24
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 3: do the whole layover thing. I did. Look, I know

25
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 3: it's not Florio's film festival right now, but I did

26
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 3: rewatch Pulp Fiction on the flight last night. It's as

27
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 3: amazing as ever, still holds.

28
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:29,360

39
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 1: I think Rain is going to most poned the things

40
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 1: until we're gonna We're to do it a little bit.

41
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 3: So anyway, there you go.

42
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 2: We got stuff to talk about today. Maybe not as

43
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:07,600
Speaker 2: busy as.

44
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:10,000
Speaker 1: It has been in the past, but we got some

45
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 1: news headlines, we'll talk some hype trainer spoke screen, and

46
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 1: then we'll kind of dive into some positional rankings, not

47
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 1: so much players within positions, but the position groups as

48
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 1: a whole. Lancerline did an interesting column about that that

49
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 1: you can find over at NFL dot com as he

50
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:28,639
Speaker 1: sort of ranked the position groups in this year's draft,

51
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 1: and I just thought to be interesting for us to

52
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,240
Speaker 1: kind of dive into the position groups in fantasy as

53
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 1: a whole and see which ones are the strongest as

54
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 1: of this moment. Always subject to change, but let's start

55
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 1: with a few news headlines. Starting in Cleveland, Nick Chubb

56
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 1: reportedly will begin load running as they say in April.

57
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,800
Speaker 1: Of course, we didn't see Chubb for most of the season.

58
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 1: Suffered a really awful knee injury early in the year

59
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,520
Speaker 1: and missed the remainder of the season.

60
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 2: This is a guy who the.

61
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:05,120
Speaker 1: Phrase best pure running back in the NFL was starting

62
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 1: to become his full given name considering the way people

63
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 1: talked about him at some point last year. But here

64
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 1: it is coming off a major knee injury in an

65
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,800
Speaker 1: offense Floyda that seems to have transformed itself.

66
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 2: Right. They go out and they get Jerry Judy. They're

67
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:18,919
Speaker 2: hoping that.

68
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson finally turns into the quarterback that they backed

69
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:23,400
Speaker 1: up the Brinks truck for.

70
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,080
Speaker 2: What are your expectations for Nick Chubb in twenty twenty four.

71
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,359
Speaker 3: I'm kind of the mindset that anything that he gives

72
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 3: us is it should be appreciated. And like, I don't

73
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 3: know when or if we will see Nick Chubb because

74
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 3: that knee injury was so severe that they broadcast immediately

75
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 3: was like, we're not replaying this, and it wasn't the

76
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,119
Speaker 3: first time he's hurt that knee. That was his big

77
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 3: concern coming out of college. So when we did our

78
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,840
Speaker 3: mock draft earlier in the month, he went in the

79
00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 3: third round. Still, if he's not ready in the summer,

80
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 3: obviously he'll fall a bit. But I'm kind of of

81
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 3: the mindset that, like, I'll root for him. He's a

82
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 3: great human all of that. I think football is more

83
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 3: fun when Nick Chubb is good, and if he's good

84
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 3: on someone else's team, I can still enjoy that. For

85
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 3: fantasy purposes, I probably will not draft Nick Chubb just

86
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 3: because I think it's too volatile. And I think the

87
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 3: fact that they brought in Deance Foreman, that they brought

88
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 3: in Nahem heines. I know those are more backup running backs,

89
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 3: but I think it kind of shows that, like they

90
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:31,280
Speaker 3: even the Browns are like, yeah, we need some insurance

91
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 3: here in case Chubb one isn't ready to go at

92
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 3: the start of the year or whatever. But two also

93
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 3: like what if he can't get back to being at

94
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 3: least right away to that twenty plus week guy. So

95
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 3: I think I think his name is going to push

96
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 3: him on boards a little bit, but I'll probably let

97
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 3: other people draft him.

98
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:51,919
Speaker 2: I'm probably with you.

99
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 1: I'm looking right now at underdog and he's at the

100
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 1: moment the RB twenty four kind of looking at like

101
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 1: an eighth three ADP for him.

102
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:03,480
Speaker 2: Right now.

103
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,359
Speaker 1: He's going between in terms of running backs, going between

104
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,279
Speaker 1: Najee Harris and Jalen Warren. So he's it's a Brown

105
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 1: sandwich between two Steelers, which you know, is I guess

106
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,839
Speaker 1: kind of interesting on its own. Even that sort of

107
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 1: feels optimistic, But I guess if you're drafting him at

108
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 1: that spot, you are looking at him as maybe a

109
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:25,160
Speaker 1: third running back. So the pressure for him for you

110
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,480
Speaker 1: on your fantasy roster to produce is not nearly as great.

111
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 1: But I'm kind of with you that I think it's

112
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 1: I don't know how much we get out of Nick

113
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:37,040
Speaker 1: Chubb this year, you know, And we're still waiting to

114
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,040
Speaker 1: see if he is back and how ready he will

115
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:42,719
Speaker 1: be potentially for week one. I mean, it's it's almost

116
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 1: April and he is just starting kind of running and

117
00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 1: kind of getting back into shape, so it may be

118
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:51,719
Speaker 1: a while before we see him. And as you mentioned,

119
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:55,000
Speaker 1: Deonte Foreman being there, the changes that sort of signal

120
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,040
Speaker 1: they might want to throw the football a little bit more.

121
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:01,000
Speaker 1: Just the deck seems stacked against Chubb, at least in

122
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,280
Speaker 1: the short term. And look, I remember there was talk

123
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,039
Speaker 1: that they might get rid of him, they might move

124
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:10,839
Speaker 1: on from him, you know, a while ago. That seems

125
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 1: to have sort of quieted down recently. But there's still

126
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 1: no guarantee that the Browns don't try to make a

127
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 1: move regarding Nick Chubb. So we'll see how that works out.

128
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:24,920
Speaker 1: In New York, Giants owner John Merra gives his support

129
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:29,159
Speaker 1: for drafting a quarterback high. He basically says he's going

130
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 1: to trust his head coach he's going to trust his

131
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 1: general manager and if they feel like drafting a quarterback

132
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 1: at six.

133
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 2: Is the way to go.

134
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 1: In fact, he quote, if they fall in love with

135
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 1: the quarterback and believe that it's worth pick number six

136
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 1: or moving up, I certainly would support that. That to

137
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:51,640
Speaker 1: me struck me as interesting, Mike, because it just seemed

138
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,640
Speaker 1: like a week ago, maybe even less than that, that

139
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,840
Speaker 1: they were still saying that they believe in Daniel Jones

140
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,480
Speaker 1: and that what he did in twenty twenty two it

141
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 1: wasn't a fluke, that it was the start of something big.

142
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:05,839
Speaker 2: But they also bring in Drew Locke.

143
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 1: Now they're talking about, hey man, if a quarterback is

144
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 1: there that we like, let's go get him. You know,

145
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 1: actions sort of speak louder than words. And I don't

146
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 1: know about you, but these actions suggest to me that

147
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 1: they don't really believe in Daniel Jones.

148
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 2: In New York.

149
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:23,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, everything we've heard since Daniel Jones kind

150
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 3: of got hurt was like that the Giants have buyers remorse.

151
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 3: The thing is that contract for this year at least

152
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 3: they can't get out of it. So that's why I

153
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:34,840
Speaker 3: keep being of the mindset that if Daniel Jones is

154
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 3: ready week one, and if it's not week one, whenever

155
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 3: he is ready, he is going to be their starter

156
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 3: because they have to give him a chance, right like

157
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 3: after what they invested in him two years ago, I think,

158
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,120
Speaker 3: or last offseason it was the need they can't pull

159
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 3: the plug already. I think if you give him another

160
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:56,760
Speaker 3: shot and he continues to struggle, then you could say, look,

161
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 3: it hasn't worked out. We're gonna move on. We're gonna

162
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 3: play Drew or whatever. As for them drafting a quarterback,

163
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 3: I think if they fell in love with one, they could,

164
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 3: But right now it seems pretty set in stone that

165
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 3: the top three picks are going to be quarterbacks, and

166
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 3: every mock has it being Kleb, Jayden Daniels, Drake May,

167
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 3: and then every mock has the Vikings trading up to

168
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 3: jump ahead of the Giants to get JJ McCarthy. So

169
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 3: you're talking if that happens, the Giants are not taking

170
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 3: Michael Pennix Junior or Bo Nicks.

171
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 2: And six overall.

172
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 3: So I think this is a smoke screen. I think

173
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 3: the Giants know that the Vikings, the Broncos, the Raiders

174
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,600
Speaker 3: teams like that are all in play to take a quarterback.

175
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 3: So they're putting out this smoke screen to be like,

176
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,720
Speaker 3: jump ahead of us, take a quarterback, and then we

177
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:52,280
Speaker 3: will get Malik Neighbors or Marvin Harrison Junior, or whichever

178
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 3: Roma dunsay, if that's who they like, whichever stud wide

179
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 3: receiver they want, they'll have their pick between probably two

180
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 3: of them at six. So I think it's a little

181
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 3: bit of that. I think they're putting out some smoke.

182
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,320
Speaker 3: I think maybe if JJ fell, they did consider it,

183
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 3: but it doesn't seem like that's going to happen right now.

184
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 2: What is it?

185
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 1: I literally just came up with this as you were talking. Right,

186
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 1: if we're all agreed that the first three picks are

187
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 1: going to be quarterbacks, you know, you got the Cardinals

188
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 1: at four, they're not taking a quarterback. You got the

189
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 1: Chargers at five, they're not taking a quarterback.

190
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 3: Then you got the Giants at six.

191
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 1: Let's say New York does sort of like one of

192
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 1: these quarterbacks, whether it's a Pinnix or a bon Nix

193
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 1: or somebody like that, right, and maybe they're not necessarily

194
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 1: in love with JJ McCarthy. Would it make sense for

195
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:40,320
Speaker 1: them to trade back with the Vikings the Vikings are

196
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,840
Speaker 1: at eleven and twenty three, maybe move back to that

197
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:46,320
Speaker 1: eleven spot. The Vikings could come up and get McCarthy

198
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:49,360
Speaker 1: at six, the Giants could go back and if they

199
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,680
Speaker 1: wanted Knicks or Pinnix, they could do that at eleven.

200
00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:56,680
Speaker 1: Still feels a touch early, but not crazy early for

201
00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: either one of those guys. Would that make sense for

202
00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 1: them offense?

203
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:05,959
Speaker 3: It would, although if I'm the Giants no offense to

204
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,079
Speaker 3: Michael Pennocks junior or Bo Nicks, I don't want to

205
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 3: use the eleventh pick on the fifth or sixth best

206
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 3: quarterback in this draft class. Yeah, so I would rather

207
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 3: adding neighbors or a Donsday whoever they can get and

208
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:24,439
Speaker 3: be like, we're we are giving Daniel Jones an actual

209
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 3: chance because you look at the weapons that Daniel Jones

210
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 3: has been throwing to in his NFL career, they're pretty subpar.

211
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 3: I know they had to say home Markley and that

212
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:36,080
Speaker 3: helped open up running lanes and stuff for Daniel Jones.

213
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 3: But like Kenny Galladay, your wide receiver one and last

214
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,839
Speaker 3: year it was a who's who of wide receiver threes

215
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 3: and fours as their groups. So at least if you

216
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,120
Speaker 3: get a wide receiver early on, you could say you

217
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 3: gave Daniel Jones some some firepower. But yeah, that's just me.

218
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 3: If if I was at eleven, I wouldn't want to

219
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:58,000
Speaker 3: be the fifth or sixth quarterback taking team taking one.

220
00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,680
Speaker 3: But I am. The more I keep thinking about it

221
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:02,719
Speaker 3: and stuff, and you could call me crazy, I think

222
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,439
Speaker 3: it's very possible we see six first round quarterbacks.

223
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 1: That is not totally crazy, right, I mean, because it

224
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,839
Speaker 1: seems like we're already a lock for four within the

225
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 1: first you know, seven or eight picks potentially, So the

226
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 1: idea that we could get a couple more that Pinnix

227
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:20,960
Speaker 1: and Knicks go in and round it out and make

228
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 1: it six. I don't think that's a ridiculous statement at

229
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 1: all for this draft as of this moment right without

230
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 1: knowing who the Giants draft in the first round, any

231
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 1: interest in anybody in this offense this year?

232
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,720
Speaker 3: No, maybe Jalen Hyatt and like best Ball because I

233
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,640
Speaker 3: still think he can be a good deep threat in

234
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 3: this league. But like, we don't know if Daniel Jones

235
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:43,880
Speaker 3: is going to be ready to start the year. We

236
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 3: don't know if Darren Waller is retiring or not. No

237
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,960
Speaker 3: offense to Devin Singletary. He's a huge downgrade from Saquon Barkley.

238
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,560
Speaker 3: The receivers are just man like. I could see like

239
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:58,079
Speaker 3: Wandell Robinson being like a value in PPR leagues, kind

240
00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 3: of like what Hunter Renfro was a few years ago.

241
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 3: But I'm not going to go out of like go

242
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:06,040
Speaker 3: into my drafts like I need Wandelle Robinson. So yeah,

243
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,280
Speaker 3: there's there's pieces that maybe I would take, but no

244
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:11,600
Speaker 3: one that like last year was all about Darren Waller,

245
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:13,720
Speaker 3: There's gonna be no one like that for the Giants

246
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 3: for me this year.

247
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,559
Speaker 1: Well, and we're still waiting to see what Darren Waller's

248
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,560
Speaker 1: decision is. Does he retire, does he come back to

249
00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:20,320
Speaker 1: play another year.

250
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,880
Speaker 2: We're all still kind of waiting on that one.

251
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:25,160
Speaker 1: So I mean, I'm with you that I think we're

252
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,400
Speaker 1: gonna struggle, especially if Waller retires. I don't know that

253
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:31,680
Speaker 1: we're going to see any Giants players drafted before what

254
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:33,720
Speaker 1: round ten eleven.

255
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 2: Yes, I just don't see it happening at this point.

256
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:40,720
Speaker 3: Devin Scary probably first one.

257
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:42,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, single time is probably the first one off the board.

258
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:45,040
Speaker 1: So maybe maybe he sneaks in somewhere in the top

259
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:48,840
Speaker 1: ten rounds maybe, but that's it, that really is it.

260
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 2: From New New York to New England.

261
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 1: Robert Kraft wants the Patriots to add quote a top

262
00:12:54,000 --> 00:13:00,600
Speaker 1: rate young quarterback. Put that next to giondmeos state where

263
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 1: he says Jacoby Brissett quote could absolutely be our starter

264
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:09,080
Speaker 1: this year. You know, right now the Patriots sit at three.

265
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,079
Speaker 1: I know a lot of mock drafts have them taking

266
00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 1: whoever's left between Jade and Daniels and Drake May.

267
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 2: There are still a lot of holes in this offense.

268
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:22,840
Speaker 1: Would you have any interest in a quarterback that lands

269
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:23,680
Speaker 1: in New England?

270
00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:27,480
Speaker 3: It was Jade and Daniels. Yes, but that's more because

271
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 3: of what he can do as a runner and the

272
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 3: fact that I think he can run for like seven

273
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:35,960
Speaker 3: to eight hundred yards as a rookie. That would have

274
00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 3: me interested in him. But you would get him as

275
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,840
Speaker 3: like a QB two, probably a late QB two if

276
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:45,080
Speaker 3: he went to New England. Their weapon, like them and

277
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,200
Speaker 3: the Giants are the pointing spider Man gift when it

278
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 3: comes to worst weapons in the NFL. Right now, their

279
00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 3: receiving court is kJ Osborne, Jalen Rager, Kendrick Bourne, Damario Douglas, juju.

280
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,319
Speaker 3: It's like they just like everyone who's this point of

281
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 3: the last couple of years, they just wrangled him up

282
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:07,079
Speaker 3: and signed him. Rimandre I'm interested in, But yeah, it

283
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,280
Speaker 3: would only be Jaden Daniels because I think Drake may

284
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:12,560
Speaker 3: would have some growing pains there, especially with those receivers.

285
00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:15,679
Speaker 3: He's more of a pocket passer than than Daniels is,

286
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 3: even though he's a good one as well. So yeah,

287
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 3: it would purely be Daniels because of the rushing upside.

288
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 3: But uh, for Jared Mayo, I do think if if

289
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 3: the Patriots were just interested in winning games this year

290
00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:30,080
Speaker 3: and not long term, there's an easy argument that Jacoby

291
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,480
Speaker 3: Brissette is better than any of these rookies.

292
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 1: He's at least the guy that The thing about Jacoby

293
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 1: Brissett is he's not going to sink the ship right

294
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 1: like he might not necessarily, you know, lead you consistently

295
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:45,640
Speaker 1: to victory. He's not the guy that's gonna put the

296
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 1: team on his back and carry you to wins. But

297
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:51,440
Speaker 1: we've seen enough from Brissett to know he's also not

298
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:54,440
Speaker 1: going to be the guy that is, you know, he's

299
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:57,119
Speaker 1: not going to be the reason that things.

300
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:57,760
Speaker 3: Are bad for you.

301
00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,520
Speaker 1: He's going to do enough to kind of hold everything together,

302
00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 1: to keep the offense competent, to keep the line moving.

303
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 1: So if that's what they want, you know, look, Brissette

304
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 1: is that kind of the definition of a bridge quarterback.

305
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:11,640
Speaker 1: If that's what they want, until they find the guy,

306
00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 1: then Brissett's their guy. If they decide they just want

307
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:18,000
Speaker 1: to completely reboot this, then I think they draft somebody.

308
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:21,800
Speaker 1: I also think this is a weird spot because the

309
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:25,760
Speaker 1: Patriots haven't really been here in literally two decades.

310
00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:26,360
Speaker 3: You know.

311
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 1: They went twenty years where they had their franchise quarterback.

312
00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 1: It wasn't a question. They didn't have to address it,

313
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 1: you know, And now they're seeing how a lot of

314
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:40,600
Speaker 1: other teams live, and then they got to figure out

315
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 1: what the best course of action is there.

316
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:43,400
Speaker 3: You know.

317
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:47,160
Speaker 1: Again, your point to jayde and Daniel sort of being

318
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 1: the guy because of his rushing ability, I think is

319
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:50,400
Speaker 1: the only one that kind of makes sense. I think

320
00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 1: anybody else that's there, it's going to be a hard

321
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 1: pass as at least in twenty twenty four. Last bit

322
00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 1: of news, and normally I don't know that I would

323
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:02,000
Speaker 1: have thrown this in, but this sort of goes hand

324
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 1: in hand with some of the rules changes that were

325
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 1: announced on Tuesday. The Steelers signed Cordero Patterson, so he

326
00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:13,400
Speaker 1: is reunited with Arthur Smith in Pittsburgh after the two

327
00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:16,680
Speaker 1: of them were able to actually have some success a

328
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 1: little bit in Atlanta. But this sort of works out

329
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 1: with the new kickoff rules where there's a new format

330
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:27,440
Speaker 1: for it. The kickoff itself still comes from with the thirty,

331
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:31,360
Speaker 1: but the gunners to you know, the kick return team,

332
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:35,400
Speaker 1: they line up on the opposing team's forty yard line.

333
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 1: There's a smaller gap between the kick coverage team and

334
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 1: the kick return team. It's just a it's a format

335
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 1: that was tried in the XFL that the NFL is adopting.

336
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:48,200
Speaker 2: Cordella Patterson.

337
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 1: Say what you want about him as a wide receiver

338
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 1: or a running back, the one thing we know Florio

339
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 1: is that he can return kicks. Does this make you

340
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 1: more interested in the Steelers defense and special teams now

341
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:04,400
Speaker 1: with the new kickoff rules a bit?

342
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 3: And I do think we'll get well, obviously gonna get

343
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 3: a lot more kick returns. I think we'll get more

344
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:13,040
Speaker 3: kick return touchdowns. I will say I'm not gonna go

345
00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:15,879
Speaker 3: into like fantasy drafts, being like this team has a

346
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:19,159
Speaker 3: good return man, so I'm taking their defense. Maybe that

347
00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,560
Speaker 3: could turn out to be the strategy, and I'll adjustice

348
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:25,359
Speaker 3: the season goes on. But a team like Pittsburgh where

349
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:28,200
Speaker 3: they already have a good defense, where we know they

350
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 3: have someone that could rack up sacks in TJ. Watt,

351
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:34,920
Speaker 3: they have playmakers like Fitzpatrick who could force turnover. That's

352
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:37,600
Speaker 3: what you look forward to defense, sacks and turnovers because

353
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:41,200
Speaker 3: points allowed all of that. You're not gonna really score

354
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,080
Speaker 3: a bunch of fantasy points with that. You need to

355
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:46,680
Speaker 3: generate turnovers and pressure and sacks. But now if you

356
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,280
Speaker 3: add a defense like that with a good return man

357
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:53,119
Speaker 3: who could what like three four times maybe in this

358
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:56,680
Speaker 3: season return a kick like that, that adds a I

359
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:58,160
Speaker 3: don't want to say more than that because I think

360
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 3: that might be getting kind of crazy, but yeah, if

361
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,679
Speaker 3: he returns a few kicks for a touchdown, that only

362
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 3: adds more value to this team. So, uh yeah, I

363
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 3: didn't think of that when I first saw the kick rules,

364
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:12,960
Speaker 3: but then talking about it in Slacks today with you

365
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:15,520
Speaker 3: and Laqwan and Hype them, I was like, oh, yeah,

366
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,119
Speaker 3: like that that is something that we need to factor

367
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 3: in now. With these defenses it is.

368
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:22,520
Speaker 1: And I saw a lot of really smart people, a

369
00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:25,560
Speaker 1: lot of analytics people trying to figure out projections and

370
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,920
Speaker 1: that sort of thing about what these these kickoff rules

371
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:32,200
Speaker 1: are going to mean and how that potentially could impact things.

372
00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:33,119
Speaker 3: You know.

373
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:35,400
Speaker 2: I feel like a lot of times when we.

374
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:39,480
Speaker 1: Talk about you know, DSTs, defense and special teams and fantasy,

375
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:42,719
Speaker 1: that we sort of ignore the st part of it.

376
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:45,720
Speaker 1: And I think, I think in part because the kickoff

377
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 1: has for all into the purpose has kind of been

378
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,480
Speaker 1: taken out of play in the last few years, and

379
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:54,280
Speaker 1: punt returns are just it's really really hard to return

380
00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:55,200
Speaker 1: punts for touchdowns.

381
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:55,919
Speaker 2: This doesn't happen.

382
00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,240
Speaker 1: If this turns out that we start seeing more returns

383
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 1: and we start see more return touchdowns, I think we're

384
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:05,679
Speaker 1: gonna start factoring that in to our fantasy calculations a

385
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:08,359
Speaker 1: little bit more. And so look at the Steelers went

386
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:10,119
Speaker 1: out and they got a guy who is Hall of

387
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:14,200
Speaker 1: Fame level when it comes to kick returns in Cordero Patterson,

388
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:15,920
Speaker 1: and I expect they're going to try to use him

389
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 1: in that regard. But the other thing that I did

390
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:22,440
Speaker 1: think about Florio is that he's going and he's reuniting

391
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:28,400
Speaker 1: with Arthur Smith in Pittsburgh. Does Arthur Smith pull some Shenanigans,

392
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 1: Like if you've got Najee Harris and Jalen Warren, are

393
00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:35,119
Speaker 1: you going to be frustrated when Cordero Patterson gets the

394
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:37,440
Speaker 1: end around at the three yard line trying to score

395
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 1: a touchdown.

396
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:42,679
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, and yes he is going to play. I'm

397
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:44,119
Speaker 3: sure they're gonna come out. We're gonna hear it in

398
00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 3: the summer. He's playing the joker role, just like he

399
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:50,920
Speaker 3: did last year. And anyone who had Bijon in fantasy

400
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:53,680
Speaker 3: could tell you the joker role was pretty much the

401
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:55,520
Speaker 3: role of it was to take enough work away to

402
00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:59,320
Speaker 3: make us very frustrated with Bejeon Robinson. And remember how

403
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 3: look Nase or Warren. Neither one of them are even

404
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 3: in the same stratosphere as talented and explosive as Bjeon Robinson.

405
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,639
Speaker 3: Is no disrespect to those two. Bijon is just one

406
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 3: of the best in the league. And this guy used

407
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 3: three running backs knowing he had Bijon there after taking

408
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,840
Speaker 3: him on a top ten pick. I want nothing to

409
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:21,560
Speaker 3: do with this Steelers backfield. I've already seen people on

410
00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:23,720
Speaker 3: Twitter saying like they're gonna run the ball so much

411
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 3: this year. I want nause or one. I don't think

412
00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,000
Speaker 3: that Warren is gonna get nearly as many passes from

413
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:33,199
Speaker 3: russell Or fields as he did from Kenny Pickett. But

414
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 3: I want nothing to do with this backfield. It's gonna

415
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 3: be messy week to week. I figure they may finish

416
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:41,119
Speaker 3: like one of them, may finish as a low end

417
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 3: RB two, but you know how it's gonna go. Each week,

418
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,960
Speaker 3: They're probably gonna give you an average of an RB

419
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:49,280
Speaker 3: three production. I want nothing to do with it.

420
00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:51,320
Speaker 1: I mean, I think, for all the talk of the

421
00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:53,360
Speaker 1: Steeler's gonna run the ball ball a whole lot more

422
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:58,359
Speaker 1: this year, which could be true, We've had enough of

423
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:02,520
Speaker 1: Arthur Smith to sot to know that that Shenanigans are coming.

424
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:03,280
Speaker 3: They just are.

425
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:03,919
Speaker 2: It's just kind of.

426
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,240
Speaker 1: How the only time he didn't do that was Tennessee,

427
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:08,159
Speaker 1: and that's because he had Derreck Henry and it was

428
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:11,520
Speaker 1: just simple, just turn the turnaround and hand the ball

429
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:13,879
Speaker 1: to Derrick Henry and get out of his way.

430
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:15,440
Speaker 2: Now he's got a.

431
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,320
Speaker 1: Few more things to play with, and it just feels

432
00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:20,880
Speaker 1: like we're going to be back in the same situation

433
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:23,960
Speaker 1: we were the last couple of years where we're frustrated when

434
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:28,320
Speaker 1: it just we see nonsensical things, especially down near the

435
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 1: goal line, and you know, Cordero Patterson's going to rise

436
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:34,600
Speaker 1: up and try to throw a pass to somebody who.

437
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 2: Knows, and we're all gonna be upset. So just just

438
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 2: prepare yourself for that.

439
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:41,600
Speaker 3: Oh little bit of breaking news. Not big, but Josh

440
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:43,400
Speaker 3: Reynolds two year deal with the Broncos.

441
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:47,399
Speaker 2: Oh all right, so Denver adding a pass catcher.

442
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,200
Speaker 1: I don't know that this is actually a replacement for

443
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:56,359
Speaker 1: Jerry Judy, but yeah, so Josh Reynolds landing there in Denver.

444
00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 2: We wait to see who will be throwing him the football.

445
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 2: That is still sort of up in the air, but

446
00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:02,360
Speaker 2: we'll find out.

447
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 1: I can take a break, come back and play a

448
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:07,600
Speaker 1: little hype train or smoke screen. The owner's meetings happening

449
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 1: right now. Some of the coaches talking, and we'll kind

450
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:11,800
Speaker 1: of dive into some of their statements and figure out

451
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:14,040
Speaker 1: whether or not they are blowing a smoke. That's coming

452
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:22,400
Speaker 1: up next on the NFL Fantasy Football Podcast. All right,

453
00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:26,879
Speaker 1: so coaches, they are talking, they have been talking, and

454
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 1: their statements have been put out into the ether. So

455
00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:31,359
Speaker 1: we'll dive into a few of them and see whether

456
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:33,359
Speaker 1: or not we're buying in as we play another round

457
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:36,400
Speaker 1: of hype train or smoke screen. So I got four

458
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:41,359
Speaker 1: statements here made by coaches and or general managers. The

459
00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:47,520
Speaker 1: first one, the Green Bay Packers are saying that Jay

460
00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,360
Speaker 1: will use Josh Jacobs as a pass catcher out of

461
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 1: the backfield. It's a thing that we sort of wanted

462
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,280
Speaker 1: for him with the Raiders and it kind of happened,

463
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:59,960
Speaker 1: but not really. I mean, Mike, We've seen the Packers

464
00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:03,840
Speaker 1: use Aaron Jones as a pass catcher very effectively during

465
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,600
Speaker 1: his time there. So when you hear this about Josh

466
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,160
Speaker 1: Jacobs hype Trainer smoke screen.

467
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:14,480
Speaker 3: I think this is hype train. We've seen Jacobs used

468
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:17,200
Speaker 3: in the passing game in the past, like two years

469
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,880
Speaker 3: ago when he had that big breakout season, sixty four targets,

470
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:23,240
Speaker 3: fifty three catches, four hundred receiving yards. Fun fact, he

471
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:26,399
Speaker 3: has never had a receiving touchdown in his NFL career,

472
00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:30,720
Speaker 3: which is a little wild. But when they chose Josh

473
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 3: Jacobs over Aaron Jones, my thinking was they want to

474
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 3: become a little bit less predictable, not that it was

475
00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:39,760
Speaker 3: as simple as like Aaron Jones is on the field,

476
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:42,399
Speaker 3: we're throwing AJ Dillons on the field, we're running, but

477
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,400
Speaker 3: AJ Dillon coming on the field kind of tips your hand.

478
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:49,080
Speaker 3: And Aaron Jones they would always limit him to around

479
00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:52,760
Speaker 3: two hundred touches or less. I think Josh Jacobs could

480
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:55,760
Speaker 3: be both like like those two kind of combined. Where

481
00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:58,879
Speaker 3: he's playing all three downs, you're using him in the

482
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:01,480
Speaker 3: passing game, giving him the bulk of the carriers on

483
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:03,280
Speaker 3: the ground and near the goal on you don't need

484
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:05,159
Speaker 3: as much of a committee. And I know a lot

485
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:09,639
Speaker 3: of people always say the Packers and Lafleur love running

486
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,360
Speaker 3: a committee. Well they did when they had Aaron Jones.

487
00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:17,640
Speaker 3: They had under this head coach a running back besides

488
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:19,720
Speaker 3: Aaron Jones, and it was Jamal Williams, and then it

489
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 3: became AJ Dillon. I think they kind of said, I

490
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:25,080
Speaker 3: don't want to go that two route, the two running

491
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 3: back route all the time. Where again, I think it

492
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:29,320
Speaker 3: makes it a little bit easier to plan based on

493
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:31,560
Speaker 3: the packages and when when those running backs come in,

494
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,479
Speaker 3: Now you just leave Josh Jacobs out there, and they're like,

495
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 3: all right, you don't know if we're gonna throw right

496
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,320
Speaker 3: now because we can get him involved in the passing

497
00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:41,480
Speaker 3: game and we know he can pass protect well.

498
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:43,840
Speaker 1: And I think some of it is Look, AJ Dillon

499
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:46,399
Speaker 1: just hasn't been the player that they thought he was

500
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:48,639
Speaker 1: going to be. I mean they they weren't expecting him

501
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:50,960
Speaker 1: to come back in free agency this year, and he

502
00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,520
Speaker 1: signed for very, very little money. So I think they

503
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,199
Speaker 1: were thrilled, certainly at that price point to get him

504
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:59,640
Speaker 1: back and have him back on the roster. Yeah, Aaron

505
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:01,720
Speaker 1: Jones was frustrating for a lot of his fantasy types

506
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:03,600
Speaker 1: because we always wanted him to get more of a

507
00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,359
Speaker 1: workhorse role and it never happened because first it was

508
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:08,400
Speaker 1: Jamal Williams and it was AJ Dillon. But I think

509
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 1: seeing who Dylan is, I think the Packers really want

510
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:12,879
Speaker 1: to go with a guy that they can trust to

511
00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,240
Speaker 1: carry a workload. And Josh Shake was being a little

512
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 1: bit younger en showing that he can be a workhorse.

513
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:18,800
Speaker 2: I think fits that bill.

514
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 1: So I'm with you. I think I think this is

515
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:22,560
Speaker 1: really gonna happen. I think he's gonna get some targets. Now,

516
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:25,760
Speaker 1: you know, the type of targets I think remains to

517
00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:28,159
Speaker 1: be seen. I don't think he's going to be, you know,

518
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,640
Speaker 1: a Christian McCaffrey type where he's sort of running these

519
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:33,840
Speaker 1: downfield routes. I think it's gonna be a lot of screens,

520
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 1: a lot of dumpoffs or that sort of thing. But

521
00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:39,200
Speaker 1: you know, at this point, considering what his history wasn't

522
00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,840
Speaker 1: in Vegas or with the Raiders, I will take any

523
00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:45,680
Speaker 1: targets anyway I can get them for Josh Jacobs.

524
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:46,240
Speaker 3: At this point.

525
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 1: Down in Tennessee, Brian Callahan says, Calvin Ridley will have

526
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:56,000
Speaker 1: quote a similar role to what Jamar Chase has in Cincinnati.

527
00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:59,639
Speaker 1: They paid Calvin Ridley a pretty good chunk of money.

528
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,280
Speaker 1: Pair him up with the DeAndre Hopkins down there in

529
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:05,159
Speaker 1: the Music city hype trainer smokescreen on this one.

530
00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:09,200
Speaker 3: I think Brian Callahan believes this in his heart of hearts.

531
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 3: I think I'm gonna say hype train. I think we

532
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,840
Speaker 3: similar role being the key word. I could see him

533
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:20,840
Speaker 3: playing that type of role, same role as a Jamar

534
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:23,960
Speaker 3: Chase play because he's the speed sir. DeAndre Hopkins isn't

535
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,560
Speaker 3: that anymore. Ridley is the fields better field stretcher. I

536
00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:29,880
Speaker 3: believe of the two, and we could see de Hop

537
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:33,840
Speaker 3: kind of operate as T Higgins, I think, but you're

538
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:36,400
Speaker 3: not gonna get Jamar. Don't think the role will lead

539
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:38,880
Speaker 3: to production. And that's the big thing. You're not gonna

540
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:42,399
Speaker 3: get Jamar Chase production out of Calvin Ridley. If you

541
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:45,560
Speaker 3: get seventy five percent of it, you are eighty percent

542
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:47,720
Speaker 3: of it. You should be happy one. Not only is

543
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:52,440
Speaker 3: Ridley not as good as Jamar Chase, will Levis is

544
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 3: nowhere close to Joe Burrow level goods. So I think

545
00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:59,200
Speaker 3: the usage or the way that they line up in

546
00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:02,240
Speaker 3: the routes they run could be similar, but that's probably

547
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:02,840
Speaker 3: where it ends.

548
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:05,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, this was one I sort of treated this like

549
00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:07,720
Speaker 1: an SAT question where you actually have to read the

550
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 1: language answer the question right, because I think it is

551
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:13,600
Speaker 1: a hype train in that Yes, you will have a

552
00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:16,480
Speaker 1: similar role to Jamar Chase. I don't think that part

553
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:19,720
Speaker 1: is a smoke screen at all. If you were thinking

554
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 1: that he's going to produce the way Jamar Chase did

555
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:27,359
Speaker 1: or has or can, that part is a smoke screen

556
00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:31,280
Speaker 1: because they're just they're not the same player. So I

557
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:33,560
Speaker 1: do believe that Brian Callahan is going to try to

558
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:34,960
Speaker 1: use him in a similar fashion.

559
00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:35,840
Speaker 2: But I'm with you.

560
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:37,760
Speaker 1: I don't think the production is going to mirror it.

561
00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:39,879
Speaker 1: So yeah, this was very much one of those, like,

562
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 1: you know, really annoying, tricky, standardized test questions where you

563
00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:46,840
Speaker 1: have to actually read the language before you put down

564
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:51,800
Speaker 1: your answer. Kevin O'Connell, head coach of the Minnesota Vikings,

565
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 1: says Sam Donald's quote best football is ahead of him.

566
00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 1: You know how I feel about Sam Donald and all

567
00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 1: the USC guys, But how how are you feeling about

568
00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:03,959
Speaker 1: this versus in terms of hype train or smoke screen

569
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:05,679
Speaker 1: smoke screen.

570
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 3: And I think they're saying this because they are trying

571
00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:13,120
Speaker 3: to be like, look, we believe in Sam Donald. We're

572
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:15,600
Speaker 3: not going to trade up to get JJ McCarthy or

573
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:19,040
Speaker 3: trade may or whichever one doesn't go in the top three.

574
00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:22,480
Speaker 3: But yeah, they're going to take a quarterback in this

575
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:24,960
Speaker 3: year's draft. I think getting that second first round pick

576
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:27,880
Speaker 3: kind of let everyone in the NFL world know, like, yeah,

577
00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:30,600
Speaker 3: the Vikings are planning to make a move here and

578
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,920
Speaker 3: to jump into the top ten, top five. I would

579
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,879
Speaker 3: say to get a quarterback. And if you're doing that,

580
00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:39,520
Speaker 3: if you're giving up two first round picks to move

581
00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 3: up into the top five. Even if Sam Donald starts

582
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:47,280
Speaker 3: Week one, that quarterback that you draft, I believe by

583
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 3: October would be starting for the Minnesota Vikings. Now if

584
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:54,600
Speaker 3: they didn't trade for that pick and they actually did

585
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:58,160
Speaker 3: go with Sam Donald, I would believe this because he's

586
00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 3: never had any weapons anywhere to what he's dealing with

587
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:06,280
Speaker 3: in Minnesota. And we've seen Kevin O'Connell show that he

588
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:09,440
Speaker 3: is a very good, offensive minded head coach. He can

589
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:13,000
Speaker 3: elevate his quarterback plays, especially when they have their full

590
00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:15,440
Speaker 3: allotment of weapons. But yeah, I think this is just

591
00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:19,240
Speaker 3: a smoke screen to be like, we don't want JJ McCarthy,

592
00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 3: but everyone knows that it's not true.

593
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:24,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is one hundred percent smoke screen.

594
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 1: Look, I want the best for all the USC guys

595
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,560
Speaker 1: in the league, but I think we have seen who

596
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 1: Sam Donald is at this point in his career. I

597
00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:35,240
Speaker 1: think that the logic was, well, look look what he

598
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 1: did last year, and he was in the Kyle Shanahan

599
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:39,840
Speaker 1: offense and he was able to get some reps and

600
00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:40,240
Speaker 1: do this.

601
00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:42,360
Speaker 2: That's all fine and good.

602
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:46,320
Speaker 1: I don't know that that that year as the backup

603
00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:49,680
Speaker 1: in San Francisco suddenly makes Sam Donald a different player

604
00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:52,000
Speaker 1: than he has been through his entire career.

605
00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:53,680
Speaker 2: He will make some wowd.

606
00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 1: Throws, he will make some plays that just blow your mind,

607
00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:59,440
Speaker 1: and then he'll make some throws you're like, what were

608
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:02,360
Speaker 1: you looking at. Usually what happens is he makes some

609
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:05,080
Speaker 1: of those head scratching throws early, puts his team in

610
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:07,400
Speaker 1: a hole, and then in the second half he makes

611
00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:10,400
Speaker 1: some mind blowing plays and it either gets you close

612
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:14,200
Speaker 1: or maybe even sometimes comes back to win. But I

613
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:16,200
Speaker 1: don't know that that's going to be consistent enough. And

614
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:18,239
Speaker 1: to your point, I don't know that that's enough to

615
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:21,120
Speaker 1: prevent the Vikings from trying to move up and getting

616
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:24,560
Speaker 1: their quarterback of the future. Because even if Sam Donald's

617
00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 1: best days are ahead of him, he ain't it as

618
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:29,080
Speaker 1: the future in Minnesota.

619
00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:33,040
Speaker 3: He's just not. I keep seeing people be like, well,

620
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:35,520
Speaker 3: Gino did it two years ago in Baker last year,

621
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:38,320
Speaker 3: so that has nothing to do with Sam Donalds.

622
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:41,600
Speaker 1: Also, I mean those guys, yes, they had their best

623
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:45,920
Speaker 1: career seasons, they were still not guys that you're suddenly

624
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:48,800
Speaker 1: going to hit your wagon to long term and make

625
00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:52,440
Speaker 1: them your franchise quarterbacks. I mean, yes, Gino's twenty twenty

626
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 1: two was by far the best season of his career.

627
00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:58,440
Speaker 1: Baker season last year was probably the best season of

628
00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 1: his career. But these are guys that, in the scheme

629
00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:04,880
Speaker 1: of things, are still, for lack of a better term,

630
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,880
Speaker 1: mid Like. They're not just gonna suddenly look around and

631
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:10,640
Speaker 1: be like, Baker Mayfield is our franchise quarterback in Tampa

632
00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:12,560
Speaker 1: and we're gonna ride with him for the next five

633
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:13,440
Speaker 1: to seven years.

634
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:15,080
Speaker 2: It's just what it is.

635
00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 1: So even if Sam Darnold's best days are in front

636
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:21,640
Speaker 1: of him, his best at this point is probably still

637
00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 1: going to be mid. So I appreciate everybody's optimism. I

638
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:31,080
Speaker 1: hope that things are great for him in Minnesota, but

639
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,680
Speaker 1: at this point we sort of know who he is.

640
00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 1: Last one, Chargers general manager Joe Horritz says, Gus Edwards

641
00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:41,280
Speaker 1: is going to be or can be. I should say

642
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:46,800
Speaker 1: the quote Bell Cow of the backfield, Austin Eckler's gone,

643
00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:52,200
Speaker 1: Joshua Kelly has been n you know, they've tried several

644
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:54,880
Speaker 1: other guys. Isaiah Spiller was a name that came through.

645
00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:59,000
Speaker 2: There are we buying that the Chargers have bought.

646
00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:02,120
Speaker 3: A pass for the Gus, But I think this is

647
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 3: hype train ish. I think they're gonna draft a running

648
00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:10,360
Speaker 3: back of one hundred percent, maybe even more than one.

649
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:13,760
Speaker 3: Because I haven't dove into this running back class yet.

650
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:18,160
Speaker 3: I'm still working through receivers and pass catchers. But every

651
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:20,680
Speaker 3: thing that I have read up on it and stuff

652
00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:24,480
Speaker 3: says like there's five to six sometimes seven. People state

653
00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:26,800
Speaker 3: it's up to seven running backs that are all kind

654
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:29,160
Speaker 3: of in the same tier. So I wouldn't be surprised

655
00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:31,800
Speaker 3: if a lot of running backs go round three, round

656
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:34,680
Speaker 3: four and the Chargers are one of them trying to

657
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:37,520
Speaker 3: find their guy there. But I think Edwards will be

658
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:41,880
Speaker 3: heavily involved regardless of how the Chargers attack the draft,

659
00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:44,960
Speaker 3: because I could see him splitting time with a rookie.

660
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:48,560
Speaker 3: I do think he will be their short yard situation.

661
00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:51,200
Speaker 3: I think he'll be their goal line runner. And if

662
00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:54,640
Speaker 3: they're going to run as much as I believe with

663
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 3: Roman and Harbo there Harborough, I always say struggle saying

664
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:03,240
Speaker 3: his name, but I think they're gonna run a ton

665
00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 3: and he's the kind of runner that an NFL coach

666
00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:09,440
Speaker 3: falls in love with. He's not gonna give you these

667
00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:12,920
Speaker 3: sixty plus yard touchdown runs or anything like that, but

668
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:16,680
Speaker 3: he's gonna just get you a consistent four yards and

669
00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 3: NFL coaches love that, and he has the bursts to

670
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:21,640
Speaker 3: get you ten to fifteen. He can't get you much

671
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,640
Speaker 3: more than that on a carry, but he won't lose yards.

672
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:27,360
Speaker 3: And it's kind of what kept like Adrian Peterson and

673
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:29,240
Speaker 3: Frank Gore and those guys around when we were like,

674
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:32,840
Speaker 3: there's younger, more explosive, better options. Why do these coaches

675
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:35,400
Speaker 3: love them. It's because they don't lose yards and they

676
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:38,320
Speaker 3: do stuff like that. So I do think Gus could

677
00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 3: easily lead this team in touches, even though I think

678
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:42,400
Speaker 3: another back will be involved as well well.

679
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:45,480
Speaker 1: And I suspect that in signing him, bringing him in

680
00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:49,040
Speaker 1: looking at him in this offense, Jim Harbaugh probably did

681
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 1: his due diligence and called up his brother who coached

682
00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:55,160
Speaker 1: Gus Edwards for a number of years, and asked exactly

683
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:58,080
Speaker 1: what they were getting with this running back. But I

684
00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 1: think it's a little bit of a smokes because I

685
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:05,560
Speaker 1: do think they add somebody because again, Gus Edwards sort

686
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:07,720
Speaker 1: of like we're talking about, you know, with some of

687
00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:11,720
Speaker 1: these other veterans, you know, in that he's a nice piece.

688
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:14,120
Speaker 1: He can do what you want, but he's not going

689
00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:16,120
Speaker 1: to be your long term answer there. He's a guy

690
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:19,160
Speaker 1: that probably fills the bill for a year, maybe two,

691
00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:21,600
Speaker 1: but you're still going to be looking. And I think

692
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:23,799
Speaker 1: the Chargers have been sort of linked to drafting a

693
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:27,040
Speaker 1: running back. I don't see any running backs getting drafted

694
00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:32,319
Speaker 1: before late in day two. More likely day three is

695
00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:34,120
Speaker 1: when you see a lot of these guys come off

696
00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:36,400
Speaker 1: the board, but the Chargers have been sort of connected

697
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:39,400
Speaker 1: to them. A name I keep hearing is Marshaun Lloyd

698
00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:41,160
Speaker 1: from the USC, which I think would be a really

699
00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:42,040
Speaker 1: interesting fit there.

700
00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:44,279
Speaker 2: So I think what ends up happening is that this

701
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:47,040
Speaker 2: ends up being a two headed backfield at best.

702
00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:51,000
Speaker 1: If it gets bad, maybe three guys, which, let's cross

703
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:54,560
Speaker 1: our fingers, it doesn't get there. So I think saying

704
00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:57,680
Speaker 1: Edwards is the bell cow feels a little bit like

705
00:34:57,719 --> 00:34:59,920
Speaker 1: a smoke screen. I could see him being the leader,

706
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:01,520
Speaker 1: sort of the RB one if we got to put

707
00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:04,680
Speaker 1: a label on it. But Beltow feels feels like a

708
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 1: stretch right now. So yeah, there it is. I'm sure

709
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:11,759
Speaker 1: there'll be more things that get said in the next

710
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:13,440
Speaker 1: few weeks and months that we can play some high

711
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:16,040
Speaker 1: trainer smoke screen on a little bit left to do

712
00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:18,640
Speaker 1: here on a little bit of a shorter show today,

713
00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:22,680
Speaker 1: but they'll dive into Lance zer Lines draft position group

714
00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:26,080
Speaker 1: rankings and kind of put together our own rankings.

715
00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:27,240
Speaker 2: For some position groups in fantasy football.

716
00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:36,279
Speaker 1: That's after the break here on the NFL Fantasy Football Podcast. So,

717
00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:39,040
Speaker 1: as we've been talking about the draft and we've been

718
00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:44,040
Speaker 1: talking about individual players, Lance Zerline, who does an incredible

719
00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:46,759
Speaker 1: job every year at NFL dot com, who writes up

720
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 1: draft prospect profiles for like five hundred guys. I can

721
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:54,840
Speaker 1: say that for sure because I know in past years

722
00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:57,839
Speaker 1: I was asked to edit a lot of those. And

723
00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:00,760
Speaker 1: I think I've said this before. Lance does great work.

724
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:02,960
Speaker 1: But I will tell you that when you are editing

725
00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:07,440
Speaker 1: the draft prospect profile of a college kicker, you use

726
00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:09,440
Speaker 1: sort of questioned some of your life decisions. That's all

727
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say. But another thing Lance did you can

728
00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,279
Speaker 1: find at NFL dot com is that he ranked the

729
00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:21,400
Speaker 1: position groups in this draft class. Going through all the

730
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:25,200
Speaker 1: different groups there, you will be interested to know Number

731
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:28,440
Speaker 1: one actually is offensive tackle. That is what he considers

732
00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:32,880
Speaker 1: the strongest position group in this class. The weakest position

733
00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:38,640
Speaker 1: group in this class actually linebacker. So linebacker's not getting

734
00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:41,080
Speaker 1: a whole lot of love this year in the draft.

735
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:43,600
Speaker 1: Some of the other ones, though, wide receiver number two

736
00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:47,320
Speaker 1: not really a surprise. Quarterback at number three, running back

737
00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:50,560
Speaker 1: tied for eighth. Running backs and tight ends actually tied

738
00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:54,520
Speaker 1: for eighth in Lance's position group ranking. But it did

739
00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:58,120
Speaker 1: make me wonder how we view the position groups overall

740
00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:01,920
Speaker 1: in fantasy football. So when you started to look at it,

741
00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:06,800
Speaker 1: what is the strongest position group right now in fantasy

742
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:10,800
Speaker 1: from the draft right, I would just say in general,

743
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:13,400
Speaker 1: like just just fantasy, so like all the guys, but

744
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:14,800
Speaker 1: if you want to go draft, sure, but I was

745
00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:17,080
Speaker 1: just thinking more across the all of fantasy football at

746
00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:17,399
Speaker 1: this point.

747
00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:20,200
Speaker 3: I think for both it's wide receiver. I think it's

748
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:23,759
Speaker 3: unquestionably wide receiver for NFL draft prospects, like where we

749
00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:26,600
Speaker 3: could see seven go in the first round and easily

750
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:28,759
Speaker 3: going to get double digits by the end of day two.

751
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:33,120
Speaker 3: But I would say for real life, for total fantasy

752
00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:38,359
Speaker 3: as well, it's wide receiver because like like remember back

753
00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:40,400
Speaker 3: in the day, it was all running backs in the

754
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:43,879
Speaker 3: first round. Now it's gonna be mostly wide receivers. And

755
00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:47,160
Speaker 3: you look at the top scorers from last year. Yes,

756
00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:51,680
Speaker 3: Christian McCaffrey was otherworldly, but then it's all wide receivers,

757
00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:53,840
Speaker 3: a big gap in there before we get to like

758
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:56,319
Speaker 3: Breise Hall. It's not tight end, I'll tell you that.

759
00:37:57,160 --> 00:38:00,880
Speaker 3: But yeah, I think the amount of not only the

760
00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:03,800
Speaker 3: amount of elite talent just keeps getting deeper and deeper.

761
00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:09,320
Speaker 3: But you could find startable wide receivers deep into your draft.

762
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:13,360
Speaker 3: And I remember last year doing drafts and in the

763
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:16,560
Speaker 3: first four rounds it was like over half the picks

764
00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:18,880
Speaker 3: or wide receivers. So I think that just shows you

765
00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:23,000
Speaker 3: one how much elite talent there is and how deep

766
00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:26,080
Speaker 3: of a position it is, and it's only going to

767
00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 3: get more high end talent and more deep after this

768
00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:30,000
Speaker 3: NFL draft.

769
00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:32,640
Speaker 1: Now, I'm with you, and I think what's interesting is

770
00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:34,759
Speaker 1: that when you look at mock drafts right now, what

771
00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:38,360
Speaker 1: I've noticed is that the first couple three picks in

772
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:41,680
Speaker 1: a lot of drafts are running backs, like Christian McCaffrey's going.

773
00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:43,320
Speaker 2: Early, Bijon's going early.

774
00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:46,000
Speaker 1: You know, maybe some other first round guys are like,

775
00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:48,319
Speaker 1: you know, Breese Hall, Kyron Williams, that sort of thing,

776
00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:53,480
Speaker 1: but generally you're talking about, as you mentioned, a lot

777
00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:56,399
Speaker 1: of wide receivers. I think the reason you're seeing those

778
00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:59,759
Speaker 1: running backs get pulled up is because there aren't a

779
00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:03,520
Speaker 1: lot of sure things at the position. So the handful

780
00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:06,800
Speaker 1: that we have, those guys go early. You're taking McCaffrey

781
00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:10,759
Speaker 1: early because you know the range of outcomes is pretty small. Like,

782
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:13,200
Speaker 1: barring an injury, he's going to be a top three

783
00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:16,520
Speaker 1: fantasy player. I think we still believe that about b

784
00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:19,080
Speaker 1: Jean Robinson, we still feel that about Breise Hall. So

785
00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:22,319
Speaker 1: those guys go early. After those say, you know, top

786
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:25,960
Speaker 1: four maybe five running backs, there's a gap and so

787
00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:28,319
Speaker 1: those guys are going to start to People are gonna

788
00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:29,920
Speaker 1: wait on those guys, and we're gonna fill in that

789
00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:32,239
Speaker 1: gap with wide receiver. So I think wide receiver, you're right,

790
00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:37,359
Speaker 1: is the deepest quarterback for me. Probably follows that even

791
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:40,320
Speaker 1: though we're not necessarily drafting quarterbacks as early.

792
00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:42,840
Speaker 2: Yes, it is nice to go out.

793
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:45,840
Speaker 1: And get a Josh Allen, you know, a Jalen Hurts

794
00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:50,200
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson early, But the fact that you can still wait,

795
00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:53,400
Speaker 1: you can wait till the middle part of your draft

796
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:56,879
Speaker 1: and you can find a quality quarterback right. You can

797
00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:59,840
Speaker 1: get you know, Jared Goff somewhere in the middle rounds.

798
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:02,319
Speaker 1: Last year, you were able to wait and get Jordan Love,

799
00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:05,000
Speaker 1: you were able to wait and get Brock Purty. You

800
00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:07,799
Speaker 1: know those names will be pulled up, but not extremely.

801
00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:11,080
Speaker 1: You can still probably get CJ. Stroud at a decent

802
00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:14,680
Speaker 1: ADP right now. So so quarterback, and I think it

803
00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:17,880
Speaker 1: helps you only play one in most leagues, right outside

804
00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:20,200
Speaker 1: of a super flex or something.

805
00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:22,479
Speaker 2: Like that, or t QB league, you're only playing one.

806
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:27,359
Speaker 1: So it doesn't take as many guys being good consistently

807
00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:31,200
Speaker 1: to have a lot of depth there at that position.

808
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:32,800
Speaker 1: So I guess that these was a running back and

809
00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:35,000
Speaker 1: tight end. Do you have a preference as to which

810
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:36,520
Speaker 1: one leads the other?

811
00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:40,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm in complete agreemance with you. I think quarterback

812
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:43,479
Speaker 3: is two. I think tight end comes in at three,

813
00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:46,600
Speaker 3: which is crazy because we never would have said that

814
00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:49,720
Speaker 3: for years. We were always like tight end is so weak.

815
00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:52,879
Speaker 3: But I think last year it got a big shot

816
00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 3: in the arm that it needed with Sam Laporta obviously

817
00:40:56,040 --> 00:41:00,959
Speaker 3: being amazing, Trey McBride kind of kind of he broke

818
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:04,799
Speaker 3: out in a huge way, David and Joku, and then

819
00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:07,279
Speaker 3: there's there's still a lot of young players that it's

820
00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:11,880
Speaker 3: very easy to get excited about, like like obviously brock

821
00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:15,040
Speaker 3: Bauers coming out of this year, Dalton Kinkaid, there's still

822
00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:18,040
Speaker 3: Dallas Goddard, Kyle Pitts. I'm never gonna give up on him,

823
00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:21,640
Speaker 3: and I didn't even I haven't even mentioned like Travis Kelce,

824
00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:26,200
Speaker 3: Mark Andrews, George Kittle. So I looking at like rankings

825
00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:29,200
Speaker 3: right now, like outside of the top twelve, there's still

826
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:33,359
Speaker 3: names like Dalton Schultz, Cole co Met, Pat Fryer move

827
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:35,800
Speaker 3: Obviously Hackinson would be a lot higher if he was healthy,

828
00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:39,439
Speaker 3: But that to me just shows like, guess there's still

829
00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:41,560
Speaker 3: an advantage to having one of the top tight ends

830
00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:44,439
Speaker 3: and taking one early, but you can wait and get

831
00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:48,520
Speaker 3: someone like Dallas Goddard or Dalton Kinkaid and you're not

832
00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:51,560
Speaker 3: feeling like, oh man, if I don't get a touchdown here,

833
00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:53,600
Speaker 3: I'm gonna get just like three points out of my

834
00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:56,319
Speaker 3: tight end. And in the past it was always that

835
00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:59,279
Speaker 3: way when you waited on the position. So I think

836
00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:01,839
Speaker 3: finally the couple of years has given us a lot

837
00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:03,279
Speaker 3: of talent and push tight end up.

838
00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:05,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's been really, really nice, and I think some

839
00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:06,600
Speaker 1: of it has had to do with kind of the

840
00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:09,600
Speaker 1: specialization at the position where you've got guys who are

841
00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:12,160
Speaker 1: blocking tight ends and you've got the guys who are

842
00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:15,520
Speaker 1: just mostly pass catching tight ends. I think before when

843
00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:19,000
Speaker 1: teams are asking guys to do both, that slowed down

844
00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:21,759
Speaker 1: the learning curve because man, you had to not only be,

845
00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:25,760
Speaker 1: you know, an elite type route runner and or pass catcher,

846
00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:27,440
Speaker 1: but you also had to sort of be a de

847
00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:30,560
Speaker 1: factos sixth offensive lineman. That's a whole lot to learn.

848
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:32,480
Speaker 1: I don't really care who you are. It's going to

849
00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:35,160
Speaker 1: take some time to sort of make that happen. But now,

850
00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:36,960
Speaker 1: I mean, we get the Dalton Kin Kaids of the

851
00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:38,520
Speaker 1: world where they come out and just like, hey, man,

852
00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:39,520
Speaker 1: just run routes and get open.

853
00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:41,880
Speaker 2: We're gonna throw you the ball. Sam Laporta, just run routes.

854
00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:42,919
Speaker 3: And get open. We'll throw you the ball.

855
00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:46,360
Speaker 1: It helps if you're George Kittle and you can do

856
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:51,680
Speaker 1: both effectively. But it seems like teams aren't necessarily demanding

857
00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:54,040
Speaker 1: that of a lot of the guys that they draft.

858
00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:57,279
Speaker 1: Curious to see what happens with brock Bauers wherever he

859
00:42:57,320 --> 00:42:59,840
Speaker 1: goes and what sort of you know, what sort of

860
00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:03,839
Speaker 1: demands are made upon him whenever he lands officially in

861
00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:07,080
Speaker 1: the NFL. So yeah, so I guess that puts running

862
00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:09,359
Speaker 1: back at the number four spot there.

863
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:12,359
Speaker 3: Yikes. I know people are gonna be like, running back

864
00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:14,640
Speaker 3: is deeper than tight end, and I'm not saying it's not.

865
00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:17,920
Speaker 3: But you start one tight end, you start two, maybe

866
00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:21,040
Speaker 3: three running backs if you have a flex spot, and like,

867
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:26,160
Speaker 3: once you get past the top seven or eight running backs,

868
00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:29,680
Speaker 3: they all come with question marks. And once you get

869
00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:32,319
Speaker 3: past like the top fifteen or so, they all come

870
00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:37,879
Speaker 3: with huge question marks. So I also, you can wait

871
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:41,560
Speaker 3: on that position and find injury replacements or someone that

872
00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:43,520
Speaker 3: breaks out off the waiver wire or something like that.

873
00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:46,560
Speaker 3: I always think it's easier to find running backs off

874
00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:48,200
Speaker 3: the waiver wire than other positions.

875
00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:52,000
Speaker 1: I think it is because teams use so many of them,

876
00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:54,879
Speaker 1: Because they rotate so many guys through, there's always an opportunity.

877
00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:58,440
Speaker 1: And you start to look at you know, specialization and

878
00:43:58,480 --> 00:44:00,600
Speaker 1: division of labor, right, and like, hey, then this guy's

879
00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:02,120
Speaker 1: going to catch some passes, he's going to get work

880
00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:03,640
Speaker 1: in a two minute drill. This guy's going to be

881
00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:06,480
Speaker 1: a goal line back where he's got that touchdown upside.

882
00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:09,600
Speaker 1: But I'm sort of looking at some of these ADPs,

883
00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 1: and I think once you get to like, you know,

884
00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:16,680
Speaker 1: running back twelve thirteen, they all do come with real

885
00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:20,040
Speaker 1: serious question marks. I think you've got a group of

886
00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:22,799
Speaker 1: like five or six that are high level, you've got

887
00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:26,479
Speaker 1: kind of a next tier below that, and then there's

888
00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:29,279
Speaker 1: a big, big fall off. So I don't think there

889
00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:32,840
Speaker 1: is quite the depth there, because, as you mentioned, a

890
00:44:32,880 --> 00:44:33,920
Speaker 1: lot of least you got to start at.

891
00:44:33,920 --> 00:44:37,759
Speaker 2: Least two maybe three. The depth at running back is

892
00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:38,719
Speaker 2: not there.

893
00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:40,600
Speaker 1: Look, man, for those of you who play in like

894
00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:42,840
Speaker 1: the scott Fish Bowl, you know, if you need a

895
00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:44,600
Speaker 1: running back and you got to go to the waiver wire,

896
00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:50,160
Speaker 1: good luck, it might only be better just to start

897
00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:52,160
Speaker 1: an empty space because you might get the same level

898
00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:54,120
Speaker 1: of production at that point.

899
00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:56,359
Speaker 2: So yeah, there it is.

900
00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:59,600
Speaker 1: We're back tomorrow with our live stream. Just that heads up,

901
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:02,160
Speaker 1: it may be a little bit later. Peel behind the curtain.

902
00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:05,040
Speaker 1: We have administrative duties here, We have meetings that we

903
00:45:05,080 --> 00:45:09,240
Speaker 1: have to sit in tomorrow morning, so that will probably

904
00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:11,400
Speaker 1: push back the start of our live stream. But if

905
00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:13,480
Speaker 1: you can make it to the cheat sheet, please do.

906
00:45:13,520 --> 00:45:14,799
Speaker 2: We love having you there. In the chat.

907
00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:17,680
Speaker 1: You can drop your questions in any kind of discussion topics,

908
00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:19,560
Speaker 1: so we'll be sure to put it out on the

909
00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:22,000
Speaker 1: twitters when we were about ready to go live. But

910
00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:24,560
Speaker 1: we've been very thrilled with the response through the first

911
00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:27,520
Speaker 1: two weeks. We are grateful, we appreciate you, and hopefully

912
00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:29,399
Speaker 1: you are back there again for it as well.

913
00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:30,120
Speaker 2: In the meantime.

914
00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:32,720
Speaker 1: That'll do it for this edition of the NFL Fantasy

915
00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:35,279
Speaker 1: Football Podcast. They happy, save and healthy, do good and

Speaker 2: I don't know
