1:11I sure am. I'm Andy Holloway. Are you recording the whole show, Jason?
1:15Oh, no, no. Well, I mean, we are. We are recording this entire episode, and we're going to publish it when it's done.
1:23I just feel like my privacy is being invaded right now.
1:26Because of the glasses? Because you have those glasses with the cameras inside of them?
1:31It's not recording. It would light up if it was recording.
1:35Oh, you didn't get the hack? Mm-hmm. You didn't get the hack?
1:39That's a popular hack. I mean, I know it's recording right now, like, to the people.
1:44The man is watching everything I do, for sure.
1:47Okay. Yeah. I thought maybe you'd share some behind-the-scenes videos.
1:50Maybe someday. See how much you zoom your screen.
1:53See how big the letters are. We got a mock draft episode today.
1:58Full. Full PPR mock draft on the show. We got news to talk about.
2:02We're back again. YouTube.com slash TheFantasyFootballers. If you want to watch the episode, subscribe.
2:07Click that bell button. What else is going on?
2:10The UDK is available. It's out there. It's so ultimate.
2:13It's alive. It's extra ultimate this year. No. People have been getting in there and enjoying all of the 130,000 words of
2:21content and our sleepers, breakouts, buzz, values, stat projections, value scout, all sorts of stuff.
2:26And then the community is JoinTheFoot.com. Let's jump right into news so we can get into that mock draft, please.
2:32News and notes from around the league. Yeah. Brooks would like me to remind everybody that the A.J.
2:38Brown and the Devontae Smith breakdowns for each individual player have just been updated for the UDK as well because, and we
2:45talked about the fact it was probably going to happen, but technically it hadn't happened yet.
2:51A.J. Brown was traded to the Patriots. The Eagles got a 20-28 first and a 20-27 fifth.
2:56Patriots get A.J. Brown. You know what's crazy is the Eagles traded, I believe it was a first and a third, four years ago for A.J.
3:05I thought it was just a one. Yeah. It was just a one.
3:09I think it was just a one. Yeah. I thought it was just a one.
3:14Yeah. Look that up, Kyle. But the fact that they got four years of Pro Bowl caliber elite perfection at wide receiver,
3:21two Super Bowl appearances, one Super Bowl victory, and then they get out.
3:26It's like selling your used car for more than you bought it for.
3:30Jason was right. Oh, it wasn't one of the three?
3:33Jason was right. It was the 18th pick and the 101st pick.
3:37So for a 3-5 swap. You get four years?
3:40You get four years of prime A.J. Brown. And the Cardinals are in a contract dispute with Jacoby Brissett.
3:47The Cardinals are not. So different teams do different things.
3:50Mike said this in Slack the other day, and it's exact.
3:54The Cardinals are not a serious franchise. Yeah, they're very unserious.
3:57They are just not a serious franchise. That's the only way you can view it.
4:02There are a few of those, for sure. Yep.
4:05Yeah. But the big trade, A.J. Brown, now a New England Patriot.
4:09We had talked through some of the implications of the trade that we knew was probably going to happen.
4:15Talked about Devontae Smith and, you know, A.J. Brown, a lot of word has gotten out about the knee and the fact
4:23that the Rams basically backed out of their interest in A.J.
4:26Brown because of concerns around the knee. I think it's going to be a very, very good singular year.
4:33That's how I'm looking at the A.J. Brown situation.
4:36I am not personally really adjusting anything with regards to how we viewed him in Dynasty or anything like that.
4:42I mean, it's nice that he is going to be the number one target for an offense that threw the ball so much more than Philadelphia did.
4:51It's, you know, almost 1,000 more yards. I guess the one thing that we have not really touched on very much is Jalen Hurts, right?
4:59Like, Jalen Hurts, he had a couple of years where his yardage was up there, but the last two years, 32nd and 27th in terms of passing offense.
5:09Losing A.J. Brown is not a good thing for that.
5:12I agree. You can do what you want with, you know, you can go get Makai Lemony.
5:18He's not A.J. Brown. You can go get Eli Stowers.
5:21He's not A.J. Brown. They won the Super Bowl when they were dead last in passing.
5:26So, it's a downgrade to me for Jalen Hurts because if you want to project Hurts getting back to where he was
5:33in terms of passing yardage, I'd much rather do that with A.J.
5:37Brown on that team. Do you guys have thoughts on that?
5:41No, it's for Hurts, it just comes down to, you know, like the tush push is going to be a huge part of it.
5:49They did not have nearly as many last year as they have historically been putting up.
5:54And so, I mean, I think that his passing, Hurts' passing will be fine.
5:59I mean, you can slightly downgrade it. I would agree with that.
6:03I also think that the offensive system, and I know that there were a lot of complaints last year about the fact
6:10that the system was nerfed because that was all that Jalen Hurts could do.
6:15Like, that was a lot of the rumors was they can't really open it up because he's not capable.
6:21I say hogwash to that. He's thrown for 3,800 yards before.
6:25He's played in a better system with Kellen Moore.
6:28I think the offensive coordinator change is impactful. We don't know exactly how good Sean Mannion's going to be or not, but
6:35I do think that it is an upgrade for just the scheme.
6:39The scheme was so unwatchable last year for the Eagles.
6:42You're just saying they changed the coordinator? Yeah. I mean, it could be.
6:47It could be worse. It could be worse. The thing with Jalen Hurts is he did not run as much.
6:53That's a major problem. If you lose A.J. Brown and you go from, I mean, his years of rushing, 784, 760, 605, 630.
7:01Last year was 421. 421. That's a lot less.
7:04421 is, you know, a big downgrade on how you look at him if he's going to pass for 3,200 yards.
7:11The stats have to come somewhere is what I'm saying.
7:14And, you know, eight touchdowns last year and 421 yards rushing.
7:18If you told me he's doing that again and I have to bank on him getting to 3,500 yards, I mean, 3,200
7:25last year was 300 more than the year before.
7:28He was a 2,900-yard passer. So, yeah, I mean, Mike and I were actually talking about this when we stat players out
7:35because we were having this discussion when we got done with our UDK quarterbacks.
7:40And then we were looking at the historical numbers of how many quarterbacks actually pass for more than 4,000 yards per year on a regular basis.
7:48And then you go to your stats and both of us kind of like we just had too many guys over 4,000.
7:56It's been down lately. Yeah, I mean, really the number's like, you know, maybe it's 7.
8:01Last year I think it was 6. 6, 7?
8:04Last year was low. Last year was low. But also low because of injury.
8:09Lamar, Burrow, guys that are usually there. Yeah, but even years before, it's like the number is not that much.
8:15But then you go and we looked at our initial run through and it's like the tendency is to go towards the
8:22rosier outcome sometimes for these quarterbacks because you think the situation is going to play out.
8:28But every single season, you don't have 15 guys with 4,000 yards.
8:32You got 6 or 7 or 8 guys. So he's being drafted right now, Hurts, as the quarterback 6.
8:38Which is fine. That's totally fine. Seems almost like a value.
8:42I just think it's unfortunate, you know, when you lose A.J.
8:45Brown, a true alpha. Devontae Smith's good. But Devontae Smith is not, I don't think we think, you know, he's not going to put up 1,600 yards there.
8:55He's going to be probably, I bet you his prop and A.J.
8:58Brown's prop are similar in terms of total yardage.
9:01But you lose one of those guys. So where does it go?
9:05If things go right for them, okay? Mm-hmm. Sean Mannion's a revelation, right?
9:10I think if it goes really well for the Eagles, it will be because Mikhailem and Eli Stowers were good picks who stepped up as rookies.
9:18That's the, if you want the rosy outlook, I think those two guys make an impact year one.
9:24Which, you know, if you're just looking at odds and bets of whether or not two rookies are going to really have
9:32an immediate, you know, high-end upside impact, it's probably unlikely.
9:35And currently the most recent report was Eli Stowers did not stand out in any way during the media attended practice last week.
9:42But he made a couple catches on Tuesday. So at least to start things, Stowers is not impressing.
9:48Well, Mikhailemans hurt the press. He's got a hamstring injury.
9:52He has not been playing. Josh Jacobs is at OTAs.
9:55Okay. Business as usual, says LaFleur. Okay. We'll see.
9:58Drake London, four years, $141 million. Oh! Ka-ching! Get that shmoney!
10:02They were like, Alec Pierce has paid how much?
10:05Drake, here you go. Yes, thank you. $100 million guaranteed.
10:08Good for you, man. Third highest paid receiver in terms of average annual salary per year.
10:13Yeah. Yeah, he's one of the good ones. Yep.
10:16But, I mean, Jefferson is too. So you just got to make sure you get a guy that can throw you the football.
10:24Right. Regularly. Daniel Jones. Cleared to participate in 7 on 7?
10:27Okay. You all right? No? We need it? More camp buzz.
10:31Mike LaFleur says Marvin Harrison Jr. will play the Devontae Adams role as the ex-receiver, while Michael Wilson will play the Puka
10:38Nakua role closer to the core as the Z-receiver in Arizona.
10:42Obviously, Mike LaFleur came from, you know, the Sean McVay LA system.
10:46And obviously, Harrison and Wilson are the exact same people as Puka Nakua.
10:50Yeah. Based off of that report, give me Michael Wilson.
10:54Oh, big time. Big time. More free releases. More opportunities in this slot.
10:58Because if we got to rely on just touchdowns for Marv.
11:02Yep. Ain't going to be 14. Or targets that ended up with a 50% completion rate for the better Devontae Adams.
11:08Yeah. That's where my concern would be. But it does make me lean more towards Michael Wilson with that report.
11:15Has anyone ever seen only 30% of their targets catchable?
11:18Because Marv might run into that. Brandon Ayuk has been issued an arrest warrant.
11:23It was a misdemeanor. And it goes, I don't really understand this because if you recall, the memes enjoyed this very much
11:30of he posted a video of himself driving very fast in December.
11:34I will, a public service announcement. Don't record that?
11:37If you record yourself doing something that is illegal and then you post it on the internet, they can look at that
11:45as evidence and say, hey, you did something illegal.
11:48So do you get the reward for turning yourself in?
11:51Does he get the reward for posting? I'm like, I guess social, he's cool.
11:55Well, normally a misdemeanor of that, you don't need an arrest warrant.
11:59So that means he didn't show up for other...
12:02It's all weird. And I mean, we haven't really talked about the Ayuk situation of all rumors are him going to Washington.
12:10Like on Instagram, he follows like Jane Daniels, Washington, and maybe one other person.
12:14The thing about the situation is as of right now, the 49ers don't have to do anything.
12:20They can literally just hold Brandon Ayuk and their contract situation actually improves because they start recouping dead cap because Brandon Ayuk making boneheaded decisions.
12:28Like they don't have to trade him. We have not talked about football and Brandon Ayuk in the same sentence in so long.
12:36Well, it's just the... He's just... I don't even know what...
12:39Will we? I don't even know what conclusions we can draw from him arriving somewhere.
12:44How in the world are we going to be like, oh, this is so exciting?
12:49We haven't seen you on a field contributing in so long.
12:53In years. And part of the reason why is because he didn't take his recovery the way that the team wanted him to.
13:01So now we're supposed to trust that he's good to go as well physically.
13:05The team's not going to do him favors in getting him out the door.
13:10That's my point is if I'm the 49ers and Ayuk, like we gave him the money and then his response was not be prepared for the season.
13:19The injury's not his fault, but he didn't recover properly.
13:22He didn't rehab properly. He's like, why would I help you?
13:26Like you set the team back. He was a good player when he was a good player.
13:31The year before he got paid, he was awesome.
13:34And then he was not. All right. We're going to take an early break so that we can jump right into our mock draft.

14:37Call 1-800-GRAINGER, click grainger.com, or just stop by. Grainger, for the ones who get it done.
14:42Well, we've had one mock draft earlier in the offseason.
14:45This is a shot at a 12-team full PPR mock with our entire writing staff and team here in the studio.
14:52So no AI will be used in the recording of this mock draft.
14:57It will be all individual decisions. We'll see who makes the worst one.
15:01Yeah, so when Jake's doing stupid stuff, it's not a robot.
15:05That's Jake. Yeah, any stupid picks are real people.
15:08And we'll pass that feedback on. All right. 12-team full PPR, one quarterback, two running backs, two wide receivers, one tight end, one flex, four bench spots.
15:17We randomly assigned draft spots. I ended up with the one.
15:20I think it is a decision to make in a full PPR.
15:24Like a tough one. Jason's at three. Mike is at eight.
15:28Do you have a favorite spot yet this year?
15:31Probably haven't thought about that. No, not yet. Not yet.
15:34All right. I mean, one's not bad. I'm going to take Puka Nakua.
15:38Oh! Okay. Yeah, I think, you know, so much discussion.
15:42Jameer Gibbs, Bijan Robinson. You can go Jamar Chase.
15:45Full PPR in particular. Puka is a cheat code.
15:48This offense is set up for a repeat, if not better, of what they did last year.
15:53No, I think Puka and a half PPR league is fine to take with number one overall.
15:59But he's my number one wide receiver, and I'm going to take him at one-on-one in a full PPR.
16:05It is, you know, the last draft we did, things thinned out really tremendously quick at running back.
16:11So me being on the turn. Two-in wide receiver.
16:14Well, me being at the turn, I just need to, now that I know that I need to probably be pretty committed
16:21to two running backs on my next two picks.
16:24Yeah, I don't blame you for taking Puka there.
16:27In a full PPR, he's going to have so many receptions.
16:31I still have Jamar Chase over Puka, even in full PPR.
16:35But it's pretty easy to me when Bijan is sitting there at three, I take Bijan.
16:40And you did. So Gibbs went number two, by the way, to Kyle.
16:44Jamar Chase went 104 and JSN went 105. So the three big wide receivers, three of the big wide receivers off the board.
16:52Brooks is on the clock at the 106 in our first round here of the full PPR mock draft.
16:58Brooks went with Christian McCaffrey at 106, who, you know, the team keeps saying they want to give him less work.
17:05And he keeps saying, I can handle all the work you want.
17:09And then the depth chart keeps saying names that you never heard of.
17:13So right now I would feel confident that they'll try to give him all that work.
17:19It's really hard. I find myself very much not wanting CMC.
17:22Coming off a career high in touches just feels so scary.
17:26To be that age and coming off a career high, you know, I mean, obviously if he is on the field and
17:33getting that work, he should be the number one.
17:36He should be over, you know, you should have taken him instead of Puka.
17:41But I'm scared. Well, CMC goes 106 in this draft.
17:44Jonathan Taylor at 107. So Mr. Borland opted for a running back here with Jonathan Taylor at 107.
17:50Not any of the wide outs that are still on the board.
17:54Mike, you are on the clock at 108. I am.
17:57It was going to be Taylor or Aminra for me.
18:01And then Taylor was selected. So it's easy. I'll take Aminra.
18:04It's PPR. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Great pick in PPR.
18:07Number three overall the last three years, which puts Papa Josh on the clock.
18:12Takes the newly minted Drake London. Take a money man.
18:15But that's Drake London over CeeDee Lamb here. Drake London in Atlanta, which is an interesting pick.
18:21CeeDee Lamb goes next at 110. James Cook at 111.
18:24And then the Betts man, Matthew Betts, has two choices.
18:27All right. He went Justin Jefferson. Justin Jefferson at 112 and Saquon.
18:31So went back to back there. Devon Achan comes off the board in the second round, which means that Julia went back to back running backs.
18:40But two guys that catch the football, or at least Achan, sort of a receiver.
18:45Chase Brown and Ashton Gentry go next. Four running backs in the second round.
18:50Mike, you're back on the clock with Aminra St.
18:53Brown. Take us through two, three names that you're thinking through.
18:56So I will be looking at the running back position.
19:00My guy, Ken Bone Walker, is there. What does the reception total look like for the Kansas City Chiefs?
19:06I think that will be fun to find out.
19:09And Hampton, I think, is my next. Between Walker and Hampton.
19:12I mean, let me just say this. Okay. Because if those are the two running backs here between, that makes sense.
19:19I think those are the two highest in ADP here.
19:23You do nothing but talk about how much you love Kenneth Walker.
19:27The only thing you do near as much is talk about how you were not that big a fan of Hampton.
19:34So the fact that you're sitting here, you're like, I'm thinking I'm going to take Hampton over Ken Bone.
19:40Then I just, I say you don't know yourself.
19:43You could do what I did and just not even choose between them.
19:47Just have them both for League of Records. For Kenneth Walker and Hampton?
19:51Yeah. I don't know what that has to do with this monster.
19:55He's just trying to flex his keepers. I was just saying, why choose?
20:00Have both. How did you get both? It sounds like you had a really bad year.
20:05Mike, are you going to pick? Yeah. I'm going to go with Kenneth Walker.
20:10After Jason set that up. Man, you should have taken Hampton.
20:13What an idiot. So that's five consecutive running backs.
20:16Barkley, A-Chan, Chase Brown. Chase Brown ahead of Gentty, ahead of Ken Walker.
20:21Then AJ Brown and Crystal Lave go next. Hampton does go off the board at 208.
20:26Chase Brown in the PPR is, that's a dangerous man.
20:29He could be. Jason's on the clock here. Bijan in the first.
20:33What are you looking at here? You have a quick turn here going into the third round.
20:39Yeah. The wide receivers that are on the board right now are all in kind of a big clump to me.
20:46I don't desperately love one more than the others.
20:49At running back, there are a handful here that I really like.
20:53So I assume I'm going to go running back, which means I'm between Josh Jacobs, business as usual, but obviously has a
21:00lot of red flags in the UDK. I think his risk rating is about as high as it can go.
21:07But I do think if he plays this year for the Packers, he's going to dominate.
21:12You know I'm a sucker for Kyron Williams. I believe in him, and he's great.
21:17And then I'm also, you know, Jeremiah Love, it's a little high, but he's so good.
21:22You know, in the end, I think he'll – I'm starting to have fears about – Two of his games just got harder.
21:30Two of his games just got harder. Yeah, but I mean, I think he's going to catch the ball a lot.
21:37I am going to – This is a man who has no idea who he's going to pick.
21:43That is what I just – I want to take Josh Jacobs.
21:47I really want to take Josh Jacobs. I just worry about that.
21:51So full PPR, you're just like double running backs.
21:53You don't even think – you know what I mean?
21:57I'm thinking – No, just because of tears. I want – I definitely want to take one of these three running backs that I like a lot.
22:06So I'm going to pull the trigger on Kyron Williams because I still 100% believe he is the leader for that team.
22:13And he does not have to play against Miles Garrett.
22:16He gets to play with Miles Garrett. So Jason went with Kyron Williams, which I think he's the – he's Corum's backup, right?
22:24Isn't that the – That's what some people think.
22:27I thought you might think about Brock Bowers, a positional advantage in a full PPR who is sitting there.
22:33And went next to Kyle. Kyle took Brock Bowers there.
22:36I have such a long wait. The running backs when I – like the commitment to Puka was a commitment to two running backs here for my team.
22:46And that's what I wanted to experiment with. Who would actually make it back to me here?
22:51You know, I don't – I just don't – maybe this is a good exercise in the situation right now.
22:58I don't want to draft Josh Jacobs right now.
23:01I just don't. I just don't want to take him.
23:04Like if that news report didn't happen and he doesn't have a question mark, sure, that's probably the pick here.
23:11But I'm not going to do that. And I'm not going to take the rookie in Jeremiah Love.
23:17I think it's just asking a lot to count on him to be my one.
23:22I'm going to take Derrick Henry and Brees Hall.
23:25I'm going to take two guys. Brees Hall is shown he has pass-catching chops.
23:29Derrick Henry in the late second is the bottom of this tier of great running backs.
23:35So I'm going to take two solid workhorse backs because I've got a long wait until my next pick to go with Puka.
23:42Yeah, so it's back to me. At this point, full PPR, I'll take McBride.
23:47You know, I do prefer Bowers. No wideouts. I do prefer Bowers over McBride.
23:52But, I mean, they're both going to catch a ton of passes.
23:56And I think going running back, running back to start will let me really shotgun the wide receivers as the draft goes on.
24:03You didn't mention it, but Ted McMillan went between my pick of Brees Hall and your pick of Trey McBride.
24:10Jeremiah Love does finally go off the board at 3.04.
24:13George Pickens and Devontae Smith go next. And then Producer Borland pulls the trigger with Garrett Wilson.
24:19Nice-looking team with Jonathan Taylor, A.J. Brown, and Garrett Wilson.
24:22I mean, that is two target hogs and then a true workhorse in Taylor.
24:27Whether Taylor can get those reception numbers up, we'll see.
24:30Mike, you're back on the clock. I'm on Ross St.
24:33Brown and Kenneth Walker. And you said, oh, man, because there are names you're struggling with?
24:39Well, I mean, you have the Rasheed Rice question is massive.
24:42I mean, you've got a choice between, like, guys with real questions.
24:46Just guys doing bull crap off the field. Like, Rasheed Rice here would be crazy.
24:51Like, I mean, had his incident of probation violation not happen, I don't think he's available here in the third round.
24:58So that's – oh, my gosh. That's hard. So, like, my feel on that situation is if nothing's going to change is,
25:05like, I think he'll be – I don't think he'll end up suspended.
25:10For who? Rasheed? For, yeah, for Rice. Then, I mean, I would be very committed to the Kansas City Chiefs if I went with Kenneth Walker and Rice.
25:19I'm going to sidestep that. I feel like if we knew for sure Rice was not going to get in trouble, that's where I would go.
25:28I'm going to sidestep it, though. I'm going to take Amika Egbegbu as he will not make it back to me.
25:34And he's just – he's a guy – Amika Egbegbu.
25:38I'm pretty interested in Abuka. All right, so a run of five wideouts there in a row.
25:43Abuka is followed by Rashe Rice and then Josh Jacobs off the board.
25:48I guess the price was right for the Falcon.
25:51Lad McConkie, interesting name in full PPR, followed by Travis H.
25:54And Jr. of the Saints and T. Higgins. So Betsy has Jefferson, Higgins, Barkley, and H.
26:00And, which is interesting, H. And Jr. Higgins, Jamison Williams, Bucky Irving starting off our fourth round.
26:05Josh Allen, the first quarterback off the board at 4-0-4.
26:09Just to recap the teams right now through three rounds, I've got Puka Nakua, Derek Henry, and Breece Hall.
26:15Jason has Bijan, Kyron, and Trey McBride. Mike is rolling with Amon Ross St.
26:19Brown. Ken Walker, his dude. And Ameka Egbegbu. I think we all expect to have an impressive season in Tampa.
26:26Yeah, I'm looking for Egbegbu to step forward. So here at this pick, at the running back position, I've said it a few times, it's disgusting how I...
26:35Oh, I know the name. But just that intro is Swift.
26:39It's DeAndre Swift as the disgusting player I'm interested in here.
26:43We have a pretty strong difference of opinion on Zay Flowers and what he offers for fantasy football.
26:49I mean, Luther Burden is there. That's what I was going to bring up.
26:53Look, I love Luther. I love Luther. I love him.
26:56You know what? I love him so much. In fact, I'm going to take actually the better one.
27:02I'm going to take Mr. Love Land. I'm going to take him in the fourth.
27:07Let's see what this team shakes up to be in.
27:11Producer Borland on the clock. Mike went with Mr.
27:14Love Land. He jumps on Tyler Warren real quick.
27:17Mr. Love Land. Tyler Warren goes one pick later.
27:20Loveland and Warren will probably be close in all drafts.
27:23Javante Williams had been hanging out until the seventh pick of the fourth round.
27:28Lamar Jackson goes next. So two quarterbacks in this round, two tight ends in this round, fourth round.
27:34And Cam Scadaboo maybe... Well, I guess not an option for Jason there.
27:38No, I had him flagged. I very well might have taken him.
27:42And I still might actually take Travion Henderson, who is on the board as well.
27:47Oh, man. I'm just going to go zero wide receiver in the full PPR.
27:51In the full PPR. Yeah. You know, you play around in mocks and see what happens.
27:57It's a bold strategy, Cotton. I'm also tempted here with the fact that I am, you know, I'm going into the fourth without a wide receiver.
28:05I'm tempted to not take a wide receiver by taking Malik Neighbors.
28:09He's at the point where I believe he'll start on the pup, but I also think the second half of the year
28:17he'll be a very dominant wide receiver that you couldn't usually get in the fourth round.
28:22If I played it safe, I've got like Terry McLaurin, I think is a very good wide receiver, should be fine for fantasy.
28:29I'm higher on Mike Evans. Those are the names that I am currently looking at.
28:34And I would say that of those names, I want two of those wide receivers.
28:39So I am going to actually take Malik Neighbors here because you're upset?
28:44No, I guess I'm a little bit upset. Yeah, I would have taken him, but I guess I would have considered you
28:51to be the least likely to take Malik Neighbors because you are the most needy for wide receivers.
28:57You're the only team, not only every team has two wide receivers, he's got for three at this point, and that's your
29:04first one, and he might not be available to you.
29:07I don't think he'll be available to start the season.
29:11But when I look at the other names, the wide receivers that I like, I assume that those guys would come back.
29:18And I did not think Neighbors would come back.
29:21Assuming I'm taking two wide receivers here at the four and five, I'm taking them in the order that I get the
29:28guy that I won't be disappointed the most. All right, so Malik Neighbors goes off the board at 410.
29:35Terry McLaurin is next to Kyle. Luther Burden is still on the clock.
29:39Roma Dunzey is still on the clock. Carnall Tate, the rookie.
29:43Makai Lemon, the rookie. B.T.J., we haven't talked about it, but he's been getting a lot of publicity of sorts.
29:49I kind of have to check one name with you guys.
29:53Are you in a position, Mike? Because we talked about him on the last show, and you had to explain yourself about him.
30:00Would you do the Pukunukua-Devante Adams pairing if it fell that way, where the tier breakdown was Devante's the last of a
30:08tier, and you have to dip down into a whole other category?
30:12Is that a team with an MVP that you would be into it?
30:16I, man. Because I have Puka. Right. He's on the board.
30:20Devante Adams is on the board. You do have the built-in factor that if one guy was to miss time, they go nuclear.
30:27But it's rare to do that combo. The interesting part that's not making sense in my head is if a team wants
30:34to go Jamar Chase, and then assuming T. Higgins provides a value, I'm fine having those two guys on one team.
30:41And if I do that, it's like, well, yeah, and then I'm going to prioritize Joe Burrow.
30:47And it's because I feel like when Joe Burrow is healthy, he's 4,500 yards, mid-30s in the touchdowns.
30:53He hasn't always been healthy. And Stafford had the great year, but he's given us some clunkers.
30:59Is it Devante Adams who's really helping to unlock, plus the new way that they're doing offense?
31:04I think I'm okay with it. If the value presented itself, if you want to go all in on the Rams.
31:11Yeah. I think that that is fine. I would agree with Mike.
31:15If I did that, I might be looking, because Stafford in a single quarterback league probably doesn't even get drafted.
31:22He'd probably be my last pick. I'll just, you know, we're talking about everything.
31:26I'm not going to hide anything here. So my decision here is a tough one between, like I'm probably going to pull
31:34the trigger on a running back here, which I didn't think there'd be ones I liked.
31:39Travo. Well, to me, Judkins also is sitting there.
31:42Oh, man. And so Judkins, Judkins looks great, by the way.
31:46If you look at him at OTAs, he looks outstanding.
31:49And this is not to take away from the ability of Jared Verse.
31:53Miles Garrett's different. Miles Garrett changes things so much.
31:56And the only reason that that team could run ever is because their defense was holding everything, was holding the game script close.
32:04I think Quinshawn Judkins actually gets a knockdown from me from Miles Garrett leaving of, will they be able to ball control?
32:11At least at the same, kind of the way they were able to do it last year.
32:17Or are they going to have to turn to a pass much quicker?
32:21I mean, the logic checks out. I think their offense will be better.
32:25I think the play calling will be better with Monk in.
32:29And whether that balances it out. I don't mean to just take forever on this pick.
32:34But the decision between Adams, the other name that I think in a PPR league is the most interesting to me is Carnell Tate.
32:42Because when I look at the guys on the board, Mike Evans, that's not going to be a PPR play.
32:49I don't like DJ Moore. I don't like Zay Flowers.
32:52Jalen Waddell, I don't know what I'm getting. I know Carnell Tate's going to be the target leader of a team that I really like with Brian Dable.
33:01And so I think I am going to split these guys up.
33:05I'm going to take Carnell Tate in the fourth round.
33:09That's probably the earliest he's gone in any of these drafts.
33:12But I have to wait 22 picks between my selections.
33:16And I am going to go quench on Judkins.
33:19I just have a different conviction about him than you do.
33:22I feel like with Puka on my team, Tate is a perfect number two option.
33:27So I'm going to roll that and see what happens with the long wait.
33:32Trevo goes next to Kyborg. And Jason, you're on the clock probably where it's pining for Trevo.
33:37No, because I would have loved to take him.
33:40I think the value in the fifth is fantastic.
33:43But with my build, I really have to get a wide receiver here.
33:48And I'm between Mike Evans and Roma Dunze. Mike Evans, I really, really like.
33:52But you're right. He is not really the PPR play.
33:56I want a guy who can get 150 targets, be a volume play.
34:00And I think that is Rome. Obviously, there's disagreement.
34:03Most people are putting Luther Burden ahead of Dunze.
34:06We'll find out as the season goes. But I'm going to stick with my conviction that he is their primary target leader.
34:13The hardest part, I'll just tell you, because I like Rome as well.
34:17The hardest part between those two when I was staring them down was not.
34:22But I like Rome. But I like the draft gap in ADP is very intimidating there.
34:27Like it's 30 picks. Like Burden's going 30 picks ahead of Rome.
34:31So when you want to pull the trigger on Rome, that gets into the back of your head a little bit.
34:38But you stuck with your conviction. Joe Burrow at 504.
34:42Luther Burden goes at 505. So Mike doesn't get him.
34:45Should we worry about the Madden cover? You know, you for drafting Loveland and me getting Rome.
34:50Who was it last year? It was Barkley. Okay.
34:53Jadarian Price goes at 506 ahead of Swift. What do you think of that?
34:58Taking the shot on Jadarian Price. I mean, I wouldn't do that.
35:02That's the opinion that you're sharing? I wouldn't do that.
35:05I mean, I don't mind Price going around this range.
35:09But Swift. Do you have any regrets taking Loveland with seeing that Burden and Swift just barely didn't make it back?
35:16No. No. No. The only regret I would have is I had forgotten before we started.
35:21It was like, I think I'm going to go a build because I'll just talk about it now.
35:27You know, with more and more quotes and things coming out.
35:30I think Tucker Craft's going to be okay, guys.
35:33Like, I think he's going to be good to go at least at some point in training camp.
35:39And, yes, there could be a slower start. But for where you get to take Tucker Craft and with what he was
35:47doing, I'm starting to shift from being pretty cautious around it to if the news keeps going the way that it's going
35:54to go, I'm just going to remove all those red flags and take my price discount on Tucker Craft.
36:00Which would be like, I mean, who knows where he'll go now.
36:04But, you know, generally speaking, it would be at least a few rounds from now.
36:09So, that would be the only disappointment for me having gone with Loveland early.
36:14All right. Interesting. Yeah, I think it's pretty long wait for DeAndre Swift.
36:18Pretty good value there for Al Borland at 5.07.
36:21Mike, you're back on the clock. Amon Ross, A.
36:24Brown, Ken Walker, Abuka, and Loveland at 5.08. I mean, who's it going to be?
36:29Zay Flowers is still there. So, I will take him.
36:32Yep. Last year, I know the final finish is not – he was wide receiver 7.
36:38Not totally wide receiver 7, but 1,200 yards and only five touchdowns.
36:42And Zay Flowers, to me, is a player who if – I think a fluky touchdown season is in the cards for
36:49him at some point of where he's at like eight or more.
36:53All right, Mike, went with Zay Flowers. DJ Moore finally goes.
36:56Jalen Waddell, Devontae Adams at 5.11. Bashal Tootin at 5.12.
37:00Sixth round begins with Mike Evans. And how do you like your team and how it's shaping up so far, Jay?
37:07I do like it. I mean, I think it's going to depend on what happens the rest of the draft because I
37:14went risky taking a onesie in McBride and an injured neighbors in a full PPR.
37:19But I'm pretty happy with how it's going so far.
37:22I do want to point out – Bashal Tootin that Betts just took at the turn, that was – I've been seeing
37:30more and more about Crod being hurt. I was a little bummed that Tootin did not make it back to me.
37:37Yeah, he was on my list as well. You know Tootin's not making it past me.
37:42Evans, Tyson, BTJ at 6.03 who has gotten a lot of attention.
37:46But there's also been quotes from that, you know, from Liam Cohen saying the ball goes to a lot of different places in this offense.
37:54R.J. Harvey. Dude, the coach – Papa Josh has R.J.
37:57Harvey as his running back two. Would you feel comfortable with R.J.
38:01Harvey as your running back two? No. Would you feel comfortable with R.J.
38:06Harvey as your running back four? Four, yeah. Okay.
38:09If you were going to go to three, I was going to say no.
38:13No, I would not. Mike, you're back on the clock.
38:17Yeah, really wanted to go Flowers and get Tootin on the way back.
38:21The running backs are right now, like ADP-wise, Montgomery, Jalen Warren, Ramondre, Manungay, Tony Pollard, Rico, Chuba.
38:26I mean, so it's like some interesting players are there, but I think the – you know, that true upside guy who
38:34can break into the top 12, that was Tootin.
38:37So I only have one running back, but we're going to keep going.
38:41Are you? Yeah. To me, there's a couple of, like, guaranteed production names.
38:45Yeah, but we're trying to win a championship here, and Christian Watson is one of my – I hate you.
38:52League – I thought for sure you'd go running back there, and I was locked into Watson on this pick.
38:59No, he – Instead, you have a bear. My upside pick.
39:02Yeah, exactly. Well, Watson goes to Mike. You do believe in him, but it is a – it's a gamble when, you
39:09know, Ken Walker has had some injury issues. Oh, yeah.
39:13And you're still waiting. But we know how you play.
39:16Producer Borland cries into the heavens and then ends up with a quarterback instead.
39:21Drake May goes at 6-0-6. My dude, Alec Pierce at 6-0-7.
39:24Jalen Warren and David Montgomery fly off the board.
39:27I have my eyes on – well, I'm going to get the guy I want because you two both already drafted tight ends.
39:35But I'm looking to get Harold Fannin with my seventh-round pick.
39:39But, Jason, you're on the clock, B. John. I know.
39:42Super exposure to the Cleveland Browns. I knew, I knew, I know.
39:46What could go wrong? B. John, Kyron, McBride, Neighbors, and Odunze for Jason.
39:50I feel like when you go into your platform and you try and put in Judkins and Fannin, it'll be like, your roster is illegal.
39:58We're going to stop you right here. There's a chance I take two wide receivers.
40:03Friends don't let friends start multiple Browns. It's possible.
40:06But let's see what Jason goes with. I am going to – look, I'm playing risky here, and I'm also going away
40:14from ADP and going with what I genuinely believe.
40:17You guys just talked about the report in the news section today.
40:21I'm going to do it again. I'm going to take a third-year wide receiver over the teammate who is being drafted higher.
40:28It's a little disgusting, but I'm taking Marvin Harrison Jr.
40:31Oh! Yeah. I don't believe that he is bad.
40:34I just don't. He was injured like crazy last year.
40:37You're going to draft Jacoby, too? I am not drafting Jacoby Myers, no.
40:42I mean, you've got McBride and Harrison. Oh, man.
40:45Maybe I'll talk about this. How about Carson Beck?
40:48I think he meant Jacoby Brissett, not Jacoby Myers.
40:51Oh, yeah, I did. That's my bad. Well, wait.
40:54I've got my pick. We'll see if I go with Fannin.
40:57Double Browns will take you down. Jason went double Cardinals, though, and it's on the way to success.
41:03All right. We'll take a break, and I'll make my sixth-round pick.

42:06For the ones who get it done. Well, I am going to pull the trigger on another wide receiver for sure with
42:13one of my two picks here at the turn.
42:16And I had a name set aside for a while.
42:19It's kind of perfect. When you have Puka, I'm going to take a shot on two opportunities for rookies.
42:26I have Carnell Tate, and then I have Makai Lemon.
42:29So I'm going to take both of those guys.
42:32That's fun. And I hope that it shakes out for both, and maybe at least one of them to step into the lineup.
42:40Now I'm looking at a couple onesie options. I could run the stack.
42:44I could take Jalen Hurts here. I think a seventh-round Jalen Hurts is pretty awesome.
42:49Or I could go Fannin, or I could just try to stack up another wide receiver.
42:54But seeing Hurts there, you know, in the seventh round, I'm going to pull the trigger on him.
43:00That's pretty wild. I'm going to take Jalen Hurts there.
43:03I mean, where was he last year? Not there.
43:06My goodness. Probably fourth round. Yeah. All right. Goosh.
43:09By the way, Jaden Daniels did go between Harrison and Lemon, so he was off the board.
43:15So Hurts, kind of a tear break for me at quarterback between the rest of the group and where Jalen Hurts was.
43:22Kyle went with Josh Downs at 7-0-2. Jason, you're back on the clock.
43:26Jacoby Brissett is available. Michael Wilson's available. So there are options on the roster.
43:31I am pretty tempted. Ooh, Kendrick Bourne? Kendrick Bourne's there.
43:34So I'm going to look at running back right now.
43:38James Conner's there. What we've learned this offseason is when running backs kind of empty out, they are gone.
43:44And I think the reason that that's happening this year when we've done our mocks is because usually the back half of
43:51drafts is where you take these rookie running backs.
43:54There just aren't rookie running backs. All the rookie running backs this year are day three picks that weren't...
44:01Unclear situations. Unclear situations that weren't like elite prospects.
44:04Right. You know, you look at last year and it was so many of these guys that you're taking shots on and they just don't exist this year.
44:13So I'm going to take a guy that I think is an extreme value.
44:17I would rather have him than R.J. Harvey. I'm going to take J.K.
44:22Dobbins. Oh, you snake. Yeah, I know. You are in agreement that he is probably the best value on the team as
44:29just the veteran first man up on a good offense.
44:32Oh, no. Timu Nakua went next. Michael Wilson at 7.04.
44:36And then Harold Fannin does go at 7.05. I'd like to believe he was going to pick him if I didn't say anything.
44:43But it's Jake. Yeah, it's probably not. So Chuba Hubbard goes at 7.06.
44:48And DK Metcalf. Oh, you have fallen. You have fallen far.
44:517.07 for Metcalf. Oh, man. That's a good pick right there.
44:55Disappointed. Oh, no. I really hoped that Chuba or Dobbins.
44:58And I think if I were not in a draft with all of y'all, JK Dobbins would have made it to him.
45:05He is a stabilizer at the running back position.
45:08There's more beat reporters again. They're just like, Dobbins is the starter.
45:12We're telling everyone, JK Dobbins is starting. And RJ Harvey is kind of doing the same stuff he did last year.
45:19But he's boring, Mike. He's just boring. All right.
45:22The thing is, he's not boring. He just gets hurt all the time.
45:27When he's on the field, he is awesome. This round is like the last three running backs off the board.
45:33Maybe you could say four with Jalen Warren. But they are the like, just try it and true.
45:39Get the job done. Not flashy. David Montgomery, JK Dobbins, and Chuba, three in a row.
45:44I don't know if you saw the comments from Jonathan Brooks at the podium.
45:49But they were asking him something about his speed and his 40 times.
45:53And he's just like, it's faster than Chuba. I know that.
45:57I mean, and they were all laughing. What? No, it was good.
46:01It was lighthearted. It was funny. They were asking how his speed is coming off.
46:06Like, what's your top speed? He's like, I'm not sure.
46:09Faster than Chuba. I know I'm faster than Chuba.
46:12Dad is. That's cold-blooded. It was funny. That was great.
46:16Metcalf, though, goes to Al Borland, who I think, you know, if you get him in the seventh round, I know Mike
46:23is just, he can withdraw from this comment. But I think that's a steal.
46:27So, Mike, you're back on the clock. You got four wideouts.
46:31You got a tight end. You got one running back.
46:34Yeah, I'm going to go running back here. You got somebody you like-ish?
46:39I got someone who I'm going to draft. I bet I know who it is.
46:44Oh. Do you want me to take a guess?
46:47I mean. Because it's not near the top of the ADP.
46:50He's not at the top of the ADP. I've got my guess as well.
46:55You want me to write it down on this board?
46:58Yeah, we'll write it down. Write it down. And then you'll reveal it, and we'll hold it up and see if we're right.
47:06All right? A little game. All right. It's not great for audio.
47:10But go ahead. I can see Jason. His is wrong, so you can put yours down.
47:15Okay, what was yours, Jason? Aaron Jones. Oh, that was mine, too.
47:19Okay. Oh, Aaron Jones is actually a, that is a good guess.
47:23We both guessed Aaron Jones, yeah. Honestly, he would be second behind this player.
47:28I'm going to take the chance. Bill, Bill, Bill.
47:31Really? Yep. That's the first Bill of the season.
47:34I'll just say. Isn't it funny? We're just, he's just blending into the.
47:38Yes, he is. We haven't talked about him at all.
47:41Is it Corey Krosky? I feel like the addition of Rashad White.
47:45Bill Krosky. I'm not sure that Bill Krosky is a great bet right now.
47:50Just read, you know, there were coaches talking about him again.
47:53Yeah, he's really got to work on, you know, his pass catching.
47:57Yeah. And you're like. Which is what Rashad White can do.
48:01So it, I think it's risky business, but there, there is a world where Bill is like the grinder and he's the
48:08guy at the, at the goal line as well.
48:11And, and just at least historically speaking, when you have a quarterback that, you know, Daniels was hurt last year.
48:18Yep. But when you have a quarterback that can run the ball, that can run the option, that has generally been a good thing.
48:26Like, don't forget, RG3 ran the option and Alfred Morris benefited from the option long ago.
48:31Yeah, that's right. Ja'Cory Krosky married to Mike at 7.08.
48:34Didn't see that coming. Ramondre goes next. I know Mike wouldn't have taken Ramondre.
48:39Godwin. Dowdle. Could have seen that. Yeah. Tony Pollard, Herbert in the eighth round, Tucker Craft to Julia and then Wandale and Parker Washington.
48:47Lots of Parker Washington talk, not just in regards to how he's performing in OTAs, but the team expects him to take a big step up.
48:56I was going to say that. Contract could be around the corner.
49:00The sifting through all of the comments coming out of Jacksonville is hard because I saw the Brian Thomas stuff.
49:06Yep. And then there was even a comment of Brian Thomas saying something to the extent of like, well, it doesn't hurt right now.
49:14Of like, which, you know. When he runs. Yes, when he runs.
49:18And that was, you know, one of the theories of the beginning of last year because you had a wrist gate where
49:25Coach Cohen made an off, just like a comment about Brian Thomas' wrist hurting.
49:30And then like tried to backtrack and then it was never heard from again.
49:35It was really strange. So it was, oh, well, maybe Brian Thomas was hurt.
49:39So he's getting all this news. But then Parker was.
49:43So I don't really know how to handle that.
49:46And thankfully, the guy that you guys wrote down, he came back to me.
49:50It's not the most inspiring of picks, but Aaron Jones, I will take Aaron Jones here.
49:55When you Aaron Jones is like. I don't know how other people are feeling about the Vikings, but I still believe in
50:03the O'Connell offense that it will give us a top half, like a top 15 scoring offense.
50:08If that happens, you want to take shots on those running backs in there.
50:13And it sounds like Aaron Jones is going to be the starter.
50:17Oh, no. You got. Did you get huge? I got.
50:20I got huge. So Mike took Aaron Jones and then Quorum Laporta gain.
50:25Well, and then right before Jason, I guess you had your eyes on Quentin Johnston.
50:30I did. Which is something that people didn't used to want to admit.
50:34No, I think Quentin Johnston is such a good value in this year's draft to where he's going.
50:40I mean, this is the back of the eighth round.
50:43And honestly, from ADP wise, this was ahead of where he goes on average.
50:48So I thought for sure I'd be getting huge here, which I would love for my team.
50:53I still need more wide receiver help. If I didn't have to make those two running back picks, Quentin Johnston would have probably been one of them.
51:02It is funny how. So Cortland Sutton's top of ADP.
51:06This is very late for a guy who has been what, like back to back.
51:11Should be good in PPR. Wide receiver. Well, my point is I don't even look at him.
51:16Like I don't want Cortland Sutton at all. And he pretty sure he was a wide receiver one last year.
51:23But I'm going to take a shot on. So you're still not looking at him.
51:28Correct. That summary was that you do not want the 120 plus targets he's guaranteed to receive.
51:33I don't know that he's guaranteed that with Waddle now.
51:37I think he is. I don't know if you know what guaranteed means.
51:41I think Sutton's going to be solid. Well, he was at 135 and then 124.
51:46So, I mean, he could obviously come down. But he's probably.
51:50In the eighth round, you can deal with his ups and downs.
51:54This is the. Are you guys trying to talk me into Corlin?
51:58No, I don't care. I'm trying to talk to the audience.
52:01I'll probably take him if you don't. But all I'm saying is that the psychological effect of Sutton wasn't as good as we wanted him to be.
52:10And they add another name to the offense. That combination generally drives a guy down.
52:15I don't know if that talked you into it.
52:18Yeah, you didn't. I'm going to build the city.
52:21I'm going to take a guy. Oh, baby. That I like.
52:25Does that drop even exist anymore? Yeah, it's there somewhere.
52:28I don't have it. Hit it. Ow. Ow. Hit it.
52:31I'm going to take Michael Pittman. Ow. Hit it.
52:34I think he's going to be the number one target over DK Metcalf.
52:39Hit it. Hit it this season. Yeah, man. I couldn't not like the Pittman.
52:43I like Pittman. Yeah. Take me out of that city.
52:46I don't want to be in that city. You got to have something without me in it.
52:52No, I don't want the number two potentially number two target for.
52:56I can say potentially right at a minimum. You can.
52:59You know, he could be the number two to do boldly declare.
53:03He is the number two. I think would be a misstep.
53:07But I'm on the clock and Sutton did not go.
53:10I'm so thankful to Kyle, by the way, because I was going to be right back.
53:16Oh, my God. Was that just all the rookies?
53:19Well, I was going to be right back in the maybe I grab a second Brown again with Casey Concepcioni.
53:25He had been sitting on my queue. Here's the picks I'm looking at.
53:29I'm going to pull the trigger on a guy I don't want to draft.
53:34I'm just going to end symbolically. I'm going to make it be my second pick.
53:39So it's a ninth round pick and not an eighth.
53:42So I feel better about it. My first pick is going to be Matthew Golden.
53:47He's going to be on the field all the time in Green Bay.
53:52He is two and a half rounds behind Christian Watson.
53:55I'm going to take my shot at it. Yeah, I don't mind it.
53:59The second name is going to be, I mean, frankly, in a PPR league better than he would be anywhere else because
54:07they need to throw the ball to somebody else.
54:09I'm going to do it. I'm going to take Kyle Pitts.
54:13I'm going to take Kyle Pitts in the ninth round.
54:16Oh, man. I just feel like that's a steal at tight end.
54:20I don't need to watch Atlanta, but Drake London dot dot dot.
54:24There's nobody else. When Drake London was there, there was literally no one else.
54:29Why? And he was the number three tight end, Mike.
54:32Because when Drake London was gone. Number two, I thought.
54:36He had. No, he was. He was tight end, too.
54:39So you can like he had the crazy game, right?
54:42But just throw that out and just look. 120 targets, 88 receptions.
54:46I'm in a full PPR league. I'm going to take him here in the ninth and get a value.
54:52And you have to have a tight end before the drop changes.
54:56Yeah. You're back on the clock. I knew you can take Cortland Sutton now.
55:01I knew who I was going to take because both the teams, you and Kyle at the turn already had quarterbacks.
55:08So I didn't take the player. I would have taken over Pittman last round because I didn't need to.
55:14I'm going to take Jackson Dart to pair with my Malik neighbors, hoping that at the end of the year we can catch fire, win a championship.
55:23I love the mobile rushing upside, obviously. And, you know, coming into year two, maybe special things in store.
55:30All right. Well, Jason took Jackson Dart. Omar Cooper, Jr., Sutton, Dak, Addison.
55:34We're getting towards the end here. Mike, you're back on the clock.
55:38You will need a QB in the next three rounds.
55:41Yeah, I'm not worried about that. The quarterbacks available are Caleb Williams, Trevor Lawrence, Patrick Mahomes, Brock Purdy, Stafford, Goff, Malik Willis, Shuck.
55:49Was it Harditz that put that out? Somebody tweeted quarterbacks with the most like long touchdown passes in the last four years
55:56and they listed them top to the bottom. Like Jalen Hurts was number one, right?
56:01He was like 37 or 27, something like that.
56:04The last place player with eight of the entire list of 30 plus quarterbacks.
56:09Do you know who it was? Mahomes? Patrick Mahomes.
56:12Oh. Eight long touchdowns. So on one hand, you could be like, he still managed to be relevant without doing that.
56:18Like not good, but relevant. I think when you have long touchdowns, that is every bit as much of what wide receiver do you have?
56:27You know, it's not Jalen Hurts. It's A.J. Brown.
56:30It wasn't Patrick Mahomes. It was Tyreek Hill. You know, it's like when you've got the guy that can get behind the
56:37entire defense and catch the bomb, it's very helpful, which that is a Drake May statement.
56:42All right, Mike. Pull the trigger. Speaking of a Drake May statement.
56:46Romeo Dobbs. I will take Romeo Dobbs. It actually fills up two draft spots because of the helmet.
56:52I assume... Which you don't get a tenth now.
56:55I assume that if, look, if Drake May does what he should do, which is be a north of 4,000 yard passer
57:02with, you know, close to 30, maybe more passing touchdowns, there should be at least two players in that passing offense you want.
57:10So I'm going to bet on the guy who they are betting on.
57:14Yeah, it'll be, you know, I think Kayshawn Booty this morning requested a trade.
57:19And it's funny because the team requested that like two months ago.
57:23So it's time for him to get out and say, yeah, I want to be somewhere else as well.
57:29Julia goes... So after Mike's pick, Mark Andrews, Caleb Williams, Tyrone Tracy, Trevor Lawrence, Jordan Mason, Woody Marks.
57:35Where are you guys with Mark Andrews? Yes, I actually am quite high on Mark Andrews as when you're taking the strategy
57:43that I take, which is basically I'm punting, I either get one of the main guys or I punt all the middle
57:50rounds and you need a late round guy. Mark Andrews, I don't think he's going to go out there and put up
57:57900 yards, but with Isaiah likely gone, he is a touchdown machine for Lamar Jackson.
58:02I think he has every bit of chance of any of the other crap at this point in the draft to go get 10 touchdowns.
58:10I think you're right about that. I think this is the one format where I would avoid him like the plague.
58:17Just because it's full PPR? Yeah, I mean, his last three seasons, 45, 55, 48 in total reception.
58:23So it is touchdown or bust for him. But I do see a world where he's more productive this year.
58:30Yeah, I wonder with likely being gone, how much that was...
58:33He was likely even around last year. He was.
58:36Was he? Yeah. I don't know. All right, Mike, you're at 10.05 here.
58:41Let's run it out. All right. We're just going to go...
58:44We're just going to go where? Well, I'm going to say I'm going to go with an upside rookie because I really...
58:52I don't have any. So I'm going to at least make sure I get one.
58:57And in this mock, I'm going to go Antonio Williams.
59:00That's who I had just marked. From Washington of...
59:03We just did the IU talk. And I don't know.
59:06I was reading some... There was some kind words being said about last year's pick, Jalen Lane.
59:12So I want to make sure I'm keeping an eye on him.
59:16But for this draft, sure, I'll grab Antonio Williams and we'll see what happens.
59:20All right. Yeah, it is important to know that there are some guys like...
59:25Jalen Lane's one of them, but some of these players that just didn't have the opportunities last year.
59:31But when these depth charts are really light, they may get a chance.
59:35Chigakonkwo goes next to B-Cat. So he is... He was drafted.
59:39Jason, you're on the clock. I mean, at this point...
59:42I'm going to take a player who I almost took over Pittman when we were having the Sutton-Pittman conversation.
59:49He is a week one wonder boy. So you know he'll get off to a hot start.
59:54Sammy Watkins? Close. Jaden Reed. Oh. You know, basically we've all taken a shot here, the three of us.
60:00No! Kyle! No! Oh, Johnny Brooks. No! Oh, no!
60:03That was my assumed last... Gosh dang it! That was my assumed 11th round pick.
60:08You were going to take Brooks? Son of a gun!
60:12Jonathan Brooks! That's a good pick right there. Dang it!
60:15Yeah. I got to find a new pick. I thought for sure I'd get him.
60:20Gosh dang it. All right. Fine. You can have him.
60:23Oh, I don't think you... We're going to talk about him.
60:27We're going to talk about him next week. I don't think you can stop it.
60:32No, I mean, I could. I probably did the commish of the league.
60:36I could actually move it. Well, that sucks. I'm going to take Zach Charbonnet at 10-12.
60:41It's funny because nobody wants... Like, every time Jadarian Price gets drafted, everybody's like, Oh, I don't like that.
60:48But then, like, nobody drafts Charbonnet? Yeah. Isn't that a weird thing?
60:52I can dislike it all. I mean, Super Bowl champs, good offensive line.
60:56And then I'm going to just throw this dude on my IR.
61:00I'm taking George... Oh, I like it. Yeah. George Kittle with the final pick of the draft.
61:06Oh, there's Keenan. Kyle ruined my... Oh, of course he took Keenan Allen.
61:10Kyle took Keenan Allen in the 11th. Of course he did.
61:14Of course he did. Honestly, you smashed those last two picks, you son of a gun.
61:19I'm going to take Chris Rodriguez. I know I just mentioned...
61:22Crod. Crod is injured. But he also has a chance to be the starting running back for the Jacksonville Jaguars.
61:29Mahomes, Emmitt Johnson going next. Brooks is on the clock.
61:32He took Pearsall last round, by the way. I don't think I mentioned Pearsall off the board.
61:38Nobody wants Pearsall. Kind of funny. Love Purdy, right?
61:41Doesn't have Kittle. Yeah. Jason likes Evans, who's 107 years old.
61:45Pearsall should be higher. And Pearsall's just not a target.
61:48Yeah. No, he should be drafted higher than this.
61:51Jalen McMillan, Khalil, Shakir, Mike, you have your final pick of quarterbacks, so you've got to take one.
61:57I do. Left on the board, just for people at home listening.
62:01You could do a stack with Goff. You could do a stack with Baker.
62:05We are in the 11th. And available QBs to me, Brock Purdy, Stafford, Bo Nix, Jordan Love, Jared Goff, Malik Willis, Baker, Tyler Shuck.
62:13There's plenty of weekly starters, plenty of upside. Between...
62:16If I were... If they're, you know... Thinking through it, Brock Purdy, Malik Willis, Tyler Shuck, those would be the three guys that I would be looking at.
62:26And for this one... I mean, this one I'm just going to go...
62:30I'll just take Brock Purdy. He is my highest ranked QB right now.
62:34All right, Mike pulled the trigger there, which is going to bring us to the end of another mock draft here.
62:41Full PPR mock draft. A couple picks left. Jonah Coleman goes in the last round.
62:46My team, if we want to run it back, I've got Jalen Hurts at the quarterback position.
62:52Puka Nakua, Carnell Tate, Makai Lemon, and Matthew Golden at wide receiver.
62:56Derrick Henry, Brees Hall, Quinchan Judkins, and Charbonnet at running back with Kyle Pitts.
63:00And a side of George Kittle on the IR.
63:03I have Jackson Dart leading the way at quarterback.
63:06Trey McBride, my other onesie. At running back, Bijan Robinson, Kyron Williams, J.K.
63:11Dobbins, and Crod. And then at wide receiver, Malik Neighbors, Roma Doons, a Marvin Harrison, Michael Pittman, and Jaden Reed.
63:17My wide receivers, Amun Ross, St. Brown, Emeka Buka, Zay Flowers, Christian Watson, Romeo Dobbs, Antonio Williams went very wide receiver heavy for the PPR.
63:26Ken Walker, Bill Krosky, Merritt, Aaron Jones are my running backs.
63:29So that'll be the... Looking at it, it's like Dobbs or Williams for Brooks.
63:34I think I should... I probably should have made that swap and not let Jonathan Brooks drop.
63:39But then Brock Purdy and Mr. Loveland are my onesies.
63:43I like that we all three took a shot on the Packers wide receiver.
63:47Oh, we have the three? We have the three of like, someone's got to be good.
63:53All three of us will be disappointed. Yeah, for sure.
63:56All right, don't forget next week we're getting into early breakouts and sleepers, early values and busts.
64:02Also, all of our tiered rankings, custom scoring, cheat sheets, all that stuff's in the UDK.
64:07You can go to ultimatedraftkit.com. It's available right now.
64:10All of the content is available. When you listen to shows like this, when you go do mock drafts, when names start
64:17popping up on the show, you're like, oh my gosh, I forgot about that guy.
64:22Like Jonathan Brooks. All of us clearly had Jonathan Brooks as a late round target, who we will talk about next week.
64:29But you can go open the UDK app and go mark them.
64:33You know, like mark the players so that when you're going through your draft...
64:38So important. You can actually... Like, it's just impossible to keep all those names in your head.
64:44It just is. And it's so easy... So you've got to make some notes.
64:48When you're actually at the draft to just forget.
64:51And it's so nice when you can just swipe down and look for a big yellow bar, like someone you've highlighted.
64:58And it's like, oh yeah, I don't want to forget about this guy who's buried in ADP.
65:04It's such a valuable tool. All right, that'll do it for today's show.
