0:00We just took Jir Gibbs. That's not interesting though. This is going to be a mock draft that we do first and we're
0:05going to get into the $500 draft right after. But I do want to cover some news real quick because there were a ton of
0:12preseason games today. Matt Laflur, when asked if the Packers are keeping Josh Jacobs regardless of how his case plays out, the quote is, "I fully anticipate
0:24him being a member of our team." Now, I'm going to be fully honest with y'all.
0:28Sometimes I may or may not overreact.
0:31Sometimes we underreact to news.
0:33Sometimes we overreact to news. I think our reaction to the Josh Jacobs stuff yesterday very much was one of those
0:42instances in which we overreacted. Okay, I'll be honest with y'all. I yet again have updated my running back rankings and I have yet again gone through and
0:54moved Josh Jacobs um slightly higher than where we had him in yesterday's stream. Um I'll talk about where he is
1:04in just one second on that. But anyway, um let's go through and let's see if we have any other interesting notes. one,
1:15Naji Harris in his preseason debut did get a considerable amount of work and also Tyrone Tracy was evaluated for a concussion. Um, yeah, he did get
1:26cleared, but all in all, what I would say with the Nagi stuff, again, for me, what it's done is it's moved Cam
1:33Scataboo to be one of the running backs I was targeting in the fourth round of fantasy drafts this year to now somebody
1:40I would need to fall to the early fifth, right? And also Tyrone Tracy is just simply not draftable under any circumstance. There's a good chance that
1:49honestly he ends up getting cut at this point. Now, one thing that I don't want to overreact with when it comes to
1:56preeason is Mai Lemon wasn't great. Mai Lemon dropped a ball and it led to an interception. Fact of the matter is
2:06one preeason game with him looking good or bad doesn't change the prospect that he was coming into the league. You should have had your expectations for
2:16Mai Lemon um before tonight's preseason game. I will say of course over the past month I moved him down my rankings but
2:25it's not due to him dropping a ball in a preseason game leading to an interception. The reason why I've dropped him in my rankings over the past
2:32month is just given the hamstring injury that he had. And he did miss a considerable amount of time, which for a
2:40rookie in particular, I do think is going to be a little bit more important than what we have with some older guys.
2:48But um the other things that are um worth noting is Wandel was getting evaluated for a concussion yesterday,
2:57but it looks like he did not suffer a concussion. So Wel Robinson aokay. Does this matter much? No. Malachi Fields is
3:06going to serve as the Giants number two wide receiver. I do not think that you should be rostering Malachi Fields in a
3:14regular reddraft league. However, in deep basketball formats and dynasty leagues, Malachi Fields is more interesting. And then the latest quote that we have with Ashen Genty, I'm
3:26sorry, is from Clint Kubak. He says, "Still on the mend, still working to get him back. We got another week to assess
3:34how he's going to look into this first game, but we're counting on him." So, it sounds like Genty has a good chance of
3:42playing week one. Again, whenever Genty had his injury, I nuked him in my ranks.
3:47Once we were told, oh no, it's just an ankle sprain. He didn't tear his ACL.
3:53Then I moved him to running back 12. I had him behind Derrick Henry and Kenneth Walker. But since it's looked like it's
3:59a low ankle sprain and not a high ankle sprain, I have moved Ashton Genty ahead of Derk Henry. Between Genty or Walker
4:08though, I probably still prefer Walker personally. Um, just again, Walker is appearing to be fully healthy right now.
4:15So, right now, the expert average rankings on flockfantasy.com are Pickkins and Rashid Rice. I have Trey McBride up here. I obviously will
4:23acknowledge that I'm an idiot. We'll go Pickins and Rice. We won't take McBride in today's draft. I know we took McBride
4:30in yesterday's. And what happens if you ever go through and if you draft an elite tight end on a live stream? People
4:40love love love to clown on you and tell you that your team is bad because they only look at the running backs and wide
4:46receivers. So here's what we're going to do for this one instead. This one instead we will mix it up and instead we
4:53will go wide receiver wide receiver here at the turn. But let me show you my updated rankings that we have on
4:58flockfantasy.com regarding Josh Jacobs. So Josh Jacobs, I did move inside that D tier. There are a lot of running backs that you consider
5:09taking in the fourth round. Those running backs are DeAndre Swift, Bucky Irving, David McGomery, Quinn Shawn Judkins, Jadarian Price, Bashel Tutin,
5:19Cam Scataboo, and Josh Jacobs. Jacobs is in this range for me where I think you can look to take him either in the
5:26fourth, fifth, or if he falls to the sixth, that's where the value is. Now, the other big piece of news that we got
5:34today um actually hit my Gmail account before anywhere else, and I know we've been talking about this the past few days, but it is a congratulations
5:46email. Um, I went through and tweeted this out just in case y'all didn't see it already. Says, "We are pleased to let
5:52you know that your app Flock Fantasy has been approved for distribution. Please note that it can take up to 24 hours for
6:00apps to be available on the App Store after release. If your contracts are not yet in effect, your app cannot be
6:06distributed. Checks the check the tax status of your contracts and blah blah blah." So, long story short, we got approved by Apple. the flockfantasy.com
6:18app should be available in the Apple um iOS app store very very soon. So, can we please get some W's in the chat for
6:28that? And obviously, this is going to help you a ton if you got the flockfantasy.com season pass. You're going to be able to use the trade
6:36calculator, the rankings, the my teams page. It's going to be so much easier to access on the app in comparison to you
6:42having to go to the mobile browser, which obviously I know we've all been doing, including myself. Um, y'all know I'm on fogg fantasy.com every single
6:49day. So, I've been doing it on Safari just in the mobile browser for years now since 2023. The fact that we finally
6:57have an app is incredible and I am excited for it to be better on the phone. Now, if you have not gotten the
7:04flockfantasy.com season pass, it's not too late. You can still get the updated rankings throughout the entire season.
7:11Not only from myself, but pretty much all your favorite creators you watch.
7:14And on top of that, access to all the tools that the devs build out, whether it's the trade calculator, the trade
7:20finder, the my team's page, the whole nine yards. It's only $34. And that gets you access to the entire season. And if
7:28you sign up with code flock, you will also be getting free start trade questions that you can ask me in the
7:33live streams. And I am live streaming every single day until Christmas.
7:39But link to that is in the description and comment section. And one thing that I will say heads up, I need to talk with
7:48the dev team about this, but I think one of the reasons why it was taking us so long to get approved is Apple does like
7:56the 30% Apple tax where if you go through like the Apple store to ever make a payment for something like Apple
8:03takes 30% of whatever the sale is. So, what we are trying to do is if you try to ever buy anything on the app instead of actually
8:14flockfantasy.com, we're going to try to launch you to just Stripe where you don't go through the official app. So, you don't have to pay
8:23that 30% extra tax. So, I would highly recommend just anything you buy, buy on flockfantasy.com, the site, and then you can just log into your account on the
8:33app and you'll have access to everything on the app.
8:36Now, we have a lot of these fourth round running backs off the board. Um, Devonte Adams goes to the 410. One thing I want
8:43to figure out here is where do the other experts have Josh Jacobs ranked? Has Jacobs already gone?
8:53No, Jacobs is still available.
8:59I would not consider him. There are three running backs I'd take before him.
9:03I'm also going to take Coulson Loveland.
9:05So, if you're using the expert average rankings on the site, the top two running backs are Cam Scataboo and Josh Jacobs.
9:13And that's how my rankings would have had it a week ago. But with how things have been trending, I'm going to take Jadarian Price over
9:22Cam Scataboo. Jadarian Price fully healthy, not coming off a significant injury, the Seattle Seahawks will be a much better offense.
9:31And on top of that, at the same time, like Jader Price is a round one of running back talent. While yes, Cam
9:37Scataboo had like an incredible stretch of like six weeks in his rookie season.
9:47I am concerned that Naji Harris is I'm concerned that Naji Harris is
9:59actually going to steal some work.
10:02Let me look at where all the experts on the site have Jacobs ranked. So I have him at 61, Danny 67, Davis 63, Zack 56.
10:12I would assume that Nathan and Sammy having him ranked in the middle of the third, they just haven't updated their rankings.
10:19But yeah, looks like Zach after updating his has him as a mid-found pick. I have him as a late fifth. Davis has an early
10:26sixth and Danny has a mid6th. So yeah, Jacobs, I would not take him here. I would take Cam Scataboo over him if you
10:33wanted a running back instead. But after Scats off the board, I think Jacobs is my next running back at RB25.
10:42Okay, now Chris says Naji is not a threat.
10:46He's an insurance policy stop. And here's the deal. Again, for the thousandth time, we are not able
10:58to go be in the room and look at the rehab and look at the progress that Cam Scataboo has with his ankle.
11:09All we can do is look at the actions that the guys in the room take and the actions that the guys in the
11:18room took where they have access to Cam Scataboo in his rehab is all signs were pointing to them drafting Jeremiah Love
11:27in the NFL draft. When that did not happen, they go through and they verbally say out loud, Cam Scataboo is not 100%. And the same day they draft
11:38I'm sorry, sign Naji Harris, then the report comes out the next day saying Naji Harris would not have gone there if he wasn't going to have a role.
11:49So if John Harbaugh is going to tell me that Cam Scataboo is not 100%.
11:55And he is going to sign Naji Harris the same day, I am not going to close my eyes and pretend that it didn't happen.
12:04Obviously, Cam Scatteraboo is a much much much much much much much better running back. Anybody with a brain understands that. But every single year
12:15in the NFL, we see superior running backs lose work to guys that you would think shouldn't
12:25get any because a coach may want to go through and limit the volume and just limit the injury risk for the real
12:34starter.
12:40So, I'm never going to sit here and try to make an argument that Naji Harris is a talented running back at this point of
12:46his NFL career coming off a torn Achilles. But to pretend that he's not going to get the ball at all for the New
12:53York Giants, for me, it keeps Cam Scatteraboo in the same tier, but it drops him from being like over DeAndre Swift and Travis ETN
13:03to behind those running backs. And also it makes Tyrone Tracy undraftable. It matters. We can't close our eyes and pretend that nothing that happens in
13:14August is meaningful.
13:17Okay, now we have the Jags wide receivers off the 605 and 606. Raadre Stevenson is a
13:26massive riser at this point.
13:31Here's what I need to do. I came very close to taking Raadre instead of Drake May in
13:49the Flock League draft. Okay, behind. I wouldn't have gotten May on the way back around. That makes me feel a little bit
13:54better. Still was definitely the wrong call, but Drake May goes 609. Jaylen Warren goes 610.
14:10We are about to be on the clock. The expert average rankings have Jonathan Brooks as the top name.
14:15We have Jaylen Herdz. Four-point passing touchdown format. Give me Herz here.
14:19Six-point passing touchdown format.
14:20Obviously, we're passing.
14:24I'm going to go Metaf for sure.
14:28And then with our next pick, we're definitely not taking a tight end when we have Lovelin. So sure, let's take Jaylen Herz. Again, I think this
14:36would be the move if it is a four-point passing touchdown league, six-point passing touchdown league. There's just no reason to take him.
14:44Okay.
15:00Now Caleb Williams goes 702. Tucker Craft 703.
15:17Pard 704.
15:34See, I think where we take Lovelin here at the 412, I am completely fine with this Lovelin cost because I understand the bullcase
15:44for Lovelin. My problem again is where he went in the flock league. It's like if you're taking him there at the 34
15:50turn over the super exciting wide receivers like Ibuka Teroa McMillan, it's much tougher. I think once you drop down to
16:01the next tier of like round five wide receivers versus Lovelin, I would rather have Lovelin clearly, but I can't take him over the round four options at the
16:10wide receiver position.
16:16Okay.
16:19R.J. Harvey goes 708. Kyle Pitts 707's definitely aggressive. I know we talked about Kyle Pittz being one of the guys that I really liked at cost in the video
16:29that dropped today, but and I also know we're rocking the Kyle Pitts jersey.
16:33Kyle Pittz had himself a nice little grab in the preseason game today, but also I snagged him I think at the 9008
16:41in the Flockley draft. 707, two picks after Leaporta and four picks after Craft. It does seem pretty aggressive to me.
16:49Gapper says, "How does 1.5 points per reception for the tight end position push tight ends up for you?" I mean, very clearly, you do have to make the
16:57adjustment if you get an additional scoring boost to the tight end position in any capacity.
17:04Like um if you go through and look at our draft sheets, we do have the custom rankings for Titan Premium leagues. Like
17:12you can go through and toggle on Tighten Premium and you can see that um in a Tighten Premium format, I have Bowers as
17:20a first round pick. We have Bowers at nine. We have McBride up at 15. We have Coulson Lovelin up at 24.
17:29Tyler Warren jumps up. Like every tight end obviously is going to get more value in a tight end premium format just
17:34because they can compete with the wide receivers with total output and also they become more appealing in the flex as well. So I know obviously it's not
17:43the most surprising answer in the world but yeah if you make tight ends score more points they will hold more
17:53value.
17:56Um, Phillip says, "Do you think the Rams trading back for 22 D is due to Puka maybe getting suspended?"
18:04I don't I'm not gonna overreact to the 22 Atwell move the Rams made just because it's such a minor thing. They
18:11traded a running back they were probably going to cut um for a wide receiver that was maybe going to get cut by Miami.
18:19So, I don't want to. And also, I mean, 22 Atwell is just so freaking different.
18:27of a wide receiver than Puka Nikua is right now. Y'all saw with my latest rankings, I did move Puka behind Jackson Smith and
18:39Jigba, but also I think Puka has not practiced since August 11th.
18:46So Puka hasn't been a practice in 17 days. Again, I still have him as a top five player in fantasy.
18:55But I do think there's a tiny bit of risk. Obviously, a tiny bit of suspension risk and a tiny bit of injury
19:01risk, which is why I did move him down my rankings slightly. But I don't know if 22 Atwell is a massive tell on what
19:07the Rams are thinking.
19:10Okay, now Alec Pierce goes at the 811.
19:16I think we just ripped two running backs here with Chuba and Blake Cororm. I'm gonna be honest with this new cost of
19:21Chuba Hubard, I've been drafting him a ton.
19:25like Chuba Hubard going two to three rounds after Jonathan Brooks every time.
19:31I think there's a damn good chance when Chuba's fully healthy that he is the starting running back for the Carolina Panthers,
19:37which say that a month ago, people go, "Well, yeah, duh. Say that today kind of seems like a hot take based on
19:45the cost of these guys." And it seems like Chuba Hubard should be good to go for week one. So, I have been liking
19:54the Hubard cost. I've been taking him a considerable amount.
19:58Okay, Marshall Lloyd does go with the 904. Obviously, I moved Marshall Lloyd up my rankings as well. I like him here,
20:05too.
20:09Okay, Dead Eyes says, "Where is the link going to be?" So, we are going to do the $500 draft shortly.
20:16Please spam the chat right now. Where do you want us to send the link to the $500 draft? Do you want it on Instagram,
20:26Twitter, YouTube chat? Just show it on the screen. Ton of different pop possibilities.
20:33What are y'all wanting?
20:36We got screen screen chat Instagram YouTube Instagram screen screen chat screen chat
20:46discord and we're not doing discord chat chat chat chat chat. All right, it looks like the majority of people want chat. We did it
20:57on Instagram couple. We did it on Instagram yesterday. So, how about this? We will
21:08do it in the chat and we will do it on the screen at the same time or pretty damn close to the same time because I'm
21:14going to have to go through and pull it up and do all that. Well, let's just do it right now. Okay, I'm going to pull up
21:22the league. I'm going to click on it.
21:24The link's going to show on the screen real quick and then we are going to type it into the chat immediately.
21:33So, just warning every everybody's playing the same game here.
21:39Just sent that link in the live chat.
21:44And let's see who gets in.
21:50Hell yeah. I think all these people are brand new.
21:54I don't know if we've done a draft with literally any of these guys before or these ladies. I appreciate y'all joining. I'm happy that we were able to
22:04get y'all in here. And um yeah, let me know in the chat that if
22:14y'all see anybody that has been in the league before. We got Dag is always in.
22:20I'll go through and I'll look.
22:23Not Dag is what we're looking for here.
22:26Has not Dag been in one of these leagues?
22:31Don't see him recently here, my friend.
22:35Do not see him recently. I think you're lying to me.
22:47Yep.
22:48Um I ain't haven't seen them recently. I think these are pretty much brand new people.
22:56pretty much brand new people. Now, let's go ahead and let's set the order. We will randomize.
23:05And what pick are we getting? We get pick seven. Pick seven sucks, but it is what it is. We will draft the best team
23:12that we can. If y'all don't know how this works, if somehow you are brand new here, this is a $500 draft. I put $500
23:23into the pot of my own money.
23:26Everybody that you just saw join from the YouTube live chat put in a total of0 as their buyins.
23:35And whoever wins this league at the end of the season is going to win all 500.
23:41Very, very simple.
23:46And let me pull up my draft sheets.
23:48We'll get these over to the side. I do not think we are going to Yeah. get one of the top five guys.
23:59First five picks are absolute chalk.
24:02Here's the deal. at seven.
24:06If I'm in a casual league, right, a league which people are really just looking at the ADP and there's a damn
24:15good chance I can get Kenneth Walker at the 206. I take a Monro St. Brown here.
24:21But if I am drafting with y'all, and this is the same thing that whenever I drafted in the Flock League, I don't
24:28think people are going to be listening to sleep or ADP. I think they're going to be damn closer to looking at our
24:34rankings or using our draft sheets. And if that's going to be the case, there's not a running back outside of maybe Derk
24:42Henry that we could get at at the 206.
24:45And y'all know I'm not a massive Derrick Henry guy. So, if we take a Monroe round here, we may be forced to look at
24:53Derrick Henry in the next round, which just for me personally, I don't want to do.
25:04Okay, now Hampton, Barkley, Achan, all off the board in the middle of the I'm sorry, at
25:15the beginning of the second. Now, I'm going to be honest with y'all. The Demons are getting into my head.
25:22Derrick Henry goes 204. So, we actually are going to get a running back running back start here. If you're looking at my
25:27draft sheets, Kenneth Walker and Ashen Genty are the top two names. Walker goes, we will go ahead take Ashen Genty.
25:35He is at the top of my sheets. Um, I definitely would rather have Kenneth Walker over Genty just given the injury
25:40risk that we have with Genty currently.
25:42But, um, starting Taylor, Ashen Genty does seem like it's a pretty high upside start where I am willing to take the
25:50ankle risk for Genty himself.
25:54But anyway, the demons are getting to my head. They are telling me, Mason, just do it, man.
26:02Just freaking do it.
26:06They are wanting me to rank Justin Jefferson over CD Lamb.
26:15Let me explain the demon's rationale here.
26:22Let's go through and let's look at the past three years for both of these wide receivers.
26:30And specifically, I want to look at the past three years for Justin Jefferson and the games in which he has not had to
26:38play with JJ McCarthy because obviously JJ McCarthy is not taking a snap under center for the
26:48Minnesota Vikings this year.
26:51Carson Wentz would see the field before McCarthy did if Kyler gets injured.
26:56So Justin Jefferson 18 points per game over the past three seasons and games with no JJ McCarthy.
27:06CD Lamb over the past three years 18.9.
27:16But if we look at the splits with and without George Pickkins here, the games with Pickkins, he's actually
27:25been at 14.3.
27:33Sorry, let me add up those three years so we can see the games without pickings. Is the games without pickins, CDL's a freaking monster, 20.8, eight,
27:42but there is a massive, massive delta in those two samples. Oh crap, we are on the clock. My highest ranked player at
27:50this point is Bree Hall. Um, I did move Javvante.
27:54Did we get him? Okay, I did move Javvante ahead of Bree for a second, but now it sounds like Bree is going to be
28:01good to go week one. So, after we start with these three running backs, you'll see the draft assistants telling us we
28:08need wide receivers. We are over our running back budget as is. So, we are planning on slamming receivers in rounds four, five, six, seven. Almost no matter
28:18what here, our picks over the next three to four rounds are going to be wide receivers.
28:26Okay.
28:29Now, again, I'm probably going to lean with CD Lamb over Justin Jefferson still. I don't think I'm actually going to update my rankings.
28:39I think it's mainly just the fact that I have Justin Jefferson on my own team now. So, I'm like really really
28:45stressing Justin Jefferson.
28:48And I stressing is the bad word. I'm thinking about him a lot because I'm incredibly excited.
29:00Okay. Lad goes 310, Flowers 311, ETN at the 312.
29:10And if I would have known we are getting Genty at the 206 and Reese Hall at the 307, I would have preferred Aman Rosra
29:18St. Brown in the first. Just typically we aren't getting these type of running back values.
29:25Okay.
29:29Now, DeAndre Swift 401.
29:38Oh, this is something I've been meaning to ask y'all. And I'm going to be I'm going to be honest here with y'all.
29:46I have obviously been quote unquote working a lot, doing a lot of fantasy football stuff. I'm sure you all have seen all
29:54the Flock League videos. Been live streaming here every single day, making videos here every day. I'm working with the devs on flockfantasy.com a ton every
30:02single day. So, actual work, I haven't been that lazy, but working out stuff, I have been very lazy, very much out of
30:13shape. I went on a run today, what should have been an easy run, freaking kicked my butt. It's embarrassing um how
30:22out of shape I currently am. Um wide receiver, there are three guys left in the tier for me. It's McMillan, Ibuka,
30:27and Garrett Wilson. We're just going to get whichever one of these three guys goes. Wilson goes with the 404. So that
30:32means we're going to get McMillan or Ibuka, which yeah, if you look at sleeper ADP, it's the same tier break here as well.
30:40McMillan goes 405. But anyway, so because I've been very much um a lazy bum when it comes to working
30:50out, I haven't let myself eat like a pig how I normally do. Normally, I just eat like a pig every day, but since I
30:59usually run a bunch, it doesn't matter.
31:02But once I start working out again, the first place I am hitting is Chick-fil-A for the waffle chicken
31:13sandwich.
31:15If anybody has had the Chick-fil-A waffle chicken sandwich, you got to let me know how it is because
31:29this is all I freaking see on Instagram right now. I want to try it so badly.
31:38And honestly, f it. I'm probably going to get it tomorrow.
31:45because this is all that's been on my mind. This is all I've been able to think about for a very long time.
31:52I know my screen froze. Let me fix that for y'all.
31:57But let me know in the chat if y'all have had it. Oh my god, it's pretty good. It's fire spicy version. Of
32:04course, you got to go spicy.
32:09Of course, I'm getting the spicy one.
32:11Looks like a lot of people have had it.
32:17Nexus, how could that be bad? Honestly, that is a damn good question.
32:22Is it even possible to make that taste bad?
32:30This is the first time that I have seen this in quite some time. Coloulston Lovelin still available in the fifth round. Do not show Danny lad. I'd be
32:40very surprised if Lovelin went here because this team has McBride. No, instead they go Jameson Williams.
32:56Okay, for us, wide receiver is still the priority and Loveland is officially off the board at the 503. Again, I completely understand the bull case on
33:07Coulson Loveland at this cost. At this cost, take all the swings that you want to Parker Washington in the fifth. That
33:15is not for me.
33:23Okay.
33:24Where you going, Moisty?
33:32Where are you going, buddy? I know what I want you to do, but I don't know if you're going to do it.
33:40Cuz DJ Moore, damn. I wanted to take a running back only having Bucky Irving. I thought he was going to go with Tuton.
33:48Like, Tuton's the last running back left in this tier. Tuton does go off of the 506, so it still ends up being fine for
33:54us. Looking at my ranks, we have Lamar as the highest ranked player, but when I draft with y'all, I know quarterbacks
34:00are going to fall a considerable amount.
34:02I could look at Terry Luther Burton or Christian Watson. Looking at the ADP on Sleeper, it looks like Luther Burden
34:10typically gets drafted the highest, but there's no way Terry makes it back.
34:16We're just going to go ahead. We'll take Terry at the 507.
34:21And let me get rid of the next on here.
34:25This is the $500 draft. And I don't think we've made the announcement yet.
34:30And let me double check that it is officially set up. But I think we should have the free season pass giveaway set
34:38up for anybody who is interested in winning a free flockfantasy.com season pass. All you need to do is drop a like
34:47on the live stream and then type the word season pass into the live chat. You do those two things and you will enter
34:55in to win a free flockfantasy.com season pass.
34:59Now Rome goes ahead of Burden here, which is interesting. Lamar at the 509.
35:05Christian Watson goes 5'11.
35:08Again, y'all know that I always, at least I told you this in the live stream yesterday.
35:16Um, I always go through and look at where my players get drafted so I can see like, oo, if I were to draft in this
35:28draft, is it possible to build my team?
35:31And my team would have Taylor at seven, Jefferson at 12. So, obviously, no way to pair that. Um, ETN at the 312, Ibuka
35:40at the 406, JMO at the 502, and Christian Watson at the 5'11.
35:45So, yeah, again, I really like the team I have in the Flock League this year.
35:51It would have been better, of course, if we got good Jordan Tyson injury news and not bad Jordan Tyson injury news if
35:58Jaden Higgins didn't immediately tear his ACL.
36:05But I like it nonetheless.
36:13Okay, so Jaylen Warren off 603.
36:22Ryan Thomas, I want a wide receiver. Are there any left? If we wanted to take a receiver, it's Metaf. Quarterback Burrow
36:30and May are available.
36:33I don't want to go QB. My highest ranked player technically is Trevon.
36:41Do I want Trevian in the sixth?
36:44Obviously Trevian's been a massive massive massive loser at it. We'll take Trevian Henderson and then we're just simply done at running back. Trevion
36:52Henderson's probably been one of obviously not including Jordan Tyson, not including Jaden Higgins, the guys that have just truly gotten nuked with
37:01injuries.
37:03But outside of that, nobody's lost the preseason more than Trevian Henderson.
37:18Ankle injury. Raadre looks like he is the starter. And I'll take Trevian here and I'll verbally say out loud that
37:34most likely Raandre Stevenson is the starting running back for the New England Patriots. Like if you had to ask me who's the starting running back for
37:41New England in week six, I'd go probably 60% chance it's Remadre, 40% chance it's Trevian.
37:49And my explanation of why I'd be still willing to take Trevian over Remadre, even if I think Remadre is the more
37:55likely starter, is in the scenario in which Gadre Stevenson is the starting running back for the New England Patriots. Where do I think I have him in
38:03my running back rankings that week, I think I probably got him around running back 20, running back 22, running back 24. So what we've historically seen from
38:12him in the scenario in which Trevian Henderson is the starting running back for the New England Patriots and those games in which RAR miss
38:21Trevian was the top five running back.
38:28So the upside case that we have with Trevian I think is a lot higher than the upside case that we have with Radre at
38:34least what we've historically seen.
38:37But I think the floor and the median projection is better with Ramadre.
38:44But also at the same time, and if we're sitting here and this team has three running backs on it already with
38:51Taylor, Genty, as well as Breeze.
38:56I don't necessarily think that our top priority as we build out the rest of our squad should be
39:05guaranteed running back touches.
39:10I think we're much better off making our top priority just how can we hit a home run in the middle rounds
39:17because this is a luxury pick here. It's a pick that we don't need to hit.
39:22So, like taking Tony Pard on a team like this makes no sense. Or it makes sense to take Tony Pard is if you're like
39:30crap, um, I have nobody to start week one at running back.
39:37Now Sam Leaporta 704 the burrow pick in a six-point pass passing touchdown format looks great there at the end of the sixth
39:48based on the concerns that we have had with the reports coming out of Washington with how bad their offensive line looks. I
40:00have officially moved Drake May ahead of Jaden Daniels in my rankings. We've dropped Jaden Daniels down a couple spots. Rico Dattle goes getting plenty
40:12of positive buzz coming out of Pittsburgh. I think we're actually going to take a wide receiver here. I think wide receivers is our biggest need. I'm
40:20surprised to see DK Mechaf make it this far down to us. So, we'll take DK Mechaf here at the 707.
40:30There are three quarterbacks that I think I would be fine with making it back. Again, six-point passing touchdown format as well. So, if it's a six-point
40:38passing touchdown league, a lot of the late round quarterbacks, as long as they could potentially lead
40:48the NFL in passing touchdowns, they are still absolute smashes, right?
40:54Like in a four-point pass passing touchdown league, you kind of need to take somebody here that you think has rushing upside,
41:00but that's not going to be the case in a six-point passing touchdown where Dak Prescott, Matthew Stafford, Justin Herbert, those types of quarterbacks
41:08become a lot more appealing.
41:12Okay, Drake May goes 7-Eleven. I absolutely love the Drake May pick. If it wasn't for DK medap being available, I would have taken Drake May.
41:26Stefon Diggs goes 712.
41:30Another decision, I mean, another thing with our decision to pass on quarterbacks there is the Lamar team was behind us and the Josh
41:38Allen team was behind us. The base expectation, of course, I'm drafting with people I've never met. I have no idea what they're going to do. Like in
41:45the Flock League, I would know exactly like, oh, the Josh Allen team can't take another QB. The Lamar team can't take
41:51another quarterback. Here, you don't exactly know. But my expectation would be that those two teams probably
41:59don't grab another QB.
42:09Okay. Jordan Mason 802.
42:23Harold Fannon 803. I don't think we can afford taking a tight end on this team.
42:32I think this team very much instead needs to be prioritizing Jaden Daniels goes. I would have taken Daniels if he would have made it. I
42:42think we need to be prioritizing wide receiver points if there's still somebody of value.
42:48Looking at the wide receiver rankings, the guy at the top of my draft sheets is Michael Pitman. And I think we're going
42:55to rip him.
42:57There's nothing better than drafting back-to-back Steelers wide receivers.
43:02And what we can do here is we can pretends that perfect. We get a dog howl at 11:30 p.m. There's nothing better than that.
43:12I'm sure the neighbors love it. But we can pretend that the Steelers wide receivers um with Metaf and Pitman
43:24are just Guju Smith Schustster and Antonio Brown all over again.
43:30That's what I'm feeling here.
43:33Will that happen? Of course not.
43:36But a man can dream. A man can dream.
43:42Okay, now Jakori Crossit off the board at the 808.
43:55And it will be interesting to see exactly how far Caleb falls because Caleb would have probably been my pick. If it
44:02was a four-point passing touchdown league, I'm definitely taking Jaylen Herz.
44:06But I think Caleb does have the potential to lead the NFL in touchdowns, which again in a six-point pass passing touchdown league, you have to ask
44:16yourself that when you take your quarterback. Can my quarterback lead the NFL in total touchdowns?
44:24So, Alec Pierce 807. Word is Alec Pierce is most likely going to be good to go week one or that's at least
44:33what he's aiming for. He's back at practice today. Obviously, is that a guarantee? Of course not.
44:40But it's positive nonetheless. Dak Prescott goes to the 811. Again, six-point passing touchdown league. I'm not faulting anybody at all for taking Dak
44:50Prescott over Caleb. Not faulting anybody at all for taking him over Jaylen Herz. Like, I think I mean he definitely went well ahead of Jaylen
44:59Herz in the flock league draft, which is six-point passing touchdowns.
45:06Okay, Jaden Reed goes 812. I think that's exactly where Sal drafted him now.
45:15Could be wrong. Conception 901.
45:18I definitely fumbled the bag not taking Conception.
45:23Like idiotic call from me. I mean, we'll see what Xavier Worthy does, but that was like the one call I made in the
45:35draft where at the time I knew it was bad. Like, I actually stand by us taking Jordan Tyson in the eighth round when we
45:43didn't know what the update with Tyson's injury was going to be. I think it was a good riskreward profile there in the
45:51middle of the eighth.
45:54Jaden Higgins I actually thought was an incredible value where we got him and obviously we had no injury reports whatsoever. But I'll be very clear those
46:01picks were worse but at the time I think they were completely justifiable.
46:06The pick that I made at the time which I knew I shouldn't have done and I knew it was bad the second that I did it was
46:12taking Xavier Worthy over Casey Conception.
46:16Like I literally had Casey's jersey, went to the sticker table and went, I need a Texas Longhorn. I need to take
46:25worthy. Okay, we're on the clock again.
46:28And yeah, my sheets have the quarterbacks at the top and six-point passing touchdown format. I think I will go ahead and take Caleb
46:37Williams at the 907.
46:42I think that this is a fine cost. Again, where the Ladster and Sammy took him, I don't necessarily know if I love the
46:53cost with where he went in the flock league, but here him going at the 907, I think is much better.
47:03Okay, KD off 908, Kyle Pittz goes 909.
47:07You know what? Actually, let me be on record. This was a bad call. If I would have been paying closer attention
47:13instead of just going through and live streaming, what we hopefully would have noticed is there were one, two, three, four teams
47:23after us that had already drafted a quarterback and only two teams after us that had drafted a tight end. So, the
47:30correct call there actually probably would have been George KD or Kyle Pittz.
47:35But yeah, you live and you learn. I should have looked at the board closer.
47:42I think we should have gone with George KD or pets.
47:49Charbanet off at the 911.
47:59Hey, what are you doing here, brother?
48:04They auto or at least it said times up.
48:07Trevor Lawrence off, I think.
48:09That wouldn't have been the play if it was a true auto pick. If it was a true auto pick, I think it would have been
48:13Jaylen Herz.
48:17But yeah, again, I know it seems crazy to see Jaylen Herz fall this far. And I would take Jaylen Herz in the seventh
48:23round in a four-point passing touchdown league, but Herz fell to the 10th in the flock league as well.
48:41Now we have Romeo Dobs off the 1002.
48:47Jacobe Meyers 1003.
48:55Draft assistant's definitely going to tell us we need more points at wide receiver. Yeah, we're way over at running back points. We need more wide
49:01receiver, of course. running back. I mean, we have JT, Genty, Bree Hall, running back one, running back two, running back three. And then we have the
49:10upside shot of Trevian who went right next to RJ Harvey in this draft.
49:16And wide receiver Abuka, Terry, Metaf, and Pitman. So, I think we have a floor at wide receiver. It's just wide receiver. The ceiling is highly suspect.
49:26I almost only want to look at wide receiver and tied into my rankings right now.
49:31Yeah, my rankings at wide receiver do have Xavier Worthy as the top pick.
49:36Again, this is where I took Xavier Worthy in the Flock League as well. Um, it was a bad call for me to take him
49:41there because Casey Conception was on the board, but at this point, I think it's just fine.
49:49Okay, Jaylen Herz goes 108.
49:57Yeah, even in a six-point pass passing touchdown league, I think Jaylen Hurst can be a great value there.
50:09Okay, Rashad White 109. Rashad White has been a massive follower in drafts lately, especially in high stakes drafts. Rashad White is significantly
50:19cheaper than he used to be.
50:25Okay, Coker 1012, Herbert 1101. Love the Justin Herbert value.
50:33Like I'm surprised the team at four didn't take Herbert.
50:41So, we're in an interesting spot at tight end. There's only one other team in this draft that is not drafted a
50:46tight end. So, for my roster in particular, I would rather continue to take upside shots at wide receiver and hope that we can hit on a guy that turns
50:54into an every week starter with the expectations that we're probably going to be able to get whatever tight end that we want in the
51:00later rounds. We're definitely going to end up taking two tight ends here, don't get me wrong.
51:12Now, what are you doing here at the 11:03, buddy?
51:17Kenan Allen Concincaid.
51:22I wouldn't fault someone for taking concaid here. I drafted Concaid as a second tight ends in the flock league.
51:27Of course, I will say my tight end was Pitts in the ninth, not Leaport in the seventh. But if you want to make an
51:33argument that Concaid can outscore the wide receivers that are still available, I'm down to hear that argument.
51:43Yeah, once we're to this point, I definitely think we're snagging receivers.
51:52I think we're gonna go Debo. He's the highest in sleeper ADP and he's the highest in my draft. Shoots at wide
51:59receiver as well.
52:01Dean Stribbling's getting all the steam in San Francisco. That is very, very clear. Mike Evans has been a follower with all the nagging injuries that he
52:10has had. I mean, if you just combine the history of Mike Evans injuries with the fact that he is 33 years old and in San
52:19Francisco, I mean, it does make a lot of sense for Evans to be falling once we are getting these injury reports. I'm
52:29sure there are bald knowers in this chat that probably know this, but please spam the chat. How many years
52:38after Mike Evans was drafted was Debo Samuel drafted? Mike Evans was drafted first. Obviously, they are both very old and crusty,
52:49but how many years after Mike Evans was drafted was Debo Samuel drafted?
52:57Be interested to see.
53:02What y'all have to say?
53:0654 5410 53 43 57
53:1854 44 55 was the correct answer was five.
53:26Mike Evans was in the 2014 draft class.
53:28Debo Samuel was in the 2019 class. Now, Mike Evans came out of Texas A&M at such a young age. I think he was drafted at
53:3620 years old.
53:38And then also, I think Debo Samuel came out of I believe it was South Carolina in that 2019 class. He was pretty damn
53:45old himself. I think he may have been 23 years old in the draft. So, I think the age gap of these two guys is only two
53:52years, but the draft class is five years. Let me see their player cards.
53:57Debo is 30. Okay. Uh, Sleeper doesn't give it like flockfantasy.com does where we get the decimals. Let me go to flockfantasy.com. It's just a better
54:06read on the guy's actual age.
54:10Okay, let me see if I'm mistaken here. Debo 30.6, Mike Evans 33. So yeah, there's only a
54:23two and a half year age gap between the two of them despite them being five years apart in draft classes.
54:31Okay, Denzel Boston off the board. We are going to go ahead grab a tight end here. Jake Ferguson was the highest
54:38ranked guy in my draft sheets and Jake Ferguson at the same time was the highest ranked according to Sleeper ESPN.
54:47Um, MMA edits says you should do a draft with members. So, I know we've talked about this a bunch.
54:57I want I completely understand that like the season pass for flock fantasy.com's 34 bucks, right? I completely understand
55:06not everybody can afford that.
55:09Fantasy football is just a hobby for a lot of people. A lot of people the buy into their fantasy league is only $20,
55:16right? $25.
55:21However, I want to be able to get the entire chat involved and get as many of y'all as possible into these draft giveaways that
55:30we do. So, I don't have any interest in paywalling the um draft giveaways. I don't have any interest in saying like,
55:40"Oh, if you want to be in a draft with us that we're doing every night, you have to buy the season pass.
55:48Um, so we are not going to do that. We are going to keep it where anybody in the live chat can join
55:56with us. It is completely a fair game for everyone.
56:02Um, Jeep Guy, I appreciate you as always hanging out with us and I hope you're doing well and I hope the move has
56:10treated you well. I think you should have officially moved by now. Let me know.
56:16But Travis Hunter goes with the 1211. I have moved Travis Hunter down my rankings a considerable amount after we have gotten all the updates from camp of
56:27him just playing on the defensive side of the ball. Again, I think in August, I don't want to overreact to stuff, but I
56:34can't close my eyes and completely ignore relevant things. So very similar.
56:41I'm not going to completely ignore the fact that Naji Harris is going over to New York.
56:58Even though you hate me saying it, I'm not gonna completely ignore the fact that Travis ETN's playing pretty much only on the defensive side of the ball
57:06at camp.
57:08So, I have nuked him in my ranks, but welcome to the other YouTube
57:18members. JN, happy to see you. I hope that you are doing well, my friend.
57:26Dylan says, "You should make the draft guy free to a certain point, like a day or two before the season." I am
57:31definitely not going to do that because if I made everything on flockfantasy.com free the people who spent 34 bucks on the
57:42season pass, it would be a big slap in the face to them. So, we are definitely not going to do that.
57:52Okay, let's pull this around. My highest ranked tight end is Mark Andrews.
57:59Sleeper ADP is the best tight end as a Ronda Gadston. I just think that obviously Sleeper ADP isn't in line with
58:07the fact that Gadston may not see the field.
58:12Okay.
58:18Ian says, "Is Travis Hunter even worth drafting for most players?" No. I'm sorry. For most leagues, no.
58:29James says, "Is Travis Hunter dropable in Dynasty?" For sure not droppable in Dynasty. Do not drop him. Yeah, I don't know if I said something else, but I
58:38definitely was talking about Travis Hunter. It's only one player that gets drafted in fantasy drafts. So, you're worried about playing on the defensive
58:44side of the ball. But this is your last chance to enter in to win a free flockfantasy.com season pass. Again, if
58:53you want to get one for free, drop a like on the stream. Type the word season pass into the live chat and that'll be
58:59how you enter in to get a free one. And if you can't afford a season pass, it is $34 on flockfantasy.com. Get you set up
59:08with all the fantasy football tools you need throughout the entire year to help you win your league. Um that includes trade calculator, my teams page, updated
59:17weekly and rest of season rankings, not only from myself, but pretty much all your favorite creators you watch on YouTube. And if you sign up with code
59:24flock, you will also get free start trade questions you can ask me in the live streams. And I am live streaming
59:30every single day until Christmas.
59:33But let's go ahead and let's pull y'all's entries in here and we will give
59:42away a free season pass.
59:50Ravens defense goes. Obviously, I don't know if y'all been watching, but we've been doing these drafts every single night for weeks, and the vast majority
59:58of them, I am not taking a defense. I am not taking a kicker.
60:06Okay, a gapper 13 wins the free flock fantasy.com season pass. Gapper 13, if you are in this live chat, please let me
60:16know what your flockfantasy.com username is and I'll be super happy to go ahead and hook you up with a free season pass.
60:23Caleb Douglas off the board at the 1403.
60:32And typically when we need running backs, I just rip back up running backs with these last two picks.
60:40Maybe this is the time where it makes sense. So, Houston has a horrible schedule to open up the year, but maybe
60:47they are just such an elite defense that it doesn't matter. We will take Houston here in the 14th.
60:58Okay.
61:05And then in terms of kickers, h there's nobody that's left. I mean, maybe Jake Bates.
61:17Jake Bates was the kicker nine last year at the kick. The issue with the Lions is they score so many points, but they just go for two
61:26and at the same time go for it on fourth down so often.
61:35But I like the Naji pick to be honest just as a pure handcuff. I probably will take Bates here just because in terms of
61:43our running back room, we don't need to take another running back and these last round wide receivers are just bombs.
61:49Maybe I go Omar Cooper and see if he does anything week one.
61:53But um Jade, if you want to go through and let me know what your username is again,
62:04that would help a ton. Just let me know what your flockfantasy.com username is.
62:10Brillin Allen goes 1504.
62:24Yeah, my draft sheets would have Omar Cooper as the best receiver. But here's the deal. I'm going to have to cut one
62:29of these guys for a kicker week one anyway. And Omar Cooper would be my cut regardless.
62:37Um, Jade, I got you, my friend. I'll send this over to Mr. Samuel L. Stacks to hook you up with the preseason pass.
62:46But goes, "Yeah, like the problem with Omar, we're going to have to cut him for a kicker regardless.
62:52We'll just take a kicker."
62:54Um, but I think that's all we got for y'all in this live stream. I really appreciate you hanging out with us.
62:59Thank you so much for everything.
63:01flockfantasy.com app should be available in the Apple App Store hopefully any day now that they approved us. But thanks so much for everything, ladies and
63:10gentlemen. and I really appreciate you and
