0:03Clothing. And oh, is this one worth it? You know, more than a few people have asked me about Troll Co.
0:10So let me actually tell you about it. I wear their hats, their sweatshirts.
0:14I have for a while now. The quality on both is legitimately good.
0:19The hats hold their shape. The sweatshirts are the kind of heavy that you actually want, not the thin stuff that pills after three washes.
0:27I just like them. The reason I connected with the brand in the first place is the story behind it.
0:33You know the phrase, dirty hands clean money? It's a blue collar saying that has been around forever.
0:39It's the idea that honest, hard, physical work is how you build a good life.
0:44Troll Co. was started by two guys who came out of the oil patch who could not find any clothing that represented people like them.
0:52So they built it themselves. That is the kind of origin story I respect.

1:36The quarterback landscape has shifted this offseason. In 2026, less quarterbacks are being drafted at the top of the board in fantasy football drafts.
1:43Today, Jeremiah and myself are going to go over four quarterbacks being drafted rounds 7 to 10 that we think you should
1:51be targeting in fantasy football right here on Player Profiler.
1:54What is going on, folks? This year, only one quarterback going inside the top 36.
1:59It is Josh Allen. You had a lot of quarterbacks, Jeremiah, Joe Burrow, Lamar Jackson, Jayden Daniels.
2:04You know, these are all guys that were drafted high last year that missed time and were not inside the top five
2:11when it comes to points for fantasy football. So, you know, people have kind of adjusted their strategy, their process.
2:18You seem to be, and myself as well, two guys that are not drafting quarterbacks high because we do see a lot of value.
2:26So, who's the number one quarterback for you that you feel like is at a really good price that you're looking to
2:33draft if you're not taking one of those elite quarterbacks?
2:36Well, it's funny. The barbell strategy with tight end where you go early or late with quarterback is compressing to the middle, Pete.
2:44And one of those quarterbacks for me is Patrick Mahomes in the Dynasty Streets.
2:48He'll be a back end QB1 to early QB2.
2:51In NFFC, as we're approaching redraft, Pete, single quarterback round eight.
2:55Patrick Mahomes, he sounds like he should be chalked, but he's getting disrespected price-wise.
2:59Not quite in the elite tier of quarterbacks. Seven seasons with 4,000 passing yards.
3:04Two where Mahomes hit 5K. He was below his career low, had been 3,928 passing yards.
3:09Last year he had 3,528, which was a low, but that's because he missed three games.
3:14You get another three games for Patrick Mahomes and we're adding another tally to his 4,000 passing yard seasons.
3:21Six rushing seasons of 300 rushing yards for Patrick Mahomes.
3:24He's only missed five games due to injury. He's been throwing at the OTAs all in the offseason.
3:30He tours ACL at the end of 2025. The two players that come to mind, Joe Burrow, Tom Brady for recovery.
3:37It's something that can happen. And with Burrow and Brady, those are two players that you have to drag off the field.
3:44That mentality applies to Patrick Mahomes. I expect him to be out there.
3:48Week 1 versus your Denver Broncos. And it's just an advantageous opportunity being reunited with Eric Biennemi.
3:54I think that's not being discussed enough. And whatever we feel about the cast of characters and the depth of fantasy players
4:01beyond Travis Kelsey, Rashi Rice, Kenneth Walker, we don't think there's much depth with the Chiefs.
4:06This still is Andy Reid, Eric Biennemi, and Patrick Mahomes utilizing this.
4:10So I think he's one of those better options as you get past the early elite players.
4:15Like if you miss on a Josh Allen, you can go and get a Patrick Mahomes.
4:21So both in the dynasty and the redraft streets, that's what I'm seeing, Pete.
4:25What do you think of that? Yeah. Yeah. Kansas City, this is an interesting team.
4:30I have them at a 55% pass rate, which is lower than what they've seen, what we've seen over the last few years.
4:38And I think a big part of that is you mentioned, Eric Biennemi's back.
4:42They did bring in Kenneth Walker. I do think they're going to want to run the football more than what we saw in years prior.
4:50I do think we see more efficiency. I do think the volume comes down though, right?
4:56We're not going to see as many passes. I don't think, you know, I think it's a combination of the injury plus,
5:03you know, the more balanced attack than years past, I think will mean Mahomes' rushing numbers come down a little bit, as
5:10well as his amount of passes that he throws and the volume comes down as well.
5:15You know, I have this team projected, you know, sitting at, let's see, a total of 42 offensive touchdowns this year, which
5:22places them kind of like middle of the package, like creeping up on top 12, but not there.
5:28I think that's pretty fair, pretty reasonable. I have them for 16 rushing touchdowns though, too.
5:33I have Mahomes throwing for 28 touchdowns this year.
5:36I do think he's going to be back week one, just like you said.
5:41I have Mahomes projected at 18 fantasy points per game.
5:44That kind of brings him into that low quarterback one area, but possibly getting close to that mid QB one area as well.
5:52With Mahomes, we know that the ability is there to pop off, right?
5:56He was great last year when you look at his stats, 21.2 fantasy points per game, right?
6:01He was on a tear to have pretty much one of his best seasons in fantasy football that he's had in a few years.
6:09So that was encouraging to see. But my concern and curiosity is another year, Travis Kelsey getting older.
6:15Xavier Worthy still has not really shown what he can do, or I guess has shown us what he can do.
6:22And it's not what it was expected to be.
6:25Then you have Rashi Rice who coming off that injury, spent time in jail because he come out rusty.
6:31It just really didn't add much to this room.
6:34Now you do have Cyrus Allen, who has become somewhat of a target that people have talked about this year.
6:41He's kind of interesting. I just worry that they didn't add enough to this room, Jeremiah.
6:46And they also added to the run game, right?
6:49With Eric B. Enemi coming back and Walker. So I don't have him projected like, hey, he has QB one upside.
6:56But I do think top five is possible. You know, and at his 18 points per game, you know, that's kind of
7:03a, you know, you know that there's also wiggle room for that to get close to that 20 points per game.
7:10And if he gets there, you're talking top five quarterback status.
7:13So that's where I have my homes. Do you have any pushback on any of that?
7:18Or is that kind of similar to how you see the situation for him as well?
7:24Well, it's agreeable and accurate to his ADP with being the QB 14 off the board in single quarterback formats.
7:30You're getting that price for paying that price with the projections that you laid out.
7:35And you astutely pointed out that Kenneth Walker is going to demand.
7:39So if we see more of the vessel of this offense through the run game, we will see some regression.
7:45But I'm betting on one of the all-time great quarterbacks in Patrick Mahomes coming back and not just picking up where he left off with Eric the enemy.
7:55I see a dead cat bounce season for Travis Kelsey.
7:58The one spot where it is very lean is the receiving positions, the depth scaffolded.
8:03You mentioned Cyrus Allen. That is not enough. And maybe we'll see.
8:07There was interest in A.J. Brown. Maybe it could be a Stefan Diggs.
8:11But they have not done enough to give more talent to Patrick Mahomes, which is kind of funny because we've always talked about it for Josh Allen.
8:20And no one's going to cry for Patrick Mahomes not having enough support around him.
8:25But I do think there's a degree of resting on their laurels where the Chiefs could have done a lot more to acquire.
8:32So I agree and understand the sentiment on the pushback there.
8:36But based on the price at QB 14, I think you're going to get value back with Patrick Mahomes.
8:42Now, Pete, who's your first quarterback that you're trying to eye at value?
8:46Yeah, for me, it's Trevor Lawrence. And I've talked about Trevor Lawrence and his Jaguars offense a good amount.
8:52And there's some concern with the offense, right? I mean, people are hesitant on who to draft, who's worth their price with the wide receivers, the running backs.
9:01And one thing I can say that I feel extremely confident about is Trevor Lawrence, right?
9:07I mean, you know, you can push back and argue about which wide receiver to take.
9:12Is Bachel Tutank ranked? Is he going high enough?
9:15Is Brenton Strange going, you know, too low? But one thing I can say is year two in Liam Cohen's offense, we
9:22saw the best version of Trevor Lawrence that we've ever seen when he's gotten to the NFL.
9:28Just look at some of his stats last year.
9:31560 pass attempts, 4,000 yards, 29 passing touchdowns, 9 rushing touchdowns, 20.6 fantasy points per game.
9:36It was the best fantasy season that we've seen, best NFL season we've seen.
9:40And I expect year two in this offense for him to be even better.
9:45When I just look at, you know, my projections so far for this offense for Jacksonville, I have been projected for 43.4
9:52total offensive touchdowns, which is more than Kansas City, 29 passing touchdowns for Trevor Lawrence, 14.2 total rushing touchdowns for the entire offense.
10:00And when I look at Trevor Lawrence and I look at some of his numbers, right, last year he ran for nine touchdowns.
10:07I don't have him running in nine touchdowns again.
10:10I have him at three touchdowns rushing. Could absolutely see if someone wants to make the argument and say, hey, it should be closer to five.
10:18Let's meet in the middle since he had nine last year.
10:22But I put him at three. I think Chris Rodriguez, Bashal Tootin, those guys are good enough down at the red zone
10:29that they will get looks down there. And I don't know that Liam Cohen's going to want to – I think he's
10:36going to look back at the season and say, okay, I know who I have.
10:41I know what I've got with Trevor Lawrence now.
10:44You know, we had a season in my offense.
10:47Let's kind of pull back a little bit on that rushing inside the red zone.
10:52So I still think the rushing is going to be there, though, for Trevor Lawrence.
10:57I have him at 325 rushing yards on the year.
11:00And, Jeremiah, I have met 69 rushing attempts this year, which brings him close to four and a half rushing attempts a
11:07game, which I think is pretty solid. That's kind of what you want for a guy that's like not that Jaden Daniels,
11:15Lamar Jackson, but he's rushing four, maybe five times a game and giving you a floor of an extra point or two
11:22just off of the rushing upside alone. And when you look at him, I have him projected at 18.5 fantasy points per game.
11:29He's going off the board at 86 right now.
11:32He's the most expensive guy that we're going to talk about today.
11:36But even at 86, I mean, this is a quarterback when you looked at him last year, 20.6 fantasy points per game.
11:43That was top five in the NFL for fantasy football.
11:47And so I definitely see the possibility of the ceiling being there for Trevor Lawrence.
11:51It's an offense that plays in a division that has two teams that play in domes as well as Tennessee Titans who play in good weather.
12:00And then you have the Jacksonville Jaguars, which outside of the mugginess, the swampiness of that area, it's pretty warm year round
12:07there, at least for the NFL season. So I'm excited for Trevor Lawrence.
12:11I think he's on track to continue and build off what he did last year.
12:16Again, 18.5. I have him ahead of Mahomes in my projections.
12:20I just think the weapons are there. The setup is there for Lawrence to build on what he did last year.
12:27Well, hopefully, Pete, we can get him beyond just the four, four and a half carries per game and into the five and six carry range.
12:35Funny enough, when I look at Tyler Shuck, who, you know, teaser I'll talk about a little bit later, with three rushes
12:42per game, my mentality and thought was, can Tyler Shuck go up to five and six?
12:48Can he double that, essentially? And we've already seen the trend where Trevor Lawrence kind of follows that.
12:53If Shuck can follow that rushing output for Trevor Lawrence, that'll be an ascension that we like.
12:59Back to your point, though, being one of the most expensive.
13:03QB 9 right now, somewhat of a back end QB 1, especially if he falls in drafts.
13:08But that's over at NFFC in round six for Trevor Lawrence.
13:12Something to note, 260 vacated carries last year for the Jaguars and 126 vacated targets.
13:17So I'm very curious, Pete, if you see the vacated carries flowing over to the pass game.
13:22And one note and bookmark that question while I break off.
13:26We've been talking about Parker Washington ascending. But I do wonder, and I am curious, if having Brenton Strange is going to
13:33be a lot more middle of the field open for Trevor Lawrence, where those carries that are vacated become a lot more passes in 2026.
13:41Last six games, 10 red zone targets. So we're talking about touchdown equity for Strange.
13:46Six in yards per target. 19 yards per reception at 11.7 was Strange.
13:5018 yards per route run at 1.81. This is like a very discounted version of Tucker Craft and Colson Loveland that I think has been buried.
13:59So curious, Pete, what's your thoughts on that ascension for the diversion of, hey, we've lost Travis Etienne, Ron and Chris Rodriguez.
14:06You see the passing game ascending a little bit more in that benefiting, of course, fantasy points wise, Trevor Lawrence.
14:12Yeah, it's a good question. I mean, pass attempts wise, he averaged 32.9 per game last year.
14:18I have him set for 32 again this year.
14:21He's actually six in the NFL for total pass attempts.
14:24That's not pass attempts per game, though. That's just overall total passing attempts.
14:28I could see it going up a little bit for him.
14:32The one thing I'm curious to see is the play action rate.
14:3628th in the NFL last year for Trevor Lawrence.
14:39Do they try to, you know, maybe establish to run even more, which is kind of the flip side of what you're saying.
14:46But it also equals out to being more efficiency because of that play action.
14:51And honestly, sometimes they've even said like play action teams that don't even aren't even good at running the football.
14:57Play action still, you know, provides a boost to the offense, even for teams that are not that great at running the football.
15:05So I'd like to see that this year. But yeah, I mean, it's definitely a good question to ask.
15:11I think we stay pretty much similar to what we saw last year.
15:1532 games is pretty decent. It's pretty fair. I could see it maybe going up a little bit or down a little
15:22bit, but not enough to really swing my thoughts on him or swing my projection or points per game difference for him.
15:30Let's go ahead and move over to your next quarterback, your final quarterback.
15:34And it's going to be Tyler Shuck. Tyler Shuck of the Saints rookie last year coming in.
15:39Why do you have Tyler Shuck here? He's ADP is 126 on NFC.
15:44He's the lowest guy that we're going to talk about today.
15:47Yeah, going off as QB 18 P is Tyler Shuck.
15:51So I went with a chalk player and a not so chalk player, somebody who I see rising and ascending.
15:57It's a mid-level price QB two over on NFFC, especially if you've developed your whole team and you're pushing quarterback down.
16:04And hey, I miss Trevor Lawrence. I miss Brock Purdy.
16:07I miss Patrick Mahomes. There is a firewall ability with somebody like Tyler Shuck.
16:12From offensive perspective, Spencer Rattler and Chris Alave, a plus 63 EPA for show versus a mere plus 2.8 EPA for Rattler involving the Saints offense.
16:20So this is great for Chris Alave. It's great for middle of the field open Jordan Tyson.
16:26Coaches are talking about the utility that Jordan Tyson offers over the middle of the field for Tyler Shuck.
16:32So when we start to see intermediate, short and deep passes being somewhat of a strength for Tyler Shuck, I think that's
16:39just going to be layered to the effect of the talent that surrounds him.
16:44Kind of like Bo Nix is buoyed up by Sean Payton's system and the talent that surrounded Bo Nix has helped Bo Nix.
16:51I see that affording because it's not like Tyler Shuck was some elite prospect.
16:56I think the scaffolding, the environment for Tyler Shuck is also what helps him.
17:00You're bringing in, just as we talked about Trevor Lawrence, you're bringing in Travis Etienne in addition.
17:06Okay. You're able to get Bryce Lance in round four.
17:09Not enough people are talking about the speed that's there.
17:12So there's plenty of forwarded Oscar Delt, more two tight end looks with Juwan Johnson.
17:17I'm very excited about Tyler Shuck. He had a 103 passer rating on third downs, 67% accuracy.
17:23So God knows who gets busted for completion percentage all the time and is one of the top elite quarterbacks in the
17:30NFL that we're all projecting in fantasy. Caleb Williams.
17:33Tyler Shuck doesn't have that problem. Ten full games played last year.
17:37I know it says 11, but real significant snap share.
17:40Five games out of 10, a QB1 in fantasy football.
17:43You had seen on the graphic 14.9 fancy points per game.
17:47I think that's going to go into the higher teams.
17:50And the neat thing, 238 passing yards per game last year.
17:54Extrabulate 10 to 17. Again, this is projecting help.
17:57You have yourself a sneaky Pete 4,000 yard passing season by Tyler Shuck.
18:01And three touchdowns, rushing, can that double in the 17 game sample?
18:05Can we get four games, as I mentioned before, to turn into six?
18:09Four carries a game to six. Get those rushing numbers up.
18:1318.6 rushing yards per game. Again, extrapolate that out to 17 and it's 316 rushing yards.
18:18So the path and the layout is there, both by the surrounding talent.
18:22And the beauty is you're paying quarterback 18 price in a single quarterback league.
18:27And in these high stakes or in your redraft, you get Chris Alave.
18:31What a stacking pairing partner with Tyler Shuck. And not to mention Jordan Tyson, who everything about his hamstring, going back, it
18:38was like scheduled load management maintenance when he was sitting out in mini camps.
18:43And it's come out that he's fully healthy right now.
18:46You're not going to want to miss out on Jordan Tyson, this entire Saints offense.
18:51That includes, topical to what we're talking about, Pete, Tyler Shuck.
18:55Yeah, and Tyler Shuck is an interesting one. When you just look at their projections on the season, this is an offense that is affordable, right?
19:03I think that's the best way to put it in some way, shape, or form, right?
19:08You have Chris Alave is the most expensive piece in the offense.
19:12I think he's worth his cost. Then you have Travis Etienne, who's starting to kind of dip a little bit in price
19:19because the Kamara news that he's staying, which I think most people that were plugged into that situation knew he was going to stay.
19:27So I'm surprised the market has reacted as much as it has to Etienne's price dropping because of it.
19:33Then you have Jordan Tyson. And then you have Tyler Shuck, right?
19:37Shuck's the fourth most expensive player in this offense.
19:40And he goes well beyond pick 100 at pick 126.
19:43This is a fair price for a guy that we think is in an offense that can ascend, right?
19:50I think, of course, there's some concern where maybe sophomore slump and maybe it was just a flash in the pan for
19:57Shuck last year where he came in and looked really good and people were surprised.
20:02But it doesn't seem like the Saints were that surprised, right?
20:05They took him pretty decently high in the draft and then they kind of doubled down by supporting him by bringing in
20:12Travis Etienne, by bringing in Bryce Lance, by bringing in Jordan Tyson, Oscar Delprey, all these weapons to pretty much say, hey,
20:20we trust and we believe in this guy and we want to give him every opportunity to succeed before we decide, hey,
20:27maybe next year they go out and they draft a quarterback if things kind of fall off this year.
20:33So I think the risk is definitely worth the reward with the rushing upside, with the legs, playing in a division that doesn't have very good defenses.
20:42You have the Buccaneers, you have the Panthers, you know, you have the Falcons.
20:46Falcons defense is going to be better this year.
20:49I think Saints defense is going to be better.
20:52Bucs defense is kind of trending up a little bit and so are the Panthers, but these are still defenses that I
20:59don't expect any of them to be in the top 10.
21:03A lot of dome games, good weather. So all that to say that this is an offense that is definitely one of
21:10the lower tier offenses when you just factor in what their total output for the season is going to be.
21:17I have met 37.1 fantasy total offense touchdowns. I have Shuck throwing just 22 touchdowns, but the rushing upside is there.
21:24It can kind of make up for the lack of touchdowns and we have seen him use his legs.
21:30So I expect to see that again going forward this season.
21:33So yeah, I think at this price, at this cost, I like Shuck.
21:38I prefer some guys a little bit ahead of him.
21:41I'd rather just probably pay a little bit more of an expensive cost for like a Mahomes because we know that the floor is going to be safe.
21:50And while the ceiling and the weapons aren't nearly what we want them to be, we also know Mahomes can maybe pull
21:57a rabbit out of his hat and still kind of make lemonade with limes.
22:02Chicken salad, add a chicken, you know what. Yeah, yeah, exactly.
22:05Well, how about the names that you were talking about, Bo Nix, Baker Mayfield, Jared Goff, would you take those three quarterbacks over Tyler Shuck?
22:13I would. I would. Now, it's all relative to what's on the board though, right?
22:18I mean, in some situations you might be sitting there and say, man, you know, I need one of these, like Rashad
22:26White sitting there at his ADP in the early hundreds and you need running back help and you like him this year.
22:33And maybe you say, you know what, I'm going to take him.
22:37I don't think Shuck is going to be that far off from maybe these other guys.
22:42So that could be the angle that you take.
22:45I still probably prefer Bo Nix and Baker Mayfield just because I like the weapons in the offense more.
22:51I also just like the team better, the situation better.
22:54Bo Nix with best offensive line in football with Sean Payton just getting Waddle.
22:59Baker, we saw him have a great season and then obviously he hurt himself.
23:03So this is all not to poo-poo on Tyler Shock.
23:07I think if you are taking, you know, I think it's more to just highlight the fact that you can wait this
23:14late on a quarterback and still get really, really nice value.
23:17I just would maybe prefer, you know, those guys going around him.
23:21Even Jared Goff, who's been a quarterback one, but nobody wants to touch him and has a phenomenal schedule this year.
23:28Hey, say Jared Goff 10 times very fast. With Tyler Shuck, it's still wish casting at this point.
23:34As much as I love him, there is a degree.
23:37We have to admit in fantasy football, there's players that we like and love, be it Christian Watson.
23:43We're still wish casting that he's going to be healthy for an entire season.
23:48We know what he can do within an entire season.
23:51So with Tyler Shuck, we are projecting. And to your point with those players, we've proven and there's better infrastructure from a
23:58coaching lens, although it's catching up New Orleans to Denver.
24:01But as you mentioned, Jalen Waddle, the hype and excitement is all there.
24:06And then Baker Mayfield, what's not to love about, hey, Mike Evans is gone, but guess what?
24:11You got Jalen McMillan and we're going to go out and draft Ted Hurst.
24:16We're going to invest in the receiver position. Of course, you had the round one investment in the Mecca of Bucca last year.
24:23So they're fine to circle the wagons, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, to keep resupplying a good offensive environment.
24:29Ironically, the Buccaneers, Saints are in the same division.
24:32So yeah, that's Tyler Shuck there. But tell us, Pete, Brock Purdy, why should drafters come away with him?
24:38What's his value? What do you love about him?
24:41Yeah. And keeping in mind, right, like this is a show where, yeah, we're going to have some disagreements, right?
24:48I mean, we have the ability to choose any of these guys, right?
24:52And you jumped on the opportunity to draft Shuck, right?
24:55And you jumped on it with Mahomes. We actually didn't even argue too much, which tells us that we see some things a little bit different here, right?
25:04Purdy and Mahomes are probably the closest comps because Purdy is at an ADP of 101 right now, while Mahomes sits at 109.
25:12You look at some of what he did last year, 208 pass attempts, 2,167 passing yards, 20 passing touchdowns, three rushing touchdowns, 20.8 fantasy points per game.
25:21I want to get into it, but I do need to take a quick pause because we don't want to miss out that.

26:57So as we were talking about Brock Purdy, you know, going off the board of ADP 101, Purdy is interesting because as
27:04I'm sitting here, I'm looking at my points per game projection for Purdy.
27:08I actually have Purdy projected at 19 points per game, which would actually be the highest projection I have for all these quarterbacks.
27:16Even Trevor Lawrence, who I talked about how he is my favorite quarterback out of all these guys that we talked about today.
27:23The points per game is not always going to, you know, from a projection standpoint.
27:28It also doesn't always bake in what the ceiling is.
27:31And I do think Trevor Lawrence has a higher ceiling than Purdy, but Purdy still has a good ceiling, right?
27:3820.8 fantasy points per game. You look at Lawrence, 20.6 fantasy points per game.
27:42So we saw the ceilings for both of these guys somewhat last year.
27:47I just think with Lawrence, we haven't seen him in a second year in this offense where with Purdy, we have seen,
27:54we know what to expect in this offense. Mike Evans is coming too.
27:58So that adds a little bit more ceiling there, but we don't know what kills.
28:03So there's some, there's some things there, some question marks, obviously in both sides, both rooms.
28:08But when I talk about Purdy, I look at him.
28:11I haven't projected for 28 passing touchdowns this year.
28:14I expect this offense to still be very good.
28:174,662 passing yards is what I have Purdy projected this year, which honestly is, is going to be up there with, with the highest in the NFL.
28:26I don't think that's that far out of the question.
28:29I do have him projected at 15 interceptions. So there's a possibility that, you know, that he doesn't throw that many and,
28:36and that points per game can go even a little bit higher, but I have him for 8.4 yards per passing attempt.
28:44I am throwing 30 times per game. I'm running a decent amount here, Jeremiah 58.8 times.
28:49So total of 263 rushing attempts. I haven't going into the end zone two times this season, but looking at this offense, Mike Evans coming in.
28:57I'm excited about it. I think arguably the receivers this year, the offense this year, Jeremiah, I mean, it's better than it was probably last year.
29:06If Ricky Pearsall can stay healthy, which is a big if, right?
29:10If George Kittle can come back. And I think the thing with Kittle too, Jeremiah, is he doesn't have to be the receiver.
29:17He can be a dominant blocker while he kind of works his way back.
29:22Um, and still be very effective for this offense.
29:25Um, and then obviously you have McCaffrey, but, uh, you also have Christian Kirk.
29:29You have Stribbling who some are saying best wide receiver in this draft class.
29:34I don't necessarily know about that one, but, um, I'm excited for Brock Purdy.
29:38I'm excited for the offense. Um, we know what to expect with this offense.
29:43It feels like a very safe pick. And Purdy is very Jared Gauth-esque, uh, Jeremiah, not a sexy player, not a hot pick.
29:50No one's like dying to go get this guy because the rushing upside doesn't feel like it's there, but he's just a
29:58guy that consistently does it when he's healthy and he's got, got his weapons around him.
30:03So, um, yeah, I think Purdy is a phenomenal pick right now at his ADP of 101.
30:08Well, Brock Purdy perpetually priced in dynasty and in the redraft streets at QB 13, NFFC QB 13, just ahead of Patrick Mahomes, who was QB 14.
30:17Round seven ADP for Brock Purdy. You'd love to see it for him.
30:21And the thing about the 49ers, they're old, they're fragile.
30:25Our signature trend on our draft kit, the average age of the starting skill position players for the 49ers when the season
30:32kicks off is going to be 30. You mentioned it.
30:35Mike Evans comes to town. We've got an older Christian McCaffrey, but they're still hoopers and they're still ballers.
30:41And depending on the week, it's week one, five, 10.
30:45You just put yourself on your couch, cracking a beer, watching the game.
30:49If Mike Evans is lacing him up, Christian McCaffrey is lacing them up.
30:53Nobody's accounting for, Oh, you know what? Hey man, you, since you're 31 years of age, it's not going to work out on this route.
31:01No, it's going to be Mike Evans and Christian McCaffrey domination.
31:05You have a little bit of influx underneath with Christian Kirk, even though that doesn't move the needle.
31:11I think it just gives some depth layered to this 49ers offense.
31:15They attack stripping in round two, whether they should or shouldn't have.
31:19It's another seat in the chair that they have for them.
31:22You mentioned Ricky Pearsall, a huge wild card and all this.
31:26We know Brandon and I use days are over.
31:29So you really do hope opposite Mike Evans, Ricky Pearsall can really put it together.
31:34Kalen black goes in round three. He'll be irrelevant.
31:37Everyone. Jordan James will be irrelevant, shy of getting out of the way Christian McCaffrey from something like an injury.
31:43I love Brock Purdy. I think he's a great pick for you and Kyle Shanahan, the way they designed this offense, everything
31:50is lining up correctly for the 49ers. George Kittle.
31:53Yes. Do you want to call him George brittle?
31:56Cause he's hurt often. He can get back on the field.
32:00He's always been fancy points per game. You know, you mentioned maybe needing more blocking, but Pete.
32:05From rank two to six at tight end and fancy points per game perpetually year in, year out when he's healthy, George
32:12Kittle, just a great value play right now. So I like where your head's at a little bit of a discount because
32:20of the fact that you can get these players a little bit cheaper.
32:24Granted, Christian McCaffrey is a round one pick, but the rest of the different spots, all very affordable in both dynasty and in redraft.
32:32So great picks today, Pete. I really like how you have Trevor Lawrence, Brock Purdy, Patrick Mahomes for me and Tyler Shuck.
32:39The cool theme is it's that compressing and we're not paying through the nose on these players.
32:44We can still build the scaffold of our teams.
32:47And then you have optionality. You had mentioned it.
32:50Hey, depending on maybe you need Rashad White here, you wait and then get a quarterback later.
32:56Well, part of it might be you have Christian McCaffrey and you want to pair him with Brock Purdy.
33:02You have a Rashi Rice and you want to go get Mahomes.
33:06You built and clicked on Olave or Tyson and you go and get Tyler Shuck.
33:11All those things can factor and play into the bills that you have.
33:15And Pete, I gotta say, these are four good quarterbacks that our listeners are equipped with.
