1
00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:14,400
Speaker 1: Hey everybody, it's Wednesday, Jude twenty six, twenty twenty four.

2
00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:17,240
Speaker 1: Welcome to the NFL Fantasy Football POCAP. But we're reminded

3
00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:19,119
Speaker 1: it's crazy to be a sports fan. It's me and

4
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:21,600
Speaker 1: your man, MG, Marcus Grandjoy, My, Michael f Florio, and

5
00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:25,680
Speaker 1: Lakwan Jones. I was gonna mention this on yesterday show

6
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:29,120
Speaker 1: completely kind of slipped my mind, but you know, like

7
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:31,960
Speaker 1: being sports being a sports fan is sort of a crazy,

8
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:37,159
Speaker 1: borderline stupid endeavor. And I mention it because, you know,

9
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:38,879
Speaker 1: one I talk about the text chain I had with

10
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:41,120
Speaker 1: my friends all the time, and one of my friends

11
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:43,960
Speaker 1: is he grew up in the Bay Area like the

12
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:47,080
Speaker 1: rest of us, but he is of Croatian descent and

13
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:50,839
Speaker 1: he has family in Canada. And on Monday he had

14
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 1: maybe the worst possible sports that you could imagine, because

15
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:57,040
Speaker 1: the Croatian national team of the Euros coughed up a

16
00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:59,240
Speaker 1: late one nothing lead. They ended up in a tie

17
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 1: and they get eliminated. So that's how his day started. Yeah,

18
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:06,559
Speaker 1: and then later that night his family near Edmonton, and

19
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:09,399
Speaker 1: you know, the Oilers had pushed it all the way

20
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:12,399
Speaker 1: to Game seven and then they lose in Game seven,

21
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:14,679
Speaker 1: of the Stanley Cup finals. So like his we had

22
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:16,120
Speaker 1: to do like a wellness check on him to make

23
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 1: sure everything's fine.

24
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:17,560
Speaker 2: I mean he has.

25
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 1: He has texted us a couple of times since Monday nights,

26
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:22,880
Speaker 1: so we appear, it appears, at least on the surface,

27
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 1: that all is well, unless unless somehow his son is

28
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 1: just ghost texting for him. But it was just a

29
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 1: reminder that being a sports fan is just stupid.

30
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:36,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe we shouldn't do it. It's also hilarious, like

31
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 3: the fat at Canada. Look, look, I'm not gonna talk

32
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 3: about the soccer thing. I'm not a hockey guy at all,

33
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 3: but the fact that Canada as a country hasn't won

34
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:47,319
Speaker 3: a Stanley Cup in.

35
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 4: Over thirty years thirty is hilarious to me.

36
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 1: I was trying to think of, like, could you imagine

37
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 1: if like eighty percent of the NFL moved to like

38
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 1: Canada and then like all of those teams kept winning

39
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 1: super Like if you know, if somehow we were like

40
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 1: holding on to the Jaguars and like the Falcons is

41
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 1: our last chance to win Super Bowls? Like oh gosh,

42
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 1: I feel bad for Canada man, like this is their

43
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,640
Speaker 1: national sport and like it's it's basically been.

44
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 4: Taking and we dominate them minute.

45
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, we dominate, right, even though most of them are Canadian.

46
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:23,800
Speaker 1: The funniest part is, though I've talked to some Canadians,

47
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,360
Speaker 1: like mostly Canadians on the West Coast, like British Columbia

48
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:28,400
Speaker 1: or whatever, who were sort of like, yeah, man, if

49
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,239
Speaker 1: it's not the Canucks, then I don't care.

50
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:34,079
Speaker 2: I think you know. It was like sort of like, yeah,

51
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 2: like whatever, cheer for whatever. It's not the Canucks, Like

52
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 2: that's my team, I don't really care.

53
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:42,960
Speaker 1: So whatever, We're gonna dive into some off season storylines

54
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 1: that maybe are overblown, maybe deserve more attention. The inspiration

55
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 1: for this was an article that our own Eric ed

56
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:51,239
Speaker 1: Holm wrote on NFL dot com.

57
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:51,959
Speaker 2: You can go check it out.

58
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 1: Plus, we're gonna die into a preview of the scott

59
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,519
Speaker 1: Fish Bowl because we're just a few weeks away, a

60
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 1: couple of weeks away actually from the sf BE draft

61
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 1: kicking off. It's just only a fun day on Twitter

62
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 1: when people are posting their first picks. So yeah, we'll

63
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:08,519
Speaker 1: dive into that in just a little bit. But first

64
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 1: let's get to Eric ed Holmes article. It is at

65
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 1: NFL dot com. It is titled five NFL offseason storylines

66
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,960
Speaker 1: that are overblown, Five that deserve more attention. I pulled

67
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,239
Speaker 1: a couple out that I felt like we're talking about.

68
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 1: Not all of them were offensive minded, but I got

69
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 1: a couple that were the first. One overblown florio the

70
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 1: immediate success for Caleb Williams. There are high expectations. There's

71
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 1: already talked that he's in year one gonna be the

72
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 1: first Bears passer to throw for four thousand yards. Have

73
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,640
Speaker 1: we gone a little bit too overboard on expectations for

74
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 1: Caleb Williams?

75
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 5: No, I don't think so. I disagree with ed with

76
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 5: at home on this one, because if it was like

77
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 5: Bryce Young's rookie year or Trevor Lawrence's rookie year, then yeah,

78
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 5: then it's like, Okay, what did you expect these guys

79
00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 5: to do in year one?

80
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 4: But I would make the yard that at.

81
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:05,119
Speaker 5: Least in recent history, a number one quarterback has never

82
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 5: gone into a better situation like he's throwing to DJ Moore,

83
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 5: who is a proven wide receiver, one Keenan Allen, who

84
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 5: is potentially a future Hall of Famer and still at

85
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 5: the peak of his game.

86
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 4: And then you add in Roma Dunsa.

87
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 5: And all the weapons they're like, this has been a

88
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 5: build up, and kudos to Ryan Poles. He saw the

89
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,400
Speaker 5: vision well before a lot of other people. But the

90
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,920
Speaker 5: Bears have been building up for this season for three

91
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 5: years now and all the pieces are in place. So like,

92
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 5: I think the Bears could make the playoffs this year.

93
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:38,400
Speaker 5: I think Caleb could throw for four thousand yards. I

94
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 5: think that's all on the table. I'm not saying if

95
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:42,760
Speaker 5: those things don't happen, it's a failure.

96
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:44,599
Speaker 4: But if Caleb goes out.

97
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 5: There and looks lost and really struggles and has like

98
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:51,800
Speaker 5: a very down year one, I think we're gonna the

99
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 5: narrative around the Bears is going to be very very

100
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:55,720
Speaker 5: different a year from now.

101
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I guess you agree though that that's

102
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,839
Speaker 1: overblown or are you the only read that it's overblown?

103
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,839
Speaker 6: Lakwan, Yeah, it's not overblown. Like this is a real factor.

104
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,479
Speaker 7: You have this caliber of a quarterback coming in with

105
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 7: a very strong wide receiver corps, with a great running

106
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 7: back room as well. Like, the expectations are going to

107
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 7: be high. This is the best team Bears fans I've

108
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 7: probably seen in the last twenty years. To be honest, Like,

109
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 7: I feel as though, like you have Caleb Williams the

110
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 7: quarterback that he is, Like, you're going to enjoy the

111
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,360
Speaker 7: ride regardless of what it is, because we know they're

112
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,359
Speaker 7: going to go out there and win some games with

113
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:33,160
Speaker 7: this offense. So as a Bears fan, your expectations deserve

114
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 7: to be high. Versus having somebody like justin Field still

115
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,040
Speaker 7: in the building. Your expectations now are like, all right,

116
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,720
Speaker 7: we have the squad, we have the offense. Let's get

117
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 7: to the playoffs. Let's go far in the playoffs. Let's

118
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:46,279
Speaker 7: go to the super Bowl in first couple of years

119
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 7: of Caleb's career. Wow, this is possible things. Yeah, these

120
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 7: are possible things. I mean, you're looking at Keenan Allen.

121
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 7: He's still a guy that's out there, route running as well,

122
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 7: contested catch as well. DJ Moore is a proven wide

123
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 7: receiver one like four Florio said, who can also stretch

124
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,479
Speaker 7: a field. And then you have Bo Dunes in the mix.

125
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 7: This is a crazy, high power offense that the Bears

126
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 7: fans have probably never seen in their life super.

127
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 5: Bowl Offensively, the Bears have been great defensively all the time.

128
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:18,280
Speaker 6: Yeah, there you go. Yeah, let me clean that up.

129
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 1: I guess I sort of agree with him that it's

130
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 1: sort of overblown because I've been the ones saying that

131
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,599
Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna hit four thousand yards in

132
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 1: his rookie year.

133
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 2: I don't. I think it happens.

134
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: I think he will hit that mark in his career,

135
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,679
Speaker 1: maybe year two, year three. I don't see it happening

136
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,039
Speaker 1: in year one. I wouldn't looked. There have been six

137
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 1: rookie or five rookie quarterbacks, only five rookie quarterbacks to

138
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:44,600
Speaker 1: throw for four thousand yards in a season, right Obviously CJ.

139
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:46,600
Speaker 1: Stroud the most recent to do it. Andrew Luck did

140
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 1: it in twenty twelve. Justin Herbert did it in twenty twenty,

141
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:51,559
Speaker 1: Cam Newton in twenty eleven.

142
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,240
Speaker 6: Jamis Winston. Let's go Winston.

143
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 1: So I'm not saying it's impossible, but I think if

144
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,039
Speaker 1: he goes out and throws for thirty seven thirty eight

145
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 1: hundred yards, I think that's a really good season.

146
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 2: It's not four thousand, it's a win.

147
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 1: I know Bears fans are hoping that Caleb is the

148
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:11,640
Speaker 1: guy that leads him to the Promised Land, that he

149
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 1: takes him to the super Bowl. I will just say

150
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:16,960
Speaker 1: to you, are we thinking that Patrick Mahomes is going

151
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 1: to retire soon? I mean, like, right, I guess if

152
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 1: you're gonna make a Super Bowl right now, the NFC

153
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 1: is probably the place to do it.

154
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, because in the AFC, you've.

155
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 1: Got Mahomes, You've still got Lamar Jackson, You've got Josh Allen.

156
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 1: You know, it looks like you've got CJ. Stroud to

157
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 1: deal with now, Joe Joe Burrow. You've got so many

158
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 1: good quarterbacks to deal with on the AFC side. There

159
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 1: isn't that depth of quarterback on the NFC side, So

160
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 1: maybe that's a better spot. I know we've been hearing

161
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:50,320
Speaker 1: about Caleb for a couple of years. I know he's

162
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 1: supposed to be the next generational thing. It just feels

163
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 1: like this idea that he walks in in year one

164
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 1: and not only matches, but surpasses what CJ. Stroud does

165
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:01,320
Speaker 1: when nobody expected this side of c J. Stroud, it

166
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 1: just true feels like a lot.

167
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:06,120
Speaker 5: What what would in your opinion, then, Marcus, what would

168
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 5: be a disappointing year for Caleb?

169
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 1: I mean, look, I think if he struggles, if he

170
00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 1: if he's just around three thousand yards, I think if

171
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,520
Speaker 1: you're looking at a touchdown interception ratio that is somewhere

172
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,960
Speaker 1: close to one to one, I think I think that's

173
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 1: going to be disappointing. Also, you know, factor in the

174
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,760
Speaker 1: division that he's in, right, the Lions were in the

175
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 1: NFC championship game. Uh, the the Packers made the playoffs,

176
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 1: and they look like they are continuing to improve, you know.

177
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 1: I mean the Vikings, I think are still sort of

178
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 1: in a rebuilding mode. But you've got two pretty solid

179
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 1: playoff teams already in your division. So there's already gonna

180
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:49,440
Speaker 1: be a lot of hurdles for you to get over

181
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 1: throwing the fact that's before you get to you know,

182
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,720
Speaker 1: the Eagles being better, the Cowboy who knows what the

183
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 1: Cowboys are going to do? But you got you have

184
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 1: an NFC West where the forty nine ers are going

185
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 1: to be there, the Rams are going to be very

186
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,680
Speaker 1: good this year. We'll see what the Seahawks and Cardinals

187
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,120
Speaker 1: are going to do there. There may not be it

188
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 1: may not be as top heavy in the NFC, but

189
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 1: there's a lot of depth and competition, and so I

190
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:13,080
Speaker 1: just think you sort of have to so factor that

191
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 1: in and Tiper the expectations.

192
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:18,920
Speaker 2: Especially in year one for Caleb Williams. There's a reason

193
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 2: we keep.

194
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 1: Saying that Jayden Daniels is the fantasy quarterback we want

195
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,680
Speaker 1: from the rookie class, right, Like, if that's the guy

196
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 1: we want in fantasy in year one, how are we

197
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 1: expecting Caleb Williams to just come out and just be

198
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:30,439
Speaker 1: gangbusters this year?

199
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:31,840
Speaker 2: It just I don't know, man.

200
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,719
Speaker 5: I will say, as much as I love Jade and

201
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,400
Speaker 5: Daniels and and I think I do agree, he's the

202
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 5: one I want more in fantasy.

203
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,559
Speaker 4: If any rookie has a CJ. Strout type rookie year,

204
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 4: it's going to be Caleb Williams.

205
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I could buy that the tools.

206
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,200
Speaker 4: I will also say they did win seven games last year.

207
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 2: True.

208
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:53,839
Speaker 1: I will push back though, Lakwan, I'm a little nervous

209
00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:55,560
Speaker 1: about about Keenan Allen this year.

210
00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:57,920
Speaker 2: I don't like saying it.

211
00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 1: I love Keenan Allen, I love him, but older guy,

212
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:02,840
Speaker 1: he's been banged up the last couple of years.

213
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 2: Uh, you know, I don't know.

214
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: I know people have done the research on this, but

215
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:10,920
Speaker 1: veteran wide receivers moving to a new offense that first year, but.

216
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 6: He's in the slot, he's not gonna be doing much.

217
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,839
Speaker 1: He also has more target competition than maybe he's ever

218
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 1: had in his career too. Never never had this, never

219
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 1: had this much depth in a wide.

220
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:23,120
Speaker 7: Name with Dj Moore too. That's kind of my case

221
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,440
Speaker 7: to not really go so heavy on Dj Moore that

222
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,319
Speaker 7: he's never had this target competition his entire career.

223
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,080
Speaker 6: He's always been the only guy I've pushed.

224
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,120
Speaker 2: I'm a I'm like, yeah, we're doing We're drafted it.

225
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:39,160
Speaker 4: I guess.

226
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 5: Ironically, the Bears wide receiver almost likely to draft is

227
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,840
Speaker 5: probably Roman Doonsday because he's far the cheapest.

228
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:46,640
Speaker 2: All right, So we got it all covered between the three.

229
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:48,439
Speaker 2: It's great. Uh.

230
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 1: Speaking of wide receivers, one thing that Eric at Holmes

231
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 1: says is overblown is the panic over the Chargers wide

232
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 1: receivers that we've been sitting here saying that, well, they

233
00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 1: got Jim Harball and Greg Roman, then they drafted an

234
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,320
Speaker 1: offensive lineman and they bring in Gus Edwards and JK.

235
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 2: Dobbins. Then you reminds you, like, look, they're.

236
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 1: Still going to throw the football, yeah, because they've got

237
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert. They do draft, they did draft Lad McConkie.

238
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:12,960
Speaker 1: They're trying to rebuild Quinton Johnston and more of the

239
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 1: image that he was at TCU. So, lakwan, have we

240
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,319
Speaker 1: gone too far freaking out over the Chargers passing game?

241
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,959
Speaker 7: I think at this point, Yeah, just how high the

242
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 7: overblown has gone of, like just completely counting out Justin Herbert.

243
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:30,720
Speaker 7: He's still a great quarterback man and you have some

244
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 7: pieces there that you're hopeful for lat mcconfie comes in

245
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 7: as a.

246
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 6: Reliable target for him.

247
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 7: You still have Joshua Palmer who's shown the flashes in

248
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 7: the past. He hasn't been consistent, but neither has his opportunities.

249
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:43,720
Speaker 7: Like if you look at the games that he played

250
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,840
Speaker 7: last season that he had sixty five percent of the snaps,

251
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:48,640
Speaker 7: he had two one hundred yard games in there, and

252
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 7: he averaged seventy five receiving yards per game. Very small sample,

253
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,959
Speaker 7: but it just shows there's something there. Keenan Allen presence

254
00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,200
Speaker 7: as the alpha wide receiver will be missed, but I

255
00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 7: think overall they should be fine, and they're still going

256
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:01,680
Speaker 7: to be running the ball as heavy as they're gonna be,

257
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:03,400
Speaker 7: and they're still gonna be throwing the ball. Where you

258
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 7: have Joshua Palmer that can be a guy that has

259
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,160
Speaker 7: the previous chemistry with Justin Herbert to be his number one.

260
00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:13,600
Speaker 1: FLOORYA, are you still willing to give Quinton Johnston another shot?

261
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:15,559
Speaker 1: I mean last year was bad, but.

262
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:17,319
Speaker 4: Yeah, last year was bad.

263
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:19,200
Speaker 3: Uh It.

264
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 5: He's not someone that I'm gonna like want on every

265
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,840
Speaker 5: one of my teams. But I haven't, in like my

266
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:28,000
Speaker 5: early best ball drafts, taken a shot or two on

267
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:31,920
Speaker 5: him because I was saying a lot of what the

268
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 5: Chargers came out like. I just never felt like he

269
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 5: was used in a way that fits his skill set.

270
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,240
Speaker 5: I think everyone see and Marcus. When we saw him

271
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,200
Speaker 5: in person at training camp last year, we were like,

272
00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:47,840
Speaker 5: oh my goddess, like imagine him. But then you watch

273
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:50,520
Speaker 5: the tape and you're like, he doesn't play that way.

274
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:51,560
Speaker 4: He's a yat guy.

275
00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:55,400
Speaker 5: But I believe in Lad McConkie as well. Like I

276
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:59,360
Speaker 5: comp him to Tyler Lockett. He's an excellent separator. I

277
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,840
Speaker 5: think he can be like long term, be there one

278
00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:04,600
Speaker 5: and Quentin Johnson could be there too, even though when

279
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:06,600
Speaker 5: you look at them you probably think it would be

280
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,839
Speaker 5: the other way around. But yeah, I expect a lot

281
00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 5: of running from this team, so I'm not I agree.

282
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 5: I think the wide receiver room is being overblown. One

283
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 5: thing I wanted to ask you guys, and I will say,

284
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,000
Speaker 5: like when I used to I kept saying on the show,

285
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:22,400
Speaker 5: like I'm fading justin Herbert.

286
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 4: But now you see he's going outside the top fifteen

287
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 4: quarterbacks in some drafts.

288
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 5: And I'm taking a shot on him then, because I

289
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 5: keep thinking what if, And this is what I wanted

290
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:34,679
Speaker 5: to ask you guys, like what if they let him

291
00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:38,319
Speaker 5: run more? Because you look at at the coaching staffs

292
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 5: and their history with running quarterbacks Colin Kaepernick, Tara Taylor,

293
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:45,920
Speaker 5: Lamar Jackson for Greg Roman, They've always had a quarterback

294
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:48,439
Speaker 5: that runs Herbert Ken run.

295
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:50,680
Speaker 4: He just wasn't asked to do so a whole bunch

296
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 4: with the previous regime.

297
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 2: Maybe a little bit more, I don't.

298
00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:57,719
Speaker 1: I guess they have some designed runs for him, right,

299
00:13:57,760 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 1: Like he's never gonna be the guy I think that

300
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 1: just takes off and breaks out, right, We're not gonna

301
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 1: think of him as Lamar or you know, Jaden Daniels

302
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:08,760
Speaker 1: or Anthony Richardson. Maybe they design a few more runs

303
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:10,200
Speaker 1: for him.

304
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:13,320
Speaker 2: I don't know, really, I don't know. Do you think

305
00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:15,560
Speaker 2: they use him near the goal line more importantly, I guess.

306
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 7: Oh god, no, no, I keep him away from the

307
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 7: goal line, it's going to get banged up again. I

308
00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:21,720
Speaker 7: mean the ribs man that that would be my biggest

309
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 7: fear if they start getting him to run more. I

310
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 7: just think him as a pocket passer, as a as

311
00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:29,920
Speaker 7: a quarterback that has the great decision making and makes

312
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 7: the right choices, and if you have this offense of

313
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:36,480
Speaker 7: what it is, I think getting him outside the top

314
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 7: fifteen is kind of a steal because he's still part

315
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 7: of that five thousand yard club. He's still a guy

316
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 7: that can stretch the field. He's one of those great

317
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 7: quarterbacks that we have have to keep in conversation with.

318
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 7: So I'm taking all justin Herbert later if I can.

319
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:51,320
Speaker 7: If I'm building that.

320
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:54,720
Speaker 1: Way, yeah, no, I mean at that price, absolutely, that's

321
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 1: a sweet price.

322
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 4: I definitely overblown with the running thing.

323
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm I'm hoping for like four to five hundred

324
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:04,920
Speaker 5: rushing yards because he's always been over two and a.

325
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:07,560
Speaker 4: Three touchdown guy pretty much every year in his career.

326
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:08,760
Speaker 4: So we get that up to like.

327
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 5: Four hundred yards and five rushing touchdowns, and I think

328
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 5: he makes up for all the passing loss.

329
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, that would be interesting. We'll take a week break,

330
00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 1: come back. We'll dive into more of these offseason storylines

331
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:21,120
Speaker 1: in just a bit. Here on the NFL Fantasy Football podcast,

332
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:28,720
Speaker 1: Eric at Home on NFL dot Com has a story

333
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,680
Speaker 1: about five offseason storylines that are overblown, five that deserve

334
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:34,680
Speaker 1: more attention. We talked about a couple that were overblown.

335
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,960
Speaker 1: Let's talk about a couple that he thinks deserve more attention.

336
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:41,760
Speaker 1: One he talked about with the quarterback situation for the Giants.

337
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:43,280
Speaker 1: And I bring this one up because we had Judy

338
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 1: Batista on last week and we sort of asked her

339
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 1: about this Daniel Jones versus Drew Locke situation, and her

340
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 1: suggestion was that they really are in on Daniel Jones.

341
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:57,400
Speaker 1: They still believe in him. Locke is there sort of

342
00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:01,720
Speaker 1: as insurance. Eric Edenholman suggests that maybe there's more to

343
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 1: this competition than people are sort of letting on. So, Flora,

344
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 1: I will start with you, should we be paying more

345
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 1: attention to the QB competition in New York?

346
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 5: I think so, although I don't think there's a ton

347
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 5: of competition for who starts Week one, Like I am

348
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:21,160
Speaker 5: a firm believer that I think the Giants, because of

349
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 5: how invested they are into him and because of what

350
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,480
Speaker 5: they got out of him two seasons ago, are going

351
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 5: to give Daniel Jones at least another opportunity, and his

352
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 5: play will determine how long that will last. But if

353
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 5: he struggles and it looks like it did last season,

354
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:40,160
Speaker 5: I think Drew Locke was brought here to kind of

355
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 5: potentially take over in the second half if things go

356
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:48,120
Speaker 5: wrong for Daniel Jones. But I also kind of think

357
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:51,040
Speaker 5: Daniel Jones is being overlooked in fantasy a little bit.

358
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:54,000
Speaker 5: Like I understand how awful last year was and that

359
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:57,720
Speaker 5: he's coming off the acl tair, but just a season

360
00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:00,160
Speaker 5: before that, he was a top ten fantasy quarterback. Now

361
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 5: he's going like outside the top twenty five. So to me,

362
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:07,560
Speaker 5: I I'm not saying I'm in on Daniel Jones, but

363
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 5: I think he's undervalued a little bit.

364
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:12,280
Speaker 1: I mean, so I'll ask you, Lakwa. I mean, right,

365
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:16,680
Speaker 1: we're not really drafting Daniel Jones. But if you are drafting,

366
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 1: say Melik Neighbors, or if you decide you want to

367
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,159
Speaker 1: maybe take a swing at one Dale Robinson, do you

368
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:24,920
Speaker 1: have a preference of who you'd like to see a quarterback.

369
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:31,960
Speaker 7: Man, it probably would be Daniel Jones. But honestly, it's

370
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:35,639
Speaker 7: like it's very close because his leash is very short.

371
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 7: He could be pulled week two, week three if he's

372
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:40,440
Speaker 7: still struggling, because I think you bring in a guy

373
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:42,720
Speaker 7: like Drew Locke because he has put on tape. He

374
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 7: could step in for that game for Gino Smith. He

375
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:47,400
Speaker 7: can go out there and put some points on the board.

376
00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:50,440
Speaker 7: So I feel as though, like it's a nasty situation

377
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:52,440
Speaker 7: if you're looking to invest in any Giants.

378
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,399
Speaker 6: Wide receivers because the quarterback play, it's.

379
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 7: Gonna matter a ton, But like we should kind of

380
00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 7: just look at Daniel Jones for what he is. He does,

381
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,199
Speaker 7: still had the rushing upside. Two seasons ago, he was

382
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,359
Speaker 7: top ten. I just feel as though it's not really

383
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:09,080
Speaker 7: going to be like a large leash that he'll have.

384
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:13,439
Speaker 7: So honestly, I'm not really looking into either one of

385
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,639
Speaker 7: these guys for fantasy or the wide receivers.

386
00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:18,720
Speaker 2: I mean, like I've drafted the Leak neighbors a few times.

387
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 1: I will say that I've taken some end of draft

388
00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:25,359
Speaker 1: I mean like round seventeen eighteen dart throws at Jalen

389
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 1: Hyatt's Yeah, and but I'm not doing it based on

390
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,120
Speaker 1: who I think the quarterback is gonna be. I'm doing

391
00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 1: it based on because I think these guys are talented

392
00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 1: or their level of talent and the fact that they

393
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,280
Speaker 1: can potentially earn targets in certain situations.

394
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:40,400
Speaker 2: That's kind of it.

395
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:45,760
Speaker 5: That's I will say. I think Drew Locke is purely.

396
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:46,440
Speaker 4: Running on vibes.

397
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:49,160
Speaker 5: Like I know, it was a small sample size last year,

398
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,800
Speaker 5: but you look at his numbers and he's the same

399
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:54,639
Speaker 5: quarterback he's always been. But when he's out there, it

400
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:58,280
Speaker 5: looks fun and and he's got all this confidence and stuff,

401
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:00,520
Speaker 5: but at the end of the day, he's still.

402
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:01,080
Speaker 6: Kind of Drew lock.

403
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 2: Yeah.

404
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:06,520
Speaker 1: I think that's that's probably lock it up last one here?

405
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:10,000
Speaker 1: Uh That that Eric ed Holme thinks deserves more attention

406
00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson's shoulder, and he brings it up because Richardson

407
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:18,199
Speaker 1: talked about having a little bit of shoulder soreness. Now

408
00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:21,360
Speaker 1: he says it's not a big deal, but he said

409
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:23,399
Speaker 1: it set off some alarm bells for him that you

410
00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:27,200
Speaker 1: talk about quarterbacks and shoulder soreness. That is something that's

411
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,159
Speaker 1: a little bit of a red flag, especially for a

412
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:31,399
Speaker 1: guy who had surgery in the offseason. That is what

413
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 1: he injured, that that put him down for the year

414
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 1: last year. I mean, Flora, we saw the videos, the

415
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,399
Speaker 1: photos of him. He's put on weight, he's gotten bigger.

416
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,119
Speaker 1: We've seen videos of him throwing fantasy. Twitter has already

417
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:47,240
Speaker 1: you know, had its huge, like big, you know, sigh

418
00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:51,159
Speaker 1: of relief and her big celebration. Should maybe we be

419
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:54,560
Speaker 1: listening to the shoulder soreness complaints a little bit about

420
00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:55,480
Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson.

421
00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 5: If we're hearing about it in July and August, when

422
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:03,159
Speaker 5: when training camp in preseason and stuff is going on, Yeah,

423
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,840
Speaker 5: if we hear about it impacting his ability to make

424
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 5: certain throws, or or it hurts on the long anything

425
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 5: like that, I will one hundred percent take notice too.

426
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:17,240
Speaker 5: A player working their way back from injury, first time,

427
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:20,879
Speaker 5: really ramping up in June dealing with some soreness, to me,

428
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,080
Speaker 5: it's kind of to be expected. It's like when a

429
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:26,359
Speaker 5: pitcher is working their way back from an arm injury

430
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:28,120
Speaker 5: and they throw and then it's like, all right, yeah,

431
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:29,960
Speaker 5: there's a little fatigue. We're gonna take a week off

432
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:33,480
Speaker 5: and then they're back and they're on their throwing program. Like, yeah,

433
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:36,680
Speaker 5: if this is still an issue when he's supposed to

434
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 5: be out there and if we hear it impacts him

435
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:41,879
Speaker 5: at all, I'll change my mind. But right now, a

436
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,600
Speaker 5: day off in June, I'm not I don't think that's

437
00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 5: a big.

438
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:49,719
Speaker 1: Deal, are you. I'm sure you are drafting him, lakwan.

439
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 1: I mean, how high are you willing to draft him?

440
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:53,280
Speaker 1: And you're drafting him as a top five, top six

441
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,959
Speaker 1: quarterback and will this change anything?

442
00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:59,159
Speaker 7: I'm drafting them as like a top seven quarterback. I

443
00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:01,680
Speaker 7: feel as though, like it's good to hear it now,

444
00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:05,320
Speaker 7: Like there's some soreness in the shoulder which he's recovering

445
00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:07,400
Speaker 7: from rehab, I mean gained the way he's just been

446
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:09,879
Speaker 7: sitting on the couch, you know, like reading plays and

447
00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 7: reading the playbook and stuff like that. But hopefully that's

448
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:15,240
Speaker 7: just him shedding some rust off. But we're hearing about

449
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:16,840
Speaker 7: it now, like it would be in the back of

450
00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:18,800
Speaker 7: my mind. But once we start getting closer to the

451
00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,800
Speaker 7: draft day and August and stuff like that, it will

452
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:23,919
Speaker 7: be in my attention, you know, Like, all right now,

453
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:25,560
Speaker 7: I got to pull back a little bit because this

454
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,479
Speaker 7: dude's been dealing with soreness or dealing whatever he's been

455
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,120
Speaker 7: dealing with for the last couple of months. But I'm

456
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:35,760
Speaker 7: still in on Anthony Richardson today as of today in June.

457
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:38,119
Speaker 1: I would say, you know, it does give me a

458
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:41,480
Speaker 1: little bit of pause, But I think the the thing

459
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:44,160
Speaker 1: that doesn't concern me so much is that generally we're

460
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:47,600
Speaker 1: not drafting him for the passing ability. We hope it

461
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:49,960
Speaker 1: comes together. We hope, I mean, we hope that becomes

462
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:52,280
Speaker 1: a thing, right, We hope he improves there because that's

463
00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:55,280
Speaker 1: gonna certainly, you know, raise his ceiling. It's gonna you know,

464
00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:59,280
Speaker 1: improve his stock overall. That's not the reason we're drafting him. No,

465
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:01,720
Speaker 1: drafting him because of his ability to run, because of

466
00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:03,800
Speaker 1: what he can do at the goal line and that

467
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:04,400
Speaker 1: sort of thing.

468
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 2: So you know, I get it.

469
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,199
Speaker 1: I understand reason to sort of you know, look at

470
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,200
Speaker 1: that a second time, but it's not stopping me from

471
00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:14,200
Speaker 1: drafting him where I have been, especially in Best Ball.

472
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:17,160
Speaker 5: One thing on Richardson real quick, we don't hear about

473
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:17,800
Speaker 5: it a lot.

474
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,080
Speaker 4: But like Shane Styken was part of the brain trust

475
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:21,320
Speaker 4: that invented the.

476
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:25,160
Speaker 5: Toush push and Anthony Richardson is every bit as capable

477
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:26,879
Speaker 5: of completing that as Jayleen.

478
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:31,240
Speaker 1: Don't don't say that out loud, because anybody who's drafting

479
00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:33,400
Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor does not need.

480
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:35,280
Speaker 2: You don't.

481
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:37,320
Speaker 1: You don't need Jonathan Tailor getting down to the one

482
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:41,359
Speaker 1: and then they just decide to toush push. Anthony richards

483
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:45,000
Speaker 1: called the Brotherly Shove in Indianapolis, like, I don't know

484
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 1: what they would call it.

485
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 6: Oh man, now I gotta think of that. It's kind

486
00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:48,199
Speaker 6: of bother me.

487
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:53,680
Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm gonna I'm gonna try to come

488
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:55,320
Speaker 2: up with some things. But what's like a break first,

489
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:56,720
Speaker 2: and I can come up with some things. Maybe during

490
00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 2: the break we'll come back.

491
00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:01,560
Speaker 1: We'll talk about the Scott FISHBOWLT coming up very soon.

492
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:03,640
Speaker 1: We'll talk about some draft strategies for that one. That's

493
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:11,440
Speaker 1: next on the NFL Fantasy Football Podcast, It is time

494
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 1: to Drive your Draft, presented by the all new hybrid

495
00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:18,359
Speaker 1: Toyota Camery figured this week, the way to talk about

496
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:22,119
Speaker 1: driving your draft is to focus on a specific draft,

497
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:26,480
Speaker 1: that being the Scott Fish Bowl, the fourteenth edition of

498
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,679
Speaker 1: the Scott Fish Bowl. And of course every year there

499
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 1: are some new little tweaks and when it comes to

500
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:37,119
Speaker 1: the scoring, and that should impact how you draft your team.

501
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:40,200
Speaker 1: So some of the highlights of the scoring system for

502
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:42,280
Speaker 1: those of you who are fortunate enough to participate. And

503
00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:44,920
Speaker 1: I know there are still some some tournaments going on

504
00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:50,280
Speaker 1: for some wildcard spots as well for future I guess

505
00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:52,320
Speaker 1: for futures FBS, right, I think is what it is.

506
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:56,920
Speaker 1: It is a super flex tournament, which I you know, look,

507
00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:58,240
Speaker 1: I will admit there have been a couple of times

508
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:00,000
Speaker 1: where I have just spaced on it and I'm like,

509
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:01,320
Speaker 1: why are all these quarterbacks gone?

510
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:02,240
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, crap.

511
00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:07,000
Speaker 1: So it's a super plex league's a night end premium,

512
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:08,960
Speaker 1: so they get one and a half points per reception,

513
00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:11,840
Speaker 1: but it is lower for quarterbacks and running backs, just

514
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:12,560
Speaker 1: a half.

515
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:14,800
Speaker 2: Point ppr for those players.

516
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:17,440
Speaker 1: I guess it doesn't really matter so much for quarterbacks

517
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:19,040
Speaker 1: because they're generally not catching the football.

518
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:21,720
Speaker 2: But you never know. I you take some hills of

519
00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:22,439
Speaker 2: the world out.

520
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:24,720
Speaker 6: There, Oh, that's why it's there.

521
00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:28,480
Speaker 1: That's exactly why it's there. And then kickers get involved

522
00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:31,159
Speaker 1: here in an interesting way. Three point three points for

523
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,680
Speaker 1: every extra point, and then decimal bonus is for field goal.

524
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:36,840
Speaker 1: So for instance, a thirty seven yard field goal is

525
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:39,840
Speaker 1: three point seven points. A twenty four yarder is two

526
00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:41,879
Speaker 1: point four points. So if you have a kicker that

527
00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 1: kicks a lot of long field goals forty and fifty yarders,

528
00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 1: then potentially that is an advantage for you there. So

529
00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:53,119
Speaker 1: first off, Lakwan, what is your strategy for drafting? You

530
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:56,400
Speaker 1: have a particular strategy when you approach the scott Fish Bowl.

531
00:24:57,320 --> 00:24:58,879
Speaker 7: I have to do more drafts, but I did a

532
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,440
Speaker 7: mock just the other day and like, I want to

533
00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 7: get on these mobile quarterbacks like asap, because they were

534
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:06,840
Speaker 7: flying off the board and it's like, you want your

535
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 7: Josh Allens, you want your Jalen Hurts, and you want

536
00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 7: your Colin Murrays and et cetera.

537
00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 6: Et cetera.

538
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:14,040
Speaker 7: Because you're only getting one point for fifty yards in

539
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:16,760
Speaker 7: the passing yards of the Scorge system, so you kind

540
00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 7: of want a quarterback that can double dip because man,

541
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,359
Speaker 7: you're you're gonna be getting the extra little bonus points

542
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:25,600
Speaker 7: from the running as well for each yard. So I think,

543
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:27,879
Speaker 7: you know, I want to lock up the mobile quarterbacks

544
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:30,159
Speaker 7: early and then hit on the tight ends because that

545
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:32,480
Speaker 7: premium is going to be awesome because they get a

546
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,280
Speaker 7: little extra bonus as well for those first downs. So

547
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:37,520
Speaker 7: you want to target a tight end that's going to

548
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:40,160
Speaker 7: be relied on that very crucial moment and a guy

549
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:42,720
Speaker 7: that's going to be obviously in the tight end friendly offense.

550
00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:45,600
Speaker 7: So you want your Mark Andrews, you want your you know,

551
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 7: Sam Laporti's and Travis Kelce's.

552
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 1: You talk about the Travis Kelces the Sam Report. Is

553
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:54,479
Speaker 1: there also another feature? There is points per first down too.

554
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:57,560
Speaker 1: You do get a point per first down. I mean, Florida,

555
00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 1: could we see maybe a couple of tight ends sneak

556
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:02,760
Speaker 1: into the first rounds in these drafts?

557
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:06,480
Speaker 5: I definitely think you could. I'll never be the one

558
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:10,840
Speaker 5: doing it in the super Flex. My strategy in super

559
00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,400
Speaker 5: Flex is almost always the same. I'm going to grab

560
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:15,479
Speaker 5: a quarterback in first in the first round, and then

561
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:18,560
Speaker 5: I'll probably take another quarterback or two, four or five

562
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,720
Speaker 5: rounds later something like that. I'm not the typically every

563
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:25,280
Speaker 5: draft is different, but I'm typically not the double dippering

564
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 5: quarterback guy. And I get the tight end premium being

565
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:33,840
Speaker 5: so valuable, but it's only a half a point difference

566
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:37,200
Speaker 5: between a wide receiver and a tight end, and those

567
00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:40,880
Speaker 5: elite wide receivers are going to rack up. In my opinion,

568
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:43,879
Speaker 5: I think a lot more catches and yards than a

569
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:47,280
Speaker 5: lot of the elite tight ends like Sam Reporter didn't

570
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:49,400
Speaker 5: even have nine hundred yards last year, whereas I could

571
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 5: get someone like AJ Brown or something like that who's

572
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:56,439
Speaker 5: routinely goes for fourteen hundreds. So and in this league,

573
00:26:57,040 --> 00:27:00,000
Speaker 5: you you have six flex spots, so I could start

574
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,919
Speaker 5: up to as many as seven wide receivers. So my

575
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:07,080
Speaker 5: opinion is still pound wide receiver early. Now. If I

576
00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:09,439
Speaker 5: feel if tight end is a good value, I'm not

577
00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:10,880
Speaker 5: gonna shy away from taking them.

578
00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:13,879
Speaker 4: Typically I'll punch on running back in scott Fishbelt.

579
00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:17,880
Speaker 5: But wide receiver is still, in my opinion, my most

580
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:19,639
Speaker 5: important emphasis in the early rounds.

581
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:22,679
Speaker 1: So because you do get that bonus for tight end catches,

582
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:26,440
Speaker 1: and because it's still a full point for wide receiver catches,

583
00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:29,560
Speaker 1: obviously it changes sort of the way guys go off

584
00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:30,000
Speaker 1: the board.

585
00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:32,760
Speaker 2: Lukwan, could we.

586
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:34,720
Speaker 1: See Christian McCaffrey fall out of the first round in

587
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:37,160
Speaker 1: some of these drafts, not in the.

588
00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:39,320
Speaker 6: Mack I did yesterday. He actually went in the first

589
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 6: five or six picks.

590
00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:43,000
Speaker 7: Because you're you're getting the dude that's obviously still be

591
00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:45,800
Speaker 7: the alpha of his team where he's the best player

592
00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:48,280
Speaker 7: on that roster. You had twenty one touchdowns, Like, he's

593
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 7: going to find the end zone a ton, So it's like,

594
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:53,200
Speaker 7: no way, I'm gonna bounce off of that bonus as well,

595
00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:55,359
Speaker 7: where you're getting the running backs. I think it's zero

596
00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:58,920
Speaker 7: point two five per rushing attempt. He's getting all the carries,

597
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:01,159
Speaker 7: so I want all all those little extra points in

598
00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:03,840
Speaker 7: the guy that we know it's a solid one on one.

599
00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:07,359
Speaker 7: So yeah, after the while, you know, once the mobile

600
00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 7: quarterbacks get out of the way, the Josh Allens of

601
00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:11,600
Speaker 7: the world, he's probably gonna be sitting there in the

602
00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:13,520
Speaker 7: first five to six picks.

603
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 1: Uh. The other thing that I think is interesting here

604
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,280
Speaker 1: and Florya, you talk about these six flex spots. Now,

605
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:21,399
Speaker 1: if you're playing on sleeper, there are different platforms you

606
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:23,159
Speaker 1: can play on. If you are playing on sleeper, you

607
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:27,440
Speaker 1: are forced to draft a kicker because you cannot flex

608
00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:27,879
Speaker 1: a kicker.

609
00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:29,080
Speaker 2: It is one of the spots there.

610
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,479
Speaker 1: But I'll say this, I mean, in general, is it

611
00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:34,240
Speaker 1: worth drafting a kicker if you're getting to the later rounds?

612
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:37,679
Speaker 2: Right? And sure, you can start up to seven wide receivers.

613
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,240
Speaker 1: But I think I can make an argument that I

614
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:46,840
Speaker 1: would rather have, say, and Evan McPherson over a Jalen

615
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,080
Speaker 1: Hyatt or something like that. I mean, at some point,

616
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:51,280
Speaker 1: does it make sense to go draft a kicker later.

617
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:57,040
Speaker 5: In these you heard Kelly groening because she hates kickers. Oh,

618
00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:00,120
Speaker 5: I think it gets to a point where yes, like

619
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 5: like that's a good like, yeah, the kicker is going

620
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 5: to outscore the wide receiver at that point. But I

621
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 5: never drafted kicker because scott Fishbowl is so deep, and

622
00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:13,320
Speaker 5: we joke about it all the time, Marcus, Like, the

623
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:16,760
Speaker 5: waiver wire is almost non existent in that league. You're

624
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:20,600
Speaker 5: not typically going to find breakout wide receivers or running

625
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:22,880
Speaker 5: backs on the waiver wire. You know what you still

626
00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 5: will find on.

627
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 4: The waiver wire kickers.

628
00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:28,760
Speaker 5: So because of that, I'm using all of my draft

629
00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 5: spots on upside receivers, running backs, tight ends, quarterbacks, whatever

630
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:37,360
Speaker 5: it might be. And then in season, I'm okay, if

631
00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:39,080
Speaker 5: whichever one doesn't hit, I'm okay.

632
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:39,600
Speaker 4: Dropping for now.

633
00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:41,560
Speaker 5: I'm not gonna have one of the top kickers, but

634
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 5: I'll still have a useful kicker that'll get me some

635
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 5: points and there's always a couple of kickers that end

636
00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:50,960
Speaker 5: up coming out of nowhere or whatever the case may be,

637
00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:54,920
Speaker 5: so I think it's worth rostering them. I just don't

638
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:58,760
Speaker 5: love using a valuable draft spot because once the draft

639
00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:00,840
Speaker 5: is over, it's so much harder her in this league

640
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 5: that's so deep to find talent.

641
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:03,640
Speaker 6: On the waiver wire.

642
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:08,200
Speaker 1: I might be remembering this wrong. Didn't Kate Maju draft

643
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 1: like Justin Tucker first last year? I feel like I

644
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:14,440
Speaker 1: know Kate did something a little bit, and like, krudos

645
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:16,920
Speaker 1: to her, because yeah, and Scott Fish made the point.

646
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:19,640
Speaker 1: They're like, it's really hard to win this tournament, right, yes,

647
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:22,720
Speaker 1: so why not do something fun that's gonna be memorable.

648
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:25,480
Speaker 1: I want to say it was a kicker, but I

649
00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:27,080
Speaker 1: know she did something with her first pick with the

650
00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:29,080
Speaker 1: one dot oh one last year that was just like

651
00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:30,240
Speaker 1: what yo.

652
00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:32,640
Speaker 2: And then when you gotta.

653
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:34,120
Speaker 1: Sat it, you said you sat back, You're like, Okay,

654
00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 1: this is just fun, right, It's just just somebody having

655
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:38,480
Speaker 1: fun with the situation.

656
00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:39,280
Speaker 4: The draft is the.

657
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:41,320
Speaker 5: Best part of it, like the week tweeting out your

658
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,760
Speaker 5: picks and stuff like that, and then it's like, all right,

659
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 5: that was fun. I'll see you guys next year because

660
00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:46,920
Speaker 5: I know I'm not winning this thing.

661
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:48,600
Speaker 1: Because I'm probably not gonna win this thing. I I

662
00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 1: don't know about you guys, Like I have the same

663
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:52,680
Speaker 1: feeling every year. It's like I draft this team and

664
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,160
Speaker 1: I feel okay about it, and then when we get

665
00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:57,840
Speaker 1: to set lineups in like late August or September or whatever,

666
00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 1: I look back and I'm like, what was I doing? Yeah,

667
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 1: what was I thinking about when I drafted this team?

668
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:05,640
Speaker 2: That happens.

669
00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:07,080
Speaker 6: That was me last year as well.

670
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 7: Like I can literally tell in the draft where I

671
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:12,120
Speaker 7: started drinking and I stopped caring and started won the

672
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:15,040
Speaker 7: socialize with everybody because it was that trophy smack HQ

673
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,000
Speaker 7: for the LA Live Draft.

674
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:18,480
Speaker 6: So it was kind of like I was just having

675
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:19,760
Speaker 6: fun man at that point.

676
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:22,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know the live drafts were happening around the

677
00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:24,680
Speaker 1: country as well. I'm not going to be able to

678
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:27,800
Speaker 1: participate in the LA one, which isn't this weekend.

679
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:28,600
Speaker 2: It's coming up.

680
00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:34,080
Speaker 6: Oh wait soon, it's not this weekend, Okay, it was.

681
00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:37,760
Speaker 4: I only joined yesterday. I joined the league and that

682
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:38,520
Speaker 4: one was full.

683
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:42,640
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, So anyway, I know the Drive Draft

684
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:44,360
Speaker 1: is coming up. I think I'm not available for it,

685
00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:45,800
Speaker 1: so I won't be there. But Lakwan, I know you

686
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,840
Speaker 1: were there last year. Uh the good photos photos looked

687
00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:50,480
Speaker 1: like they were a lot of fun. One thing I

688
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 1: do have to ask you about the LQ because you've

689
00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 1: talked about your DST plus theory in terms of like

690
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:58,400
Speaker 1: scoring defenses and like the way the new kickoff rules work.

691
00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:01,320
Speaker 1: One of the rules in the Scott Fish Bowl is

692
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:03,960
Speaker 1: that you get ten points for a sick or a

693
00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:05,080
Speaker 1: punt return.

694
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:07,800
Speaker 2: Now that belongs to the individual player.

695
00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 6: There are no.

696
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 1: DSTs that you're drafting here. But does the methodology does

697
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:16,320
Speaker 1: your thought process sort of work similarly here in terms

698
00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:18,640
Speaker 1: of like the guys and the teams that you're targeting there.

699
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:22,160
Speaker 7: Yes, So like there's guys like Marvin Mems, Damien Pierce

700
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 7: or Shishahi. These are double dipping opportunities for you where

701
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:28,160
Speaker 7: they were very strong in that department and special teams,

702
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:30,680
Speaker 7: and like I love getting guys that are kind of

703
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:32,880
Speaker 7: like off to the side for guy, and like of Damien

704
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,520
Speaker 7: Pierce and a Marvin Mems because man, these guys have

705
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:39,160
Speaker 7: shown naked return a touchdown back in the old ages

706
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:41,960
Speaker 7: of what the kick return format was. Now we're getting

707
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:45,720
Speaker 7: into this hybrid area of where, like man, it's not easier,

708
00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:48,840
Speaker 7: but I think you will see a lot more touchdowns

709
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:51,200
Speaker 7: out of this format, just based on how we've seen

710
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:54,320
Speaker 7: it displayed in other leagues. And like this hybrid man,

711
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:57,600
Speaker 7: it's going to make kickoffs a lot more exciting. And

712
00:32:57,640 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 7: if I can get a guy like Rashi Shihid that

713
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:02,720
Speaker 7: we're hoping for this breakout season, ten points for a

714
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:04,080
Speaker 7: kick return man.

715
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:04,760
Speaker 6: That is huge.

716
00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 7: For a guy like Rashidi sh that's gonna get some

717
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:10,560
Speaker 7: offensive opportunity and he's kind of looking like the number

718
00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:13,440
Speaker 7: two for the Saint. So I love the target guys

719
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:13,800
Speaker 7: like that.

720
00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:14,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would.

721
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 1: I would be interested to see as these drafts go along,

722
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:20,880
Speaker 1: how many of these late round picks are guys that

723
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:22,280
Speaker 1: have potential to run.

724
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,320
Speaker 7: Back if you're Gifton and stuff like that. I think

725
00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:27,000
Speaker 7: he led in return yards last year and it's like

726
00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:29,320
Speaker 7: these are very strong players that.

727
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:31,480
Speaker 6: Have the ability to take it to the house.

728
00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:34,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, especially in this new world, with this this new

729
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,720
Speaker 1: kickoff format, how many guys are maybe gonna find some

730
00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 1: new life on fantasy rosters especially let's go.

731
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:41,160
Speaker 6: I'm excited.

732
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 7: I'm really excited like this, Like I finally put the

733
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:47,120
Speaker 7: vote in for my home league, and they're like, all right, fine,

734
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:49,480
Speaker 7: because I'm not the commission anymore, so I can't just

735
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:50,640
Speaker 7: bully the rules anymore.

736
00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:53,000
Speaker 6: But they were like, all right, we'll do it. It sounds fun.

737
00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:56,000
Speaker 2: Commission's most thankless job in fans.

738
00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:59,040
Speaker 6: Yea, oh, I'm done. I'm no more leagues. I don't

739
00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:00,280
Speaker 6: commission on it.

740
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:02,200
Speaker 1: Never had any interest in doing it, never want to

741
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:04,360
Speaker 1: do it. Shout out to the people who like it,

742
00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:05,960
Speaker 1: who are willing to take on that risk.

743
00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:08,200
Speaker 6: I'm not that person.

744
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:10,840

Speaker 4: I'm out to Snow.

752
00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:35,080
Speaker 5: I quote that movie from London to the point where

753
00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:35,880
Speaker 5: people don't.

754
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:36,839

Speaker 2: in can quote.

757
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:43,480
Speaker 1: It's funny because like all the snow end getting a

758
00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:45,560
Speaker 1: spin off and get him to the Greek.

759
00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:48,480
Speaker 4: Which is all one of the funniest spin off movies ever.

760
00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:50,840
Speaker 2: I would say, when lifehand you with Jeffrey Stroke the

761
00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:51,479
Speaker 2: Furry Wall.

762
00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:54,440
Speaker 1: Uh. Speaking of which, we're gonna be watching back Draft

763
00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:57,760
Speaker 1: for the the cheat sheet in honor of Donald Donald

764
00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:00,719
Speaker 1: Sutherland also Donald Sterling in personal.

765
00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:03,120
Speaker 4: Show out about him too.

766
00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:04,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I haven't watched yet, anything to go check that.

767
00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:06,120
Speaker 2: It must be kind of interesting.

768
00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:09,120
Speaker 1: But in honor of Donald Sutherland's passing one of the

769
00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 1: roles that I remember him most in uh in the

770
00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:13,919
Speaker 1: movie Backdraft, So that'll be part of the cheat cheat

771
00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:16,040
Speaker 1: plus some other nonsense that I'm sure we'll find across

772
00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:16,799
Speaker 1: the interwebs.

773
00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:19,080
Speaker 2: Uh, that will be involved as well.

774
00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:21,680
Speaker 1: But that'll do it for this edition of the NFL

775
00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:24,200
