0:00What is good? We're up, we're live, we're rolling.
0:03We've got a 1QB Mock PPR, no tight end premium.
0:06Just a pretty standard situation here. Two wide receivers, two flexes.
0:09So here we are. We're running in the first round.
0:12I got Chev, I got Big Co. How we doing boys?
0:16Big Co, how you feeling? Doing good. I haven't done a regular, what do you call them, managed league mock yet.
0:22I've been doing the underdog best balls, but this will be interesting.
0:26Chev, how you feeling? Like a Viagra peel with a face.
0:29All right. His name on his camera says meat missile, so he's ready.
0:33He's indeed ready. All right. So the first round is gone as this.
0:37We have Gibbs at the 101, Bijan at the 102, Chase at the 103.
0:42We've got Christian McCaffrey at the 104, JSN at the 105, Puka at the 106, Taylor at the 107, Cook at the
0:48108 and Gentee at the 109 with free crab legs on deck.
0:52So how are we feeling about Puka Nakua right now?
0:55We good? Everybody good? Drafting steadily. Drafting steadily. All right.
0:58I can't wait for his next, his next, you know, his next advertising or marketing deal as a denture specialist.
1:04All the, all this off season stuff is just coming back to royally bite him in the ass.
1:10No pun intended. That was a little crazy. So big co you're good though.
1:14You're just clicking the button. You're rolling on Puka.
1:17Yeah. Cause he's a little sore. I mean, and there's some allegations.
1:21Yeah. He was making fun of them. People wear them small hats on their head.
1:25And he did that again. Or this was way back.
1:28I mean, during the office, he hadn't been punished for it yet, but he didn't do nothing.
1:34Now there's some biting stuff coming back, you know?
1:36Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I, I, I, yeah, you know, when it rains and pours, you know, what are you going to do?
1:43I thought that was old news. Golly. I hope it's old news.
1:47Cause I ain't got a bunch of Puka and underdogs.
1:50You can light those tickets on fire. I told my wife, I was like, these are, these are scratch offs just waiting
1:57for an NFL to tell me how much money I made.
2:00Well, here's the, here's the thing you can, if it's going to push his, if it's going to push his value to
2:07back to the back of the first round, cause he gets suspended for one or two games, I'm all for it.
2:14Like coming off the board where he went one Oh five here.
2:17As I make a pick on over here. One Oh six.
2:21Yeah. Sorry. I don't have my contacts in. Um, yeah, as he went one Oh six here, we get one Oh one
2:28Oh seven, one Oh eight potentially getting pushed back to the one Oh nine.
2:32That's incredible value for the wide receiver one overall last year.
2:35Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it's, it's definitely slightly worrisome, but I think I'm still, still, still clicking the button.
2:41Um, Christian McCaffrey, a little soreness, any, any cause for concern with that drastic?
2:45Yes. Okay. So much cause for concern. I'm not even trolling.
2:49All right. Slower on the button today than, than you would have been a couple of days ago.
2:54I mean, it's just every, every single time code, like every single time that you hear Christian McCaffrey has some sort of
3:01ailment, like your little booty hole gets a little tight a little bit.
3:05Like it's just not, we don't want to hear it.
3:08There ain't no doubt about it. We don't want to hear it.
3:12Like if, if there was no, if there was no injury concerns and we were just having a Derek Henry style, style
3:19run of health, he'd be the one-on-one over Gibbs over Bijon.
3:22But everybody, there's people who straight up will mention me and be like, Christian McCaffrey can't be the one-on-one because he's got an injury history.
3:30And I'm like, okay, bro, I'm in line at Arby's man.
3:33Leave me the fuck alone. So, I mean, generally speaking, Big Co, are you, are you okay with McCaffrey as, as anywhere, anywhere from one to four here?
3:42If, if, if I'm drafting a team right tonight, I guess I might could click Jonathan Taylor over McCaffrey if he's sore.
3:49But I mean, in a week from now when he's back, you know, like if he, if back on the practice field
3:55next week, nothing happened, blah, blah, blah. You know, it's like, that's a great buying opportunity if he's just sore, but last
4:02time he was sore, it got a little worse and it got a little worse.
4:07You know, it's like, we just, we, we have severe, severe PTSD from two years ago.
4:12And, but then last year he absolutely crushed, you know?
4:15So, I mean, I think it was like, he was wide receiver, like five or something, whatever that number, like he, just
4:21from his wide receiver stats alone was ridiculous. And I just, I'm going to take a, I'm going to buy the dip on McCaffrey.
4:29And if I, in the drafts that I have coming up in the next couple of days, and then if it, if
4:36there's one more bad negative drum beat, then I am probably just going to slide him too far down where he's, you
4:42know, he's got, he's got two strikes. I won't let him get, I won't let him get to two strikes.
4:49He's got one strike, two strikes. He's out for me.
4:52Oh, okay. All right. Fair enough. All right. We left off at the one Oh nine.
4:57We're going to pick back up at the one 10.
5:00We've got St. Brown. We've got lamb. We've got Hampton rounding out the round and then chase Brown.
5:05So the double down on the running back for the 12 spot.
5:09And then we have a chance of the two Oh two Jefferson at the two Oh three Drake London at the two
5:16Oh four and Saquon Barkley at the two Oh five.
5:19So interesting, fun turn there. And then Barkley, AJ Brown Bowers at two seven, Kenny Walker at two eight, Jordan love every
5:26time Jeremiah love a two Oh nine. We've got Nico at the two 10 Trey bride, Trey McBride at the two 11
5:32and then Derek Henry to bring the second round to a close.
5:36Any initial starts here that you like, don't like, or just general pick that you like, or don't like you got to go ahead.
5:43Go ahead. Go ahead. Go ahead. Go ahead. Because I can't, I'm not be the first guy to draft a quarterback.
5:50If it's not Josh Allen, like the Lamar Jackson, I understand he like he, you, you did the stack there.
5:56You got the Zay flowers, Lamar Jackson stack, but like, I'd, I'd pass on that.
6:01I'd let that go. What if it was a guy who was weekly winners?
6:05Why would you maybe, you know, underdog week, you went weekly winner changes things.
6:09Why would you, why is that go? Uh, I don't know.
6:13I, it makes a lot of sense. this is my first year ever doing really this, but any, any amount of underdog like this.
6:20And there's a tournament called weekly winners. And after I did my first draft, I looked at the board to see what
6:27was going on in this one dude, Josh Allen, like went second round where usually goes three to early three to early
6:34fourth in the, in the regular full size tournament.
6:36Uh, but the weekly winner is like, you know, just basically they give away $20,000 a week and then like 15 and
6:4310 and 12 or whatever, you know, like there's, you can win 20, but if you're in the top 500 spots, you can get 20 bucks or whatever.
6:52You know what I mean? You can double your money in one week.
6:56If you have a good week, you make 20 grand.
6:59If you have a, you know, if you have a phenomenal week and you beat everybody, you really only had to peak one time to make money.
7:07Basically. If you have a really good team, you could have a couple of good scores over the, over the season, you
7:14know, and it's not about getting to the end and all that stuff.
7:18It's like, you have one great week and you make money.
7:21Well, then if that's the case, then you want in one week scenario, like Josh Allen's the, the bull on that.
7:28Like that's what he does, you know? So I, this guy taking Josh Allen in the second, second round.
7:34And then like, basically didn't take another quarterback. Cause he's trying to surround Josh Allen's, you know, 10 games this season where he's going to crush.
7:42Right. With as many chances to win as he could.
7:45And I was like, Ooh, I can get behind that.
7:48So I got a lot of like, you know, Jalen hurts and.
7:51Caleb Williams and stuff like that. I got a couple of Josh Allen weekly winners, but most of it is still my,
7:58is there good value, but they move up. Their quarterbacks move up a little bit in week of winter.
8:04All right, Jeff on this board here. Was there anything that's standing out to you liking or disliking right now?
8:10I mean, we, we, we, we do it. We're doing an episode where everybody's going to get real pissed at me.
8:17The, the first thing, the first thing is Colson Loveland being the third tight end off the board.
8:22Don't love that. Not for redraft. It's, it's the same thing as Luther Burton, but just, you know, two round, a round
8:29earlier, two rounds earlier, no round because Luther burns in the fourth round.
8:33It's the same bet, like the exact same bet for redraft.
8:36And I, you know, if you have a problem with Luther Burton, you have to have a problem with Colson Loveland.
8:43And then you just need to draft as much Roman duns and Caleb Williams as humanly possible.
8:48And Deandre Swift. Medium disagree. Medium disagree. It's not the same bet because of tight ends.
8:53Like it's just, if you just look at the projected points, like before we get back to the show, if you haven't
9:00checked out the new crowdsource rankings tool, head over to the FF dynasty.com and get your swipe on.
9:05Yes, you did. When you were leading the ship for Tucker craft last year, I was in on Tucker craft a year
9:12or two ago before that and was like, Hey, this guy's actually good.
9:16Blah, blah. I like Tucker craft too. And if we can find us another Tucker craft this year in the ninth round, we're going to be printing money.
9:25But like, and, and to your, to that point, you get Tucker craft in the sixth round and that's the game.
9:31I get it. And I'm, and I'm all about it, but like you have, Tyler Warren, Tucker craft, Harold fan in behind him.
9:38And my boy, Isaiah likely, and maybe if Porter Laporta's back is okay.
9:42Right. But once you get, so if you get, if you get closer level and you're in the top half of tight ends, are you, are you not?
9:51I mean, this is a bad, this is a bad clip for you to stick your head over.
9:57I wouldn't want to be peeking over that cliff to be like, he's not top half of the top 12, because I
10:03mean, you don't think he would, you don't think he's top six.
10:07It's possible. It's highly likely. It's entirely possible. Is it more likely than probable?
10:11I would bet that Tyler Warren scores more points to him, gets more targets, scores, more touchdowns, whatever you want to bet.
10:18We can go pie to the face. Tyler Warren versus Tucker.
10:21I'll get, give me Tyler Warren and Tucker craft.
10:24Y'all can have Colson. Lovely. We'll go pie to the face.
10:28And, and we'll just, you just got double. You just went to, you got double the guys and you're getting the best player.
10:35Remember? But you got a guy at four, 10 and five, 10.
10:38I'll take two guys over the three, nine guy, but I'll, I'll take Colson Loveland for 10 bucks over.
10:44I don't, I mean, I'm not, I want, I want, I want, there's no upside.
10:49I don't, I don't get anything. Just go straight.
10:52Listen, you got, you got 20 bucks. I got $10 for the Powerball tickets.
10:56I forgot about that. I could, I could be a billionaire right now.
11:00I could literally, it's a billionaire Powerball jackpot tonight.
11:03And I got $10 worth. I could be sitting on here.
11:06I could be rich as hell right now. We don't know.
11:09I love it. So you, but you won't know Loveland for Warren.
11:13Yeah, that's why I mean, they go locking it in.
11:16We said, he said targets, yards, touchdowns, everything. So we're going to do individual stats, five bucks a pop.
11:22We're going to do like a, which one. Okay.
11:25Parlay here or something. Brown Robin. Well, see now you're, you're saying you're asking me, you just said, Oh, well you, I can't have two guys.
11:33Now you want to do an individual category where it's item.
11:36You said, you said I'll take points. I said, I think he's going to, which would then lead to targets more fantasy points.
11:43Would it not? That's what we're talking about here.
11:46I think, let's take, let's take injuries out of it.
11:49Let's take fantasy points per game. PPR fantasy points per game.
11:53You take more and I'll take Loveland. Sure. Okay.
11:55All right. Done. Done deal. Love it. Love it.
11:58Points per game. Okay. Well, Hey, but before anybody gets hurt here, if I, I'll let it, I'll let it stand and let it be known.
12:06If, if Loveland or Warren gets hurt and to get the game, you know, one of them's going to get hurt in
12:13the first quarter and skew the stats. It's points per game without the hurt game included.
12:18Well, nobody's hurt yet. I'm not saying it could be your guy.
12:22You better, you go. I'm telling you, we can, we can set, we can set a minimum of games played.
12:28You want to do 10 games, 12 games? It was like, we could set up.
12:32I'm just saying, if the guy doesn't want that average drug down from a, it's a coin flip.
12:38It's a, listen, listen, listen, guys, it's a coin.
12:41Apparently it's not a coin flip. This stipulation could easily help you out.
12:45I mean, it started off. We started off. Yeah, we're starting off.
12:48It's going to be Tyler Warren against her. You started off saying, Hey, Colson Loveland, I, I, I medium disagree because Colson Loveland is, you know, is this.
12:57And I was like, okay, well, no, no, no, no, no, I medium disagreed when you said Loveland and burden is the same bet.
13:04And it's not because burden is a wide receiver.
13:07And I got 50 of those. I like, and Loveland's a tight end.
13:11And I got six that I want on my team.
13:14And I got a couple that I like after that.
13:17And then the other ones, especially if you have to figure out which one should be in your lineup every week.
13:24Now, best ball, I enjoy having three, how tight it two or three tight ends.
13:28And it just, the computer picks it, whatever happens.
13:31But like, if I got to have one in my lineup every week, I want to top six.
13:37And to see what happens. I mean, all right.
13:39So literally a top six tight end last year.
13:42So what are we doing? Didn't say what and Bo didn't say what we talked about around the difference, but you just,
13:49the way you, the way you were talking about Colson Loveland just now is like, that's a maximum.
13:55And I disagree. It's not a maximum. It's the same.
13:58It's the same. It's the same speculative bet is what I was saying.
14:02Like you're, you're betting that he finishes at tight end three or better.
14:06If you draft him at tight end three, are you not?
14:09I mean, yes. And no, you're betting that you're betting that on the guarantee that the idea that you're trying to guarantee yourself a top five tight end.
14:18And if it's a slippery slope, especially at three, nine, like you, you could pass on him at three, nine and probably get Tyler Warren at four, four.
14:26And if that's your guy, that's your guy. That's fine.
14:29But like this guy obviously wants to tight end early and he wanted it to be Colson Loveland.
14:35And maybe what, you know, he had passed on a chance to get the stack and put Jaden, Caleb Williams beside him.
14:42That's the kind of angle that I might've played that he takes Jaden Daniels and has no stack correlation, which is fine.
14:48Just saying. Um, but like there's, I feel a lot better about taking Colson Loveland around earlier and, and stacking him with
14:55Caleb Williams, then taking Tyler Warren and that being like, I really don't want anything to do with the quarterback situation necessarily.
15:02Why would you not want anything to do with the quarterback?
15:05He's coming back from a torn Achilles. He's full.
15:08He's not Caleb Williams. You're not. Yeah. And he was also like a top five quarterback where he got hurt.
15:14What are we doing? All right. Hang on. Give me your top six tight ends for redraft.
15:20Uh, obviously those two, then I have craft. I have craft and Warren ahead of Loveland.
15:24War. Loveland is five. And then I would put pits at six.
15:28Kincaid at seven. Fanning at eight at seven. Ooh.
15:31Yeah. I've been saying. All right. All right. All right.
15:34You, you just seem very, very entrenched in this argument.
15:37And then I mean, I, it makes your top six, which last year, Kyle pits was dead.
15:42And I was like, I'd give him a chance.
15:45If I was you, I, when did I say, this was dead.
15:49Oh, the whole off season last year. Yeah, I did.
15:52I was wrong. He's not dead anymore. He had 118 targets and now, and now he's with the tight end junior whisperer.
15:59I don't know what, what is Kevin Stefanski's calling card?
16:02It's tight end, right? I mean, you got Harold man across the board, like whatever, but I don't, I don't, I'm not
16:09necessarily like, Oh, I'm the big, I don't have very much.
16:12Let me tell you, I'll tell you exactly how much Kyle pits I have in best ball.
16:17Oh, I got all the, I got tons of fanning.
16:20It's not very much. To be honest, I love, I got fanning.
16:24I have, I have fanning. I don't have, I don't have copets.
16:28Oh, I've, I have 2% cop pits. You. All right.
16:31All right. Let's jump back into this mock. We'll, we'll further debate tight end as we, as we move, move along here.
16:37So we left off with enjoy that. Derek Henry.
16:40We got Chris Olave, Malik neighbors at the three Oh two Brees hall at the three Oh three Javante at the three
16:47Oh four Rashi rice at the three five George Pickens at the three six Josh Jacobs.
16:52Three seven Kyron Williams, three eight Loveland, uh, three nine flowers at three 10 Bucky at three 11 and lad at the three 12.
16:59So through through, through obviously we're through, uh, seven rounds.
17:02If you're listening on the podcast, um, what, which build is, is going through your head right now?
17:08Is that you like, you dislike, where was, where's the mistakes made?
17:12Where's the, your favorite targets here? What do we, what do we got here through seven?
17:17Where is Parker Washington? That's going to be my favorite team.
17:20I love it. He, he's got, he, he went, he went Rocky Irvin over like a guaranteed lower, potentially lower ceiling, but much higher floor Kyron.
17:28If you took CD lamb, a chance, swapped out Bucky for Kyron, and then added Ibuka, Odunze, Parker, Washington.
17:34Like that's just a much better feeling. First six.
17:37I'm not here to rain on the Bucky Irvin parade.
17:40We talked about him a ton last week. You could be smashing with Bucky Irvin at three.
17:45Oh my bad. I got the, I got the arrows wrong.
17:48Kyron was gone. My bad. the third round reversal I've been doing.
17:52So, you know, I use on this screen. I see third round reversal so often.
17:57No third round reversal. Got it. So my bad.
17:59He did not take Bucky over Kyron. Kyron was gone, but he did take Bucky Irvin over Scadaboo, which is kind of aggressive still right this minute.
18:08But yeah, that's interesting. It's just a workload. And I think the problem, the only reason that I'm still not like fully
18:14wheels up, I got a bunch of scat in the fourth round, but I like, I would be like much more in on him.
18:22If I just, we didn't see Jackson dark throwing him the ball last year, his skillset at being able to catch, the
18:29ball, what he, his catches are inflated due to like a massive Russell Wilson game, you know?
18:34Yeah. I mean, as long as they're going to throw it to him, he'll be fine.
18:39That's really the way I look at it. They throw it to Scadaboo.
18:43He's going to be great. He's going to, well, I mean, one of them got a, I'm sorry, I was about to say his recency bias.
18:51So Scadaboo got his foot blown off last year too, at the end.
18:55So, well, he tried to play through it. It's the same dented can as Jeremiah would say.
19:00They both got hurt last year. Scadaboo was awesome before he got hurt.
19:04But Bucky was kind of, it just, the, the aggregate numbers just don't come out good.
19:09Then he didn't get any carries inside the five.
19:12I would be Scadaboo over Bucky, but that's just because I think that he's going to handle 65% of the, 65% of the snaps in the workload.
19:20And I think he's going to be fine back.
19:23We're hearing the reports out of camp that they're taking him off in two minute situations, which I absolutely hate for Tyrone Tracy.
19:30Shout out to you. No, Tyrone. No. Oh, take a Scad off in two minutes.
19:35Yeah. They're playing in Tampa. They're playing a bunch of, a bunch of pony personnel where they got, but yeah, Kenneth Gainwell
19:41on the field at the same time. Two of them.
19:44It's a great idea. I mean, there's Spider-Man me.
19:47Why not? But see that Irving Bucky Irving quote.
19:50What is it? He said, I learned a lot about myself last year.
19:54That's the first time really in my history of football playing that I've missed games and been hurt.
19:59And I came out stronger. I like that. Mentally tough.
20:03Mentally hardened. After missing snaps. Big cup nugget right there.
20:06Big cup like that nugget. I like it. I like that Bucky Irving just being like, I learned.
20:11I learned. I had to learn. I had to learn from my father.
20:15Like he learned. Yeah, no, I mean, Bucky's, Bucky's a bad, Bucky's a bad dude, man.
20:20Don't, don't let anybody convince you otherwise. It's just, it's gotten a little bit, it's gotten a little bit cloudy, but him
20:27going off the board, I think he's been around like RB 21, 22.
20:31That's ridiculous. There's no way. I just, we had that discussion on a show, Casey, where it was, do you think that
20:38Kenneth Gainwell, do you think that he's a more talented player than Kenneth Gainwell?
20:42Or no, it was Rashad White. And we all said yes.
20:45And I mean, it, it worked out that way because I mean, he came in his job and it's Kenneth Gainwell and Rashad White are very similar players.
20:54If Bucky is healthy, this is his backfield. I think he's RB 18 right here in this draft to that point.
21:00at least definitely feels better than RB 18 at three, seven.
21:04You have Jacobs go. How, how concerned are we with Jacobs?
21:07You gotta, you gotta start to, you gotta start to do the people's eyebrow and start looking at Josh Jacobs a little funny, man.
21:15This is just lower body injuries piling up for an older running back.
21:19Like what are you, are you, what's your level of concern?
21:22Um, I mean, not really mostly just for some sort of a suspension, you know, that's really my only concern.
21:28Well, I mean, he never got charged with anything.
21:31Yeah. I mean, I hope not. I hope, I hope we're good.
21:35I mean, obviously if something terrible happened, then he should get charged, but yeah, no, for sure.
21:40Like, like don't guys, we guys and gals and everyone listening to this, we're not making light of a legal situation.
21:46I'm just saying that he never actually got charged with anything.
21:50Yeah. He turned himself into police. He was released.
21:52He's never been charged. So, you know, Schefter saying that there could be discipline is a little bit different than Pukanichua as
21:59big D would say, just doing, doing his off season rounds of just straight nonsense.
22:04Yeah. But, you know, like you said, there are, you know, he is, he is a bit injured right now, allowing Marshawn
22:11Lloyd to be, you know, nine and out there.
22:13So let's go. I know last year I was really riding the Marshawn Lloyd train saying, bouncing back and, and getting a part of this backfield.
22:21I think they want to use two backs. They're not opposed to using two backs.
22:26The floors lose two backs a ton. Like it just, Josh Jacobs has been great.
22:31And I, if Josh Jacobs is playing, he's going to continue to be great.
22:35Like he was hurt for a large portion of last year and played through it.
22:40Like what we saw at the end of the year was not Josh Jacobs.
22:44He was, that was, that was him playing with a half a leg.
22:48Yeah. Yeah. I mean, 28 touchdowns the last two years, man.
22:51Like I do think though, I do think that we got the discounted version of Jonathan Brooks in Marshawn Lloyd, Jonathan Brooks flying up the draft board.
23:00Still, nobody really cares or believes in Marshawn Lloyd anymore because it's been so long and we don't have what you got
23:06to do is you got to go follow the Packer, find the right Packers beat reporters and follow those guys because every
23:13single day they talk about every single time they talk about Marshawn Lloyd, it is.
23:18Holy hell. This is, he is a special athlete.
23:21But what we do, Shev is you stack up a couple of those soft tissues, boy, we don't want to talk about you no more.
23:28Exactly. Well, it's too painful. It's too painful because you start, you start letting yourself, you start getting, you start getting the
23:35little knob and you start turning the fun meter way up on a Tuesday for no reason.
23:40Now, all of a sudden you traded a 20, 27 second from Marshawn Lloyd and then post nut clarity hits and you are regretting everything until football.
23:49Well, and then when you drafted him in 2024 or whatever, it was ahead of a couple of good players in the second round.
23:56Cause you were up there with that. And then he sits on your bench for two years, gives you absolutely zero.
24:02It hurts. It hurts. Absolutely. Absolutely. Speak is from experience.
24:06Yeah. You got it. You got to learn to live with the pain, baby.
24:10That's what you got to learn to do. If you believe live with the pain, live with it.
24:15Well, you know, it's got to hurt to feel good.
24:18you know, one thing, especially with you guys is one thing that has always been a prevailing thing here is it is patience.
24:26You have to exercise patience. Yeah. And if you don't get the outcome you want and it's, it's because it's not because they suck.
24:33It's not, it's not a, uh, it's not a Jonathan Mingo situation where we're just, he's just out there just, yeah.
24:39You know what I'm saying? Yeah. But he's been hurt.
24:42Then you just have to exercise patience. Do you want to give up?
24:46Imagine same thing with Jonathan Brooks. It's this, it is, it is literally parallel stories, parallel ships in the night passing each other.
24:54And nobody seems to care about Marshawn Lloyd, but everybody's all, everybody's all super horned up about Jonathan Brooks.
24:59And now he's going in the eighties and best ball.
25:02And that's just not a fun time for anybody.
25:05Yeah. Big co some, any thoughts here or we can move on to a couple of team builds.
25:11Well, I like Travion Henderson at five, eight a ton.
25:14And I was looking at the dude's got James cook, Barkley, uh, Kyron Williams.
25:18So he's got three stud backs and then Devonta Smith.
25:21Then he goes back to Travion. He's like, I can't believe Travion still on board.
25:26I don't really need another running back, but I got to take him completely understand.
25:31Um, I like, and then he goes DJ more, Caleb Williams at seven, eight, I'll take it.
25:36And then, you know, trying to put it together with Pittman is a solid three.
25:40I would love to see Pittman is my four, but when you got four running backs like that, it only need two are going to be studly.
25:49You know, you're basically picking bench players at this point.
25:52So, um, I like that start. I probably, if you, if, if you, if you told me I was going to get
25:59Henderson into fifth, it being the guy picking in the eighth spot, Mike could have traded in, you know, say Quan Barkley
26:05for AJ Brown or something like that. And then I'm, you know, I'm like, all right now that just looks ridiculous.
26:12Um, that's, that's a fun looking team to me.
26:15I like the running back at the run at that running back start hits and all those, Oh, Oh, but they're supposed
26:21to be, it's a, it's a tough sledding for just about anybody.
26:25Then Devonta Smith. Like, I love this start. The Travion spot would be the spot where I say, that's a good, if
26:32that hits, you're going to be really tough to beat.
26:35Um, but maybe, you know, which is that a spot where maybe you would go with Tucker craft to just solidify the
26:42tight end position or, or maybe do you go Roma duns?
26:45Hey, well, you, you made the bet. The Colston Loveland's your guy.
26:49So you're not taking another tight end for a very long time.
26:52No, on the, uh, on the, uh, on the one 18.
26:56What am I? am I one off here? Yeah.
26:59Yeah. Yeah. I'm one off. Oh, sorry. It could be awesome.
27:02It could be awesome. It could be awesome. And that's fun.
27:05And I don't, I'm not against the pick really at all, but is there, was there like a safer way to travel
27:12there that maybe would have been a little better with the start you had?
27:16Well, I mean, I think with the, the three running backs and then swinging for, if you're going maximum upside, there's, there's,
27:23I mean, craft craft is the craft is the, the ceiling home run swing because Drake may goes off the board right before him.
27:31I don't really see anything. I mean, you could go, you could go Jameson Williams, but it's the same bed as Travion
27:37with less, with less security and upside. So craft would be the, would be the guy there.
27:43I mean, if you wanted to go, I'm not going to Andre Swift, if I've already got three of those running backs,
27:49because the Andre Swift, if he, if he nukes his RB 10, if Travion nukes, it's 90% of Gibbs.
27:55Yeah. No, I mean, big co what do you, you kind of started that conversation.
28:00You want to put a cap on it before we move on?
28:04Yeah. I know. I know that again, it's my first redraft mock and I have been in the.
28:09Up the best ball streets. And for me, Henderson in the fifth round, it's an auto click and best ball.
28:15Maybe it's a little different if he's got to be in my lineup every week, but I've watched, I watched the old
28:22every touch, every, every touch, every target, every run, every handoff, every, everything.
28:26It takes forever. Um, that it like, I don't know, honestly, why he gets, talked about as quote unquote, as disappointing as a seat.
28:33Like, look at my, look at my man's numbers.
28:36I like on less than 200 attempts. He's got 900 and something rushing yards and a decent amount of catches as a rookie on a, on a team.
28:45Who's got a second year quarterback with a new offensive coordinator.
28:48Like craziness was going on with that. You know, they won way more games than they thought they were going to win.
28:55They're way ahead of schedule. They made it to the dang super bowl.
28:59I'm just saying like, yes, you could have taken Tucker craft, Roman dunes, a Parker Washington, Jamison Williams.
29:05All those would have been good. Like you already got three running backs, but like Travion hits, like he's a dude.
29:11Travion. Absolutely. Absolutely. Smashing. There's no other player that you're going to take.
29:15There's no other player that you're going to take in that round with that pick that has the same, that has the same home run upside.
29:23The Travion. Dillon is full stop. I am in 100% alignment with you there.
29:27Yeah. Do you, do you, so going over to one of the one three spot, he's got chase.
29:33He's got Collins, Brees, Tyler Warren, Judkins, Christian Watson, then goes Laporta downs, Hubbard, white worthy.
29:38And we're, we're now in the 12th round about to go down to the 13th.
29:42Is. Do you think you got to take Laporta at seven, three, are you taking two tight ends that close?
29:49No. And not Laporta. Right. I mean, if, if you got to, like, I get, I mean, I can't, the, the, the,
29:55the lions are projected the easiest schedule and they're projected to score to most points, I think this year.
30:01And like, if Laporta is healthy, he's been cleared for training camp.
30:05That's like the part, like I got a handful of Laporta because he's, stays around long enough and, and underdog.
30:11And I, it's a good bet, but like in a managed league like this, where you got time, you got Tyler Warren on your team already.
30:19I just feel like it just, I think that's too big of a gamble.
30:23If you did, it's almost like you taking the gamble, you taking the upside swing on Laporta.
30:29If you got six studs already and none of them's a tight end, if you already had a, have a tight end,
30:35I just don't see the real upside of taking Laporta.
30:38Really? Um, you're going to plug it clear for training camp and back injury.
30:43Like, let's just see him go. Let's go. Let's see him get hit.
30:47Let's see him catch the ball and fall down.
30:50You know, let's see if he's gotten he's been back.
30:53Let me, let me go. Let me, let me, let me jump in with you here.
30:58I, please tell me Laporta is fine. Yeah, he's been fine.
31:01He's, he's been doing all the things he got caught and he went to the ground and got up and surprisingly there
31:08were no, like his spinal cord wasn't showing. So he's fine.
31:11I'm saying, dude, he's fine right now. I'm telling you, dude, my pocketbooks about to look real good.
31:17If Laporta, I mean, listen, I have absolutely no problem picking Laporta.
31:20I just, I don't, I'm just not gonna take Tyler.
31:23Yeah. I, there's no, that's what I'm saying. Like you've capped, you've capped yourself because you took a bench player when you
31:30could have got somebody like, I like Caleb Williams way more in that spot.
31:35I like Justin Herbert way more in that spot.
31:37Let me, let me say this. Like you say bench, like I, last year I was in a, in a, my, my
31:44only redraft league was a $500 league that I got invited, invited into.
31:48And really, and it's with keepers and all stuff.
31:51But last year was like the original league startup.
31:54So it was brand new. And the only reason I started, I got into it is because it's friends and no rake.
32:00So it's not, you know, like all the five times, 12, 6,000 bucks, all of it is in the pot for winnings.
32:07So like, you're not giving away anything and you got better odds to win money in a league like that.
32:13And, you know, getting return on investment percentage, all that stuff, yada, yada, yada.
32:18Well, I had some tough times because I had a horrible, I took some ridiculously bad receivers in the draft and it
32:24was all I could do to patch together some wide receivers.
32:28And I had Fannin and Tyler Warren. This is non-premium, just straight PPR.
32:32And I had Fannin and Tyler Warren in my lineup every week.
32:35I was flexing the tight end and non and regular PPR, no tight end premium.
32:40Cause I had to, um, yeah, like I had Cortland Sutton, but that's, that's an outlier of a situation.
32:46If your guys were, it is, it is. Fannin was a Fannin was an outlier rookie season, late draft pick tight end
32:53on the Browns that nobody thought was going to do anything.
32:56It was outlier, but like if, if Laporta's hitting, he's obviously a flex every week with no tight end premium.
33:02It's just like you said, I mean, I would, I could definitely take Caleb, you know, I'm taking Caleb Williams, you know, Caleb, Caleb, Justin Herbert.
33:10Like that's, I can, I, now I will, I will entertain an argument for any, you know, I'll entertain an argument for
33:17Laporta over any of the following picks in the next round and a half.
33:21Calvin Ridley, that's who it was. I feel like horrible wide receivers.
33:25Yeah. I feel like, I feel like Herbert or Herbert or Caleb Williams both give you, give you access.
33:31Like you don't have to worry about your quarterback anymore as opposed to, all right, well, dang, who, who do I, who do I got to play?
33:39Do I got to play? Do I got to play Laporta this week?
33:43You're going to be looking sideways. I know. You know, you're going to be looking sideways trying to decide which one to play.
33:50If they both go off in week one and you're like, Oh, study Matt, like make, make it easier on yourself.
33:57Just take a stud quarterback that you're going to play every week, no matter what.
34:01But in a one quarterback redraft league, and you can wait for five more rounds and get Purdy or Bo Nix.
34:08That just, I, yep. You know, I mean, there's, there's, I think that's just, I like, like it's circumstantial for me, whether or not I do that.
34:16If I, if I feel like I'm in a spot where I'm like in a little bit of a dead spot where
34:23I don't love anybody necessarily like a ton around it.
34:26And it's like this, I've already, I like where my team is.
34:30And I feel like this gives me a potential edge.
34:33I'll pull the trigger, but like, I'm, I'm mostly like, I'm mostly way like with what you said, big co like, am
34:40I going to be really that upset if I get Knicks or Purdy?
34:44I mean, my homes just went super late in this.
34:47Let me read you. Let me read you. Baker Mayfield at 13 one is fine with me, you know, but, but having
34:53Jalen hurts could potentially win me weeks. Yeah. Sure.
34:56That's the, that's the idea. Like, right. You've got top five quarterback ceiling, top two historically quarterback ceiling with Justin Herbert and Kayla Williams.
35:04And like, I just don't, from a roster construction perspective, I think that just kind of, it muddles things up as opposed to solving problems.
35:11Like now you got to go get, you've got to go get another quarterback late, which Stafford MVP season.
35:17Sure. There's enough value late where you can do this, but I would just rather have that question answered, especially if I
35:24don't love any of the picks here coming off the board.
35:27Yeah. All right. Let's let's shoot over. I wasn't looking at this one 11 team.
35:32So we got CD lamb. We got H and we got a Bucky egg Buka Rome, Parker, Washington, Harvey at seven 11,
35:39Johnston at eight to Lawrence, then favorite team, favorite team, Jordan Mason at 10 to, and then a little different from kind
35:46of the, some of the quarterback discussion that we're having.
35:49They do. This is what I'm fine with doubling up is, is if you went like a, you know, Chig and Johnson
35:55here at the end, like two cheaper. Absolutely. Absolutely.
35:58Um, and then went with a second. Cool. We could talk about the second quarterback, uh, golf branch.
36:04And then he's still got a pick here, but I really liked this team.
36:08Um, you know, Mason, I don't know if he's going to stay in the 10th round, but I feel like that could
36:15be a really, really good piece right there. Harvey.
36:18I know, I know all of us kind of feel like Harvey's going to be fine with some PPR and then really fun receivers, really fun running backs.
36:26I mean, this is, this is the home run swing that you're, I mean, you stack Parker Washington and Trevor Lawrence.
36:33Trevor Lawrence was what? Top four last year. I think he was sixth in points per game.
36:38QB scoring behind Brock Purdy last year. So like, I just, now he just took a third tight end.
36:44Now we're just doing, we're doing, we're doing silly stuff now, but you know, whatever.
36:48I mean, I take, I like the branch pick though.
36:51That's a fun one. Yeah. I mean, that's, that's what, that's what I'm doing with those last picks.
36:57I'm not, I'm not stacking depth options at tight end.
37:00Yeah. I think we're, we're closing out here. He's yeah.
37:03I can't imagine that would be the, the pick.
37:06Respectfully tribal chief. Of course. Yeah. We just gave you plenty of love.
37:10Plenty of love. No, it's a really solid team, man.
37:13Yeah. I don't know if it was a joke, but they showed the, what the rookies bought with their, first paycheck or whatever.
37:20And they said, and they have, you know, sent money, my dad and did this, bought something for this, did that, bought a car, bought a house.
37:28It said Zachariah branch. It said it bought the S and P 500.
37:32That's a B 500. And I don't know if that's a joke or not, but if it's not a joke, that's going
37:39to be, that's going to be, that's a massive stock.
37:42I was going to talk about that nugget for the next.
37:46If he's got, if he's got his head on his shoulders like that, first paycheck goes straight into long-term investing, massive star stock of Zachariah branch.
37:54I didn't know you rolled like that. Zachariah branch.
37:56I didn't know. Shoot me DM. I can put you on stocks.
38:00I didn't know you rolled like that. I have massive stock up.
38:04Yeah, man. This isn't his first payday though. Like he, he was the number one receipt.
38:09This isn't his first payday. So he's not new, new, new money.
38:12Yeah. Yeah. Pro true. Yeah. Yeah. So, I mean, he, he, he's got some good advice.
38:17He's probably, he's probably been getting some good advice for a little while now.
38:22Hopefully, hopefully, I mean, hopefully all these guys are getting, getting the proper guidance with, with their, with their newfound, newfound earnings.
38:28But yeah, that's, I thought that was really cool.
38:31And Casey, you know, I've, I've had to capitulate a little bit.
38:35I still think that he's going to be a gadget guy, you know, Luther, Luther burden, Luther burden usage light.
38:41Is what I could, I could project, but he, I mean, he's an awesome return guy.
38:46So same background as Parker Washington. You know, I have an erection.
38:50So, so, so strong that it's, it's causing sound like sound blindness for Parker Washington.
38:54So for sure, he's got the background. He's electric with the ball in his hands.
38:59Like, I don't, I don't, there's, and it's been consistent.
39:02Like he's just been kicking ass all OTAs, mini camp training camp.
39:06It's just consistent. And so if he balls out in the, in the, he balls out in the, in the preseason, I'm
39:12going to have to, I'm going to have to eat some crow here.
39:16What are we doing with Alec Pierce? Get seven, nine here.
39:20Hell no. Not even if there's a fire. I'd take Denzel Boston over Alec Pierce right now.
39:25Yeah. Coach says that extra shot didn't happen, but I think that just stock up Josh Downs.
39:30Well, Josh Downs has got the, the old groiniotomy going on.
39:34That's nice. Stock up, stock up Ashton Doolin. Stock up Tyler Warren.
39:37Stock up Tyler Warren. Yeah. Absolutely. Yeah. Absolutely. Yeah.
39:40Give me a 27% target share to Tyler Warren.
39:43So we can shut up all the haters. 27%.
39:4627 for him. 18 for JT. Let's get tight in one and RB one all in, all in the same building.
39:52Any, any other builds that really jump out to you?
39:55Then maybe talk a little about some late round players here.
39:59I mean, I, like I already said, we, we all like what, what Texmo is.
40:03Is that what his name is? What Texmo said, what Texmo did.
40:07I'm trying to see if there's anybody here that, that anybody here that's been listening to the, the jets camp hype, which
40:14I mean, honestly, that might be just like, you know, two gorillas farting into farting into a microphone.
40:19But yeah, I mean, I do generally like the, the one three team.
40:23If, if we switched the board out for something, maybe different.
40:27I like that start. That's a real, that's a really good team, man.
40:31I just, I don't know that I want Christian Watson though.
40:34I don't know if I want him at six, 10.
40:37Why? I don't know. He was on pace. Okay.
40:40So obviously you have to do the pace thing, Christian Watson.
40:43Cause we never get a full season. Christian Watson got to pay some, but they, but, but I mean, when he came
40:50back, he was second in yards per route run or something crazy like that.
40:54He was on pace for 60 for a thousand and 10 touchdowns.
40:58And they've, they've eliminated targets out of the backfield.
41:01It seems like it's going to be much more consolidated.
41:04This is the best. This is the best version, the best opportunity share that Christian Watson's had.
41:09And he got the, he got the bag this off season.
41:13He got a massive bag. Yeah. I mean, he got paid.
41:16He got paid. I don't know. I, I just, that one's that's not a click that I'm making a lot.
41:22And I'm, I'm probably, maybe I'm wrong there, but I, I don't, I don't really love anything else around it necessarily though.
41:29So let's talk through it though. Like what's, what's the, what's the drawback to you?
41:33Cause I, I'm curious. Cause I want to know some injuries.
41:37And I don't know that I believe in him like that.
41:40Like I don't, I think he's, I think he's fine.
41:43I think he's functions in the offense. Well, as what he, what his role can be as role could be huge, but
41:50you know, we'll see, basically we'll see what happens with craft and golden and read.
41:55If everybody's healthy, what this looks like. And I'm not sure it's going to be like a massive target share to Christian Watson.
42:02But I think he's, I think he's just, it doesn't have a massive market share, but I think he's a stud.
42:08I said last year, like two, not last year, but the year before that, right.
42:13When he got hurt, like his, his last, like nine catches, not targets, nine catches were all 30 yards or more or something.
42:20He's obviously a big play machine. We know that.
42:23Yeah. At the hamstring situation, he went and got to special doctors.
42:26They found some years, right. I mean, they found some stuff out, but like, but then he comes back last year after the ACL.
42:34Cause he got his hamstrings, right. And towards ACL mid through the, you know, last year before.
42:39So in 2025, he gets, he's coming back from the ACL.
42:42He steps on the field, immediately leads team in targets.
42:46And like, that's the guy and the getting red zone targets to either, no matter what quarterbacks in there, the quarterbacks nicked up.
42:53Blake Willis comes in throwing it to Christian Watson.
42:55This guy's been injured. Severely injured two times on this team.
42:59It's in his rookie contract comes back from the second injury, starts crushing, gets a massive contract.
43:04So like he obviously without that, like in the front of Packers too, you know?
43:09So like, if like, he's obviously there in the, in the, in the noggin, in the building, like they're like, this guy's solid.
43:16Like we get, you know, in NFL people get hurt, you know, hamstrings.
43:20If, if the second injury, if the ACL was the hamstring, that whole contract might not have been there to be like, this thing is not fixed.
43:28And this is a long-term problem. And maybe we don't want to, you know, give him, give him the whole bag, but then he gets that fixed.
43:36And he, the ACL that happens to everybody. And so like the fact that they gave him the money that they didn't make him come back.
43:44They didn't franchise them. They didn't make him prove it.
43:47Like they gave it to him. And I just felt that that's like, they know what they got.
43:53Every time he's been healthy, it's been an ascension.
43:56Every time he gets hurt, he comes back. He's better.
43:59He gets hurt. He comes back. He's better. They throw him the ball.
44:03They throw him the ball. I think Christian Watson is about ready to roll.
44:07He could get hurt. Anybody could get hurt. Yeah.
44:10I don't love making any decision. I think it could be a study.
44:14I think he's about to be if healthy, he's about to be a monster.
44:18If like, yes, you got to throw that. If there, because he has been hurt different injuries, got the bag from the
44:25team that drafted him after he got hurt. They know him.
44:28They see him practicing. They see him showing up doing his homework.
44:32I'm all in. All right. So we got, we got projections and we got vibes.
44:37So Christian Watson locked and loaded baby. Well, it's the, it's the archetype of the player.
44:42Yeah. With the room to grow. Like we talked about Jamison Williams.
44:45We talked about Jamison Williams with that whole deal.
44:48And just how it doesn't have to be a lot of volume for him to finish as a wide receiver.
44:5412. It don't have, it doesn't have to be a lot of volume.
44:58And Christian Watson is six, four, two 52, two, two Oh eight or whatever.
45:03And he's been really good in the red zone throughout his career.
45:06Just being able to throw the ball up and jump balls and all that and whatnot.
45:11So it's, it's similar bets between him, Alec Pierce and Jamison Williams.
45:15It's just that he's got, he's got the bag they had.
45:18They cleared out targets for him. So he's a wide receiver one.
45:22That's right. I just, I'm, I'm curious to see how this, how this shakes out because if he's healthy and he's going
45:29to get more than like a 15 or a 16% target share, this could get really aggressive real quick.
45:35Yeah. Yeah. I guess I'm just, I don't, I don't see it as what I do.
45:40Like Alec Pierce is, is, you know, that's, that's what I, I think the original Alec Pierce role and the Christian Watson role feel similar to me.
45:48Yeah. It could be really awesome. He could ascend.
45:51He could be healthy. I just, I don't know.
45:53And another, and another wide receiver sort of emerges there.
45:56I just feel like it really, which, you know, I think, I think he's got the early onset lead for sure.
46:03I mean, he's been there. They paid him all the things you guys just said.
46:08I just, I don't know. I don't, I don't believe he's, he's a, but, but again, the room, the area that we're
46:14picking, I can't, there's not a, I don't, there's not that many better bets I would want to make.
46:20So I guess it's a bad, yeah. Would you go, would you go Christian Watson over, over Pollard?
46:26If I needed a running back, I would take Pollard.
46:29Like if I was, if I started really wide receiver heavy and I'm like, Hey, I really need to lead on a two here.
46:36I would, I wouldn't mind that. Well, that's kind of the, that's kind of the scenario.
46:41Yeah. I mean, Brian Thomas could be very similar to Christian Watson, right?
46:45If you listen on the podcast, they're right next to each other.
46:49Six, 10, six, 11, Brian Thomas. Yeah. Do you go more or do you go Christian Watson this year?
46:55Hmm. I mean, Christian Watson feels like a, a better potential.
46:58I don't know. I want, I just want to take Marv, but I know, I know.
47:03That's why I asked. I'm probably wrong though. Well, I mean, I, this is, this is the thing.
47:09I would probably, honestly, I'd probably click Marv there, but that's, that's, that's way more of a projection than it is for Christian Watson.
47:16That's what I'm saying. Like nobody knows. I mean, I know.
47:19Nobody. There's no chance. I'm taking Marvin Harrison. Yeah.
47:22I don't, I think you're, I think you guys are probably right.
47:26That's a, that's just such a, it's such a tough one though, because again, you've been burned by Christian Watson and how
47:33incredible it was the, for his rookie year. And then we've just kind of gotten these glimpses over and over and over again.
47:40And I think I understand it. I think the dynasty brain hurts me when Christian, cause like, I don't want anything to do with Christian Watson on.
47:48He's, he's too volatile to me. Like when the, sell, when the price is high, let me get out.
47:54I'll go do something else. I just, there's just a lot of volatility in the price over time that I've seen of Christian Watson.
48:01So in redraft, I think, I think you got to take Christian Watson over Marv.
48:06I think that's, it's one season you're shooting for, the star.
48:09Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Good pick and redraft. Yeah.
48:12I think my, I think dynasty, we're talking dynasty.
48:15I can, that's not what I'm not going to answer a question like that.
48:19I'm yeah. I may still, I may still, I may still not give you my Christian Watson.
48:24If you send your Marvin Harrison over, I may really think about that.
48:28It's probably the right answer to take that trade, but like in one, one season right here, right now.
48:34Oh yeah. One for sure. I'm going to, I want to see if we can crank the big co fund meter up here for a second.
48:42So we got Malik Willis going 14, nine. Oh, well, really right before I get to that question, I mentioned like pretty
48:49much everybody, but one or two people took two quarterbacks.
48:52Are you taking two quarterbacks in, in the draft?
48:55If they're not like, if I would take, I would make Malik Willis or Tyler Shuck, my second quarterback, um, just from
49:02the, with the rushing upside, just not making Jordan love your second or Jared, Jared golf, your second quarterback for what?
49:08I mean, no, but I mean, Jared golf is hard as like Jared golf's projected again with the lions being so high.
49:15He's, he's been freaking top 10 every year. And now he's like, suppose, I guess I didn't look at the schedule hardcore,
49:22but like to be ranked number one, you're obviously just got a, a good lucky draw with a bad division or something
49:28like he, you know, they are projected to lead the league in points this year.
49:33So Jared golf is probably the wrong statue quarterback to throw in there.
49:37You know, it's definitely not, I'm not taking Sam Darnold for fun at the, I'm not, you know, I'm not even going
49:44to grab Jared, uh, Jordan love is to have a second quarterback, but like Kyler Murray, Tyler Shuck, Malik Willis, like the
49:51guys that run around just in case it starts hitting hard.
49:54Like you might, they, they might, make Joe, Justin Herbert sit on the bench for a week or two in the right
50:01matchups, you know, like they might just, you got to take a chance on that.
50:05If it pops, you know, so generally not too upside for, for a second one, Shev, you're, I think you're pretty much.
50:12Yeah. I mean, if I take, if I take Trevor Lawrence, I'm not taking it.
50:17I'm probably not going to take a second quarterback unless it is a Malik Willis or Tyler here's or me neither.
50:23Right. I don't want, but like I, the one, the one redraft league I did last year was a, obviously a home
50:30league type situation because it was off, you know, it was on sleeper, but you know, disassociated, no rake, blah, blah, blah.
50:37Just a bunch of dudes. Cause then boys had two quarterbacks before I had my first one.
50:42Like literally, you know, I, I took, I took Brock Purdy in the 12th or the 13th round last year.
50:48And half the league had two quarterbacks before I took my first one.
50:52Yeah. Well, they're the only reason that I would take the only reason I'm going to take a second one at the end.
50:59And I got lucky last. I took Brock and he got hurt of course.
51:04Um, and I got, and I picked up Trevor Lawrence off the waivers, you know, because he was left for dead and
51:10all the guys that took two quarterbacks didn't even take Trevor Lawrence.
51:14Um, so I just had, you know, just had to do what I had to do, but you could take that upside running back.
51:21I'm going to put them at the bottom of my bench, that upside quarterback running quarterback on my bench, because everybody else has got all the quarterbacks.
51:30Yeah. I mean, for, for the other, obviously redrafts, there's a lot more homey feeling or workplace feeling to it.
51:36So that is a common thing to say. They don't know anybody else.
51:40So they're going to take that second. Exactly. Exactly.
51:43And if there was a bunch of us playing in that league, there would be like 12 decent quarterbacks on the waiver wire.
51:50So you would just go get one when you needed one and then drop them the next week or whatever.
51:56If something, if you're playing by weeks or your quarterback got hurt for a couple of weeks, whatever.
52:01But like when, if there's 24 of them, it's on people's benches already, you know, it's like, all right, well, I don't
52:08want to be starting, you know, a statue. You have to 300.
52:12You have to, 300 yards or two touchdowns, you know?
52:15Yeah. You've got to adapt to what's going on with the league.
52:19If everybody else is taking two quarterbacks, you don't have to do it.
52:23You don't have to panic and do it, but you, I mean, you make your last pick a Daniel Jones, a Tyler
52:29Shuck, you know, Kyler Murray, you, you, you adapt to what the league is telling you that you're going to like, cause
52:36you don't want to be ass out when you have to go to the waiver wire and mess around and have to start Michael Penix for a week.
52:45I mean, captain do rag, all respect. It's just not where you want to be when you're looking for a guy to
52:52score points for you on a, on a Sunday.
52:54Sure. Well, captain do rags throwing some missiles out there right now.
52:58He is throwing pitch missiles. However, I'm just saying it hasn't, no, no, no.
53:02I'm, I completely understand what you're saying. Yeah. It hasn't been as consistent as we would like to see.
53:08Hopefully he gets it together. Apparently he has the best ACL in the history of ACLs.
53:13Now I don't know. Did y'all see that? Yeah.
53:16Yeah. But like, that's just, you adapt to what's going on with the league.
53:20You don't have to panic. You still want to be a thermostat, not a thermometer, but I'm just, if in that scenario,
53:27yeah, you would take two quarterbacks, but otherwise I'm, I'm going to, I'm going to stash as many of the Zachariah branches
53:34and the, the Adonai Mitchells and the Caleb Douglas is in the Pat Bryants on, on the end of my bench, just
53:41to see what happens just for a second, just to see how it feels.
53:45Sure. Yeah. All right. Well, we were about to go to Malik Willis with the go there.
53:50And then we've got a couple of questions, answers and we'll, and we'll wrap this up.
53:55Um, Malik Willis, 14, nine, actually some decent, good, positive buzz and vibes coming out of Miami with offense.
54:01Right. I mean, and Malik Willis looking like we could, we could be, you know, maybe we're, maybe we're onto something here.
54:08Well, uh, give me your thoughts right now on kind of where Miami is from an offensive perspective and what you think of Malik Willis.
54:15If Malik Willis is, is what big co has been saying.
54:19He, he is for a lot. And what he's been in every environment outside of just what we did to him in
54:26Tennessee, then this is not going to be the worst environment.
54:29Every single one of their assets is mispriced. I mean, hoodie, hoodie came in with a, with a throuffled dolphin stack right
54:36here, going Greg Dulcich in the 12th, then closing it out with Malik Willis and Caleb Douglas, the unofficial depth chart, Joe
54:42Halfley talked about how Caleb Douglas had earned the right to be named wide receiver one.
54:47And that is, that's the first receiver that they drafted.
54:50Chris, Chris Bell is coming along slowly. I do think that once he, if, if he's able to, if he's able to
54:57get onto the field in a meaningful manner, that's going to be, that's going to be, that's going to add something to
55:04this offense that I don't think people are accounting for because I mean, I love Chris Bell, but if they're just not
55:11as like, if they're just what they were last year, which was 25th and scoring, that's better than what everyone's projecting for them right now.
55:18That's why you have people saying I'm fading to Von H and, which is one of the dumbest fucking silly.
55:25Yeah, it's, it is that we're going to, add him into the category of people that you've got a generational buying opportunity on because he's been awesome.
55:33He's the most consistent PPR weapon last year. He never had a game below 11 points in all of, you know, all of last year.
55:41So I think that this is going to be an underrated environment, big co you've been pounding the drum from Malik.
55:47Will it go get Malik. Will it stash Malik.
55:50Will it throw Malik will throw Malik will throw Malik wills in the trades for as long as I've known you.
55:56So if he is good, if he, this isn't a Justin field situation, which the offensive line is better, they've got, we
56:03talked about this when we broke down the AFC East Casey.
56:07I just think that this is a better environment than what people are giving it credit for.
56:12And it consistently, it's starting to consistently look that way.
56:15Cause Malik wills is an actual professional. Exactly. Let me, so Casey's question involved Malik wills and dolphins, right?
56:21So there's, unfortunately it's one in the same now, but who Malik wills is and why his professionalism gives him a shot
56:27is completely different than the setup that the dolphins gave him.
56:31They signed him and then traded away waddle. And they literally, they, there's, it says like, it sounds like they're doing all
56:38the right things except for adding the offensive talent.
56:40Yes. Some late draft picks and a couple of third round picks that could pan out to be nice.
56:46But as in, they say there's no divas on the team.
56:50They say everybody's a team guy there. And that's a nice start.
56:53If you're quote unquote rebuilding, but rebuilding and basically looking forward to saying, Hey, let's get a good draft pick next year.
57:00We, we did draft. The biggest thing about it, aside from what Malik wills is showing us as a man from the
57:07podium is that the coach came from green Bay with him.
57:10So you, you can put, it's not like this coach came in from another team.
57:15And the GM said, Hey, we got Malik wills for quote unquote, pretty cheap.
57:19If he's a good starting quarterback, let's give it a shot.
57:23See what happens. If he sucks, we'll get a high draft pick.
57:26If he's good, we'll franchise him for a couple of years and do what we got to do.
57:32But like this guy knows him for green Bay.
57:35So he knows what kind of person is. Then Malik wills gets to the dolphins and he goes in front of the podium.
57:42And it's like, literally his first question, they say, uh, you know, Hey Malik, you know, how do you feel about finally being a starting quarterback?
57:50And don't you think you should have really gotten a better chance to do this earlier in your career?
57:56And, you know, basically throwing shade on some other stuff that happened and put out saying Titans and Packers gave him all
58:02the opportunity to throw shade on this or throw shade on that.
58:06And, and even just maybe pump his chest for a minute.
58:09And he said, no, everything that happened helped me become who I am and be prepared for this moment today.
58:16Right. So like, yeah, maybe that was a PR answer, but maybe that was straight from the heart.
58:21I don't know, but it's, it lines up with some other items.
58:25Again, the coach bringing them in because he knew him.
58:28And then you got the offensive guy. You got the people on Miami right now saying, I'm this guy got in front
58:35of the team and I completely agree with everything he said.
58:38He told us what we're going to do and how we need to do it and what we need to do to be successful.
58:45And so it's just like, you know, is he going to go out there when the NFL season is 110% like when,
58:52when, when the ones are on the other team's defense and their game planning for him.
58:57And he goes out there with wide receivers that only dynasty, deep, deep dynasty, crazy people like us know those names.
59:04You know what I mean? He's going out there with a Chan and a group of wide receivers that not one single
59:10regular person, NFL fan has ever heard of. And Greg Dulcich to try to go against other teams, well-paid professionals that are made to tackle people.
59:18Like, is it going to be beautiful? I don't know.
59:21And I highly doubt it's going to be highly successful from the start, but if it can just be not terrible and
59:28it can be productive and building, like you said, I doubt Chris Bell plays this year.
59:33And if he does, it's going to be at the very end of the season.
59:38And like, he's got misfits and recast from everywhere.
59:41And then a couple of rookies and Caleb has been getting some good praise to be where he is as a rookie wide receiver.
59:48They got an opportunity, but like it's not, they didn't exactly put some, some nice silver lining in front of him.
59:54Right. He's got to go through, he's got to work his way out the mud.
59:59And if it works out, like I said, I mean, if you're in a dynasty startup this year and you're getting him
60:06where you're getting him, you're going to transform the league.
60:09If he's good, he's going to rush for a shit ton of yards.
60:13I mean, he's jacked. If you've seen him with his, with his, with his sleeves off, he's jacked.
60:18And he can, I saw a writeup about him being like a above average athletic quarterback.
60:23And I'm like above average, this man is top three on his legs right now above average.
60:29This dude was a paid professional writer. And I'm like, what are you talking about?
60:33Malik Willis is about if he can stay healthy, and the dolphins can be not terrible.
60:38And you got to buy in from the team, right?
60:41Like if, when the offensive linemen are like, you know, maybe as the, some of the parts can come together and will
60:48it, like they can just be, they can produce a little bit more than they should, you know, like the office of mine is really good.
60:56Well, but the wide receivers are supposedly, you know, if you, if you look at their mad ratings on the wide receivers, it ain't even good.
61:04Not even like, like, let's go out there and block our tails off.
61:08And let's, let's catch this pass. Let's take a chance.
61:11We're getting lit up over the middle and catch this, you know, couple of things I want to say first.
61:17Let's go Malik Willis. Talk about me when I'm not in the room, the way that you talk about Malik Willis.
61:24I know I want my guy right in my life.
61:27That talks about me like that when I'm not in the room.
61:30I do talk about you like that. The second thing is that this dude is, he's got, it's just all the right stuff.
61:38And it's not like last year where I was just wish casting and want casting Justin Fields to be in a, to
61:44be a good fantasy option and reliable where he gets benched seven weeks into the season or whatever it was.
61:51This feels different to me. And I just, I think it's going to be better than what people think it is.
61:57I think it's gonna be way better than what people think it is.
62:01Yeah. I mean, I think you guys all made a whole bunch of good points.
62:06I would bring back the point of, and we've, we've talked about this in previous episodes about just kind of the situation.
62:12But the thing that I like about Willis is that it feels like they're going to give him a, he's not just
62:19going to be a sacrificial lamb because those, those guys brought him over with them and knew who he was as a person.
62:26And it's like, Hey, we can, we can work with this.
62:30We can bring this guy through and he's our guy.
62:33And if this really works out, then he's our guy.
62:36And this is awesome. And if it doesn't, then we, you know, we're going to be grooming another quarterback.
62:42Got an extra one for Waddle. Unfortunately, you got the, you got the weapons to go get a quarterback.
62:47And if he sucks, you're going to have a high draft pick, but I don't think he sucks.
62:53And if they try hard, they're probably going to be bad.
62:56And they're probably going to lose a lot of games, but it's probably not going to look as bad as we think it's going to look.
63:04I don't think, you know, and especially, especially if all wide receiver can emerge.
63:09I don't know who, like, I mean, I really hope it's Caleb Douglas because that would be awesome.
63:14But, Hey, Hey, it's getting aggressive. It's getting pretty aggressive.
63:17It's getting pretty aggressive. And it's been consistent. There's a lot of these rookies.
63:22Now just go figure this. This class was terrible all throughout the off season.
63:26And now we're hearing about Deshaun Stribbling making plays in camp and Jacoby lane every day, making plays in camp and Cyrus
63:33Allen making plays in camp and Ted. I see.
63:36I need to bring up. That's my guy. I need to bring.
63:39I didn't even go bring Ted Hurst into this, but it's just amazing that we can get to real football being played again.
63:46And the spreadsheet warriors have to shut the fuck up for a few minutes.
63:51And all of a sudden there's just good football players just popping their little heads up, like whack-a-mole out of nowhere.
63:57And you just have those dudes just standing there like, well, his yards per route run historically out of a smaller school.
64:04FCS is just not good enough. And it's just, I was people talking about Ted Hurst in case you were wondering.
64:10Yeah. Like, I mean, Ted Hurst, Cyrus Allen, you name it.
64:14Like this, this, it just, it's exhausting. So I'm glad that there's actual football to be watched.
64:19I mean, I'm probably going to go into some sort of coma during football watching this weekend, just because there's just going
64:26to be wall to wall football for the next four days.
64:29So yeah. Ooh, boss. I, well, you know, we've done, I did the dash for Jalen Coker before it was cool to do the dash for Jalen Coker.
64:38Yeah. I mean, it is a, it is, it is fun to see us go through this period.
64:43I wish Sadiq was healthy right now to speak.
64:46Some Sadiq action. Yeah. But Casey looks good. Boston looks good.
64:49Strib looks good. Price looks good. Like Carnell Tate looks good.
64:53Tyson looks unreal. Like, you know, it's like, Oh shit.
64:56I mean, lemons. We're not getting a lot of lemon right now.
65:00That's all right. We don't even see, we don't even need to see lemon.
65:04Well, we don't need to see a hundred percent.
65:07Yeah. We got a ball. It's strong. Yeah. I mean, we're, we, we, we've got some fun.
65:12And then if, if, if there's a couple of nice hits in the thirds there, like, like a Caleb Douglas or something or Cyrus our force.
65:20And that, you know, I think that makes this even a little bit better, which it seems like we're going to get
65:27one or two nice little late round hits out of this.
65:30Caleb Douglas, 15, four. So last round of the smock love the tray.
65:34Hoodie. You guys, you mentioned him earlier. I like, I like those shots at the last four shots and really, and really, Oh, sorry.
65:41I thought it was up there. Sorry. My bad.
65:44No, it's all good. I'm running it by myself.
65:47So no, I mean, here we go. Yeah. I'll sit in the 12th.
65:51Trey was 14, nine. And then you close it out with Caleb Douglas, 15, four.
65:56But this, you know, I don't know that I love the Mark Andrews.
66:00There could be awesome. Um, but the sharbs, Dulsich, Trey Harris, Willis, Caleb Douglas, like maybe none of those guys at the bottom or anything.
66:07And you churn them, but for sure. They're all, they're all really fun shots.
66:12Like Trey Harris, is making plays. Well, that's the point.
66:15That's what you're supposed to do at the end of the draft.
66:18When you have a draft where you can go churn them and do waivers, you take absolute swings for defenses in the last two, three rounds.
66:26So, cause you can swap them out for medium guys when you need to after week two.
66:32And you got two guys that are hurt. You're like, all right, this guy's took a swing on.
66:37He ain't doing nothing. I could churn them. Yeah.
66:40And then he goes off as soon as you turn.
66:43Of course, every time the tail is all this time.
66:46I just want to cause, I just want to cause myself the most pain imaginable.
66:51Okay. All right. I got a couple of trades here or I got a couple of questions.
66:56There's one in the thing. And then one in one in the chat here and one in the, on the website here.
67:03So on the website, he asks, I have worthy and I'm high on Cyrus Allen.
67:07And is it dumb to trade one of my 27 seconds for.
67:11So for seven second for Cyrus Allen seems steep.
67:14It sounds exactly. This is exactly what I was talking about with post nut clarity.
67:18Do not do that right now, please, please. If you're getting a 27 second for Cyrus Allen, I, the process says do that all day long.
67:26We did this with last year with, with, with bill cross key merit, you're picking them up off waivers.
67:32Then he gets a little bit of camp hype.
67:35Then all of a sudden people are sending seconds for him.
67:38Got to cash out at that point. Cause it's not a loss, but I can't.
67:43And I mean, I'm sure that you guys agree with me.
67:47I can't in good conscience, send a second for Joe, for, for Cyrus Allen.
67:51Allen is Justin Ross two point. No, they're completely different players, but I appreciate that sentiment.
67:56Also don't really put a name on that. Justin Ross guy.
67:59The, you know, two months ago, I was getting Cyrus Allen for on waivers after the rookie draft.
68:05And then a month ago, I was getting Cyrus Allen in the fourth round.
68:09And now he's, what did we just get him in the middle of the fourth round, early fourth, something like that.
68:15And we take them into third. We took him at four, four.
68:19Okay. So that was two weeks ago. Two weeks ago, we had to get them in the beginning of the fourth.
68:26And now like you, so everything shifts like base.
68:28That's the last two months, undrafted rookie draft, four rounds waiver wire pickup for big co fourth round draft pick.
68:35Early fourth round draft pick, potentially late third round.
68:37And now he's, you know, running around with the ones all the time.
68:41It's, you know, the way the 27 draft class is being billed, you would think the first four rounds are going to
68:48be all studs in the rookie draft. You know, there's a can't miss 48 picks in rookie draft.
68:54So I probably would take the 27, two and not, I wouldn't send the 27, two for Cyrus out.
68:59Just should probably hang on to that. If that's what you want to do, just give away your 27, three and 28, three.
69:07If you need to, like those two threes don't add up to 27, two.
69:11If you like, if you, if you have to do it, a three and two fours, make it look good.
69:17But just that 27 to, especially if you're not definitely the best team and it's not 12 to 11 or two 12,
69:24you should probably just hang on to it. Yes.
69:27Until he becomes Tyreek Hill and we all wish we'd have bought more, but I mean, that's, that's a, that's a one
69:33in like, you know, a thousand chance and it's probably not going to happen.
69:38And so it's possible, but most likely the odds are you're way better off with your 27 second.
69:43Yeah. And that draft we had Joe Lee at four, two.
69:47Then we came in with Cyrus Allen at four, four traded into that spot, made a trade to get that pick traded
69:53our next year's four and four, nine to move up to four, four.
69:57And then we discussed, sorry, go ahead. Well, we discussed Cyrus Allen versus Joe Lee to begin with.
70:03We were like, well, yes, we had all three of them as the, as the discussion and it's tight end premium.
70:09And we went with, and we've been able to make trades in that league with having extra tight ends that we have traded some.
70:17So now I think we have Laporta in pits and we're only down, we're down to two good tight ends.
70:23And we'd like to have, we've had more and it's helped us get trades done.
70:28So we decided to go with Joe Lee thinking that Cyrus Allen could stay under the radar and we could trade back in.
70:35And we ended up trading back in at four, four had the discussion for Allen versus Caleb Douglas decided to go with Allen just for everything.
70:43We just said about the dolphins, just because the environment with the chiefs is much more likely to be productive for a wide receiver.
70:50I also have a lot of Caleb Douglas. So I was like, yeah, that's a much bigger runway.
70:56You know, there's, there's no Rasheed rice in Miami, but there's also no, there's no nobody in Miami.
71:01There's no anybody in Miami, right? There's nobody. So he's, but you know, so then we ended up traded back in when
71:08Caleb Douglas was on the board at four 11.
71:11No, we had that pick. No, we didn't have four 11.
71:14We traded our next year's four for it. Two of them.
71:17No, the early one. Yeah. We had one sitting in that.
71:21We had two, we traded one away for, for ours away for Cyrus Allen and move up from four nine.
71:27And then we traded our next year's fourth, which is, I think straight up for the four 11 pick basically.
71:33And took Caleb Douglas, something like that. So we got all three.
71:37We got them all. That was a hell of a fourth round.
71:41That's only in tight end. Dreaming Cyrus Allen and Douglas.
71:44I couldn't be any more excited about a fourth round in my life.
71:48Oh, brother. Right. Not having, we had no picks before that.
71:51So we had to sit there and watch the entire draft happen.
71:55We watched the whole draft happen. And then we got three fun stabs in the fourth round.
72:00That's good stuff. Yeah. That's actually a way to make it fun.
72:04All right. Look, I got one more question and then we'll wrap it up.
72:08The question in the chat, right? Yeah. Thoughts, advice, Burroughs, my wide receiver, one chase, wide receiver to London.
72:14London RB one Brown RB two. Gente. I don't know why, why is this all, all weird?
72:19Am I reading this? I don't, I don't, I can't do this right now.
72:23I'm not doing. London's obviously not an RB. Well, I don't know what happened there.
72:28They're all, they're all question. Okay. No, no, no.
72:31Okay. I got it. I got it. I got it.
72:34So, so read the position and then the position is, is the previous to the name.
72:39Yeah. There we go. It's RB one is Brown.
72:42RB two is. We're no, wide receiver. We're done.
72:44we're done. So he's studded out with wide receivers with chase in London, um, Brown and Gente.
72:50So what's the advice? What's, what's the question? Go win a fucking championship.
72:54Big dog. That's the, Oh, false advice. Gotcha. I trade T Higgins.
72:57It's a 10 man PPR redraft league. Yeah. Trade T Higgins, dude.
73:01You have infinite depth. Oh, that's almost the stack.
73:04And it's 10 man. Yeah. Should I trade T Higgins?
73:07Um, not necessarily. You got, you got burrow and chase and that, if burrow is healthy, T Higgins going to work his way into the lineup somehow.
73:15And if not, why not have a starter on the bench waiting on somebody to get else to get hurt?
73:21You know? Yeah. I mean, depending on how, how hot T starts the season, you might be able to get some of the real fun for him.
73:30Well, of course, you know, if I'm starting neighbors, I'm starting T Higgins week one with neighbors on the bench.
73:36All right, man. If neighbors is active week one, that motherfucker is going to my lineup.
73:41You probably are correct, but he could also be a decoy week one.
73:45He ain't going out there being no decoy. He's out there doing what he's doing right now.
73:50He's playing 17 targets. Yeah. Have you seen who neighbors have to catch passes?
73:54It's him and Isaiah likely 17 targets. You're right.
73:57We've won neighbors. Just Isaiah likely baby. Yeah. Yeah.
74:00There's a lot, a lot of hate for so many months.
74:03And now I feel like everybody's coming around. It's not, I'm not, I'm not necessarily saying, you know, I'm just saying generally,
74:10but I mean, I saw his name brought up.
74:13He's like, ah, no, nothing, nothing. Likely. So why?
74:15Terrible quick. I told you, that's what I was saying.
74:19Wide receiver too. I told you, I, I was just, I had to parse through my feelings there and I was just
74:25real, but hurt about him ruining my Theo Johnson.
74:28And, but now, but now if you have enough, uh, let's see, shipping off late 27, first round pick and late 27, second round pick.
74:36He was just saying that he, we did a review for him and Cameron Myers wanted to give a shout out.
74:42Uh, Billy Ray Cyrus team that we reviewed was able to get a deal done, shipping off a late 27, first round
74:49pick and a late 27 second much appreciated for the review.
74:52Appreciate it. Tell us what the deal was. Come on, Cameron Myers.
74:56What did you get for those? We were, we were, we, we did a 30 minute review of his team.
75:02So it was probably a 1 million trades that we.
75:05Yeah. Just send us a little note and just tell us what you got.
75:10Come on. There we go. Now we're talking. This is, this is, this is what I, this is what I need from the audience here.
75:17Yeah. Yeah. I have. If they, if only they didn't hire the terrorists.
75:21No, I know. Yeah. I know. Yeah. They just got a bunch of, they got a bunch of real, real, not fun
75:28coaches for fantasy over there right now. Yeah. Between Brian Callahan as the quarterback's coach.
75:33Goddamn. Matt Nagy as the offensive coordinator and Greg Roman as a special assistant.
75:37Are we all last question? And then we'll wrap up.
75:40Are we all sold on dart? Are we good on this?
75:44Are we, we still jury's out for me? Rushing upside is what gives me enough hope to where, even if it's not,
75:50I mean, there's a lot of people thinking that he's a, you know, they're saying that he's a top five dynasty quarterback already.
75:57And I look like, Whoa, Whoa, Whoa, Whoa, That's high for me.
76:01That's very, look at the, go look at the game log.
76:04And the points scored. And you're like, all right.
76:07Yeah. I'm not, there's no debate there. There's no debate there.
76:11Not a totally different environment than it was. And he was scoring those points in though.
76:16They go. It was a totally different environment. If, if it were the same shit, if he still had day ball and
76:22he still, and they, they were, they were dialing it up.
76:26I would have zero problems with people saying he's a top five quarterback.
76:30I probably wouldn't have him top five, but I'm just saying, but I mean, she says, I mean, yeah.
76:36Well, I mean, Wando left, you bring in Isaiah likely.
76:39Yeah. Theoretically they're trying to get better. I would don't love the, don't love the second and third necessarily the wide receivers.
76:45We can see what the rookie does. Uh, I'm forgetting his name, but he's huge.
76:50Six, four rookie fields. Fields. We'll see what fields can get done.
76:54But like you said, I mean, there's game. As soon as he gets in there, it's like rushing touchdown four or five games in a row.
77:02Yeah. You know, um, yeah. As long as that's going, I think QB two, QB 12, QB five, QB one.
77:08Like, I mean, he was top five. I think he averaged out.
77:12He was top four. I think he was QB four in the games he played, you know?
77:17Yeah. Now, now, now all of this injury poo poo, and you've been doing it, you're just going to act like that's not a risk with him.
77:25Well, that dude spends, that dude spends like almost as much time in the medical tent as Woody Marks and Jalen Waddle.
77:32Yeah. I mean, he's got to dial it back.
77:35He's not going to, he's not going to. Well, he's got a couple of quotes here.
77:40Very recently. It says, I, I need to know when to get out of bounds and I need to slide and this and that.
77:47Like, you know, the third and one is third and third and one is different than second and, you know, second and 10 or whatever.
77:55Like, you know, just like, don't, if you don't need an extra yard, you don't need an extra yard.
78:01If he's, if it's fourth and inches, he's going for it.
78:04If it's second and 10, like, just do what you got to do, man.
78:08I think, I think for me, I think he's redraft.
78:11It's a huge upswing. It could be awesome. Like you said, he's running around and scoring touchdowns.
78:17I think that's all going to be good. I'm just not sure if he's actually a good quarterback or not yet.
78:23That's my, that's my, that's my thing. Like, you know, that was cool.
78:27But like, it wasn't playing like awesome quarterback. It was, it was a lot of backyard football, which is fine.
78:33Like, but you have to, you have to graduate.
78:36Right. I got it. You got to take that.
78:39He, he got no time with neighbors. So like, it's any, he got, he's got Theo Johnson out there is in Wondale
78:46Robinson is, this is not his fault. No, I'm just saying like, you know, you're a rookie quarterback.
78:51You haven't seen your rookie quarterback coming from a friendly system.
78:54And that's what I didn't want him. You know, I take it.
78:58I said a lot about, Hey, don't even let him play right now.
79:02He's the hope he came in and he was amazing.
79:05He was way better than anybody could have ever hoped other than probably himself.
79:10Like he was, but like, yeah, he didn't even have, he didn't even have that defense check.
79:15He didn't have neighbors to skew the defense. His legs had to skew the defense.
79:19And the fact that they had to watch out for him running, you know, had to open up some lanes for him to make some passes.
79:27If neighbors is healthy out there and you got a physical, you know, unicorn type, big, fast, Isaiah likely would hands the size of, you know, it basketballs.
79:36I think, I think he, I think he'll be all right.
79:39I mean, you're probably, you're probably right. You're probably right.
79:42But I've never seen likely drop a pass. If it gets close, if it's in the same vicinity, it just gets right there.
79:50You're right. But the problem, the problem is the problem is like, he has to play good quarterback.
79:55And if they're in like meaningful games where it's not garbage time and he's, that is the shelf life that can get real short.
80:03If he's not playing real good quarterback in real life, like there's a world where there's a world where he is just albino, Justin Fields.
80:10Well, but there's also a world where I don't want to put the, you know, the guy who had the monopoly on
80:17the one, one for four years, but his rookie season, he looked, he's way better than Josh Allen.
80:23Rookie to rookie. As far as like what it looked like on the NFL field.
80:27Like it's even when pressure, I mean, yeah, not maybe not just like the physical talent of running the ball, like Josh
80:34Allen being bigger and stronger and faster, but like when there was chaos, completely not just ridiculous turnovers and create like his,
80:41even his accuracy, like just, I think what we saw, he looked better as a rookie than Josh Allen.
80:47If he's never better than 75% of poor man, Josh Allen right now, that wouldn't surprise anybody.
80:52I'm not, I hesitate to bring that name out, but it's like, if you say, if you say this, it's not, it's
80:59not, the jury's not out that he can't become Justin Fields.
81:02The jury's not out that he can't become Josh Allen either.
81:05That's not what I was saying. That's not what I was saying.
81:09I just, I'm just saying what, what, what the point that I was trying, the point that I was trying to make
81:16is it, can it, he can get there for fantasy and well, damn, I guess he didn't like what I was about to say.
81:23I'm coming back. I'm coming back. It can get there for fantasy.
81:27And if it's not getting there as a, as a real quarterback, the leash is going to get short real fast.
81:33He's, he's a culture fit, which I think is huge for everything that they're trying to do over there.
81:39I think what, like he's a good brand of quarterback for, for Harbaugh.
81:43Right. That, I think that's really important. It's just Kenny, my, I just want to know if he can run an offense consistently.
81:50Like that's all I want to know. And we're going to get those answers.
81:55I think pretty quick. Well, I think they're loaded.
81:57And maybe, maybe he's so athletic. And if he could stay sliding around and, and causing so much problems, especially early on
82:04with his feet, maybe he doesn't have to. And that, and, and, and I'm not saying that that's okay too.
82:10And I'm, I'm not sure either way quite yet though.
82:13It's kind of why I just like, I'm taking Brock Purdy all day long over Jackson dark.
82:19Easily in, in dynasty. Easily. I could be, I could be on the fence there.
82:23You see, Casey said, I'm probably way low on dark.
82:26Casey said, Casey said, Casey said, I want to see if he can run an offense and I, his running is going
82:33to run the offense and make, if he can stay healthy, the running is going to run the office.
82:39The only thing he needs to do is do what he didn't do already is if he's, if he's throwing pick sixes
82:46and he's throwing ugly interceptions, that'll get you booed out of the stadium.
82:50But like, as long as you don't do that, I mean, Eli Manning could hang through some, you know, some booze for a while.
82:57And he's, he, he made it in New York, throwing some ugly interceptions here and there.
83:02But like, I feel like the, the physicality is don't let him get over his head.
83:07Don't let him get over his, like just slide a little bit, get out of bounds.
83:12Don't take on that linebacker when you're close to the sidelines.
83:15Anyway, watch Patrick, my homes on film, know how to get out of bounds and, you know, stay healthy.
83:21And I think he'll be, I think it'd be all right.
83:25Yeah. It looks like in like in a, in a startup or these are crowdsource ranks, about 12 spots in between dart and purdy.
83:32Honestly, thought it would be a little bit farther.
83:35So I did. I did. It's just, yeah, I think Malik, I think not Malik, Brock party is one of the most undervalued quarterbacks.
83:42See? Yeah. That's just, yeah. I like it. All right.
83:45I'm, I'm, let's wrap it up tonight. We'll see you guys next Wednesday.
83:49I, you guys want to, uh, should we do like a, should we do a $20 live best ball draft for like with everybody on a sleeper league?
83:58Yes. Yeah. Yeah. We got the sleeper league. Oh, live on, on air.
84:02All right. Live on air. Yeah. Yeah. Live on air.
84:05I was about to say, we got them coming up, but we can start a new one.
84:10If you're in the discord, we'll hit us up and, uh, we're going to throw 12 together and, and get 20 bucks
84:17a piece and, and draft a best ball. And, uh, on sleeper next week.
84:21Let's do it. We only need nine, right? Cause all three of us are in.
84:26I mean, I'm playing. I'm in. I'm yeah, I'm for sure.
84:29We don't, we need one tripod team. We want all separate teams.
84:33No, no. All separate teams. Yeah. All separate teams.
84:36All separate teams. You think we need one more?
84:38We're just going to be talking the whole time.
84:41We need, we need one more. We need one more.
84:44We might need a couple. Well, I said he'll come next Wednesday.
84:48That's eight. We need eight more. All right. Come on.
84:51Come on with it. We'll see you next week.
