Speaker 1: We've done the seventeen mile drive and you go through

45
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 1: a lot of that stuff. Yeah, the seventeen mile drive

46
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 1: blew my mind. Awesome. I did not feel like so

47
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 1: much cool stuff in America. So yeah, it's it's fantastic.

48
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 1: So I got plenty to talk about. So as we

49
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 1: do get into it, let we always do. Let's do

50
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 1: some news, you know what, I'm gonna scrap what we

51
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 1: have here, not scrap, but to add something on the fly.

52
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,679
Speaker 1: Here is as we're doing this, Josh McCown has retired.

53
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 1: Hey the I mean, I wonder if the Hartford Colonials

54
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:51,520
Speaker 1: will retire his jersey. He had a good career though

55
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 1: that I remember the thing I remember about mcconnem most.

56
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:56,359
Speaker 1: He was with the Cardinals, and I remember I think

57
00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:57,920
Speaker 1: it was like a Thursday night game They're playing the

58
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 1: forty niners, and he was like my big quarterback sleeper

59
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 1: that week, and he just went off and had a

60
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,960
Speaker 1: huge game. I always remember that particular game when I

61
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,079
Speaker 1: think of Josh McCown and the fact that he played

62
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 1: for the Harvard Colon. How many years until Josh McCown

63
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:17,679
Speaker 1: becomes a coach in the NFL? Like, yeah, it won't

64
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 1: be long at all before he becomes a coach. Um

65
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:26,239
Speaker 1: this best season seen with the Jets. Uh started thirteen games, yards,

66
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: eighteen touchdowns, nine interceptions, and it was actually a very

67
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,120
Speaker 1: usable fantasy creet That was also the season? Was that

68
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 1: the season when he got helicopter trying to score on

69
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 1: a run and just got it. Might have been I

70
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 1: can't remember, I smoked right near the goal. Played for

71
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 1: a lot of teams, played for a lot of different teams.

72
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 1: Started with the Cardinals, a year at the Lions, year

73
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 1: with the Raiders. Wasn't seventeen season where he broke his

74
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 1: collar bone and came back into the game or something? Yeah,

75
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 1: I think so Hill? Yeah yeah, a machine Yeah, man, Um,

76
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 1: I think we're all agreed he's not making the fantasy

77
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 1: Ring of Honor. But where did Where did he go

78
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 1: to school? Was it was like Sam Hughes in State

79
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 1: or something. Yeah, I think he's I don't know if

80
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 1: he started there and went to s m U or

81
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 1: the other way. Around, but he he did spend some

82
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 1: time in MU as well. But hey, hats off to

83
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 1: Josh McCown A long long I don't think anybody would

84
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 1: have ever imagined that he would be in the league.

85
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,279
Speaker 1: What's seventeen years as long as he was, so a

86
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 1: long time. Yeah, So congratulations on his retirement. Other news,

87
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 1: James Conner says the running back touches in Pittsburgh will

88
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:28,040
Speaker 1: be spread out evenly. The drumbeat about a committee in

89
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh just keeps getting louder man it is, and I've

90
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 1: kind of reformed my opinion on it. I still think

91
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 1: James Conner could be an RB one and fantacy this year. Um,

92
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 1: but yeah, it definitely seems like the drumbeat is very,

93
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,160
Speaker 1: very loud that Steelers want to get Jalen Samuel's involved.

94
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 1: They like Benny snow took him in the fourth round

95
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 1: this year. James Conner obviously coming off a breakout season

96
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 1: within those thirteen games, but I kind of agree. I

97
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 1: think I've I've kind of come around a little bit.

98
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,280
Speaker 1: I think the Steelers are definitely probably gonna get the

99
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 1: very least they're gonna get Samuel's involved, So the second

100
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 1: round or now at this way for sure, because I've

101
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 1: seen it. I mean, we talked about it last week,

102
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 1: where you know, he was going ahead of girly um

103
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 1: and right in that David Johnson sort of range, and

104
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 1: so now it seems like he's gonna be dropping he

105
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 1: won't drop out of the second round. And I'm I

106
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 1: still it's sort of like one of those situations like

107
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 1: when I see it, I'll believe it because Tomlins always

108
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,719
Speaker 1: gone with a featured back, whether it's been Levian or

109
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:25,480
Speaker 1: D'Angelo I mean, Willie Parker. I mean, it's always been

110
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 1: a feature I mean Jalen Samuel was featured last season

111
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 1: when when Connor went down. So I wonder if maybe

112
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 1: it's are there question marks about whether or not Connor

113
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,680
Speaker 1: can handle the workload of a true featured back over

114
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 1: a sixteen game season. Um, are they going to utilize

115
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 1: Samuel's a little bit more in the passing game and

116
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 1: Connor will lose some of those opportunities. I think what's

117
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 1: most likely to happen here is like Levon bell And

118
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 1: and D'Angelo Williams in the past couple years, they're running

119
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:50,159
Speaker 1: backs have played of team snaps every single week. I

120
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,360
Speaker 1: think that's probably the most likely. Things like Connor ends

121
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 1: up playing like getting six of the team snaps and

122
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 1: they just mixed more, you know, Samuel's and snell In

123
00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,719
Speaker 1: a little bit more, which will limit Connor's ultimate ceiling.

124
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 1: You know, we obviously want more touches. But um yeah,

125
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 1: this is still a pretty pretty green light spot for Connor,

126
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 1: even if we do take a few snaps away from me.

127
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:09,840
Speaker 1: You know, the other part of this though, brand new

128
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator if Pittsburgh, Randy Fickner, who to this point

129
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 1: has only been an o C in college. Um So,

130
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 1: if somebody out there wants to be through some Arkansas

131
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 1: State tape and hook us up with some some tendencies,

132
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,160
Speaker 1: were glad for it. Fickner has been the he was

133
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 1: a quarterback coach in Pittsburgh for a really long for

134
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 1: a while, so technically, I guess tendency wise, maybe we

135
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,080
Speaker 1: could expect some some similar tendencies with their running back workload.

136
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean it does kind of sock like

137
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 1: we won't get a work horse Steelers running back this year.

138
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 1: I think we maybe an other part of that though,

139
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,479
Speaker 1: if and I agree, I think if people start to

140
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 1: believe this, Connor who's kind of fringe into the first

141
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 1: round right now drops out, who slides in Julio Jones,

142
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 1: Michael Thomas. I mean, I feel like I feel like

143
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,839
Speaker 1: it's probably a receiver that probably jumps into the Adams

144
00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:59,480
Speaker 1: is already basically going at the end of the first round.

145
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 1: He and he in nuper kind of battling for that

146
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:04,839
Speaker 1: one spot right now. So I think no doubt it's

147
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:08,039
Speaker 1: Mike T Julio. We take O'Dell Beckham Overconnor to now,

148
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:11,320
Speaker 1: I think it may I consider that a consider that

149
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: other news, Ronald Jones says he's ready to put his

150
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 1: disappointing rookie season in the past. This is a name

151
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,560
Speaker 1: that I'm starting to hear a little bit more of

152
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 1: in the last couple of I think we gave this

153
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 1: one to you because you're the u s from the

154
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 1: USC guys. Look, so I will I will preface it

155
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 1: by saying I I had high hopes for Rojoe coming

156
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 1: out of the draft last year. Obviously, last year was

157
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 1: a disaster in pretty much every sense of the word.

158
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 1: He could barely get on the field, was not productive

159
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 1: when he was on the field. But I think the

160
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 1: consensus was he was one of the big winners of

161
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 1: the off season in the sense that the Bucks didn't

162
00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 1: do anything to really shore up that running backs. So

163
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:51,040
Speaker 1: strange because they are one of the teams that was

164
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 1: most in need of a running back and they didn't

165
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 1: do anything right. So so, I mean, he averaged one

166
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 1: point nine yards per attempt last season. He's only got

167
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 1: Peyton Barber ahead of him on the depth chart. Peyton

168
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 1: actually was decent towards the end of the last season

169
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 1: for fantasy owners. So I kind of think this is

170
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 1: going to be a committee. But because of his youth,

171
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 1: because of projected upside, I still say he'll get drafted

172
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 1: ahead of Peyton Barber. Yeah, I think you will. Um.

173
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 1: I mean, he's still gonna be a late, late draft pick, um,

174
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 1: if at all. I'm sure that we plenty of the

175
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 1: leagues where he doesn't come off the board. And I

176
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,760
Speaker 1: think if there's any reason for optimism, it's that, you know, hey,

177
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 1: maybe Bruce arians can do something with him and kind

178
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 1: of give him going again. Yeah. I think what what's

179
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,080
Speaker 1: most likely happened though, is like Barbara and Jonones just

180
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 1: both get you know, like ten twelve touches the game

181
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:37,439
Speaker 1: and just kind of cancel it. I guess I've been

182
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:39,840
Speaker 1: I've been hoping for this all offseason and the Bucks

183
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 1: just go extremely pass heavy and like Evans Godwin and

184
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,080
Speaker 1: Hodward you know Howard just go to. Jamis is going

185
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 1: to be one of the biggest, like potential late around

186
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 1: bargains in fantasy football. Jamis. I'm at a point with

187
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 1: Jamis were like we were easily year five. Now with

188
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 1: Jami's like, we still don't really know what he is,

189
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,959
Speaker 1: Like just we're gonna find know this year. With Bruce Man,

190
00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 1: I think so, but we we will. I mean, the

191
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 1: there weapons are just stellar. They're all young, all technically

192
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 1: entering the peaks of their career. Chris Godwin, baby, I mean,

193
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 1: if Bruce can getting him to throw a better deep ball,

194
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,840
Speaker 1: it's all good. I mean, I really truly never thought

195
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 1: I could see somebody overthrow to Sean Jackson as consistently

196
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 1: as Jamis wins. So, I mean, Jamis is obviously a

197
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 1: gun slinger. I think that kind of comes with a

198
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 1: connotation that he's good at throwing, but he's not ever been.

199
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 1: He's not. He's never it's four years in the NFL.

200
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,480
Speaker 1: He's never been that great throwing over And let's also

201
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 1: remember too that last year, the combination of Jamis and

202
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 1: fits Magic was was like one of the best quarterbacks

203
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 1: behind Homes. I mean, and at this point, I mean,

204
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:51,720
Speaker 1: you're looking at Tampa's depth chart and fits Magic is

205
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:55,240
Speaker 1: now no longer in the mix. Backup quarterbacks are Ryan Grip,

206
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:59,680
Speaker 1: So I mean it's Jamis is not going to lose

207
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,720
Speaker 1: that top um. You wanna talk about a duo that

208
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:04,720
Speaker 1: was greater than some of its parts, man, I mean,

209
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,839
Speaker 1: like he's like Jamie's and Fitzpatrick separately and they're both

210
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 1: kind of like yeah, but together they somehow they formed

211
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,080
Speaker 1: like vultron and became a great fits Patrick like earlier

212
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:15,400
Speaker 1: in the season, was just he was he was nuts.

213
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 1: He was putting up huge numbers and he was like

214
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 1: that player and it happens every season where like the

215
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 1: numbers are there and you look him on the waiver

216
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 1: wine you're like, you can't keep up, and then you

217
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 1: don't pick him up. And that's that's kind of what

218
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 1: he what he became. But then it was just you know,

219
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,720
Speaker 1: Catcher's catch can if he was the quarterback, he was

220
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,440
Speaker 1: startable in fantasy. If it was Winston who was the quarterback,

221
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 1: he was startable in fantasy just because of the offense

222
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 1: and the fact that the Buccaneers played from behind a lot. Yeah,

223
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:44,719
Speaker 1: pretty much after Washington, Jake Gruden says Dwayne Haskins deserves

224
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:48,559
Speaker 1: a shot to start. Um, I mean, I don't think

225
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 1: that's a ridiculous statement. When you look at the depth

226
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 1: chart at quarterback there in Washington. You know Alex Smith

227
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,240
Speaker 1: obviously not expected to play at all this year, and

228
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 1: so they're gonna try and I guess the piece meals

229
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 1: something together offensive. Um, So, if Dwayne Haskins is a

230
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,360
Speaker 1: starter FABS, do you look at draft that you consider

231
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,640
Speaker 1: drafting him? And if so, where No? I mean so,

232
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:12,560
Speaker 1: I mean we're we're in the point of the off

233
00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 1: season where we're starting to do a lot of mock

234
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 1: drafts and industry drafts. I mean, like Ben Roethlisberg is

235
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:20,599
Speaker 1: not getting drafted, and and I've been in draft with

236
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 1: Tom Brady hasn't gotten drafted, and Kirk Cousins isn't getting drafted.

237
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 1: Like there's no way this guy's getting drafted in a

238
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:30,080
Speaker 1: in a standard redraft. It's just not speaking of speaking

239
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 1: of which I mean, I mean, guys is going to

240
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:33,960
Speaker 1: go in the fifth, six seventh round of all drafts.

241
00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:37,720
Speaker 1: Outside of guys, I mean, really, the only other draftable

242
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,840
Speaker 1: player on the Redskins this year is Jordan Reid, right,

243
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 1: I mean the receivers well, yeah, I mean Dockson has

244
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 1: been an abject disaster since he's coming to the league.

245
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:47,959
Speaker 1: Somebody may take a flyer on him late, but just

246
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:52,440
Speaker 1: because of potential opportunities and we're not have been talking

247
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:54,200
Speaker 1: about the old dude who rushed for a thousand yards

248
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:56,960
Speaker 1: last season. Yeah, I mean, so this team is just

249
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:01,760
Speaker 1: I don't know, man, if Haskins starts to I mean, like,

250
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 1: I just between Keenum and Haskins, they could end up

251
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:08,320
Speaker 1: being one of the worst teams in the league. I

252
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:12,160
Speaker 1: just don't. I don't see a path where more than

253
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 1: one or two people are fantasy relevant. And I just

254
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 1: think even their fantasy relevant guys will just be kind

255
00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: of average. Like, I don't, I don't see any really

256
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 1: stand out there. I don't. There's no one on that

257
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 1: roster that you can draft and feel like, you know what,

258
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 1: more more often than not, I will be starting for

259
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,760
Speaker 1: what it's where the Redskins should start Haskins week one,

260
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:31,839
Speaker 1: because we know what case keenum Is and let's go

261
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,199
Speaker 1: ahead and just find out just let's figure figure if

262
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 1: you if if you've got something in Haskins figured out

263
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:39,200
Speaker 1: now if he's ready to start startom especially in a division,

264
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 1: I mean just from a football standpoint, in a division

265
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:43,400
Speaker 1: where you've got the Eagles and the Cowboys who are

266
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 1: who are on paper significantly better than you, like, why

267
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:48,079
Speaker 1: why why not just figure out what you can and

268
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:49,720
Speaker 1: also think about it to the guys that they do

269
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,760
Speaker 1: have that are fantasy relevant. Uh, Chris Thompson has been

270
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:57,119
Speaker 1: super injury prone. Jordan read I mean in the dictionary

271
00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,080
Speaker 1: next to injury prone and got a picture of him.

272
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 1: So there's there. There's I mean, Darius is coming off

273
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 1: of a serious knee injury as well, but he looks

274
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 1: good if you look at his social media. This team

275
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,160
Speaker 1: could be such a disaster, especially if Trent Williams is

276
00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 1: off the roster next year. He's very unhappy with this contract.

277
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,559
Speaker 1: There's I was listening to serious NFL radio, I mean

278
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 1: where they're smoke, there's fire there, dude, Like, think about

279
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 1: the players that play for the Redskins who have had

280
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 1: issues in terms of like Alex Smith, Darius Right, Williams.

281
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 1: So their their team management too in terms of their injury.

282
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 1: Like in terms of injury management, I mean Trent Williams

283
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 1: has been dealt with injuries the past couple of years

284
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 1: and you know kind of had some setbacks. Darius Guys

285
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,439
Speaker 1: has had to have his knee. Yeah, he had infections.

286
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 1: Alex had infections also in his surgery. So like there's

287
00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 1: again where there's smoke, there's fire there in Washington. Uh,

288
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:48,480
Speaker 1: it's going to be an interesting situation. And that's why

289
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:50,680
Speaker 1: Williams wants out. That's why he wants out. And this

290
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 1: is gonna be a team that I think a lot

291
00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 1: of people shy away from in fantasy drafts. Over in

292
00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:59,600
Speaker 1: Green Bay, Marquez Valdez Scantling quote is probably the number

293
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 1: two receiver in Green Bay this year. I know, FABS

294
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,320
Speaker 1: last week when we talked about it, you kind of

295
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:08,520
Speaker 1: targeted Geronimo Allison, which looks that's not It wasn't crazy,

296
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:12,320
Speaker 1: It makes makes perfect sense. Uh MVS now seems to

297
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 1: be the guy, at least according to some reports. Does

298
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 1: this mean we have to change our draft ranks? Accordingly?

299
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 1: I want to wait and see. Honestly, I mean they

300
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 1: both when they had an opportunity. Last season, they both

301
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:26,720
Speaker 1: showed some flashes. Like people forget that when Doonoo Allison

302
00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 1: was on the field before he went down with the

303
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 1: with the injury, he was putting up double digit Fantasy points.

304
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 1: Like in PPR leagues. It wasn't you know, eighteen nine twenty.

305
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 1: But if you're getting low double digits from a number

306
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 1: three wide receiver or a flex starter, especially if you're

307
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 1: in a deeper league. I mean, I remember starting this

308
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:45,280
Speaker 1: guy a couple of times before he went down with

309
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 1: the injury, and then we had the same thing with

310
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 1: MVS where he had some games where he was putting

311
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:51,560
Speaker 1: up some numbers and then it kind of tailed off

312
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 1: a little bit. So it's gonna be an interesting battle.

313
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:55,600
Speaker 1: I think these are the two guys that you're gonna

314
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 1: be targeting behind Davante Adams, far behind Adams, way behind

315
00:14:59,920 --> 00:15:02,120
Speaker 1: the but they're both worth late ron flyers. You know,

316
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:05,160
Speaker 1: the thing about this Graham is that when when Aaron

317
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 1: Rodgers is right and when that offense is right, in

318
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 1: the past, we've seen he's able to sustain two or

319
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 1: three wide receivers. I mean, you know there were years

320
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 1: where you you had Jordy Nelson, Davante Adams, Randall Cobb

321
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:17,640
Speaker 1: All kind of getting some work in there. So if

322
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 1: if this new offense, you know under Matt Lafleur, he

323
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:25,240
Speaker 1: of the the busted ankle, now, uh, he's actually sitting

324
00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 1: on a cart, golf cart, Matt la Fleur, Kevin Durant

325
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:33,760
Speaker 1: there like exactly the same person. Um, alright, poor Warriors. Alright,

326
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 1: but you know, I mean, if if this offense really,

327
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 1: you know, has the revival that people expect, uh, then

328
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:43,160
Speaker 1: there is more than just Davantae Adams to look at

329
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:46,760
Speaker 1: that offense for sure. Um, last year, before Allison went

330
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 1: down to use the receiver, twenty six and PPR right

331
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 1: outside of the top twenty four had I think six

332
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:54,560
Speaker 1: year six yards and or a touchdown in every single game.

333
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:58,160
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, you mentioned it. Prior to last season, he

334
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 1: had supported to simultaneous twenty four receivers in six of

335
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 1: eight seasons. Six out of eight seasons he had to

336
00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 1: top two two top twenty four receivers. I'm just taking

337
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 1: Allison an NBS in all my weeks. Just target both

338
00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 1: of them. They're both going well past eighth, ninth round.

339
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, just just just get both absolutely another wide

340
00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:20,479
Speaker 1: receiver who will be very popular this year, Mike Williams.

341
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 1: He expects to have an expanded role this season. I

342
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:27,360
Speaker 1: don't think that's really a major shock to anybody. Uh

343
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 1: you know, Tyrelle Williams is now in Oakland, even with

344
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 1: Hunter Henry expected back. I mean, we saw what Mike

345
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:38,240
Speaker 1: Williams did last year on relatively few targets, and so

346
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,920
Speaker 1: I would think with more opportunities with him, you know,

347
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,240
Speaker 1: being healthy and getting in the flow of the offense.

348
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 1: I mean, this is a guy who, uh you know,

349
00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be productive. And I think right now,

350
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:50,200
Speaker 1: let's see what is his his draft prize, fifth round?

351
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 1: That feels about it. He he had a had a

352
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:56,880
Speaker 1: pretty solid season, ten touchdowns in his yardage sort of

353
00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 1: left a lot to be desired. And I know you

354
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:00,680
Speaker 1: had that one bananas game. Again it is the Chiefs

355
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:02,640
Speaker 1: on Thursday night, wasn't it. Didn't he rush for a

356
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 1: touchdown in that game too. I think he had like

357
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 1: I think three because that was the game. I think

358
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:07,840
Speaker 1: he also caught the two point conversion, right, but he

359
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,680
Speaker 1: is two conversion game. He is um. He is certainly

360
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 1: among my breakout candidates among wide receivers, Uh right right

361
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 1: up there. Maybe not with Chris Godwin, but but he's

362
00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:19,360
Speaker 1: in my top three or five, no doubt about that.

363
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,159
Speaker 1: In the offense, opportunity should be there. You know, Marcus

364
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,719
Speaker 1: mentioned that Tyroll Williams is now in Oakland and uh,

365
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 1: Philip Urvers is going to be throwing the football. So

366
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:29,440
Speaker 1: I definitely like what Williams is going to bring to

367
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:34,640
Speaker 1: the table, and especially as a red zone threat. Oh yes, yeah,

368
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 1: oh yes, as a red zone threat. He's Mike, Mike,

369
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:39,639
Speaker 1: Mike Williams is going to go off this year. I'm

370
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:42,320
Speaker 1: very excited, which, by the way, is he's going to

371
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:44,240
Speaker 1: break the curse of Mike Williams. Right there was like

372
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:49,080
Speaker 1: a handful of Mike Williams. Remember the Tampa Bay Mike Williams.

373
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,439
Speaker 1: I think it was his rookie year where he was

374
00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 1: really good and then and he fell off, and then

375
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 1: there was there was I know, you'll bring that one up. Well,

376
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,360
Speaker 1: so he was, I mean, he was amazing at college

377
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:04,399
Speaker 1: and then he followed Maurice Clarette and tried to go

378
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:06,359
Speaker 1: to the draft early, was forced to sit out, and

379
00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 1: that sort of hamstrung his career. And he had one

380
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:11,399
Speaker 1: really good year in Seattle, near the end of his career,

381
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:14,200
Speaker 1: and it was really hurt from him again. So yeah,

382
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 1: so like this Mike Williams right now, he is on

383
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:19,480
Speaker 1: on pace to be the greatest Mike Williams at least

384
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:21,680
Speaker 1: in recent memory when it comes to to wide receivers.

385
00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 1: So there you go. That's pretty much everything you need

386
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 1: to know. All right, it is June. We've gone through O, T,

387
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:43,440
Speaker 1: A S, Mini camps all that kind of stuff. Uh,

388
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 1: and this is when guys start to really talk up

389
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:49,320
Speaker 1: their teams or their teammates. Uh. And you know, this

390
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 1: is when we we kind of start because as Bob

391
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:53,960
Speaker 1: Harris told us last week, this is when we start

392
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 1: looking down kind of looking through the straw at the

393
00:18:56,640 --> 00:19:01,040
Speaker 1: minutes minute actions that happened here. And we sometime times overreact.

394
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:03,080
Speaker 1: Uh you know, I mean, I know it's weird to

395
00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:04,879
Speaker 1: hear that sometimes we over react to things that we

396
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:07,000
Speaker 1: read or here in the media, and then we you know,

397
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,879
Speaker 1: we draft accordingly. So now I got a handful of

398
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 1: stories here, and you guys can help me figure out

399
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:13,840
Speaker 1: if we should get on the hype train or if

400
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 1: this is a smoke screen, and maybe we should be

401
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 1: a little bit wary. Uh the first one. Russell Wilson says,

402
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 1: DK Metcalf is looking really really special. And you know,

403
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,080
Speaker 1: he said, obviously everybody knows that he can run, he

404
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:28,480
Speaker 1: can jump, he can catch, what have you. The mental

405
00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:32,560
Speaker 1: part of the game, he's really well advanced. Uh sounds great.

406
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:35,119
Speaker 1: We also though Russell Wilson has a habit of maybe

407
00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 1: inflating things and getting really excited about his teammates. I

408
00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 1: flashed back to maybe a week or two ago, there

409
00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 1: was a you know, a training camp video of DK

410
00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:47,720
Speaker 1: Metcalf rnning a comeback where he took like thirty seven

411
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:49,639
Speaker 1: and a half steps to stop and then turn back

412
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:53,760
Speaker 1: the other direction. So uh yeah, people people were kind

413
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 1: of picking that apart, which I know we tend to

414
00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,960
Speaker 1: do this time of year. Um, Graham, you and I

415
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,040
Speaker 1: were an Indie when we saw Metcalf just blow the

416
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:03,920
Speaker 1: roof off of Lucas Oil Stadium during the combine. I mean,

417
00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:08,440
Speaker 1: the straight line speed is great. The agily numbers, yeah,

418
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 1: not so much. Are we buying this right now? He's

419
00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:14,320
Speaker 1: in the perfect offense where he can just run fast

420
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 1: in a straight line or take a slant or a

421
00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:20,439
Speaker 1: crosser um to the house. I mean it's I just

422
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:23,159
Speaker 1: don't see how the Seahawks and you're one are going

423
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,480
Speaker 1: to ask him to run a super diverse route tree.

424
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:27,720
Speaker 1: Just it's not gonna happen. He's in a great offense

425
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:29,399
Speaker 1: where he's not going to be asked to be the

426
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,879
Speaker 1: number one receiver anytime soon. That'll go to Tyler Lockett,

427
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:35,600
Speaker 1: especially if he runs more of the slot. Um that

428
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 1: Calf's gonna get his a couple of targets deep targets

429
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:39,480
Speaker 1: per game, and UM, it'll be interesting to see. I

430
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 1: I don't know about you guys, but are you actively

431
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:48,720
Speaker 1: targeting DK Metcalf? And I haven't not at all. I mean,

432
00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:50,680
Speaker 1: he goes in that like nine tenth round range where

433
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:52,720
Speaker 1: it's like we just talked about Allison and NVS. I'd

434
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,280
Speaker 1: rather have those guys, right, no doubt. Well, and I

435
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:56,840
Speaker 1: just think, I mean, I don't know. I feel like

436
00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:58,920
Speaker 1: people have kind of locked in on DK Metcalf is

437
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,159
Speaker 1: like he's a good these in best ball option. But

438
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,600
Speaker 1: if we're talking about you know, week to week or whatever,

439
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 1: there's just so much unknown that the people that kind

440
00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,359
Speaker 1: of stayed away, and plus you're looking at an offense

441
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:11,800
Speaker 1: that's going to be predicated on the run, especially if

442
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 1: you listen to what they're talking about in terms of

443
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:18,800
Speaker 1: the ones who punch with Carson and getting Penny more involved. So, um, yeah,

444
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:22,120
Speaker 1: I would think there's gonna be some some place where

445
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,520
Speaker 1: he's gonna flash as a rookie and you're gonna look

446
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:26,400
Speaker 1: all I gotta run to the waiver wire and pick

447
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:28,440
Speaker 1: him up if he's available, and then three weeks straight

448
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:30,600
Speaker 1: he's gonna give you nothing. Uh. And I think that's

449
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:33,440
Speaker 1: gonna be what we're gonna see from Metcalf. We're gonna

450
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:36,359
Speaker 1: see some inconsistent stat lines, a guy who will probably

451
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:38,119
Speaker 1: be talking about a little bit more in terms of

452
00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:41,160
Speaker 1: being a breakout or potential impact player in Fantasy down

453
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 1: the road. Yeah so alright, So Russ, we're not all

454
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:49,840
Speaker 1: in on your excitement yet. Randall Cobb and Deck Prescott

455
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:53,639
Speaker 1: reportedly have formed a fast connection. Uh so, Fabs, you

456
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:56,840
Speaker 1: are the resident Cowboys fan here and and putting your

457
00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:01,720
Speaker 1: you know, obviously blue and silver optimism aside. Eyed. Um,

458
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 1: does this mean you're you're starting to maybe get back

459
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:08,679
Speaker 1: on the Randall cop bandwagon? Not? I mean, like i'd

460
00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:10,840
Speaker 1: like to say that I am. I like the addition

461
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:12,960
Speaker 1: because the Cowboys had a need there with Cole Beasley

462
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:17,840
Speaker 1: going to Buffalo. Um. I mean, he hasn't been durable

463
00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:20,920
Speaker 1: at all over the last couple of seasons. He went

464
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,359
Speaker 1: from a player who was considered one of maybe the

465
00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:26,159
Speaker 1: top ten or twelve wide receivers in fantasy football to

466
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:29,120
Speaker 1: quickly becoming a guy that was a late round pick.

467
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:33,280
Speaker 1: And now I haven't seen him drafted Marcus in mocks

468
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:36,520
Speaker 1: and otherwise I haven't seen him drafted at all. And

469
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:39,159
Speaker 1: I love it. I mean, I hope, I hope this

470
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 1: comes to fruition. But you know, z caught seventy plus

471
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:46,360
Speaker 1: passes last season. Jason Witten is gonna return, He's gonna

472
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:49,680
Speaker 1: probably eat up about fifty passes UH this season hopefully.

473
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:51,959
Speaker 1: As a Cowboys fan, maybe I'm being a little too optimistic.

474
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,760
Speaker 1: Of course, you've got Cooper, You've got Gallop in there

475
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:57,399
Speaker 1: as well, so there are going to be opportunities for

476
00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:59,679
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott to spread the football around. But we know

477
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:01,320
Speaker 1: the guy as they're going to eat in that offense,

478
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:05,119
Speaker 1: and I think if Cobb gives you sixty catches for

479
00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:08,000
Speaker 1: seven yards and five or six touchdowns, that's a nice

480
00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:10,639
Speaker 1: season for him and the Cowboys. Will take that because

481
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:12,480
Speaker 1: they don't need him to come in and make a

482
00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:14,119
Speaker 1: huge impact. What they need him to come in and

483
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:17,640
Speaker 1: do is actually stay on the field. Yeah. I mean,

484
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:19,240
Speaker 1: that's kind of the biggest thing with him, And I

485
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,520
Speaker 1: think anything you're sort of write anything they get from him.

486
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:23,879
Speaker 1: I won't say he's gravy, but I don't. I just

487
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:25,600
Speaker 1: don't know that it's enough for me to take a

488
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:28,119
Speaker 1: chance in draft. It does seem like injuries I just

489
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 1: kind of derailed his career. I hope he still got

490
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 1: a little bit of juice for I mean, yeah, double

491
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:36,119
Speaker 1: digit touchdowns, he was tremendous and then it's sort of

492
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,959
Speaker 1: all gone downhill from there. Yeah. So all right, So

493
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,439
Speaker 1: that's another one that's more probably more smoke screen than

494
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:46,000
Speaker 1: hype train. At this point, uh down to Jacksonville Leonard

495
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:50,960
Speaker 1: four nets, who is I have. I won't say I'm

496
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 1: targeting him in draft, but he just keeps falling in

497
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:55,200
Speaker 1: my lap and a lot of month drafts and it's

498
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,639
Speaker 1: always in the third round. Always in the third round

499
00:23:58,160 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 1: he falls in my lap. I feel like I can't

500
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:01,640
Speaker 1: pass him up, so I do that. But he says

501
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:04,639
Speaker 1: he expects to be a big part of the Jaguars

502
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:08,240
Speaker 1: passing game in nineteen. Now, this is a guy who

503
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:10,439
Speaker 1: has caught a grand total of fifty eight passes in

504
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 1: his first two seasons. Was not really known as a

505
00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:16,960
Speaker 1: big pass catcher at LSU UM. You know, Graham, they've

506
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:18,800
Speaker 1: got a ton of wide receivers that they're trying to

507
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:20,720
Speaker 1: cycle through down there. They've got Nick Foles at the

508
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,439
Speaker 1: quarterback spot. Are you buying that Leonard four Nett somehow

509
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:26,919
Speaker 1: becomes this big pass catcher there? No, but has he

510
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:30,920
Speaker 1: has average like like respectable nearly three receptions per game

511
00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:33,680
Speaker 1: UM in his very limited starts. Obviously we've only gotten

512
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 1: like maybe nineteen full starts out of four net and

513
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,320
Speaker 1: his but he's still average like three catches per game.

514
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,160
Speaker 1: I mean, it's huge for PPR and with four nets

515
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 1: touchdown ceiling. If he is slightly more involved in the

516
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 1: past game, he's i mean, max that he's going to

517
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:50,359
Speaker 1: give you what forty catches? Yeah, it's not bad, Yeah,

518
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:52,080
Speaker 1: it's not bad. I mean he's been a he has

519
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:55,920
Speaker 1: been a reliable pass catcher UM so far in his career,

520
00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:58,479
Speaker 1: which is I mean, obviously wasn't he was too too

521
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 1: much in that capacity? LS Well, I mean one plus

522
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:03,040
Speaker 1: in Jacksonville, they had you know, they had t J.

523
00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:06,440
Speaker 1: Yelled in there who catched the ball um Grant to

524
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:08,919
Speaker 1: I mean Corey Grant. We saw in a very limited sample.

525
00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,720
Speaker 1: They wanted to get him him more involved. The tepth

526
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:14,000
Speaker 1: chart in Jacksonville is just it's wide open for for

527
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:16,600
Speaker 1: not just to go right behind him. There's just nothing.

528
00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:22,120
Speaker 1: I mean there's nothing Thomas Farls Alfred Blue and yeah,

529
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 1: so so maybe that does happen. I kind of do

530
00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:26,840
Speaker 1: buy this one. I don't think this is necessarily a

531
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:28,600
Speaker 1: smoke screen. I don't think he's gonna go in in

532
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,320
Speaker 1: you know, average like I don't know s Kwon Barkley,

533
00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:36,640
Speaker 1: ridiculous something something observed. But I definitely think he could

534
00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 1: be more, way more involved in the passing game than

535
00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,240
Speaker 1: we're initially projecting. I think I think he could. He

536
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:43,679
Speaker 1: definitely could have a career there. All right, all right,

537
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:45,480
Speaker 1: so we'll we'll kind of we'll put a pin in that.

538
00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:48,359
Speaker 1: We'll sort of buying that one other running back, carry

539
00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:51,280
Speaker 1: On Johnson. According to Dave Burkett, who's been covering the

540
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:54,480
Speaker 1: Lions for a long time, he predicts that carry On

541
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 1: Johnson will catch at least sixty passes in nineteen No fabbs.

542
00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:02,560
Speaker 1: He called he caught thirty two. But you know he

543
00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:05,800
Speaker 1: he only played ten games, so so maybe sixty isn't

544
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:09,920
Speaker 1: that ridiculous. Maybe I'd take fifty out of him. I mean,

545
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,399
Speaker 1: if you projectedly posted as a rookie and you spread

546
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:14,399
Speaker 1: it over a full sixteen game season, he's right at

547
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:18,520
Speaker 1: fifty one. Um. But and I like him, and I

548
00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:21,120
Speaker 1: feel like he has that that that high rby two upside.

549
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,160
Speaker 1: I would caution fantasy owners though, that they are going

550
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:27,080
Speaker 1: to use c J Anderson. Okay, I know c J.

551
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,280
Speaker 1: He's a friend of mine. They're gonna use him. He's

552
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:33,800
Speaker 1: excited about the c J kJ connection as I as

553
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 1: I've called it uh to to c J. Um, He's

554
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,240
Speaker 1: gonna get his work now. I'm not saying he's gonna

555
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 1: break into carry Ons carries as he did to Todd

556
00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,320
Speaker 1: Gurley at the end of last season, But remember the

557
00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:47,960
Speaker 1: success that c J had. C J still got something

558
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:50,280
Speaker 1: left in the tank. And while carry On is going

559
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:53,120
Speaker 1: to lead this backfield in terms of overall touches, I

560
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:57,240
Speaker 1: don't see him being a true featured back. Allah Zeke Elliott,

561
00:26:57,280 --> 00:27:01,080
Speaker 1: allah se Kwon Barkley, uh, Dave vid Johnson, for example,

562
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,080
Speaker 1: I think he's going to get enough touches to be

563
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:06,600
Speaker 1: potentially a nice RB two. But I do think C. J.

564
00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:09,960
Speaker 1: Anderson is going to get in that mix and get

565
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:11,359
Speaker 1: his share of the I also feel like some of

566
00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:14,640
Speaker 1: that has to do with Matt Patricia as the head coach.

567
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 1: I mean, he really is trying to run it. He's

568
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:19,160
Speaker 1: trying to remake this team in the Patriots image, which

569
00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:22,720
Speaker 1: you know, good luck with that, have fun, right exactly?

570
00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:26,080
Speaker 1: But one thing we know. I mean, look, the term

571
00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:28,399
Speaker 1: Belatricks didn't come from nowhere, right, I mean, they just

572
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:30,840
Speaker 1: kept They never had a true workhorse back, and I

573
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:32,639
Speaker 1: have a feeling that Matt Patricia may try to keep

574
00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:35,440
Speaker 1: that going. This is a smoke screen. I mean, Theoretic

575
00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:37,800
Speaker 1: has caught fifty or more balls in three streets. It's

576
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 1: one year he did that in ten games. Um, the

577
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:42,399
Speaker 1: lines are gonna keep four running backs this year. I

578
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:46,080
Speaker 1: think they could keep Ti Johnson they their sixth round

579
00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:49,639
Speaker 1: pick over Theoretics. As I've read where he's he's kind

580
00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,119
Speaker 1: of a bubble guy. I've I've read where he's on

581
00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:52,880
Speaker 1: the roster bubble this year, which makes some sense because

582
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:54,920
Speaker 1: he truly is only a passing down back. But yeah,

583
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:57,439
Speaker 1: I mean, only nine running backs caught six year more

584
00:27:57,440 --> 00:27:58,879
Speaker 1: balls last year. If we can get to carry on

585
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,399
Speaker 1: like for like forty five fifty, I think he'll be

586
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:03,760
Speaker 1: a solid RBT. You know, it's like totally nuts about

587
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:08,480
Speaker 1: this whole situation. We for years leaned on Matthew Stafford

588
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:10,359
Speaker 1: is a guy that you can get late and he

589
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,120
Speaker 1: can help lead your team to the playoffs in fantasy football.

590
00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:17,280
Speaker 1: I mean, he was a top nine guy in what

591
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:20,320
Speaker 1: four or five seasons. Then last season came along and

592
00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 1: totally fell off a cliff. And now that Patricia is

593
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:25,800
Speaker 1: sort of, you know, out there talking about the fact

594
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:28,280
Speaker 1: that they're gonna want to run the football. Stafford's not

595
00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:31,960
Speaker 1: being drafted anymore. Stafford not being drafted. Stafford got his

596
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,920
Speaker 1: crazy fantasy stats through volume. The lines just stunk in.

597
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:38,000
Speaker 1: Calvin Johnson, God, Calvin Johnson. Calvin Johnson was got in

598
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,160
Speaker 1: the staff and Stafford and the line just through a ton.

599
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,000
Speaker 1: Now they're the complete opposite. They're going to try and

600
00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:45,080
Speaker 1: run a ton. Yeah. I mean the four year stretch

601
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:49,320
Speaker 1: from fourteen he averaged six hundred and fifty six passing attempts.

602
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 1: It was unreal. He had the season with seven hundred

603
00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 1: and twenty seven passes. Is that the most ever in

604
00:28:56,880 --> 00:29:00,200
Speaker 1: a single season? If not, it's it's like and is

605
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:02,840
Speaker 1: the NFL record. Luck was almost on pace to break that,

606
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:04,800
Speaker 1: and then the Colts wanted I think Bledsoe is up

607
00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:06,440
Speaker 1: there too. He had a single season where he had

608
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:08,920
Speaker 1: a huge number of past attempts. But yeah, so he

609
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,680
Speaker 1: and and the thing too is like, so he's got

610
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:15,040
Speaker 1: he's got baby Tron, and he's got Marv Jones coming back.

611
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:18,400
Speaker 1: They drafted Hockinson, so he has some weapons in the

612
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:21,200
Speaker 1: passing game. Unfortunately, you're not gonna see any more of

613
00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,720
Speaker 1: the Matthew Stafford throwing the ball fifty times games. So

614
00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:28,480
Speaker 1: UM carry on Johnson clearly um the top fantasy option

615
00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:31,160
Speaker 1: in Detroit, and Matthew Stafford goes from a guy who's

616
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:36,400
Speaker 1: going to be guaranteed to become a fantasy uh asset

617
00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:39,400
Speaker 1: to someone who's gonna start the season on the waiver wire.

618
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 1: I'm just looking at Stafford's career numbers and it's wild

619
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:45,040
Speaker 1: to me that he only has two seasons with thirty

620
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:50,000
Speaker 1: or more touchdowns. That's crazy. Lots of yards, lots of yards.

621
00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 1: One of the few guys that's thrown for over five thousand,

622
00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:55,280
Speaker 1: he had a forty nine sixty seven one year as well. Um,

623
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 1: the one big year was the where he had over

624
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 1: five thousand and forty one touch touchdowns. Um, and just

625
00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:03,840
Speaker 1: has never really kind of come close to that sense.

626
00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:07,040
Speaker 1: All Right, it's the last one, and I'm just gonna

627
00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:08,400
Speaker 1: go out and say that we all believe this is

628
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:10,920
Speaker 1: a Eddie answer this one. All right, Yeah, we'll get

629
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:15,720
Speaker 1: Eddie on this. Pat Shermer has reportedly not ruled out

630
00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones as a potential Week one starter. Are you

631
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:23,800
Speaker 1: buying this, Eddie? The thing about reading this is that

632
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 1: I think it's more to do with how bad Eli

633
00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:28,760
Speaker 1: is as opposed to how good Daniel Jones is, because

634
00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:31,480
Speaker 1: I think no matter if Dale Jones was, you know,

635
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:34,720
Speaker 1: the same exact type of player that like Kyler Murray is,

636
00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 1: for example, it doesn't matter because the Manning name is

637
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,800
Speaker 1: just too powerful to the Giants organization first for whatever reason.

638
00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:43,200
Speaker 1: Like I'm sure you guys have seen the videos of

639
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,200
Speaker 1: Eli and training camp. He can't throw the ball to

640
00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:48,320
Speaker 1: the sidelines, So like if to me, that just speaks

641
00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:49,800
Speaker 1: more of Eli just not bend to do it, and

642
00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:51,640
Speaker 1: the coaches like, enough enough, already, gotta get this guy

643
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:53,840
Speaker 1: out of here. That being said, I happen to like

644
00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 1: what I've seen from Daniel Jones, and the dual threat

645
00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:58,720
Speaker 1: thing is probably cool, but I think it's just really

646
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:00,680
Speaker 1: a crisis mode of like, oh, guy we thought was

647
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:02,760
Speaker 1: gonna at least start half the season can't even start

648
00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:05,960
Speaker 1: a single game. I also wonder like if, I mean,

649
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 1: if Eli comes out and just he just no longer

650
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 1: has it, if he really can't get the ball to

651
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:14,000
Speaker 1: the sideline, does does Dame Gentleman sort of you know,

652
00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:16,240
Speaker 1: does he retract a little bit? Does he say, hey, look,

653
00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:18,720
Speaker 1: maybe this isn't the guy anymore. He won't because he's

654
00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 1: like kind of fulled himself. But I was I was

655
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:22,600
Speaker 1: reading stuff today from like the Beat Riders and stuff,

656
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:24,280
Speaker 1: and they were like, if if the joint and that

657
00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:26,400
Speaker 1: their scheduled, the first like six or seven games are

658
00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:28,800
Speaker 1: really tough, and if they come out and score like

659
00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:31,080
Speaker 1: three points in the home opening or something like the

660
00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:34,680
Speaker 1: first game, it's gonna be madness and like and that's

661
00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:36,120
Speaker 1: the worst case snary because you don't want to put

662
00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:37,960
Speaker 1: a guy like Daniel Jones, who was coming from a

663
00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:41,000
Speaker 1: place like duke in right away and have like have

664
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:43,200
Speaker 1: no help from the on the veteran level, because like

665
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,200
Speaker 1: you can't. You can't have Alex Tanney be out playing

666
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 1: ELI and you're in in May and June. It's just

667
00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:51,520
Speaker 1: it's it's awful. So it's it's a scary playing. We're

668
00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:54,520
Speaker 1: playing you guys the first season. I know, yeah, I

669
00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:56,760
Speaker 1: like that. I assume that you guys also believe this

670
00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:59,000
Speaker 1: is a smoke screen though that uh you know. I

671
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:02,000
Speaker 1: mean unless unless he's arm absolutely falls off or something

672
00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:07,480
Speaker 1: between now and September, it's smokes. It's a smoke screen.

673
00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:12,560
Speaker 1: I mean ELI has been cooked for a while. I mean, yes,

674
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,320
Speaker 1: it's times as I mean as much as like as

675
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:19,239
Speaker 1: much as I wanted them to move on and just

676
00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:21,239
Speaker 1: still the thing is like, and he was throwing those

677
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 1: dump offs, Everyone's like, oh the online is bad and

678
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:25,920
Speaker 1: stake on so good, get stake on the ball. Now,

679
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:28,480
Speaker 1: it's like watching him throw it's like, oh no, it

680
00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:30,480
Speaker 1: wasn't because there's a reason he was still the reason

681
00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:32,400
Speaker 1: he can from the ball across the numbers. Like that's

682
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:36,120
Speaker 1: really it. I mean, I just I wonder how much

683
00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:39,120
Speaker 1: this is gonna be like watching Peyton's last days right where,

684
00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:41,040
Speaker 1: like you know, I just remember that last that Super

685
00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:45,320
Speaker 1: Bowl run that the Broncos had, um Peyton had like one,

686
00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:47,880
Speaker 1: maybe one or two really good throws in him, and

687
00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:49,600
Speaker 1: you would see early in the game he would try

688
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:51,680
Speaker 1: to take his shots down field because you sort of

689
00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:54,960
Speaker 1: knew mid second quarter, early third quarter it just wasn't

690
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:56,760
Speaker 1: gonna be there anymore. And I just have a feeling

691
00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:58,800
Speaker 1: that that Eli is at that point now where maybe

692
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:00,640
Speaker 1: you get a couple of really an I throws out

693
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:02,880
Speaker 1: of him every week, but if you're asking him to

694
00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:05,400
Speaker 1: throw the ball thirty times, it's just not gonna be there.

695
00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:07,680
Speaker 1: There was a game I remember, I don't remember what season,

696
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:10,480
Speaker 1: it was, maybe his last season or next to last season,

697
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:14,000
Speaker 1: where you could start to see that Peyton was losing it.

698
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,360
Speaker 1: And it was against the Bengals, and and it was

699
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:19,120
Speaker 1: in a week sixteen because I was playing in Fantasy Championship,

700
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:23,840
Speaker 1: uh and I started him and he just absolutely wrecked me.

701
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:26,160
Speaker 1: He had three or four picks. I don't remember what

702
00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:27,720
Speaker 1: it was. I think it was against the Bengals, and

703
00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:30,680
Speaker 1: at that point you could see that he was starting

704
00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:33,160
Speaker 1: to come apart. And then the following season. He was

705
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:36,160
Speaker 1: a very popular bust candidate in Fantasy Land and he,

706
00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:40,600
Speaker 1: unfortunately for him, lived up to that. Yeah, so so

707
00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:43,600
Speaker 1: hype trainers, smoke screen. Um, we'll do some more of

708
00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:45,480
Speaker 1: these before we get to the There's gonna be a

709
00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:46,760
Speaker 1: lot of them. There will be a lot of them,

710
00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:49,320
Speaker 1: especially once training camp opened, and like everybody is b

711
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:51,160
Speaker 1: s O H L and uh. He had to talk

712
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:52,840
Speaker 1: about how great everything is gonna be this season will

713
00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:54,120
Speaker 1: helpfull We should not, you know what we should do,

714
00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:57,920
Speaker 1: like seriously, we should like just document like every player

715
00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:01,560
Speaker 1: that on Fantasy Twitter goes nuts at some point or

716
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:04,640
Speaker 1: another and look back and be like, boy, that one

717
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,680
Speaker 1: didn't turn out very good, you know, like Kim Butler

718
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:10,560
Speaker 1: and now like you know with Henderson in l A.

719
00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:13,759
Speaker 1: I would love to document that. And because they're you know,

720
00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:15,719
Speaker 1: doing what we do. We see this all the time

721
00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:17,920
Speaker 1: where the's certain dudes in the industry that jump on

722
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:20,400
Speaker 1: a player and then other players, other dudes in the

723
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:22,640
Speaker 1: industry jump on that as well, and everyone all of

724
00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:24,319
Speaker 1: a sudden is starting to talk about this player as

725
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:27,000
Speaker 1: if like James Washington is getting into that mix as well.

726
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:28,960
Speaker 1: We should document that and be like, yeah, you remember

727
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,279
Speaker 1: how the hype with Darrell Henderson last preseas? Oh yeah,

728
00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:34,279
Speaker 1: that's right. Yeah, that's before Toddy Gurley rushed for eighteen

729
00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:36,440
Speaker 1: hundred yards. I just remember the few years ago the

730
00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:43,280
Speaker 1: uh was it the Zach Sudfeld, Hey Gronks hurt Maneld.

731
00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 1: That's why everyone's like, oh Castle, yea, Gronkowski wasn't good

732
00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:52,440
Speaker 1: last season. I mean it was just like, hey, gronkz Hurd,

733
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:54,680
Speaker 1: He's not gonna play the first couple of weeks like this,

734
00:34:54,680 --> 00:35:00,880
Speaker 1: this could be his time out. Awful. Yeah, Hard Knocks

735
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:05,000
Speaker 1: has announced its team for the nineteen season. It is

736
00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:09,040
Speaker 1: the Oakland Raiders. Uh. Look, I don't know how you

737
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:10,520
Speaker 1: guys felt about that. I just kind of felt like

738
00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:13,120
Speaker 1: this was sort of inevitable, right, I mean it was.

739
00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:15,200
Speaker 1: But do you think they should have waited until their

740
00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:17,640
Speaker 1: first year in Vegas because now they can't go back

741
00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:19,760
Speaker 1: to him? Yeah, except I wonder if the league probably

742
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,319
Speaker 1: wouldn't have allowed because you know, there are stipulations where

743
00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:24,400
Speaker 1: teams are allowed to say they have a team in

744
00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:28,920
Speaker 1: Las Vegas. Marcus. I feel like I feel like the

745
00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:31,040
Speaker 1: first time you're there, I'm sure the league would be like, Okay,

746
00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:33,640
Speaker 1: let's let you get settled first before you can do

747
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:36,879
Speaker 1: a hard knocks, but you can't show a casino. Yeah,

748
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:40,400
Speaker 1: good luck, good luck. Yeah, this was inevitable and I

749
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:43,000
Speaker 1: cannot wait for the circus. I can't wait. I mean

750
00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:45,440
Speaker 1: John Gruden is gonna be well, think about it. Yeah, yeah, Gordon,

751
00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:49,600
Speaker 1: you've got You've got Marshawn Lynchell making appearance at some points.

752
00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:54,800
Speaker 1: Is perfect. Is on the team. Richie Incognito is there? Yeah,

753
00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:58,000
Speaker 1: I mean it should be. It should be great reality teleingent,

754
00:35:58,160 --> 00:35:59,840
Speaker 1: Like these are the guys, I mean, these are the

755
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 1: are the obvious stars of the show, right, Like I

756
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:03,879
Speaker 1: feel like there's gotta be somebody else that we're not

757
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:08,399
Speaker 1: thinking about that's gonna hunter get him in there. This

758
00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:11,560
Speaker 1: guy is twenty one years old or thereabouts, and he

759
00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:15,560
Speaker 1: looks like he's, you know, forty five year old dad

760
00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:18,720
Speaker 1: with three kids. Since he was at Clemson for thirteen years.

761
00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:21,280
Speaker 1: Look at his picture. If you guys do a Google

762
00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:24,279
Speaker 1: search for for Renfro and his his team picture, it's

763
00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:29,320
Speaker 1: it's it's not the padres. It's something there are in

764
00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:31,840
Speaker 1: the world. It's something, it's something to see, it's something

765
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:34,880
Speaker 1: to see the picture from I'm guessing it's from the

766
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:39,239
Speaker 1: rookie event at the knee. It's the widow's peak that

767
00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:42,879
Speaker 1: he's yes in that photos helping. Like when you see him,

768
00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:47,719
Speaker 1: you don't think slot receiver Oakland Raiders. Yeah, you think

769
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:51,520
Speaker 1: he's selling car insurance in Connecticut. So yeah, so he

770
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:53,240
Speaker 1: maybe one. I'm just trying to I'm trying to scroll

771
00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:55,080
Speaker 1: through this roster and try to figure out the guys

772
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:58,120
Speaker 1: who may the kind of you know being, because there's

773
00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:00,319
Speaker 1: always the one or two guys that you may have

774
00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:02,560
Speaker 1: never heard much about or whatever that ends up just

775
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:05,440
Speaker 1: kind of being really goofy and funny. Uh. It kind

776
00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:08,040
Speaker 1: of shows up the other the other question I had

777
00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 1: about this. Every year there's somebody offensively that gets an

778
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,520
Speaker 1: irrational bump fantasy wise, right, like he'll make a couple

779
00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:18,399
Speaker 1: of plays in practice, maybe he has a decent preseason game.

780
00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:21,600
Speaker 1: We we follow his story on hard Knocks, and suddenly

781
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:24,320
Speaker 1: like everybody's trying to draft this guy. It'll be Josh Jacobs,

782
00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:29,280
Speaker 1: Darren Waller, He'll be Darren Waller. I was going Tyrolle Williams,

783
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:32,760
Speaker 1: but we got all three different. I mean, Josh Jacobs,

784
00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:35,400
Speaker 1: everybody is gonna be I mean, if he looks good

785
00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:38,160
Speaker 1: in the preseason, and he's got an interesting story and

786
00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:40,680
Speaker 1: about he'll bounce up like round two or three or something.

787
00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:43,960
Speaker 1: You know, if he's well right now, I mean four, five,

788
00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:48,560
Speaker 1: I mean five, he'll probably be gone. Jacobs, he's moving up, man,

789
00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:51,080
Speaker 1: he's moving up. I think Darren Waller will probably get

790
00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:52,840
Speaker 1: some sleeper appeals. Some people will see that he's like

791
00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:54,919
Speaker 1: six six and can actually move, but he's never played

792
00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:59,200
Speaker 1: carrier and Luke Wilson that's one heck of a trio.

793
00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:01,160
Speaker 1: I you know what I have to I have to

794
00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:03,400
Speaker 1: bow out on Raiders tight ends. There were years that

795
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:05,520
Speaker 1: I I just I would always try to predict a

796
00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:08,040
Speaker 1: Raider's tight end and it would just never work out

797
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:12,040
Speaker 1: for me. And you're coming off of season where I

798
00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:16,040
Speaker 1: remember O J. Santiago remember him? Yeah, I believe he

799
00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:18,600
Speaker 1: was an Ohio State product. He came in and he

800
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:22,520
Speaker 1: had a little bit of fantasy value during during his career.

801
00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:26,399
Speaker 1: But if we look back, I mean, obviously the best

802
00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:28,440
Speaker 1: Raiders tight end of all time. You know Todd Christensen,

803
00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:32,279
Speaker 1: See he played a long time ago. You weren't even

804
00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:36,879
Speaker 1: born long since, Christian you know, the team, the team

805
00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:40,319
Speaker 1: that has had the longest drought without like having a

806
00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:43,720
Speaker 1: fantasy relevant tight end. The Cardinals, right, Cardinals and the Jets.

807
00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:47,960
Speaker 1: It was the last time the Jets had like Herndon now.

808
00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:50,760
Speaker 1: But honestly, like you're you're looking back to like Johnny Mitchell,

809
00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:53,560
Speaker 1: I mean a long time ago, right, I mean they

810
00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:56,200
Speaker 1: had Jayson Marrow though everyone thought was going to be

811
00:38:56,239 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 1: something and he'd end up being anything. So I'm going

812
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:02,799
Speaker 1: back through Raiders titles Clive Walford and Michael Rivera. And

813
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:05,680
Speaker 1: Michael Rivera remember was like a potential sleeper, didn't. I

814
00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:07,480
Speaker 1: mean he's like, these are like all these guys that

815
00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:09,440
Speaker 1: like I tried to cape up for and they just

816
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:14,839
Speaker 1: Brandon Meyers. Like the Raiders have Eric Swope right now.

817
00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:18,239
Speaker 1: They Brandon Meyers. Yeah, that that's another good one who

818
00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:21,879
Speaker 1: was a former basketball player, which you know automatically means

819
00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:23,359
Speaker 1: you're a Hall of Famer at this point. You know,

820
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:30,239
Speaker 1: Antonio Gates, uh, Tony Gonzalez. Eric Swope just spits right in,

821
00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:32,799
Speaker 1: just fits right in, fits right in. So that leads

822
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:35,160
Speaker 1: us to our social poll as we get ready to

823
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:39,240
Speaker 1: wrap things up here, um the best Hard Knocks season,

824
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:42,920
Speaker 1: and I picked out four based on a list generated

825
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,520
Speaker 1: by a t n S. Dan hands Is, who is

826
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:49,239
Speaker 1: in the building maybe the biggest Hard Knocks expert every year. Uh,

827
00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:52,000
Speaker 1: he does weekly recaps of the show. And if there's

828
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:56,000
Speaker 1: anybody in in our company that knows more about the

829
00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:59,120
Speaker 1: Hard Knocks series, I dare you to find him. So

830
00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:00,960
Speaker 1: I took Dan Hands us his list. I took the

831
00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:03,839
Speaker 1: top four on his list, and as always, you guys

832
00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:06,520
Speaker 1: are welcome to give us some writing votes if you want.

833
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:11,560
Speaker 1: But the Jets in and uh, you know I had

834
00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:13,839
Speaker 1: to put Masters there because hands this is is a noted

835
00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:16,640
Speaker 1: Jets fan. But you know this also gave us the

836
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:19,319
Speaker 1: Rex Ryan Let's go have a g D snack, which

837
00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:21,120
Speaker 1: maybe is still one of the greatest lines in the

838
00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:24,880
Speaker 1: history of the show. Uh Brown's last season, you know,

839
00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:27,520
Speaker 1: so we got the Hugh Jackson. You know, we had

840
00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:30,960
Speaker 1: the Baker Mayfield coming in UM, which was kind of

841
00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:34,360
Speaker 1: an interesting one. The Texans in twenty fifteen, which you

842
00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:39,720
Speaker 1: know I remember for Vince Wilfork in his overalls and

843
00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:44,000
Speaker 1: Brian Cushing just just puking his guts out on the field.

844
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:49,320
Speaker 1: Brian Cushing just being complete complete meet him. Yeah, I

845
00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:51,600
Speaker 1: mean I was gonna say animal, I mean he's practice

846
00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:54,200
Speaker 1: and we got to see j J watch just absurd

847
00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:57,800
Speaker 1: work his workouts. Yeah, him like him with the jugs machine,

848
00:40:57,920 --> 00:41:00,840
Speaker 1: just one handing a jugs machine from like you know,

849
00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:04,960
Speaker 1: five feet away or whatever. It was just ridiculous. Fingers um.

850
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:08,200
Speaker 1: And then number four the Bucks in seventeen, which you

851
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:11,080
Speaker 1: want to talk about hard knocks hype, the Jameis Winston

852
00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:14,880
Speaker 1: hard knocks hype a fantasy wise from that seventeen show

853
00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:17,200
Speaker 1: was just off the chart. Like I know, I I know,

854
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:20,239
Speaker 1: I bought into Jamis Winston that year and uh, that

855
00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:22,880
Speaker 1: didn't that. But I think the Bucks team, um, that

856
00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 1: two thousand seventeen, the team, they just had a bunch

857
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:27,960
Speaker 1: of great personalities. I thought that was a super entertaining

858
00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:30,879
Speaker 1: hard knocks. Speaking of social media, by the way, did

859
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 1: you guys follow j uh No, and I won't be no,

860
00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:37,960
Speaker 1: I can't, can't. I like to see train wreck, so

861
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:40,120
Speaker 1: I had to do it. So I usually tweeted out

862
00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:43,200
Speaker 1: like three three things. So far he's almost got seven

863
00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:45,759
Speaker 1: hundred thousand followers, I'm sure. And here's the accounts that

864
00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:49,200
Speaker 1: he followed. He there's only eight. Yes, I can't. I

865
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:52,200
Speaker 1: can't wait for that word, so so can you guys,

866
00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:54,280
Speaker 1: you want to take a guess. So he's he's following

867
00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:56,360
Speaker 1: eight accounts so far. Like a couple of them you

868
00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:59,000
Speaker 1: won't get, but some of them you might. So take

869
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:07,080
Speaker 1: a guess. Uh, let's see, like Chris Jenner's gotta be one, right, No, Um,

870
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:11,759
Speaker 1: let's say like, let's let's say USC football, yes, okay, Um,

871
00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:16,000
Speaker 1: the Bills, yes, okay, Um, the Bills are part of

872
00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:20,759
Speaker 1: the NFL. That's another one. Okay. What is his favorite pastime?

873
00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:24,120
Speaker 1: So he's like the PGA or something. Yes, okay, Now,

874
00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:27,680
Speaker 1: so one of them you, I mean, I guess I'm

875
00:42:27,719 --> 00:42:29,880
Speaker 1: not surprised there's an account for this, but there is.

876
00:42:30,120 --> 00:42:32,799
Speaker 1: And then the other three. Uh, maybe one of them

877
00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:36,200
Speaker 1: you would get. But uh, he's also very well known

878
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:41,640
Speaker 1: for playing at USC and winning the trophy. Yes okay uh.

879
00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:48,320
Speaker 1: And then Justin Simpson that's his son, Yes, Malcolm Laverne,

880
00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:51,440
Speaker 1: I'm it's at Sin City Attorney. Maybe that's the guy

881
00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:57,000
Speaker 1: who got him out playing. And then Tim Graham, who's uh,

882
00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:01,960
Speaker 1: that's a he's that's a interesting. That's also interesting that

883
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:05,640
Speaker 1: he follows the h Look this is so this is

884
00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:08,200
Speaker 1: because I'm so I don't know what it is. About

885
00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:11,040
Speaker 1: that whole thing. But like anytime there's a new documentary

886
00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:12,920
Speaker 1: about him, like I have to watch it every like

887
00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:14,799
Speaker 1: I have to watch it. I don't know why. I'm

888
00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:18,279
Speaker 1: just just the whole situation. So it's just ridiculous, as

889
00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:23,480
Speaker 1: it always has kind of rankled me that, like, oh J,

890
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:28,279
Speaker 1: look he was he was found libel of murder. Right,

891
00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:31,960
Speaker 1: he gets to keep his heisman trophy. Reggie Bush's parents

892
00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:36,279
Speaker 1: got a house. He's persona non grana, right, like he

893
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:40,040
Speaker 1: had to take everything down, right, like like no one

894
00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:42,759
Speaker 1: died with Reggie Bush, but he didn't get to keep

895
00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:46,480
Speaker 1: his heisman trophy. That that is always bothered he O.

896
00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:49,120
Speaker 1: J has liked one tweet and it was basically about

897
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:52,319
Speaker 1: how quickly he's gotten a fifty Twitter followers. I think

898
00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:55,200
Speaker 1: this is like an ego thing more than anything else. Yeah,

899
00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:58,239
Speaker 1: it's gotta be, and it's gotta be. And I've I've

900
00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:00,160
Speaker 1: seen some people out there that say, don't like what

901
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:02,800
Speaker 1: J Simpson. I gotta see. I mean, you gotta see.

902
00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:06,440
Speaker 1: I don't have any moral moral against well, I mean,

903
00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:08,279
Speaker 1: like we always worse. I'm not going to tell people

904
00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:11,040
Speaker 1: not to people who they want to follow, but I

905
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:14,120
Speaker 1: will not be any I will not have followed Bill

906
00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:17,120
Speaker 1: Cosby tweeted something off for Father's Day. That that can't be.

907
00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:25,120
Speaker 1: That can't be him, can't be like, yeah, look at

908
00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:27,640
Speaker 1: his account, he's so Like I was just thinking, you

909
00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:30,000
Speaker 1: know of a couple of guys who sort of, you know,

910
00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:32,480
Speaker 1: falling from grace. I mean, I guess that's that's sort

911
00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:38,120
Speaker 1: of putting it lightly. I don't Bill Cosby. Hey, hey, hey,

912

922
00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:13,120
Speaker 1: I think, you know what, I follow jose Canseco, which

923
00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:17,160
Speaker 1: is a train wreck enough on Twitter, so you know

924
00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:19,359
Speaker 1: what that could be? That could be like next week

925
00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:21,520
Speaker 1: we'll talk about that, Like maybe that could be a poll,

926
00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:25,800
Speaker 1: Like what celebrity like who's on Twitter just should not be?

927
00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:28,680
Speaker 1: You know, all I want to know is I want

928
00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 1: a you know now that now that OJ is on Twitter,

929
00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:34,160
Speaker 1: if we get some sort of three way Twitter convo

930
00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:37,560
Speaker 1: between him, jose Can Saco, and like Magic Johnson, that

931
00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:39,520
Speaker 1: be the best, Oh man, that would be the best.

932
00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:42,520
Speaker 1: J has so much like intrigue though towards like the

933
00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:46,000
Speaker 1: like the public just seems to flock to him. It's

934
00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:48,200
Speaker 1: like this weird thing where people are upset, like his

935
00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:50,080
Speaker 1: story is, are we one of the biggest stories in

936
00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:53,439
Speaker 1: like American like call it was like that that took

937
00:45:53,480 --> 00:45:55,239
Speaker 1: over Remember the NBA Finals, so I think it was

938
00:45:55,320 --> 00:46:02,400
Speaker 1: rockets next right, which was relegated to these small exactly

939
00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:04,800
Speaker 1: Like that. One of the things, and there's a million

940
00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:07,080
Speaker 1: things that fascinated me about this whole situation was like

941
00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:11,239
Speaker 1: the people were cheering him. Yeah, the man, the man,

942
00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:17,120
Speaker 1: but at that murdered people at that time, people didn't

943
00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:19,279
Speaker 1: just people. O. J was so beloved that no one

944
00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:21,359
Speaker 1: believed he could have done it. I remember the day

945
00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:23,760
Speaker 1: the story broke and this guy who was sort of annoying.

946
00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:25,480
Speaker 1: And my I was a senior in high school. My

947
00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:27,600
Speaker 1: math class comes up to me. I hadn't even heard

948
00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:29,560
Speaker 1: the story. He comes with me, he says, so do

949
00:46:29,600 --> 00:46:31,200
Speaker 1: you think o J did it? I was like, did what?

950
00:46:31,400 --> 00:46:33,360
Speaker 1: And he said, murdered his wife. And my response was

951
00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:35,680
Speaker 1: that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Go away, you know,

952
00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:39,200
Speaker 1: And because I thought O J was so beloved at

953
00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:41,680
Speaker 1: that time, and it was just it was unfathomable that

954
00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:45,280
Speaker 1: he could do something so so funny, small, weird, little

955
00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:48,560
Speaker 1: thing about And I apologize for getting this completely off

956
00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:52,759
Speaker 1: the crass, I mean, very small, but like, um, when

957
00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:56,680
Speaker 1: Bundy and Goldman were found, it was June. I was

958
00:46:56,840 --> 00:47:03,080
Speaker 1: born the day after. Really wow, man, And I've actually

959
00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:07,440
Speaker 1: gone to the spot, to that area. I've these and

960
00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:10,160
Speaker 1: like every time I go through Brentwood, like and Brentwood

961
00:47:10,160 --> 00:47:13,279
Speaker 1: Country Club is right there. I always They knocked down

962
00:47:13,360 --> 00:47:17,040
Speaker 1: his house, yes, but but the murder is still around.

963
00:47:17,239 --> 00:47:19,440
Speaker 1: Well know the house where the murders took place has

964
00:47:19,480 --> 00:47:23,320
Speaker 1: been torn down right exactly? Um, well it was partially

965
00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:26,719
Speaker 1: because it it became kind of a weird, ghoulish tourists

966
00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:28,920
Speaker 1: stops would drive by it all and the people who

967
00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:32,279
Speaker 1: but the house didn't want that right, right? But I

968
00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:35,319
Speaker 1: mean you can go by like where it happened. I mean,

969
00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:37,840
Speaker 1: it just doesn't look anything like that. And then and

970
00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:41,640
Speaker 1: then the building I think where we're Nicole lived also,

971
00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:44,120
Speaker 1: but what about his house still? His house gone to?

972
00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:47,279
Speaker 1: The house is gone? House is gone? How is gone?

973
00:47:47,360 --> 00:47:50,319
Speaker 1: Right there? My parents and they visited again. People who

974
00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:52,439
Speaker 1: are obsessed with the story made me drive to both

975
00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:54,239
Speaker 1: and I was like, I don't think we're gonna see

976
00:47:54,239 --> 00:47:56,480
Speaker 1: anything because think both things are actually gone. Yeah yeah,

977
00:47:57,000 --> 00:47:59,239
Speaker 1: but I mean like obviously you know there's something else

978
00:47:59,280 --> 00:48:02,439
Speaker 1: there now. So but but that's that's where it happens.

979
00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:04,279
Speaker 1: I mean, how Kato Kaylin is still kicking around, dude.

980
00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:07,120
Speaker 1: I was at a party with Kayle believe it or not.

981
00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:10,239
Speaker 1: I was at Jerry Cantrell's birthday party earlier in the year,

982
00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:14,000
Speaker 1: and freaking Kato Kalen showed up and I was I

983
00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:18,240
Speaker 1: gave an elbow to to my girlfriend likes that Kato Kalen.

984
00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:21,680
Speaker 1: It's freaking Kato Kalin was there. I don't know how

985
00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:24,399
Speaker 1: we got on this track. How do we we could

986
00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:28,160
Speaker 1: blame me last week's pole results? I right, I went

987
00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:30,359
Speaker 1: on the social media thing, and then I brought up

988
00:48:30,840 --> 00:48:33,680
Speaker 1: the biggest sports curse we We asked it was either

989
00:48:33,719 --> 00:48:36,440
Speaker 1: the Drake curse, s like coverage drinks Madden covert to

990
00:48:36,600 --> 00:48:39,680
Speaker 1: that little be the basement. First I voted for Madden's

991
00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:45,920
Speaker 1: is the Drake cur percent Drake Urse seven percent Madden

992
00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:51,040
Speaker 1: covers nine team team just I mean we put it out.

993
00:48:51,080 --> 00:48:53,359
Speaker 1: The series hadn't ended when we first put the pole out.

994
00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:56,439
Speaker 1: And also, I mean, Drake, let's just face it, Drake's

995
00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:59,400
Speaker 1: a joke. I mean, he's always funny. He's always like

996
00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:02,680
Speaker 1: supported like Kentucky, every Kentucky, that's what makes you great.

997
00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:05,560
Speaker 1: He he likes every team. Where's jerseys from every team

998
00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:08,799
Speaker 1: and every good. He acted like someone put a video.

999
00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:10,839
Speaker 1: It's so funny done put a video on Twitter of

1000
00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:12,960
Speaker 1: of they put him in like NBA two K and

1001
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:14,839
Speaker 1: like what was going through Drake's mind in game six?

1002
00:49:14,880 --> 00:49:16,640
Speaker 1: Name was him like crossing up steph Curry and like

1003
00:49:16,680 --> 00:49:19,120
Speaker 1: dunking on like plans. It's just like a funny, like

1004
00:49:19,160 --> 00:49:20,919
Speaker 1: he literally thought he was on the court. I find

1005
00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:23,319
Speaker 1: that absolutely, Histerica. No, No, the mad and Curse was

1006
00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:26,800
Speaker 1: the right pick there. The Madden curse had some legs

1007
00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:29,320
Speaker 1: it was recencly biased. So so again that's exactly what

1008
00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:31,000
Speaker 1: it was. So the best Hard Knocks season. You can

1009
00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:36,960
Speaker 1: vote Jets, Browneen, Texans, Bucks seen right in any votes

1010
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:39,279
Speaker 1: that you have to the NFL podcast handle or to

1011
00:49:39,520 --> 00:49:41,680
Speaker 1: us individually. So there you go. All right, that's it,

1012
00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:44,480
Speaker 1: we are done. It's always appreciate your listening, you know

1013
00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:46,640
Speaker 1: the drill. Tell two friends to tell two friends rate review.

1014
00:49:46,680 --> 00:49:49,640
Speaker 1: And remember if someone says your secret safe with him,

1015
00:49:49,680 --> 00:50:02,400
Speaker 1: it's probably because they weren't listening. We'll see you next week. WoT,
