Let's start in the MVP market where 47 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 1: last year Matthew Stafford won the NFL MVP opened up 48 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 1: at thirty five to one. He became the thirteenth straight 49 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:15,400 Speaker 1: quarterback to win the award. Therefore, the sportsbooks playing pretty 50 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: close to the vest right now. I'd say the other 51 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,680 Speaker 1: favorites currently right now Josh Allen if you also include 52 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,399 Speaker 1: prediction markets plus eight h nine, the best value for him, 53 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,079 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson nine to one, Joe Burrow ten to one, 54 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert eleven to one, Drake May twelve to one, 55 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 1: off that sensational sophomore year Patrick Mahons plus thirteen twenty nine. 56 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 1: We also have Matthew Stafford coming back in at fourteen 57 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 1: to one. Kleob Williams cover the mat and also gonna 58 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 1: get fifteen to one odds fifteen plus fifteen sixty seven 59 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 1: for Dak Prescott, twenty two to one for Dak Prescott 60 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,119 Speaker 1: in twenty four to one for Trevor Lawrence. So Andrew 61 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 1: looking at the board here, what are the best overall 62 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:54,640 Speaker 1: bets that you're currently considering to add to that portfolio. 63 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 2: So the ones that I like the most from the 64 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 2: favorites are Joe Burrow and Justin Herbert. Those are kind 65 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:02,640 Speaker 2: of the two guys that stand out to me as 66 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 2: some decent values. Joe Burrow at ten to one, like 67 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 2: you said, Josen Herbert at eleven to one. We know 68 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 2: this is somewhat of a narrative driven award when it 69 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 2: comes to, okay, the best quarterback on the team that 70 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 2: wins double digit games. Now, in the past, it has 71 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 2: been you needed to be the number one seed most 72 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 2: of the time, but the last two seasons that has 73 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 2: not been the case. Josh Allen won in twenty twenty 74 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:26,119 Speaker 2: four they had the second best record in the AFC. 75 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 2: Last year, the Matthew Stafford led Rams. They didn't even 76 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,520 Speaker 2: win the NFC West they were twelve and five, but 77 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 2: obviously Stafford put up bonkers touchdown numbers and ended up 78 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 2: taking home the MVP Awards. So as long as you're winning, 79 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 2: you know eleven, twelve, thirteen types of games, that usually 80 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 2: puts you in that conversation. Along with being the best 81 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 2: quarterback of the you know the season that we're talking 82 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 2: about now. So Joe Burrow to me, whenever he's healthy, 83 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 2: I think that there's always an argument you made that 84 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 2: he is the best quarterback in the NFL. It's just 85 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 2: a matter of health. The Bengals their schedule third easiest 86 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 2: this year, and if the defense can do anything anything, 87 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 2: just be average and help this team win games. Because 88 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 2: you look at Burrow the last three fully healthy seasons, 89 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 2: he's played averaging over ten and a half wins. So 90 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 2: healthy Joe Burrow plus an improved defense, easy schedule. You 91 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 2: look at the way that the AFC North has set 92 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 2: up three new head coaches. The only returning head coach 93 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,280 Speaker 2: is Zach Taylor. So I know Zach Taylor's not necessarily 94 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 2: the one that we love. He's also usually near the 95 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:27,600 Speaker 2: top of the list of coaches most likely to get fired. 96 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 2: But if it works in their favor that they have 97 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 2: some congruity, I think that this could actually work in 98 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,719 Speaker 2: the Bengal Again. We really like the Bengals, myself Debro 99 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 2: as a team that we like the win total going 100 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 2: over it's at nine and a half wins, So I 101 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 2: think that the Bengals are going to be a position 102 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 2: where if Joe Burrow plays like he should play when 103 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 2: he is healthy with all these weapons, defense plays a 104 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:51,160 Speaker 2: little bit better helps him win more games. I think 105 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 2: that you could see Joe Burrow in this conversation throughout 106 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 2: the entire season and even in some of these primetime 107 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 2: matchups where Joe Burrow has had no problem beating teams 108 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 2: like the Bills and the Chiefs throughout his career, So 109 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:04,159 Speaker 2: when you're looking at those head to head matchups, I 110 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:05,920 Speaker 2: think Joe Burrow also has a chance to kind of 111 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 2: shine out and shine above some of these other guys 112 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 2: that are favored a little bit or the odds are 113 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 2: a little bit shorter. 114 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 1: Hey, that's totally understandable, and it feels like, if not 115 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 1: now win for Joe Burrow to put himself in this conversation. 116 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,480 Speaker 1: My only issue there is like, maybe this is when 117 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 1: I want to place after Week one or two, because 118 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow, the Bengals typically slow starters. They're going to 119 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:30,839 Speaker 1: be going off in Week one against the Buccaneers and 120 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 1: then the Texans and then the Steelers, so a couple 121 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 1: of tough matchups there, two of those being on the 122 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,479 Speaker 1: road against pretty good defenses there in Pittsburgh and Houston. 123 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 1: So that's my only concern with Burrow is like, maybe 124 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 1: this is one I'm placing mid September late September. Any 125 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,600 Speaker 1: thoughts about maybe slow playing that or do you think 126 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,919 Speaker 1: this is the year that Joe Burrow and the boys 127 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: finally get off to a buzz and start. 128 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,840 Speaker 2: Well if you recalled to last year, they didn't have 129 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 2: a slow start. Last year. They were two and oh 130 00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 2: and then Joe Burrow got hurt in the second game 131 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 2: and then that obviously unraveled the rest of the season. 132 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,479 Speaker 2: So I do remember talking about this in the Betting 133 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 2: Broughs discord, and I think on some of the shows 134 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 2: where Zach Taylor had come out and said, We're gonna 135 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 2: play our guys in the preseason. We can't start sluggish anymore. 136 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 2: We have to play our guys, and you start to 137 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:18,480 Speaker 2: see that at least work out. I think last year 138 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 2: they played the Browns in Week one, so it wasn't 139 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 2: at the time necessarily like this Marque matchup, and they 140 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 2: played the Jacksonville Jaguars. I believe in Week two bro 141 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 2: ends up getting hurt in that game, but they end 142 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,919 Speaker 2: up winning. So I'm not as hesitant to fire on 143 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 2: this now, especially when you last year I think it 144 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 2: was Joe Brow plus six fifty to be envy. Yes, 145 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 2: it was so anything so ten to one. I still 146 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 2: think it's pretty good value. I do think it's a 147 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 2: good point though, considering they played the Texans. It's a 148 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:44,720 Speaker 2: really tough defense. Jo Brow may not put up really 149 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 2: good numbers in that particular game, but that Tampa Bay 150 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 2: Buccaneers matchup in League One, you could see some some fireworks, 151 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 2: particularly in that matchup. So I don't hate or I'm 152 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 2: okay if you want to wait, I'm still okay with 153 00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 2: firing on it. And the same thing with Justin Herbert. 154 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:01,920 Speaker 2: But I think it's probably my favorite of the two 155 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 2: of the more favored guys. He did get MVP of 156 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 2: a VOUTE last year. Justin Herbert did because of what 157 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 2: he was able to do in this offense that I 158 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 2: just he was doing everything. If you watched the Chargers 159 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 2: last year, he was a one man show. The offensive 160 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 2: line was totally just. 161 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 3: Completely tackles whatsoever, no tackles. 162 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 2: Just Herbert's playing through a broken hand. He's still out there. 163 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 2: I think he was the most hit quarterback of last 164 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 2: year and how many How many games did the Chargers win? 165 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 2: They won eleven games last year, and then they just 166 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 2: ran out of gas in the playoffs where they didn't 167 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 2: really stand a chance, you know, going on the road 168 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 2: against the Patriots. So I really think that justin Herbert, 169 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 2: he with Mike McDaniel coming in as a new offensive coordinator, 170 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 2: I'm just really excited for this offense. If they're healthier. 171 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 2: We saw some of the splits with Herbert last year 172 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 2: when those offensive tackles were healthy in the lineup, he 173 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 2: looked like an MVP player. If they got they can 174 00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,679 Speaker 2: stay healthy upfront. He has depth at the receiver position, 175 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 2: He's got depth at tight end. If you run the 176 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 2: ball effectively with McDaniel, with o'mary and Hampton heat Mitchell 177 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 2: look nine and a half win total, same as the Bengals. 178 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 2: And to the converse point of what you talked about 179 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 2: with the Bengals where slow starters. First two weeks of 180 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 2: the season, Chargers play the Cardinals and the Raiders. 181 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 3: Oh baby baby, So we're. 182 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 2: Talking about sparks flying early. I can really see this 183 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 2: Chargers team jumping out to a very very hot start, 184 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 2: and then you're gonna see these odds reduced dramatically as 185 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:32,839 Speaker 2: we're entering Week three when the schedule does get much 186 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 2: tougher for the Chargers. But they have to win these 187 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 2: big games, right, whether it's the Denver Broncos, whether it's 188 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 2: the Kansas City Chiefs, if against Patrick Mahomes, Herbert's gonna 189 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:43,679 Speaker 2: have a chance in some of these primetime spots and 190 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:47,560 Speaker 2: marquee matchups. To cement himself as hey, I should be 191 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 2: the MVP this season. And I think that as long 192 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,199 Speaker 2: as they don't rely too much on running the football, 193 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,320 Speaker 2: and you're seeing Hampton score all the touchdowns. If Herbert 194 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:56,719 Speaker 2: is calling his number, he's rushing, he's throwing touchdowns, he 195 00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 2: looks great, he looks fantastic. Yeah, I think he can 196 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,439 Speaker 2: win this award. And another thing too, I want to 197 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 2: point out is doing some research. This is from clev Analytics, 198 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 2: basically talking about how the average age of the MVP 199 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:13,840 Speaker 2: quarterback is usually around twenty seven to twenty eight years old. 200 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 2: So last year Matthew Stafford with a bit of an 201 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 2: outlier as an older quarterback, certainly Justin Herberts twenty eight 202 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:22,199 Speaker 2: years old. This is typically when you see quarterbacks hit 203 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 2: some of their prime years. So I think Herbert could 204 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:26,320 Speaker 2: be in for your career year, and that's why I 205 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 2: like him at eleven to one to win MVP. 206 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 3: It's an interesting number. 207 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:33,439 Speaker 1: Herbert's someone I didn't really consider at his current odds, 208 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:35,679 Speaker 1: but I like what you said, like, if you're going 209 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 1: to get down on this, probably get down on it 210 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 1: early with those Leaker opponents slay to start the season. 211 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,079 Speaker 3: And I also just love what the Chargers have been 212 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 3: doing here. 213 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 1: I think Omary and Hampton, if I could find the 214 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 1: right number for him for OPOY, I would be interested 215 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 1: there because I think he set up to have a 216 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 1: great year. 217 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 3: We know, of course, McDaniels. 218 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 1: Is coming over from this Kyle Shanahan system that he 219 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 1: took to Miami and build a really good run game, right, 220 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 1: and I think a lot of people that's scaring them off. 221 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 1: But he's also never worked with a quarterback like Justin Herbert, right, 222 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 1: he was dealing with Mike White and two and Zach Wilson, 223 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 1: those types of quarterbacks down there in Miami. So I 224 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:15,080 Speaker 1: think having Justin Herbert here another full year to develop 225 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 1: in this hardball system, and also you factor in like 226 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 1: this this wide receiving course. All of a sudden pretty good, right, 227 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 1: Lad McConkey. QJ has come a long way in the 228 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 1: past two or so years. Trey Harris, what does he 229 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,840 Speaker 1: have in his sophomore year? If Ole miss and Oroande 230 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 1: Gaston Junior as well at tight end, I think you 231 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 1: can do a lot worse than that. So justin Herbert 232 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 1: eleven to one, I don't hate that one at all. 233 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 1: What's your best overall value? 234 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 3: Maybe a little bit of a long shot in this 235 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:38,680 Speaker 3: particular market, Andrew. 236 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,800 Speaker 2: For me, it's Trevor Lawrence at twenty four to ten 237 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,959 Speaker 2: to win the MVP Award. I don't always want to 238 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:49,320 Speaker 2: cite fantasy stats on the Betting Pro Show, but after 239 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 2: Week five, no quarterbacks scored more Fantasy points than Trevor 240 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 2: Lawrence did. 241 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 3: Wow. 242 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, more Fantasy points per game than Josh Allen, than 243 00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 2: Drake May, than Matthew Stafford. So he really started to 244 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 2: click and fire on all cylinders in Liam Cohen's offense. 245 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 2: And that was despite kind of a rotating carousel of receivers. Right, 246 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 2: Travis Hunter was a fixture in the offense, then he 247 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:12,960 Speaker 2: got hurt. Brian Thomas Junior was in out lineup, Jehobey 248 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 2: Myers was a guy they traded for midway through the year. 249 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 2: Now all these guys are back and is ready to 250 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 2: go in certain roles, and Parker Washington is another player 251 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 2: that seems like Liam Cohen and Trevor Lawrence are really 252 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 2: excited to take another step forward as a slot player. 253 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 2: So a lot of toys that Trevor Lawrence can play 254 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,960 Speaker 2: with his second year in Liam Cohen's offense. And going 255 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 2: back to the point I made earlier, twenty seven years 256 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 2: old Trevor Lawrence. It is crazy to think that he's 257 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:37,680 Speaker 2: only twenty seven years old, but he came out of 258 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 2: Clemson so early. Guys that are twenty seven years old 259 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 2: this season, Bo Nicks, Trevor Lawrence, Rock Purdy, Tyler Shuck 260 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:49,559 Speaker 2: wo Like, it's like a really weird list of quarterback names, 261 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 2: but typically this has been when a lot of quarterbacks 262 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 2: hit their prime year statistically. So when I'm just looking at, hey, 263 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,320 Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence, could the planets align for him? I mean 264 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 2: last year two there was a lot to really like 265 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 2: thirty eight total touchdowns last year that trailed only Matthew 266 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 2: Stafford Josh Allen, and it was actually more than Drake 267 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 2: may who was second in the MVP running. He had 268 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 2: nine rushing touchdowns in the red zone last year, second 269 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:15,200 Speaker 2: only to Josh. 270 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:16,559 Speaker 3: Allen Colin's ozone number. 271 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, Colin is own number. I think they continue to 272 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 2: do more design stuff and the thing that kind of 273 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,560 Speaker 2: gets me even more on Trevor Lawrence. They're also playing 274 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 2: the Browns week one, so you feel good about that. 275 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 2: No Miles Garrett, so a less imposing defense to start 276 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 2: things off. Liam Cohen was second and Coach of the 277 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 2: Year awards last year voting, so clearly the teams are 278 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 2: starting to vote and look at the Jaguars as a 279 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 2: team like okay, like this team could really take another 280 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,960 Speaker 2: step forward potentially in the second year with Liam Cohen. 281 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 2: They like to throw the ball in the red zone, 282 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,319 Speaker 2: like to throw the ball overall in general, one of 283 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 2: the highest rates in terms of pass over expectations. So 284 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:51,679 Speaker 2: I think everyone has a chance to throw a lot 285 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 2: of touchdowns, rush for a lot of touchdowns. And in 286 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 2: the AFC South, we know, hey, it's anyone's division more 287 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 2: often than not. So even if they they don't post 288 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 2: the best record in the AFC, I think this doesn't 289 00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 2: potentially flirt with double digit wins. Trevor Lawrence, Yeah, maybe 290 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:09,839 Speaker 2: this is his time to shine, So, especially at twenty 291 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 2: four to one, I do like him as my long 292 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 2: shot MVP dark horse candidate. 293 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, not bad odds at all there, especially like you 294 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:20,080 Speaker 1: talk about the receiving corps, maybe not the most high 295 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:22,320 Speaker 1: end talent group in the league, but could we argue 296 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 1: the deepest like I don't know if anyone else goes 297 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 1: four deep like the Jacksonville Jaguars. Do they have a 298 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 1: capable tight end? Of course in Brenton Strange there they 299 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:31,640 Speaker 1: added a blocking tight end in the draft too, so 300 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 1: and even like Trevor Etn or Travis Etn losing him 301 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,560 Speaker 1: in that backfield that hurts a little bit, but you 302 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:40,199 Speaker 1: actually look at his efficiency stats last season they were 303 00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 1: not good, so I think maybe even it's like an 304 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 1: addition by subtraction type of thing in that offense. As 305 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 1: long as you know ba shall two and the boys 306 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:50,439 Speaker 1: can carry that that load in that backfield, I think 307 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 1: they'll be pretty good set up. The only question for 308 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 1: me is like Ken Trevor Lawrence and the Jaguars navigate, 309 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:58,200 Speaker 1: which will be a much tougher schedule than they faced 310 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 1: a year ago, That is the question mark. But twenty 311 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: four to one, especially with the date against the Cleveland 312 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: Browns there in Week one. 313 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 3: Not a bad play at all. 314 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 1: Let's go to the Offensive Player of the Year market, 315 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: where JSN another long shot that cashed in the awards 316 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 1: market a year ago, making the seventh straight season that 317 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 1: the award has been won by either a wide receiver 318 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:18,559 Speaker 1: or a running back. Ericson he used to see in 319 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 1: the past that really this was a market that quarterbacks 320 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 1: could also win alongside that MVP. It's been a while though, 321 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 1: since we've seen that, and your twenty twenty six favorites 322 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: are certainly following the formula that is likely a running 323 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: back or a wide receiver, with Jamior Gibbs your favorite 324 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 1: eight to one, b Jon Robinson at plus nine fifty, 325 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 1: Jamar Chase twelve to one, Justin Jefferson plus three thirteen 326 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 1: twenty nine, same price for Pooka Nakua. They're eighteen to 327 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 1: one for Justin Jefferson, JSN nineteen to one, Christian McCaffrey 328 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 1: twenty to one, Jonathan Taylor twenty to one, Ceedee Lamb 329 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 1: twenty four to one, and James Cook at twenty five 330 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 1: to one. Ericson, who is your best overall bet for 331 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 1: this market. 332 00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 2: For me, it's gonna be Jamar Chase. I feel like 333 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 2: I was very much on the Jamar Chase in twenty 334 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:07,240 Speaker 2: twenty four to win this award. I was all over it. 335 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 2: I felt like he should have been the number one 336 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 2: picking fantasy and ended up being right. Unfortunately, we ran 337 00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 2: into the second Barkley two thousand yard rushing So like, 338 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:19,520 Speaker 2: that's what it takes for running backs to win this award. Essentially, 339 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 2: it's you got to leave the NFL rushing yards get 340 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:23,760 Speaker 2: two thousand rushing yards most of the time. You look 341 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 2: at Derek Hemery when he won this award, he rushed 342 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 2: for two thousand yards. So I like to lean on 343 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 2: the receiver side here, and I just can't think that 344 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 2: we're gonna go hold Jamar Chase career and he's never 345 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 2: gonna win offensive player. That's fair, Yeah, right, He's just 346 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 2: too talented of a player. He's still in his prime. Again, 347 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 2: we talked about Joe Burrow, we talked about the Bengals overall, 348 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 2: a team that could win a lot of games. And 349 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 2: we know that Jamar Chase is his number one receiver, 350 00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 2: so he's six to one for most receiving yards. He's 351 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 2: twelve to one for Offensive Player of the Year. But 352 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 2: when you look at conventional wisdom, if you leave the 353 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,440 Speaker 2: NFL and receiving yards, you're a pretty good bet to 354 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 2: finish as the winner of this assuming that there isn't 355 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:00,440 Speaker 2: a running back that also rushes for two thousand yards, 356 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 2: which unfortunately puts some of the receivers in a tough spot. 357 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 2: So I'm gonna bet against that happening instead betting on 358 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 2: Jamar Chase to leave the NFL and receiving yards but 359 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 2: getting at better odds, so off if it's a Player 360 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 2: of the Year, for me, my best bet is going 361 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,720 Speaker 2: to be Jamar Chase. I think it's interesting too about 362 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:17,560 Speaker 2: this one. This is also from Club Analytics. Of the 363 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 2: seventeen skill position players to win the award since the 364 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 2: year two thousand, all of them were twenty eight or younger, 365 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 2: so this is a young man's award, And unfortunately it 366 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 2: pains me because one of the other bets I really 367 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 2: liked was aj Brown to win this award at fifty 368 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 2: to one. He is twenty nine years old, So it 369 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 2: doesn't mean it's impossible. Twenty eight could just read more 370 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 2: of an arbitrary number, because that's just how old those 371 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 2: players were, But I did want to bring it to 372 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 2: the table and be like, yes, I do think AJ 373 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 2: Brown landing in this Patriots offense. I think it's the 374 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 2: perfect fit alongside Drake may He's twelfth all time in 375 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 2: receiving yards per game. So going back to Okay, if 376 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 2: you leave the NFL and receiving yards, this is a 377 00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:00,960 Speaker 2: good way for receivers to win this award twelfth all time. 378 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 2: I think he has an upgraded quarterback this season. We've 379 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:06,960 Speaker 2: seen Josh McDaniels, Pepper, alpha receivers like Brandon Marshall, like 380 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:08,879 Speaker 2: DeVonta Adams in the past of AJ Brown flips with 381 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty targets. Man, he could very much 382 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 2: well leave the NFL and receiving yards this season, so 383 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 2: I did want to give him a shout at fifty 384 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 2: to one as well. What are your thoughts on some 385 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 2: of these Offensive Player of the Year awards. 386 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:22,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think when it comes to AJ Brown, you 387 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:25,160 Speaker 1: don't go out and trade a first round pick, even 388 00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 1: if it's in twenty twenty eight, if you're not planning 389 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,040 Speaker 1: on using AJ Brown as your. 390 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,600 Speaker 3: Alpha wide receiver like they have other guys there. 391 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 1: But Romeo Dobbs isn't someone that I'm certainly afraid of 392 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:37,639 Speaker 1: stepping on the toes of AJ Brown. He came to 393 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 1: New England to put up big numbers that he wasn't 394 00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:43,200 Speaker 1: doing in Philadelphia. Drake May getting an alpha wide receiver 395 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 1: in his prime is certainly exciting as well. So definitely 396 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:48,719 Speaker 1: on on with you there, Like he's someone in fantasy. 397 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:50,520 Speaker 1: I know we're trying to keep things more betting, but 398 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,119 Speaker 1: I've been taking my shot at I have him inside 399 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 1: my top ten of my rankings. 400 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 3: I know you're on that as well. 401 00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,639 Speaker 1: And with Jamar Chase, like he is someone I've actually 402 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:02,120 Speaker 1: been looking at, like those benchmark numbers to reach twelve 403 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:04,639 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty yards because he's so consistent or one 404 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:07,399 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty plus receptions. He's average one hundred and 405 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 1: twenty six receptions the past two seasons. He's never been 406 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:12,639 Speaker 1: under a thousand yards in his career. So this is 407 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:15,639 Speaker 1: a player that so dang consistent it doesn't really matter 408 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:17,919 Speaker 1: who plays opposite of him. Like him and T Higgins 409 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,280 Speaker 1: have kind of found that one A one B groove, 410 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 1: unlike where you have in Dallas with Ceedee Lamb and 411 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 1: George Pickens where they're kind of eating into each other's share, 412 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:27,960 Speaker 1: where I don't think either of them can get to 413 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:31,200 Speaker 1: this plateau to win this award. But I like both 414 00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 1: those numbers honestly that you threw out, and actually I 415 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:37,199 Speaker 1: might like your final bet here, your best overall value 416 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,119 Speaker 1: in this market, maybe the best because he was certainly 417 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 1: someone I was considering for my own card as well. 418 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 2: Rock Bowers eight to one to win this award. I think, 419 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 2: I think everybody watching this show, we got to do 420 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 2: a sprinkle of rock powers to win this award. I 421 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 2: think that this is way too much fun to not 422 00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:55,919 Speaker 2: bet on. Now a titand has never won this award 423 00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 2: that I could. I tried to see. I tried to 424 00:18:58,080 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 2: go back to see if ever win off It's a 425 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:03,400 Speaker 2: player the year that has not happened to my research. 426 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:06,159 Speaker 2: And it's odd because you think none of these Travis 427 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:10,600 Speaker 2: Kelcey years, none of this, Rob Gronkowski, Jimmy Graham, Goalez, 428 00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 2: Tony Gonzalez, like no, like, none of these guys ever 429 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 2: sniffed this award. However, when you look at brock Bauers 430 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 2: and what he could be in this offense, what if 431 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 2: he just has like the JSN season that we just 432 00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:25,199 Speaker 2: saw in a Clinton Kubiak offense. But yeah, it's the 433 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 2: brock Bauers as the receiver in this particular in the 434 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 2: Kubiak offense. We know he's super talented from what he 435 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:35,120 Speaker 2: did when he was healthy as a rookie last year 436 00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 2: when he was healthy with Gino Smith. Look if he 437 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 2: gets average quarterback played with Mendoza, which I think to 438 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:41,880 Speaker 2: this point brockbar still hasn't had like an average quarterback 439 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:46,439 Speaker 2: play in his career, whichtween aid O'Connell Gino Smith disaster 440 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 2: last year for the most part. 441 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:50,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, I really. 442 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 2: Think that brock Bauers could be live for this bet. 443 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:55,000 Speaker 2: And I really think that you're getting it at longer 444 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 2: odds because he plays tight end. When we watched brock 445 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 2: Barers play, I mean he's he's really more of a 446 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:03,960 Speaker 2: wide receiver than a tight end. So I think that 447 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 2: this is just too long. Again, anything can happen, but 448 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 2: the value that you can get from a player like 449 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 2: brock Bowers, I don't think that these odds are going 450 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:13,480 Speaker 2: to stay this long. So if you were dabbling in 451 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:15,960 Speaker 2: the prediction market, brock Bowers I think is one to 452 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 2: definitely wager some money. On because I think that these 453 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 2: odds are going to dramatically shift as we start to 454 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:24,120 Speaker 2: see his role evolve in this offense, especially when Mendoza 455 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 2: takes over as the starting quarterback. I think it's gonna 456 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 2: be the Brock Bowers show double digit targets every single week, 457 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 2: and I think he's talent enough to really feast potentially 458 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,679 Speaker 2: be a dark horse to see like either NFL reception 459 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:38,639 Speaker 2: receiving yards potentially if he gets enough volume, if he 460 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:40,640 Speaker 2: stays healthy. I think that the ceiling is just too 461 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 2: high for eighty to one. 462 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:45,199 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm here for I even saw Trey McBride floating 463 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:46,639 Speaker 1: out there at ninety to one. But I think the 464 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,160 Speaker 1: issue with McBride is you're on a team with Marvin 465 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:52,919 Speaker 1: Harrison Junior, Michael Wilson, and Jeremiah Love, which you know. 466 00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,120 Speaker 1: Brock Bowers, on the other hand, like there's not much. 467 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm a Jack Besch guy. We've talked about 468 00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:59,640 Speaker 1: that off camera before. I know, so there's some trade 469 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 1: talkers stands out there too, but you're not working with 470 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,919 Speaker 1: a whole lot in this receiving core right now that 471 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 1: I think is going to steal away targets from Brock Bowers, 472 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:09,960 Speaker 1: you have to hope like he has to surpass Train 473 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:13,120 Speaker 1: McBride this season and put up better numbers than him 474 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 1: to get out there and be in contention for this award. 475 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,159 Speaker 1: But how I like to play future markets, and it 476 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,159 Speaker 1: sounds like how you do too, is like I like 477 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: investing in building this portfolio and if a cash out 478 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 1: opportunity comes a foot here in a couple months, like 479 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 1: I'm willing to cash out if I don't see the 480 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:32,679 Speaker 1: end goal of potentially actually hitting this bet. So I 481 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:35,639 Speaker 1: think right there, brock Bowers eighty to one, shop that around. 482 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 1: I think that's a really fine number. We're going to 483 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:40,840 Speaker 1: get into the Defensive Player of the Year odds as well. 484 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,560 Speaker 3: But first, a quick reminder that the NFL futures are 485 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 3: not just about. 486 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:46,439 Speaker 1: Picking who you think we win.

He's your favored again, going off anywhere from 503 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:33,119 Speaker 1: plus three thirty five to plus four fifty, so the 504 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 1: books certainly like him making that move to Los Angeles, 505 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,720 Speaker 1: Will Anderson Junior eight to one, eight in Hutchinson twelve 506 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 1: to one, plus fifteen to sixty seven for Nick Bonito 507 00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 1: of the Denver Broncos. There Max Crosby comes in at 508 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,719 Speaker 1: twenty to one, some discrepancy across books on La crosse, 509 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:51,919 Speaker 1: and then Daniel Hunter here at twenty five to one, 510 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,720 Speaker 1: Nick Bosa twenty seven to one, Jared First twenty seven 511 00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 1: to one, TJ. Watt twenty seven to one. So honestly, Erickson, 512 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 1: this is one of those markets I was actually eyes 513 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:02,960 Speaker 1: to see, like Max Crosby out at twenty to one, 514 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 1: where he's closer to eight to one of some books, 515 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:06,680 Speaker 1: and same thing with TJ. 516 00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:07,000 Speaker 3: Watt. 517 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 1: I just never thought i'd see him out at twenty 518 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 1: seven to one. So I think there's good value down 519 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 1: the board. But is this really anyone's ballgame outside of 520 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 1: Miles Garrett. 521 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:19,640 Speaker 2: It's gonna be tough. I think it's gonna cause it's 522 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,119 Speaker 2: gonna require an injury to Miles Garrett for him not 523 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 2: to win this forward because the table is so set 524 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:29,400 Speaker 2: perfectly for him to just smash and repeat. And we've 525 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 2: seen this before. We've seen guys repeat as defensive Player 526 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:36,119 Speaker 2: of the Year that's not Aaron Donalds. Particularly Donald Watt 527 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:39,400 Speaker 2: has done it as well. So I think that the 528 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 2: voters in particular, they already love Miles Garrett. Miles Garrett 529 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:44,119 Speaker 2: just broke the sack record on a team with a 530 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:47,359 Speaker 2: bad record, a team with a losing record. That doesn't 531 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:50,920 Speaker 2: ever happen. And now you're in a situation where Miles Garrett, Now, 532 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 2: for just comparison's sake, let's say he's in you know, 533 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:55,880 Speaker 2: the quote unquote Jared Verse role. He gets to take 534 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 2: on the pressures that Jared Versus has been generating the 535 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:00,639 Speaker 2: last two years. Jared Versus been top five pressures over 536 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 2: the last two seasons. But has this not been a 537 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 2: guy that has finished with a lot of sacks? Right, 538 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 2: Miles Garrett's gonna fish with sacks like we like, we 539 00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 2: know that he's gonna have more sacks than a standard 540 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 2: pass rusher would usually do, just based on the amount 541 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 2: of pressures that they generate, gonna be playing in positive 542 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 2: game scripts. How often was he playing a positive game 543 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:21,840 Speaker 2: script with the Cleveland Browns. So I think that he 544 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:25,439 Speaker 2: is just such a strong favorite where I don't mind. 545 00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:27,720 Speaker 2: I just I think it's a good price. I think 546 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 2: it should be shorter, to be totally honest, like plus 547 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,119 Speaker 2: four fifty. I think the odds should be shorter. I 548 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 2: think he should be more of a heavy favorite, just 549 00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 2: based on the circumstances. He has upgraded situation with the 550 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 2: Los Angeles Rams again, a team that's gonna be playing 551 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 2: in a ton of primetime games. People are gonna be 552 00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:45,480 Speaker 2: watching a ton of Miles Garrett. When I was watching 553 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:47,920 Speaker 2: the Browns and Patriots last year, that was when I 554 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:50,399 Speaker 2: really got to appreciate Miles Garrett that just a little 555 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:52,199 Speaker 2: bit more because it was going into my team. I 556 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:55,400 Speaker 2: was like, oh my god, this guy is a one 557 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:58,359 Speaker 2: man wrecking machine, and I just think that people are 558 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:00,879 Speaker 2: gonna be so nail again. Ales Garret is already one 559 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 2: of the best player in defense last year, best player 560 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:06,120 Speaker 2: in defense probably over the last twenty years. Just overall, 561 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:08,920 Speaker 2: people are going to be enamored with him, and he's 562 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 2: going to be a tough guy to supplant from this 563 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:14,639 Speaker 2: spot as the favorite of defensive player they're in the 564 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:16,440 Speaker 2: guy that I think is probably going to repeat again 565 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 2: unless there is some type of injury, which is always possible, 566 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:22,280 Speaker 2: which is why I'm not sure if you have any 567 00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:24,320 Speaker 2: one down the list where you're like, maybe I'll take 568 00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 2: a shot. I know I have one player in particular, 569 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 2: but any of the thoughts on Garrett. 570 00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 3: For you, Yeah, I mean this is a squad ride 571 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 3: for me. Absolutely. 572 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 1: My play with a lot of these futures is we're 573 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 1: gonna get to these dog days of summer. 574 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:35,879 Speaker 3: Right now. 575 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 1: We're kind of in a weird spot where we do 576 00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 1: have World Cup action, NBA, NHL just finish off their season. 577 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 1: But these sportsbooks, including hard Rock bet, they're gonna want 578 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 1: you to get invested in this market and they're gonna 579 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 1: offer boost as we get close to the season as 580 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:51,359 Speaker 1: there's not much live sporting events going on over the summer, 581 00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:53,119 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna wait for that and see, hey, can 582 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:55,359 Speaker 1: I grab this at seven to one? Can I grab 583 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:57,639 Speaker 1: this at six to one? Anything a little bit longer? 584 00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,239 Speaker 1: But I'm fine with it at plus four fifty right 585 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:03,199 Speaker 1: now as well, because you look to those numbers you 586 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 1: were talking about in the game script difference. Teams threw 587 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:08,760 Speaker 1: the ball against the Cleveland Browns last season fifty point 588 00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:10,879 Speaker 1: six percent of the time. Last year, how much do 589 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:13,120 Speaker 1: they throw it against the Rams fifty nine point two 590 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:15,160 Speaker 1: percent of the time. That's a pretty big difference. Man, 591 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:18,680 Speaker 1: that's almost a ten percent jump there. That means more opportunities. 592 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 1: I think he is a better supporting cast of edge 593 00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,640 Speaker 1: rushers around Brain Fisk no slouch as well. Byron Young 594 00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:26,919 Speaker 1: has become a really good young player. You know, I 595 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 1: really like the interior of the Browns defensive line. But 596 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 1: how many times do we say on our NFL mock 597 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,399 Speaker 1: draft shows like the Browns need to add another edge 598 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:36,480 Speaker 1: rusher outside of Miles Garrett, cause that's kind of all 599 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 1: they have right there. So Miles Garrett, I think he really, 600 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 1: you know, deserves to be the betting favorite. I will 601 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,159 Speaker 1: definitely have at least a unit, maybe a unit and 602 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 1: a half on this as well. Like I said, I 603 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 1: don't hate sprinkles on TJ. Watt if you want a 604 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 1: twenty seven to one number, if you want to shot 605 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 1: on Max Crosby at twenty to one. However, the big 606 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 1: thing with them to Erickson, they had tend to get 607 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 1: hurt a little bit more than Miles Garrett. This guy's 608 00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,120 Speaker 1: kind of iron man all of a sudden. 609 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 2: I think too, who the injury card also works in 610 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 2: Garrett's favor if Stafford is to get banged up, Right, 611 00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 2: if the Rams are winning games because of their defense, 612 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 2: you know why they're winning games to their defense because 613 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 2: of mister Miles Garretty, probably not Ty Simpson. So I 614 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 2: just to your point, like, really, if you don't want 615 00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 2: to take any of these long shots on defensive player 616 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:24,560 Speaker 2: of the Year, I think the best bet really is 617 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:27,640 Speaker 2: just slocking Miles Garrett. I think the number is good now. 618 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:29,639 Speaker 2: You can bet it in season, you can bet it 619 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 2: before the season. I don't think that this bet is 620 00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 2: going to be dead at any point until we really 621 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 2: get down to because the pedigree with Miles Garrett is 622 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,960 Speaker 2: just so high, just such highly regarded by the voters. 623 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 2: I think that he's gonna be live for this award, 624 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 2: even if he has fewer sacks. He probably will if 625 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 2: you were sacks and he had last and he broke 626 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 2: the sack ricker. But maybe he breaks his own record 627 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:51,639 Speaker 2: again here in twenty twenty six. That being said, I 628 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 2: do have a couple of sprinkles, I would say of 629 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:56,480 Speaker 2: the favorites, but one that like the most that maybe 630 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:58,639 Speaker 2: could challenge Miles Garrett even if he does have a 631 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:01,640 Speaker 2: fantastic year. I think that this could be a career year, 632 00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 2: just for Aid Hutchinson. I think was twenty five years old. He remember, 633 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:07,800 Speaker 2: he's not coming off an injury this year like he 634 00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 2: was a year ago when he was returning from a 635 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 2: season ending injury. That year before he got hurt, he 636 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 2: was my Defensive Player of the Year that I was 637 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,280 Speaker 2: riding hard. I was like, this is the year he's 638 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:18,720 Speaker 2: going to break out, and he was on pace to 639 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:20,879 Speaker 2: win the award. Unfortunately went down with the injury, and 640 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 2: I was just me and everyone in the betting bras discord. 641 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:26,160 Speaker 2: We were absolutely devastated because we were like, dude, this 642 00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 2: is such a lock. We were so good to go. 643 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 2: So I do like hutch to bounce back here. Trey 644 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 2: Hendrickson I think is interesting again. Twenty twenty three, twenty 645 00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:35,920 Speaker 2: twenty four, seventeen and a half plus sacks. Both those 646 00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 2: kind of like a weird year with the Bengals. Last 647 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,920 Speaker 2: year he wasn't really invested in playing new team with 648 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 2: the Baltimore Ravens, new defensive coordinator, head coach Jesse Minter 649 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:46,880 Speaker 2: coming in, you could see Trey Hendrickson having a double 650 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 2: digit sack maybe flirting with eighteen nineteen sacks, because ultimately 651 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:54,000 Speaker 2: that's kind of how we're playing this for our conversation, 652 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 2: it's you got to have a sack rush production, like 653 00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 2: that's what you need to win this award. Micha A. 654 00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:02,720 Speaker 2: Parsons is interesting again to make the Jamar Chase comparison. 655 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 2: Is he never gonna win the Defensive Player Year of 656 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 2: the Award. The injury is what causes me to want 657 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 2: to wait on him potentially. But if you drop him 658 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:13,880 Speaker 2: back and if the Packers defense looks like crap without him, 659 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,560 Speaker 2: they drop him back in and he is ninety ninety 660 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 2: five percent of who he is. Okay, maybe Michael Parson 661 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:21,720 Speaker 2: can make a late run at this, but ultimately my 662 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:25,400 Speaker 2: favorite long shot at sixty to one is josh heinz Allen, 663 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 2: the pass rusher for the Jacksonville Jaguars. Last year, he 664 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:31,080 Speaker 2: was third in pressures per game, but he only had 665 00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:35,360 Speaker 2: ten sacks, second in total pressures. Sixty to one, he 666 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:37,840 Speaker 2: has a seventeen and a half sax season on his resume. 667 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 2: So josh heinz Allen has done and shown that, hey, 668 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:45,440 Speaker 2: I can put a big sack totals. I think that 669 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 2: he is interesting and worth a sprinkle. He was another 670 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:49,520 Speaker 2: player that I liked a couple of years ago when 671 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 2: he had the seventeen and a half sax season. At 672 00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 2: the time, it wasn't enough to overcome the name rans 673 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:57,880 Speaker 2: of TJ Watt, Miles Garrett. But if the Jacksonville Jaguars 674 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 2: can do and launch Trevor Warrant to do an MVP conversation, 675 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 2: people are talking about the Jags as legitimate Super Bowl contenders. 676 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 2: I think josh heines Allen's gonna be big part of 677 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 2: that defense. So at sixty to one, with a player 678 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 2: that I think could maybe leave the NFL in sacks 679 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:15,400 Speaker 2: next year, I like him as a sprinkles a long shot. 680 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 1: Such an underrated player so much that he had to 681 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:19,120 Speaker 1: change his name, just that he. 682 00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 2: Was like, I don't want to be the other Josh 683 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:21,600 Speaker 2: Allen anymore. 684 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:24,040 Speaker 3: So I respect that. 685 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 1: And going back to Miles Garrett and just kind of 686 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:28,840 Speaker 1: put a bow on that too. Ericson, like, I think 687 00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 1: there are ways to get that number up, whether it's 688 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:34,640 Speaker 1: a boost or also like parlaying it right, because there 689 00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 1: are some pretty juicy numbers out there, Like I don't 690 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:39,280 Speaker 1: know who's betting NASCAR this weekend, but we have the 691 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 1: Naval based race out in San Diego. SVG's like minus 692 00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 1: money to win that race if you want to put 693 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 1: him with Miles Garrett. I don't know if he saw 694 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 1: the guy on X over the weekend, Ericson who he 695 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:51,520 Speaker 1: placed a bet in twenty twenty two. It was an 696 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:54,880 Speaker 1: NBA player prop and he parlayed it with I believe 697 00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 1: it was Columbia to win the World Cup this year. 698 00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 1: So it's like a four long, four year long future 699 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 1: this guy was holding. All of a sudden, he's got 700 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 1: like a two hundred and fifty to one ticket on 701 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 1: Columbia to win the World Cup. 702 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 3: So I don't know if you want to go that 703 00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 3: crazy and have an. 704 00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:11,080 Speaker 1: Investment for four years, but certainly some opportunity with the 705 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,720 Speaker 1: World Cup, with NASCAR still going on, with some of 706 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:17,360 Speaker 1: these other one off sporting events. UFC is still having 707 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:19,520 Speaker 1: a couple of big fights left this summer to get 708 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 1: invested with. But just some fun ways I want to 709 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:24,360 Speaker 1: throw out there for Miles Garrett fans to get invested there. 710 00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:26,280 Speaker 3: Love it, love it. 711 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 1: So let's go ahead and let's move into the Offensive 712 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 1: Rookie of the Year category. Tetro McMillan opened at ten 713 00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 1: or eleven to one last year, depending where you got, 714 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 1: he won that award, making it the six straight year 715 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 1: a wide receiver or a quarterback has taken home the hardware. 716 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 1: The betting favorites this year look like this. Jeremiah Love 717 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:46,920 Speaker 1: plus three seventy five, Fernando Mendoza plus four to fifty, 718 00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:48,600 Speaker 1: will see if he gets the Week one start over, 719 00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:51,840 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins, Carnell Tate plus six fifty, Jordan Tyson plus 720 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:54,960 Speaker 1: six fifty, j Darien Price eight to one, mkayle Lemon 721 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 1: twelve to one, Casey Concepts You On at thirty to one, 722 00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 1: and then Carson Beck also at thirty to one, along 723 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:04,320 Speaker 1: with Kenyan Sadik and Antonio Williams at thirty five to one. 724 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 1: So that said ericson, who are your picks this year? 725 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,320 Speaker 1: Your best overall bet, let's start there, and maybe your 726 00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 1: best overall value as well. 727 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:14,400 Speaker 2: In this market, I think that my favorite bet, my 728 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 2: favorite value, is just Fernando Mendoza. I am not buying 729 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 2: this Kirk Cousins. He's going to be the starter for term. 730 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:24,560 Speaker 2: I think that there's a chance that he opens the 731 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:27,000 Speaker 2: season as the starter, but then he turns into Kirk 732 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:29,720 Speaker 2: Cousins and he's not very good because I don't think 733 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 2: that I think his armor shot at this point, coming 734 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 2: off the Achilles injury. I don't think he has even 735 00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:35,960 Speaker 2: more losty on his throes, and I think he's gonna 736 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:38,200 Speaker 2: be hurting the Raiders offense more than helping it. So 737 00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 2: I think it's going to be sooner rather than later 738 00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:43,200 Speaker 2: that we see Fernando Mendoza, and I think he has 739 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:45,760 Speaker 2: a chance to really thrive in this Clint Kubiak offense. 740 00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:49,640 Speaker 2: And to the point of winning this award, you don't 741 00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 2: necessarily have to be a The bar to passes a 742 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 2: quarterback is not significantly high. You just can be an 743 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 2: okay quarterback and whin this you look at the last 744 00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:00,800 Speaker 2: four quarterback will give the year award winners just An Herber, Kyler, Murray, 745 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 2: cej Stroud, Jane Daniels. They combined for a thirty two 746 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:07,720 Speaker 2: to thirty to one record fifty one percent. So I 747 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 2: don't need for Nando Mendoza to go out and make 748 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 2: the Raiders a super Bowl contender, ah even make the playoffs. 749 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:15,760 Speaker 2: He just has to make the Raiders look like a 750 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 2: competent offense, which I think he's going to be more 751 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 2: than capable of doing, especially when we see them incompetent 752 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 2: with Kirk Cousins, who posted his second worst yards per 753 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 2: attempt second works passer rating of his career last year 754 00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 2: with a very low average s depth of target. Because 755 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:32,560 Speaker 2: I don't think he has any more zip on these throws, 756 00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:35,680 Speaker 2: I think Mendoza should be the favorite. I think it's 757 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 2: kind of bonkers that Jeremiah Love on a team that 758 00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 2: we were talking about going owen seventeen on the tail 759 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,960 Speaker 2: this season as a running back. How is he going 760 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:47,600 Speaker 2: to overcome that on the Arizona Cardinals. So I think 761 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 2: that Mendoza the line is like this because there's concerns 762 00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 2: about Kirk Cousins starting well once kirk Cousin's no longer starting, 763 00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:57,600 Speaker 2: I think the odds are going to dramatically shift and 764 00:33:57,600 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 2: Mendoza's going to be even that more of a favorite. 765 00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:03,560 Speaker 2: He could the season six weeks really strong, and he 766 00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 2: could win this award. We saw Tyler Shuck have a 767 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:08,480 Speaker 2: push for this award last year and he didn't even 768 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,440 Speaker 2: play the first half of the season. So to me, 769 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:14,600 Speaker 2: this is get in on some preseason, get onto it 770 00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:17,040 Speaker 2: early when kirk Cousins is announced as the Week one starter, 771 00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:19,600 Speaker 2: and the oded shift, because ultimately it's going to be 772 00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:22,399 Speaker 2: based on not how many games Mendoza plays, but how 773 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:24,560 Speaker 2: well he does play when he does get in there, 774 00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:27,200 Speaker 2: because eventually he's going to play. I don't think there's 775 00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:30,319 Speaker 2: any scenario where he should the entire ye, So even 776 00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:32,440 Speaker 2: if it is a half game sample, I do think 777 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:34,320 Speaker 2: it's going to be more. I think he's going to 778 00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:38,640 Speaker 2: shroud enough to rise above it and win this award, 779 00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:42,080 Speaker 2: especially with the field being Jeremiah Love. Okay, I just 780 00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:43,879 Speaker 2: kind of talked about how this doesn't work for him 781 00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:48,320 Speaker 2: and then the two other receivers, Tate and Tyson. Tyson 782 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 2: might not be the number one target on his team 783 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 2: and Traditionally the receivers when they've won this award, they 784 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:56,680 Speaker 2: lead their team in targets and receiving yards. So I 785 00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:59,240 Speaker 2: do think Tate is the next best bet at seven 786 00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:02,680 Speaker 2: to one. Kind of for now, it's Fanana Mendoza with 787 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:03,360 Speaker 2: me with a bullet. 788 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 1: Okay, super interesting there, because like you are certainly predicting 789 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:09,640 Speaker 1: then if you're going in at this four to one 790 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:11,879 Speaker 1: price tag that he will be the starter by week one, 791 00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 1: and this drops maybe. 792 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:14,200 Speaker 3: Closer to plus two to fifty. 793 00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:16,880 Speaker 1: But if he isn't the starter by week one, maybe 794 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 1: we're getting this closer to five or six to one. 795 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,120 Speaker 1: So you're certainly going to have to pick a direction 796 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 1: of how you think this quarterback competition in Vegas, the 797 00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:26,920 Speaker 1: sin Citias is going to shake out. But you're obviously 798 00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 1: pretty confident that hey might even be Mendoza from the starter. 799 00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:33,399 Speaker 3: If it is isn't, that number might not change much. 800 00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:35,399 Speaker 1: So, Andrew, I want to throw out a couple fun 801 00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:37,640 Speaker 1: ones to you, because I really thought this was a 802 00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:40,640 Speaker 1: fun market to kind of explore and get invested with. 803 00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:43,000 Speaker 3: First one, Casey Conceptsy on thirty to one. 804 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:46,000 Speaker 1: This is just a very versatile player man, like he 805 00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 1: reminds me, My comp was always like a little bit 806 00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:52,160 Speaker 1: Zay Flower esque. And as a rookie in Todd Monkins offense, 807 00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 1: what did Zay Flower do? One hundred and eight targets, 808 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:57,160 Speaker 1: seventy seven receptions, eight hundred and fifty eight yards, five touchdowns. 809 00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:00,160 Speaker 1: And keep in mind, like Conceptsy on ACC Freshman of 810 00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:02,120 Speaker 1: the Year when he was with NC State, so we 811 00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:05,399 Speaker 1: know he can adjust well to higher level competition when 812 00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:07,279 Speaker 1: he went and made the move from high school to 813 00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:09,960 Speaker 1: college and then also he made the jump from ACC 814 00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:11,360 Speaker 1: ball to SEC. 815 00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:13,400 Speaker 3: In his junior year. Goes down there in Texas A 816 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:13,719 Speaker 3: and M. 817 00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:16,320 Speaker 1: What's he do finishes with the lead in the conference 818 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:19,600 Speaker 1: in receiving touchdowns, also second in punt return touchdowns with two. 819 00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:22,760 Speaker 1: So obviously this is a gamble in that Browns quarterback 820 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 1: situation a little bit. We have to make sure that's 821 00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:27,960 Speaker 1: not gonna be absolute trash. But I personally do believe 822 00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 1: in Shador Sanders enough that I think he can make 823 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:33,680 Speaker 1: Conceptsy on at least in contention for this award. I 824 00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:35,839 Speaker 1: just need him to beat out Deshaun Watson early. That's 825 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:37,719 Speaker 1: kind of what my hope is there. I know you're 826 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:39,799 Speaker 1: also someone who kind of likes conceptsy On from a 827 00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:43,360 Speaker 1: fantasy standpoint, so any interest in him here at thirty. 828 00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:46,600 Speaker 2: To one, I think the odds suggest it's worth dabbling 829 00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:50,680 Speaker 2: in a little bit because if he is the receiving leader, 830 00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:54,560 Speaker 2: target leader, well that's one of the boxes we're looking 831 00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:56,680 Speaker 2: to get checked for these rookie receivers to win this award, 832 00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:59,080 Speaker 2: So it's not a stretch to think that conception and 833 00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:01,920 Speaker 2: could leave this team receiving categories. I think we've all 834 00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:03,759 Speaker 2: kind of seen enough of Jerry Judy at this point. 835 00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:07,480 Speaker 2: I know Denzel Boston has been busy during OTA's but 836 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:10,440 Speaker 2: I think with concept she On, if he is the 837 00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 2: Zay Flowers of his offense, he should be the leader 838 00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 2: in targets and receiving arts as a matter of what 839 00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:18,400 Speaker 2: that turns into when it's targets coming from Shdry Sanders 840 00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:20,799 Speaker 2: and Cleveland Browns offense, although maybe it works in their 841 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:22,839 Speaker 2: favor if the defense isn't as good because they don't 842 00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 2: have Miles Garrett. We'll see what the drop off is 843 00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:27,800 Speaker 2: from Garrett to Jared Versu, who's obviously a very dynamic 844 00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:29,959 Speaker 2: player and great player in his own right, obviously younger 845 00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:32,680 Speaker 2: than Miles Garrett. As well, that could help create more 846 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:34,760 Speaker 2: game scripts where it's a lot of volume for concept 847 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:37,080 Speaker 2: she on, So I do think that is worth a sprinkle. 848 00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:39,200 Speaker 2: I do want to note one thing though, when it 849 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:43,719 Speaker 2: comes to this award, they almost always go to players 850 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:47,880 Speaker 2: that are selected inside the top ten. Eight wins have 851 00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:52,160 Speaker 2: been drafted wow top ten picks, so the odds matchless 852 00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:55,759 Speaker 2: because the four favorites it's Mendoza, Love Tate Tyson, those 853 00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 2: guys were all drafted inside the top ten. So it's 854 00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 2: obviously a long shot, but that's why get at thirty 855 00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:00,919 Speaker 2: to one. 856 00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:03,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, And speaking of some long shots, I have two 857 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:07,319 Speaker 1: more for this particular market, and this is specifically for 858 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:11,040 Speaker 1: a cash out opportunity. I got Elijah Surat right now 859 00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:14,000 Speaker 1: at a prediction market plus ninety two to forty five, 860 00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:16,680 Speaker 1: so over ninety two to one. He's down at sixty 861 00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:18,319 Speaker 1: to one at some books, So I love grabbing some 862 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:21,360 Speaker 1: early line value here at that number. And this play 863 00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:23,719 Speaker 1: reminds me like a lot of a Mecha Abuca from 864 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,320 Speaker 1: a year ago Sarat to me. I know he doesn't 865 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:28,799 Speaker 1: have good draft capital all Day three pick, but he 866 00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:31,280 Speaker 1: arguably I think is one of the most pro ready 867 00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:34,520 Speaker 1: wide receivers in this class, I think he has the 868 00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:36,880 Speaker 1: capability to put up good numbers because he's playing with 869 00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:39,920 Speaker 1: a pretty good quarterback in Lamar Jackson, and Sarat led 870 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:42,239 Speaker 1: the country in receiving touchdowns last season and that was 871 00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:44,680 Speaker 1: while being banged up for the middle portion of that too. 872 00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:47,160 Speaker 1: And he's also a great run blocker, so I think 873 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:49,560 Speaker 1: he's gonna get on the field early and often enough 874 00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:52,919 Speaker 1: to make some scoring plays that I think this number 875 00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:54,839 Speaker 1: will eventually move and we have a nice cash out 876 00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:57,080 Speaker 1: waiting for us. And also while we're at at same 877 00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:00,480 Speaker 1: price over ninety two to one here, Eli Stowers similar 878 00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 1: thinking here that I think for a guy who's been 879 00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:06,040 Speaker 1: listed down as low as forty to one as some books, 880 00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:08,400 Speaker 1: to get ninety two to one on some prediction markets 881 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:10,720 Speaker 1: feel really really good for a guy who won the 882 00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:14,840 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five John Mackie Award also set positional records 883 00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:16,880 Speaker 1: for both the vert and the broad jump player. Are 884 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:19,520 Speaker 1: you telling me Nick Sirianni is gonna be happy to 885 00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:21,520 Speaker 1: have this guy in his offense and start deploying him 886 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:23,799 Speaker 1: in different ways. He took a big step up in 887 00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:26,440 Speaker 1: competition from twenty three to twenty four. He moved from 888 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 1: Conference Usa all the way to the SEC and would 889 00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:31,480 Speaker 1: still go on to finish seventh in the conference as 890 00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:35,040 Speaker 1: a senior. In receptions with sixty two, we talked about 891 00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:36,920 Speaker 1: AJ Brown going to the Patriots. Well what does that 892 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:37,760 Speaker 1: mean for the Eagles? 893 00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:39,040 Speaker 3: Now? With him gone? 894 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:41,440 Speaker 1: We have new offensive coordinator Sean Manion. And I know 895 00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:44,040 Speaker 1: a lot of people aren't really excited about another OC 896 00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:46,320 Speaker 1: in Philly, but this is the guy who loves twelve 897 00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:47,040 Speaker 1: man personnel. 898 00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:47,959 Speaker 3: He loves play action. 899 00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:51,439 Speaker 1: So I know Stowers can't block worth a lick right now, 900 00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:53,440 Speaker 1: but I'm not worried about that because they're gonna have 901 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:55,680 Speaker 1: Dallas Goddter in line to free up Stowers to play 902 00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:57,560 Speaker 1: a little more than the slot, to play outside a bit. 903 00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:00,200 Speaker 1: And Stowers is someone I think that you can do 904 00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:02,440 Speaker 1: a bit more in this offense than someone like Davonta 905 00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:05,839 Speaker 1: Smith and McKay lemon. So for me, I just think 906 00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:08,319 Speaker 1: he will be harder to get and keep off the 907 00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:12,360 Speaker 1: field as that year progresses. So again, similar Surat, I 908 00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:14,439 Speaker 1: don't think they win this award, but I think it's 909 00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:17,799 Speaker 1: too long of a number that it should move, and 910 00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:19,840 Speaker 1: I think it's going to present a cash out opportunity 911 00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:22,680 Speaker 1: with again, if you're over on those prediction markets, you 912 00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:25,719 Speaker 1: can actually set like an automatic cash out where if 913 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:28,520 Speaker 1: this value gets this high, it cashes me out automatically. 914 00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:30,480 Speaker 1: So that's kind of the play here, just hoping to 915 00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:34,000 Speaker 1: get maybe a unit or two back of profit here 916 00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:36,360 Speaker 1: with Sarat and Eli Stowers. 917 00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:40,040 Speaker 3: I like it all right, here we go. Let's go 918 00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:41,800 Speaker 3: ahead and keep the show moving. 919 00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:44,520 Speaker 1: But before we do, a reminder that today's show is 920 00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:47,120 Speaker 1: brought to you by our presenting sponsor, ourd. 921 00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:48,640 Speaker 3: Rock Bet, Florida's sportsbook. 922 00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:52,040 Speaker 1: The world's biggest soccer tournament is officially upon us, and 923 00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:55,080 Speaker 1: everyone is watching.

I don't think any of us 972 00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:13,719 Speaker 1: thought would take home this award twenty eight to one, 973 00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:15,240 Speaker 1: So another long shot Rickson. 974 00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:17,399 Speaker 3: We're seeing a trend here for twenty twenty five. 975 00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:20,239 Speaker 1: He was also the first off ball linebacker to win 976 00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:23,760 Speaker 1: the award since Luke Keigley did it in twenty twelve. 977 00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:27,080 Speaker 1: I'm not really counting when we saw Michael Parsons coming 978 00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:28,439 Speaker 1: in the league and he was kind of playing off 979 00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:31,399 Speaker 1: ball and edge a little bit. But the books must 980 00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:34,360 Speaker 1: be thinking that was an outlier because the current listing 981 00:43:34,400 --> 00:43:38,000 Speaker 1: for the odds you shop around Ruben Bain plus three 982 00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:41,799 Speaker 1: thirty five, David Bailey plus five twenty five plus seven 983 00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:44,520 Speaker 1: fifty for Rvel Reaes, eight to one for Sony Styles, 984 00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:47,279 Speaker 1: Caleb Downs plus eight fifty, man Sword de Laine at 985 00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:51,040 Speaker 1: nine to one, and Keim Messidor fifteen to one. Dylan 986 00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:54,040 Speaker 1: Thanneman here at twenty to one, Jacob Rodriguez twenty two 987 00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:57,120 Speaker 1: to one, and C. J. Allen also twenty two to one. 988 00:43:57,440 --> 00:44:00,000 Speaker 1: Andrew Erickson. Where are you going here in the defense 989 00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:03,000 Speaker 1: Rookie of the Year odds. 990 00:44:02,719 --> 00:44:04,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, this one was the one of the toughest ones 991 00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:07,200 Speaker 2: I think on the board from the awards because there's 992 00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:09,720 Speaker 2: a lot of talent coming in from this defensive class, 993 00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:12,000 Speaker 2: right we were talking about all drafts season, top of 994 00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:15,320 Speaker 2: the board. All these guys from Ohio State all super talented. 995 00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:17,440 Speaker 2: So that's kind of where I'm going towards, especially when 996 00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:19,560 Speaker 2: you're considering the odds. So I like Sunny Styles the 997 00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:22,640 Speaker 2: most here plus eight hundred plus eight to fifty a 998 00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:26,680 Speaker 2: couple different spots, So I get that this award usually 999 00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:29,320 Speaker 2: goes to pass rushers, just like the Defensive Player of 1000 00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:31,840 Speaker 2: the Year award. Sunny Styles I think can't offer that 1001 00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:35,040 Speaker 2: a little bit. I think that what he showed at 1002 00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:38,279 Speaker 2: the NFL Combine, he can do it all right. He 1003 00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:41,080 Speaker 2: is a do it all linebacker in the best sense 1004 00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:43,000 Speaker 2: of the term. I think he can rush the passer. 1005 00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:44,480 Speaker 2: I think that he can win and coverage, and he 1006 00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:47,000 Speaker 2: can obviously rack up tackles. So when you look at 1007 00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:49,480 Speaker 2: the Commander's defense that is completely devoid of talent, has 1008 00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:52,160 Speaker 2: been very, very bad the last couple of seasons, if 1009 00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:54,960 Speaker 2: he immediately gets dropped into there and helps this defense 1010 00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:57,920 Speaker 2: improve to just average, I think you can get a 1011 00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:01,399 Speaker 2: lot of the credit for their turnaround. So that's kind 1012 00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:03,400 Speaker 2: of how I'm viewing the situation. I think that he 1013 00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:06,279 Speaker 2: fits perfectly into dan quinn defense. I think it really 1014 00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:09,640 Speaker 2: works well that the new JISA defensive coordator, Deronte Jones, 1015 00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:12,719 Speaker 2: He's coming over from spending time in Minnesota. Where what 1016 00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:17,280 Speaker 2: do they love doing in Minnesota? These hybrid blitz looks where? Okay, 1017 00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:19,480 Speaker 2: I think Sonny Styles, even if he is deployed as 1018 00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:21,600 Speaker 2: an off the ball linebacker, I think he's gonna have 1019 00:45:21,640 --> 00:45:24,480 Speaker 2: opportunities to get after the quarterback in certain blitz packages. 1020 00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:26,520 Speaker 2: So I think he will have a chance to maybe 1021 00:45:26,520 --> 00:45:29,080 Speaker 2: get some interceptions here and there, maybe get a sack 1022 00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:32,120 Speaker 2: or two, a force fumble here or there, create turnovers, 1023 00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:35,560 Speaker 2: and really get into the voters' minds of oh yeah, 1024 00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:38,200 Speaker 2: Sonny Styles is the reason why the Commander's defense isn't 1025 00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:39,320 Speaker 2: terrible this season. 1026 00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:39,799 Speaker 3: Yea. 1027 00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:42,479 Speaker 2: He has been a big impactful player as a top 1028 00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:45,839 Speaker 2: ten defensive drafted pick. So that's I think the reason 1029 00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:47,759 Speaker 2: why I'm kind of gravitating towards him a lot of 1030 00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:50,560 Speaker 2: Fred Warner komps. Adam Peters is obviously the GM of 1031 00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:52,920 Speaker 2: the Washington Commanders. He comes from the forty nine ers. 1032 00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:55,200 Speaker 2: They drafted Fred Warner, who obviously has had a lot 1033 00:45:55,200 --> 00:45:56,880 Speaker 2: of success at the NFL level as one of the 1034 00:45:56,880 --> 00:46:00,040 Speaker 2: best linebackers in the league. So I do think that 1035 00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:03,080 Speaker 2: when it comes to the favorites, Sunny Styles is the 1036 00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:05,839 Speaker 2: guy that I gravitate. The gravitate towards the most. 1037 00:46:06,320 --> 00:46:08,160 Speaker 1: Okay, and let's go down the board a little bit 1038 00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:10,839 Speaker 1: for your best overall value and got a little another 1039 00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:12,200 Speaker 1: squad ride for the. 1040 00:46:12,160 --> 00:46:18,040 Speaker 2: Fam Jacob Rodriguez, linebacker for the Miami Dolphins. So I 1041 00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:20,520 Speaker 2: tease this before behind the scenes with Seth about I 1042 00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:24,200 Speaker 2: had a couple of fun facts. You brought up Carson Swassinger, right, So, yes, 1043 00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:27,759 Speaker 2: he was now the fourth winner of this award to 1044 00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:30,600 Speaker 2: be drafted outside the first round. All those guys that 1045 00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:32,760 Speaker 2: have won this award that were not first round picks 1046 00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:35,720 Speaker 2: were all second round drafted linebackers. 1047 00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:38,520 Speaker 3: Oh wow, Okay, this. 1048 00:46:38,600 --> 00:46:40,920 Speaker 2: Is exactly the archetype that you're looking for when it's like, 1049 00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:42,640 Speaker 2: all right, if I'm not going to pick someone that 1050 00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:45,759 Speaker 2: was drafted in the first round, because this award more 1051 00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:48,319 Speaker 2: often than like very very very high rate of going 1052 00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:50,399 Speaker 2: in the first round picks. Obviously, it didn't happen last 1053 00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:52,520 Speaker 2: year with with Swessenger being you know, the first or 1054 00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:56,320 Speaker 2: second pick. I don't remember. Of Day two, all of 1055 00:46:56,360 --> 00:46:58,600 Speaker 2: them are also picked inside the top forty. So there 1056 00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:00,800 Speaker 2: has not been a defensive rookie of the drafted outside 1057 00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:04,320 Speaker 2: the top forty overall picks since Eric McMillan of the 1058 00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:07,880 Speaker 2: Jets in nineteen eighty eight. He was picked sixty three overall. 1059 00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:12,240 Speaker 2: So unfortunately, Jacob Rodriguez was not drafted inside the top forty. 1060 00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:14,920 Speaker 2: He was drafted forty third overall. So maybe we're just 1061 00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:17,239 Speaker 2: kind of get again. These numbers can maybe be a 1062 00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:21,040 Speaker 2: little bit arbitrary, So forty third forty, it's still pretty close. 1063 00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:23,759 Speaker 2: I'm not sure why this was your angle, but for me, 1064 00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:27,680 Speaker 2: it's Dolphins are gonna be facing the most negative game 1065 00:47:27,719 --> 00:47:30,280 Speaker 2: scripts yes, in terms of teams are gonna be running 1066 00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:33,960 Speaker 2: all over them. And the guy that Mike Clay currently 1067 00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:36,960 Speaker 2: has projected to leave the NFL and tackles Jordan Brooks, 1068 00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:40,279 Speaker 2: that guy might get traded. So if he's gone from 1069 00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:43,399 Speaker 2: this team, Jacob Rodriguez think gets insert into that role 1070 00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:46,200 Speaker 2: where he can leave the NFL in tackles or from 1071 00:47:46,239 --> 00:47:48,120 Speaker 2: the time of him becoming the starter in the offense 1072 00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:51,040 Speaker 2: raps up just tackle after tackle. I think that's where 1073 00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:53,520 Speaker 2: you kind of come to oh near twenty two to 1074 00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:55,280 Speaker 2: one odds for him to win, and he just basically 1075 00:47:55,360 --> 00:47:58,600 Speaker 2: follows the Swessenger path. I could see it happening. 1076 00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:01,240 Speaker 1: Well, And that's exactly why I'm down here at twenty 1077 00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:04,200 Speaker 1: five to one as well with you, because, like j 1078 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:06,319 Speaker 1: Rod to me is two things. 1079 00:48:06,360 --> 00:48:06,520 Speaker 3: One. 1080 00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:08,600 Speaker 1: I think he's a really unique player, right. This is 1081 00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:11,279 Speaker 1: the guy who began his collegiate career at quarterback, ends 1082 00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:13,640 Speaker 1: up converting to linebacker when he gets to Lubbock, and 1083 00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:16,040 Speaker 1: then goes on to post back to back seasons one 1084 00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:19,320 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty seven plus combined tackles, ten and a 1085 00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:21,880 Speaker 1: half plus tackles for lost, didn't have a ton of 1086 00:48:21,960 --> 00:48:25,440 Speaker 1: sacks last year, but still was able to lead this 1087 00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:29,200 Speaker 1: team to a Big twelve championship in Texas. Tech therefore 1088 00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:32,080 Speaker 1: finished fifth in the Heisman voting seventeen first place votes. 1089 00:48:32,120 --> 00:48:35,080 Speaker 1: So obviously the media at the collegiate level loves him 1090 00:48:35,080 --> 00:48:37,040 Speaker 1: and like this dude won every hon and he could 1091 00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:39,640 Speaker 1: man consensus All American Big Twelve Defensive Player of the Year, 1092 00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:43,600 Speaker 1: Dick Buckkiss Award winner, Vince Lombardi Award winner, And I think, 1093 00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:46,759 Speaker 1: like you said it, Man Malik Willis. I think he's 1094 00:48:46,800 --> 00:48:49,080 Speaker 1: gonna struggle down there, right, Like he only has what 1095 00:48:49,160 --> 00:48:53,080 Speaker 1: Malik Washington, Chris Bell just kind of a couple guys 1096 00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:55,440 Speaker 1: out there, right, And like I think, Jeff. 1097 00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:57,080 Speaker 2: How would you dare forget Greg Dolsic? 1098 00:48:57,840 --> 00:49:00,719 Speaker 1: Okay, geez, if I was gonna forget any well, I 1099 00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:04,280 Speaker 1: think it should have been Greg Dolsich. But like Jeff Halfley, 1100 00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:06,200 Speaker 1: you look what he did in Green Bay the last 1101 00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:08,640 Speaker 1: couple of years after you coming from Boston College as 1102 00:49:08,640 --> 00:49:11,759 Speaker 1: their head coach Kuai Walker, which kind of a I 1103 00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:14,960 Speaker 1: want to say, an underwhelming prospect after he was picked 1104 00:49:14,960 --> 00:49:17,600 Speaker 1: pretty early by the Packers. He made him into a really, 1105 00:49:17,640 --> 00:49:20,080 Speaker 1: really good player. So I think Jay rod right now 1106 00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:22,239 Speaker 1: firmly in the mix at twenty two to one. I 1107 00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:24,799 Speaker 1: think it's the same type of situation. He's gonna rack 1108 00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:27,960 Speaker 1: up stats again. Brooks going out of the building would 1109 00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:31,239 Speaker 1: certainly help this as well. But yeah, I love Jacob Rodriguez. 1110 00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:33,640 Speaker 1: This is my favorite bet on the board for all 1111 00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:35,920 Speaker 1: the awards. We've talked about twenty five to one. Shop 1112 00:49:35,960 --> 00:49:37,920 Speaker 1: that around, but I think it's a great number on 1113 00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:38,640 Speaker 1: the kid right now. 1114 00:49:39,320 --> 00:49:41,319 Speaker 2: The only other one I wanted to add in here 1115 00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:43,000 Speaker 2: is put in the show sheet, but it was one 1116 00:49:43,040 --> 00:49:45,080 Speaker 2: that I was like perusing as I'm looking at some 1117 00:49:45,080 --> 00:49:48,240 Speaker 2: of these defensive players, a lot of edge rush talent 1118 00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:50,279 Speaker 2: at the top. The one guy that I thought was 1119 00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:54,480 Speaker 2: kind of interesting, If this Dallas Cowboys defense can just 1120 00:49:55,880 --> 00:49:59,000 Speaker 2: flip just fliphead in terms of yeah, it's gonna be 1121 00:49:59,040 --> 00:50:02,319 Speaker 2: so much better, they go from bottom league defense to 1122 00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:04,560 Speaker 2: one of the top defenses in the NFL. I think 1123 00:50:04,600 --> 00:50:05,960 Speaker 2: last year we saw a little bit of a change 1124 00:50:05,960 --> 00:50:08,160 Speaker 2: with Quinton Williams. They had one of the highest pressu 1125 00:50:08,239 --> 00:50:10,000 Speaker 2: rates in the NFL last year, but they didn't generate 1126 00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:12,640 Speaker 2: a lot of sacks. What if Malachai Lawrence just comes 1127 00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:15,680 Speaker 2: in and just clean up right, Like, there are so 1128 00:50:15,719 --> 00:50:17,560 Speaker 2: many other guys on that defensive line that teams are 1129 00:50:17,600 --> 00:50:19,560 Speaker 2: accounting for, and Lawrence just comes in as a passers 1130 00:50:19,640 --> 00:50:24,359 Speaker 2: specialist and just immediately drops fifteen sacks. Sixteen sacks. That 1131 00:50:24,360 --> 00:50:26,720 Speaker 2: could be a scenario where he has a path twenty 1132 00:50:26,760 --> 00:50:29,120 Speaker 2: five to one. I like Dallas on paper a lot. 1133 00:50:29,160 --> 00:50:31,360 Speaker 2: Their office should be looking, they should be playing with leads, 1134 00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:34,040 Speaker 2: and I think that gives a guy like Malachai Lawrence 1135 00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:37,919 Speaker 2: some opportunities to generate sacks, which we know helps drive 1136 00:50:37,960 --> 00:50:39,600 Speaker 2: the winner of this award a lot of the time, 1137 00:50:39,640 --> 00:50:41,920 Speaker 2: So if it isn't one of these linebackers again, it 1138 00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:44,520 Speaker 2: usually goes to an edge rusher Malachai Lawrence at twenty 1139 00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:46,759 Speaker 2: five to one as the Dallas Cowboys first round pick. 1140 00:50:46,760 --> 00:50:50,520 Speaker 2: Their other first round pick, I think would be pretty noteworthy. 1141 00:50:51,040 --> 00:50:52,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't hate it at all. I was even 1142 00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:54,960 Speaker 1: looking at Caleb Downs for kind of similar reasons. I 1143 00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:57,920 Speaker 1: think the Cowboys defense can improve mightily, and we know 1144 00:50:57,960 --> 00:51:00,279 Speaker 1: they're going to be in primetime all the time. That's 1145 00:51:00,320 --> 00:51:03,560 Speaker 1: really gonna help both Downs and Lawrence. The thing about 1146 00:51:03,600 --> 00:51:06,319 Speaker 1: Downs is like you look at the last couple of years, 1147 00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:10,160 Speaker 1: whether it was Captain Jack or whether it was and 1148 00:51:10,239 --> 00:51:12,839 Speaker 1: any of these guys really on that defense rvel ries 1149 00:51:12,880 --> 00:51:15,880 Speaker 1: sony styles like Caleb Downs is the one they played through. 1150 00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:18,880 Speaker 1: And the issue I guess though, just like from betting 1151 00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:20,680 Speaker 1: him for this award at plus eight fifty, is like 1152 00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:23,160 Speaker 1: safeties don't really win this award, right, This usually isn't 1153 00:51:23,160 --> 00:51:25,319 Speaker 1: a safety award, So I think it'd be really hard 1154 00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:27,680 Speaker 1: for Caleb Downs to potentially break through. But I do 1155 00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:30,280 Speaker 1: think he is arguably still one of the best players 1156 00:51:30,320 --> 00:51:33,000 Speaker 1: in this draft. Class that the Dallas Cowboys gotten absolutely 1157 00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:35,480 Speaker 1: steal at, which just breaks my heart because I've always 1158 00:51:35,520 --> 00:51:38,680 Speaker 1: loved Caleb Downs from this time at Alabama, leaves Alabama, 1159 00:51:38,840 --> 00:51:40,680 Speaker 1: then goes to Ohio State, so I can't really root 1160 00:51:40,719 --> 00:51:42,560 Speaker 1: for him there, and now he's with the Cowboys, and 1161 00:51:42,600 --> 00:51:44,399 Speaker 1: I'm not like one of those old school Steelers fans 1162 00:51:44,400 --> 00:51:46,879 Speaker 1: hating the Cowboys, but like I don't particularly root for them, 1163 00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:49,640 Speaker 1: So maybe that's one way I could root for him, though, 1164 00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:51,080 Speaker 1: is get in there at plus eight fifty. 1165 00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:52,840 Speaker 3: But eric'son great stuff overall. 1166 00:51:52,920 --> 00:51:54,440 Speaker 1: Man, Let's go ahead and get out of here with 1167 00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:56,640 Speaker 1: your best bets for the award markets. If you were 1168 00:51:56,680 --> 00:51:59,520 Speaker 1: in an alternate universe and the aliens came down, they said, hey, 1169 00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:06,040 Speaker 1: you and the entire world's life depends on three plays 1170 00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:09,319 Speaker 1: hitting here in this market. What are those three best 1171 00:52:09,400 --> 00:52:11,759 Speaker 1: bets for you? Andrew Erickson? Keep the aliens away. 1172 00:52:12,040 --> 00:52:13,880 Speaker 2: When you frame it like that, I'm actually gonna probably 1173 00:52:13,920 --> 00:52:17,719 Speaker 2: make a quite change to the show Shook, because look, 1174 00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:19,840 Speaker 2: we talked way too much about Miles Garrett in a 1175 00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:22,160 Speaker 2: positive light for me not to include him here. We're 1176 00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:25,160 Speaker 2: talking about aliens and freaks. Miles Garrett is number one 1177 00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:28,360 Speaker 2: on the list, so Miles Garrett to repeat as defensive 1178 00:52:28,360 --> 00:52:31,080 Speaker 2: player here that I'll be my first bet for Nanda 1179 00:52:31,120 --> 00:52:33,560 Speaker 2: Mendoza to win Offensive Rookie of the Year. I think 1180 00:52:33,560 --> 00:52:36,640 Speaker 2: it's miss priced four to one. He was taking number 1181 00:52:36,640 --> 00:52:39,680 Speaker 2: one overall, number one overall picking the draft number one quarterback. 1182 00:52:39,680 --> 00:52:43,120 Speaker 2: It's a quarterback driven award more years than not. Don't 1183 00:52:43,120 --> 00:52:47,280 Speaker 2: overthink it. Fade Kirk Cousins to oblivion, fade the Coles cash, 1184 00:52:47,719 --> 00:52:49,880 Speaker 2: give me use all your Coles cash on Mendoza to 1185 00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:53,080 Speaker 2: win Offensive Rookie of the Year, and then we'll round 1186 00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:55,120 Speaker 2: it out with Justin Herbert to win MVP at eleven 1187 00:52:55,160 --> 00:52:57,320 Speaker 2: to one, and then as a fourth one brock Powers 1188 00:52:57,719 --> 00:52:59,600 Speaker 2: eighty to one. But like that one's for fun again. 1189 00:52:59,800 --> 00:53:03,120 Speaker 2: Can't put the life yeah Earth on the line at 1190 00:53:03,239 --> 00:53:05,920 Speaker 2: eighty to one, bet that would not be appropriate. 1191 00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:09,680 Speaker 1: But hey, hey, if you cash out, maybe that's like 1192 00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:12,239 Speaker 1: enough form you get a positive cash out, maybe they'll 1193 00:53:12,239 --> 00:53:12,960 Speaker 1: go ahead and leave us. 1194 00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:14,879 Speaker 3: Say hey, these guys know what they're talking about. They're 1195 00:53:14,880 --> 00:53:16,320 Speaker 3: just singing a hot bat here in the future. 1196 00:53:16,440 --> 00:53:18,160 Speaker 2: And I mean, when we're talking about freaks, I gotta 1197 00:53:18,200 --> 00:53:21,040 Speaker 2: show the aliens rock Bowers. You do you gotta see 1198 00:53:21,080 --> 00:53:22,120 Speaker 2: this guy. He's pretty good. 1199 00:53:22,640 --> 00:53:25,080 Speaker 1: Just keep a hat on him. Don't show them the hairline. 1200 00:53:25,120 --> 00:53:27,680 Speaker 1: That's all I ask is, don't show them. I think 1201 00:53:27,760 --> 00:53:30,200 Speaker 1: soon enough, I don't know. Hopefully you and I don't 1202 00:53:30,239 --> 00:53:33,520 Speaker 1: reach these points. But one of my groomsmen in my wedding, 1203 00:53:33,800 --> 00:53:37,359 Speaker 1: he's made the recent decision just to go bald and 1204 00:53:37,440 --> 00:53:39,040 Speaker 1: rock the beard, and it's a great look. 1205 00:53:39,400 --> 00:53:40,120 Speaker 3: Rock Bowers. 1206 00:53:40,480 --> 00:53:43,120 Speaker 1: Get invested with that, my friend, because I certainly think 1207 00:53:43,160 --> 00:53:45,759 Speaker 1: that's where like, don't hang on until you can't hang 1208 00:53:45,800 --> 00:53:46,360 Speaker 1: on anymore. 1209 00:53:46,400 --> 00:53:47,319 Speaker 3: Man, don't do that. 1210 00:53:48,040 --> 00:53:49,719 Speaker 1: But Eric said, I'm gonna keep hanging on to you 1211 00:53:49,719 --> 00:53:52,440 Speaker 1: because you have all the great betting insight here for us, 1212 00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:54,239 Speaker 1: and you're gonna have that all season long.
