasons. These are bo nix seasons. Wattle has been

1111
00:54:22,520 --> 00:54:25,480
Speaker 1: and I said this at the Fantasy Xpo because I

1112
00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:27,600
Speaker 1: was on a panel and one of the first questions

1113
00:54:27,800 --> 00:54:29,360
Speaker 1: was just a player that we're targeting this year. I

1114
00:54:29,480 --> 00:54:31,040
Speaker 1: just decided to go with Waddle. It's not like I

1115
00:54:31,120 --> 00:54:33,560
Speaker 1: have you know, I mean, I think that I could

1116
00:54:33,640 --> 00:54:36,520
Speaker 1: consider him my favorite value because I think the upside's

1117
00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:41,000
Speaker 1: pretty crazy. So we'll see. But what I said on stage,

1118
00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:43,440
Speaker 1: I'm saying right here is that he's been in two

1119
00:54:43,600 --> 00:54:46,560
Speaker 1: offenses in his career where there his offense has had

1120
00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:50,160
Speaker 1: a positive EPA per play. In those two seasons, he

1121
00:54:50,200 --> 00:54:52,480
Speaker 1: had a two point five to nine and a two

1122
00:54:52,560 --> 00:54:54,960
Speaker 1: point six y three yards per route run rate, which

1123
00:54:55,040 --> 00:54:58,120
Speaker 1: is absolutely bonkers. Those are insanely good. Those are like

1124
00:54:58,320 --> 00:55:03,000
Speaker 1: prime justin Jefferson type numbers. Right now, you get to Denver,

1125
00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:05,479
Speaker 1: like I said, Sutton plays the X. We saw last

1126
00:55:05,560 --> 00:55:08,640
Speaker 1: year Troy Franklin played the zero at times, and there

1127
00:55:08,719 --> 00:55:10,520
Speaker 1: was a stretch I talked to Harmon about this at

1128
00:55:10,560 --> 00:55:13,920
Speaker 1: the expo. There was a stretch where we were getting,

1129
00:55:14,360 --> 00:55:16,719
Speaker 1: you know, like like hit up by all these people

1130
00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:19,719
Speaker 1: saying that Troy Franklin is the wide receiver one in Denver.

1131
00:55:19,880 --> 00:55:21,960
Speaker 1: And it was true, like he was getting that kind

1132
00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:23,600
Speaker 1: of volume. He was an ad for me on fifty

1133
00:55:23,680 --> 00:55:26,600
Speaker 1: transactions all that kind of stuff. But that being said,

1134
00:55:26,719 --> 00:55:28,880
Speaker 1: like I think they realized, hey, Troy Franklin's not it

1135
00:55:29,520 --> 00:55:32,600
Speaker 1: right because you know, he doesn't do well off of press.

1136
00:55:32,840 --> 00:55:36,160
Speaker 1: He's not big enough to do well blocking. And so

1137
00:55:36,280 --> 00:55:38,359
Speaker 1: I think that's why they spent the capitol that they

1138
00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:42,400
Speaker 1: spent to get Jalen Wattle this offseason. So he's been

1139
00:55:42,440 --> 00:55:45,440
Speaker 1: efficient throughout his career. He's now in a really good offense,

1140
00:55:45,520 --> 00:55:47,640
Speaker 1: one of the better offenses in football, more than likely

1141
00:55:48,280 --> 00:55:50,840
Speaker 1: should see a strong target share. I think Jalen Wattle

1142
00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:53,360
Speaker 1: is a very very strong pick this year, especially if

1143
00:55:53,360 --> 00:55:54,359
Speaker 1: you're getting him in round five.

1144
00:55:55,960 --> 00:56:04,680
Speaker 3: All right, let's wrap this up, JJ. All Right, as

1145
00:56:04,719 --> 00:56:09,719
Speaker 3: a reminder, like subscribe, comment on these videos, you get

Speaker 3: a newsletter, you got another one coming out today, you

1147
00:56:12,640 --> 00:56:14,520
Speaker 3: got it behind the scenes one from me coming out

1148
00:56:14,520 --> 00:56:16,880
Speaker 3: on Friday. We have our new membership over there at

1152
00:56:25,920 --> 00:56:28,719
Speaker 3: round at DraftKings they had to draft one, get one.

1153
00:56:28,880 --> 00:56:31,879
Speaker 3: And I also just want to say after the show,

1154
00:56:32,320 --> 00:56:37,560
Speaker 3: JJ is drafting a best ball team. And during the show,

1155
00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:40,840
Speaker 3: I got this email. Maybe your co host could follow

1156
00:56:40,880 --> 00:56:44,080
Speaker 3: you if you didn't jump around all around the show sheet.

1157
00:56:44,200 --> 00:56:47,839
Speaker 3: JJ is getting blamed for your misspelled mistake. So frustrating.

1158
00:56:48,800 --> 00:56:50,520
Speaker 3: It is no wonder he couldn't follow, and you don't

1159
00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:52,960
Speaker 3: even know what a micro sect me sometimes described as

1160
00:56:52,960 --> 00:56:55,360
Speaker 3: a minimally invasive spine surgery because it requires only a

1161
00:56:55,440 --> 00:56:58,160
Speaker 3: small incision and the use of microscope or surgical glass.

1162
00:56:59,200 --> 00:57:06,479
Speaker 3: The surgeon also used. Anyways, is sincerely disappointed. So soone

1163
00:57:06,560 --> 00:57:08,480
Speaker 3: took the time to write that email.

1164
00:57:08,760 --> 00:57:11,279
Speaker 1: My favorite part is that there's clearly a copy paste

1165
00:57:11,360 --> 00:57:14,640
Speaker 1: job with my curtisectamy. We can see the links and stuff.

1166
00:57:14,680 --> 00:57:16,760
Speaker 1: It's very good, very very good email.

1167
00:57:17,280 --> 00:57:19,000
Speaker 3: The person that wrote this email is the same person

1168
00:57:19,040 --> 00:57:21,080
Speaker 3: that will be writing the the email that's in your
