My friend? 92 00:04:36.560 --> 00:04:38.959 Well, well, then there were no sins made because I 93 00:04:39.040 --> 00:04:41.560 was just working. That was working so hard, and I 94 00:04:41.680 --> 00:04:45.160 really really loved it, and I really hated missing the show. 95 00:04:45.240 --> 00:04:47.319 But you know what, you had a great show.

So I'm 102 00:05:05.240 --> 00:05:09.959 back here. And speaking of that, Bill Hollywood says that 103 00:05:10.040 --> 00:05:13.560 this is ground Hog's Day, I think plural, meaning that 104 00:05:13.600 --> 00:05:16.480 there's two hogs. I'm trying to understand what he's saying there. 105 00:05:16.639 --> 00:05:21.279 You know, Oinker took exception to it immediately, and you know, 106 00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:24.639 I'm just, yeah, I wonder what he's talking about. Another 107 00:05:24.680 --> 00:05:28.040 guy said, it's Christmas like Christmas easy. You think you're 108 00:05:28.079 --> 00:05:30.519 talking about some of the things that are gonna happen tonight. 109 00:05:30.839 --> 00:05:32.680 I don't know. I mean it could be. 110 00:05:33.160 --> 00:05:35.680 I know everybody's excited to find out if there's gonna 111 00:05:35.680 --> 00:05:38.000 be one of the forty two jos. Technically there can 112 00:05:38.040 --> 00:05:39.839 only be one of the forty one jos because the 113 00:05:39.839 --> 00:05:42.480 guy who co hosted with me last week, Fred Hogg, 114 00:05:42.879 --> 00:05:44.040 is the first. 115 00:05:43.839 --> 00:05:46.560 Joe who got in the bread Bread. 116 00:05:46.680 --> 00:05:49.079 Yeah, so we know that there's gonna be forty one names. 117 00:05:49.079 --> 00:05:51.439 I'm gonna list off here in just a few minutes, 118 00:05:52.000 --> 00:05:54.759 so hopefully everybody will we'll stick around for that. I 119 00:05:54.800 --> 00:05:57.040 do want to get some fantasy football stuff, Ferrel before 120 00:05:57.079 --> 00:05:59.040 we get to that, and then we get Helmer's coming 121 00:05:59.120 --> 00:06:02.079 up little bit as well. All right, let's kick things 122 00:06:02.120 --> 00:06:06.480 off tonight and talk about Teteroa McMillan. Maybe this is 123 00:06:06.600 --> 00:06:09.399 just me. You know, there's not a ton of news 124 00:06:09.439 --> 00:06:11.600 coming out right now, Farrell, and and maybe this is 125 00:06:11.639 --> 00:06:13.560 just me. Over hyping this a little bit or not 126 00:06:13.639 --> 00:06:16.480 hyping it, but like being overly concerned. He's got some 127 00:06:16.560 --> 00:06:18.759 foot sore oness. He says he hopes to be ready 128 00:06:18.800 --> 00:06:21.480 for training camp. This, according to Mike k Now, mc 129 00:06:21.560 --> 00:06:24.399 millan has practiced some in OTAs. He's also set out 130 00:06:24.439 --> 00:06:27.279 a lot of OTAs as well. He told reporters that 131 00:06:27.319 --> 00:06:31.120 he feels good even though he missed today's practice. He 132 00:06:31.439 --> 00:06:34.879 remember at the end of last season he was playing 133 00:06:34.920 --> 00:06:38.120 through a foot injury. In twenty twenty five, he didn't 134 00:06:38.160 --> 00:06:40.279 miss any you know, time on the field. He played 135 00:06:40.279 --> 00:06:42.879 in every game because he didn't miss any time because 136 00:06:42.920 --> 00:06:44.920 of the of the foot injury. But the fact that 137 00:06:44.920 --> 00:06:47.600 that was December or early January or whatever it was 138 00:06:47.639 --> 00:06:49.879 when the Panthers were in the playoffs, and it's still 139 00:06:49.920 --> 00:06:53.839 bothering him, Pharrell, make me nervous, man. And this is 140 00:06:53.879 --> 00:06:57.800 an observer that you know, being having good footwork and 141 00:06:57.839 --> 00:06:59.920 being able to plant and cut to get in and 142 00:07:00.040 --> 00:07:02.759 out of his brakes, that's key. Are you concerned at 143 00:07:02.759 --> 00:07:06.439 all about foot soreness here in June, basically six months 144 00:07:06.480 --> 00:07:09.120 later from at least five months later from when he 145 00:07:09.199 --> 00:07:09.680 was feeling this. 146 00:07:10.120 --> 00:07:12.319 They just may be their excuse for keeping him on 147 00:07:12.399 --> 00:07:18.319 the sidelines and letting him take a slower movement into camp. Yes, 148 00:07:18.800 --> 00:07:22.480 of course, this is an elite player seventy catches, seven touchdowns, 149 00:07:22.839 --> 00:07:26.800 thousand plus yards. He's just beginning a career. Anytime in boky, 150 00:07:26.800 --> 00:07:28.480 you know, when your feed urge, you hurt all over, 151 00:07:28.800 --> 00:07:31.879 you know, you just it's just there's there's bad things 152 00:07:31.879 --> 00:07:34.639 that can come from that. No, I'm not particularly concerned 153 00:07:34.639 --> 00:07:38.199 because I believe in the health and wellness of the 154 00:07:38.240 --> 00:07:42.040 training crew from the NFL, and you know, they'll get 155 00:07:42.079 --> 00:07:44.920 him right if they If they had any thoughts that 156 00:07:45.920 --> 00:07:48.839 he wasn't danger in himself by being on the field, 157 00:07:49.240 --> 00:07:51.360 they wouldn't have him out there, even in the limited 158 00:07:51.360 --> 00:07:53.240 way he is. Yeah, and that's a good point. 159 00:07:53.639 --> 00:07:56.160 You know, if they were concerned about this, he wouldn't 160 00:07:56.160 --> 00:07:59.199 be doing anything at Oates's to her point Pharaoh right now. 161 00:07:59.240 --> 00:08:02.519 According to fantasymojo dot com.

Ted Rowan 167 00:08:19.639 --> 00:08:22.680 McMillan in The Big Gorilla over the last five days 168 00:08:22.680 --> 00:08:25.879 as wide receiver seventeen. At the four h five, it's 169 00:08:25.920 --> 00:08:29.000 between He's going between Garrett Wilson and Zay Flowers. I 170 00:08:29.000 --> 00:08:31.480 guess I'm fine at that price despite the foot soreess. 171 00:08:31.480 --> 00:08:33.360 I think you talked me off the ledge, which is 172 00:08:33.399 --> 00:08:37.480 why having you on this show for sure you you 173 00:08:37.519 --> 00:08:39.759 can wax poetic on this next one too. This is 174 00:08:39.840 --> 00:08:43.080 right in my backyard in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Tucker Kraft 175 00:08:43.559 --> 00:08:47.240 told reporters today that he expects to play Week one 176 00:08:47.360 --> 00:08:48.320 with no pitch count. 177 00:08:48.399 --> 00:08:50.399 I'm gonna get on my soapbox here a little bit. 178 00:08:51.240 --> 00:08:53.679 I don't think anybody's playing with a pitch count in 179 00:08:53.720 --> 00:08:59.159 Week one because we play football. I ain't throwing any 180 00:08:59.200 --> 00:09:00.000 pitches out there. 181 00:09:02.559 --> 00:09:05.679 It's snapcount, thank you for it. Irritates the heck out 182 00:09:05.679 --> 00:09:08.120 of me. It is. People call it a pitch count. 183 00:09:08.159 --> 00:09:12.240 It is a snapout in football anyway. Rant Over Ryan 184 00:09:12.279 --> 00:09:15.840 Wood reporting this for Packers dot Com, Kraft said he's 185 00:09:15.879 --> 00:09:19.080 probably gonna be getting on the pup list to begin 186 00:09:19.200 --> 00:09:22.559 training camp, but he's said that he's going to use 187 00:09:23.000 --> 00:09:25.519 that time to get his conditioning right and get ready 188 00:09:25.519 --> 00:09:28.039 for Week one, coming off the Week nine ACL tear 189 00:09:28.159 --> 00:09:32.320 last year. Now I have concerns about Craft. And this 190 00:09:32.399 --> 00:09:35.320 is not necessarily like I'm feeling better about the injury. 191 00:09:35.320 --> 00:09:40.519 But I had Chris Weck from Fantasy Points on Insider 192 00:09:40.639 --> 00:09:43.200 Access last week and he talked about, you know, forget 193 00:09:43.240 --> 00:09:46.320 about the knee injury, think about how hyper efficient this 194 00:09:46.360 --> 00:09:49.200 guy was last year and how hot he ran. Can 195 00:09:49.240 --> 00:09:51.759 we really be expected to see that again this year 196 00:09:52.000 --> 00:09:55.360 now with Christian Watson and Jaden Reid healthy. You know, 197 00:09:55.440 --> 00:09:58.559 crafted so much of his damage last year when Watson 198 00:09:58.600 --> 00:10:01.240 and Reid were off the field. And how are FFPC 199 00:10:01.320 --> 00:10:03.320 players drafting Tucker Craft right now? 200 00:10:03.960 --> 00:10:05.039 They're drafting him. 201 00:10:04.919 --> 00:10:07.039 Near the ceiling Farrell, He is going off the board 202 00:10:07.360 --> 00:10:11.080 right now. Craft tight end seven at the six oh four. 203 00:10:11.360 --> 00:10:14.639 He's just behind Kyle Pitts, He's just ahead of Sam Laporta. 204 00:10:14.879 --> 00:10:17.440 He's within knocking distance of being tight end five, just 205 00:10:17.480 --> 00:10:20.240 a few picks behind Harold Fannin. I'm starting to get 206 00:10:20.279 --> 00:10:24.320 worried that if you draft Craft that high, it's fine 207 00:10:24.720 --> 00:10:27.039 if he's producing the way that he was or close 208 00:10:27.080 --> 00:10:29.440 to what he was last year. Don't know if that's 209 00:10:29.480 --> 00:10:32.399 going to be the case with Reid and Watson healthy. 210 00:10:32.039 --> 00:10:34.720 Though, you know one of the one of the who 211 00:10:34.799 --> 00:10:39.080 is it whole? Into this whole NFC North is fun 212 00:10:39.159 --> 00:10:42.639 to draft Sean Greeney, and you know Greeney is right 213 00:10:42.679 --> 00:10:46.080 about that. That's a situation where you see a lot 214 00:10:46.120 --> 00:10:47.960 of points, you see a lot of potential, and you 215 00:10:48.000 --> 00:10:50.279 see the teams and players. You're familiar with the teams 216 00:10:50.279 --> 00:10:53.879 and players you opened up, and you do not live 217 00:10:53.919 --> 00:10:56.080 in fear bulky. So I do not want you to worry. 218 00:10:56.120 --> 00:10:58.080 But I think this is as high as Craft goes 219 00:10:58.120 --> 00:11:00.360 in the draft. I think it really is. Is this 220 00:11:00.480 --> 00:11:04.080 is you know, he's at his upper ceiling right now. 221 00:11:04.200 --> 00:11:07.039 You have thirty two catches about five hundred yards six 222 00:11:07.120 --> 00:11:11.200 tds in eight games. Now, this is if you can 223 00:11:11.279 --> 00:11:15.080 keep these three receivers healthy and these three receivers on 224 00:11:15.120 --> 00:11:18.279 the field at the same time all together, who did 225 00:11:18.279 --> 00:11:22.759 they lose? Dubs is gone Watson. Watson is my guy 226 00:11:22.799 --> 00:11:24.639 in this group, but I can make an argument for 227 00:11:24.679 --> 00:11:27.519 the other players as well. I think, in much the 228 00:11:27.559 --> 00:11:30.240 same way that we talked about Jacksonville two weeks ago 229 00:11:30.759 --> 00:11:33.240 that the conversation that we need to take from this 230 00:11:33.759 --> 00:11:36.320 goes to the quarterback. I very very much like what 231 00:11:36.399 --> 00:11:40.720 the quarterback can do. The quarterback twenty three tds last 232 00:11:40.759 --> 00:11:45.480 year with only six picks. One of his quarterback rating 233 00:11:45.679 --> 00:11:51.919 was way up in the league amongst the starters. I really, 234 00:11:52.519 --> 00:11:56.480 I really think that, I really think that if you 235 00:11:56.600 --> 00:12:00.159 want to get involved with the Packers, you can look 236 00:12:00.200 --> 00:12:02.480 at the quarterback and get him at a bargain price. 237 00:12:07.240 --> 00:12:11.600 What would our man tell us about that? The mojo 238 00:12:11.720 --> 00:12:14.159 on What did mojo have to say about that? 239 00:12:14.279 --> 00:12:17.320 Armani's mojo has love a quarterback twenty right now. 240 00:12:17.559 --> 00:12:20.879 And it's just free. And so if you like Craft 241 00:12:20.919 --> 00:12:23.039 that much to draft him his seven, then God knows 242 00:12:23.039 --> 00:12:26.240 everybody likes Watson and the two other receivers are open 243 00:12:26.279 --> 00:12:29.279 to debate. I probably like Read best amongst them. But 244 00:12:29.559 --> 00:12:31.519 any way you look at it, if these guys are 245 00:12:31.559 --> 00:12:33.600 going to be that successful draft picks, why aren't you 246 00:12:33.639 --> 00:12:34.559 drafting Jordan Love. 247 00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:38.799 It's a great point, and considering this nebulous situation we 248 00:12:38.879 --> 00:12:42.320 have with Josh Jacobs going on right now, Love still 249 00:12:42.360 --> 00:12:46.799 hasn't risen up to you know, past Mayfield, past Shook, 250 00:12:46.879 --> 00:12:47.720 you know, players like this. 251 00:12:48.120 --> 00:12:49.960 He's still down there, so I think he's a value 252 00:12:50.039 --> 00:12:53.320 right now. I think you're nineteen touchdown passes by Love 253 00:12:53.440 --> 00:12:56.600 to the receiving cord, the outside wide receivers last year. 254 00:12:56.759 --> 00:12:57.720 It's a great number. 255 00:12:58.200 --> 00:13:01.159 I I we're minutes away from announcing the Joe's roster, 256 00:13:01.279 --> 00:13:02.720 maybe just a minute, So I want to get to 257 00:13:02.759 --> 00:13:04.799 one more thing here, Ferrell before we get to that. 258 00:13:05.840 --> 00:13:11.279 Alec Pierce is saying that he could return late in 259 00:13:11.639 --> 00:13:12.519 Colts training camp. 260 00:13:12.600 --> 00:13:14.879 Mike Chapel or Chappelle, I'm not sure how to pronounced. 261 00:13:14.919 --> 00:13:17.840 Apologies to you, Mike, who covers the Colts report of 262 00:13:17.840 --> 00:13:21.080 this today. He had ankle surgery in late April. 263 00:13:21.120 --> 00:13:22.879 Pierce did. He waited on it. 264 00:13:23.360 --> 00:13:25.360 He talked to some doctors and they said you should 265 00:13:25.360 --> 00:13:28.000 probably have the surgery. It's a four to six month 266 00:13:28.080 --> 00:13:31.559 recovery and he had this surgery in April. We don't 267 00:13:31.559 --> 00:13:34.440 know if this dude's going to be active for week 268 00:13:34.480 --> 00:13:38.919 one at this point, when you consider that Michael Pittman's gone, 269 00:13:40.080 --> 00:13:42.960 that Pierce. The Colts were expecting big things from Pierce 270 00:13:43.000 --> 00:13:46.360 this year, and now I wonder if Pierce is being 271 00:13:46.360 --> 00:13:50.759 overdrafted and guys like Tyler Warren and Josh Downs should 272 00:13:50.799 --> 00:13:52.919 be moved up because I'm a little bit nervous about 273 00:13:52.919 --> 00:13:56.679 Pierce not only not starting the season on time, but 274 00:13:56.879 --> 00:13:59.480 maybe you know, having a slow start to the season 275 00:13:59.480 --> 00:14:02.600 that maybe goes into October while he kind of gets 276 00:14:02.679 --> 00:14:06.279 up into football ship because he'll missing training camp. I 277 00:14:06.279 --> 00:14:09.519 think I'm off Alec Pierce and I gotta be you know, 278 00:14:09.639 --> 00:14:12.279 on Downs and Warren at this point, and maybe Ady 279 00:14:12.360 --> 00:14:16.159 Mitchell is or not Adie Mitchell. Uh oh god, I 280 00:14:16.279 --> 00:14:18.240 gotta bring up my cold step chart. The other the 281 00:14:18.279 --> 00:14:24.120 other receiver there in Indianapolis not Downs and obviously warns 282 00:14:24.159 --> 00:14:27.360 the tight end the other. I know they drafted Dion Burks. 283 00:14:27.399 --> 00:14:30.960 It's a westbrookikini late in in basketball. You can look 284 00:14:31.000 --> 00:14:33.000 at that guy as well. So I don't know, man, 285 00:14:33.159 --> 00:14:35.600 I'm kind of down about Alec Pierce after after reading 286 00:14:35.639 --> 00:14:38.919 this today from from Mike Chappel, I would. 287 00:14:38.840 --> 00:14:41.240 Encourage everyone in the league to get down on him 288 00:14:41.279 --> 00:14:43.879 where I can continue draft from him and drafting late. Now. 289 00:14:45.879 --> 00:14:49.960 This player is who they want to target. He's the 290 00:14:50.000 --> 00:14:52.720 guy that's going to carry Jones. That's that's what it's 291 00:14:52.759 --> 00:14:56.279 all about. This is a great downfield pass catcher, but 292 00:14:56.320 --> 00:14:59.279 you're a right bulky. He's got to get downfield. He's 293 00:14:59.480 --> 00:15:04.200 unquietionable that he can do so many things what you're 294 00:15:04.200 --> 00:15:08.200 looking at as a receiver to be successful. He high 295 00:15:08.200 --> 00:15:13.399 points the ball, he wins the contested catches ses, he's 296 00:15:13.600 --> 00:15:16.919 glued to the deep pass. He's everything you want in 297 00:15:17.039 --> 00:15:21.200 a downfield receiver. This is the most disturbing news that 298 00:15:21.320 --> 00:15:23.919 anyone who's been drafting early should have, because if you 299 00:15:24.000 --> 00:15:26.679 drafted this guy, you believe in this guy. You drafted 300 00:15:26.799 --> 00:15:28.759 doing for a reason. You just didn't throw out a 301 00:15:28.759 --> 00:15:31.840 pick out there. A lot of the people are you know, 302 00:15:32.000 --> 00:15:35.120 good about Downs? And yeah, Downs is a good little receiver, 303 00:15:35.240 --> 00:15:39.200 good little complimentary receivers. It's not the kind of player 304 00:15:39.639 --> 00:15:42.080 that this guy is. There's no player that I'm rooting 305 00:15:42.120 --> 00:15:47.559 for more to return in full health because I'm really 306 00:15:47.600 --> 00:15:50.279 anxious to see what he's what he could do. And 307 00:15:50.320 --> 00:15:52.519 you know how much I love Pittman. I love the 308 00:15:52.559 --> 00:15:56.320 new location for Pittman. But Pittman leaving opens up a 309 00:15:56.360 --> 00:15:59.279 world of possibilities for this player. So I hope he 310 00:15:59.279 --> 00:16:01.159 heals very aggressively. 311 00:16:01.519 --> 00:16:04.120 Yeah, and I have I have some alec Pierce. I 312 00:16:04.200 --> 00:16:05.840 was drafting him early because I thought I was getting 313 00:16:05.840 --> 00:16:07.799 a deal on him, and now I'm kind of a 314 00:16:07.799 --> 00:16:12.159 little nervous that wide receiver depth behind him in September. 315 00:16:12.200 --> 00:16:14.480 At least the buys don't start till week five. 316 00:16:14.919 --> 00:16:16.440 But yeah, it is. 317 00:16:16.480 --> 00:16:20.320 It's still a little still a little uh nerve wracking. 318 00:16:20.360 --> 00:16:23.919 Okay, we have Ak's got a question as we'll go 319 00:16:23.919 --> 00:16:26.879 ahead and answer that. Don't don't don't rewind Frankie. 320 00:16:27.960 --> 00:16:30.679 No, that's that's what I'm postrank Frankie said, just getting 321 00:16:30.679 --> 00:16:31.120 off work. 322 00:16:31.360 --> 00:16:33.200 Do I need to start from the beginning. 323 00:16:32.840 --> 00:16:35.000 To see pros Versus Joe's or is that coming later? 324 00:16:35.080 --> 00:16:39.039 Still I'm glad you put the word work in there. Yeah. Yeah, 325 00:16:39.039 --> 00:16:39.559 that was good. 326 00:16:40.039 --> 00:16:45.360 Yeah, crucial otherwise we'll be demonetized by by YouTube. Scott 327 00:16:45.440 --> 00:16:47.039 Kobe is going to be joining us on Friday for 328 00:16:47.120 --> 00:16:50.279 extra reps, says, I'm about to announce him, and that's it. 329 00:16:50.279 --> 00:16:53.799 It is time to announce twenty twenty six roster for 330 00:16:53.879 --> 00:16:56.519 the f FPC Pros Versus Joe's. As a reminder, the 331 00:16:56.600 --> 00:16:59.120 names I'm about to mention all had their main event 332 00:16:59.159 --> 00:17:03.080 teams in by and paid in full by May thirty 333 00:17:03.080 --> 00:17:05.640 first the early bird deadline, they got entered into the drawing. 334 00:17:05.720 --> 00:17:09.200 Thank you so much for the support for everybody supporting 335 00:17:09.200 --> 00:17:11.640 the FFPC Main Event this year. It's a ton of 336 00:17:11.759 --> 00:17:14.279 entries and we had to narrow it down to forty two. 337 00:17:15.400 --> 00:17:17.960 Each one of these teams or players I should mention, 338 00:17:18.599 --> 00:17:21.319 will have the opportunity to draft in a twelve team 339 00:17:21.400 --> 00:17:24.839 league against five other Joes and six other industry pros. 340 00:17:25.039 --> 00:17:28.440 The winners of each of those leagues will win a 341 00:17:29.200 --> 00:17:32.839 twenty twenty seven FFPC Main Event entry, which is twenty 342 00:17:32.839 --> 00:17:35.920 two hundred bucks. Farrell may or may not be sending 343 00:17:36.240 --> 00:17:39.440 the second place team a pair of socks. 344 00:17:39.480 --> 00:17:41.039 We don't know. We have the socks covering. 345 00:17:41.160 --> 00:17:43.880 Okay, the socks are coming. And then I believe ARMANI 346 00:17:43.960 --> 00:17:46.400 and I have to check and I didn't see, but 347 00:17:46.480 --> 00:17:49.279 he's been putting together a championship belt for the overall 348 00:17:49.319 --> 00:17:52.079 winner out of all eighty four teams the last couple 349 00:17:52.119 --> 00:17:52.480 of years. 350 00:17:52.640 --> 00:17:54.960 See and I'm predicting that out he's forty two. At 351 00:17:55.000 --> 00:17:57.559 least eight to twelve of the guys are regularly seeing 352 00:17:57.599 --> 00:18:01.119 a podiatrist for some foot issue. I think that's probably 353 00:18:01.119 --> 00:18:04.519 what's going on. That's why we have socks, Bourbon socks. 354 00:18:04.519 --> 00:18:08.880 According to Sean Green Ring those bad boys out. 355 00:18:09.559 --> 00:18:12.920 All right, without further ado, here are the names I'm 356 00:18:12.920 --> 00:18:16.559 gonna read co owners as well.
