Welcome on board tonight, my friend. 89 00:05:04.879 --> 00:05:08.279 How's it going, balkey, What a lovely introduction, Thank you 90 00:05:08.439 --> 00:05:11.040 very very much. Did you know I wish you would 91 00:05:11.079 --> 00:05:17.160 share with the viewers the sometime tonight the picture that 92 00:05:18.120 --> 00:05:22.639 from the KFFSC contest in twenty nineteen, twenty nineteen, the 93 00:05:22.759 --> 00:05:26.959 picture that I sent you this week. What a precociously 94 00:05:27.040 --> 00:05:30.160 handsome young man you were then, And not that the 95 00:05:30.319 --> 00:05:33.279 kind of guy you are today is not handsome. It's 96 00:05:33.360 --> 00:05:37.399 just it was just a fresh look back into history, 97 00:05:37.399 --> 00:05:41.920 and it's interesting here on this early mid March madness, 98 00:05:42.000 --> 00:05:47.279 the divisional basketball division and conferences. That's what the conferences 99 00:05:47.519 --> 00:05:49.839 that you know. Our first two guys that log in 100 00:05:50.240 --> 00:05:53.160 are good Kentucky Ands Hicks and Christian God bless them. 101 00:05:53.199 --> 00:05:56.120 We're known as a basketball state, but not Tony Balky 102 00:05:56.480 --> 00:05:59.600 that the guys are here to hear you. That's what's up. 103 00:05:59.800 --> 00:06:02.160 Well, they're here to hear me. And then I also 104 00:06:02.160 --> 00:06:04.399 want to give as long as Scott Christian's hanging out 105 00:06:04.439 --> 00:06:06.759 and James Hicks are hanging out, they want to hear 106 00:06:06.800 --> 00:06:09.199 from Oinker and Oinker is giving his blessing on the 107 00:06:09.199 --> 00:06:13.879 show tonight. The very excited to be joining us and 108 00:06:14.439 --> 00:06:17.519 Scott and Hicks and Christian as you would call them 109 00:06:18.079 --> 00:06:21.120 to me, it's he Scott Christian by the way saying 110 00:06:21.120 --> 00:06:22.959 I'm not throw it up in the YouTube. Chara, Now 111 00:06:23.240 --> 00:06:25.800 it is always a good night when Bulky and Ferrell 112 00:06:26.000 --> 00:06:29.199 talk football. Well, without further ado, what are we doing 113 00:06:29.639 --> 00:06:32.639 keeping Christian and Hicks waiting? Let's talk fantasy? Okay, we 114 00:06:32.680 --> 00:06:37.240 got Naji Harris is no longer how sweet it is, 115 00:06:37.319 --> 00:06:39.959 he is now a Los Angeles Charger. This according to 116 00:06:39.959 --> 00:06:43.439 Tom Pellisero, it is a one year packed between the 117 00:06:43.560 --> 00:06:47.720 Chargers and Naji Harris. We have found out that he 118 00:06:47.759 --> 00:06:50.199 can make up to nine point twenty five million. I 119 00:06:50.279 --> 00:06:53.480 believe the guarantee is like right around four or five million. Here, 120 00:06:53.759 --> 00:06:56.079 Harris is obviously going to be the number one option 121 00:06:56.240 --> 00:06:59.839 in Los Angeles, as opposed to Gus Edwards, as opposed 122 00:06:59.839 --> 00:07:02.759 to JK. Dobbins, as opposed to command of Vidal, who 123 00:07:02.759 --> 00:07:04.560 a lot of people thought Vidal would be the number 124 00:07:04.600 --> 00:07:08.040 one guy sometimes last year as well, not not only 125 00:07:08.040 --> 00:07:09.480 twenty twenty five, but a lot of people thought he 126 00:07:09.480 --> 00:07:11.720 would be there guy in twenty twenty four at all. 127 00:07:12.199 --> 00:07:13.600 But they did think that they did. 128 00:07:13.680 --> 00:07:17.279 Yeah, it's it is what it is. Every single year 129 00:07:17.279 --> 00:07:20.079 that Harris has been in the NFL, he has topped 130 00:07:20.120 --> 00:07:23.519 one thousand yards rushing. However, his rookie season was his 131 00:07:23.680 --> 00:07:27.000 highest with one thousand and forty three yards. This is 132 00:07:27.399 --> 00:07:31.879 what the pundits will say, is not sexy, it is 133 00:07:31.920 --> 00:07:35.680 not enticing. And yet we see Harris, a guy who 134 00:07:35.759 --> 00:07:38.759 has been able to turn out yardage in Pittsburgh over 135 00:07:38.800 --> 00:07:40.560 the first four years of his career, go to a 136 00:07:40.600 --> 00:07:43.360 team that loves running the football and probably will not 137 00:07:43.480 --> 00:07:46.160 have Dobbins and for sure, well not I shouldn't say 138 00:07:46.199 --> 00:07:47.839 for sure will not have Gus Edwards, but we know 139 00:07:47.879 --> 00:07:50.000 they've cut ties with Edwards and they have not yet 140 00:07:50.120 --> 00:07:55.040 resigned Dobbins. If we are looking at the I'll tell 141 00:07:55.040 --> 00:07:57.079 you what. Let's let's as far as this goes tonight, 142 00:07:57.360 --> 00:08:02.319 let's look at the Big Gorilla Tournament ADP The Gorilla 143 00:08:02.600 --> 00:08:07.240 the Gorill, which is of course available at fantasymojo dot com. 144 00:08:07.279 --> 00:08:10.199 Darren Armani the godfather of the process, as Joe's. At 145 00:08:10.240 --> 00:08:15.040 anytime we cite any ADP with the FFPC, it's always 146 00:08:15.079 --> 00:08:19.120 due to Darren Armani. Right now, Naji Harris is going 147 00:08:19.279 --> 00:08:23.480 as running back number thirty at the eight oh nine. 148 00:08:23.480 --> 00:08:25.759 Now some of those this is over the last week Pharaoh, 149 00:08:25.839 --> 00:08:29.879 so some of those happened before he signed with the Chargers. 150 00:08:30.160 --> 00:08:32.759 Your thoughts on Harris, He's running back thirty right now 151 00:08:32.799 --> 00:08:34.720 at the eight oh nine. That's a fine value. But 152 00:08:34.840 --> 00:08:37.320 how high is he going to go in your opinion? 153 00:08:37.519 --> 00:08:39.720 And how high is too high? Would you take him 154 00:08:39.720 --> 00:08:41.960 as a top fifteen, a top twenty, a top twenty 155 00:08:41.960 --> 00:08:44.480 five running back? Where does Ferrell Elliott fall in on 156 00:08:44.559 --> 00:08:46.000 Naji Harris. 157 00:08:45.960 --> 00:08:48.559 Charger, Well, I think I'm gonna fall in very nicely 158 00:08:48.639 --> 00:08:52.480 with Naji Harrison all those guys that took a risk, 159 00:08:53.720 --> 00:08:57.559 saw into the future and selected him in the eighth 160 00:08:57.799 --> 00:09:01.519 round or thereabouts. And I guess that's the average position 161 00:09:01.600 --> 00:09:04.799 that half of the drafters drafted him behind that number. 162 00:09:05.240 --> 00:09:09.320 So you're on your right to big victory. Yeah, we 163 00:09:09.399 --> 00:09:11.519 say that this is not a sexy thing, Well it 164 00:09:11.600 --> 00:09:14.840 is for Harball. Harball. You know, Harball was recruiting this 165 00:09:15.320 --> 00:09:17.639 kid when he was at Antioch High School. You know, 166 00:09:18.000 --> 00:09:19.720 Harball is trying to get him in this college. And 167 00:09:19.799 --> 00:09:23.759 this goes way way back. We all know what this 168 00:09:23.799 --> 00:09:26.279 player can do. We all know what Harball wants to 169 00:09:26.320 --> 00:09:30.039 do with the ball. We we know that fantasy players. 170 00:09:30.039 --> 00:09:32.559 There's not a whole lot I can add. How good 171 00:09:32.720 --> 00:09:35.519 is he going to be here, Bunkie. You may not 172 00:09:35.720 --> 00:09:38.240 know this, but I grew up in the South and 173 00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:42.879 we ate a lot of corn bread, a lot of 174 00:09:42.919 --> 00:09:48.039 cornbreck corn bread. Sometimes when there was only corn mill 175 00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:52.879 salt and water, it was actually corn pone. It looks 176 00:09:52.919 --> 00:09:56.679 like pancakes, you know, And you know that was a 177 00:09:56.720 --> 00:09:59.759 staple and it was wonderful. It's crunchy, warm, and it's great. 178 00:10:00.120 --> 00:10:05.000 After a few days, it gets a little, you know, 179 00:10:05.840 --> 00:10:09.759 a little hard. It goes from crunchy to hard. The 180 00:10:09.799 --> 00:10:11.960 way you've got to get it down then is you 181 00:10:11.960 --> 00:10:14.879 you gotta you gotta decide what you've got is not 182 00:10:14.960 --> 00:10:17.480 as good as what you had, and you got to 183 00:10:17.600 --> 00:10:20.399 drownd it in buttermilk. You got to get out to buttermilk. 184 00:10:20.759 --> 00:10:23.480 And when it comes to nausey, Harris, the Chargers are 185 00:10:23.559 --> 00:10:26.960 nothing but gallons and gallons of buttermilk. Man, it's going 186 00:10:27.039 --> 00:10:32.279 to be fantastic. It's uh, it's it's I'm so excited 187 00:10:32.320 --> 00:10:34.960 for this player. He gets to return to California, he 188 00:10:35.000 --> 00:10:42.679 gets to play in a tremendous situation where he is 189 00:10:42.759 --> 00:10:45.639 no longer you know, the Steelers used to be the 190 00:10:45.799 --> 00:10:49.039 pride of football broadcasting, but that's a one o'clock game 191 00:10:49.320 --> 00:10:51.759 most of the time. Now with the Pittsburgh Steelers, he 192 00:10:51.799 --> 00:10:54.240 gets to go to Los Angeles and he gets to 193 00:10:54.279 --> 00:10:57.360 elevate a team that may not draw well, but there's 194 00:10:57.399 --> 00:11:02.200 still that's a that's a primetime team for our football purposes. 195 00:11:02.240 --> 00:11:06.600 So I love it. He's you know, he's he's he's 196 00:11:06.759 --> 00:11:08.039 getting better over time. 197 00:11:08.799 --> 00:11:10.919 The one thing I want to bring up with you, Farrell, 198 00:11:11.200 --> 00:11:14.840 knowing how deep this rookie running back class is we 199 00:11:15.240 --> 00:11:17.600 need to understand, or at least at least I have 200 00:11:17.720 --> 00:11:22.039 taken the stance of this does not guarantee Naji Harris. 201 00:11:22.080 --> 00:11:24.320 The fact that they've signed him early in free agency, 202 00:11:24.679 --> 00:11:31.440 this does not guarantee him a three down belcow role 203 00:11:31.840 --> 00:11:35.480 with the Chargers. I could easily see Los Angeles investing 204 00:11:35.679 --> 00:11:37.879 knowing that Dobbins and Edwards are probably not going to 205 00:11:37.879 --> 00:11:39.919 be back with the team, and Vidala is just to 206 00:11:39.960 --> 00:11:43.320 me a jag, just a guy. At this point, I 207 00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:46.759 look at Day two with the Chargers as a big 208 00:11:46.840 --> 00:11:49.440 day for Naji Harris. I look at even Day three, 209 00:11:49.639 --> 00:11:52.480 Round four as a big round for the charge I 210 00:11:52.559 --> 00:11:55.200 don't think that the fact that they have signed Harris, 211 00:11:55.240 --> 00:11:57.840 to me, as much as I like this situation for 212 00:11:57.960 --> 00:12:00.759 him better than I did in Pittsburgh share the backfield 213 00:12:00.759 --> 00:12:04.080 with Jalen Warren, I don't think this necessarily guarantees him 214 00:12:04.480 --> 00:12:07.559 a bellcow roll, and I would be if I'm drafting 215 00:12:07.639 --> 00:12:11.120 right now, until you know the NFL Draft starts, which 216 00:12:11.159 --> 00:12:13.360 is a little bit less than six weeks, I think 217 00:12:13.399 --> 00:12:15.399 I have to draft that draft Harris in the back 218 00:12:15.440 --> 00:12:17.440 of my mind, knowing that there could be another guy 219 00:12:17.919 --> 00:12:22.360 that comes into this backfield to take away maybe as 220 00:12:22.480 --> 00:12:25.919 much as forty forty of his volume. 221 00:12:26.200 --> 00:12:30.080 No, Harris has been around a long time. He's only 222 00:12:30.080 --> 00:12:32.639 twenty seven years old. He's benefited from the fact that 223 00:12:32.639 --> 00:12:36.720 he has split time before it and other backs. That's 224 00:12:36.759 --> 00:12:40.639 a difference between the way that Pittsburgh has coached and 225 00:12:40.679 --> 00:12:43.639 the way that the Chargers are coached. You're looking at 226 00:12:43.639 --> 00:12:45.600 a two hundred and fifty carry season from. 227 00:12:45.480 --> 00:12:50.399 This player bulk, regardless of if they whoever matter? Okay, 228 00:12:51.080 --> 00:12:52.320 all right, fair enough. 229 00:12:52.200 --> 00:12:54.720 There'll be another guy that'll collect one hundred touches if 230 00:12:54.759 --> 00:12:57.720 they're successful in the draft. He's gone cast some passes too. 231 00:12:58.159 --> 00:13:02.320 It's uh, this is one of the best landing spots 232 00:13:02.320 --> 00:13:04.240 of a running back that you could possibly have. And 233 00:13:04.240 --> 00:13:07.039 in a year when the running backs are not paid 234 00:13:07.039 --> 00:13:10.720 a lot to move, the numbers that's here that are 235 00:13:10.759 --> 00:13:14.919 here in this contract represent how much they think the player. 236 00:13:15.840 --> 00:13:18.639 Colin Hoffman chiming in on YouTube said that he got 237 00:13:18.720 --> 00:13:20.399 him in the eight to eleven in a big EARLA 238 00:13:20.519 --> 00:13:23.440 draft right before he signed with the Chargers, and he 239 00:13:23.480 --> 00:13:25.759 says he feels pretty good about it. Yeah, I would 240 00:13:25.799 --> 00:13:27.960 feel pretty good about that too, Colin. This is why 241 00:13:28.279 --> 00:13:30.799 Colin has been on the show multiple times. He knows 242 00:13:30.840 --> 00:13:34.279 what he's doing and and clearly this is proof positive 243 00:13:34.480 --> 00:13:35.080 of why. 244 00:13:34.919 --> 00:13:38.559 In the Buttermilk, that's a team name for you, Bulky 245 00:13:38.720 --> 00:13:39.559 in the buttermilk. 246 00:13:40.600 --> 00:13:42.840 I'm adding, let me hold on, I gotta find a pat. 247 00:13:42.840 --> 00:13:45.559 I'm gonna write this down right now. Team name for 248 00:13:45.720 --> 00:13:51.320 me in the kfffcive in the Buttermilk. 249 00:13:51.559 --> 00:13:53.679 We got to get Colling over in Kentucky too. 250 00:13:53.720 --> 00:13:56.440 By the way, Colin and I could road trip down. 251 00:13:57.799 --> 00:13:59.679 We live like ten minutes away from each other. 252 00:13:59.720 --> 00:14:02.559 So I definitely down for to medium at Mile of Music. 253 00:14:02.559 --> 00:14:03.639 At least I will. 254 00:14:03.399 --> 00:14:06.279 Oh that that is actually a great idea that that 255 00:14:06.399 --> 00:14:08.600 we can get Colin coming out from Mile of Music 256 00:14:08.600 --> 00:14:11.919 and glorious Appleton, Wisconsin coming up in the first weekend 257 00:14:11.919 --> 00:14:12.879 of August this year. 258 00:14:13.279 --> 00:14:17.039 Colin, you think all the listeners should come there, everybody 259 00:14:17.240 --> 00:14:22.360 live a live studio audience for our podcast and then 260 00:14:22.399 --> 00:14:24.440 we go to some of the greatest night spots in 261 00:14:24.519 --> 00:14:27.240 Appleton and enjoy the music and the beer and the 262 00:14:27.320 --> 00:14:28.879 cheese Kurds and all that. 263 00:14:29.840 --> 00:14:33.799 Yeah, I think, and Pharah, you would know better than 264 00:14:33.840 --> 00:14:37.679 me on this as far as this is a and 265 00:14:37.720 --> 00:14:39.000 I don't want to turn this into a mile of 266 00:14:39.080 --> 00:14:41.480 music commercial because this is not paid but mile of 267 00:14:41.600 --> 00:14:44.840 music in downtown Appleton will stretch over I don't know 268 00:14:44.840 --> 00:14:48.320 how many city blocks, but there are hundreds of artists 269 00:14:48.360 --> 00:14:50.720 that come from all over the country. It's an international, 270 00:14:50.840 --> 00:14:54.159 quite frankly, an international festival. There are no cover songs 271 00:14:54.559 --> 00:14:56.919 that are allowed to be played. You have to play 272 00:14:56.960 --> 00:15:01.320 your own original music. And basically that weekend Thursday, Friday, Saturday, 273 00:15:01.360 --> 00:15:03.480 all the way up to Sunday night, it is all 274 00:15:03.559 --> 00:15:06.799 original artists, all playing their own wares, all locally, and 275 00:15:06.840 --> 00:15:09.960 it's all free, which is fantastic. I don't know of 276 00:15:09.960 --> 00:15:12.639 another festival like that in the It's nothing. 277 00:15:12.480 --> 00:15:14.840 Like it in the in the whole United States. And Bulky, 278 00:15:14.919 --> 00:15:16.919 don't you be yelling for free Bird again like you 279 00:15:16.960 --> 00:15:17.759 did last time? 280 00:15:18.200 --> 00:15:19.679 That was that was everybody. 281 00:15:21.360 --> 00:15:23.039 I turned around, I knew that was you. 282 00:15:23.639 --> 00:15:27.399 So anybody anybody who follows me on X like my 283 00:15:27.399 --> 00:15:31.960 my my cover photo on there is two guys on 284 00:15:32.039 --> 00:15:33.799 either side of me, one guy wearing a T shirt 285 00:15:33.799 --> 00:15:36.320 that says play free Bird, the other guy saying say 286 00:15:36.639 --> 00:15:40.480 Freebird is overrated. That was at october Fest. The second 287 00:15:40.639 --> 00:15:44.000 large that is the second that is the second largest 288 00:15:44.080 --> 00:15:48.000 Music festival in Appleton, Wisconsin. So that did not happen 289 00:15:48.080 --> 00:15:50.399 at Mile of Music, although it probably Now. 290 00:15:50.360 --> 00:15:53.000 You've gone, now you you're you're out of sync again 291 00:15:53.039 --> 00:15:55.919 with your voice in your speaking. Sorry, and and and 292 00:15:55.960 --> 00:15:58.799 well it's really interesting because you know, our football people 293 00:15:58.840 --> 00:16:01.000 will think you'll start talking about Gazilla next. 294 00:16:01.200 --> 00:16:05.840 You know, that's very very possible. Wow, I'm going to 295 00:16:05.879 --> 00:16:09.480 be talking about Godzilla in the tight ends room of 296 00:16:09.519 --> 00:16:13.399 the Denver Broncos. Okay, Evan Ingram has signed a two year, 297 00:16:13.440 --> 00:16:16.679 twenty three million dollar contract with Denver. He is going 298 00:16:16.759 --> 00:16:19.600 to be moving from Northern Florida to the Mile High City. 299 00:16:19.639 --> 00:16:23.080 According to Ian Rappaport, this frees up six million dollars 300 00:16:23.080 --> 00:16:26.000 in cap space for the Jaguars. This was a bad 301 00:16:26.080 --> 00:16:29.480 season for Ingram. It was a season that he was 302 00:16:29.519 --> 00:16:31.799 coming off of a one hundred and fourteen catch year 303 00:16:32.080 --> 00:16:34.080 for the Jaguars and then he gets hurt quite a 304 00:16:34.080 --> 00:16:38.039 bit this past year, something that has followed him from 305 00:16:38.120 --> 00:16:41.080 his time with New York and then to his time 306 00:16:41.120 --> 00:16:45.159 in Jacksonville. But now he gets to be the joker 307 00:16:45.960 --> 00:16:49.720 for Sean Payton in Denver. He signs on there Bo 308 00:16:49.879 --> 00:16:52.480 Nicks is an up and coming quarterback. The Denver Broncos 309 00:16:52.519 --> 00:16:55.360 offense looks up and coming. Quite frankly, the team in 310 00:16:55.519 --> 00:16:59.720 general looks pretty up and coming. Sixteen and a half 311 00:16:59.759 --> 00:17:03.879 million in guaranteed money, Ferrell, I am quite comfortable taking 312 00:17:03.960 --> 00:17:07.000 Evan Ingram as a top ten tight end this year? 313 00:17:07.079 --> 00:17:08.759 Am I wrong? How do you feel about him? 314 00:17:08.920 --> 00:17:10.599 No, You're in a good place with that, Balky, and 315 00:17:10.599 --> 00:17:12.480 it's a you know, we talked on the last show 316 00:17:12.880 --> 00:17:16.839 about landing spots and in Ingram's situation, we talked about 317 00:17:17.160 --> 00:17:19.319 how he would really need to be a slot receiver. 318 00:17:19.440 --> 00:17:21.599 He really needs to play like Brock Bowers to get 319 00:17:21.599 --> 00:17:24.240 those numbers. I never dreamed that he would end up 320 00:17:24.240 --> 00:17:26.839 with this Denver team and how fascinating that is. And 321 00:17:26.920 --> 00:17:30.200 it's it's it's great for him. We've seen it for him. 322 00:17:30.359 --> 00:17:33.079 I'm I came to this player late and I'm all 323 00:17:33.119 --> 00:17:37.519 in on him now. However, I'm even just as much 324 00:17:37.559 --> 00:17:39.960 excited about what it's going to do for the young quarterback. 325 00:17:40.039 --> 00:17:46.160 You mentioned it, I'll take it further. The the maturation 326 00:17:46.319 --> 00:17:51.119 of this player is brought about by the veterans that 327 00:17:51.160 --> 00:17:53.720 are around him, and they don't have you know, they 328 00:17:53.759 --> 00:17:57.599 got the young players in the backfield. They they haven't 329 00:17:57.680 --> 00:18:00.440 had this kind of mix. This adds to this. I 330 00:18:00.480 --> 00:18:02.759 really like what happens here. 331 00:18:03.920 --> 00:18:06.240 So this is not only a boon for Ingram. You're 332 00:18:06.279 --> 00:18:08.000 liking Nix more because I am. 333 00:18:08.039 --> 00:18:11.559 And there's a quarterback. I'm sure that ARMANI will let 334 00:18:11.640 --> 00:18:16.319 us know, is going later in the draft than a 335 00:18:16.440 --> 00:18:19.359 number of quarterbacks. He has to be around the middle, 336 00:18:19.480 --> 00:18:24.279 maybe maybe top ten, maybe twelve or thirteen. But you know, 337 00:18:24.359 --> 00:18:27.599 I just I. 338 00:18:27.640 --> 00:18:28.160 Just love it. 339 00:18:29.240 --> 00:18:33.480 Parrel, You're gonna, I'm about to I'm about to blow 340 00:18:33.559 --> 00:18:34.240 your mind here. 341 00:18:34.319 --> 00:18:34.960 You're gonna. Yeah. 342 00:18:35.039 --> 00:18:37.559 Yeah, So put a cap on whatever you have. You 343 00:18:37.640 --> 00:18:40.599 said quarterback twelve or thirteen for Knicks right now? Right, 344 00:18:41.400 --> 00:18:45.400 So quarterback thirteen is golf, Well yeah, quarterback twelve is 345 00:18:45.480 --> 00:18:49.519 may We go to eleven. It's Caleb Williams. Herbert is 346 00:18:49.559 --> 00:18:54.480 at ten, Kyler Murray quarterback nine, Baker Mayfield quarterback eight. 347 00:18:55.119 --> 00:18:59.400 Bone Knicks currently sitting at quarterback seven in the Big 348 00:18:59.440 --> 00:19:03.920 Gorilla Tournament. Right now, Bonnicks going at the nine h two. Okay, 349 00:19:03.960 --> 00:19:07.759 this is a full round after Patrick Mahomes. It is 350 00:19:08.599 --> 00:19:11.359 roughly three or four picks ahead of Baker Mayfield. So 351 00:19:11.680 --> 00:19:15.160 there are plenty of people that are buying into bow 352 00:19:15.200 --> 00:19:17.599 Knicks right now, and this is one of those things 353 00:19:17.599 --> 00:19:20.319 where I like Knicks, I like the Broncos offense. I 354 00:19:20.319 --> 00:19:22.240 don't know if I want to pay that highest spot. 355 00:19:22.319 --> 00:19:25.160 Even with the Evan Ingram signing. I think I'd be 356 00:19:25.240 --> 00:19:27.799 more willing to wait on quarterback. 357 00:19:27.839 --> 00:19:28.039 There. 358 00:19:28.240 --> 00:19:30.839 Let somebody else take Nicks, and maybe I grab Murray, 359 00:19:30.839 --> 00:19:33.160 maybe I grab Herbert or Golf or may or a 360 00:19:33.240 --> 00:19:36.720 combination of two of those guys. That seems awfully rich 361 00:19:36.759 --> 00:19:39.079 for bow Knicks in the early ninth round of quarterback. 362 00:19:39.119 --> 00:19:41.079 Seven. What we saw at the end of the season 363 00:19:41.160 --> 00:19:46.079 last year is that's why the drafters are excited about 364 00:19:46.119 --> 00:19:51.240 this player, and you want this player, and seven sounds 365 00:19:51.240 --> 00:19:53.720 too high, but if you're paying a ninth round draft 366 00:19:53.759 --> 00:19:57.279 spot for then it's not too high. Especially we're in 367 00:19:57.279 --> 00:20:00.279 a best ball situation where you can put em with 368 00:20:00.440 --> 00:20:05.319 two or three. You know, Buky, the overhand throwing motion 369 00:20:05.559 --> 00:20:08.839 is life itself. It's what got us out of the cave. 370 00:20:09.880 --> 00:20:13.400 The caveman don't take that personally based on appearance or anything, 371 00:20:13.400 --> 00:20:15.519 but that's what you know when we crawled out of 372 00:20:15.559 --> 00:20:19.920 the caves. That's what allowed us the tools to kill 373 00:20:20.279 --> 00:20:25.559 bigger animals and had the over end throwing motion development 374 00:20:25.599 --> 00:20:29.319 of the prefrontal cortex. If you don't have your quarterbacks right, 375 00:20:30.000 --> 00:20:32.519 your fantasy team will look like you have an undeveloped 376 00:20:32.559 --> 00:20:37.480 prefrontal cortex. So I'm saying, go ahead, spend what you 377 00:20:37.519 --> 00:20:39.799 want on the quarterbacks you love, get three good ones. 378 00:20:39.880 --> 00:20:41.680 Nicks is going to score for you most of the time, 379 00:20:41.720 --> 00:20:43.960 and Ingram's going to make it happen for ith. 380 00:20:44.160 --> 00:20:48.799 That is Pharrell's take on bo Nix and Evan Ingram. 381 00:20:48.880 --> 00:20:51.599 Quite frankly, I don't think I'm that far off from it. 382 00:20:53.359 --> 00:20:55.519 I do want to talk about another quarterback who just 383 00:20:55.640 --> 00:21:00.640 changed teams before we get to prison, Mike himself, who 384 00:21:00.680 --> 00:21:02.319 is going to be joining us on the show tonight, 385 00:21:02.480 --> 00:21:09.000 the one the only ending comparo Derek Cadavid. Justin Fields 386 00:21:09.559 --> 00:21:12.240 no longer in Pittsburgh. We just talked about Naja Harris 387 00:21:12.319 --> 00:21:15.599 leaving Pittsburgh. Justin Fields has also left Pittsburgh for the 388 00:21:16.480 --> 00:21:20.039 quote unquote Green Pastures of the New York Jets over 389 00:21:20.079 --> 00:21:23.759 at Jet Life Stadium. Two years, forty million dollars is 390 00:21:23.799 --> 00:21:27.640 the contract. According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, thirty million 391 00:21:27.680 --> 00:21:31.160 dollars guaranteed. There isn't out after the twenty twenty five 392 00:21:31.240 --> 00:21:33.160 season if the Jets want to move on, or maybe 393 00:21:33.200 --> 00:21:37.079 Fields wants to move on. Three years was what he 394 00:21:37.160 --> 00:21:41.359 lasted in Chicago, and in his fourth year in the 395 00:21:41.400 --> 00:21:44.799 league he was benched by his by a second team. 396 00:21:45.240 --> 00:21:48.559 He threw five picks and one excuse me, five touchdowns 397 00:21:48.599 --> 00:21:51.240 and one pick in six starts to open the year 398 00:21:51.279 --> 00:21:55.680 when Russell Wilson wasn't healthy enough to play. However, there 399 00:21:55.880 --> 00:21:59.079 was a catering to Justin Field's not only strengths but 400 00:21:59.160 --> 00:22:03.200 weaknesses with Pittsburgh last year, Russell Wilson became the starter 401 00:22:03.319 --> 00:22:05.799
