Episode Transcript
0:00Some people are out on the town in Friday night. Um, for me, I'm in the streets, the draft streets, that is, and
0:09I will be here every single night until the football season starts. And then I'll be here every single night until Christmas answering your fantasy
0:17football questions. This draft, I'm going to be doing everything I can to turn $5 into 200,000. I'm gonna be honest with you, it's almost impossible,
0:26especially for somebody who has a monkey brain like myself. But we do get an advantage. And that advantage is we get
0:34to start round one off with Mr. Puka Nikua. Nathan Schmidt would be proud.
0:41And yes, we're going to run it. And I forgot we got chat already telling me I made a mistake here. Um, we are
0:48currently in a regular underdog draft.
0:51We are in the $5 puppy draft, blah blah blah. And Underdog just dropped a new tournament that we probably need to go
0:59ahead and get in to be honest with y'all. Um, I'll run through the tournament that this is. Obviously, y'all already know of this one. This is
1:08the $5 puppy. This is one of the most popular tournaments on Underdog. $5 buyin, million-dollar prize pool. 200k to first, 100K to second, 50,000 to
1:18third, 25,000 to fourth. You can see all the prizes here. How you turn your five bucks into 200k is you got to beat 11
1:24people in your draft. Have to have a top two scoring team in your 12 team draft to make it to the fantasy playoff
1:29tournament. Then in week 15, you have to beat nine people to make it to week 16 where you have to beat nine people. And
1:35in week 17, you have to go up against 374 people. If you beat them, you turn five bucks into 200k. Now, these are
1:43half PPR drafts. Underdog Fantasy has been my only partner since 2021. I've been doing drafts on their platform every single night and since then
1:54they've been half PPR.
1:56Today though, they dropped their first full PPR tournament that will get in right after this one. I'm going to be completely honest with you, it has been
2:03a hectic day. I mean, I know my group chat was buzzing this morning whenever they dropped the full PPR. Everybody was
2:09excited, but I completely forgot about it when we loaded in um here as normal.
2:16Now, let's pull this around. We have Kenneth Walker going 15. Genty making it down to 14. It's a pretty unique combo
2:25getting Jefferson and Genty here at 11 and 14. A mix. Danny says, "What's half and full PPR mean?" So, half PPR is 0.5
2:35points per reception. Full PPR is 1.0 points per reception. So obviously full PPR you're going to be skewing the pass catchers up a little bit more. Half PPR
2:46you're going to be skewing touchdowns up a little bit more. Super interesting to see the fall for the running backs here.
2:51Like Brock Bowers goes 18. Drake London already off the board as well. That means you have both Chase Brown and Derrick Henry available at 19 and 20.
3:01Now if either one of these teams passes on one of those running backs, that means we get to pair them with Puka
3:05Nikkua. But I'm probably not lucky enough to that to happen here. What What are you doing here at 19, buddy? Come on. Load this
3:15pick in. What do we got? It's Chase Brown. Um, so if we're looking at the most common pukina pairings here, I
3:22mean, we don't really have too many like super interesting names that we can look at. A lot of this is going to be chalk
3:29between AG Brown, Nico Collins, George Pickins. If we were looking at my ranking specifically, I have Nico Collins as the pick. I know
3:41you could make a valid valid argument to take AJ Brown there. And honestly, I probably need to go through and I
3:47probably need to pivot those rankings, but I'm going to listen to them for now and we're going to go Nico.
3:54Josh says, "Mason, have you been playing Black Ops 2 or is that not really your thing?" I'm going to be honest. I
4:00haven't played any like real console video games in years.
4:06The video game that I play is I play a mobile video game called Clash Royale.
4:12Rasheed Rice off the board. I think ADP has it Devont Smith, but my rankings are Trey McBride. So, we're going to go
4:19ahead and take Trey McBride here at pick 28. And yeah, we'll start this draft off with Puka, Nico McBride. There's a good
4:26shot we get a running back that we like at the end of the fourth, the beginning of the fifth. But let me move this over.
4:32And I will remind y'all, I know we didn't say this earlier in the stream, that if y'all wanted to draft with us on
4:37Underdog Fantasy, um, right now, if you use code flock, you're going to get $50 added to your account after you play
4:42your first five, and you'll get free access to all the flockfantasy.com best baseball tools that we have, and all of my best rankings. That way,
4:52you're going to have an advantage in these drafts as well. And the link to Underdog Fantasy is always in the description as well as always in the
4:58comment section.
5:00What the heck is going on behind me here? Why is that completely black?
5:07That is crazy.
5:09I have no idea how that happened.
5:12Okay, let me move this around.
5:25Okay, Waddle goes 35. I've been seeing on Twitter a lot of people um really pumping Waddle up these boards.
5:37Super interesting to see him go here at 35.
5:42Andrew says, "How many trophies do you have in Clash?" I think 13,000 something. If I can find my phone around me, I can give you the exact number. Oh
5:49yeah, I got my phone right here. Let's pull up. How many trophies do I have in Clash Royale? I may or may not be better
5:56at Clash Royale than I am at fantasy football, which it's a bummer because you can win um life-changing money in fantasy football. Clash Royale, you
6:05can't win anything. So, my trophy count in Clash Royale is 13,700 at the moment.
6:14Um, but we'll hopefully be able to um transfer some of our Clash Royale skills to get a tournament win on Underdog this off seasonason. I have not
6:25won a tournament on Underdog in quite some time. We are still banking on some of our previous wins, so I can say I
6:31profited 127,000 while drafting underdog teams, but the majority of that profit coming from years ago. Malik Neighbors
6:42making it all the way down to 43. So now we are going to get either Scat or Jacobs. Jacobs goes. So we're going to
6:47take Cam Scataboo, the highest ranked player for me in my ranks. And I feel aokay going through and taking him at
6:52this point. I think if he is healthy, this is a smash given the offensive environment, given what we saw with the production
7:02last year, especially with his receiving role as well.
7:06Now let's move this. Andrew says 300 away from seasonal arenas. You better believe it, my friend. And I'm grinding.
7:11I am absolutely grinding. Minnesota, this is pay to- win game.
7:16I'll be honest with y'all. So, I used to never pay. I I It was a proud thing of mine. I was very cheap. I would
7:27never pay in any video games. I'm not paying for your cosmetic. I'm not paying for this. I'm not paying for that.
7:33However, maybe it's just that I have more money than I used to. Maybe it's running flockfantasy.com. I've realized, hey, can't be the worst thing to pay for
7:43something you really enjoy. So, lately, I've been We're going to get Trevian Henderson here to pair up with Cam Scat.
7:49I do this quite often, actually. And pair the young two secondyear running backs together and hope that we get a breakout from one.
7:58But I have been buying Pass Royale. I'll admit it. I'm not I'm not man enough to shy away from it. I have been buying the
8:07Pass Royale and Clash.
8:10Now, Johnny says, "Just want to say I love watching your nightly streams while studying for my university exams." I really appreciate that, my friend. I
8:17will throw out a quick warning. While I was in college, I blew off classes, blew off internships. I swear to God, this
8:28sounds like it's fake, and I know it sounds like I'm making it up, but I would literally be in a surgical room
8:36where I'm supposed to be watching. I'm supposed to be listening.
8:40Shout out Dr. Deperior. Thank you for letting me shadow you over the summer.
8:44It was absolutely amazing. You were super nice to me. And I should have been smart. I should have taken all I could
8:49in. But I would be in those rooms and I would be literally on my phone sending dynasty
8:59trades instead of listening and instead of learning.
9:04Now, I got very lucky and that my job turned out to be fantasy football. So, me blowing off classes, me in those
9:12surgery rooms and looking at my fantasy teams instead of the surgery that was happening right in front of me. It didn't screw me, but it probably should
9:22have.
9:24I just got very very lucky. So, u if y'all are in college right now and you have a big exam, you got something you
9:31gotta lock into, this live stream will be here in the morning.
9:37I would rather you absolutely lock in and crush your exam.
9:42Okay. Now, Marvin Harrison is my highest ranked player. We are going to go ahead and take him here. If we didn't have
9:47McBride, the elite tight end, I would take the elite quarterback instead.
9:51Actually, no. Jaylen Herz went right before, so we couldn't even take him.
9:54I'm not taking Caleb unstacked either.
9:57Now, let's see. Roman says, "How often does Underdog make $1 drafts?"
10:02Does anybody in the chat have a good answer for that? Frankly, I don't know.
10:05I'd say maybe once a month, but I don't want to say anything that may be false.
10:12Okay.
10:15Now, Jaylen Warren off at 73.
10:18The plan is Jane says, "What was your major?" I got two degrees from the University of Texas. I got one in
10:24biology and one in exercise science.
10:31So I essentially I was premed and then YouTube ended up taking off before I graduated. I still ended up graduating with both degrees. Shout out the
10:40University of Texas, but um clearly I'm not using either of them.
10:48Now, let's swing this over.
10:54Vinnie says, "Are you sure didn't mess with you, Mason? You could be a tenure professor right now instead of the expert drafter you are."
11:01Here's the deal. I wouldn't have Vinnie living in my attic if I paid attention in classes. That's the deal here. Um,
11:09Lee says they have $3 through $5 drafts all the time, but the $1 draft is rare.
11:14Good to know. Good to know.
11:17Okay.
11:20Jaden Reed off at 80.
11:25Zach says, "What's the difference between the season pass motherfer compared to Z's blueprint?" I have no idea what Sal's blueprint consists of,
11:32so I can't speak anything of that. I will say the difference between the season pass and the annual mother flocker on flockfantasy.com is the
11:41season pass is 34 bucks. It gets you access to all of the reddraft tools. So, all of the draft assistants, all of the
11:48draft sheets from all the creators on flockfantasy.com, which include Fantasy Domain, which includes Fantasy Land, Fantasy Stock Exchange, and myself. I
11:57mean, you get all of that for 34 bucks for the entire season. And like I said, the real-time draft assistance for your
12:04Sleeper, ESPN, Yahoo Leagues. You get the weekly rest of season rankings consistently updated from all your favorite creators. Um, you get all of
12:13this for $34 for the entire season. Code Flock, you'll get free start set questions and trade questions as well.
12:20But what you won't get with the season pass for $34 that you would get with the Mother Flocker for 97 is 97 gives you
12:27year-long access to all the Dynasty stuff as well. So, generally what I would recommend is if you're just a regular reddraft player, right, where if
12:36you're like, "Hey man, I'm only in one ESPN league." I would say the $34 season pass is probably perfect for you, but I
12:42wouldn't recommend the $97 annual Um, but if you're like in a dynasty league and a reddraft league and you're going to be using the dynasty
12:50stuff, then that's when you would want the mother flocker. But, and also the $97 [ __ ] comes with a free team
12:57review from me as well if you use code flock. But those would be the primary differences. I would say the free team
13:03review is probably not worth the extra $60ome dollars though. So, I would mainly just recommend the $34 thing for most people watching here because again,
13:14if you're just a regular reap player, you're not going to need the dynasty tools, you're not going to need the best
13:18ball stuff. But if you're very serious, you're in dynasty leagues as well, then maybe at that point you consider going through and getting the [ __ ]
13:27Um, for me, I'm going to take Patrick Mahomes here for our first quarterback at 93. Again, the expectation right now is Mahomes is starting week one. That's
13:35pretty much guaranteed to be priced in if you're looking at the sports books.
13:40Okay. And yeah, I see people in the chat typing season pass. Oh, let me check to see if I have the giveaway set up. I am
13:47very sorry. I don't have the season pass giveaway set up right now. Let me type in nightbot.com. Let's go through and
13:54let's set up the season pass. I just set up that season pass giveaway. So now, if you want to enter in to win a free
14:00flockfantasy.com season pass, you got to do two things. One, drop a like on the live stream and two, type the word
14:08season pass into the live chat. And if you do those two things, you'll be entered in to win a free flockfantasy.com season pass.
14:16Okay.
14:19Now, after we take Mahomes, it's not that big of a surprise what we want to see. We want to see Xavier Worthy make
14:25it back to us so we can have the stack, which is exactly what does happen. So, we get Xavier Worthy. Here's our fourth
14:30wide receiver. I'm be honest with you, I really like the team.
14:33Like we are sitting with Patrick Mahomes at quarterback stacked with Worthy.
14:38Wide receiver we have Pooky Bear, Nico Collins, Marvin Harrison, and Xavier Worthy. So Puka one, Nico 2, Marv three, Worthy four. I really like the wide
14:48receiver room. We have the elite tight end with McBride. Running back we have Cam Scat, Trevian Henderson. So some low floor high upside running backs paired
14:56with a low ceiling high floor running back and Tony Pard. So I like the team a lot.
15:03especially compared to some of the absolute garbage teams that we've been drafting as of late.
15:09Now, let's see. Mix Danny says, "Please never call him Pooky Bear again."
15:16Okay, [sighs] let me know in the chat.
15:20Yes or no to the Pooky Bear for Pukanua.
15:25Yes or no?
15:28I'm a man of the people. Y'all tell me a hard no, I'm gonna listen.
15:35But you got to let me know.
15:38Okay. Now, we are clearly hoping that we get a quarterback making a back to us here still.
15:46We got Yes. No. Yes. No. Yes. No.
15:50Always. So, literally a 50/50.
15:56No. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes.
15:59Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. No. It looks like most people are on the yes for Pooky Bear.
16:06Looks like it is.
16:08Now, Romeo Dos Reyes says, "Is there going to um is there a way to change your rankings to PPR in the best tool
16:14for the new PPR underdog drafts coming out?" I'm probably going to be honest. I think the adjustment from half PPR to
16:20full PPR isn't that big of a deal where I'm not going to go through and change my rankings in a major way. Um, my
16:28rankings here have KD as the top name.
16:33Sure, we'll take KD. We're going to be done at tight end once we do though.
16:38Like, don't get me wrong, like when I'm on the clock, maybe I'll make minute changes with my rankings from like a
16:46half PPR to a full PPR um manually in my minds like say the Jonathan Taylor versus
17:00Christian McCaffrey example in a happy BR format probably going to prefer JT or at least I would be more willing to
17:10prefer JT. In a full PBR, I'm going to prefer McAffrey. So, there going to be minor changes like that. Obviously, in a
17:15full PBR format, I'd be less excited about Derrick Henry, but nothing crazy enough where I think I'm going to make some massive update to the um draft
17:25assistant on underdog. specifically for the reddraft draft sheets. Obviously, we have those draft sheets that make all the minor changes to your exact league
17:33formats, but the underdog PPR drafts are like 1% of the underdog drafts completed and 99% of the underdog drafts are half
17:44PPR. So, I'm really sorry, my friend. I know if I was the absolute best person ever at my job, we would have every
17:50variation for underdog drafts as well, but I'm just going to be honest with you, in terms of the totem pole of
17:57things that are the most important for us to work on, um, getting out new ranking sets for every draft slate that
18:05comes out on underdog probably not going to be the top priority.
18:10Rise says, would you consider yourself an industry plant? Let's think through it. I live streamed. I'm sorry. I uploaded multiple videos every single
18:19day for years without anybody watching them.
18:24I organically grew to be the most subscribed to YouTube channel outside of the fantasy footballers with one partner
18:35the entire time. Actually, one partner that joined me after I had already uploaded thousands of videos and done hundreds of live streams. and no media
18:45partners I've ever worked with.
18:48So, I would say probably not. I would not consider myself one.
18:55Okay. Vinnie says, "Who knows? Mason might actually draft Shakir in PPR."
19:01Maybe. Maybe.
19:04Okay. Now, Jaylen Coker off at 135.
19:08Dallas Gutter goes 136. When we have McBride and KD and we're done at tight end, we're hoping to see tight ends off.
19:18Now, let's swing this around. I don't want to say anything until we're on the clock, but I definitely have a couple
19:24ideas of what we'd want at 141.
19:27Moisty says, "That chicken sandwich guy might be an industry plant, though."
19:30That is damn true. That chicken sandwich guy's on my radar. I may I may throw him on flockfantasy.com and hit him up and
19:38give him a promo code. CJ Stroud off the board. Um that sucks for us. I was wanting both Willis or Shroud. Obviously
19:44with Shroud we have the Nico stack.
19:46We'll go ahead and we'll take Tyron Tracy here and pair him up with Cam Scataboo and we will monopolize the backfield touches for the Giants. Let me
19:54look at the draft assistant and see what it says in terms of should we be drafting another running back because now we have Scat Henderson Pard
20:03Aaron Jones RB4 Tracy RB5. We have monopolized those backfield touches for the Giants. Yeah, it's actually looking like five running backs would be the
20:13ideal for us and we could push up to eight wide receivers now. Like obviously we go wide receiver, wide receiver out
20:19the gate, but since then we've only taken Marvin Xavier Worthy. And looking at the math, I think it's pretty clear we want to go three quarterbacks, five
20:25running backs, eight wide receivers, and two tight ends.
20:29Okay.
20:32Now, Salute says, "As a season pass holder, I think it would be a good idea to make a tutorial or something showing
20:37new users how to install and use the draft tool. And does the draft tool autoupdate based on settings?" Yes, sir.
20:42It does auto update based on your league settings. Um, and I completely agree with you. We should go through and make
20:49that draft um, tutorial for the season pass people just to make sure they're getting the most out of the um, draft
21:00sheets as well as the draft extensions.
21:02I am waiting because the dev team's about to push some pretty serious upgrades to those draft tools, um, like the real-time draft assistants as well
21:11as the draft sheets, and I don't want to make a tutorial and then all of a sudden 3 days later, it's no longer relevant.
21:18So, I'm just waiting a little bit of time for the devs to go ahead and push those updates. This team here
21:26has one of the best live grades I have seen in a long time. They went Lam Walker, Higgins, Lad. They get Lamar
21:36Jackson at 63, Justin Herbert at 87 is sack with Lad McConi. Yeah, this team here at 10 is incredible.
21:46But yeah, I agree with you. I'll make that tutorial for y'all so y'all can get the most out of the draft tools on the
21:51site. Um, again, the devs are just going to consistently be upgrading them and we have a pretty big upgrade coming soon,
21:57so I'm maybe being a little lazy. I don't have to record a tutorial right now and then re-record it in just a
22:05couple days.
22:08Okay.
22:12The pawn god says you should make a flock fantasy Clash Royale clan. We already have one, my friend. Look up Flock Fantasy on Clash Royale. It's
22:19there. It is there. We got a bunch of members from the YouTube in it with us.
22:25And we also have my family in there with us as well.
22:30my two younger brothers, my little sister. We are rocking the Flock Fantasy Clash Royale clan.
22:38Okay. Um, in terms of quarterbacks, like there's a chance we get Mendoza on the way back around and we have the double
22:44stack for Brassette later on. So, we'll just take Trey Harris here. Y'all know I'm not a big Trey Harris guy. We do
22:49have the week 17 bringback with the Chiefs, though. Um, last year we faded Trey Harris hard. We made Quinton Johnson our most drafted player. Back
22:57then, Trey Harris would get drafted ahead of Quinton Johnston. Obviously, it's been a long time since then. Now, Quinton Johnston in this draft going to
23:06pick 77, Trey Harris going at 165. I think these costs are way more appropriate than they used to be. And now we just have two quarterbacks
23:16getting ripped here with Mendoza and Gino.
23:26Okay, Cameron says, "Where do you think LeBron's going?" I check like the updated odds pretty much every single
23:37day of Okay, we just need quarterback points. We have no option. We're just going to take Rogers here and we will
23:41get stacking options with Rogers later.
23:43We can go like Jeremy Bernard.
23:46But in terms of where LeBron's going, I check pretty much every single day what the updated odds are. I'll pull up what
23:54they currently sit at because I think it is super interesting. Let me know in the chat where do you want LeBron to go? And
24:01obviously you can put in there that you don't care. But let me know, do you care where LeBron goes? And if you do, where
24:10do you want him to go? Now, I'm going to say something pretty controversial. I completely understand that this is going to get me some hate.
24:20I I get it, right? You don't have to tell me.
24:24I know public opinion.
24:27For whatever reason, a lot of people hate LeBron James. They hate him.
24:33I love LeBron James.
24:36I It's a sad world we live in.
24:41That's immediately going to get 10 people I'm not not 10 people, 10% of the people in the live chat hating me. I'll
24:48never hate you for liking somebody, especially not a basketball player or a football player. You can tell me you love Dak Prescott. I don't care. You
24:54love who you love. Um, for me, I like LeBron James a lot. I would like him to go somewhere, have success,
25:03and I want the best for him. Okay? I know obviously he doesn't know who I am, but I want the best for the dude. So,
25:09the top three right now, looking at just like where people are putting money on it, Cleveland has a 32% chance. Golden
25:17State a 28% chance, Miami a 25% chance.
25:22So, it's pretty even across Cleveland, Golden State, and Miami.
25:27But, um I don't know. I I I don't really care where he goes. I just hope it works out.
25:39Okay.
25:42Now, James says, "MJ is the goat, my friend." I didn't say anything of who was the goater or Don. And this is why
25:47I'm talking about like you can't say LeBron James' name without people getting upset with you. All I said is I'm wishing him the best. I hope he does
25:55well.
25:56And now we got people in the chat hating on him. It's a very interesting dynamic. Happens with very few players,
26:07very very few players across NBA, NFL or anything.
26:12But let me see. Brassette is obviously going to be my pick here. Yes, you can make a strong argument that Carson Beck's the
26:21starter by the time we get to week eight, but this team has McBride. This team has Marv. If it's going to be any
26:28good, the Arizona Cardinals probably have to be fine, which is unlikely. But if they're fine, like if Brazette can repeat what he did
26:38last season at this cost, he's an absolute smash. We're going to take Ted Hurst here at 196.
26:48And after we take Ted Hurst at 196, we probably still need to take another wide receiver looking at the team. So, we'll
26:56queue up someone. Um, we can queue up Taekquon Thornton if we want. I like Kahan Booty, too, just because I like
27:01the idea of Booty getting traded somewhere. I think he's a talented player. Um, we can go through and queue up Cooper Cup.
27:09I'll queue up Darnell Mooney. We can queue up Tyreek Hill, Jacobe Lane, Jack Besh, and
27:21Caleb Douglas. And then we'll go ahead and we'll bounce into another draft.
27:25This next draft is going to be a PPR draft.
27:31So, this is the new underdog tournament that just dropped.
27:36They have never dropped a PPR draft before. And I'm actually going to change the title of this live stream to a PPR
27:43mock draft.
27:45And I'll be interested to see how the ADP and stuff changes, how these draft rooms change.
27:55Do wide receivers get more expensive?
27:59Do running backs get cheaper?
28:03We'll see.
28:10Okay, updated the title to PPR mockdraft and we're going to be at 10. So, typically 10 is a range in which you're
28:18grabbing one wide receiver like Lam or Jefferson then taking a running back in round two. For me, with it being a PPR
28:24league, like just to be honest with y'all, I'm going to make minor changes, but I'm not going to do anything like
28:29crazy. Like you can go through and you can look at how the draft sheets on flockfantasy.com get updated like dependent on your league
28:38settings dependent on if you're playing in a half PPR or a full PPR format. So like let's go through and let's look at
28:47this. So um with this being a nonPPR league, right? Say you go through and you put the nonPR settings on and you
28:55want to go through and you want to add my rankings here. Um, you'll see that I have running backs skewed way up these
29:02drafts. Like I have running backs at the very top, wide receivers pushed down dramatically.
29:10But when you switch that over to a full PPR, then obviously it's very, very different. We have a lot of these wide
29:16receivers near the top.
29:19But the change from like a half PPR to a full PPR is not as large, at least for me.
29:27nonPPR to full PPR, massive, but half PPR, you're already in the happy medium between the two.
29:37Okay, so Puganua off the board at four.
29:49Cal says, "Disaster, Alberta just banned UD and DK. just drove to BC and maxed out the slow puppy in the eliminator to
29:57have 300 slow drafts going. I'm sorry to hear that, my friend. Officially going to be in slow draft hell, but I'm
30:04wishing you the best of luck.
30:07Now, Nick says, "Saw Bejon go to pick four in my first PPR draft." That's insane to make that type of adjustment.
30:17Like there may be people that in a full PPR league adjust Jefferson ahead of Jonathan Taylor. I'm not even going to
30:24make that adjustment. Like I understand that. And again, you can look at the draft sheets on flockfantasy.com for like your regular reddraft leagues. And
30:31of course, we are making minor changes from a half PPR to a full PPR format, but nothing that is that crazy. Like I'm still taking
30:42Jonathan Taylor if we can at 10.
30:48OG says, "Just signed up using code flock. Let's go." Thank you, my friend.
30:52Much love. I really do appreciate you.
30:56So, Amari Hampton is going to be my next pick here. Um ADP as it is Barkley. I have Hampton ranked ahead of him.
31:05Um let's see. Greg says, "Doesn't pull PBR push down quarterback value because most good running backs and quarter running backs wide receivers catch
31:12passes?" Yes, sir. If you're looking at the draft sheets on flockfantasy.com, you will see that if you're playing in a nonPR format, um not only am I pushing
31:21the running backs up my rankings, but I'm also pushing the quarterbacks up as well.
31:26So like quarterbacks get pushed up in a non PPR format because every other position is going to be scoring fewer points in comparison to a full PPR
31:37league where QB's their scoring is going to remain unaffected. So just the percentage of your starting lineup output from a week- toeek perspective
31:45that's going to be um so I'm sorry I just read something but
31:57anyway from like a week toe perspective in a nonPR format quarterback scoring is going to be higher than it would be in a
32:02full PPR league. So yes, if you're using the draft sheets, you'll see nonPPR league push quarterbacks up a decent amount. Half PPR league, it's a minor
32:10jump. And then full PPR league, they're still very important, don't get me wrong, but not as important because full PBR format, every position is going to
32:20be catching the ball, but QB. So just from a overall week-toeek perspective with their scoring, they're going to be a little less.
32:31Unlikely says, got in a different lobby.
32:32My start is Taylor and Hampton too.
32:34Well, my friend, let's see how this goes.
32:38Um, Grady says, "I tried making an account on flockfantasy.com, but I never got my verification code. However, I got your breakout wide receiver email. What
32:44should I do? I'll just try to log into your account." My guess would be you already have an account, my friend.
32:53Okay. Kenna says, "MJ, Kareem, Kobe, Shaq, Duncan, Magic, Bird, Wilt, Curry, KD." That's 10 right there. I have no idea what this is in reference to. If
33:04it's in reference to me saying I like LeBron and I hope he has success with wherever he goes, that's weird for you
33:11to then bring up random players like that. Um, now Ibuka Higgins both off.
33:20Let me swing this over full PBR format.
33:22I'm not going ETN here.
33:26I would honestly prefer Josh Allen over.
33:28We're going to go Allen. This is going to be a really weird spot, especially in a full PPR league.
33:35Okay, I'm kind of nervous about this draft.
33:40We'll see how it runs. But Will says, "How high should I draft quarterbacks in a standard plus 0 point I mean plus
33:490.05 points per passing yard instead of 0.04?" So essentially, you're getting one point per 20 passing yards rather than one point per 25, which was
33:58actually the first fantasy football league I ever played in had that passing format. One minute difference I would say is quarterbacks like Stafford would
34:07get a bump there. The traditional pocket passing guys that maybe aren't going to have a ton of rushing and maybe you
34:12would want to move down a quarterback that relies a little more on rushing touchdown volume like Jaylen Herz. But if it's a standard like nonPPR format
34:21where the skill guys aren't getting those additional points per reception and on top of it you're getting the small bump in terms of passing scoring.
34:31Um so ADP as it does as Lad Maki. I have Tedo McMillan ranked 10 of them. So I'm going to take Tat at 39. Um I would push
34:40quarterbacks up a decent amount. Like I think Josh Allen's probably a second round pick in that format.
34:47Okay, now let's
34:56pull this around.
35:02Um, Jesse says, "Do you know why the ESPN ADP and Flock Fantasy's ADP tool jumps from 3669?" We actually just got
35:09that flagged that that broke yesterday and the devs are looking into it right now and hopefully it's fixed this weekend, my friend. Let me pull up my
35:16Discord chat and see if anything is up to date here.
35:24Okay.
35:46Okay.
36:15JMO goes 48. I'm sorry. messaging the devs about that again, asking if we have an update there because again it was on
36:21our radar.
36:43This team at three is interesting going tight in tight end with McBride and Loveland.
36:52And yeah, honestly, this looks like a very regular underdog draft. Jonathan Taylor falling to 10 is something that typically doesn't happen. But
37:03outside of that fall, is there anything here that looks weird with this being a PPR league? Maybe Rice going at 22.
37:14I legitimately don't see anything else that's weird about this draft compared to just the regular underdog drafts we're in.
37:26Okay. Christian Watson goes 56.
37:35Kenna says, "Mason, why do you have Henderson over Bucky? Can you expand that a bit?" mainly worried about the Bucky injury stuff. If we get to
37:42training camp and Bucky Irving's 100% healthy, then Bucky is definitely going to rise in the rankings.
37:50Okay, we're going to take Carell Tate.
37:52He's my highest ranked player.
37:53Obviously, we wouldn't consider Lamar Jackson when we have Josh Allen. Maybe I consider Lamar if we get him in round six, but probably not.
38:02It's bearded says Chase Brown and 12's a little early. Yeah, Chase Brown 12 is definitely early, but that's like not PPR relevant, you know? It's not like
38:10we're seeing wide receivers get pushed up dramatically because it's a PPR league.
38:19Okay, Jordan Tyson goes 61.
38:34Damn. Maybe the quarterbacks are falling because Lamar's in round six at this point.
38:42And obvious Okay, thank god Lamar goes.
38:44I would have felt like just a complete dummy if Lamar made it to us. In a full PPR format, I'm probably going to go Tyler
38:51Warren over Jaren Price. It's maybe one minor change that I'd make, especially knowing that we have Taylor and Hampton already at running back.
39:01Mark says, "Is the flockfantasy.com extension available for mockdrafts as well?" Yes, sir, it is. Um, anytime you're in a draft on ESPN
39:12Sleeper or Yahoo, you should just be able to open up the extension in your Google Chrome browser.
39:19All right, so now after we see Tyler Warren go, we do have a couple more quarterbacks with May going to the AG
39:25Brown team. We have Burrow going unstacked there at seven and Jaden Daniels going unstacked at 67.
39:35All right.
39:38And yeah, we have a decent amount of people saying season pass in the chat. I will remind y'all if y'all are just now
39:42coming in, we are giving away a free flockfantasy.com season pass. How we do every single night on the stream. All you got to do is two things. One, drop a
39:50like on the live stream. And then two, type season pass into the live chat. You do those two things, we are going to
39:57enter you in to win a free flockfantasy.com season pass.
40:03Robert says, "Are you linked with the NFL fantasy app?" No, sir. I don't want to say anything with 100% confidence here because I could very easily be
40:11wrong. But if somebody else wants to confirm in the chat so I don't look like the dumbest person on the planet, that'd
40:16be nice. I believe the ESPN fantasy app is just going to be on ESPN this year. I could be wrong, but
40:26I don't think ESPN I don't think NFL fantasy is going to be a thing. I think it's just going to be ESPN.
40:35I could be wrong. Again, please double check that before you take my word as gospel there. But that's the word that
40:41we got, which is why we're not really planning on doing anything with NFL fantasy.
40:51Okay, Hubard off the board. It'd be nice to get a wide receiver. We'll see if we get Alec Pierce. I mean, we're all in on
40:56the Indianapolis Colts.
40:59Lance says, "Just wondering, will you ever change your mind about M um Genty over James Cook?" I mean, they're in the
41:04same tier for me. If you want to make an argument for James Cook, I'm not gonna fault you for it at all. Obviously,
41:08James Cook's been significantly better.
41:10Um, again, just if we go back and look at what we have with the updated sports book projections for this next season,
41:16the Raiders supposed to be the most improved offense in the league.
41:22Okay, Alec Pierce goes Tucker Craft off the board. I'm not going to take Herbert here. We'll take Courtland Sun.
41:36Okay.
41:40And what are these teams after us going to do? I'm assuming one of these teams after us is lad. No, actually, no.
41:46Neither does Reed goes 83.
41:54My highest ranked players are Herbert and then Addison.
42:02Vinnie says he has loud. Where's Vinnie in this draft?
42:08Vinnie's not even Oh, no. Vinnie's right next to us. I didn't even notice that, my guy. And I bet you get Vlad on the
42:15way back. I'm sorry, Herbert on the way back. Actually, Addison goes, I may take Herbert from you.
42:21Harvey off.
42:24We'll take Chris Godwin just because it's a PPR draft and we don't fall too far behind at wide receiver. If I had
42:31Lad, I would take Herbert here for sure, but we're already sitting with Josh Allen. We don't have Vlad Maki.
42:37Obviously, we don't have Quinton Johnston. And I don't want to box myself into having to take Aronda Gadston as well as
42:49I don't know, Trey Harris later in this draft. I'm fine taking them if they fall out of value to me, but I don't want to
42:55be in a draft room in which I feel like if I don't get a Ronda Gadston, I'm cooked.
43:03Okay.
43:13All right. Mahomes goes 91. Party goes 92. That's to the Mike Evans team, so that makes a lot of sense.
43:26Downs goes 93.
43:35Who used my name? Says you were just drafting receivers out of fear. Credible analysis, my friend. Thank you for it.
43:43What did Godwin show? Okay, let's go ahead and let's quickly pull up what Chris Godwin did before his injury.
43:52We are rocking the Ibuka jersey. Well, I'll say one thing. Godwin week 17 dropped 23 points this past season. And then also in 2024 before his injury,
44:0119.69 fantasy points per game and he was the wide receiver two in fantasy points per game. So maybe we got a short memory
44:08here, but yeah, this is what Godwin showed in 2024, my friend. Just the wide receiver two overall in fantasy. Not much. Not much.
44:19Switch says, "Bro, Domino's is the best thin crust." I actually had a pizza myself for dinner tonight from Homes Slice Pizza in Austin, Texas.
44:29Shout out Homes Slice. It was divine.
44:34Compliments to the chef if the chef is happening to watch this. If you made a large pepperoni, my guy, you absolutely
44:41crushed it.
44:44Okay, Kenneth Gainwell goes 105.
44:48Awkward spot here. If we take Harold Fannon, it's probably our last tight end. I think we're going to go Jacobe just because it looks like he's the last
44:56wide receiver in this tier and there's a team after us that only has three wide receivers.
45:01So, I think there are a couple different players that can make it back to us at 111. And based on the teams between our
45:08next two picks and the way that the tiers look to break, I think Jacob's like the only player I couldn't see making it back to us at
45:17111.
45:19Okay. Kyler goes 108.
45:27George KD goes 109.
45:37All right.
45:44What are you doing here, brother? Goes Blondelle. So, we can take Jonathan Brooks. I see some people in the chat want us to take Brooks.
45:51We're already kind of in on this Carolina Panthers offense. We have Tedo and McMillan. We could go Brooks and we can take Bryce Young later. I I
45:58generally just like taking Bo Knicks here. We also have the stack with Sutton. And we're going to take Bo Knicks. Then if we use the draft
46:04assistant, you'll see that we are done at taking two quarterbacks once we do that. So, we'll go B. I think we're
46:10going to have a pretty big teard drop at quarterback by the time we're on the clock again. But, I could very easily
46:14see an argument to take Jonathan Brooks there. Not going to fault anybody at all if they want to.
46:20Ben says, "Hey, Mason, looking to get into fantasy football content creation.
46:23Any tips and how long until regular people start caring about fantasy football?" Um, very soon. I mean, I would say August and September is
46:29probably the peak for fantasy, my friend.
46:33I would say a couple tips for anybody watching this that wants to start making YouTube videos, Tik Tok videos, Instagram, real videos, whatever you
46:42want to do. I'm just I'm very biased from my own experience, but I'll give you my experience and I'll tell you what I have
46:52learned. So, I started making fantasy football videos for fun. At the time, I was not aware of anybody who made fantasy football videos that it was
47:04actually a job. I thought it was impossible to make a job. I told everybody that I knew, "Hey, I'm doing this. It's just for fun." Yeah, there
47:12are YouTubers that play video games that it's their job, right? And it makes a lot of money for them, but fantasy
47:19football is not big enough. That'll never be uh me.
47:23But I absolutely love doing it. I didn't know anybody even made fantasy football YouTube videos at the time. I definitely listen to a lot of Dynasty fantasy
47:30football podcast, but I didn't know there were any fantasy football videos on YouTube. Like the only videos I watched on YouTube were like Fortnite
47:38videos and videos of people working out.
47:40I was like, I watch YouTube all the time at the time, but those were the only two things I watched. And I watched poker
47:45videos. That's a lie. I watched a lot of poker videos, but those were like the three things that I watched. Fantasy
47:49football really wasn't on YouTube at the time I started, but I just did it for fun because I absolutely loved it. And
47:56if I would have started doing it with the intention of making money or thinking like, oh, this is possibly gonna be a job, I would have quit so
48:08early on because of course I was horrible at it for years. Nobody watched it for years. But because I was just
48:17strictly doing it for fun, it didn't matter at all that nobody was watching.
48:21It didn't matter at all that I was horrible at it. It didn't matter at all that I was making zero dollars because
48:26again, I was just doing it for fun. So, I would say that if you're going to get into it, whether it's live streaming,
48:32videos, Tik Tok, YouTube shorts, Instagram reels, no matter what it is, you should expect to be horrible at it
48:41at the beginning. If you go and you play tennis for the first time ever, the first time you step on the court, you're
48:49going to be horrible.
48:53If you go into the gym and lift weights for the first time ever, first time you get under a bench press, you're going to
48:58be extremely weak. You're probably going to be horrible.
49:02But if you really enjoy it and you keep doing it every single day over and over and over again eventually, you're going
49:08to get pretty good at it. So, I would say if you're wanting to make fantasy football videos or really any type of
49:15videos anywhere, get into it for the right reason. Get into it because you love it. Don't expect anything to come from it at all.
49:24Like I probably made over a thousand videos before I made any type of meaningful money from it again. And I never even knew I could
49:34make money from it.
49:36Um but and whenever I started I was horrendous. Like I was in my college closet
49:44making um videos and I couldn't speak.
49:48That will probably be your experience too. But the beautiful thing about starting is if I make a video and it's garbage, a lot of people are going to
49:59see it and I'm gonna get absolutely clowned on from it. But if you're starting from nothing, you can make a garbage video, nobody's going to see it.
50:09So nobody's gonna like it won't matter, you know, and just naturally as you get better over time, more and more people will start to see
50:19it.
50:22And the YouTube algorithm is really good in that way. So, um, the main the main advice that I have
50:32is you need to start today because you're going to be very bad at it for a very long time and you need a lot of
50:37practice. Nobody's going to watch you at the beginning, but that's a good thing.
50:41And the more you do it, the better you're going to get. The more people are going to watch and it will just
50:45naturally pick up and get bigger and bigger and bigger and bigger. It's going to take a lot of time for you to get
50:51good at it, but that's good because if you're just doing it for fun, who cares? Now, if you're doing it because you think you're going
50:59to make money doing it and you think it's going to be like a really popular thing, you're probably going to burn out
51:04and you're probably not going to become successful because you're going to get upset when you're uploading video 300 and nobody's watching it.
51:12Again, that is my experience. Maybe I was just horrible and maybe your experience is going to be, hey, I'm goated at this. I upload a
51:24video and everybody watches it. Maybe that's your experience. It wasn't mine.
51:28But hopefully that helps.
51:31Okay.
51:34Now, um Red says, "Are these mock drafts or how does this all work? Are you setting like 10,000 lineups or am I
51:40done?" Completely valid question, my friend. So, these are best drafts. So, what happens with best ball drafts is after you draft your team, your lineup
51:49is locked. There are no waiverwire moves. You're not actually submitting your starting lineup. The best possible starting lineups being submitted for you
51:57at the end of every single week. So, like an example of this, if this was a regular fantasy football league, um I
52:02would be starting Tedo McMillan, Carnell Tate, and Courtland Sutton in my three wide receiver slots week one. However, there's a chance that Carnell Tate has
52:11two receptions for 31 receiving yards and only scores five points. And there's a chance Shahed has an 80 yard receiving touchdown. Maybe I didn't know that was
52:18going to happen before the week started, but if that happens, then automatically Shahed's going to slide into my starting lineup over Carell Tate. So that's why
52:26the time commitment is zero during the season. But that's also why this isn't going to replace your main fantasy football league, right? It's just meant
52:33to be some extra fun on the side. So hopefully that explains. I can answer any more questions that you have, my
52:38friend. But, uh, that's also again how I'm able to draft hundreds of teams every offseason, and that's how I profited over 127,000 in these drafts
52:47myself. Um, again, yeah, Swiss says, "Basketball isn't real fantasy, but it's cool." A great way to put it, right? And this isn't going to replace your ESPN
52:55league. This isn't going to replace your Yahoo League. It's just meant to be some extra fun on the side. I would like
53:01Don't try to replace your real fantasy football league with this. I'm not replacing my real fantasy football league with this, but um I can't manage
53:11300 fantasy teams. I can't submit 300 lineups through the course of the season, but I can draft 300 basketball teams and then have my main reddraft
53:19league that I care most about and I can manage that one during the year.
53:24Okay.
53:26But hopefully TWW says, "Don't listen to the people saying you can't do it. If you want to
53:37do it, do it. Don't listen to the negative people. They're just scared."
53:41Here's the general thing I would say when it comes to content in fantasy football.
53:47I am somebody who runs a fantasy football website called flockfantasy.com.
53:53What we do is we look for very talented creators that have an audience that put out good stuff that we can partner with
54:01that we can get them to put their products on flockfantasy.com, right? And we can go through and partner and give them a code to the site. That way when
54:09you sign up and you get like the $34 flockfantasy.com season pass, not only do you get my stuff, but you get access
54:15to all the other stuff from all the other YouTubers, right?
54:19So, I would like to say that I'm somebody that's very tuned in to like the YouTube community of fantasy football content creators,
54:28and there aren't too many there aren't that many that are making incredible
54:37wellressearched videos.
54:43Like, it is far from being like too late for you to do something. And with the way the
54:54algorithms work right now, if you come in and you start making videos and live streams that are clearly better than mine,
55:02more researched, presented in a better way, a better personality, more entertaining, um, and more helpful,
55:12you will quickly start to get more views than I do. That's just the way that these algorithms work.
55:20If people like your videos more, you're going to get more views. So for anybody watching this, regardless of what the YouTube category
55:29is, I can speak on fantasy football because I feel like there would be few people in the space that
55:37know about it as much as I do.
55:41We are far from the point where there are too many good fantasy football creators. And I would encourage anybody that loves fantasy football and loves
55:47making videos, go for it.
55:51Okay, now let's see. Antonio Williams off the board. We're going to take Tank Bigby.
55:58Maybe he's a little less exciting in a full PPR format, but to get him here as our fifth running back's ideal. And let
56:04me see. Yeah, we need two more wide receivers and then we need one more tight ends.
56:14Dig says, "YouTube doesn't reward people with more subscribers anymore. It's video to video now." I would definitely agree with that to a certain extent. I'm
56:21not going to pretend like I won't have an advantage having a bunch of subscribers, but say like 5 10 years ago
56:31when most people watched YouTube videos through their subscription feed, you would have no shot if you started a YouTube channel to compete with me for
56:39views, right? But now things are different. If you make better videos, whether it's from an entertainment,
56:49research, presentation perspective, whatever it may be, generally with fantasy videos, what people want are very wellressearched videos that are generally helpful. Um, that also have a
56:59little bit of entertainment value. You don't need to be the most entertaining person of the world, but you need to be
57:03able to present your val. You need to be able to present an argument in an engaging way with good research behind
57:11it. That's what I would say it's going to take to be like a good fantasy football YouTuber, Tik Tocker, whatever the hell you want to call it. Um,
57:22but like the way the algorithms work is you do that better than me and maybe if you do it 1% better than
57:30me, it's not going to matter. But if you do that twice as good as I do, you'll be bigger than than me in a couple football
57:38seasons.
57:41Okay.
57:45Now, but here's my name says, "What's the thought process behind Greg Dolich?" The
57:55thought process is pretty simple. There are no wide receivers in Miami.
58:01So, if we're looking for just pass catchers here at the tight end position, Dolich could be somebody that has a floor with the targets per game.
58:10Obviously, from a talent perspective, I actually don't think he's the most talented tight end here, but just target competition, there's no tight end in the
58:17NFL that has less. Maybe Brock Bowers, but um Reed says, "Why are we saving season pass? It's people going through and
58:27entering to win the free flock fantasy.com season pass. And I will actually give that away now. So, it's your last chance to enter in for the
58:35giveaway. If you want to get a free flockanty.com season pass, drop a like on the stream and then type the word
58:41season pass into the live chat. And let me swing this around and we will get this set up um to give y'all away one
58:51for free.
58:53Okay.
58:56me delete that. We'll put this in.
59:01Matthew says, "Your girlfriend said I'm already bigger than you." Well, here's the deal, my friend. That may sound impressive, but
59:11it's not. Okay?
59:15Being bigger than me is a pretty low bar.
59:21I hate to say it, but it's the God honest truth.
59:26Okay, now I will say it's rude for my girlfriend to be disclosing that information. I'm going to have to have a
59:31talk to her about that, but it's not as impressive as it sounds.
59:36Now, let's go ahead and let's give away this free flock fantasy.com season pass.
59:42Let's spin this.
59:45We'll see who gets it.
59:52It is I am Iron Man 123.
59:57Give me Troy Franklin. Get us the stack with Bo Knicks as our last wide receiver. Um I am iron man 123. Please let me know what your
60:06flockfantasy.com username is. I'd be super happy to send that over to the devs to get you a free flockfantasy.com season pass. Overall, I actually really
60:15like this team. I know the wide receiver production, we don't have like an incredible group of guys at the top end,
60:20but we do have a considerable amount of depth. Like I have I like Sutton as a wide receiver three. I like Godwin as a
60:25wide receiver four. Jacobe is a wide receiver five. Shahit is a wide receiver six. So like a regular fantasy league, maybe the top end wide receiver
60:32production isn't great. But from a baseball perspective, I think we were able to accomplish like the wide receiver points with quantity over
60:40quality. Running back, we have the anchors with Taylor and Hampton. We have some outs with like potentially a starter with Chris Rodriguez and then
60:48Pacheco and Bixsby maybe more so as traditional handcuffs. Quarterback obviously we have a ton of production with Allen and Bo Knicks and tight end
60:55we look pretty good with Tyler Warren Ronda Gatson and Dulas. I don't hate either of the teams that we drafted today
61:01but I will remind y'all that if you wanted to get into one of these drafts with us um y'all can go to the link in
61:10the live chat description comment section. code flock will get 50 bucks added to your account after you play your first five and it'll get you access
61:16to the flockfantasy.com best baseball tools and my best rankings for free as well. And then if y'all wanted to get the flock fantasy.com season pass for
61:26the time being still only 34 bucks. It's going to be the easiest way that you can win your reddraft league. get the draft
61:31assist assistants that are custom to your exact league settings. And on top of that, get the draft sheets, the weekly rankings, the updated rest of

61:55with me, of course. and Iron Man. I'm going to be looking at the chat even after we end this. Please let me know
