Speaker 1: down to four people today, we're missing one of our

10
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:51,760
Speaker 1: regular teammates, Alex Gelher. I believe, if I believe his

11
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 1: Twitter timeline, that he is back in the great state

12
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 1: of Wisconsin. In my correct and saying that right now,

13
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 1: I feel he takes a lot of vacations for a

14
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:06,480
Speaker 1: guy that now. Yeah, here's the I think in his defense,

15
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:09,600
Speaker 1: he is back for his League of Record draft, which

16
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: is kind of a friends and family sort of thing.

17
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,479
Speaker 1: I believe they are locking themselves in a basement with

18
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 1: a keg of oats, sodas and us and they are

19
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 1: going to they're gonna just they're gonna just draft their

20
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 1: butts on Dad. Dad is gone, guys, That's gone. Podcast

21
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,000
Speaker 1: is lit now. Gil Hart also said it's the last

22
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:36,279
Speaker 1: time he gets to hug his mother before the season starts.

23
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:39,959
Speaker 1: And he has made that joke like five hundred times,

24
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 1: and I think I've heard it five hundred I enjoyed

25
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:45,960
Speaker 1: that well, So, I mean, the NFL Fantasy crew is

26
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 1: certainly not afraid of beating a joke to death. Uh

27
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 1: In the whiz kid from Wisconsin. Instead, we have the Irishman,

Speaker 1: the fact that you know you and you got a

39
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:28,400

Speaker 1: all figure out. I I appreciate that esoteric. What a

43
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:40,360
Speaker 1: great call. I love the magical Beard fantasy man Franciscovich.

Speaker 1: for me. I was. I was here. We have the

48
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 1: the media sales guys there. You put in a solid

49
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 1: fifteen hour day. They well, because the media sales team

50
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,080
Speaker 1: always does a big fantasy league for a lot of

51
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 1: their clients, and so they asked some of us kind

52
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 1: of come and be draft consultants and stuff. So I

53
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 1: was there, you know, kind of sort of working and

54
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:06,800

55
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,359
Speaker 1: also conducting a draft from my league of records, so

56
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 1: I would so I was trying to be social and

57
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 1: at the same time like duck to the back of

92
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,040
Speaker 1: feature of game Pass is the ability to go back

93
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,040
Speaker 1: and watch the condensed games where you can watch an

94
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 1: entire NFL game in about half an hour, and it's

95
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 1: great especially for catching up maybe on a game you

96
00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,280
Speaker 1: didn't get to see, or scouting certain players. I know

97
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 1: that last year during my off days or on Mondays

98
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:34,080
Speaker 1: or whatever, I would sit and catch up on things

99
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:35,720
Speaker 1: I didn't necessarily get to see a lot of or

100
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,159
Speaker 1: if they're player I wanted to watch it is. It's

Speaker 1: perfect for that. You can watch everything it It's totally

102
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 1: worth it. You could do the All twenty two, which

103
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 1: is so cool. Uh, it's the it's the camera shot

104
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 1: where you can kind of see every single player on

105
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 1: the field and kind of how they lined up and

106
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 1: and uh and basically what happened in the playing. And

107
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:58,720
Speaker 1: it's a feature. You don't really get it just watching television. Right,

108
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,520
Speaker 1: It's so cool, man, it's a great feature NFL dot Com.

109
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:06,480
Speaker 1: That's very true, very true. All right, let's get to

110
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:10,599
Speaker 1: our top ped lunch. The camera highlights in the world

111
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 1: of sport, freaking breaking. They continue to follow breaking news

112
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 1: news kid. All Right, Dallas taking on Seattle. A lot

113
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:32,719
Speaker 1: of interesting fantasy implications in that ball game. Tony Romo,

114
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 1: he heard his back three plays in and you know,

115
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 1: and and this was here's the scary part about it.

116
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 1: You know, if he had taken you know, a blindside

117
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:47,239
Speaker 1: sack or something from Richard Sherman or or Cam Chancellor. Okay,

118
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:51,839
Speaker 1: I get it. He was making a routine football play

119
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:55,599
Speaker 1: and got hit from behind. It didn't look you know,

120
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 1: it didn't look like a big time hit or anything.

121
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:01,159
Speaker 1: He kind of got folded. Years it was it was

122
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 1: like this, I mean a little bit that happened to

123
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:06,040
Speaker 1: him two years ago against against Washington when he like

124
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:10,400
Speaker 1: bent awkwardly and like crumbled to the ground. It was

125
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 1: just a weird play. I mean, he was going, I

126
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: don't want to say he was going, but it didn't

127
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 1: look like he was going a dent on the play.

128
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 1: And I know the defense was coming in coming in hot,

129
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 1: but it didn't look like he took a big time hit. Anyways,

130
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 1: he heard his back, uh, and he was writhing around

131
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 1: in pain. The good news is, he says, the owner says,

132
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 1: everybody says, he's not really hurt. I think it's interesting though,

133
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 1: because I was obviously doing multiple things and trying to

134
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 1: keep an eye on that game and everything on Twitter says, yeah,

135
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 1: Tony Roman has a helmet on. He wants to come

136
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 1: back in the game, And Jason Garrett was basically like

137
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:53,160
Speaker 1: knoop that idea. One of the announcers of the game,

138
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:56,240
Speaker 1: like obviously a Cowboys local market, said I've got a

139
00:07:56,240 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 1: better shot going into this game, right, all right, So

140
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 1: there you go. So you know, make of it what

141
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 1: you will. But uh, you know, we're talking about a

142
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:06,680
Speaker 1: guy that broke his collar bone twice in the same

143
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,760
Speaker 1: spot last year. Um, you know, everything that I've heard

144
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 1: and read and talked to medical professionals I've spoken with

145
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 1: say that if that happens trust me. Uh, they could

146
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 1: do things to quote unquote strengthen it, but you are

147
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 1: much more likely to break that collar bone again. Uh,

148
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 1: so we shall see. This is the reminder of how

149
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 1: fragile Romo is but a little bit. I mean, just look,

150
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:30,680
Speaker 1: he's a tough guy, like like that's the thing I want,

151
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,160
Speaker 1: like I want to say, like he is a tough dude,

152
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,560
Speaker 1: there's no question about it. But you could also be

153
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 1: a tough guy that's injury prone. And I think that's

154
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,360
Speaker 1: who he is. Uh, he's great when he plays, but

155
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:44,560
Speaker 1: well he play if he doesn't play, I guess basically,

156
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 1: seeing the the injury prone nous of Tony Romo, does

157
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 1: it make you worried about a guy like des Briant. Well,

158
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 1: I do think that we that it is something to

159
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 1: worry about because, like I've said on this podcast a

160
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,400
Speaker 1: lot of times, des Bryant does not get funneled the

161
00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:00,560
Speaker 1: amount of targets at a traditional elite widers either one.

162
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,599
Speaker 1: Does you know he has never topped a hundred and

163
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 1: sixty targets in his career where never had a hundred catches.

164
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 1: Yeah right, We're kind of amazing it is considering that

165
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 1: guys like Julio Jones and Antonio Brown and DeAndre Hopkins

166
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:14,720
Speaker 1: pushed almost two hundred targets last year. It's amazing that does.

167
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,600
Speaker 1: Bryant's never seen that amount of volume. So he makes

168
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:19,840
Speaker 1: his living off being an elite touchdown square. I mean,

169
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:23,200
Speaker 1: he is the best target to touchdown conversion threat in

170
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 1: the NFL. They need, but they need a quarterback to

171
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 1: move down into the red zone to make him to

172
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 1: make it I viable there. The good thing is we

173
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 1: have seen a lot of good stuff from Dak Prescott.

174
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 1: Didn't he ain't. Nobody got time for Dak, So I

175
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 1: agree we've seen a lot of good things for Dak Prescott.

176
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 1: But an issue, I don't even call it an issue,

177
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 1: but something I've seen multiple people mentioned on Twitter about

178
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott is the way the offense changes when he's

179
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,560
Speaker 1: in a quarterback that he has not been at least

180
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 1: so far, has not been a traditional drop back, pocket passed,

181
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:55,200
Speaker 1: or that they have moved the pocket. They have had

182
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:57,080
Speaker 1: him on bootlegs and a lot of rollouts. We saw

183
00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 1: the read option a lot, and you wonder what that

184
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 1: means for dead I think I think potentially a Dak

185
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 1: Prescott quarterback run maybe better for Zigiel Elliott because of

186
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 1: the way they change the offense and what they do

187
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:12,720
Speaker 1: with the quarterback. It does make me worried a little

188
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 1: bit for Dez for sure. My my good friend Eric

189
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,679
Speaker 1: Stoner from he lives in the l A. Area. He

190
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:20,079
Speaker 1: does a lot of great football works. He's on Twitter too.

191
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 1: He he mentioned, you know, like, is anybody else getting

192
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:28,160
Speaker 1: a Russell Wilson circa his rookie year vibe from Dak

193
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 1: Prescott in this whole situation. I mean, obviously Tony Romo

194
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 1: a little bit better than Matt Flynn, no question about.

195
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:38,080
Speaker 1: But it certainly is a situation where he's establishing himself

196
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,560
Speaker 1: really well in the preseason and and there's kind of

197
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 1: a similar feeling there. It's gonna take an injury for

198
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:45,679
Speaker 1: Dak to get you need, no question. I mean, there's

199
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: certainly going to be some lunatics out there. They're like, hey,

200
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 1: what if you know what if Dak Prescott is better

201
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 1: than Tony Romo? And I'm not I'm sure there are

202
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 1: some delusional cowboys, oh yeah, searching on Twitter. It's gotta

203
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,560
Speaker 1: it's gotta be out there. But I mean, right now,

204
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:01,440
Speaker 1: it's just encouraging that we're seeing good backup quarterback play

205
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:03,839
Speaker 1: from the Cowboys, because you know, Dez was obviously hurt

206
00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:06,559
Speaker 1: last year, but certainly without question the fact that they

207
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:09,559
Speaker 1: just ran out a bunch of bombs at the quarterback

208
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,440
Speaker 1: positions backups last year, and that makes you feel better.

209
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:14,280
Speaker 1: I think one of the cool things watching the game

210
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 1: last night too is when Zeke is out there, he's

211
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,600
Speaker 1: such a the defense can't ignore him. He's such a threat.

212
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:22,840
Speaker 1: There was a one read option where Dak kept it

213
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 1: and entire Seahawks defense bit on Zeke running up the

214
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,000
Speaker 1: middle and Dac went around the outside and got like

215
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 1: eight yards. I bet I bet it was like, oh,

216
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 1: well that wasn't because and we'll talk about zek all it,

217
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:35,840
Speaker 1: I'm sure, but like, you know the whole time, like

218
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 1: he's just ripping off great run after great run, and

219
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:39,679
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, that was a nice little five yard game,

220
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 1: Like oh, no, Breascott's got the ball. Yeah, there were

221
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 1: a couple of foolery moves there, um man, I will

222
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:48,840
Speaker 1: tell you Zeke Elliott he is the root, why man,

223
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:52,920
Speaker 1: He is the real deal and carries forty eight yards.

224
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,080
Speaker 1: And here's the thing too, you know, if you go

225
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 1: back and look at the highlights. Go to NFL dot com.

226
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,080
Speaker 1: By the way, NFL dot com, Uh, it's got your

227
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 1: highlights for you. But man, it was incredible what this

228
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:07,040
Speaker 1: kid was doing. There were two. He was meeting camp

229
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 1: Chancellor head on. That was one of the two that

230
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 1: that really made me know, Okay, yeah, this this is legit,

231
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,240
Speaker 1: Like this is really happening. Was him running over camp

232
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 1: Chancellor and Adam Ranked this morning kind of compared it

233
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:23,840
Speaker 1: a little bit to both Jackson running over Brian Bosworth.

234
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 1: So there was that. The other thing about last night

235
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 1: that made me believe that this is really happening. On

236
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,600
Speaker 1: the play where Tony Romo got hurt, it was Zeke

237
00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 1: Elliott standing in there in pass protection and delivering. I

238
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:41,440
Speaker 1: think it's kJ Wright was coming in just blew him up.

239
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 1: I mean, I was never worried about his ability as

240
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:46,560
Speaker 1: a rusher or even as a pass catcher. But the

241
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:48,600
Speaker 1: fact that he was able to lower his shoulders show

242
00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:51,719
Speaker 1: some power and stand in and pass protection and do

243
00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:54,320
Speaker 1: his job, that's what's keeping him on the field for

244
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:56,959
Speaker 1: three downs. And listen, there was a lot of talk

245
00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,880
Speaker 1: that you know, Alfred Morris could factor into this equation,

246
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,080
Speaker 1: and he looked and he looked great in the preseason,

247
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,440
Speaker 1: but but it's just different. You know, It's like with

248
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:07,680
Speaker 1: Alfred Morris and even with Darren McFadden last Year's like

249
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 1: this offense is so built to run the ball that

250
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:11,559
Speaker 1: these guys can give you great production, they can look

251
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:13,640
Speaker 1: really good on the field, but it is just a

252
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 1: different thing watching Ezekiel Elliott in that offense a different animal.

253
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 1: It was just I mean, it's not like if you

254
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:22,960
Speaker 1: if you can't see the difference between what Alfred Morris

255
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:24,880
Speaker 1: is doing back there what Zekiel Elli did on his

256
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 1: first step on an NFL field, Like you're just you're

257
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 1: not good at watching football, Like that's that's the bottom line,

258
00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:31,400
Speaker 1: or you've got some kind of bias or something. Well

259
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 1: it's and you know it's consistently just I mean, if

260
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:35,880
Speaker 1: if you're still with like I can't take on my

261
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 1: first time, I haven't seen him play down in the NFL,

262
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:40,720
Speaker 1: just shut up. Just just just honestly, Look, we just

263
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 1: saw him play in the NFL. And I get it's

264
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:44,280
Speaker 1: a priest. I get's a preseason game, but he was

265
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 1: whipping the Seahawks first team defense. I mean, he was

266
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 1: meeting camp camp Chancellor hitting safeties in the NFL. I

267
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 1: mean just meeting him head on. And you know it

268
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 1: was funny too, because there was a point in that

269
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,560
Speaker 1: game We're actually felt like a real game because the defense,

270
00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 1: the Seattle Seahawks defense started getting pissed. Oh yeah, oh yeah.

271
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,120
Speaker 1: You saw Richard Sherman talking trash. That's what I'm saying.

272
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:12,120
Speaker 1: Like we were like, okay, this is not a preseason

273
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:15,679
Speaker 1: game anymore. Like this defense is getting shown up by

274
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:19,440
Speaker 1: by a rookie. And they were pissed. And when they

275
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 1: started piling on, I mean, Richard Sherman was taking slightly

276
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:24,680
Speaker 1: late hits, you know what I mean. Like it was

277
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:26,920
Speaker 1: it felt like a real It wasn't even they got

278
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 1: shown up. I mean it was that guys like Cam

279
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:33,120
Speaker 1: Chancellor and Richard Sherman really wanted to give Ezekiel Elliott

280
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:35,120
Speaker 1: his welcome to the NFL moment, and they did not.

281
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 1: He said, I bring it on, let's do this, um,

282
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 1: let's talk on the other side of the field here.

283
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:44,200
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson looked great, that's fine, He's gonna be great. Um.

284
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 1: You know, he's throwing it to different guys and he

285
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 1: looked awesome, man, that's fine, but here's the thing. We've

286
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:53,760
Speaker 1: got the franchise here, Yes, the Magical Beard fans. I'm here, Christian,

287
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:58,200
Speaker 1: Michael Man, Chris and Michael Holy Cal keep doing it.

288
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Awakening. He just keep feeling every single

289
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 1: week he's gonna be a factor. Don't don't sleep on it.

290
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 1: People are tweeting at me yesterday. Uh oh, you're sleeping

291
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:14,160
Speaker 1: on Thomas Rawls. Nobody's sleeping on Thomas Rawls. What people

292
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 1: are sleeping on is Kristen Michael and c. J. Process

293
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:19,880
Speaker 1: are both going to have a significant role in this backfield.

294
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 1: It's a committee. Now, don't take Thomas Rawls in the

295
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,800
Speaker 1: second or third round like he's Seattle's feature back. So basically,

296
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 1: just forget Seattle running backs. Sack him up. The thing

297
00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:33,920
Speaker 1: about Rawles too, is he runs so violently in the

298
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 1: way Marshawn Lynch does. It exposes him to injury. Can

299
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,920
Speaker 1: we can we at least say this, so, I think

300
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:44,760
Speaker 1: you can still draft Thomas Rawls at his current value.

301
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:46,640
Speaker 1: Where's he going in the fourth round something like that.

302
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,480
Speaker 1: I think you can still late third, early fourth. Okay,

303
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 1: let's say it's late third. Let's say it's in the third.

304
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:53,040
Speaker 1: Let's just say it's smack dab in the middle of

305
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,840
Speaker 1: the third. Okay, I think you could still take a

306
00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:59,160
Speaker 1: guy like Thomas Rawls there. But I will say this though,

307
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:03,280
Speaker 1: it's clear Michael is the clear cut handcuff. Yes, that's

308
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 1: the thing, and it provides a lot of clarity. And MG,

309
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,680
Speaker 1: I know you get sad about it about a possible

310
00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 1: committee there in Seattle, but let me give you a

311
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 1: little hope, my friend. At the very least you now

312
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 1: know who the clear cut handcuff is moving forward. Yeah,

313
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:24,880
Speaker 1: I mean it's a week week consolation, Yeah, it is.

314
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 1: It's such a weak consolation prize, especially when you know

315
00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 1: franchise mentions that C. J. Procis is still potentially hanging around.

316
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 1: There will be there. I don't I don't deny any

317
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:38,240
Speaker 1: of their talent. I don't deny that any of them

318
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,320
Speaker 1: have looked good. At least you know what we've seen

319
00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 1: out of Michael in a little bit out of pro sise.

320
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 1: That makes me even more upset, because you know it's

321
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 1: just what I don't. I just don't. Well, here's how

322
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 1: I think the backfield is gonna work. I think that

323
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 1: Rawles is gonna come in and I think for at

324
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:56,920
Speaker 1: least one week they will split carries. But I think

325
00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 1: moving forward, I really do think it will be Rawls

326
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 1: will be the starter. I think Rawls will be the starter.

327
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:03,840
Speaker 1: I do think that he's gonna get the bulk of

328
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,200
Speaker 1: the carriage, just because again, that's just how they've run

329
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 1: this offense. Even and Marcus, you know, even Pete Carroll,

330
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 1: going back to his USC days, he didn't he didn't

331
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 1: rotate guys in and out. He might have rotated them

332
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:18,399
Speaker 1: in and out of games, I mean within a game,

333
00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,440
Speaker 1: he liked to go with one. The only actual rotation

334
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:23,480
Speaker 1: I think he ever ran that I can recall was

335
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,320
Speaker 1: the Reggie Bush Lyndale White. Yeah, but even then they

336
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:28,640
Speaker 1: it wasn't even so much a rotation. They just had

337
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 1: such a different skill set and they were all on

338
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:36,120
Speaker 1: the field a lot except for that fourth down. I'm

339
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:40,960
Speaker 1: just sadu stop. I don't want to talk about it,

340
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:44,560
Speaker 1: talk about and we talked about about Tyler Lockett real quick,

341
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:46,680
Speaker 1: because this is something that I think has been developing

342
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,879
Speaker 1: throughout the preseason. This comes from Adam Levitan, who is

343
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:51,919
Speaker 1: a great follow on Twitter app. Yeah, Adam Levitan, He's

344
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 1: been tracking a lot of preseason snaps. Uh. He reports

345
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,720
Speaker 1: that Russell Wilson has now played seventy five preseason snaps.

346
00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:01,080
Speaker 1: The top three wide receiver snap count during that time

347
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:05,160
Speaker 1: Doug Baldwin, Jermaine Curse fifty three, and Tyler Locke at

348
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 1: thirty eight. This is something that a lot of people

349
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 1: have been tweeting me about, and I think it's fair

350
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:11,480
Speaker 1: to uh, it's fair to address that. Uh, if Lockett's

351
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 1: going to be, you know, a sixties sixty snap player

352
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:16,439
Speaker 1: or something like that in a in an offense, it

353
00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:19,640
Speaker 1: is still going to be be based around the run game.

354
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:22,720
Speaker 1: You know, perhaps this is a player that that we

355
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:25,800
Speaker 1: might need to approach with caution at his current draft price,

356
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:27,920
Speaker 1: which his ADP is still in the seventh round. And

357
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,440
Speaker 1: I think that's totally fine. Obviously, those aggressive projections that

358
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:33,960
Speaker 1: you and I gave in that reception perception videos certainly

359
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 1: look like a more quite well that's why they're more

360
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:39,720
Speaker 1: like a down the line thing. You know. I think

361
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:41,880
Speaker 1: the talent is still undeniable with Lockett. He looked great

362
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:43,520
Speaker 1: last night when he got targets. He had the one

363
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:45,879
Speaker 1: touchdown cats from from Russell will which is the most

364
00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:50,480
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson playoff. He runs around for five minutes and

365
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 1: then he finds Tyler, basically like you're playing someone in Madden.

366
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,040
Speaker 1: Pretty Seahawks. We would like to think that this is

367
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,879
Speaker 1: like a talent creates opportunity situation. And I think that

368
00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:02,280
Speaker 1: they love German curses a blocking receiver and two wide receivers,

369
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 1: which is why he got resigned, which is why he's

370
00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:07,359
Speaker 1: ahead of Tyer Lockett in preseason snap counts. But this

371
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:09,359
Speaker 1: is a team that is going to rotate their receivers.

372
00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:11,920
Speaker 1: I just think this makes lock It probably this year

373
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:15,000
Speaker 1: more of like a boom bust wide receiver three on

374
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:16,640
Speaker 1: a week to week I would agree with that. Yeah,

375
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:18,800
Speaker 1: And you know, kudos to you because you know it's

376
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 1: hard to sometimes, you know, divest yourself of you know

377
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:27,040
Speaker 1: your emotions, right, because you're high on Tie Lockett. I'm

378
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,040
Speaker 1: high on toy unlock It. But here's the thing. We've

379
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 1: seen enough preseason games now to know the guys like

380
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:35,360
Speaker 1: your man curse, they're gonna get work, right. We saw

381
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:39,920
Speaker 1: Paul Richardson a Richardson he played fourteen snaps to lock

382
00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 1: At sixteen last night, so he's gonna get work. Uh So, again,

383
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:47,360
Speaker 1: kudos to you man, because like, honestly, it is hard

384
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:51,199
Speaker 1: to sometimes back off of aggressive projections on guys that

385
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:53,760
Speaker 1: you like. And I've been there, right and and so

386
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:55,680
Speaker 1: it's hard. But but you know, you're right, Well, it's

387
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:57,520
Speaker 1: not it's not a it's not a thing where like

388
00:19:57,520 --> 00:19:59,959
Speaker 1: we're low unlock its ability and I mean, reception percept

389
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,959
Speaker 1: is all about illuminating ability, not projecting who's gonna get

390
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:05,280
Speaker 1: target or who's gonna get snaps. So you know, it's

391
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:07,080
Speaker 1: it's that kind of situation that we're in right now,

392
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 1: and we're you know, again, hopefully talent creates opportunity for

393
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 1: fantasy perspective, but I think this is a situation where

394
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 1: you you can't roll into the fantasy season with Lockett

395
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 1: as a wide receiver two or something. I would agree

396
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:20,320
Speaker 1: with that. All right, let's go to Atlanta taking on Miami. Uh,

397
00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:24,520
Speaker 1: here's the thing. The run game is not looking great

398
00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:27,520
Speaker 1: in Miami. It's not looking great. But can we say

399
00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:33,880
Speaker 1: Arian Foster is the clear cut number one guy in Miami. Uh,

400
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:37,560
Speaker 1: here's the seven carries eleven yards. Arian Foster not that

401
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:39,640
Speaker 1: great either, five carries for ten yards, but he did

402
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:43,160
Speaker 1: have a pretty nice smooth touchdown run. He beat one

403
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,920
Speaker 1: guy at the goal line. I think people are overreacting.

404
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 1: He had had a decent cut. He looked like a

405
00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 1: guys are all freaking out about Arian Foster and I'm

406
00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:54,480
Speaker 1: just I'm not. I'm not freaking out about him. But

407
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:57,720
Speaker 1: he looked significantly better than j I did. The off

408
00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 1: the offensive booked see significantly more efficient when Foster was

409
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 1: on the field. Was I still don't want either part.

410
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:07,200
Speaker 1: I don't want any part for this backfield's let's get

411
00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 1: that clear. But the difference between the two of them,

412
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 1: I mean playing both playing with the starters, both playing

413
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:15,720
Speaker 1: against first team defenses. It was night and day yesterday. Yeah,

414
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,880
Speaker 1: but the Miami offensive line did not do a Gi

415
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 1: any favors um. There were a lot of missed assignments

416
00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 1: by that old line when a Giant was getting his carries,

417
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:27,160
Speaker 1: he had to he was. He showed a cool spin

418
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,400
Speaker 1: move I think late in the second quarter, but that

419
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:31,719
Speaker 1: he got back to the line of scrimmage and like

420
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 1: broke three tackles just get back to the line of scrimmage.

421
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:39,160
Speaker 1: Conspiracy theory hit me. Maybe the old line just doesn't

422
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:41,120
Speaker 1: like a GI as much as they like Foster. Looked

423
00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 1: like they were not trying like they didn't. Let's not forget.

424
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,240
Speaker 1: This is the same team that had a weird bullying

425
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,399
Speaker 1: scandal with its offensive lineman not that long ago. And

426
00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:52,400
Speaker 1: I know a lot of those players aren't there, but

427
00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:54,960
Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe they just maybe they just don't.

428
00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:58,119
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm I'm spitballing here. I'm just making things up,

429
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:01,240
Speaker 1: but you know, maybe who knows. The other important takeaway

430
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 1: for me is that a gi can catch the ball,

431
00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 1: which people flipped out about the report and many cows

432
00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:11,520
Speaker 1: he And the other thing is Adam Gay said earlier

433
00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:14,439
Speaker 1: this summer, I think before they added Aaron Foster is

434
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:17,440
Speaker 1: they wanted they're running back to play a bell cow

435
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:20,320
Speaker 1: type role. Whatever the guy is that's in there, they

436
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:23,200
Speaker 1: want him out there for all three downs. That's how

437
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:25,800
Speaker 1: they used Foster and a giant. They did not rotate

438
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,720
Speaker 1: a giant or point Foster in on third down. That's

439
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 1: a good point. It was they split series so and

440
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,440
Speaker 1: and and Foster was targeted heavily in the red zone.

441
00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 1: I think he saw two targets and three or four

442
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:40,280
Speaker 1: rush attempts there. He got the touchdown. Um yeah, I don't,

443
00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't disagree that they'll rotate these guys

444
00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,840
Speaker 1: through series. But yeah, but what you're basically telling me

445
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:48,880
Speaker 1: is that j g I has done is that That's

446
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:51,560
Speaker 1: not what I'm saying. That's what I think you guys

447
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,120
Speaker 1: are saying. I don't know. I think that's what I think.

448
00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:58,000
Speaker 1: We we saw different things. I mean, done is aggressive.

449
00:22:58,040 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 1: I mean we knew, we knew that he's a good

450
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,639
Speaker 1: pass He caught fifty passes in his final year of

451
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:05,439
Speaker 1: Boisey staate like this is this isn't like Garrett Blunt

452
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:07,640
Speaker 1: Alfred Morris type of player that just straight up can't

453
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:10,440
Speaker 1: catch the football. And your pointing about them rotating series

454
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:13,959
Speaker 1: is well taken. You know, if Foster gets hurt, if like,

455
00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:16,920
Speaker 1: if Foster is to suffer an injury, uh, then yeah,

456
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:20,119
Speaker 1: j I would would assume a lot of touches, I guess.

457
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:22,520
Speaker 1: But you know, the ghost of Isaiah Pete is out

458
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 1: there to mak making some plays and playing with the

459
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:28,560
Speaker 1: first team offense. A man Williams got work man getting worse.

460
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:30,119
Speaker 1: So I don't I don't know that as I is

461
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,159
Speaker 1: a guy that's like, well, if Foster geesn't hurt, then

462
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:34,679
Speaker 1: he's just gonna start seeing twenty touches a game. I

463
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 1: don't know. I probably just want to avoid this entire offense.

464
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:39,840
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a weird committee. I'm starting to feel

465
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,119
Speaker 1: a lot better about Arian Foster, and I'll sell you

466
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:45,040
Speaker 1: right now, man, I'll say it right now. J G.

467
00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:48,200
Speaker 1: I just I'm I'm bumping him off my draft board entirely,

468
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,920
Speaker 1: but I'll push him outside the actually take that back,

469
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:56,360
Speaker 1: I'm pushing him outside the one Foster goes round. That's

470
00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:00,359
Speaker 1: that's ludicrous, that's crazy. Well, look, I'll tell you this.

471
00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:02,159
Speaker 1: I play in a what what? I play in a

472
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 1: twelve team in a fourteen team league? Uh and and

473
00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:06,639
Speaker 1: you know, and then of course I play in these

474
00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:09,879
Speaker 1: ten team leagues here at work. But you know, we like,

475
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:13,200
Speaker 1: we're all pretty tied into the whole fantasy game. He's

476
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:15,920
Speaker 1: not going anywhere near that draft price, even in a

477
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 1: twelve even in a fourteen team league. I don't think

478
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:20,359
Speaker 1: he's gonna be going fifth round in the league that

479
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,200
Speaker 1: I play. So I would expect to see him there.

480
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:25,840
Speaker 1: If you're playing in a sharper league, I probably expect

481
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 1: to see him there. Round seven, Round eight, you're comfortable there.

482
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:32,520
Speaker 1: I think round eight, I'm pretty darn comfortable if I

483
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:34,879
Speaker 1: if I'm on the ends and I feel like I

484
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:37,080
Speaker 1: gotta reach for the guy, maybe I reached for him

485
00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:38,680
Speaker 1: and round side, I don't know. I don't know, but

486
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,600
Speaker 1: you know again, I'm I'm pretty comfortable with him there,

487
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:44,840
Speaker 1: just given the upside, given the upside. But j Ji,

488
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:48,520
Speaker 1: he's done, is not done. They need his they need

489
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 1: his young legs. Foster. Foster made some nice cuts, but

490
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 1: he's clearly slower that right. We're talking in circles about

491
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:58,320
Speaker 1: the backfield. Any any uh any takeaways regarding Ryan Tannehill,

492
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:01,159
Speaker 1: maybe Matt Ryan, who look terrible again, I don't know

493
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:04,080
Speaker 1: on either of them. There was a franchise referred to

494
00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:10,520
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan Tannehill earlier yesterday. Yeah, and Freeman had nowhere

495
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 1: to run. They rotated Coleman in on third and longs. Yeah,

496
00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:15,640
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a little bit of a mess. Yeah,

497
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:17,359
Speaker 1: a little bit of a mess. Listen, is there at

498
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,720
Speaker 1: least in the preseason. Can we talk about DeVante Parker too?

499
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 1: And I think this, I think this, uh this warrants

500
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:24,359
Speaker 1: are our very first use of a drop that we

501
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 1: we created earlier. I mean, if you're drafted Devanta Parker

502
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:29,600
Speaker 1: right now. You you gotta be letting this one out

503
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 1: right there. I mean, so last night, uh in in

504
00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:37,359
Speaker 1: the first half wide receiver snap counts on two wide

505
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:40,840
Speaker 1: receiver sets. This comes from Pro Football Focus is Nathan Jenkie.

506
00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:43,359
Speaker 1: He's another great follow on Twitter. He uh he tracks

507
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:45,359
Speaker 1: snap counts like in all the primetime games during the

508
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:49,639
Speaker 1: regular season. Uh, seven snaps for Kenny Stills, seven snaps

509
00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:52,320
Speaker 1: for Jarvis Landry, zero for DeVante Parker and two wide

510
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:55,639
Speaker 1: receiver sets. And Parker doesn't look good, Like that's the

511
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 1: thing would be one thing if he's playing, you know,

512
00:25:57,560 --> 00:25:59,040
Speaker 1: not a lot of snaps and he doesn't look good

513
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,600
Speaker 1: out there. But this is something I've been talking about

514
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:05,320
Speaker 1: for a while now. You've heard zero buzz, right, zero

515
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:10,160
Speaker 1: buzz regard can can anybody formulate well? For first Yeah,

516
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:12,119
Speaker 1: Like I've I've been talking about this for a while now. Like,

517
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:15,639
Speaker 1: he doesn't get off press coverage well, he struggles at

518
00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:18,879
Speaker 1: the catch point, you know, consistently. Obviously he makes highlight

519
00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 1: real catches. He will make Kyli real catches this year.

520
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 1: But there is no reason to think that he's ready

521
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:26,919
Speaker 1: to be a consistent threat in this offense or useful

522
00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:29,960
Speaker 1: for fantasy can anybody make a case for him being

523
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:33,800
Speaker 1: a single digit round pick in fantasyop not drafting him?

524
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:37,720
Speaker 1: There I was, I've been down on him for a while.

525
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:39,840
Speaker 1: I'm I'm out, Yeah, I'm out. I mean he needs

526
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:41,600
Speaker 1: to slip to like like, there's not a ton of

527
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:44,440
Speaker 1: difference right now between a guy like DeVante Parker and

528
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:46,800
Speaker 1: Devin Funches, Like, be honest with you, except Devin Funches

529
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:49,200
Speaker 1: plays with a good quarterback at this At this point,

530
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:52,159
Speaker 1: the only thing I'm looking at out of Miami is

531
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:56,159
Speaker 1: Jarvis Landry and maybe I take a late round flyer

532
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:59,400
Speaker 1: on Kenny. Are we sleeping on stills? Nobody's talking about

533
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,440
Speaker 1: this guy. I think he's a pretty perfect you know

534
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:03,920
Speaker 1: MFL tent. Well those are over now, so never mind,

535
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,600
Speaker 1: I'll just shut up. But I think like in in

536
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:09,840
Speaker 1: weeks they'll have a pot of Yeah, I don't know

537
00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 1: how you're going to predict them typical, but typical these

538
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:14,639
Speaker 1: d threats. But he's gonna matter this year. And just

539
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:18,560
Speaker 1: Leonte Carew is still developing this guy. Yeah, him, granted

540
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:22,320
Speaker 1: is a burner as well, so um, you know, it's interesting.

541
00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:25,719
Speaker 1: They got a lot of guys that can do different

542
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 1: things in the wide receiving corps. They just don't have

543
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:31,720
Speaker 1: one guy that could do everything. That's the problem. Yeah,

544
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:34,080
Speaker 1: I feel like the Dolphins offense might just be bad. Yeah,

545
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,480
Speaker 1: just just of I mean, honestly, just all out of void.

546
00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:39,359
Speaker 1: I think I think Landry's fourth round ADP right now

547
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:42,720
Speaker 1: is more than fair. But still, I just doesn't excite me.

548
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:44,760
Speaker 1: Like I said, you know, it's interesting though, because their

549
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:47,840
Speaker 1: defense is so bad. That's something something on the offense

550
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,800
Speaker 1: is going to click something it's got. Does does it

551
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:54,199
Speaker 1: have to? I mean, doesn't it there? If their defense

552
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:56,359
Speaker 1: is that bad? I mean it doesn't have I mean,

553
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:58,160
Speaker 1: I know they only give up six points of the Falcons,

554
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:03,359
Speaker 1: but still, Aaron Foster's back might. Alright, we're moving on.

555
00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:07,440
Speaker 1: Uh what else we talked about here? Oh? Uh gosh,

556
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:09,159
Speaker 1: where was I going with that? I was a don't know.

557
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:14,359
Speaker 1: I mean, Julio Jones tweaked ankle and worry about freaked

558
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 1: out about that? No, yeah, exactly, That's where I was

559
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:19,040
Speaker 1: gonna go. Julio Jones tweaked ankle, but no big deal,

560
00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:21,240
Speaker 1: don't worry about it. He's good. Uh a FC South.

561
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:24,360
Speaker 1: Let's talk about the Texans. Lamar Miller New Co Hopkins. Um,

562
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:26,440
Speaker 1: you know people have been asking me about Lamar Miller

563
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:31,119
Speaker 1: in the first round. You guys comfortable. I'm not. I'm not,

564
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:33,159
Speaker 1: But you're telling me he's gonna be a top ten

565
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:36,320
Speaker 1: player in this well. Because so I think what started

566
00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 1: a lot of this and and I maybe a little

567
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:41,240
Speaker 1: bit bought into it. And maybe I threw a log

568
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:44,400
Speaker 1: on this fire too. I don't know. Um, all this

569
00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:49,520
Speaker 1: talk from admittedly anonymous scouts, but saying that Lamar Miller

570
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:52,200
Speaker 1: is set up to have a season for the Ages,

571
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,040
Speaker 1: that what they want to do with him, combined with

572
00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 1: his ability, the fact that he will probably get the

573
00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:58,760
Speaker 1: requisite number of Texas we always hoped he would get

574
00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,560
Speaker 1: in Miami set him up for huge production this year.

575
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:04,560
Speaker 1: Of course, that was also before they lose their starting

576
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:08,040
Speaker 1: center Nick Martin for the entirety of the year. The

577
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:10,440
Speaker 1: left tackle Dwayne Brown also might not start the year.

578
00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:12,120
Speaker 1: So I mean, you know, I think this is all

579
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:14,760
Speaker 1: before they started having some issues along the offensive line.

580
00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:17,560
Speaker 1: Now that said, I still think he's the top five

581
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:20,480
Speaker 1: running back. I mean, it surprised me yesterday when I

582
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:22,520
Speaker 1: was going through numbers and realized that he was the

583
00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:26,200
Speaker 1: RB six in in Fantasy last year just didn't you know,

584
00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:27,880
Speaker 1: I thought he had a good year. I didn't think

585
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:31,480
Speaker 1: he had that good of me one one game against

586
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:33,320
Speaker 1: the Texas he had on a stretch where he was

587
00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:35,880
Speaker 1: a blow up guy, a huge game against the Texans

588
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 1: where he pretty much did all his work in the

589
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:39,600
Speaker 1: first half, and plus a position group died last year

590
00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:43,360
Speaker 1: that too. But I do think he is in position

591
00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:45,600
Speaker 1: to be a top five running back this year. And

592
00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:48,600
Speaker 1: so I think that at least certainly in in twelve

593
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 1: or fourteen team leagues, gives him consideration to be a

594
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:54,240
Speaker 1: first round Maybe he's not a first round pick, but

595
00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:55,959
Speaker 1: he's at least the guy that you're thinking about at

596
00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:57,720
Speaker 1: the back end there. And I've always said to you know,

597
00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 1: if you're picking on the ends, gotta go good your guy.

598
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:02,760
Speaker 1: So you know, if you're high on Lamar Miller, and

599
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,840
Speaker 1: let's say you grade him as a a mid or

600
00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:08,680
Speaker 1: low second rounder, but you're sitting there at pick number

601
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:11,840
Speaker 1: ten or twelve, and what are you gonna do? You know? Yeah,

602
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:13,720
Speaker 1: I mean, if you like them, I think he'll be like,

603
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:15,400
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to go get him. So there you go. Yeah,

604
00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:18,240
Speaker 1: he'll be fine as an RB one, all right? Will Fuller,

605
00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:20,360
Speaker 1: Jalen Strong. This kind of makes me sad man, Like,

606
00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 1: you know, Jalen Strong kind of came on in the

607
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,200
Speaker 1: O T A S and we're hearing about great reports.

608
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 1: They obviously spent a pretty high draft pick on Jalen Strong.

609
00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:31,920
Speaker 1: His college tape tells you this guy can absolutely play.

610
00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:35,800
Speaker 1: His combined numbers were super solid. Came into camp out

611
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 1: of shape last year, but this year they were talking

612
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,960
Speaker 1: about him being refocused, in shape, all of those things.

613
00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:45,600
Speaker 1: I was getting super excited about Jalen Strong. Oh my gosh,

614
00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 1: I was so big on it. I didn't realize that

615
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 1: he came into camp that out of shape though. Um,

616
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:53,520
Speaker 1: but now they kind of have a crowded wide receiving corps.

617
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:56,400
Speaker 1: Will Fuller, Jalen Strong, there, Braxfond Miller is gonna make

618
00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:59,840
Speaker 1: some plays every now and again. Um, you know, a

619
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:01,920
Speaker 1: ya going back to you kind of have to kind

620
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 1: of come off of your block sometimes, Janleen Strock to me,

621
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:08,360
Speaker 1: you know again, not draftable dude. Um, and he's just

622
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:11,440
Speaker 1: being rotated in and out too much with Will Fuller.

623
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:14,960
Speaker 1: But yeah, I'll tell you this. With that deep group

624
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:18,480
Speaker 1: of receivers, does this knock DeAndre Hopkins a little bit.

625
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:21,840
Speaker 1: I mean I've been saying he's overvalued from the jump

626
00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 1: as a as a top ten pick in fantasy. I

627
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:27,600
Speaker 1: think he's a good pick around the turn. But yeah,

628
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:29,920
Speaker 1: I mean will Fuller is clearly the two. He's been

629
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:33,040
Speaker 1: running there throughout the entire preseason. Braxon Miller is getting

630
00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:34,720
Speaker 1: a ton of burn in the slot. So, like you mentioned,

631
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:36,840
Speaker 1: Jalen Strong is just the straight up back up to

632
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,360
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins. He'd have a great value of Hopkins was

633
00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:42,120
Speaker 1: to go down, but you know this and Steven Anderson

634
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 1: interesting deep deep sleeper to monitor. There is undrafted tight

635
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:48,960
Speaker 1: end out of cow Uh and Uh. Josh Norris a

636
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:51,080
Speaker 1: big fan of his. He's been beating the drum for

637
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,920
Speaker 1: him for a long long time. And I like what

638
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,320
Speaker 1: I've seen in the preseason. He's got pretty much exclusively

639
00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 1: run with the preseason last last I mean run with

640
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:02,040
Speaker 1: first team last prese season game. Obviously I'm high on Anderson,

641
00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:03,920
Speaker 1: but i mean, come on the target share. Well, no, no, no,

642
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that he's gonna matter, but I just like,

643
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:07,960
Speaker 1: you know, maybe it's like a DFS play some week

644
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:10,880
Speaker 1: or whatever, but just saying like they the options in

645
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:13,960
Speaker 1: this offense are growing, and we know they want to

646
00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:16,640
Speaker 1: run the ball. They were first and fifth in O'Brien's

647
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:19,160
Speaker 1: two years. They have also played fast though last year

648
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:21,000
Speaker 1: they were first in plays run, they were eighth and

649
00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 1: plays around the year before. So opportunities gonna be there

650
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:25,920
Speaker 1: in this offense. But I struggle to I mean, I

651
00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:28,320
Speaker 1: literally can't tell myself a story where DeAndre Hopkins is

652
00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:30,600
Speaker 1: gonna see a hundred niney targets. Again, I can't see

653
00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:32,920
Speaker 1: it either. If this especially if this defense is gonna

654
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,640
Speaker 1: be a lot better than than than they were last year. Well,

655
00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:38,680
Speaker 1: we always talk like progressions, everybody's favorite word of the year,

656
00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,240
Speaker 1: but like we already saw the regression take place with

657
00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins in the second half of last year after

658
00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:48,280
Speaker 1: producing wild numbers in the first half, right when they

659
00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:50,840
Speaker 1: started winning. That's thing like, and you can you can

660
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:53,920
Speaker 1: actually point to a thing in there in their team

661
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:57,120
Speaker 1: outlook where hey, they got better when they started playing

662
00:32:57,280 --> 00:33:00,200
Speaker 1: this style of football and DeAndre Hopkins started playing this

663
00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:02,200
Speaker 1: style of wide receiver. Not a guy that was seeing

664
00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:04,280
Speaker 1: you know, fourteen targets a game, but maybe more just

665
00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:06,080
Speaker 1: like ten. You know, the thing is, you know a

666
00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 1: lot of times in the first round. You're drafting talent level,

667
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:10,880
Speaker 1: and what I'm seeing is that d D Hop And

668
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:13,640
Speaker 1: of course I loved Hop right, but it's like a

669
00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:15,400
Speaker 1: lot of folks are saying, hey, maybe the Hop is

670
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,000
Speaker 1: a possible top five guy, And you know, I I

671
00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:20,640
Speaker 1: look at that varied offense and I think about the

672
00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:22,360
Speaker 1: wrong game, I think about the defense, and I just

673
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:25,800
Speaker 1: and it's not like Brock. It's not like Brock Osweiler.

674
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,680
Speaker 1: Is this guy that's gonna say, you know what, forget

675
00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:32,440
Speaker 1: to play call I'm gonna sling this rock fifty times today.

676
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:35,320
Speaker 1: He's not that guy. If he's slinging the rock fifty times,

677
00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:38,560
Speaker 1: things have gone bad. Yeah, I mean, it's just that's it,

678
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:40,000
Speaker 1: and things have gone back. They don't want to they

679
00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,160
Speaker 1: don't want to play that style of football like the

680
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:44,000
Speaker 1: zero present. They want to stay. They want to play.

681
00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:47,120
Speaker 1: To your point, man, you're right, I can't see myself.

682
00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:50,960
Speaker 1: I can't convince myself that D Hop is a top

683
00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:54,480
Speaker 1: eight pick. I just can't do it. Yeah, but I'll

684
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:56,120
Speaker 1: take him in the first round based off of talent.

685
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:59,200
Speaker 1: If I'm there at at pick nine or ten, I think, yeah.

686
00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:01,400
Speaker 1: If I'm there at the turn, depending on who else

687
00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:03,400
Speaker 1: has gone there? Because you know, we talked about Lamar

688
00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:05,320
Speaker 1: Miller in the first round earlier. Really, the only running

689
00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:07,360
Speaker 1: back that I feel one hundred percent comfortable in taking

690
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:09,840
Speaker 1: the first round is David Johnson. Ezekiel Elliott would be

691
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:11,560
Speaker 1: the guy in this latter half of the first round.

692
00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:13,080
Speaker 1: So if a bunch of receivers have gone off the

693
00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:15,279
Speaker 1: board and those running backs are off the board, Uh,

694
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:18,160
Speaker 1: then I'm starting to weigh you know, Des Bryant and

695
00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:20,480
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins, but I think guys like Keenan Allen have

696
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:22,880
Speaker 1: more of an outlook to reproduce the season that Hopkins

697
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:24,440
Speaker 1: had last year than he does. I'll tell you what,

698
00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:27,000
Speaker 1: I'll take Zeke at five. I'll take him there. I

699
00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:29,560
Speaker 1: got Zeke by humble brag. I got Zeke at ten

700
00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 1: in my launching record draft last Again, when you're picking five,

701
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:36,640
Speaker 1: you ain't gonna get Zeke back. You like him, go

702
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:40,719
Speaker 1: get him? Uh, Colts. Uh. Andrew Luck is going a

703
00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:43,960
Speaker 1: little later in drafts in then than I anticipated. I thought.

704
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,919
Speaker 1: I thought he'd still climbed back into that round four range,

705
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:48,839
Speaker 1: But we're starting to see him on NFL dot Com

706
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:53,719
Speaker 1: going round six or seven. Uh. To me, that's tremendous value. No, yeah, definitely,

707
00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:56,320
Speaker 1: people are just scared from what happened last year. Is

708
00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:58,960
Speaker 1: he a top four quarterback in fantasy next year or

709
00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:02,080
Speaker 1: this coming season? Top four? I haven't met five I have.

710
00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:07,680
Speaker 1: I have it as uh Newton or I mean Rogers, Newton, Wilson,

711
00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:10,480
Speaker 1: Breeze Luck. I could put Luck. I mean I could

712
00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 1: flip flop Luck in Breeze partially because partially because the

713
00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:17,520
Speaker 1: Colts defense could challenge to be one of the worst

714
00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:19,879
Speaker 1: in the league, which means they're going to happen. They're

715
00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:23,200
Speaker 1: going to challenge the Saints though, for the world, which

716
00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 1: is why, which is why you can flip flop those

717
00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:27,719
Speaker 1: two and have them kind of be interchangeable. So I

718
00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:30,440
Speaker 1: think so. Again. My my thing with Andrew Luck is

719
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:33,439
Speaker 1: I just want to see him protect the football better

720
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:39,200
Speaker 1: because he is. He's the early leader for the Mark

721
00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:42,239
Speaker 1: Boulger Award. He can run the ball too. Yeah, he

722
00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:45,120
Speaker 1: gets a couple rushing touchdowns every year. Adds a little

723
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:46,719
Speaker 1: bit of value there. So all right, let me ask

724
00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:50,239
Speaker 1: you this higher ceiling. Yeah, t Y Hilton or Dante

725
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:56,680
Speaker 1: Moncrief Hilton. Yeah, I'd say Hilton because of the big playability.

726
00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:58,279
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. I think they both have

727
00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:01,760
Speaker 1: and it's not it's not like it's far and away

728
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,240
Speaker 1: to Hilton, like I don't I don't believe. I actually

729
00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:07,359
Speaker 1: think mon Creeve's got the higher ceiling. I mean he's

730
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:08,719
Speaker 1: got first of all, Look, can I just say this,

731
00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:11,359
Speaker 1: I'm ridiculously high on Dante Moncrief. I think he's got

732
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:13,360
Speaker 1: the higher floor and the higher seal. I mean, I

733
00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:16,279
Speaker 1: know he was. He was your march Tolen. It wasn't.

734
00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:19,280
Speaker 1: It wasn't. It's not your fault, James, it's not your fault.

735
00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:24,480
Speaker 1: Stop it. I'm gonna start crying and hugging you. I

736
00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:26,719
Speaker 1: think he I think he definitely has the higher I mean,

737
00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:29,480
Speaker 1: I'm right there with you on Moncrief, James. You have

738
00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:32,240
Speaker 1: him as what my wide receiver nineteen in in fantasy,

739
00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:34,400
Speaker 1: and I think that's I think that's being conservative, to

740
00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:37,080
Speaker 1: be honest with you. That's like, that's like his floor. Uh,

741
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:39,640
Speaker 1: this offense is gonna push for the lead league. In

742
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:42,800
Speaker 1: past attempts, there's a zero point zero present chance that

743
00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:45,120
Speaker 1: mon Creeve is gonna see less on hundred twenty targets

744
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:48,160
Speaker 1: with the other options available in the offense. Both were

745
00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:50,319
Speaker 1: already on pace for over a hundred twenty when Luck

746
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:54,400
Speaker 1: was under center. Um, luck Luck. Actually, I mean mon

747
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:57,879
Speaker 1: Creef actually had more catches than Hilton did when Luck

748
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,880
Speaker 1: was under center. Uh, and he was on pace for

749
00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:03,200
Speaker 1: double ditch touchdowns. I mean, this guy already broke out

750
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:06,000
Speaker 1: last year. I've written it feels like a hundred pieces

751
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:08,840
Speaker 1: on that already this offseason. So like, to me, he

752
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:13,880
Speaker 1: from camp standpoint though he kind of didn't though I

753
00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:17,760
Speaker 1: mean less yeah, yeah, but but that was a situation

754
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:20,680
Speaker 1: where his quarterback touchdowns were great. His quarterback was playing

755
00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:22,759
Speaker 1: below expectations. But if you look at like what he

756
00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:25,960
Speaker 1: did in terms of his reception perception, he's a complete

757
00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:28,560
Speaker 1: player at this point. So that's what I'm saying. Like

758
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:31,279
Speaker 1: people might not know he broke out last year because

759
00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:33,640
Speaker 1: of the numbers, but he broke out lastly last year.

760
00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:35,839
Speaker 1: I have no data to back this up. But am

761
00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:38,000
Speaker 1: I right to say that Moncrief is more of a

762
00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:40,279
Speaker 1: red zone threat than Hilton would be? Yeah, there's no

763
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:45,200
Speaker 1: there's no question. Bigger, bigger, stronger guy and and just

764
00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:48,080
Speaker 1: as fast. I mean, that's what's see, That's what's crazy

765
00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:49,479
Speaker 1: to me is that I know that t Y Hilton

766
00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:52,959
Speaker 1: has been doing it longer, and I get that, but listen,

767
00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:58,080
Speaker 1: like the the athletic profile for Dante Moncrief in this offense,

768
00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:02,279
Speaker 1: he can do things that why Hilton can't do. And

769
00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 1: I don't know that t Y Hilton can do things

770
00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:08,439
Speaker 1: that Dante Moncrief can't do. So that's why I'm saying

771
00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:13,680
Speaker 1: to me, look at their respective prices, there's no way

772
00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:17,160
Speaker 1: I would much rather have Dante Moncrief at their respective prices.

773
00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:19,799
Speaker 1: I think mon Creef is a is a early fourth

774
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:23,680
Speaker 1: round pick, and I'm not he doesn't have the name value,

775
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:25,960
Speaker 1: which is why he's slipping right. But I think like

776
00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 1: if you take him in the fourth round, you can

777
00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:31,000
Speaker 1: feel totally okay with that. I was tempted. I'm in

778
00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:33,000
Speaker 1: like a you know, a sharps league with a bunch

779
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:35,239
Speaker 1: of guys from Rhodo World and across the industry right now,

780
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:38,440
Speaker 1: and we're doing like a slow hubble broke. What do

781
00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:42,200
Speaker 1: you mean this is not the first time that's happened.

782
00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:44,680
Speaker 1: Any of you bros could get it. Whatever I'm not,

783
00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:52,880
Speaker 1: I'm not addressing. I'm sure I shook pretty easy, but

784
00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:54,640
Speaker 1: like I was, I was at the top of the

785
00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:56,920
Speaker 1: second round, and I knew mon Or mid second round.

786
00:38:57,120 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 1: I knew Moncrief is not going to come back around

787
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:01,080
Speaker 1: to me in the third round. Davis Mattaco, we had

788
00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:02,640
Speaker 1: on this podcast, was going to take him the top

789
00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:04,720
Speaker 1: of the third showing up he did. I was really

790
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:07,279
Speaker 1: tempted to take him in that second round. WHOA, that's

791
00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:09,840
Speaker 1: crazy though, Yeah, I know, but I'm just saying, like,

792
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:12,000
Speaker 1: he's He's a guy that I think is going to

793
00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:14,040
Speaker 1: break out this year, but I ended up taking any

794
00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:18,920
Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson's like, okay, Uh, Frank Gore's ancient. He's I

795
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:24,279
Speaker 1: think he's forty seven years old accurate. Uh. And I'll

796
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:26,719
Speaker 1: say this, I love Frank Gore as a player. Um,

797
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:31,680
Speaker 1: the dude has put up twelve consecutive seasons of twelve

798
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:36,319
Speaker 1: hundred scrimmage yards or more, what twelve consecutive He has

799
00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:39,800
Speaker 1: not missed a game in five season. That is crazy.

800
00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:42,800
Speaker 1: This is It's insane to me. He's one of the

801
00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:46,920
Speaker 1: most underrated NFL players of all time. Um. That being said,

802
00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:48,839
Speaker 1: somebody I put that out on Twitter's like, when you're

803
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:50,560
Speaker 1: taking him, bro, I'm like, I'm not touching a fantasy.

804
00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:54,799
Speaker 1: I'm with you. But I'm just I'm giving the man

805
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:59,160
Speaker 1: his due. Yeah, he's amazing. Uh that being said, where

806
00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:01,960
Speaker 1: do you take a guy like Frank Gore? Obviously they're

807
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:04,839
Speaker 1: you're uncomfortable taking him wherever you wherever you take when

808
00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:09,839
Speaker 1: just given the age, But where do you take him? Uh? What? Eight?

809
00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:13,160
Speaker 1: Nine six? I think he's a bottom in the sixth

810
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:15,959
Speaker 1: round pick, depending on your team structure. The thing about

811
00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:19,000
Speaker 1: Gore is like he's one of those last starting running

812
00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:21,640
Speaker 1: backs you can get in the middle rounds that you

813
00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:23,759
Speaker 1: know you're gonna Yeah, he's gonna get the volume, he's

814
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:25,480
Speaker 1: gonna get the goal line work. At that point, you're

815
00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:28,440
Speaker 1: you're left with like secondary guys who are you know,

816
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:30,840
Speaker 1: pass catching backs or handcuffs or whatever you want to

817
00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:33,600
Speaker 1: call him. But so he there. He presents a value

818
00:40:33,640 --> 00:40:36,480
Speaker 1: in that way. But I just don't know how how

819
00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:39,080
Speaker 1: much upside he brings. I mean, I've I have been

820
00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:44,480
Speaker 1: a Frank Gore champion for years, um, but even right now,

821
00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:48,000
Speaker 1: I just I look at him with so much trepidation.

822
00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:51,279
Speaker 1: I just I'm worried that this is the year of

823
00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:54,000
Speaker 1: the breakdown. I just you know, and and there's no one,

824
00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:57,320
Speaker 1: there's really nobody in that back field that's going to

825
00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:03,080
Speaker 1: be able to spell him. Yeah, I don't understand talking

826
00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:06,680
Speaker 1: about Robert Turban now as the number two. I don't understand,

827
00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:09,040
Speaker 1: in a draft that was so deep at running back,

828
00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:12,280
Speaker 1: why this team did not address the running back position.

829
00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:14,160
Speaker 1: I don't know. It makes no sense to me. I

830
00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:16,080
Speaker 1: don't know. I mean, I honestly would feel better if

831
00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:18,359
Speaker 1: if I knew there was a guy that would come

832
00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:21,239
Speaker 1: in every so often and be able to give him

833
00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:23,360
Speaker 1: rest on a consistent basis. I guess I'd feel a

834
00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:27,200
Speaker 1: little bit better about it. But I just I love

835
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:29,440
Speaker 1: Frank Gore. I do, and I want to see him

836
00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:31,719
Speaker 1: like I will. I will start a petition to see

837
00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:33,319
Speaker 1: him in the Hall of Fame because I think he's

838
00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:37,520
Speaker 1: been that good for that long. But this year, I

839
00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:40,120
Speaker 1: just I can't. He have two hundred and sixty carries

840
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:42,759
Speaker 1: last year. That's a lot for a guy his age.

841
00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:45,480
Speaker 1: He's thirty three years old coming into this season. This

842
00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:48,440
Speaker 1: is the big time warning sign, right, the big red flag.

843
00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:52,160
Speaker 1: Three point seven yards per carry UH for Frank Gore

844
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:55,080
Speaker 1: last year. It's the first time he's ever dipped below four.

845
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:59,080
Speaker 1: Their offensive line was horrible as and their offensive line

846
00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:02,000
Speaker 1: look Pep hamil in Is. I know he's supposed to

847
00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:06,160
Speaker 1: be a great old line running backs type dude, but no,

848
00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:10,600
Speaker 1: he's just he wasn't a good offensive coordinator. And um,

849
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:13,279
Speaker 1: and I think that I think this offense could be

850
00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:17,239
Speaker 1: on the rise. But well, Frank Gore be there, uh

851
00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:19,680
Speaker 1: to ride that train. I just don't know. Yeah, there's

852
00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:21,680
Speaker 1: gonna be a lot of question marks, all right. Uh

853
00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:24,640
Speaker 1: for me, Like I said, I'm probably if he's there

854
00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:27,719
Speaker 1: in round nine, I'm comfortable, but he'll be gone by then.

855
00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:32,399
Speaker 1: I think. Uh, the Jaguars Alan Robinson first round pick,

856
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:34,640
Speaker 1: top ten player. I'm warming up to a rob at

857
00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:37,080
Speaker 1: the back end of the first round. Yes, I don't

858
00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:40,279
Speaker 1: see how he gets past pick twelve. He's the to me,

859
00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:44,440
Speaker 1: if if if drafts go like I think they're gonna go,

860
00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:48,120
Speaker 1: which would be the top three receivers? Yea, then in

861
00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:52,280
Speaker 1: in some order, Todd Gurley, A J. Green, David Johnson.

862
00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:54,400
Speaker 1: He's the clear next pick and I would obviously take

863
00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:56,759
Speaker 1: him over Girley, no question about it. So he to me,

864
00:42:56,920 --> 00:42:59,200
Speaker 1: he's the sixth overall player. Do you take him over

865
00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:04,040
Speaker 1: Ezekiel l Yes, no question. Wow, let's say I I

866
00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:06,120
Speaker 1: you know, keep going back to what I did last night,

867
00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:09,440
Speaker 1: I had the turnaround pick in a ten team draft

868
00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:12,360
Speaker 1: ten eleven. I went Zeke ten and a rob eleven.

869
00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:13,719
Speaker 1: I mean I could have loved that. I could have

870
00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:18,920
Speaker 1: easily that whatever, but I went Zeke and a Roble. Right,

871
00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:21,839
Speaker 1: there's absolutely love that start. Um. I'll tell I'll tell

872
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:23,880
Speaker 1: you this. One of the most overdrafted players in fantasy

873
00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:26,800
Speaker 1: in my mind is Alan Herns. Yeah. I like Alan

874
00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:29,120
Speaker 1: Herns as a player a lot, but he did your

875
00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:31,360
Speaker 1: touchdowns last year. I get it. He's going in the

876
00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:34,960
Speaker 1: fifth round. And you know, some of the target research

877
00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:36,719
Speaker 1: that I did for the for the article, I just

878
00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:38,440
Speaker 1: put up a couple of weeks, like a week or

879
00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:40,160
Speaker 1: so ago. I don't even know what. I don't know.

880
00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:42,520
Speaker 1: I've lost track of time completely. But he's one of

881
00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:45,160
Speaker 1: those outlier guys that was a wide receiver, a top

882
00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:47,680
Speaker 1: twenty four wide receiver, despite seeing less than a hunter

883
00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:50,640
Speaker 1: twenty targets. And he did it because of his touchdown rate,

884
00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:53,440
Speaker 1: which was almost ten percent of his targets went for touchdowns.

885
00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:56,600
Speaker 1: I'm not saying he's ted again, but he because he's

886
00:43:56,640 --> 00:43:59,560
Speaker 1: got obviously he's got much better hands in a way

887
00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:03,680
Speaker 1: like actual real football player, much better, actual real football player. UM.

888
00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:07,520
Speaker 1: But I'm talking about those opportunities, you know. Um, And again,

889
00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:10,960
Speaker 1: will he see double digit touchdowns next year? I'd be shocked,

890
00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:13,600
Speaker 1: and and and and this is the thing to keep

891
00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:15,799
Speaker 1: in mind as well. UM, and the reason I'm saying,

892
00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:18,239
Speaker 1: do not take this dude in the fifth round. Uh.

893
00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:21,480
Speaker 1: Forget about the touchdown, but dependency on touchdowns. Just his

894
00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:24,640
Speaker 1: injury history alone scares me off the fifth round. We're

895
00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:26,600
Speaker 1: going all the way back, not only to his days

896
00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:29,800
Speaker 1: at Miami, but he suffered like season ending injuries in

897
00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:35,880
Speaker 1: high school. So he's got again a ridiculously long, uh

898
00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:39,440
Speaker 1: injury history going all the way back to high school. So, UM,

899
00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:42,320
Speaker 1: I just have concerns there. And again we kind of,

900
00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:44,640
Speaker 1: you know, we talked about those pop seasons or whatever

901
00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:47,160
Speaker 1: might be. Alan hurts to me had that pop season

902
00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:49,960
Speaker 1: last year. I hope he I hope he's there. I

903
00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:53,800
Speaker 1: hope he plays all sixteen. He's a good player. He was.

904
00:44:54,040 --> 00:44:56,640
Speaker 1: He was a very good player, very productive player on

905
00:44:56,680 --> 00:44:58,840
Speaker 1: the field when he was on the field at Miami.

906
00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:01,680
Speaker 1: But I just I don't see it, man, I just

907
00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:03,520
Speaker 1: don't see it. I think I think, I think I

908
00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:05,120
Speaker 1: know We're gonna get to Julius Thomas in a bit.

909
00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:07,440
Speaker 1: But I think that's the guy that you're worried about

910
00:45:07,520 --> 00:45:11,279
Speaker 1: if you're alan her, because he wasn't Thomas wasn't a

911
00:45:11,360 --> 00:45:15,279
Speaker 1: factor for at least five or six and he was

912
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:17,879
Speaker 1: out of shape. Clearly. You could watch him still trying

913
00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:20,080
Speaker 1: to find his place in that offense for a lot

914
00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:22,040
Speaker 1: of weeks. But he I think he's found it. I

915
00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:24,360
Speaker 1: think he's going to be a huge red zone reports

916
00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:27,720
Speaker 1: of him working with Blake Bortles in the off season.

917
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:29,800
Speaker 1: He's in much better shape this year. He's supposed to

918
00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:31,640
Speaker 1: be healthy. And keep in mind, he he's coming from

919
00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:34,240
Speaker 1: that offense, right he was coming from a Denver offense

920
00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:37,560
Speaker 1: that was so different than what he saw with the

921
00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:41,719
Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars. We're seeing Julius Thomas going the double digit rounds. Man,

922
00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:46,319
Speaker 1: you can get him real, let's not talk about um.

923
00:45:47,239 --> 00:45:50,080
Speaker 1: I think the talent level is still there. Look, you know,

924
00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:52,120
Speaker 1: people ask, you know, people ask about the tight end

925
00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:55,520
Speaker 1: position all the time franchise and like, you know, I'm

926
00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:59,200
Speaker 1: never gonna draft Gronk again, mostly because there's so much

927
00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:01,719
Speaker 1: talent you could have in the double digit round. The

928
00:46:01,760 --> 00:46:04,000
Speaker 1: tight end. Yeah, I'm waiting as long as I can

929
00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:05,840
Speaker 1: to get a tight end. I have my guys that

930
00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:08,440
Speaker 1: I want to target, Zach Miller, Jared Cook, guy like

931
00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:12,000
Speaker 1: Julius Thomas. They're all gonna be around in the twelve rounds.

932
00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:15,240
Speaker 1: R just just wait on tight end. That's Blake Bortles

933
00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:17,279
Speaker 1: is the top five fantasy quarterback last year. Does he

934
00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:21,000
Speaker 1: do it again? Uh? Top five seems a bit rich. Yeah,

935
00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:23,560
Speaker 1: I mean I have him just pulling up my rankings

936
00:46:23,680 --> 00:46:26,160
Speaker 1: right now. My tears, I had my tears. We just

937
00:46:26,280 --> 00:46:29,600
Speaker 1: did We just did that mock for periscope for fantasy draftwork.

938
00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:32,160
Speaker 1: I don't think Blake Bortles was drafted at all. Yeah,

939
00:46:32,239 --> 00:46:35,120
Speaker 1: but pretty much every team only took one quarterback, you know,

940
00:46:35,600 --> 00:46:37,800
Speaker 1: and like, I wouldn't surprise me if he like so,

941
00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:42,239
Speaker 1: I have him at quarterback seventeen and that seems a

942
00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:46,640
Speaker 1: little bit conservative. Um yeah, but you know, it wouldn't

943
00:46:46,640 --> 00:46:48,640
Speaker 1: surprise me if he's a top twelve quarterback. You know

944
00:46:48,719 --> 00:46:51,359
Speaker 1: he's got he's got great touchdown producers, that's the thing.

945
00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:54,400
Speaker 1: And he can run the ball too. He brings a

946
00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:57,160
Speaker 1: steady for head quarterbacks seventeen probably a little bit aggressive,

947
00:46:57,200 --> 00:46:59,440
Speaker 1: but there's just so many good quarterbacks. Did he leave

948
00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:02,279
Speaker 1: the league interceptions last year? It took It took until

949
00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:05,400
Speaker 1: week seventeen from me get there all right, man, he

950
00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:09,239
Speaker 1: held onto that for a long time, but portals did

951
00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:12,640
Speaker 1: get there. But you look at that that the interception,

952
00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:16,040
Speaker 1: that interception number, and then you look at the fact

953
00:47:16,120 --> 00:47:19,960
Speaker 1: that his completion percentage was below. Those are a lot

954
00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:23,160
Speaker 1: of red flags, man, a lot. But all those interceptions

955
00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:25,200
Speaker 1: ended up leading to a lot of touchdown passes because

956
00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:27,799
Speaker 1: Robin how was the reason they were playing from behind

957
00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:29,839
Speaker 1: him a lot of I mean, that's a That's one

958
00:47:29,880 --> 00:47:33,080
Speaker 1: of the great things about about Blake Bortles is like

959
00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:35,359
Speaker 1: he is a guy that has gotten pummeled the last

960
00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:36,840
Speaker 1: couple of years. He's taking a ton of hits. But

961
00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:42,160
Speaker 1: unlike players like you know, Sam Bradford or David Carr

962
00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:45,000
Speaker 1: whatever they weren't got, he hasn't gone into a shell.

963
00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:46,759
Speaker 1: You know. He's just a guy that like like he's

964
00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:49,279
Speaker 1: like bread five. He has no conscience for anything that's

965
00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:51,759
Speaker 1: going on around and which brings a lot of good

966
00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:53,960
Speaker 1: and bad things. You know. He's a big boy. Yeah,

967
00:47:54,040 --> 00:47:56,640
Speaker 1: he's big. He's he's a built dude. Yeah, he's a

968
00:47:56,680 --> 00:47:59,279
Speaker 1: big boy. Um, so no one believes in Blake Bortles,

969
00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:01,080
Speaker 1: repeating his tough five right. No, I don't know. I

970
00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:03,719
Speaker 1: don't think it'll be top five, but I think, okay, fine,

971
00:48:03,719 --> 00:48:06,040
Speaker 1: how about will he be a top ten guy? I

972
00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:08,239
Speaker 1: have him at eleven, so I don't even have him

973
00:48:08,239 --> 00:48:11,560
Speaker 1: in just either it would be I mean, this quarterback

974
00:48:11,600 --> 00:48:13,880
Speaker 1: position just so deep, like it wouldn't surprise me if

975
00:48:14,120 --> 00:48:15,680
Speaker 1: if any of the guys like even down to like

976
00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:17,960
Speaker 1: the I would probably bump him up into Tier four.

977
00:48:18,040 --> 00:48:19,800
Speaker 1: But like any of the guys from Tier four to

978
00:48:20,040 --> 00:48:22,080
Speaker 1: to tier one, if any of those guys finishes top ten.

979
00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:23,680
Speaker 1: All right, let's go to the Titans. What do you

980
00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:27,399
Speaker 1: do with Derrick Henry and de Marco Murray. I'm trying

981
00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:29,560
Speaker 1: to draft Derrick Henry in every league that I can

982
00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:33,600
Speaker 1: deck so good, I think by a couple halfway into

983
00:48:33,640 --> 00:48:35,520
Speaker 1: the season, he's just gonna be a beast. He looks

984
00:48:35,520 --> 00:48:37,480
Speaker 1: like a monster. Yeah, he's so good. It seems to

985
00:48:37,560 --> 00:48:39,600
Speaker 1: be happening sooner. I mean, I thought that by midway

986
00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:41,600
Speaker 1: through this season we'd be talking about him getting on

987
00:48:41,640 --> 00:48:44,080
Speaker 1: the field more. But now coaches already talking about how

988
00:48:44,080 --> 00:48:46,239
Speaker 1: they're trying to get Derrick Henry on the field as

989
00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:49,000
Speaker 1: much as possible early on. Yeah, but I mean, what

990
00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:50,600
Speaker 1: are they gonna do with de Marco Murray? They're not

991
00:48:50,600 --> 00:48:53,560
Speaker 1: going to just discard him. They should though, I mean,

992
00:48:55,719 --> 00:48:59,200
Speaker 1: I think Marco Murray will have a bounce back. Matt Harvin,

993
00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:02,600
Speaker 1: I mean, don't I have Murray like absurdly low in

994
00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:04,800
Speaker 1: my running back rankings. But I just can't find like

995
00:49:04,880 --> 00:49:07,319
Speaker 1: a good reason to draft him. You know, he goes

996
00:49:08,120 --> 00:49:10,279
Speaker 1: he's stupid hot, He's going too high. That's like a

997
00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:13,279
Speaker 1: fourth round pick on Fantasy football. Act all the way

998
00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:16,800
Speaker 1: the hell out of here. That's ridiculous. I mean, Derrick

999
00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:18,800
Speaker 1: Henry is going to be the better player by the

1000
00:49:18,880 --> 00:49:21,759
Speaker 1: end of the season, no question. He looks incredible. He

1001
00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:24,160
Speaker 1: g it's the edge. He actually looks pretty good as

1002
00:49:24,160 --> 00:49:26,560
Speaker 1: a receiver. I think I think he is like the

1003
00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:29,279
Speaker 1: plus version of la Garrett Blunt. And everybody hates like

1004
00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:31,400
Speaker 1: Garrett Blunt, but Blunt's a good running back who was

1005
00:49:31,400 --> 00:49:33,640
Speaker 1: gonna be a top you know, to its first round

1006
00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:35,680
Speaker 1: pick in the NFL draft before we punched that guy

1007
00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:40,359
Speaker 1: from Boise State in the face iron By the way,

1008
00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:43,239
Speaker 1: that's that's the answer to that trivial. Unfortunately, unfortunately, I

1009
00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:46,480
Speaker 1: only ever remember him as dude that Garrett Blunt. But

1010
00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:48,880
Speaker 1: Blunt's been a productive NFL player, so I don't think

1011
00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:51,279
Speaker 1: you think it's a Slanders comparison. And Henry is just

1012
00:49:51,400 --> 00:49:53,680
Speaker 1: something that we haven't seen before. Everybody's like, he looks

1013
00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:57,000
Speaker 1: like Brandon Jacobs, but he does not look so much

1014
00:49:57,080 --> 00:50:00,680
Speaker 1: quicker for his size, movement or lateral He's a he's

1015
00:50:00,680 --> 00:50:02,719
Speaker 1: a freak. And I mean, they are gonna they're gonna

1016
00:50:02,800 --> 00:50:04,680
Speaker 1: run the ball when they're not losing, and they're they're

1017
00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:06,719
Speaker 1: gonna be losing a lot. And I don't know. I

1018
00:50:06,960 --> 00:50:10,120
Speaker 1: I like Derrick Henry um and he's going in the

1019
00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:13,719
Speaker 1: double digit rounds, right, yeah, I think like seventh day

1020
00:50:13,880 --> 00:50:18,200
Speaker 1: round in twelve team leagues. Really, yeah, he's creeping up.

1021
00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:21,120
Speaker 1: That's too high. That's too high. There's too many good players,

1022
00:50:21,200 --> 00:50:24,759
Speaker 1: don't But I mean around that that on Fantasy Football calculator,

1023
00:50:25,120 --> 00:50:27,360
Speaker 1: in that range, it's a mirror Abdula Derrick Henry, La,

1024
00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:31,080
Speaker 1: Garrett Blunt and justin for SAT We'll keep going Danny Woodhead,

1025
00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:34,120
Speaker 1: d Lewis, give me okay now, j J I t

1026
00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:38,560
Speaker 1: J Yelden row L Simms Coleman for sure, but no,

1027
00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:43,359
Speaker 1: uh gosh, list off. That's not a great list, right, Okay,

1028
00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:46,160
Speaker 1: so maybe maybe so I'm not really excited, like as

1029
00:50:46,239 --> 00:50:48,040
Speaker 1: much as I'm gushing about Derrick Henry over here, and

1030
00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:50,640
Speaker 1: I think he's going to be great, you know, a

1031
00:50:50,760 --> 00:50:54,160
Speaker 1: potential like total steal in next year's draft. I don't

1032
00:50:54,160 --> 00:50:56,319
Speaker 1: think this team is ready to quit dexter mcluster either.

1033
00:50:56,480 --> 00:50:59,920
Speaker 1: Oh god, why why did you say listen? Get this

1034
00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:02,759
Speaker 1: guy out of here? The coaching staff gave him the

1035
00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:05,759
Speaker 1: team captain role last year. They like him, They like him.

1036
00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:08,080
Speaker 1: He's gonna he's gonna catch passes. I don't think either

1037
00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:11,319
Speaker 1: one of Henry or or DeMarco is gonna catch enough

1038
00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:12,920
Speaker 1: passes to give you a week to week floor. And

1039
00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:15,879
Speaker 1: but I have Henry ranked over Murray. I expect him

1040
00:51:15,880 --> 00:51:17,640
Speaker 1: to take the lead back roll by the end of

1041
00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:20,719
Speaker 1: the year. And if I'm sure, like never, I'm going

1042
00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:24,160
Speaker 1: to draft Marco on zero. Yes, sorry, yeah, he's not

1043
00:51:25,200 --> 00:51:28,120
Speaker 1: especially giving his price. Yeah that's fourth. I think even

1044
00:51:28,160 --> 00:51:30,000
Speaker 1: on NFL dot Com, I think he's even going like, like,

1045
00:51:30,120 --> 00:51:32,719
Speaker 1: let's say he goes in the seventh round. Even looking

1046
00:51:32,719 --> 00:51:36,440
Speaker 1: at Marco Murray wouldn't I don't even know if i'd

1047
00:51:36,480 --> 00:51:42,040
Speaker 1: take him like round. I know that sounds stupid, but

1048
00:51:42,120 --> 00:51:44,200
Speaker 1: I would just I would just rather take somebody I'm

1049
00:51:44,200 --> 00:51:46,800
Speaker 1: actually excited to, like I hate to pick guys on

1050
00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:50,440
Speaker 1: my team, or like, all right, I guess he forced

1051
00:51:50,520 --> 00:51:53,319
Speaker 1: me to pick him. Like this is supposed to be fun,

1052
00:51:53,360 --> 00:51:55,080
Speaker 1: and I don't think having de Marco Murray on your

1053
00:51:55,080 --> 00:52:00,239
Speaker 1: fantasy starting running back in the National he's there in

1054
00:52:00,280 --> 00:52:02,640
Speaker 1: the tenth round. Like I said, man, I think this

1055
00:52:02,719 --> 00:52:04,399
Speaker 1: thing is supposed to be fun, and I'm not gonna

1056
00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:06,680
Speaker 1: have any fun picking Murray. But you were talking about

1057
00:52:07,360 --> 00:52:10,680
Speaker 1: you're talking about taking Frank Gore in like the sixth

1058
00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:13,239
Speaker 1: or seven, but there's nobody else to take work from

1059
00:52:13,320 --> 00:52:16,480
Speaker 1: Frank Gore. There's two guys to take work from DeMarco Murray,

1060
00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:19,239
Speaker 1: and and the Colts are actually at least going to

1061
00:52:19,280 --> 00:52:21,560
Speaker 1: be decent. I mean, I think all that get all

1062
00:52:21,600 --> 00:52:23,320
Speaker 1: of that we're talking about, tenth round is not a

1063
00:52:23,400 --> 00:52:25,400
Speaker 1: lot of draft capital to spend. I know it's not.

1064
00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:27,640
Speaker 1: I know it's not, and I know that's like that's

1065
00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:30,400
Speaker 1: I'm sure he's a steal there whatever, But I just

1066
00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:32,960
Speaker 1: feel like you're posturing or I'm not posturing. I'm just

1067
00:52:33,120 --> 00:52:35,040
Speaker 1: not I'm just like, I don't want to do it.

1068
00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:39,279
Speaker 1: You can't make me. I know, you know, you know

1069
00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:41,160
Speaker 1: a guy that you would spend a tenth round pick on.

1070
00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:43,800
Speaker 1: I don't know about it. I don't know about a

1071
00:52:43,880 --> 00:52:47,080
Speaker 1: tenth round pick, but can I tell you both round?

1072
00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:51,239
Speaker 1: I'm excited. I'm really excited about getting excited. I think

1073
00:52:51,239 --> 00:52:52,640
Speaker 1: he's not on the radar and a lot of like

1074
00:52:52,760 --> 00:52:57,680
Speaker 1: casual leagues, Yeah, you can get him like fourteen last easy, easy, easy.

1075
00:52:57,800 --> 00:52:59,200
Speaker 1: So we were if you're playing one of those ten

1076
00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:03,160
Speaker 1: team casually, he will be there. He will be there

1077
00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:06,680
Speaker 1: for sure. Gahar and I drafted a league with his

1078
00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:09,439
Speaker 1: with his friends from college that all live out here,

1079
00:53:09,719 --> 00:53:12,080
Speaker 1: and you know, we were going through the draft rankings

1080
00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:13,960
Speaker 1: and everything, and I'm like, I go all the way

1081
00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:15,719
Speaker 1: down to like three forty and I'm like, oh my god,

1082
00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:17,279
Speaker 1: Dag Sharp's all the way down there. We gotta we

1083
00:53:17,360 --> 00:53:19,799
Speaker 1: really gotta fix that. But you know, at the same time,

1084
00:53:19,840 --> 00:53:22,880
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, he's he's absurdly low in draft rankings

1085
00:53:22,920 --> 00:53:25,200
Speaker 1: across the industry. He's a guy that a lot of

1086
00:53:25,239 --> 00:53:28,239
Speaker 1: casual people don't know. So for sure, total steel, Um,

1087
00:53:28,320 --> 00:53:31,839
Speaker 1: here's the thing. He's six to two hundred pounds. He's

1088
00:53:31,880 --> 00:53:35,560
Speaker 1: got incredibly small hands, which I think is what dropped

1089
00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:38,400
Speaker 1: him down quite a bit. His hands eight point or

1090
00:53:38,520 --> 00:53:42,120
Speaker 1: eight and three eights, and they were like seven point

1091
00:53:42,239 --> 00:53:44,879
Speaker 1: three at the at the NFL or at the East

1092
00:53:44,920 --> 00:53:47,080
Speaker 1: West Shrine games. Yeah they were, but then they like

1093
00:53:47,160 --> 00:53:49,520
Speaker 1: grew or something. Oh weird. Okay, I don't know, I

1094
00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:52,120
Speaker 1: don't get it, but that's still incredibly small. Anything less

1095
00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:56,840
Speaker 1: than nine is pretty small. Um. But but again you

1096
00:53:56,920 --> 00:53:59,120
Speaker 1: look at the size and then this, you know, and

1097
00:53:59,239 --> 00:54:01,800
Speaker 1: I thought, coming out of you Mass, a kid you

1098
00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:04,680
Speaker 1: know who six to pounds coming out of you Mass,

1099
00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:06,960
Speaker 1: I'm like, ah, he must be slow, but a good

1100
00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:09,719
Speaker 1: route runner. Well he's a good route runner. And then

1101
00:54:09,760 --> 00:54:12,320
Speaker 1: he's got good speed. He runs a four five, five forty.

1102
00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:16,759
Speaker 1: That's not slow by any stretch of the imagination, especially

1103
00:54:16,880 --> 00:54:19,279
Speaker 1: for a guy who's six too. I think. Well, we've

1104
00:54:19,320 --> 00:54:21,719
Speaker 1: seen in the preseason as well, and again we talked

1105
00:54:21,719 --> 00:54:24,279
Speaker 1: about drumbeat a lot on this podcast. There's been so

1106
00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:30,120
Speaker 1: much positive uh news in such a positive drumbeat surrounding

1107
00:54:30,160 --> 00:54:33,880
Speaker 1: Taj Sharp, so much so that they traded away d

1108
00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:37,279
Speaker 1: g B. Yeah, they were saying months ago that Sharp

1109
00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:40,799
Speaker 1: was pushing d g B. Remember that report Everyone's fifth

1110
00:54:40,880 --> 00:54:43,440
Speaker 1: round pick. I think months ago it was trying to

1111
00:54:43,840 --> 00:54:49,920
Speaker 1: motivational tactic, and it turned out that now we realized

1112
00:54:49,960 --> 00:54:52,160
Speaker 1: that this was real. I mean, tell me, this guy

1113
00:54:52,239 --> 00:54:54,960
Speaker 1: doesn't have the athletic profile to really explode this year.

1114
00:54:55,640 --> 00:54:57,920
Speaker 1: I don't know. He's not a great athlete or anything,

1115
00:54:58,040 --> 00:55:00,840
Speaker 1: but he's a great route runner, really good technician and

1116
00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:04,120
Speaker 1: and was insanely productive in college. But I mean, but

1117
00:55:04,480 --> 00:55:06,520
Speaker 1: but see that I would disagree with you is that

1118
00:55:06,680 --> 00:55:09,279
Speaker 1: I think he does. He is a good athlete at

1119
00:55:09,360 --> 00:55:13,600
Speaker 1: sids and running a four or five that's legit. I mean,

1120
00:55:13,680 --> 00:55:17,520
Speaker 1: he doesn't have the strength obviously, uh of some of

1121
00:55:17,560 --> 00:55:21,440
Speaker 1: the true beasts in the NFL. But his athletic profile

1122
00:55:21,520 --> 00:55:24,400
Speaker 1: is not bad at all. And you combine that with

1123
00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:28,000
Speaker 1: the route running again that that you've mentioned at nausea man, Harmon,

1124
00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:32,640
Speaker 1: I like him, Yeah, I fear that we're starting to

1125
00:55:32,840 --> 00:55:36,600
Speaker 1: get a little over the moon on Sharp. I mean,

1126
00:55:36,680 --> 00:55:38,520
Speaker 1: come on, he's still going to double rounds. I'm not

1127
00:55:38,560 --> 00:55:42,120
Speaker 1: saying go single digits. Yeah, we were saying rounds. Not

1128
00:55:42,280 --> 00:55:47,320
Speaker 1: good as a fire upside type guy in terms of athletics, apartment,

1129
00:55:47,320 --> 00:55:49,120
Speaker 1: basically picked up his laptop and is showing it to

1130
00:55:49,239 --> 00:55:52,120
Speaker 1: James showed me the spiderweb of athleticis is. It's not great.

1131
00:55:52,200 --> 00:55:55,359
Speaker 1: It's not great. That's what I'm saying. He's not Let's

1132
00:55:55,360 --> 00:55:59,560
Speaker 1: also keep in mind that this wide receiver draft class

1133
00:55:59,640 --> 00:56:01,880
Speaker 1: is not considered to be great. They were a handful

1134
00:56:01,920 --> 00:56:03,400
Speaker 1: of guys at the top of it, you know, the

1135
00:56:03,440 --> 00:56:06,040
Speaker 1: tread Wells, the Shepherds, the Coleman's yep, you know, maybe

1136
00:56:06,040 --> 00:56:08,920
Speaker 1: the Docksins who were supposed to be you know, kind

1137
00:56:08,960 --> 00:56:11,279
Speaker 1: of standout. The President was supposed to be great. We're

1138
00:56:11,280 --> 00:56:14,520
Speaker 1: talking about Taj Sharp, who was sort of overlooked and

1139
00:56:14,920 --> 00:56:16,440
Speaker 1: was the fifth round pick. I mean there's a guy

1140
00:56:16,520 --> 00:56:20,239
Speaker 1: that wasn't necessarily highly coved it. So that's I mean,

1141
00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:23,520
Speaker 1: he's a flyer, he's a dart throwing in of your draft,

1142
00:56:23,640 --> 00:56:25,520
Speaker 1: and that's kind of it. But I would rather I

1143
00:56:25,560 --> 00:56:27,279
Speaker 1: think I would rather have in Harmon, you were kind

1144
00:56:27,280 --> 00:56:28,920
Speaker 1: of making the case for the If someone was making

1145
00:56:28,920 --> 00:56:31,400
Speaker 1: the case, I think it was you about Richard Matthews, Like,

1146
00:56:31,440 --> 00:56:34,160
Speaker 1: are we overlooking this guy? For sure? We're all look,

1147
00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:38,560
Speaker 1: I think Matthews is fine. I think I think Sharp

1148
00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:42,279
Speaker 1: has a more potential upside, but can I Here's what

1149
00:56:42,360 --> 00:56:44,840
Speaker 1: I think. Uh, so you're investing a double digit you

1150
00:56:44,920 --> 00:56:48,560
Speaker 1: know again, maybe round twelve or something on TAJ Sharp, Matt,

1151
00:56:48,600 --> 00:56:50,360
Speaker 1: you and I were talking about this before too, in

1152
00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:53,160
Speaker 1: terms of targets share, I can't really see a scenario

1153
00:56:53,239 --> 00:56:55,279
Speaker 1: where he doesn't at least get a hundred tarts. Yeah,

1154
00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:57,360
Speaker 1: it just depends on what you're projecting for Delaney Walker,

1155
00:56:57,800 --> 00:56:59,520
Speaker 1: you know. I mean, I mean, he's going to dominate

1156
00:56:59,560 --> 00:57:01,919
Speaker 1: the target here again, but yeah, I probably will, which

1157
00:57:01,960 --> 00:57:04,920
Speaker 1: he which he certainly could. Um, But I agree with you.

1158
00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:06,520
Speaker 1: I think that that Sharp is going to push a

1159
00:57:06,640 --> 00:57:09,160
Speaker 1: hundred and that's I mean, he'said Lisa Steel at his

1160
00:57:09,200 --> 00:57:11,040
Speaker 1: ADP and that's the bottom line, all right to Lanny

1161
00:57:11,080 --> 00:57:14,879
Speaker 1: Walker him, I love him to a hundred and thirty

1162
00:57:14,920 --> 00:57:17,520
Speaker 1: three targets last year and and he was he was

1163
00:57:17,560 --> 00:57:20,280
Speaker 1: good man, he was good. Uh he did Uh. He

1164
00:57:20,400 --> 00:57:23,360
Speaker 1: obviously got the most targets of any NFL tight end.

1165
00:57:24,040 --> 00:57:26,400
Speaker 1: I don't necessarily know if that happens again this year?

1166
00:57:26,600 --> 00:57:29,760
Speaker 1: Why not? Why not? I mean, like we just sat

1167
00:57:29,840 --> 00:57:31,640
Speaker 1: here and talked about to J Sharp's being like a

1168
00:57:31,800 --> 00:57:35,000
Speaker 1: Dee deep sleeper. We're talking about Richard Matthews doesn't fire

1169
00:57:35,040 --> 00:57:38,960
Speaker 1: anybody up? I mean, why not? The Titans haven't exactly

1170
00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:41,320
Speaker 1: been great when it comes to developing wide receiver talent

1171
00:57:41,440 --> 00:57:44,360
Speaker 1: in their history. I mean, look at the the failed,

1172
00:57:44,640 --> 00:57:48,280
Speaker 1: the failed fantasy carcasses of Kindle Wright and Justin Hunter.

1173
00:57:48,760 --> 00:57:51,000
Speaker 1: Justin Hunter? Might I even make the team? Right? I mean, so,

1174
00:57:51,760 --> 00:57:54,840
Speaker 1: why why can't he see another hundred and thirty targets? Yeah?

1175
00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:57,960
Speaker 1: I guess Gosh, it's such a big number though, and

1176
00:57:58,080 --> 00:58:00,200
Speaker 1: especially if if we're talking about the steam Warnt run

1177
00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:02,000
Speaker 1: the ball a lot, maybe they won't be able to

1178
00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:05,880
Speaker 1: run because their defense is not great either. But I

1179
00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:09,600
Speaker 1: don't know. We'll see. Um, he's where, Where's where? Where's

1180
00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:12,480
Speaker 1: the landy Walker? Going? Right now? Round eighth round? That's

1181
00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:15,240
Speaker 1: a great price for him. Value great, he's a fine

1182
00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:17,080
Speaker 1: he's a fine pick there, all right? I gotta do

1183
00:58:17,160 --> 00:58:20,400
Speaker 1: one last Familyague update, right, all right? At least I

1184
00:58:20,560 --> 00:58:23,960
Speaker 1: think So here's the problem. I'm gonna throw this out

1185
00:58:24,040 --> 00:58:26,720
Speaker 1: as a caveat Adam Rink tells me the league is full.

1186
00:58:26,840 --> 00:58:30,880
Speaker 1: I think he's wrong. Um, I think there is one

1187
00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:34,560
Speaker 1: spot left. But Adam Rank did tell me that the

1188
00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:38,400
Speaker 1: league is full. I went to the league. There is

1189
00:58:38,520 --> 00:58:44,120
Speaker 1: still one spot open. But again I'm I'm I'm throwing

1190
00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:47,640
Speaker 1: this out there, not as a Steve Harvey thing, but

1191
00:58:47,760 --> 00:58:50,600
Speaker 1: I'm just letting you know, Bra, when I pick you,

1192
00:58:51,200 --> 00:58:55,760
Speaker 1: there's a possibility, it's a fifty fifty chance that the

1193
00:58:55,880 --> 00:58:58,920
Speaker 1: league is full. But today we got to make a choice.

1194
00:58:59,280 --> 00:59:01,680
Speaker 1: Like today's the last day, like we have. We've been

1195
00:59:01,720 --> 00:59:04,360
Speaker 1: pushing this off way too long. Um, and today's the

1196
00:59:04,440 --> 00:59:09,520
Speaker 1: last day. So whoever, I'm picking this guy. Um this uh,

1197
00:59:09,800 --> 00:59:13,080
Speaker 1: this dude by the name of carl Vin Rodney at

1198
00:59:13,280 --> 00:59:16,640
Speaker 1: on Hiatus. I like the Twitter handle, I liked the name.

1199
00:59:17,240 --> 00:59:20,880
Speaker 1: He had his eight year old son write me a letter.

1200
00:59:21,720 --> 00:59:26,800
Speaker 1: In addition to subscribing, rating, and reviewing the podcast, he

1201
00:59:26,920 --> 00:59:30,400
Speaker 1: had his son, eight years old write me a letter.

1202
00:59:30,560 --> 00:59:33,280
Speaker 1: Dear Mr co my dad asked me to write you

1203
00:59:33,320 --> 00:59:35,240
Speaker 1: a letter to get him into the Danger Zone League.

1204
00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:37,440
Speaker 1: He listens to you guys all the time in the
