Speaker 1: What FFPC stug coming off in injury is trending in
Speaker 1: the right direction, how do you handle unsigned wide receivers
Speaker 1: in your Big Gorilla drafts? And who's the best option
Speaker 1: for you to select on the Chargers new look offense.
Speaker 1: Plus the eight time f FPC League winner and twenty
Speaker 1: twenty six f FPC pros versus Joe's drafter, Clayton Etheridge

Speaker 1: My co host is the definitive Commissioner of Fantasy Football,
Speaker 1: mister Farrell Elliott. Coming up on tonight show, we're gonna
Speaker 1: get into a lot. We'll talk about Malik Neighbors and
Speaker 1: how far is the right spot for him to drop
Speaker 1: before you start selecting him in your f FPC main
Speaker 1: event drafts. We're also going to be discussing Josh Jacobs
Speaker 1: and whether the storm has passed for him and whether
Speaker 1: you should be taking advantage of him in the f
Speaker 1: f PC Best Ball Tournament play. We're also going to
Speaker 1: get a visit from Clayton Etherich, who is an eight
Speaker 1: time FFPC League winner. He's also drafting August fourth in
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty six FFPC Pros versus Josie's picking tenth
Speaker 1: in that league. We'll talk about that with him, and
Speaker 1: we'll get into some of his teams that he's already
Speaker 1: been drafting this year to get his thoughts on what
Speaker 1: is shaping up to be a very very end, very
Speaker 1: very fun end to the fantasy drafting season. Or start,
Speaker 1: dependent upon where you're drafting, or maybe you're right in
Speaker 1: the middle. Maybe you've been drafting since January and you're
Speaker 1: coming up on the last couple of months of drafting.
Speaker 1: I think I sent out an FFPC email on Tuesday
Speaker 1: stating that we're fifty seven days away from the start
Speaker 1: of the NFL season, so time is a tick in there.

Speaker 1: and our producer and mutual friend Rob. We introduced player
Speaker 1: one FFPC Player one a few weeks ago. It's a
Speaker 1: really really cool thing where you register for a draft
Speaker 1: and you're automatically drafting right away. You don't have to
Speaker 1: wait for eleven other people because you're going against eleven
Speaker 1: CPU smart FFPC.
Speaker 3: Components.
Speaker 1: I guess as it were, it's you drafting against eleven
Speaker 1: smart FFPC profiles. If you want to have a random
Speaker 1: draft slot, you'll win ten times your entry if you
Speaker 1: finish first. If you want to pick your draft slot,
Speaker 1: you win nine times if you win that league. We've
Speaker 1: had a lot of people playing in it, a lot
Speaker 1: of people multiple times a day. You can start at
Speaker 1: five bucks and go up to three hundred and fifty
Speaker 1: however you want to do it, but check it out.

Speaker 1: in right now, ladies and gentlemen, at of course, KFFFC
Speaker 1: on X and KFFFC dot com is where to play
Speaker 1: his game like I do. He is the definitive commissioner
Speaker 1: of Fantasy Football in his name is Farrell Elliott good Evening, Pharrell.
Speaker 3: How are you, sir doing?
Speaker 1: Good Man? Excited to talk chop it up with you tonight.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of fun topics to be talking about
Speaker 1: in the middle of a KFFFC main event. I had
Speaker 1: a KFFFC rookie draft start tonight, so I'm very pumped
Speaker 1: about that. We're in the thick of it. Man, I
Speaker 1: just can't get enough of a KNT get enough drafting.
Speaker 3: Which league was that the rookie draft went off tonight,
Speaker 3: March I believe it was March Madness. March Madness. All right,
Speaker 3: very good to look in on that and see how
Speaker 3: you boys are doing. You know, everybody on Wednesday night
Speaker 3: needs to come here and look in with you, Bucky.
Speaker 3: Then we'll share one thing in common with me. They
Speaker 3: will be exposed to the unique genius and broadcast professional
Speaker 3: of your fantasy aspect. And then, you know, I just
Speaker 3: sit here and I hope that I can osmodically absorb
Speaker 3: just a small part of the dignified mind of fantasy
Speaker 3: football that you have. And you know, if I can
Speaker 3: do that, I think it's going to be a wonderful
Speaker 3: twenty twenty six season. There's so many things I want
Speaker 3: to point out before we get into anything tonight. Miami quarterback,
Speaker 3: your boy, what's his name, Cleek Willis, mister Malik Willis.
Speaker 3: Where was he previously Tennessee?
Speaker 1: He went from from before Miami's Green Bay and then
Speaker 1: he was at Tennessee.
Speaker 3: Before he was at Tennessee. He's been beat up. He's
Speaker 3: earned it little bit, kind of like you and me.
Speaker 3: I kind of earned it a little bit. You know,
Speaker 3: I wrote over looking up a stat today. I heard
Speaker 3: it somewhere and verified it. If you can find a
Speaker 3: quarterback that's going to carry the ball over one hundred
Speaker 3: times a year and an offense, you've got a good
Speaker 3: shot of him being a top twelve quarterback. And I
Speaker 3: think you're gonna get those one hundred carries out. And
Speaker 3: you've been You've been beating that drum for this player
Speaker 3: ever since we started this spring. So it's you know,
Speaker 3: it's just I'm winning because I'm listening to Balky, Yes,
Speaker 3: exactly what's up?
Speaker 1: Well, listen, we're gonna try to bring that that fun
Speaker 1: tonight for everybody, the fun of watching us, watching Clayton
Speaker 1: Ethridge talk about his team so far this year, his
Speaker 1: thoughts on how he's gonna build a juggernaut and pros
Speaker 1: versus Joe's and so much more. I want to kick
Speaker 1: things off tonight, Ferrell with going down to the Big
Speaker 1: Easy and talking about the the contract. The surprising contract
Speaker 1: news that we got from Nick Underhill today from New
Speaker 1: Orleans Dot Football, Alvin Kamara and the Saints are finalizing
Speaker 1: a new deal right now. Probably a pay cut, we
Speaker 1: would imagine, so the Saints can keep him around on
Speaker 1: the team. There could be incentives in this as well. Again,
Speaker 1: this was kind of a foregone conclusion earlier in the
Speaker 1: season that Kamara was going to be gone, and then
Speaker 1: as it kind of you dragged on that he was
Speaker 1: still on the team and became more and more likely
Speaker 1: he was going to be a part of the Saints
Speaker 1: this year. And it looks like that is going to
Speaker 1: happen now. Kamara said he wanted to finish his career
Speaker 1: in New Orleans, so maybe he took a little hometown
Speaker 1: discount to make that happen. I think the fantasy analysis
Speaker 1: that we take away from this, Farrell is we know
Speaker 1: Kamara is not the player he used to be, but
Speaker 1: we do know he still has those pass catching chops,
Speaker 1: and those pass catching chops are valuable in New Orleans.
Speaker 1: That we thought if he was not going to be
Speaker 1: a part of the Saints this year, Travis Etchien was
Speaker 1: going to be taking over and getting a huge chunk
Speaker 1: of those.
Speaker 3: Now we know he probably will not be. What do
Speaker 3: you think this would do to his ADP?
Speaker 1: More importantly, Pharrell, how far would you let Etchian fall
Speaker 1: now that you know that Kamara is going to be
Speaker 1: taking over at least some of that third down work
Speaker 1: for Kellen Moore and Tyler Schuck in New Orleans atchim
Speaker 1: According to Fantasy Mojo at fantasymojo dot com, Fantasy Mojo
Speaker 1: on the ex Darren Rmani runs that website. He runs
Speaker 1: the pros versus Joe's check it out. If you have
Speaker 1: an FFPC team, you should be getting a subscription to
Speaker 1: Fantasymojo dot com over the last five days. In the
Speaker 1: Big Gorilla Running Back sixteen at the three twelve, would
Speaker 1: you be letting him slip past Jacob's Javonte Williams scataboo
Speaker 1: right now or would you still be taking him at
Speaker 1: the end of the third I'm.
Speaker 3: Going to take him about scataboo with that arraseement, and
Speaker 3: he's just Stephen G says he should drop a little more. Yes,
Speaker 3: a little is the key word there. He is still
Speaker 3: the guy. There's a lot of carries in that backfield.
Speaker 3: There's a lot of snaps in that backfield. I never
Speaker 3: thought Kamara was leaving now. I don't know where got that.
Speaker 3: I think that was maybe wishful thanking from some fantasy players.
Speaker 3: I thought he would try to pick his game up
Speaker 3: and take it somewhere else. Now this is his football home.
Speaker 3: He will contribute. What's more interesting is where Kamara might
Speaker 3: be going in this draft. He's an interesting player as
Speaker 3: a value pick. Can we get to him late? Can
Speaker 3: we even turn into double digits bulky? Where's he going? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Definitely running back fifty four right now for Kamara. He's
Speaker 3: going in the early fourteenth round on it. Oh my goodness.
Speaker 3: That's just like stealing. That is just like stealing.
Speaker 1: He's going behind luminaries like Tyler Algier, Tank Bigsby and
Speaker 1: Marshan Lloyd. You can get Kamara in the early fourteenth
Speaker 1: if you want him right now. I'm with you and
Speaker 1: Steve G. Obviously letting Etchien slip a little bit more.
Speaker 1: I'd be taking Javonte Williams over him. I might be
Speaker 1: taking Scataboo over him. You know, maybe it's just because
Speaker 1: I'm very high on Scataboo, but that's how I feel
Speaker 1: about it right now. And then that other running that
Speaker 1: was going right after him, who did I just mention Jacobs?
Speaker 3: Josh Jacobs.
Speaker 1: I'd be taking Jacobs ahead, So I'd be taking probably
Speaker 1: all three of those guys ahead of Etchien. Then you
Speaker 1: get into the Montgomery Judkins area. I'm still probably taking
Speaker 1: etch over those guys, but it's close.
Speaker 3: With Montgomery. I'm a big Montgomery. I'm a big Montgomery overall.
Speaker 1: He could yeah, could very well be as well. Let's
Speaker 1: go to San Francisco. This is a player that we
Speaker 1: have talked about before Pharaoh, and the news just continues
Speaker 1: to be positive with George Kittle. Victor four, who covers
Speaker 1: the Niners for the Athletic Publication, reports that Kittle is
Speaker 1: ahead of schedule, which, as you know, is the new
Speaker 1: on schedule. Kittle was apparently doing some cutting a few
Speaker 1: weeks ago, and he's running more than sixteen miles an hour,
Speaker 1: which is great. I don't really have anything to compare
Speaker 1: it to, because I don't know what Kittle was running
Speaker 1: at prior to this torn achilles ughes Chick was interviewed
Speaker 1: by Tifour in his story Kyle Uschek and again, you know,
Speaker 1: like to take injury advice or recovery advice, either the
Speaker 1: player or the teammates. But Yuschek thinks there's a real
Speaker 1: chance that we want Kittle is going to be coming
Speaker 1: down to Australia to play in that game, so we'll
Speaker 1: see what happens.
Speaker 3: He tore his achilles in the playoffs.
Speaker 1: Farrell, He's still looking like a bargain in if he
Speaker 1: is healthy and he's ready and he's going to be
Speaker 1: playing this season like he has played in the past,
Speaker 1: to the level he's played in the past. He's tight
Speaker 1: end nine right now at the seven oh two. Both
Speaker 1: him and Isaiah Likely are steaming up. They've moved past
Speaker 1: Travis Kelcey next on the list as Sam Laporter for
Speaker 1: those guys, but.
Speaker 3: They're still going a full round behind Laporta.
Speaker 1: I'm talking about Kittle and Likely, but specifically about the
Speaker 1: San Francisco tight end here, Farrell.
Speaker 3: This is a guy I had written off earlier in
Speaker 3: the year.
Speaker 1: And I think I might have to reevaluate and start
Speaker 1: looking at this guy a little bit more seriously as
Speaker 1: a top ten tight end the same and well.
Speaker 3: You should bulky again, you know. I apparently you have
Speaker 3: not been listening to me when I tell you this
Speaker 3: is best damn player. Well, and what does the best
Speaker 3: player in the NFL do? He leads by example, He
Speaker 3: has great attitude. He is core strength personified. And you know,
Speaker 3: Patrick Mahomes said it today in an interview. I heard
Speaker 3: him say, I don't get to make that decision about
Speaker 3: when I come back. It's not my decision. Neither is
Speaker 3: it Kittle's decision. But he's doing everything he can to
Speaker 3: get back. That's what the teammate's talking about. They see
Speaker 3: him working. He gets there early, stays late, it's extra treatment,
Speaker 3: does everything he can do. Plus he brings an attitude
Speaker 3: to the team that hey, I'm trying to get ready
Speaker 3: to play, and that's what everybody sees, and that's what
Speaker 3: everybody's commenting about. So we don't want to, you know,
Speaker 3: can't you can't take the teammate's assessment to the bank.
Speaker 3: But teammates a veteran player and he's pointing at him
Speaker 3: and saying that's the way we should all be. So
Speaker 3: that's kind of player you want on your team. And
Speaker 3: until then you got Jake. You got to go get Jake.
Speaker 3: Where's Jake being drafted? Seventeen sixteen? He's fall to Jake?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean he never really, I mean he moved
Speaker 1: up a little bit, but he's been falling quite a
Speaker 1: bit tight end twenty eight. Now he's at the sixteen
Speaker 1: seventeen turn. That's Friarmouth Otton Territory right now. And then
Speaker 1: of course it's speaking of the Big Gorilla, a contest
Speaker 1: you can play right now for three hundred and fifty
Speaker 1: bucks billion dollars grand prize. Baby, that's what it's all about.
Speaker 1: With slow Mime drafts filling up. We got the seven
Speaker 1: Bananas promo as well. Checking out my FFPC doctor.
Speaker 3: Did they suspend the drafts when the show was on?
Speaker 3: Do they stop the drift? So literally, that's what I
Speaker 3: would like to do right now. I would like to
Speaker 3: go join a draft.
Speaker 1: Yea.
Speaker 3: I'd like to draft Kittle and Jake and probably one
Speaker 3: more guy.
Speaker 1: You have, by the way, just on the Big Guerrilla
Speaker 1: tonight if you are looking for some action. Nine spots
Speaker 1: left in the midnight draft tonight, so you'll be able to.
Speaker 3: Join that if you'd like.
Speaker 1: We have several four slow drafts going on right now
Speaker 1: too that you can sign up for my FFPC dot com.
Speaker 3: I want to get your read on Stefan Diggs Pharrell.
Speaker 1: I think he's kind of moving up a little bit
Speaker 1: now that we're getting closer to camp, Jeremy Fowler reported.
Speaker 1: He didn't say which teams, but are reported at least
Speaker 1: five teams have checked in on bringing in Stefan Diggs,
Speaker 1: and Fowler said that Digs, despite being a veteran, probably
Speaker 1: doesn't want to play training air practice and training camp.
Speaker 1: He still could get signed prior to a training camp.
Speaker 1: He mentioned Washington. I feel like the Auk Highway to
Speaker 1: UH to the Commanders is probably permanently disabled.
Speaker 3: I don't think that's gonna happen anymore.
Speaker 1: Fowler did mention Baltimore as a team that sometimes will
Speaker 1: add these free agents late in the game. Now, he
Speaker 1: didn't say that the Ravens are one of these teams
Speaker 1: that were interested in. However, if you connect you know,
Speaker 1: two and two together here you're red between the lines,
Speaker 1: you probably sense that Baltimore might be one of those
Speaker 1: teams that's interested and that's specifically what I want to
Speaker 1: talk about here. I think he seamlessly fits in with
Speaker 1: the Commanders, right. I don't think that hurts a con Quo.
Speaker 1: I don't think it hurts McLaurin. It might hurt Antonio Williams,
Speaker 1: but Williams is going so far down. My concern with
Speaker 1: Diggs going to Baltimore is that it might hurt Zay Flowers.
Speaker 3: It might hurt Mark Andrews.
Speaker 1: Obviously, when you think about the rookies they got there
Speaker 1: in Jacoby Lane and Elijah Saratt, it's obviously going to
Speaker 1: take a huge ding out of that Rashan Bateman as well.
Speaker 1: But I guess my thought here is, if he does
Speaker 1: go to Baltimore, since that's one of the teams that
Speaker 1: Fowler alluded to here, what does that do for Zay Flowers?
Speaker 1: What does that do for Mark Andrews? In your mind?
Speaker 1: How big of a ding is that to their fantasy
Speaker 1: production in twenty twenty seven?
Speaker 3: I think it enhances those guys as football players, and
Speaker 3: if you get going and if you get in a groove,
Speaker 3: having a player like that could actually help Flowers catch
Speaker 3: more balls and actually get more yardage and Andrews. I
Speaker 3: think we've seen some of his best football. But at
Speaker 3: the same time, there's always a spot for the tight
Speaker 3: end in this offense, and people want to buy into
Speaker 3: the aspect that Lamar is not going to run the
Speaker 3: ball as much as he hasn't passed. I don't know
Speaker 3: if that's true or not, But to me, with Diggs,
Speaker 3: you would think a veteran player like this wants to
Speaker 3: go out on top. You know, he's he's been very
Speaker 3: successful in football, and he's looking for a home. He's
Speaker 3: nomadic because what he does not have is he does
Speaker 3: not have a coaching tree that really is welcoming him.
Speaker 3: And he doesn't have a quarterback that's saying get me Digs.
Speaker 3: There's some assets of accumulation of years in the NFL
Speaker 3: that it doesn't they don't really come to him. So
Speaker 3: he's he's a bit of a mercenary in the situation.
Speaker 3: And it looks to me like he would you would
Speaker 3: rather go to a ball Where do he go to college?
Speaker 1: Darylyn?
Speaker 3: Okay, all right, so you know he's right down the
Speaker 3: street for me that you know, this is a stomping ground,
Speaker 3: you know, and it's uh in his mind. May he's
Speaker 3: thinking he's returning to his college home, have fond memories
Speaker 3: of that to where he would go out. Yes, Dynasty drafters,
Speaker 3: it destroys some of those guys that took the receivers
Speaker 3: at Baltimore that just you know if he goes there. Now.
Speaker 3: Diggs took most of his snaps and did most of
Speaker 3: his play out of the slot position last year, and
Speaker 3: I think he was highly productive out of it. So yeah,
Speaker 3: I really like this for Diggs. I've got Digs locked
Speaker 3: up on some Dynasty teams and I'm looking for many,
Speaker 3: many ways to keep him. I don't want to release him,
Speaker 3: and I think if somebody is foolishly already released him
Speaker 3: in Dynasty, well, our dynasty graphs are over in the FFBC,
Speaker 3: but in Kentucky in the few Dynasty leagues that we have,
Speaker 3: Digs is available.
Speaker 1: Grabby Diggs right now, wide receiver fifty three at the
Speaker 1: eleven or nine.
Speaker 3: Well worth the swing there, in my opinion, merrels as well.
Speaker 1: By the way, Diggs was born and grew up went
Speaker 1: to high school in Maryland as well, so he is
Speaker 1: Maryland through and through, crab cakes and football as the
Speaker 1: as the great Vince Vawn once said in Wedding Crashers,
Speaker 1: we have another guy that's gonna give us a lot
Speaker 1: of great quotes tonight. He is a player that has
Speaker 1: won eight FFPC League championships in his career, and you
Speaker 1: can watch him draft live Tuesday, August fourth, ten pm
Speaker 1: Eastern Time, when he is drafting out of the ten
Speaker 1: spot in the pros Versus Joe's Draft for one of
Speaker 1: the six drafts that will be that we'll be streaming
Speaker 1: this year. Once again, he joins us tonight to talk
Speaker 1: about many of the players that he might be taking
Speaker 1: in pros Versus Joe's, as well as some draft strategy
Speaker 1: as well.
Speaker 3: Please welcome onto the program, mister Clayton Ethridge, Clayton. Good evening, sir.
Speaker 3: Hey guys, Clayton, you got.
Speaker 1: There is perfect. It's going well, man. How are you?
Speaker 1: This is first pros Versus Joe's entry for you in
Speaker 1: your career.
Speaker 4: You gotta be pumped for it, right, I'm pretty excited.
Speaker 4: I'm ready to do some crazy stuff, stack some guys.
Speaker 3: Good for you, Clayton.
Speaker 4: Anything I really want? Really, yes, sir, it's your team,
Speaker 4: so I really it's gonna be a lot of fun
Speaker 4: and I'm gonna look at it like.
Speaker 1: That, Clayton. When we'll get to fantasy football here in
Speaker 1: a second, tell us what you're doing when you're not
Speaker 1: winning FFPC leagues and preparing for process as Joe's What
Speaker 1: are you doing for a living?
Speaker 4: I'm a landscaper. I own a landscaping company, so I
Speaker 4: work outside all day. Yeah, think about fantasy football as
Speaker 4: I'm working.
Speaker 3: So, Clayton, why you're thinking about fantasy footbar? Are you
Speaker 3: thinking about? Are you thinking about a certain receiver for
Speaker 3: the Arizona Cardinals because Balky Man, Balky has just turned
Speaker 3: me off of this player if I ever thought. And
Speaker 3: Balky's reasoning is the quarterback position on Harrison. But I,
Speaker 3: on the other.
Speaker 1: Well, that's one of the reasons. That's well, but.
Speaker 3: That's your number one really And and I didn't care
Speaker 3: for his quarterback position when he had a quarterback, you know,
Speaker 3: I didn't think it was so great for him. What
Speaker 3: are you doing with Marvin Harrison? Enlightened the listeners as
Speaker 3: to what they should be doing in upcoming drafts with
Speaker 3: this seamlessly talented receiver who is in a landing spot
Speaker 3: that just doesn't seem to move the needle.
Speaker 4: Well, you can go through all the cliches of third
Speaker 4: year receiver blah blah blah, all that stuff breakout. But
Speaker 4: if a talented guy like that going in probably the sixth,
Speaker 4: the bid six and some drafts in the seventh round,
Speaker 4: I'm all in.
Speaker 1: MM.
Speaker 3: I looked.
Speaker 4: I looked at my percentage of every format that I'm
Speaker 4: currently in, and I think he was like fifty fifty five.
Speaker 4: So I have him in a lot of leagues.
Speaker 3: Uh. He reminds me.
Speaker 4: Of a lave last year when I took a lave
Speaker 4: in in several leagues in like I think around the
Speaker 4: fifth round, fourth into the fourth, all through the fifth
Speaker 4: and it paid. Of course it paid off. Now if
Speaker 4: you tell me that what is it Carson Beck is
Speaker 4: the starting quarterback, then I'm probably going to lose a
Speaker 4: lot of cash.
Speaker 3: In those But with with the round, with the round.
Speaker 4: He's going, it's you can make it up pretty easily.
Speaker 4: So I think it's a it's a good it's a
Speaker 4: good dart throw. Uh, especially if you get him in
Speaker 4: the seventh. In the sixth, he might be your last uh,
Speaker 4: your last spot on your team, starting team, your last flex.
Speaker 4: But if you can get him in the seventh, then
Speaker 4: it's yeah, I'm all in.
Speaker 1: You to Clayton's point right now, Marvin Harrison and the
Speaker 1: f FPC Best Ball Tournament seven to oh three is
Speaker 1: his ADP wide Receiver thirty two. If that sounds pretty
Speaker 1: tasty to you, join the f f PC Bestball Tournament.
Speaker 1: Four hundred thousand dollars grand prize there, that's one hundred
Speaker 1: k more than what we had last year. My f
Speaker 1: FPC dot Com is where to go for that. We
Speaker 1: have live and slow drafts filling up right now, the
Speaker 1: f FPC Bestball Tournament, my f FPC dot Com. That
Speaker 1: was the Marvin Harrison discussion. Let's move on to the
Speaker 1: Michael Pittman question here you will have tonight. It's more
Speaker 1: of a Josh Downs question than a Pittman question, but
Speaker 1: I have to.
Speaker 3: Frame it that way.
Speaker 1: We no longer Clayton have Michael Pittman, the Indianapolis Cult.
Speaker 1: We have Pittman, the Pittsburgh Steeler. How many of those
Speaker 1: vacated targets that Pittman had last year do you think
Speaker 1: are going to be going to Josh Downs, who has
Speaker 1: been rising up in big gorilla drafts over the last
Speaker 1: few weeks.
Speaker 4: He was a down's is well like receiver coming out
Speaker 4: of college. There's a lot of industry, industry guys that
Speaker 4: really really liked him a lot. Now he's been plagued
Speaker 4: with injury here and there, you know, I mean, actually
Speaker 4: the Colts have been plagued with injury. If if the
Speaker 4: quarterback is healthy, then I could see Warren taking a
Speaker 4: bit of a of a target share. Uh, Pierce, I'm
Speaker 4: not bought in on Pierce getting you know, eight or
Speaker 4: nine targets are getting like a twenty five twenty six
Speaker 4: percent turtle that that just leaves downs And it might
Speaker 4: be one of those things where each player, those three
Speaker 4: guys get like twenty two, twenty two, twenty two. So
Speaker 4: it's gonna be It's really gonna be up to the
Speaker 4: health of the quarterback.
Speaker 3: I like that input. Let me flip some of that
Speaker 3: question there, because damn bukey stealing and Michael Pittman as
Speaker 3: question from me, I don't appreciate it. We will have
Speaker 3: a production meeting after the show to discuss this further. However,
Speaker 3: let's move over to Pittsburgh and I want to tell
Speaker 3: you two things that I think about Pittsburgh wide receivers.
Speaker 3: I think Pittman's being underdrafted, and I think Metcalf's being underdrafted.
Speaker 3: Your thoughts on the Steeler wide receivers. I drafted Metcalf
Speaker 3: last year in the main event, and I think I
Speaker 3: lost all on my hair watching it.
Speaker 1: So, but.
Speaker 4: I have drafted Pittman in a lot of best ball
Speaker 4: because you can get Aaron Rodgers in the you know,
Speaker 4: fifteenth round, so you can get a small, you can
Speaker 4: get a small pairing with With that, I think he's
Speaker 4: gonna out target Metcalf by a lot. And I also
Speaker 4: think friar Mouth is gonna come up and take a
Speaker 4: little bit of the target share.
Speaker 3: Yes, and I agree he's not a catch. You know,
Speaker 3: in the FFBC one point five points per tight end reception,
Speaker 3: Priormuth really let us down last year. That's not a
Speaker 3: thirty five catch tight end. That's a better tight end.
Speaker 3: I think that was more coaching. Maybe, yeah, that could be.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Let me ask you this, Clayton, as long as
Speaker 1: you're talking Pittsburgh receivers. I know you're a dynasty guys.
Speaker 1: Well what do you make of Jeremy Bernard?
Speaker 3: He probably obviously needs a.
Speaker 1: A an injury to either Metcalf or Pittman to be
Speaker 1: a significant contributor this year. But I was toddling. I
Speaker 1: was talking to the Dizzle Dave Gerzak about this today
Speaker 1: and I said, you know, I don't know if Pittman
Speaker 1: or Metcalf are long for Pittsburgh. And Bernard seems to
Speaker 1: me a guy that that his floor should be a
Speaker 1: long term And I say long term, but like, you know,
Speaker 1: four or five year number two receiver on Pittsburgh that
Speaker 1: should have a pretty talented rookie first round pick next year,
Speaker 1: at least I hope so. But then the ceiling might
Speaker 1: even be higher where maybe he develops into being that
Speaker 1: number one receiver on Pittsburgh. What do you make of
Speaker 1: Jeremy Bernard speaking either redraft or dynasty purposes here?
Speaker 4: Well, Dynasty, I have a couple of shares of him,
Speaker 4: and you're you're exactly right that that team was not
Speaker 4: going to look like the team we have this year.
Speaker 4: Next year they're all gone. I don't know what the
Speaker 4: con I don't know what the contract situation is with
Speaker 4: Pittman or Metcalf, but Aaron Rodgers is probably gonna be gone.
Speaker 4: And if Aaron Rodgers could trust this kid, then he's
Speaker 4: gonna get something. He's gonna get some opportunities because I
Speaker 4: like the coaching staff, I like the running backs of
Speaker 4: the half. So he's got a lot more than he
Speaker 4: had last year. And he's still Aaron Rodgers. He's old,
Speaker 4: he's so, he still can throw the ball.
Speaker 3: It's interesting. I like the kid. It's interesting that you
Speaker 3: guys in Balky's phrasing this and talking about two years
Speaker 3: from now. I find this year vaccine enough myself. I'm
Speaker 3: already and you know, uh I uh, But okay, let's
Speaker 3: move on to running back position. I want to talk
Speaker 3: about something that's near, near and dear to Balky's heart.
Speaker 3: And he knows a hell lot more about this than
Speaker 3: I do. Laine knows a hell a lot more about
Speaker 3: everything than I do. But sometimes you can ask me
Speaker 3: ask questions. And the one I want to ask now
Speaker 3: is about Josh Jacobs and Bonkey. If we go down
Speaker 3: memory lane last year, weren't most of the callers, weren't
Speaker 3: most of the visitors to the show, most of the
Speaker 3: guys in the chat room sort of down on Jacobs.
Speaker 3: Jacobs fell throughout the draft. And I like the way
Speaker 3: you're thinking about certain players Clayton, because you know, you
Speaker 3: might have had Jacobs last year, you're gonna have Jacobs
Speaker 3: this year.
Speaker 4: Well tell you the truth. I think the first championship
Speaker 4: I won on FFPC, I drafted Jacobs. I think if
Speaker 4: you remember he played, they started him in the Hall
Speaker 4: of Fame game that year, and this is when he
Speaker 4: was with the Raiders and it was a big to do.
Speaker 4: He dropped in the draft. I drafted him in like
Speaker 4: the fourth and fifth round, and he had the best
Speaker 4: year of his career. And then he moves on to
Speaker 4: Green Bay. He's getting older, there's a lot of wear
Speaker 4: and tear, but there's no one behind him.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 4: If if it doesn't go to jail or you know,
Speaker 4: whatever's going to happen with all that stuff that he's
Speaker 4: going through, you know, then he's a guy that I
Speaker 4: want to have on my team.
Speaker 3: I actually traded for him in a couple of Dynasty leagues.
Speaker 3: If you need a running back, you can get him
Speaker 3: cheat and I always buy the dip. I want to
Speaker 3: buy those guys.
Speaker 1: Right now in the FFPC, Big Gorilla Jacobs has fallen
Speaker 1: over the last five days. He's the four oh one
Speaker 1: running back seventeen. Sounds like you are in on Jacobs
Speaker 1: at that price, right.
Speaker 4: Yeah, especially if you go running back receiver receiver. Yeah,
Speaker 4: you know, if you do something like that, then yeah,
Speaker 4: Jacobs is a perfectly good second running back exactly.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean, like you could I mean, if you you
Speaker 1: could start off your draft. I'm trying to like, let's
Speaker 1: say you have the twelve pick or something like that,
Speaker 1: you could get let's say James Cook Justin Jefferson, and
Speaker 1: then follow that up the next time you're up with
Speaker 1: Jay Flowers Josh Jacobs. That's that seems like a pretty
Speaker 1: or CD substitute, ceedee Lamb for Justin Jefferson.
Speaker 3: How are you going to do it?
Speaker 1: Speaking of Justin Jefferson, we do have Bob Morrison on
Speaker 1: X right now watching us, and he wants to know,
Speaker 1: since you're talking about receivers, there's a guy in my
Speaker 1: league that seems desperate to trade Justin Jefferson. But asking
Speaker 1: a king's ransom form interesting to hear your guys thoughts
Speaker 1: on Jefferson. Well, I'll say this, Bob, I don't know
Speaker 1: how desperate he is if he's asking for a king's ransom,
Speaker 1: But Jefferson is an interesting guy, Clayton, when we think
Speaker 1: about him, in Dynasty, and we think about him in redraft.
Speaker 1: We thought he was quarterback proof until we saw the
Speaker 1: JJ McCarthy experience last year. We realized he wasn't. He
Speaker 1: gets Kyler Murray this year, which should be an improvement,
Speaker 1: but Kyler Murray sort of already lost his job from
Speaker 1: not being able to distribute the football by passing it.
Speaker 1: I wonder how you would be treating Jefferson both in
Speaker 1: redraft and Dynasty right now.
Speaker 3: Well, redraft them all in because you can get him.
Speaker 4: I think in Suddenly you could get him at like
Speaker 4: early second, at the thirteen or fourteen spot. I mean,
Speaker 4: come on, Dynasty, he cost too much, so you know
Speaker 4: it's probably not feasible to give him in Dynasty unless
Speaker 4: you just have an abundance of picks, or if you
Speaker 4: just have such a good team that you can spare
Speaker 4: you know, two or three great players or package them
Speaker 4: together or whatever. Bob is intrigued to me, We've got
Speaker 4: to see the fine prim on this deal. Why don't
Speaker 4: you ask why don't you get back in Florida and
Speaker 4: see if you've solved some more Florida situation.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we got we have to talk Tampa running backs
Speaker 1: here Clayton, there's three of them that are going in
Speaker 1: in f FPC drafts right now. I'll read them as follows,
Speaker 1: as the order they are being drafted in the FFPC
Speaker 1: Big Gorilla over the last five days. We see Bucky
Speaker 1: Irving right now as the first one off the board
Speaker 1: running back twenty four five oh seven, then Kenny Gainwell
Speaker 1: running back thirty three eighth four about three rounds later,
Speaker 1: and then we see Sean Tucker running back sixty eight
Speaker 1: at the end of the seventeenth round. Out of those three,
Speaker 1: do you have a favorite one, given obviously the value
Speaker 1: and the draft capital you have to surrender to acquire
Speaker 1: these players on your roster.
Speaker 4: Sean Tucker her Damn, I mean, I mean I've got
Speaker 4: I got rid of Bucky uh in several dynasty leagues.
Speaker 3: Gamewell, I mean I really like Gainwell.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 4: I'm not really sure about his ad you know, his
Speaker 4: ADP where if I want to draft him there? But
Speaker 4: if if you want to take a dart throw and
Speaker 4: then Bucky gets hurt again, you might have the guy
Speaker 4: in the seventeenth round. I think there's your value.
Speaker 3: Yeah. No, No, Clayton, where are you from? I live
Speaker 3: in l A I'm from South Carolina. You're were You
Speaker 3: live in Los Angeles, California. Yeah, well, damn isn't that.
Speaker 3: You know, you have the beginnings of a Southern accent,
Speaker 3: and now I know where it comes from. And where
Speaker 3: are you from? Down there? South greenlight like ladder somewhere
Speaker 3: around Lauda A. I'm from Acro I'm from athen That's
Speaker 3: see that bulk, You see what I called it. I
Speaker 3: can tell that accent in South Carolina. I've been down
Speaker 3: to South Carolina. It's a damn shame you're not in Kentucky.
Speaker 3: Maybe you get on a plane and come here and draft.
Speaker 3: That's the only way you're going to get back on
Speaker 3: the show because you didn't answer Lucky Irving with the
Speaker 3: running back position in Tampa. And Balky is already holding
Speaker 3: the grudge. He's smiling behind that beard, but he's holding
Speaker 3: the drudge. Matter of fact, it's still light in la.
Speaker 3: You should be out doing a yard right now if
Speaker 3: you were, if you had your business here in Kentucky.
Speaker 3: The people that are in landscaping here, they start on
Speaker 3: the front of the yard and go to the back,
Speaker 3: and by the time they're finished, they have to redo
Speaker 3: the front you can double charge for the same But okay,
Speaker 3: I'll love about your racket.
Speaker 1: The way to the front.
Speaker 3: Drew back, drew back while I was doing the back.
Speaker 3: But let me ask you something. We have a beloved
Speaker 3: member of the kf fsc U, mister John Anderson, the
Speaker 3: one of the old school find guys of fancy football gules,
Speaker 3: meeting in Las Vegas if you haven't met him yet,
Speaker 3: But you know, John's about the only guy I can
Speaker 3: find that's a Harold Fannin supporter that that hasn't somewhat
Speaker 3: jumped ship. Everybody's jumping ship on Harrold Fanning, and I
Speaker 3: just I love it because I want to draft this player.
Speaker 3: I don't see anything wrong with this player. I don't
Speaker 3: think this player's quarterback depend that you can't overthrow the
Speaker 3: guy's got arm. You know this crazy your thoughts on
Speaker 3: this player, because I don't understand just because he doesn't
Speaker 3: necessarily have the defined quarterback yet, I still don't understand
Speaker 3: why FFPC drafters are letting him slide a little bit. Well.
Speaker 4: I noticed the other day that I think Kraft is
Speaker 4: going ahead of Fanning. Craft is still hurt. I mean,
Speaker 4: we don't know that situation I you know, we'll find out.
Speaker 4: But listen, Fanning is he's kind of a weird talent. Yeah,
Speaker 4: last year they fed him the ball NonStop. Now the
Speaker 4: new coaching change, what's gonna happen If his target share
Speaker 4: with the FFPC tight end premium, if his target share
Speaker 4: is somewhere like eighteen or twenty two, he's a you know,
Speaker 4: he's a top seven tight end.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I just don't see how can he miss that guy?
Speaker 3: He could be the worst quarterback in the world. And
Speaker 3: I don't see how you get that Cleveland Brown's job.
Speaker 3: If you came in the door and said, well, we're
Speaker 3: not going to throw the ball to fan In as
Speaker 3: much as we did last year, I don't think you
Speaker 3: get that job. I think you come in and say, hey,
Speaker 3: what's working is Fanning? We're gonna keep that, you know. Yeah,
Speaker 3: he's not gonna block all it, you know. Oh No,
Speaker 3: I don't think you want tight ends to block anymore.
Speaker 3: I don't think it's a thing.
Speaker 1: Well, some of them you do, but not Fanin for sure.
Speaker 1: To Clayton's point here to all the viewers and listeners
Speaker 1: out there, Kraft has moved ahead of Fannin Right now,
Speaker 1: I'm looking at the FFPC Baby Gorilla ADP on Mojo
Speaker 1: right now. Craft is five point twelve fanin is the
Speaker 1: six to zho twos. They're separated basically by two picks.
Speaker 1: If you have a strong stance on that, make sure
Speaker 1: you are entering the FFPC Baby Gorilla the exact same
Speaker 1: format as the Big Gorilla, except for this one just
Speaker 1: has one hundred and twenty.
Speaker 3: Five dollars entry fee. You can still win one hundred
Speaker 3: thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: Live drafts have been filling up pretty much every night,
Speaker 1: and we got slow drafts going on right now my
Speaker 1: FFPC dot com for the Baby Gorilla. And speaking of
Speaker 1: the Baby Gorilla, I have to ask you about another
Speaker 1: tight end who is actually going a little bit further
Speaker 1: down in the ADP and the Baby Gorilla right now,
Speaker 1: and that is one Rondez Gadsden Clayton tight End eighteen
Speaker 1: at the eleven oh one. I'll be talking about him
Speaker 1: tomorrow night on FFPC Insider Access, but I want to
Speaker 1: get your opinion as long as we have you here.
Speaker 1: They've added Charlie Kohler to the chargers. They've added David
Speaker 1: and Joku in Los Angeles as well. Arondez gatst It meanwhile,
Speaker 1: is like, what did I do that They're bringing in
Speaker 1: all this extra talent and it's hurting my ability to
Speaker 1: get on the field. One of the things that should
Speaker 1: be working for him is the return of Slater and
Speaker 1: all those all world tackles there. We'll see if Slater
Speaker 1: returns the form after that nasty potel a tendon injury,
Speaker 1: But if he does, that should mean less blocking required
Speaker 1: in the tight ends, which means more of Gadsden on
Speaker 1: the field, who's basically like a big slot receiver. How
Speaker 1: much of a fantasy impact you would think Gadsden is
Speaker 1: going to have this year given that FFPC Drafters and
Speaker 1: the Baby Guerrilla are letting this guy slip into the
Speaker 1: eleventh round.
Speaker 4: Eleventh round is great, but I don't think he's going
Speaker 4: to be your first tight end drafted. If he's your
Speaker 4: first tight end drafted in this format, then you might
Speaker 4: have a problem. But here's here's the thing. He's gonna
Speaker 4: get work, he's gonna get percentage, he's gonna get target share,
Speaker 4: he's gonna get all of that. Uh, Kohler is gonna
Speaker 4: block and and Djoku is a freak, but he's he's
Speaker 4: hurt a lot, he's older. Mccaf you know, you've got
Speaker 4: a lot of people to feed on that team, and
Speaker 4: everybody thinks now in the industry, everybody thinks that, you know,
Speaker 4: the Chargers are gonna be one of the highest scoring
Speaker 4: teams in the league. So if that's the case, if
Speaker 4: that's the case, then I want him. I want him
Speaker 4: as my second, my second tight end easily.
Speaker 3: Okay, all right, I like that. I like that a lot.
Speaker 3: I'm picturing you, you know, I'm picturing a documentary where
Speaker 3: you get on your mower and drive it to Kentucky.
Speaker 3: You know, people just people just see it. Though I
Speaker 3: think they did that though.
Speaker 1: That was the straight story I think is what it
Speaker 1: was called. Was Richard Harris was who was in that
Speaker 1: Pharaoh is.
Speaker 3: Very It's very good. It's it's kind of it's a
Speaker 3: simple idea. But you know, Clayton, you could win friends
Speaker 3: and influence people across the country. We've got a Clayton
Speaker 3: that plays here in Kentucky, Clayton Wilson. We need double Clayton.
Speaker 3: So we got to talk to you about this and
Speaker 3: shout out to my pal Maria. We have we have
Speaker 3: first year player last year Maria m from New York
Speaker 3: who played online and won one of our twelve team divisions,
Speaker 3: and she'll be coming here live. So if a girl
Speaker 3: can fight her way just to get to the airport
Speaker 3: in New York, you know you can come see us
Speaker 3: to Clayton. And when you get here, you're you know,
Speaker 3: you're you probably will know more about a local University
Speaker 3: of Louisville product than I did. It's Tyler Shuck. It's
Speaker 3: quarterbacking out in New Orleans. Now, I did not see
Speaker 3: it at Farnsworth, That's right, I did not see it Clayton.
Speaker 3: And plus, as you've talked about lots of players being
Speaker 3: old tonight, and I'm not taking that personally, but when
Speaker 3: you talk about this was an older player coming out
Speaker 3: of college and I didn't see it. And now he
Speaker 3: is the New Orleans Saints quarterback and I don't see
Speaker 3: him getting anything, but better does he? Does he continue
Speaker 3: that with the new blood on the team, the new
Speaker 3: running back, the receiver Tyson And you mentioned the Lave
Speaker 3: earlier in the show. Is this a quarterback that you're
Speaker 3: that you're aiming for? Because Darren ARMANI could probably tell
Speaker 3: us exactly where he's being drafted. Bulky and I think
Speaker 3: it's probably a pretty favorable position. I took like the
Speaker 3: twelfth rounds going.
Speaker 1: In like the twelfth round for okay, So so right,
Speaker 1: I'll use was. I mean, I've been jumping around with
Speaker 1: the ADP tonight, but I'll use big.
Speaker 3: I'll use big Gorilla. Gorilla is my favorite ADP.
Speaker 1: Thirteenth round thirteen. Yeah, quarterback eighteen. Right now, it's after
Speaker 1: Golf and Murray and it's right before Mayfield and Love.
Speaker 3: You know that makes sense, don't you think that makes sense?
Speaker 3: I had I have Lamar Jackson on a couple of
Speaker 3: teams last year and coming down the stretch, I needed
Speaker 3: to get something off of Waiver wire and I got
Speaker 3: Tyler Shuck and he saved me coming down the stretch,
Speaker 3: him and a lave together.
Speaker 1: You throw in.
Speaker 4: Jordan Tyson, you throw in et N or h An
Speaker 4: whatever he wants to, you know, to name himself. And
Speaker 4: but I really like the coach. I really like the
Speaker 4: coach need too, So that's that drives everything. You know,
Speaker 4: You could throw in Johnson at the tight end they
Speaker 4: got they got a rookie tight end I think from Georgia,
Speaker 4: yep Oscar Delt. Yeah, so he's ready to go and
Speaker 4: he runs. I'm not sure I really want him to
Speaker 4: run too much, but he kind of looks like Jackson
Speaker 4: Dart out there running all over the place like a maniac.
Speaker 4: But he can really really throw that deep ball at
Speaker 4: all lave and that's that's yeah.
Speaker 3: I love him. Okay, good, I'm going to reevaluate because
Speaker 3: I have it. I don't have that player. I'm you know,
Speaker 3: talking about being laid to the party, but I'm going
Speaker 3: to get there. I'm excited for Shuck this year.
Speaker 1: One hundred and eighty six yards on the ground last year,
Speaker 1: got in the end zone three times. One of the
Speaker 1: things that I think you can you know, we talked
Speaker 1: about all the positives with Shuck, right they you know,
Speaker 1: Joe King chiming in four of seven of the Saints
Speaker 1: draft picks this year around wide receivers and tight ends.
Speaker 1: They add Tyson, They at delp they signed Etchen, and
Speaker 1: you know, we talked about Kellen Moore. Think about the
Speaker 1: division he plays in. Think about that he's going to
Speaker 1: be playing indoors for a lot of games. These are
Speaker 1: all the positive things. Well what's the negative. Well, the
Speaker 1: negative is he was hurt a lot in college and
Speaker 1: he just happened to stay healthy last season.
Speaker 3: Is he going to continue to do that? Well? Maybe,
Speaker 3: maybe not.
Speaker 1: But the great thing is, as we just talked about
Speaker 1: tight end begging pardon quarterback eighteen right now, at that
Speaker 1: thirteen fourteen turn he gets hurt, you probably got to
Speaker 1: have another guy on your team that you can plug
Speaker 1: in for him. So I think it's just it's all
Speaker 1: upside there. He's the type of home run pick you
Speaker 1: should be swinging for in the thirteen fourteenth round. We'll
Speaker 1: get to some emails here now, Clayton for you, and
Speaker 1: the first one is from Mike in Foreston, Minnesota. He says,
Speaker 1: what's up, Clayton, Jordan Love keeps falling in my big
Speaker 1: gorilla drafts and I keep grabbing him. Don't you feel
Speaker 1: like FFPC players are drafting him based on last year's
Speaker 1: team and not this year's. Good luck in process as
Speaker 1: Joe's that's Mike and Forrest in Minnesota. Mike, we appreciate
Speaker 1: the email. What say you about this, Clayton? It does
Speaker 1: seem with what we've been hearing so far, that the
Speaker 1: Packers might open up the passing offense a little bit.
Speaker 1: You touched on Jacobs and his legal issues which could
Speaker 1: be or could not be a thing. This year, they'd
Speaker 1: almost be forced to open things up with Jordan Love.
Speaker 1: What do you make of his ADP, which, by the way,
Speaker 1: I just said Chuck was going right ahead of Love.
Speaker 1: Loved is quarterback twenty in the fifteenth round right now, Clayton.
Speaker 4: Well, I think Shuck and Love are most likely gonna
Speaker 4: be your second quarterback in a redraft situation. Now, they
Speaker 4: got rid of some receivers in Green Bay. You got Watson,
Speaker 4: you got Red, you got the second year guy, golden Craft.
Speaker 4: If he's healthy, if they throw the ball more, which
Speaker 4: the coach doesn't seem like he wants to. But if
Speaker 4: they throw the ball more, yeah, it'll work out. But
Speaker 4: I don't think he's gonna be You're not gonna take
Speaker 4: him over like Mahomes. What you could get in the
Speaker 4: tenth or the eleventh. I think the ninth to the
Speaker 4: eleventh you could get somebody like Mahomes. I do like
Speaker 4: Jordan Love. I have him on several Dynasty teams, but
Speaker 4: he's not gonna be my number one guy.
Speaker 3: If you like, if you love Jacobs and you love
Speaker 3: the quarterback, love, you you don't understand what's going on
Speaker 3: with the football team. Yeah, it's kind of what comes
Speaker 3: down to that, but it's uh, it's as Steve g
Speaker 3: Ofven says, I'm ready to click on Jordan Love at fifteen. Hey,
Speaker 3: before you ask the next email, bulky, you know, speaking
Speaker 3: of of bringing his a game tonight, are pal, Joe
Speaker 3: Keene has been on fire. But yeah, in the chatter,
Speaker 3: Joe Joe is you know, Joe is, Yeah, he's in here. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I've tried to get Joe on the show before. We'll
Speaker 3: have to revisit that, see if we can get him
Speaker 3: on extra reps since you know, you know, I'll let
Speaker 3: him know that he's going to have to jump on
Speaker 3: that Bucky Irving train.
Speaker 1: Clayton, Clayton, we will continue to pick your brain here tonight.
Speaker 3: And I know Steven L. Passo wants to do that
Speaker 3: right now.
Speaker 1: He writes, Hey, Clayton, with Mike McDaniel taking over, is
Speaker 1: Ladd McConkie still worth his high ADP as the first
Speaker 1: Chargers receiver off the board, and to uh and that's
Speaker 1: Steven L. Passo, Steve, we appreciate it. To his point,
Speaker 1: as far as Chargers ADP goes for for wide receivers,
Speaker 1: right now. He is right. McConkie is the first one
Speaker 1: off the board at the four or five. Wide receiver seventeen,
Speaker 1: a guy who has been rising. And maybe when you
Speaker 1: answer this email here, Clayton, you can touch on went
Speaker 1: Johnston as well. But Johnston's been rising up wide receiver
Speaker 1: thirty nine. He is now a seventh round pick in
Speaker 1: the Big Gorilla. And then we have Trey Harris going
Speaker 1: as wide receiver sixty eight in the sixteenth round. That
Speaker 1: is the three Chargers wide receivers here he wants to
Speaker 1: know about McConkey. Is the juice worth the squeeze for you,
Speaker 1: Clayton at the four h five.
Speaker 4: At the four or five, it's it's really nice if
Speaker 4: you could get the target chair up. Last year was
Speaker 4: a disaster. Everybody was hurt it. You know, you can't
Speaker 4: even really count that. Justin Herbert here, it's it was
Speaker 4: all crap. But if they come out throw the ball
Speaker 4: to Hampton, mccaukee is gonna rock. He really is. I
Speaker 4: like him at the I mean the fourth fourth round
Speaker 4: is really you are up next?
Speaker 3: Really good? Who's drafting it?
Speaker 1: I thought I thought it was you as fair.
Speaker 3: As everywhere there's drafts going on everywhere. You know, Clayton, Clayton,
Speaker 3: let me just let me ask you.
Speaker 1: I mean, so that's McConkie.
Speaker 3: You like the four oh five?
Speaker 1: What do you make of this rise from Quentin Johnston
Speaker 1: over the last couple of weeks here to see him
Speaker 1: in the seventh round right now? I know Mike McDaniel's
Speaker 1: been talking him up to the press. He doesn't really
Speaker 1: strike me as a guy that would be successful in
Speaker 1: McDaniel's offense.
Speaker 4: But maybe I'm just totally off base on that. Quentin
Speaker 4: Johnson is in a NIG book. I don't know, I
Speaker 4: he is. Really he is the most schizophrenic rob receiver
Speaker 4: in the league. Probably, I don't. I don't know if
Speaker 4: I have anything intelligent to say about that guy. He's
Speaker 4: neither gonna He's either gonna catch two touchdowns and eight
Speaker 4: balls or drop five.
Speaker 3: So I don't, I don't.
Speaker 4: I'm all.
Speaker 3: I'm all in on Quinton this year, guys. And I
Speaker 3: tell you, it's like watching Spider Man play wide receiver.
Speaker 3: I absolutely love it. And I think it's going to
Speaker 3: bed and you take you, you know, And I don't think.
Speaker 3: I don't necessarily think that this is zero some game,
Speaker 3: But you take out Keenan Allen and all those catches
Speaker 3: that he had last year. And I really am curious
Speaker 3: of where the hell Keenan Allen is. They don't even
Speaker 3: put him on the list, you know, and he is
Speaker 3: as available ballplayers, and here's a guy that called ady balls.
Speaker 3: But getting back to just what the charger is going
Speaker 3: to be doing, you have to assume that somebody's going
Speaker 3: to pick up that slack. I think it's I think
Speaker 3: it's truly Quentin Johnson's time. And you know, in my business,
Speaker 3: Joe King Balkey is essentially time you send Joe a
Speaker 3: note and tell him he needs to get a new agent,
Speaker 3: because you know that if the offers are being communicated properly,
Speaker 3: you know that's that's that's just a shame.
Speaker 1: It might have been an error on my part, unfortunately
Speaker 1: for Joe. Joe, you don't make mistakes. If it's okay
Speaker 1: to make mistakes, but you don't make any.
Speaker 3: I don't understand.
Speaker 1: Maybe I do, I don't know, I don't perrel Let's uh,
Speaker 1: let's give Clayton our favorite question of the night.
Speaker 3: Clayton favorite question, the bulky is that's because he doesn't
Speaker 3: have to do any work and I get to ask
Speaker 3: it when he just sits back and studies at ADP stuff.
Speaker 3: But anyway, you're a very very positive guy. I've really
Speaker 3: enjoyed you being on the show. Tell me a player
Speaker 3: that you have not mentioned yet that you're all in on,
Speaker 3: a guy that you really really love, and then tell me,
Speaker 3: based on just situations that you can't put this player
Speaker 3: on your team. There's another player and you just can't
Speaker 3: work with it. There's just twenty rounds. He just sees
Speaker 3: just not going to make any of your teams.
Speaker 4: Well, the the player that I really love and I
Speaker 4: have a high share of is Roma Dona.
Speaker 3: Mm hmmm.
Speaker 4: I I like the drop, I like to drop, the dip,
Speaker 4: whatever you want to call it. He started the year
Speaker 4: fast last year.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 4: Everybody's enamored with with Loveland and and uh and the
Speaker 4: other guy. I still think Roma Dona's talent is number one.
Speaker 4: I still think he's going to be the guy. Give
Speaker 4: me that, give me Roma, Dunsay and Harrison all day long.
Speaker 4: The the one guy that I haven't drafted yet and
Speaker 4: I've done a lot of Best ball, uh is a Brown.
Speaker 4: I'm not sold on him yet.
Speaker 1: Oh.
Speaker 3: The one guy that there, Yeah, yep, that I haven't drafted.
Speaker 1: Go ahead, Clayton.
Speaker 3: The guy that you haven't drafted yet, that that oh
Speaker 3: we had him and we lost him. Both the internet
Speaker 3: kremlins are they are? They are getting you know, and
Speaker 3: this is well, what can you you know, can you
Speaker 3: bring a linker out and see we can get him back?
Speaker 3: You know? I mean.
Speaker 1: There you go, go ahead, Clayton.
Speaker 3: The player that you haven't drafted a lot yet. I
Speaker 3: think it's a J. Brown.
Speaker 4: Oh okay, I haven't drafted him a lot. It just
Speaker 4: he just he has not come up in the in
Speaker 4: the picks that I get and for a situation for
Speaker 4: for him to be drafted, and he's moving up really fast.
Speaker 3: So I'm not really fading him. I just don't have
Speaker 3: any of him yet. So you haven't figured now, Yeah,
Speaker 3: you know it's amazing when you look at how many
Speaker 3: yards that quarterback through for last year. I think you
Speaker 3: could win a lot of bets, you know, And if
Speaker 3: he's gonna be there, he's just going to be part
Speaker 3: of that. That's what I think about that player you
Speaker 3: just haven't got And.
Speaker 1: I love it.
Speaker 3: You're so positive. You can't find a player that you're
Speaker 3: down on. You just found one that you haven't drafted yet.
Speaker 3: I love that about the Clayton.
Speaker 1: The next time you will see Clayton Etheridge on this
Speaker 1: stream will be Tuesday, August fourth, ten pm Eastern Time
Speaker 1: in the pros Versus Joe's Number six garbage Time draft,
Speaker 1: where he will be selecting tenth. The other Joe's in
Speaker 1: that league will be Dave Coman, Caleb Alcorn, and Sean Isaacs.
Speaker 1: By the way, Caleb Alcorn joined me last night on
Speaker 1: the road of his high stakes loanow to give his insight.
Speaker 1: Alcorn and Isaacs won the pros Versus Joe's in twenty eighteen.
Speaker 1: Guy in the chat room tonight, Steve g Steve Regalos,
Speaker 1: and David Hubbard will be in that red Arbach probably
Speaker 1: not d red Arbach but another one well, and then
Speaker 1: friends of the show Paul ta Schriff, Peter Puzzo, and
Speaker 1: that the pros that night. Doug Or from FF today,
Speaker 1: Michael Nazarek from FF, Mastermind, John Dagel from Established the Run,
Speaker 1: Evan Silva also from established the Run, Darren Armani Fantasy
Speaker 1: Mojo obviously, and then John Paulson from four for four.
Speaker 1: You are going to be between both Armani and Paulson Clayton,
Speaker 1: how do you like your chances picking from the tenth
Speaker 1: spot on Tuesday, August fourth.
Speaker 4: I like the tenth spot. I mean, everybody wants number one,
Speaker 4: but I like the tenth spot. I can do I
Speaker 4: can go running back, running back, I can go receiver, receiver.
Speaker 4: I can do anything I really want. I can get
Speaker 4: crazy and do something like ceedee lamb and come back
Speaker 4: with pickens and then pick up all the Dallas Cowboys.
Speaker 4: You you could do anything when it when it comes
Speaker 4: to the best ball format.
Speaker 3: But I love the way that I love the way
Speaker 3: that I love that spot. Too, I'm not so sure
Speaker 3: I like being positioned next to Darren Rmani bulky. That's
Speaker 3: like playing golf against the guy that designed the damn course.
Speaker 3: That could be mean, you know how, That's that's not
Speaker 3: the easiest thing in the world to do. Brother. Now,
Speaker 3: is there a pro on the other side of Clayton?
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, the other prou ARMANI will be picking ninth,
Speaker 1: picking eleventh in that draft, as John Paulson from four
Speaker 1: to four.
Speaker 3: You don't have to worry about that, brother, all right?
Speaker 1: Clear, By the way, I should mention this too, The
Speaker 1: reason Clayton was selected randomly and the pros ers as
Speaker 1: Joe's drawing is because he had his f FPC Main
Speaker 1: Event team paid up by the early bird deadline.
Speaker 3: You can still play in the FFPC Main Event this year.
Speaker 1: By the way, every additional team you pick up after
Speaker 1: your first one, you're gonna get six hundred dollars off
Speaker 1: that whether you're drafting live at Planning Hollywood in Las
Speaker 1: Vegas or from the comfort of your own home registered
Speaker 1: now for the FFPC Main Event a million dollars grand
Speaker 1: at MYFFPC dot com.
Speaker 3: Clayton, this was a lot of fun. Man. Really appreciated you.
Speaker 1: Coming on sharing some insight with not only the way
Speaker 1: that you built your team so far this summer, but
Speaker 1: what your plans are for pros versus Joe's in the
Speaker 1: main event. I'll send out the link for stream yard
Speaker 1: the day before your draft, and if you can come
Speaker 1: on and rejoin us on that stream for five ten minutes,
Speaker 1: maybe make a pick or two, we'd certainly appreciate it.
Speaker 3: Absolutely, I appreciate it.
Speaker 1: Guys.
Speaker 3: See glea, thank you Clayton.
Speaker 1: That is Clayton Ethridge, ladies and gentlemen, and by the
Speaker 1: way gluck in your dynasty leagues this year. I know
Speaker 1: Clayton is a big Dynasty player with us Farrel. I
Speaker 1: know you have been adding some more Dynasty squads to
Speaker 1: your FFPC portfolio as well. Dynasty and Empire startups for
Speaker 1: anybody who is looking at adding some more, we have
Speaker 1: those going on right now at MYFFPC dot com.
Speaker 3: They started on a hundred bucks. They go up to five thousand.
Speaker 1: If you want to play Fantasy football year round, like
Speaker 1: Clayton Ethridge and Farrell Elliott, you can do so my FFPC.
Speaker 1: Don't forget about that Empire jackpot. If you win the
Speaker 1: league two years in a row, you get that jackpot
Speaker 1: that's set aside each year in the prize pool. So
Speaker 1: that's a lot of fun too with the Empire stuff.
Speaker 1: My FFPC dot com is where to go for that Pharaoh.
Speaker 1: What what a fun interview it was with Clayton. I
Speaker 1: really like, you know, I don't know when we started this.
Speaker 1: It was several years ago where I started bringing on
Speaker 1: some of these Joe's prior to their worlds versus Joe's Draft,
Speaker 1: and then I feel like, you know, people almost have
Speaker 1: a rooting interest in like you know, like rooting for
Speaker 1: these Joe's, Like, I know that guy. He was on
Speaker 1: Hostak Fantasy Football Hour pulling for him, and then we
Speaker 1: get to revisit with him again. That's always that's always funny.
Speaker 1: Clayton's a guy who's been doing a lot of best
Speaker 1: Ball drafts in preparation for this too, So he is
Speaker 1: going to be a force to be reckoned with on
Speaker 1: August fourth.
Speaker 3: Oh, and he's going to go his own way, which
Speaker 3: makes it fun because when he's drafting you, you know,
Speaker 3: he's not he's not drafting. He's not ADP is the
Speaker 3: great two Pack. Ron Myers says, you draft ADP, you've
Speaker 3: got an average team, you know. So he's he is, uh,
Speaker 3: he's ready. He's yeah, he's more than ready. And I
Speaker 3: think what's going to happen if you keep braining on
Speaker 3: the Joe's before the Joe's Draft, some of the pros
Speaker 3: will not show. And so you know we'll show pros.
Speaker 3: We'll have to either go get more pros or we'll
Speaker 3: have to you know, we'll have to open it back
Speaker 3: up for Joe's. I don't know, but there's gonna be
Speaker 3: some no shows down the line.
Speaker 1: You know, people have said to me is like, I
Speaker 1: shouldn't say he There's been a few people that have
Speaker 1: mentioned this to me, like, you know, pros versus Joe's
Speaker 1: is a lot of fun. But you know, some of
Speaker 1: these pros they don't understand how the f f PC works.
Speaker 1: They don't understand drafting tight end premium scoring there. They
Speaker 1: draft one f f PC team every year and it
Speaker 1: ends up not being that much fun being in it.
Speaker 1: You guys should do Joe's versus Joe's And I said, hey,
Speaker 1: that's cool, that's a cool idea. But we already do
Speaker 1: that with the main event with the Big Gorilla with
Speaker 1: the Baby Gorilla, and then of course the f f
Speaker 1: PC super Flex Bestball Tournament, that's all Joe's versus Joe's.
Speaker 3: That's super Flex Bestball. Very good. Darn. Darren sent me
Speaker 3: an email of you know, all the runner ups. Yeah,
Speaker 3: you know, because I would distribute to socks. Yeah, and
Speaker 3: you know, obviously there's a lot of there. There's a
Speaker 3: lot of barefoot Joe's probs out there. Yeah, there's a
Speaker 3: lot of barefoot pro that super Flex Bestball Tournament too.
Speaker 1: I should mention thirty five bucks to enter hunter k
Speaker 1: Grand Prize for that this year, we've had those filling up,
Speaker 1: both live and slow drafts. Sitting goes for the with
Speaker 1: the thirty second clock. My f f PC dot com
Speaker 1: is where to go for that. If you want to
Speaker 1: get your super flex on with your best ball fix ferrel.
Speaker 3: That's going to wrap up tonight's show. We will continue to.
Speaker 1: Like I said Steve G who's in the chat, he
Speaker 1: and I are both in that kf f f C
Speaker 1: main event that's going on right now, the Training Division.
Speaker 1: There are more main events to join. There's a couple
Speaker 1: of slow drafts filling up, plenty of live stuff that
Speaker 1: starts off Monday, August third will be the first one
Speaker 1: statue of Liberty Division and then they go fast and
Speaker 1: furious in less than a month here with drafts going
Speaker 1: on like seemingly every weekend, multiple drafts, with the Kentucky
Speaker 1: Fantasy Football State Championship, still two divisions filling up for
Speaker 1: the Sweet sixteen Best Ball Tournament, and of course check
Speaker 1: out a smattering of draftmasters at Bestball Leagues there. KFFSC
Speaker 1: dot com is where to go. You can compete against me,
Speaker 1: Steve G and a lot of the other people you
Speaker 1: see on this show.
Speaker 3: It's true bulky and we'll have a full schedule listed
Speaker 3: of online lives. We've been doing online slow since earlier
Speaker 3: in the month of July. I think it even kicked
Speaker 3: off in June. And Steve g by the way, I
Speaker 3: think you're on the clock in that Dynasty League. So
Speaker 3: it's you know, there's just drafting everywhere. It's real good.
Speaker 3: And and you know, a typical cap to mister Lee
Speaker 3: Snyder that came in with a great point tonight. Uh
Speaker 3: and and I think that's I think that's something fantasy
Speaker 3: players should should look at, is when a really talented
Speaker 3: player changes his locale. You know, we talk about guys
Speaker 3: that have underproduced but now have a place, a new
Speaker 3: place to go in a fresh start. But when you
Speaker 3: can take a great veteran player and he says Aja
Speaker 3: typically rocks it in his first year in his new surroundings, Well, yeah,
Speaker 3: and that's that's something to think about. And it's you
Speaker 3: know again, you know, we can we can talk more
Speaker 3: about Pittman on on Friday show.
Speaker 1: The Extra Reps will air ten pm on Friday with myself,
Speaker 1: Farrell Elliott, and Norm Bearns.
