Speaker 1: little mock draft yesterday and we're gonna talk about it

35
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 1: and the fantasy things are happening. It has been a

36
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 1: while since we addressed the mail bag. We will be

37
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,640

00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 1: to leave you guys out in the cold, but you know,

39
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:08,919
Speaker 1: we're you know. Correspondence takes a while. Usps that got

40
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:12,359

42
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:17,239
Speaker 1: questions as possible. We're gonna be doing mostly today. I

43
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,520
Speaker 1: think we're gonna be talking about the mock draft that

44
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 1: we had done earlier this week, actually on Monday, UH

45
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:28,520
Speaker 1: ten teams. It was all NFL dot com guys, basically, um,

46
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 1: you know, all the folks you love to hate here

47
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:34,919
Speaker 1: in the podcast as well, and some producers too. So

48
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,679
Speaker 1: we're gonna be talking about a full breakdown of the

49
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 1: experts mock draft two points. Oh but first, let's start

50
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 1: with our top headlines, the camera highlights in the world

51
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 1: of sport, Breaking breaking Newsrealy continue to follow breaking news news.

52
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 1: How'd your wife? All right, Let's start in atlant Um

53
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 1: not great news, where the Atlanta Falcons running back coach

54
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 1: uh told reporters that he told the Atlanta Journal Constitution

55
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:13,399
Speaker 1: that the Falcons would like to reduce the Davante Freeman's workload.

56
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 1: They would like to reduce his workload. They said it

57
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 1: was kind of a contradictory statement. It was something along

58
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 1: the lines of, hey, he was great, but he can

59
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 1: be better. You know how he's gonna be better. We're

60
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 1: gonna give him less work. Wait, what how does that work? No,

61
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:29,360
Speaker 1: but they were talking about how they'd like him to

62
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 1: be fresher down the stretch. We saw last year too

63
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 1: man yards per carry the final five games. I believe

64
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: it was three point oh six yards per carry down

65
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 1: the stretch there for the Atlanta Falcons running back And

66
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 1: quite honestly, it's a big reason why I was concerned.

67
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 1: I put him on the bus list here for the

68
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,560
Speaker 1: draft kit NFL dot com S last draft kit. But uh,

69
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 1: and I know a lot of folks were drafting him

70
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 1: in that ten to twelve range. But I think we're

71
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 1: starting to see him slide with Yeah. Absolutely, I mean

72
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 1: he was starting to slide a little bit before beforehand,

73
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 1: and now because people were afraid Tevin Coleman was going

74
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: to eat into his workload, and now that it's basically

75
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 1: set in stone, he's sliding down. Which you know you

76
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 1: said it wud seemed contraintuitive what they said, but it

77
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 1: can make sense because he had a massive workload last year.

78
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 1: It was of all the offensive opportunities between targets and

79
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,240
Speaker 1: carries went to Davonta Freeman, the second highest mark in

80
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 1: the league behind on the Adrian Peterson of the offense

81
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,719
Speaker 1: went went at him, so, you know, and he definitely

82
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 1: wore down, as he said, his arts per carry over

83
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 1: the final five games or three point three six, three

84
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 1: point three three, two point to four or three point

85
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 1: three two and three point oh four. And I mean,

86
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:45,719
Speaker 1: you know, some people say, hey, look at the schedule.

87
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,840
Speaker 1: He he had Carolina twice down the stretch. I get it,

88
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:51,479
Speaker 1: But if you watch the games, he didn't. He didn't

89
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 1: look great running between the tackles there for for the Falcons.

90
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,599
Speaker 1: I mean, remember, he wasn't originally pegged to be the

91
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 1: starter last year. It's true. I mean it was Tevin Coleman.

92
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,839
Speaker 1: Coleman gets hurt, Freeman comes in, goes bananas for a

93
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 1: few weeks, and at that point it was hard to

94
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 1: get him out of that starting gig. But um, you know,

95
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 1: I mean that was always the caveat that a lot

96
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 1: of us looked at coming into this year. Is that

97
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 1: for as as great as Freeman was for the majority

98
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,719
Speaker 1: of last season, he's not their guy. I mean, the

99
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:23,479
Speaker 1: coaching staff that's in place now, Tevin Coleman is their guy,

100
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,480
Speaker 1: and I think we always had that fear that at

101
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,160
Speaker 1: some point they would try to go back to their guy.

102
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:30,159
Speaker 1: You know, the other thing I saw in this article

103
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,479
Speaker 1: two right, was that was that Kyle Shanahan has done

104
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 1: a great job of featuring one guy, I mean, really

105
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 1: feeding one guy and a name that I totally forgot,

106
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:46,600
Speaker 1: Steve Slayton got like twelve hundred yards um and Kyle

107
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 1: Shanahan offense. So it's kind of like, all right, um,

108
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:54,599
Speaker 1: you would think that there'd be one guy in the

109
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 1: backfield that they would feature heavily, and we saw that

110
00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 1: last year. But then again we all saw mccleveland featuring

111
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 1: two guys very equally. Yep. You might you might think

112
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 1: to like maybe their plan going to last year was

113
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,279
Speaker 1: to have a kind of a committee between Freeman and Coleman.

114
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,160
Speaker 1: I just worked out in Freeman's favor because Coleman got

115
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 1: injured and then Freeman exploded and so they couldn't move

116
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 1: away from him. How about if the plan was to

117
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:20,359
Speaker 1: give Tevin Coleman the featured role. He got injured, broken ribs,

118
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 1: missed two game, two and a half games, and then

119
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 1: Davonte Freeman just went nuts. Right, So I think, I mean,

120
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,680
Speaker 1: there's some regression baked into this seven touches. Are you

121
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 1: guys comfortable taking him in that middle of the second round? Well, uh,

122
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,360
Speaker 1: spoiler alert, that's where I took him in the mock draft,

123
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 1: and I was not comfortable with it. Immediately after made that,

124
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 1: I made the pick. I would have rather gone Jamal Charles,

125
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,039
Speaker 1: and then this report came out and I w wanted

126
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 1: to vomit. So here, I mean, here's the thing, just

127
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 1: a sneak, sneak peek here at the mock draft at

128
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:51,640
Speaker 1: the end of the first second round. Rather um, so

129
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 1: you took Freeman middle of the second round, and the

130
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 1: three running backs that went after him, Jamal Charles, Doug Martin,

131
00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 1: Eddie Lacey, mark Ingram. I mean at this point, I

132
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,279
Speaker 1: would have rather had any of those guys, That's what

133
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Right, Like, Freeman probably slides back to the

134
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 1: back end of two and and maybe early third. He's

135
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 1: still going to be able to produce, He's still going

136
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 1: to see a lot of touches. But you're right, there

137
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 1: are guys that could have a higher workload above him

138
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 1: and probably would lean in. All right, important but important

139
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 1: question here, James co middle of the second round, late

140
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:24,080
Speaker 1: second round. Who would you rather say? Don't do it? Freeman,

141
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 1: I know where you're going, don't go there? Are you going? There?

142
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 1: Oh man? Oh god? Um. If I was faced with

143
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 1: those two options, what do I do? James closes the

144
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 1: laptop and leaves the draft. We won't force you to decide,

145
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 1: do I think? Al Sean, do I just say forget

146
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 1: it and just go wide receiver? Probably that's probably what

147
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 1: you would end up doing. That's probably that's probably what

148
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,000
Speaker 1: I James co would end up doing, which I'm not

149
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 1: necessarily advocating for for the general population. There, All right,

150
00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 1: let's let's move on. How about Todd Gurley Number one?

151
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 1: Todd Curley, Los Angeles headline, Los Angeles. Todd Gurley has

152
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 1: some fantasy advice for the folks out there. He says

153
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:15,040
Speaker 1: take him number one. Overall. Hard to disagree. I mean,

154
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 1: you know, Antonio Brown, Aldell Beckham Jr. But certainly Todd

155
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:23,040
Speaker 1: Curley is in the mix. Put up massive numbers in

156
00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 1: a ten game stretch last year. The one concern I

157
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:28,680
Speaker 1: have is that I mentioned on the other podcast, Rich

158
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 1: Rebar made a good note of it that in the

159
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 1: three games where the Rams were trailing by a touchdown

160
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 1: or more by halftime. He only saw I think thirty

161
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,200
Speaker 1: four combined touches in three games, which is not what

162
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 1: you want for a feature back. However, Rams have a

163
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 1: good combined combined in three games. That's uh not good.

164
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,199
Speaker 1: Rams have a good defense. They're gonna want to feature

165
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 1: their most talented players, so they would hopefully mitigate that

166
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,079
Speaker 1: by giving them ball more early franchise you, I mean,

167
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,360
Speaker 1: you did a pretty good look at at running backs

168
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 1: this offseason. Um, your take away? Here's my thing. When

169
00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,560
Speaker 1: I think about Todd Gurley, I think Jared Goff will

170
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:01,839
Speaker 1: improve the offense. I don't know what if he'll improve

171
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 1: it in the first four or five games, but certainly

172
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 1: in the backstretch. I think he's gonna help improve the

173
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:09,240
Speaker 1: stabilize that offense quite a bit. And then I think about,

174
00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:11,520
Speaker 1: you know, the offensive line. I think they've played okay,

175
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:14,720
Speaker 1: not great last year. I think they will improve. But

176
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 1: strong defenses and strong running games they go hand in hand, right,

177
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:22,720
Speaker 1: And that's what I really like about Todd Gurley. Yeah,

178
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 1: and I I said this in my article, um, from

179
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago, looking at second year running backs,

180
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 1: I feel like Todd Gurley is one of those few

181
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 1: running backs in the league where his team leans on

182
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:36,439
Speaker 1: him in the way that the Vikings lean on Adrian Peterson.

183
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,240
Speaker 1: That's right, he is the guy no matter what the

184
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:42,559
Speaker 1: situation is. And I mean, why not take a guy

185
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:46,640
Speaker 1: who's gonna see that volume first overall in your fantasy job.

186
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 1: I do think an argument could be made for David

187
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:52,679
Speaker 1: Johnson as well, in terms of you know, not one overall, probably,

188
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:54,720
Speaker 1: but if you were facing like the third or fourth

189
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:58,320
Speaker 1: pick um, you know, David, I think an argument could

190
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 1: be made with David just because the offense of better,

191
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 1: so much better. The other thing is that girl is

192
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 1: talented enough to transcend that, so yeah, his talent levels on.

193
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 1: The biggest question for Todd Gurley, and I see it

194
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:17,040
Speaker 1: because you know I've been driving the uh Tavon Austin

195
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:20,080
Speaker 1: bandwagon too, is whether or not the coaching staff has

196
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,440
Speaker 1: figured out how to use one or both of these guys,

197
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,600
Speaker 1: because that's always been my frustration that they've had talent

198
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,840
Speaker 1: on this RAMS roster for a while, it just didn't.

199
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:29,559
Speaker 1: It's sort of like you know, when you buy a

200
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,720
Speaker 1: video game and you wouldn't bother to read the instruction manuals.

201
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 1: So you just throw it in there and you get

202
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 1: your you get your butt kicked a few times, and

203
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 1: then you're like, oh, maybe I should read and what

204
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:41,600
Speaker 1: the buttons do? Right that? That's That's kind of how

205
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 1: I feel about the Rams coaching staff. Like they plugged

206
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,319
Speaker 1: in Tavon Austin and they ran him around for a

207
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 1: little bit and he got smacked around. Not like that,

208
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,079
Speaker 1: But now I think they looked at and said, oh,

209
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 1: maybe we should like read the instruction man. You want

210
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,200
Speaker 1: to figure out what these guys do best. So hopefully

211
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 1: they've they've got a But isn't it amazing too that

212
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 1: if you were if you're able to add a solid quarterback,

213
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:07,920
Speaker 1: Because I mean, let's be honest here, the Ramps have

214
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 1: been floundering around at the quarterback position. Nick Foles. You know,

215
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:19,480
Speaker 1: we thought, uh, no, okay, we thought who was the

216
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:23,520
Speaker 1: other guy? Austin Davis? Holy he was actually in Cleveland

217
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 1: last year? But uh and then somebody or maybe he

218
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 1: was then I don't remember. It was bad. It was bad.

219
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:32,400
Speaker 1: Let's move on. Why are we talking about? Because I

220
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:35,360
Speaker 1: think Jared goff will will help stabilize that position. I

221
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:38,680
Speaker 1: think as a season rules on. I think the offense

222
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 1: will get a lot. Somebody has his Colbart goggles on. Anyways,

223
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 1: we're gonna go to Cleveland. The Browns running back coach

224
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:52,280
Speaker 1: calls Duke Johnson quote the ultimate weapon. Well, it's like

225
00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,959
Speaker 1: a it's like a clip from an action movie trailer,

226
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 1: the ultimate weapon in a world where you can't find

227
00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 1: a starting run back, Hugh Jackson has I mean, come on,

228
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 1: come on, this is this is the height of off

229
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 1: season hype trainery. Hype trainery. But I said earlier to

230
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 1: the Browns didn't draft any any running backs this year,

231
00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:19,560
Speaker 1: so they yeah, in a draft that had a lot

232
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 1: of running back a lot of good running back classes year.

233
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 1: So they gotta be talking up their guys that they

234
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,440
Speaker 1: hung onto and you know, boost their confidence and you know,

235
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 1: throw throw, throw it around a little bit, say that

236
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 1: they're talented, even if they you know, might not be

237
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:35,800
Speaker 1: the most talented guys. I'll tell you what though, man, Like,

238
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 1: if I ever needed a hype man, I'm gonna call

239
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,720
Speaker 1: Hugh Jackson because this insane. He shows up in Cleveland

240
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 1: and he says that the combination of Johnson and crow

241
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 1: Well or like the you know, the two of the

242
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 1: best he's ever seen, or some two of them, Jeremy

243
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:51,880
Speaker 1: Hill and Geoe Bernard. The earth moved when he watched

244
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,680
Speaker 1: practice exactly Like if I need a hype man or

245
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 1: just somebody to help boost myself confidence, just to come

246
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,880
Speaker 1: and give me a pep talk, I'm calling you know.

247
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:03,960
Speaker 1: But dude, Duke is a huge um like mid round

248
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,600
Speaker 1: sleeper and PPR leagues. He's going to line up as

249
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 1: a wide receiver whole bunch because they have no other

250
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,439
Speaker 1: wide receivers. What do you have sixty plus sixty one

251
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 1: catches last year and seventy four targets. That's gonna go up.

252
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 1: That's crazy, that's gonna go up his his reception total.

253
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:20,199
Speaker 1: I think we'll go up. Holy probably that's they're a

254
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:21,840
Speaker 1: bad team that that could be trailing a lot with

255
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,520
Speaker 1: a rebuilding team that could be trailing a lot, and uh,

256
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:27,480
Speaker 1: a good way to try and politically ground they're bad,

257
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:29,480
Speaker 1: trying to be need to try to be their offense

258
00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:31,679
Speaker 1: go bad. The way to do that is to use

259
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 1: your playmakers like Duke Johnson in space, out of the

260
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:35,560
Speaker 1: backfield in mismatches. So I'm a franchise, I think his

261
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:38,320
Speaker 1: reception total could climb and that's what gives him a

262
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:40,199
Speaker 1: safe floor is like a flex option in the mid

263
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:42,480
Speaker 1: to late rounds in standard leagues. Alright, so he went

264
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,640
Speaker 1: to Adam ranking round seven in our ten team mock,

265
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 1: which I think is pretty good. Yeah. I like that.

266
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,720
Speaker 1: That Yeah, solid spot. Here's the thing here. Here are

267
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,760
Speaker 1: the running backs that went after him, right, Jeremy Hill, No,

268
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:57,040
Speaker 1: Danny Woodhead, No, Jeremy Lankford. I mean I like them,

269
00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:00,319
Speaker 1: but again, I think Duke Johnson is a better value, uh,

270
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:03,240
Speaker 1: in that seventh round. So yeah, and then and then

271
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 1: what happened Frank Gore Abdullah? Yeah yeah, So I mean,

272
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 1: like like you mentioned, uh, you know, is he he's

273
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,960
Speaker 1: in an interesting tier group, but certainly, you know, I

274
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 1: would rather have him the Jeremy Hill. I don't think

275
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 1: there's any question about it. If that's kind of what

276
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 1: you're looking at in round seven. Um, alright, let's talk

277
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 1: about this mock draft, yep. Alright, so I'm gonna give

278
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 1: you the draft order. Most of the names you've heard of, uh,

279
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 1: some of the folks you haven't their NFL Fantasy Life producers. Uh.

280
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,640
Speaker 1: So they kind of worked behind the scenes of the

281
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 1: of everyone's favorite fantasy show. Here. So we'll start with

282
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:39,720
Speaker 1: Alex Wilcome producer, Dylan Milner a senior producer. Uh, and

283
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 1: then from there it's Matt Harmon, who was super excited

284
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,280
Speaker 1: today to meet Allen Robinson in person. It's always fun

285
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:49,200
Speaker 1: you get to see kids meet there. Here did they

286
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 1: bro Hug, I don't know the hero good. Matt money

287
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 1: Smith picked fourth, Adam Rank five, Alex Gelhar, then the

288
00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:03,480
Speaker 1: franch guys. Marcus I was ninth, and then Michael Fabriano

289
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:07,760
Speaker 1: rounded out the ten. All right, here's round one. Antonio Brown,

290
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:13,040
Speaker 1: Todd Gurley, oh b J, David Johnson, Julio Jones to rank.

291
00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 1: I think he was super happy with that pick Uh,

292
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:21,480
Speaker 1: levy On Bell to gelhar Zeke Elliott to franchise New

293
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,600
Speaker 1: Copkins to Marcus I took a tree and Peterson at

294
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 1: nine that's value and then Rob Gronkowski at tim. Pretty

295
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:34,040
Speaker 1: pretty chalky first round. I think I think at this

296
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 1: point we're starting to zero in across you know us here, YEAHO,

297
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 1: ESPN wherever where we see these marks, We're kind of

298
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 1: starting to zero in on what the first round is

299
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 1: gonna look like. Because it's these guys with the built

300
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:46,640
Speaker 1: in good workloads you know that the top wide receivers

301
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 1: Gurley Bell, Peterson, Elliott, and then either Gronkowski or you

302
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:53,040
Speaker 1: know a J. Green can climb into that first round

303
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 1: as well. But so there really were no surprises. I mean,

304
00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:57,800
Speaker 1: I was happy to get Bell at six. I think

305
00:15:57,840 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 1: we're all pretty happy with the values of our picks

306
00:15:59,920 --> 00:16:02,800
Speaker 1: and the back half of that first round. I was

307
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:06,280
Speaker 1: hoping beyond hope that somehow Ezekiel Elliot would fallow to me,

308
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 1: but uh he did not. You know, this is the thing,

309
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 1: and I just wrote this to you alex Um in

310
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 1: our mock draft takeaways, but I I don't mind the

311
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 1: ninth or tenth pick in this year's draft. Traditionally, the

312
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 1: ninth or tenth pick is generally not great in terms

313
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 1: of trying to win a championship. But this year, I

314
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:28,200
Speaker 1: don't mind it at all because I think you're really

315
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:32,280
Speaker 1: gonna get some really good value. I mean again, at

316
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 1: pick nine, don't be surprised if you see Levian Bell,

317
00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 1: if you see Zeke Elliott, if you see new Coopkins

318
00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:41,120
Speaker 1: at number nine, all those guys. I would love to

319
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 1: have all those guys on my team. But Adrian Peterson

320
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,880
Speaker 1: and nine, I'll take it all day looks h and

321
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 1: by the way, everybody, you can find the full mock

322
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 1: draft results, the team by team breakdowns with each expert's

323
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 1: little strategy or analysis of the draft, and fabianas picked

324
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,680
Speaker 1: by pick Analysis at NFL dot com slash Fantasy. It's

325
00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:00,360
Speaker 1: the main piece on the on the page age there,

326
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:01,880
Speaker 1: and it's in the app as well, and I think

327
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:03,640
Speaker 1: all of us have tweeted it, So get on it

328
00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 1: and get studying, all right, franchise, give me. Let's let's

329
00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:08,600
Speaker 1: break down your your draft a little bit. You will,

330
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:11,360
Speaker 1: you picked from what the eight whole seventh, seventh hole?

331
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 1: And so it came to me at seven and I

332
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 1: was trying to decide between Peterson and Elliott, and I

333
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:19,880
Speaker 1: opted for Elliott just because he's younger. And every week

334
00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:22,119
Speaker 1: a new story comes out saying how his workload is

335
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:27,040
Speaker 1: gonna increase by another hundred carries, He's gonna just get

336
00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:30,359
Speaker 1: all of the touches. I like it. This is how

337
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:35,639
Speaker 1: the first half of your draft broke down, basically, Zeke, Elliott,

338
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:39,439
Speaker 1: des Bryant, Cam Newton, Brandon Marshall, Thomas Rawls And so

339
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:41,960
Speaker 1: did you like it? Did you like your draft? I

340
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:47,320
Speaker 1: kind of love this so, so basically, what how I've

341
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:50,440
Speaker 1: been sort of pegging this is I went risk reward.

342
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,160
Speaker 1: Elliott has never stepped foot on a football field. Does.

343
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:57,440
Speaker 1: Bryant's coming off a huge ankle injury. Cam Newton, I mean,

344
00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,680
Speaker 1: he's due for some regression, but he's still an elite

345
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 1: fantasy quarterback. I'm cool there. Don't usually take a quarterback

346
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,880
Speaker 1: that early. Brandon Marshall. Nobody knows who the Jets quarterback

347
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:08,640
Speaker 1: is going to be. Hopefully it's Ryan Fitzpatrick. If so,

348
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,600
Speaker 1: I'm totally cool with Marshall at four um as my

349
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 1: wide receiver too. And then Thomas Rawls with my fifth pick.

350
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:18,160
Speaker 1: He's also coming off an ankle injury, so there's some

351
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 1: risk involved there. Nor knows what the Seattle backfield is

352
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:25,560
Speaker 1: gonna look like. Um, But I sort of backed up

353
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:28,520
Speaker 1: those risky picks with some depth later on. I got

354
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:32,040
Speaker 1: Jeremy Hill, Chris Ivory. I reached for Arian Foster to

355
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:34,840
Speaker 1: um later and he took him in around twelve. Just

356
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:37,439
Speaker 1: a rando Arian Foster pick. Yeah, where the hell did

357
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:39,560
Speaker 1: that come from? Yeah? So just I don't know he's

358
00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 1: gonna end up on a team eventually, I think, But

359
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 1: who knows what his role will be. All right, Uh, wiz,

360
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 1: give me a breakdown of your team. Um, did you

361
00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:50,639
Speaker 1: like your draft? Well? Uh? With with Bell coming to

362
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,359
Speaker 1: me yet at six, I was figuring unless a J

363
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:55,159
Speaker 1: Green would fall to me magically in the middle of

364
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 1: round two, which he did not. Marcus took him in

365
00:18:57,119 --> 00:19:00,920
Speaker 1: round two, I was gonna lean running back heavy. As

366
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 1: I mentioned off the top, I was a little I

367
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:04,479
Speaker 1: was disappointed immediately in the Freeman pick, even more so

368
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:07,800
Speaker 1: when all those reports came out should have gone Jamal Charles.

369
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 1: But I started off with three running backs, and I've

370
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:12,359
Speaker 1: got three guys that could project to finish in the

371
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 1: top fifteen in their position, h Levan Bell, Di Notte,

372
00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:17,800
Speaker 1: Freeman and Lashawn McCoy. Because after that, I believe if

373
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:19,600
Speaker 1: you want to go running back heavy, this is still

374
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:21,399
Speaker 1: a year to do it. So many people are scared

375
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:23,600
Speaker 1: off because of all of the death that hit the

376
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:27,040
Speaker 1: position last year. Uh As I like to not so

377
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 1: lightly call it, but because the wide receiver is so deep,

378
00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,119
Speaker 1: like you look at it, I none of my guys

379
00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:35,240
Speaker 1: are are elite options. But I grabbed Brandon Cooks, Jeremy Macklin,

380
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,639
Speaker 1: Michael Floyd and Emmanuel Sanders with my next four picks.

381
00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 1: So all of those guys I have across the board

382
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,159
Speaker 1: strong number two. Sanders is a little bit of the

383
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 1: weaker one because of his unsettled quarterback situation. But Cooks

384
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 1: was I think just outside or just in the top

385
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:52,719
Speaker 1: twelve scoring wide receivers last year. Macklin could get up

386
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:54,479
Speaker 1: there if he stays healthy because he's the number one

387
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,000
Speaker 1: option in that offense with a defense that's couldn't have

388
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 1: some big injuries and might not be as stout as

389
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 1: it was a year ago. And then Michael Floyd, him

390
00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 1: and John Brown are both great breakout options and they

391
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 1: went back to back to franchise and me in this draft,

392
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,440
Speaker 1: that Cardinals offense is one of the best in the league.

393
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 1: So I'm all about having a piece of that passing attack,

394
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,520
Speaker 1: all right. So, uh mt M got Marcus Grant. Can

395
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:16,439
Speaker 1: you break down your draft? Did you like it? I

396
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:18,560
Speaker 1: did like my draft. I you know, I kind of

397
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:22,480
Speaker 1: tend to do my strategy based on in part where

398
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:24,320
Speaker 1: I'm drafting, where I am in the order, and then

399
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:26,879
Speaker 1: what happens ahead of me, and so being in the

400
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 1: eight spot kind of gave me some time to see

401
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:31,399
Speaker 1: how things are gonna fall, and so it's sort of

402
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:34,400
Speaker 1: worked out that I went zero rbs the first couple

403
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:36,760
Speaker 1: of rounds, so I was able to get uh new Copkins,

404
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:38,440
Speaker 1: which I was left with a dilemma at eight. I

405
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:41,000
Speaker 1: mean I had I had Hopkins there, I saw Adrian Peterson.

406
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,640
Speaker 1: I even considered a J. Green at that spot, and

407
00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:47,479
Speaker 1: I decided to go with Hopkins, feeling like, Okay, this

408
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 1: dude is the playmaker. He's got you know, right. I

409
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:51,880
Speaker 1: can't say he's got bigger upside than all these other guys.

410
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:54,240
Speaker 1: I just he's the one I felt more comfortable with.

411
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 1: So that it happened to work out and we get

412
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,879
Speaker 1: to the turn a J. Green still sitting there. Uh

413
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,639
Speaker 1: mean I went Hopkins, you immediately went Adrian Peterson James.

414
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 1: So I came back with a J. Green, which is fine,

415
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,520
Speaker 1: and doing that, I still felt comfortable by the time

416
00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 1: I came back to me in the third round that

417
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,080
Speaker 1: I was comfortable with the running backs that were still left.

418
00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:18,200
Speaker 1: I'm huge about C. J. Anderson, mostly because I think

419
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:19,760
Speaker 1: he bounced his bag. I think what we saw from

420
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:22,119
Speaker 1: him at the end of last year was more indicative

421
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,120
Speaker 1: of who he is. Plus us kids from Valo gotta

422
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 1: stick together. Um, so I I went with him. I

423
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:30,600
Speaker 1: was I was debating between him or Carlos Hide. I

424
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:33,840
Speaker 1: went Anderson. You followed up with Hides, So it was

425
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:37,359
Speaker 1: fine there. Um. I mean the things that I really liked.

426
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:42,440
Speaker 1: I liked getting Greg Olsen in was that the sixth round, uh,

427
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:44,200
Speaker 1: you know, as the third tied end off the board.

428
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:46,879
Speaker 1: I was very very happy with that. The other thing

429
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:51,840
Speaker 1: about the draft, and this comes with knowing who is

430
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:54,760
Speaker 1: in your league, knowing how the draft goes. I know,

431
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 1: but because of our league quarterbacks, you can wait forever.

432
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 1: They'll get a quarterback. I mean, proof positive of that

433
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 1: is FABS taking Ben Roethlisberger at the end of round nine. Um,

434
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 1: we get to eleven, where I felt like, Okay, now's

435
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:13,720
Speaker 1: the time for me to go get a quarterback. Going

436
00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:15,920
Speaker 1: in a round eleven, I was just expecting that that

437
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 1: most everybody was gonna be gone, that Eli Manning would

438
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:20,240
Speaker 1: still be hanging around near the top of the list,

439
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,399
Speaker 1: because he was the guy I was really targeting. I

440
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:24,639
Speaker 1: get to eleven and I have a choice between Carson

441
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:28,120
Speaker 1: Palmer and Eli Manning. It's pretty good, very very good,

442
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,440
Speaker 1: very excited about it. Love both those guys think they're

443
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:32,480
Speaker 1: both gonna have big years, all things being equal, I

444
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,760
Speaker 1: take the USC guy. It's really it's so funny because

445
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:36,919
Speaker 1: in every other round and all the odd rounds, you

446
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:41,800
Speaker 1: made my decision so easy. Every single round. First round,

447
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:43,720
Speaker 1: I'm like, Okay, if it gets down to me, I'm

448
00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:45,920
Speaker 1: looking at new Copkins or Adrian Peter. I'll just take

449
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,760
Speaker 1: the leftovers there. And then in round three, I'm like,

450
00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:51,639
Speaker 1: all right, is Carlos Hide gonna be available? Because if not,

451
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:55,080
Speaker 1: I'll just take Amari Cooper right And then basically we

452
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:57,880
Speaker 1: just we really were just kind of um ping polling

453
00:22:57,920 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 1: you back and forth, and you mentioned Eli Manning and

454
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 1: round eleven I took him one pick right after her

455
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 1: Carson Palm pick. So um. And the thing I like

456
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,439
Speaker 1: about Eli Manning a little bit more than Carson Palmer

457
00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 1: because I think a lot of folks are gonna be

458
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 1: facing this dilemma high profile names. They both played pretty

459
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:17,080
Speaker 1: good offenses. Carson Palmer at times was a top five

460
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 1: quarterback in Fantasy. Last year, Eli Manning I think finished

461
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:23,600
Speaker 1: in the top ten, but of course he was very

462
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,720
Speaker 1: up and down. Uh. There was one game where I

463
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:29,040
Speaker 1: think he had seven touches. Yeah, he did. He had

464
00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:31,760
Speaker 1: six that game. Uh, and that there were I think

465
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:33,879
Speaker 1: three or four games where he had like five or

466
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 1: fewer points. Uh. The reason I like Eli Manning this

467
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:40,840
Speaker 1: year though, um more durable than Carson Palmer. But also

468
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 1: I think with the new I don't want to say

469
00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:45,440
Speaker 1: the new offense, but the new old offense, I think

470
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 1: they're gonna be more up tempo. I think there's gonna

471
00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:50,879
Speaker 1: be a lot more passing plays um. And quite frankly,

472
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 1: the draft pick of Sterling Shepherd to me as well

473
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:56,640
Speaker 1: as also gonna open up the pass attack Odell Beckham Jr.

474
00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:58,919
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna take a step forward. So I

475
00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,359
Speaker 1: think there's just a lot like about Eli Manning. And

476
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 1: again I took him in round eleven. There's not a

477
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:07,920
Speaker 1: whole lot of Even if he doesn't pan out, I'm

478
00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:10,400
Speaker 1: not really stressed out about it too much. Now keep

479
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:14,280
Speaker 1: in mind, folks, you can take Eli Manning or Carson

480
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,720
Speaker 1: Palmer in round eleven when everybody else in your league

481
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 1: is waiting on a quarterback. Just no. I mean it's true,

482
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 1: it's not in NFL dot Com, in the in the

483
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,639
Speaker 1: mock drafts that we've seen thus far, Eli Manning I

484
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:30,320
Speaker 1: think I believe is going the eighth round. Probably, yeah,

485
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:34,280
Speaker 1: probably closer than There are plenty There are plenty of

486
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 1: leagues where quarterbacks have come off the board a lot earlier.

487
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:39,680
Speaker 1: You know they they're going to be leagues where you've

488
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:43,080
Speaker 1: got Aaron Rodgers and Cam Newton probably in the second round.

489
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 1: But I will say this, I think when you get

490
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,159
Speaker 1: to a round eleven, I think in almost in in

491
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 1: any ten team league, in any ten team league, I

492
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:54,399
Speaker 1: think some combination of Carson Palmer, Eli Manning, Derek Carr,

493
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:59,840
Speaker 1: Tyrod Taylor, and Kirk Cousins will be available. Philip Rivers

494
00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:04,199
Speaker 1: will most certainly be available in round eleven um. And

495
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:06,800
Speaker 1: that's what I mean. The I just was like, hey, listen,

496
00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:09,440
Speaker 1: when I get to round eleven, round twelve, I'll address

497
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:13,480
Speaker 1: the quarterback position of those five or six guys I'll

498
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:15,480
Speaker 1: gladly take it's it's super deep and even if you

499
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:19,680
Speaker 1: miss out on them, Mariotta, Winston, lots of lots of options.

500
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:21,879
Speaker 1: But James Marcus kind of done with his draft there,

501
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:23,119
Speaker 1: why don't you walk us through a little bit of

502
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 1: a your stretch. So so here's the thing, you know,

503
00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:28,000
Speaker 1: when you I really feel like this year, if you're

504
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:32,600
Speaker 1: drafting later, uh in your draft, in your draft order,

505
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 1: rather like, so I have the ninth pick out of ten,

506
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:37,159
Speaker 1: even if I had the ninth pick out of twelve

507
00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:39,959
Speaker 1: or tenth pick out of twelve or something, Um, I

508
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:42,360
Speaker 1: think you can go running back heavy and I think

509
00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:44,600
Speaker 1: you're gonna get great value there. Now, I'm not saying

510
00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 1: ignore uh the elite wide receivers. Allen Robinson to me

511
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:54,120
Speaker 1: is still an elite guy, so I'll take him. Um.

512
00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:56,600
Speaker 1: But you know, I'm really focused on if I have

513
00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:59,080
Speaker 1: one of those later picks, really focused on trying to

514
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:02,320
Speaker 1: get wrong at the running back position because there's so

515
00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 1: many wide receivers I really like in new situations, UM,

516
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:07,760
Speaker 1: that I think are going a little later than they

517
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:11,439
Speaker 1: could be. Doug Baldwin, Dante Moncrief, I took, Marvin Jones,

518
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:14,480
Speaker 1: I took Nelson Aghilore. I took a fifteenth round flyer on.

519
00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 1: So I mean again, in standard scoring leagues, you need

520
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,879
Speaker 1: two wide receivers, right, That's it. I think that's it.

521
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 1: So you know, when I look at Doug Baldwin, Dante Moncrief,

522
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:25,719
Speaker 1: Marvin Jones, Nelson Agloor, I need one of those guys

523
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:29,359
Speaker 1: to pan out and and I'm confident that one of

524
00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:32,400
Speaker 1: those guys, uh will pan out pretty well. And when

525
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:34,680
Speaker 1: you pair him with an Allen Robinson to go along

526
00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:39,560
Speaker 1: with Adrian Peterson, Carlos High, Dion Lewis and again Jeremy Lankford,

527
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:42,920
Speaker 1: Kenneth Dixon, more sleepers that I'm kind of piling it

528
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:46,880
Speaker 1: on there. So I'm I'm looking for a roster that

529
00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:49,520
Speaker 1: has a lot of upside, and if it doesn't, I'm

530
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 1: gonna play that waiver wire. That's what's gonna happen. And

531
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,160
Speaker 1: for me, I really liked my draft too. There's don't

532
00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:57,920
Speaker 1: have been wrong. Look, there was a lot of confidence

533
00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:00,680
Speaker 1: coming out of this draft. Frank was Granson, Rankles Rand

534
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:04,560
Speaker 1: standing for hours. Harmon called his team the Goat franchise.

535
00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 1: Marcus loved his. I was okay with mine. I wasn't

536
00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 1: in love with it, but I I felt I think

537
00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:11,720
Speaker 1: I said, I drafted the Bengals like it's good enough

538
00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:13,280
Speaker 1: to get to the dance, but I'll probably get bounced

539
00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:15,160
Speaker 1: in the first round. I mean, if I was going

540
00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:18,439
Speaker 1: up against you, I would be intimidated by your running

541
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:20,720
Speaker 1: back and wide receivers. Yeah, it's not a bad step.

542
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,600
Speaker 1: But aside from our own our own drafts, let's all

543
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,200
Speaker 1: pick a favorite other draft and I'll get us started off.

544
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 1: I did like what Harmon did. Uh. He had a

545
00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:31,040
Speaker 1: couple of nice players fall to him. Uh. Particularly in

546
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:34,280
Speaker 1: round three, Dylan opted for Jarvis Landry over Alshon Jeffrey,

547
00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:37,080
Speaker 1: so that helped Harmon out. But his first, his first

548
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:40,840
Speaker 1: let's do first six picks here, he has Beckham, Jamal

549
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:45,440
Speaker 1: Charles Alston, Jeffrey loved Marius Thomas, Russell Wilson, Latavious Murray,

550
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:47,840
Speaker 1: so that could be his starting lineup right there. Puts

551
00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:50,080
Speaker 1: a wide receiver in the flex. That's that's nice. And

552
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:51,959
Speaker 1: then knowing him being the wide receiver guy, he got

553
00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:55,200
Speaker 1: his boy Tyler Lockett, who is his Allen Robinson for

554
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:57,160
Speaker 1: this year, the person he like believes in the most

555
00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,399
Speaker 1: to take the next step. And then picked up d

556
00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:01,920
Speaker 1: Jack's you know that high upside guy to play in

557
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:03,600
Speaker 1: the right spot. Yeah. I made a mistake there in

558
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:07,159
Speaker 1: round it. I took Ladarius Green for no reason. And

559
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:10,640
Speaker 1: then he's got He's got Gary Barnet, who's still gonna

560
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:12,680
Speaker 1: have a ton of volume in Cleveland. As we mentioned

561
00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:14,800
Speaker 1: with the Duke Johnson section, they're gonna be probably be

562
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:16,640
Speaker 1: behind a fair amount, and he's one of the most

563
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:19,440
Speaker 1: reliable targets in that offense. And then he's got some

564
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:21,480
Speaker 1: some good handcuffs where if somebody goes down, he's got

565
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:23,359
Speaker 1: a ton of value for a trade target or somebody

566
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,359
Speaker 1: to start in his lineup with Charles Sims, D'angela Williams,

567
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:28,560
Speaker 1: Jordan Howard, and DeAndre Washington, I feel like man Harmon

568
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 1: is doing too many mfls because this is a great

569
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:35,480
Speaker 1: this is that, this is this is a great best

570
00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:41,800
Speaker 1: ball at look at if de'angelo Williams. That's what I'm saying.

571
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. Uh. But the one problem that

572
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 1: I had with Matt Harmon's draft was that not a

573
00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:50,640
Speaker 1: whole heck of a lot of running back depth. And

574
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:54,760
Speaker 1: when Week two, Week three rolls around, um and he's

575
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 1: watching de'angelo Williams rack up zero point one points and

576
00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:00,920
Speaker 1: Jordan Howard racking up one point to how much are

577
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:02,600
Speaker 1: how long are those guys gonna be on his rock?

578
00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:05,560
Speaker 1: So that that is the one weakness. If you know,

579
00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 1: if if an injury goes right, then he's got great spots.

580
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:09,480
Speaker 1: Charles Sims is the one that would still provide in

581
00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:12,400
Speaker 1: weekly value. Maybe Washington too, but no, you're right, if

582
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:13,880
Speaker 1: there is a hang up on it, that's the spot.

583
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 1: But what about you guys, Marcus make another team here?

584
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:18,480
Speaker 1: I like, I like I like James's team really, I

585
00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:20,200
Speaker 1: mean I like the way. You know, obviously we talked

586
00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:22,240
Speaker 1: about me starting with the hop and he follows with

587
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:24,560
Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson. You know that's solid. I mean, I I

588
00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,920
Speaker 1: like the running back depth he has where he's got Peterson,

589
00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:30,880
Speaker 1: Carlos Hide, Dion Lewis, where you know, one of those

590
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:33,080
Speaker 1: guys could potentially be a flex. Then at the wide

591
00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:36,640
Speaker 1: receiver spot, Allen Robinson, Doug Baldwin, your starters, potentially Dante

592
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:39,880
Speaker 1: Moncreef works in as a flex there. I think Ladarius

593
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 1: Green could potentially have a really big year in that

594
00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,200
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh offense. I mean there there are targets to be

595
00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:47,920
Speaker 1: had with Marte Was Bryant and no Heath Miller, so

596
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 1: the targets to be had there, um and then the quarterbacks.

597
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 1: I mean, you know we mentioned Eli Manning getting drafted

598
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:56,160
Speaker 1: late there in the eleventh round, but then following that

599
00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 1: backup with Derek Carr. I mean I think that's a s.

600
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:02,520
Speaker 1: It's solid team. I'm doing that never draft. By the way,

601
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:05,480
Speaker 1: you're taking two qbs. I'm taking two qbs because I'm

602
00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 1: waiting super super late and I'm always going back to back. Um,

603
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 1: that's how late I'm waiting because I'm waiting till round

604
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:15,000
Speaker 1: eleven twelve or or twelve thirteen, and I'm always going

605
00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:18,240
Speaker 1: back to back. Because again, I mentioned five guys. I

606
00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:23,560
Speaker 1: really like Eli Manning, Derek Carr, Tyrod Taylor, Kirk Cousins

607
00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 1: Um and Carson Palmer. I love all five of those guys.

608
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:29,800
Speaker 1: I know they're gonna be there, and why not double

609
00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:32,000
Speaker 1: up because you've got to play the matchups at some point, right,

610
00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:34,240
Speaker 1: I Mean that's what we always talk about in fantasy

611
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 1: play the matchups. Uh So I'm doing that a lot

612
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 1: in my mom James, who's your team? Um? You know what?

613
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:43,440
Speaker 1: Can I talk about a team I hate? I hated

614
00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:45,880
Speaker 1: Michael fabianat Team. I don't think he was in love

615
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 1: with He wrote it in the lead for his analysis.

616
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:52,200
Speaker 1: When I look at the squad, right, and so he

617
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:55,840
Speaker 1: starts off with with Rob Gronkowski. I I'm just not

618
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:58,040
Speaker 1: in love with it because tight end position is so

619
00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,240
Speaker 1: deep I'm actually surprised you went there. But it's fine.

620
00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:03,000
Speaker 1: Uh he went Lamar Miller second round, Sammy Watkins. A

621
00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:06,760
Speaker 1: lot of injury concerns there, Matt fort Age concerns. Jonathan Stewart.

622
00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:12,120
Speaker 1: I I cannot disagree with that pick. I was just

623
00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:15,600
Speaker 1: writing this right now, earlier today. I am already prepared

624
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 1: to start defending Jonathan Stewart again. Just the knuckles that

625
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:27,440
Speaker 1: didn't can James? Is there a running back in the

626
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:32,600
Speaker 1: NFC South not big, you know, obviously? Let me take

627
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:36,200
Speaker 1: a late round him in mark Ingram No, Jonathan Stewart. No,

628
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:38,800
Speaker 1: I mean Doug Martin. Can he get some love? Yeah?

629
00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:41,120
Speaker 1: I like so I like the Doug or not? All right?

630
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:43,200
Speaker 1: So I think I think I'm kind of wi I

631
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 1: love I love his Lamar Miller pick, but there's a

632
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:47,920
Speaker 1: lot of guys on here that his other safe pick

633
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:50,120
Speaker 1: was Eric Decker. Just that one's fine. We know what

634
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:53,000
Speaker 1: he is. He took to Vante Parker in round seven.

635
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 1: I some people are high on him. I'm definitely not

636
00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:58,960
Speaker 1: hi at him in that place. But if he turns

637
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:01,479
Speaker 1: into too Marius Thomas, you point out and Gaze's offense

638
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:04,480
Speaker 1: in Miami, then fabs is in business. But you're right,

639
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:07,200
Speaker 1: his running backs have agor injury concerns. I mean, the

640
00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:09,760
Speaker 1: inconvenient truth Frank Gore in round eight. That's really not

641
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,200
Speaker 1: bad value. I will say this that I think I

642
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:15,080
Speaker 1: think what happened in this draft for draft for FABS

643
00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:19,000
Speaker 1: is it's sort of what happens when you kind of

644
00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:21,440
Speaker 1: get I won't say outside your comfort zone, but when

645
00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:24,200
Speaker 1: you do something early in the draft that maybe isn't

646
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 1: what you normally do. If FABS taking a tight end

647
00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,640
Speaker 1: in round one is definitely out of character, and so

648
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 1: I think what happened is after that he turned into

649
00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 1: that Mr. Crabs meme where everything is kind of blurry

650
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:37,440
Speaker 1: and stuff like. I kind of feel like that's how

651
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:39,200
Speaker 1: the I mean, that's how the rest of your draft goes.

652
00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:41,280
Speaker 1: And you did something in the first round, you're like, now,

653
00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:43,880
Speaker 1: how do I recover? And you never quite especially when

654
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:46,640
Speaker 1: you're picking at the turn, because he makes he makes

655
00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:48,600
Speaker 1: the Gronk Lamar Miller pick, and then he has to

656
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:51,960
Speaker 1: watch for eighteen more picks on that ground where he

657
00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:54,360
Speaker 1: goes again. I just don't think he took any um.

658
00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:56,760
Speaker 1: I don't think he took a lot of high upside guys.

659
00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:59,680
Speaker 1: I mean Eric Decker's a number two. DeVante Parker's a

660
00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:03,400
Speaker 1: number two. Um Quon Treadwell is I guess there's there's

661
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,640
Speaker 1: some one a red stone upside there, Tavon Austin, that's

662
00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:10,479
Speaker 1: a that's a really good I actually because I was, man,

663
00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:13,760
Speaker 1: I was, I had them all cued up for the

664
00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:17,520
Speaker 1: turn right, and it didn't. It didn't happen. So yeah,

665
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:19,479
Speaker 1: I know, I think I FABS didn't feel as comfortable

666
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 1: with this team, and you can you can see you

667
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:23,680
Speaker 1: can see why. But I I see the upside there too.

668
00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:26,000
Speaker 1: It's just there are there are some more probably question

669
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:28,160
Speaker 1: marks than most people, especially FABS, you want to feel

670
00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,240
Speaker 1: comfortable with. There you go, all right, should we do

671
00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:32,960
Speaker 1: mail bag? Let's get to some mail bag questions? Oh way,

672
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:35,520
Speaker 1: uh one more quick? On the draft. We got this,

673
00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:36,920
Speaker 1: we did in the first time. Everybody's gonna pick a

674
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:40,480
Speaker 1: steal of the draft. This is important stuff. It is

675
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:45,680
Speaker 1: important stuff. Wants to start. I'll start, um franchise, No, no, no,

676
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:47,520
Speaker 1: go ahead, go ahead, No, it's great because franchise is

677
00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:49,560
Speaker 1: just raising his hand. I was about to go all

678
00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:51,560
Speaker 1: start marks like I got it. Well, I hear, I mean,

679
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:54,000
Speaker 1: I'll start, But I'm gonna start by praising franchise because

680
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:55,440
Speaker 1: I think I think he had a couple of great

681
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 1: picks late. I think Marks Wheaton and Round It's fantastic,

682
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:02,680
Speaker 1: consider his his spot in that offense. And I think

683
00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:05,160
Speaker 1: really ste round ten was good too. I think that's good.

684
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:08,360
Speaker 1: I think Stefan Diggs digs in round thirteen, that was

685
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:12,319
Speaker 1: one that you know he got just before me. So yeah,

686
00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:14,839
Speaker 1: I was totally okay with that. Yeah, I snaked him

687
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:18,839
Speaker 1: from you. Yes, Before I get my Steel of the draft,

688
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,960
Speaker 1: my favorite draft was Ranks because he's got Nelson. Oh yeah, sorry,

689
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:24,919
Speaker 1: Julio Jones, Jordy Nelson, and Mike Evans one to three,

690
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:27,880
Speaker 1: and then j jis as his RB one. Love that.

691
00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:31,080
Speaker 1: And then two big PPR backs Geoe Bernard and Duke Johnson.

692
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:33,839
Speaker 1: This was not a PPR draft, but both still get paid, right.

693
00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:35,960
Speaker 1: I still, yeah, I still liked it. And then before

694
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:38,480
Speaker 1: I do my Steel of the draft. Okay, I didn't

695
00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:42,080
Speaker 1: note this when we recorded this earlier, but look at

696
00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:45,920
Speaker 1: all these rookie running backs that went one, two, three, four, six, seven.

697
00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:49,040
Speaker 1: Eight rookie running backs went and that's pretty nuts for

698
00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:53,440
Speaker 1: a ten team standard. I think we're this this group

699
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:56,520
Speaker 1: of drafters is pretty high on rookie running backs. So yeah,

700
00:34:57,040 --> 00:34:59,160
Speaker 1: and I don't think we'll see that, yuh, you know

701
00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:03,560
Speaker 1: in your Lehman's draft, But but you know, there there

702
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:05,480
Speaker 1: should be I started still when you get too close

703
00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:07,440
Speaker 1: to the game, you start loving these guys. Yeah, that's

704
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:09,959
Speaker 1: what it is. There. There's a phair amount of guys

705
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:12,600
Speaker 1: in positions where there's a tremendous amount of upside though,

706
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:14,799
Speaker 1: which is why I think, you know, when it comes

707
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:17,720
Speaker 1: to taking a rookie running back or taking an older handcuff,

708
00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:20,279
Speaker 1: even pretty casual drafters I think are going to side

709
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:22,480
Speaker 1: with taking the rookie running back because it's exciting, they're new,

710
00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:24,440
Speaker 1: like the team wants to get him in. And you know,

711
00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:28,080
Speaker 1: so many guys, whether it's uh Dixon obviously Elliott, but Dixon,

712
00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:32,480
Speaker 1: Henry Procise, Booker, those guys are and Jordan Howard in particular,

713
00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:35,200
Speaker 1: are all very close to a huge workload if somebody

714
00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:37,440
Speaker 1: goes down and ahead of them or they just outperformed them. Yeah,

715
00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:39,640
Speaker 1: I don't want to make a point to about draft

716
00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:41,839
Speaker 1: strategies a little bit because I think once you get

717
00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:44,040
Speaker 1: to round ten, I think you gotta throw the ranks

718
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:47,560
Speaker 1: right out, don't. I mean pretty much ignore the run.

719
00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:50,000
Speaker 1: Just get your guys. You reach for your guys. If

720
00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:52,440
Speaker 1: you want a guy, just get ADP is a guideline,

721
00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:54,759
Speaker 1: it's not. It's not the Bible. You don't have to know,

722
00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:56,719
Speaker 1: you don't have to swear by it, and and only

723
00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:59,080
Speaker 1: draft guys in that range of the ADP. Like, there

724
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:01,120
Speaker 1: were a number of cases in this draft. I'm sure

725
00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:02,759
Speaker 1: I'd have to look at it where we jumped guys

726
00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:05,400
Speaker 1: at their at their current ADP. Yeah, I mean Kenneth Dixon,

727
00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:09,360
Speaker 1: I don't see him going in most leagues. Uh that early.

728
00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:13,040
Speaker 1: I took him what I think, yeah, round ten in

729
00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 1: that turn, and quite frankly, I was really thinking about

730
00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:18,080
Speaker 1: taking him um in round nine or eight even, But

731
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:20,839
Speaker 1: you know again, just when you get to that point,

732
00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:25,680
Speaker 1: it doesn't really matter. Just take your guy, and uh, gall,

733
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:27,520
Speaker 1: I really like the fact that you took a guy

734
00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:30,720
Speaker 1: like Derrick Henry in round ten. I saw DeVante Booker

735
00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:33,279
Speaker 1: go in round ten to to Matt money Smith because

736
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:35,560
Speaker 1: I think he's seen him play and I think he

737
00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:38,359
Speaker 1: really believes in the talent level. So you know, why

738
00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:43,279
Speaker 1: not Devontae Bookers going undrafted in most leagues. That'll change

739
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:46,799
Speaker 1: once we get the training camp. That's how he looks

740
00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:48,520
Speaker 1: because he's still coming off that knee injury and there

741
00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:50,440
Speaker 1: are currently two backs ahead of him. But so, Marcus,

742
00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:52,560
Speaker 1: you hit a steel Franchises, you slip your steel. My

743
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:56,279
Speaker 1: steel was Marcus getting Carson Palmer at round one? All that, right,

744
00:36:56,400 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 1: you guys, just Patty, we've got his We've got an

745
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:06,960
Speaker 1: arrangement here. Okay, that is insane. Nice pick, Marcus. I

746
00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:09,719
Speaker 1: did like Adam Rank taking Zach Miller in round there.

747
00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:13,520
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I love Zach Miller like beast. That's pretty crazy.

748
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:15,399
Speaker 1: He took Jimmy Graham and Zach Miller back to back,

749
00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:17,239
Speaker 1: and I can't hate him for that. That's pretty good.

750
00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:19,799
Speaker 1: You kind of have to if you're taking Jimmy Graham. Yeah,

751
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:21,600
Speaker 1: you've got him back. Until we have any kind of

752
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:25,040
Speaker 1: certainty about his his future, you gotta go with somebody

753
00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:27,759
Speaker 1: else right after that. Yeah, like a couple of the ones.

754
00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:30,120
Speaker 1: I really liked James. We talked about it briefly, but

755
00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:32,439
Speaker 1: Marvin Jones. Right now, they've come out and even said

756
00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:34,880
Speaker 1: that Tate and Jones are one A and one B.

757
00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:37,400
Speaker 1: We don't we don't even know who the one A is.

758
00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:39,920
Speaker 1: It could very well be Jones and he'll push the

759
00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:41,359
Speaker 1: ball down. He'll be the one pushing the ball down

760
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:44,839
Speaker 1: the field body, So that's a good pick. Uh. How

761
00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:47,279
Speaker 1: did we not acknowledge the first time that Wilke got

762
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:49,160
Speaker 1: whoever who is going to be the highest scoring wide

763
00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:51,360
Speaker 1: receiver in the league in round fifteen? And Jeff Janice

764
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:57,800
Speaker 1: all joking aside he did Will did draft his starting

765
00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:00,680
Speaker 1: quarterback as his QB two in round thirteen, in Tyrod

766
00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:03,920
Speaker 1: Taylor over over Blake Brotles as what we're calling him

767
00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:06,800
Speaker 1: these days. And Uh, I just want to give a

768
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:10,000
Speaker 1: a little shout out to never mind. I lost where

769
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:13,239
Speaker 1: I was gonna go, so forget it. Okay, alright, A

770
00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:15,920
Speaker 1: queue up those mailback sounders, buddy, because we're about to

771
00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:19,680
Speaker 1: hit the mail bag right about all right. The first

772
00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:24,160
Speaker 1: one comes from at SPO Johns Shot. Uh keep her

773
00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:27,280
Speaker 1: question if you don't mind. Two from this list hide

774
00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:30,439
Speaker 1: in the fourth, Brandon Marshall in the fifth, Latavius Murray

775
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:34,359
Speaker 1: in the five standard scoring So hide four Brandon Marshall five,

776
00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:38,480
Speaker 1: Latin Murray five. I'm gonna go hide in Murray. I

777
00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:41,239
Speaker 1: like it, Um, I don't know Bay Area running bags?

778
00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:45,239
Speaker 1: Am I right? Am? I right? It's it's Marshall and

779
00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:47,239
Speaker 1: Murray for me, and it's it's not close in this one.

780
00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:49,759
Speaker 1: I feel like Hide's got too many question marks on

781
00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:52,520
Speaker 1: the bad offense. Murray, thanks for projecting, okay for him.

782
00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:54,640
Speaker 1: Marshall's a wide receiver, one that you're getting in the

783
00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:56,839
Speaker 1: fifth round. Toss Hide back and keep the other two.

784
00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:02,000
Speaker 1: I am a not so dismissed. I am not a

785
00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:05,400
Speaker 1: Latavious Murray believer, so I'm going Hide and Brandon Marshall

786
00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:08,400
Speaker 1: help this guy. We have. We haven't helped you at all,

787
00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:11,239
Speaker 1: So why not a Latavious Murray. I don't know. I

788
00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:14,080
Speaker 1: just I don't know. He's a big, strong, physical kid,

789
00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:16,120
Speaker 1: plays in a great offense. I think he'll be better.

790
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:20,640
Speaker 1: Didn't he didn't Wow last sear he didn't. He didn't.

791
00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:22,839
Speaker 1: And at least Carlos Hide had that one game where

792
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:26,040
Speaker 1: everyone in Week one where everyone was like, whoa this guy? Oh, hey, Litten,

793
00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:27,800
Speaker 1: you don't need to sell me on Carlos Hide. I

794
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,120
Speaker 1: don't know. Yeah, I love me some Carlo. Everyone's down

795
00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:32,960
Speaker 1: on Hide, and you know, I get it. San Francisco

796
00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:35,480
Speaker 1: is not the greatest offense in the league. But uh,

797
00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:42,720
Speaker 1: the next mail back question please at you saying Boris,

798
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:46,920
Speaker 1: I like it. At you saying Boris, ask how many

799
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 1: players do you think it's okay to have on your

800
00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:52,520
Speaker 1: bench which are simply long term, high upside flyers. So

801
00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:54,680
Speaker 1: how many of your bench spots should you dedicate to

802
00:39:54,920 --> 00:40:00,640
Speaker 1: to basically sleeper picks. I would say at the most,

803
00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:03,120
Speaker 1: you're looking at half your bench. Like if you have

804
00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:06,000
Speaker 1: a you know, six players on your bench, I'd say three. Um,

805
00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:08,560
Speaker 1: and that's at most. That's a most because otherwise when

806
00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:10,359
Speaker 1: you get that by weeks, you get the bye weeks,

807
00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:12,680
Speaker 1: you get two injuries. I just want to have a

808
00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:15,120
Speaker 1: few guys there that I feel confident that can plug

809
00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:17,600
Speaker 1: in when I have an open slot in my starting life.

810
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:19,440
Speaker 1: I mean, here's saying it's cute to think that all

811
00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:22,279
Speaker 1: the starters you draft are gonna be good. That's cute.

812
00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:27,400
Speaker 1: It's not gonna happen. It's not gonna happen. There's ineffectiveness.

813
00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:32,040
Speaker 1: Uh on this league as well, not team. You've never

814
00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:35,400
Speaker 1: drafted a bust ever in your life? Uh? Yeah, No,

815
00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:37,480
Speaker 1: I mean that's the thing, and that's where the bench

816
00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:41,040
Speaker 1: comes into play. When you have a deeper bench. You're

817
00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:44,799
Speaker 1: kind of ensuring yourself against busts. Um. I mean again,

818
00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:47,080
Speaker 1: if you have a first round bust, yeah, okay, that

819
00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:50,080
Speaker 1: that that makes it pretty hard. But but a lot

820
00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:51,799
Speaker 1: of these other guys, your wide receiver two of your

821
00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:55,759
Speaker 1: r B two's your flex positions. You know, you're playing matchups,

822
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:58,960
Speaker 1: You're you're hoping that injuries don't don't happen. But all

823
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,480
Speaker 1: these different things happening where you gotta play the matchups.

824
00:41:01,520 --> 00:41:03,520
Speaker 1: You gotta play the talent level you gotta play. Uh,

825
00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:08,279
Speaker 1: the injuries by weeks are a killer. So again, I

826
00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:12,160
Speaker 1: don't know three out of six that's at most. I

827
00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 1: mean maybe I spent two picks on um deep sleepers

828
00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:17,919
Speaker 1: that I think could pant that I've got to wait,

829
00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:20,520
Speaker 1: you know, three or four weeks. But if you're waiting

830
00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:23,960
Speaker 1: eight weeks, I would probably say no. I probably say no,

831
00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:30,399
Speaker 1: I probably pass on those alright, next one, please, hey,

832
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:37,600
Speaker 1: Tom Striking, these names are tough at at t striking. Edit,

833
00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:41,200
Speaker 1: this is tough. These are tough. I can keep two off.

834
00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:43,760
Speaker 1: Are you ready? A J? Green and the third Edelman

835
00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:48,680
Speaker 1: six deck or fourteen mon Creef standard twelve team league.

836
00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:52,160
Speaker 1: You keep two A J. Green, Edelman, Decker mon Creef.

837
00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:55,520
Speaker 1: Let's just go ahead and throw at Edelman. Uh, it's

838
00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:58,080
Speaker 1: a Green, Green and mon Creef for me, Garbo, so

839
00:41:58,239 --> 00:42:02,360
Speaker 1: let's just throw him out. Wow, that's right right, alman

840
00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:05,279
Speaker 1: as a fantastic and I'm going I'm going Green and

841
00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:08,960
Speaker 1: Decker myself, Green and Decker. I'm gonna go Green and

842
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:13,480
Speaker 1: Decker too. Why not Decker and moncre Green in the

843
00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:17,120
Speaker 1: third round? Green could push for like a hundred eighty

844
00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:19,480
Speaker 1: targets this year. Western now and Jones out of the way,

845
00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:22,560
Speaker 1: especially with Eifford injured early. He's an elite talent third

846
00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:26,120
Speaker 1: round book it alright, fine, a J. Green moncree for me. Uh,

847
00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:28,759
Speaker 1: next question, please get that sign wits out of your

848
00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:32,280
Speaker 1: pie hole and listen up, maggot. It's time for miracle,

849
00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:35,600
Speaker 1: all right. At Johnny Waltz six, he asked in this

850
00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:39,279
Speaker 1: question here last year, I don't know why I said that. Yeah,

851
00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:41,319
Speaker 1: that was weird. That was really weird. I was trying

852
00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:42,879
Speaker 1: to figure out. Okay, never but I don't worry about

853
00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:47,359
Speaker 1: last year. Allen Robinson was a mid round darlink. Who

854
00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:52,320
Speaker 1: is this year's mid round stud? I like DeVante Parker

855
00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:54,359
Speaker 1: says Johnny w there go. Yeah, that was not James

856
00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:57,960
Speaker 1: saying that. Well, if we uh, Alan, you know, as

857
00:42:57,960 --> 00:43:00,720
Speaker 1: you mentioned earlier, Tyler Lockett is Matt Harmon's Allen Robinson

858
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:03,080
Speaker 1: this year. So if you want to follow him and

859
00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:06,520
Speaker 1: his reception perception work, Tyler Lockett's that got to take

860
00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:09,600
Speaker 1: in the middle rounds. Personally, for me, I am all

861
00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:12,799
Speaker 1: about the young Arizona wide receivers Michael Floyd and John Brown.

862
00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:15,600
Speaker 1: I'm trying to draft them in as many leagues as

863
00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:19,359
Speaker 1: possible this year. Michael Floyd is going to happen this year. Yeah,

864
00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:26,080
Speaker 1: I'm on board with that. I totally believe that for reals,

865
00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:30,600
Speaker 1: for he had games in his final seven that he played.

866
00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:32,880
Speaker 1: He's got all the tools and the size of a

867
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:36,319
Speaker 1: number one receiver. Lara Fitzgerald's basically permanently moved into the slot.

868
00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:38,560
Speaker 1: He's still gonna get his work there. John Brown's the

869
00:43:38,680 --> 00:43:40,759
Speaker 1: probably the higher upside, maybe the higher upside guy with

870
00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:43,400
Speaker 1: his with his speed and everything. But I think I

871
00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:46,080
Speaker 1: love Floyd. So, by the way, how are we to

872
00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:48,640
Speaker 1: finding mid round? What does that mean? Like? Probably like

873
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:52,080
Speaker 1: five to nine, five to nine that sounds about right.

874
00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:54,880
Speaker 1: That sounds about right. I'll say Marvin Jones on the

875
00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:56,480
Speaker 1: back end of that, it's a beautiful choice. I think

876
00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:58,960
Speaker 1: in round nine, if you're getting Marvin Jones, I think

877
00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:01,879
Speaker 1: you're getting pretty good Vale you. Um. I think he's

878
00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:05,239
Speaker 1: got a super safe floor and the upside I love

879
00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:08,000
Speaker 1: And like I said, I'm all in man, Marvin Jones,

880
00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:11,200
Speaker 1: Marshall leven hundred buckets. My guy is Jeremy Macklin, who

881
00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:13,240
Speaker 1: I don't think that's a lot of love in fantasy

882
00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:17,759
Speaker 1: circles targets last because because the Chief's offense doesn't do

883
00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:20,000
Speaker 1: anything to excite anybody, and it is not because Maclin

884
00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:22,640
Speaker 1: is not a good player. He's bad for Jeremy Maclin.

885
00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:25,640
Speaker 1: Yeah me too, Yeah, because he plays in the oatmeal

886
00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:29,200
Speaker 1: of NFL offense and that fine and like I had

887
00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:31,440
Speaker 1: oatmeal for breakfast. It was and it's not like but

888
00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:34,200
Speaker 1: it's not like going to get a breakfast burrito was

889
00:44:34,239 --> 00:44:37,800
Speaker 1: not the same. He's like the best part of that

890
00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:42,120
Speaker 1: that oatmeal though, I mean the blueberries, and I mean

891
00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:45,640
Speaker 1: Jamal Charles is probably like the cinnamon, and James Macklin

892
00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:48,600
Speaker 1: is the book berries. Wow, this is getting off the

893
00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:57,200
Speaker 1: rail midground stud moving on yes, Maclin's a great choice franchise. Wow, alright, Marcus,

894
00:44:57,320 --> 00:45:00,160
Speaker 1: who mine's actual gonna be Sterling Shepard. Um, you know

895
00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:03,080
Speaker 1: you were talking upside guys, talking young guys, obviously the

896
00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:05,480
Speaker 1: rookie coming in here, and you know, we we've all

897
00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:09,000
Speaker 1: talked about how we are big on Eli Manning this year.

898
00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:12,839
Speaker 1: Obviously Odell Beckham is still there, but like a big

899
00:45:13,200 --> 00:45:15,719
Speaker 1: caveat for you though, right, Well, the big caveat is

900
00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:18,960
Speaker 1: what happens with Victor Cruz. And you know, I wish

901
00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:21,440
Speaker 1: him certainly all the best and trying to recover and

902
00:45:21,560 --> 00:45:24,000
Speaker 1: come back, but it doesn't sound like the Giants are

903
00:45:24,040 --> 00:45:26,040
Speaker 1: completely sold that he's going to be ready early in

904
00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:29,200
Speaker 1: the season. Um. And skill wise, I mean, I think

905
00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:32,120
Speaker 1: Shepherd is a great compliment to what Beckham does. So

906
00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:35,000
Speaker 1: if huge, if there's no Victor Cruz there, I think

907
00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:37,000
Speaker 1: I think Sterling Shepherd really takes off. And that's a

908
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:38,880
Speaker 1: guy that I'm I really am targeting him in a

909
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:41,399
Speaker 1: lot of drafts. Quick off the line, a little smallish due,

910
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:44,359
Speaker 1: but that's okay. He's got great hands, great quickness. Um

911
00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:46,640
Speaker 1: And as you mentioned, you know, if they're gonna be

912
00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:50,000
Speaker 1: using that West Coast style, offense, short passing sterling. Shepherd's

913
00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:52,960
Speaker 1: gonna see work and and he's gonna get open um.

914
00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:55,520
Speaker 1: Considering that Odell Beckham Jr. Is gonna be taking so

915
00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:58,200
Speaker 1: much attention off the top. I agree with you. Um

916
00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:03,200
Speaker 1: if he is named, you know, um, a starter opposite

917
00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:06,799
Speaker 1: Odell Sky's the limit. But but if Victor, if they're

918
00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:09,480
Speaker 1: gonna try to work in Victor Cruz and they kind

919
00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:12,840
Speaker 1: of give him that uh starter position at least for

920
00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:17,160
Speaker 1: the first like let's say, like four weeks, it's it's

921
00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:20,360
Speaker 1: hard for me to invest in. Certainly, shephard that early. No,

922
00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:22,840
Speaker 1: I I gotta wait that long because he doesn't have

923
00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:27,120
Speaker 1: He doesn't have that Odell Beckham Junr. Upside does he No, No, no, none,

924
00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:29,800
Speaker 1: not quite that that upside. But he's he's very talented

925
00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:32,120
Speaker 1: and we like it a lot. But alright, moving on,

926
00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:38,720
Speaker 1: moving on, you get a baby at it's a tumor

927
00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:42,520
Speaker 1: David scot that's pretty good. That's good. That's good handled.

928
00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:47,640
Speaker 1: Uh ten team PPR, great handle, by the way, ten

929
00:46:47,719 --> 00:46:52,840
Speaker 1: team PPR. We're keeping two Rawls read or Kelvin Benjamin

930
00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:58,200
Speaker 1: Rawls read or Kelvin Benjamin Reading Benjamin No brainer rawls.

931
00:46:58,360 --> 00:47:01,239
Speaker 1: Some fewer passing targets for Aim then Marshawn Lynch did

932
00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:04,400
Speaker 1: in that offense, and they drafted uh franchises and Harmon's

933
00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:07,560
Speaker 1: boy C J. Prosis, who's converted wide receiver, probably gonna

934
00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:10,000
Speaker 1: get mixed in a lot. Rawls has very little PPR upside,

935
00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:11,080
Speaker 1: So you gotta go with the guys that are gonna

936
00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:15,560
Speaker 1: catch the passes. Not really thrilled with those choices, but yeah,

937
00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:17,960
Speaker 1: it's not. It's not great keeper options. Reed's got good

938
00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:20,719
Speaker 1: upside um. Really, I think Red's got great upside. But

939
00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:24,120
Speaker 1: I gotta say he's being overdrafted though. Yes in standard

940
00:47:24,200 --> 00:47:30,799
Speaker 1: leagues he's being whale over under on twelve games, over

941
00:47:31,040 --> 00:47:33,879
Speaker 1: come on bro over come on over pay fourteen last

942
00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:39,080
Speaker 1: year again, that's last year over He's he's how many

943
00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:43,080
Speaker 1: games have you played the year before? Someone looked great

944
00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:45,960
Speaker 1: while while they're looking at that relevant statistic. He is

945
00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:48,680
Speaker 1: such a matchup nightmare. He's Kirk cousins favorite target. He

946
00:47:48,760 --> 00:47:52,719
Speaker 1: dominated red Own offense. There, boy, they are boys, and

947
00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:56,439
Speaker 1: for good reason, because he makes Kirk cousins job extremely easy.

948
00:47:56,520 --> 00:47:59,160
Speaker 1: When he just goes, where's Jordan ringing on the fields?

949
00:47:59,280 --> 00:48:02,360
Speaker 1: It at him. Uh, It's true I do like the combination.

950
00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:05,320
Speaker 1: I just think for where he were, what his value is,

951
00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:09,040
Speaker 1: especially in relation to Greg Olsen. We're watching Greg Olson

952
00:48:09,120 --> 00:48:12,879
Speaker 1: go like two rounds later, uh than than Jordan read

953
00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:16,560
Speaker 1: right now, And I understand the upside, but I just

954
00:48:17,320 --> 00:48:19,759
Speaker 1: I just can't buy into the to the injury risk.

955
00:48:19,960 --> 00:48:22,200
Speaker 1: So by the way, year before he played eleven games.

956
00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:25,040
Speaker 1: Year before that he played So if we're sticking with

957
00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:28,719
Speaker 1: these food comps here for offenses, Jordan Reid is like

958
00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:30,520
Speaker 1: a fresh slice of pizza right out of the oven.

959
00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:32,279
Speaker 1: It could be the most delicious thing you've ever taken.

960
00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:36,360
Speaker 1: It could burn the top of your mouth. Meanwhile, Greg

961
00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:39,239
Speaker 1: Olson's like the garlic not there. It's good, you know

962
00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:40,920
Speaker 1: what you're always gonna get with the garlic knots, but

963
00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:42,319
Speaker 1: it's not going to change your life like the piece

964
00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:46,840
Speaker 1: of pizza could though. The standard garlic sorr though, because

965
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:49,080
Speaker 1: you know when the piece of pizza burns your mouth

966
00:48:49,120 --> 00:48:50,919
Speaker 1: and doesn't turn to be that good, those garlic knots

967
00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:53,279
Speaker 1: will fill you up. And I love garlic knots. I

968
00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:55,040
Speaker 1: don't don't take that as a slight Greig Olson, if

969
00:48:55,040 --> 00:48:58,160
Speaker 1: you listen to are we going? I don't know if

970

988
00:49:49,400 --> 00:49:54,080
Speaker 1: consensus franchise over there. I'm writing their initials down the

989
00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:56,480
Speaker 1: order of the rank completely on board, all right, let's

990
00:49:56,520 --> 00:50:02,640
Speaker 1: get motivated for these last couple. Uh Dean screen, let's go.

991
00:50:02,800 --> 00:50:07,359
Speaker 1: I like it at Tyler Strong. When will Charlie get

992
00:50:07,440 --> 00:50:09,839
Speaker 1: on the pod? Matt Harmon's dog? Listen, I I talked

993
00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:12,560
Speaker 1: to Charlie's people. He's demanding too much money. He wants

994
00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:15,799
Speaker 1: it to be Charlie Harmon joined you know he wants

995
00:50:15,960 --> 00:50:18,400
Speaker 1: top billing. This is Charlie. This is Matt Harmon's dog.

996
00:50:19,320 --> 00:50:21,280
Speaker 1: So he's not gonna get on the pod people. Sorry, okay,

997
00:50:22,320 --> 00:50:24,480
Speaker 1: let's stop. But the question he's on Twitter. Though I

998
00:50:24,560 --> 00:50:26,480
Speaker 1: know he's on Twitter, it's a fake handle. Harmon does

999
00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:28,720
Speaker 1: not run it. It's real Dean Louis or Duke Johnson.

1000
00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:31,480
Speaker 1: I don't buy that it's not him. I think Matt

1001
00:50:31,480 --> 00:50:34,120
Speaker 1: harm him. I think he goes to the bathroom and

1002
00:50:34,160 --> 00:50:37,840
Speaker 1: I think he runs it and he's like who he

1003
00:50:37,960 --> 00:50:40,440
Speaker 1: is creating this Charlie accoun Now he has taken a

1004
00:50:40,520 --> 00:50:42,800
Speaker 1: screen grab of on Twitter where it shows your active

1005
00:50:42,800 --> 00:50:44,520
Speaker 1: accounts on the phone, and that is not one of

1006
00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:50,560
Speaker 1: them anyways, Dean Lewis or Duke Johnson. Dean Lewis or

1007
00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:53,640
Speaker 1: Duke Johnson. I don't even think it's close. Of course

1008
00:50:53,680 --> 00:50:57,200
Speaker 1: it is Dean Louis, Duke, what you get out of here?

1009
00:50:57,239 --> 00:50:59,080
Speaker 1: I gotta be that guy? All right? Moving on, why

1010
00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:01,120
Speaker 1: don't you take to Johns d That makes no sense?

1011
00:51:01,280 --> 00:51:03,080
Speaker 1: Dion Luis is coming off an A C L tear.

1012
00:51:03,160 --> 00:51:05,520
Speaker 1: Duke Johnson is healthy and he is the ultimate weapon,

1013
00:51:05,600 --> 00:51:10,399
Speaker 1: as we discussed earlier. All right, here we go. Last one.

1014
00:51:12,520 --> 00:51:18,399
Speaker 1: We mentioned four years Kevin Johnson at the code jail.

1015
00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:22,680
Speaker 1: Who's got the fastest forty time of everyone at NFL

1016
00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:25,520
Speaker 1: fans hashtag the real questions? He tagged the four of

1017
00:51:25,600 --> 00:51:28,400
Speaker 1: us and Matt Harmon's questions. I know what the right

1018
00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:31,160
Speaker 1: answer is. And again, I am gonna base this off

1019
00:51:31,239 --> 00:51:35,560
Speaker 1: of absolutely nothing because we have done zero athletic activities together. Folks.

1020
00:51:36,120 --> 00:51:37,400
Speaker 1: I know you guys think we hang out. We do

1021
00:51:37,480 --> 00:51:40,719
Speaker 1: not well, not in like, we don't hang out and

1022
00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:43,719
Speaker 1: go play sports. We hang out and drink. That's actually yeah.

1023
00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:46,320
Speaker 1: I could tell you who could drink the most that

1024
00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:50,560
Speaker 1: I could answer question for hilarity. Uh forty times. I'm

1025
00:51:50,600 --> 00:51:54,480
Speaker 1: basing this off of nothing other than just straight gut feeling.

1026
00:51:54,920 --> 00:51:56,480
Speaker 1: And you know what I mean? I like forty times, Yes,

00:53:45,160 --> 00:53:46,440
Speaker 1: the king of forty times. I think those are the

1059
00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:48,400
Speaker 1: definitive ranks. I think that's about right. Question. I do

1060
00:53:48,520 --> 00:53:52,400
Speaker 1: think that's about not right. No, I do think whatever, franchise,

1061
00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:54,360
Speaker 1: you listen to way too much music? What does that

1062
00:53:54,480 --> 00:53:57,640
Speaker 1: have to do with running forty Yeah, it's just not conducive,

1063
00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:01,160
Speaker 1: it's really not. All right, let's dap and get out

1064
00:54:01,160 --> 00:54:11,440
Speaker 1: of here. Alright, cool, desinite, because I'll be depths depths

1065
00:54:13,400 --> 00:54:15,359
Speaker 1: daily DAPs of these headphones was the first time I've

1066
00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:18,040
Speaker 1: used them. These are great different scot now I'm gonna

1067
00:54:18,080 --> 00:54:20,200
Speaker 1: sit in a different spot. Okay, daily DAP time. We're

1068
00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:24,040
Speaker 1: gonna start with you, Matt Franciscovic, the franchise. I am

1069
00:54:24,200 --> 00:54:29,520
Speaker 1: anti dapping, don't do it. The Pokemon Go game app

1070
00:54:31,400 --> 00:54:35,279
Speaker 1: a waste of time. Everyone loves it. It's bogus. We're

1071
00:54:35,280 --> 00:54:37,200
Speaker 1: all grown men here. What do we What are we

1072
00:54:37,360 --> 00:54:40,560
Speaker 1: chasing fake cartoons around in the street for? We write

1073
00:54:40,560 --> 00:54:48,880
Speaker 1: about fake football fake cartoons on the street. That actually

1074
00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:50,719
Speaker 1: is that makes sense when you put it like that

1075
00:54:50,840 --> 00:54:53,000
Speaker 1: right now. It's the last time you saw fake cartoon

1076
00:54:53,080 --> 00:54:57,239
Speaker 1: on the street. It's when I played a game boy

1077
00:54:57,400 --> 00:54:59,720
Speaker 1: when I was in middle school. That's pretty accurate. Actually,

1078
00:55:00,239 --> 00:55:03,000
Speaker 1: I may have to reconsider my thoughts on Pokemon Go.

1079
00:55:03,480 --> 00:55:07,239
Speaker 1: Uh No, but Pokemon Go. I'm gonna daily dap Pokemon Go. Yeah,

1080
00:55:08,080 --> 00:55:11,400
Speaker 1: because the tweets on Pokemon Go on Twitter right now

1081
00:55:14,360 --> 00:55:16,839
Speaker 1: having a blast. It's great. I love it. I absolutely

1082
00:55:16,920 --> 00:55:19,800
Speaker 1: love it. Uh m M, what's up? I'm actually on

1083
00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:23,080
Speaker 1: a daily DAP. The sport of hurling. Um. You know,

1084
00:55:23,160 --> 00:55:27,120
Speaker 1: I was on vacation in Europe last week. Um and

1085
00:55:28,040 --> 00:55:30,279
Speaker 1: while I was in Dublin went to a hurling match.

1086
00:55:30,280 --> 00:55:31,880
Speaker 1: I've never heard of the sport before. It is this

1087
00:55:32,200 --> 00:55:38,080
Speaker 1: insane ridiculous combination of like lacrosse, field, hockey, baseball, soccer,

1088
00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:42,719
Speaker 1: American football. It's it's it's bonkers. Um, just go on

1089
00:55:42,840 --> 00:55:46,879
Speaker 1: YouTube look up hurling. This thing is wild. These guys

1090
00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:49,640
Speaker 1: have sticks and paddles and they bat a little ball

1091
00:55:49,680 --> 00:55:51,200
Speaker 1: back and forth, and every now and then the dude

1092
00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:54,040
Speaker 1: gets whacked in the face. Um, And they can bare

1093
00:55:54,080 --> 00:55:55,920
Speaker 1: hand the ball, catch it with your bare hand if

1094
00:55:57,680 --> 00:55:59,880
Speaker 1: the other there are rules I fixed, so I figured,

1095
00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:01,279
Speaker 1: you know, why do they have a stick if you

1096
00:56:01,320 --> 00:56:03,719
Speaker 1: could use your hand, Well, because you can't if you

1097
00:56:03,800 --> 00:56:06,680
Speaker 1: are running to advance the ball down the field, if

1098
00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:08,120
Speaker 1: you have the ball in your hand, you can only

1099
00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:10,960
Speaker 1: take four steps. But if you can you know, kind

1100
00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:13,440
Speaker 1: of balance it on your paddle, you can run as

1101
00:56:13,560 --> 00:56:16,400
Speaker 1: long as you want. Or you can use the paddle

1102
00:56:16,480 --> 00:56:18,320
Speaker 1: to kind of toss it up to yourself. You know,

1103
00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:20,240
Speaker 1: you pitch a baseball at yourself, toss up to yourself

1104
00:56:20,560 --> 00:56:24,359
Speaker 1: you can use to then smash another man in the face. Well,

1105
00:56:24,560 --> 00:56:26,800
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know if that's part of Like

1106
00:56:26,800 --> 00:56:29,279
Speaker 1: I couldn't figure out what a foul or a penalty was.

1107
00:56:29,360 --> 00:56:31,600
Speaker 1: I watched the whole match I didn't like. Sometimes the

1108
00:56:31,640 --> 00:56:34,480
Speaker 1: guy would get you know, destroyed, and they blow the whistle.

1109
00:56:34,760 --> 00:56:37,239
Speaker 1: Other times I gotta get destroyed and they may. The

1110
00:56:37,280 --> 00:56:39,600
Speaker 1: real question though, is did they have a clear catch rule?

1111
00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:48,440
Speaker 1: Because they did have so. Um but yeah, Hurling is

1112
00:56:48,560 --> 00:56:51,200
Speaker 1: absolutely bonkers. I am thrilled that I have now seen

1113
00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:54,640
Speaker 1: it in person. Um. Yeah, check it out. Go ahead,

1114
00:56:54,640 --> 00:56:58,760
Speaker 1: go on YouTube, look up Hurling. It's it's amazing. Alex Wisconsin.

1115
00:56:58,760 --> 00:57:03,160
Speaker 1: In addition to Pokemon, Go want Quick Daptuh Swiss Army Man.

1116
00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:05,360
Speaker 1: It's an indie movie that I saw a week or

1117
00:57:05,360 --> 00:57:09,000
Speaker 1: two ago with Daniel Radcliff in it and Paul Danio.

1118
00:57:09,080 --> 00:57:12,360
Speaker 1: Daniel Radcliff plays a not so dead body with magical powers,

1119
00:57:12,400 --> 00:57:14,759
Speaker 1: one of them being his flatulence that helps Paul Dano

1120
00:57:14,840 --> 00:57:18,080
Speaker 1: survive because he's stranded on an island. It's very weird,

1121
00:57:18,200 --> 00:57:20,040
Speaker 1: it's very whimsical, but if you go into it with

1122
00:57:20,080 --> 00:57:21,800
Speaker 1: the right mindset, it's something you haven't seen before in

1123
00:57:21,840 --> 00:57:23,680
Speaker 1: the theater. So that's cool. I want to convince somebody

1124
00:57:23,720 --> 00:57:26,400
Speaker 1: that my farting powers will help them survive. I wouldn't

1125
00:57:26,400 --> 00:57:34,720
Speaker 1: try that farting dead Harry Potter movie, Yes he sounds

1126
00:57:34,880 --> 00:57:37,440
Speaker 1: is he a zombie or a ghost. No, he's like

1127
00:57:38,520 --> 00:57:41,560
Speaker 1: not a zombie. He's just like reanimated. I don't know.

1128
00:57:41,640 --> 00:57:45,440
Speaker 1: We can't re animated. That's a zombie. It's like, you know,

1129
00:57:45,520 --> 00:57:48,760
Speaker 1: Harry Potter and the Curse of Beans and Broccoli, all

1130
00:57:48,840 --> 00:57:53,560
Speaker 1: right and the last all right, it's too late in

1131
00:57:53,560 --> 00:57:55,320
Speaker 1: the day. We've been working too long now to get

1132
00:57:55,400 --> 00:57:58,400
Speaker 1: stuck on bad fart jokes. So uh, Scott Fish is

1133
00:57:58,440 --> 00:58:00,360
Speaker 1: my other daily dabt is he put together there the

1134
00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:03,280
Speaker 1: Scott Fish Bowl four eighty this year. It's a huge

1135
00:58:03,360 --> 00:58:05,720
Speaker 1: pro am fantasy tournament that we're all getting in for

1136
00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:08,240
Speaker 1: the first time. Harmon played it last year. We'll get

1137
00:58:08,280 --> 00:58:10,200
Speaker 1: you in next year, James. It's been so much fun

1138
00:58:10,400 --> 00:58:12,600
Speaker 1: so far. The draft started on Monday. So how it works.

1139
00:58:12,640 --> 00:58:16,960
Speaker 1: There's four teams broken up into I think sixteen or

1140
00:58:17,160 --> 00:58:19,040
Speaker 1: I don't remember. There's the four native teams broken up

1141
00:58:19,040 --> 00:58:25,520
Speaker 1: into twelve team forty twelve team divisions, and out of

1142
00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:28,440
Speaker 1: all people, he will crown. There will be one winner

1143
00:58:28,480 --> 00:58:31,360
Speaker 1: crown at the end. But it's a to rule them all,

1144
00:58:31,440 --> 00:58:33,240
Speaker 1: one team to rule them all. So it's a point

1145
00:58:33,320 --> 00:58:37,320
Speaker 1: to five point per carry point five PPR full point

1146
00:58:37,400 --> 00:58:40,640
Speaker 1: PPR for tight ends super flex leagues. You can start

1147
00:58:40,680 --> 00:58:43,280
Speaker 1: two quarterbacks and I think there are four flex positions

1148
00:58:43,320 --> 00:58:45,800
Speaker 1: in total. Right, There's some other crazy rules, but it's

1149
00:58:45,800 --> 00:58:48,720
Speaker 1: super fun because it's throw out your normal draft strategy

1150
00:58:49,040 --> 00:58:51,680
Speaker 1: and you know, nobody really knows exactly what they're doing.

1151
00:58:51,720 --> 00:58:54,080
Speaker 1: Everybody's trying out different bowl strategies and it's just been

1152
00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:56,480
Speaker 1: an absolute blast. So thank you to Scott Fish for
