Speaker 1: From the KFFFC KFFFC dot com. He is the definitive
Speaker 1: commissioner of fantasy football. I bring him in right now,
Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen, Good Wednesday evening to you, Farrell Elliott Monky.
Speaker 3: How are you sign? You look like somewhat perplexed and
Speaker 3: tanned at the same time.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, it's sort of my thing.
Speaker 1: I was trying to watch the end of the soccer
Speaker 1: match between the United States at Bosnia before we got
Speaker 1: started tonight. Sadly, too much stoppage time at the end.
Speaker 1: I didn't get to catch the end of it, but
Speaker 1: I just see the final score right now, go go
Speaker 1: USA onto the round of sixteen. They beat Bosnia to
Speaker 1: nil and farrel there is a guy on the Bosnian
Speaker 1: team who played high schooler, who attended high school. But
Speaker 1: a ten minute drive for me in Appleton.
Speaker 2: How about that?
Speaker 3: For that Appleton's outreach into the world. But the culture
Speaker 3: of consumption of beer, of fantasy football, it's an unbelievable.
Speaker 3: If you want to be in the center of everything,
Speaker 3: you should move to Ale, Wisconsin. That's why you are
Speaker 3: the consul at Oh.
Speaker 2: Sir, well, thank you so much. I appreciate that.
Speaker 3: For there was a red card involved. I do not understand.
Speaker 3: I just I thought it was Valentine's Day or something.
Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't know what's going on.
Speaker 2: That's okay.
Speaker 1: You do know what's going on with American football, and
Speaker 1: that's what we'll be talking about tonight, much to your happiness.
Speaker 1: I'm assuming that we need to talk about this and
Speaker 1: Pharaoh will lead things off tonight with the world champs
Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks. I want to get your take on this
Speaker 1: Jendarian Price thing. Brady Henderson, who covers the Seahawks for
Speaker 1: ESPN dot Com, wrote that the Seahawks quote did not
Speaker 1: draft Jedari Price with the thought that he'd be a
Speaker 1: high volume starter right away.
Speaker 2: Let's expound on this.
Speaker 1: Henderson said that the expectation early on is that Price
Speaker 1: is gonna split work with George Halani. Emmanuel Wilson signed
Speaker 1: from the Green Bay Packers. The team is gonna wait
Speaker 1: for Zach Charbona to come back from his injury, and
Speaker 1: then it could be Jenarian Price and Zach charbone in
Speaker 1: the backfield going forward for Seattle for the re mainer
Speaker 1: this season. Now, obviously we're talking about this here in
Speaker 1: July first, but if we look at Week one, This
Speaker 1: could look radically different in regards to if somebody steps
Speaker 1: up in training camp and looks like they're the man.
Speaker 2: But this does not sound.
Speaker 1: This sounds more like a muddy backfield rather than a
Speaker 1: backfield where we kind of know what's going on, right,
Speaker 1: And that's fine, we deal with that all the time.
Speaker 1: But the question is barrel if this is indeed a
Speaker 1: muddy backfield. Our FFPC players over drafting Jendarian Price right now.
Speaker 1: I'm looking at the mojo on him at Fantasy Mode
Speaker 1: Joe on x fantasymojo dot com. Darren Armani runs that site.
Speaker 1: He's also the godfather of the pro Versus Joe's Challenge.
Speaker 1: If you follow him, you've been seeing all these pros
Speaker 1: Versus Joe's League announcements that we'll be covering here at
Speaker 1: the end of this month right here on the HSFF hour,
Speaker 1: and anytime we cite ADP on this show with the FFPC,
Speaker 1: it is all through his website. So Jeneian Price over
Speaker 1: the last five days for running back twenty six at
Speaker 1: the six oh four, that's where he's going right now.
Speaker 1: It's ahead of Pollard, it's ahead of Warren, it's ahead
Speaker 1: of Stevenson, Brooks Hubbard, who'll get into that more on
Speaker 1: later on in the show. Do you feel like that's
Speaker 1: a price you want to pay for a guy who
Speaker 1: you know? Quite frankly, we're getting this from the Beat
Speaker 1: writer himself. That doesn't sound like this is going to
Speaker 1: be his backfield at any point this season, because by
Speaker 1: the time he gets his feet wet, he sheds the
Speaker 1: rookie label, as most rookies do. In November December, that's
Speaker 1: when sharbon A can be back. And I'll say this
Speaker 1: and I'll let you answer. And remember sharbon Ay may
Speaker 1: not be full speed ahead Zach Sharboney coming off this
Speaker 1: serious knee injury. However, the Seahawks are still going to
Speaker 1: plan and that's still gonna take away volume for jendariing Price.
Speaker 1: I am out in the price business at running back
Speaker 1: twenty six in the early sixth round.
Speaker 3: But I'll let you win, oh man, I sure am too, Bulky.
Speaker 3: I wouldn't even think about it, wouldn't consider it. First
Speaker 3: of all, you make a you and the columnist there,
Speaker 3: the Beat writer, makes it a deft definition of what
Speaker 3: the coaching staff is working with. This coaching staff is
Speaker 3: pretty high on themselves. They want a big game back
Speaker 3: in February. You know, they think they can They think
Speaker 3: they can do no wrong, and they may be right
Speaker 3: about that. Now, look at Halani. Most people don't know
Speaker 3: anything about him. Good player out of Boise State, change
Speaker 3: directions very quickly, and has been there now for two seasons.
Speaker 3: I think that's right, Bulky, two seasons in Seattle. They
Speaker 3: understand who this player is and theyre going to use
Speaker 3: him accordingly generian price. Good player. Let's don't get carried
Speaker 3: away with familiarity of a running back from a superior
Speaker 3: school that we're all that we've all looked at. We're
Speaker 3: going to talk with our guests tonight a little bit
Speaker 3: about drafting rookies, but this is one that is skewed
Speaker 3: way out of control as far as yeah.
Speaker 1: And the other thing too is I never and again
Speaker 1: I don't know, and we haven't really seen him be
Speaker 1: in the driver's seat of a backfield in college because
Speaker 1: he's playing behind Jeremi level. He may be very, very good,
Speaker 1: but what we do know is he did not catch
Speaker 1: passes in college.
Speaker 2: Doesn't mean he can't catches in the pros.
Speaker 1: But I'm building up this case here where if this
Speaker 1: goes right, if this goes right. If this goes right,
Speaker 1: then yeah, he might pay off on this early six
Speaker 1: round ADP. A lot of stuff that has to go right,
Speaker 1: and you and I are both shying away from him
Speaker 1: at the moment.
Speaker 3: The short passing game in this offense could be the
Speaker 3: supplement to the rushing game until sharbon a sharbon at
Speaker 3: returns and this group of running backs developed themselves as
Speaker 3: a steady contributor.
Speaker 1: And by the way, we'll have more information on that
Speaker 1: passing game coming up on I believe extra reps on
Speaker 1: Friday with our guests, and I'll announce that here shortly.
Speaker 1: Let's get into the next piece of news that we
Speaker 1: have here. Danielle Oyafusi, who covers the Browns for ESPN,
Speaker 1: talked about Cleveland getting Casey Conceptsio on the ball in
Speaker 1: a quote bevy of ways during the offseason programs. Oyafusi
Speaker 1: says that they want to play.
Speaker 2: Or at least the plan for Cleveland, he believes, is.
Speaker 1: The plan to play Conceptsion, getting the ball on deep shots,
Speaker 1: getting the ball on screens, and getting the ball on
Speaker 1: running plays as well. He's been very versatile in throughout
Speaker 1: his collegiate career at multiple stops, and it was reported
Speaker 1: earlier this month that Todd Monkin, the new head coach
Speaker 1: of Cleveland, was going to design plays to get the
Speaker 1: ball in Conceptscio's hands.
Speaker 2: This is something that you know, the drum.
Speaker 1: Beat, so to speak, is continuing here in regards to
Speaker 1: what we could think of Conceptsion doing as far as
Speaker 1: fantasy goes this year.
Speaker 2: Now he can I don't want.
Speaker 1: To compare him to Deebo Samuel, but certainly in that
Speaker 1: short area of the field, there's a lot to like
Speaker 1: there with what his chops are and probably the best
Speaker 1: part Perrel. And I'm burying the lead on this is
Speaker 1: the price that we are paying for Casey Conceptsione right now,
Speaker 1: for a guy who could be the number one wide
Speaker 1: receiver on this team. And yeah, I know they have
Speaker 1: a Harold fan and so on and so forth, but
Speaker 1: he is being drafted outside the top fifty wide receivers
Speaker 1: in the Big Gorilla right now. Over the last five
Speaker 1: days Parrel wide receiver fifty one. He's going at the
Speaker 1: eleven oh one, So he's outside of the top ten picks.
Speaker 2: A top ten rounds of the Big Gorilla as well.
Speaker 1: He is going after Matthew Golden Jacoby Myers, Jordan Addison.
Speaker 1: Concepcion is a player that I probably want to get
Speaker 1: more exposure to as my fantasy drafting season continues, and
Speaker 1: I feel like this is a player that if you
Speaker 1: want to buy into him now, it's the time to
Speaker 1: do it, because I think he's just going to keep
Speaker 1: going up and up and up eightyp boards.
Speaker 3: I think you're exactly right. Bulk is another case for
Speaker 3: why you want to draft early. Has he been a
Speaker 3: bit consistent around that eleventh round pick. I think that's
Speaker 3: where he's sort of plateaued, and he might have He
Speaker 3: might have before the Cleveland Browns selected him, might have
Speaker 3: been going even earlier. Now. This is if we back
Speaker 3: up a little bit, I think there is some congratulatories
Speaker 3: to hang out, handout rather to the Cleveland Browns front office.
Speaker 3: They've drafted a player here who is checking off all
Speaker 3: the proverbial marks of what you want in a young
Speaker 3: locker room. It concerned me a little bit that we've
Speaker 3: got a head coach coming in here that's sixty years old.
Speaker 3: He's his only head coaching experiences with Southern Mississippi. You know,
Speaker 3: he's he's got to deal with a very very young
Speaker 3: team and a bit of a quarterback controversy. Thus enters
Speaker 3: this concepcion who's had nothing but the right time thing
Speaker 3: to say every time they put a microphone in front
Speaker 3: of his space, and he backs it up with what
Speaker 3: he's done on the field. And somehow magically a team
Speaker 3: that has always been somewhat fractured seems to be coming
Speaker 3: together and it's concepts the owned fans have seen this,
Speaker 3: probably from his experience in college. He's a young guy
Speaker 3: at twenty one years old. He's gracefully aging within the
Speaker 3: locker room and being a guy that you can depend on.
Speaker 3: So his skill set relates to both quarterbacks. Whoever wins
Speaker 3: that quarterback position is going to rely on this player.
Speaker 3: So that's why you know he's going to be likely
Speaker 3: the number one receiver for this team. There's just a
Speaker 3: lot to like about this player, and I think it
Speaker 3: gets better as the season goes on. So I'm all
Speaker 3: four drafting this player at this eleventh round and even higher.
Speaker 3: I would take him up until the ninth or eighth,
Speaker 3: which is probably where he's going to end up later.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's a good point too, is even if
Speaker 1: you write a round maybe two rounds, he might still
Speaker 1: be a bye. I understand that Fannin is probably going
Speaker 1: to be you know, he could be the number one
Speaker 1: target there overall, regardless.
Speaker 2: Position, for the remainder of the season.
Speaker 1: And I know there's a lot of people that are
Speaker 1: going to talk to me about Shader Sanders, Deshaun Watson
Speaker 1: and the problems with the quarterbacks are the problem with
Speaker 1: the quarterback position on that team as well. But when
Speaker 1: it comes down to it, even if this guy goes
Speaker 1: up a little bit more, I still think that that
Speaker 1: ceiling is worth chase chasing when you're talking about some
Speaker 1: of those other receivers I mentioned going around for sure.
Speaker 2: Now he's a.
Speaker 1: Rookie, let's talk about a season veteran here before we
Speaker 1: get to our guest who's coming up in just a minute,
Speaker 1: in Vic Davis. Albert Breer, who covers the NFL for
Speaker 1: Sports Illustrator, wrote this past week that Patrick Mahomes is
Speaker 1: quote trending towards being cleared for eleven on eleven at
Speaker 1: the start of training camp. He's ahead of schedule, which
Speaker 1: I've said on this show. Being ahead of acl repair
Speaker 1: schedule is the new on schedule, right If you're a
Speaker 1: head of schedule. You're on schedule. If you're on schedule,
Speaker 1: you're behind. If you're not talking about it all, you're
Speaker 1: way behind on your So you could see the Chiefs
Speaker 1: being cautious with him. You can see, you know, Kansas City,
Speaker 1: he doesn't want to take chances with a veteran who's
Speaker 1: done it all.
Speaker 2: He doesn't need probably a whole lot of work.
Speaker 1: And if that's the case, you know, if Mahomes is
Speaker 1: going to be doing eleven on eleven in at training
Speaker 1: camp this year at Farrell, I have to question what
Speaker 1: FFPC players are doing with how they're picking this guy
Speaker 1: in the Big Gorilla. Over the last five days, according
Speaker 1: to Fantasy Mojo, we are seeing Mahomes go as the
Speaker 1: quarterback thirteen. For those of you uninitiated to math, that
Speaker 1: means he's not being drafted as a starter. There are
Speaker 1: twelve quarterbacks going ahead of including Brock Purdy, Jackson Dark
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott. All those players are going ahead of this
Speaker 1: all world quarterback and Patrick Mahons. The rushing numbers will
Speaker 1: probably not what will not be what they were last year.
Speaker 1: I would imagine coming off this knee injury, but getting
Speaker 1: this guy as a backup Pharreh or I say, letting
Speaker 1: twelve quarterbacks go off the board and then nabbing Patrick
Speaker 1: Mahomes in the mid eleventh rout. This is a guy
Speaker 1: that's got to go up too, right, because I love
Speaker 1: this adp.
Speaker 2: For him at this point.
Speaker 3: I like it, and I think that our fantasy drafters
Speaker 3: have been drafting Patrick Mahomes for a lot of years,
Speaker 3: and the ones who did it last year didn't do
Speaker 3: it successfully. Just there's a hesitancy with certain things that
Speaker 3: you can question about where this Kansas City team is going.
Speaker 3: I think all the questions have rosy answers. So I'm
Speaker 3: pro Mahomes, you know, but the word is out. Everyone
Speaker 3: who subscribes to Darren's mojo can understand that right now
Speaker 3: you don't have to overpay for this quarterback, so you
Speaker 3: know it's there. They're wise drafters to sit back and
Speaker 3: take the opportunity. But no, I wouldn't draft a few
Speaker 3: of those guys that you mentioned in front of him.
Speaker 3: And you know I, I think he's gonna be in
Speaker 3: a very exciting year in Kansas City, and I really
Speaker 3: look forward to the addition of the running back from
Speaker 3: this offense. I'll look forward to Kelsey's return to health,
Speaker 3: and I look forward to mahomes return to hell. So
Speaker 3: it's and most of all the offense coordinator back in
Speaker 3: the room.
Speaker 1: And I'm not buying the argument too. I know that,
Speaker 1: and listen, I could be wrong anything I say on
Speaker 1: the show, I could be wrong about. No, not really,
Speaker 1: I'm not, but I'll say this. We talked about range
Speaker 1: of outcomes on this show. One of the one of
Speaker 1: the things I'm not buying into, maybe to my own detriment,
Speaker 1: is the fact that Kansas City gave all this money
Speaker 1: to Kenneth Walker. They signed Mari Day Mercado, they draft
Speaker 1: Emmitt Johnson, right, so they have this this new new
Speaker 1: found focus on the running game and throw those other
Speaker 1: those last two guys out. Let's just talk about Walker
Speaker 1: here for a second. They paid a lot for this guy,
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl MVP, a pedigreed guy in the NFL draft,
Speaker 1: the guy who's been a big play merchant over the
Speaker 1: course of his young NFL career. I'm not buying the
Speaker 1: argument that somehow Kansas City is going to transform into
Speaker 1: riding Kenneth Walker this season, which will also take away
Speaker 1: from Mahomes. Even if Walker is having a successful season.
Speaker 1: I think a rising tide raises all ships, and it
Speaker 1: will make Patrick Mahomes a better fantasy players with.
Speaker 3: Very very good, complimentary running back to this offensive attack
Speaker 3: make second and short a wonderful down for Mahomes. And
Speaker 3: that's that's really what you're dealing with with the quarterback,
Speaker 3: like Mahomes is down in distance football, if you can
Speaker 3: get in within a few yards of a first down
Speaker 3: after a five or six yard rushing play on the
Speaker 3: first on first down, which he didn't necessarily have that
Speaker 3: last year. Now, and it's yeah, it's it's really a
Speaker 3: good thing. Tell me. Now, we talked about some of
Speaker 3: the quarterbacks going in front of him. Let me throw
Speaker 3: a couple of quick ons at you. Who would you
Speaker 3: take before if you had the choice. So you're sitting
Speaker 3: at so you're sitting at one of the turns at
Speaker 3: the number twelve position. Do you take Mahomes or do
Speaker 3: you take Prescott?
Speaker 1: I think I would probably take Prescott to go ahead?
Speaker 3: Do you take Mahomes? Hurts?
Speaker 1: I would I would take Jalen Hurts and and and
Speaker 1: I'll and I'll say, like listen, Mahomes could easily finish
Speaker 1: ahead of either one of those guys, I love drafting
Speaker 1: Hurts this year because I think a lot of people
Speaker 1: are down on him based on what happened last year.
Speaker 1: Is rushing totals were way down, probably the worst of
Speaker 1: his career. I think he's in for some nice positive aggression.
Speaker 1: I just traded in one of the Kentucky Dynasty.
Speaker 2: Leagues, Farrell.
Speaker 1: Uh, straight up, I with Doc Hakey. Actually, I swapped
Speaker 1: my rock party and got his Jalen Hurts, And I
Speaker 1: feel really good about that.
Speaker 3: You know, it's amazing anyone would ever trade with you
Speaker 3: in the Dynasty, It really is. It's it's just but
Speaker 3: you know, Doc Hekey has the swagger to do it,
Speaker 3: and then that makes that makes sense?
Speaker 2: Would you?
Speaker 3: But you would never, my Goodnessue would never take a
Speaker 3: party ahead of Mahomes.
Speaker 2: You know I probably would not.
Speaker 3: What about Stafford?
Speaker 2: No, take Mahomes out of Stafford.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: See, Okay, I think you're in the right place. But
Speaker 3: I think, look, it's like our It's like our friend
Speaker 3: mister Prescott. He's got a tough, tough job. Uh. He
Speaker 3: plays for the Dallas Cowboys with the defense that is
Speaker 3: is poorous at best for fantasy football purposes. He's got
Speaker 3: all these great receivers, he's going to have to fling
Speaker 3: it around. Mahomes doesn't necessarily have to do all that
Speaker 3: to win. With the acquisition of the running back. Running
Speaker 3: back's going to help him. But you know, uh, Prescott's
Speaker 3: got a bigger elephant to carry on his back. So yeah,
Speaker 3: those are Sometimes you're not drafting the best quarterback, you're
Speaker 3: drafting the situation, and that's yeah, that's what's going on here,
Speaker 3: I believe. But yeah, give me Patrick Mahomes on any
Speaker 3: of my fantasy teams, I'll be pleased.
Speaker 2: The other thing with Prescott. Just to put a button
Speaker 2: on this conversation, I.
Speaker 1: Am of the belief that Dallas's defense, while it wasn't
Speaker 1: the most talented unit last year, I think it was
Speaker 1: pretty battered too.
Speaker 2: They dealt with some some nasty injuries.
Speaker 1: Those guys are healthy, They've they've added in free agency,
Speaker 1: they've added in the draft. I think the Dallas defense
Speaker 1: is going to be significantly better than what it was
Speaker 1: last year.
Speaker 2: And I don't think.
Speaker 1: Prescott is necessarily going to have to throw for five
Speaker 1: thousand yards in order for Dallas to be in games.
Speaker 2: We can see fewer shootouts from them this year. As well.
Speaker 1: So that's my soliloquy on Patrick Mahomes and Dak Prescott.
Speaker 1: Farrel and I have been talking a lot here. How
Speaker 1: about bringing a new voice into the conversation and getting
Speaker 1: a new perspective on some other topics we have planned
Speaker 1: for you Tonight, we'll bring in tonight's guest. He's already
Speaker 1: won multiple FFPC league titles.
Speaker 2: He's gunning for.
Speaker 1: The one million dollar grand prize in the FFPC Big
Speaker 1: Guerrilla this year, and he joins us live tonight. Please
Speaker 1: welcome onto the program, mister Vic Davis.
Speaker 2: Vic, Good Wednesday evening to you, man, how are you good?
Speaker 4: Thanks? Thanks for having me.
Speaker 1: Exciting to have You've been doing a lot of draftings

Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I've done two high state leagues as well.
Speaker 4: The main event, well.
Speaker 3: You've got to love that snail on that microphone, because
Speaker 3: we want everybody to hear the words of wisdom that.
Speaker 1: Are before we get into the fantasy football portion of
Speaker 1: the of the interview. Here, tell us what you're doing
Speaker 1: for a living when you're not winning f f PC
Speaker 1: leagues and drafting and all these leagues.
Speaker 4: This year, Hi practice medicine.
Speaker 2: A real life doctor on the show, Farrell, you got
Speaker 2: a lot.
Speaker 3: This is all right. Now we've got to throw out
Speaker 3: all the questions balking and we've got to get all
Speaker 3: the health issues we've been We've been asking guys all
Speaker 3: year that you know that the qualifications medically are that
Speaker 3: they went to CBS for Walmart, Walgreens, you know, to
Speaker 3: comment on how players are going to get healthy. They
Speaker 3: will be, they'll be fantastic.
Speaker 2: But uh, and we'erehere.
Speaker 3: Do you practice medicines.
Speaker 4: Here, Florida?
Speaker 3: Oh well, I hear that. I hear there's people down
Speaker 3: there in a certain age group that could use your assistance.
Speaker 3: That's a really good thing. I want to say that.
Speaker 3: Let's talk about some players who don't have the wear
Speaker 3: and tear on their body and are perhaps not a
Speaker 3: succeptable injury. This year. I've got some theories about rookie
Speaker 3: players as it relates to fantasy football and those who
Speaker 3: draft them it. You know, here in Kentucky, we have
Speaker 3: our first draft of the new year. We drafted for
Speaker 3: the twenty twenty sixth season on Super Sunday, So we
Speaker 3: start early and that draft comes right on the heels
Speaker 3: of the senior boat. And there's a lot of excitement.
Speaker 3: The second theory is that early drafting of rookies, pushing
Speaker 3: these guys up the boards comes from all the guys
Speaker 3: who play a lot of dynasty teams. They're focused on rookies,
Speaker 3: and I see that in the Aby Guerrilla and the
Speaker 3: Big Gorilla. I see that coming into play, and I think,
Speaker 3: you know, the shine will come off these rookies as
Speaker 3: we get through March April May and it heats up
Speaker 3: to one hundred degrees outside and we begin to think
Speaker 3: of the familiar names. Your teams early on are replete
Speaker 3: with rookies. What do you love about them? Is that
Speaker 3: a yearly thing for you or is that just something
Speaker 3: that this year? Like, I think the wide receiver class
Speaker 3: is tremendous. All the way through the draft, there were
Speaker 3: thirteen rookie running backs drafted, so so few they have
Speaker 3: to be good ones. Your thoughts on drafting rookies and
Speaker 3: how you see them on your team so far and
Speaker 3: on your teams that are will be going forward with.
Speaker 6: I think I was drafting them more rookies close it,
Speaker 6: you know, just after the draft and just before the draft.
Speaker 6: I mean, my high state league is the main event.
Speaker 6: I don't have any rookies in those teams.
Speaker 3: And why is that?
Speaker 6: I mean, if you look at the rookies, whether it's
Speaker 6: Uh Love, for example, what Jeremiah Love was going.
Speaker 4: Really it was going early.
Speaker 6: In the second round, initially before the draft, and the
Speaker 6: people saw that he landed Arizona in a crowded running
Speaker 6: back room.
Speaker 4: You know that he started going toward the end of
Speaker 4: the second round.
Speaker 6: Jaderian Price, you know, George Hallani is taking some touches.
Speaker 4: It, but you don't know when Starbuny is coming back.
Speaker 3: While you were waiting to join us, we talked about Concepcion.
Speaker 4: Who Yeah, I had that.
Speaker 3: I had that, and you know we were all thrilled
Speaker 3: about that until we saw his landing place at Cleveland. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and it seems to be making sense sometimes. I think
Speaker 3: we get on the other side of the NFL Draft
Speaker 3: and we don't necessarily like the landing space as much
Speaker 3: as we did.
Speaker 6: So I've gone away from the rookies a bit. You
Speaker 6: even Carnival Tate one day, Robinson might be the main
Speaker 6: guy there. It might be more especially initially with with
Speaker 6: with a big thing, you know, with the big contract.
Speaker 3: Well you know they we already we already like you
Speaker 3: in Kentucky. Here you don't. You don't have to. You
Speaker 3: don't have to prompt the former Kentucky. But that's okay.
Speaker 3: We appreciate that. We appreciate that. Oh, I think you
Speaker 3: settled it on rookies. You don't use kind of zigg
Speaker 3: and zagg just like I do. But I uh, I
Speaker 3: can see some I can see some good ones. It's
Speaker 3: always a thrill to see the one that comes busting through.
Speaker 4: I mean, if they fall to me, I'm going to
Speaker 4: take them as well. I'm not reaching out for them anymore.
Speaker 3: If you're drafting against Bulky, they won't fall to you.
Speaker 4: Well.
Speaker 2: But I'll say this too.
Speaker 1: And Vick, you're the perfect person to ask about this,
Speaker 1: because you were drafting so early.
Speaker 2: Do you feel like you got more of a discount
Speaker 2: on these rookies.
Speaker 1: Before they had landing spots and then when you started drafting,
Speaker 1: you know, some of these big gorilla teams, some of
Speaker 1: these main event teams. Did you see the rookies going
Speaker 1: higher because people felt more comfortable drafting up knowing what
Speaker 1: their landing spots were.
Speaker 4: I think it's the other way around.
Speaker 6: I think I was watching the rookies going earlier before
Speaker 6: and now that you know people have settled in, they
Speaker 6: are you know, I think they're going more for the veterans,
Speaker 6: That's what I've seen.
Speaker 4: I think the rookies are falling a little bit.
Speaker 1: Well, one of the rookies I wanted to ask you
Speaker 1: about as we will be talking.
Speaker 2: It's so funny.
Speaker 1: We spent months talking about these rookies from a dynasty standpoint,
Speaker 1: and now we're talking about him tonight from a redraft standpoint.
Speaker 1: Let's talk about Omar Cooper in New York. Now we
Speaker 1: have talked about on the show, and this isn't I
Speaker 1: think this is a prevailing opinion by a lot of
Speaker 1: fantasy players out there that you want to draft players
Speaker 1: that probably will be the number one or number two
Speaker 1: target earners on their team. And I look at the
Speaker 1: Jets right well, obviously Garrett Wilson's the number one guy there,
Speaker 1: But then I look at who the other options are,
Speaker 1: ad Ni, Mitchell, Kenyan, Sadik, you know of Bryce Hall, perhaps.
Speaker 2: Mason Taylor.
Speaker 1: I don't even know if i'd throw him in at
Speaker 1: the number two so, but maybe by process of elimination,
Speaker 1: Omar Cooper is going to finish the season with the
Speaker 1: second high number of targets on this team. Is that
Speaker 1: the way you see it? And what do you think
Speaker 1: we're looking at production wise? From the young receiver from
Speaker 1: Indiana on the Jets.
Speaker 4: I'm not drafting any Omark Hooper anymore.
Speaker 6: I think you know, Geno Smith is, you know, end
Speaker 6: the year as the quarterback, and you know they've got
Speaker 6: a lot of pieces.
Speaker 4: I don't I don't know. Mitchelle is getting a lot
Speaker 4: of hype right now.
Speaker 6: They say he's the second wide receiver, but you know
Speaker 6: he had a lot of hype initially too. You always
Speaker 6: had good training camps. I don't know how he's gonna
Speaker 6: do it actuality, I think with Keninsadi, with you know,
Speaker 6: but I'm not drafting Omar Prooper anymore. I think they're
Speaker 6: better potential, even rookie bye receivers.
Speaker 3: Okay, well I'm going back to the drawing board then.
Speaker 3: But I you know Gino, I think everybody loves Geno
Speaker 3: except Gino, and I end it to Gino doesn't like
Speaker 3: himself sometimes. And I'm going I'm going to stay in
Speaker 3: Florida because any Floridian gets tired of talking of New
Speaker 3: York Bunkie. I can't believe you asked him this. But
Speaker 3: I'm going to stay down in Florida and we're going
Speaker 3: to be connected because I'm going to talk about a
Speaker 3: University of Louisville wide receiver and now a Miami dolphin,
Speaker 3: and that is Chris Bell. He's ahead of expectations, or
Speaker 3: at least he's successfully recovering from his ACL problem from
Speaker 3: last year. I'm trying. I really enjoyed watching Chris Bell.
Speaker 3: Do you watch a lot of college football there in Florida?
Speaker 4: It's as.
Speaker 3: Much NFL as we watch. It's hard, especially a man
Speaker 3: in your profession to get in there and watch that.
Speaker 3: But I, you know, so I like to pick certain players.
Speaker 3: It's hard in my profession to do it as well.
Speaker 3: I like to pick certain players. On Chris Bell. That
Speaker 3: was one of my favorites to watch, and I think
Speaker 3: he's thought of incorrectly so as a possession receiver. I
Speaker 3: think we saw him catch seventy two balls this past
Speaker 3: year at Louisville. He catches a lot of crossing routes
Speaker 3: and they explodes with speed. I mean absolutely explodes with speed.
Speaker 3: He's a four four forty is one of the old heads.
Speaker 3: Like like to compare him to an Kwan Bolden, which
Speaker 3: is a wonderful commparison for a career. But Bolden never
Speaker 3: sniffed to four four forty, probably more like four six
Speaker 3: or four seven.
Speaker 2: But it's a good comparison.
Speaker 3: Bolden did catch one hundred yards I mean one hundred
Speaker 3: cat receptions in his rookie season for over a thousand years.
Speaker 3: So what I'm trying to I'm gonna try to sell
Speaker 3: you on every way I can to look at Chris
Speaker 3: Bell in a situation where you don't have receivers with
Speaker 3: a long resume, You've got some talent with some certain
Speaker 3: type of receivers, but I think Chris Bell is an
Speaker 3: all over the field type of receiver. A tremendous acceleration,
Speaker 3: wins at the point of contact, wins the fifty to
Speaker 3: fifty ball, can break tackles. I think I think there's
Speaker 3: real gold in Miami. Balky will tell us where where
Speaker 3: the mojo has ing, But I really think this is
Speaker 3: a rookie tight end that you can You maybe haven't
Speaker 3: drafted because of the injury concern, but I'm going to
Speaker 3: advise you to do so. Now, doctor, you're going to
Speaker 3: take my prescription for your roster. A wide receiver.
Speaker 6: Well, Chris Bell, Yeah, I think if you have an
Speaker 6: IR spot especially, he's probably gonna go on pump just
Speaker 6: you know, just tout the year.
Speaker 3: That's a medical there's a there's a medical opinion. Balky,
Speaker 3: we got one.
Speaker 6: That's that's all my specialty. But but you know, I
Speaker 6: think Chris Bell's he can really come on later in
Speaker 6: the year, and they don't they he could be the
Speaker 6: number one wide receiver.
Speaker 4: Certainly in Miami.
Speaker 6: He's certainly showing up better than the other third round
Speaker 6: wide receiver, HElib Douglas.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna spend the getting well, you talk about the
Speaker 1: Miami receivers right now, I'm talking strictly. I'm talking strictly
Speaker 1: big gorilla right now. So redraft no I R spot
Speaker 1: on these teams f FPC players. The first Miami receiver
Speaker 1: off the board is Malik Washington, but he doesn't go
Speaker 1: to wide receiver seventy five. Chris Bell is like less
Speaker 1: than two rounds after that at wide receiver eighty five,
Speaker 1: and we don't see any other.
Speaker 2: You know, No Douglas, no Coleman.
Speaker 4: I would take bello Washington.
Speaker 2: Well, I would too, Vic, just simply simply because of this.
Speaker 1: I need to turn through the bottom part to my
Speaker 1: roster early in the season, so I want to know
Speaker 1: whether guys are going to be hits or not, and
Speaker 1: I think Chris Bell has the opportunity to be a hit.
Speaker 2: The problem with him is, I don't know.
Speaker 1: Like you mentioned it with Pop, and I'm with you
Speaker 1: on that, I don't really want to waste that roster
Speaker 1: spot on a guy recovering through the bye weeks, which
Speaker 1: is what I'll have to do if I'm taking Bell.
Speaker 1: So it's fine if I want to take Bell in
Speaker 1: the nineteenth round right now. Maybe he makes some sort
Speaker 1: of miraculous recovery and maybe he's he's you know, maybe
Speaker 1: he starts the season on pupp but maybe he's playing
Speaker 1: before early October or something like that. My concern is
Speaker 1: if I draft him, I'm gonna feel like I have
Speaker 1: to keep him on my roster until he's healthy, and
Speaker 1: I don't know how long that's gonna last. Right now,
Speaker 1: no argument for me who I would rather have. From
Speaker 1: a talent standpoint, it's clearly Bell over Washington. But the
Speaker 1: torn acl throws a little bit of a monkey wrench
Speaker 1: into that.
Speaker 3: I've got some I've got some information that he's moving
Speaker 3: well and working actually through drills. So when the when
Speaker 3: he shows up and does that in camp or later
Speaker 3: in camp and the beat rider comes up, then the
Speaker 3: proverbial value might be somewhat lost to inflation. I say,
Speaker 3: strike now, you guys like the player. We might not
Speaker 3: need him to start first month a month and a
Speaker 3: half of a season. But I think Doc's right. I
Speaker 3: think the smartest thing he said is this player's leading
Speaker 3: receiver on the team in November December, and that's when
Speaker 3: you guys are gonna win all the championships anyway.
Speaker 1: And that's when the money gets doled out, right, And
Speaker 1: so if Bell is playing even at a you know,
Speaker 1: the thing is, he's gonna have such a great opportunity there.
Speaker 1: If Miami's as bad as everybody says they are, or
Speaker 1: most people say they are, then Bell should be putting
Speaker 1: up numbers if he's healthy in November December, because Miami's
Speaker 1: gonna have to throw to keep up in games.
Speaker 2: Vic let me let me ask you this.
Speaker 1: As we move away from the rookies, let's talk about
Speaker 1: a guy who was a bit very highly touted rookie
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, and that was Marvin Harrison,
Speaker 1: a player that was going basically in the second round
Speaker 1: at FFPC, midstakes and main event.
Speaker 2: Drafts his rookie year.
Speaker 1: Then he does not have the rookie year we were
Speaker 1: hoping for many people were hoping for, and then he
Speaker 1: falls off to you know whatever, it was third fourth
Speaker 1: round last year. Now, if you want to grab Marvin
Speaker 1: Harrison after a second straight underwhelming performance in twenty twenty five,
Speaker 1: you can get him at wide.
Speaker 2: Receiver thirty two at the six h six.
Speaker 1: And because fantasy players are crazy, they still say that's
Speaker 1: too high. Are they right in saying that? Should they
Speaker 1: be crossing Harrison off and letting somebody.
Speaker 2: Else take him?
Speaker 1: Or do you think there's something there with MHJ in
Speaker 1: the mid sixth.
Speaker 4: Mid six?
Speaker 6: I'm not sure if I would take him in the
Speaker 6: mid six. I mean, depending on how the draft is going.
Speaker 6: I think, is his ADP is.
Speaker 4: Right where it should be.
Speaker 6: You know, he's probably going to be the number one
Speaker 6: wide receiver oba Michael Wilson. But but the situation and
Speaker 6: arison one is kind of you know, it's sort of fluid.
Speaker 6: Any but you don't know who the starting quarterback is.
Speaker 6: You don't know Juilerent Fine and he's the one who
Speaker 6: really made Fa McBride and Michael Wilson super Scott last year. No,
Speaker 6: I think I would still take Harrison over Wilson because
Speaker 6: I think Harrison's gonna be the number one, but I
Speaker 6: think it's ADPs where it should be. I'm definitely not
Speaker 6: take him off my board, and I would take him
Speaker 6: if if especially be falls to.
Speaker 4: You know where I f.
Speaker 2: I will say this, Farrell.
Speaker 6: Uh.
Speaker 1: I just looked at the four receivers going immediately after Harrison,
Speaker 1: Parker Washington, Jordan Tyson, Alec Pierce, Chris Godwin. What do
Speaker 1: all those players have in common? They're all players I'd
Speaker 1: rather have on my Big Gorilla teams, or on my
Speaker 1: KFF SC teams, or on my f FBC teams. I'd
Speaker 1: rather have those four receivers over Marvin Harrison. And they're
Speaker 1: all going after him this year. So and we don't
Speaker 1: have to get into each.
Speaker 2: One of those. But for me, it's it's like I'm
Speaker 2: with I'm with you Vic on this.
Speaker 1: I think six oh six, that's fine, but I'm gonna
Speaker 1: spend my mid sixth round pick elsewhere.
Speaker 3: Dog the you're gonna if you're gonna be able to
Speaker 3: join us out at playing at Hollywood Live. You can
Speaker 3: do a little live drafting, main event drafting planning Hollywood.
Speaker 4: In Vegas, Yes, sir, right on the strip. No, No,
Speaker 4: that was a number, Doc.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm just once he wins the once he
Speaker 1: wins the Big Gorilla and the main event this year, Pharaoh.
Speaker 2: Well we'll have vic out in Vegas and twenty twenty seven.
Speaker 3: For sure, you need to make some house calls. There's
Speaker 3: there's guys that play in Hollywood who need you. We
Speaker 3: need you out there. Everybody will feel good about having
Speaker 3: you there. You know, we got time to reconsider this.
Speaker 3: While you're thinking about it, Bulgie, he is going to
Speaker 3: turn this into a rookie.
Speaker 1: Oh, let's just keep Here's here's the thing, like I
Speaker 1: feel like Eli Stowers is worth talking about here because
Speaker 1: the only conversations we've really had over the last three
Speaker 1: four months on the show has been from a dynasty standpoint.
Speaker 1: Everybody's very excited about stours in an f FPC tight
Speaker 1: end Premium league from a dynasty standpoint, But Pharaoh, we
Speaker 1: have not talked about him in region.
Speaker 3: Well, all right, we're breaking new grounds with Dog. Now, Dog,
Speaker 3: Eli Stowers, you and I could do a whole show
Speaker 3: with this player and then and you wouldn't have say anything.
Speaker 3: But now your head and you have an occasional you
Speaker 3: know Eli Stowers that go way way back with this
Speaker 3: is a quarterback at a Texas A and EM might think,
Speaker 3: who transferred into New Mexico Stadium, Well that's where he
Speaker 3: ended up. I'm taking you back. I'm taking you back
Speaker 3: to we're going we're doing a history lesson here, doub
Speaker 3: because this is what Sours has is history. But you're
Speaker 3: getting a quarterback from Texas A and M that transferred
Speaker 3: to New Mexico State and was trained by my beloved
Speaker 3: and good buddy and Nelson Fishback. Nelson Fishback as a
Speaker 3: tight ends coach. It's also a quarterback during his college days,
Speaker 3: Nelson groomed this got to be one of the best
Speaker 3: tight ends. And when Nelson left, so did this player.
Speaker 3: This player portaled out and went to Vanderbilt and quietly
Speaker 3: developed into the best tight end that we've seen in
Speaker 3: the SEC in a while, maybe since bours I like
Speaker 3: him that much. And we talk about a lot of
Speaker 3: these rookies in their landing spots I on this show
Speaker 3: and not statistically correct in some ways. But the ship
Speaker 3: has sailed for me and Dallas Goddard. I'm not I'm
Speaker 3: not interested in paying the price for Dallas Goddard that
Speaker 3: we must pay in fantasy football, and then his availability
Speaker 3: sometimes questions me. But Stowers, that's the background. What I
Speaker 3: see is a developing tight end with tremendous speed skills.
Speaker 3: This guy's vertical forty four point five, forty four point
Speaker 3: five for a six foot four inch tunor and forty
Speaker 3: pound player in the in the era of three tight ends,
Speaker 3: more three tight end sets in football than than ever
Speaker 3: in history. This past season, I believe Stours will be
Speaker 3: a pass catching machine. And Balky says, yes, everybody loves
Speaker 3: him in Dynasty. I love him in redraft. Can you
Speaker 3: join me, doc, Can you join me with a good
Speaker 3: prognosis of mister Eli Stowers.
Speaker 6: I'm not taking him over let's say Juwan Johnson or
Speaker 6: you know some of the people are going in or
Speaker 6: even I'm not sure about Star Wars. In the first year,
Speaker 6: they might they might have him playing behind Goddard. Uh.
Speaker 6: You know, Goddard when he's healthy, which I admit is
Speaker 6: not that often, He's still going to be on the
Speaker 6: field over Stars Towers might I'm not sure how he's
Speaker 6: going to do in the first year or so. I
Speaker 6: probably I would take say a Gunnar helm Ootwurs.
Speaker 4: You and I might have to.
Speaker 3: I see you like the conservative assured thing, Doc.
Speaker 6: I think, you know, with the tight End Premium League,
Speaker 6: like the Big Gorilla, you know, taking Star Wars, you know,
Speaker 6: with your one of your late picks is not a
Speaker 6: bad pick at all. Like you said, You've got a
Speaker 6: lot of potential and they've they've got to throw to
Speaker 6: someone after a J.
Speaker 4: Brown left, and that might be you.
Speaker 6: Know, Star Wars is supposed to be a great he
Speaker 6: doesn't block, supposed to be a blocker, but he's going
Speaker 6: to catch the ball.
Speaker 4: So I think that's a great potential pick. I'm just
Speaker 4: not There's so many picks there though, and around.
Speaker 3: That bulky well.
Speaker 2: We got to pay to get Stars, not much, not
Speaker 2: much at all.
Speaker 1: In fact, you can get him as tight end twenty
Speaker 1: eight right now in the Gorilla, and he's gonna he's
Speaker 1: basically going at that fifteen to sixteen turn. Now to
Speaker 1: to vis point here, there are some players that I
Speaker 1: think are interesting after stours, players that we don't have
Speaker 1: to worry about. Hey, are these guys going to be
Speaker 1: playing Week one or not? Players like Pat Fryarmouth for
Speaker 1: those people who don't like George Kittle. Jake Tanjas is
Speaker 1: out there as well. And I know there's a certain
Speaker 1: sect of people believing in Eli Reridan in New England.
Speaker 1: There are people still betting on a bounce back from
Speaker 1: Evan Ingram this year too. Those are all players going
Speaker 1: after Stours. I was listening, Oh over any of them,
Speaker 1: you would take sto Okay.
Speaker 4: All right? I think that.
Speaker 6: Maybe Greg Dalton, you know, is someone who could he
Speaker 6: could be the number one receiver.
Speaker 3: That Florida is coming out in doc right now. Florida
Speaker 3: is coming out any see, it's look stars.
Speaker 4: I would think it's stars by any of the ones
Speaker 4: you mentioned.
Speaker 3: Yuh, Here's what I'm doing.
Speaker 1: Let me let me just say this real quick about
Speaker 1: Stars and we can move on. Stours is like we
Speaker 1: go back to the Chris Bell thing. We talk about
Speaker 1: players that could be big hits and how much they're
Speaker 1: going to cost you. You could draft Stours right now
Speaker 1: on July first, at the sixteen oh one, right and
Speaker 1: if if it, if we get to the first, you know,
Speaker 1: waiverwere run in early September and Stours is has not
Speaker 1: been making plays in the preseason. Stours has not been
Speaker 1: getting on the field. We're not getting great reports about
Speaker 1: his development in other in in that he will be
Speaker 1: playing significant offensive snaps in September. Easy guy to cut
Speaker 1: and move on from. However, if you draft him on
Speaker 1: July first, at the sixteen oh one and training camp
Speaker 1: starts and he's making plays and he's running with the ones,
Speaker 1: and it's looking like he is going to play a
Speaker 1: role on this team immediately, that's a great investment in
Speaker 1: a draft pick right there because of the high ceiling.
Speaker 1: And you know it's only going to get better for
Speaker 1: Stours going forward. So that's the argument I make for
Speaker 1: Stours right now in the Big Gorilla.
Speaker 2: This is a guy that if he misses, not gonna
Speaker 2: cost you much, but if he does.
Speaker 1: Hit, this is the type of player you want on
Speaker 1: your roster, not only in November, December, perhaps in September
Speaker 1: and October as well, which is very exciting.
Speaker 2: Veteran. Let's switch to a veteran here.
Speaker 1: Vick no longer behind Jamiir Gibbs in Detroit is David Montgomery.
Speaker 1: He's expected to be the lead guy in the Texans backfield.
Speaker 1: I've been drafting of a bunch this year. I've been
Speaker 1: getting some pretty good prices on him. I know that
Speaker 1: they're you know, he may not have the pass catching
Speaker 1: opportunities with a talented pass catching running back in Wood,
Speaker 1: he marks there. But I think about how Houston wins
Speaker 1: football game this season. It's the running game and it's defense,
Speaker 1: right and Montgomery seems like the perfect type of guy
Speaker 1: that can go in between the tackles and get you
Speaker 1: three yards or four yards and then occasionally rip off
Speaker 1: a fifteen or twenty yard I feel like this guy
Speaker 1: has a good chance at a thousand yard rushing season
Speaker 1: this year. And certainly when you talk about the price,
Speaker 1: which is what it all comes down to, the ADP,
Speaker 1: what's the draft capital that you have to soak on
Speaker 1: your big gorilla team in order to get this player
Speaker 1: on your team. Well, he's running back twenty one right now,
Speaker 1: he's five h two, he has moved up. He's ahead
Speaker 1: of Swift, he's ahead of Tuton, He's neck and neck
Speaker 1: with Trevion Henderson right now. I'm bullish on Montgomery this year. VIC,
Speaker 1: Are you feeling the same way I am.
Speaker 4: I agree with everything you said everything.
Speaker 6: Houston has not had a running back since Joe Mixon
Speaker 6: and what he March didn't have a good ypa that
Speaker 6: it's bad average at all.
Speaker 4: You know, he's good catching the ball, but.
Speaker 6: I's going to catch the ball as well. I think
Speaker 6: Houston is going to him a bunch. I agree with
Speaker 6: everything you said. I would take him over Chevy on
Speaker 6: Henderson because I don't know how much your bondus Stevens.
Speaker 4: Yeah, did.
Speaker 3: Joe King came in with Joe King came in with
Speaker 3: a good number, fellas twelve touchdowns, And I think that's
Speaker 3: an easy number. I really really did.
Speaker 2: I think I never say easy, but I would say attainable.
Speaker 3: For sure.
Speaker 1: You can get a dozen touchdowns on a running back
Speaker 1: being drafted at the at the in the at the
Speaker 1: early fifth round, for sure. Now, if it was an
Speaker 1: easy twelve Farrell, he'd be going in like the third route.
Speaker 2: Bunkie. You've been married how many years? It will be
Speaker 2: fourteen years this December.
Speaker 3: That's why you're not concerned with the word easy.
Speaker 4: You know, you just one there.
Speaker 3: It's a different thing. See spell Lekowski, who's coming in
Speaker 3: with all kinds of wild stuff here, he's on fire.
Speaker 3: Over here.
Speaker 1: Well, but you know, speaking of the YouTube chat, I
Speaker 1: do want to bring up one comment here and I'll
Speaker 1: ask you Vick about this as I throw it up
Speaker 1: on this Vegita Super Say and for a Dragon ball
Speaker 1: Z fan, awesome wants to know about your thoughts on
Speaker 1: Sam Laporta with his new coordinator. He made Trey McBride
Speaker 1: number one. Why not a Sam Laporter resurgence and thank
Speaker 1: you for Gita super saying for we appreciate that.
Speaker 4: Vic.
Speaker 1: It's interesting because Drew Petsig, who was the OC in
Speaker 1: Arizona last year, is now the new OC in Detroit
Speaker 1: this year, and I think a lot of people are
Speaker 1: kind of frustrated with him. But I know the point
Speaker 1: with McBride is legit. Laporta already was the number one,
Speaker 1: I believe, the number one tight end one year in
Speaker 1: his career, and now he gets Petsig, who is a
Speaker 1: very tight end friendly OC last year. I know McBride's
Speaker 1: super talented as well. I was worried about the back issue, Farrell.
Speaker 1: I'm starting to pull away from that a little bit.
Speaker 1: I'm getting less concerned. You kind of talked me off
Speaker 1: the ledge about this with how much they were letting
Speaker 1: him do in OTAs in mini camp and so on
Speaker 1: and so forth. So I am kind of starting to
Speaker 1: get a little excited about Laporta.
Speaker 2: Vic, What about you. Do you see a Laporta resurgence
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty six?
Speaker 4: Maybe?
Speaker 6: I mean, he's doing a six or seven right now,
Speaker 6: and that's why I would value him. I mean, Trey
Speaker 6: McBride was one number one option in Arizona and Laporta
Speaker 6: is still going to be number four option in Detroit,
Speaker 6: you know, but with the offensive coordinator or switch, certainly
Speaker 6: he's looking better than last year, or at least so
Speaker 6: he's going at six or seven, and that's why it's
Speaker 6: just right for him.
Speaker 4: I think.
Speaker 2: Good that was that was Montgomery's old teammate in Detroit.
Speaker 2: If we can shift back to the running backs, Pharrell,
Speaker 2: I'd love to. I'd love to get Vic's thoughts on
Speaker 2: this next one.
Speaker 3: Vic, I need some help, buddy. I picked up some
Speaker 3: Dynasty teams, and through my own Dynasty machinations, I have
Speaker 3: Chimma Hubbard on so many Dynasty teams. Please tell me
Speaker 3: that he's going to continue to improve and grab a
Speaker 3: lot of that opportunity away from Jonathan Brooks because when
Speaker 3: I look at Brooks, I see a lot of potential
Speaker 3: and in redrafts for that very reason, I'm going to
Speaker 3: be uh, I'm not going to be a chubble Herbard guy.
Speaker 6: Your thoughts, Yeah, I think, you know, I think Talba
Speaker 6: Hubbard is still going to start off the year at
Speaker 6: the guy. But like last year, are they going to
Speaker 6: you know, but last year he got injured in the
Speaker 6: gift to Ricordouto, but then he took it back. I
Speaker 6: think Chub Hubbard is going to start off being the guy.
Speaker 6: I mean, that was a serious injury. With Jonathan Brooks,
Speaker 6: He's not just going to come in and take away
Speaker 6: work from from I think it's going to be maybe
Speaker 6: a threefold split at least for Chubb Robert I will
Speaker 6: I'm definitely taking him still over Jonathan Brooks.
Speaker 3: So you're saying that you get two hundred and fifty
Speaker 3: care he's out of Hubbard. I can expect that this season.
Speaker 3: I can expect that.
Speaker 6: I think, you know, you don't know really how Brooks
Speaker 6: is gonna be in training camp, and you know, he
Speaker 6: was a second round draft pick for the Panthers.
Speaker 4: He's got Hubbard with a fourth round draft pick.
Speaker 6: So he's got the draft value, but I still think
Speaker 6: it's going to be Hubbard unless Brooks is, like, you know,
Speaker 6: shows us something really great in training camp and in
Speaker 6: the season.
Speaker 1: I feel better about it already, Balky. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: you should fairly. And I'll just say this too. Let's
Speaker 1: just focus on where these players are going right now.
Speaker 1: Right Brooks and Hubbard are back to back in Big
Speaker 1: Gorilla ADP running back thirty for Brooks, running back thirty
Speaker 1: one for Hubbard. Brooks was nowhere near the seventh round,
Speaker 1: which is where he's smack dab in the middle of
Speaker 1: right now. He was nowhere near the seventh round back
Speaker 1: in January, February, March, or.
Speaker 2: Anything like that.
Speaker 1: It's been this slow climb for him as the buzz
Speaker 1: has gotten bigger, as the hype has got and better
Speaker 1: for him, and the reports coming out of Carolina, and
Speaker 1: at this point, you know, I mean, even if you
Speaker 1: like Brooks, do you really want to invest a mid
Speaker 1: seventh round pick on a player that is going to
Speaker 1: start off as the backup, A player that has torn
Speaker 1: his ACL twice, a guy that has been snake bit
Speaker 1: with injuries.
Speaker 2: Throughout his professional career. I'm not so sure. I want
Speaker 2: to do that now.
Speaker 1: Everything seems positive right now, but I just until I
Speaker 1: see it. I think I'm fine missing out on Brooks
Speaker 1: in the mid seventh. And if I'm gonna take a
Speaker 1: pair Carolina Panthers running back, I'll probably take the guy
Speaker 1: that they actually paid in Carolina, and that was Tube Hubbard.
Speaker 1: So I think I'm with you guys here. The hype
Speaker 1: is a little bit too much for Brooks for me
Speaker 1: right now. We move on to emails, guys, and Vic,
Speaker 1: I have two emails for you from some viewers, Gary
Speaker 1: and Ventura, California.
Speaker 2: Leads it off.
Speaker 1: He writes, Isaiah likely has been moving up f FPC
Speaker 1: boards lately. Is he still a guy I should target?
Speaker 2: Thanks?
Speaker 3: Vic?
Speaker 2: That is Gary in Ventura, California. And He's right about likely.
Speaker 1: This is a player that has really been sending up
Speaker 1: draft boards. In fact, I believe he is a top
Speaker 1: ten tight end right now. I'm verifying yes, he is
Speaker 1: going off the board the last five days in the
Speaker 1: Big Guerrilla Vick tight end ten at the seven oh five,
Speaker 1: right behind Laporta and Kittle, right ahead of Kelsey and Kincaid.
Speaker 1: Is that a price that that you're still willing to
Speaker 1: pay Isaiah Likely at the seven five actually ahead of
Speaker 1: Jonathan Boxson.
Speaker 6: Absolutely, I love is Likely this year. I think I
Speaker 6: think I would take him over Kittle. But but the
Speaker 6: thing is that everyone knows about Likely now, he's not
Speaker 6: a secret, and everyone's targeting him, Troy, Everyone's targeting Likely,
Speaker 6: and everyone thinks, you know, they can they can take
Speaker 6: him later, but but he's going earlier, earlier.
Speaker 4: From what I'm saying, So I would definitely yeah, seven
Speaker 4: o five, Absolutely.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm still on board at that price too with Likely.
Speaker 1: And I think you know, the other thing too that's
Speaker 1: contributed to this likely rise has been the bad reports
Speaker 1: on Neighbors, and there's a very real possibility that the
Speaker 1: offensive game plan for September for New York will be
Speaker 1: featuring Isaiah Likely as the top pass catcher there rather
Speaker 1: than Malachi Fields, rather than Slayton, you know, rather than
Speaker 1: any of those guys. It could be likely until Neighbors
Speaker 1: gets back, and that's obviously something that we want to
Speaker 1: have on our fantasy teams. I'll bring this back up
Speaker 1: because Vegeta super saying for posted this on the YouTube
Speaker 1: chat vic Debate. Bears haven't had one thousand yard wide receiver.
Speaker 1: Since twenty twenty three, Caleb Williams was off target on
Speaker 1: twenty two percent of his passes. That was thirty first
Speaker 1: among all quarterbacks, worse than Kyler Murray. They also have
Speaker 1: the hardest schedule. Bears are no bueno. Now, I haven't
Speaker 1: fact checked any of this. I'm gonna take Gida super
Speaker 1: Saying for his word for it, because he's a smart guy,
Speaker 1: knows what he's talking about, clearly has good taste in television.
Speaker 1: The the aspect of drafting Bears, Vick, when you think
Speaker 1: about everything he just brought up, how have you been
Speaker 1: handling players like Williams?
Speaker 2: O'doone's a burden swift monong guy.
Speaker 5: Uh.
Speaker 2: Loveland is another guy that we should talk about here.
Speaker 1: Does this scare you off any of the Bears this
Speaker 1: year in your Big Gorilla or main events.
Speaker 4: No, it doesn't.
Speaker 6: I mean drafting Bears a lot. Loveland is the number
Speaker 6: three end, Luther Burden. I'm I'm drafting Burden over doesn't
Speaker 6: think because I'm a little scared about his foot injury. Yeah,
Speaker 6: he's himself said it's still an issue. Uh but but
Speaker 6: uh and then Caleb Williams, I'm still drafting him I
Speaker 6: like him stop dank duties for sure.
Speaker 3: Well, guys, I think that's a great contribution and great
Speaker 3: great question for this late in the show, Balkey, can
Speaker 3: you give that pronunciation again.
Speaker 2: For the guys YouTube handle, Yes, vegeta super saying for.
Speaker 3: Oh, that's just that's just beautiful, man.
Speaker 2: I tell you what might be.
Speaker 3: I think what we're getting at here is we've got
Speaker 3: a quarterback that can't reach the receivers downfield. So what
Speaker 3: are the Bears doing. They won't entertain offers for Cole Comet,
Speaker 3: despite the fact that they have loved one. They're going
Speaker 3: to run three tight ends and almost all the time
Speaker 3: two tight ends on the field. Plus they've got some
Speaker 3: engaging backs catching the ball. I think this is a
Speaker 3: short passing game bonanza for the Bears. And that's that's
Speaker 3: why I would be drafting Bears. Those guys closest to
Speaker 3: the ball in the passing game, they are the ones
Speaker 3: that interest me. The guys lining up at the X
Speaker 3: and Y receivers here not as much interest for me.
Speaker 4: I think.
Speaker 1: I think the thing with the Bears is not necessarily
Speaker 1: anything what they did or didn't do last year.
Speaker 2: I think that if there's one thing that would prevent
Speaker 2: me from drafting Bears. Is everybody else's Bears love.
Speaker 1: This year, Loveland is being pushed up, Burton's being pushed up,
Speaker 1: Caleb Williams being pushed up. So it gets especially at
Speaker 1: the quarterback position, where I see so much depth there.
Speaker 1: It's tough for me to talk myself into Kayleb Williams,
Speaker 1: even though I think he's a fine pick. I think
Speaker 1: Burton's gonna be fine. I think Loveland's gonna be great.
Speaker 1: But man, those prices are not going down, They're going up.
Speaker 1: One more email here for you tonight.
Speaker 3: Vic.
Speaker 1: Before Pharaoh asked the final question of our interview, this
Speaker 1: comes to us from Tom in Baltimore, and he writes,
Speaker 1: does Baker Mayfield stand out at all to you among
Speaker 1: the other quarterbacks he's going next to in the big Gorilla?
Speaker 1: And Vic, I can tell you right now, if we
Speaker 1: look at Baker Mayfield's adp over the last five days,
Speaker 1: he's quarterback nineteen. At the fifteen oh one, he's going
Speaker 1: about a round after Goff and Shug. He is going
Speaker 1: about a half round ahead of Jordan Love and a
Speaker 1: a brown and a half ahead of Malik Willis. Does
Speaker 1: Mayfield strike you as a target at all, as that
Speaker 1: spot in the Big Gorilla.
Speaker 6: I like Mayfield more than any of those qubis, especially Billis.
Speaker 6: Willis has no one who threw it right now. He
Speaker 6: might run the ball, but he's going to Mayfield. You know,
Speaker 6: he was missing he of course, he lost his offensive coordinator.
Speaker 6: So that's the only concern to Liam Gwen to Jacksonville.
Speaker 6: But the offensive line was a mess. He started off
Speaker 6: great last year. He was almost in the m v P, DOC,
Speaker 6: and then he lost half his offensive line, and he
Speaker 6: and Mike Evans and you know Amika Agbuka, who started
Speaker 6: off so good. He you know, he basically he lost.
Speaker 6: He was swaying to guys off the street. And he
Speaker 6: still did okay until late in the year. So I
Speaker 6: think Baker Mayfield is going to rebound. I like him
Speaker 6: is the offensive line has become stronger. Uh, you know,
Speaker 6: he's got I don't see why he should have a
Speaker 6: down year. I like him more than any of those qbs.
Speaker 6: And he does run the ball too, unlike jid Goff.
Speaker 4: Doc.
Speaker 3: I like what you're saying. The only thing that appears
Speaker 3: to be a problem for Baker Mayfield is if I
Speaker 3: install him as my starting quarterback. That seems to me,
Speaker 3: I'm taking personal responsibility for this entire Baker Mayfield situation
Speaker 3: because when I started evening count on six points and Doc,
Speaker 3: we would love you to visit us in Kentucky professionally,
Speaker 3: I'm enjoying good health and will not be visiting you professionally,
Speaker 3: So if you want to come up here, we would
Speaker 3: love to have you. And when you do come up here,
Speaker 3: there's gonna be somebody you absolutely love. You're gonna draft him,
Speaker 3: You're gonna get on your teams, You're gonna make a
Speaker 3: run with displayer. And then there's another guy and maybe
Speaker 3: other players are drafting that you're not gonna touch. Give
Speaker 3: us a couple of names we haven't talked about tonight
Speaker 3: so we can understand exactly what the Doc is thinking about.
Speaker 6: So the player I'm not drafting, particularly or the Viking
Speaker 6: wide receivers, I would say.
Speaker 4: None of them.
Speaker 6: I mean, I'll take I'm not drafting because you know,
Speaker 6: the whole thing about taking Jefferson, Jefferson's going in the
Speaker 6: back of the first and the early second. The whole
Speaker 6: thing about Jefferson is last year he didn't have a quarterback.
Speaker 4: But does he have one this year and it's still
Speaker 4: the same thing.
Speaker 6: It's you know, so I would rather take someone like
Speaker 6: Genty or you know, or Genre or you know, James
Speaker 6: Cook someone else in that position than Jefferson.
Speaker 4: Same thing with Addison. Addison now has jun Jennings to
Speaker 4: contend with. Who's who's the number two? There?
Speaker 6: Who's the number three? And then what about Hawkinson? So
Speaker 6: I'm not I'm not really going for the Viking wide receivers,
Speaker 6: you know.
Speaker 1: I'll just say this too in regards to the Vikings
Speaker 1: receivers there, I do have a little skittishness like Addison whatever,
Speaker 1: He's fine, Jennings whatever. I mean, these these guys are
Speaker 1: not going to cost you your league if if you
Speaker 1: miss out him. Jefferson is a player that we thought
Speaker 1: was quarterback proof. Uh and then last year we found
Speaker 1: out WHOA, he's not quarterback. And it's fine if you
Speaker 1: want to draft Jefferson, but bear in mind he is
Speaker 1: a first round pick right now. And if you not him,
Speaker 1: rather than take Ceedee Lamb or London or you know,
Speaker 1: a J. Brown or some of the running backs you mentioned,
Speaker 1: James Cook, who I need to start drafting more up
Speaker 1: for sure, yes you do. But but but all of
Speaker 1: a sudden, you're putting yourself behind the eight ball a
Speaker 1: little bit. Uh if if it's a whiff on Jefferson.
Speaker 3: In the words of the great Troubadour George Thurgood, who
Speaker 3: do you love?
Speaker 2: Yes? Who do you love? Vic? We talked about the negative.
Speaker 2: Let's get to the positive.
Speaker 4: The player I probably like the most is likely.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, you all unlikely.
Speaker 1: Last thing I want to mention here tonight, guys and
Speaker 1: and Vic. I was thinking about this while you're answering
Speaker 1: that question, just to put a bow on the Mayfield discussion.
Speaker 1: Great points about the offensive line. Offensive line is healthier,
Speaker 1: it's better this year. You mentioned Evans getting hurt, Chris
Speaker 1: Godwin got hurt last year too, and Mecha at Buka
Speaker 1: part of the reason that he had that quiet second half,
Speaker 1: and we'll get to him on extra reps on Friday.
Speaker 1: For sure he was dealing with a leg injury as well.
Speaker 1: And then you think about Bucky Irving going down. I mean,
Speaker 1: it wasn't and the defense had prompted.
Speaker 2: It wasn't just.
Speaker 1: And Mayfield was was dinged up too. It wasn't just
Speaker 1: one person, It wasn't just two people. It wasn't even
Speaker 1: just three or four people in this offense. It was
Speaker 1: the majority of the starters on Tampa last year. And
Speaker 1: I understand starters go down all the time and injuries happened,
Speaker 1: but I think we're in some positive in for some
Speaker 1: positive regression for Tampa, Tampa's offense in general and especially
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield. So I think you've started to sell me
Speaker 1: on Mayfield here a little bit more, Vick tonight, and
Speaker 1: I think you've done that for a lot of the
Speaker 1: viewers and listeners tonight as well. This has been a
Speaker 1: treat having you on. I want to congratulate you on
Speaker 1: your previous success in the FFPC and I wish you
Speaker 1: nothing but the best going forward, trying to win two
Speaker 1: separate million dollar grand prizes in both the Big Gorilla
Speaker 1: and the main event. Vic, be good, thanks her too,
Speaker 1: Thanks for hanging out with us, and we will talk
Speaker 1: with you again very soon.
