Speaker 1: and welcome to Friday, April eighteen, twenty twenty five. It's
Speaker 1: going to be a banner show tonight as we kickoff.
Speaker 1: I don't want to say kickoff, because we're closing in
Speaker 1: on the thirteenth season or the fourteenth season of the
Speaker 1: high Stakes Fantasy Football Hour here on the FFPC family
Speaker 1: of podcasts. It's been quite a ride, and we have
Speaker 1: well over a thousand podcasts undertow and we are trying
Speaker 1: to figure out the best way to equip you guys
Speaker 1: for your rookie drafts, your dynasty drafts, your dynasty startup drafts,
Speaker 1: your redraft leagues which are going to be starting up
Speaker 1: here shortly, as well as the kf f f C
Speaker 1: leagues you are as well. Speaking of the kf f
Speaker 1: f C, why not bring in the Master of the
Speaker 1: kff C Ceremonies, the definitive Commissioner of Fantasy Football. You
Speaker 1: know them as j Farrell Elliott on the AX at
Speaker 1: kfff C official on the ACX. Please welcome in my
Speaker 1: co host for this evening, mister Farrell Elliott. Farrell, good evening, Welcome.
Speaker 1: How are you doing man?
Speaker 4: I'm doing really well. I may meet the master. I'm
Speaker 4: trying to figure out who won the the Sunrise at
Speaker 4: the Bourbon Turn Division last year, and I'm having trouble
Speaker 4: doing it.
Speaker 1: Was it was it Dom Dom? I thought Dom was
Speaker 1: next to me. Dom Gazzetti was next to me on that.
Speaker 4: I don't know. You know, Dom may have. Not only
Speaker 4: does the winner of that league get the the great
Speaker 4: respect of all the competitors, a wonderful championship trophy, but
Speaker 4: each year he will get a bourbon bottle from the
Speaker 4: Blyer Brothers Bourbon Company, signed by Rocky Blyer, a wonderful,
Speaker 4: beautiful bottle and a great collector's item. And we'll have
Speaker 4: another one coming from my associate Luke Blyer, who will
Speaker 4: be joining us live at the draft, and he'll bring
Speaker 4: another bottle of bourbon down for this year's winner. And
Speaker 4: it's interesting, Bulky. That's our seven thirty am Sunday, and
Speaker 4: it's always the first to sell out.
Speaker 1: You know. The thing is with with Luke and Rocky Blyer,
Speaker 1: Farrell Rocky Blyer, It's it's a painstaking process for me
Speaker 1: anytime I promote anything regarding Rocky Blyer, because he is
Speaker 1: from he hails from the great city in northeast Wisconsin, Appleton, Wisconsin,
Speaker 1: which is my hometown. I love it. Wonderful connectivity, yes, exactly.
Speaker 1: And and I was just I'm starting to show a
Speaker 1: little bit late tonight because I was in Green Bay
Speaker 1: earlier this evening or earlier this afternoon, trying to plot
Speaker 1: out because I'm going be broadcasting live from the NFL
Speaker 1: Draft for a lot of my shows next week up there,
Speaker 1: and I'm trying to figure out the best way home
Speaker 1: and trying to figure out you know, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: So what I what I want to bring up is
Speaker 1: Rocky Blyer is from Appleton. But Rocky Blyer played football
Speaker 1: for my art rival. I went to Foxvillle Luthern High
Speaker 1: School in Appleton, Wisconsin. Rocky Blyer was Appleton Xavier Catholics
Speaker 1: cool in Appleton, Wisconsin. So it's it's a weird thing
Speaker 1: for me. Man. I still hold Rocky bly I regard
Speaker 1: but at the same time, like this guy was like
Speaker 1: battling against my my uncles, my my my cousins. You know,
Speaker 1: it's it's it's wild man.
Speaker 4: Still waters run deep, don't they both?
Speaker 1: They do? They do? And UH and listen if I
Speaker 1: ever met I'm I'm a big fan boy. And when
Speaker 1: I'm broadcasting live at the NFL Draft in Green Bay
Speaker 1: coming up next week, if Rocky is around, I will
Speaker 1: definitely have them on my show because I would love to.
Speaker 1: I would love to bring that UH to to everybody.
Speaker 1: I want to bring everybody into what we're talking about
Speaker 1: tonight on the High six Fantasy Football Hour on UH
Speaker 1: the f f PC Family and podcasts. Holy cal Farrell,
Speaker 1: we are less than a week away from finding out.
Speaker 1: You know, you and I have been talking about all
Speaker 1: these rookies and and not only all these rookies, but
Speaker 1: all these veterans that are going to be affected by
Speaker 1: how these rookies are drafted over the course of three
Speaker 1: days here at Northeast Wisconsin for the last three months.
Speaker 1: And now we're finally coming to a head on this.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be it's gonna be compelling, it's gonna be unbelievable.
Speaker 1: We have Travis Hunter, a player that has you know,
Speaker 1: we've never seen before in the NFL. We've seen versions
Speaker 1: of him, but we've never seen anybody like him before.
Speaker 1: We have an underwhelming quarterback class. We have an underwhelming
Speaker 1: wide receiver class. We have an amazing tight end class.
Speaker 1: We have an amazing running back class. And I think
Speaker 1: that's what I want to lead in with you tonight.
Speaker 1: The FFPC never two early best ball tournaments are almost full.
Speaker 1: In fact, they might be full. I have to load
Speaker 1: it up right now, but they're very very close from
Speaker 1: being full. The orphans for the FFPC probably already taken.
Speaker 1: We have startup drafts starting at one hundred dollars and
Speaker 1: going up. We have a two hundred fifty dollars and
Speaker 1: five hundred dollars and a twenty five hundred dollars league
Speaker 1: that are very very close to fillings. So check that
Speaker 1: out and my ff PC my f f PC dot
Speaker 1: com and the Big Goerrilla Tournament over at m y
Speaker 1: FFPC dot com. A million dollar grand prize, including but
Speaker 1: not limited to a four person jungle safari if you
Speaker 1: get I in on hitting that seventh pick five times
Speaker 1: in a row with the seven bananas promo, the Early
Speaker 1: Rampage Promo as live as right right now. So if
Speaker 1: you are playing in the f f PC Big Goerilla
Speaker 1: Tournament and you join right now, you are basically getting
Speaker 1: in the Big Gorilla and the Early Rampage Tournament, two
Speaker 1: tournaments for the price of one entry fee. My f
Speaker 1: f PC dot Com is ready to go for that.
Speaker 4: I hope I win that safari because I'm going to
Speaker 4: turn it in and convert it to a trip to
Speaker 4: Detroit Sema Pal Bill Hollywood.
Speaker 1: Bill Hollywood was on the f f PC High Stakes
Speaker 1: Fantasy Football Show on the Better Sports Network last night
Speaker 1: and and Dom Gazetti was in the chat room as well.
Speaker 1: Farrell our good buddy, and Bill said, hey, why don't
Speaker 1: you join that FFPC or excuse me, the KFFFC Slow
Speaker 1: Main event and that would get us down to six
Speaker 1: and Dom said, okay, I will, And he's in. Dom
Speaker 1: is in. Bill Hollywood is in. Yours truly is in
Speaker 1: the first kff s C Slow Main event of the year.
Speaker 1: Check that out at KFFFC dot com. I am itching
Speaker 1: the draft and you should be true. So join that
Speaker 1: KFFFC dot com you get draftians, Dom, Bill, myself and
Speaker 1: a bunch of other luminaries here. Before we get into
Speaker 1: David Hubbard, the twenty sixteen FFPC main event champion, I
Speaker 1: want to talk about some of the things that are
Speaker 1: going around the NFL right now, included, but not limited to,
Speaker 1: Ashton Genty. Jonathan Jones, who covers the NFL or cbssports
Speaker 1: dot Com. Pharrell reporting that quote plenty around the league
Speaker 1: strongly believe the Raiders and I have to bring my
Speaker 1: chain out for this since we're talking Raiders. The Las
Speaker 1: Vegas Raiders have fallen in love with Boise State running
Speaker 1: back Ashton Genty. Jonathan Jones from CBS Sports. Again, as
Speaker 1: I quoted earlier, the quote here from Jones is one
Speaker 1: executive from an AFC team went so far as to say,
Speaker 1: it's a foregone conclusion that Las Vegas will take Ashton
Speaker 1: Genty with the number six pick. It would not qualify
Speaker 1: as a surprise that Pete Carroll is looking for his
Speaker 1: Marshawn Lynch and he probably has found him in Ashton
Speaker 1: Genty out of Boise State. The running back room in
Speaker 1: Las Vegas, Ferrell, as you could probably attest to, it's
Speaker 1: not great and it probably has been a lot better
Speaker 1: over the course of the years. But Ashton genty if
Speaker 1: he is added to this room, if he has added
Speaker 1: as the as the Belcow for not only the twenty
Speaker 1: twenty five season and beyond Holy Cow, that would be
Speaker 1: tremendous and be tremendous for Dynasty teams as well. If
Speaker 1: Ashton Gensy is picked by the Raiders at six, is
Speaker 1: he the one on one for you in rookie Dynasty drafts? Oh?
Speaker 4: I think he is no matter where he lands, but
Speaker 4: he's he'll be a one on one almost everywhere. You
Speaker 4: know eighty percent maybe do you think eighty percent that high?
Speaker 4: You put him back there with a veteran like Moster,
Speaker 4: that's a good combination of what you know. You you
Speaker 4: would think, well, Moster will come in and be a
Speaker 4: change of pace, a good, good catch back. But there's
Speaker 4: there's plenty of room for there. Akin to what you
Speaker 4: might see at at the at the Ravens with number
Speaker 4: forty three. That's Justice Hill and of course our beloved
Speaker 4: Derrick Henry.
Speaker 1: What do you make of Derrick Henry and Baltimore Farrell
Speaker 1: like like, I don't have this on the sheet, but
Speaker 1: I think it's compelling because he is thirty one years old.
Speaker 1: He's been awesome obviously, but with a strong running back
Speaker 1: class here and with Baltimore focusing in on that running
Speaker 1: back position, trying to find maybe not necessarily the next
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry, but the next guy that can take over
Speaker 1: for him. I think it's been not talked about enough,
Speaker 1: but that running back position for Baltimore. This is interesting
Speaker 1: as we you know, again not look at the end
Speaker 1: of the first round, but the end of the second round,
Speaker 1: the third round, or whatever whoever the Ravens draft at
Speaker 1: running back on Day two. This is right up there
Speaker 1: with the best you know, landing spots with anybody as
Speaker 1: far as running backs go. In the twenties twenty five
Speaker 1: NFL Draft.
Speaker 4: I think it's a good opportunity if you wanted to
Speaker 4: bring along the player. I think that team is has
Speaker 4: done well in the draft. They draft for specific and
Speaker 4: they draft players that fit their style, which is a
Speaker 4: little different from what you see from teams across the league.
Speaker 4: Is if the Ravens that the Ravens have always had
Speaker 4: a unique way to handle the combine and the numbers
Speaker 4: mean different things to them than they mean to most people,
Speaker 4: so they're always the most intriguing team or one of
Speaker 4: the most intriguing teams in the draft. I think if
Speaker 4: you do anything to take the ball out of Derrick
Speaker 4: Henry's hands, you're being foolish. But that being said, they've
Speaker 4: you know, they've always got the big running back, the
Speaker 4: big fullback that I like, there close to a three
Speaker 4: hundred pound volleyball. They've they've got Justice Hill, who we
Speaker 4: talked about previously. It'd be a hard way for a
Speaker 4: draft pick to get in and contribute very much, but
Speaker 4: you know, Bulky, it is a fifty three man roster
Speaker 4: with forty eight of them active, so we'll see.
Speaker 1: I think if you know, if you own Derrick Henry
Speaker 1: in Dynasty, if you have, if you already have drafted
Speaker 1: him in the first two or three rounds of your
Speaker 1: KFC or f FPC, Best Ball leagues or what have you,
Speaker 1: it's fine. But I'm telling you, like I just I
Speaker 1: feel like the way you succeed in Dynasty is getting
Speaker 1: these guys no you know, in your you know, late
Speaker 1: first round, early second round rookie drafts, keeping on your roster,
Speaker 1: and I think we have seen this last year, Parrell.
Speaker 1: I don't know how your Dynasty leaguess turned out, but
Speaker 1: I have been incubating Trey Benson. I have been incubating
Speaker 1: Blake Koram, And I think whoever the Ravens draft, probably
Speaker 1: not somebody on Day one, but whoever they draft on
Speaker 1: Friday in round one or excuse me, in round two
Speaker 1: or round three, man, that is gonna be an awesome
Speaker 1: player to have in twenty twenty six. And the reason
Speaker 1: you want to draft it's not necessarily, Hey, this guy's
Speaker 1: gonna be great this year. The reason you draft him
Speaker 1: is because you have him on your team. So after
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty five season, you're able to trade him,
Speaker 1: You're able to utilize him for the twenty twenty six season.
Speaker 1: Could be Caleb Johnson, it could be quinnch On Judkins.
Speaker 1: It could be a variety of players here. And I
Speaker 1: think that, well, twenty twenty five doesn't look great for
Speaker 1: a Ravens running back drafted this season, twenty twenty six
Speaker 1: could look awesome. And if you're in the the scenario
Speaker 1: of you want to you know, Sean Siegel has talked
Speaker 1: about this on many FFPC podcasts before this, this always
Speaker 1: you know, constantly reloading. You get that Ravens running back
Speaker 1: who Baltimore drafts on on Friday or maybe early Saturday.
Speaker 1: You can be looking at a huge boon for your
Speaker 1: fantasy Dynasty relevance going forward, not necessarily this year, but
Speaker 1: your years in twenty twenty six and years beyond.
Speaker 4: And we are extremely deep at the position this year.
Speaker 4: And we talked with you know, Chuck Root last week
Speaker 4: and I asked him, you know, six or seventh round
Speaker 4: pick of the rookie draft and in Dynasty, you know what,
Speaker 4: how you value that? And Jump did in particularly given
Speaker 4: a lot of value. And I talked about that's where
Speaker 4: I got the checko one year and it I've had
Speaker 4: so many texts and a few calls after the show
Speaker 4: last week of everyone wanting to tell me who they
Speaker 4: had gotten in the late rounds and how happy they
Speaker 4: were about it. And I think, Balky, you are spot
Speaker 4: on once again. Especially when you've got a deep running
Speaker 4: back and talented class like this, go out there and
Speaker 4: get you those running backs.
Speaker 1: I want to bring this up, Farrell, because we've been
Speaker 1: talking running backs. Let me let me talk about receivers
Speaker 1: here the Athletics. Colton Poncy, who covers the Lions, says
Speaker 1: that Brad Holmes, I'm gonna leave my Raiders thing on
Speaker 1: just for lack of another reason.
Speaker 4: We appreciate that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, thank you, Pharrell. Colton Pouncey, who covers the Lions
Speaker 1: for the Athletics, says that Brad Holmes, who is the GM,
Speaker 1: says he has quote less certain about extending Jamison Williams
Speaker 1: contract than he is for extending defensive end Aiden Hutchinson
Speaker 1: contract and safety Kirby Joseph's contract. Now, this is a
Speaker 1: reading between the line scenario for Colton Pouncy, a wide receiver,
Speaker 1: extending him in the NFL. Right now, it's not going
Speaker 1: to be cheap. It's been very expensive to Higgins is
Speaker 1: proof of that, right as the number two receiver for
Speaker 1: the Bengals signing a mint for Cincinnati going forward. Holmes
Speaker 1: says he'd like to add competition to the wide receiver
Speaker 1: room in Detroit, which is no surprise there. The Lions
Speaker 1: have said that they are going to pick up James
Speaker 1: and Williams fifth year option, but it's possible that they
Speaker 1: invest in another wide receiver, be it in round two,
Speaker 1: round three, round four, what have you in this year's
Speaker 1: draft and preparing for Jamison Williams signing for a bigger
Speaker 1: deal with a different team in twenty twenty six and
Speaker 1: beyond now pouncing the excuse me, The writer for.
Speaker 5: The Athletic who covers the Lions says that the team
Speaker 5: has not spent a first round, a second round, or
Speaker 5: a third round pick on a wide receiver since Jameson.
Speaker 1: Williams in twenty twenty two. I don't know if that
Speaker 1: means anything. I don't know if that is something significant.
Speaker 1: It could be either way here, But as we look
Speaker 1: at Jamison Williams Farrell not only in Best Ball this year,
Speaker 1: but in Dynasty in years to come, I'm kind of
Speaker 1: down on him. I always have been down on him
Speaker 1: for whatever reason. Maybe it's it's self imposed stuff with
Speaker 1: Jameson Williams over the years as far as how he
Speaker 1: has developed to an NFL player, I've always been down
Speaker 1: on him. But now I see this, I'm like, God,
Speaker 1: I'm even more down on him. And if the Lions
Speaker 1: end up drafting a wide receiver on Day two, I
Speaker 1: don't think they draft one on Day one, but if
Speaker 1: they draft a wide receiver on Day two, I'm really
Speaker 1: down on Jameson Williams. Your thoughts on drafting Jameson Williams
Speaker 1: and Best Ball this year, as well as if you
Speaker 1: have him in a dynasty league right now, in the
Speaker 1: KFFFC or the FFPC, how do you handle him properly.
Speaker 4: Let's draft James and Williams. Let's draft anyone from Detroit.
Speaker 4: Let's be in business with Detroit. That's a good move
Speaker 4: for fantasy football as far as contracts and people that
Speaker 4: follow those things. For a reason, we've got labor peace
Speaker 4: and we've got a CBA that expires in twenty thirty. However,
Speaker 4: those in the know will tell you that we're likely
Speaker 4: to get a new CBA before this one runs its
Speaker 4: full course, and the Lions may be looking to lock
Speaker 4: up defenders which are in short supply, along with the
Speaker 4: offensive linemen that are in short supply, and see how
Speaker 4: the market develops for the wide receiver. Cincinnati was very
Speaker 4: successful in waiting to sign their receivers. They paid for them, respectively,
Speaker 4: and they did it out of an available cash in
Speaker 4: the salary cap. We don't know exactly where the salary
Speaker 4: cap is going, but it is growing every year. And
Speaker 4: if we get a new CBA within the next eighteen
Speaker 4: or twenty four months, that will be reflected in some
Speaker 4: of those skill position wide receiver running back contracts, we'll
Speaker 4: probably see a gain in those, so and I wouldn't
Speaker 4: worry about having him as a Dynasty player. And I
Speaker 4: don't think he's Detroit specific. I think he's got a
Speaker 4: skill set. Maulkey. The reason that you are souring on
Speaker 4: him somewhat is he's named after an Irish whiskey and
Speaker 4: not a beloved bourbon of your choice here in Kentucky.
Speaker 4: So that's one of your that's deep in your psyche
Speaker 4: of why you can't get with it.
Speaker 1: As theogremmnger from Fantasy Points would say, shout out to
Speaker 1: theogrammager who is always giving constant shoutouts. This was this
Speaker 1: was a thing that happened Ferrell, And I think I
Speaker 1: might have mentioned this to you. THEO and many others
Speaker 1: two years ago were definitely in on Jamison Williams and
Speaker 1: they said how can we And I might have mentioned
Speaker 1: this on the show before. I apologize that I have
Speaker 1: right exactly, but they said, they said, how can we
Speaker 1: reference Jameson Williams on our podcast without people like knowing
Speaker 1: who we're talking about. So they had to come up
Speaker 1: with a nickname.
Speaker 4: For him, Yeah, Whiskey Bill.
Speaker 1: Whiskey Bill was the nickname.
Speaker 4: And nobody could break such a complicated cold.
Speaker 1: So here's the thing. So right, so Whiskey Bill is
Speaker 1: how we will refer to him. We were carrying this
Speaker 1: over from from Fantasy Points and THEO Gremmager. Whiskey Bill.
Speaker 1: Will he be a Lion after his fifth year contract
Speaker 1: or fifth year option is picked up? We don't know,
Speaker 1: but Farrell has already let you know his thoughts on him.
Speaker 1: I happen to agree with Farrell on a lot of this.
Speaker 1: And so we move on to the Houston Texans. Farrell
Speaker 1: ESPNS DJ B Enemy has reported that the tech and
Speaker 1: this may not be breaking news, but the Houston Texans
Speaker 1: are expected to quote ad receivers in the twenty twenty
Speaker 1: five NFL Draft after Nico Collins in the Houston wide
Speaker 1: receiver room. It's not great. Bob Stefon Diggs is no
Speaker 1: more in Houston. He has departed via free agency. Tank
Speaker 1: Tell may not play at all in twenty twenty five
Speaker 1: because he had that need dislocation towards the end of
Speaker 1: the season and he tore multiple ligaments there. The team
Speaker 1: has traded for Christian Kirk, which obviously helps. They've signed
Speaker 1: Justin Watson, which I don't want to say obviously helps,
Speaker 1: but on the service it helps along with Braxton Barrios
Speaker 1: from the Miami Dolphins who's joined the Houston Texans. And
Speaker 1: by the way, Braxton Barrios towards ACL last year, so
Speaker 1: he's recovering from that on his own. You are looking
Speaker 1: at Collins, you are looking at Barrios, Kirk, and Justin
Speaker 1: Watson as the top four receivers in Houston right now.
Speaker 1: That is going to change. Kirk is going to be
Speaker 1: joined by Collins and somebody else in the draft right now.
Speaker 1: I think that the thing we have to understand right now,
Speaker 1: as tempting as it is to take Christian Kirk in
Speaker 1: best ball drafts right now and trading for him for
Speaker 1: pennies on the dollar, the Houston Texans receiver that you
Speaker 1: want to own is unknown to us right now. He
Speaker 1: is going to be a guy that's drafted in the
Speaker 1: second round. He's going to be a draft a guy
Speaker 1: that's drafted in the third round. And I think that's
Speaker 1: who you want to own, not only in dynasty leagues, Pharaoh,
Speaker 1: but in redraft leagues as well, and not.
Speaker 4: A particularly deep draft at the wide receiver position. Bulkie
Speaker 4: not the top end speed that we've seen amongst some
Speaker 4: receivers over the years. Yeah, and you know, we've got
Speaker 4: a textan waiting in the green room. Who's who knows
Speaker 4: more about fantasy football than anyone who has spoken or
Speaker 4: anyone who has written here about any of these things.
Speaker 4: But it's Houston has gone out that the thing that
Speaker 4: says to me that they don't have the receiver that
Speaker 4: they want. They've gone out signed three of the same guys.
Speaker 4: Uh yeah, and that's that's probably back. Two of them
Speaker 4: are hurt. You know, as Corey Walters points out, it
Speaker 4: reminds us Kirk is hurt. And you know, uh, you've
Speaker 4: got a receiver here in Barrios that is recovering from
Speaker 4: an injury. And you know, Barrios is a complimentary player
Speaker 4: at best. So yeah, there's there's some guys. There's some
Speaker 4: guys coming here. And what does Tank dale way? Was
Speaker 4: it like in the one fifties?
Speaker 1: It's not in the one fifties. It's heavier than that, but.
Speaker 4: That you know, and Tank Dell is a player that
Speaker 4: had issues to but boy, you know, but let's just
Speaker 4: talk about the good stuff fantasy football. You got Nico
Speaker 4: Collins and you know you got Nico Collins. How happy
Speaker 4: you should be?
Speaker 1: What's ironic here when we talk about Tank Dell's weight,
Speaker 1: Ferrell as we as we bring on our guests here tonight. Shortly,
Speaker 1: You and I have dined at Joe's Stone Crab, Yes Vegas. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And what's interesting is you and I have both not
Speaker 1: each of us, oh, I should say each of us.
Speaker 1: We have each eaten Stone Crab in the weight equivalent
Speaker 1: to Tank Dell on different occasions. Tank Dell weighs in
Speaker 1: at one hundred and sixty five pounds. Farrell, you and
Speaker 1: I have tag team to eat in Las Vegas. Damn
Speaker 1: near three hundred and forty pounds of stone Crab and
Speaker 1: Tank Dell and weighs in hundred and sixty five. That's
Speaker 1: not great. That's not good. It's great for me, it's
Speaker 1: not great. Take out.
Speaker 4: Yeah, get Doc got youson to tell you about his story.
Speaker 4: And you know, we had another thing we wanted to
Speaker 4: talk about with Mark Andrews. Only we want to get
Speaker 4: our hope. We want to get our guests out here
Speaker 4: and maybe we can get him invouted that Andrews out.
Speaker 1: Well, maybe we can't. I'm gonna bring him in right now. Yeah,
Speaker 1: bring him in, and quite frankly, I think we'll have audio.
Speaker 1: I don't know if we have video, but that's okay. Uh.
Speaker 1: This is a guy.
Speaker 4: Who you must need to get a haircut for Easter,
Speaker 4: or he got a haircut for Easter and he's not
Speaker 4: happy about how it looks.
Speaker 1: Well, definitely I need a haircut for Easter.
Speaker 4: Well, you don't need a haircut. He looks like you
Speaker 4: put a little shoe polished in that beard, just dartning
Speaker 4: up on you.
Speaker 1: You know. I put some oil and some pamon in it.
Speaker 4: You look good. You some pamon. You put some of
Speaker 4: the pamond.
Speaker 1: But I will say this, my my my history on
Speaker 1: this show is there's a hole in it, Farrell, because
Speaker 1: I had this guy on. God, I don't know how
Speaker 1: many years ago it was, and now we're friendly bringing
Speaker 1: him back. This is not quite ten years, not quite
Speaker 1: ten years, but it's pretty close to ten years. This
Speaker 1: is a guy who is the most accomplished, and I'm
Speaker 1: gonna say, arguably, for all this he's arguably the most accomplished.
Speaker 1: He's arguably the highest winner. He's arguably the guy who
Speaker 1: has won the most money over the course of the
Speaker 1: last ten years in the FFPC be at the main event,
Speaker 1: the Football Guys Players Championship, the Fantasy Pros Championship, the
Speaker 1: Big Gorilla this year, as well as the Best Ball Tournament.
Speaker 1: You follow him on the X and I should have
Speaker 1: this up right now, and I don't have him, but
Speaker 1: I promise you I will get it. He won it
Speaker 1: with Nelson Sousa the main event in twenty sixteen. A
Speaker 1: guy who is no stranger to these airwaves. He is
Speaker 1: David Hubbard. And I'm trying to bring him on right
Speaker 1: now and trying to bring him on and introduction. I know,
Speaker 1: it's a beauty of an introduction.
Speaker 4: And it's kind of like when Carson would introduce Sinatra
Speaker 4: and he wouldn't quit talking about him. You know, It's like,
Speaker 4: what do you say? And then he would say all
Speaker 4: these things and all of them are true. The thing
Speaker 4: I love about Hubbard, you know, he'll saddle up to
Speaker 4: me in Las Vegas and he'll always say something that
Speaker 4: that makes you feel really good about yourself.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 4: And I think he's uh. I think he's a great
Speaker 4: ambassador for the hobby and and availability is his greatest ability,
Speaker 4: and and you know he's just he's just the same
Speaker 4: guy with all guys I really do enjoy.
Speaker 6: All right.
Speaker 4: So he's muted too, he's muted and and.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to unmute him right now.
Speaker 4: And this is he just needs to reach out here
Speaker 4: and hit that little there he.
Speaker 1: Is, okay, So so we got dad David Hubbard, Ladies
Speaker 1: and gentlemen, welcome aboard my friend. Happy April to you.
Speaker 1: Good evening, David. What's been up? What's been up with you?
Speaker 1: What what's going on?
Speaker 6: Good? Uh? Hey, Bucky, Sorry about the delay. I couldn't
Speaker 6: figure this thing out like you screamed yard before, but
Speaker 6: for whatever reason, it was taking me through all kinds
Speaker 6: of hoops and I couldn't get on here.
Speaker 4: Hey, Phara, good to see you, brother.
Speaker 6: I run it a little late to My wife had
Speaker 6: me feeding cows and donkeys and chickens tonight and I
Speaker 6: couldn't get through with the chores in time to get
Speaker 6: here on time. But well made it.
Speaker 4: Listen a genuine farmer, he and goodman. Yeah, yeah, the
Speaker 4: reasons I love him.
Speaker 1: You are too kind, Like a lot of people who
Speaker 1: have seen you in the draft rooms, David with the
Speaker 1: bestball Tournament, the Big Gorilla or whatever they're They're like, Oh,
Speaker 1: I'm so excited to see Dave on the high stakes
Speaker 1: Fantasy Football our tonight because I know if I'm drafting
Speaker 1: in the late draft tonight, which you're not drafting in,
Speaker 1: I don't have to deal with him because they're gonna
Speaker 1: be on the air with us tonight, which is great,
Speaker 1: and I'm so thankful for you for you doing that.
Speaker 1: So so let's lead off here tonight, and I want
Speaker 1: to start in Green Bay, which is where the draft
Speaker 1: will be in less than a week. Marshawn Lloyd was
Speaker 1: drafted by the Packers last year in the second round
Speaker 1: and had a really really rough training camp, a really
Speaker 1: rough freshman season in the NFL, especially when you consider
Speaker 1: how good Josh Jacobs was and then you go to
Speaker 1: Emmanuel Wilson and Chris Brooks and what have you. But
Speaker 1: as we draft in the Never Too Early Bastball Tournament,
Speaker 1: the Big Gorilla Tournament right now, Marshaon Lloyd is still
Speaker 1: a part of the Green Bay Packers. He was still
Speaker 1: a second round pick last year. David, I'm obviously setting
Speaker 1: you up for this right now. Why should we not
Speaker 1: forget about Marshawn Lloyd for twenty twenty five drafts this season.
Speaker 6: You must be looking at my exposures in drafts or something,
Speaker 6: because I started doing I'm won a big beastball guy
Speaker 6: to the last couple of years. It's a learning curve.
Speaker 6: Bestball to redraft. It's definitely a different game than draft.
Speaker 6: And now I'm like addicted to the best ball. So
Speaker 6: I did a ton of the nearly number two early
Speaker 6: best balls, and to me, Marshawn Lloyd was like the
Speaker 6: true value of all those drafts. People getting enamored with
Speaker 6: the rookies and they want to draft the rookies. This
Speaker 6: guy's has the pedigree. I think the guy's gonna be
Speaker 6: a huge part of their game. I think they overused
Speaker 6: Josh Jacobs last year, and I think they're gonna cut
Speaker 6: him back and use Lloyd a lot more this year.
Speaker 6: And maybe I'm giving some information away. It's gonna help
Speaker 6: some other people. But Marshawn Lloyd is like just a
Speaker 6: free free click for me and all these drafts.
Speaker 4: You know, I'm adding him to my list. Hush, Okay,
Speaker 4: this is gonna I'm gonna I got a two part question.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna go a little off strip. The first one
Speaker 4: on going is on script. I like trying to focus
Speaker 4: and capture players that are on very good teams. Buffalo
Speaker 4: Bill's I'm always looking at Buffalo Bill's a very good team. Uh,
Speaker 4: they got running backs, they got our Kentucky and Ray Davis,
Speaker 4: they got James Cook. Is their preference? Can one of
Speaker 4: them become a fantasy scorer that you would that you
Speaker 4: would look to start all the time?
Speaker 6: Definitely. I think there's a real chance they could move Cook.
Speaker 6: I mean Cooking. The Buffalo Bills don't or not see
Speaker 6: an eye to eye right now. He wants a lot
Speaker 6: of money. He might be one of those guys that says,
Speaker 6: I mean he performed and they don't want to pay
Speaker 6: a running back. So it's not gonna shock me if
Speaker 6: Cook's not a Buffalo Bill when the season kicks off.
Speaker 6: Ray Davis is another guy that has a lot of
Speaker 6: value in draft right now, and I don't think he'll
Speaker 6: move up until till that happens, so you'll be able
Speaker 6: to You can get Ray Davis at no cost, and
Speaker 6: James Cook's kind of an unknown and you might overpay
Speaker 6: for James Cook right now.
Speaker 4: Question. This is the one I'm really really interested in
Speaker 4: because we asked this damn question about Cooks and Davis
Speaker 4: every week. Here's one. I made a trade in Dynasty
Speaker 4: a future draft pick, I think, like a second pick
Speaker 4: to acquire Mark Andrews last week, and I think a
Speaker 4: lot of people begin to think Mark Andrews is through.
Speaker 4: But eleven touchdowns last year, a string of six games
Speaker 4: I think at the end of season, scoring in each game,
Speaker 4: plus the consistency and the production out of very few
Speaker 4: targets make me think that Andrews lead he gets healthy
Speaker 4: and comes back. You know, he missed the two games
Speaker 4: in September, very little contribution in the two games I
Speaker 4: think in Week three or four, and I think that
Speaker 4: soured a lot of fantasy players on him. Andrews has
Speaker 4: to be sliding down from what we've traditionally seen him
Speaker 4: in the drafts. Did I make a good trade and
Speaker 4: are you targeting Andrews at a depressed price this year?
Speaker 6: Andrews is an interesting guy this year. I've seen him
Speaker 6: go in the sixth round, early sixth round of drafts,
Speaker 6: which is if he returned to for him, you know,
Speaker 6: what people remember about him was that he dropped that
Speaker 6: big pass in the playoffs that kind of left everybody
Speaker 6: with a sour days and that's why there's probably rumblings
Speaker 6: about him moving. But I'm not so sure the Ravens
Speaker 6: want to move on for him. Think they're happy with
Speaker 6: Likely and Andrews both playing. And uh yeah, Andrews in
Speaker 6: some drafts has definitely been a value I've seen. I've
Speaker 6: gotten him in the ninth round of some of those
Speaker 6: early early Bastball drafts, which I think is a really
Speaker 6: good value. But he's living pretty much in the seventh
Speaker 6: round of the drafts, and because to be unknown about
Speaker 6: whether he moves to another team, and then Likely's value
Speaker 6: spikes and likely lives in like the tenth to eleven
Speaker 6: twelfth round. If Andrews moved, Likely would do what he's
Speaker 6: gonna go way up the board right right and Andrews
Speaker 6: depending on where he goes. But I think I think
Speaker 6: they like Andrews, and I don't think Andrews is going anywhere.
Speaker 4: I think John Terry has already had too much ginger
Speaker 4: all of the night.
Speaker 1: No, I get what he's saying. It's fine, you do please, Okay,
Speaker 1: So he is saying Andrews is not done, but Baltimore
Speaker 1: is going to trade Mark Andrews for his own personal safety.
Speaker 1: Not saying I agree with it, but I understand what.
Speaker 4: That's always, That's always every general manager.
Speaker 6: That drop pass was horrible, There's no doubt about it.
Speaker 6: But so David, like Lamar said, after that game, the
Speaker 6: game for the NFL game, you can't blame one play
Speaker 6: on It could be a series of plays. That's just
Speaker 6: the one that's magnified because it happened at the end
Speaker 6: of the game. There's other reasons why they lost that game.
Speaker 1: So so David, that begs the question here, Like you know,
Speaker 1: you have a lot of NFL fans looking at how
Speaker 1: the Ravens lost that game, and they put it on
Speaker 1: Mark Andrews. He had another bad drop of that game.
Speaker 1: Do you feel like, hey, when you see something like
Speaker 1: that at the end of the season and then the
Speaker 1: best ball season and redraft season with Big Gorilla, the
Speaker 1: never too early tournaments in the NFPC start up in January,
Speaker 1: do you feel like, hey, I should capitalize on that.
Speaker 1: Everybody's down on Mark Andrews as a Raven in twenty
Speaker 1: twenty five, do you feel like he is being unfairly downgraded?
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying just Mark Andrews, but there's other
Speaker 1: players like that where you're like, I should be cashing
Speaker 1: in on this guy right now, because in June and July,
Speaker 1: I'll never get this guy cheaper than what he is now.
Speaker 6: It's human nature balky on anything, and people only see
Speaker 6: what happened with recency bias is what a lot of
Speaker 6: people call it in fantasy football. That's what the most
Speaker 6: recent thing happened with him. They forget that he's been
Speaker 6: an All Pro tight end and dominate the NFL. He's
Speaker 6: a mismatch nightmare. The kid also has Type one diabetes,
Speaker 6: which is not a bargain for anybody to deal with
Speaker 6: UH in life. So that's that's another factor he deals with.
Speaker 6: But his talent is is unquestioned. And I think Lamar
Speaker 6: really likes the guy. I think they're like.
Speaker 4: Really on his face after that game and after that play.
Speaker 1: And.
Speaker 4: I think you'll never drop another one, you know. I mean,
Speaker 4: I've never seen a player just so mournfully in pain.
Speaker 6: And all all you hear from teammates coaches is the
Speaker 6: guys the hardest worker on the team and and does
Speaker 6: everything the right way. He's a leader. I mean football
Speaker 6: it happens. I means to every play great players, not
Speaker 6: great players. You drop balls in big situations, you don't
Speaker 6: make the play. I mean babbled that extra point against set,
Speaker 6: Yeah players.
Speaker 1: David brought it up as well. Already, this is a
Speaker 1: guy who's already had the battle through so much, being
Speaker 1: a top type one diabetes guy with with Mark Andrews, Like,
Speaker 1: you're gonna tell me that that guy who's had to
Speaker 1: outwork everybody through high school through college the pros, Like
Speaker 1: this is not gonna ring true harder than it would
Speaker 1: with another random wide receiver, random tight end.
Speaker 6: Like He's not just gonna give up because of that.
Speaker 1: And and I think that that bodes well for him,
Speaker 1: whether it's on Baltimore this year or if they move
Speaker 1: on from him and they train into somebody else. I'm
Speaker 1: still dialed in on Mark Andrews for sure, no matter.
Speaker 6: The Baltimore have to get a would have to get
Speaker 6: a sweet deal for him for them to move.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I don't know if they'll get it, David
Speaker 1: like like if they might, they might not, But regardless,
Speaker 1: I'm just kind of like I'm dialed in on him,
Speaker 1: whoever he is playing for in twenty twenty five. I
Speaker 1: like it. The AFC is where the Ravens are, and
Speaker 1: it's where the Dolphins are as well. And that's my
Speaker 1: next question here. Jalen Wright is a player that I
Speaker 1: drafted on a few of my dynasty leagues. I have
Speaker 1: him in a few of my best ball leagues so
Speaker 1: far this year. And I'm playing Devil's advocate a little
Speaker 1: bit here, mister Hubbard. And to get your thoughts on
Speaker 1: Jalen Right, how confident are you in Jalen Wright being
Speaker 1: the backup to Devon A Chan this year? With Raheem
Speaker 1: moster at in Las Vegas, you know, with the Raiders.
Speaker 1: As I rep the Raiders to tonight, how confident are
Speaker 1: you that Jalen Wright will be the backup? And the
Speaker 1: Dolphins aren't going to be drafting somebody on Day one
Speaker 1: or Day two of the NFL Draft that will be
Speaker 1: the h Chan backup this year that will either you know,
Speaker 1: compete with touches for Right or overtake Right. I have
Speaker 1: Right on a few of my teams, and I'm just
Speaker 1: kind of wondering how you feel about Right for the
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five season.
Speaker 6: You're kind of locked in the night. Right and Marshall
Speaker 6: and Lauder Lloyd are very similar backs. Second year backs
Speaker 6: have both really talented backs that the team invested quite
Speaker 6: a bit in to get. They have draft capital, right,
Speaker 6: they have the coaches like them, and I think writes
Speaker 6: another guy that's probably miss price right now in the
Speaker 6: running back market, I would definitely be a buyer where
Speaker 6: he goes in drafts and redraft and basketball.
Speaker 4: Good Man, good Man, you know, buying in running backs
Speaker 4: this year is something that I think is going to
Speaker 4: be very very popular when we go to our dynasty
Speaker 4: rookie drafts and when we head to the main event.
Speaker 4: After watching some of these guys play in the preseason,
Speaker 4: the landing spot specific player that I am most interested
Speaker 4: in is Kansas State wildcat DJ Geinnings. I watched this
Speaker 4: player run for one hundred and eighty yards I think
Speaker 4: it was against Oklahoma State, and then he came back
Speaker 4: against Colorado, I think Oklahoma State he ran for one
Speaker 4: hundred and eighty yards. I said, well, that guy'll never
Speaker 4: have that game again. The next week he ran for
Speaker 4: the same thing. And you know it's just he can
Speaker 4: catch the ball pretty well. If your thoughts on Giddings,
Speaker 4: I did take note that you're Houston Cougar's shut him
Speaker 4: down a little bit when he came down there, but nevertheless, Yeah,
Speaker 4: Giddins is a player. I'm interested in your thoughts on
Speaker 4: this player. I know you're familiar with it.
Speaker 6: I'm a huge DJ Gettings fan. I mean, I think
Speaker 6: arguably he's The running backs are in this class are
Speaker 6: like crazy good. This may be the best class I've
Speaker 6: ever evaluated that I can remember. From a running back standpoint.
Speaker 6: I think it's the best running back class in the
Speaker 6: history of the NFL.
Speaker 1: Okay, hold on, I'm gonna stop here right there, David,
Speaker 1: because you were drafting back in twenty seventeen when we
Speaker 1: had Fournette and McCaffrey mixing and Aaron Jones and James
Speaker 1: Connor and all those guys. But you're saying twenty twenty
Speaker 1: five is actually better than that class.
Speaker 6: I think this class is the best class in the
Speaker 6: last twenty years. I really do, talent wise, and Gettings
Speaker 6: is right there with all of them. And we talk
Speaker 6: about gen T, talk about Hampton, all those guys. There's
Speaker 6: a litany up you can't start. I find a new
Speaker 6: guy every day. I watch football film right down. This
Speaker 6: is my all season, and literally all I do is
Speaker 6: I don't play poker much anymore. I literally watch film
Speaker 6: every day I find a new running back, and I've
Speaker 6: never done this as long as I've been watching film
Speaker 6: and evaluate players, keeping notes on players, I find a
Speaker 6: new running back I like in this class every day
Speaker 6: of the week. It's crazy. There's gonna be a lot
Speaker 6: of undrafted free agentc that are gonna stick. If I
Speaker 6: was a running back on some of these teams, I
Speaker 6: would be scared for my job because some of these
Speaker 6: guys aren't gonna have a job. Because these guys are
Speaker 6: gonna come in and take their jobs, They're not a
Speaker 6: doubt in my mind.
Speaker 1: I think this works in your favorite David, because I
Speaker 1: know you're not a you don't play dynasty or whatever,
Speaker 1: so it's easier for you to say, like, hey, these
Speaker 1: veterans that have been on these NFL teams last there
Speaker 1: of three years. I have no interest in drafting him
Speaker 1: in Best Ball. I have no interest in drafting him
Speaker 1: in the Big Gorilla, because you know that once these
Speaker 1: rookies hit, it like it. Pat Fitzmorris from Fantasy Pros
Speaker 1: said this is gonna be the biggest retirement party in
Speaker 1: the history of the NFL. With all these running backs
Speaker 1: this year is Elliott and all these guys like that,
Speaker 1: that's what's gonna happen, right, because all these rookies are
Speaker 1: gonna take it over. And like, yeah, I mean, you know,
Speaker 1: you're not going to overdraft these guys. But at the
Speaker 1: end of best ball drafts, the end of big guerilla
Speaker 1: drafts or what have you, like, these are the players
Speaker 1: you want to be investing in, Not Elliott, not not
Speaker 1: these other you know, not Ezekiel Elliott. Oh yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't know.
Speaker 6: I don't personally play dynasty, but I talked to Austin Martin,
Speaker 6: who maybe is the best player in the world, and
Speaker 6: we talk every day about different scenarios and I pick
Speaker 6: his brain, he picks my brain, and we agree that
Speaker 6: this class is like unbelievable.
Speaker 1: It's insane. It's insane, and like, you know, and the thing,
Speaker 1: if it is is like and I'll be watching this draft.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be in person in Green Bay live watching
Speaker 1: this draft. I don't know how good these running backs
Speaker 1: are going to be because some of them are going
Speaker 1: to be drafted in the fourth round, the fifth round,
Speaker 1: and they could be the backups to whatever team drafts them.
Speaker 1: Because that's how good. This classes is going to be
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty five. To your point, farh. DJ Giddens
Speaker 1: one hundred and eighty seven yards against Oklahoma State this
Speaker 1: past year. The very next week against the fight in
Speaker 1: Sanders of the Colorado Buffaloes went for one hundred and
Speaker 1: eighty two yards. He tacked on three plus hundred yard
Speaker 1: rushing performances over the course of the remainder of the season.
Speaker 1: Twenty one catches over the course of this season doesn't
Speaker 1: matter for me. I am teaming DJ Giddens with David
Speaker 1: Hubbard as well. I think this is guy that you're
Speaker 1: gonna want on your dynasty teams. This guy you're gonna
Speaker 1: want on your basketball teams as well.
Speaker 6: His vision an acceleration once he gets past the first.
Speaker 4: Level is like crazy long speed.
Speaker 6: It was and all that, but you don't really you
Speaker 6: haven't seen a lot of DJ giinnings. I liked set
Speaker 6: and watch some tape on it for a few minutes.
Speaker 6: Then you know, if you like running backs, you're gonna
Speaker 6: fall in love with that kid.
Speaker 1: I just feel like it's all about athleticism when you
Speaker 1: get into round two and round three, like, give me
Speaker 1: the guys who have the talent that cannot be coached right.
Speaker 1: Devin Neil is a good example of this. Devin Neil,
Speaker 1: I feel like, Okay, well you can. You can work
Speaker 1: with him to a certain point, but at a certain
Speaker 1: point his athleticism limitations will probably warrant him being a
Speaker 1: round three, round four pick in your dynasty draft or
Speaker 1: a late round pick in your Best Ball draft. DJ Giddens,
Speaker 1: that's a guy who can be coached up because he's
Speaker 1: got the natural talent. Give me the guys with the explosion,
Speaker 1: the speed, everything like that what Giddins has. Michelle Touton
Speaker 1: is another guy, and uh Brishard Smith is another guy
Speaker 1: really like and I think that those are the people
Speaker 1: that we need to be paying attention to if you
Speaker 1: want to win your your Best Ball leagues, your your
Speaker 1: Donas leagues. Those are the running backs I'd be concentrating on. Okay,
Speaker 1: let's move to a wide receiver here. David uh dk
Speaker 1: metcalf is no longer a Seattle Seahawk. He is going
Speaker 1: to be a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Whether that's
Speaker 1: catching balls from Mason Rudolph or Aaron Rodgers or Terry Bradshaw.
Speaker 1: I have no idea at this point right now. But
Speaker 1: how does DK Metcalf's presence in Pittsburgh affect George Pickens?
Speaker 1: How have you been handling Pickens in your Best Ball
Speaker 1: and Big Gorilla drafts right now? With the FFPC.
Speaker 6: Yeah, the problem with Pickings the Metcalf is the unknown.
Speaker 6: Right we don't know who the quarterback is gonna be.
Speaker 6: The offensive coordinator is an issue. Uh, they both have.
Speaker 6: I mean you can't question the talent. The talents there.
Speaker 6: They could beat anybody one on one and one on
Speaker 6: one matchups. So I think if they get the right quarterback,
Speaker 6: there are two guys that are reasonably priced in these
Speaker 6: drafts right now. Pickens is probably underpriced. DK's probably about
Speaker 6: right when he's priced. Maybe he has room for a
Speaker 6: sub upside, but it's going to depend on who lands
Speaker 6: at quarterback there and then you have to overcome the
Speaker 6: Arthur Smith play calling. But if the right quarterback gets there,
Speaker 6: maybe that helps. We'll see. But I think both guys
Speaker 6: are reasonably priced in drafts right now.
Speaker 4: You know, we're talking about these prices bulky, and we're
Speaker 4: forty something minutes into the show and we haven't said
Speaker 4: one thing about Mojoe and where some of these guys
Speaker 4: are Oh yeah, would you mind going to mister Armandi's
Speaker 4: service and looking up something for me from the Never
Speaker 4: Too Early Yeah? Absolutely, So I would like to know
Speaker 4: about the aging Tyreek Hill yep, and the non productive
Speaker 4: Jaylen Waddell. So I think and Dave. My opinion on
Speaker 4: Wadell has been I got this one right now. Watch
Speaker 4: people draft to him all the time, and I you know,
Speaker 4: fifty something catches last year, he got most of them
Speaker 4: in two games and two touchdowns the year before four touchdowns.
Speaker 4: The question I was going to ask you, does he
Speaker 4: have a bounce back year? I don't think a bounce
Speaker 4: back year is an him, And even if he does,
Speaker 4: he's not. Even if he were to have the bounce
Speaker 4: back to the previous year's numbers, those aren't numbers that
Speaker 4: are going to excite me. I would So I made
Speaker 4: my mind up on waddle I don't know about Hill
Speaker 4: thirty one, but still such a special athlete. And then
Speaker 4: there's the quarterback issues, Balky, you got you got draft
Speaker 4: spots on these guys.
Speaker 1: I do, yeah, absolutely. In the FFPC Never Too Early
Speaker 1: Best Ball Tournament ADP, which we're going to cite Fantasy
Speaker 1: Mojo and Joe on this Fantasymojo dot com at Fantasy
Speaker 1: Mojo on the ex the Godfather of the FFPC pros
Speaker 1: versus Shows Challenge. If you are playing in the FFPC,
Speaker 1: highly recommend you get a subscription to semojo dot com
Speaker 1: to set yourself apart from everybody else draffing in the FFP.
Speaker 1: See Tyreek Hill in the Never Too Early Basketball Tournament
Speaker 1: over the last week has been going as wide receiver
Speaker 1: fifteen Farrell. He is going on average at the three
Speaker 1: oh six. Now, Jalen Waddle, you have to go all
Speaker 1: all the way down to wide receiver thirty three at
Speaker 1: the six eight. This is Chris o'lave, Jordan Addison, Jerry
Speaker 1: Judy territory. So Waddle going way later. You're looking at
Speaker 1: three plus rounds later than Tyreek Hill here.
Speaker 4: But five rounds ahead of Pittman. Just going to throw
Speaker 4: that in there, funds ahead of Wattle, who oftentimes doesn't
Speaker 4: get it, doesn't necessarily play. He's been heard he's had
Speaker 4: some injuries. He you know, I remind everyone of that
Speaker 4: Pittman played last year with a broken back. Everyone says
Speaker 4: an injuries, But enough about Pittman, Dave. I think he'll
Speaker 4: might be right Wattle, you know, a single digit draft
Speaker 4: pick for this player. I think you ought'll be a
Speaker 4: twelve rounder.
Speaker 6: It depends to be on Wadle. Waddle has the talent.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 6: If there's a lot of noise about Tarik maybe moving
Speaker 6: on to so Tarik moved on, Wada would go up
Speaker 6: the board. There's no doubt about it, because then he
Speaker 6: would be the number one there and they would feature
Speaker 6: him more. The problem with Waddle is he disappears in
Speaker 6: some games, like you're talking about so yeah. And then
Speaker 6: back to the one great thing about this year and drafting,
Speaker 6: Parrell's gonna be able to own all the Michael Pittman
Speaker 6: he wants because he's like forgotten people.
Speaker 4: I'm running him down.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 4: He's gonna be my eighteenth round wonder. And when you
Speaker 4: come to Kentucky this year, though, you with.
Speaker 6: That every year, but I haven't made it yet.
Speaker 4: You will have. I gotta tell him storybook because we're
Speaker 4: gonna go over anyway. Dave is committed to coming. This
Speaker 4: might have been twenty three think and then Houston had
Speaker 4: the weather, the the August hurricane, and I called to
Speaker 4: check on how he was doing. He says, I'm fine,
Speaker 4: but this is what it looks like to my house.
Speaker 4: And the telephone polls were like this, they were they
Speaker 4: were they were almost Yeah, it was just and I said,
Speaker 4: I'll be damn uh we uh we're gonna miss We're
Speaker 4: gonna miss that uh at Hubbard again. But this is
Speaker 4: your year. Year's your year. I was just in Houston
Speaker 4: enjoyed a NonStop flight from Houston to Louisville. I was
Speaker 4: here before I ever, you know, quick flight. Yeah, this
Speaker 4: is your year, sir, all right, I'll be there for
Speaker 4: all right.
Speaker 1: So do you hear that commitment?
Speaker 4: Bunk?
Speaker 1: I heard it. I heard it, and I'm I'm I'm
Speaker 1: noting it here.
Speaker 4: Yeah, man, this is my year twenty.
Speaker 1: Five, all right. So I want to get so the
Speaker 1: the the input is pouring in on YouTube right now,
Speaker 1: David and I want to get to a much of
Speaker 1: this as we can. I don't know if you have
Speaker 1: thought on this, but Rubio, my good buddy, he wants
Speaker 1: to know what are your thoughts on Lamb freaking Laris
Speaker 1: and Lamb Larisson is a running back that and listen
Speaker 1: if you're not playing in Dynasty, and maybe you don't
Speaker 1: care about him if you're playing in basketball. Maybe you
Speaker 1: care about him a little like I don't have strong
Speaker 1: thoughts on this guy. I know that he is building
Speaker 1: up a following for Layton Bestball Drafts and Layton Dynasty
Speaker 1: Rooky Drafts. David, do you have anything to say about
Speaker 1: Lamb Larison or is this the guy that you've been avoiding.
Speaker 1: I don't know how you feel about it.
Speaker 6: I haven't watched a lot of tape on the kids,
Speaker 6: so I'd have to go and watch tape where I
Speaker 6: had a formal opinion on him. I haven't watched a
Speaker 6: lot of tape on Lamb Larson, to be honest with.
Speaker 1: You, which is fine. Now these guys you should know
Speaker 1: a little bit more than Lamb Larisson. Tom wants to know,
Speaker 1: and I do believe this is our good buddy, our Dolphins.
Speaker 4: Fan, para tomm.
Speaker 1: Where does David think the two running backs from OSU
Speaker 1: go in the NFL draft? I'm assuming he is talking
Speaker 1: about and quinnchron Judkins. David, do you have any feelings
Speaker 1: on where these guys go in the actual NFL draft?
Speaker 1: Because if you do believe that they're both first round
Speaker 1: picks or early second round picks or whatever, just obviously
Speaker 1: as skewed the way you've been drafting him in Bestball Leagues.
Speaker 1: How do you feel about the Ohio State rookie running
Speaker 1: backs in this year's draft?
Speaker 6: I think I think Henderson has a ton of upside.
Speaker 6: Judkins is a grinder. I don't know how his game
Speaker 6: translates to the NFL. We'll see. He got a little
Speaker 6: Naisey Harrison his game to me, So I don't know
Speaker 6: if I'm not I don't really try to push Judkins
Speaker 6: up Henderson. I'm all aboard. I'd like to have a
Speaker 6: piece of Henderson if I can. He goes right now.
Speaker 6: I mean, even without his landing spot. He's being drafted
Speaker 6: in the fourth and fifth round of these drafts, every
Speaker 6: one of them. So I'm not I'm not sold on
Speaker 6: where they're gonna go because a lot of these teams
Speaker 6: need running backs. So and with the talent of these guys,
Speaker 6: you can see some weird stuff, like I don't think
Speaker 6: you can This year is gonna be real hard to
Speaker 6: to have a draft flow, just like all these experts
Speaker 6: think it's gonna flow, because I think you'll see some
Speaker 6: teams making some moves where they think this is like
Speaker 6: these kids are like once in twenty year opportunity and
Speaker 6: people might move up to get a running back where
Speaker 6: in years past they haven't.
Speaker 4: Son is gonna be right there reporting on it.
Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not looking forward to it because I
Speaker 1: know how busy I'm gonna be up in. I don't
Speaker 1: know if you guys know Doug Gottlieb at all, Yeah,
Speaker 1: a little bit. So Gottlieb is like he and I
Speaker 1: are sharing a desk for for one where broadcasting yeahs,
Speaker 1: because I go on before him and he is broadcasting
Speaker 1: live at the same location as I am this and
Speaker 1: I'm trying to get him on my show. We'll see
Speaker 1: if what it happens. But it's gonna be wild man.
Speaker 1: And like there are like three maybe four ways in
Speaker 1: and out of Green Bay from where I live. Uh,
Speaker 1: so I know it's gonna be like two hours asleep.
Speaker 1: And like Scott Pianowski from Yahu talked to me about
Speaker 1: this and and I told him, like, hey, this is
Speaker 1: like a few months ago when I had them on
Speaker 1: one of my shows, and I said, are you are
Speaker 1: you getting tired? You know, like the grind and everything,
Speaker 1: and David, you know how how hard it is to grind?
Speaker 1: And and he said, no, Look, we work in the
Speaker 1: toy department of the store. Nobody's crying for us, you know,
Speaker 1: and so I'm not. I'm not asking for many cry
Speaker 1: for me, because don't do it like it's gonna be fun.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be an absolute unbelievable week here covering the
Speaker 1: draft in in Green Bay, Wisconsin. But yeah, it's gonna
Speaker 1: be tiring. I'm gonna lose sleep over it. But that's
Speaker 1: okay because because I like it. And David, you know this,
Speaker 1: because of all the drafts that you have drafted, you know,
Speaker 1: you know, throw back to green to January when you've
Speaker 1: been drafting, and and you know going forward to August
Speaker 1: and September. You know how hard it is. But at
Speaker 1: the same time you have help. And this is what
Speaker 1: makes it worthwhile is having all these teams, all these
Speaker 1: pokers in the fire to try to, you know, translate
Speaker 1: all this hard work from a a little spark to
Speaker 1: a massive bonfire that can win you a seven figure
Speaker 1: grand prize.
Speaker 6: After after this draft, the boarder flip, I mean, there's
Speaker 6: gonna be a been it on landing spots. You'll see
Speaker 6: a lot of movement in the In Darren Amaldi's ADP
Speaker 6: charts because after the draft, landing spots will make a
Speaker 6: huge difference with some of these kids, for sure.
Speaker 1: Hold on real quick, Pharrell, John Terry piping in right now?
Speaker 1: What jersey is Balky wearing? The draft?
Speaker 4: Missed found your name?
Speaker 1: I have a lot of good ones I have, and
Speaker 1: this is just one. I don't know what I'm gonna
Speaker 1: do yet. I have a Dwayne bow Chiefs jersey. I
Speaker 1: have a Chad Pennington Jets jersey. I have a Trent
Speaker 1: Richardson Brown's jersey. I don't know what I'm gonna do yet,
Speaker 1: but all those are in play right now, and I'm
Speaker 1: looking forward to trying to figure out what I'm gonna
Speaker 1: do for the draft next week in Green Bay.
Speaker 4: Go ahead, my friend, I think you should showing been
Speaker 4: a Milwaukee Brewer jersey.
Speaker 1: Nobody's appreciate that would.
Speaker 4: Be your thing. And and then if Gottlie were to
Speaker 4: see any of your work, he might ask for a
Speaker 4: different show schedule. He might not want to follow you.
Speaker 1: It's very possible.
Speaker 4: That's that's all I'm saying. You know that happens in
Speaker 4: the music business all the time. I'm not going on
Speaker 4: after that.
Speaker 1: Let's thank you, I want to bring up the Jets here,
Speaker 1: David with Justin Fields now as the quarterback over Aaron Rodgers,
Speaker 1: over Zach Wilson, over Chad Pennington, everybody that they had
Speaker 1: over the last ten, fifteen, twenty years. There, Justin Fields
Speaker 1: brings up a unique proposition at the quarterback position here
Speaker 1: for lack of a better term for what he can
Speaker 1: do personally as a fantasy quarterback for you in Best
Speaker 1: Ball and Dynasty. But what I want to focus in
Speaker 1: on is what he is going to do for Garrett Wilson,
Speaker 1: his former collegiate teammate at Ohio State. How good or
Speaker 1: how bad or what is going to be the Justin
Speaker 1: Fields effect on Garrett Wilson this season.
Speaker 6: I really like Phil's for Wilson, their history going back
Speaker 6: to college. Phil's DJ Moore his best year was with
Speaker 6: Justin Fields. So Justin Fields kind of gets a bad rap.
Speaker 6: And personally, I'm rooting for the Jets. My best friend
Speaker 6: who goes out with me to draft some of these
Speaker 6: teams is a huge Jets fan, Lottie. I think you
Speaker 6: met her out there and she's just a diehard Jets fan.
Speaker 6: So I'm oping Justin Fields is it reaches his ceiling
Speaker 6: with the Jets, and I think he has a chance to.
Speaker 6: I think he hurts brees All a little bit. I
Speaker 6: don't know what the I don't know what the I mean.
Speaker 6: There's a lot of noise about the Jets going to
Speaker 6: like a three running back rotation with with with Bree
Speaker 6: and Brailin Allen and Isaiah Davis. So I think Fields
Speaker 6: will hurt all those guys. But I think he's gonna
Speaker 6: help Garrett Wilson reaches. I think Garrett Wilson may have
Speaker 6: his best year ever as a as a pro this year.
Speaker 1: I M not against that, and I could totally see that, David,
Speaker 1: as long as you brought up Breesce Hall running back
Speaker 1: twelve in the FFPC never too early best Ball Tournament.
Speaker 1: Right now, he is going at the three oh four
Speaker 1: behind Kendra Miller. No, that's not accurate at all. Hold
Speaker 1: on left, let me sort this properly. Kendra Miller is
Speaker 1: definitely going after prize all ye, yes, thank you. But
Speaker 1: Brice Hall is going after Bucky Irving, He's going after
Speaker 1: Josh Jacobs, He's going over going after Kyen Williams, he
Speaker 1: is going before James Cook. O'marion Hampton and Chase Brown.
Speaker 1: Your thoughts on Breece Hall right now, based on what
Speaker 1: you just shared with us, knowing that there's a possibility
Speaker 1: this could be a three way share in the backfield,
Speaker 1: how do you handle Briese Hall at running back twelve
Speaker 1: at the three oh four in the Best Ball Tournament.
Speaker 6: I was a huge briess Haall fan when he first
Speaker 6: come out of college. But there's something to it, I
Speaker 6: think with the coaches and then the Isaiah Davis can
Speaker 6: impressed me last year, and then Brailyn had a good stretch,
Speaker 6: but then he went away. He's a big kid, so
Speaker 6: I could see them spread the ball around because Brieste
Speaker 6: was banged up, And if you're really honest with yourself,
Speaker 6: I had a lot of Bresaw. Breesaw didn't look right
Speaker 6: for periods of the year. He broke a couple of
Speaker 6: long runs and like he was had a plow. He
Speaker 6: was pulling behind him. So I don't I don't know
Speaker 6: if that was from the knee. He wasn't fully recovered
Speaker 6: from that, or maybe he never fully recovers and is
Speaker 6: in the same back he was, So there there might
Speaker 6: be something to that noise and all the drafters are
Speaker 6: buying into that noise because he's going way lower than
Speaker 6: what you would think Brisaw should go in drafts, and
Speaker 6: he continues to move down the board. I mean I've
Speaker 6: seen him in draftscow three nine, three ten, in some drafts,
Speaker 6: in these bestball drafts. So yeah, you are a Bresaw briefer.
Speaker 6: You can definitely get some some reasonable price prices on Bresaw.
Speaker 4: Right now, pull in the plow Ballki, there's there's a
Speaker 4: KFFC team name for you.
Speaker 6: He looked like he was definitely pulling a plow at times.
Speaker 4: Who was who's your friend? Who is the Jets fan?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 6: Lottie Huey, he's married to Phil and they come draft
Speaker 6: with me.
Speaker 4: I met lot, I met these guys. We shout out Balky.
Speaker 4: You mentioned shout outs early in the show. Shout out
Speaker 4: to our beloved friend Leroy Corson and his uh recovery
Speaker 4: from surgery which.
Speaker 1: Has been which has been successful, and he is resting.
Speaker 4: Right now answers to our prayers. We should get Lottie
Speaker 4: and and a Jets fan and Leroy together and they
Speaker 4: can talk about Aaron Rodgers. Now, this would be this,
Speaker 4: that would be great. So I gotta talk about something
Speaker 4: and I, you know, it's I don't know why. It's strange.
Speaker 4: We keep talking about strange, this tied end from Jacksonville,
Speaker 4: just because Ingram has moved on. I guess that this
Speaker 4: conversation keeps coming up. And I think he is. You know,
Speaker 4: he was a late second round draft picked the guy is.
Speaker 4: I think it's important to note that everyone grafted him
Speaker 4: in the second round in Jacksonville is now either working
Speaker 4: somewhere else or looking for a job. And I think
Speaker 4: he's a pretty good football player. He enters his third
Speaker 4: year called forty balls. Last year, there's nothing that makes
Speaker 4: me believe that this player is going to help us
Speaker 4: win in the FFPC am my wrong, riders. It still
Speaker 4: to be determined.
Speaker 6: He definitely could help you win the way he's priced,
Speaker 6: he definitely could. He has value for sure. He goes twelfth,
Speaker 6: thirteenth round, fourteenth round. A lot of these drafts and
Speaker 6: the kid flashed. I like big athletic tight ends like him,
Speaker 6: and now he has no competition unless they add a
Speaker 6: tight end. He had zero competition for targets. It's him
Speaker 6: and Brian Thomas show right now.
Speaker 4: I remember him from the combine. He did look athletic,
Speaker 4: but he did not look fast.
Speaker 6: Yeah, but he showed he has football speed. He separated
Speaker 6: from a lot of linebackers last year and if you
Speaker 6: could go back and watch the games, he definitely he
Speaker 6: definitely is a problem against libackers.
Speaker 4: It is no longer Strange Ball. We will continue to
Speaker 4: discuss Strange with.
Speaker 6: His price is is price? If he was like a
Speaker 6: sixth or seventh rounder, then oh no, maybe, but he's
Speaker 6: a twelve thirteen to fourteenth rounder in every draft.
Speaker 4: Who's going arounding for Brenton Strange? You're talking about, yeah,
Speaker 4: because you know in the sixth round you can still
Speaker 4: get Ferguson, right, or you Ferguson.
Speaker 6: Ferguson goes eighth, ninth round in the.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's I think that's a steal. I think there's
Speaker 4: a real tidy.
Speaker 1: So so Strange. There's a glut of tight ends going
Speaker 1: around Strange. Right now. I'm talking about the number too
Speaker 1: early Best Ball tournament. But you're you're looking at Brenton
Speaker 1: Strange as a twelve oh nine pick, which is basically
Speaker 1: the same ADP as Hunter Henry, but right before Strange,
Speaker 1: less than a half round before him. Cole Comet Pat Fryarmouth, Right,
Speaker 1: So you're looking at Comet, Friarmuth, Strange, and Henry all
Speaker 1: in the twelfth round, right. If you go ahead of that,
Speaker 1: Goddard and Likely are in the eleventh round. If you
Speaker 1: go behind that, h G. Sicki and Ert and Kay
Speaker 1: Dotton are in the thirteenth round. Right. So so that's
Speaker 1: the range you're looking at with Strength. But with Strange,
Speaker 1: I think is interesting is like he's got the pedigree.
Speaker 1: And if you look at what Jacksonville has done or
Speaker 1: what they have not done with Trevor Lawrence, I think
Speaker 1: there's a lot to like about Stranger for fantasy purposes.
Speaker 1: This is not some sixth round schlub that is just
Speaker 1: a blocking tight end. He's got the chops that kept
Speaker 1: him ahead of Tyler Warren, that kept him ahead of
Speaker 1: THEO Johnson right at Penn State. And whether that's legit
Speaker 1: or not, I don't know, but it happened. And and
Speaker 1: and I think when you look at what you have
Speaker 1: to pay for him in the best ball tournaments in
Speaker 1: the in the dynasty streets, it makes a lot of
Speaker 1: sense to have Strange on your team rather than not
Speaker 1: having him on your team. For sure, Okay, let's move
Speaker 1: on here. I want to Ferrell go. We're running a
Speaker 1: low on time. I'm gonna let you ask David Hubbard
Speaker 1: our final question of the night here for bestball teams
Speaker 1: here in the FFC in twenty twenty.
Speaker 4: Five Fastball Team's Day. If you say you've been doing
Speaker 4: a lot of them, we're gonna invite you to do
Speaker 4: something in Kentucky too.
Speaker 6: But don't forget the.
Speaker 4: Big Gorilla and all this good stuff that that. Yeah,
Speaker 4: you got to get in all that stuff. But let
Speaker 4: me ask you something player. We talked about a lot
Speaker 4: of players. You got to give me a fresh one.
Speaker 4: A guy that you're really really targeting this year, and
Speaker 4: another guy that you are avoiding. It would be my
Speaker 4: Jalen Waddle. I'm avoiding Jalen. Who's the guy that you're.
Speaker 6: A boarding I'm not avoiding Jaysen Waddle, But I know that.
Speaker 4: You know we previously talked about that. But I'm saying
Speaker 4: somebody that you just don't like. At his price, I
Speaker 4: would have to say Aaron Jones.
Speaker 6: I over to run it back. I can't stay healthy.
Speaker 6: I just don't want to pay any kind of price
Speaker 6: for him this year. I'd rather with a running back market.
Speaker 6: I think I can get better outs, is what I
Speaker 6: call them, than they're relying on him to get me
Speaker 6: to the Promised Land. I don't think he's going to
Speaker 6: get a lot of teams to the promise Lands. So
Speaker 6: I would have to say Aaron Jones. And to add
Speaker 6: to that, I've always been Aaron Joe's truth of when
Speaker 6: he first came out. But he's long in the tooth
Speaker 6: now and I'm not a big fan. Along on the
Speaker 6: tooth runn Dereck Henry's kind of kind of somehow avoided that.
Speaker 6: I don't know. Just he's just a freaking nature but
Speaker 6: most running back, he's.
Speaker 4: A freaking hard work. Yeah, I'll say he's a freaking
Speaker 4: hard work. All right, Well, who is the guy who
Speaker 4: just when you mentioned this guy is gonna shoot up
Speaker 4: the draft board? So I think it might be on.
Speaker 6: Are you talking about early rails or middle round?
Speaker 4: I don't care. It's just a guy that you got
Speaker 4: to have wherever you're going to have, you know, because
Speaker 4: I'll be eighteenth round rows around, I'll be drafting pittmand
Speaker 4: That's my guy.
Speaker 1: A guy.
Speaker 6: I'll go with the Homer. I mean, the obvious pick
Speaker 6: for me is I think is Brian Thomas. If I
Speaker 6: had to, if I want to play, that's who I
Speaker 6: would want to have if I could do a draft,
Speaker 6: and that he's the guy that I believe in the most.
Speaker 6: So I would say Brian Thomas. I know he's it's
Speaker 6: a it's a kind of a layup. But but if
Speaker 6: you're asking me who who I would move up the
Speaker 6: board to be, Brian Thomas.
Speaker 1: I under So I just want to just go back
Speaker 1: to the Jordan Mason thing. The Vikings received one hundred
Speaker 1: and eighty seventh overall pick, which is in the sixth
Speaker 1: round this year, and they sent a fifth round pick
Speaker 1: to the Niners and a twenty twenty six sixth round pick,
Speaker 1: which is fine whatever, But then the fact that the
Speaker 1: Vikings inked Mason to an extension to me is a
Speaker 1: like alarms are going off, like they understand that part
Speaker 1: of the reason and this is probably my Packers by
Speaker 1: a showing, but part of the reason that Aaron Jones
Speaker 1: was so successful in Green Bay was that he was
Speaker 1: never the man for for for all those great Packers teams,
Speaker 1: and and so while this is like, oh god, you
Speaker 1: know this, this sucks for Aaron Jones, maybe in the
Speaker 1: short term, it's not that great or extually me. Maybe
Speaker 1: in the short term it's good, it's fine, it doesn't
Speaker 1: affect it, but in the long term it's not great.
Speaker 1: I understand the fact that this will help Joanes stay
Speaker 1: healthy and he's gonna be on the field more, but
Speaker 1: he's got as like like he's still got to avoid
Speaker 1: injury and and he this this is this seems like
Speaker 1: obvious what I'm saying, He's never been as old as
Speaker 1: he is this year.
Speaker 6: Right.
Speaker 1: Time only goes in in one and and so when
Speaker 1: you have the Vikings committing the way that they have
Speaker 1: the Jordan Mason, I think that you have to rein
Speaker 1: back your your Aaron Jones love. And I'm speaking to
Speaker 1: all the viewers tonight. I think that that as much
Speaker 1: as you love him over the course of of his career,
Speaker 1: this is the year that you you got to think about, like, Okay,
Speaker 1: this what I have enjoyed with Aaron Jones on my
Speaker 1: fantasy team may not.
Speaker 6: Happen this year. But how good did Mason look with
Speaker 6: the forty nine er?
Speaker 1: Was awesome? He was awesome, He was fantastic and and
Speaker 1: I don't see any reason why that shouldn't continue in
Speaker 1: Minnesota this year. I think they're gonna address offensive line.
Speaker 1: They already have addressed offensive line a free agency in
Speaker 1: the draft. I think they're going to do that as well.
Speaker 1: So that's gonna help Jordan Mason for sure. David, this
Speaker 1: my god, this has been so good tonight, George. So
Speaker 1: glad to have you on the twenty sixteen FFPC Main
Speaker 1: Event Champion. You and Nelson Susa. I remember, I still
Speaker 1: I don't know why I remember watching that final game.
Speaker 1: I know the bar I was at in Appleton, Farrell
Speaker 1: you may have been there as well when you and
Speaker 1: you'll be up in Appleton coming up in August. I
Speaker 1: remember the box. I was saying, God, Susa and Hubbard
Speaker 1: are going to win this thing tonight. And I was
Speaker 1: watching you guys going back and forth on X that
Speaker 1: night or Twitter back then, and I was like, this
Speaker 1: is this is amazing, Like we're witnessing history here and
Speaker 1: you have had a lot of success since then, and
Speaker 1: who knows, maybe this will continue in twenty twenty five,
Speaker 1: where you win the Big Gorilla, or you win the
Speaker 1: main event, or you win the Best Ball tournament. I
Speaker 1: know you get a lot of skin in the game there.
Speaker 1: Thank you so much for hopping aboard tonight and sharing
Speaker 1: your insight in how you've been building all your teams
Speaker 1: so far. We will continue to keep tabs on everything
Speaker 1: you've been doing throughout the season. Enjoy the draft next week.
Speaker 1: Enjoy drafting season as we go up until early September
Speaker 1: with the FFPC. Thank you so much again for carving
Speaker 1: out some time for us tonight.
Speaker 6: Man, yes, sir, thank you, Bark, good seeing you for
Speaker 6: Thank you.
Speaker 1: That is David Hubbard, Thank you David joining us tonight.
Speaker 1: David Hubbart, the twenty sixteen FFPC Main Event champion along
Speaker 1: with Nelson SUSA hanging out with us tonight.
Speaker 4: What a treat, Farrell, This was great. You know, you
Speaker 4: and you and Dave have something in common. You know
Speaker 4: he's been he's been carrying around SUSA with him for years,
Speaker 4: and you do the same thing for me, you know.
Speaker 4: So it's it's it's very mess the truth and and
Speaker 4: you know it. It's it's just it's wonderful. He reminds me,
Speaker 4: you know, like he gave up secrets tonight of what
Speaker 4: he what he does, and so it reminds me of
Speaker 4: the old Bear Bryant quote. You know, he'll he'll take
Speaker 4: his and beat yours, and he'll take yours and beat his.
Speaker 4: So you know, it's just it's just yeah. And and
Speaker 4: I'm so I'm so glad that he made a public
Speaker 4: announcement that he was coming to Kentucky this year and
Speaker 4: it Uh, he's a busy man. I won't hold him
Speaker 4: to it, but I think we got our best shot
Speaker 4: ever as long as as long as it doesn't blow
Speaker 4: his damn telephone poles cricket again. I'll never forget that picture, you.
Speaker 1: Know, some of the stuff that's been going on. So
Speaker 1: number one, I want to say this before anybody starts
Speaker 1: frying us on a David did not carry Nelson.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, no fair Nelson this and and he agreed
Speaker 4: with I know he did. I don't know, but I
Speaker 4: told Nelson told him that, and then I quickly get
Speaker 4: it to the ball.
Speaker 1: Nelson Seussa is a friend of mine. He's an incredibly
Speaker 1: accomplished player on his own or with players like I
Speaker 1: think Nelson. I think the world of Nelson.
Speaker 6: It's just like me.
Speaker 4: I'm faking it, you know, with in your shadow, I
Speaker 4: can fake it and get by people say nice things,
Speaker 4: you know, it's great. I couldn't even find that I
Speaker 4: got five on it.
Speaker 6: But you know I get it.
Speaker 4: I get it, you know, I mean.
Speaker 1: Now listen, uh I want Farrell is being very kind.
Speaker 1: He's very very self deprecating tonight. Farrell is an incredibly
Speaker 1: talented fantasy football player.
Speaker 4: No, no, he is an.
Speaker 1: Incredibly talented host of this show, as is Nelson SUSA.
Speaker 1: Not only hosting his own shows and and and you know,
Speaker 1: chiming in on everything high stixs fantasy football. He is
Speaker 1: an incredibly talented player.
Speaker 4: When it comes to Nelson's show is about cooking? Is it?
Speaker 1: I know it is not. And I want this out
Speaker 1: on the record right now that I am a big
Speaker 1: believer in Nelson, Sussa and David Hubbard as equals as
Speaker 1: well as farall Elliott.
Speaker 4: Well he did. They're a great partnership. And it goes
Speaker 4: further than those two. It's a consortium of fantasy talent.
Speaker 4: And I kidd the Nelson, but there's more truth in
Speaker 4: my evaluation of you carrying me.
Speaker 1: I don't subscribe to that as well, Farrell.
Speaker 4: I wonder if Nelson tuned in tonight he might have.
Speaker 4: I wish you would.
Speaker 1: I mean, I wish we got to get him back
Speaker 1: on the show. He's been got to get him back
Speaker 1: a couple of times. We gotta get him back on
Speaker 1: the show now. Farall last night and and I know
Speaker 1: we're running short on time, I did the High Stakes
Speaker 1: Fantasy football show on the Better Sports Network. Our mutual
Speaker 1: friends Bill Hollywood and Dominic Guzzetti were on this show.
Speaker 1: Are They weren't on the show, but they were. They
Speaker 1: were in the chat room for it, and Bill said, Hey, Dom,
Speaker 1: this main event with Kentucky, the Training Camp Division. We
Speaker 1: got seven teams left in this. Why don't you sign
Speaker 1: up for it? And I chimed in on the chat
Speaker 1: when we were doing the show last night, I said, Hey,
Speaker 1: I'm in that division. And Dom's like, all right, what
Speaker 1: the heck? Might as well? And I look at it
Speaker 1: right now, Parall, we're down to five teams in that. Wow,
Speaker 1: it is now. I went, I wouldn't say that it
Speaker 1: was the power of Bill Hollywood.
Speaker 4: Well, Bill doesn't think drink.
