So I'm excited tonight. 50 00:02:33.599 --> 00:02:35.680 Well, I'm excited to talk ball with you because one 51 00:02:35.680 --> 00:02:38.039 of the one of the blessings I have for doing 52 00:02:38.080 --> 00:02:40.479 this show is I can bring people like you on 53 00:02:40.599 --> 00:02:43.120 every single week and I learn from them. 54 00:02:43.199 --> 00:02:44.960 So it's kind of like a selfish thing, too. 55 00:02:44.919 --> 00:02:47.599 Right, because I'm bringing you out, picking your brain and 56 00:02:47.599 --> 00:02:50.039 I'm learning a lot. So the first thing I want 57 00:02:50.080 --> 00:02:52.199 to ask you about before we get into the actual 58 00:02:52.240 --> 00:02:55.879 fantasy content. You run the YouTube channel, the League FFB. 59 00:02:56.319 --> 00:02:58.680 This is your baby. Tell us a little bit about 60 00:02:58.719 --> 00:03:01.080 that and the content that you're producing for it. 61 00:03:02.000 --> 00:03:04.360 Yeah, So I've been doing the League FFB as a 62 00:03:04.599 --> 00:03:07.680 YouTube brand for probably three and a half years now, 63 00:03:07.759 --> 00:03:09.199 we're going into our fourth season. 64 00:03:09.919 --> 00:03:10.719 So started this. 65 00:03:10.680 --> 00:03:14.400 Really a couple of years back, just background in content 66 00:03:14.439 --> 00:03:16.439 in general. I went to film school, so you know, 67 00:03:16.479 --> 00:03:18.319 I've been doing content for a long time now, but 68 00:03:18.360 --> 00:03:21.120 I decided eventually I just wanted to talk football and 69 00:03:21.159 --> 00:03:22.840 that was where my passion was at. So why not 70 00:03:22.879 --> 00:03:24.800 just make this something that I do full time. So 71 00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:27.319 that's kind of how I got into it. Over there, 72 00:03:27.360 --> 00:03:30.159 we talked Dynasty fantasy football year round. That's what we 73 00:03:30.240 --> 00:03:34.080 do so rookies trades. Love talking Dynasty trades one of 74 00:03:34.080 --> 00:03:36.319 my favorite things to do. So yeah, we talk all 75 00:03:36.360 --> 00:03:38.400 of that over there. Spent some time over the last 76 00:03:38.439 --> 00:03:42.800 couple of years with BDGE and now Dynasty Nerds. So yeah, 77 00:03:42.960 --> 00:03:45.719 just been a crazy couple of years in the industry, 78 00:03:45.759 --> 00:03:47.879 but I've been enjoying it so much, man, Yeah, it 79 00:03:48.240 --> 00:03:48.759 is a blast. 80 00:03:48.800 --> 00:03:50.919 Where did you go to film school? 81 00:03:51.360 --> 00:03:55.039 I went to Weaver State in Utah. Yeah, so I 82 00:03:55.039 --> 00:03:57.800 was at Weber State and was part of their film 83 00:03:57.800 --> 00:03:58.360 program there. 84 00:03:58.560 --> 00:03:59.759 Shout out Damian Lillard. 85 00:04:00.280 --> 00:04:01.479 Yeah, shout out Damian Lillard. 86 00:04:01.680 --> 00:04:05.560 So did you have you shot, like, have you directed 87 00:04:05.599 --> 00:04:08.639 films or like what were you involved that cause one 88 00:04:08.680 --> 00:04:10.879 of my degrees I have is radio TV film. But 89 00:04:10.960 --> 00:04:13.080 like film was the one part I really didn't do 90 00:04:13.120 --> 00:04:15.280 a whole lot with, so I don't really know all 91 00:04:15.280 --> 00:04:16.759 the ins and outs of it. 92 00:04:16.839 --> 00:04:20.040 Were you behind the camera, in front of the camera, directing, producing? Like, 93 00:04:20.040 --> 00:04:21.759 did you do it all? All of it? 94 00:04:21.839 --> 00:04:22.040 Man? 95 00:04:22.120 --> 00:04:24.319 So during my time there, I worked with the studio 96 00:04:24.360 --> 00:04:27.680 called Studio seventy six and I did some short films. 97 00:04:27.720 --> 00:04:33.120 We had some a horror short film back in twenty twenty, 98 00:04:33.839 --> 00:04:37.160 right before COVID started, and that won some awards over 99 00:04:37.279 --> 00:04:38.240 in Salt Lake City. 100 00:04:38.279 --> 00:04:40.439 So we did a short film there. I was producing 101 00:04:40.439 --> 00:04:40.759 that one. 102 00:04:40.800 --> 00:04:42.639 I did some of the editing on that one as well, 103 00:04:42.879 --> 00:04:45.160 And then we had some podcasts and some other stuff. 104 00:04:45.160 --> 00:04:47.399 And I've done a little bit of acting in front 105 00:04:47.399 --> 00:04:50.519 of the camera. But I'll say I like doing the 106 00:04:50.560 --> 00:04:53.319 background work on food the films and the movies a 107 00:04:53.360 --> 00:04:55.920 little bit more than I do being the actor. 108 00:04:56.199 --> 00:04:59.959 Yeah, no, I get that a wholeheartedly. That makes perfect sense. 109 00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:03.600 So what's the if people wanted to watch the film, 110 00:05:03.639 --> 00:05:05.720 the horror film that you made, whatever it was, six 111 00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:08.519 years ago? Now, can they still watch that online? 112 00:05:08.519 --> 00:05:09.519 Somewhere? Is there? 113 00:05:09.600 --> 00:05:11.800 Is there a way that they can they can enjoy it. 114 00:05:11.800 --> 00:05:13.639 It might it might still be online. 115 00:05:13.759 --> 00:05:15.959 You would probably have to go to YouTube and go 116 00:05:16.040 --> 00:05:19.519 to Studio seventy six on YouTube, and you'd probably have 117 00:05:19.560 --> 00:05:20.920 to scroll down there and find it. 118 00:05:21.639 --> 00:05:23.639 Uh, what was it called? What was it called? 119 00:05:23.879 --> 00:05:25.240 I'm trying to remember what it was called. 120 00:05:25.439 --> 00:05:27.240 Well, what was the gist of it? Like, what was 121 00:05:27.240 --> 00:05:28.639 the angle? What was the slant of it? 122 00:05:29.120 --> 00:05:33.480 So it was basically a all female rock band group 123 00:05:33.680 --> 00:05:37.480 that ended up getting invited to a gig downtown. They 124 00:05:37.519 --> 00:05:40.160 went to it turned out that it was not actually 125 00:05:40.199 --> 00:05:43.480 a gig. It was more of like this demonic seance 126 00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:46.360 kind of thing. There was a cult leader there. They 127 00:05:46.439 --> 00:05:48.279 ended up having to fight their way out. Somebody got 128 00:05:48.279 --> 00:05:50.879 a drumstick through the eyeball. Like that's just kind of 129 00:05:50.879 --> 00:05:52.639 the whole vibe of what was going on. So it 130 00:05:52.680 --> 00:05:54.279 was pretty fun, it was. It was more so like 131 00:05:54.360 --> 00:05:58.160 a kind of like a lighthearted horror thriller kind of film. 132 00:05:58.240 --> 00:06:01.160 I got youa Okay, yeah, I actually and this is 133 00:06:01.199 --> 00:06:03.439 neither here nor there, but I also co host a 134 00:06:03.879 --> 00:06:07.839 movie pop culture podcast and the guy I co host 135 00:06:07.879 --> 00:06:10.120 it with he's way more into horror than I am. 136 00:06:10.360 --> 00:06:12.000 And he was just telling me, have you ever heard 137 00:06:12.000 --> 00:06:13.920 about this film called green Room? It was an a 138 00:06:14.079 --> 00:06:16.040 twenty four production. I don't know how old it is now, 139 00:06:16.079 --> 00:06:19.600 ten fifteen years. Basically, it was a heavy metal band 140 00:06:20.000 --> 00:06:24.839 that is performing at this at this gig, at this bar, 141 00:06:25.000 --> 00:06:27.480 and I think it was kind of like there is 142 00:06:27.519 --> 00:06:31.079 like a like a white supremacist vibe to this bar. Well, anyway, 143 00:06:31.120 --> 00:06:34.079 somebody gets murdered at this bar and the band wants 144 00:06:34.120 --> 00:06:36.600 to get out of there, but they can't. And I said, Ben, 145 00:06:36.680 --> 00:06:39.079 how can they not just just leave? And he tells me, 146 00:06:39.160 --> 00:06:40.920 He's like, you got to watch the movie. I'm not 147 00:06:40.959 --> 00:06:43.079 going to tell you how they can't leave because everything 148 00:06:43.120 --> 00:06:45.680 you think of that they can do, the movie explains 149 00:06:45.720 --> 00:06:48.480 why they can't do it. So basically they're trapped in 150 00:06:48.560 --> 00:06:50.759 the green Room the entire time they're trying to get out. 151 00:06:50.759 --> 00:06:53.439 So I don't know something. Maybe you're into it. 152 00:06:53.399 --> 00:06:55.800 Maybe you're not. But I I just was talking about. 153 00:06:55.720 --> 00:06:57.800 A few days maybe, and I feel like an important 154 00:06:57.800 --> 00:07:01.199 part that I should have mentioned that film festival that 155 00:07:01.279 --> 00:07:03.800 we did. It's like they send you a prompt so 156 00:07:03.839 --> 00:07:05.920 you can't like pre make your stuff, so you kind 157 00:07:05.920 --> 00:07:07.399 of have like some of these things given to you, 158 00:07:07.439 --> 00:07:08.800 So like we had to use a prop in the 159 00:07:08.839 --> 00:07:11.959 movie that they gave to us. We had to use 160 00:07:12.399 --> 00:07:14.800 a line that they wrote for us some point in it. 161 00:07:14.839 --> 00:07:16.759 So like that way you know that you're not pre 162 00:07:16.879 --> 00:07:21.360 making a movie. You have seventy two hours to film, edit, 163 00:07:21.519 --> 00:07:23.800 and finish the movie from the time that they send 164 00:07:23.879 --> 00:07:26.040 you the initial email. So we did the whole movie 165 00:07:26.079 --> 00:07:28.319 in seventy two hours. I didn't sleep for two days. 166 00:07:28.360 --> 00:07:31.439 Basically it was not monster energy drinks on the floor 167 00:07:31.480 --> 00:07:33.720 of the studio, like that's what we were doing all night. 168 00:07:33.879 --> 00:07:36.600 So it was really fun. It was really fun. 169 00:07:36.720 --> 00:07:41.079 That's awesome, fantastic to hear. Bringing it back to Fantasy football, 170 00:07:42.000 --> 00:07:43.800 and we'll touch on this before we sign off to 171 00:07:44.800 --> 00:07:47.800 the league.

I mean do you 192 00:08:41.480 --> 00:08:41.919 pop out? 193 00:08:41.960 --> 00:08:42.039 Like? 194 00:08:42.080 --> 00:08:44.480 What is it like two a week or one a week? 195 00:08:44.519 --> 00:08:46.440 How often are you podcasting with Jagger? 196 00:08:47.000 --> 00:08:47.240 Yeah? 197 00:08:47.279 --> 00:08:50.000 So I'm doing two videos a week with Jagger, doing 198 00:08:50.039 --> 00:08:53.039 a podcast with him over on Draft Nerds. That's kind 199 00:08:53.080 --> 00:08:56.799 of our new adventure over there. It's more NFL focused. 200 00:08:56.840 --> 00:08:59.440 There's some defense stuff in there, there's some offensive line. 201 00:08:59.480 --> 00:09:02.559 We're talking to straight up NFL. So it's a lot 202 00:09:02.559 --> 00:09:04.639 of fun stuff over there. And then I'm doing one 203 00:09:04.720 --> 00:09:08.159 show a week over on Dynasty Nerds. Their main feed 204 00:09:08.159 --> 00:09:10.600 for their Dynasty fantasy football stuff with Garrett Price, So 205 00:09:10.799 --> 00:09:12.960 I'm doing about three pieces of content for him this week. 206 00:09:13.159 --> 00:09:15.919 Yeah, which is awesome. Garrett's co hosted this show before. 207 00:09:15.960 --> 00:09:18.440 He's fantastic, and I think we should we should just 208 00:09:18.559 --> 00:09:23.039 make clarify this. Draft Nerds is sort of like the 209 00:09:23.519 --> 00:09:27.039 spinoff of Dynasty Nerds. All under this, but something that 210 00:09:27.080 --> 00:09:29.039 you guys did this is something I'm seeing, like more 211 00:09:29.039 --> 00:09:32.200 and more content producers do is branching off into not 212 00:09:32.360 --> 00:09:35.120 just fantasy aspects. I think the the other thing to 213 00:09:35.200 --> 00:09:37.360 keep in mind too, and I'm going through this right now. 214 00:09:37.960 --> 00:09:40.240 We talk about all these running backs, receivers, tight ends, 215 00:09:40.279 --> 00:09:44.279 quarterbacks for months, Andrew and and we kind of have 216 00:09:44.320 --> 00:09:46.240 to kind of create different ways to talk about it. 217 00:09:46.279 --> 00:09:49.240 We have to create different ways to produce content that's 218 00:09:49.240 --> 00:09:51.600 still fresh and cool, and I think one of the 219 00:09:51.600 --> 00:09:53.960 ways you can do that is also focusing on, Hey, 220 00:09:54.240 --> 00:09:58.080 the offensive line still matters in football, the defensive line, linebackers, 221 00:09:58.120 --> 00:10:01.000 corner safety is the secondary everything. And so that's what 222 00:10:01.159 --> 00:10:03.480 sort of what Draft Nerds gives you that you weren't 223 00:10:03.480 --> 00:10:05.320 getting with Dynasty Nerds before, right. 224 00:10:05.639 --> 00:10:07.559 Yep, exactly, And you got to think of it too. 225 00:10:07.639 --> 00:10:12.000 Like Garrett played football. Jared wackerly over there, he played football. 226 00:10:12.039 --> 00:10:14.080 Like these guys are football guys at the core, you know, 227 00:10:14.159 --> 00:10:15.000 they love fantasy. 228 00:10:15.039 --> 00:10:16.039 We all love dynasty. 229 00:10:16.240 --> 00:10:18.000 I would consider myself a little bit more of a 230 00:10:18.039 --> 00:10:20.600 dynasty guy than a football guy in general that I 231 00:10:20.639 --> 00:10:23.200 love the sport, but dynasty fantasy football is what I 232 00:10:23.279 --> 00:10:24.960 like talking about. But at the end of the day, 233 00:10:25.000 --> 00:10:26.799 these guys are football guys, and this is kind of 234 00:10:26.840 --> 00:10:30.480 another outlet, you know, project for them to just talk 235 00:10:30.559 --> 00:10:31.279 football too. 236 00:10:31.320 --> 00:10:35.519 Sometimes it's fantastic. Dynasty Nerds is blowing up. Andrew Mount's 237 00:10:35.519 --> 00:10:37.159 a big reason for it, and we are going to 238 00:10:37.279 --> 00:10:39.840 delve into some of the analysis on these players. Now, 239 00:10:40.039 --> 00:10:41.799 what I want to do in the first segment tonight, 240 00:10:41.799 --> 00:10:43.559 and I'm telling the viewers as much as I'm telling 241 00:10:43.559 --> 00:10:45.679 you Andrew. First segment is basically going to be a 242 00:10:45.679 --> 00:10:48.000 whip Brown with the NFL, everything that's been going on 243 00:10:48.039 --> 00:10:50.840 and how it affects fantasy football, especially from a Dynasty standpoint. 244 00:10:51.159 --> 00:10:53.120 Then I want to get into something I've never done before, 245 00:10:53.200 --> 00:10:56.639 the Dynasty action plan. Right, So the middle segment tonight 246 00:10:56.879 --> 00:11:00.039 of tonight's show is I'm going to ask Andrew, what 247 00:11:00.080 --> 00:11:03.600 you should be doing with certain players, including but not 248 00:11:03.679 --> 00:11:06.840 limited to, Justin Jefferson, Luther Burden, Sam Laporta like that. 249 00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:09.440 And obviously the answer is gonna be different depending upon 250 00:11:09.519 --> 00:11:11.759 where your team is at as far as contention goes. 251 00:11:11.840 --> 00:11:14.159 But we're gonna give you an action plan, tangible advice 252 00:11:14.159 --> 00:11:16.559 that you can utilize to try to make your team better. 253 00:11:16.679 --> 00:11:18.480 And the short run and the long run and then 254 00:11:18.519 --> 00:11:21.639 the final segment. And this is what I'm most excited about. 255 00:11:21.840 --> 00:11:24.679 We're I'm gonna pick your brain on some of these rookies. 256 00:11:25.480 --> 00:11:27.639 I want to ask you about the big three receivers. 257 00:11:27.679 --> 00:11:29.159 I feel like I talk about it every week, but 258 00:11:29.440 --> 00:11:32.120 I always like getting as many perspectives on it as possible. 259 00:11:32.320 --> 00:11:35.440 I want to get into the tight ends and the 260 00:11:35.519 --> 00:11:37.840 juice that Eli Stowers seems to be picking up lately, 261 00:11:38.320 --> 00:11:40.159 and then obviously the running backs too. So that'll be 262 00:11:40.159 --> 00:11:42.519 the show, all right, Andrew, Let's kick things off in 263 00:11:42.559 --> 00:11:46.039 New York. Zach Rosenblatt, who covers the New York Jets 264 00:11:47.559 --> 00:11:50.000 for The Athletic, reports that there's a sixty to forty 265 00:11:50.080 --> 00:11:53.440 chance that Breese Hall will sign an extension with the 266 00:11:53.519 --> 00:11:58.399 Jets after the NFL Draft completes later next month. Now, 267 00:11:58.879 --> 00:12:02.519 the other forty percent is ostensibly not a trade or 268 00:12:02.519 --> 00:12:04.799 anything like that. It's him playing on the franchise tag 269 00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:08.240 for twenty twenty six. He is twenty four, he will 270 00:12:08.240 --> 00:12:12.720 turn twenty five this year, and I don't exactly know 271 00:12:12.759 --> 00:12:16.320 why the Jets view him as a foundational piece when 272 00:12:16.320 --> 00:12:18.879 they have so many other holes to fill on this team, 273 00:12:19.200 --> 00:12:23.720 including the quarterback position. I think from a dynasty standpoint here, 274 00:12:24.399 --> 00:12:26.600 it's kind of a double edged sword, right because I 275 00:12:26.600 --> 00:12:29.039 mean I don't view Braillen Allen or Isaiah Davis or 276 00:12:29.039 --> 00:12:29.679 any of these other. 277 00:12:29.600 --> 00:12:31.320 Guys as serious threats to Hall. 278 00:12:31.600 --> 00:12:34.200 We know how talented he is, but the problem is 279 00:12:34.240 --> 00:12:38.519 here it's not a good offense. And as far as 280 00:12:38.159 --> 00:12:41.720 as far as Hall goes, the maybe what we do 281 00:12:41.840 --> 00:12:45.240 here is we shop him around. The question is how 282 00:12:45.240 --> 00:12:47.919 many cents on the dollar are we willing to take? 283 00:12:48.960 --> 00:12:50.600 Is it eighty cents? Is it ninety cents? If we 284 00:12:50.600 --> 00:12:52.399 want to rid ourselves a Breese Hall? And at what 285 00:12:52.480 --> 00:12:54.840 point do we just say, Okay, no, we want to 286 00:12:54.879 --> 00:12:57.720 see what happens here. How much fantasy goodness do you 287 00:12:57.799 --> 00:13:00.360 think is on the way for Breese Hall and his 288 00:13:00.399 --> 00:13:01.600 owners in twenty twenty six. 289 00:13:02.600 --> 00:13:04.440 Yeah, twenty twenty six for me, I think is looking 290 00:13:04.480 --> 00:13:06.279 a little bit rough for Breese Hall, just because I 291 00:13:06.440 --> 00:13:08.960 do not project that offense to be very good. I 292 00:13:09.000 --> 00:13:12.120 think best case scenario for the Jets is that they 293 00:13:12.159 --> 00:13:14.600 do bring in a Ty Simpson or a Garrett Nussmeier 294 00:13:14.679 --> 00:13:18.840 and that somehow helps them improve their offense. But really, 295 00:13:18.879 --> 00:13:20.879 when you look at it from a critical lens and say, 296 00:13:21.080 --> 00:13:23.559 what incentive do the Jets actually have to bring a 297 00:13:23.600 --> 00:13:26.519 guy like that in when they have multiple draft picks 298 00:13:26.519 --> 00:13:28.200 and a chance to go get a top five guy 299 00:13:28.200 --> 00:13:30.559 in next year's draft class, A guy who evaded the 300 00:13:30.639 --> 00:13:33.519 Jets in the NFL Draft in Dante Moore who ended 301 00:13:33.600 --> 00:13:36.159 up going back to school. He could be right back 302 00:13:36.159 --> 00:13:38.639 and play for the Jets again next year. I just 303 00:13:38.759 --> 00:13:40.919 don't think this is going to be an offense that 304 00:13:41.000 --> 00:13:43.279 really goes out and fixes the quarterback position. So I 305 00:13:43.279 --> 00:13:45.679 think we are looking at a team that's probably looking 306 00:13:45.759 --> 00:13:48.960 at a pretty poor year from an offensive efficiency standpoint. 307 00:13:49.039 --> 00:13:52.399 So for me with Breese Hall, I do kind of 308 00:13:52.399 --> 00:13:55.679 want to see if that extension comes because I think 309 00:13:55.759 --> 00:13:58.840 if he plays on the tag this year, it's almost 310 00:13:59.080 --> 00:14:01.600 as good as gone for him the following year, because 311 00:14:01.639 --> 00:14:04.440 I don't think Brece Hall as a player is going 312 00:14:04.519 --> 00:14:06.919 to go back be in that same environment after some 313 00:14:06.960 --> 00:14:09.440 of the disgruntled behavior that we saw from him this 314 00:14:09.519 --> 00:14:12.600 year over on Twitter, talking about like I don't want 315 00:14:12.600 --> 00:14:14.480 to be here really is basically what he was saying 316 00:14:14.519 --> 00:14:16.840 on the internet. If he goes out and has to 317 00:14:16.879 --> 00:14:19.320 do it again, I can't imagine you can even force 318 00:14:19.399 --> 00:14:22.279 his hand to sign an extension unless they're giving him 319 00:14:22.279 --> 00:14:23.919 a bag of money, which maybe the Jets are stupid 320 00:14:24.000 --> 00:14:24.360 enough to do. 321 00:14:24.440 --> 00:14:24.519 So. 322 00:14:25.759 --> 00:14:29.120 Yeah, and I think, like, honestly, the plan should be 323 00:14:29.919 --> 00:14:33.399 don't take a quarterback this year, roll with Gino, agree, 324 00:14:33.720 --> 00:14:36.279 and then next year you should be bad and you 325 00:14:36.279 --> 00:14:38.639 should have your pick of a pretty good I mean 326 00:14:38.639 --> 00:14:40.200 we said this at this point, at least I did. 327 00:14:40.639 --> 00:14:42.919 I said this last year, Hey, pretty good quarterback class 328 00:14:42.919 --> 00:14:43.759 in twenty twenty six. 329 00:14:43.799 --> 00:14:45.639 It's going to be fun. And now it's not that great. 330 00:14:46.320 --> 00:14:48.720 And we could be saying this about twenty twenty seven next, 331 00:14:48.759 --> 00:14:52.440 you know, with you mentioned it with Moore in Oregon, 332 00:14:53.080 --> 00:14:57.679 with Chambliss in Mississippi, Manning and Texas. Who am I 333 00:14:57.720 --> 00:14:59.600 forgetting about? There's another big one. 334 00:14:59.679 --> 00:15:02.120 Seller this is gonna be in there. Julian Sayan could 335 00:15:02.120 --> 00:15:05.240 be in there as well. Like there's a ton of 336 00:15:05.279 --> 00:15:08.279 really good quarterbacks, if you like Sam Levitt transferring from 337 00:15:08.360 --> 00:15:11.480 ASU going to LSU and maybe getting a bump being 338 00:15:11.519 --> 00:15:13.679 there in LSU, like he could be a first round guy. 339 00:15:13.919 --> 00:15:16.519 I truly believe, you know, twenty twenty four, we had 340 00:15:16.519 --> 00:15:19.840 the six first round quarterbacks in that draft class. I 341 00:15:19.879 --> 00:15:22.720 think we could rival that again in twenty twenty seven. 342 00:15:22.720 --> 00:15:24.159 I think we could get five or six of them 343 00:15:24.200 --> 00:15:24.600 next year. 344 00:15:25.120 --> 00:15:28.840 Who's the cat that is Indiana's quarterback next year? 345 00:15:29.519 --> 00:15:32.000 Josh Hooverer. He transferred from TCU and. 346 00:15:32.440 --> 00:15:34.600 He's not he would not Would he be eligible next 347 00:15:34.679 --> 00:15:36.039 year as well? I don't even know how good. 348 00:15:36.120 --> 00:15:38.879 Yes, he will be eligible and he could see a 349 00:15:38.919 --> 00:15:41.120 bump too. They got to transfer in Nick marsh coming 350 00:15:41.120 --> 00:15:44.200 over from Michigan. Who's gonna be probably one of the 351 00:15:44.399 --> 00:15:47.120 sneaky or wide receiver prospects that's not being talked about 352 00:15:47.200 --> 00:15:49.399 right now, but should be getting talked about probably by 353 00:15:49.399 --> 00:15:50.240 this time next year. 354 00:15:51.200 --> 00:15:54.399 It's gonna be fun for anybody picking. It's gonna be 355 00:15:54.480 --> 00:15:56.840 fun for fans, you know, especially the Jets, where you 356 00:15:56.879 --> 00:15:58.519 know you could go any which way. Now, the problem 357 00:15:58.559 --> 00:16:00.879 is Jets fans are probably like, there's all these good 358 00:16:01.080 --> 00:16:03.399 guys here, we could get in the top five. You 359 00:16:03.440 --> 00:16:05.600 know we're gonna pick the wrong one, and quite frankly, 360 00:16:05.679 --> 00:16:07.559 that may happen, but at least you have the opportunity 361 00:16:07.799 --> 00:16:11.080 to get it right. Okay. Speaking of running backs, Naji 362 00:16:11.159 --> 00:16:14.080 Harris back in the news as he had a visit 363 00:16:14.159 --> 00:16:19.600 yesterday Andrew with the Seattle Seahawks. No Kenneth Walker, obviously there, 364 00:16:20.240 --> 00:16:23.759 Zach charbon Ay probably gonna miss most, if not all, 365 00:16:23.840 --> 00:16:26.600 of the twenty twenty six season. Manuel Wilson signs for 366 00:16:26.679 --> 00:16:29.679 basically backup money, but he's technically the start of there 367 00:16:29.720 --> 00:16:31.919 right now. He's probably the most experienced guy that they 368 00:16:31.960 --> 00:16:36.320 got that's healthy. Last season fifteen carries sixty one yards 369 00:16:36.360 --> 00:16:39.559 and just three weeks with the Chargers before he ripped 370 00:16:39.600 --> 00:16:43.039 up that achilles. He is twenty eight years old right now. 371 00:16:43.559 --> 00:16:46.279 This is as much a Najie Harris question as it 372 00:16:46.360 --> 00:16:49.519 is a Seattle question. Andrew, as we look into the 373 00:16:49.559 --> 00:16:52.720 Motte crystal ball, what do you think Seattle's plan is 374 00:16:52.799 --> 00:16:55.519 at running back and how do we exploit that for 375 00:16:55.600 --> 00:16:57.080 fantasy football this season? 376 00:16:57.720 --> 00:16:57.919 Yeah? 377 00:16:57.960 --> 00:16:59.600 I think the unfortunate thing is it's probably gonna be 378 00:16:59.600 --> 00:17:02.480 a little bit of a patchwork job from Seattle this year. 379 00:17:02.600 --> 00:17:04.359 I talked about it a couple of weeks ago when 380 00:17:04.720 --> 00:17:07.960 Brian Robinson still had not signed, and I said, Brian Robinson, 381 00:17:08.039 --> 00:17:10.440 Najee Harris, there's a couple guys still in that free 382 00:17:10.440 --> 00:17:13.200 agent market that I could see getting added. And Bainley 383 00:17:13.319 --> 00:17:15.160 was talking about that as a reason to try and 384 00:17:15.240 --> 00:17:17.480 flip and sell your Emmanuel Wilson off the. 385 00:17:17.880 --> 00:17:19.759 Perceived starter role that he had. 386 00:17:20.200 --> 00:17:22.039 But I also don't think that this is a team 387 00:17:22.079 --> 00:17:25.559 that's gonna avoid running back in the NFL draft. I mean, 388 00:17:25.599 --> 00:17:27.799 it's not the strongest running back class. You've heard every 389 00:17:27.839 --> 00:17:31.119 content creator, every analyst, anybody who's you know, put their 390 00:17:31.160 --> 00:17:32.559 eyes on this class. They'll tell you that it's not 391 00:17:32.599 --> 00:17:34.759 the strongest. Doesn't mean that there's not guys that are 392 00:17:34.799 --> 00:17:37.160 capable of stepping in and having a role in an 393 00:17:37.240 --> 00:17:39.039 NFL offense. It just means that they might not be 394 00:17:39.200 --> 00:17:41.920 day one starters or superstar level type of players at 395 00:17:41.920 --> 00:17:44.400 the next level. But Seattle's one of the spots where 396 00:17:44.759 --> 00:17:47.519 if you were going to give somebody opportunity from day 397 00:17:47.559 --> 00:17:49.920 one to figure out if they are capable of it 398 00:17:50.039 --> 00:17:52.759 or not, that's the spot to go. So I would 399 00:17:52.799 --> 00:17:55.440 almost expect this to be a team that's in on 400 00:17:55.480 --> 00:17:58.519 a Mike Washington, in on a Jendarian Price, in on, 401 00:17:58.839 --> 00:18:00.359 you know, one of these other guys in the NFL 402 00:18:00.440 --> 00:18:02.640 draft to see if he could come in and compete 403 00:18:02.680 --> 00:18:06.079 with probably a veteran like Najie Harris and Emmanuel Wilson 404 00:18:06.119 --> 00:18:08.799 as well, just to patchwork them through this year. And 405 00:18:08.839 --> 00:18:12.319 then you have to assume in the future, with Zach 406 00:18:12.440 --> 00:18:14.920 Charbonay likely not going to be playing too much this year, 407 00:18:15.160 --> 00:18:17.400 that contract extension that he's going to be looking to 408 00:18:17.440 --> 00:18:20.440 get the following summer, it's probably not going to be 409 00:18:20.480 --> 00:18:22.359 as big because he hasn't been on the football field, 410 00:18:22.400 --> 00:18:24.720 so he probably remains in Seattle as their guy. 411 00:18:25.240 --> 00:18:27.279 You know, as you're saying this, and I was talking 412 00:18:27.319 --> 00:18:29.200 about this on one of my other shows last night, 413 00:18:29.799 --> 00:18:32.279 it just it seems to me that it would work 414 00:18:32.319 --> 00:18:35.400 out well for a team that needs a quarterback to 415 00:18:35.599 --> 00:18:39.240 trade up to thirty two with Seattle to get Ty 416 00:18:39.319 --> 00:18:41.440 Simpson if he's still available there, he's steaming up a 417 00:18:41.480 --> 00:18:43.880 little bit as well, and then Seattle can drop back 418 00:18:43.920 --> 00:18:46.720 into the early second round and grab. You know, I've 419 00:18:46.720 --> 00:18:49.519 been saying Price, I think Washington is an excellent choice 420 00:18:49.559 --> 00:18:52.880 as well. And then you can cobble together like whether 421 00:18:52.920 --> 00:18:55.000 it's Harris or not, it's probably gonna be somebody else. 422 00:18:55.359 --> 00:18:58.440 So it's gonna be a Harris type, a rookie and 423 00:18:58.519 --> 00:19:01.480 Emmanuel Wilson. And then next year, when Charbonne is healthy, 424 00:19:01.720 --> 00:19:04.319 they let Wilson go, they let this other veteran go, 425 00:19:04.480 --> 00:19:05.720 and then all of a sudden we're looking at a 426 00:19:05.759 --> 00:19:08.599 tandem backfield again of Charbona and whoever the rookie is. 427 00:19:08.640 --> 00:19:10.400 At least that's the way I would I would see it, 428 00:19:10.720 --> 00:19:13.440 and I think that's most likely, but God knows what's 429 00:19:13.440 --> 00:19:17.359 going to happen. It's the NFL. Anything's possible. Go to 430 00:19:17.440 --> 00:19:22.359 Kansas City. Patrick Mahomes is recovering from knee surgery right now, 431 00:19:22.400 --> 00:19:26.240 and the chiefs are optimistic Andrew and I'm putting that 432 00:19:26.359 --> 00:19:29.920 quotes for the audio listeners that he is going to 433 00:19:30.039 --> 00:19:36.759 be able to practice in OTA's right, yeah, OTAs in May, 434 00:19:37.880 --> 00:19:40.240 which you know he's not going to be doing everything, 435 00:19:40.240 --> 00:19:42.880 but they want him to be doing something. There torn 436 00:19:42.920 --> 00:19:46.599 acl torn LCL And it's funny because we saw a 437 00:19:46.640 --> 00:19:49.039 little bit of a different Patrick Mahomes this year. Set 438 00:19:49.039 --> 00:19:51.359 a career high in rushing four hundred and twenty two 439 00:19:51.440 --> 00:19:55.559 yards last season in just fourteen games, and some of 440 00:19:55.559 --> 00:19:58.960 that was necessitated by the lack of threats on the 441 00:19:59.000 --> 00:20:04.000 perimeter by an aging Travis Kelcey, by some injuries, and 442 00:20:05.119 --> 00:20:08.119 I think it's kind of baked into his ADP where 443 00:20:08.119 --> 00:20:11.880 he's like quarterback twelve right now from a redraft standpoint, anyway, 444 00:20:12.680 --> 00:20:15.039 it's kind of baked into that where he probably won't 445 00:20:15.039 --> 00:20:17.200 be running as much this year. But I really don't 446 00:20:17.200 --> 00:20:19.240 know what they're gonna do for the weapons as well 447 00:20:19.480 --> 00:20:23.000 as we stand right now, At what point do you 448 00:20:23.200 --> 00:20:26.920 think Mahomes takes over that he's back under center for 449 00:20:27.000 --> 00:20:31.240 Kansas City. Are you gleaning anything of how the Chiefs 450 00:20:31.279 --> 00:20:35.079 feel about this injury recovery based on their acquisition of 451 00:20:35.319 --> 00:20:39.000 Justin Fields and what should we expect from another year 452 00:20:39.400 --> 00:20:43.400 of Mahomes and Kelsey and then obviously throwing Xavier Worthy 453 00:20:43.440 --> 00:20:45.839 and Rashid Rice in there as well? As we get 454 00:20:45.839 --> 00:20:49.119 this information that they're hopeful that he's practicing and may 455 00:20:49.200 --> 00:20:51.319 at least on a limited basis. 456 00:20:51.119 --> 00:20:53.799 Yeah, I mean, I think that's gonna be the million 457 00:20:53.799 --> 00:20:55.640 dollar question is when he's going to be available. I 458 00:20:55.680 --> 00:20:58.680 think the Justin Fields edition does signal that, yes, they're 459 00:20:58.720 --> 00:21:00.240 saying they think he's going to be good, but they 460 00:21:00.279 --> 00:21:03.160 want the insurance policy just in case. And from a 461 00:21:03.200 --> 00:21:07.480 fantasy perspective, that also kind of makes Justin Fields interesting again. 462 00:21:07.880 --> 00:21:09.720 I don't know if that really makes me excited, but 463 00:21:10.519 --> 00:21:13.079 we're talking about Justin Fields again. As far as win, 464 00:21:13.079 --> 00:21:14.880 do I think he's gonna play, I really wouldn't be 465 00:21:14.960 --> 00:21:17.720 surprised man to see him suit it up by week four, 466 00:21:18.000 --> 00:21:20.039 ready to go by week four. Like I think he's 467 00:21:20.039 --> 00:21:22.680 the first month of the season type of guy. I'm 468 00:21:22.680 --> 00:21:26.440 more intrigued to see how they handle that number nine 469 00:21:26.480 --> 00:21:29.480 overall pick in the NFL Draft. I have been talking 470 00:21:29.519 --> 00:21:32.599 about number nine being a great spot for them to go. 471 00:21:32.599 --> 00:21:35.359 Get them another receiving weapon, Rashie Rice, the off the 472 00:21:35.359 --> 00:21:39.480 field stuff, you know, some of the disappointment from Xavier Worthy, 473 00:21:39.599 --> 00:21:42.519 the aging of Travis Kelcey. It does leave a little 474 00:21:42.519 --> 00:21:45.480 bit to be desired in that receiving room. And we 475 00:21:45.559 --> 00:21:47.720 got three guys that I really like in this year's class, 476 00:21:47.839 --> 00:21:50.799 Lemon Tyson and Tate. I think Tate would be awesome 477 00:21:50.839 --> 00:21:52.519 to help take the top off the defense. I think 478 00:21:52.559 --> 00:21:54.720 Tyson's the purest rout runner in the class, and I 479 00:21:54.759 --> 00:21:57.359 think he's super nuanced and has the highest ceiling. If 480 00:21:57.359 --> 00:21:58.759 I could see one of those guys end up in 481 00:21:58.799 --> 00:22:01.559 Kansas City, it would be really, really good for everybody 482 00:22:01.599 --> 00:22:03.279 in that offense. And you also have to account for 483 00:22:03.319 --> 00:22:05.519 the fact that we're gonna be looking at a Chiefs 484 00:22:05.519 --> 00:22:07.319 offense now for the first time in a couple of 485 00:22:07.359 --> 00:22:10.240 seasons that doesn't have Matt Naggy's hands on it, so 486 00:22:10.599 --> 00:22:12.480 we're gonna get to see a little bit of difference 487 00:22:12.519 --> 00:22:14.839 in that offense too. Maybe that played into some of 488 00:22:14.839 --> 00:22:18.200 the rushing next year, but overall, it's a very interesting situation. 489 00:22:18.559 --> 00:22:21.400 I would probably bet on Patrick Mahomes at his current 490 00:22:21.440 --> 00:22:22.240 ADP right now. 491 00:22:22.400 --> 00:22:24.640 In a perfect world, if all three of the big 492 00:22:24.680 --> 00:22:27.839 three receivers are available at nine, and let's throw Kenyan 493 00:22:27.880 --> 00:22:29.799 Sadek in there as well, who do you think would 494 00:22:29.839 --> 00:22:32.599 fit best? Who would be the best choice for Kansas 495 00:22:32.599 --> 00:22:33.680 City specifically there? 496 00:22:34.240 --> 00:22:36.279 I think the best choice is gonna be Carnell Tate. 497 00:22:36.400 --> 00:22:38.480 His game does a little bit more than what some 498 00:22:38.519 --> 00:22:41.480 of these other guys. It could move everybody down a 499 00:22:41.519 --> 00:22:44.680 peg almost in the receiving order, because it allows Rashie 500 00:22:44.799 --> 00:22:46.960 Rice to play that big slot role kind of do 501 00:22:47.440 --> 00:22:49.240 everything over the middle of the field that he's been 502 00:22:49.240 --> 00:22:52.319 feeding into some of the Travis Kelsey stuff already. It 503 00:22:52.359 --> 00:22:54.839 does push Worthy out into just kind of a field 504 00:22:54.920 --> 00:22:57.680 stretcher role, and it lets Taate be the big boundary 505 00:22:57.680 --> 00:23:00.000 guy on the outside that is a savvy route runner 506 00:23:00.000 --> 00:23:01.960 and take the top off the defense, go up above 507 00:23:02.000 --> 00:23:04.559 the rim, play big. I just think he fits that 508 00:23:04.599 --> 00:23:06.839 offense a little bit better than some of the other guys, 509 00:23:07.079 --> 00:23:09.160 even though I don't think he has the highest ceiling 510 00:23:09.200 --> 00:23:10.119 of all the wide receivers. 511 00:23:10.519 --> 00:23:14.359 Mahomes is what like thirty one thirty somewhere around there, yep, yep. 512 00:23:14.720 --> 00:23:17.200 So for the second half of his career, he obviously 513 00:23:17.200 --> 00:23:20.279 won't have Travis Kelcey for the majority of it. Do 514 00:23:20.519 --> 00:23:28.440 Stours or Sadiq strike you as semi seamless replacements for 515 00:23:28.519 --> 00:23:31.720 Kelsey to kind of carry Mahomes over the next decade, 516 00:23:32.079 --> 00:23:34.519 or do you view both of those players as not 517 00:23:34.680 --> 00:23:37.680 the type of tight end that Eric beenemy Andy Reid 518 00:23:37.880 --> 00:23:39.160 would want for this offense. 519 00:23:39.920 --> 00:23:42.839 Yeah, I don't know if I see those guys as 520 00:23:42.880 --> 00:23:44.920 being the guys that are likely to be the heir 521 00:23:45.039 --> 00:23:48.240 to the throne of Travis Kelce. I wouldn't be surprised 522 00:23:48.240 --> 00:23:49.960 to see them go in maybe a little bit later 523 00:23:50.000 --> 00:23:51.960 in the NFL draft and look at a Max Claire 524 00:23:52.200 --> 00:23:54.160 or something like that to bring him in and kind 525 00:23:54.160 --> 00:23:55.680 of play a little bit of that role, because when 526 00:23:55.680 --> 00:23:57.960 you look at his Purdue tape, he did a lot 527 00:23:57.960 --> 00:24:00.920 of what Kelsey does too. You know, ay athlete but 528 00:24:00.960 --> 00:24:03.440 plays across the middle. Was a focal point of their 529 00:24:03.440 --> 00:24:05.400 receiving offense at Perdue when he was there as a 530 00:24:05.440 --> 00:24:08.559 junior or as a sophomore, and then I think he 531 00:24:08.559 --> 00:24:10.119 could kind of do some of the other stuff without 532 00:24:10.119 --> 00:24:11.759 the draft cost. Would allow you to get the wide 533 00:24:11.799 --> 00:24:13.480 receiver or even if you want to go in and 534 00:24:13.480 --> 00:24:15.359 do defense. You know, in the first pick in the draft, 535 00:24:15.440 --> 00:24:17.279 we've seen Ruben Bain and some of these other guys 536 00:24:17.279 --> 00:24:19.559 get mocked to them before. That would be crazy if 537 00:24:19.559 --> 00:24:21.519 he ends up there. So I think it gives you 538 00:24:21.599 --> 00:24:24.640 some more flexibility. I don't think Sadik or Stowers are 539 00:24:24.640 --> 00:24:26.079 going to be one of the guys that ends up 540 00:24:26.079 --> 00:24:27.119 filling in for Travis Kelce. 541 00:24:27.599 --> 00:24:30.079 Does it say, actually, you know what I want to 542 00:24:30.119 --> 00:24:33.200 say the Sadik Stowers conversation for later on, because there's 543 00:24:33.240 --> 00:24:35.519 some important aspects I want to, like macro stuff I 544 00:24:35.559 --> 00:24:37.720 want to talk with you about that. Let's go to 545 00:24:37.759 --> 00:24:41.960 Baltimore instead. Jeff Zirabik, I don't know if I'm pronouncing 546 00:24:42.000 --> 00:24:43.799 it right, and I've been saying it for years, and 547 00:24:43.839 --> 00:24:46.359 I still don't know if I'm pronouncing it right. The 548 00:24:46.480 --> 00:24:49.319 Ravens reporter for The Athletic said that the Ravens want 549 00:24:49.359 --> 00:24:51.759 to make sure that they get to a deal sooner 550 00:24:51.880 --> 00:24:56.039 rather than later in extending Zay Flowers. As of this recording, 551 00:24:56.359 --> 00:25:01.519 flowers fifth year option has not been picked up by 552 00:25:01.559 --> 00:25:04.839 Baltimore yet, but we don't care about that. If they're 553 00:25:04.839 --> 00:25:07.440 extending them, then it doesn't really make much of a difference. 554 00:25:08.319 --> 00:25:10.759 I don't know how you feel about Zay Flowers in general, 555 00:25:10.839 --> 00:25:13.480 the type of player he is, his fit in the 556 00:25:13.480 --> 00:25:16.799 Baltimore offense, and quite frankly, Lamar Jackson, who I think 557 00:25:16.880 --> 00:25:21.720 is maybe gonna semi reinvent himself coming off a down year, 558 00:25:22.279 --> 00:25:24.839 a year that he dealt with injuries, and now he's 559 00:25:24.960 --> 00:25:28.119 kind of in the second half of his career right 560 00:25:28.119 --> 00:25:31.200 where he just can't run away from defenses the way 561 00:25:31.240 --> 00:25:34.119 he used to. Still super fast, still can get it done, 562 00:25:34.319 --> 00:25:37.400 but not the way that he used to. Andrew Jay 563 00:25:37.440 --> 00:25:40.920 Flowers as far as a dynasty asset goes, is he 564 00:25:41.000 --> 00:25:43.400 a top fifteen guy? Is he a top twenty guy 565 00:25:43.440 --> 00:25:43.680 for you? 566 00:25:44.920 --> 00:25:45.119 Yeah? 567 00:25:45.160 --> 00:25:47.839 I mean he's definitely a top twenty ish guy for me. 568 00:25:47.920 --> 00:25:49.680 And early on in the offseason when we were just 569 00:25:49.680 --> 00:25:51.599 coming out of the NFL season in twenty twenty five, 570 00:25:51.640 --> 00:25:53.559 I talked about him as a bye because you looked 571 00:25:53.599 --> 00:25:55.759 at some of these consensus ranking websites, whether that be 572 00:25:55.839 --> 00:25:58.759 Fantasy CALK or KTC or whatever you wanted to look at, 573 00:25:58.920 --> 00:26:01.720 he was really far down despite finishing as a top 574 00:26:01.759 --> 00:26:05.519 twelve wide receiver in Fantasy football, you know, just a 575 00:26:05.519 --> 00:26:07.960 couple weeks prior. So He's a player that I think 576 00:26:08.000 --> 00:26:10.759 definitely benefited last year from some of the lack of 577 00:26:10.839 --> 00:26:14.640 competition for targets around him. Baltimore could definitely do with 578 00:26:14.640 --> 00:26:17.440 getting another guy in that offense. You kind of saw 579 00:26:17.559 --> 00:26:21.319 guys like DeAndre Hopkins regrets for Sean Bateman hasn't necessarily 580 00:26:21.359 --> 00:26:25.519 given you really anything I think to call home about 581 00:26:25.559 --> 00:26:28.119 in that offense. He's a fine player, but they need 582 00:26:28.160 --> 00:26:31.720 another guy to me, Zay is one of the elite 583 00:26:32.079 --> 00:26:34.119 or should end up being one of the elite wide 584 00:26:34.160 --> 00:26:37.000 receiver twos in football. But for right now, he's a 585 00:26:37.039 --> 00:26:39.720 PPR kind of guy because he is really the only 586 00:26:39.759 --> 00:26:42.559 competition or the only receiving target that they have there 587 00:26:42.559 --> 00:26:43.240 in Baltimore. 588 00:26:43.480 --> 00:26:45.160 Do you view Baltimore as. 589 00:26:47.119 --> 00:26:48.880 Do you think that they view wide receiver as a 590 00:26:48.960 --> 00:26:50.799 priority for Day one or Day two of the draft. 591 00:26:51.680 --> 00:26:55.960 I'm kind of debating that because I originally was like 592 00:26:56.799 --> 00:26:59.480 mocking them some wide receivers if we saw Jordan Tyson 593 00:26:59.519 --> 00:27:01.519 fall because some of the injury concerns, I kind of 594 00:27:01.559 --> 00:27:04.839 was mocking him there. And before the Raiders trade they 595 00:27:04.880 --> 00:27:07.119 ended up not being a Raiders trade and now they 596 00:27:07.200 --> 00:27:09.480 kind of have that first round pick back. But it's 597 00:27:09.519 --> 00:27:12.240 tough to tell you. I think right now they need 598 00:27:12.279 --> 00:27:16.599 a guy more as like a sacrificial X, somebody who 599 00:27:16.599 --> 00:27:18.680 can play on the outside, play on the boundary. Let 600 00:27:18.759 --> 00:27:20.279 Zay kind of play underneath and do some of the 601 00:27:20.279 --> 00:27:23.480 gadgety stuff on screens, and some of these Jets sweeps 602 00:27:23.880 --> 00:27:26.359 still have Mark Andrews to play across the middle. A 603 00:27:26.400 --> 00:27:28.759 good fit in that offense I think would be Denzel 604 00:27:28.839 --> 00:27:33.240 Boston if somehow he's available in that second round right 605 00:27:33.240 --> 00:27:34.880 there where they're picking in like the teens. 606 00:27:36.079 --> 00:27:39.119 I I want to know if you have any insight 607 00:27:39.319 --> 00:27:41.680 into what we should be doing as far as the 608 00:27:41.680 --> 00:27:45.440 tight ends go for Baltimore. They let Isaiah likely go 609 00:27:45.839 --> 00:27:48.680 sign with the Giants, and I'm still scratching my head 610 00:27:48.680 --> 00:27:51.720 on the Mark Andrews extension. We often say follow the money, 611 00:27:52.599 --> 00:27:56.200 and I'm struggling to do it here with Andrews, you know, 612 00:27:56.279 --> 00:27:58.799 with him with I mean, is there something should we 613 00:27:58.880 --> 00:28:03.079 glean something from that? For fantasy that the Ravens believe 614 00:28:03.079 --> 00:28:05.240 in Andrews because they not only extended them, they let 615 00:28:05.279 --> 00:28:07.440 his biggest competition at the position. 616 00:28:07.119 --> 00:28:08.720 For targets go to New York. 617 00:28:09.400 --> 00:28:10.920 And I don't know if there's something there or not, 618 00:28:11.039 --> 00:28:12.480 or maybe I'm reading too much into it. 619 00:28:13.200 --> 00:28:15.839 Yeah, I've seen jokes on the internet that that was 620 00:28:15.839 --> 00:28:18.279 a Harbaugh thing where he's like, yeah, you guys should resign. 621 00:28:18.400 --> 00:28:21.279 Andrews so likely hits the market and then follows him 622 00:28:21.279 --> 00:28:26.200 somewhere else. But that likely probably didn't very didn't happen. 623 00:28:26.240 --> 00:28:28.759 But I do think with the way that we're looking 624 00:28:28.759 --> 00:28:31.079 at Baltimore today, Like I said, I think this is 625 00:28:31.119 --> 00:28:33.839 a team that should add some receiving help in the draft. 626 00:28:33.880 --> 00:28:36.279 Whether that be Day two or in the first round. 627 00:28:36.400 --> 00:28:38.400 You know, that's up for debate, but I think that 628 00:28:38.400 --> 00:28:41.440 they should add somebody at least on Day two. The 629 00:28:41.440 --> 00:28:44.319 way it's set up today, Mark Andrews is going to 630 00:28:44.319 --> 00:28:46.640 be a part of this offense. It's just it's not 631 00:28:47.279 --> 00:28:48.680 you know, I think what a lot of people want 632 00:28:48.680 --> 00:28:50.359 to happen, because it hasn't been good for the last 633 00:28:50.400 --> 00:28:53.519 couple of years for him. But right now, I look 634 00:28:53.519 --> 00:28:55.839 at that offense and who else is going to be 635 00:28:55.920 --> 00:28:59.759 the red zone target? It's really nobody. Zay's not the 636 00:28:59.759 --> 00:29:01.680 red zone target. They don't have another guy on the 637 00:29:01.720 --> 00:29:03.440 offense right now that's a red zone target. 638 00:29:03.519 --> 00:29:04.640 It's Mark Andrews. Man. 639 00:29:04.680 --> 00:29:07.519 So I would write him down for seven, eight nine 640 00:29:07.559 --> 00:29:10.240 touchdowns probably this year if he and Lamar stay healthy. 641 00:29:10.519 --> 00:29:12.799 Yeah, And that's and that's key obviously. You want to 642 00:29:12.839 --> 00:29:15.720 make sure that that those guys are are are out 643 00:29:15.759 --> 00:29:18.119 there and not hobbling around the way that they were 644 00:29:18.200 --> 00:29:21.599 last year when they played too By the way to 645 00:29:21.680 --> 00:29:24.279 a tongue of Iloa, let's let's go to this. This 646 00:29:24.359 --> 00:29:28.480 is a story on the Atlanta Falcons team website that 647 00:29:29.079 --> 00:29:33.759 Tongue of Iloa was is open to mentoring Michael Pennix junior. 648 00:29:35.519 --> 00:29:37.759 It's weird because tongue of Iloa is, like, I think, 649 00:29:37.880 --> 00:29:40.440 less than two years older than Penix, and yet he'd 650 00:29:40.440 --> 00:29:43.000 be mentoring him, which is weird. 651 00:29:43.039 --> 00:29:45.440 But Tua did lead the NFL in. 652 00:29:45.480 --> 00:29:48.079 Passing yardage not too long ago, so he does have 653 00:29:48.119 --> 00:29:51.440 some experience, had some chops. I this is more of 654 00:29:51.440 --> 00:29:55.839 a question of number one, what do you think happens 655 00:29:55.880 --> 00:29:58.519 at quarterback between Tongue of Ilow and I know Penix 656 00:29:58.599 --> 00:30:00.400 is recovering from an injury, who even. 657 00:30:00.279 --> 00:30:01.039 Gets that job? 658 00:30:01.279 --> 00:30:04.839 What's the likelihood Andrew that they keep that job? And 659 00:30:04.920 --> 00:30:09.799 then how big is the impact on Kyle Pitts, on 660 00:30:09.920 --> 00:30:12.480 Drake London, you know the pass catchers on this team, 661 00:30:12.519 --> 00:30:15.640 how big is the impact on them for who the 662 00:30:15.720 --> 00:30:17.720 quarterback ends up being on this squad? 663 00:30:18.720 --> 00:30:21.720 Yeah, I honestly I think this is Tua's job to lose. 664 00:30:22.359 --> 00:30:25.400 In Atlanta, I think a new coaching staff in the 665 00:30:25.400 --> 00:30:28.400 building clearly immediately felt like they needed to go address 666 00:30:28.440 --> 00:30:31.720 the quarterback position. They let Kirk Cousins walk, even though 667 00:30:31.759 --> 00:30:34.359 he had some history with Kevin Stefanski, and then you 668 00:30:34.440 --> 00:30:36.519 go out and target a guy on the market into 669 00:30:36.519 --> 00:30:38.480 a Tunguevai Lowe, who is probably one of the better 670 00:30:38.559 --> 00:30:41.319 names on the free agent market as far as quarterback goes. 671 00:30:42.440 --> 00:30:46.799 Part of me feels like Tua is being faded a 672 00:30:46.839 --> 00:30:50.359 little bit too hard after some dysfunctional years in Miami. 673 00:30:50.799 --> 00:30:52.960 I do like the supporting cast that he's gonna have 674 00:30:53.000 --> 00:30:55.960 here with Pitts in London and Bijon. I think he's 675 00:30:55.960 --> 00:30:59.240 a sneaky buy in dynasty leagues. I talked about him 676 00:30:59.440 --> 00:31:03.319 even before he was released from the Miami Dolphins and said, 677 00:31:03.880 --> 00:31:06.039 go buy him because a team's gonna invest in him. 678 00:31:06.119 --> 00:31:08.400 There's just too many of these free agent, you know, 679 00:31:08.519 --> 00:31:10.480 quarterbacks over the last couple of years that have been 680 00:31:10.519 --> 00:31:13.319 seen as reclamation projects. And somebody's gonna look at to 681 00:31:13.359 --> 00:31:14.640 a tongue of by low and say, you know what, 682 00:31:15.039 --> 00:31:18.079 we can make it work. And a lot of people said, Andrew, 683 00:31:18.079 --> 00:31:20.640 that's horrible. I'm never buying too, it's gross. I don't 684 00:31:20.640 --> 00:31:23.119 want him on my rosters. I said, suit yourself because 685 00:31:23.119 --> 00:31:25.680 he's basically free and you know, now we're looking at 686 00:31:25.680 --> 00:31:28.039 present day, I think he's gonna end up being the starter, 687 00:31:28.759 --> 00:31:33.119 it probably is just as good as it was with Pennix, 688 00:31:33.400 --> 00:31:35.519 if not maybe a slight upgrade for all of the 689 00:31:35.519 --> 00:31:38.599 receiving options. So with two under center, I have no 690 00:31:38.799 --> 00:31:42.079 issues with Kyle pitts ADP. I have zero issues with 691 00:31:42.160 --> 00:31:44.559 Drake London. I have zero issues with Beijon. I think 692 00:31:44.559 --> 00:31:46.000 it's gonna be back to business and I think a 693 00:31:46.000 --> 00:31:48.480 lot of this actually too. I just think they have 694 00:31:48.480 --> 00:31:50.599 an improved play caller in the building and Kevin Stefanski 695 00:31:50.599 --> 00:31:51.000 as well. 696 00:31:52.440 --> 00:31:55.119 This is a spinoff dynasty, spinoff question on something that 697 00:31:55.160 --> 00:31:57.920 you made me think of buying low on tongue of 698 00:31:57.960 --> 00:32:00.799 Bai Loo when you know he as a free agent, 699 00:32:01.000 --> 00:32:02.559 or when we all knew he was going to be 700 00:32:02.599 --> 00:32:06.440 a free agent. I think fantasy players have this, and 701 00:32:06.480 --> 00:32:10.279 I'm guilty of this too. We have this sort of 702 00:32:10.640 --> 00:32:15.160 urge to not buy in dynasty, not draft in best 703 00:32:15.160 --> 00:32:18.200 Ball or redraft or whatever players that are not on 704 00:32:18.240 --> 00:32:20.640 a team. Right It's difficult. It's just hard for us 705 00:32:20.680 --> 00:32:23.480 to make that connection. Why would I draft this guy? 706 00:32:23.519 --> 00:32:25.279 Why would I trade for this guy when he's a 707 00:32:25.279 --> 00:32:26.880 free agent or he's about to be a free agent. 708 00:32:27.200 --> 00:32:29.920 I think about these wide receivers, these veteran wide receivers 709 00:32:29.960 --> 00:32:32.119 that are still in the market that they're gonna get signed, 710 00:32:32.480 --> 00:32:36.039 Stefan Diggs, Deebo, Samuel Juwan Jennings, who I think we'll 711 00:32:36.039 --> 00:32:36.799 get into later on. 712 00:32:37.599 --> 00:32:38.799 You know, Keenan Allen. 713 00:32:38.799 --> 00:32:40.279 I don't know if I said Keenan Allen. He's another 714 00:32:40.279 --> 00:32:45.680 one these players. Do you find yourself making trade offers 715 00:32:45.759 --> 00:32:50.160 right now, maybe borderline insulting trade offers to acquire these 716 00:32:50.200 --> 00:32:52.160 receivers On the chief obviously it's going to take more 717 00:32:52.200 --> 00:32:54.400 to acquire Digs than it would to take the acquire 718 00:32:54.480 --> 00:32:58.599 Keenan Allen. But is there something to that strategy as 719 00:32:58.599 --> 00:33:01.440 well to be by some of these free agent receivers 720 00:33:01.519 --> 00:33:04.960 right now whose value inevitably will go up once they 721 00:33:05.000 --> 00:33:05.839 signed with the team. 722 00:33:06.000 --> 00:33:08.480 How much? I don't know. Maybe it's negligible. But what 723 00:33:08.880 --> 00:33:09.759 do you make of that. 724 00:33:09.640 --> 00:33:13.160 Strategy as the first and second waves of NFL free 725 00:33:13.160 --> 00:33:16.160 agency are behind us and we could still potentially find 726 00:33:16.160 --> 00:33:17.960 a way to exploit what's going on right now? 727 00:33:18.680 --> 00:33:20.400 Yeah, I definitely think it's a strategy and I think 728 00:33:20.400 --> 00:33:22.920 people should do it, especially you bring up best Ball. 729 00:33:23.240 --> 00:33:26.279 You know these guys that we know when Week one 730 00:33:26.319 --> 00:33:28.240 comes around, they're going to be on an NFL roster 731 00:33:28.359 --> 00:33:31.079 somewhere we don't know where. But in Best Ball drafts 732 00:33:31.160 --> 00:33:34.240 right now, you're getting guys cheap, double digit rounds. If 733 00:33:34.279 --> 00:33:37.960 you're looking for ways to win in those types of formats, 734 00:33:38.119 --> 00:33:40.880 you need to have guys that you draft today who's 735 00:33:40.960 --> 00:33:44.839 ADP week one or right before week one are rounds 736 00:33:44.960 --> 00:33:47.279 higher because you were able to kind of predict the 737 00:33:47.319 --> 00:33:49.599 future or take a shot and gamble on the future 738 00:33:49.640 --> 00:33:51.680 and saw some of those gains already in the free 739 00:33:51.680 --> 00:33:55.279 agent or the preseason market. So yes, that's definitely a 740 00:33:55.319 --> 00:33:57.880 strategy that you should be using in Best Ball. You 741 00:33:57.920 --> 00:33:59.920 can use it in Dynasty too. You know, I'd like 742 00:34:00.079 --> 00:34:02.519 to I said it with two of because for me 743 00:34:02.599 --> 00:34:04.599 it was so easy to see kind of that the 744 00:34:04.680 --> 00:34:07.720 quarterback position is just one that it's really hard for 745 00:34:07.839 --> 00:34:09.519 guys not to. 746 00:34:11.719 --> 00:34:12.400 Get picked up. 747 00:34:12.400 --> 00:34:15.440 When you're the number first round pick just a few 748 00:34:15.519 --> 00:34:17.559 years ago and guys are gonna want to take a 749 00:34:17.559 --> 00:34:19.360 shot on you. I mean, I just I pointed back 750 00:34:19.400 --> 00:34:23.480 to previous Daniel Jones, Sam Darnold's all of these other 751 00:34:23.480 --> 00:34:25.800 guys that it didn't work out, and even guys like 752 00:34:25.920 --> 00:34:27.719 Justin Fields. We just talked about him he's on his 753 00:34:27.800 --> 00:34:30.000 what fourth or fifth team that somebody's giving him a 754 00:34:30.039 --> 00:34:33.599 shot somewhere like these guys just get chances man. So yes, 755 00:34:33.639 --> 00:34:35.679 I think the wide receivers in a best ball for sure, 756 00:34:35.760 --> 00:34:37.880 it's a little bit harder to project those guys because 757 00:34:37.920 --> 00:34:40.679 their roles and their production is a little bit more 758 00:34:40.679 --> 00:34:43.960 dependent on other guys. Whereas the quarterback, it's mainly just 759 00:34:44.039 --> 00:34:45.760 are you the starter or are you not the starter? 760 00:34:46.199 --> 00:34:48.480 But yeah, I definitely think those guys are definitely worth 761 00:34:48.480 --> 00:34:49.960 taking a shot on right now in Best. 762 00:34:49.719 --> 00:34:54.159 Balls, Denver Broncos have been in the news specifically, I 763 00:34:54.239 --> 00:34:56.920 want to talk about the report from Nick Cosmeider and 764 00:34:56.960 --> 00:35:00.760 The Athletic from two days ago that he said the 765 00:35:00.760 --> 00:35:03.840 Broncos are not in any kind of rush to thin 766 00:35:03.960 --> 00:35:07.519 out how deep their receiver room they're They're not in 767 00:35:07.519 --> 00:35:09.679 any kind of rush to kind of trade off assets 768 00:35:10.639 --> 00:35:14.320 to to pair that down. Now, this comes off the 769 00:35:14.320 --> 00:35:17.440 the Jail and Wattle trade, where the Broncos receiving corps 770 00:35:17.519 --> 00:35:20.280 looks pretty awesome with Sutton and Wattle at the top. 771 00:35:21.000 --> 00:35:22.159 I'm a Pat Bryant guy. 772 00:35:22.320 --> 00:35:24.079 I know there's plenty of people out there that are 773 00:35:24.079 --> 00:35:27.400 Troy Franklin guys, I'm kind of done with Marvin Mims, 774 00:35:27.400 --> 00:35:30.239 but I know there's still some Mims truthers out there 775 00:35:30.239 --> 00:35:33.119 that that say, no, not so fast, my friend. Your 776 00:35:33.159 --> 00:35:36.280 thoughts on on this receiver room as far as fantasy 777 00:35:36.280 --> 00:35:38.920 football goes to me, I think it's Sutton and I 778 00:35:38.920 --> 00:35:43.800 think it's Wattle obviously, But then after that, I still 779 00:35:43.840 --> 00:35:48.519 think there is more value in in either acquiring Pat 780 00:35:48.519 --> 00:35:52.360 Bryant and Dynasty or drafting him in Best Ball late. 781 00:35:52.440 --> 00:35:55.639 I do like him better than than Troy Franklin, but 782 00:35:55.679 --> 00:35:58.760 I'd love to get your thoughts on how the how 783 00:35:58.840 --> 00:36:01.639 you are viewing the Broncos receiving room in a fantasy 784 00:36:01.679 --> 00:36:05.360 football lens now that Jalen Wattle is a part of it. 785 00:36:06.119 --> 00:36:08.639 Yeah, I love the fit for Jalen Wattle. 786 00:36:08.719 --> 00:36:12.559 I think he has top twelve, top fifteen ish upside 787 00:36:12.880 --> 00:36:15.280 in twenty twenty six being paired with bow Knicks here 788 00:36:15.280 --> 00:36:18.000 and kind of being the Sean Payton joker. You know, 789 00:36:18.039 --> 00:36:20.519 for many years we've talked about who's gonna be Sean 790 00:36:20.559 --> 00:36:24.199 Payton's joker, and we pinned guys like Evan Engram and whatnot. 791 00:36:24.719 --> 00:36:28.000 Jalen Wattle's gonna fit this scheme very very well, and 792 00:36:28.039 --> 00:36:29.320 I like the play calling. 793 00:36:29.599 --> 00:36:30.800 Going over to Davis Webb. 794 00:36:30.840 --> 00:36:32.880 He's talked about wanting to open this up and kind 795 00:36:32.880 --> 00:36:35.039 of tag downfield a little bit more, which I think 796 00:36:35.079 --> 00:36:37.840 bo Nicks is pretty good at. So I like Jalen 797 00:36:37.880 --> 00:36:40.599 Wattle a lot here, I like Courtland Sutton. It does 798 00:36:40.679 --> 00:36:42.960 come down to those guys, and I historically have been 799 00:36:43.000 --> 00:36:45.039 a Troy Franklin guy. I thought that he was a 800 00:36:45.079 --> 00:36:48.039 little bit undervalued when obviously Waddle was not on the team. 801 00:36:48.440 --> 00:36:50.599 Kind of had a little bit of a breakout last year. 802 00:36:51.760 --> 00:36:53.639 But when I'm looking at it from a scheme standpoint 803 00:36:53.679 --> 00:36:57.559 right now, Jalen Wattle's play style comes in and steps 804 00:36:57.599 --> 00:36:59.400 on the toes of a guy like Troy Franklin. It 805 00:36:59.440 --> 00:37:01.440 comes in steps on the toes of a guy like 806 00:37:01.519 --> 00:37:04.679 Marvin Mims as well. I see Marvin Mims more as 807 00:37:04.719 --> 00:37:08.719 a special teamer, kind of field stretcher for them. Now, 808 00:37:08.840 --> 00:37:11.880 Troy Franklin kind of the guy that I think is 809 00:37:11.920 --> 00:37:14.039 the odd man out despite him being the guy that 810 00:37:14.079 --> 00:37:17.360 I've backed. I wouldn't be surprised if they do trade 811 00:37:17.440 --> 00:37:20.559 it is Troy, But honestly, I don't see there being 812 00:37:20.639 --> 00:37:22.519 much of a market for Troy, and I don't see 813 00:37:22.559 --> 00:37:25.440 Troy really wanting to go anywhere with you know, his 814 00:37:25.480 --> 00:37:27.679 college teammate being on the roster there in Denver. 815 00:37:27.880 --> 00:37:29.559 So it's it's tough. 816 00:37:29.679 --> 00:37:31.760 I do think Pat Bryant, depending on where his cost 817 00:37:31.840 --> 00:37:33.800 is at in your leagues, is worth looking at because 818 00:37:33.800 --> 00:37:35.840 he does kind of play a little bit differently than 819 00:37:35.840 --> 00:37:38.800 Troy and Marvin and could fit into it as that 820 00:37:38.840 --> 00:37:41.360 third wide receiver. But right now, that pecking order is 821 00:37:41.639 --> 00:37:44.800 Jalen Waddell for me, top twelve upside, Courtland Sulton wide 822 00:37:44.840 --> 00:37:47.960 receiver two with some touchdown upside, and then everybody. 823 00:37:47.639 --> 00:37:49.599 Else let me let me throw this at you. 824 00:37:49.639 --> 00:37:52.760 I brought this up kind of organically last night, and 825 00:37:52.960 --> 00:37:55.119 maybe it has legs, maybe it doesn't. I don't know 826 00:37:55.159 --> 00:37:58.280 anybody else who's talking about this. I'll bring up the 827 00:37:58.280 --> 00:38:01.480 whole Sean Payton thing about where he mentioned Michael Thomas 828 00:38:01.519 --> 00:38:04.440 when he was talking about Pat Bryant. I will bring 829 00:38:04.519 --> 00:38:07.000 up there's a couple of games towards the end of 830 00:38:07.079 --> 00:38:09.599 last season when we do often see these rookie receivers 831 00:38:09.679 --> 00:38:14.440 kind of come alive, where Bryant was getting targets and 832 00:38:15.000 --> 00:38:18.519 injuries kind of forced him out of the game. So 833 00:38:18.559 --> 00:38:22.280 I say all that to tell you that after this season, 834 00:38:22.639 --> 00:38:27.000 there is a potential out in Courtland Sutton's contract less 835 00:38:27.000 --> 00:38:29.880 than a sixteen million dollar dead cap hit, they could 836 00:38:29.880 --> 00:38:32.199 get out of the Sutton business. And then to me, 837 00:38:32.920 --> 00:38:35.639 it would be the Bryant and Wattle show. Like Bryant 838 00:38:35.679 --> 00:38:38.159 would be the natural replacement. And then maybe Franklin takes 839 00:38:38.199 --> 00:38:40.320 on a bigger role too, because you don't have this 840 00:38:40.360 --> 00:38:43.239 target hog in Sutton demanding all this attention. But that's 841 00:38:43.280 --> 00:38:46.119 why I think Bryant right now is a sneaky guy 842 00:38:46.559 --> 00:38:49.880 to buy in Dynasty, especially after the acquisition of Waddle. 843 00:38:50.199 --> 00:38:53.119 I mean there's probably quite frank we away have Dynasty 844 00:38:53.159 --> 00:38:55.840 Cutdown Day in the FFPC coming up on March thirty first. 845 00:38:55.960 --> 00:38:58.159 There's probably gonna be people that release Bryant because they 846 00:38:58.159 --> 00:39:00.000 could only keep sixteen players on their ross. 847 00:39:00.159 --> 00:39:01.679 Maybe you don't even have to give up a draft 848 00:39:01.719 --> 00:39:02.239 pick for him. 849 00:39:02.519 --> 00:39:04.760 You don't have to be the Dallas Cowboys and and 850 00:39:05.400 --> 00:39:07.199 give up a pick for a player that's about to 851 00:39:07.199 --> 00:39:10.320 be caught. And I think that's what makes Bryant so 852 00:39:10.519 --> 00:39:13.360 intriguing right now, because I think this is the time 853 00:39:13.400 --> 00:39:15.719 to get them, and if they do part ways with 854 00:39:15.760 --> 00:39:19.199 Sutton after next season. Yesterday's price is not today's price. 855 00:39:20.920 --> 00:39:24.039 And the big thing with Sutton too is I would 856 00:39:24.079 --> 00:39:26.800 see Sutton as a potential guy who'd be willing to 857 00:39:26.880 --> 00:39:30.119 take a pay cut to stay in Denver, assuming everything. 858 00:39:29.840 --> 00:39:31.880 Stays as good as it was last year. 859 00:39:32.480 --> 00:39:34.760 People need to remember, man, I've said this a few 860 00:39:34.760 --> 00:39:38.639 times when people are like, no, that, No, that didn't happen. Guys, 861 00:39:38.639 --> 00:39:40.960 they were a BONICKX injury away from a super Bowl appearance, 862 00:39:41.000 --> 00:39:42.719 and I think they would have gave Seattle a decent 863 00:39:42.800 --> 00:39:44.760 run for their money had they gone to that super Bowl. 864 00:39:44.880 --> 00:39:48.119 So it's a team that's ready to win right now. 865 00:39:48.320 --> 00:39:50.880 If Suton wants to stay, they want him to stay, 866 00:39:50.880 --> 00:39:52.480 but they need a little bit of cap, you know, 867 00:39:52.599 --> 00:39:55.360 room for him to make it happen. I would see 868 00:39:55.360 --> 00:39:57.199 Courtland Sunn as a guy who'd be willing to probably 869 00:39:57.239 --> 00:39:58.639 take a pay cut and stay in Denver. 870 00:39:59.639 --> 00:40:02.159 And contending team, a team that you know, who knows. 871 00:40:02.159 --> 00:40:03.599 Maybe they go to the super Bowl this year and 872 00:40:03.599 --> 00:40:05.440 they want to keep the band together, and Sutton wants 873 00:40:05.440 --> 00:40:08.639 to be on that band or on that that that bus, 874 00:40:08.679 --> 00:40:11.679 the band bust or whatever. It would make sense. The 875 00:40:12.039 --> 00:40:13.679 other thing I wanted to bring up with the Broncos, 876 00:40:13.760 --> 00:40:15.599 and I mentioned this on the High Stakes Fantasy Football 877 00:40:15.599 --> 00:40:16.239 Our last night. 878 00:40:16.440 --> 00:40:17.599 I haven't made up my mind on. 879 00:40:17.559 --> 00:40:20.639 How I feel about RJ. Harvey. They kind of overdrafted 880 00:40:20.679 --> 00:40:24.320 him last year, but then they they brought in JK. Dobbins, 881 00:40:24.320 --> 00:40:26.239 which I always thought they were going to bring in somebody. 882 00:40:26.280 --> 00:40:28.880 It was never gonna be Harvey's backfield last year, and 883 00:40:29.280 --> 00:40:32.239 I kind of thought the same thing this year. But 884 00:40:32.280 --> 00:40:35.079 then they're paying Dobbins like ten million dollars this year. 885 00:40:35.280 --> 00:40:36.679 It was a bigger. 886 00:40:36.360 --> 00:40:37.559 Contract than I expected. 887 00:40:37.920 --> 00:40:39.719 And then Nick cosmider I might have been the same 888 00:40:39.840 --> 00:40:42.760 article that he was talking about the Broncos wide receivers. 889 00:40:43.199 --> 00:40:45.599 He says that the coaching staff thinks that there's a 890 00:40:45.679 --> 00:40:49.639 year two jump coming for Harvey. So what the front 891 00:40:49.679 --> 00:40:52.159 office is doing with contracts with Dobbins and what the 892 00:40:52.159 --> 00:40:54.079 coaching staff is saying, I don't know if they're trying 893 00:40:54.079 --> 00:40:54.920 to rise up RJ. 894 00:40:55.199 --> 00:40:56.559 Rvey here or whatever it is. 895 00:40:56.960 --> 00:41:00.079 How do you feel about Harvey as a dynast the 896 00:41:00.199 --> 00:41:04.119 asset right now? Andrew seeing both what happened last year 897 00:41:04.119 --> 00:41:07.159 on the field and now hearing what's going on off 898 00:41:07.199 --> 00:41:09.199 the field as far as what the front office is 899 00:41:09.199 --> 00:41:10.639 doing and what the coaching staff is saying. 900 00:41:11.440 --> 00:41:14.280 Yeah, I mean, I think the short answer and I'll 901 00:41:14.280 --> 00:41:16.760 get into why is I do think he's a little 902 00:41:16.800 --> 00:41:19.039 bit undervalued in the market right now, and I think 903 00:41:19.039 --> 00:41:21.880 he's a little bit overheted in the market right now. 904 00:41:22.320 --> 00:41:23.280 To me, the JK. 905 00:41:23.480 --> 00:41:27.679 Dobbins signing was the best of the worst case scenarios 906 00:41:27.719 --> 00:41:30.960 that could have happened for RJ. Harvey, because when you 907 00:41:31.159 --> 00:41:34.800 have them being rumored for Etns and Kenneth Walkers and 908 00:41:34.840 --> 00:41:36.679 a lot of these other big names, because those names 909 00:41:36.719 --> 00:41:40.000 were being floated around in Denver, you start to think, man, 910 00:41:40.679 --> 00:41:42.400 is that is there smoke. 911 00:41:42.840 --> 00:41:44.840 Over there where RJ. 912 00:41:45.000 --> 00:41:47.679 Harvey was drafted highly, but they could really bring in 913 00:41:47.719 --> 00:41:50.639 a guy here who could really hurt his fantasy upside. 914 00:41:50.920 --> 00:41:53.599 And then the plan is JK. Dobbins, who he did 915 00:41:53.639 --> 00:41:56.480 share with last year. And then you have some of 916 00:41:56.519 --> 00:41:59.440 the injury woes for JK pretty much annually. At this point, 917 00:41:59.679 --> 00:42:01.800 it do feel like the best of the worst scenarios. 918 00:42:02.400 --> 00:42:06.039 Anybody before free agency who felt like RJ. Harvey was 919 00:42:06.079 --> 00:42:10.639 gonna be handed the full workload that never really was RJ. 920 00:42:10.800 --> 00:42:13.239 Harvey's whole profile. 921 00:42:13.679 --> 00:42:15.159 He seemed like a little bit more of a guy 922 00:42:15.199 --> 00:42:16.760 who's gonna be a little bit of a receiving back, 923 00:42:16.800 --> 00:42:19.280 a change of pace guy, a third down guy, and 924 00:42:19.320 --> 00:42:21.360 then you're gonna have somebody who's the early down grinder 925 00:42:21.559 --> 00:42:22.519 and a goal line guy. 926 00:42:22.960 --> 00:42:24.480 That's what JK. Dobbins is. 927 00:42:24.519 --> 00:42:27.840 So because of that, I think the market was high 928 00:42:28.360 --> 00:42:31.239 Dobbins signs, and now the market's so cold on him 929 00:42:31.239 --> 00:42:33.440 that I'm kind of interested again. I mean, I think 930 00:42:33.440 --> 00:42:35.360 of you know where we look at some of these 931 00:42:35.360 --> 00:42:38.039 other websites right now. I just pulled up KTC not 932 00:42:38.079 --> 00:42:40.880 too long ago the other day and Bachel Tuton had 933 00:42:40.880 --> 00:42:45.719 passed RJ. Harvey by a couple running back slots. Why 934 00:42:45.800 --> 00:42:49.039 is Bachel Twoton more confident? Why are we more confident 935 00:42:49.119 --> 00:42:51.000 in him as a starter than we are RJ. 936 00:42:51.079 --> 00:42:51.360 Harvey. 937 00:42:51.480 --> 00:42:51.639 RJ. 938 00:42:51.719 --> 00:42:54.119 Harvey has the better draft capital, He's in the better offense, 939 00:42:54.519 --> 00:42:58.079 he has probably the better offensive line there in Denver 940 00:42:58.119 --> 00:43:00.880 than what Jacksonville had, and he the pass catching up 941 00:43:00.960 --> 00:43:04.519 side where you could point right back to jackson Ville 942 00:43:04.519 --> 00:43:07.679 and say they paid Chris Rodriguez. It's not as sexy 943 00:43:07.679 --> 00:43:10.000 of a name as JK. Dobbins, but they paid him money, 944 00:43:10.039 --> 00:43:12.599 and he has history with Liam Cohen. So I don't 945 00:43:12.599 --> 00:43:14.880 know where we're feeling more confident in a guy like two, 946 00:43:14.920 --> 00:43:15.800 and he's. 947 00:43:15.599 --> 00:43:16.360 Probably a bye. 948 00:43:16.679 --> 00:43:19.960 If there's people out there willing to sell you R. J. 949 00:43:20.119 --> 00:43:23.760 Harvey for anything less than a late first round pick. 950 00:43:23.800 --> 00:43:25.719 If somebody's like, yeah, I'll take that to a one 951 00:43:25.760 --> 00:43:28.159 and reroll it, I'm all in, man. 952 00:43:28.679 --> 00:43:30.440 I'm getting Harvey instead. 953 00:43:30.159 --> 00:43:32.480 Right, absolutely, absolutely, yeah. 954 00:43:32.159 --> 00:43:35.280 Yeah, And I feel like, you know, I picked at 955 00:43:35.320 --> 00:43:38.599 the end of a lot of my rookie drafts last 956 00:43:38.639 --> 00:43:42.360 year because I'm awesome at dynasty fantasy football. I'm just kidding, 957 00:43:42.400 --> 00:43:44.840 but I did get Harvey in a few spots. But 958 00:43:44.880 --> 00:43:50.000 it's interesting you say that because if I I mean, man, 959 00:43:50.039 --> 00:43:52.440 I don't play dynasty this way, but like, it's interesting 960 00:43:52.480 --> 00:43:55.639 to me that people would be so willing to give 961 00:43:55.719 --> 00:43:58.599 up on Harvey and get sort of a similar draft 962 00:43:58.599 --> 00:44:02.719 pick this year in a much weaker running back class. Like, 963 00:44:02.920 --> 00:44:04.519 I don't know why you'd want to do that, but 964 00:44:04.800 --> 00:44:07.280 to each their own. And I'll say that just to 965 00:44:07.280 --> 00:44:09.480 put a bow on the conversation. Not that this affects 966 00:44:09.559 --> 00:44:13.480 us and that what we do with dynasty Fantasy football values, 967 00:44:13.719 --> 00:44:15.840 but remember there's a lot of reports out there that 968 00:44:15.840 --> 00:44:20.159 the Jaguars wanted to get RJ. Harvey in the third round, 969 00:44:20.760 --> 00:44:23.320 and then when the Broncos took up, then they pivoted 970 00:44:23.400 --> 00:44:26.079 and they drafted two and later. Yeah. 971 00:44:26.079 --> 00:44:28.920 Absolutely, And I think it's worth noting too, Like I'll 972 00:44:28.920 --> 00:44:31.239 put this into perspective as well for people, because right 973 00:44:31.280 --> 00:44:32.840 now a lot of people are trying to figure out 974 00:44:33.079 --> 00:44:35.119 do I trade my rookie pick for this player? Do 975 00:44:35.159 --> 00:44:36.760 I trade my player for this rookie pick? 976 00:44:37.079 --> 00:44:37.559 If RJ. 977 00:44:37.679 --> 00:44:40.440 Harvey today, knowing what we know based off you know, 978 00:44:40.519 --> 00:44:42.360 not seeing the draft capital or the landing spots for 979 00:44:42.360 --> 00:44:44.360 the running backs in this year's class, if I had 980 00:44:44.400 --> 00:44:47.599 to pick blindly the RB two whoever that is this year, 981 00:44:48.000 --> 00:44:49.880 or Harvey, I'm taking Harvey right now. 982 00:44:51.039 --> 00:44:52.199 As long as you bring this up. 983 00:44:52.320 --> 00:44:54.079 How active are you in. 984 00:44:55.639 --> 00:44:59.000 Trading twenty twenty six picks for twenty twenty seven picks 985 00:44:59.079 --> 00:45:01.360 right now? Is that something that you're focused on at all? 986 00:45:02.280 --> 00:45:04.800 I've been doing it. I've been doing it basically since 987 00:45:05.199 --> 00:45:07.719 the trade deadlines. In some of my leagues of last year, 988 00:45:07.760 --> 00:45:10.280 where it looked like I was kind of being a 989 00:45:10.320 --> 00:45:12.199 super strong contender, a top three or a top four 990 00:45:12.199 --> 00:45:13.800 team in my league. I was trying to flip those 991 00:45:13.800 --> 00:45:15.719 first just in the future and trying to get something 992 00:45:15.719 --> 00:45:19.280 extra on top. Right now, you cannot get extra on top. 993 00:45:19.440 --> 00:45:21.800 If anything, You're gonna have to give something on top 994 00:45:21.840 --> 00:45:23.800 of your twenty twenty six pick to get that twenty 995 00:45:23.800 --> 00:45:29.719 seven pick. But I'm all for it outside of probably 996 00:45:29.880 --> 00:45:32.320 the top five top six picks. If I'm in the 997 00:45:32.360 --> 00:45:34.840 top five or top six pick this year, I'm cool 998 00:45:34.880 --> 00:45:36.039 sitting there and picking. 999 00:45:36.079 --> 00:45:36.239 Man. 1000 00:45:36.440 --> 00:45:38.760 I like the players there. I think the players have talent. 1001 00:45:38.880 --> 00:45:41.360 I think that they have upside. Like I'm good with it. 1002 00:45:41.400 --> 00:45:42.840 I had somebody in one of my leagues ask me 1003 00:45:42.880 --> 00:45:44.719 if I wanted to trade the one oh five and 1004 00:45:44.840 --> 00:45:47.400 reroll it into next year. I'm good, man, I'll just 1005 00:45:47.400 --> 00:45:49.800 take my wide receiver there. I'll take whoever it is, 1006 00:45:49.840 --> 00:45:52.599 Fernando Mendoza if he falls in a super flex, I'll 1007 00:45:52.599 --> 00:45:53.840 take them and just roll with it. 1008 00:45:54.079 --> 00:45:58.000 So, and obviously this will probably change once these rookies 1009 00:45:58.039 --> 00:46:01.760 have homes, but the top six in rookie drafts for you, 1010 00:46:01.840 --> 00:46:03.800 Andrew Mott, as it stands right now that you're cool 1011 00:46:03.840 --> 00:46:07.679 with taking Love Mendoza. The three receivers in Sadik or 1012 00:46:07.760 --> 00:46:08.639 is it another receiver? 1013 00:46:09.679 --> 00:46:13.599 I have Sadiq in the tier with Casey conceptsi On. 1014 00:46:13.719 --> 00:46:16.519 I think Casey conceptsion should be up there. And you know, 1015 00:46:16.559 --> 00:46:17.960 I know he's gotten a lot of buzz on the 1016 00:46:17.960 --> 00:46:20.079 Internet the last couple of days because Matt Harmon dropped 1017 00:46:20.079 --> 00:46:22.800 his reception perception profile and it looked pretty clean for 1018 00:46:22.920 --> 00:46:24.719 case But go check the receipts. 1019 00:46:24.760 --> 00:46:24.960 Man. 1020 00:46:25.000 --> 00:46:27.400 We've been on KC for months now. Over there on 1021 00:46:27.480 --> 00:46:29.440 draft Nerds, we've been talking about Casey is the wide 1022 00:46:29.480 --> 00:46:32.119 receiver for in this class, and he's right there in 1023 00:46:32.119 --> 00:46:34.039 that Kenyan Sadik teer with me. I wouldn't be surprised 1024 00:46:34.079 --> 00:46:35.679 if he's a day one wide receiver prospect. 1025 00:46:36.519 --> 00:46:39.039 Do I have I'm just gonna look at the rundown here. 1026 00:46:39.599 --> 00:46:40.800 I do have conceptsi On. 1027 00:46:40.920 --> 00:46:43.159 Okay, we'll talk about him later because I have another 1028 00:46:43.239 --> 00:46:47.559 question I want to answer about him sticking with the 1029 00:46:47.760 --> 00:46:51.840 veterans right now. John Keem John Kim not sure, but 1030 00:46:52.400 --> 00:46:56.199 I am sure that he covers the commanders for ESPN. 1031 00:46:56.679 --> 00:46:58.840 He thinks the commanders are going to quote go in 1032 00:46:58.880 --> 00:47:02.599 a different direction than signing Juwan Jennings in free agency. 1033 00:47:03.119 --> 00:47:05.159 We'll get to Jennings in a second. I'm talking about 1034 00:47:05.159 --> 00:47:08.559 the Commanders with you. It sounds like this Ayuk trade 1035 00:47:08.639 --> 00:47:12.519 or this Auk signing from the Niners to the Commanders 1036 00:47:12.559 --> 00:47:16.239 to pair him up with his old collegiate quarterback and 1037 00:47:16.320 --> 00:47:19.079 Jane Daniels. It sounds like that's probably not going to happen. 1038 00:47:19.119 --> 00:47:21.039 At least the reports I've been reading, it doesn't sound 1039 00:47:21.079 --> 00:47:24.360 like that's coming to fruition. Juwan Jennings is still out there. 1040 00:47:24.599 --> 00:47:27.239 Commanders don't seem to be interested in them or in him. 1041 00:47:27.400 --> 00:47:31.199 I have heard nothing. Obviously, they're not they they're not 1042 00:47:31.239 --> 00:47:34.400 bringing back Samuel. I've heard nothing about Keenan Allen. I've 1043 00:47:34.400 --> 00:47:37.280 heard nothing about Stefan Diggs. I've heard nothing about this. 1044 00:47:37.800 --> 00:47:43.559 Does this mean that the Commanders are cool with utilizing 1045 00:47:43.960 --> 00:47:47.320 some serious draft capital Round one, round two on a 1046 00:47:47.360 --> 00:47:50.119 receiver this year that is going to play next to 1047 00:47:50.199 --> 00:47:53.599 McLaurin and eventually dare I say, become the number one 1048 00:47:53.639 --> 00:47:55.960 in Washington for Jayden Daniels in his prime? 1049 00:47:56.679 --> 00:47:59.800 It could be man and I think Jordan Tyson fits 1050 00:47:59.840 --> 00:48:02.320 there so well. And you can kind of make the 1051 00:48:02.360 --> 00:48:03.960 ASU connections too if. 1052 00:48:03.800 --> 00:48:04.960 You want to do the helmet thing. 1053 00:48:05.039 --> 00:48:07.880 But I think Jordan Tyson's play style could really be 1054 00:48:08.320 --> 00:48:11.360 a number one do it all all around wide receiver 1055 00:48:11.400 --> 00:48:13.119 for Jayden and Daniels. And like I said a little 1056 00:48:13.119 --> 00:48:15.639 bit earlier, I think he has the highest ceiling they 1057 00:48:15.679 --> 00:48:18.960 probably could. That's the landing spot though that I keep 1058 00:48:19.039 --> 00:48:22.599 writing down Jeremiah Love. He kind of feels like the 1059 00:48:22.639 --> 00:48:25.639 playmaker that they end up going for. The thing is, 1060 00:48:26.159 --> 00:48:30.039 I don't know if a team jumps Washington to get Jeremiah, 1061 00:48:30.079 --> 00:48:32.840 because I think we could see something similar to last 1062 00:48:32.920 --> 00:48:35.280 year where a team trades up tries to go get 1063 00:48:35.280 --> 00:48:38.760 a running back. We saw that happen. Correct me if 1064 00:48:38.760 --> 00:48:41.079 I'm wrong, if I'm misremembering, but I think the Raiders 1065 00:48:41.159 --> 00:48:43.599 jumps Jacksonville right to go get the running back. 1066 00:48:44.519 --> 00:48:46.840 I'm gonna look that up right now, because now I'm 1067 00:48:46.880 --> 00:48:47.480 not sure. 1068 00:48:47.760 --> 00:48:50.039 I might I might be misremembering, but I thought there 1069 00:48:50.119 --> 00:48:52.920 was a trade or maybe it was somebody jumped in 1070 00:48:52.960 --> 00:48:53.599 the second round. 1071 00:48:53.679 --> 00:48:55.679 I can't remember, but somebody jumped and got a running back. 1072 00:48:55.679 --> 00:48:57.119 But I wouldn't be surprised to see a team come 1073 00:48:57.199 --> 00:49:00.440 up and get Jeremiah because Jeremiah, to me, when you 1074 00:49:00.480 --> 00:49:04.840 look at every position, every player, everybody in this class 1075 00:49:04.920 --> 00:49:07.760 he's the number one prospect. He's the best player in 1076 00:49:07.800 --> 00:49:09.880 this entire draft class, and I wouldn't be surprised to 1077 00:49:09.880 --> 00:49:12.239 see a team go up and get him, especially because 1078 00:49:12.239 --> 00:49:17.519 you've seen a lot of these teams like Kansas City 1079 00:49:17.719 --> 00:49:20.440 and New Orleans who've went out and addressed the position 1080 00:49:20.440 --> 00:49:24.599 in free agency. Right That tells me they thought they 1081 00:49:24.639 --> 00:49:28.119 couldn't get Jeremiah. Yeah, there's something being said in these 1082 00:49:28.119 --> 00:49:31.800 inner circles that Jeremiah's going early and if you want him, 1083 00:49:31.800 --> 00:49:32.880 you got to go up and get him. 1084 00:49:33.599 --> 00:49:36.480 So, if I'm asking you right now, because I don't 1085 00:49:36.519 --> 00:49:39.679 think I have love on the rundown, does he go 1086 00:49:39.719 --> 00:49:43.039 to Tennessee? Is that where you're thinking he's ends up 1087 00:49:43.079 --> 00:49:46.599 going or is there a better Is there a choice 1088 00:49:46.599 --> 00:49:47.519 that you think is more likely? 1089 00:49:48.320 --> 00:49:50.800 No, I don't like the Tennessee fit for him. I 1090 00:49:50.800 --> 00:49:53.679 think Tennessee. I know I've said his name a couple 1091 00:49:53.719 --> 00:49:56.239 of times. If we're being dead honest. The best pick 1092 00:49:56.280 --> 00:49:58.239 that Tennessee can make, I think is Carnell Tape. If 1093 00:49:58.280 --> 00:50:00.639 Carnelli goes number four, you pair him with cam Ward. 1094 00:50:01.000 --> 00:50:02.800 I think he's the best fit for that offense. 1095 00:50:02.920 --> 00:50:03.840 He pairs the big. 1096 00:50:03.760 --> 00:50:05.719 Arm with cam Ward with the deep ball ability of 1097 00:50:05.760 --> 00:50:07.320 Carnell Tate, and it gives him a true number one 1098 00:50:07.360 --> 00:50:09.719 wide receiver. So if I had to say, this is 1099 00:50:09.760 --> 00:50:12.480 Andrew Mott's crystal ball and I'm looking into the future, 1100 00:50:12.880 --> 00:50:15.599 the Titans, they end up going wide receiver with Carnell. 1101 00:50:16.000 --> 00:50:18.719 The Giants, I think they end up taking something on defense. 1102 00:50:18.760 --> 00:50:20.840 We've heard some of the rumors of Scataboo and Tracy 1103 00:50:20.920 --> 00:50:23.599 being in jeopardy because they like Jeremiah Love. I think 1104 00:50:23.639 --> 00:50:27.519 they go defense, probably like a Sunny Styles or something 1105 00:50:27.559 --> 00:50:30.800 like that out of Ohio State. And that means Washington's 1106 00:50:30.840 --> 00:50:32.960 the first team that I'm really looking at. But I 1107 00:50:33.000 --> 00:50:37.800 don't think that Washington is. If they don't want Jeremiah Love, 1108 00:50:37.920 --> 00:50:39.360 I could see them being a seller. 1109 00:50:39.440 --> 00:50:41.559 I could also see, you. 1110 00:50:41.599 --> 00:50:43.559 Know, some of these other teams right behind them. If 1111 00:50:43.599 --> 00:50:46.400 they don't take it, the Saints become sellers or the 1112 00:50:46.480 --> 00:50:48.800 Chiefs become sellers and start moving back for a team 1113 00:50:48.840 --> 00:50:51.800 that wants to jump up. Could a team like Minnesota 1114 00:50:51.920 --> 00:50:54.039 who kind of needs a running back be willing to 1115 00:50:54.039 --> 00:50:56.199 go up and grab him if they feel like they 1116 00:50:56.239 --> 00:50:58.559 can make this thing work with Kyler Murray this year 1117 00:50:58.599 --> 00:50:59.719 with a roster that they. 1118 00:50:59.679 --> 00:51:01.519 Think maybe can compete in the NFC North. 1119 00:51:01.960 --> 00:51:04.639 How much of that is honesty and how much of 1120 00:51:04.639 --> 00:51:07.320 that is wish casting for you for your vibe. 1121 00:51:07.199 --> 00:51:11.440 Probably probably thirty seventy. I'd say thirty percent wishful, seventy 1122 00:51:11.480 --> 00:51:14.119 percent honesty. No, but uh, you could see a lot 1123 00:51:14.159 --> 00:51:16.320 of these teams, man, I don't think that there's going 1124 00:51:16.360 --> 00:51:18.519 to be a lack of teams interested in Jeremiah Love. 1125 00:51:19.400 --> 00:51:20.360 Yeah, I think. 1126 00:51:22.079 --> 00:51:25.119 Uh. And I heard, you know, Arizona was being mentioned 1127 00:51:25.400 --> 00:51:27.519 for a while that that he was going to go there, 1128 00:51:27.519 --> 00:51:30.679 and then Arizona obviously restructured Connor and then they bring 1129 00:51:30.679 --> 00:51:33.440 aboard Tyler Algier wouldn't make much sense there. And and 1130 00:51:33.480 --> 00:51:37.000 I'm also with you, like I could see the Titans 1131 00:51:37.079 --> 00:51:39.079 drafting him, But if I was the GM, that's not 1132 00:51:39.400 --> 00:51:41.239 That's not the direction I would want to go with 1133 00:51:41.280 --> 00:51:43.960 that pick at all, with so many other holes. And 1134 00:51:44.000 --> 00:51:46.480 then I still don't and I'll bring this up briefly 1135 00:51:46.519 --> 00:51:50.159 with you. I don't understand why we heard that the 1136 00:51:50.239 --> 00:51:54.440 Giants were looking at signing Kenneth Walker and and now 1137 00:51:54.480 --> 00:51:56.639 we hear that they still might want to be in 1138 00:51:56.679 --> 00:52:00.119 the Jeremiah Love business as well. What do we what 1139 00:52:00.559 --> 00:52:03.800 do we as Dynasty players now do with our camp 1140 00:52:03.880 --> 00:52:08.159 Scataboo and our Tyrone Tracy assets that I mean, do 1141 00:52:08.199 --> 00:52:10.280 we just believe that this is like smoke screen stuff 1142 00:52:10.360 --> 00:52:14.840 or is there legitimate reporting here being done that you believe, like, hey, 1143 00:52:15.159 --> 00:52:18.239 the Giants aren't satisfied with their backfield and Skataboo and 1144 00:52:18.280 --> 00:52:19.920 Tracy owners should be unnotice. 1145 00:52:20.519 --> 00:52:22.400 Yeah, I think you got to kind of look at 1146 00:52:22.400 --> 00:52:24.360 it and say, the team that fell in love with 1147 00:52:24.400 --> 00:52:27.800 Skataboo and drafted Skataboo isn't there anymore. The front office 1148 00:52:27.840 --> 00:52:30.440 isn't there, Like this is a new front office, new 1149 00:52:30.480 --> 00:52:32.400 coaching staff. They're going to find their guys. They're going 1150 00:52:32.440 --> 00:52:34.679 to like their guys. However, I look back at it 1151 00:52:34.760 --> 00:52:37.760 and I say, you know, when they came over, Harbaugh 1152 00:52:37.840 --> 00:52:40.199 came over, he talked about Skataboo being a piece of 1153 00:52:40.199 --> 00:52:42.280 that offense that he wanted to keep running through. 1154 00:52:42.440 --> 00:52:45.519 So I'm a little bit more confident in Scataboo. Tracy. 1155 00:52:45.679 --> 00:52:47.800 I think you'd be lucky to find a buyer right 1156 00:52:47.800 --> 00:52:51.440 now anyways, especially with some of the smoke going on. 1157 00:52:51.960 --> 00:52:55.440 But with Skataboo, I'm probably holding unless somebody in my 1158 00:52:55.599 --> 00:52:59.000 league believes this is all smoke, and then I'm willing 1159 00:52:59.039 --> 00:53:00.920 to negate some of that risk and get off of 1160 00:53:00.960 --> 00:53:04.199 it just to give you Scataboo. But he's kind of 1161 00:53:04.199 --> 00:53:06.239 a guy that I thought was a sell. Anyways, I 1162 00:53:06.800 --> 00:53:10.039 had a few Scataboo shares. I sold him immediately after 1163 00:53:10.079 --> 00:53:11.920 the injury, and I did take a little bit of 1164 00:53:11.960 --> 00:53:14.519 an injury discount, Like I got probably eighty cents on 1165 00:53:14.599 --> 00:53:16.840 the dollar for Scataboo. But at the time he was 1166 00:53:16.880 --> 00:53:19.920 being valued as like a first plus in Dynasty Leafs 1167 00:53:19.960 --> 00:53:21.800 because of the run he just came off of. 1168 00:53:22.679 --> 00:53:25.320 And maybe that's what it is the fact that there 1169 00:53:25.440 --> 00:53:28.719 is new decision makers in New York that you know, 1170 00:53:28.880 --> 00:53:33.679 view that running back room very differently than than what 1171 00:53:33.719 --> 00:53:39.000 the previous regime did. Stefan Diggs is a player that 1172 00:53:39.039 --> 00:53:41.960 I've mentioned a couple of times now. In this first segment, 1173 00:53:42.280 --> 00:53:45.079 Tom Pallisero on the NFL Network said that he may 1174 00:53:45.119 --> 00:53:50.039 have to wait to sign in free agency with the 1175 00:53:50.079 --> 00:53:54.440 compensatory pick formula still in play prior to the NFL Draft, 1176 00:53:54.480 --> 00:53:56.800 Maybe some of these receivers just get scooped up on 1177 00:53:57.239 --> 00:53:59.880 Monday or Tuesday after the draft is complete, which is 1178 00:54:00.320 --> 00:54:02.599 because that's when a lot of the undrafted free agents 1179 00:54:02.599 --> 00:54:05.800 are signing. We could see Stefan Diggs signing that as well. 1180 00:54:06.480 --> 00:54:09.360 We mentioned about, you know, trying to acquire these players 1181 00:54:09.360 --> 00:54:11.960 in dynasty drafting them late. What do you think is 1182 00:54:11.960 --> 00:54:14.039 the best landing spot for Diggs now that we know 1183 00:54:14.079 --> 00:54:16.400 it won't be New England and obviously you know with 1184 00:54:16.559 --> 00:54:19.119 Romeo Dobbs, no chance they bring him back. 1185 00:54:20.079 --> 00:54:20.840 Perfect world. 1186 00:54:20.920 --> 00:54:24.440 If you had Stefan Diggs on your dynasty team right now, Andrew, 1187 00:54:24.800 --> 00:54:26.400 where do you want him to go? 1188 00:54:28.519 --> 00:54:31.000 He's such a tough one to look at and say 1189 00:54:31.000 --> 00:54:35.679 that there's the right spot. However, we just talked about Washington. 1190 00:54:35.920 --> 00:54:39.519 If Washington does go Jeremiah, could they go with a 1191 00:54:39.679 --> 00:54:42.480 veteran next to Terry and go with Stefan Diggs as 1192 00:54:42.480 --> 00:54:45.480 the number two? That would be a decent spot. Could 1193 00:54:45.519 --> 00:54:47.440 you maybe see him end up being a guy that 1194 00:54:47.559 --> 00:54:50.519 does go play for a Giants as their number two 1195 00:54:50.679 --> 00:54:53.079 next to em elite neighbors if they don't want to 1196 00:54:53.119 --> 00:54:55.400 go wide receiver in the draft either. So there's a 1197 00:54:55.440 --> 00:54:58.079 couple of spots where I think you'd like to see 1198 00:54:58.159 --> 00:55:00.840 him pair with a younger quarterbacks who has a little 1199 00:55:00.840 --> 00:55:03.960 bit more zip on that football like Daniels in Dark 1200 00:55:04.039 --> 00:55:06.280 Do and probably somewhere where he can step in as 1201 00:55:06.280 --> 00:55:08.440 a number two more so a veteran guy that can 1202 00:55:08.440 --> 00:55:11.559 help teach a young wide receiver or just be a 1203 00:55:11.679 --> 00:55:12.519 role player. 1204 00:55:12.199 --> 00:55:12.840 In that offense. 1205 00:55:13.119 --> 00:55:14.679 But it's tough with him, man, because I think the 1206 00:55:14.760 --> 00:55:18.519 days of one hundred and twenty plus targets are gone 1207 00:55:18.760 --> 00:55:20.679 with him. I don't think we're really seeing that type 1208 00:55:20.679 --> 00:55:23.039 of stuff. And I do think that there's quite a 1209 00:55:23.039 --> 00:55:26.519 few teams that probably will be scared off of one, 1210 00:55:26.719 --> 00:55:30.039 you know, him coming off of the injury last year 1211 00:55:30.079 --> 00:55:32.559 and then having some of the off the field issues 1212 00:55:32.599 --> 00:55:34.360 that he had last year as well. There might be 1213 00:55:34.400 --> 00:55:36.719 a couple of teams that are a little bit uninterested 1214 00:55:36.719 --> 00:55:37.000 in that. 1215 00:55:37.360 --> 00:55:41.280 What about Miami with Malik Willis and then obviously the 1216 00:55:41.320 --> 00:55:44.679 Dolphins probably should be drafting at least one receiver on. 1217 00:55:45.039 --> 00:55:47.559 The day two. I mean they have seven picks in 1218 00:55:47.639 --> 00:55:51.599 the first two days of the draft this year. But 1219 00:55:51.639 --> 00:55:53.639 what about Digs in Miami? Because I could see him, 1220 00:55:53.760 --> 00:55:56.079 you know Pan, The question is would he really want 1221 00:55:56.119 --> 00:55:57.280 to go there? I mean, I know he'd want to 1222 00:55:57.320 --> 00:55:59.599 go to that party. That's probably his atmosphere, But I 1223 00:55:59.639 --> 00:56:01.719 don't know if he's gonna see a whole lot of 1224 00:56:01.719 --> 00:56:03.239 winning in Miami in twenty six. 1225 00:56:03.840 --> 00:56:05.480 Yeah, I mean I think that's the thing too, because 1226 00:56:05.519 --> 00:56:07.880 like you got to think of him, he's kind of 1227 00:56:07.920 --> 00:56:10.239 gotten close to this whole super Bowl thing a few 1228 00:56:10.280 --> 00:56:12.039 times now, and it feels like he's a guy who 1229 00:56:12.039 --> 00:56:13.559 really wants to get over that hump. 1230 00:56:14.159 --> 00:56:16.599 And how many teams can you really do this on? 1231 00:56:17.159 --> 00:56:19.199 I mean, I'm looking at a couple of the teams 1232 00:56:19.239 --> 00:56:23.119 that might need a receiver, like Cleveland, you're not interested 1233 00:56:23.159 --> 00:56:25.239 in probably going to play for the Browns. You say 1234 00:56:25.280 --> 00:56:27.719 Miami like they're not going to be super competitive next year. 1235 00:56:27.719 --> 00:56:29.159 Are you actually that interested? 1236 00:56:29.679 --> 00:56:29.800 Uh? 1237 00:56:30.280 --> 00:56:31.840 Is he a guy that's gonna end up going to 1238 00:56:32.840 --> 00:56:35.880 Like would he run it back in Houston? I don't know, 1239 00:56:36.079 --> 00:56:39.480 but like there's just like not a lot of landings. 1240 00:56:39.280 --> 00:56:41.000 Vegas, Andrew, what about Las Vegas? 1241 00:56:41.800 --> 00:56:45.559 That could be interesting if he believes him Indoza as 1242 00:56:45.840 --> 00:56:48.119 the rookie quarterback and wants to do the rookie quarterback 1243 00:56:48.199 --> 00:56:53.159 thing a sneaky one that I wouldn't be shocked to 1244 00:56:53.159 --> 00:56:55.119 see him like take a little bit of a lesser 1245 00:56:55.199 --> 00:56:59.119 role to maybe go play somewhere nice, Like, could he 1246 00:56:59.199 --> 00:57:02.159 end up going to play the wide receiver three in 1247 00:57:02.519 --> 00:57:04.119 Detroit for the Lions? 1248 00:57:04.199 --> 00:57:08.159 Oh yeah, I don't. I don't see it happening because 1249 00:57:08.199 --> 00:57:10.639 of the capitol they gave up for Tesla and I 1250 00:57:10.639 --> 00:57:13.400 think they really want to unleash him this year. But 1251 00:57:14.320 --> 00:57:16.599 you know what, what what would really be fun and 1252 00:57:16.960 --> 00:57:20.679 shout out and rip James Vanderbeek aka Jonathan mox and 1253 00:57:20.719 --> 00:57:23.719 from Varsity Blues. Detroit could run the oop to oop 1254 00:57:24.119 --> 00:57:28.079 where you have Williams and Saint Brown and Laporta and 1255 00:57:28.159 --> 00:57:31.320 Tesla and Gibbs in the backfield and then uh, well, 1256 00:57:31.320 --> 00:57:33.000 I guess you couldn't do that. You couldn't have Gibbs 1257 00:57:33.000 --> 00:57:35.679 and Digs out out there as well, But that would 1258 00:57:35.679 --> 00:57:37.920 be a caval and you know what their defense is, 1259 00:57:38.159 --> 00:57:40.639 especially their secondary is probably still not good enough. I mean, 1260 00:57:40.639 --> 00:57:42.679 we'll see what they do in the draft where Detroit 1261 00:57:42.800 --> 00:57:46.239 might be scoring thirty plus points against this Yeah? 1262 00:57:46.400 --> 00:57:48.119 Is he is he the Baltimore guy? 1263 00:57:48.920 --> 00:57:49.199 Yeah? 1264 00:57:49.280 --> 00:57:50.320 Oh that's a good one. 1265 00:57:50.639 --> 00:57:50.840 Yeah. 1266 00:57:50.920 --> 00:57:51.320 Yeah. 1267 00:57:51.360 --> 00:57:54.199 Could he be the Baltimore guy opposite Zay and then 1268 00:57:54.440 --> 00:57:55.719 be Lamar's number two? 1269 00:57:56.000 --> 00:57:57.760 Oh that's I like that quite a bit. 1270 00:57:57.920 --> 00:58:00.440 You know, the monkey wrench into that is and maybe 1271 00:58:00.480 --> 00:58:04.599 it doesn't really matter, but didn't they just pay Bateman 1272 00:58:04.679 --> 00:58:06.519 last year and. 1273 00:58:06.519 --> 00:58:09.360 So yeah, him, there's some plenty money in that deal 1274 00:58:09.440 --> 00:58:12.880 though to where like it's not gonna be owed unless 1275 00:58:12.920 --> 00:58:15.440 there's like past a trigger date or something like that, 1276 00:58:15.519 --> 00:58:16.840 Like you know how they put that in some of 1277 00:58:16.840 --> 00:58:19.119 the contracts, like you have to get to a certain 1278 00:58:19.159 --> 00:58:21.000 date for the money to trigger. So we'll see what 1279 00:58:21.039 --> 00:58:24.360 happens with Bateman. But I honestly, I'll tell you what, 1280 00:58:24.400 --> 00:58:25.920 I don't think the digs is going to command that 1281 00:58:25.920 --> 00:58:28.119 big of a market. I think he's playing close to 1282 00:58:28.199 --> 00:58:29.679 vet minimum these days. 1283 00:58:29.960 --> 00:58:32.440 Which I'm sure he doesn't like, but but it is 1284 00:58:32.480 --> 00:58:34.880 what it is. Father time comes for all us. Last 1285 00:58:34.880 --> 00:58:36.960 thing I want to bring up this hour, Colton Pounce 1286 00:58:37.199 --> 00:58:39.400 covers the Lions for the Athletic. Don't rule out the 1287 00:58:39.440 --> 00:58:42.000 Lions drafting and running back this offseason. This is after 1288 00:58:42.000 --> 00:58:44.039 they let Montgomery go to the Texans. But they did 1289 00:58:44.039 --> 00:58:45.159 sign Isaiah Pacheco. 1290 00:58:47.039 --> 00:58:48.280 This, I just this is. 1291 00:58:48.199 --> 00:58:51.400 More of a confirmation from you if they do draft 1292 00:58:51.480 --> 00:58:57.000 somebody even on Day two. This this, that and the 1293 00:58:57.280 --> 00:59:00.000 signing of Pacheco that does not have any kind of 1294 00:59:00.119 --> 00:59:02.320 significant impact on Jamiir Gibbs value. 1295 00:59:02.159 --> 00:59:04.079 Right, None, Nope. 1296 00:59:04.159 --> 00:59:06.639 I think that Jamiir Gibbs will still be in contention 1297 00:59:06.760 --> 00:59:09.280 for RB one overall, and I'm not too worried about 1298 00:59:09.280 --> 00:59:10.920 it even if it's day two. I think what that 1299 00:59:11.000 --> 00:59:13.079 does is if it's a day two running back, that 1300 00:59:13.159 --> 00:59:14.960 tells you a little bit more about how they feel 1301 00:59:14.960 --> 00:59:18.000 about what they might get from Pachecko, and it's more 1302 00:59:18.039 --> 00:59:20.679 of an open competition for the change of pace guy 1303 00:59:20.719 --> 00:59:24.039 behind Gibbs than it is actually just handing Pachecko that role. 1304 00:59:24.960 --> 00:59:27.519 I think we got through a lot here, Andrew and 1305 00:59:27.559 --> 00:59:29.519 I want to get into some fun stuff in the 1306 00:59:29.559 --> 00:59:33.360 second hour. We will get into some Dynasty rookie talk, 1307 00:59:33.599 --> 00:59:35.960 but we're gonna lead things off with a Dynasty action 1308 00:59:36.119 --> 00:59:40.000 plan for one, justin Jefferson now that Kyler Murray is aboard, 1309 00:59:40.280 --> 00:59:42.320 and I'm gonna weave my way into talking to you 1310 00:59:42.400 --> 00:59:45.880 about Kyler Murray too and his impact not only on Jefferson, 1311 00:59:45.920 --> 00:59:48.800 the rest of the Vikings offense. We will talk Kenneth Walker, 1312 00:59:49.119 --> 00:59:52.039 Luther Burden as well.

I can't say well adjusted for an 1339 01:02:46.440 --> 01:02:49.480 NFL fan because I'm in northeast Wisconsin, so I'm obviously 1340 01:02:49.559 --> 01:02:50.360 a Packers guy. 1341 01:02:50.760 --> 01:02:52.559 Andrew, you are in Minnesota, Vikings guy. 1342 01:02:52.679 --> 01:02:57.599 That's okay. I know plenty of well adjusted, smart people 1343 01:02:57.599 --> 01:03:01.159 who are Minnesota Vikings fans that I'm not going to 1344 01:03:01.199 --> 01:03:02.519 do the skull. I'm not going to give the skull 1345 01:03:02.559 --> 01:03:06.599 any kind of I tried. That's fine, but certainly I 1346 01:03:06.599 --> 01:03:09.079 want to I want to pick your brain tonight with 1347 01:03:09.079 --> 01:03:13.079 with the Vikings with with sort of a different offense 1348 01:03:13.119 --> 01:03:14.719 this year that they're going to have at least from 1349 01:03:14.760 --> 01:03:18.320 the onset with Kyler Murray under center as opposed to 1350 01:03:18.440 --> 01:03:21.760 JJ McCarthy. So we will kick things off for this 1351 01:03:21.880 --> 01:03:25.480 Dynasty Action Plan segment. What is the Dynasty Action plan 1352 01:03:25.639 --> 01:03:28.760 on a guy like Justin Jefferson. Quite frankly, I think 1353 01:03:28.800 --> 01:03:31.159 the biggest thing I need to ask you here, how 1354 01:03:31.239 --> 01:03:34.239 much has his value changed now that Murray should be 1355 01:03:34.239 --> 01:03:35.880 the starter over McCarthy. 1356 01:03:36.760 --> 01:03:38.119 Yeah, I mean, I think it should give people a 1357 01:03:38.119 --> 01:03:40.599 little bit more confidence. We've seen a guy like Kyler 1358 01:03:40.639 --> 01:03:43.119 Murray go out and produce top end wide receivers. I know, 1359 01:03:43.119 --> 01:03:44.559 you got to look back a little bit to the 1360 01:03:44.559 --> 01:03:48.239 DeAndre Hopkins days there in Arizona, but that's probably the 1361 01:03:48.320 --> 01:03:52.320 last level of talent wide receiver that is comparable to 1362 01:03:52.360 --> 01:03:54.239 a guy like Justin Jefferson. And I think most of 1363 01:03:54.320 --> 01:03:56.519 us would look at j Justter Jefferson, Justin Jefferson in 1364 01:03:56.519 --> 01:03:58.760 his prime today and say that we'd prefer him than 1365 01:03:58.760 --> 01:04:01.159 the DeAndre Hopkins there. But I do think he's a 1366 01:04:01.199 --> 01:04:04.079 player that's definitely seen his value increase. There was a 1367 01:04:04.079 --> 01:04:05.800 lot of people where I feel like there was some 1368 01:04:06.400 --> 01:04:09.039 panic cells with Justin Jefferson based off of the JJ 1369 01:04:09.119 --> 01:04:12.320 McCarthy's stuff. Seems like he's kind of settled in for 1370 01:04:12.440 --> 01:04:17.280 most people now around the dynasty wide receiver five six seven. 1371 01:04:17.960 --> 01:04:19.199 What is that going to mean for you from a 1372 01:04:19.199 --> 01:04:21.719 single season perspective, It's probably still going to be a 1373 01:04:21.719 --> 01:04:24.199 first round to an early second round turn pick for 1374 01:04:24.320 --> 01:04:27.960 you in most redraft single season leagues. But I think 1375 01:04:27.960 --> 01:04:30.199 he's a player that I'm feeling a little bit more 1376 01:04:30.239 --> 01:04:33.440 comfortable with today knowing that Kyler Murray's the quarterback one. 1377 01:04:33.639 --> 01:04:35.840 You know, I think everybody, myself included, wants to know 1378 01:04:35.880 --> 01:04:38.639 what the impact is on Justin Jefferson, Is the impact 1379 01:04:39.039 --> 01:04:41.039 on Jordan Addison or TJ. Hockinson. 1380 01:04:41.400 --> 01:04:43.840 Does that change at all with Murray under center as well? 1381 01:04:44.360 --> 01:04:45.679 I think everybody gets an uptick. 1382 01:04:45.719 --> 01:04:45.880 Man. 1383 01:04:46.320 --> 01:04:48.760 I think for me, it's going to be in the 1384 01:04:48.880 --> 01:04:53.199 order of Jefferson than Addison than Hawkinson. Hawkinson is somebody 1385 01:04:53.239 --> 01:04:57.079 that I think is more likely out of his prime 1386 01:04:57.159 --> 01:05:00.480 these days. We haven't really seen Hawkinson bounce back from 1387 01:05:00.559 --> 01:05:02.960 the injury that he suffered a couple of seasons ago 1388 01:05:03.039 --> 01:05:05.360 there in twenty twenty three when he had the acl MCL. 1389 01:05:05.679 --> 01:05:06.400 We haven't really. 1390 01:05:06.280 --> 01:05:09.440 Seen him bounce back. The usage has been there, it's 1391 01:05:09.559 --> 01:05:11.760 just it hasn't really panned out. And that's been you know, 1392 01:05:12.400 --> 01:05:15.519 not having the athleticism the way it was previously and 1393 01:05:15.960 --> 01:05:18.719 the bad quarterback play. But I still think Jordan Addison, 1394 01:05:18.760 --> 01:05:22.000 for what it's worth right now, probably undervalued too, especially 1395 01:05:22.000 --> 01:05:23.920 in best ball formats where you're gonna get those big 1396 01:05:23.920 --> 01:05:25.880 weeks from Jordan Addison where you can score one or 1397 01:05:25.880 --> 01:05:28.280 two touchdowns off of a couple of big plays. He's 1398 01:05:28.280 --> 01:05:30.320 probably been a little bit forgotten about right now. 1399 01:05:31.000 --> 01:05:33.400 Does do they have a contract decision coming up to 1400 01:05:33.400 --> 01:05:35.719 make about Addison, like with a fifth year option or anything. 1401 01:05:35.760 --> 01:05:38.119 They're gonna have a fifth year option decision to make 1402 01:05:38.199 --> 01:05:39.039 next summer. 1403 01:05:39.199 --> 01:05:41.320 Next summer? Okay, perfect, So that's what That's what we're 1404 01:05:41.320 --> 01:05:44.159 looking at there, all right. So that's the Vikings portion 1405 01:05:44.679 --> 01:05:47.199 of the program tonight. We know that you will be 1406 01:05:47.280 --> 01:05:50.400 rooting for Jeremiah Love to come by Minnesota and quite 1407 01:05:50.440 --> 01:05:53.599 Frank Wish, I mean, you think about it too. I 1408 01:05:53.679 --> 01:05:57.159 remember when Adrian Peterson got drafted by the Vikings. I'm like, 1409 01:05:57.440 --> 01:05:59.719 this is just effing great that now we've got to 1410 01:05:59.719 --> 01:06:01.920 put up with this guy in the division. And by 1411 01:06:01.920 --> 01:06:03.840 the way he panned out, obviously, we all know how 1412 01:06:03.840 --> 01:06:06.760 that story ended. Unbelievable Hall of Fame career for Peterson 1413 01:06:07.039 --> 01:06:09.239 in Minnesota. They could do it again with Jeremiah Love. 1414 01:06:09.320 --> 01:06:12.519 We'll see, Okay, Devon a Chant, let's read between the 1415 01:06:12.559 --> 01:06:15.719 lines here with Jeff Hafley, the defensive coordinator for the 1416 01:06:15.719 --> 01:06:19.480 Packers John Eric Sullivan the front office. I can't remember 1417 01:06:19.480 --> 01:06:21.320 what his official title was with the Packers, but now 1418 01:06:21.320 --> 01:06:23.199 he's the GM for the Dolphins. One of the things 1419 01:06:23.239 --> 01:06:26.280 that these guys said in their opening press conferences was 1420 01:06:26.559 --> 01:06:29.880 having to go up north in Deceummer to play against 1421 01:06:29.920 --> 01:06:32.679 the Bills, the Jets, the Patriots to try to compete 1422 01:06:32.679 --> 01:06:35.280 for division titles. Halfley, I think, was the one who said, 1423 01:06:35.360 --> 01:06:38.719 you know, when it gets cold, speed sometimes gets slow, 1424 01:06:38.840 --> 01:06:40.239 but big never gets small. 1425 01:06:40.760 --> 01:06:41.800 And what do they do? 1426 01:06:41.880 --> 01:06:46.880 They trade their speedster Jalen Waddle to Denver. They let 1427 01:06:47.039 --> 01:06:49.679 Tyreek kill Goo, who's one of his big calling cards 1428 01:06:49.679 --> 01:06:52.320 with speed. Granted he's dealing with a significant injury, so 1429 01:06:52.559 --> 01:06:56.840 I get it, but I'm kind of wondering now if 1430 01:06:56.920 --> 01:06:59.400 and they said they're not trading Devon a Chant, which 1431 01:06:59.880 --> 01:07:02.559 makes perfect sense. He's basically the best weapon they have 1432 01:07:02.639 --> 01:07:05.239 on that offense right now. But what's the dynasty action 1433 01:07:05.360 --> 01:07:07.760 plan and a guy like Devon a Chan where he 1434 01:07:07.880 --> 01:07:11.639 is sort of like the last significant fantasy piece standing 1435 01:07:12.559 --> 01:07:17.480 in this post. Mike McDaniel era that Miami's undergoing right now. 1436 01:07:18.880 --> 01:07:20.880 Dolphins could look a lot different after the draft. They 1437 01:07:20.880 --> 01:07:23.840 could have a couple of day one and day two receivers. 1438 01:07:24.000 --> 01:07:26.280 They might sign a veteran and all of a sudden, 1439 01:07:26.280 --> 01:07:28.280 the receiver room is not looking so bad anymore. They 1440 01:07:28.280 --> 01:07:31.119 get add a tight end to go with dulsage too. 1441 01:07:31.760 --> 01:07:34.840 I think the offensive line is it could be a 1442 01:07:34.840 --> 01:07:37.639 lot worse. So that's not in the worst shape in 1443 01:07:37.639 --> 01:07:40.880 the world. But a Chan as it stands right now, kind. 1444 01:07:40.719 --> 01:07:42.679 Of a weird guy. What's your action plan? What are 1445 01:07:42.719 --> 01:07:43.079 you doing? 1446 01:07:43.280 --> 01:07:44.800 Is he a guy that we should be out out 1447 01:07:44.800 --> 01:07:47.760 there trying to acquire or is all this other stuff, 1448 01:07:47.760 --> 01:07:51.239 this uncertainty at least, is that causing you to maybe. 1449 01:07:51.280 --> 01:07:52.920 I want to get out of the a Chan business 1450 01:07:53.000 --> 01:07:53.400 right now? 1451 01:07:54.239 --> 01:07:56.039 Yeah, I mean I think it's ultimately it's going to 1452 01:07:56.079 --> 01:07:58.280 be lead dependent. But we have seen the market kind 1453 01:07:58.320 --> 01:07:59.960 of cool on a Chan a little bit. 1454 01:08:00.239 --> 01:08:00.440 You know. 1455 01:08:00.480 --> 01:08:02.159 He was the guy who most people viewed as the 1456 01:08:02.159 --> 01:08:06.880 consensus unanimous RB three behind Gibbs and bijon whichever order 1457 01:08:06.920 --> 01:08:09.159 you had those two guys in. But we've seen him 1458 01:08:09.159 --> 01:08:11.719 over the recent month or two kind of start falling 1459 01:08:11.719 --> 01:08:15.360 behind guys like Genti and falling behind guys like Amrion Hampton, 1460 01:08:15.679 --> 01:08:18.560 and I wouldn't be surprised if Jeremiah Love once he's 1461 01:08:18.560 --> 01:08:20.279 on an active NFL roster, and we can see the 1462 01:08:20.319 --> 01:08:22.720 landing spot kind of jump at Devon h Chan as well, 1463 01:08:22.880 --> 01:08:25.000 So the market has cooled on him. 1464 01:08:25.600 --> 01:08:27.960 I'm okay buying if. 1465 01:08:27.880 --> 01:08:30.119 It is at eighty cents on the dollar or ninety 1466 01:08:30.159 --> 01:08:32.600 cents on the dollar, I'm okay buying in because I 1467 01:08:32.640 --> 01:08:34.239 do think you have to think of it from a 1468 01:08:34.239 --> 01:08:36.840 different perspective of it could be a little bit of 1469 01:08:36.840 --> 01:08:39.279 a rough twenty twenty six season. There is a little 1470 01:08:39.319 --> 01:08:41.520 bit of uncertainty with Malik Willis doing some of the 1471 01:08:41.600 --> 01:08:43.840 rushing and maybe he's not gonna check down as much 1472 01:08:43.880 --> 01:08:46.279 as two A where Devon H Chan was making a 1473 01:08:46.319 --> 01:08:50.319 lot of his money in the receiving game. But everybody 1474 01:08:50.520 --> 01:08:53.960 with common sense, I think, including the guys you mentioned 1475 01:08:53.960 --> 01:08:57.399 in that front office, No, you can't rebuild a team, 1476 01:08:57.520 --> 01:09:00.000 or you shouldn't. It's not the best decision the rebuild 1477 01:09:00.199 --> 01:09:03.039 the team and then pay a running back a big contract. 1478 01:09:03.800 --> 01:09:04.680 I think Devon A. 1479 01:09:04.800 --> 01:09:08.279 Chan is more likely than not going to be out 1480 01:09:08.279 --> 01:09:11.720 of Miami in the next twelve months. And whichever team 1481 01:09:11.760 --> 01:09:13.720 goes out and gets Devon a Chan is getting him 1482 01:09:13.720 --> 01:09:15.760 because they believe in him. And will feature him in 1483 01:09:15.800 --> 01:09:18.159 their offense. So yes, you got to look at it 1484 01:09:18.199 --> 01:09:22.000 in the short term of Devon a Chan's twenty twenty six, 1485 01:09:22.239 --> 01:09:24.439 maybe a little bit less than what we're used to 1486 01:09:25.119 --> 01:09:28.199 looking back the last previous two years, but I do 1487 01:09:28.239 --> 01:09:30.199 think he's still a big play maker, one of the 1488 01:09:30.199 --> 01:09:32.560 best running backs in football, one of the highest points 1489 01:09:32.600 --> 01:09:35.399 scoring assets that we could have in Dynasty fantasy football. 1490 01:09:35.439 --> 01:09:38.000 So somebody I'm still definitely interested in getting, especially if 1491 01:09:38.000 --> 01:09:39.640 there's some panic around his name right now. 1492 01:09:39.880 --> 01:09:43.039 Still talented, I mean, he's still making plays and he's 1493 01:09:43.840 --> 01:09:46.399 the Kevin Durant or he's like a Kevin Durant type 1494 01:09:46.640 --> 01:09:49.399 player in the NFL where he can just go anywhere 1495 01:09:49.399 --> 01:09:52.680 and be great and an offense will be able to 1496 01:09:52.760 --> 01:09:56.119 use him. Is there any credence to this when they 1497 01:09:56.199 --> 01:09:59.479 talk about wanting to get bigger, more physical, that's not 1498 01:09:59.600 --> 01:10:02.039 Jalen it's calling card. It's not a chance calling card. 1499 01:10:02.520 --> 01:10:04.880 Ali Gordon is like two twenty five, like six two 1500 01:10:04.960 --> 01:10:08.399 two twenty five. Is he low key to borrow a 1501 01:10:08.399 --> 01:10:10.640 phrase from the kids, is he low key a sleeper 1502 01:10:10.720 --> 01:10:12.520 right now in Dynasty that you may want to see 1503 01:10:12.520 --> 01:10:14.520 and sniff around and maybe acquire on your teams because 1504 01:10:14.520 --> 01:10:15.680 his role could grow this year. 1505 01:10:16.359 --> 01:10:19.199 Yeah, I mean I think he he flashed in spurts 1506 01:10:19.359 --> 01:10:22.640 early in twenty twenty five, looked like he could be 1507 01:10:22.680 --> 01:10:24.279 a complimentary piece in this offense. 1508 01:10:24.399 --> 01:10:26.640 It does come down to, you know, whether they believe 1509 01:10:26.680 --> 01:10:27.079 he's the. 1510 01:10:27.039 --> 01:10:31.319 Guy or do these Packers front office guys who are 1511 01:10:31.319 --> 01:10:33.960 now in Miami see somebody in this year's draft class 1512 01:10:34.000 --> 01:10:35.840 that maybe they like to take a shot on, Like 1513 01:10:36.159 --> 01:10:38.640 that's something that I also could see them doing where 1514 01:10:38.960 --> 01:10:40.880 maybe they do open the door for some of these 1515 01:10:40.920 --> 01:10:43.960 conversations of we could trade a chan and go get 1516 01:10:44.000 --> 01:10:46.239 a guy on Day two to maybe bring him in 1517 01:10:46.279 --> 01:10:48.600 and if the h Hn trade doesn't happen, he's our 1518 01:10:48.680 --> 01:10:51.159 change of pace guy. But if the Hn trade happens, 1519 01:10:51.199 --> 01:10:53.119 this is our guy that will roll out with Ollie 1520 01:10:53.119 --> 01:10:55.039 Gordon or maybe a veteran running back from the free 1521 01:10:55.079 --> 01:10:55.640 agent market. 1522 01:10:55.840 --> 01:10:58.359 No doubt, one of the most exciting teams to be 1523 01:10:58.439 --> 01:11:03.319 watching NFL Draft Night and then obviously throughout the draft, 1524 01:11:03.439 --> 01:11:05.079 but Day one and Day two for sure is maybe 1525 01:11:05.079 --> 01:11:07.880 the Dolphins because that that team is definitely going to 1526 01:11:07.960 --> 01:11:10.199 look a lot different within the course of about forty 1527 01:11:10.239 --> 01:11:13.840 eight hours. Raschie Rice is next for the Dynasty action plan, 1528 01:11:13.880 --> 01:11:17.079 good luck on this one. He's dealing with, you know, 1529 01:11:17.159 --> 01:11:20.399 off field stuff, stuff that he finally got suspended for 1530 01:11:20.520 --> 01:11:23.279 with the street racing last year. But then you had 1531 01:11:23.319 --> 01:11:25.560 this report from TMZ about a month or so ago, 1532 01:11:26.520 --> 01:11:31.479 violent and abusive behaviors were listed in a lawsuit that 1533 01:11:31.640 --> 01:11:35.079 his the mother of his children, filed against him. 1534 01:11:35.880 --> 01:11:36.560 I don't know, man. 1535 01:11:36.960 --> 01:11:41.319 I'm fine with having a share too of him just 1536 01:11:41.359 --> 01:11:44.159 to see what happens. But from a Dynasty standpoint, I 1537 01:11:44.159 --> 01:11:46.600 think we got It's not like it's not like a 1538 01:11:46.600 --> 01:11:48.560 best Ball thing where you can kind of just sprinkle 1539 01:11:48.600 --> 01:11:50.760 around shares like in Dynasty. You kind of got to 1540 01:11:50.800 --> 01:11:55.359 make more significant plant plant flag planting decisions here. 1541 01:11:55.760 --> 01:11:56.560 What are you doing? 1542 01:11:56.560 --> 01:11:59.560 What's the Dynasty action plan with Rashie Rice? And quite frankly, 1543 01:11:59.600 --> 01:12:02.880 I don't know, like whether you're whether you're whether you're 1544 01:12:03.279 --> 01:12:05.760 I don't want to say tanking, but whether you're rebuilding 1545 01:12:06.239 --> 01:12:08.720 or whether you're trying to win right now, the answer 1546 01:12:08.800 --> 01:12:11.920 might be similar because the stuff that's affecting Rice is 1547 01:12:12.319 --> 01:12:17.479 not necessarily the status of where your team's at. It's 1548 01:12:17.479 --> 01:12:20.239 the status of what's going on with him off the field. 1549 01:12:20.479 --> 01:12:23.760 Yeah, He's a player that it just feels like every 1550 01:12:23.880 --> 01:12:26.720 off season for three years now almost it feels like 1551 01:12:26.760 --> 01:12:29.079 because you have the injury, then you have the off 1552 01:12:29.079 --> 01:12:31.039 the field stuff, and now you have the off the 1553 01:12:31.079 --> 01:12:33.840 field stuff again. It's been three off seasons now that 1554 01:12:33.960 --> 01:12:37.159 every offseason we're talking about man Rossie. Rice is kind 1555 01:12:37.159 --> 01:12:37.960 of undervalued. 1556 01:12:38.079 --> 01:12:39.000 You may think he's. 1557 01:12:38.880 --> 01:12:42.000 A pos off the football field, you may not like 1558 01:12:42.039 --> 01:12:45.000 who he is, but he's undervalued. And I'm looking over 1559 01:12:45.079 --> 01:12:48.560 at like these consensus websites. Most of these websites have 1560 01:12:48.600 --> 01:12:51.560 him outside of the top twenty eric like if he. 1561 01:12:51.600 --> 01:12:52.920 Goes in Week one. 1562 01:12:53.640 --> 01:12:56.439 We know that the NFL historically doesn't have a good 1563 01:12:56.479 --> 01:13:00.560 track record of issuing out punishments for these without a 1564 01:13:00.640 --> 01:13:05.000 lot of conviction in that type of stuff. It's really just, 1565 01:13:06.239 --> 01:13:08.680 I hate to say it. We're probably we're probably too 1566 01:13:08.720 --> 01:13:10.880 low on Rashie. We probably should be buying. We probably 1567 01:13:10.880 --> 01:13:13.199 should be adding him to teams. I'd be interested to 1568 01:13:13.239 --> 01:13:15.880 see where his market is because I bet he's one 1569 01:13:15.960 --> 01:13:18.800 of the guys where your league is going to view 1570 01:13:18.920 --> 01:13:21.159 him so differently than the league right next to you. 1571 01:13:21.159 --> 01:13:23.279 You could be in three or four different leagues and 1572 01:13:23.319 --> 01:13:26.119 in one league somebody's trying to sell him like hotcakes 1573 01:13:26.119 --> 01:13:27.920 in the next league. Somebody's like, Nah, I'm holding on 1574 01:13:27.920 --> 01:13:29.600 to him because I still believe in the top ten 1575 01:13:29.960 --> 01:13:32.840 upside that he has in this Chiefs offense. But like 1576 01:13:32.880 --> 01:13:35.479 I said earlier, man, this is an offense I would 1577 01:13:35.600 --> 01:13:37.920 like to see go out and get another receiving weapon. 1578 01:13:38.279 --> 01:13:41.159 Even if they do, I still think Rashie Rice is 1579 01:13:41.159 --> 01:13:43.439 going to have a pretty significant role here in Kansas City. 1580 01:13:43.600 --> 01:13:46.319 We have to sell off some more FFPC Dynasty orphans 1581 01:13:46.359 --> 01:13:48.319 before we launched startup, so I don't have any startup 1582 01:13:48.439 --> 01:13:51.119 data as far as where he's going for Dynasty. In 1583 01:13:51.159 --> 01:13:54.479 our never too early Best Ball tournament, he's over the 1584 01:13:54.560 --> 01:13:57.760 last week or so sample size with what a dozen 1585 01:13:57.760 --> 01:14:00.880 and a half drafts, Rashie Rice wide receiver twelve with 1586 01:14:00.960 --> 01:14:03.880 the three H seven right now, Andrew, this is after 1587 01:14:03.960 --> 01:14:07.760 Pickens and Olave, It's right before AJ Brown and Teo McMillan. 1588 01:14:08.039 --> 01:14:11.279 That's where Rice is going at that point. I don't think, 1589 01:14:11.520 --> 01:14:12.199 I mean, I don't know that. 1590 01:14:12.359 --> 01:14:14.399 That's sort of my goldilocks take. It's not too high, 1591 01:14:14.439 --> 01:14:16.399 it's not too low. That that seems just right to 1592 01:14:16.439 --> 01:14:22.199 me in the mid third for him, oh, you're on mute. Sorry, 1593 01:14:24.359 --> 01:14:26.560 hold on, you're still on mute. There you go. We're good. 1594 01:14:26.600 --> 01:14:26.920 I was. 1595 01:14:27.000 --> 01:14:29.119 I had my cursor over on the other screen, so 1596 01:14:29.159 --> 01:14:30.279 when I clicked it, it didn't do it. 1597 01:14:30.439 --> 01:14:30.880 Gotcha. 1598 01:14:31.159 --> 01:14:33.439 I'm looking at I'm looking at Dynasty ADP right now, 1599 01:14:33.439 --> 01:14:36.359 and he's kind of right around the same spot currently 1600 01:14:36.399 --> 01:14:41.359 being drafted as the wide receiver sixteen. It's the fiftieth 1601 01:14:41.399 --> 01:14:44.239 guy off the board right now. So you put him 1602 01:14:44.560 --> 01:14:49.359 around Lad McConkey, Romo Dunse, Luther Burden, it's putting him 1603 01:14:49.359 --> 01:14:50.439 in that kind of range. 1604 01:14:50.560 --> 01:14:52.840 You should be higher. I'm with you, he should. 1605 01:14:52.520 --> 01:14:56.079 Probably be higher, which then again leads me to saying 1606 01:14:56.079 --> 01:14:59.239 he's probably a bye right now. I would probably put 1607 01:14:59.319 --> 01:15:03.840 him closer to the a lave at Buca range, which 1608 01:15:04.000 --> 01:15:07.880 for comparison, that's turn that's the three four turn, whereas 1609 01:15:07.880 --> 01:15:09.800 he's right now going at the four to five turn. 1610 01:15:10.800 --> 01:15:13.439 That kind of clears things up for a receiver in 1611 01:15:13.520 --> 01:15:16.359 Kansas City. But things are still a little bit nebulous 1612 01:15:16.439 --> 01:15:18.640 with what I should be doing with Kenneth Walker. And 1613 01:15:20.399 --> 01:15:22.520 as exciting as it was to see what he did 1614 01:15:22.960 --> 01:15:24.960 not only in the Super Bowl Andrew, but down the 1615 01:15:25.000 --> 01:15:28.920 stretch in the postseason without Zach Charboney taking over sort 1616 01:15:28.920 --> 01:15:31.800 of an every down roll, catching the ball, getting the 1617 01:15:31.800 --> 01:15:33.960 ball in the end zone, doing it all, ripping off 1618 01:15:34.000 --> 01:15:36.479 big chunk games. He turns it into a forty three 1619 01:15:36.479 --> 01:15:41.680 million dollar contract with the Chiefs over three years. We 1620 01:15:41.760 --> 01:15:44.840 are all victims of recency bias. And I'm going to 1621 01:15:44.880 --> 01:15:47.600 tell you right now, I absolutely love Walker based on 1622 01:15:47.640 --> 01:15:48.720 what I saw at the end of the season. 1623 01:15:48.720 --> 01:15:51.159 But you know what, I don't remember as well how. 1624 01:15:51.000 --> 01:15:54.359 People were complaining myself included about how Walker was not 1625 01:15:54.399 --> 01:15:56.880 a great pick in fantasy drafts last year. He was 1626 01:15:56.960 --> 01:15:58.920 not a great player to be able to use in 1627 01:15:58.960 --> 01:16:02.920 dynasty leagues because of the presence of Zach Charboneau, And 1628 01:16:02.960 --> 01:16:05.319 even when sharbon A was out, It's not like Walker 1629 01:16:05.359 --> 01:16:08.880 crushed it. Every single time. We have seen this guy 1630 01:16:08.960 --> 01:16:12.439 rip off explosive runs, which is what the NFL needs 1631 01:16:12.520 --> 01:16:14.560 right now. It's what the NFL is looking for. It's 1632 01:16:14.640 --> 01:16:17.239 looking for explosive, big plays. I mean as a as 1633 01:16:17.239 --> 01:16:19.600 a as a Packers fan, I hear Matt Lafleur talk 1634 01:16:19.640 --> 01:16:22.199 about it seemingly in every press conference of how important 1635 01:16:22.239 --> 01:16:25.479 explosive plays are to scoring points in the end in 1636 01:16:25.479 --> 01:16:28.840 today's NFL, and and Walker can help you do that. 1637 01:16:28.960 --> 01:16:32.119 But he also, like I feel like he's. 1638 01:16:31.920 --> 01:16:34.640 Had his hamstrings and his quads explode, Like he's had 1639 01:16:35.079 --> 01:16:38.680 these nagging injuries that have have not only kept him 1640 01:16:38.680 --> 01:16:42.840 out off the field for certain games, but he's left 1641 01:16:42.920 --> 01:16:46.279 games early too, which is which is sometimes even. 1642 01:16:46.079 --> 01:16:48.079 Worse for us as fantasy players. 1643 01:16:48.600 --> 01:16:52.079 So Walker, to me, I mean, you see the ceiling. 1644 01:16:52.680 --> 01:16:55.279 I don't think everybody's seeing the floor right now. I 1645 01:16:55.279 --> 01:16:58.119 think i'd be as far as my action plan for 1646 01:16:58.199 --> 01:17:01.119 Dynasty leagues Kenneth Walker, I'm probably be looking to sell 1647 01:17:01.199 --> 01:17:03.399 high on him right now because I and I feel 1648 01:17:03.439 --> 01:17:05.239 like you can. But you tell me, I mean you're 1649 01:17:05.239 --> 01:17:09.000 in the dynasty streets more than I am. Your thoughts 1650 01:17:09.000 --> 01:17:11.359 on Walker and what we should be doing with him 1651 01:17:11.399 --> 01:17:12.439 in our Dino leagues. 1652 01:17:13.159 --> 01:17:15.319 Yeah, I mean, to me, he's a screaming sale man, 1653 01:17:15.359 --> 01:17:17.640 and I agree with everything that you said. Very fun 1654 01:17:17.680 --> 01:17:20.479 to watch him through the playoffs was awesome. Obviously a 1655 01:17:20.479 --> 01:17:23.439 big reason why they won that Super Bowl. You said 1656 01:17:23.439 --> 01:17:26.399 the quiet part out loud there, Eric. He is probably 1657 01:17:26.439 --> 01:17:30.000 one of the only running backs in recent memory who 1658 01:17:30.079 --> 01:17:34.760 has disappointed the previous season failed to help us win 1659 01:17:35.039 --> 01:17:39.560 in the Fantasy Football playoffs, but still saw value insulation 1660 01:17:40.079 --> 01:17:42.399 by the end of the year. I think he's a 1661 01:17:42.439 --> 01:17:46.119 player right now where if I can pivot, he's jumped 1662 01:17:46.239 --> 01:17:49.239 from being in that RB two range, the running back 1663 01:17:49.279 --> 01:17:51.479 twenty running back twenty one type of range where he 1664 01:17:51.640 --> 01:17:55.119 was just a year ago, to now being a consensus 1665 01:17:55.560 --> 01:17:58.720 top ten guy. If I can pivot and go to 1666 01:17:58.800 --> 01:18:02.640 a guy like James Cook Jonathan Taylor, these feel like 1667 01:18:02.760 --> 01:18:06.399 no brainer contending moves for me because I've seen it 1668 01:18:06.479 --> 01:18:09.520 happen year in and year out with Taylor and Cook. 1669 01:18:09.840 --> 01:18:12.319 I can't say the same thing for Walker. And then 1670 01:18:12.359 --> 01:18:14.520 if you had him on a team that was young 1671 01:18:14.840 --> 01:18:17.199 playing for the future, you got lucky, You got some 1672 01:18:17.319 --> 01:18:20.720 value installation there. You have plenty of pivot options here 1673 01:18:20.720 --> 01:18:23.520 where you could downteer him to a Trevon Henderson, a 1674 01:18:23.600 --> 01:18:27.279 Quinn Shawn Judkins, move him forward probably Chase Brown and 1675 01:18:27.359 --> 01:18:29.560 a plus Bucky Irving and a plus if you want 1676 01:18:29.560 --> 01:18:31.760 to stay in that route. There's just a lot of 1677 01:18:31.800 --> 01:18:34.199 moves you can make with Kenneth Walker right now, and 1678 01:18:34.239 --> 01:18:36.199 I don't think his market is going to get any 1679 01:18:36.279 --> 01:18:37.640 hotter than it is right now. 1680 01:18:37.880 --> 01:18:40.880 Yeah, I think this is what dynasty fantasy football is 1681 01:18:40.920 --> 01:18:44.079 all about. Right. It's not about liking a player or 1682 01:18:44.279 --> 01:18:47.920 or not liking a player. It's it's cashing in and 1683 01:18:48.520 --> 01:18:51.319 at the right time for value. And it's also selling, 1684 01:18:51.359 --> 01:18:53.560 all right, it's also buying at the right value, right, 1685 01:18:53.600 --> 01:18:56.000 That's the difference. That's the fine line that we walk 1686 01:18:56.039 --> 01:18:59.279 as dynasty fantasy football players. So much fun, so maddening 1687 01:18:59.279 --> 01:19:01.600 at times too, but then every now and then you 1688 01:19:01.720 --> 01:19:04.560 usually get something that's just hitting you like a brick 1689 01:19:04.640 --> 01:19:07.239 in the face of selling Kenneth Walker, it makes perfect 1690 01:19:07.279 --> 01:19:10.000 sense to me. Luther Burden is a guy speaking of 1691 01:19:10.119 --> 01:19:13.680 guys steaming up right now, Luther Burden ever since, like 1692 01:19:13.800 --> 01:19:16.000 sort of his the end of his season last year, 1693 01:19:16.000 --> 01:19:18.560 and you could probably throw Colston Loveland into this conversation 1694 01:19:18.640 --> 01:19:21.159 as well. Those guys were awesome towards the end of 1695 01:19:21.159 --> 01:19:24.079 the season, especially Loveland. But getting back to Burden, he 1696 01:19:24.119 --> 01:19:26.039 plays at a position that I think we put more 1697 01:19:26.079 --> 01:19:29.279 of a premium on, even though FFPC does feature tight 1698 01:19:29.359 --> 01:19:30.239 end premium leagues. 1699 01:19:31.079 --> 01:19:32.680 Burden is a guy that I think a lot of 1700 01:19:32.720 --> 01:19:33.479 people are after. 1701 01:19:33.880 --> 01:19:40.079 He's a guy that was the second pick by Ben 1702 01:19:40.159 --> 01:19:42.920 Johnson and Ryan Poles. There I know Poles made the pick, 1703 01:19:42.920 --> 01:19:45.479 but I'm sure that was heavily influenced by Ben Johnson, 1704 01:19:45.760 --> 01:19:47.840 and we saw how good it can beat. And now 1705 01:19:47.920 --> 01:19:49.720 DJ Moore and I don't know how many targets he 1706 01:19:49.800 --> 01:19:52.239 got last year, but he's gone, and certainly some of 1707 01:19:52.239 --> 01:19:57.279 those should trickle over to Burden, to Loveland, to Odoons. 1708 01:19:58.359 --> 01:20:02.520 But your thoughts specifically on what's the story here, because 1709 01:20:02.520 --> 01:20:04.960 I feel like this is not a buying opportunity right 1710 01:20:05.000 --> 01:20:07.359 now for Burden. I don't know if it's necessarily a 1711 01:20:07.399 --> 01:20:08.760 selling opportunity either. 1712 01:20:09.600 --> 01:20:12.479 Yeah, I mean, I agree with you there, Burden's a player. 1713 01:20:12.600 --> 01:20:15.239 To me that the market got really hot and heavy 1714 01:20:15.239 --> 01:20:18.439 over too early. It was premature on Luther Burden, and 1715 01:20:18.479 --> 01:20:20.520 at the end of last year, everybody was pushing him up, 1716 01:20:20.560 --> 01:20:23.960 adp pushing him up, you know whatever Consensus Rankings website 1717 01:20:23.960 --> 01:20:25.359 you had him, and he was just getting pushed up 1718 01:20:25.399 --> 01:20:27.960 the board. And at that point I was like, guys, 1719 01:20:28.319 --> 01:20:30.319 DJ Moore is still on the team. DJ Moore is 1720 01:20:30.319 --> 01:20:33.239 still here. We're hoping and making these moves at the 1721 01:20:33.239 --> 01:20:36.000 hope that DJ Moore leaves. Well he does, and then 1722 01:20:36.359 --> 01:20:39.039 there really isn't much of a reaction from the market. 1723 01:20:39.079 --> 01:20:39.960 For the most part. 1724 01:20:40.359 --> 01:20:42.880 For Luthor Burden, he went up probably about five or 1725 01:20:42.920 --> 01:20:46.439 six spots in consensus rankings, but it really wasn't that 1726 01:20:46.439 --> 01:20:48.920 big of a shift. Tells me that he was overvalued 1727 01:20:48.960 --> 01:20:52.600 beforehand and there was no more room for insulation once 1728 01:20:52.640 --> 01:20:55.680 the move actually happened. You bring up DJ Moore and 1729 01:20:55.720 --> 01:20:58.279 the targets that he's leaving behind. He's vacating about eighty 1730 01:20:58.279 --> 01:21:00.760 plus targets this year. Do you think that that's going 1731 01:21:00.800 --> 01:21:05.239 to trickle down primarily to Luther Burden. Sure, he's probably 1732 01:21:05.319 --> 01:21:07.800 good at his current ADP, but I'm looking at him 1733 01:21:07.880 --> 01:21:11.279 right now and putting him in between a group of 1734 01:21:11.319 --> 01:21:15.359 guys in Lad McConkie, Rashie Rice, and Romo Dounse. I 1735 01:21:15.479 --> 01:21:17.880 like Romo Dunsea more than I like Luther Burden on 1736 01:21:17.920 --> 01:21:19.960 this offense. I think you can point to early last 1737 01:21:20.039 --> 01:21:23.520 year and say, before the injury, Romo Dunze was the 1738 01:21:23.560 --> 01:21:26.520 guy he was bawling out for the Bears early on, 1739 01:21:26.840 --> 01:21:29.680 and I don't think that that necessarily is going to change. 1740 01:21:29.319 --> 01:21:30.960 For them at the end of the day. 1741 01:21:31.000 --> 01:21:31.239 Though. 1742 01:21:31.319 --> 01:21:35.119 Luther Burden, for me, he's a player that probably is 1743 01:21:36.039 --> 01:21:40.159 at his peak value, but I'm not selling because The 1744 01:21:40.199 --> 01:21:44.359 guys below him are AJ Brown. Maybe if you're a contender, 1745 01:21:44.399 --> 01:21:46.359 you want that, but you definitely need a big plus 1746 01:21:46.399 --> 01:21:49.880 on that Jamison Williams, Za Flowers, T Higgins. I think 1747 01:21:49.920 --> 01:21:53.039 the upside's bigger than those guys. It's just he's he's 1748 01:21:53.119 --> 01:21:56.000 kind of a player that's falling into this whole territory. 1749 01:21:56.359 --> 01:21:59.520 Yeah, yeah, I think that's right. He is a hold 1750 01:21:59.600 --> 01:22:04.199 right now, and we shall see what a DJ mooreless Brown, 1751 01:22:04.359 --> 01:22:07.239 I beg your pardon bears offense looks like in twenty 1752 01:22:07.279 --> 01:22:07.760 twenty six. 1753 01:22:07.800 --> 01:22:08.479 But I'm willing to. 1754 01:22:08.439 --> 01:22:10.760 Bet that burden is a beneficiary. 1755 01:22:10.960 --> 01:22:12.960 You know what, now that I think about it, he 1756 01:22:13.079 --> 01:22:16.720 might actually be a player that can you tack on 1757 01:22:16.720 --> 01:22:18.840 one of these first round picks in twenty twenty six? 1758 01:22:18.880 --> 01:22:20.600 Can you tack the one oh seven or the one 1759 01:22:20.640 --> 01:22:21.920 o eight or the one o nine on top of 1760 01:22:22.000 --> 01:22:25.000 him and try and get into that TMAC range. Can 1761 01:22:25.000 --> 01:22:27.000 you get a tedor Ro McMillan. Can you get a 1762 01:22:27.079 --> 01:22:30.119 Chris Alave? Can you go up to that range? That 1763 01:22:30.199 --> 01:22:32.439 might be the move. It's gonna feel expensive, but it 1764 01:22:32.520 --> 01:22:33.920 might be the actual move with him. 1765 01:22:34.479 --> 01:22:36.880 It's it's one of those things where I think that 1766 01:22:38.079 --> 01:22:41.000 you know it sounds expensive, but let's wait till after 1767 01:22:41.079 --> 01:22:43.159 rookie drafts happen, and then what does that sound like? 1768 01:22:43.239 --> 01:22:46.199 It sounds like Casey Concepcion and Luther Burden and then 1769 01:22:46.239 --> 01:22:49.279 you get Tedero McMillan. Now it doesn't sound as expensive, right. 1770 01:22:49.359 --> 01:22:52.439 Yeah, Danzel Boston gets a great landing spot and it's 1771 01:22:52.520 --> 01:22:53.840 Denzel Boston. 1772 01:22:53.560 --> 01:22:57.159 Right, This is this is this is true, and I 1773 01:22:57.199 --> 01:23:00.279 think not that you'd want to necessarily do that. I'm 1774 01:23:00.319 --> 01:23:02.600 just saying if we if we don't say the pick 1775 01:23:02.640 --> 01:23:05.239 and we say the player who goes there, it often 1776 01:23:05.279 --> 01:23:09.880 doesn't sounds as nice as as it does with the pick. Okay, 1777 01:23:10.079 --> 01:23:12.880 stick in the same division here, Sam Laporta, I've been 1778 01:23:12.880 --> 01:23:16.880 talking about this for months. Nobody ever used to and 1779 01:23:16.960 --> 01:23:19.800 nobody says they. Nobody ever says they used to have 1780 01:23:19.840 --> 01:23:22.680 a bad back. Sam Laporte is back was the talk 1781 01:23:22.800 --> 01:23:26.640 of fantasy football like for four days, and then all 1782 01:23:26.640 --> 01:23:28.680 of a sudden it wasn't at all, because that's how 1783 01:23:28.760 --> 01:23:29.880 quick he got shut down. 1784 01:23:30.079 --> 01:23:31.319 First he's gonna be on IR. 1785 01:23:31.439 --> 01:23:33.119 First he's gonna miss a game, then he's gonna go 1786 01:23:33.159 --> 01:23:34.840 on IR, and then he was out for the season. 1787 01:23:35.600 --> 01:23:39.159 He comes back granted to an offense this year with 1788 01:23:39.239 --> 01:23:42.119 Drew Petzig, who used a lot of thirteen personnel in Arizona. 1789 01:23:42.119 --> 01:23:45.159 I don't know, necessarily know if they do that in Detroit, 1790 01:23:46.199 --> 01:23:48.239 but this could be a good thing for Laporta. The 1791 01:23:48.319 --> 01:23:53.039 back injury scares me, not necessarily because I think it's 1792 01:23:53.119 --> 01:23:55.840 it's gonna be a debilitating thing. It scares me because 1793 01:23:55.840 --> 01:23:57.680 I haven't heard at a lot of reporting on it. 1794 01:23:57.680 --> 01:23:59.720 I haven't heard a lot of people saying, Oh, yeah, 1795 01:23:59.720 --> 01:24:01.600 it's it's coming along really well, he's doing all this. 1796 01:24:02.039 --> 01:24:05.159 I've heard nothing, and usually no news is sometimes bad 1797 01:24:05.239 --> 01:24:08.239 news here. Or maybe I'm just like chicken little right now, 1798 01:24:08.239 --> 01:24:11.239 this guy's falling your thoughts on the Dynasty action plan 1799 01:24:11.319 --> 01:24:12.800 for one Sam Laporta injured. 1800 01:24:13.640 --> 01:24:17.279 Yeah, for me, it's not even necessarily the injury of 1801 01:24:17.319 --> 01:24:20.239 Sam Laporta. It's always the fact that there is a 1802 01:24:20.359 --> 01:24:24.439 lot of mouths to feed here in Detroit, and typically 1803 01:24:24.880 --> 01:24:27.800 my theory and my process when it comes to trying 1804 01:24:27.840 --> 01:24:31.319 to tack these tight ends onto my Dynasty fantasy football teams, 1805 01:24:31.399 --> 01:24:34.239 or any fantasy football team for that matter, is I'm 1806 01:24:34.279 --> 01:24:36.720 looking for guys who can be the number one or 1807 01:24:36.760 --> 01:24:40.199 the number two receiving option in their offense. To me, 1808 01:24:40.279 --> 01:24:45.079 Sam Laporta can't be that right now, it's Jamison Williams 1809 01:24:45.079 --> 01:24:47.000 and Amana Saint Brown, and if you really want to 1810 01:24:47.000 --> 01:24:50.239 look at it, it's probably also Jamiir Gibbs is actually 1811 01:24:50.279 --> 01:24:53.199 the number two receiving option in this offense. So it's 1812 01:24:53.239 --> 01:24:55.439 really hard for me to find a pathway where the 1813 01:24:55.560 --> 01:24:59.720 volume is going to find Sam Laporta in a besketball league, 1814 01:25:00.000 --> 01:25:03.479 absolutely find his ADPs. Probably find where you're getting him too. 1815 01:25:03.920 --> 01:25:07.039 You're gonna have enough scoring opportunities for Detroit. But a 1816 01:25:07.039 --> 01:25:09.560 lineup league, he's a guy that I think I would 1817 01:25:09.600 --> 01:25:12.960 be trying to pivot away from and down tier him 1818 01:25:13.000 --> 01:25:15.720 somewhere else to get something thrown in on top. 1819 01:25:16.439 --> 01:25:20.640 Interesting, Okay, good knowledge on Laporta on that one, for sure. 1820 01:25:22.319 --> 01:25:24.600 A player that is gonna we just talked about Petsig 1821 01:25:24.720 --> 01:25:28.039 taken over as OC and Detroit. A quarterback that's going 1822 01:25:28.119 --> 01:25:31.359 to have his third offensive coordinator in as many years 1823 01:25:31.760 --> 01:25:36.439 in Philadelphia as Jalen Hurts. Good news for Hurts. The 1824 01:25:36.520 --> 01:25:39.079 Toush push is not going away. Bad news for Hurts. 1825 01:25:39.600 --> 01:25:42.479 He said himself that it's getting tougher and tougher. To 1826 01:25:42.560 --> 01:25:45.600 run because people are stopping it. More kind of at 1827 01:25:45.600 --> 01:25:47.880 a crossroads with him too, because we don't know what 1828 01:25:47.920 --> 01:25:51.720 the status is with Aj Brown Goddard's back. So at 1829 01:25:51.800 --> 01:25:55.119 least that question got answered, and we have to kind 1830 01:25:55.119 --> 01:25:58.920 of suss out as fantasy players, dynasty fantasy players, what 1831 01:25:59.039 --> 01:26:02.279 was the reason for the Eagles offense being so bad 1832 01:26:02.319 --> 01:26:04.159 last year or at least, I don't say bad, but 1833 01:26:04.279 --> 01:26:07.399 so underwhelming last year? Was it Aj Brown's fault? Was 1834 01:26:07.399 --> 01:26:09.479 it Jalen Hurts his fault? Was it Kevin Tulo's fault. 1835 01:26:09.479 --> 01:26:11.840 I'm sure there's a combination of of all three of those, 1836 01:26:11.920 --> 01:26:14.239 you know, having blame on this. But we have to 1837 01:26:14.239 --> 01:26:17.199 figure this out for fantasy. What's the dynasty action plan 1838 01:26:17.319 --> 01:26:19.880 on Jalen Hurts right now? A guy who probably hasn't 1839 01:26:19.960 --> 01:26:21.720 hit his prime yet, got a lot of good football 1840 01:26:21.760 --> 01:26:23.720 in front of him. At the same time, if you 1841 01:26:23.760 --> 01:26:25.960 had him last year, you know he kind of left 1842 01:26:25.960 --> 01:26:26.920 a lot to be desired. 1843 01:26:27.600 --> 01:26:29.760 Yeah, and he's going to be a guy who the 1844 01:26:29.840 --> 01:26:32.479 direction of your dynasty roster it's going to be dependent 1845 01:26:32.520 --> 01:26:34.520 on what you do with him. I think he's a 1846 01:26:34.520 --> 01:26:37.520 player where if I am contending, I'm trying to win 1847 01:26:37.680 --> 01:26:39.800 in twenty twenty six. I think I'm in a one 1848 01:26:39.840 --> 01:26:41.920 or two year window here where i want to be competitive. 1849 01:26:42.239 --> 01:26:45.279 Jalen Hurts is a bye right now. Most of these 1850 01:26:45.319 --> 01:26:49.039 consensus sites have him around quarterback ten. We know the 1851 01:26:49.039 --> 01:26:51.560 ceiling for him is much higher than that. I think 1852 01:26:51.640 --> 01:26:55.119 the signing of Elijah Moore sometimes you got to feed 1853 01:26:55.159 --> 01:26:58.880 into narratives here and get into narrative street, and honestly, 1854 01:26:58.920 --> 01:27:00.600 that's with this point of the office. Season is four 1855 01:27:00.680 --> 01:27:04.000 for the most part. Anyways, Elijah Moore is one of 1856 01:27:04.039 --> 01:27:07.960 AJ Brown's best friends. There's a story way back when 1857 01:27:08.000 --> 01:27:09.720 I'm sure a lot of people have heard the story 1858 01:27:09.720 --> 01:27:13.399 of AJ Brown battling depression and dealing with some of 1859 01:27:13.399 --> 01:27:16.520 that stuff. Elijah Moore is the guy who he called 1860 01:27:16.960 --> 01:27:19.720 and helped him through some of that time. Elijah Moore 1861 01:27:19.760 --> 01:27:22.960 is a Philadelphia Eagle. I think that is an olive 1862 01:27:23.039 --> 01:27:27.159 branch signing by this front office to say, we got 1863 01:27:27.159 --> 01:27:29.239 your buddy in here, let's make this run and let's 1864 01:27:29.239 --> 01:27:31.079 try and do it again this year. The Eagles know 1865 01:27:31.119 --> 01:27:33.279 they're in a contending window. It's not smart for them 1866 01:27:33.319 --> 01:27:35.479 to move off of AJ Brown right now. If they're 1867 01:27:35.520 --> 01:27:37.880 trying to win, they have a guy in a running 1868 01:27:37.920 --> 01:27:40.399 back here that's in his prime as well. Got to 1869 01:27:40.439 --> 01:27:42.359 get the best you can out of this roster while 1870 01:27:42.359 --> 01:27:45.159 you still can contend. I think he probably runs back 1871 01:27:45.199 --> 01:27:48.760 this year, So as a contender, you're buying Jalen Hurts. However, 1872 01:27:49.960 --> 01:27:52.600 just because I have confidence in them in twenty twenty 1873 01:27:52.640 --> 01:27:56.159 six and maybe twenty twenty seven. In a dynasty league, 1874 01:27:56.199 --> 01:27:59.319 we're playing long term sometimes, and I don't know if 1875 01:27:59.359 --> 01:28:01.159 that means that this Eagles team is going to be 1876 01:28:01.159 --> 01:28:04.920 able to survive an aging AJ Brown and an aging 1877 01:28:04.920 --> 01:28:08.640 Saquon Barkley and a guy in Jalen Hurts who we've 1878 01:28:08.680 --> 01:28:11.720 seen him be fantasy football relevant. The issue has been 1879 01:28:12.319 --> 01:28:15.279 it's been more rushing and less passing than what you'd 1880 01:28:15.319 --> 01:28:18.880 like to see. I think if I'm rebuilding, I'm trying 1881 01:28:18.880 --> 01:28:21.279 to pivot off of him, and I've seen him in 1882 01:28:21.319 --> 01:28:24.720 startup drafts get bunched into this bunch of quarterbacks. I 1883 01:28:24.800 --> 01:28:27.479 just posted a poll about this the other day because 1884 01:28:27.520 --> 01:28:29.640 actually all of these quarterbacks were back to back to 1885 01:28:29.680 --> 01:28:32.359 back to back in ADP right there at that turn. 1886 01:28:32.840 --> 01:28:37.520 It was Jackson, dart, Patrick Mahomes, Justin Herbert, and Jalen 1887 01:28:37.600 --> 01:28:41.720 Hurts as a contending team, Jalen Hurts kind of sounds 1888 01:28:41.760 --> 01:28:44.199 like the best option as. 1889 01:28:44.079 --> 01:28:45.119 A rebuilding team. 1890 01:28:45.439 --> 01:28:47.960 There might be two or three guys that I might 1891 01:28:48.079 --> 01:28:51.119 choose over Jalen Hurts from that group. So I think 1892 01:28:51.119 --> 01:28:53.840 there's a lot of room here, depending on your team 1893 01:28:53.880 --> 01:28:55.800 and your direction, where you can pivot him into that 1894 01:28:55.880 --> 01:28:58.840 cell category. But point blank, period, if I'm trying to 1895 01:28:58.840 --> 01:29:01.399 win in twenty twenty six Hurts at his current cost, 1896 01:29:01.720 --> 01:29:03.239 you're probably getting a decent value. 1897 01:29:03.439 --> 01:29:05.600 In the NFL, it's all about acquiring, you know, you 1898 01:29:06.119 --> 01:29:09.520 try to acquire as much talent as possible. Teams of 1899 01:29:09.640 --> 01:29:14.439 scouts and you know front office people that will work 1900 01:29:14.520 --> 01:29:16.600 eighty hours a week for very little money in some 1901 01:29:16.640 --> 01:29:19.680 cases to try to to you know, figure out who 1902 01:29:19.720 --> 01:29:21.199 the best players are going to be in the NFL, 1903 01:29:21.239 --> 01:29:24.000 because everybody's after the best players. A. J. Brown is 1904 01:29:24.000 --> 01:29:26.199 one of the best players at his position. Howie Roseman 1905 01:29:26.279 --> 01:29:28.399 is an extremely intelligent GM, at least I think so. 1906 01:29:28.479 --> 01:29:30.800 I think he's proven it over the years. It's really 1907 01:29:30.800 --> 01:29:33.000 difficult for me to connect the dot to say that 1908 01:29:33.039 --> 01:29:36.199 Howie Roseman is going to move off of a good player, 1909 01:29:36.279 --> 01:29:38.800 a great player in AJ Brown, and somehow that makes 1910 01:29:38.840 --> 01:29:40.760 the Eagles better. So I do believe he's with the 1911 01:29:40.800 --> 01:29:45.199 team this year. Did not know the Elijah More thing, 1912 01:29:45.439 --> 01:29:47.800 and and that I think kind of cements it for 1913 01:29:47.920 --> 01:29:49.880 me that, you know, it's kind of like you know, 1914 01:29:49.920 --> 01:29:52.880 as a Milwaukee Bucks fan, when when the Bucks got 1915 01:29:52.920 --> 01:29:56.039 fanasas At Tetakumpo, the older brother of Giannis a Tetokoumpo 1916 01:29:56.119 --> 01:29:58.159 on the team, and they kept him there and they 1917 01:29:58.199 --> 01:29:59.840 never put him in until the end of the game, 1918 01:29:59.840 --> 01:30:01.600 like he never played any meaningful minutes. He was just 1919 01:30:01.680 --> 01:30:04.399 there to keep his little brother happy. And maybe this 1920 01:30:04.479 --> 01:30:07.520 is what we're seeing to a degree with Elijahmore and 1921 01:30:07.560 --> 01:30:10.840 aj Brown in the NFL. DJ Moore, we just talked 1922 01:30:10.840 --> 01:30:13.399 about him as a as a bear, Let's talk about 1923 01:30:13.439 --> 01:30:17.119 it as a buffalo bill. I think here's the analogy. 1924 01:30:17.159 --> 01:30:21.359 I don't know if it's a good one. In concocting 1925 01:30:24.359 --> 01:30:30.319 scientific experience experiments and developing drugs or anything that's going 1926 01:30:30.319 --> 01:30:32.800 to cure diseases, it's a fine line, right, you have 1927 01:30:32.880 --> 01:30:35.520 to get your measurements just right. You have to have 1928 01:30:35.600 --> 01:30:40.239 that concoction exactly measured perfectly, because if it's just off 1929 01:30:40.279 --> 01:30:43.760 by a little bit, can have radical unintended consequences. Right, 1930 01:30:44.880 --> 01:30:48.159 jazz music, you can screw up, you can freestyle, you 1931 01:30:48.199 --> 01:30:50.760 can do whatever you want in there, and somehow that 1932 01:30:50.880 --> 01:30:53.960 makes the product better. Is when people aren't on the 1933 01:30:54.000 --> 01:30:55.880 same page and they don't know what's going on, and 1934 01:30:55.920 --> 01:30:58.840 it's not perfect and it's there's no set form to it. 1935 01:30:59.239 --> 01:31:02.279 I think DJ More is more a jazz musician wide 1936 01:31:02.279 --> 01:31:07.880 receiver than a clinical scientist wide receiver. And I think 1937 01:31:07.920 --> 01:31:11.319 Josh Allen is much more likely to be playing in 1938 01:31:11.359 --> 01:31:15.399 a jazz club than conducting experience experiments. Is I know 1939 01:31:15.439 --> 01:31:17.199 it is a long walk for a short drink of 1940 01:31:17.199 --> 01:31:19.920 water here, but I think that you say what you 1941 01:31:19.920 --> 01:31:22.000 will about what Moore did. 1942 01:31:21.960 --> 01:31:23.600 Or didn't do in Chicago last year. 1943 01:31:23.960 --> 01:31:26.840 I think the fit with him in Buffalo with Josh 1944 01:31:26.840 --> 01:31:31.840 Allen is infinitely better than than what he had in 1945 01:31:31.880 --> 01:31:35.199 a highly precise offense that Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams 1946 01:31:35.199 --> 01:31:36.399 were orchestrating last year. 1947 01:31:36.800 --> 01:31:38.279 Spot on with that little off. 1948 01:31:38.159 --> 01:31:38.640 What do you think? 1949 01:31:39.319 --> 01:31:40.680 No, I think you're right on there. 1950 01:31:40.760 --> 01:31:43.640 I recently put out a video talking about DJ Moore 1951 01:31:44.199 --> 01:31:46.600 is a buy post free agency, and I know a 1952 01:31:46.640 --> 01:31:49.359 lot of people have said, like, hey, his values already 1953 01:31:49.359 --> 01:31:53.760 went up. I honestly expected the market to react harsher 1954 01:31:53.920 --> 01:31:56.720 than it already did. Like he's a guy right now 1955 01:31:56.760 --> 01:32:00.119 that I've seen people floating him in their dynasty ranking 1956 01:32:00.159 --> 01:32:03.920 somewhere between twenty six and thirty. This is a guy 1957 01:32:04.000 --> 01:32:07.479 to me who has high end wide receiver to upside 1958 01:32:07.880 --> 01:32:09.199 for at least two or three. 1959 01:32:09.119 --> 01:32:09.880 More seasons here. 1960 01:32:09.880 --> 01:32:12.119 With Josh Allen, I don't think that they trade for 1961 01:32:12.199 --> 01:32:15.760 him without having plans at a potential extension for him 1962 01:32:15.800 --> 01:32:18.920 long term. They know the issue has been that they 1963 01:32:19.039 --> 01:32:22.159 let Digs out of the building and they haven't fixed 1964 01:32:22.159 --> 01:32:24.960 the wide receiver position. I think Dj Moore is that 1965 01:32:25.000 --> 01:32:27.840 guy for them long term. They're in a competitive window. 1966 01:32:27.920 --> 01:32:30.680 They need a veteran that can play to your analogy 1967 01:32:30.800 --> 01:32:33.600 some jazz there. With Josh Allen, I agree, he's really 1968 01:32:33.680 --> 01:32:37.560 good at just kind of figuring it out as the 1969 01:32:37.600 --> 01:32:40.560 routes go, and that's going to really play into Josh 1970 01:32:40.560 --> 01:32:42.680 Allen's talent of extending the plays. 1971 01:32:42.880 --> 01:32:44.399 So I think it's a perfect fit. 1972 01:32:44.760 --> 01:32:47.640 He's a guy that I probably would be trying to 1973 01:32:47.720 --> 01:32:50.720 move a trade offer that I even have sent out 1974 01:32:50.720 --> 01:32:53.159 in one of my own leagues. Is we just talked 1975 01:32:53.159 --> 01:32:55.760 about the one O nine I'm trying to send first 1976 01:32:55.840 --> 01:32:57.760 round picks the late first round picks this year where 1977 01:32:57.800 --> 01:33:00.920 I don't really believe in a lot of the players, 1978 01:33:00.960 --> 01:33:02.640 or maybe there's gonna get a little bit more rookie 1979 01:33:02.720 --> 01:33:05.159 hype over the next couple or the next month as 1980 01:33:05.159 --> 01:33:08.159 we approach the NFL Draft. I'll buy DJ Moore right 1981 01:33:08.199 --> 01:33:10.359 now at twenty eight to twenty nine years old and 1982 01:33:10.399 --> 01:33:12.039 get two years of what I think is going to 1983 01:33:12.079 --> 01:33:13.760 be potential high wide receiver two production. 1984 01:33:14.079 --> 01:33:16.119 Maybe this is getting cute, but you could also look 1985 01:33:16.119 --> 01:33:18.920 at it from the standpoint of it takes a little 1986 01:33:18.920 --> 01:33:21.239 bit for the chemistry to gel when you play football 1987 01:33:21.319 --> 01:33:23.199 like that, like when you play football like Allen and 1988 01:33:23.239 --> 01:33:25.920 More do. And maybe they do have a rough September together, 1989 01:33:26.159 --> 01:33:28.319 and there's gonna be people that are like, I knew it, 1990 01:33:28.479 --> 01:33:30.319 This More thing is gonna blow up in their face, 1991 01:33:30.600 --> 01:33:32.079 and then all of a sudden October they could turn 1992 01:33:32.119 --> 01:33:34.279 it on. Maybe the key is is hoping gets off 1993 01:33:34.319 --> 01:33:36.079 to a slow start because I still believe it more 1994 01:33:36.239 --> 01:33:38.199 and even if that happens, I'd still be buying them, 1995 01:33:38.199 --> 01:33:40.399 and then it could be an even cheaper price late 1996 01:33:40.439 --> 01:33:41.159 September two. 1997 01:33:41.399 --> 01:33:44.680 Absolutely, and you have to also point to the connection. 1998 01:33:44.960 --> 01:33:46.880 I love, like I said, talking about the connections and 1999 01:33:46.920 --> 01:33:48.840 the storylines and the pathways, because I think it helps 2000 01:33:48.880 --> 01:33:51.479 us sometimes read between the lines. It's Ree united with 2001 01:33:51.520 --> 01:33:54.840 Joe Brady. Joe Brady had him in Carolina, and Joe 2002 01:33:54.920 --> 01:33:57.880 Brady chose Dj Moore to bring him over into his 2003 01:33:57.920 --> 01:33:59.199 offense now that he's the head coach. 2004 01:33:59.439 --> 01:34:03.760 Excellent. Aronde Gadsden is one of the many playmakers on 2005 01:34:03.880 --> 01:34:06.439 the Los Angeles Chargers team. Why is this exciting this 2006 01:34:06.520 --> 01:34:09.520 year more than previous years because they have Mike McDaniel there. 2007 01:34:10.119 --> 01:34:12.720 I've been talking about this on all my shows for months, 2008 01:34:12.880 --> 01:34:14.880 ever since McDaniel got the job, or ever since it 2009 01:34:14.920 --> 01:34:18.479 was reported that he's gonna get the job. Gadsden, McConkey, 2010 01:34:18.760 --> 01:34:22.039 Quinton Johnston, Trey Harris, so Mari and Hampton. The list 2011 01:34:22.079 --> 01:34:25.520 goes on. The tackles are back this year, Alton Slater, 2012 01:34:25.560 --> 01:34:28.560 which is obviously gonna help Justin Herbert. What's the Dynasty 2013 01:34:28.600 --> 01:34:31.880 action plan on a guy like Aronde Gadston who had talent, 2014 01:34:32.159 --> 01:34:35.439 who showed out but maybe burned out a little bit 2015 01:34:35.479 --> 01:34:36.920 early last year. I think he was dealing with an 2016 01:34:36.960 --> 01:34:39.159 injury too. But now it's a new offense, what do 2017 01:34:39.199 --> 01:34:40.000 we do with Gadsden? 2018 01:34:40.840 --> 01:34:42.880 Well, free agency has started to paint the picture a 2019 01:34:42.880 --> 01:34:45.960 little bit clearer for me. You see Keenan Allen still 2020 01:34:46.000 --> 01:34:47.600 out there on the market, and could he come back 2021 01:34:47.600 --> 01:34:50.640 and run it back in you know Los Angeles. Absolutely, 2022 01:34:50.720 --> 01:34:52.720 it's still in the range of outcomes, but he's aging. 2023 01:34:53.199 --> 01:34:54.720 They didn't go out and get any of these other 2024 01:34:54.760 --> 01:34:57.760 wide receivers. We heard them potentially being interested in the 2025 01:34:57.760 --> 01:35:01.039 wide receiver market, but the majority pority of that free 2026 01:35:01.039 --> 01:35:03.920 agent market has come and went and nobody has went 2027 01:35:03.960 --> 01:35:06.840 to Los Angeles. So to me, that tells me that 2028 01:35:06.880 --> 01:35:10.520 they are comfortable enough with their current receiving room that 2029 01:35:10.600 --> 01:35:12.600 they're willing to kind of roll the dice out here. 2030 01:35:13.199 --> 01:35:14.319 I like the fit. 2031 01:35:14.319 --> 01:35:17.760 We saw Darren Waller come off the couch, come off 2032 01:35:17.840 --> 01:35:20.560 the music video film sets where he was out here 2033 01:35:20.560 --> 01:35:24.079 making rap songs and instantly put up multi touchdown games 2034 01:35:24.079 --> 01:35:27.359 there in Miami Ronde. Gasden's going to be able to 2035 01:35:27.359 --> 01:35:29.319 come in and be the number two receiving option. I 2036 01:35:29.319 --> 01:35:32.359 think he is a better receiving option for Mike McDaniel 2037 01:35:32.399 --> 01:35:36.039 offenses than Quintin Johnston is. So I'm willing to throw 2038 01:35:36.039 --> 01:35:38.199 out on Ronde Gadsden out there if I can buy him. 2039 01:35:38.239 --> 01:35:41.479 People have kind of forgot about Ronde, or maybe just 2040 01:35:41.520 --> 01:35:43.720 people are nervous. I'm all for it, and I'll tell 2041 01:35:43.760 --> 01:35:46.880 you what, that opinion will not change for me. Eric, 2042 01:35:47.159 --> 01:35:49.840 Even if they go out on day two, Round two, 2043 01:35:49.960 --> 01:35:52.359 round three and grab another wide receiver, it won't change 2044 01:35:52.359 --> 01:35:53.319 my opinion on Gasden. 2045 01:35:53.520 --> 01:35:58.239 I just got some eminem vibes. Forgot about Aronde right there. 2046 01:35:59.520 --> 01:36:01.520 Somebody's got to mix that up or AI can probably 2047 01:36:01.520 --> 01:36:04.680 do it at this point and uh and remix that song. Okay, 2048 01:36:05.199 --> 01:36:07.560 last one I want to get to here the Dynasty 2049 01:36:07.600 --> 01:36:11.119 action plan on Superflex Rookie one oh one. Okay, Here's 2050 01:36:11.159 --> 01:36:13.000 how I want to frame it. And this is sort 2051 01:36:13.000 --> 01:36:15.319 of like gauging how bad your quarterbacks have to be 2052 01:36:15.439 --> 01:36:18.560 for you to pivot off of Love and and take 2053 01:36:18.600 --> 01:36:22.720 Mendoza over him. For the purposes of this game, Let's 2054 01:36:22.760 --> 01:36:26.119 say you are unable to trade the pick that you 2055 01:36:26.119 --> 01:36:28.319 you would be taking like less than fifty cents on 2056 01:36:28.399 --> 01:36:31.560 the dollar to trade the pick. If your quarterbacks are 2057 01:36:31.560 --> 01:36:35.720 cam Warden Aaron Rodgers, would you take Mendoza over Jeremiah Love. 2058 01:36:38.920 --> 01:36:44.000 Super Flex? You said Reflex, Yes, I'm considering it. But 2059 01:36:44.119 --> 01:36:45.720 I want, I'd want. 2060 01:36:45.680 --> 01:36:47.840 So it have to be worse. It have to be 2061 01:36:47.880 --> 01:36:48.520 worse than that. 2062 01:36:48.560 --> 01:36:51.319 Right, Yeah, like i'd want, I'd want to trade. 2063 01:36:51.520 --> 01:36:53.199 Honestly, what I tell you what i'd do, this is 2064 01:36:53.199 --> 01:36:54.880 my Dynasty brain is i would go to the guy 2065 01:36:54.920 --> 01:36:56.800 at one o two and I'd say, hey, come move up, 2066 01:36:56.880 --> 01:37:00.239 you take Jeremiah. I want something on top because I'm 2067 01:37:00.239 --> 01:37:02.800 moving back, and then I'm just moving back from my 2068 01:37:03.079 --> 01:37:06.000 quarterback anyways. But I honestly, I don't know if there's 2069 01:37:06.640 --> 01:37:10.199 any situation where I'm sitting at the one oh one 2070 01:37:11.079 --> 01:37:13.600 and I'm not taking best player available, and the best 2071 01:37:13.600 --> 01:37:16.840 player available for me is Jeremiah Love. And I put 2072 01:37:16.840 --> 01:37:20.319 this together for you in the pre draft show. Let 2073 01:37:20.319 --> 01:37:22.800 me just give you some data because a lot of 2074 01:37:22.880 --> 01:37:25.399 people look at these running backs and they say running 2075 01:37:25.399 --> 01:37:29.039 backs are bad investments. Right, what if I told you 2076 01:37:29.079 --> 01:37:34.640 that this is data for last year's rookie class Genty, Hampton, Henderson, 2077 01:37:34.760 --> 01:37:38.920 and Judkins how they were valued March twenty twenty five 2078 01:37:39.279 --> 01:37:42.479 versus how they are valued today March twenty twenty six. 2079 01:37:43.279 --> 01:37:45.199 Genty went from the RB three to the RB three 2080 01:37:45.680 --> 01:37:48.960 zero lost value. And I think he underperformed as a rookie. 2081 01:37:49.000 --> 01:37:51.199 A lot of people were probably a little bit disappointed. 2082 01:37:51.800 --> 01:37:53.840 Hampton went from the running back eight to the running 2083 01:37:53.840 --> 01:37:59.560 back six. Improved despite having a year of injury. Henderson 2084 01:38:00.239 --> 01:38:03.560 the biggest disappointment of the entire first round last year, 2085 01:38:04.000 --> 01:38:07.560 running back twelve to running back ten today. Improved despite 2086 01:38:07.600 --> 01:38:11.239 being the biggest disappointment in the first round. Judkins the 2087 01:38:11.319 --> 01:38:16.279 running back fifteen, devastating leg injury, running back eleven today. 2088 01:38:16.680 --> 01:38:19.520 Every first round running back in your rookie draft last 2089 01:38:19.560 --> 01:38:23.399 year improved in their consensus ranking from last year to 2090 01:38:23.479 --> 01:38:24.000 this year. 2091 01:38:24.359 --> 01:38:27.279 Jeremiah Love is the same bet, and. 2092 01:38:29.119 --> 01:38:31.000 There's not a whole lot where he could go to 2093 01:38:31.359 --> 01:38:33.960 up to next year, similar to Genty, from running back 2094 01:38:33.960 --> 01:38:36.439 three to running back three. Right, and maybe it's even 2095 01:38:36.479 --> 01:38:38.279 better for Love next year. By the way, who did 2096 01:38:38.279 --> 01:38:42.680 you view as a better prospect? Love or Genty? I liked. 2097 01:38:43.399 --> 01:38:46.039 I liked Love a little bit more than I liked genty, honestly, 2098 01:38:46.479 --> 01:38:48.239 but I think they're very, very close. Like if I 2099 01:38:48.279 --> 01:38:52.079 had to merge last year's prospects with this year's, they 2100 01:38:52.079 --> 01:38:53.079 would be the same tier. 2101 01:38:53.439 --> 01:38:58.079 Okay, do you if you did like Love slightly better 2102 01:38:58.159 --> 01:39:01.399 than Genty? Who was the last fast running back prospect 2103 01:39:01.479 --> 01:39:03.680 that you liked better than Jeremiah. 2104 01:39:03.319 --> 01:39:05.560 Love, Bijon. 2105 01:39:07.159 --> 01:39:10.119 It would be Bejon and I was very high at 2106 01:39:10.159 --> 01:39:12.319 the time. It's easy to people to say in hindsight, 2107 01:39:12.399 --> 01:39:15.159 I was very high on Gibbs, but you can go 2108 01:39:15.239 --> 01:39:18.239 check the receipts as well on my Gibbs takes. I 2109 01:39:18.319 --> 01:39:20.560 liked him a lot. I like Love more than I 2110 01:39:20.640 --> 01:39:21.199 liked Gibbs. 2111 01:39:21.920 --> 01:39:25.159 Okay, interesting, very very and I'm glad we're getting this 2112 01:39:25.159 --> 01:39:27.000 out of the way right now because I don't have 2113 01:39:27.079 --> 01:39:29.840 Jeremiah Love on the rundown because he always just seems 2114 01:39:29.840 --> 01:39:31.720 to weave his way into the conversation anyway. 2115 01:39:31.800 --> 01:39:34.239 So well, and let me give you a little bit 2116 01:39:34.279 --> 01:39:36.159 of context too. And I'm sorry if you're hearing the 2117 01:39:36.159 --> 01:39:37.960 train horn. We live next to the train tracks, and 2118 01:39:38.000 --> 01:39:42.800 I it is what it is. But I like Love 2119 01:39:43.000 --> 01:39:45.079 more than to those guys a little bit more for 2120 01:39:45.159 --> 01:39:48.800 fantasy football because of the receiving ability. I think he 2121 01:39:48.960 --> 01:39:54.199 is a insanely talented receiver out of the backfield. He 2122 01:39:54.239 --> 01:39:59.239 gives me CMC level receiving ability vibes with his prospect profile. 2123 01:39:59.359 --> 01:40:01.640 So if you're playing in a PBR league, we know 2124 01:40:01.680 --> 01:40:03.399 that's where you make your money. That's the bread and 2125 01:40:03.439 --> 01:40:06.479 butter of rookie running backs or just running back production 2126 01:40:06.520 --> 01:40:09.640 in general. So for me, that's why he's a little 2127 01:40:09.720 --> 01:40:12.600 bit more than where I had gent because I think 2128 01:40:12.640 --> 01:40:14.920 he can go out there and be a guy that 2129 01:40:15.000 --> 01:40:17.479 catches sixty footballs out of the backfield. 2130 01:40:18.760 --> 01:40:23.039 I think year one it could be very exciting. You know, 2131 01:40:23.239 --> 01:40:26.319 here's the thing in redraft right now for Jeremiah Love, 2132 01:40:27.079 --> 01:40:30.600 he is not going until well now, he's actually moved 2133 01:40:30.640 --> 01:40:32.640 up now he's running back nine at this point, he's 2134 01:40:32.680 --> 01:40:34.640 going like the two h four so early to mid 2135 01:40:34.720 --> 01:40:36.880 second round. But it would not surprise me at all 2136 01:40:36.920 --> 01:40:39.039 to see him move ahead of Hampton. I could see 2137 01:40:39.079 --> 01:40:40.840 him move ahead of genty as well. I don't know 2138 01:40:40.880 --> 01:40:44.279 about James Cook. Now we're getting to craziness there a 2139 01:40:44.319 --> 01:40:46.560 little bit. But you never know, it only takes one player. 2140 01:40:48.479 --> 01:40:50.720 Love is the one running back we won't talk about 2141 01:40:50.720 --> 01:40:52.319 in this next segment. I want to talk about some 2142 01:40:52.319 --> 01:40:54.399 of these other rookie running backs with you get your 2143 01:40:54.479 --> 01:40:56.039 quick take on them, and then we'll get into the 2144 01:40:56.039 --> 01:40:58.439 receivers and if there's time tight ends as well. You 2145 01:40:58.439 --> 01:41:02.119 were watching FFPC Inside Access with Andrew Mott from the 2146 01:41:02.199 --> 01:41:05.479 League f FB and of course Dynasty Nerds. We are 2147 01:41:05.520 --> 01:41:07.439 going to take a quick break. When we come back, 2148 01:41:07.640 --> 01:41:10.279 we'll talk about those rookies and so much more on 2149 01:41:10.520 --> 01:41:14.199 f FPC Insider Access. I am Eric Balkman. Do not 2150 01:41:14.479 --> 01:41:16.800 go anywhere as I try to find the break. 2151 01:41:16.840 --> 01:42:04.000 Here we go, sorry, hitting the home stretch of FFPC 2152 01:42:04.119 --> 01:42:05.840 Insider Access tonight. 2153 01:42:05.880 --> 01:42:10.199 Andrew Mott from Dynasty Nerds and the League FFP. 2154 01:42:10.359 --> 01:42:14.000 At Andrew too True on X Where did that moniker 2155 01:42:14.079 --> 01:42:14.439 come from? 2156 01:42:14.479 --> 01:42:16.640 Andrew Man, that's high school, dude. 2157 01:42:17.359 --> 01:42:19.520 It was just I don't know why. In high school 2158 01:42:19.600 --> 01:42:22.560 I made the handle. I played basketball. All my teammates 2159 01:42:22.560 --> 01:42:25.399 called me too true. That was just it rhymed, It 2160 01:42:25.439 --> 01:42:26.880 made sense and it stuck forever. 2161 01:42:27.159 --> 01:42:29.279 Nice. I like it. I always like because there's a 2162 01:42:29.279 --> 01:42:30.960 lot of people out there. I just used my name 2163 01:42:31.000 --> 01:42:33.920 because I'm boring in Vanilla, but for X. But I 2164 01:42:33.960 --> 01:42:36.560 always like hearing the backstory, like I don't know if 2165 01:42:36.560 --> 01:42:40.359 you know. Dan Williamson host of the Stack Hunters podcast 2166 01:42:40.439 --> 01:42:43.720 with Player Profiler. He is a longtime high stakes player. 2167 01:42:44.079 --> 01:42:49.680 His handle is over hyped sleeper, but he took out 2168 01:42:49.800 --> 01:42:53.680 the final e of Sleeper, so it's over hyped sleeper, 2169 01:42:53.920 --> 01:42:56.760 you know, and I always I forgot about the story 2170 01:42:56.880 --> 01:42:59.640 like several times, but he said like it was one 2171 01:42:59.680 --> 01:43:02.199 of those things where overhyped sleeper was taken and he 2172 01:43:02.319 --> 01:43:05.239 just decided to do that one where he randomly decided 2173 01:43:05.279 --> 01:43:07.479 to take out that e hey to each their own 2174 01:43:07.720 --> 01:43:09.439 whatever who might have judged, And now it's part of 2175 01:43:09.479 --> 01:43:11.840 his brand, so he can never change it. All Right, 2176 01:43:12.319 --> 01:43:14.720 let's get into some of these running backs. I don't 2177 01:43:14.760 --> 01:43:16.800 know how much time. Well, we'll have the touch on 2178 01:43:16.880 --> 01:43:18.680 all these guys. We'll get through as many as we 2179 01:43:18.720 --> 01:43:22.760 could get through. I remember back in January February, it 2180 01:43:22.840 --> 01:43:25.520 seemed like Jonah Coleman was the guy that everybody was 2181 01:43:25.520 --> 01:43:27.560 talking about being the running back two in this class. 2182 01:43:27.960 --> 01:43:30.960 That seems to have faded a little bit. And I'm 2183 01:43:31.000 --> 01:43:33.640 wondering if if there's something that, you know, what the 2184 01:43:33.720 --> 01:43:36.279 cause of that would be. Can we poke some holes 2185 01:43:36.319 --> 01:43:38.239 in Jonah Coleman and why he may or may not 2186 01:43:38.319 --> 01:43:39.720 be successful at the next level. 2187 01:43:40.520 --> 01:43:42.760 Yeah, I mean, you look at Jonah Coleman's profile and 2188 01:43:42.880 --> 01:43:44.960 right now he's my running back for over in my 2189 01:43:45.119 --> 01:43:48.600 rankings for Dynasty, And a lot of this is questions 2190 01:43:48.640 --> 01:43:52.199 about the athleticism. I just have some real concerns about 2191 01:43:52.199 --> 01:43:55.079 how fast he actually is. He's not a player that 2192 01:43:56.000 --> 01:43:58.159 did anything really at the combine, didn't run his forty 2193 01:43:58.199 --> 01:44:00.920 yard dash, didn't give us any of the athletics testing. 2194 01:44:01.079 --> 01:44:02.760 All we saw was the bench press where he hit 2195 01:44:02.800 --> 01:44:06.000 twenty two reps. And the strength was never the question. 2196 01:44:06.159 --> 01:44:08.279 The question has been the athleticism, and you've been ducking 2197 01:44:08.720 --> 01:44:10.840 you know, some of that testing. So for me, that's 2198 01:44:10.880 --> 01:44:13.560 been the biggest question. You even look at some of 2199 01:44:13.640 --> 01:44:15.000 the other stuff, like if you want to look at 2200 01:44:15.000 --> 01:44:17.560 some of the advanced analytics for him, we look at 2201 01:44:17.640 --> 01:44:21.399 things over on FFB Draft Kit for some of the 2202 01:44:22.600 --> 01:44:26.560 main criteria that does translate to potential running back one 2203 01:44:26.600 --> 01:44:30.000 success at the next level, things like running dominator rating, 2204 01:44:30.279 --> 01:44:32.319 rushing share, how much of that rushing share did you 2205 01:44:32.399 --> 01:44:35.199 have for your collegiate football team, rushing yard percentage, how 2206 01:44:35.279 --> 01:44:37.920 much did you account for a lot of these, he's 2207 01:44:38.000 --> 01:44:41.640 grading out as a poor runner from that rushing share, 2208 01:44:41.640 --> 01:44:43.800 from the rushing yards percentage, from the total touch share. 2209 01:44:44.479 --> 01:44:46.520 It's really not a lot here to like for the 2210 01:44:46.600 --> 01:44:50.279 most part. But I say all of that to tell 2211 01:44:50.319 --> 01:44:52.000 you that it's not the end all be all to 2212 01:44:52.119 --> 01:44:55.239 have the advanced analytics checked off either. He just to 2213 01:44:55.359 --> 01:44:58.720 me feels like a guy where athleticism has been the 2214 01:44:58.760 --> 01:45:01.720 biggest question. You haven't answered those questions for us in 2215 01:45:01.760 --> 01:45:04.560 the pre draft process, and so by default you are 2216 01:45:04.640 --> 01:45:05.800 now sliding down the board. 2217 01:45:06.359 --> 01:45:10.680 The pro day for Emma Johnson actually was pretty good. 2218 01:45:11.520 --> 01:45:14.119 He shaved depending upon you know, how much you know, 2219 01:45:14.239 --> 01:45:16.840 We don't know exactly whatever. There's twenty nine teams there, 2220 01:45:16.880 --> 01:45:18.800 so we don't know exactly what he was timed at 2221 01:45:19.159 --> 01:45:21.520 by all these different teams. But he heard that he 2222 01:45:21.600 --> 01:45:24.159 shaved basically a tenth of the second off down in 2223 01:45:24.199 --> 01:45:26.479 the four four five, four four six range. He was 2224 01:45:26.520 --> 01:45:28.720 at four five six at the combine. Quite frankly, Emma 2225 01:45:28.800 --> 01:45:32.840 Johnson's combine was not all that great athletically in any 2226 01:45:33.039 --> 01:45:36.159 of the drills that they did there. But I'm wondering 2227 01:45:36.199 --> 01:45:39.479 how much you bump up Johnson now that we know 2228 01:45:40.079 --> 01:45:42.199 that there's a very real possibility maybe he just had 2229 01:45:42.199 --> 01:45:44.520 a bad day at the combine and he actually is 2230 01:45:44.640 --> 01:45:45.239 faster than that. 2231 01:45:46.159 --> 01:45:48.079 Yeah, well, I guess it depends on what you see 2232 01:45:48.159 --> 01:45:49.960 is bumping up. Because to me, he's my running back 2233 01:45:50.039 --> 01:45:52.800 five in the class. I liked him beforehand. I thought 2234 01:45:53.239 --> 01:45:57.039 he looked way faster and way more explosive on tape 2235 01:45:57.079 --> 01:45:59.399 than he went out and showed. And at times, you know, 2236 01:45:59.520 --> 01:46:00.840 guys can go out and have a bad day and 2237 01:46:00.880 --> 01:46:03.680 the testing doesn't look right, and that's what happens. Recent 2238 01:46:03.760 --> 01:46:06.680 example of this is Bucky Irving a couple of years ago, 2239 01:46:07.000 --> 01:46:11.279 goes out to the Combine, horrible day, everybody's biggest faller 2240 01:46:11.399 --> 01:46:14.279 from the NFL Combine. Finds himself in day three, in 2241 01:46:14.279 --> 01:46:17.119 the right situation, gets on the football field and oh yeah, shocker, 2242 01:46:17.239 --> 01:46:20.119 this guy's actually kind of good at football. I think 2243 01:46:20.159 --> 01:46:23.560 we could see a similar pathway for Emmitt Johnson. And 2244 01:46:23.680 --> 01:46:27.319 I talked about the analytics for Jonah Coleman. Emmitt Johnson's 2245 01:46:27.319 --> 01:46:30.159 are really really nice. He checks a lot of the 2246 01:46:30.199 --> 01:46:33.880 boxes there, comes in as a great score on seven 2247 01:46:33.960 --> 01:46:36.880 of the eight analytics that I look at. So that's 2248 01:46:36.960 --> 01:46:38.560 exactly where we want to see him at. And he 2249 01:46:38.720 --> 01:46:42.439 carried the workload there in twenty twenty five for Nebraska 2250 01:46:42.720 --> 01:46:45.079 almost fifteen hundred yards as a rusher. 2251 01:46:45.560 --> 01:46:46.319 I think he's. 2252 01:46:46.279 --> 01:46:48.640 Proven as a guy who can carry the workload if 2253 01:46:48.680 --> 01:46:51.520 given the opportunity. If I were to point towards an 2254 01:46:51.600 --> 01:46:54.279 example of what I could see him doing at the 2255 01:46:54.359 --> 01:46:58.720 next level. Think early career Chase Brown and the evolution 2256 01:46:58.880 --> 01:46:59.920 of what Chase Brown is now. 2257 01:47:01.199 --> 01:47:03.880 I uh, I, that's exciting to think about. By the way, 2258 01:47:04.399 --> 01:47:07.359 I think the other thing with athleticism in the combine 2259 01:47:07.560 --> 01:47:09.399 that we have to talk about is Mike Washington Junior. 2260 01:47:10.520 --> 01:47:14.520 What's the likelihood in your opinion that in a flat 2261 01:47:14.800 --> 01:47:18.039 running back class outside of love, what's the likelihood that 2262 01:47:18.199 --> 01:47:21.319 he is actually that his athleticism carries him to being 2263 01:47:21.720 --> 01:47:25.399 the second picked running back in this year's draft in Pittsburgh. 2264 01:47:26.560 --> 01:47:28.359 It could very well he could very well end up 2265 01:47:28.359 --> 01:47:31.039 the second guy. I kind of have it bunched right now. 2266 01:47:31.760 --> 01:47:34.880 I have three running backs in the same tier that 2267 01:47:35.039 --> 01:47:38.199 I think, ultimately for me landing spot in draft capital 2268 01:47:38.199 --> 01:47:41.800 are going to separate. But today Jendarium Price is my 2269 01:47:41.960 --> 01:47:45.119 RB two, Mike Washington's my RB three, and Joah Coleman's 2270 01:47:45.119 --> 01:47:48.000 my RB four. I have them all almost back to 2271 01:47:48.119 --> 01:47:51.600 back to back in my rankings thirteen, fourteen and sixteen 2272 01:47:51.760 --> 01:47:54.520 for them overall. So none of these guys guys that 2273 01:47:54.560 --> 01:47:56.359 I'd be looking at in the first round of my 2274 01:47:56.479 --> 01:48:00.960 rookie drafts. But I today have jadarium price. There could 2275 01:48:01.000 --> 01:48:03.239 Mike Washington jump in with the right landing spot. 2276 01:48:03.319 --> 01:48:07.039 Absolutely, landing spot is going to be huge for this class. 2277 01:48:07.039 --> 01:48:08.800 I mean, you just talked about how close these guys 2278 01:48:08.840 --> 01:48:12.279 are bunched up and obviously dependent upon where they go 2279 01:48:13.199 --> 01:48:15.439 that there could be a significant separation with a lot 2280 01:48:15.479 --> 01:48:16.079 of these players. 2281 01:48:16.640 --> 01:48:18.560 Stick with me on this one. I don't know if 2282 01:48:18.600 --> 01:48:21.279 my logic is correct. Penn State running backs. 2283 01:48:21.840 --> 01:48:26.000 Nick Singleton is an incredibly better athlete than k Tron Allen. 2284 01:48:26.000 --> 01:48:27.520 I don't think anybody would disagree with that. 2285 01:48:29.479 --> 01:48:33.439 Is there something to the effect of liking Allen better 2286 01:48:33.600 --> 01:48:36.600 at the next level because he was able to put 2287 01:48:36.680 --> 01:48:40.239 up all the numbers he did with a lesser athletic profile. 2288 01:48:41.079 --> 01:48:43.840 He could see he had the vision right, he knew 2289 01:48:43.960 --> 01:48:47.079 the nuances of playing the running back position. Does that 2290 01:48:47.279 --> 01:48:50.920 carry over better to the NFL than Nick Singleton's skill set, 2291 01:48:51.479 --> 01:48:55.640 which is not vision, it's not nuanced play, it's simply 2292 01:48:55.800 --> 01:48:59.279 out athleting the guys that at the collegiate level that 2293 01:48:59.399 --> 01:49:01.399 you won't be able to do that at the pro level. 2294 01:49:01.800 --> 01:49:04.119 Your thoughts on that, because I don't quite Frankly, I 2295 01:49:04.119 --> 01:49:05.800 haven't made up my mind if that's the correct line 2296 01:49:05.880 --> 01:49:06.279 of thinking. 2297 01:49:06.520 --> 01:49:07.720 But there's a narrative out there. 2298 01:49:08.199 --> 01:49:10.079 It definitely is a narrative, and I think there is 2299 01:49:10.159 --> 01:49:12.119 validity to it. I mean, you look at both of 2300 01:49:12.199 --> 01:49:15.119 those guys and it is yin and yang with their 2301 01:49:15.199 --> 01:49:17.439 play styles and that's why they work so well at 2302 01:49:17.520 --> 01:49:21.039 Penn State together. A lot of my questions with Nick 2303 01:49:21.079 --> 01:49:26.039 Singleton are, what the hell happened at Penn State in 2304 01:49:26.279 --> 01:49:30.079 twenty twenty five, and that trickles to Drew Alar, That 2305 01:49:30.239 --> 01:49:34.079 trickles to you know, head coach that was fired everybody. 2306 01:49:34.399 --> 01:49:38.600 Yeah, awful, awful twenty twenty five. So I have questions. 2307 01:49:39.159 --> 01:49:43.279 But where a year removed from where Nick Singleton was 2308 01:49:43.319 --> 01:49:45.079 being talked about as the RB four or the RB 2309 01:49:45.279 --> 01:49:48.319 five in a very good running back draft class. 2310 01:49:48.600 --> 01:49:51.920 So the talent is obviously there. I have Singleton over 2311 01:49:52.079 --> 01:49:54.760 k Trin Allen in my rankings. They're twenty three and 2312 01:49:54.880 --> 01:49:57.199 twenty six. I think if you're trying to play the 2313 01:49:57.399 --> 01:50:03.439 NFL game, Katerian Allen is the safer NFL football player bet. Now, 2314 01:50:03.479 --> 01:50:07.479 if I'm turning on my Dynasty Fantasy football brain, Nick 2315 01:50:07.520 --> 01:50:09.960 Singleton's the bet I want to make because the athleticism 2316 01:50:10.000 --> 01:50:13.800 and the explosion translates to big plays and those scormy points. 2317 01:50:14.079 --> 01:50:15.399 He's a much more fun pick. 2318 01:50:15.680 --> 01:50:15.720 Like. 2319 01:50:15.920 --> 01:50:17.800 I think that's what it's gonna come down to for me. 2320 01:50:17.880 --> 01:50:20.239 If landing spot is similar, I think it's more fun 2321 01:50:20.359 --> 01:50:22.680 to draft a guy like Nick Singleton, who's this big 2322 01:50:22.720 --> 01:50:25.520 pedigree guy. Right Like, even in high school and his 2323 01:50:25.640 --> 01:50:27.319 freshman you're in Penn State, he was awesome. I think 2324 01:50:27.359 --> 01:50:31.159 he's just more fun player. Shifting over to receivers right now, 2325 01:50:31.439 --> 01:50:33.560 I'm gonna ask you the question that you've been asked 2326 01:50:34.640 --> 01:50:35.439 numerous times. 2327 01:50:35.600 --> 01:50:38.039 Be it on x be it on your. 2328 01:50:38.000 --> 01:50:42.279 YouTube channel, be it by be it by Jagger. The 2329 01:50:42.600 --> 01:50:47.079 top three receivers Levin, Tate, Tyson. I'm sure you're gonna 2330 01:50:47.079 --> 01:50:50.000 tell me. It's very close between these guys, but which 2331 01:50:50.039 --> 01:50:52.319 one do you like best? Man? 2332 01:50:53.159 --> 01:50:56.920 I have recently struggled with my rankings, but I have 2333 01:50:57.159 --> 01:51:00.640 chosen to stick with my gut and keep going with 2334 01:51:00.720 --> 01:51:02.479 what I've been seeing from the early days of my 2335 01:51:02.560 --> 01:51:06.079 film studies. I like Tyson the most, man. I like 2336 01:51:06.199 --> 01:51:07.760 Jordan Tyson the most, and I know a lot of 2337 01:51:07.800 --> 01:51:10.880 people are scared of Jordan Tyson because of the injuries. 2338 01:51:11.800 --> 01:51:13.640 The ceiling is the highest of all of these players, 2339 01:51:13.760 --> 01:51:15.600 I think he's the best route runner of the group. 2340 01:51:15.720 --> 01:51:18.039 I think he is insane above the rim, can go 2341 01:51:18.159 --> 01:51:20.560 up and make a bunch of acrobatic catchers. I think 2342 01:51:20.600 --> 01:51:24.199 he's a quarterback's best friend. There's just nothing in his 2343 01:51:24.520 --> 01:51:29.760 tape really, aside from occasionally struggling against press coverage against 2344 01:51:29.800 --> 01:51:31.760 some bigger dbs that might get hands on him a 2345 01:51:31.760 --> 01:51:34.239 little bit early in the route. That is the only 2346 01:51:34.359 --> 01:51:37.640 thing that I see, aside from medicals, that gets me 2347 01:51:37.800 --> 01:51:41.079 nervous about him. Everything else, as far as on the 2348 01:51:41.159 --> 01:51:44.640 football field play and ability, Jordan Tyson to me, is 2349 01:51:44.720 --> 01:51:47.600 the best one of the group. They are all back 2350 01:51:47.640 --> 01:51:50.359 to back to back. It's three four five for me 2351 01:51:50.479 --> 01:51:52.720 and my rankings. That's not a surprise to anybody. 2352 01:51:52.800 --> 01:51:53.199 We know that. 2353 01:51:53.840 --> 01:51:55.960 But Carnel Tate would be number two and Lemon would 2354 01:51:55.960 --> 01:51:56.840 be three. You know. 2355 01:51:57.039 --> 01:52:00.359 The regarding the injury thing, and I'm almost sick of 2356 01:52:00.479 --> 01:52:02.840 saying this because I say it all the time. You're 2357 01:52:02.880 --> 01:52:07.800 talking about an AACL like the triple cl tear. I 2358 01:52:07.880 --> 01:52:11.000 don't know how that's predictive of like that this is 2359 01:52:11.039 --> 01:52:13.479 going to happen again, or it's going to cause other injuries. 2360 01:52:14.039 --> 01:52:16.680 A freak collar bone. I mean, that can happen to anybody, 2361 01:52:16.840 --> 01:52:20.279 Aaron Rodgers, Mike Evans, whatever, like it happens. I don't 2362 01:52:20.279 --> 01:52:23.560 think that's something. The stuff that I'd be concerned about 2363 01:52:24.000 --> 01:52:27.279 is the hamstring stuff, the soft tissue injuries and what did. 2364 01:52:27.239 --> 01:52:27.880 That set them back? 2365 01:52:27.960 --> 01:52:30.119 Like he basically missed half a season, a third of 2366 01:52:30.159 --> 01:52:34.159 a season right around there this past year. It's hard 2367 01:52:34.239 --> 01:52:36.960 for me when I've seen bring up Adrian Peterson again. 2368 01:52:37.439 --> 01:52:41.279 I that guy was hurt all the time at Oklahoma 2369 01:52:41.720 --> 01:52:43.720 and he never got hurt in the pros, you know. 2370 01:52:44.319 --> 01:52:48.079 So it's very, very difficult for me to draft scared 2371 01:52:48.560 --> 01:52:51.000 and take a guy who I believe is a lesser 2372 01:52:51.079 --> 01:52:55.399 prospect Lemon or Taate than Tyson in drafts. Now landing 2373 01:52:55.439 --> 01:52:57.600 spot could change this, and I reserve the right to 2374 01:52:57.640 --> 01:52:59.279 change my mind because that's how three of these guys 2375 01:52:59.319 --> 01:53:01.640 are close to him as far as I'm concerned. But 2376 01:53:01.720 --> 01:53:02.119 I'm with you. 2377 01:53:02.279 --> 01:53:03.000 Tyson's my guy. 2378 01:53:03.800 --> 01:53:05.960 He's I hit his game, man. I'll just say his 2379 01:53:06.079 --> 01:53:08.760 game reminds me so much of Garrett Wilson. 2380 01:53:09.439 --> 01:53:14.439 Oh there you go. Which who was it? Was it 2381 01:53:14.600 --> 01:53:16.760 Nikhil Harry that came out of Arizona State. Was he 2382 01:53:16.840 --> 01:53:20.359 actually the last big Arizona State receiver? And I probably 2383 01:53:20.439 --> 01:53:21.520 just jinx Tyson by. 2384 01:53:22.359 --> 01:53:26.159 Yeah, Harry or Ayyuk. I think you could count Arizona State. 2385 01:53:27.079 --> 01:53:28.600 Moving on to Concepcio and I said, I was going 2386 01:53:28.640 --> 01:53:30.760 to ask you about him later. You're high on him. 2387 01:53:31.399 --> 01:53:33.359 He dropped a lot of passes. Drop rate was not 2388 01:53:33.479 --> 01:53:34.399 great in college. 2389 01:53:35.239 --> 01:53:37.880 Are you of the belief that he is that's something 2390 01:53:37.920 --> 01:53:40.239 that will be corrected at the next level, or are 2391 01:53:40.279 --> 01:53:42.920 you of the belief that because he does everything else 2392 01:53:43.000 --> 01:53:44.720 so well, you're just willing to put. 2393 01:53:44.640 --> 01:53:47.039 Up with that. I'm willing to put up with drops man. 2394 01:53:47.239 --> 01:53:49.239 Drops are one of the few things that I think 2395 01:53:49.520 --> 01:53:53.880 are over analyzed by a lot of fantasy football analysts. 2396 01:53:53.920 --> 01:53:56.319 People talk about drops, this drop that you know, how 2397 01:53:56.399 --> 01:53:59.319 many drops guys like Deontay Johnson and some of these 2398 01:53:59.319 --> 01:54:03.079 other guys have I promise you go just for people 2399 01:54:03.119 --> 01:54:05.680 at home, just for fun, go type in like who 2400 01:54:05.760 --> 01:54:08.159 dropped the most footballs. You're gonna see some of the 2401 01:54:08.319 --> 01:54:12.039 highest performing players at the top of those lists. There's 2402 01:54:12.039 --> 01:54:13.399 gonna be guys that you're like, wow, he was a 2403 01:54:13.439 --> 01:54:15.479 wide receiver. One he finished as a wide receiver one, 2404 01:54:15.600 --> 01:54:17.840 and he's at the top of the drops list. It's 2405 01:54:18.000 --> 01:54:20.760 just it happens when the football's coming your way. There 2406 01:54:20.880 --> 01:54:24.720 are concentration drops with Casey concepcion where it does show 2407 01:54:24.800 --> 01:54:28.239 up on film. But to me, Man, he has checked 2408 01:54:28.239 --> 01:54:31.279 a lot of the boxes. I was looking for reasons 2409 01:54:31.319 --> 01:54:34.239 to get lower on KC. Where Hey, if he comes 2410 01:54:34.279 --> 01:54:36.000 in and he runs a little bit slower than I 2411 01:54:36.079 --> 01:54:40.000 thought he could run at a Pro Day or a combine, 2412 01:54:40.239 --> 01:54:41.760 or if he comes in and he's a little bit 2413 01:54:41.920 --> 01:54:45.600 smaller than he was actually listed out at college. These 2414 01:54:45.640 --> 01:54:47.960 things haven't happened now, given he didn't run at the combine. 2415 01:54:48.000 --> 01:54:51.039 But he's a player who listed a true five to 2416 01:54:51.079 --> 01:54:53.720 eleven still has the height at one or the way 2417 01:54:53.760 --> 01:54:56.720 at one ninety. Everything here is good, man, like I'm 2418 01:54:56.760 --> 01:54:59.000 trying to find ways. And then Matt Harmon. I respect 2419 01:54:59.000 --> 01:55:01.880 Matt Harmon's work. A lot comes out with how successful 2420 01:55:01.920 --> 01:55:03.640 he's been against man and zone and some of the 2421 01:55:03.720 --> 01:55:06.880 other stuff. He's my number seven player, man, and he 2422 01:55:07.000 --> 01:55:08.039 ain't moving right now. 2423 01:55:09.039 --> 01:55:13.319 The list of drops last season in the NFL number eleven, 2424 01:55:13.439 --> 01:55:18.079 Christian McCaffrey, number eight, Tenero McMillan, number seven, Cortland, Sutton 2425 01:55:18.199 --> 01:55:21.359 six with Ceedee Lamb five with that BUCA, and then 2426 01:55:21.399 --> 01:55:23.920 the top two number one and two Jamison Williams and 2427 01:55:23.920 --> 01:55:27.840 Amanath Saint Brown for Detroit. Good players, right, hey, people 2428 01:55:27.920 --> 01:55:31.159 about these players. Ain't nobody talking about that they don't 2429 01:55:31.239 --> 01:55:33.720 like him because of the drops. Nobody's mentioning that with 2430 01:55:33.800 --> 01:55:34.399 any of these guys. 2431 01:55:34.520 --> 01:55:36.920 It's overheted, man, It's overheted. And you know what a 2432 01:55:36.960 --> 01:55:38.640 lot of people think Casey is just going to be 2433 01:55:38.680 --> 01:55:41.359 a slot guy. I think he can play outside too. 2434 01:55:41.560 --> 01:55:43.560 I think he showed that at Texas A and M, 2435 01:55:43.600 --> 01:55:44.720 and I think he can be a perfect Z. 2436 01:55:45.960 --> 01:55:49.319 I have to bring up Denzel Boston here. I don't 2437 01:55:49.319 --> 01:55:51.439 have a whole lot of thoughts on this guy. I 2438 01:55:51.520 --> 01:55:54.720 think he's exciting. I think that, you know, coming from 2439 01:55:54.760 --> 01:55:57.560 this Washington team that where he played with some pretty 2440 01:55:57.600 --> 01:56:01.479 talented receivers, I'm not really concerned about the late breakout 2441 01:56:01.600 --> 01:56:04.399 or whatever. And I do think that this guy has 2442 01:56:04.479 --> 01:56:08.479 the potential to be a significant four or five six 2443 01:56:08.600 --> 01:56:11.319 year number one receiver ALPHA on a team. 2444 01:56:12.680 --> 01:56:14.960 Yeah, I mean I think he definitely can you see 2445 01:56:15.000 --> 01:56:17.399 the things in his profile that you want to see 2446 01:56:17.520 --> 01:56:22.199 consistently improved statistically year in and year out, more touchdowns, 2447 01:56:22.800 --> 01:56:25.560 more receiving yards, more receptions, all of that stuff every 2448 01:56:25.600 --> 01:56:28.800 single season, despite like you said, battling with some of 2449 01:56:28.840 --> 01:56:30.960 these good receivers that we've seen come out of Washington 2450 01:56:31.000 --> 01:56:33.439 over the last couple of years, guys like Jalen McMillan 2451 01:56:33.479 --> 01:56:36.319 and Romo Dunse and even guys in this draft class 2452 01:56:36.319 --> 01:56:39.680 who played at Washington years prior, Jeremy Bernard who went 2453 01:56:39.680 --> 01:56:42.399 out and had a great season at Alabama and overlooked 2454 01:56:42.880 --> 01:56:45.560 or kind of overplayed. A guy like Ryan Williams too 2455 01:56:45.640 --> 01:56:47.720 this year. I think you see a lot of the 2456 01:56:47.760 --> 01:56:50.760 analytics with him, and he's interesting. He's currently my wide 2457 01:56:50.800 --> 01:56:52.840 receiver five man, just a guy who's going to go 2458 01:56:52.880 --> 01:56:55.319 out and play outside, play on the boundary, be a 2459 01:56:55.359 --> 01:56:59.840 red zone threat. My comp for Denzel Boston has been Courtland's. 2460 01:57:00.279 --> 01:57:02.760 We've talked about him on the show today. He feels 2461 01:57:02.840 --> 01:57:05.399 Courtland Sutton ish to me, and you saw Courtland Sutton 2462 01:57:05.439 --> 01:57:08.079 also go in that early second round of his draft class. 2463 01:57:08.479 --> 01:57:10.680 I think right in the same draft capital range for 2464 01:57:10.840 --> 01:57:11.600 Denzel Boston. 2465 01:57:12.560 --> 01:57:14.600 Two more questions I want to ask you before we 2466 01:57:14.640 --> 01:57:18.520 get out of here. Sadiq versus Eli Stowers. I said, 2467 01:57:18.560 --> 01:57:20.760 it seems like Stowars is picking up steam right now. 2468 01:57:21.159 --> 01:57:24.119 How number one, you have Sadiq ranked ahead of Stours 2469 01:57:24.199 --> 01:57:25.159 and how close are they? 2470 01:57:26.039 --> 01:57:30.399 Yeah, I have Sadique over Stours and really it's not 2471 01:57:30.600 --> 01:57:33.600 that far. I have them both as first round rookie picks. 2472 01:57:33.720 --> 01:57:36.439 Sadik is my number six overall player. Eli Stowers is 2473 01:57:36.479 --> 01:57:39.079 my number eleven overall player in my Dynasty rankings right now, 2474 01:57:39.159 --> 01:57:41.119 those are tight end premium, so keep that in mind. 2475 01:57:42.039 --> 01:57:46.840 But Eli Stowers, the only thing that I dislike about 2476 01:57:46.920 --> 01:57:51.279 him more than Sadiq is the fact that he is 2477 01:57:51.520 --> 01:57:57.199 not a good blocker. When you watch the film, it shows. 2478 01:57:57.359 --> 01:57:59.279 I mean, this is a guy who's still new to 2479 01:57:59.359 --> 01:58:02.000 the position. He converted from a quarterback just a few 2480 01:58:02.079 --> 01:58:04.239 years ago to go play tight end, so he's only 2481 01:58:04.279 --> 01:58:05.760 been playing tight end for about two two and a 2482 01:58:05.800 --> 01:58:08.359 half seasons right now. When you put him out there 2483 01:58:08.359 --> 01:58:10.920 against some of these bigger linebackers, these edge rushers, he 2484 01:58:11.000 --> 01:58:13.880 gets blown up. So he's a player that I could 2485 01:58:13.960 --> 01:58:17.239 see being a move tight end. But my worry is 2486 01:58:17.319 --> 01:58:20.720 that he ends up like Dalton Kincaid, where Dalton Kincaid 2487 01:58:21.119 --> 01:58:23.840 great receiving threat. We've seen the upside with him coming 2488 01:58:23.880 --> 01:58:28.399 out of Utah. But what happens to Dalton Kincaid exhaustingly 2489 01:58:28.760 --> 01:58:31.079 at the NFL level. They take him out because Dawson 2490 01:58:31.159 --> 01:58:33.359 Knox is the better blocker, and Dawson Knox goes out 2491 01:58:33.359 --> 01:58:35.840 there and plays on third downs or plays on rushing 2492 01:58:35.880 --> 01:58:38.439 downs and things like that. I could see that happening 2493 01:58:38.520 --> 01:58:41.560 with Stours. Sadik is one of the best blocking tight 2494 01:58:41.680 --> 01:58:44.479 ends that I've seen in all of my time scouting, 2495 01:58:44.680 --> 01:58:47.800 and I just don't see a situation where Sidik ever 2496 01:58:47.880 --> 01:58:50.479 comes off the football field aside from he's tired. So 2497 01:58:50.800 --> 01:58:52.479 that is the one thing that I think kind of 2498 01:58:52.560 --> 01:58:55.000 props him above is that I don't think he's ever 2499 01:58:55.079 --> 01:58:57.359 coming off the field, and he has the athleticism to 2500 01:58:57.399 --> 01:58:58.520 take the top off the defense. 2501 01:58:58.800 --> 01:59:01.479 If Stours was as good of a blocker as Sadiq, 2502 01:59:01.680 --> 01:59:03.960 or if Sadiq was also as bad of a blocker 2503 01:59:04.000 --> 01:59:06.079 as Stowars, like, if they're equal in that category, would 2504 01:59:06.079 --> 01:59:07.640 you have Sto Wars out of Sidique? 2505 01:59:08.560 --> 01:59:12.319 Stowers is the better receiver? Okay, So yes, I think 2506 01:59:12.359 --> 01:59:18.000 if he was. The receiving chops of Stowars are insanely impressive. 2507 01:59:18.359 --> 01:59:21.359 And I remember early days back in our I'll let 2508 01:59:21.399 --> 01:59:22.960 you guys behind the scenes. We have a little Dynasty 2509 01:59:23.039 --> 01:59:25.479 nerd group chat. I was sitting there early on doing 2510 01:59:26.039 --> 01:59:29.079 our scouting for our rookie guide over there, and I 2511 01:59:29.239 --> 01:59:32.439 was watching Eli Stowers early on. This is like months ago, 2512 01:59:32.840 --> 01:59:37.720 and I was like, guys, Stowers might be one B 2513 01:59:38.000 --> 01:59:39.640 in this class at the tight end position, Like he 2514 01:59:39.760 --> 01:59:42.960 might be right there. And Jagger was like, dude, I 2515 01:59:43.039 --> 01:59:44.560 kind of see it too, And I was like, I 2516 01:59:44.680 --> 01:59:46.319 need to go watch like a couple more games just 2517 01:59:46.359 --> 01:59:48.039 to make sure that I'm not like over hyping it. 2518 01:59:48.520 --> 01:59:48.640 Now. 2519 01:59:48.880 --> 01:59:52.159 This kid's legit and for only playing the position for 2520 01:59:52.159 --> 01:59:53.880 a couple of years, Like I said, I think there's 2521 01:59:54.039 --> 01:59:57.039 still so much that he can learn, which makes it scary. 2522 01:59:57.079 --> 01:59:59.000 From a receiving standpoint, I think he could truly be 2523 01:59:59.039 --> 02:00:00.359 a real threat in the receiver game. 2524 02:00:00.960 --> 02:00:03.640 Fantasy meetball chiming in right now, will throw it up 2525 02:00:03.680 --> 02:00:05.359 on the screen. What do you think of Max Claiir. 2526 02:00:05.439 --> 02:00:07.479 We touched on it a little bit before that he 2527 02:00:07.640 --> 02:00:10.840 might be the guy that Kansas City could go after 2528 02:00:10.960 --> 02:00:12.960 later on in the draft, but certainly the Chiefs not. 2529 02:00:13.039 --> 02:00:14.840 The only team that would be interested in a prospect 2530 02:00:14.920 --> 02:00:15.319 like Claire. 2531 02:00:16.039 --> 02:00:17.720 Yeah, he's my tight end three in the class. 2532 02:00:17.840 --> 02:00:21.199 I think he's very solid, a Day two guy for me, 2533 02:00:21.359 --> 02:00:22.960 maybe a round two or round three pick. 2534 02:00:24.079 --> 02:00:30.039 But I kind of view his game as Pat Friarmth plus. 2535 02:00:30.600 --> 02:00:32.399 And I know that doesn't get a lot of people 2536 02:00:32.479 --> 02:00:35.319 excited because of recent years of Pat Friarmuth and he's 2537 02:00:35.319 --> 02:00:37.399 been sharing a lot of that workload with John new Smith. 2538 02:00:37.800 --> 02:00:40.880 But keep in mind Pat Friarmuth gave us multiple seasons 2539 02:00:40.920 --> 02:00:42.560 early on in his career where he was kind of 2540 02:00:42.600 --> 02:00:45.479 this fringe tight end one for fantasy purposes. 2541 02:00:45.520 --> 02:00:47.279 He was getting enough volume he was. 2542 02:00:47.640 --> 02:00:49.439 Like I said earlier in the show, I like to 2543 02:00:49.479 --> 02:00:51.760 target tight ends who are the one or two receiving option. 2544 02:00:52.039 --> 02:00:53.399 He got in the right situation where he was the 2545 02:00:53.479 --> 02:00:56.279 number two receiving option. I could see Claire going in 2546 02:00:56.399 --> 02:00:58.920 that range. But I think he's a little bit better 2547 02:00:58.960 --> 02:01:02.239 as a receiver than friar Myth was. 2548 02:01:02.279 --> 02:01:04.239 That's why I say he's the fire Myth plus. 2549 02:01:05.039 --> 02:01:07.239 Outside of final question for you tonight, outside of your 2550 02:01:07.279 --> 02:01:09.479 top twenty five for your rankings, do you have a 2551 02:01:09.560 --> 02:01:12.960 favorite player? UH, running back, receiver, a tight end, a 2552 02:01:13.079 --> 02:01:15.159 rookie specifically is what I'm looking for here. 2553 02:01:15.880 --> 02:01:19.039 Yeah, I mean, let me see, because I know I'm 2554 02:01:19.199 --> 02:01:24.039 I know, I'm significantly higher than consensus on Jeremy Bernard. 2555 02:01:25.119 --> 02:01:27.159 I've seen Jeremy Bernard go pretty low in a lot 2556 02:01:27.199 --> 02:01:28.760 of these drafts, and I have him as a top 2557 02:01:28.840 --> 02:01:31.960 twelve first round rookie pick in my rankings. I really 2558 02:01:32.079 --> 02:01:35.560 like Jeremy Bernard, but outside of my top twenty five, 2559 02:01:36.279 --> 02:01:39.840 somebody that I do like, Antonio Williams comes to mind. 2560 02:01:40.000 --> 02:01:43.479 I think he's a very savvy route runner. Underperformed this year. 2561 02:01:43.520 --> 02:01:45.159 If you would have went back a year before, kind 2562 02:01:45.199 --> 02:01:47.640 of the Nick Singleton's story of like had he come 2563 02:01:47.680 --> 02:01:49.800 out the year before, probably was going to be a 2564 02:01:49.840 --> 02:01:52.359 guy who was a lot higher in the draft. Was 2565 02:01:52.479 --> 02:01:53.960 looked at as one of the better wider receivers in 2566 02:01:54.000 --> 02:01:56.720 this year's draft class. And if you want somebody deep, 2567 02:01:56.960 --> 02:01:59.000 like really really deep that I think you guys should 2568 02:01:59.000 --> 02:02:02.279 be paying attention to. I haven't really seen a lot 2569 02:02:02.319 --> 02:02:06.439 of people talk about him. Eric Rivers out of Georgia Tech. 2570 02:02:07.159 --> 02:02:08.039 He's my wide. 2571 02:02:07.840 --> 02:02:11.960 Receiver twenty two, which doesn't sound a lot, but he 2572 02:02:12.119 --> 02:02:14.880 is very interesting as a profile. I look at his 2573 02:02:15.039 --> 02:02:18.560 analytics right now. The dominator rating is great, the receiving 2574 02:02:18.640 --> 02:02:21.560 share was good in twenty twenty four. The receiving yardage 2575 02:02:21.680 --> 02:02:24.600 was great, the receiving touchdown percentage was great, the breakout 2576 02:02:24.640 --> 02:02:27.840 age is good. Like the analytics checkout and the production. 2577 02:02:28.520 --> 02:02:30.520 Back in twenty twenty four, this was a twelve hundred 2578 02:02:30.560 --> 02:02:32.079 yard receiver with twelve touchdowns. 2579 02:02:32.319 --> 02:02:33.880 Nobody's talking about Eric Rivers. 2580 02:02:34.119 --> 02:02:36.520 He could be a Day three or a UDFA guy 2581 02:02:36.880 --> 02:02:40.039 that people start to talk about in May after he 2582 02:02:40.119 --> 02:02:41.920 starts signing with some of these teams and starts getting 2583 02:02:41.920 --> 02:02:42.880 into rookie training camps. 2584 02:02:43.159 --> 02:02:45.840 Very exciting, very excited.
