Like how does connected were you? 42 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 1: I mean I saw people talking about Travis Hunter a lot, 43 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 1: and you know I was. I was at least checking 44 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:11,639 Speaker 1: in on that stuff. But no, I mean I was 45 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:15,519 Speaker 1: pretty disconnected. I didn't I don't think I missed many 46 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 1: picks and slow best ball drafts that I was in, 47 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 1: but you know, I was able to at least, you know, 48 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:23,519 Speaker 1: detach from from the world. But I also see a 49 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:25,640 Speaker 1: comment says, well, we all know who the golden child is. 50 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 2: Guys, that's not what I mean.

Threes are way way more difficult than twos. 58 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 1: Threes are insane because they can talk back to you 59 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:51,800 Speaker 1: and say. 60 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 3: Stuff and throw stuff and do stuff.

But we've got 113 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: a lot of feedback about the new scoring system for 114 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 1: the app's the zapp model and how the scaling changed. 115 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: You know. I talked about that on a mail bag 116 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 1: episode and I think the last one that I did, 117 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 1: And so I've got a lot of feedback, more than 118 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 1: I expected. Usually I can predict like what kind of 119 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 1: feedback I'll get, and I'm like, Okay, I can do this. 120 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,280 Speaker 1: I know I'm going to get some people in some responses, 121 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:25,839 Speaker 1: but it's going to be okay because I can just 122 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 1: forward them to kitchen. 123 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 2: I'm just kidding because because. 124 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:31,040 Speaker 1: How you know, we'll be able to handle it. This 125 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 1: one was even more than I expected, to be honest. 126 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:37,920 Speaker 1: So basically the zapp model scaling changed and now you're 127 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: seeing better, in my opinion, a better representation of the 128 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 1: differential between one prospect to another, whereas before it was 129 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 1: more based on percentiles and such, and so I changed 130 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: it this year to have that scaling be better. And 131 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 1: a lot of people are saying, well, I want to 132 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 1: compare these prospects to prospects and other guides and such, 133 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 1: which I get. You know, it's not it's not actionable truly, 134 00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 1: because we already have seen these guys play in the NFL, 135 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 1: and like especially guys that you know from the first 136 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 1: iteration of the prospect guy there, those scores are irrelevant. 137 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 1: Not only has a model change, but those players have 138 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 1: played in the NFL for four years, right, So it's 139 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:13,159 Speaker 1: just it's. 140 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:14,040 Speaker 2: Just not that relevant. 141 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 1: But from just a content and curiosity standpoint, I get it. 142 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 1: I get that you want to sort of compare where 143 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:22,720 Speaker 1: you know, Malik Neighbors was compared to some of these guys, 144 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:24,839 Speaker 1: like to Jordan Tyson or what have you. 145 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 2: And by the way, Milik Neighbors is like. 146 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 1: It's still a lot better just because he was such 147 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 1: an elite prospect. But what I did was I created 148 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 1: a table that shows the old scores, so one hundred 149 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 1: ninety five, ninety eighty five. 150 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 2: I actually posted this in the Discord this week, but. 151 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 1: It'll be in the and then it will show the 152 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 1: ZAPP two point zero score and like what the equivalent 153 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,599 Speaker 1: kind of is. So I will have that in the 154 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:51,600 Speaker 1: post draft version of the guide. 155 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 2: It will be there. It'll be at the end of 156 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 2: the guide.

All right. We're gonna start with I 213 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 3: have a Hunter, because other than reporter coaching relationships, that 214 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:10,680 Speaker 3: probably is the biggest news item from the past week. 215 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 3: You had a report coming out. Of course, we've heard 216 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,839 Speaker 3: some of the ruminations. 217 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 1: This is what's driving me nuts. Can I just yell 218 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:20,359 Speaker 1: about this for a second. 219 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,080 Speaker 3: Yeh, yeah, yeah, yeah, you don't have to yell, but 220 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 3: like a passionate response would be great. 221 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,200 Speaker 2: So I saw this was I was on the beach 222 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 2: when all this was going on. 223 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 1: This is when I was scrolling Twitter and I saw 224 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 1: stuff pop up rap sheet reference that Travis Hunter was 225 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:36,560 Speaker 1: gonna play more corner and not play much, you know, 226 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 1: like there was a special package kind of takeaway that 227 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 1: people were having from whatever. Rap sheet wasn't reporting anything new, 228 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 1: you guys, this is not a new report. 229 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 2: He was referencing I think a Colleen. 230 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:52,439 Speaker 1: Wolf report from early from like a month and a 231 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 1: half ago, which, by the way, if you go back 232 00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 1: and you listen to the Cell Candidates episode of the 233 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 1: Late Round, on that episode, I talked about selling Travis 234 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 1: Hunter because I thought that he was overrated in dynasty. 235 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 1: His his you know, I don't want to take a 236 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,319 Speaker 1: w because you know, it's very early for that. But 237 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 1: his value has changed, right, It's dropped from where we 238 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 1: were in January to where we are now. 239 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 2: So I feel good about that. 240 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:23,119 Speaker 1: Feel bad about how I was subjective with my evaluation 241 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 1: of him last year. I'm really mad about that that 242 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 1: I didn't just like you know that I was. I 243 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: was making so many excuses for Travis Hunter last year. 244 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 1: From a prospecting perspective, I think the model nailed Travis Hunter, 245 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 1: to be honest, but I'll regardless of that. This report 246 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 1: has been out there in different ways since January, and 247 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 1: we're recycling this thing, and for whatever reason, when rap 248 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:49,559 Speaker 1: Sheet says it on. 249 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 2: NFL Network, now everyone's running with it and. 250 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:54,960 Speaker 1: It's this big thing that people are reacting to in 251 00:11:55,000 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: fantasy football and everything. Guys, in these scenarios, in these situations, 252 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:01,960 Speaker 1: this is exactly when you should go in the opposite 253 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 1: direction what the market is doing. Right where if you 254 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 1: see a really massive discount now on Travis Hunter, that's 255 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 1: when you pounce and you you know, shoot off a 256 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 1: random you know, mid second rounder or something for him, 257 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:15,840 Speaker 1: because we know that there's not gonna be that much value, 258 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 1: especially in this draft and rookie drafts this year, and 259 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 1: just see what happens and start that conversation throwing another 260 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:24,680 Speaker 1: random veteran or something to try to acquire Travis Hunter. 261 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 1: Because look, I even on that show I talked about how, yes, 262 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 1: I do think that Hunter's injury last year is a 263 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 1: key driving point as to why all of this is 264 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,959 Speaker 1: happening right now. Because he gets injured, they trade for 265 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 1: Jacoby Myers, Parker Washington emerges, and now all of a sudden, 266 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,319 Speaker 1: you look at their top three wide receivers and you're like, yeah, 267 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 1: this really works in eleven personnel and three wide receiver sets. 268 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,200 Speaker 2: You got a great slot in Parker Washington. 269 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 1: You have Jacoby Myers who can move inside out, and 270 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 1: you have Brian Thomas who can stretch the field and 271 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 1: play on the perimeter and play that role. 272 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 2: So like, those three wide receivers work really well for 273 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 2: an offense. But here's the thing. Guys get hurt. 274 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,720 Speaker 1: Things change, Just like things changed in an instant with 275 00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 1: Travis Hunter last year when he got injured, he was 276 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 1: about to emerge as the guy in that offense. 277 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 2: It was very evident that it was about to happen. 278 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 3: And garbage time fourth quarter when he caught all those 279 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 3: rams again peppered with passes. 280 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:21,679 Speaker 1: And so look, I think that Hunter is talented and good, 281 00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,720 Speaker 1: and you know, is he like elite elite like his 282 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 1: you can look at the prospect guy in the year 283 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 1: two stuff like, I don't think that he looks that 284 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 1: incredible from an advanced analytics standpoint in what he did 285 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,959 Speaker 1: last year, because part of the thesis with him is that, oh, 286 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:36,560 Speaker 1: even if it's limited, you know, even if his offensive 287 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 1: snaps are limited, he'll probably have a really high targets 288 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 1: per route run rate and like. 289 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:41,319 Speaker 2: At blah blah blah blah blah. 290 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: And in hindsight, it's like, we should have definitely just 291 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:46,440 Speaker 1: ignored a lot of that and just gone with That's 292 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:48,680 Speaker 1: why I'm a little bit frustrated with the process that 293 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,080 Speaker 1: I took. I got a little bit scared to be like, 294 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 1: because if you go back and listen to some of 295 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:55,719 Speaker 1: the shows last year, I'm like, his analytical profiles a 296 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,200 Speaker 1: little bit iffy, like there's a lot of question marks here. 297 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:00,320 Speaker 1: But then I'm like okay, but he was in the 298 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 1: rooms with the wide receivers learning the offense, and he 299 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 1: wasn't getting the same amount of reps. 300 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 2: And you know, anytime he started. 301 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:08,760 Speaker 1: Making excuses for players, it's a bad thing for prospects. 302 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,400 Speaker 1: Regardless of all of that, now we're in this position 303 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 1: where his value has tanked because of a report that 304 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 1: is not even new, and it's crazy to me. So 305 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 1: if you can get him really cheap right now, I'm 306 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 1: fine with that. Because he even came out himself and 307 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 1: was like, Hey, who told you this? You know on 308 00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 1: Twitter and whatnot. 309 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,200 Speaker 3: That's exactly what he said. He reposted a clip and said, 310 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:30,920 Speaker 3: who told you this? And I'm just going to give 311 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 3: you the ADP right now. Of the four receivers on DraftKings, 312 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 3: Parker Washington at sixty one, Brian Thomas Junior seventy four, yeah, 313 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 3: Jacoby Meyers ninety seven, Travis Hunter way over at one 314 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 3: sixty four. So even if you're avoiding him in your 315 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 3: best Ball or in your redrafts for Dynasty and Best Ball, 316 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 3: like you said, it's he might not be a bad 317 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 3: stab to take. 318 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think. 319 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 1: I think in season long he's not someone I'm gonna 320 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 1: be really that interested because you have to you have 321 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 1: to just like carry. 322 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:07,680 Speaker 2: That weight around. 323 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 3: And I've already told us to avoid him. 324 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, like yeah, I just it's a really really tough 325 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 1: kind of player to buy into, right, But look, an 326 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 1: injury happens and all of a sudden, he's probably more 327 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 1: of an eighty percent kind of player on offense, right, 328 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:22,280 Speaker 1: even if he's like a fifty percent or forty percent 329 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 1: or something to start the season, one injury changes everything. 330 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 1: He can line up everywhere like he's a he's a 331 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 1: really capable wide receiver. So that's where I'm at with 332 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 1: Travis Hunter. Maybe it's not a super strong stance, but 333 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:33,720 Speaker 1: my stance is that feel good about how I felt 334 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 1: about him in January, and it hasn't really changed because 335 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 1: the reporting hasn't really changed. The only thing that's changed 336 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 1: is the way that people are interpreting the reporting. So 337 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:45,200 Speaker 1: keep that in mind whenever you hear these reports and 338 00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 1: hear all that happen. 339 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 3: Okay, let's transition to the Eagles passing it to I 340 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 3: just I separated this because there was a trade. Dontavian 341 00:15:55,960 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 3: Wicks goes to the Eagles, So this opens up an 342 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 3: interesting situation in Green Bay. But also we got to 343 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 3: talk about this Eagles passing attack. Let's just assume we'll 344 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 3: talk about the A. J. Brown thing and say, let's 345 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 3: just assume that they're lying and the AJ Brown's not 346 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 3: gonna be with the team on June first, JJ, what 347 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 3: does this Eagles passing attack look like now? With Dotavian 348 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 3: Wicks as a potential wide receiver too. 349 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,680 Speaker 2: I've liked Wix. I mean, like it's not really a 350 00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 2: secret if you listen to the show. 351 00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 1: I think that Wix is a pretty good wide receiver, 352 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 1: and so I think that he's capable of being there too. 353 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 1: DeVante Smith, though I've also been I feel like I 354 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 1: have DeVante Smith as a target and fantasy every year. 355 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 1: But I'm a big DeVante Smith fan. I thought he 356 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 1: was a really good prospect. I think that he's more 357 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 1: than capable of making somewhat of a leap, you know. 358 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 1: I know that he's a little bit further in his career. Yeah, 359 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 1: I've seen like the JSN, like he can do a 360 00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:50,800 Speaker 1: JSN did. Jayson's not in the same part of his 361 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 1: career because you know where DeVante Smith is. But I 362 00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 1: think that Smith is very capable of being a twenty 363 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 1: eight percent target chair play. He's done that when when 364 00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 1: one of AJ Brown and Dallas got her been out. 365 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 1: I mean, we've seen that happen with DeVante Smith, so 366 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:06,359 Speaker 1: very bullish on Davonte Smith. It sounds like this is 367 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,639 Speaker 1: like like when have we ever heard rumors this strong 368 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:12,159 Speaker 1: that doesn't end up happening? You know, it does feel 369 00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 1: like this is almost definitely a J. 370 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 2: Brown is going to be a patriot. And I had 371 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:18,920 Speaker 2: talked about this on a Mailbag episode about AJ Brown. 372 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 1: You know, is it an upgrade? Yeah, I'd probably say 373 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:23,800 Speaker 1: it's an upgrade overall. But my fear is that people 374 00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:25,679 Speaker 1: are gonna take it a little bit too far, you know, 375 00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 1: that that there's just gonna be a little bit too 376 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 1: much AJ Brown steam by the time August comes around, 377 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:33,000 Speaker 1: and that might scare me off a little bit. I'm 378 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,200 Speaker 1: just gonna say I'm at market, you know, with with Brown. 379 00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 1: I kind of alluded to that back on that show. 380 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:41,040 Speaker 1: But I'm excited for DeVante Smith. I'm excited for Dantavian Wix. 381 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 1: I got a lot of Dantavian Wicks and Dynasty that 382 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:46,880 Speaker 1: I'm that I'm pumped about. And then on the Packers side. 383 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:50,200 Speaker 1: You know, since we're talking about it, we now have 384 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:53,119 Speaker 1: you know, the biggest problem with the Packers is their rotation. 385 00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:54,240 Speaker 1: It's always been the rotation. 386 00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 3: Uh. 387 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 1: And now we have a very clear three in Christian Watson, 388 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 1: who I've actually taken a decent amount of early on 389 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:05,400 Speaker 1: in these Best Ball drafts. Christian Watson, Jaden Reid, who 390 00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:07,399 Speaker 1: I also have taken a lot of in the Matthew Golden, 391 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 1: who I've not taken a lot of, but we'll see. 392 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 1: Like I'm keeping an open mind about Matthew Golden, I 393 00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:14,640 Speaker 1: know that I've been more on the cell side than 394 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 1: the byside for sure with Golden, because very rarely do 395 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 1: we see this is just a probability driven thing. Very 396 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:22,440 Speaker 1: rarely do we see a prospect with as many red 397 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,399 Speaker 1: flags as he had who then didn't do anything as 398 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:29,440 Speaker 1: a rookie end up being something very significant in fantasy football. 399 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:30,919 Speaker 1: I just don't think it's going to be a player 400 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 1: that absolutely burns us. 401 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 2: Now. Could he go down the DeVante Adams path? 402 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,280 Speaker 1: Sure, I thought Adams was a better prospect in terms of, like, 403 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,919 Speaker 1: you know, not necessarily like when you include draft capital, 404 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:44,479 Speaker 1: but adjusted for draft capital, like if you're looking at 405 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 1: how they compare to where they were drafted. 406 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 2: Adams and the ZAM model looks better than Matthew Golden. 407 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 2: Matthew Golden was like a high risk player. 408 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 1: But you know, Adams started off really slow and then 409 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:58,200 Speaker 1: became something. But anytime you compare to an outlier like that, 410 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:00,159 Speaker 1: you're probably gonna lose out more often than not. So 411 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:03,120 Speaker 1: I'm trying to be level headed about this. Matthew Golden, 412 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 1: you know, didn't have a great collegiate production profile, blew 413 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 1: up towards the end of his college career that I 414 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:11,400 Speaker 1: think elevated him in the draft. That in the forty time, 415 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 1: and what he did at the Combine and then last 416 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:15,640 Speaker 1: year he just couldn't find the field enough. Slash wasn't 417 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:17,119 Speaker 1: very effective when he was on the field. He had 418 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:19,240 Speaker 1: like a one point three to one point four yards 419 00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:21,200 Speaker 1: prout run ray, which is fine for rookie, but it's 420 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,439 Speaker 1: not like elite, you know. And so I look at 421 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:26,160 Speaker 1: what Christian Watson did last year. I thought he played 422 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 1: the best football of his life last year. And I'm 423 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 1: really excited about the possibility of Jayden Reid playing more 424 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: on the perimeter like both him and Josh Downs. The 425 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 1: guys who have been really trapped in a slot finally 426 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 1: have this opportunity this year to maybe play a little 427 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:42,400 Speaker 1: bit more on the outside. And if that happens, they're 428 00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 1: both very talented players. I'm going to be in on that. 429 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 1: Like I think Downs is really undervalued right now in 430 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 1: best Ball. It's just a you know, a matter of 431 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 1: will those coaches give them that opportunity. I'm willing to 432 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:57,720 Speaker 1: buy into that because at the very least, they're going 433 00:19:57,760 --> 00:19:59,280 Speaker 1: to play a similar role as they played, So they're 434 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 1: going to give you some production or some spiked weeks, 435 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:02,439 Speaker 1: whatever the case may be. 436 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:04,360 Speaker 2: But there's a ceiling there. 437 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:06,679 Speaker 1: There's a clear path to getting more volume and playing 438 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 1: more So I like both both those guys, But but 439 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 1: Jaden Reid in particular with the Packers, he could play 440 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 1: a little bit more on the perimeter and that would 441 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 1: be very good for his fantasy. Valcame. 442 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:17,639 Speaker 3: Is there any situation where you think aj Brown just 443 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:19,160 Speaker 3: lands in a smash spot. 444 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 2: I think the Patriots are one of the smash spots. Like, 445 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:23,360 Speaker 2: that's one of the best. 446 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:25,920 Speaker 1: I mean, Romeo Dobbs I said this whenever the free 447 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 1: agency show happened. It's like he's fine I don't. I 448 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,360 Speaker 1: just don't think he's like a really really I got 449 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 1: autoed Romeo Dobbs. I was so mad because I loved 450 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 1: Romeo dobs last year, you know, when we like he 451 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:39,399 Speaker 1: was one of my highest roster players because he was 452 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 1: like a fifteenth round pick for most of the summer. 453 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 1: You know, now it's just not he's a single ditch 454 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 1: round pick. And it's just a difficult thing to buy 455 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:49,240 Speaker 1: into when I think that he's like a solid player, 456 00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 1: like a wide receiver two on a real team wide 457 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 1: receiver three kind of ceiling in fantasy AJ Brown would 458 00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:59,040 Speaker 1: I mean in New England, he could, he could do work. 459 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 1: It's just that my fear is that a lot of 460 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:03,199 Speaker 1: people are going to just make the natural tie to 461 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,400 Speaker 1: Drake May what he can do. The lack of competition there, 462 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:09,160 Speaker 1: you know of like really really great competition and AJ 463 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 1: Brown being AJ Brown like he's a beast. I said 464 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:14,439 Speaker 1: this on the show, like like AJ Brown had a 465 00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 1: down season, but his down season is still way better 466 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 1: than any like ninety five percent of wide receivers in football. 467 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:22,480 Speaker 2: You know, like he's still a good player. 468 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:24,720 Speaker 1: I do think that there's probably he's probably in that 469 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 1: downward trajectory right now. 470 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 2: But he's still a very good player. The fear, though, 471 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 2: is that it just gets out of hand. 472 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 1: So I'm just trying to like project what the market 473 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 1: might be doing here. Maybe it doesn't and so we'll 474 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 1: be in But I think New England's a great spot 475 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:37,640 Speaker 1: for him. 476 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:41,680 Speaker 3: Overall Shenanigans, they get out of hand. I'm with you there, 477 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 3: all right, let's talk Kirk Cousins in Vegas. 478 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 2: I forgot that he went to Vegas. 479 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:51,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, because we had this a big board and this 480 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:53,119 Speaker 3: is like I was kind of excited because it's the 481 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:56,640 Speaker 3: only name, you know, on this list of available free 482 00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:59,360 Speaker 3: agents that we've had answered so far, so I get 483 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:03,000 Speaker 3: to mark them off the list. But he's in Vegas, 484 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 3: and now there's all this talk about Mendoza and Cousins 485 00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:15,120 Speaker 3: similar situation in Atlanta, and so you know, I don't 486 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 3: want to make this a best ball show, but I'm 487 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:21,679 Speaker 3: I'm already having and seeing issues of like trying to 488 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:24,719 Speaker 3: choose between and figure out what to do there or 489 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:25,879 Speaker 3: just stay away. 490 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:29,159 Speaker 1: You know, Look, I would be shocked if Mendoza is 491 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:30,879 Speaker 1: not starting the second half of the season at the 492 00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 1: very least, right, I'd be pretty surprised if he's not 493 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:37,439 Speaker 1: under center. I think that this was a very smart 494 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,480 Speaker 1: move by Vegas, like a really good signing because you know, 495 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,440 Speaker 1: you get another guy who will shop at Kohle's with 496 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 1: your with your quarterback. 497 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,679 Speaker 2: Uh, you know, you get Honestly, it's funny. 498 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:49,680 Speaker 1: Like the personality wise and the way they kind of 499 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,199 Speaker 1: approach things is not that they're both just kind of quirky, 500 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:52,919 Speaker 1: like interesting. 501 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:54,920 Speaker 3: There's gonna be some collabse there for sure. 502 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're just like a wholesome kind of they embrace. 503 00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 3: They embrace the you know that you like that type 504 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:01,879 Speaker 3: of stuff. 505 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:03,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, they don't. They don't run away. For I respect that. 506 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 2: I can respect exactly. 507 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:07,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, Mendoza, Mendoza is the same way. It's just corny, 508 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,720 Speaker 1: but he's not like Russell Wilson corny. You know, Russell 509 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:13,879 Speaker 1: Wilson is like Russell Wilson Corny is like he's trying 510 00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:16,719 Speaker 1: to act hard way, whereas no, this is just what 511 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 1: Mendoes is, is just what Kirk Cousins is. 512 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 2: So I respect that. 513 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: So I think from like a personality perspective, I bet 514 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 1: they mesh. But I don't know, man, I have a 515 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 1: hard time, you know, usually with a first overall pick 516 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 1: and a first rounder even top half of the first round. 517 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,240 Speaker 1: Quarter My general mantra is that quarterbacks are gonna play 518 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:36,040 Speaker 1: sooner than you think. You know, It's just it's just 519 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,119 Speaker 1: how it usually goes. There's a lot of pressure. Vegas 520 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:42,000 Speaker 1: isn't structurally built to be super competitive, and you know, 521 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:45,200 Speaker 1: why why just ride Kirk Cousins all of Yr one 522 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:48,119 Speaker 1: when Mendoz is a relatively ready quarterback. It's just that, 523 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 1: from like a ceiling perspective, there are question marks about 524 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:54,200 Speaker 1: like how awesome of a prospect he is, but he's 525 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,480 Speaker 1: at least like ready and pro pro ready, and so 526 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 1: you know, from from that perspective, I think we'll see 527 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:04,880 Speaker 1: Mendoza at some point this year. And from a basketball perspective, 528 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:06,879 Speaker 1: it's gonna be really hard for me to go, like, 529 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 1: I hope we get a dis kind of Mendoza. Not 530 00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:10,080 Speaker 1: that I'm gonna be drafting a ton of them, but like, 531 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:12,720 Speaker 1: that's the second half of the year that's gonna be way. 532 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:14,920 Speaker 1: That's just way more important than fantasy fotball in general, 533 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 1: but definitely in best ball, where you know, each of 534 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:21,880 Speaker 1: those playoff weeks are just so important to have active players. 535 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 3: All right, We're a little over a week away from 536 00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:27,399 Speaker 3: finding out where Jeremiah Love goes, and then you know, 537 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:31,679 Speaker 3: we can we can figure out what's gonna happen after that. 538 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,680 Speaker 3: But there's just so much smoke about him being drafted 539 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,639 Speaker 3: in the top five, all this talk about the Titans 540 00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:39,920 Speaker 3: loving him. If he doesn't go, then the Giants can 541 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 3: draft him. I want to I want to point you 542 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:46,359 Speaker 3: to a tweet from Peter Schrager says, I got a 543 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 3: text from a respected NFLGM in response to a heated 544 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,359 Speaker 3: discussion we had on the Schreger Hour over whether a 545 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 3: team can really take a safety downs in the top 546 00:24:55,640 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 3: five in twenty twenty six. Throw positional value out this 547 00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:04,360 Speaker 3: year food for thought. So when it comes to positional 548 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:10,359 Speaker 3: value and love and safety with downs, what's your talk? 549 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 3: What's your take on this whole concept. 550 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:16,679 Speaker 1: So one of the very first episodes of the Late 551 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:20,479 Speaker 1: Round podcast was on positional value, because there was it 552 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:23,639 Speaker 1: was around the time that Saquon Barkley was drafted. Uh, 553 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:26,320 Speaker 1: it might have been before that, whatever, but but I 554 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:32,160 Speaker 1: remember when Dave Gettelman uh talked about positional value being 555 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,159 Speaker 1: a bunch of crock is what he said. 556 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 2: Right, The easy. 557 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,240 Speaker 1: Anytime something like this happens, where like you're trying to 558 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:40,439 Speaker 1: explain a concept, I think it's really helpful to go 559 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 1: to the extreme with a hypothetical, Right, I do that 560 00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:45,199 Speaker 1: on the podcast all the time, and I'm gonna do 561 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 1: it on the mailbag this week, but not for this 562 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 1: topic but another one. 563 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:50,359 Speaker 2: But just think of it this way. 564 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:54,280 Speaker 1: If positional value was irrelevant, then why are we not 565 00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 1: getting kickers in the first round consistently? 566 00:25:56,920 --> 00:25:58,600 Speaker 2: That's that's the easiest way to think of this. 567 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:02,800 Speaker 1: Clearly, positional value is going to have some inherent part 568 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 1: of your evaluation process because you're not drafting kickers or 569 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:08,919 Speaker 1: punners early on. 570 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,880 Speaker 2: You could have the best like what what if. 571 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 1: Your punner or your kicker is really really, really really good, 572 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 1: why are you not drafting? Well, you're not drafting in 573 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 1: the first round because you know that there's some variants involved, 574 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:21,840 Speaker 1: and there's you know, they're not getting paid as much, 575 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: and you can get kickers, and there's a supply and 576 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 1: demand problem, et cetera, et cetera. That's why you're not 577 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:28,480 Speaker 1: doing it. It's a very similar argument for running back. Now, 578 00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 1: I am not I retired from running back value debates 579 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:34,639 Speaker 1: years ago because it got I just grew so tired 580 00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:37,240 Speaker 1: of it and it just was it's not fantasy focused, 581 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:39,240 Speaker 1: and I want to focus my attention on fantasy. 582 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:40,960 Speaker 2: I used to do it a lot. For Number Fire. 583 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:42,639 Speaker 2: There was a lot of running Back related. 584 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:45,400 Speaker 3: It was a big conversation back there running Back. 585 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:48,879 Speaker 1: I wrote an article for Number Fire that's no longer 586 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:52,159 Speaker 1: on the internet because that whole site's gone. But the 587 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 1: title of it was, Saquon Barkley can be a generational talent, 588 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:57,399 Speaker 1: but he's still not going to be a good pick. 589 00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:00,159 Speaker 1: That was the title of the article, something along those lines. 590 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:04,200 Speaker 1: And the idea is, yes, Jeremiah Love could be generational, 591 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 1: and these guys can be generational. But you can simply 592 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:10,360 Speaker 1: look at how teams pay these players and see how 593 00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:12,400 Speaker 1: they view these positions in terms of value. 594 00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:12,880 Speaker 3: Right. 595 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 2: And I'm not saying that's the end all. I'm not 596 00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 2: saying that he can't be valuable. I'm not saying that 597 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:20,159 Speaker 2: John Robinson, Jamier Gibbs aren't valuable. That's not my point. 598 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 1: My point is when you go and you and you 599 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:26,440 Speaker 1: spend on something, because that's what the teams are doing here. 600 00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:30,639 Speaker 1: They have precious equity and capital in the draft and 601 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 1: they're using that to get players, and there's an opportunity 602 00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 1: cost involved in doing that. 603 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:39,160 Speaker 2: And if you go when you draft Jeremiah Love as 604 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:39,960 Speaker 2: the Titans in. 605 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:43,159 Speaker 1: The top five, you know, could he put butts in 606 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:45,719 Speaker 1: the stands and could he be a really good player 607 00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:48,960 Speaker 1: for that franchise. Sure, if that's part of your evaluation, fine, 608 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:50,720 Speaker 1: go for it. I don't, I don't care. You know, 609 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:56,600 Speaker 1: it's fine. But the way that rookie rookies get paid 610 00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:59,200 Speaker 1: is that there is a locked in salary for these 611 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 1: positions in the and so him getting a running back 612 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 1: being paid getting drafted fourth. 613 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 2: Overall, you are much better off spending it on. 614 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 1: A higher quality position like wide receiver or corner, whatever 615 00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:16,360 Speaker 1: the case may be, defensive end because those guys get 616 00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:18,479 Speaker 1: paid more, you know, and so if you hit on 617 00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:20,879 Speaker 1: that player, there is more to gain. 618 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 2: From that hit. 619 00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 1: Right, Another analogy that you could you could run with 620 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:27,200 Speaker 1: this to talk about to talk about just value in general. 621 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:29,480 Speaker 1: And how what was the quote from the the Schrigger 622 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 1: thing that throw positional. 623 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:31,920 Speaker 2: Value out this year? 624 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:32,200 Speaker 3: Right? 625 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, to throw it out. Imagine going to the grocery store. 626 00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 1: Okay, imagine going to the grocery store and you say, 627 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 1: you know what, I really want an apple and a steak. Okay, 628 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 1: but we know that some some some slab of meat 629 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:54,280 Speaker 1: is way more valuable than an apple. Okay, the very 630 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:59,040 Speaker 1: best apple, the greatest apple that you've ever tasted, or 631 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 1: like a ninety fifth percentile apple, let's say, is still 632 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 1: going to be less valuable than a tenth percentile slab 633 00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: of meat because of the value of that thing. So 634 00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:13,680 Speaker 1: Jeremiah Love can be very, very good and still not 635 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:16,000 Speaker 1: be as valuable as a lower tiered. 636 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 2: You know, not doesn't hit in a significant way. Wide receiver. 637 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:21,960 Speaker 2: Let's say, not only that Tennessee has a freaking need 638 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 2: at wide receiver. 639 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 3: You know that. 640 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:25,240 Speaker 1: That's the other thing that drives me nuts here is 641 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 1: that there's wide receivers that are being projected that are 642 00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 1: very good, that are being projected to go in the 643 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 1: top ten, and if they opt to get the running back, 644 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:36,240 Speaker 1: I just think that that's bad process in general. Right, 645 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 1: And they also have two viable running backs right now 646 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 1: that they can get through the season with, right. Yeah. 647 00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 1: So the idea here is not to say that like 648 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:46,160 Speaker 1: I think Jeremiah Love is bad or anything like that. 649 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 2: I just I can't believe that we're. 650 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 1: In the year twenty twenty six and people can't comprehend 651 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 1: the concept of value, like it's the most basic thing 652 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:56,680 Speaker 1: on earth, and gms just ignore it because they want 653 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 1: to go get that guy and get their guy. And 654 00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 1: I know people are screw in their cars right now 655 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 1: about Jamier Gibbs and how people felt about Gibbs, et cetera, 656 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 1: et cetera. 657 00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 2: I get it, Like. 658 00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 1: I'm not saying that that like it can't work out 659 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:12,600 Speaker 1: or that. But the Lions also built differently than where 660 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,360 Speaker 1: the Tenant were built and are in and ended up 661 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:17,520 Speaker 1: building really well and hitting on a lot of picks, 662 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:20,200 Speaker 1: which allowed that Jamier Gibbs pick to look a lot 663 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 1: better in hindsight than where Tennessee is at. You have 664 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 1: to think about range of outcomes here, and also when 665 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 1: we approach a draft or when. 666 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 2: When teams are are evaluating these players. What's also really interesting. 667 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 1: Is they're like, oh, this is a week draft class, 668 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:38,080 Speaker 1: therefore we can just throw positional value out the window 669 00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:38,960 Speaker 1: and not worry about it. 670 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:39,720 Speaker 2: That's cocky. 671 00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 1: There's a lot of arrogance in that statement because you're saying, 672 00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 1: we know how these guys are going to the NFL 673 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 1: draft has so much variance that you're making the assumption 674 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 1: that you know exactly how these edge rushers or wide 675 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:54,760 Speaker 1: receivers are going to perform. But what we really should 676 00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 1: be doing is, Okay, there's a talent evaluation within the position. 677 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:00,720 Speaker 1: So Jeremiah Love is very, very good within the running 678 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:05,080 Speaker 1: back position. But then there's a value you know, composition 679 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 1: and evaluation that we have to do of how good 680 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,400 Speaker 1: these positions actually are, because that gives us at least 681 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 1: some baseline that if a wide receiver. 682 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 2: You know, Rashad Bateman's a good example of this. 683 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 1: Rashad Bateman, is he a miss in the NFL from 684 00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:23,440 Speaker 1: an NFL perspective, Probably right, But him missing by the 685 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 1: degree in which he missed as a late first round 686 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:29,600 Speaker 1: pick is still more valuable. Then even if you get 687 00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:31,720 Speaker 1: a decent hit from a running back in that range, 688 00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 1: you know, just just look at salaries period. And so 689 00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 1: that's my issue with just like throwing out positional value. 690 00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:41,480 Speaker 2: I just don't think it's very logical. I know people 691 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:42,200 Speaker 2: are going to disagree. 692 00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 1: I don't want to get into the like back and 693 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 1: forth of running back value and stuff. That's not the 694 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:48,080 Speaker 1: point of this rant. It's just the fact that it's 695 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 1: a slow time in the news cycle. We got to 696 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 1: talk about this kind of stuff because and also, like, 697 00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:56,600 Speaker 1: I think it's important for us to like critically think 698 00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:58,400 Speaker 1: about this stuff. You don't have to agree with me, 699 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:01,240 Speaker 1: but I'm at least taking a step back and trying 700 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 1: to think through all of these things. And I want 701 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:05,440 Speaker 1: others to really think through all this stuff instead of 702 00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 1: you know, these talking heads going on TV saying, Oh, 703 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 1: he's an offensive weapon. 704 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,920 Speaker 2: What does that even mean? What does that mean? 705 00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:15,000 Speaker 1: So he's an offensive weapon, but Jordan Tyson's not an 706 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 1: offensive weapon. 707 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 2: Like, just get out of here with this garbage. 708 00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:20,720 Speaker 1: You're just making up excuses to be able to take 709 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:23,520 Speaker 1: Jeremiah Love in the top five period. That's all that 710 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:26,520 Speaker 1: That's all that means. So that's all this is about. 711 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:28,800 Speaker 1: That's all this brand is about. Let's critically think about 712 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:31,320 Speaker 1: this stuff. Let's be smart about this stuff and have 713 00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 1: real genuine conversations instead of, Oh, Jamiir Gibbs is good, 714 00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:36,600 Speaker 1: b John Robinson is good. 715 00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:39,520 Speaker 2: Atlanta has been horrible, you know, like it's it's what 716 00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:42,280 Speaker 2: does it even mean? It's just it drives me nuts. 717 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:45,160 Speaker 3: I think, was it even mean? Needs to be it's 718 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:48,280 Speaker 3: like a clip that we use. What it even mean? 719 00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:52,560 Speaker 3: I probably say it quite a bit. All right, from that, 720 00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:55,960 Speaker 3: let's talk about let's have another conversation JJ, let's talk 721 00:32:55,960 --> 00:33:05,239 Speaker 3: about projected versus actual wide receivers today data. All right, 722 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:08,240 Speaker 3: here we have top one hundred wide receivers by year 723 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 3: projected versus actual value. 724 00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:14,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, so I was actually kind of curious about this. 725 00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 1: So I looked at NFL mock Draft database data going 726 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 1: back to twenty sixteen, and I listed how many wide 727 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 1: receivers we've seen in the top one hundred get drafted, 728 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,760 Speaker 1: you know, via actual like what we actually saw, and 729 00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:30,680 Speaker 1: then also what NFL mock Draft database had going into 730 00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:33,600 Speaker 1: the draft. And right now we have seventeen in the 731 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:36,080 Speaker 1: top one hundred, which is the second most since twenty sixteen, 732 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:39,880 Speaker 1: behind twenty twenty four. You can see though, in the 733 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:43,080 Speaker 1: delta column, which is the difference between actual and NFL 734 00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 1: mock Draft Database projection. I mean, the average overall has 735 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 1: been pretty on point. It looks like NFL mock Draft 736 00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:53,360 Speaker 1: database does inflate the number of wide receivers that get drafted, 737 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:56,560 Speaker 1: typically in the top one hundred, but it's by point 738 00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:59,160 Speaker 1: four per season on average. Because some seasons we've had 739 00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 1: plus two, so two more guys got drafted in the 740 00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:04,680 Speaker 1: top one hundred than NFL Mock Draft Database projected. Sometimes 741 00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:06,440 Speaker 1: we have it, you know, there's another plus two. Sometimes 742 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:09,040 Speaker 1: we have minus two minus four. But like as you 743 00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:13,520 Speaker 1: can see, like the last four years before twenty twenty six, 744 00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:16,759 Speaker 1: they've been dead on NFL Mock Draft database with the 745 00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:19,759 Speaker 1: number of wide receivers three of the four years with 746 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:21,440 Speaker 1: a number of wide receivers that went in the top 747 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:23,560 Speaker 1: one hundred, and how many they had in the top 748 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:27,360 Speaker 1: one hundred. So right now there's seventeen, which means based 749 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:30,840 Speaker 1: on this, I think we're looking at sixteen probably sixteen 750 00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:34,000 Speaker 1: day two, day one and two wide receivers in this draft, 751 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,239 Speaker 1: which you know, I think that a lot of these 752 00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:38,319 Speaker 1: guys have average I said this on the show with 753 00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:42,120 Speaker 1: Harmon like average to above average profiles. I'll say it 754 00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:46,120 Speaker 1: again as I said on this show. Because of that, 755 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:48,920 Speaker 1: we're gonna get some hits that you know, we don't 756 00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:51,480 Speaker 1: really expect or you know, they land in the right 757 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:52,360 Speaker 1: spot and we're. 758 00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 2: Like, okay, yeah, I can see that that working out. 759 00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:59,319 Speaker 1: Because I just think that there's enough like like a 760 00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:01,480 Speaker 1: lot of the guys in round two and round three 761 00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:04,879 Speaker 1: that are projected to go there, we'll have neutral too 762 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:11,000 Speaker 1: high risk draft capital delta profiles, which means the model 763 00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:13,279 Speaker 1: does that model is going to view them a little 764 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:17,160 Speaker 1: bit less favorably than what their draft capital says. Now, 765 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:20,160 Speaker 1: their overall profiles, I say, are average to above average, 766 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:22,160 Speaker 1: because I'm just looking at that in the context of 767 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 1: the entire draft class. Right, there's just a lot of 768 00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 1: dudes who are fine. But yeah, like, I think it's 769 00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:30,880 Speaker 1: an interesting thing to think about, and I would I 770 00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:32,919 Speaker 1: would imagine we see a lot of those Day two 771 00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 1: wide receivers, which means that Friday night is going to 772 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:37,560 Speaker 1: be very, very busy for us at late round Fantasy football. 773 00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:41,919 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm I mean, I'm excited. I know some people 774 00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:44,200 Speaker 3: talk about like this being like a down class. It's 775 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:46,960 Speaker 3: still it doesn't matter how down the class is at 776 00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 3: any position, it's still fun to see where guys are going. 777 00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:55,440 Speaker 3: If anything, just to panic about guys that you already have, Yeah, 778 00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:58,040 Speaker 3: you know, and and what's gonna happen there? All right, 779 00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:00,440 Speaker 3: With that being said, let's get on to it. It's 780 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:07,399 Speaker 3: the main event, the late round main event, all right, JJ, 781 00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:11,000 Speaker 3: Here we have rookie sleepers, and just to remind people 782 00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:14,480 Speaker 3: in case someone is watching this video later on and like, 783 00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:17,240 Speaker 3: I can't believe this is before the NFL Draft I started. 784 00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:23,000 Speaker 3: These are pre NFL draft rookie sleepers. And uh, let's 785 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:26,800 Speaker 3: start with a guy that he just got injured, Eric McCallister. 786 00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:29,839 Speaker 2: Yeah. I feel like it wasn't really a headline either. Yeah. 787 00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:33,440 Speaker 3: In fact, I when I saw sy he's the he's 788 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:38,399 Speaker 3: a cover boy. And then when I U like did 789 00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:40,680 Speaker 3: some research to pull a photo, I see, oh, he 790 00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:43,000 Speaker 3: got injured during pro Day, and then I had to 791 00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:44,400 Speaker 3: come back to make sure you had it on there 792 00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:47,160 Speaker 3: because like JJ may not know he's on here that 793 00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:49,000 Speaker 3: he you know, he injured himself. 794 00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. 795 00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:53,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, I I honestly didn't even realize until I started 796 00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:54,799 Speaker 1: doing research for the show. 797 00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:57,839 Speaker 2: Uh that's part of being away last week too. 798 00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:01,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, but yeah, I do want to say that Eric 799 00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:04,440 Speaker 1: McCallister might go undrafted because of some off the field 800 00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:07,240 Speaker 1: stuff and Dane Brugler's I was talking to Harmon about 801 00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:12,040 Speaker 1: this and Dane Brugler's The Beast, which is a phenomenal 802 00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:17,000 Speaker 1: resource for prospect stuff. Uh, there's a I shouldn't be 803 00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:19,719 Speaker 1: lie it's not funny. It's just crazy that it says 804 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:23,800 Speaker 1: there's a second misdemeanor count of terroristic threat causing fear 805 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:28,719 Speaker 1: of imminent serious bodily injury that was against Eric McAllister. 806 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:32,160 Speaker 1: Like he there's a gun charge, felony gun charge for him. 807 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:34,440 Speaker 1: So it's something that we have to keep in mind 808 00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:36,680 Speaker 1: with the way that teams might view him. 809 00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:38,960 Speaker 2: And there are people who don't. 810 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:41,520 Speaker 1: Think that McAllister is very like I harmon off air 811 00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:44,400 Speaker 1: was not very you know or like in text messages, 812 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:46,920 Speaker 1: and very high on McAllister. I think Brugler is not 813 00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:49,680 Speaker 1: very high on McAllister. So I highly doubt this all 814 00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:51,360 Speaker 1: comes together. But this is a sleeper show. We're just 815 00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:53,920 Speaker 1: having some fun today. You know these are these are 816 00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:56,799 Speaker 1: fourth I mean, I think the fantasy community might end 817 00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:59,680 Speaker 1: up being irrationally high on McAllister because of his age. Justin 818 00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:03,440 Speaker 1: products is kind of good, it's actually pretty good. But 819 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:06,439 Speaker 1: most of these guys are like fourth round dart throws 820 00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:09,880 Speaker 1: in your rookie draft. But look, McAllister, he's a TCU 821 00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:12,520 Speaker 1: wide out that's gonna turn a lot of people off. 822 00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:16,680 Speaker 1: We have not seen TCU hits in a minute. It's 823 00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:19,320 Speaker 1: been it's been a rough decade for TCU wide receivers. 824 00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:23,000 Speaker 1: With that being said, he has a ninety second percentile 825 00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:26,879 Speaker 1: breakout score. He had a ninety third percentile career yards 826 00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:29,680 Speaker 1: PERU run rate, ninety fourth when just looking out wide, 827 00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:33,239 Speaker 1: ninety first percentile career first downs per out run rate, 828 00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:37,600 Speaker 1: his yak perception eighty six percentile, avoided tackles perception ninety 829 00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:40,279 Speaker 1: six percentile. And with Brandon's work that he's done the 830 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:42,600 Speaker 1: last couple of weeks, we've learned that a lot of 831 00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:46,240 Speaker 1: the avoided tackles and yak stuff does translate to the NFL. 832 00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:48,759 Speaker 1: So that's kind of interesting in my opinion. So you 833 00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:50,839 Speaker 1: get this Jones fracture though at his pro day, which 834 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 1: is a really big deal. You get the the the 835 00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:55,399 Speaker 1: the off the field stuff, which is a big deal. 836 00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:57,960 Speaker 1: I think his draft capital is probably gonna I mean, 837 00:38:58,000 --> 00:38:59,640 Speaker 1: we'll be lucky if he gets drafted Day three at 838 00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:00,399 Speaker 1: this point, I think. 839 00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:03,160 Speaker 2: But I do think the profile is at least interesting. 840 00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:05,960 Speaker 3: To call him out on today's show, is that TCU 841 00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:09,680 Speaker 3: wide receiver shade directed at Quentin Johnson, Well QJ. 842 00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:12,840 Speaker 2: That's more Jalen Rager. Okay, at least with QJ. 843 00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:13,000 Speaker 3: Like. 844 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:14,160 Speaker 2: Qj's another one of those guys. 845 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:16,680 Speaker 1: We're like, yeah, he's definitely not lived up to where 846 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:18,279 Speaker 1: he was drafted, right, Like. 847 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:19,879 Speaker 3: But he did last year. 848 00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:23,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, but likes And we might look back at Qj's 849 00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:24,239 Speaker 1: career and be like, Okay, he was fine. 850 00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:25,520 Speaker 2: He was He wasn't Jalen Rager. 851 00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:28,120 Speaker 1: You know, Jalen Rager is a complete bust, just a 852 00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:33,080 Speaker 1: total bust. But QJ is not quite that. And you know, 853 00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:36,040 Speaker 1: given that, like when he goes and gets another contract, 854 00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:40,160 Speaker 1: look at Qj's contract compared to what a running back 855 00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:41,160 Speaker 1: gets and that I'll just go. 856 00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:42,640 Speaker 2: Back to that that value discussion. 857 00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:47,600 Speaker 3: Okay, let's get to a hybrid position player. This is 858 00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:48,560 Speaker 3: gonna be a fun one. 859 00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:52,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll let you say the last name, Eli Heidenrach. 860 00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:57,399 Speaker 1: He's a he's a I believe, a Mount Lebanon Pittsburgh guy. 861 00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:59,000 Speaker 1: That's a that's the other side of the city where 862 00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:02,320 Speaker 1: I grew up on. But he I believe is a 863 00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:05,480 Speaker 1: y inser deep down. He went to Navy. He can 864 00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:07,640 Speaker 1: line up in the backfield, he can play in the slot. 865 00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:10,880 Speaker 1: He was I mean, his his market share numbers broke 866 00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:14,400 Speaker 1: the model and I had to do a little bit 867 00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:16,600 Speaker 1: of a capping on it because it was just so 868 00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:17,920 Speaker 1: ridiculous out. 869 00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:19,960 Speaker 3: Of control because of the. 870 00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:24,400 Speaker 1: Implement have to adjust for Navy's offense, and so I 871 00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:26,600 Speaker 1: had to adjust that because then I would be getting 872 00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:28,920 Speaker 1: thousands of questions about Eli Hydeen Rak. But but I 873 00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:32,359 Speaker 1: think it's one of those things where we can absolutely say, oh, 874 00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:35,840 Speaker 1: this is an interesting problem. Like again the guy, the model. 875 00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:38,680 Speaker 1: It's there to like get us directionally where we want 876 00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:41,400 Speaker 1: to be. And so with Hide and Reik, we can 877 00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:43,319 Speaker 1: say like, oh, this is kind of interesting. Maybe there's 878 00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:46,040 Speaker 1: something there. He went to the Combine as a running back, 879 00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:47,960 Speaker 1: and so he's in the database as a running back. 880 00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:50,799 Speaker 1: He is one hundred percentile, he's the best pro rated, 881 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:54,840 Speaker 1: best season reception share, one hundred percentile, best season adjusted 882 00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:58,480 Speaker 1: yards per team pass attempt, ninetieth percentile, explosive run rate. 883 00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:01,640 Speaker 1: Like he's athletic, he can line up everywhere if he 884 00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:03,880 Speaker 1: gets an interesting and good offensive coordinator. 885 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:05,560 Speaker 2: I think there could be something there with Hide and 886 00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:06,359 Speaker 2: rank Uh. 887 00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:10,600 Speaker 1: People have you know, it's probably a more than just 888 00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:13,879 Speaker 1: football comp but people have thrown the spider charts out 889 00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:16,480 Speaker 1: there and stuff with him versus Christan McCaffrey, which I 890 00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:20,200 Speaker 1: think is kind of interesting, uh and funny, but he's 891 00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:21,240 Speaker 1: clearly not CMC. 892 00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:22,160 Speaker 2: There's more. 893 00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:26,680 Speaker 1: Profile, but he has he has the receiving skill set 894 00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:29,600 Speaker 1: that a team might really want to deploy and utilize. 895 00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:31,200 Speaker 2: We'll just see.

Okay, his career yards per out run 939 00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:36,279 Speaker 1: is above one point nine, so I looked at all 940 00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:39,439 Speaker 1: players above that mark, and it's not that much above 941 00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:40,040 Speaker 1: one point nine. 942 00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:40,919 Speaker 2: So it is a little bit. 943 00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:44,320 Speaker 1: Unfair this this threshold high adjustice speed score above the 944 00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:47,200 Speaker 1: ninetieth percentile. He again, he's in the ninety first percentile. 945 00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:49,520 Speaker 1: So again these are like the minimum for him, So 946 00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:51,640 Speaker 1: all the guys should be a little bit better. These 947 00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:53,720 Speaker 1: are the guys in the that model database, which technically 948 00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:55,680 Speaker 1: will go back to like twenty sixteen or so, just 949 00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:58,279 Speaker 1: given when the yards per run data goes back to 950 00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:04,200 Speaker 1: Kyle Pitts, Evan Ingram, Eli Stours, Alberto who was everyone 951 00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:08,000 Speaker 1: loved Alberta back in the day, George Kittle, Zach Kuntz, 952 00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:11,719 Speaker 1: and John Michael Gillenborg.

Yeah, John Michael Lienborg Titan, Wyoming. 963 00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 2: Yes, stretch. 964 00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:48,799 Speaker 3: Let's get to Seth mcgallan from Kentucky. It's an easy 965 00:44:48,880 --> 00:44:49,359 Speaker 3: name to say. 966 00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:51,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's an old, he's he's a he's an unk 967 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:52,640 Speaker 2: for sure. 968 00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:55,399 Speaker 3: Seems like a lot of running backs from Kentucky. That's 969 00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:58,040 Speaker 3: just like the stereotype is like older running. 970 00:44:57,719 --> 00:45:00,399 Speaker 1: Backs just they just go there to like five six 971 00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:03,120 Speaker 1: year running backs like Chris Rodriguez. 972 00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:08,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, and uh, who else the journeyman from Temple to 973 00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:11,160 Speaker 3: Bandy to Kentucky. Why can't I think of his name? 974 00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:14,040 Speaker 3: Back up for Bill's helped me out here? 975 00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:17,440 Speaker 2: Oh Ray Davis, Ray Davis, Yeah, old, Yeah, he was an. 976 00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:21,359 Speaker 1: Old too, Seth McGowan, he's definitely always over twenty five 977 00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:23,960 Speaker 1: years old. So this is a last round rookie pick, 978 00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:25,759 Speaker 1: even like, you don't want to go crazy on a 979 00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:26,919 Speaker 1: guy that's that's this old. 980 00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:29,000 Speaker 2: He had off the field issues. 981 00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:31,880 Speaker 1: Charges were dropped, but he like missed a year of school, 982 00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:33,880 Speaker 1: like things were kind of wild. He actually played with 983 00:45:33,920 --> 00:45:37,799 Speaker 1: Mike Washington at one point during their collegiate journeys. But 984 00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:41,040 Speaker 1: he's six foot two twenty three about a one to 985 00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:43,239 Speaker 1: ten speed score, So that's really strong. Like, I feel 986 00:45:43,239 --> 00:45:46,240 Speaker 1: like if Mike Washington like didn't do anything at the combine, 987 00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:49,080 Speaker 1: people would be talking more about Seth McGowan's combine because 988 00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:51,880 Speaker 1: it was pretty strong. And if you look at his 989 00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:58,560 Speaker 1: his metrics, like seventy seventy second percentile avoided tackles per attempt, 990 00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:01,880 Speaker 1: his best season and reception show is eighty fifth percentile, 991 00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:04,359 Speaker 1: which you know it's going to skew towards a guy 992 00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:07,200 Speaker 1: who's played more frequently in a lot of a lot 993 00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:09,520 Speaker 1: of years versus a guy who only played three years 994 00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:12,239 Speaker 1: or something. But still like he showed at least a 995 00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:15,799 Speaker 1: season where he had a decent reception share, And one 996 00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:18,200 Speaker 1: of his comps in the ZAP model was David Johnson. Now, 997 00:46:18,239 --> 00:46:20,120 Speaker 1: the other two were pretty weak. I can't remember exactly 998 00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:22,480 Speaker 1: who they were, but they were guys that were completely forgettable. 999 00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:24,359 Speaker 2: But I do think there's an outcome. 1000 00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:27,200 Speaker 1: Here where early in his career, Like it's got to 1001 00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:30,280 Speaker 1: happen quick because of his age, but I could see 1002 00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:32,480 Speaker 1: him being a backup someone getting hurt or something in 1003 00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:35,000 Speaker 1: him being able to carry a workload, him being a 1004 00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:38,040 Speaker 1: three down back and using that athleticism and maybe for 1005 00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:40,520 Speaker 1: a year or two being someone that we can semi 1006 00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:42,200 Speaker 1: rely on, you know in dynasty. 1007 00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:43,320 Speaker 2: Not not anything crazy. 1008 00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:45,359 Speaker 1: I actually was going through this when I was looking 1009 00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:48,399 Speaker 1: at sleepers, I'm like, I don't have nearly as many 1010 00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:50,960 Speaker 1: like clear cut, obvious guys that I want to talk 1011 00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:52,759 Speaker 1: about this year compared to almost any other year that 1012 00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:55,399 Speaker 1: I've done this. It just feels like I think part 1013 00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:57,719 Speaker 1: of it is that draft capital really aligns with what 1014 00:46:57,719 --> 00:46:59,719 Speaker 1: the ZAP model sees this year, so that helps for 1015 00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:04,320 Speaker 1: But then also there's just not that many like talented 1016 00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:07,080 Speaker 1: running backs and even the wide receivers that are gonna 1017 00:47:07,080 --> 00:47:09,480 Speaker 1: go day three, they're not really that juicy and exciting, 1018 00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:12,279 Speaker 1: so you know, I try to try to limit this 1019 00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:14,240 Speaker 1: to guys who are being projected to go day three. 1020 00:47:14,880 --> 00:47:17,160 Speaker 1: Uh And and that's why it's just it was just 1021 00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:18,920 Speaker 1: a harder exercise than I thought it would be. 1022 00:47:20,320 --> 00:47:24,360 Speaker 3: Okay, I took a stab on this guy at twentieth 1023 00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:27,480 Speaker 3: in the twentieth round of a draft. It's Brendan Thompson 1024 00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:28,399 Speaker 3: from Missippi State. 1025 00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:31,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I think Thompson's an interesting guy. 1026 00:47:31,360 --> 00:47:34,239 Speaker 1: Like he is small, which he gets dinged for in 1027 00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:35,000 Speaker 1: the model a little bit. 1028 00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:36,439 Speaker 2: He's five nine one sixty four. 1029 00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:39,160 Speaker 1: But one of his top actually his absolute top comp 1030 00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:42,399 Speaker 1: was Tank Dell and uh, you know, he had a 1031 00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:46,320 Speaker 1: again Brendan Thompson's production profile not amazing forty second percent 1032 00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:49,720 Speaker 1: tile breakout score. I said in this in this sheet 1033 00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:51,560 Speaker 1: that it was mid, which I found on on Twitter 1034 00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:54,280 Speaker 1: today that I shouldn't be saying mid that that people 1035 00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:56,080 Speaker 1: don't take me seriously When I say mid. 1036 00:47:56,200 --> 00:48:00,000 Speaker 3: Someone that was that was constructive feedback, Yeah to my response. 1037 00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:02,200 Speaker 1: So my response with people don't take me seriously anyway, 1038 00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:04,839 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna keep saying the mid so forty second 1039 00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:08,160 Speaker 1: percentile breakout score. He ran a four to two six forty. 1040 00:48:08,160 --> 00:48:10,080 Speaker 1: The dude is fast and you can see that on film. 1041 00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:13,920 Speaker 1: He he can stretch the field vertically, and it reminds 1042 00:48:13,960 --> 00:48:16,480 Speaker 1: me a lot of how Tang Dell kind of came 1043 00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:20,000 Speaker 1: on the scene for Houston. Same size, same profile, but 1044 00:48:20,040 --> 00:48:24,520 Speaker 1: this this type of size profile definitely does not hit 1045 00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:28,360 Speaker 1: frequently at all. Like JJ Nelson could be a comp 1046 00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:29,640 Speaker 1: for Brendan Thompson here. 1047 00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:30,640 Speaker 2: But the one thing That's. 1048 00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:34,400 Speaker 1: Interesting with Dell is that again, like we only saw 1049 00:48:34,480 --> 00:48:38,040 Speaker 1: a twelve percent slot rate from Thompson and Dell played 1050 00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:39,920 Speaker 1: on the outside, Like so far in his NFL career 1051 00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:42,480 Speaker 1: has been playing on the outside. I think Thompson can 1052 00:48:42,560 --> 00:48:44,520 Speaker 1: hypothetically like go a little inside out. 1053 00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:46,600 Speaker 2: He had a really good slot per run yards prout 1054 00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:48,319 Speaker 2: run rate too, so I think that he can play 1055 00:48:48,320 --> 00:48:48,880 Speaker 2: in the slot. 1056 00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:51,640 Speaker 1: But yeah, I just think that he's like an intriguing 1057 00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:57,080 Speaker 1: prospect where he does something very specific while also having 1058 00:48:57,080 --> 00:48:58,320 Speaker 1: these obvious red flags. 1059 00:48:58,320 --> 00:48:59,120 Speaker 2: But you can see how. 1060 00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:02,000 Speaker 1: A team might wanted to play that and use him. 1061 00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:05,160 Speaker 1: So I'm intrigued even though he's a tiny boy. 1062 00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:09,279 Speaker 3: Yeah go look, go look at some highlights though, Man, 1063 00:49:09,640 --> 00:49:11,520 Speaker 3: that guy could. I think it was an Arizona State 1064 00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:14,960 Speaker 3: night game that I watched and they he went nuts 1065 00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:18,560 Speaker 3: in that game. He's so fast, He's so fast, all right, Uh, 1066 00:49:18,719 --> 00:49:22,840 Speaker 3: big surprise here. It's like me including sours on some 1067 00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:25,760 Speaker 3: of their papya you got Desmond Reed does read running 1068 00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:27,799 Speaker 3: back from Pitt. 1069 00:49:27,800 --> 00:49:30,680 Speaker 2: From Hail to Pitt, Yes, Hail to Pit. I'm a 1070 00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:31,120 Speaker 2: pit alum. 1071 00:49:31,320 --> 00:49:33,799 Speaker 1: We got to throw out a pit guy here. Do 1072 00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:36,480 Speaker 1: I think des Reed is gonna dominate in the NFL. Now, 1073 00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:38,880 Speaker 1: probably not he got a Tarik Cohen comp though I 1074 00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:42,239 Speaker 1: think he looks a lot like Tarik Cohen really explosive. 1075 00:49:42,560 --> 00:49:44,640 Speaker 1: You know, he had an eighty third percentile explosive run 1076 00:49:44,680 --> 00:49:47,920 Speaker 1: rate in college, avoided tackles per attempt sixty ninth percentile. 1077 00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:50,920 Speaker 1: But his receiving profile man best season reception share in 1078 00:49:50,960 --> 00:49:54,400 Speaker 1: the ninety six percentile, uh best season adjusted yards per 1079 00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:57,719 Speaker 1: team past ten ninety six percentile. He is a receiving 1080 00:49:57,800 --> 00:50:00,279 Speaker 1: back who can do a lot when there is base 1081 00:50:00,320 --> 00:50:00,960 Speaker 1: in front of him. 1082 00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:05,040 Speaker 2: And that is like again, I go back to Tari Cohen. 1083 00:50:05,080 --> 00:50:07,480 Speaker 1: I think Cohen was in the NFL at the right 1084 00:50:07,520 --> 00:50:09,960 Speaker 1: time when teams were deploying their running backs in that 1085 00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:12,400 Speaker 1: way a lot more and not afraid to use them 1086 00:50:12,400 --> 00:50:13,240 Speaker 1: as pass catchers. 1087 00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:16,120 Speaker 2: It's a different kind of game now, but there are some. 1088 00:50:16,080 --> 00:50:18,960 Speaker 1: Offenses that could still potentially use a player like this, 1089 00:50:19,160 --> 00:50:23,280 Speaker 1: Like I could see des Reed being a third back 1090 00:50:23,320 --> 00:50:26,239 Speaker 1: on like Chicago, you know, where they just need that 1091 00:50:26,320 --> 00:50:29,799 Speaker 1: like dynamic playmaker to kind of change things up, change 1092 00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:33,560 Speaker 1: a pace kind of player where you know DeAndre Swift 1093 00:50:33,560 --> 00:50:34,879 Speaker 1: and Kyle man Unguy are getting a lot. 1094 00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:36,520 Speaker 2: Of the bulky stuff. 1095 00:50:36,520 --> 00:50:39,719 Speaker 1: But I think that a guy like Ben Johnson could 1096 00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:41,759 Speaker 1: do a lot with a player like des Reed and 1097 00:50:41,800 --> 00:50:43,920 Speaker 1: be creative with him. So I think there could be 1098 00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:46,000 Speaker 1: a spot for him. He might go undrafted, so keep 1099 00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:48,160 Speaker 1: that in mind. But I do think he's an interesting 1100 00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:51,120 Speaker 1: prospect because a lot of his production metrics look really good. 1101 00:50:51,120 --> 00:50:52,560 Speaker 1: It's just the problem is he's five to six one 1102 00:50:52,640 --> 00:50:55,440 Speaker 1: hundred and seventy four pounds, so he's he's a tiny. 1103 00:50:55,200 --> 00:50:55,680 Speaker 2: Tiny guy. 1104 00:50:55,680 --> 00:50:58,960 Speaker 1: This is like a duce Von type situation where production 1105 00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:01,799 Speaker 1: profile may be there, but more than likely the NFL 1106 00:51:01,880 --> 00:51:02,360 Speaker 1: production is. 1107 00:51:02,360 --> 00:51:05,359 Speaker 3: Not going to be there. Okay, Next we got Jeff 1108 00:51:05,400 --> 00:51:10,600 Speaker 3: Caldwell wide receiver from Cincinnati, and the first bullet you 1109 00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:15,080 Speaker 3: have because the other two small small you have not small. 1110 00:51:15,480 --> 00:51:17,160 Speaker 1: Yeah. Like I said, I don't think there's a lot 1111 00:51:17,160 --> 00:51:19,520 Speaker 1: of like obvious sleepers in this class. I don't love 1112 00:51:19,600 --> 00:51:21,560 Speaker 1: Jeff Caldwell, but I do think there's at least a 1113 00:51:21,640 --> 00:51:23,799 Speaker 1: trait or arbitrage that we could play here. 1114 00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:24,120 Speaker 3: Now. 1115 00:51:24,280 --> 00:51:26,840 Speaker 1: I know that people are going to disagree with this strongly. 1116 00:51:26,920 --> 00:51:29,520 Speaker 1: This is purely an analytical take. I think you can 1117 00:51:29,560 --> 00:51:32,080 Speaker 1: make the argument that this is an arbitrage bryce lance 1118 00:51:32,200 --> 00:51:34,319 Speaker 1: kind of play where Lance is like a fringe top 1119 00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:36,520 Speaker 1: one hundred pick right now. From a production standpoint, like, 1120 00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:39,160 Speaker 1: I think he could go round three pretty easily. 1121 00:51:39,520 --> 00:51:40,640 Speaker 2: I don't think Caldwell will. 1122 00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:43,640 Speaker 1: But Caldwell is six' five two sixteen and ran a 1123 00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:47,000 Speaker 1: four to three, one so he's a beast from a size. 1124 00:51:47,040 --> 00:51:50,520 Speaker 1: Perspective Bryce lance also a. Beast he had weaker production 1125 00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:53,800 Speaker 1: when adjusted for strength of schedule because he played at Linden, 1126 00:51:53,840 --> 00:51:56,560 Speaker 1: Wood But Bryce lance also played in a smaller program 1127 00:51:56,600 --> 00:51:58,920 Speaker 1: and had some of those adjustment problems. Too if you 1128 00:51:58,920 --> 00:52:01,640 Speaker 1: scroll down a little, bit you can see the spider 1129 00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:06,319 Speaker 1: chart for these, guys which is showing their, height their, 1130 00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:10,160 Speaker 1: weight their breakout, score their max adjusted yards per team pass, 1131 00:52:10,160 --> 00:52:13,080 Speaker 1: attempt their career yards per out, run their first downs 1132 00:52:13,120 --> 00:52:16,200 Speaker 1: per oute, run their deep ball rate like it's it's. 1133 00:52:16,280 --> 00:52:17,600 Speaker 2: NOT i, mean they're pretty. 1134 00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:21,400 Speaker 1: Similar caldwell looks, better, height, weight like he's a little bit, 1135 00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:25,120 Speaker 1: bigger breakout scores a little bit, better the max adjusted 1136 00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:27,200 Speaker 1: yards per team pass tempt almost, identical you. 1137 00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:30,120 Speaker 2: Know the yards per out run stuff Favors lance a 1138 00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:30,520 Speaker 2: little bit. 1139 00:52:30,520 --> 00:52:34,120 Speaker 1: More but, overall, LIKE i think that this is the 1140 00:52:34,239 --> 00:52:37,600 Speaker 1: archetype at least that we're working with and you're gonna 1141 00:52:37,600 --> 00:52:40,280 Speaker 1: be able to get Called well late in your rookie, 1142 00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:42,160 Speaker 1: drafts Whereas, LANCE i don't think that's gonna be the. 1143 00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:44,759 Speaker 1: Case and so this could just be a call out 1144 00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:47,600 Speaker 1: for a little arbitrage on these like because, Look lance 1145 00:52:47,640 --> 00:52:50,000 Speaker 1: is a high variance, pick like a high variance. PLAYER 1146 00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:52,120 Speaker 1: i don't think anyone should debate. That, like it's a 1147 00:52:52,120 --> 00:52:54,279 Speaker 1: at the very, least a high variant situation where you're 1148 00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:57,480 Speaker 1: looking at this bigger bodied athlete who you, know For 1149 00:52:57,560 --> 00:53:00,520 Speaker 1: lance had had a later career. Breakout For, well the 1150 00:53:00,560 --> 00:53:02,520 Speaker 1: breakout doesn't look as good because he played at Linden. 1151 00:53:02,560 --> 00:53:06,239 Speaker 1: Wood and so from that, perspective, like both of them 1152 00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:10,239 Speaker 1: are volatile prospects at the very, Least and so if 1153 00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:12,400 Speaker 1: you're gonna take a chance on a volatile, prospect and 1154 00:53:12,440 --> 00:53:15,320 Speaker 1: If Bryce, lance because it's a weaker, class really shoots 1155 00:53:15,360 --> 00:53:18,239 Speaker 1: up rookie draft, boards then this could be somewhat of 1156 00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:20,840 Speaker 1: an arbitrage play in getting a guy Like. 1157 00:53:20,880 --> 00:53:25,600 Speaker 3: Caldwell all, right you have an honorable mention only one 1158 00:53:25,680 --> 00:53:28,040 Speaker 3: Though barry And?
