It 0:00:07.280 --> 0:00:10.799 would seem it would be very slow moving trade deadline. 0:00:10.800 --> 0:00:13.920 Then a flurry of activity as multiple trades were reported 0:00:14.000 --> 0:00:17.319 after the deadline passed. The biggest Zack Grenky going to 0:00:17.400 --> 0:00:20.320 the Houston Astros, a big move there for Houston trying 0:00:20.320 --> 0:00:23.160 to shore up their rotation the deadline, de Braves were busy. 0:00:23.200 --> 0:00:25.680 They brought in Shane Green and Mark Valansen to help 0:00:25.720 --> 0:00:28.640 fortify their bullpen to come down to Detroit Tiger slunger 0:00:28.720 --> 0:00:31.480 Nick Costiano's to a crowded outfield. And while the San 0:00:31.480 --> 0:00:34.199 Francisco Giants did not trade Madison bump Garner, they did 0:00:34.200 --> 0:00:37.320 send Drew Promerance to Milwaukee Brewers and Sam Dyson on 0:00:37.360 --> 0:00:40.960 his way to the Minnesota Twins.

Frank stand ball lady, tell me your bfs. 0:01:57.640 --> 0:02:00.480 All right, Welcome to the BFFs everybody. I am Frank 0:02:00.560 --> 0:02:04.160 Stafil No Greg Susman. He's out celebrating yet another bachelor 0:02:04.280 --> 0:02:06.360 party that I was not a part of. And of 0:02:06.400 --> 0:02:10.040 course they that Greg Susman leaves, everything goes to crap. 0:02:10.760 --> 0:02:12.600 That's why we're starting to show late. But better late 0:02:12.639 --> 0:02:14.639 than never is what they always say. I think that's 0:02:14.639 --> 0:02:17.639 what they always say. Anyway. I am Frank Stanfeld joined 0:02:17.720 --> 0:02:20.680 live in studio. Someone that I've been following for a 0:02:20.720 --> 0:02:25.560 while now puts out great content on YouTube, Nick Lano. 0:02:25.680 --> 0:02:27.120 I believe I'm saying your name right. I hope I'm 0:02:27.120 --> 0:02:30.000 saying your name right. Nick Lano. You can fall on 0:02:30.080 --> 0:02:32.640 Twitter at Nick Underscore b d g E. I know 0:02:32.720 --> 0:02:35.799 you have a huge following on YouTube as well. It's 0:02:35.800 --> 0:02:38.040 a pleasure to have you in studio, buddy. I'm excited 0:02:38.080 --> 0:02:39.959 to be here. Man. Anytime I can get out of 0:02:40.000 --> 0:02:42.280 my apartment and get into a studio that has air conditioning, 0:02:42.280 --> 0:02:44.840 I'm all about it. It's New York summers is no joke. Man, 0:02:45.000 --> 0:02:46.919 we barely have air conditioning, so you're giving us a 0:02:46.960 --> 0:02:50.959 little bit too much credit here. And of course in Nashville, Tennessee. 0:02:51.000 --> 0:02:52.519 We'll talk about Nashville little bit because I know you 0:02:52.560 --> 0:02:55.000 went there recently for the NFL Draft. It's her buddy, 0:02:55.120 --> 0:02:58.560 Eric Young, e y. What's going on? Boys? Boys? Good 0:02:58.600 --> 0:03:01.560 to be here. Um happy that we're up and running 0:03:01.560 --> 0:03:04.840 better late than never. That is uh something that they say. 0:03:04.960 --> 0:03:07.520 I don't know who they are and I don't trust them, 0:03:07.639 --> 0:03:10.720 but yeah, and also on top of that, air conditioning 0:03:10.800 --> 0:03:13.440 is good and I started following, Uh a, man, they're 0:03:13.919 --> 0:03:17.119 just a few minutes ago, so we're we're good to go. Yeah, 0:03:17.120 --> 0:03:20.679 this is an opportunity for for you guys to virtually 0:03:20.720 --> 0:03:23.160 meet So Nick, meet e y, e Y meet Nick. 0:03:23.200 --> 0:03:25.480 This is a virtual handsheet. Is that cool? If I 0:03:25.520 --> 0:03:27.160 call you e y? Can we start off with like 0:03:27.200 --> 0:03:30.120 the abbreviations right off the bat? Yeah, that everyone calls 0:03:30.120 --> 0:03:32.480 me that Eric Young is what it stands for. But 0:03:32.600 --> 0:03:35.760 almost no one calls me Eric. Almost everyone calls me 0:03:35.800 --> 0:03:38.960 e y. So yeah, that's a that's convenient. You can 0:03:39.040 --> 0:03:40.880 call me whatever you want, I answered to a bunch 0:03:40.880 --> 0:03:43.040 of different things. I think I'm gonna go with Eric. Then, 0:03:44.000 --> 0:03:45.920 what do you prefer to you? Why do you want 0:03:45.920 --> 0:03:48.200 e y? Do you want Eric? Yeah? I mean e 0:03:48.360 --> 0:03:51.640 wise Fine, it's easier to say, um, long story short, 0:03:51.760 --> 0:03:56.640 Eric Young is uh my chosen profession name. I have 0:03:57.080 --> 0:04:00.680 a different real name, and UH decided to when I 0:04:00.720 --> 0:04:03.160 was seventeen because no one likes their real name when 0:04:03.160 --> 0:04:07.080 they're seventeen, and Eric Young could be the worst fake 0:04:07.200 --> 0:04:11.200 name of all time. You chose one real name for another, 0:04:11.480 --> 0:04:14.480 I guess fake generic real name. So Eric Young, that's 0:04:14.520 --> 0:04:16.920 what we'll go with for now. We'll talk about it 0:04:16.960 --> 0:04:20.479 tomorrow with all that. But we won't do that today. 0:04:20.560 --> 0:04:23.520 Not No, not today, because we've already wasted enough time. 0:04:23.560 --> 0:04:25.520 We started late. As I mentioned what we want to 0:04:25.560 --> 0:04:28.440 do today, I brought Nick in studio, not only because 0:04:28.440 --> 0:04:30.080 Greg Sussman is not around. I've been wanting to get 0:04:30.120 --> 0:04:32.400 him in studio for a while now. Actually, we want 0:04:32.400 --> 0:04:35.160 to talk about players who he is mostly in on 0:04:35.200 --> 0:04:37.840 this year, players that he has multiple shares of. I'm 0:04:37.880 --> 0:04:39.280 gonna do what I do best. I'm gonna play a 0:04:39.320 --> 0:04:41.520 little devil's advocate, so we'll talk about the upside of 0:04:41.520 --> 0:04:44.120 these players. Will also talk about the downside of players, 0:04:44.120 --> 0:04:47.840 because I don't know that people talk about the downside enough. 0:04:47.920 --> 0:04:49.880 We kind of sprinkle it in, But I think that 0:04:49.960 --> 0:04:52.440 this is something that we also have to talk about. 0:04:52.720 --> 0:04:54.600 Uh not everyone says upside. We have to talk about 0:04:54.600 --> 0:04:56.599 the downside of these players as well. We'll do that 0:04:56.680 --> 0:04:58.600 for the rest of this first hour. In the second hour, 0:04:58.880 --> 0:05:00.920 we will have the Action hour, where we will get 0:05:00.960 --> 0:05:04.160 some of uh Nick's favorite NFL future bets. We will 0:05:04.200 --> 0:05:06.440 also be joined by Virginia Zakas probably should have told 0:05:06.440 --> 0:05:09.719 the guys downstairs. We'll be joined by Virginia Zakas later 0:05:09.760 --> 0:05:11.960 on an hour two to get the latest on some 0:05:12.279 --> 0:05:16.400 NFL injuries. Let's start with some of your favorite players here, Nick, 0:05:16.680 --> 0:05:18.800 I think that we kind of package all of these 0:05:18.839 --> 0:05:21.080 Green Bay packers in together, because I'm looking down at 0:05:21.120 --> 0:05:24.960 this list. We have three packers, Devantae Adams, Aaron Jones, 0:05:25.200 --> 0:05:28.480 and Mark haz Valdis Scanling. Let's target start at the top. 0:05:29.080 --> 0:05:31.640 I am someone who is also in on Davanta Adams. 0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:33.320 I've talked to e Y into moving him up his 0:05:33.400 --> 0:05:36.080 rankings as well. I have him as my wide receiver 0:05:36.160 --> 0:05:39.160 one overall, not a wide receiver one of him as 0:05:39.200 --> 0:05:41.840 the wide receiver one. I know that DeAndre Hopkins is 0:05:41.880 --> 0:05:43.640 awesome pound for pound, might be the best talent in 0:05:43.680 --> 0:05:47.480 the NFL, But when I look at the package of 0:05:47.600 --> 0:05:51.520 what Devanta Adams has to offer, between his red zone usage, 0:05:51.640 --> 0:05:53.880 the amount of touchdowns he scored over the past three seasons, 0:05:53.920 --> 0:05:56.400 he's also led the NFL and red zone targets over 0:05:56.440 --> 0:05:58.560 the past three seasons. The fact that he has one 0:05:58.560 --> 0:06:00.640 of the greatest quarterbacks of all time throwing him the 0:06:00.640 --> 0:06:03.000 football and he was basically throwing it on one leg 0:06:03.080 --> 0:06:06.440 last year. All of those things together kind of culminating 0:06:06.760 --> 0:06:10.120 have Davantae Adams as my wide receiver one. So probably 0:06:10.120 --> 0:06:12.039 in a similar camp as you. Yeah, you know what, 0:06:12.120 --> 0:06:14.360 I didn't even realize that three Green Bay Packers on 0:06:14.400 --> 0:06:16.560 this list. It's perfectly fine. It's a great offense to 0:06:16.680 --> 0:06:18.480 be a part of. Yeah, I think when you're going 0:06:18.480 --> 0:06:20.599 with tiebreakers, look at the quarterback, look at the offense 0:06:20.640 --> 0:06:22.320 that they're on. Who's going to score the most points? 0:06:22.360 --> 0:06:25.520 And when you look at this Green Bay team, um, 0:06:25.520 --> 0:06:27.719 by all intents and purposes, Aaron Rodgers had a bit 0:06:27.720 --> 0:06:29.560 of a down year. Right, you look at the the 0:06:29.720 --> 0:06:32.720 end of the season results twenty five touchdowns, two interceptions, 0:06:32.800 --> 0:06:35.920 great statistics, but he is a quarterback built to score 0:06:35.920 --> 0:06:38.760 at thirty five to forty touchdowns. Dante Adams, like you said, 0:06:38.760 --> 0:06:41.200 has been you know, top five, top three in terms 0:06:41.240 --> 0:06:43.560 of red zone looks year in and year out. Now, 0:06:44.279 --> 0:06:47.479 volatility is something that comes along with wide receiver touchdowns. Right, 0:06:47.520 --> 0:06:50.000 It's very hard to predict, but absolutely when you're in 0:06:50.240 --> 0:06:52.599 uh AN offense like this with Aaron Rodgers, who is 0:06:52.920 --> 0:06:55.000 you know, if you owned him last year, you were 0:06:55.520 --> 0:06:58.480 obviously not disappointed. He was so consistent week over week. 0:06:59.040 --> 0:07:01.039 What the crazy part is he was receiving you know, 0:07:01.120 --> 0:07:03.480 ten twelve, fifteen targets a game, and Aaron Rodgers kept 0:07:03.520 --> 0:07:05.280 publicly coming out and saying, we need to get him 0:07:05.279 --> 0:07:07.240 the ball more. We need to get him the ball more. So, 0:07:07.279 --> 0:07:10.600 It's it's one of those fuel things along with the statistics. 0:07:10.600 --> 0:07:12.240 And I have him right now on my big board 0:07:12.240 --> 0:07:13.960 as one oh five overall. As soon as those top 0:07:14.000 --> 0:07:15.880 four guys, the top four running backs are off the board, 0:07:16.040 --> 0:07:18.680 it's it's Davante Adams there, and I just think there's 0:07:18.680 --> 0:07:20.480 no risk there when you look at the beginning of 0:07:20.480 --> 0:07:22.360 your drafts, rounds one to three, four. You want to 0:07:22.360 --> 0:07:24.640 minimize risks, right, you want to make sure that seventy 0:07:25.000 --> 0:07:27.120 of your fantasy points that are gonna be scored week 0:07:27.160 --> 0:07:29.360 over week over week are actually being scored. And Davante 0:07:29.360 --> 0:07:31.520 Adams a guy you can trust because you know, looking 0:07:31.520 --> 0:07:33.920 at Aaron Rodgers that he's good for a minimum thirty 0:07:33.920 --> 0:07:36.680 touchdowns and Davante Adams head thirteen last year. Right, so 0:07:36.880 --> 0:07:39.160 you take the twenty five that Aaron Rodgers three, that's 0:07:39.920 --> 0:07:42.200 he's gonna be looking at Davant Dams every time that 0:07:42.240 --> 0:07:45.160 they're down there. And Rogers had a career low like 0:07:45.200 --> 0:07:49.440 touchdown rate in terms of point two touchdown rate last year. 0:07:49.440 --> 0:07:51.119 He hasn't touched that since I think maybe his rookie 0:07:51.160 --> 0:07:52.880 year or something. You might have the fact it was 0:07:52.920 --> 0:07:54.720 by far the lowest of his career. Okay, yeah, so 0:07:54.800 --> 0:07:56.680 you you know, you think that jumps back up to 0:07:56.720 --> 0:07:59.040 a career average maybe around six percent, six point five percent. 0:07:59.080 --> 0:08:00.840 That would have brought his touch down total from twenty 0:08:00.880 --> 0:08:03.120 five to thirty seven touchdown passes last year. And who 0:08:03.160 --> 0:08:06.120 is going to benefit from that? Like I think, you know, 0:08:06.240 --> 0:08:09.400 it's very hard to predict record breaking seasons coming from 0:08:09.440 --> 0:08:11.880 receivers because they're always outliers. But I really think we're 0:08:11.920 --> 0:08:14.440 going to see something like d eight targets, hundred and 0:08:14.440 --> 0:08:18.240 thirty receptions, and seventeen to eighteen receiving touchdowns from Davante Adams. 0:08:18.240 --> 0:08:20.480 So right after those big four running backs are off 0:08:20.480 --> 0:08:23.920 the board, Davante Adams is here to, you know, establish 0:08:24.040 --> 0:08:26.440 himself as the wide receiver, one the takes the t 0:08:26.680 --> 0:08:29.520 A E K s. That's what we like here on 0:08:29.560 --> 0:08:31.840 the BFS from Nick throwing some hot takes out there. 0:08:31.960 --> 0:08:34.040 I mentioned I'm gonna play some devil's advocate. It's really 0:08:34.040 --> 0:08:36.320 hard because I love Davantae Adams, but I'm gonna throw 0:08:36.360 --> 0:08:39.480 this your way. E y, what if anything can be 0:08:39.520 --> 0:08:42.440 the downside to Davante Adams. I'll throw a few things 0:08:42.440 --> 0:08:43.800 your way and you let me know what you think. 0:08:44.240 --> 0:08:46.240 Aaron Rodgers has been in and out of the line 0:08:46.280 --> 0:08:47.839 up the past couple of years. He played last year 0:08:47.840 --> 0:08:50.160 basically on one leg, but he's missed time due to 0:08:50.160 --> 0:08:51.520 like collar bone. I feel like he might have had 0:08:51.520 --> 0:08:54.240 a concussion at some point because he does take off 0:08:54.280 --> 0:08:56.640 and run a little bit and he's prone to injuries. 0:08:56.679 --> 0:08:59.200 I'll throw that out there. Plus another name on this 0:08:59.240 --> 0:09:02.440 list that will get to Marquez, Velda Scantling in Geronimo Allison. 0:09:02.720 --> 0:09:05.480 Everybody's hyping these two wide receivers up now. If they 0:09:05.520 --> 0:09:08.440 do more in the past game, that could potentially take 0:09:08.440 --> 0:09:11.680 away from Davantae Adams. Now I love Davante Adams, but 0:09:11.880 --> 0:09:15.439 that is me playing Devil's advocate, preaching the downside. Y 0:09:15.520 --> 0:09:19.040 are any of those things legitimate to you as reasons 0:09:19.040 --> 0:09:21.680 why you would pass on Davante Adams. Yeah, I don't 0:09:21.679 --> 0:09:23.800 think downside. Like you said you had talked me into him. 0:09:23.800 --> 0:09:26.040 I moved up piece of my wide receiver three, just 0:09:26.120 --> 0:09:31.160 behind Hopkins and Julio. So Adams is a student. And 0:09:31.200 --> 0:09:34.280 I remember reading a thing saying, uh that Aaron Rodgers 0:09:34.320 --> 0:09:37.280 said that he watched a bunch of film back and 0:09:37.320 --> 0:09:39.520 said there was a bunch of times where Davanta Adams 0:09:39.559 --> 0:09:41.640 was completely open and he didn't throw them the ball. 0:09:42.200 --> 0:09:45.880 Um Having Allison there, uh in the slot and Scantling 0:09:45.880 --> 0:09:50.280 on the outside in the end, I think only helps Adams. 0:09:50.320 --> 0:09:53.520 Adams is going to be the undisputed one, and let's 0:09:53.520 --> 0:09:56.960 not forget like, Okay, Yes, Aaron Rodgers has been hurt before. 0:09:57.320 --> 0:10:00.319 Football is a full contact sport. Every year, I feel 0:10:00.360 --> 0:10:03.800 like the NFL works on having the quarterbacks less and 0:10:03.920 --> 0:10:06.679 less hit and less and less injured, because they are 0:10:06.720 --> 0:10:10.280 the stars of of what makes an offense go. He 0:10:10.480 --> 0:10:14.760 was an unbelievable quarterback on one leg last year. Uh. 0:10:14.960 --> 0:10:17.720 Having a new coach in a new system, I believe 0:10:17.720 --> 0:10:20.800 will only benefit him. And he's going to make it 0:10:20.840 --> 0:10:23.640 a point to be a better player, to show everyone 0:10:23.679 --> 0:10:25.679 that he was right in McCarthy was wrong as a 0:10:25.720 --> 0:10:28.880 chip on his shoulder. UM. I always leaned towards the 0:10:28.920 --> 0:10:32.120 mental side of things like that. Like these players, all 0:10:32.160 --> 0:10:34.960 of them are freak athletes, all of them are good athletes, 0:10:35.000 --> 0:10:37.880 all of them are great football players. But what separates 0:10:38.200 --> 0:10:42.439 people is sometimes motivation and mental stimulus and and Aaron 0:10:42.480 --> 0:10:45.160 Rodgen Aaron Rodgers has a check mark and all of 0:10:45.160 --> 0:10:48.840 those things. Vonde Adams is a stud and I'm not 0:10:48.840 --> 0:10:50.840 going away from him. Yeah. I mean, even going back 0:10:50.880 --> 0:10:52.959 to Torty Nelson as the wide receiver one of this 0:10:53.000 --> 0:10:55.640 Packers offense, we saw massive seasons out of Torty Nelson 0:10:55.679 --> 0:10:57.600 as well. I mean, this is a legitimate thing that 0:10:57.640 --> 0:10:59.400 you can hang your hat on. Is the number one 0:10:59.400 --> 0:11:02.160 wide receiver the Packers offense. If you have Aaron Rodgers 0:11:02.200 --> 0:11:05.320 trust you are going to put up monster fantasy numbers. 0:11:05.320 --> 0:11:08.240 So play a little bit of Devil's advocate there. There 0:11:08.360 --> 0:11:10.679 is downside to any player, and I will mention that 0:11:10.880 --> 0:11:13.840 Davanta Adams has had concussion issues. E y. I remember 0:11:13.880 --> 0:11:16.520 a couple of years ago when Davanta Adams got absolutely 0:11:16.520 --> 0:11:18.719 crushed on Thursday Night Football on that and that hit 0:11:18.760 --> 0:11:20.840 over the middle. I came in the next day and 0:11:20.840 --> 0:11:22.679 I was throwing things at you. You were throwing things 0:11:22.720 --> 0:11:24.880 at me, and we were getting crazy about that. I mean, 0:11:24.960 --> 0:11:27.760 you can't really forget it. Davanta Adams has had concussion issues. 0:11:27.800 --> 0:11:29.480 He's taken some big hits. You have to take that 0:11:29.520 --> 0:11:32.840 into consideration. Every player has a downside in the NFL. 0:11:32.880 --> 0:11:35.160 I mean, it's a very violent sport. We realized that. 0:11:35.520 --> 0:11:37.920 But if he and Aaron Rodgers stay healthy, even in 0:11:37.960 --> 0:11:40.760 a new Matt La floor offense, I don't really see 0:11:40.800 --> 0:11:42.760 how it can fail. So I am very excited about 0:11:42.840 --> 0:11:45.760 Davanta Adams. He is my wide receiver. One I've mentioned 0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:49.760 mvs and I've mentioned Geronimo Allison. To me, this is 0:11:49.800 --> 0:11:53.120 one of the harder ones to pick apart here because 0:11:53.360 --> 0:11:55.920 I want to be excited for both players. But as 0:11:56.000 --> 0:11:58.200 much as I like Davanta Adams, there's only one football. 0:11:58.200 --> 0:12:00.400 There's only so many targets to go around. For me, 0:12:00.400 --> 0:12:03.760 when I'm looking at this, it's MVS on the outside. 0:12:03.760 --> 0:12:06.079 Is Jeronimo Allison in the slot? MVS to me is 0:12:06.120 --> 0:12:09.440 a freak athlete. This guy is six ft four four 0:12:09.480 --> 0:12:11.560 point three seven forty yard dash that tested in the 0:12:11.679 --> 0:12:15.480 nineties six percentile according to Player Profiler. The speed score 0:12:15.520 --> 0:12:18.040 is legitimate. The only thing that I'll say is I 0:12:18.040 --> 0:12:21.560 think Jeronimo Allison has more of Aaron Rodgers. Trust. I 0:12:21.559 --> 0:12:23.360 think we saw that a little bit last year where 0:12:23.679 --> 0:12:26.720 there was a stretch that MVS was fantasy relevant. He 0:12:26.760 --> 0:12:29.360 was Fantasy viable, but then he kind of faded and 0:12:29.400 --> 0:12:32.000 it seemed like Aaron Rodgers wasn't really targeting him as 0:12:32.080 --> 0:12:34.960 much in the offense. And then on the other side, 0:12:34.960 --> 0:12:37.160 for Jeronomo Allison, he's playing in the slot now, and 0:12:37.200 --> 0:12:40.000 we've seen slot receivers for fantasy. Nick, I mean, that's 0:12:40.000 --> 0:12:42.200 just been gold. So I'll throw it your away. You 0:12:42.200 --> 0:12:44.559 have MVS on this list, you're very excited about him. 0:12:44.600 --> 0:12:46.760 I want to be excited about him, but it's like 0:12:46.920 --> 0:12:50.680 the freak athlete on the outside versus the slot receiver 0:12:50.760 --> 0:12:53.280 who might have Aaron Rodgers trust. And that's why I 0:12:53.400 --> 0:12:54.800 keep going back and forth on these two. What do 0:12:54.840 --> 0:12:57.000 you have on MVS? Yeah, I'm I'm a huge fan 0:12:57.040 --> 0:12:58.480 of MBS and for a lot of the reasons that 0:12:58.480 --> 0:13:00.720 you pointed out, I love the Athletic Pro file and 0:13:00.840 --> 0:13:04.160 I don't I try not to read into beat reporters 0:13:04.160 --> 0:13:05.679 and a lot of the hype that coming out of 0:13:05.679 --> 0:13:08.280 training camp when you start hearing it over and over 0:13:08.360 --> 0:13:10.679 and over again from the quarterback, from the coach, from 0:13:10.720 --> 0:13:13.880 the GM, from Beat reporters, MVS is the guy. MVS 0:13:13.960 --> 0:13:16.240 is the number two, you know, in a in a 0:13:16.280 --> 0:13:19.079 physical standpoint like him being the number two means he'll 0:13:19.120 --> 0:13:22.160 be on the field for probably ten to more snaps 0:13:22.200 --> 0:13:24.679 than John Millison. Him being outside as opposed to the 0:13:24.720 --> 0:13:26.720 slot means that his depth of target is also going 0:13:26.760 --> 0:13:29.040 to be about double the range of Joonal Millison's is. 0:13:29.640 --> 0:13:31.440 And like you said, like he came on the field 0:13:31.920 --> 0:13:34.480 and once John John Mileson was banged up last year, 0:13:34.520 --> 0:13:37.320 which is a concern because John Mollison's game logs so 0:13:37.400 --> 0:13:39.640 far three years, he's he's pretty old. People who don't 0:13:39.640 --> 0:13:40.880 know this, this this is a fourth year coming into the 0:13:41.080 --> 0:13:44.440 into the league. Seven games, eleven games, five games. The 0:13:44.440 --> 0:13:47.120 guy has not shown durability. And Aaron Rodgers, you know, 0:13:47.160 --> 0:13:49.280 he might trust him, you look at his statistics from 0:13:49.360 --> 0:13:51.640 last year, but do you think he's gonna try to 0:13:51.640 --> 0:13:53.920 build chemistry with someone that he doesn't even trust staying 0:13:53.920 --> 0:13:56.280 on the field. So when I look at MBS, came in, 0:13:56.480 --> 0:13:58.520 had four games right off the rip where they were 0:13:58.600 --> 0:14:01.520 very fantasy relevant, right, and then twenty four the right 0:14:01.520 --> 0:14:04.000 he hit that rookie wall. And there were some reports 0:14:04.000 --> 0:14:05.959 that there was a riff there between MVS and Aaron 0:14:06.040 --> 0:14:08.680 Rodgers because MBS kept running the routes that Mike McCarthy 0:14:08.760 --> 0:14:11.680 was telling him to run. And yeah, exactly. I don't 0:14:11.679 --> 0:14:13.439 know how much truth there is to it, but clearly 0:14:13.480 --> 0:14:16.000 that's been that's been fixed, and Aaron Rodgers and MBS 0:14:16.040 --> 0:14:18.240 have been, um, you know, fixing up their chemistry a 0:14:18.280 --> 0:14:20.240 little bit. And when I look at who's more equipped 0:14:20.240 --> 0:14:22.680 to play outside, it's MBS by a mile, because he's 0:14:22.680 --> 0:14:24.600 a great athlete, as you pointed out four three seven, 0:14:24.640 --> 0:14:27.080 and he's got that. He's huge. He's big, four long, 0:14:27.080 --> 0:14:29.200 six four two oh five, so he's got the legitimate speed. 0:14:29.200 --> 0:14:31.480 And Aaron Rodgers is someone who's not afraid to throw 0:14:31.520 --> 0:14:34.920 the ball deep. And Donalo Allison. It's like, you know, 0:14:34.960 --> 0:14:36.560 when guys get to the end of their career, they're 0:14:36.640 --> 0:14:38.640 less athletic, so you kind of have to put them 0:14:38.640 --> 0:14:41.000 in the slot because it's naturally gonna give you more separation. 0:14:41.040 --> 0:14:42.400 You don't actually have to beat cornerbacks. And I think 0:14:42.440 --> 0:14:44.120 that's what you're seeing from Allison. I know we saw 0:14:44.160 --> 0:14:45.720 a couple of years out of Randall Cob there, but 0:14:45.720 --> 0:14:48.200 it didn't seem like there was any wide receiver two 0:14:48.240 --> 0:14:50.840 that was viable to catch basses. So I think if 0:14:50.880 --> 0:14:52.640 you're gonna give Aaron Rodgers, who's one of the most 0:14:52.720 --> 0:14:56.320 accurate outside quarterbacks outside of the numbers, the free room 0:14:56.400 --> 0:14:58.640 to choose his wide receivers, you know it's gonna be 0:14:58.720 --> 0:15:00.840 MBS over Allison in my opinion. All Right, we come back, 0:15:00.840 --> 0:15:03.160 We'll get e y s thoughts on Alison versus MBS. 0:15:03.200 --> 0:15:06.000 It's the BFFs. Frank Nick and e Y will be 0:15:06.080 --> 0:15:09.840 right back right after this.

No Greg Sussman, he's 0:15:54.200 --> 0:15:58.560 out celebrating another batchelor party. Most busy man in the world. 0:15:58.640 --> 0:16:06.240 Pretty much love the music too, by the way, that's great. Yeah, yeah, 0:16:06.280 --> 0:16:07.960 I hear you. I hear you making the music ladder 0:16:07.960 --> 0:16:09.640 downstairs trying to get some dance moves out of me. 0:16:09.840 --> 0:16:11.920 I am joined by Nick Ercolano right next to me. 0:16:11.920 --> 0:16:14.920 Fall him on Twitter at Nick Underscore b d g E. 0:16:15.480 --> 0:16:18.440 Big Dog's Gotta Eat. Someone in the chat also asked 0:16:18.560 --> 0:16:22.000 not to someone Lance Davis, a faithful viewer of the show. 0:16:22.480 --> 0:16:24.320 He says, uh, you must be a fan of Ben 0:16:24.400 --> 0:16:29.359 Jarvis Greene ELS's b j G. It's close as absolutely 0:16:29.560 --> 0:16:31.880 zero percent of the reason why the name would be 0:16:31.880 --> 0:16:33.520 b d G E. I was a fan of Ben 0:16:33.600 --> 0:16:37.040 Jarvis green Ellis at the time. Um horrible dynasty pick 0:16:37.080 --> 0:16:38.600 if if you were in the game at that point, 0:16:38.840 --> 0:16:41.480 but he was exciting and uh, I'd like to think 0:16:41.480 --> 0:16:44.080 a lot of the passion about my brand comes from 0:16:44.160 --> 0:16:46.440 Ben Jarvis green Ellis, So shout out to wherever. What 0:16:46.480 --> 0:16:48.440 do you think he's doing right now in life? Ben 0:16:48.520 --> 0:16:52.000 Jarvis green Ellish, Man, I couldn't, man. I hope he's 0:16:52.040 --> 0:16:54.040 all right. I just hope everything's going right for him. 0:16:54.520 --> 0:16:57.240 I don't know, man, I mean former Patriots running backs. 0:16:57.640 --> 0:16:59.360 It seems like they let you go so early on 0:16:59.400 --> 0:17:01.040 in your career and you lasted on with the Bengals 0:17:01.080 --> 0:17:03.000 for a little bit. If you love touchdowns, and you 0:17:03.040 --> 0:17:05.639 probably love Ben Jarvis green Ellis, Um, I couldn't tell 0:17:05.640 --> 0:17:06.960 you what he's doing. I hope he's alright. THO. Shout 0:17:06.960 --> 0:17:09.600 out to Ben Jarvis greene Ellis. We're also joined by 0:17:09.760 --> 0:17:13.160 e Y, the Eric Young and Ey I mentioned before 0:17:13.160 --> 0:17:14.440 the break, I wanted to throw this here away. We 0:17:14.520 --> 0:17:16.480 kind of talked about this during the Packers preview. It's 0:17:16.480 --> 0:17:19.800 like Geronimo Allison versus NVS. You heard Nick spitting some 0:17:19.840 --> 0:17:24.040 hot fire over there regarding mvs. Where do you land 0:17:24.080 --> 0:17:26.480 on this? And have you have you been flip flopping? 0:17:26.520 --> 0:17:28.200 Have you? Have you just I believe you were on 0:17:28.240 --> 0:17:30.639 Allison before. I could be wrong about that. Where do 0:17:30.640 --> 0:17:34.680 you stand now? I had them back to back and 0:17:34.680 --> 0:17:37.680 and actually Allison was ahead, But now I've got Scantling 0:17:38.000 --> 0:17:41.920 ahead of him and Allison about three picks behind him. Um, 0:17:41.960 --> 0:17:43.560 I think the only thing that would sway me is 0:17:43.600 --> 0:17:46.320 maybe in a PPR. But the hard thing that the 0:17:46.359 --> 0:17:49.040 thing is this is a different coaching staff, a different 0:17:49.280 --> 0:17:51.600 different offense is going to be run. We don't know 0:17:52.080 --> 0:17:54.520 how many times there's going to be three wide receivers 0:17:54.560 --> 0:17:58.720 on the field. Um, Like Nick was saying, Scandling is 0:17:58.880 --> 0:18:00.960 being said to be the number or two when their 0:18:01.000 --> 0:18:03.000 offense is on the field. He's going to be on 0:18:03.040 --> 0:18:05.440 the field and Allison will come in and out as 0:18:05.440 --> 0:18:08.240 there's as there's three wide receivers set. So I think 0:18:08.280 --> 0:18:10.640 that they will probably alternate some. That's not a hard 0:18:10.680 --> 0:18:13.000 and fast rule, but I think Scaling is going to 0:18:13.040 --> 0:18:15.920 have more opportunity. I think is his depth of target 0:18:15.960 --> 0:18:18.840 will be farther, and I think you'll probably score more touchdowns. 0:18:18.880 --> 0:18:22.200 So I mean, just to me, the opportunity they're playing 0:18:22.200 --> 0:18:25.080 with Rogers. I got scaling ahead of him. But Allison 0:18:25.160 --> 0:18:26.680 is a player that I really like. I think he's 0:18:26.680 --> 0:18:28.919 gonna catch a ton of balls this year. All Right, 0:18:28.960 --> 0:18:32.600 screw it, we're all on MVS over Geronimo Allison. Let's 0:18:32.600 --> 0:18:34.760 go with it. The the athletic freak on the outside 0:18:34.800 --> 0:18:37.879 six ft four four three seven forty. You've talked me 0:18:37.920 --> 0:18:40.359 into it. The reason why I ask you one of 0:18:40.440 --> 0:18:42.080 the other is because what I've seen in a lot 0:18:42.119 --> 0:18:44.080 of drafts, and you probably have as well. As soon 0:18:44.080 --> 0:18:46.200 as someone takes one of those Packers receivers, the other 0:18:46.240 --> 0:18:48.560 one goes off the board immediately, it's like it's almost 0:18:48.560 --> 0:18:50.520 a light bulb in someone's head that said, oh crap, 0:18:50.520 --> 0:18:52.320 the Packers receivers. I just saw one of them. Go 0:18:52.480 --> 0:18:54.880 let me grab the other one. So it's it's basically 0:18:54.920 --> 0:18:57.399 impossible to get both of them unless you're on the 0:18:57.440 --> 0:18:59.520 turn like the seven eight turn or like eight nine 0:18:59.520 --> 0:19:03.640 turn for example. Yeah. I actually stacked Davante Adams with 0:19:04.160 --> 0:19:06.960 MVS in are you in the scott Fish Bowl. Yes, 0:19:07.080 --> 0:19:09.640 I took Davanta Adams and pick eleven. I got him. Yeah, 0:19:09.800 --> 0:19:11.320
