34
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: you're not a hockey fan, so that's kind of But

35
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,639
Speaker 1: I'm from Connecticut and I like to be unique here.

36
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,639
Speaker 1: I figure the only person in the state of California

37
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,680
Speaker 1: that has this hat is me that had specifically. Yeah,

38
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 1: but come to my house. I'll show you a bunch

39
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:31,639
Speaker 1: of Whalers hats. I mean, it's my team and you're

40
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:34,040
Speaker 1: wearing my team's at that you don't root for well,

41
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 1: when they were in Connecticut and I lived in Connecticut,

42
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 1: if there was a hockey team that I would follow,

43
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:40,679
Speaker 1: it would be the Whalers. I'm not a huge hockey fan,

44
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 1: but it's I'm just giving my native state a little love. Here, Smith,

45
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,400

Speaker 1: not getting anything for this. I mean, I like the hat.

50
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,680
Speaker 1: I just like the hat. That's all, you know, all right,

51
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,080
Speaker 1: But it's not Yankees or cowboys, so I figured, do

52
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 1: you'd appreciate you? But it's blue. It's cowboy, but I

53
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 1: like blue. You were Everything is cowboy blue or Yankee

54
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 1: pin stripe with you, all right, We'll see every day

55
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,800
Speaker 1: everything it is. That's because the Mets have been horrible

56
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 1: and we're not gonna Yeah, somebody's gonna owe somebody lunch.

57
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 1: Ye bring that up. Yeah, let's talk about being scared.

58
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 1: It's not Halloween. Let's talk about being scared. All the

59
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,640
Speaker 1: big news the last few days coming out of training camps.

60
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,359
Speaker 1: Let's let's see how scared you are fantasy wise when

61
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,639
Speaker 1: it comes to certain topics, And the number one thing

62
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 1: is Maurice Jones. Drew's hold out right right now, it

63
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 1: doesn't look like he's gonna get a new deal. Shot

64
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 1: Con says, well, if I redo a deal for him,

65
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell SHOTTTT dot dot com, shot com. I

66
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 1: just think of the mustache yea when I shot com.

67
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 1: But proving to be a first time owner, Jitter is saying, well,

68
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 1: if I do it for m j D, I gotta

69
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 1: do it for everybody. No, no, no, dude, you do

70
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 1: it for m j D. He's your best player. But

71
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: he says Maurice Jones, who's not getting a contract. M

72
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,320
Speaker 1: j D says, I'm not coming without a new contract.

73
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 1: This will eventually play out. He will sell line, he'll

74
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 1: get paid well coming to camp. There's the guys. Just

75
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 1: don't guys, just don't hold out like that anymore. No, no, no,

76
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 1: Maybe he ends his hold out, but I don't know

77
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 1: if they're gonna give them any more money. Well, you know,

78
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 1: they may do one of those deals like they did,

79
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 1: like the Jets did with vas Or the Titans did

80
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 1: with Chris Johnson what happens out. But that's the thing.

81
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,279
Speaker 1: Here's m j D who is a first round pick

82
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 1: and fantasy but as his hold out progresses, there gets

83
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 1: to be a point where I'm too afraid to draft

84
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:28,040
Speaker 1: him because I'm gonna have to take him in the

85
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 1: first round because that's that's his talent, that's where he's

86
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:32,840
Speaker 1: gonna go. But am I gonna take m j D

87
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 1: in the first round if he's holding out because I

88
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,480
Speaker 1: know he's gonna come in late. And what happens to

89
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:38,359
Speaker 1: running backs all the time is the same thing. They

90
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,799
Speaker 1: come in and they rush to get back into shape.

91
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 1: They have nagging hamstring and or achilles and and groin injuries,

92
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 1: good groin injuries the entire season, and they have a

93
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 1: down year. I'd be too scared to draft. You know.

94
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:54,720
Speaker 1: It's funny though, and I agree with you, is that

95
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:58,440
Speaker 1: you know serious XM had their celebrity fantasy football draft

96
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks back, and Joan Drew was a

97
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 1: part of that draft, and he had the number one

98
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 1: overall pick, and guess what we took. We're gonna take himself.

99
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 1: Took himself. He can't do you think that M j

100
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:11,799
Speaker 1: D will have less of a holdout just in case,

101
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 1: because he doesn't want to get hurt and have his

102
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 1: first pick in the draft be a bust, even though

103
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,479
Speaker 1: it's himself. Do you understand that. So he's got millions

104
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 1: and millions of dollars on the table, but in his

105
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 1: fantasy league because the number one overall, he'll come back

106
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 1: to camp in order to stay healthy and avoid him

107
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 1: being a bust for his fantasy team. I love fantasy football.

108
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 1: I love when players play fantasy football. It's crazy. I

109
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 1: think he would have sent a message if he didn't

110
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:49,280
Speaker 1: draft himself first overall pick Arian Foster. Why I'm holding out.

111
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 1: I'm not coming to without a new deal. Man, No,

112
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 1: I agree with you, though. We we've seen this time

113
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,760
Speaker 1: and time again, whether it's Chris Johnson last year, Larry

114
00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 1: Johnson in the past, Stephen Jackson in the past. I

115
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 1: think the league running back prominent running back that's held

116
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:06,159
Speaker 1: out and actually didn't see his numbers drop or suffer

117
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:11,600
Speaker 1: an injury was Emmett Smith. That's so you have to

118
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 1: be a little bit concerned about this. And the longer

119
00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,840
Speaker 1: it holds out, the longer that he holds out, the

120
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,039
Speaker 1: fall the faster. His ADP is gonna fall. Right now,

121
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 1: He's got a first round a DP on NFL dot Com.

122
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,600
Speaker 1: If he continues to hold out, two things are gonna happen.

123
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 1: You're gonna see number one, his ADP will drop probably

124
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 1: in around two. I don't think it will drop in

125
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,920
Speaker 1: around three. Uh. And the second thing that's gonna happen

126
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,839
Speaker 1: is that Richard Jennings, who's coming off of a knee

127
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,880
Speaker 1: injury last year, is gonna start rising because he would

128
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:42,479
Speaker 1: be the guy if Jones Drew's holdout is extremely extended. Yeah,

129
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,480
Speaker 1: I think you get to the point right now. We

130
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 1: did our our NFL Experts League draft. We did a

131
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 1: mock draft a couple of weeks ago, and Jones Drew

132
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 1: didn't go in the first round then. And this was

133
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,560
Speaker 1: before anything was happening, anything was hinky with him, and

134
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 1: we knew he might hold out here Hanky hanky from

135
00:06:57,880 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 1: the Fugitive. You remember when he kept saying hinky, and

136
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 1: Tommie Jones says, don't use words around you don't know

137
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:03,920
Speaker 1: what they mean. I'm taking the stair. Yeah, I don't

138
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 1: use words around me that I don't know what they mean.

139
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 1: He says, he says Hanky, But this was back then.

140
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:09,640
Speaker 1: I mean I remember I picked back to back the

141
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:11,320
Speaker 1: end of the first round, beginning of the second round,

142
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 1: and I went Cam Newton, Ryan Matthews. There's a ten

143
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,600
Speaker 1: team league on with Cam Newton Ryan Matthews because it

144
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 1: was Ryan Matthews or m j D. I think Matthews

145
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 1: is on the way up, which we'll get to Ryan

146
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 1: Matthews coming up in a bit on the show obviously,

147
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 1: but mg D is because he's coming off that career

148
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 1: year and he's got the hold out, and you don't know,

149
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 1: I don't know if it comes down to it, even

150
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 1: if he gets into camp soon. If I'm sitting there saying, well,

151
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 1: am I taking m j D or Lashawn mccley, I'm

152
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 1: taking Lashawn McCoy. If I'm taking mj D or Tom Brady,

153
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take Tom Brady. It's like the first round.

154
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 1: There's too much talent out there for me to say, well,

155
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 1: I'll roll the dice with Maurice Jones. Yeah. I think

156
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 1: what's gonna happen Jason is again. The longer he holds out,

157
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 1: you're gonna start seeing people drafting Ryan Matthews ahead of

158
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,440
Speaker 1: him at running back, you're gonna see Chris Johnson draft

159
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,720
Speaker 1: ahead of him. I don't know that you'll see someone

160
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,400
Speaker 1: like a Matt Forte or Trent Richardson drafted out of him,

161
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 1: but potentially, uh, depending on how long this holdout lasts,

162
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 1: you're gonna see m j D start to fall. And

163
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 1: you saw this a little bit last year with Chris Johnson.

164
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:13,880
Speaker 1: People started to get worried and he was falling down

165
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,400
Speaker 1: in drafts. I remember in our NFL Network draft, I

166
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:19,360
Speaker 1: think rich Eison got him at the end of second

167
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:22,120
Speaker 1: round somewhere around there. Uh, And at that point he thought,

168
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 1: oh man, I had a steel And obviously it didn't

169
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 1: turn out that way. But this is a concern. It's

170
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 1: a trend that you have to really factor into the

171
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 1: situation with Maurice Jones Drew. If you're a fantasy owner,

172
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 1: when guys hold out, oftentimes they get hurt or their

173
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:39,559
Speaker 1: production is not as good as it used to be

174
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 1: and what we're used to well, especially at running back,

175
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,960
Speaker 1: if you're a wide receiver, you coming late. Okay, take

176
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,719
Speaker 1: a little while to get into alright, Mike Wells, I'm

177
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 1: not as concerned about I mean, I'm I'm I'm not

178
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,720
Speaker 1: concerned about his conditioning and getting back into it as

179
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 1: much as I am. How upset is he now that

180
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:57,400
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown just got four you two million dollars and

181
00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 1: they wouldn't only give him money, So that's a little

182
00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 1: bit more concerned. But I'm not worried about I'm not

183
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:03,920
Speaker 1: worried about Dwayne Bow. He's gonna come in and be fine.

184
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:06,320
Speaker 1: But running backs is who what happens to? These guys

185
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,319
Speaker 1: come in and because you rush and you never get

186
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,839
Speaker 1: rid of those nagging injuries all season long. You never

187
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:14,200
Speaker 1: need the hamstring whatever, you know, unless you sit games

188
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 1: out like Arrian Foster did, and as great as he

189
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:18,600
Speaker 1: was last year, I mean, you were without your top

190
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 1: pick for over three and a half weeks because he

191
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:24,080
Speaker 1: sat out. I'm I'm looking on your and your rankings

192
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,959
Speaker 1: on NFL dot com right now. Okay, you have Chris

193
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,079
Speaker 1: Johnson number one, number one running back number one. You

194
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:32,199
Speaker 1: have Johnson, and then you have Aryan Foster too. You

195
00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 1: have Leshawn McCoy three, You've got Ray Rice four, and

196
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 1: then Jones Drew five. What's the cliff if Jones Drew's

197
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 1: hold out lasts through say the end of this week,

198
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,080
Speaker 1: you take great Matthews ahead of him. Oh, I taken

199
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 1: him ahead of him regardless, Uh fourteen No, forte, I would.

200
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 1: I would still go more rees jonesre but then you're

201
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 1: in the second round. Now, now you're into the second round,

202
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 1: my first round pick, I'm not gonna He's not gonna

203
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:55,199
Speaker 1: be the first guy I have off the board. What

204
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,440
Speaker 1: about a guy like Darren McFadden. No, I take more

205
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 1: Rees Jones Drew ahead mcfen, Okay, because I know mc

206
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,000
Speaker 1: fann is gonna get hurt to Marco Murray. De Marco Murray,

207
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 1: I would not take. Even though he's on the way up,

208
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:07,160
Speaker 1: it still would be hard to take him ahead of Mories.

209
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,199
Speaker 1: Join a guy who's on my fantasy man crush list,

210
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:12,800
Speaker 1: Trent Richardson. Trent Richardson, I might as time goes on

211
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:14,559
Speaker 1: to seeing how how good he looks, just because I

212
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 1: know he's going to get the carries. Forget the fact

213
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 1: that he's in Cleveland. He's gonna touch the ball three

214
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 1: hund I just keep telling that that number three hundreds

215
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,319
Speaker 1: in my head when I think about Trent Richardson, and

216
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 1: not not that he's fighting alongside Gerard Butler in the

217
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,599
Speaker 1: in the movie The three hundred, But I'm keeping that

218
00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:33,080
Speaker 1: movie in this off season. The dudes jack his Jack.

219
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:34,839
Speaker 1: Did you like The three hundred? I did? That was?

220
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 1: That was a fun movie. It's a real guy movie.

221
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:38,679
Speaker 1: Though it was. It was a very good movie. It's

222
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:40,840
Speaker 1: not It's not a not a not a chick flick

223
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 1: at all. That's a real guy movie. What do you

224
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:45,839
Speaker 1: think I watched those things? It's just a see And

225
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,079
Speaker 1: that's why you're single. If you would be more sensitive,

226
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 1: I'm in Los Angeles. You know how many good looking

227
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 1: women are here. As long as I don't hang out

228
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 1: with Harrison because they all jump on him, I'm good.

229
00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,559
Speaker 1: You You have to find like that actress who is

230
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 1: into fantasy football and then meets you and suddenly it's like,

231
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:06,360
Speaker 1: oh my god, it's love it fort sight. He's so

232
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:08,800
Speaker 1: great and he helps my fantasy team. And then if

233
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 1: you ever left her or you could just kind of

234
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:12,439
Speaker 1: throw it out there saying, you know, you better stay

235
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:13,599
Speaker 1: with me, because if I ever get a hint you

236
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 1: might be leaving, I'm gonna start giving you bad fantasy advice,

237
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 1: and then she would stay with you. I don't know

238
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,960
Speaker 1: that any l A actresses are basing their their decision

239
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 1: on dating a guy. Uh, whether or not he knows

240
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 1: fantasy football or not, I don't know. I think people

241
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:29,320
Speaker 1: have their decisions unless I don't know about that, buddy,

242
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 1: all right, I don't know about that one. Speaking that,

243
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 1: let's continue on with being scared. But Kate Beckinsale or

244
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 1: you know, does the name have to be Kate? Is

245
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:40,840
Speaker 1: that what it is? No? Uh, there's there's there's some mothers,

246
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 1: some other. If you were dating Kate Upton, you could

247
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 1: find out about Sanchez because she dated Sanchez, and then

248
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:47,079
Speaker 1: you could find out what his you know, you know,

249
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 1: what his fantasy value would be. I don't know she

250
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,000
Speaker 1: would tell you, you think so? Yeah, I think she

251
00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:53,679
Speaker 1: would tell me. She was We we talked to her

252
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:55,439
Speaker 1: on the set when we were the Super Bowl, and

253
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:57,600
Speaker 1: she was like real close, starts saying stuff about Sanchez,

254
00:11:57,640 --> 00:11:59,719
Speaker 1: and then we wanted another direction. Really yeah, it was

255
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 1: kind of about that. Now is this before or after

256
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 1: you put your eyes back in your head? Uh? Well,

257
00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:06,679
Speaker 1: as as a few of my Twitter followers pointed out

258
00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 1: to me saying, Jason, so you're sitting next to Kate

259
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: Upton and you wanted to talk about Mark Sanchez, and

260
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:16,000
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, is funny. Then this is pre

261
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,600
Speaker 1: cat Daddy, right, yes, yes, so I was a little lord.

262
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,960
Speaker 1: That is one of the greatest videos ever made. One

263
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,720
Speaker 1: of the greatest ever made. Jason Smith Michael Fabia talking

264
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 1: about other than fantasy football, but still a fantasy. It's

265
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:32,720
Speaker 1: still fantasy. I mean, Kate Upton would go very early

266
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 1: in your Supermodel draft league, probably would go very Would

267
00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:39,760
Speaker 1: you go number one Decker? Ah, yeah, I think she's

268
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,839
Speaker 1: number one. I would still go Brooklyn Decker ahead, Yeah, yeah,

269
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,439
Speaker 1: I go Brooklyn Decker. And I said, it's it's it's close.

Speaker 1: Oh my god? Are you okay? Do you feel like

305
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:27,560
Speaker 1: are you getting on Twitter to tweet Kade up and

306
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:33,320
Speaker 1: to say, hey, but ill you sure? Yeah? Okay, you're

307
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 1: not okay, We're good, Just making sure making sure. Andre

308
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 1: Johnson's hamstring all right. This is a guy who has

309
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 1: been a top five fantasy wide receiver for a long

310
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 1: time now, but he's on the wrong side of thirty.

311
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:45,200
Speaker 1: He's coming off an injury. Here he is early in

312
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 1: training camp, hamstring injury. He scares me to the point

313
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,840
Speaker 1: that where he's gonna go in the draft if he's

314
00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 1: still I don't have him my top five this year.

315
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 1: I haven't I have them outside it. I think there's

316
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 1: more guys that are on the way up. I think

317
00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 1: we've seen the best of Andre Johnson. I think that

318
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 1: this injury. Hamstring is always linger and they don't throw

319
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 1: the football as much as they used to do. This

320
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:06,880
Speaker 1: is not that same team from to three years ago.

321
00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:11,960
Speaker 1: There's other receivers, Percy Harvin. I would rather for him.

322
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 1: They're just gonna throw the football more. They're gonna get

323
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 1: more production out of those guys. I couldn't do it. Listen.

324
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 1: I don't like the fact that he got hurt already.

325
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 1: It's not a serious injury. But what worries me is

326
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 1: the fact that you know, he had the hamstring injury

327
00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:28,680
Speaker 1: last year and he had to have surgery, and now

328
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 1: a few days in the camp he's got a groin.

329
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:36,080
Speaker 1: He's okay, but I mean, it's like core stuff. I wonder.

330
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 1: I wonder if just his work out regiment. I don't know.

331
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 1: I wonder Wade. I wonder what's going I wonder what's

332
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:45,240
Speaker 1: going on with him because these injuries. And I mean,

333
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:47,240
Speaker 1: on the wrong side of thirties thirty one, I don't

334
00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:49,480
Speaker 1: care about that. I'm still the wrong side of thirty still, Listen,

335
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:51,800
Speaker 1: I'm almost on the on the wrong side of forty.

336
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 1: I am on the wrong side. So I'm not so

337
00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:58,440
Speaker 1: worried about the thirty thing. I'm more worried about why

338
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,560
Speaker 1: can't he stay healthy over the last couple of years,

339
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,520
Speaker 1: it's all leg injuries, and and you know, like and Al,

340
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 1: he's got the groin injury. I still think he's a

341
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:09,960
Speaker 1: top five fantasy wide receiver. It would be hard for

342
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 1: me to pass him up if he fell into the

343
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,800
Speaker 1: middle of late the second round, especially if I'm in

344
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 1: a PPR league. But he is clearly a risk, There's

345
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 1: no doubt about that. There's no doubt about it, and

346
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 1: this is gonna be sort of the do or die

347
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,760
Speaker 1: year for Andre Johnson. I think this is also a

348
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,720
Speaker 1: similar situation with Antonio Gates. He's been hurt the last

349
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 1: couple of years, but we know how good he is.

350
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:35,360
Speaker 1: You'll probably still draft him as a top five tight

351
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 1: end this year, right whereas you'll probably draft Andre Johnson

352
00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:42,160
Speaker 1: is the top five wide out. If they don't produce

353
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:44,800
Speaker 1: or they get hurt again this year, that's it. Yeah,

354
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:46,520
Speaker 1: I agree with you that they fall off the face

355
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 1: of the CLI. Then then these guys are are I

356
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 1: would say Gates is a low and one at best,

357
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:55,960
Speaker 1: and Johnson could fall into wide out two category because

358
00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 1: this is going to be the third year if he

359
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:03,200
Speaker 1: does have injury issues. UH In twelve where fantasy owners

360
00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 1: have leaned on him and been burned. Yeah, that's why

361
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,320
Speaker 1: I can't draft him simply because I see I never

362
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:11,840
Speaker 1: say never, say never if he falls to a spot

363
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,800
Speaker 1: like I don't like. That's the thing. He's not gonna fall.

364
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:17,400
Speaker 1: I in a perfect world, we say we say things

365
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 1: like if this guy falls, but he's not. You don't

366
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,520
Speaker 1: have to take everyone. There's people out there that don't

367
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 1: want anything to do with them, just like you. I

368
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:27,639
Speaker 1: know Adam Rank, our buddy from NFL Fantasy Live, is

369
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:29,639
Speaker 1: not a big fan of Andre because he burned him

370
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:31,359
Speaker 1: last year. So if you're in a league with a

371
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 1: bunch of people who have different draft strategies and other

372
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:36,600
Speaker 1: people who don't like Andre Johnson because of these injury issues,

373
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,840
Speaker 1: well he could fall into late second round, maybe even

374
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,359
Speaker 1: the third round, and at that point, you know what,

375
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:45,880
Speaker 1: I'll take a risk. Alright, one other bit of news

376
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:47,560
Speaker 1: to get to here for a second, I'm staying away

377
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:51,000
Speaker 1: from Andre Johnson, fabtist, sticking with him, sticking with him again,

378
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 1: stick to that. He just can't hit us up on

379
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:57,360
Speaker 1: Twitter on a Twitter at how about a fresca He's

380
00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:00,439
Speaker 1: at Michael Underscore Fabiano, get your Twitter quite and we'll

381
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:02,399
Speaker 1: get to a few of them coming up throughout the show. Today,

382
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:03,879
Speaker 1: one have the bit of news to get to. Here,

383
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:07,399
Speaker 1: Braylon Edwards finally has a Homehawks doing. I don't know.

384
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,080
Speaker 1: I think they're trying to get every wide receiver who

385
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:13,640
Speaker 1: is marginally talented and just se so. So here's here's

386
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:17,720
Speaker 1: their group of receivers. Now Steve Largent, right, yeah, so

387
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,640
Speaker 1: you've got you've got their number one receiver, Sidney Rice.

388
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:24,520
Speaker 1: And you want to talk about injury prone he was

389
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 1: last year. Uh and by the way, he's only had

390
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:29,720
Speaker 1: one good year in fantasy and that was when Brett

391
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:34,120
Speaker 1: favss quarterback. You've got Golden Tate, but now Braylon Edwards

392
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,000
Speaker 1: could push him for that second spot in the depth chart.

393
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,600
Speaker 1: You've got Doug Baldwin, who suddenly loses some value because

394
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 1: now you've got Edwards in there because of the target issue.

395
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:44,479
Speaker 1: And then they've got Zach Miller, who would have been

396
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:46,399
Speaker 1: a very good Fantasy tied in last year had he

397
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:50,440
Speaker 1: played in Oakland to remember, and they also have Kellen Winslow.

398
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:55,320
Speaker 1: So listen, I know the people of Seattle don't like

399
00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:58,720
Speaker 1: me because I always stay away from their players. I'm

400
00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:00,880
Speaker 1: not even a fan of more Lynch this year, you're

401
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:02,800
Speaker 1: not even a fan of grunge, and that that's like

402
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:07,800
Speaker 1: the worst thing Grune took away our music, killed our music.

403
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 1: Let's not get into that. That's that's what's got you.

404
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:18,119
Speaker 1: I can't draft a Seahawk. I can't the defense like

405
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 1: a draft. No, I can. Maybe I can maybe draft

406
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 1: Lynches at two. I'm not drafting him as at one.

407
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,600
Speaker 1: But when was the last time a Seahawk receiver was,

408
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 1: you know, really good and phantasy, really gorge Well, Darrel

409
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:31,800
Speaker 1: Jackson had a couple of good years, but that's it. Yeah,

410
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,640
Speaker 1: it's and Baldwin had the most value of anybody going

411
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,159
Speaker 1: in just because it looked like and he was. And

412
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:38,760
Speaker 1: now you be the number one guy there, and now

413
00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:41,879
Speaker 1: you have no idea. I've got to update my player rankings,

414
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:45,200
Speaker 1: uh for sure. And then you've got the whole uh

415
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:49,720
Speaker 1: you know situation there with um with Matt Flynn and

416
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:52,920
Speaker 1: too bars Jackson and they're even Russet Wilson's in there

417
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,760
Speaker 1: getting first team snaps. Yeah you know what, you know

418
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:57,600
Speaker 1: what they say, And if I forget about it, I'm

419
00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:59,360
Speaker 1: not dealing. I'm not dealing with any of these Seattle

420
00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 1: players you see out of the banks. Forget about it.

421
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:05,080
Speaker 1: Max flyn is still gonna win that job just because

422
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:06,640
Speaker 1: they did give a lot of money to sit back

423
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:09,160
Speaker 1: and say, oh you didn't outperform to VRS Jackson. He's

424
00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:10,480
Speaker 1: gonna wind up being the guy, all right, So there

425
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:13,600
Speaker 1: we go. Coming up next on NFL Fantasy Live, we

426
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:17,080
Speaker 1: have some inside information on some quarterback battles and running

427
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:20,440
Speaker 1: back battles, and I believe our buddy NFL Fantasy Live,

428
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:23,200
Speaker 1: Adam Reich is gonna stop by all ranks. That information

429
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:27,160
Speaker 1: is coming up next here on Serious XM Fantasy Sports

430
00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:36,760

00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 1: Locker can't find anybody's a great runner with all sorts

432
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:45,280
Speaker 1: of room ten five touchdown twenty two yards scamper for

433
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:49,960
Speaker 1: Jake Locker. Well, you know that wasn't a Locker Fantasy

434
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:51,520
Speaker 1: owner calling that because it would have been a little

435
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:54,280
Speaker 1: more exciting. It is NFL Fantasy Live here on Serious

436
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 1: XM Series two ten XM eight seven Jason Smith, Michael Fabiano,

437
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:01,879
Speaker 1: and our partner in crime from NFL Fantasy Live, Adam Rank.

438
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:05,359
Speaker 1: Because we get set to debut NFL Fantasy Live again

439
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,680
Speaker 1: August thirteenth and NFL dot Com and then September two,

440
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:11,520
Speaker 1: we hit the network six days a week, an hour

441
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:14,760
Speaker 1: a day only on NFL Network and we're getting ready

442
00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:17,439
Speaker 1: to talk fantasy. And we've been talking fantasy and talk

443
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:20,439
Speaker 1: Fantasy with Adam Rank coming off the Dave Damashek Football

444
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 1: Program podcast, which I believe is available on iTunes. It

445
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 1: is available. And I said, because you never make that clearer,

446
00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:27,359
Speaker 1: I never do. I know I should, I should promote

447
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 1: that more. But thank you Jason Smith, thank you Michael

448
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:31,680
Speaker 1: Fabiana for having me on. I appreciate. I noticed we

449
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:35,040
Speaker 1: had the Warrant down boys. I did see Warrant in

450
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:39,120
Speaker 1: skid Row recently. And you listen, if you can see

451
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,440
Speaker 1: either one of those bands without their original lead singer,

452
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:44,080
Speaker 1: I think you have to do it. I will admit.

453
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:46,000
Speaker 1: Though I was here, I was listening to hear I

454
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:48,280
Speaker 1: was listening to Serious or earlier today, I was looking

455
00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:51,320
Speaker 1: for the Jamie Edmondson Show or Mike the Miz or

456
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:53,480
Speaker 1: somebody you guys were on. I heard my name being

457
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 1: mentioned about somebody who was burned by Drey Johnson. And

458
00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,720
Speaker 1: I'm that kind of fantasy player that when somebody when

459
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,720
Speaker 1: but he burns me. I will write them off forever.

460
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:06,120
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. They're dead to me. Like it's it's

461
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 1: it's kind of like maybe a fantasy lifeboat or something.

462
00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:10,840
Speaker 1: It's like, you know what, at one point you're just

463
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,680
Speaker 1: tossed off, and you know what, and and and Drey

464
00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:17,800
Speaker 1: Johnson is in the ocean. Ye old Ray Johnson is

465
00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:20,920
Speaker 1: sitting there. You know, he's floating. He's floating on a

466
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:23,200
Speaker 1: on a on a door or something in the middle

467
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:24,840
Speaker 1: of the Atlantic. You're like, you know what, you stay

468
00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:27,080
Speaker 1: on the door, so he so you will not You're

469
00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 1: not getting into the fantasy lifeboat. If you are in

470
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:32,119
Speaker 1: a fantasy draftwere for some reason he is untouched in

471
00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:35,440
Speaker 1: round five, you are round five. You are still not

472
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 1: gonna draft Andre Johnson. If you want to throw on

473
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:39,600
Speaker 1: hypotheticals like that, then yes, I would lean over to

474
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:41,320
Speaker 1: my new wife, Angie Harmon and say, you know what,

475
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:45,159
Speaker 1: we're drafting Drey Johnson because it's the fifth round and

476
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,400
Speaker 1: he's ready to go okay, and she's done doing Risolian Aisle,

477
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:51,840
Speaker 1: so she'd be time to I'm doing a walk on

478
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,159
Speaker 1: that day. Actually, oh very nice. Are you gonna be

479
00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:59,479
Speaker 1: Risolier Aisles? Uh the other one. Okay, good, very all right.

480
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:01,440
Speaker 1: Now we talk about a bit of a breaking news

481
00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:03,880
Speaker 1: here that NFL Network and NFL dot Com is Michael

482
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 1: Lombardi has had the last couple of hours here, and

483
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:08,639
Speaker 1: let's talk about a big quarterback battle. You heard the

484
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 1: Jake Locker highlight right there. Michael Lombardi is reporting that

485
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:14,840
Speaker 1: Jake Locker is the favorite to win the starting job

486
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:18,560
Speaker 1: in Tennessee. And I think this suddenly puts an extra quarterback,

487
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,639
Speaker 1: a quarterback two in play because none of us, like

488
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,160
Speaker 1: Matt Hasselbeck, we'd stay away from him. But Jake Locker

489
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:26,720
Speaker 1: showed last year he could put some points on the board.

490
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:28,639
Speaker 1: He has a little bit of that magic in him

491
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 1: making big plays suddenly if he wins the job early

492
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:34,440
Speaker 1: and it's his job going in fabs. He's a guy

493
00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:36,320
Speaker 1: that you you say, okay, right around with time, you're

494
00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:38,200
Speaker 1: gonna take Andrew Lucker r G three, one of those

495
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,840
Speaker 1: guys Jake Lockers in that mix to be to be

496
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:42,920
Speaker 1: a real good number two guys. I think he is

497
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,080
Speaker 1: definitely gonna be someone who you can target somewhere in

498
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:48,159
Speaker 1: the late rounds. And Tennessee's schedule is real tough the

499
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 1: first three weeks. So even if Hasslebeck does keep that job,

500
00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 1: if the Titans are one and two oh and three,

501
00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,240
Speaker 1: they could easily go to Locker and let him take over.

502
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,200
Speaker 1: And hey, this is his team into foreseeable future. We

503
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 1: did see some flashes with Locker last year. He can

504
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:05,360
Speaker 1: get out of the pocket a little bit, he makes

505
00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:08,360
Speaker 1: plays with his feet. He actually can score some fantasy

506
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:10,520
Speaker 1: points for your team. Now, the one thing that I

507
00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 1: would say is that the quarterback position is so unbelievably

508
00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 1: ridiculously deep this year that I don't know that he's

509
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:18,359
Speaker 1: going to emerge into a number one fantasy quarterback. But

510
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:21,119
Speaker 1: he could be a matchup based starter, no doubt about that.

511
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:23,080
Speaker 1: I mean, last year, guys, I want one of my

512
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:24,920
Speaker 1: fantasy leagues with Matt Moore down the stretch because I

513
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,000
Speaker 1: liked those matchups that he had. I didn't have the

514
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:32,040
Speaker 1: elite quarterback. So you can definitely target Locker somewhere in

515
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 1: the late rounds as a number two. Again, as a

516
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,080
Speaker 1: matchup based starter. I don't think he's gonna come out

517
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,480
Speaker 1: and beat Cam Newton, for example. He's not gonna be

518
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 1: one of these top five guys, but I do like

519
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 1: the fact that if they do go with Locker, as

520
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:47,600
Speaker 1: Michael Lombardi says, he has learned that he's the favorite,

521
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:51,119
Speaker 1: that's good news for the passing game. Also, Okay, you

522
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:53,080
Speaker 1: know Chris Johnson is gonna run the football, but this

523
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 1: is good news for Kenny Britt. If he's even playing

524
00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:58,560
Speaker 1: in the first four, you could get arrested the six

525
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,119
Speaker 1: who knows what a knucklehead. It's very good news for

526
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:03,200
Speaker 1: Kendall Wright who signed today. It's very good news for

527
00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:06,359
Speaker 1: Jared Cook, who's a deep sleeper in fantasy. Uh, it's

528
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:08,640
Speaker 1: very good news for Nate Washington, who had a thousand

529
00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:13,440
Speaker 1: yards season in so certainly a situation that fantasy owners

530
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:16,120
Speaker 1: need to keep tabs on because if Locker becomes the guy,

531
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:19,200
Speaker 1: he's very draftable in seasonal leagues. Yeah, it's one of

532
00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 1: those situations. And you talk about the early season schedule.

533
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:25,560
Speaker 1: They're playing the Patriots, the Chargers, the Lions, the Texans,

534
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:28,080
Speaker 1: and then they play the Vikings in Week five. Guys

535
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:30,040
Speaker 1: are starting to get into bye weeks. In Week five,

536
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:32,639
Speaker 1: there's a chance that Jake Locker could come in and

537
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:36,200
Speaker 1: and be a serviceable backup for you. Because you look

538
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,480
Speaker 1: at your fantasy drafts, you're gonna take a stud hopefully

539
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:41,119
Speaker 1: with your first pick. As a quarterback, you're gonna get

540
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 1: either one of the top guys, or you're gonna wait

541
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:45,920
Speaker 1: for somebody like Tony Romo or Philip Rivers or even

542
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:49,240
Speaker 1: Eli Manning. When you go to select your second quarterback,

543
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 1: you have the opportunity to draft some of the curtain jerkers,

544
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 1: some of the mid card jobbers. Listen, Joe Flacco, he's

545
00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 1: not gonna be an elite fantasy quarterback. Mark Sanchez probab.

546
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,920
Speaker 1: We won't have six rushing touchdowns again, which was all

547
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,000
Speaker 1: of his value last year in two thousand and eleven.

548
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 1: Why not take a chance on a guy like Jake

549
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:10,760
Speaker 1: Locker who has what they would call a fantasy ceiling,

550
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 1: who could be the guy who goes up and puts

551
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:16,920
Speaker 1: up some big points him luck r G three. These

552
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 1: guys have the opportunity to be big time guys, and

553
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:21,120
Speaker 1: you know what you're getting, Like you know what you're

554
00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:22,639
Speaker 1: gonna get with mat Shop, You're gonna get a guy

555
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:24,280
Speaker 1: who's gonna be handing off the ball to bent Aid

556
00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:26,840
Speaker 1: and Arian Foster all the time, and then wishing that

557
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:29,080
Speaker 1: Andre Johnson was healthy enough to play, so you know

558
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:31,320
Speaker 1: what you're getting with him. Why not take a chance

559
00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 1: on somebody like him? All right, let me throw this

560
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 1: guy's out and out there to here. You're taking your

561
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:39,360
Speaker 1: second quarterback. Locker, Luck, and r G three are all

562
00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:41,200
Speaker 1: on the board. You can have your pick at any

563
00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:43,919
Speaker 1: one of those three guys. Who do you take? If

564
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 1: you're gonna ask me, I'm gonna and Locker is the start.

565
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 1: Let me say Locker. We find out Lockers a starter

566
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:50,280
Speaker 1: all the way through. He wins the job. He's gonna

567
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:52,280
Speaker 1: started going to the season. Those three guys are available,

568
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:53,760
Speaker 1: who do you take? I'm gonna take Luck is my

569
00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:57,640
Speaker 1: number one because he is a good passer who's gonna

570
00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:01,600
Speaker 1: have an opportunity to throw the ball because Indianapolis conceivably

571
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:04,040
Speaker 1: will be trailing in a lot of games. Luck is

572
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,159
Speaker 1: a lot more athletic than people give him credit for.

573
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:09,159
Speaker 1: If you look at his combine numbers compared to a

574
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 1: guy like Cam Newton, very similar. And if he watched

575
00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:13,760
Speaker 1: him play when he was at Stanford, he was he

576
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 1: was running over defending defensive backs. He was he knocked

577
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:20,639
Speaker 1: out some guy who would recovered the fumble he caught.

578
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 1: You know, he had a one handed catch against U. C.

579
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,119
Speaker 1: L A. He's an athletic guy, and when the Colts

580
00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:27,280
Speaker 1: get down near the goal line, they don't really have

581
00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:30,480
Speaker 1: that solid number one running back. And Luck is a big,

582
00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:32,920
Speaker 1: physical guy. He could be calling his own number. So

583
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:35,440
Speaker 1: I look for him to get like nine rushing touchdowns

584
00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:38,400
Speaker 1: this year. It doesn't, it doesn't. See it's a lot

585
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:40,840
Speaker 1: of rushing touchdowns, but he's gonna be the guy the

586
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 1: way the NFL goes. Now, if this was the old

587
00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:46,440
Speaker 1: Colts regime, then they wouldn't they wouldn't be doing that.

588
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:48,840
Speaker 1: They're not gonna call Peyton Manning's number and things like that.

589
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,440
Speaker 1: Luck gives them that added demension. And a lot of people,

590
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 1: probably not guys who are scouting the league, but a

591
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:56,040
Speaker 1: lot of people just don't think that he's athletic. He

592
00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:58,480
Speaker 1: really is, So I go with him. I would put r.

593
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:00,960
Speaker 1: G three is the second guy there because the reason

594
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 1: I avoid him it's because Mike Shanahan and his coach

595
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:08,159
Speaker 1: and he's just and he develops young quarterbacks. Have you

596
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:11,720
Speaker 1: also have you also heard, speaking of Shanahan, the comments

597
00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 1: he made about Evan Royster loves him, he says he

598
00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:21,080
Speaker 1: sack him. He loves that. I would not be surprised

599
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:24,960
Speaker 1: if Royster becomes a starter. That's why I avoid everyone.

600
00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:28,919
Speaker 1: I am taking up the Adam Rank flag and waving

601
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:32,440
Speaker 1: Itahan against. I want nothing to do with anything that

602
00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:36,240
Speaker 1: Shanahan does in that backfield, unless it's like my late

603
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:38,720
Speaker 1: flex starter or a fourth running back. I'll maybe take

604
00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:41,760
Speaker 1: a chance on it. Too much risk for me. Out

605
00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:44,400
Speaker 1: of those quarterbacks. It's RG three And the fact of

606
00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:54,600
Speaker 1: the matter is that backback back. The quarterback doesn't He's different.

607
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 1: He's not Doctor Jekyll Mr. Hyde when it comes to quarterbacks.

608
00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,440
Speaker 1: Oh with the quarterbacks. So let me let me ask

609
00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:03,080
Speaker 1: you guys a question him. Okay, Jake Plumber's best fantasy season.

610
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:07,680
Speaker 1: Who is this? Who's his head coach? Marv lev who's

611
00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:09,959
Speaker 1: head coach in Arizona State when he was a senior.

612
00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:16,080
Speaker 1: Brian Greasy's best fantasy season? Who is that coach? Okay,

613
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:19,800
Speaker 1: Mike Shanahan. So you can't say that Shanahan can't develop

614
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:24,080
Speaker 1: a quarterback. He can't develop a quarterback. He's had successful

615
00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:28,480
Speaker 1: quarterbacks fantasy from a fantasy perspective on his roster in

616
00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 1: the past. We will leave John Ellie out of that

617
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:32,760
Speaker 1: because John Elley was one of the greatest quarterbacks. He

618
00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:37,880
Speaker 1: also didn't draft him, but Jay Cutler um he was

619
00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:41,480
Speaker 1: pretty good. Yeah, he's also so you can't say that

620
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:46,840
Speaker 1: that Shanahan's quarterbacks are garbage. He's I think Robert Griffin

621
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:48,719
Speaker 1: the third is in a very good position to succeed. Well,

622
00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:50,440
Speaker 1: I think, well, I think you can say, look Brian

623
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,560
Speaker 1: Greasy his NFL career, he was a bust, right but

624
00:29:53,760 --> 00:30:01,040
Speaker 1: the one yea. But Jake Plumber legend and they him. Yeah,

625
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:04,280
Speaker 1: but I'm talking to Cutler's had problems. He's just starting

626
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:07,000
Speaker 1: to come around now. I think that the situation, this

627
00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 1: is why I would go Locker actually first ahead of

628
00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 1: these guys, just because I think Locker is gonna play

629
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:13,160
Speaker 1: in a better team. He's gonna make plays with his

630
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:15,080
Speaker 1: feet too that we're not counting on. And I think

631
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:17,200
Speaker 1: Luck will struggle in games, will have more three four

632
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:19,960
Speaker 1: interception games. It's close, But r G three for me

633
00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:22,720
Speaker 1: is third behind those guys, just because you know they're

634
00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:24,320
Speaker 1: not gonna let him do his thing, and he's such

635
00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:26,720
Speaker 1: a different quarterback than he's ever had before. As much

636
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:29,760
Speaker 1: as Shanahan can say, you know what, Yeah, Robert Griffin's

637
00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:31,560
Speaker 1: gonna come. No, They're gonna try to to put that

638
00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:34,160
Speaker 1: square peg round hole and he's gonna struggle and he's

639
00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:35,920
Speaker 1: gonna be stunted. What's it gonna be a month in

640
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:38,360
Speaker 1: this season where we see the headline one day sources

641
00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:40,960
Speaker 1: r G three not happy with offensive system. You know,

642
00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:43,200
Speaker 1: That's why That's why I'm scared of RG three this year.

643
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 1: You know what? Also with Jake Locker, though, the one

644
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:46,880
Speaker 1: thing I would fear is that they're gonna be handing

645
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:49,520
Speaker 1: the ball off to Chris Johnson. And that's not really

646
00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:51,480
Speaker 1: something that Andrew luck Is going to have to deal

647
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,280
Speaker 1: with in Indianapolis. I don't I don't think so. I

648
00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:56,160
Speaker 1: don't see him like handing the ball off a ton,

649
00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:59,680
Speaker 1: But I like Locker and in his athleticism, again, another

650
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:03,520
Speaker 1: guy who's probably not viewed as athletic as people are

651
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:06,600
Speaker 1: giving him credit for. He was drafted by the Anaheim Angels,

652
00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:10,040
Speaker 1: you know, so he's he's an athletic guy. I like

653
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,160
Speaker 1: that too, but I still think with that that's that

654
00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:14,920
Speaker 1: offense is Chris Johnson's and it's gonna all go through him.

655
00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 1: Fad You're looking up Jake Plumber statu you're looking at

656
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:21,320
Speaker 1: the season in two thousand and four with the Broncos,

657
00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:23,920
Speaker 1: he had over four thousand passing yards. And again, remember

658
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:25,720
Speaker 1: this is two thousand four. This isn't last year where

659
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:28,280
Speaker 1: everyone s throwing for four thousand and five thousand, twenty

660
00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 1: seven touchdowns. He had twenty interceptions. But that was Jacob

661
00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 1: that was Jake Plumber sort of m O. The following

662
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:34,640
Speaker 1: year he had seven picks, which was much better, but

663
00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:38,800
Speaker 1: he had fewer touchdown passes. Uh so. And overall in

664
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:42,960
Speaker 1: two thousand and four, Plumber scored twenty eight touchdowns and

665
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:46,160
Speaker 1: through four over four thousand yards. I mean, that's that's

666
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:48,920
Speaker 1: pretty good. I like that. I mean, I'm not Plumber

667
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:52,880
Speaker 1: wasn't the greatest quarterback. Stop it he was. Don't don't

668
00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:56,120
Speaker 1: start him? Alright, Well, yeah, you know what I remember

669
00:31:56,120 --> 00:32:01,520
Speaker 1: about my Cowboys in the playoffs. But first win, because

670
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:03,280
Speaker 1: that's the second time, because they beat them in Jerry

671
00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:07,360
Speaker 1: McGuire and then they actually beat him in real life. Smith,

672
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:09,160
Speaker 1: there was the last two times. You know, I was

673
00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:11,960
Speaker 1: in Jerry McGuire, were you okay, I'll bite you were

674
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:13,800
Speaker 1: in Jerry McGuire. No, I was in you know, I

675
00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:17,720
Speaker 1: was in that movie. I was. I was, Yeah, I

676
00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:22,160
Speaker 1: was Bob Sugar. Now I was. I was fan number

677
00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:26,160
Speaker 1: fifty thousand, one hundred and thirty eight. Oh, you were

678
00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:28,000
Speaker 1: at the game. I was at the game very night.

679
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:30,440
Speaker 1: You know, it's funny because you see great performance by

680
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 1: you by the way, I felt I really brought it home.

681
00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:35,080
Speaker 1: You cheered when you were supposed to. Yeah, it was good,

682
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:36,800
Speaker 1: you know, and I was like what, I threw my

683
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 1: hands up. I was really impressive. I just know. It's

684
00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:42,760
Speaker 1: just funny because if you're in Los Angeles where we're filming,

685
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 1: and you like you look at these comedians who always

686
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:48,000
Speaker 1: have their credits up, like hey, this guy was on

687
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:50,720
Speaker 1: you know, the Love Boat, or like like why he's like, yeah,

688
00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:54,000
Speaker 1: I was an infant. Okay, that's not that's not a credit.

689
00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:56,200
Speaker 1: You weren't on there, like starring on it. Like a

690
00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:59,480
Speaker 1: lot of times, like I I take offense because you know,

691
00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:03,160
Speaker 1: I'm the are Fantasy Live. You know I can use

692
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:05,800
Speaker 1: that as a credit. Okay. I give Rank a lot

693
00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:07,880
Speaker 1: of credit. He had to gain a lot of weight

694
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:11,920
Speaker 1: for that role. But I still have it lost. Wow.

695
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 1: Dylan Millner rod producer coming in with a big singer

696
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:19,240
Speaker 1: right there. NFL Fantasy Live, Jason Smith, Michael Fabiano, Adam

697
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:21,959
Speaker 1: Rank here on Serious XM Fantasy Sports Radio series two

698
00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:24,880
Speaker 1: ten XM eight seven. A real quick let's get to

699
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 1: this quarterback new or running back news. Second, we talked

700
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:30,840
Speaker 1: about Indianapolis, speaking of Michael Lombardi. NFL Network NFL dot

701
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:33,480
Speaker 1: Com also reported that the guy who could be the

702
00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:36,600
Speaker 1: favorite to be the starting running back in Indianapolis this

703
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:40,120
Speaker 1: year is Edward is Vic Ballard. You almost said Edward.

704
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:43,040
Speaker 1: I was kidding. I said I was gonna see. But

705
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:44,680
Speaker 1: he could actually go back there and be the starting

706
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:47,840
Speaker 1: running back again that situation. He likes Vick Vick Ballard

707
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,880
Speaker 1: could That's a situation where you could see a sleeper

708
00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:54,160
Speaker 1: like Vick Ballard. Because Donald Brown, if you ever talked

709
00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:56,200
Speaker 1: to Steve why she can't stand down on Brown? Can't

710
00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:58,600
Speaker 1: stand him. And he did have some good games last year.

711
00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:02,080
Speaker 1: I believe he had over a five yard kerry average,

712
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 1: which which is which is very good. But I don't

713
00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:07,000
Speaker 1: know that Donald Brown is a number one running back

714
00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:08,719
Speaker 1: in the National Football League. He's been in the league

715
00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:10,759
Speaker 1: long enough to prove that he isn't. And they've also

716
00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:12,800
Speaker 1: got to lone Carter there and again Ballard is a

717
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:15,239
Speaker 1: guy who could sneak up the depth chart. Uh. That

718
00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:18,800
Speaker 1: is certainly a situation to watch because what is a

719
00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:21,880
Speaker 1: rookie quarterback's best friend? A lot of times it's it's

720
00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:24,960
Speaker 1: a very effective running games. All right. So if that

721
00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:27,680
Speaker 1: rookie quarterback wasn't Andrew Luck, okay, yeah, who still who?

722
00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:29,400
Speaker 1: They're gonna let him throw as much as pop But

723
00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:32,040
Speaker 1: you never know, I mean, Ballard could be that because no,

724
00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:34,040
Speaker 1: because are you really going to be excited about drafting

725
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,080
Speaker 1: Donald Brown? It's a name or watch and it's definitely

726
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:39,600
Speaker 1: a dynasty league name. And I think that's a competition

727
00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:42,080
Speaker 1: that you're gonna have to keep tabs on because Donald Brown,

728
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:45,920
Speaker 1: to me, doesn't doesn't fit the mold of a number

729
00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:47,920
Speaker 1: one NFL running back. I like that though, when you

730
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:49,759
Speaker 1: get you know, when you get to the end of

731
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 1: your draft and you're starting to pick out and people

732
00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:55,000
Speaker 1: like to go with familiar names, somebody will take a

733
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:57,319
Speaker 1: flyer on Braylon Edwards. So you guys were talking about

734
00:34:57,320 --> 00:34:59,760
Speaker 1: in the previous segment, or or somebody like that, who's

735
00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:02,440
Speaker 1: fam You're it's better just to have the guy who

736
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:05,200
Speaker 1: has the potential. Now you're gonna miss on some of

737
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:07,480
Speaker 1: these guys, you know, they just don't work out, and

738
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:10,080
Speaker 1: and things you know just don't work out, you know,

739
00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:13,839
Speaker 1: But you have a guy that will at one point

740
00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:16,640
Speaker 1: start scoring touchdowns. And then when all year, when all

741
00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:19,000
Speaker 1: your league mates are going to the going to the

742
00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,600
Speaker 1: waiver wire trying to find this guy, what ranks already

743
00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:25,320
Speaker 1: got him? How did he know? That's what I like

744
00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:27,239
Speaker 1: doing well. And you know the other thing I like

745
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:30,600
Speaker 1: about a guy like Vick Ballard is that look, take

746
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:32,920
Speaker 1: a chance on him in the late rounds. Absolutely, because

747
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,919
Speaker 1: by go over the course of the season, if you're

748
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:38,120
Speaker 1: an involved owner and you're looking at the waiver wire

749
00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:39,560
Speaker 1: every week and you're trying to pick people up and

750
00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:43,040
Speaker 1: wave him, you will wave half of your roster. By

751
00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:44,839
Speaker 1: the time the season ends. You know, you're only gonna

752
00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:48,400
Speaker 1: you will probably only stick with maybe six guys that

753
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:50,759
Speaker 1: you drafted. Everybody else is gonna there's gonna be a

754
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:52,279
Speaker 1: lot of turnover because you're looking for that right and

755
00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:54,759
Speaker 1: makes the guys. So taking a guy like Vick Ballard later,

756
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:56,960
Speaker 1: do I take Vick Ballard? Or you know, do I

757
00:35:57,200 --> 00:35:59,360
Speaker 1: do I sit here and go Jonathan Stewart. You know,

758
00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:01,240
Speaker 1: all right, when we take a chance here because eventually,

759
00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:03,480
Speaker 1: if three weeks go buy and Jonathan Stewart does nothing,

760
00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:05,560
Speaker 1: you're waving him where Ballad could be a guy you

761
00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:07,600
Speaker 1: sit in staff, So you're gonna we're gonna wave half

762
00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:10,719
Speaker 1: your roster anyway. Yeah, you got Bernard Scott's out there,

763
00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:13,560
Speaker 1: Kendall Hunter, you know these names who are just kind

764
00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:16,640
Speaker 1: of like, I'm taking a chance on somebody. But Ballard

765
00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:18,719
Speaker 1: has a chance to actually become a starter. You're not

766
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:21,719
Speaker 1: gonna see Kendall Hunter. But Bernard Scott's can not gonna

767
00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:24,359
Speaker 1: become a starter unless somebody gets injured. You can wait

768
00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:26,520
Speaker 1: on that. Why not take somebody who has the sleeper

769
00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:28,840
Speaker 1: potential to be a number one guy and to be

770
00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:31,240
Speaker 1: the guy who has the job for the entire season.

Speaker 1: This was right? Peace of mind? Yeah, there we go.

786
00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:35,719
Speaker 1: there's a place where we can go. You know what,

787
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:38,600
Speaker 1: It's funny, you could actually do a thing of like

788
00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 1: what is the greatest Maiden song that they don't play

789
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:43,839
Speaker 1: in concert? Because I I would go to a because

790
00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:46,920
Speaker 1: they never play the shows I've seen recently. Can I

791
00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:51,200
Speaker 1: play with Madness, Holy Smoke and The Prisoner like that?

792
00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:53,360
Speaker 1: They could play all three of those, like open with

793
00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:55,200
Speaker 1: those and I'd be very happy. They only do a

794
00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:57,480
Speaker 1: couple and they don't. They don't do like they don't

795
00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:00,919
Speaker 1: do um uh Prowler, which is the first the first

796
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:03,280
Speaker 1: album which is so good. They don't do Remember Tomorrow,

797
00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:05,960
Speaker 1: which is like the very first heavy metal ballad that

798
00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:08,239
Speaker 1: I can remember listening to, such a good song. They

799
00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:09,960
Speaker 1: can do such a there's so many songs. It's like

800
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:11,719
Speaker 1: Prince all right, I can't. I can only do so

801
00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:13,640
Speaker 1: many songs because I have so many of them. They

802
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:16,520
Speaker 1: could do. They're doing shows out here in southern California

803
00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:19,600
Speaker 1: coming up. They they're doing two days and Irvine. You

804
00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:22,000
Speaker 1: could do that, like one day, here's this, We're playing

805
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:24,320
Speaker 1: these songs and then the next day play an entirely

806
00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:26,480
Speaker 1: different set list. Both of them would be worth going

807
00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:28,200
Speaker 1: to and people would buy ticket. You can buy tickets

808
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:30,440
Speaker 1: for both days all these Wow, we're not going to

809
00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:34,959
Speaker 1: repeat once. It's a no repeat, Tuesday repeat. Jason Smith,

810
00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:38,000
Speaker 1: Michael Fabiano, Adam Rank from NFL Network and NFL dot Com.

811
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:40,920
Speaker 1: This is NFL Fantasy Lives. We get set to kick

812
00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 1: off our season on the Internet and then on NFL

813
00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:47,919
Speaker 1: Network on September two. We go six days a week,

814
00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:50,680
Speaker 1: hour a day of all your fantasy knowledge. Speaking of

815
00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:52,279
Speaker 1: fantasy knowledge, get to your calls coming up in a

816
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:55,080
Speaker 1: second eight nine six three to six eight two. That's

817
00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:58,840
Speaker 1: eight x M fantasy. But first, as promised, the player

818
00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:01,640
Speaker 1: whose fantasy value who has risen the most in the

819
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:04,759
Speaker 1: last week, and the player whose value has decreased the

820
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:06,440
Speaker 1: most that just so happened to play in the same team.

821
00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:08,759
Speaker 1: That's what happened to play in the same position. All

822
00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:11,040
Speaker 1: reports were getting out of Tampa Bay is basically Doug

823
00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:13,360
Speaker 1: Martin has won the starting running back job. He's been

824
00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:16,040
Speaker 1: so impressive in camp. Greag Ciano is had all kinds

825
00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:17,719
Speaker 1: off fusive praise for him that they took him in

826
00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:19,880
Speaker 1: the first round for a reason. La Garrett Blunt is

827
00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:22,719
Speaker 1: not even getting reps in camp now. Suddenly he went

828
00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:25,000
Speaker 1: in fact, in our expert League draft. I don't I

829
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:27,560
Speaker 1: don't know. La Garrett Blunt got drafted until the fourteenth round.

830
00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:30,279
Speaker 1: His value has fallen so far now he may even

831
00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:32,799
Speaker 1: go to undraftable. I mean, you know, you don't even

832
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:34,680
Speaker 1: know if he's gonna make the team at this point. Yeah, listen,

833
00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:36,560
Speaker 1: Doug tug Martin was a sleeper the second he got

834
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:38,759
Speaker 1: drafted in the first round by the Tampay Buccaneers before

835
00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:43,440
Speaker 1: we saw La Garrett Blunt last year. He's very one dimensional.

836
00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:46,000
Speaker 1: He could run the ball, he's athletic, he can't jump.

837
00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:49,040
Speaker 1: He can jump, he can't catch, and he can't block.

838
00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:51,480
Speaker 1: And anytime you're a running back in the NFL who

839
00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:54,160
Speaker 1: can't block, you're gonna lose reps, You're gonna lose time

840
00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:56,359
Speaker 1: on the field. Martin can do it all. He can

841
00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:58,719
Speaker 1: catch the ball out of the backfield. Obviously, he's a

842
00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:02,239
Speaker 1: very very good runner, and he can block. He can

843
00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:04,239
Speaker 1: pick up the blitz and that's huge when you're talking

844
00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:07,200
Speaker 1: about running back position. Uh And I know, Jason, you

845
00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:08,840
Speaker 1: didn't like him because he went to boys State, But

846
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:10,680
Speaker 1: I don't care about Boys' State. I'm still taking him

847
00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:18,200
Speaker 1: so they don't do well in I mean, yes, I'll

848
00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:21,880
Speaker 1: take him. I'll take him as my flex and at

849
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:24,319
Speaker 1: some point very soon, I think he could end up

850
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:28,520
Speaker 1: moving into RB two land in a ten team league. Um,

851
00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:31,799
Speaker 1: you've seen it. I think right now is a DP

852
00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:34,480
Speaker 1: on on NFL dot Com is right around six and seven.

853
00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:37,239
Speaker 1: I think he could start sneaking into round five, and

854
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:39,680
Speaker 1: if you keep hearing positive reports about him, he could

855
00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:41,960
Speaker 1: even steak in the run four potentially in a twelfth

856
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:45,080
Speaker 1: team league. But again, there's no guarantees with these rookie

857
00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:47,480
Speaker 1: running backs. Last year we all loved Mark ing Orman.

858
00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:49,719
Speaker 1: He ended up not being as good as we thought

859
00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:52,759
Speaker 1: he would be. Uh So it's not like this is

860
00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:54,920
Speaker 1: a guarantee. And this is the big thing about the

861
00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:57,920
Speaker 1: running back position this year. Guys, you tell me Adam

862
00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:04,520
Speaker 1: Jason outside of Arian Foster, Sean McCoy and Ray Rice,

863
00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:08,200
Speaker 1: give me a sure thing at the position. A sure thing?

864
00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:11,360
Speaker 1: Can you name any not not a guy that I think, not,

865
00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:13,200
Speaker 1: not like a Ryan Matthews who I think is going

866
00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:15,080
Speaker 1: to have a breakout Adam, a sure thing at the

867
00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:19,279
Speaker 1: running back position not named Rice, McCoy or Foster. I'm sorry,

868
00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:23,160
Speaker 1: I was looking up Iron Maiden tickets. I forgot to

869
00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:27,680
Speaker 1: get him. It's my fault, Ryan Matthews. He's a sure thing.

870
00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:30,479
Speaker 1: Let me tell you something. I love it. I don't

871
00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:35,120
Speaker 1: understand because everybody I have Darren McFadden as my number

872
00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:39,120
Speaker 1: eighteen running back, and everybody's like in my grill on

873
00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:42,080
Speaker 1: Twitter at Adam Rank going why do you have him

874
00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:43,840
Speaker 1: so low? I'm like, yeah, you're right, he's been so

875
00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:47,880
Speaker 1: healthy for so many years. How could I possibly downgrade

876
00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:50,960
Speaker 1: this guy who has who's played one full season out

877
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:54,520
Speaker 1: of four forgive me, I know that's my fault. And

878
00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:58,520
Speaker 1: then Ryan Matthews. Ryan Matthews played in fourteen games last year,

879
00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:00,959
Speaker 1: and he's the one who it's all the jokes about

880
00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:04,120
Speaker 1: being heard all the time, Like, why what am I watching? Like?

881
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:06,920
Speaker 1: He was healthy last year, he had a good season

882
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:09,080
Speaker 1: last year, and now you get rid of the touchdown

883
00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:12,759
Speaker 1: vulture Mike Tilbert. Yeah, he's a sure thing. I say,

884
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:15,839
Speaker 1: no problem with Ryan Matt. So he's my solid number

885
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:20,920
Speaker 1: four even if we have four. Okay, that's not a lot, man, No,

886
00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:23,439
Speaker 1: it's not. It's not a lot. And so you're gonna

887
00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:25,680
Speaker 1: see guys like Doug Martin who are starting to get

888
00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:28,240
Speaker 1: all of this publicity and training camp for for playing

889
00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:31,120
Speaker 1: so well and picking up blitz is and doing all

890
00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:33,480
Speaker 1: the intangibles that are gonna keep him on the field.

891
00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:37,200
Speaker 1: Uh weekend and week out. You're gonna see guys like

892
00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:40,560
Speaker 1: this start moving up in terms of a DP. Definitely

893
00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:42,560
Speaker 1: a guy that you're going to want to target. I

894
00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:44,600
Speaker 1: don't know if I'm comfortable drafting him as a two

895
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:46,800
Speaker 1: in a ten team league, as a high end flex

896
00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:49,200
Speaker 1: at least right now at the end of July, but

897
00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:53,040
Speaker 1: his value is rising for sure. If I'm looking at

898
00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:54,960
Speaker 1: my team and I see Doug Martin in my r

899
00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:57,600
Speaker 1: B two spot, I'm not happy with my sight unseen.

900
00:42:57,920 --> 00:42:59,680
Speaker 1: I'm not happy that I had to drive because there's

901
00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:01,560
Speaker 1: so many there's other guys out there I'd rather take

902
00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:03,439
Speaker 1: a chance on. I'll take a chance on de Marko

903
00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:05,120
Speaker 1: Murray even though we couldn't stay healthy because of his

904
00:43:05,200 --> 00:43:07,799
Speaker 1: upside this there's other younger running backs that I think, Okay,

905
00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:10,239
Speaker 1: this guy is gonna come through. I just see Doug Martin.

906
00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:12,759
Speaker 1: I think, really, is he gonna suddenly be a star

907
00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:14,759
Speaker 1: on the Bucks who are gonna throw the football more?

908
00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:16,759
Speaker 1: Because that's what they really did, was to upgrade the

909
00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:18,759

917
00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:57,480
Speaker 1: Those guys to me are all low end twos or

918
00:43:57,560 --> 00:44:00,200
Speaker 1: high end threes. So let's take some phone calls here guys. First,

919
00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:02,640
Speaker 1: we're going to take a call from Vance in Mississippi.

920
00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:05,839
Speaker 1: He's got a question about a bonus point league. Vance.

921
00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:09,640
Speaker 1: Welcome to NFL Fantasy Live. Thank you guys so much. Okay,

922
00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:13,600
Speaker 1: it's the sixteen team league and it is all family members.

923
00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:25,320
Speaker 1: Uh so there's a little added family members, cousins and

924
00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:29,360
Speaker 1: dance and uncles. It's not the Dennis Rodman family or anything. Okay,

925
00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:32,560
Speaker 1: Romney family. Can you imagine what the stakes are each year,

926
00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:34,560
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be like a million dollars a person,

927
00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:39,719
Speaker 1: all right, So anyway, uh, it's basically what they call

928
00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:43,280
Speaker 1: the Benjamin Bonus. Every a hundred you get a point,

929
00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:47,480
Speaker 1: so a hundred rushing or receiving yards one point two hundred,

930
00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:51,239
Speaker 1: two points three hundred three, and it counts for quarterbacks

931
00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:54,160
Speaker 1: as well. So I want to ask you this. Uh

932
00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:57,880
Speaker 1: My mom has a number one overall pick, so she

933
00:44:58,040 --> 00:45:00,960
Speaker 1: asked me to ask you, guys. We you go quarterback,

934
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:05,080
Speaker 1: which is five points for a passing, touchdowns, receiving and

935
00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:09,120
Speaker 1: rushing in the first round under like, just no question

936
00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:12,200
Speaker 1: because of the bonus point. This is a great question

937
00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:14,040
Speaker 1: because fabs, I know you and I are on opposite

938
00:45:14,080 --> 00:45:16,759
Speaker 1: side to the spect. Well, no, this is this is

939
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:19,960
Speaker 1: a completely different situation. You're talking about bonus points, where

940
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:22,920
Speaker 1: you get a point for every hundred yards regardless of

941
00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:25,719
Speaker 1: of course it's a quarterback. It's Aaron Rodgers. How do

942
00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:28,400
Speaker 1: you not take him? Number one? I love Arian Foster,

943
00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:32,239
Speaker 1: but you're you're basically getting an extra three points off

944
00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:34,759
Speaker 1: the bat with Aaron Rodgers. He's gonna throw for three

945
00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:37,920
Speaker 1: hundred yards most games, right, well, with any any elite quarterbacks.

946
00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:40,759
Speaker 1: What you're saying, plus you're gonna get the rushing yards

947
00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:43,320
Speaker 1: and all the touchdowns, and it's five points for a

948
00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:47,360
Speaker 1: passing touchdown. In this situation, it's a quarterback. That's the

949
00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:49,400
Speaker 1: way it should be in fantasy football. Quarterback should be

950
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:51,680
Speaker 1: worth more. Yeah. I don't like the leagues where you're

951
00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:54,439
Speaker 1: you get only like four points for a touchdown pass

952
00:45:54,520 --> 00:45:56,680
Speaker 1: like he's working hard. I mean it evens out. I

953
00:45:56,760 --> 00:45:59,919
Speaker 1: mean so, Vince, I think that I think the answer

954
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:02,400
Speaker 1: that we all agree on here is Aaron Rodgers. And

955
00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:04,680
Speaker 1: tell your mom we said hello and good luck this

956
00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:09,200
Speaker 1: year in the UH sixteen team family draft. I like it.

957
00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:12,080
Speaker 1: I like the family goes. Do you think it's like

958
00:46:12,160 --> 00:46:14,839
Speaker 1: second cousins are playing could be. Yeah, I don't even

959
00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:17,480
Speaker 1: know if they all know each other. You met him,

960
00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:19,480
Speaker 1: remember you met him at the reunion five years ago.

961
00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:21,879
Speaker 1: He was a short guy with the mustache. Remember, Yeah,

962
00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:23,880
Speaker 1: he's got a typo. Yeah, let's let's stick with the

963
00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:26,320
Speaker 1: phones and go to Jim in Michigan. Who's got a

964
00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:32,080
Speaker 1: keeper question? Jim, great show, Thanks man, I got a

965
00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:34,480
Speaker 1: question I got. I'm in a league where the word

966
00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:36,680
Speaker 1: have you draft him last year? You can keep him

967
00:46:37,320 --> 00:46:41,080
Speaker 1: two rounds earlier year after, But I can only keep

968
00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:44,000
Speaker 1: two of these guys, and uh, one of them. I

969
00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:45,680
Speaker 1: got Cam Newton. I can keep him for a tenth

970
00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:48,400
Speaker 1: round pick, so he's pretty much a lock. But then

971
00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:51,839
Speaker 1: I've also got Julio Jones in the fifth, and I've

972
00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:56,000
Speaker 1: got Stephen Ridley in the twelfth. I'll tell you something,

973
00:46:56,080 --> 00:46:58,960
Speaker 1: my man, I love me some Julio Jones. I think

974
00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:00,920
Speaker 1: Ridley is a good value for a twelfth front pick,

975
00:47:01,239 --> 00:47:04,840
Speaker 1: especially because Joseph and Die failed that conditioning test and

976
00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:07,120
Speaker 1: he's gone. Now he's out of the mix. But I

977
00:47:07,239 --> 00:47:09,160
Speaker 1: love Julio Jones. I'm telling you I think he could

978
00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:10,960
Speaker 1: be a top five receiver in Fantasy this year. I

979
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:12,919
Speaker 1: think you've been here in his voice, I think Jim

980
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:15,080
Speaker 1: was trying to say that I'm his favorite one from

981
00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:19,200
Speaker 1: Fantasy Life show. Jim, let me help you out, Julio Jones,

982
00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:22,080
Speaker 1: you have to keep this guy. I love Stephen Ridley,

983
00:47:22,080 --> 00:47:23,759
Speaker 1: but you're gonna be able to draft him. You don't

984
00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:26,880
Speaker 1: even know. Belichick has a little bit of the Shannahanigans

985
00:47:26,920 --> 00:47:28,800
Speaker 1: in him where it could be him, It could be Verene,

986
00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:31,520
Speaker 1: it could be it could be Sam Cunningham. You just

987
00:47:31,680 --> 00:47:34,280
Speaker 1: don't know. So I would say, Julio Jones, Cam Newton,

988
00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:36,080
Speaker 1: you got a great start to your team. I'd go

989
00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:38,440
Speaker 1: Sam Cunningham ahead of all those guys. I mean, he was,

990
00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:40,560
Speaker 1: you know here you couldn't yet there wasn't a better

991
00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:43,400
Speaker 1: nickname than Bam Sam Bam cunning I mean better than

992
00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:46,600
Speaker 1: Byron Bam Morris. He was a better band. I think

993
00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:50,000
Speaker 1: that's where he was. NFL Fantasy Live, Jason Smith, Michael Fabiano,
