Speaker 1: of the program tonight, I want to shout out our
Speaker 1: audio engineer and my best friend Bryce and of course,
Speaker 1: our producer and mutual friend Rob. Ladies and gentlemen, we
Speaker 1: have a huge night of drafting for you at the
Speaker 1: FFPC once this show is done, or maybe you want to,
Speaker 1: you know, watch the show or listen to the show
Speaker 1: while you draft. You can do that as well. Big
Speaker 1: Gorilla drafts have been filling up fast. We have two
Speaker 1: slots left tonight, the eleven o'clock RDS two people signed
Speaker 1: up for it, and then the midnight one is filling
Speaker 1: up after that. Why should you be doing this? It
Speaker 1: is a one million dollar grand prize. You draft a
Speaker 1: single team in the Big Gorilla and you could win
Speaker 1: a million off that single team. It's gonna pay down
Speaker 1: to eight hundred spots in the championship round. It's gonna
Speaker 1: give us six figure grand prize to the second place team.
Speaker 1: You don't even have to win the Big Gorilla to
Speaker 1: win one hundred and fifty grand this year. And don't
Speaker 1: forget fifty dollars discount on every third team. And you're
Speaker 1: eligible for that seven bananas promo where you want to
Speaker 1: root for that seven pick because if you keep randomly
Speaker 1: getting that seven pick assigned to you multiple drafts in
Speaker 1: a row, we will keep throwing at you free FFPC
Speaker 1: teams in escalating value, and if you do get it
Speaker 1: five times in a row, which somebody almost did last year,
Speaker 1: you will win a jungle Safari for four or fifty
Speaker 1: thousand dollars. Where else are you gonna get that? Only
Speaker 1: at the FFPC my FFPC dot com. Let's bring in
Speaker 1: tonight's co host with the most you know him, you
Speaker 1: love him. He's the boss at the KFFFC at kfffc
Speaker 1: dot com. Coming in with the commissioner, mister Farrell, Elliott Farrell.
Speaker 1: Good evening, sertain Lottie. How are you what a great
Speaker 1: weekend we have coming up? We've got Tonight's show, We've
Speaker 1: got Friday Show, and more importantly, we that sixteen NFL games? Yeah,
Speaker 1: pre season? Is that right? Seven on Saturday. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: gonna be and we're getting I mean, like, I don't
Speaker 1: think it's on the show sheet tonight, but there's a
Speaker 1: lot of players that are already like significant fantasy players
Speaker 1: that are going to be playing in essentially week one
Speaker 1: of the preseason. I don't know if you count the
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame game as week one, but like Jonathan Brooks,
Speaker 1: Chewba Hubbard they're going to be playing this week. They're
Speaker 1: they're being like, what do you do with those players?
Speaker 1: We're going to get some information about both those players
Speaker 1: come this weekend. So I'm very excited about that, very
Speaker 1: excited to see what some of these other team starters
Speaker 1: are are doing as well. I think my Packers even
Speaker 1: play tomorrow night against Yeah, that's right. So very excited
Speaker 1: to see that the Aaron Rodgers revenge game. If Mike
Speaker 1: McCarthy plays them, all right, Fara, let's get into it tonight.
Speaker 1: And I want to kick things off with some scary news,
Speaker 1: but I think it's it's kind of behind us right now.
Speaker 1: Mike garra Fallo from the NFL Network reported that Amecca
Speaker 1: ag Buka actually had a toe injury that that he
Speaker 1: suffered today, but it is considered minor. Bucky Irving was
Speaker 1: talking to the press after this practice today and he
Speaker 1: said he thought Aguka was okay. I don't know if
Speaker 1: we should be taking injury advice from his teammate, but
Speaker 1: ye Irving said it it wasn't it wasn't a big deal.
Speaker 1: We I have not this came out like probably about
Speaker 1: six hours or so ago. I have not heard anything
Speaker 1: regarding something serious with Aguka, so I think we're gonna
Speaker 1: be okay. And it's it's interesting because ted Hurst has
Speaker 1: been looking really good so far in training camp. I
Speaker 1: don't know if he's going to be a difference maker
Speaker 1: for FFPC managed leagues this year. But I do want
Speaker 1: to ask you about Agbuka here, and and I don't
Speaker 1: know if the injury plays into this a little bit.
Speaker 1: I mean, because it is a bit of an unknown.
Speaker 1: But Ferrell, he has been shooting up FFPC big Gorilla
Speaker 1: draft boards. He has moved ahead of Zay Flowers. He's
Speaker 1: moved ahead of DeVonta Smith, who's dealing with a hamstring
Speaker 1: injury of his own. Ag Buka is now wide receiver
Speaker 1: fourteen at the three eight. I'm still I'm still willing
Speaker 1: to pay that price for Egbuka, but man, with this
Speaker 1: toe thing, if i'm drafting tonight until I get some clarity,
Speaker 1: I might back off him and go with Smith or
Speaker 1: Flowers there instead. How do you feel about Agbuca's rise
Speaker 1: right now in high stakes drafts.
Speaker 4: I've drafted him. I'm happy I've got him. I'm glad
Speaker 4: to know that he's dodged a bullet here. He must
Speaker 4: have just rolled over on that. A toad can be
Speaker 4: a real problem as we know there no, there's no
Speaker 4: real treatment for it, but it's just really slow player down.
Speaker 4: A good report to know that even though he had
Speaker 4: to move from the field, that he won't be going
Speaker 4: for long.
Speaker 1: So that's good stuff, right exactly. And And and I
Speaker 1: think too, I had I was just talking about I
Speaker 1: can't remember if I was talking to you about this
Speaker 1: or who I was talking to, but I said I
Speaker 1: had just drafted Agbuka in the KFFFC because it was
Speaker 1: like my first share. And then the next kfff C
Speaker 1: draft that was in, I drafted Agbuka again. And I'm
Speaker 1: riding this high Buka and then he has this toe thing.
Speaker 1: So I think we're okay. But I understand if you
Speaker 1: want to pivot if you're drafting tonight, and go with
Speaker 1: somebody else in that spot instead. Here's something interesting, Let's
Speaker 1: go north to the Big Apple Cam. Scataboo and Tyrone
Speaker 1: Tracy are listed as co starters on the first unofficial
Speaker 1: depth chart that the Giants have put out this preseason. Remember,
Speaker 1: Scataboo's season ended early last year in November with a
Speaker 1: really bad ankle injury. But he's been doing pretty well
Speaker 1: and offseason practices. He's been doing pretty well so far
Speaker 1: in training camp. The only thing he hasn't been really
Speaker 1: doing well in is decision making when it comes to
Speaker 1: doing backflips at fan events, which which was annoying, but
Speaker 1: he says he's fully healed. He's listed as the co
Speaker 1: running back one. Devin Singletary listed as number two, so
Speaker 1: Tracy and Scataboo atop the depth chart.
Speaker 3: Pharall.
Speaker 1: I think this is interesting because Skataboo has been trending
Speaker 1: upwards as well, and a player that you now have
Speaker 1: to soak a what is it in the oh? By
Speaker 1: the way, I'm using the ADP I find on Fantasy
Speaker 1: Mojo at Fantasy Mojo on AX fantasymojo dot com. That
Speaker 1: is Darren Armani's website. He's the godfather of the Pros
Speaker 1: Versus Joe's Challenge, which we just wrapped up a week
Speaker 1: or so ago. Anytime we cite ADP data or stacking
Speaker 1: data or anything like that on this show, it's due
Speaker 1: to his website. You're playing in the FFPC. Get a
Speaker 1: sub to Fantasymojo dot com right now. According to Mojo,
Speaker 1: over the last two days, in the Big Gorilla running
Speaker 1: back seventeen, He's at the four oh three. Josh Jacobs
Speaker 1: has fallen below him. Travis Etcien basehell Tutin. I guess
Speaker 1: Tutan's been rising a little bit too, but Montgomery slipped
Speaker 1: a little bit. But now we're seeing like and Scadab's
Speaker 1: knocking on the door of the Williams Is, as is
Speaker 1: Kyron and Javonte, who are going right above him. Does
Speaker 1: this and listen. I don't want to like insult your
Speaker 1: intelligence when I say this, but does this depth chart
Speaker 1: at all affect the way that you are handling Skataboo
Speaker 1: early in the fourth on a big Gorilla drafts because
Speaker 1: you know, some people put no stock into it. Some
Speaker 1: people might think there's something there. How are you handling it?
Speaker 4: No, I'm not going to put any stock into this.
Speaker 4: But Scataboo is one of the players along with Jacobs,
Speaker 4: who's available in the fourth round that I want to
Speaker 4: I wanted ding the backup as a handcuff. I find
Speaker 4: running back so difficult to grab in the double digit
Speaker 4: rounds that I think you better identify as a handcuff.
Speaker 4: I have Jacobs in a big Gorilla slow and the
Speaker 4: Gorilla is stomping all over me because I did not
Speaker 4: get to grab Lynch Boyd.
Speaker 1: Marsh On, the new marsh On hopefully.
Speaker 4: And the uh so I didn't get I didn't get
Speaker 4: to Gray, you know, and so I think that's your
Speaker 4: lesson to learn from this. But uh yeah, those fourth
Speaker 4: round running backs. I like the way that are moving
Speaker 4: around there. And uh, I think if you're I think,
Speaker 4: if you're drafting early and you're not going you're you're
Speaker 4: in the middle like I am, and you go tight
Speaker 4: end and two receivers and then you go running back,
Speaker 4: you might have buyer's remorse however you go. But out
Speaker 4: of that group. What One of the things that I
Speaker 4: pay a lot of attention to bulky on the show
Speaker 4: is if I don't have a firm opinion or if
Speaker 4: I'm not I don't feel that I'm well versed in
Speaker 4: a player, I want to go spend some time researching
Speaker 4: him if if the name comes up in the show
Speaker 4: and I just feel I'm not there with anything positive contribute.
Speaker 4: And I did that with Tuton this week because I
Speaker 4: wanted to dig a lot further into him.
Speaker 1: And you know, that's the.
Speaker 4: Player of that group that I would identify that I graft,
Speaker 4: That's who I would be looking at.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and Tutan's in a bit of a time share
Speaker 1: as well. Again dependent upon who you listen to and
Speaker 1: what you read with what with Rodriguez there, But I
Speaker 1: know there's plenty of touton Belie his Tuton truthers as
Speaker 1: it were.
Speaker 4: Yeah there, well they have they have a lot to
Speaker 4: stand on Rodriguez.
Speaker 1: Rodriguez a good player.
Speaker 4: I know him here from University of Kentucky and his
Speaker 4: play that he had early in his career. But you know,
Speaker 4: he's he doesn't have the track record that Tuton is
Speaker 4: and although it's a short record, it was very impressive
Speaker 4: last year. And that's why they that's why a team
Speaker 4: could be uh pronounced at the end's new name for
Speaker 4: me at Yeah, him too, the h That's why that
Speaker 4: that's why that team could be rather las fair about
Speaker 4: extending his contract and letting him leave.
Speaker 1: And I think that's what we got to look at.
Speaker 4: He's pretty good running back that they'd let walk away
Speaker 4: because they had tout.
Speaker 1: And I think that's what we need to do. You
Speaker 1: need to pay great attention to. Yeah, the the Teuton thing.
Speaker 1: I'm still much more excited about drafting him uh than
Speaker 1: uh than Chris Rodriguez. If you look at the f
Speaker 1: FPC Main Event ADP right now on which is also
Speaker 1: on Fantasy Moojo, you see the disparity there. Touton running
Speaker 1: back twenty one at the five over one Pharaoh Chris
Speaker 1: Rodriguez running back forty two at the ten twelve. So
Speaker 1: you're talking about six rounds of difference there, and you know,
Speaker 1: similar to Scataboo and Tracy. Not that I would advocate this,
Speaker 1: but I certainly wouldn't dissuade you from doing this. Is
Speaker 1: because of the disparity between those two players. I think
Speaker 1: you could make a case, and I wouldn't normally do this,
Speaker 1: but I think you could do it here with both
Speaker 1: these cases, is draft both players because the capital you're
Speaker 1: investing in the second one is not that big. It's
Speaker 1: not like the the Arian Foster Benate thing that we
Speaker 1: had whatever that was, you know, ten fifteen years ago.
Speaker 1: And by the way, if you want to grab those
Speaker 1: players at that price in the FFPC Main Event million
Speaker 1: dollar grand prize we have, I think the lives are
Speaker 1: filled up tonight, but we got live drafts going on tomorrow.
Speaker 1: Slow drafts are popping off at my FFPC dot com
Speaker 1: six hundred bucks off each additional team that you get
Speaker 1: in the main event, and of course don't forget about
Speaker 1: that Championship round that pays down to two hundredth place,
Speaker 1: two hundred thousand for the runner up, and a single
Speaker 1: team could get you a million dollars grand prize in
Speaker 1: the FFPC main event. All right, moving on Ferrell to
Speaker 1: our next bullet point before Adam Rylt comes on the show, Minnesota.
Speaker 1: There are some big news there. Kevin O'Connell has ended
Speaker 1: the quarterback competition. They're naming Kyler Murray the starter for
Speaker 1: the Vikings in week one. In my opinion, this is
Speaker 1: O'Connell talking. He's got the skill set and the abilities,
Speaker 1: not only just from the standpoint of accuracy and his
Speaker 1: ability to affect the game with his athleticism, but he's
Speaker 1: also proven to be smart, very hard working and be
Speaker 1: able to take in a lot of information and churn
Speaker 1: that out. Now, we really want to give him the
Speaker 1: opportunity to really start building a comfort level, not only
Speaker 1: with the system, with the guys, and it gives us
Speaker 1: a comfort level to Farrell because now we know officially
Speaker 1: we suspected it, but we know officially that Jefferson, Addison, Hockinson,
Speaker 1: Mason Jones, all the sons, and Juwan Jennings is another one.
Speaker 1: They'll be catching passes at least for week one from
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray. So two part question here. Number one, are
Speaker 1: you changing the way that you handled any of these skilled, possession,
Speaker 1: skill position players for the vikings and drafts? And number two,
Speaker 1: does this give you a little bit more comfort if
Speaker 1: you're drafting in a super flex or drafting in a
Speaker 1: best ball league where you can't change out your players.
Speaker 1: Does this give you a little bit more confidence drafting
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray.
Speaker 4: Yes, it does, And it makes me look a little
Speaker 4: longer at Addison with Jefferson, with the receivers around him,
Speaker 4: I'll be skipping Jefferson, and I think a lot of
Speaker 4: drafters will do that. And then there's people that will
Speaker 4: still be very much in love with that skill set
Speaker 4: and say any quarterback that he can make any quarterback,
Speaker 4: and perhaps that will be proven that he does.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and the only whiff has been McCarthy for O'Connell
Speaker 1: so far. He's done a lot of crazy stuff, really
Speaker 1: impressive stuff, with a lot of crazy quarterbacks and Mike Greasy,
Speaker 1: I mean not very good so, or at least they weren't.
Speaker 1: They weren't good in a lot of the other spots
Speaker 1: in their career except for when they worked with Kevin O'Connell.
Speaker 1: So that's something that we'll have to be paying attention to.
Speaker 1: And see what the beat the reporters are saying with
Speaker 1: the Vikings offense going forward here and see how it
Speaker 1: is now that there is no competition Kyler Murray. I
Speaker 1: don't want to say he can relax, but he definitely
Speaker 1: can focus on not having to worry about somebody breathing
Speaker 1: down his neck and just focus on moving this offense
Speaker 1: and scoring fantasy points, which is what we want him
Speaker 1: to do. What we want to do right now is
Speaker 1: bring on our esteemed guest for the evening. Yes, ladies
Speaker 1: and gentlemen, I'll give him a rousing introduction or the
Speaker 1: best introduction I can give him right now. He is
Speaker 1: an eleven time FFPC League champ. He just drafted in
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty six pros Versus Joe's Slow Draft number seven,
Speaker 1: League number seven. He's here to talk about that draft
Speaker 1: that maybe a few players that he picked, as well
Speaker 1: as how the rest of his drafts have been going
Speaker 1: so far this season. Please welcome onto the show, mister
Speaker 1: Adam Rylott Adam, welcome in.
Speaker 3: Man, gentlemen, happy to be here.
Speaker 5: That was a kind introduction, far too kind. But first
Speaker 5: a I got, I got a piece of housekeeping I
Speaker 5: want to I want to cover before we jump off
Speaker 5: in this with you, Farrell, we sat at a table
Speaker 5: together in Vegas last year, actually drafted together. You followed up,
Speaker 5: gave me a phone call before we were about to
Speaker 5: face off in the middle of the season, and I
Speaker 5: never got back to you. I apologize, hat in hand
Speaker 5: before we get started.
Speaker 3: So that's out of the way.
Speaker 1: No apology, sir, No apology necessary.
Speaker 4: And Bulky, I competed with Adam in these twenty round draft,
Speaker 4: and I think the level of my competition that I
Speaker 4: drafted at least seventeen players that he didn't want on
Speaker 4: his roster.
Speaker 1: That's how that was my that was my threat to
Speaker 1: add him.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was not a good draft, but that was
Speaker 4: a really good group. But I can't remember how we finished,
Speaker 4: which probably means that my finish was unmemorable.
Speaker 1: How did you do that?
Speaker 3: I don't think that one was a winner for me. Either,
Speaker 3: it was a good experience.
Speaker 1: You guys are beating each other up through the draft,
Speaker 1: like stealing each other's players. Yeah, it's well listen if if,
Speaker 1: if you are, If you guys are in the main
Speaker 1: event again this year, you got to make sure that
Speaker 1: you are getting out of the league, you know, so
Speaker 1: you're not drafting against each other, So you guys both
Speaker 1: have a shot at winning the million in the main event,
Speaker 1: because we know it's not going to happen if you're
Speaker 1: in the same league again. This, this is something we
Speaker 1: have to fix moving forward. Adam, first question, the only
Speaker 1: non fantasy football question we'll ask you tonight. What are
Speaker 1: you doing for a living when you're not winning all
Speaker 1: these f f PC league titles.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so I run operations for the best sunscreen brand
Speaker 5: you can find on the market, Cooler, started by.
Speaker 3: F f PC player Chris Bercheie.
Speaker 5: He's the one who got me into this whole deal
Speaker 5: about about eight years ago and haven't looked back. So
Speaker 5: spending a lot of time there making sure you guys,
Speaker 5: you guys aren't get in the Sumburn otherwise.
Speaker 3: Yeah, otherwise, in a.
Speaker 5: Really fun phase of life with my kids twelve and
Speaker 5: ten right now, So that's that's about it. Between between
Speaker 5: between that and playing playing fantasy football, I don't have much.
Speaker 1: Left, Adam. My kids are twelve and eleven, so like
Speaker 1: the same same exact almost the same exact spot. And
Speaker 1: by the way, and I'll just promote one of the
Speaker 1: other shows I do, The Road of His High Stakes Lowdown,
Speaker 1: the first episode we will be doing after the Vegas
Speaker 1: events have concluded in week one is behind us. The
Speaker 1: first guest I'll have on one, Chris Birchbet, which I'm
Speaker 1: very excited about. So we'll be getting we'll be getting
Speaker 1: a lot of sunscreen talk on not only this show
Speaker 1: but The Road of His. I think that's I think
Speaker 1: that was.
Speaker 3: We don't talk anymore sunscreen tonight.
Speaker 1: I don't know what's gonna happen. I don't know what's
Speaker 1: gonna happen, but no Chris, I think he is slated
Speaker 1: for September fifteenth, so that'll be that'll be great, right,
Speaker 1: So really looking ahead on that, we need to look
Speaker 1: ahead to the fifth round and one Buccaneers running back
Speaker 1: Ferrel that is that is going a little bit later
Speaker 1: than what he was a few months ago.
Speaker 4: Go ahead and say his name, Bucky Irving Adam that
Speaker 4: is that is that's Balky's favorite player.
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's called Balky and Buck. I don't know,
Speaker 1: but it's he.
Speaker 3: And it's not the Wisconsin thing, is it?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 4: No, And he ends up being in every one of
Speaker 4: our conversations. And I think Balky's right. He's been right
Speaker 4: on him all year. Five seven is the current draft
Speaker 4: and f f PC leagues your thoughts on Bucky Irvin
Speaker 4: is part of that Bucks offense this year.
Speaker 3: I'm a buyer. I'm Bucky's bounced back this year.
Speaker 5: I like that people like little Kenny Gainwell and they're
Speaker 5: gonna be willing to pay up for him try to
Speaker 5: replicate Chase what he did last year.
Speaker 3: That's only good for for us Bucky enthusiasts.
Speaker 4: I think you can be a Bucky enthusiast based on
Speaker 4: the fact that he caught the balls last year as well.
Speaker 4: There's a certain floor for Bucky as a pass catcher
Speaker 4: with whatever happens with Gainwell, and Gainwell will be a
Speaker 4: different player in this offense than he was at Pittsburgh.
Speaker 4: There was no real reliable receiving threat in Pittsburgh and
Speaker 4: that's what led to seventy plus catches, So I don't think,
Speaker 4: you know, I think some of our drafters early on
Speaker 4: were the recency buyas Gainwell it says that, you know,
Speaker 4: he's the best pass catcher out of the backfield, because
Speaker 4: that's what we saw. But and he is electric with
Speaker 4: the ball in his hands. But not to continue beating
Speaker 4: on the point, but I think Irving is is going
Speaker 4: to be on the field as this offense moves the.
Speaker 1: Change and moves it frequently.
Speaker 4: So all right, we're all buying in on Irving.
Speaker 1: That's got to make you happy, Bulky. Yeah. I love
Speaker 1: the alliteration too, buying Bucky's bucking is bounce back, you know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: there you go, there you go. I feel like j
Speaker 1: Jonah Jamison righting the headline t shirts Man Adam just
Speaker 1: real quick on this, because there was a portion where
Speaker 1: I of the drafting season where I lost my faith
Speaker 1: in herding a little bit because I was worried about
Speaker 1: gain Will being this prolific pass catcher and then Tucker
Speaker 1: threatening to take stuff away from him at the goal line.
Speaker 1: And I think I brought this up with you, Pharah.
Speaker 1: It was like the office space thing. What exactly is
Speaker 1: it you do around here? Right? If you're not getting
Speaker 1: goal on it, you're not catching passes, and you're just
Speaker 1: banging between the tackles. Inside the twenties, I don't really
Speaker 1: have any use for you when you're going that early.
Speaker 1: But now, Adam, he has fallen. One of the things
Speaker 1: that he has already represented is that he is a
Speaker 1: very good pass catcher at the NFL level. And certainly,
Speaker 1: I think if if the reason for his poor performance
Speaker 1: last year was strictly for injuries, and he's recovered from
Speaker 1: those injuries, then yeah, he looks like a massive steel
Speaker 1: in the mid fifth round.
Speaker 5: That's a bet I'm willing to take. And you look
Speaker 5: at Baker too, he's a dumb guy. I mean, there's
Speaker 5: gonna be there's gonna be a lot of receptions there
Speaker 5: for Bucky and Gainwell, honestly, but I said, I'm just
Speaker 5: not willing to pay that for game Well, and I'll
Speaker 5: take my chances on Bucky in the fifth with a
Speaker 5: potential low end RB one finish sign me up.
Speaker 1: There was a time where I was I was drafting
Speaker 1: Kenneth Gainwell, but it was so long ago in draft
Speaker 1: season like and now to your point, Adam, he's just
Speaker 1: gotten so high. I just I'm not really seeing the
Speaker 1: I'm not really seeing the the return on investment from
Speaker 1: investing that high of a draft capital. But that high
Speaker 1: a draft capital, I should say, uh in in Gainwell,
Speaker 1: this year we move on to h to Chicago, and
Speaker 1: I think that I'm almost positive when I say this
Speaker 1: your pros versus Joe's draft which started July twenty sixth, Right,
Speaker 1: it was this July twenty sixth, Yeah, yeah, and it
Speaker 1: ended and it ended today. Actually, So you were in
Speaker 1: the slow draft. You were picking out of the what spot?
Speaker 1: Was this the five five?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: You have five spot? So you take a Dunsa here
Speaker 1: at the six o eight, which was obviously before the
Speaker 1: Burden injury happened, Right, but you took a Dunes at
Speaker 1: the six o eight. How much in your drafts, like
Speaker 1: main events or whatever you're doing now, how much would
Speaker 1: you be willing to bump up O Dunsa knowing that
Speaker 1: Burden's gonna miss you know, essentially the rest of the preseason.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you look at my my results in that draft.
Speaker 5: This this kills me. I'm a Packers fan, right, So
Speaker 5: I have I have I have Caleb, and I got
Speaker 5: Loveland and I got o'doons right, So that kills me.
Speaker 3: But here here's my deal. So I'm.
Speaker 5: I preferred Rome to Burden before the injury. That said
Speaker 5: that said, I think I think Burden was.
Speaker 3: A little too high, and for.
Speaker 5: The news for me, maybe moves maybe moves Rome up
Speaker 5: to kind of that that back end of w R
Speaker 5: two w R three line. I'm not reacting too much
Speaker 5: to that injury news.
Speaker 3: I don't want to. I don't want to push too high.
Speaker 5: But that's just I'm I'm sticking with where I was
Speaker 5: with those guys before before the injury. Maybe maybe a
Speaker 5: couple spots up in the wide receiver ranks for me
Speaker 5: for Adons, but not a big jump.
Speaker 3: Not a big jump for me. I'm higher, I'm higher
Speaker 3: than market on him to start.
Speaker 1: So that's so, So that's what I want. When you
Speaker 1: said you preferred o Doons over Burden, does that just
Speaker 1: mean like straight up or based on where they're you know,
Speaker 1: the ADP that you had to draft.
Speaker 5: This is probably one of my more controversial takes for
Speaker 5: this drafting season. Straight up, I like categree the hype,
Speaker 5: the hype on Burden. I'm not quite there with everyone else.
Speaker 5: So we can we can check in on this one
Speaker 5: after it's all said and done. But this is one,
Speaker 5: this is one where I'm I'm zigging against the zag
Speaker 5: a bit here.
Speaker 1: Like Adam, how much preseason football you gonna watch?
Speaker 3: Uh? Well, none planned.
Speaker 4: I might want to watch in this reseason football at
Speaker 4: him because you get so's it's so enlightening, and a
Speaker 4: smart guy like you needs exposure to all that because
Speaker 4: you get the information that you learn, you'll go forward
Speaker 4: with it. I'm thinking about Detroit. I really like Detroit.
Speaker 1: Every year.
Speaker 4: I always grade their players high. You can't grade Gibbs
Speaker 4: any higher, you know, than what he is. And you
Speaker 4: know you've got a team here with two players in
Speaker 4: the first round because Saint Brown usually ends up in
Speaker 4: that first round too. But I want to take you know,
Speaker 4: we're the f f PC is a tight end premium league.
Speaker 4: I love that about the rule. And I'm always been
Speaker 4: impressed with Sam Laporta when we talk about bounce back years.
Speaker 4: Let's go to Sam Laporta. Every day I look at Detroit,
Speaker 4: I see something else I love about about the Lions,
Speaker 4: including this year when I looked at their schedule and
Speaker 4: just realize that they're playing twelve games in domes this
Speaker 4: year and the offensive coordinator absolutely loves a dome game.
Speaker 4: Especially if they're a Dome team, they can plan and
Speaker 4: not expect any weather issues to bump them off of
Speaker 4: the offense if they play all running. It's just so
Speaker 4: much I like about Laporta and at tight in eight.
Speaker 4: I think that's a wonderful value. You agree with me?
Speaker 4: Are you all in on Laporta? Especially Darren Our money
Speaker 4: over at the Mojo lets us know that he's the
Speaker 4: eighth tight end in FFPC drafting. I think it's I
Speaker 4: think that's pretty good steal.
Speaker 3: I think he can return really good value there.
Speaker 5: I am historically scared of serious back injuries, though, and
Speaker 5: there is risk reward definitely.
Speaker 3: I think even with him at the te eight spot.
Speaker 4: Balky's got a quote about backs well, Odam Theo.
Speaker 1: I always bring this up when we talk about Laporta,
Speaker 1: and like, especially this offseason, nobody has ever said that
Speaker 1: they used to have a bad back. Eric says it,
Speaker 1: Adam I left. Eric says that, I think that's so good.
Speaker 1: That's what scares me about laporter Although I will say
Speaker 1: I just drafted him in a Kentucky I think it's
Speaker 1: no Kentucky bastball today, Farrell, I just drafted Laporta, So Adam,
Speaker 1: I'm back on the Laporta train, for sure. He's back
Speaker 1: on Adam. He's not him, so you know.
Speaker 4: And I will point out to you, Balky, despite all
Speaker 4: your commentary about bad backs that Pittman played last year with.
Speaker 1: A broken back, I love coming back with that.
Speaker 3: Hey, I know the dude's tough. You've seen that anymore?
Speaker 1: Yeah? I mean so yeah? So well does that tell.
Speaker 3: You what.
Speaker 5: One I value preseason football like I value springscheinting baseball.
Speaker 5: None but two I am listening to is what they're
Speaker 5: saying it camp and letting the teams tell me what
Speaker 5: they're doing with their checkbooks. And they haven't paid them yet.
Speaker 5: I haven't need them yet, so that sometime good playing
Speaker 5: wait and see too. I think they're playing wait and
Speaker 5: see too. I think there's a lot of a lot
Speaker 5: of potential reward at TV eight with him.
Speaker 4: But how much Dynasty ball do you play?
Speaker 5: I have a bit, I have a handful, and I
Speaker 5: have a lot of in Dynasty. I have a lot
Speaker 5: of them there. I took them rookie draft, right, But
Speaker 5: that's kind of how I would I wouldn't now because
Speaker 5: I don't think I could get that that reward level value.
Speaker 3: I wouldn't trade them.
Speaker 4: That's how I would describe my involvement in Dynasty as well.
Speaker 4: And you know, I think that the preseason gives us
Speaker 4: a great look at the moves to make in Dynasty,
Speaker 4: you know, through the way everywhere of the year. So
Speaker 4: you know, look, I'm just I just love football at
Speaker 4: him and I want you to watch and you know I
Speaker 4: got I know you've got responsibilities. I'm gonna call you
Speaker 4: against Adam see them preseason games last night, buddy, So
Speaker 4: now you're gonna be getting morerphology. Just you just say,
Speaker 4: that's Faro.
Speaker 3: It must might. I might give in at some point,
Speaker 3: but I don't know.
Speaker 1: Sam Laporta, as Farrell said, tight end eight in the
Speaker 1: Big Gorilla, he's also tight end eight in the Baby Gorilla.
Speaker 1: Probably no surprise there. He will cost you an early
Speaker 1: six round pick, right behind Craft and Fannin and right
Speaker 1: ahead of Kittle and likely the Baby Gorilla is something
Speaker 1: we introduced this year. Just one hundred and twenty five
Speaker 1: bucks to enter one hundred thousand dollars grand prize. This
Speaker 1: is your gateway in the high stakes fantasy football. If
Speaker 1: you've always wanted to play it and rub elbows with
Speaker 1: the Adam Rylets of the world out in Las Vegas.
Speaker 1: This could be your gateway where you invest one hundred
Speaker 1: and twenty five bucks, win one hundred grand, and we'll
Speaker 1: see in Vegas next year, or however you want to
Speaker 1: spend it. That's not my that's not up to me.
Speaker 1: My FFPC dot com is where to go for the
Speaker 1: baby gorilla. Moving on forward here Adam Tonight, sticking in
Speaker 1: the same division. I think that the Vikings running backs
Speaker 1: have been on a bit of a roller coaster as
Speaker 1: far as EIGHTYP goes. If we go back to prior
Speaker 1: to the NFL Draft, I think there's a lot of
Speaker 1: people that were down on Jones because he wasn't signed.
Speaker 1: Then Minnesota signs him, so we kind of know where
Speaker 1: he's going to be playing, what he's going to be doing,
Speaker 1: and then the draft comes and demand Claiborne is a
Speaker 1: player who had a very rich, productive final year at
Speaker 1: wake Forest, right, and then he's another pepper in the
Speaker 1: gumbo that we have to be concerned about, and then
Speaker 1: not to be outdone. I would say roughly a month
Speaker 1: or so ago, we saw Jordan Mason started climbing up
Speaker 1: FFPC boards as well. So there's this confluence of all
Speaker 1: these Vikings running backs. And I'm not saying any one
Speaker 1: of these guys as a league winner, but when you
Speaker 1: are faced with the prospect of drafting a running back
Speaker 1: where these guys are going in your FFPC drafts, how
Speaker 1: often are you settling on one of these guys over
Speaker 1: the other two, or perhaps you're ignoring it completely. Very
Speaker 1: curious to hear your thoughts on the Vikings backfield.
Speaker 5: I have a soft spot in my heart for Aaron
Speaker 5: Jones for a lot of reasons. But this year for me,
Speaker 5: this year undraftable, in this situation, age, injury history, It's
Speaker 5: just not there for me anymore. I've always wanted Jordan
Speaker 5: Mason to work, especially last year, and it didn't work
Speaker 5: for me. So I'm I look at that backfield, and
Speaker 5: if I'm looking at Vikings running back that might be
Speaker 5: able to impact one of my rosters at some point
Speaker 5: in the year. I'm going to look to Claiborne for
Speaker 5: something later in the year at cost it's a stay
Speaker 5: away from me. I'm we're a little worried about Kyler
Speaker 5: stealing some touchdowns out of that backfield. It's you know,
Speaker 5: I'm going to stay away, but if Claiborne is there late,
Speaker 5: I like taking him to sit on him and see
Speaker 5: if he's taking over that backfield at some point later
Speaker 5: in the year.
Speaker 4: You happy with your pros versus shows ten.
Speaker 3: I'm trying to figure that out.
Speaker 6: Still, Yes, I'll tell you what I I you know,
Speaker 6: go on go on Fantasy Mojos and look at and
Speaker 6: look at what.
Speaker 5: Whatever Javier is saying or whatever. Right, you know, pluging
Speaker 5: good about that guy, forget about that guy out.
Speaker 3: Of I think I'm gonna go.
Speaker 5: I feel like I have an opportunity to finish better
Speaker 5: than the seventh place projection.
Speaker 3: Put it that way.
Speaker 4: You know, we had one of the one of the
Speaker 4: pros coming in and he took great exception with my
Speaker 4: complaint about running back Jones there in Minnesota. And I
Speaker 4: thank Darren Armani for sending me a subscription to the
Speaker 4: k to the website again, and I think everyone should
Speaker 4: sign up for the Mojo. When I discovered in navigating
Speaker 4: around the Mojos, how many years have we had the
Speaker 4: pros versus Joe's balky This is a year eighteen yeah,
Speaker 4: And it appears that the seventeen year record is championships
Speaker 4: won by thirteen Joe's and four pros. And I consider
Speaker 4: that a stellar performance by the pro to manage to
Speaker 4: capture four. I was seventeen, So Adam, you're I think you're.
Speaker 1: Well on your way.
Speaker 4: And I like you what you've done in that draft
Speaker 4: with quarterbacks. I think Caleb Williams backed up with Patrick
Speaker 4: Mahomes at a later draft pick than you've ever been
Speaker 4: able to get Patrick Mahomes is a wonderful, wonderful pick.
Speaker 4: You've got a player there in Williams that is maturing,
Speaker 4: has all this athletic skill set and is maturing on
Speaker 4: the field and his approach to the ball.
Speaker 1: And I like that in mahomes case.
Speaker 4: It was mentioned today by an analyst and I remember
Speaker 4: being at Kansas City practice years ago and the Mahomes presence,
Speaker 4: the loud voice, even when you can't see him on
Speaker 4: the field, you can hear him, even when he's not
Speaker 4: on the field, you can hear him talking to the
Speaker 4: other guys.
Speaker 1: Yellen.
Speaker 4: It's just such a great, great player. And you know
Speaker 4: another thing that we experience here on the show as
Speaker 4: everyone comes in and talks about injuries. If you have
Speaker 4: an injury to a certain part of your body, it's
Speaker 4: the same for every player, and we know it's not,
Speaker 4: but people can communicate it like that he won't be
Speaker 4: back because he has this injury, and everyone is really
Speaker 4: really amazed at Patrick Mahomes coming back from an injury.
Speaker 4: You've got to have a great staff around you, and
Speaker 4: you've got to have a work ethic.
Speaker 1: Around you, and you've got to have a guy loves
Speaker 1: to play football.
Speaker 4: So I think you've got I think you've got the
Speaker 4: best of both worlds at quarterback, and you didn't overpay
Speaker 4: from him. Now your biggest decision is, uh, you know,
Speaker 4: if you had a managed league, was to figure out
Speaker 4: which one you're going to start. But the pros versus
Speaker 4: Joe's will figure that out for you. So this is
Speaker 4: a great job. I'd like to just give you a
Speaker 4: big compliment on that. Is that something you planned for
Speaker 4: going in the draft or did it just.
Speaker 1: Fall to you that way? Love it, Mahomes felt happened
Speaker 1: to me.
Speaker 5: I had thoughts on on Caleb going in, and particularly
Speaker 5: since I was targeting Loveland and putting that together. But look,
Speaker 5: I mean Mahomes at a what QB thirteen fourteen, I
Speaker 5: don't remember which one he went off the board in
Speaker 5: the draft of something along those lines. I think we
Speaker 5: look back after this year and say, why did we
Speaker 5: ever consider him beyond the QB one ranks, and you know,
Speaker 5: we'll move on from there. I mean, I think a
Speaker 5: little bit of I don't know those years in New
Speaker 5: England when the supporting cast got really really thin around
Speaker 5: Brady and he kind of fell.
Speaker 3: But like, it's the talent. You got to stay with
Speaker 3: the talent, I think the opportunity. So there, Andy.
Speaker 5: Reid in a best ball format, give me Mahomes at
Speaker 5: that at that cost all day.
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes was drafted by you, Adam as quarterback thirteen
Speaker 1: in the tenth round of your f FPC Pros Versus
Speaker 1: Joe's Draft. Now the ADP I always cited because the
Speaker 1: closest representation we have to pros Versus Joe's is the
Speaker 1: FFPC Best Ball Tournament. And then there Mahomes is quarterback
Speaker 1: thirteen at the nine oh seven. So still you know,
Speaker 1: you still got them at the same quarterback spot, but
Speaker 1: you got them basically around later, which is fantastic. And
Speaker 1: if you agree with Adam Rylant and think that Patrick
Speaker 1: Mahomes is being undervalued in the Best Ball Tournament, then
Speaker 1: get yourself a team in the FFPC Bestball Tournament on
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty five dollars four hundred thousand dollars grand
Speaker 1: prize this year. It's up from three hundred k last year.
Speaker 1: We up that grand prize. It's going to pay out deep.
Speaker 1: It's going to be a lot of fun and a
Speaker 1: lot of people are having a lot of fun drafting
Speaker 1: these teams, but they don't have to manage throughout the season.
Speaker 1: The Best Ball Optimizer does that for you with the
Speaker 1: optimal lineups. My FFPC dot com is where to go
Speaker 1: for that. We go from one MVP, former NFL MVP,
Speaker 1: Super Bowl MVP, He's won a slew of Super Bowls
Speaker 1: in Kansas City with Patrick Mahomes. We travel east to Cleveland,
Speaker 1: which is the opposite of what Kansas City has been
Speaker 1: experiencing over the last decade plus. The running back situation
Speaker 1: is starting to I don't know, to me, it's starting
Speaker 1: to clear up a little bit now. I think some
Speaker 1: people Adam would still call it a little bit money.
Speaker 1: Now I'm hearing more out of camp that quin Shawn
Speaker 1: Judkins not only is looking great, not only is looking healthy,
Speaker 1: but could be a three down guy there, which definitely
Speaker 1: hurts Dylan Samson's ability to do what he does best,
Speaker 1: and that's catch passes on third downs. And I'm also
Speaker 1: hearing that Samson might not be the number two guy,
Speaker 1: or at least the guaranteed number two guy that he might.
Speaker 1: I think it's Raheem Sanders. He might be in a
Speaker 1: camp battle with to see who's gonna back up quin
Speaker 1: Shawn Judkins. So I think the Samson narrative, he went
Speaker 1: from like sort of like double digit Darling to now
Speaker 1: maybe I'm gonna go a different way here. How do
Speaker 1: you feel about Samson this year? Is he a worthwhile
Speaker 1: player to add whether or not you have Judkins just
Speaker 1: as an injury away type guy, or maybe he he's
Speaker 1: more than that. Maybe he does have some standalone value
Speaker 1: as a third down guy this year. When you look
Speaker 1: at Samson and sort of this Cleveland backfield, how have
Speaker 1: you been attacking it or perhaps ignoring it? Yeah? I don't.
Speaker 5: I don't treat him as an injury away guy. I
Speaker 5: treat him as that that the values in the pass
Speaker 5: catching role. And if you know, Jugkins coming off an
Speaker 5: injury truly is going to play three downs and man,
Speaker 5: well creator that value, right, But Monkin's going to use
Speaker 5: his backs. Cleveland's gonna have to run the ball with
Speaker 5: that whatever is going on at quarterback. So so there's
Speaker 5: gonna be there's gonna be some tread on on Jugkins tires.
Speaker 5: I see him getting in there on third down. Samson
Speaker 5: a lot still, So I think there's there's some standalone
Speaker 5: value regardless of what the chatter is of him in
Speaker 5: a pass catching role. But I don't I don't treat
Speaker 5: him necessarily as an injury away type of guy just
Speaker 5: because of that and his profile. You know, if he falls,
Speaker 5: if he falls below current ADP, I'm interested.
Speaker 1: I'm not.
Speaker 3: I'm not reaching for him though.
Speaker 1: It's It's a.
Speaker 4: Good mix of players at Cleveland, and I like the
Speaker 4: way that the receiver conceptsi on is acting in the
Speaker 4: responding to the challenge in the first week training camp.
Speaker 4: This is with Watson at quarterback. That's one of the
Speaker 4: most intriguing things that I want to watch this week.
Speaker 4: It's been so long. I want to see if this
Speaker 4: is any any shape or form of the of the
Speaker 4: old Watson that that we remember and if he is
Speaker 4: a different player, how is he different? And I think
Speaker 4: what we see there can lead us in a lot
Speaker 4: of direction to what to do with that backfield. But yeah,
Speaker 4: Judkins and concepts on this team are gaining.
Speaker 1: Uh every lost it too, Farrell Denzel Boston's been shooting up.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that I question a little bit. I want to
Speaker 4: go with one receiver in this offense. I don't want
Speaker 4: to get out. I don't want to get to uh.
Speaker 1: I don't want to.
Speaker 4: We We had a gentleman that came into one of
Speaker 4: the ouse recently and he stacked some browns and I
Speaker 4: I like the players, but I didn't like them all together,
Speaker 4: you know, and uh, the uh as a stack and
Speaker 4: I want to I want to hit my spots with
Speaker 4: these players and good support players around them. And then
Speaker 4: of course we know what we love about fan and
Speaker 4: I think we can consistently be in love with that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, that's I.
Speaker 4: You know, here we got another player that Bulky is
Speaker 4: consistently in love with, and uh, that would be down
Speaker 4: at the Miami quarterback situation, Malik Willison. I I can
Speaker 4: understand why how much stock are you buying in Malik
Speaker 4: Willis this year.
Speaker 5: I like him as my second guy to capture that
Speaker 5: upside and also take that potential upside away from someone else.
Speaker 5: And that exists. I think it's really interesting love him
Speaker 5: in best ball. If I'm talking about what I'm gonna
Speaker 5: do come time I'm drafting some main events and such,
Speaker 5: I typically like to roll out of those.
Speaker 3: Drafts with one quarterback.
Speaker 5: There's a really unless there's a really high upside option
Speaker 5: for that second guy, and Willis might fit that for me.
Speaker 5: So if he's if he's falling, and he's there in
Speaker 5: the back, you know, back half of the second half,
Speaker 5: which I don't think he will be, I'd scoop him up.
Speaker 1: It could be one of those things. Adam Worth, Miami
Speaker 1: does not look good in pre season. Maybe he would
Speaker 1: be slipping, you know, and people will be not wanting
Speaker 1: to be in business with Willis and you might get
Speaker 1: yourself a pretty good deal on him.
Speaker 4: Okay, here's a here's a bonus question to the Molie
Speaker 4: Willis and Balky loves to get in on this. Dudelet's
Speaker 4: see how I'm talking for you tonight. Balky like even.
Speaker 1: Just give you good night, all but your feet. I
Speaker 1: don't even need to be Yeah, yes, you do. Always go.
Speaker 4: I'm missing you know, just as split second Adam, because he.
Speaker 1: Was gone, what receiver? Tell me what receiver is gonna
Speaker 1: emerge from that? Miami Gods?
Speaker 3: The problem, that's the problem.
Speaker 1: Just give me one or is there any? Are there
Speaker 1: any there?
Speaker 3: We're talking?
Speaker 5: Are we talking seventy receptions going to running backs and
Speaker 5: tight ends?
Speaker 1: Is that what you is that? When you think, like so,
Speaker 1: we're seeing a thirty target chair for all the receivers
Speaker 1: combine in Miami.
Speaker 4: I want you to give me seventy catch wide receiver
Speaker 4: out of Miami who scores five touchdowns.
Speaker 1: That's what I'm looking for. Can you find me one?
Speaker 1: I cannot. I don't know.
Speaker 5: If I wish I had that crystal ball, but I'm
Speaker 5: not your guy for that one.
Speaker 1: Okay. I would say this Farrell, like and and Adam,
Speaker 1: I don't know if you if you agree with this sentiment,
Speaker 1: if you're gonna tell me there is one in Miami
Speaker 1: this year that hits seventy catches, that hits five touchdowns.
Speaker 1: If I had to say who it is right now,
Speaker 1: I would say Malik Washington, But I don't believe that
Speaker 1: he will hit that those levels, So.
Speaker 4: Well, somebody, somebody's got to do that, or some combination
Speaker 4: of of receivers have to contribute to a couple of
Speaker 4: those statistical milestones, or or you Malik Willis pick is superfluous,
Speaker 4: So you could you could run the full house backfield
Speaker 4: with Gordon Wright and a chan with Willis back there
Speaker 4: and just really take football back to the stone ages.
Speaker 1: I know Jeff Affley would love to do it in Miami,
Speaker 1: like he'd be a big fan of playing football that way.
Speaker 1: It is the time of the program too, where I
Speaker 1: have to as long as we're talking about Malik Willis.
Speaker 1: Right now, he is going as quarterback twenty one in
Speaker 1: the in the Big Gorilla right now, and that round
Speaker 1: that he is going in, as Adam was alluding to earlier,
Speaker 1: Malik Willis is currently going in. God blessed, I just
Speaker 1: headed up and now I lost it again. All right,
Speaker 1: he is he is going, he is going in and
Speaker 1: oh gosh, I'm sorry, guys, this is horrible podcasting by me.
Speaker 1: So Malik Willis in the Big Gorilla is going in
Speaker 1: the fifteenth round. And if you feel that is a
Speaker 1: slap in the face to Willis and the rest of
Speaker 1: the quarterbacks. Then you need to be drafting in the
Speaker 1: FFPC super Flex Bestball Tournament, where Malik Willis is a
Speaker 1: fifth round pick, still quarterback twenty one, but he's going
Speaker 1: in the fifth round there. Super Flex is a lot
Speaker 1: of fun. Basically two quarterbacks, thirty five bucks to get
Speaker 1: in one hundred thousand dollars grand prize. They've been so popular,
Speaker 1: more popular than they ever have been. That tournament I'm
Speaker 1: talking about, more popular than it ever has been as
Speaker 1: long as we've had it this year. Get in while
Speaker 1: you can now my FFPC dot com and take your
Speaker 1: shot at one hundred k Okay. We move on to
Speaker 1: some listener slash viewer emails and Adam, I will give
Speaker 1: you the first one here. I just got to pull
Speaker 1: it up on my screen. It's from Paul in Alvarado, Texas.
Speaker 1: He writes, seems like there's more than a few receivers
Speaker 1: rising up. My big biller, my big gorilla drafts. Pardon
Speaker 1: me English, uh not my first language? Apparently, are you
Speaker 1: targeting Christian Watson, who is clearly one of those risers.
Speaker 1: That is Paul in Albarado, Texas. We appreciated Paul. Adam
Speaker 1: will throw it to you Watson has been ascending. Are
Speaker 1: you still drafting him even though you're paying a little
Speaker 1: bit higher of a price than you were maybe in June.
Speaker 3: I like Watson. I like him a lot this year.
Speaker 3: I think.
Speaker 5: I think Lafleur has to let love unleasha it a
Speaker 5: bit this year based on what's happened the last couple
Speaker 5: and and Watson's the number one beneficiary of that.
Speaker 3: What's he going now?
Speaker 1: To?
Speaker 3: What? Maybe fourth? Plate, fourth, early fifth? Where is he at?
Speaker 1: It's it's it's I think it's still fifth. I'm I'm
Speaker 1: looking at it right now. So Watson is wide receiver
Speaker 1: twenty five at the five oh six, So he's still
Speaker 1: mid fifth in the big Gorilla.
Speaker 3: But like him there him there, he creeps into the fourth.
Speaker 3: Start to think about it a little more.
Speaker 1: But I like him there he's and I like him
Speaker 1: quite a bit, and I've been drafting him more. I
Speaker 1: don't know, like, who's he gonna look? Okay, So I
Speaker 1: could see him passing up DJ Moore. I definitely could
Speaker 1: see him passing up Luther Burden now that Burden's hurt.
Speaker 1: But then and man, maybe McLaurin now that they've added Diggs.
Speaker 1: But I don't know if he gets higher than McMillan
Speaker 1: or Higgins or Garrett Wilson or mconkeiy or any of
Speaker 1: those guys. And those guys are all fourth round. So
Speaker 1: I think Watson is gonna be pretty comfortably a fifth
Speaker 1: round pick this year unless he absolutely goes ham in
Speaker 1: you know, limited preseason action, which I don't think the
Speaker 1: Packers will give him the opportunity to. But yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: with you buying Watson where he's going right now? Adam.
Speaker 1: One more email here and it is from Nick and Newark. Hey, Adam,
Speaker 1: in the wake of this Alec Pierce injury recovery, should
Speaker 1: I be drafting more Tyler Warren or Josh Downs or
Speaker 1: both in FFPC leagues? Good luck in the main event?
Speaker 1: That is Nick in Newark. So yeah, it's interesting. I
Speaker 1: guess we can make this kind of a two part question,
Speaker 1: whether you like Warren or Downs right now because of
Speaker 1: the Pierce injury, And then the second part, Adam, what
Speaker 1: are you doing with Alec Pierce?
Speaker 3: And and who else is there? Right?
Speaker 5: I mean, it's like an Ashton dueling or something gonna
Speaker 5: get a pop up, So so what do you what
Speaker 5: do you do?
Speaker 3: I mean Warren. I like Warren as tight.
Speaker 1: End for.
Speaker 5: With or without Pierce, So at that cost, I don't
Speaker 5: know if I'm drafting more Warren necessarily.
Speaker 4: Well, you have to be thrilled with the news about
Speaker 4: the quarterback, and the quarterback looks good, and you know
Speaker 4: Indiana Jones is right where he needs to be, So
Speaker 4: that's that's it's a really good thing.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, it depends how much Josh Downs rises. I mean,
Speaker 5: we've had a few years of tape here now. I
Speaker 5: don't know if I'm a believer. Yeah, he's got opportunity
Speaker 5: this year and there should be more target Sheriff Pierce
Speaker 5: is hurt.
Speaker 3: But yeah, I'm not a big I'm not a big
Speaker 3: Josh Down's believer.
Speaker 1: I haven't been either.
Speaker 4: But I like him more this year, not just because
Speaker 4: Pittman's gone, but but to that end, he's going to
Speaker 4: be asked to do more things. And I like him
Speaker 4: on the field with Pierce, and I like him on
Speaker 4: the field with the tight end. There's a lot of
Speaker 4: things this defense has to be concerned about, which lets
Speaker 4: Downs be open offen and an accurate quarterback can get
Speaker 4: the ball to it. So I really like Downs. I've
Speaker 4: got a text bulky that came in from one of
Speaker 4: our noted FFPC players and kf FSC players.
Speaker 1: The the first thing he said is.
Speaker 4: That I'm remiss in not inviting Adam to play in
Speaker 4: the kf FSC. I mean, I got, I got, I
Speaker 4: got sales associates all over the place.
Speaker 1: But you know, it was.
Speaker 4: Very It was a lot of fun last year for
Speaker 4: me to watch Darren Waller have that resurgence with the
Speaker 4: Dolphins offense. And now we have a tight end go
Speaker 4: to a team and Darren Waller being signed by the Panthers,
Speaker 4: he goes to a team where, uh, tight end production
Speaker 4: hasn't been anything to talk about, and it possibly could
Speaker 4: be now with Waller moving over there, Balky any feeling
Speaker 4: Adam any feeling about what what the veteran tight end
Speaker 4: Waller might be able to to do in this waning
Speaker 4: days of his career there at Carolina, Uh.
Speaker 1: I would say, like as like a wide receiver three,
Speaker 1: maybe wide receiver four in FFPC basketball, I'm tight at
Speaker 1: that wide receiver. Yeah. I could get on board with
Speaker 1: a wide receiver yeah yeah. But Adam, I do not,
Speaker 1: you know, with that offense. And you know he's thirty
Speaker 1: three now I don't know, man, like I'm not seeing it,
Speaker 1: but maybe you see something not much.
Speaker 5: I mean that that offense is getting a little more
Speaker 5: dynamic as they've come along a little bit. So you know,
Speaker 5: maybe there's some you know well and there's something, But
Speaker 5: I think you're right setting three four best ball at past.
Speaker 3: You know, a good assessment.
Speaker 1: It wasn't that long ago when we were talking about
Speaker 1: Tommy Tremble being the next big thing in f FPC
Speaker 1: dynasty leagues. There is a lot of people who thought
Speaker 1: Jatavian Sanders when they took him out of Texas, that
Speaker 1: he was in this passing offense. We saw those guys
Speaker 1: go high in dynasty rookie drafts, and obviously Darren Waller
Speaker 1: is the opposite of that. He's not going to be
Speaker 1: going in many dynasty startups, which by the way, are
Speaker 1: going at FFPC dot my FFPC dot com right now.
Speaker 1: Dynasty and Empire dynasty startups. One hundred dollars is where
Speaker 1: they start. They go up to five thousand. You can
Speaker 1: compete against guys like Adam Rylett, who has several f
Speaker 1: FPC Dynasty teams there, and you can play fantasy football
Speaker 1: each and every day year round at my FFPC dot
Speaker 1: com with Dynasty and Empire Dynasty startups. Yeah, Darren Waller,
Speaker 1: this is uh he just he's I know, John Hanson
Speaker 1: from Fantasy Guru. I beg your pardon Fantasy Points. Hopefully
Speaker 1: didn't hear me say that he uh he calls. I
Speaker 1: think he said Devin Singletary. I could be wrong on this.
Speaker 1: I think he refers to Devin Singletary as the Fantasy
Speaker 1: cockroach because he's just always there. He just survives everything.
Speaker 1: This is kind of Darren Waller. Every time we think
Speaker 1: he's done, some other team gives him another chance, and
Speaker 1: we'll see what happens. Uh in in in best Ball
Speaker 1: drafts in the ff PC going forward over the next
Speaker 1: few weeks before the actual NFL season starts, he.
Speaker 4: Could be your most productive twentieth round pick ever, Adam
Speaker 4: and Balki, do you guys remember your most productive twentieth
Speaker 4: round pick ever?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 4: Ever, rookie season for me caught over? Yeah, you know
Speaker 4: you there?
Speaker 1: Who was the pharaoh? Who was the receiver that you were?
Speaker 1: Was it Trey Tucker that you were on again a
Speaker 1: few years ago? And I just remember you. I remember
Speaker 1: walking when I was when I was at the live
Speaker 1: events in Las Vegas. I just remember walking by your
Speaker 1: table and you just stood up and you you literally
Speaker 1: pounded the table and said Trey Tucker and then you
Speaker 1: got up and walked away going on. It was It
Speaker 1: was pretty cool anyway. Speaking of Farrell Elliott, he has
Speaker 1: one more question for you, Adam.
Speaker 4: Oh, yes, it's my favorite question, Adam. And you You've
Speaker 4: got to give us some new material here, and I
Speaker 4: know you will give us someone veteran player, young player, whatever,
Speaker 4: it doesn't matter where he goes in the draft, a
Speaker 4: player that you were really targeting, somebody that a roster
Speaker 4: spot for this player, welcome on every one of your teams.
Speaker 4: And then please tell us someone that is just a no.
Speaker 1: Draft for you.
Speaker 4: It can be in any round because everybody, everybody wants
Speaker 4: to know.
Speaker 1: And that's what.
Speaker 3: Pharaoh. I can't give away all my secrets.
Speaker 1: Well just too, just too yeah.
Speaker 3: Just I love Uncle Rico. Give me some Rico Dowdell
Speaker 3: this year.
Speaker 5: M I think that I think in that in that
Speaker 5: environment and everything I'm seeing, he's gonna get, he's gonna
Speaker 5: get a lot of opportunity. I think that his his
Speaker 5: ADP is good value for a kid, give me Adam Randall.
Speaker 5: This is the year Derek Henry breaks Wow.
Speaker 1: Okay, so.
Speaker 4: Because animal after he rescores fifteen touchdowns this year back
Speaker 4: on the show, you know, maybe it's a first name relationship.
Speaker 1: It could be. That's the first thing I thought of too.
Speaker 1: So so a couple of things to unpack here. First off,
Speaker 1: on Rico Dowdell. We're getting some vibes and I think
Speaker 1: some reports coming out of Pittsburgh. Then it seems like, again,
Speaker 1: this is what a lot of NFL teams say this
Speaker 1: time of year. Whether they actually executed or not is
Speaker 1: another thing. Entirely. I had been drafting a decent amount
Speaker 1: not a lot, but a decent amount of Jalen Warren
Speaker 1: because of Rogers not wanting to get hit, not wanting
Speaker 1: to scramble, that he's just gonna dump it off to Warren.
Speaker 1: So I thought Warre would be good for seventy plus
Speaker 1: catches again this year, a very Kenny gainwell ish season. Right,
Speaker 1: And now I hear this stuff about Pittsburgh wanting to
Speaker 1: go more ball control and running the football, and they
Speaker 1: have a decent offensive line, and they have a good,
Speaker 1: smart quarterback, and they have two very capable running backs,
Speaker 1: and to me, that type of offense Adam, to your
Speaker 1: point that, to me is more suitable for the talents
Speaker 1: and skill set that Dowdell has rather than Warren. And
Speaker 1: we know Doubtell already had a pretty good season under
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy. Perhaps his ADP, you are right, is being
Speaker 1: a little bit depressed right now. He's a seven to
Speaker 1: eight as outside the top thirty running backs. Certainly a
Speaker 1: player that Adam, I'm sure you'll be hopping all over
Speaker 1: at that price.
Speaker 3: I like him there certainly. Certainly.
Speaker 1: The other thing I wanted to bring up regarding Adam Randall,
Speaker 1: I had taken so been a background on Randall, and
Speaker 1: I think most people know this, maybe not everybody. He's
Speaker 1: basically played one season at running back at Clemson. He
Speaker 1: was a receiver before that. The physicality that he plays
Speaker 1: the game with and the size that he plays the
Speaker 1: game with certainly very enticing. My concern with Randall, and
Speaker 1: maybe it's a very minor concern because he's basically free.
Speaker 1: I mean, you can get him for super cheap in
Speaker 1: your final few rounds of your big gorilla drafts. But
Speaker 1: Justice Hill just I don't know what it is with
Speaker 1: the Ravens. They just love themselves. Justice Hill, now, I
Speaker 1: don't think he would be the guy like the absolute
Speaker 1: one a belcow there if anything were to happen to
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry. However, I do think that if something were
Speaker 1: to happen to Henry, you're still looking at Randall playing
Speaker 1: behind Justice Hill. That's my concern. I guess to your
Speaker 1: point the excitement of the mystery box door number two,
Speaker 1: we don't know how good Randal could be. And certainly
Speaker 1: with physical physical skill set like that Adam, this dude
Speaker 1: could end up being a pretty big, big time player
Speaker 1: if Derrick Henry allows him to be.
Speaker 3: Gotta hunt for some potential league winners on contitions at
Speaker 3: the end, right, that's true.
Speaker 4: You know, guys, there's one thing about ric o'dowdell that
Speaker 4: I think we've got to look at, and I suppose
Speaker 4: this is why he's available to seven eight turn is
Speaker 4: that injury history. And you know there's never been a
Speaker 4: new complete healed ric o'dowdell. He dealt with injury issues
Speaker 4: last year. If you remember how they managed him during
Speaker 4: the week ric o'dowdo did not practice.
Speaker 1: Today, you get that d NP by his name and.
Speaker 4: The medical staff kept him on the field, kept him working,
Speaker 4: you know, the end of the year. It's hard to say,
Speaker 4: if you know, if the wear and tear contributed to
Speaker 4: his lack of production at the end of the year.
Speaker 4: And so that makes me think the other running back, Buke.
Speaker 4: I'm buying into what you said. I if the players
Speaker 4: ready to go, but it makes me think that the
Speaker 4: other running back is going to have a big, big
Speaker 4: role because I do think this player is gifted, but
Speaker 4: I also think he's in a managed situation. And you know,
Speaker 4: it's it's a hip and it's it's always lower.
Speaker 1: Body with this player.
Speaker 4: And you know, I admire him for what he's done
Speaker 4: in his career. Moving on, I think sometimes what we
Speaker 4: might have seen from him so far as the best
Speaker 4: we'll ever see from it.
Speaker 5: I uh, it's a chance, certainly, a chance that's out
Speaker 5: of play.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's range outcomes, right, I mean I say that
Speaker 1: all the time. It's all about range outcomes. There's a
Speaker 1: lot of different ways that could go this year, and
Speaker 1: that's part of the reason why you know he's going
Speaker 1: where he's going in drafts, you know, because of all
Speaker 1: the different ways that could go. You admire him for
Speaker 1: what he's done in his career. I admire our guests tonight,
Speaker 1: Adam Rylott, who does a did a great job on
Speaker 1: the show. Adam, congratulations. I don't care what Hoavier says.
Speaker 1: He used to be of this show and he has
Speaker 1: basically ghosted us. He ghosted us like a decade ago,
Speaker 1: and now he's in bed with ARMANI communicating with him
Speaker 1: doing the prosers his show stuff every year. I think
Speaker 1: you had a hell of a draft. And not only that,
Speaker 1: I wish you good luck there and good luck in
Speaker 1: the main event. And I'll just tell everybody out there.
Speaker 1: I'm not being paid to say this, but Kola Sunscreen
Speaker 1: is skuncare that feels like skincare, made with organic ingredients,
Speaker 1: design daily where born in Sokal, made to be warned
Speaker 1: by people everywhere. Koola dot com is where to find

Speaker 1: Kardashians with you too. I know they love themselves some
Speaker 1: cooler for sure.
Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't know about that. I think
Speaker 3: we think we've I think we've moved on, uh from
Speaker 3: that era.
Speaker 1: But Adam, this was a lot of fun. I really
Speaker 1: appreciate you coming on and we will. I'll see you
Speaker 1: in Las Vegas, right, I'll be there, Okay, absolutely, be good,
Speaker 1: have a great rest of the drafting season, and enjoy
Speaker 1: not watching preseason football.
Speaker 4: You watched those games, Adam, Well, I.
Speaker 1: Will bust it to my TV and I will get
Speaker 1: that some reminders.
Speaker 3: Whatever, even if it's even if it's a replay, I'll
Speaker 3: get it on the TV.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you get Thanks Adam, that was a lot of fun.
Speaker 3: Guys, I appreciate it. Thank you.
Speaker 1: Awesome, thank you. We appreciate you, Adam Riley, Ladies and gentlemen,
Speaker 1: eleven time f FPC League winner pros versus Joe's Drafter
Speaker 1: uh for twenty twenty six as well. We we made
Speaker 1: it farll and uh. I want to remind everybody I
Speaker 1: am doing, not that you care, if anybody cares that
Speaker 1: I'm doing this. I got five different slow drafts in
Speaker 1: Kentucky going on right now. Yeah, I do. I care
Speaker 1: a lot.
Speaker 4: Okay, I know he checked in with his he cares
Speaker 4: a lot.
Speaker 1: Well, I'm just I'm just saying, nobody cares about my
Speaker 1: team what they should be caring about. They're Kentucky fantasy.
Speaker 1: They do.
Speaker 4: But you know, I get guys that call me about
Speaker 4: drafts and they'll ask me, is BALKI going to be
Speaker 4: in this one? And I say yes, and they rush
Speaker 4: to sign up. Bulky, your your magnetic personality and the
Speaker 4: effortvescence you bring to every activity, uh makes it better
Speaker 4: and it's uh. It was proven that with your inaugural
Speaker 4: trip to the Super Sunday League this year and then
Speaker 4: that weekend will never be we will if you're not coming,
Speaker 4: we in having it this.
Speaker 1: My son told me that because one of the big
Speaker 1: reasons I never could get away was he's always at
Speaker 1: basketball tournaments. And I think he's hanging up his basketball
Speaker 1: shoes after this season just to focus on football and baseball.
Speaker 1: So that is going to free up the weekend for me,
Speaker 1: which I will have no guilt of going to Kentucky
Speaker 1: and drafting a boatload of KFFF teams. You could draft
Speaker 1: a boatload of kffs teams right now. The main event
Speaker 1: is filling up free separate slow main events filling up
Speaker 1: right now. We have live drafts. The next live draft,
Speaker 1: I believe is tomorrow night at eight o'clock, and we
Speaker 1: got drafts going on all throughout the weekend, basically almost
Speaker 1: every single day through the start of the season. There
Speaker 1: is a big payback slow draft that has four teams left.
Speaker 1: I'm in that one, so make sure if you want
Speaker 1: to compete against me, that's a good one to jump
Speaker 1: in there. There is some spots live in Louisville and
Speaker 1: I believe in Cincinnati and stuff, but they're running out, pharrel.
Speaker 1: The live spots are un to go.
Speaker 4: Just you know, if you see something, if you want
Speaker 4: to play, give me a call.
Speaker 1: We'll figure it out. We'll get you in and find

Speaker 1: so that's one of them that I'm competing against. A
Speaker 1: lot of fun, a lot of fun playing in the
Speaker 1: kf f f C. Also a lot of fun playing
Speaker 1: in the FFPC. Don't forget about FFPC Player one. You
Speaker 1: versus eleven smart f FPC CPU players where you can
Speaker 1: go up against them and win prizes, free main event entries,
Speaker 1: free big Gorilla entries, whatever you want. Great thing about it,
Speaker 1: you register, you draft right away. You don't have to
Speaker 1: worry about eleven other players filling up your draft. You
Speaker 1: just draft against the eleven computer player immediately, which is great.
Speaker 1: My FFPC dot com is where to go for that.
Speaker 1: That is Player one, something we just introduced probably a
Speaker 1: couple of months ago, months ago or so, and that's
Speaker 1: been pretty popular. Check it out. There's a lot of
Speaker 1: people that didn't think they'd like it and now they're
Speaker 1: drafting a bunch of teams on it. My FFPC dot
Speaker 1: com is where to go for that. I want to
Speaker 1: thank Adam Rylott, I want to thank Farrell Elliott, the FFPC,
