bear? Rigorous sitting and they. Yell.

2:19

So it's you and I. And that's okay.

2:21

I think that makes for a great so.

2:24

You. And I have also just

2:27

completed our initial run through

2:29

of. The. Twenty Twenty

2:31

Four Staff projections for every single

2:33

offensive player in the National Football

2:35

League? Yes, we have. It was

2:37

a grueling labor of love and

2:39

this is only the first go

2:41

through. Will love this. Would be

2:43

updating things non stop when superstars

2:45

like doing Guyton sign right at

2:47

certain places. but oh, they'll back

2:49

on. My. Be I said

2:51

superstar So yeah me was it, it's it.

2:53

but it it took a lot of work

2:56

and or it's nice to have the first

2:58

set done. The. Got a way

3:00

to happen? And. Just like hunkered

3:02

down exam Very Daves D. As

3:04

it takes me too long if

3:07

there's any noise in a moment

3:09

and I have. Different. Processes

3:11

for completing. Our.

3:14

Statistical. Projections.

3:16

Yes, Very diff. Yeah, mine is really good.

3:19

Slump. Mine. Is also prefer

3:21

it slip. Yeah, I don't know. I think it

3:23

is good. I think your process is good. It's

3:25

just that. Ah, sometimes you end

3:27

up in this place of desperation because.

3:30

Normally I am done before you.

3:33

And. It was not the case this year.

3:35

you started very early. This is the

3:37

forgot a way to of wilderness yard

3:39

arts or tenth year are doing the

3:41

show. This is first year I was

3:43

the first one to finish because of

3:45

the wilderness. I think the woodland creatures.

3:48

They helped. They certainly did. Yes, are you and

3:50

I? we We went through our first run

3:52

through. We been. It's. Fine

3:54

When you get done standing out, all these

3:56

players are least the first draft of the.

3:59

Which. All those into. The Drop your. That's where all

4:01

of our rankings come from. All of

4:03

our projections and everything or in there. It's

4:05

also what allows your custom scoring format stood

4:07

you know if if if you do things

4:10

where you know whether you six point or

4:12

four point or you do have extra bonus

4:14

for tight ends at this you know whatever

4:16

your league is. You plug in your stats

4:18

and and we have this the statistical backing.

4:21

Yeah, so you can yeah, exactly. contort the

4:23

rankings to your league style. That's part of

4:25

the you to case customization. But.

4:27

It's fun when we kind of get done with

4:29

the only looked like at for example. My.

4:32

First run thrive Marvin Harrison Junior Somebody

4:34

that people are very excited to see

4:36

where he gets that it's I admit

4:38

number nine. And. I think you've

4:41

got him. I have all around sixteen

4:43

I have. I'm a little bit lower.

4:46

Right now he I believe he's my wide

4:48

receiver. seventeen. In half ppr

4:50

scoring. His. Upside is through the

4:53

roof though. I don't blame anyone taking him

4:55

as a top ten wide receiver. Is there

4:57

a name on your initial rankings at any

4:59

position? That. You

5:02

are embarrassingly high on. And.

5:05

Would have preferred I didn't bring it

5:07

up and could adjust it. And.

5:09

Then come back and tell me the number

5:11

later. So if it's the with this, this

5:13

is the weirdest one. It's it's It's so

5:16

so so silly to say that you're embarrassed

5:18

of the sky. Number One. Because.

5:20

He literally might be the best player of

5:22

all time in an Nfl, but I was

5:24

genuinely. Whole heartedly

5:26

shocked. When. I finish my rankings

5:29

and saw the path. My home's was my

5:31

quarterback, one and six point scoring formats. Now

5:33

obviously he's been there before us. Not like

5:35

an outlandish thing, but you know who's the

5:37

quarterback eight last year that the system that

5:39

they've been employing is more dink and dunk.

5:41

And while I do think he's upgraded his

5:43

weapons, I was just. I. Was surprised

5:46

to see that's how it it landed. but.

5:49

Most part of my process is going

5:51

through the and tired of the teams

5:54

and seeing if it is a liar

5:56

Be hired t guardians because I I

5:58

I I love good. P Team.

6:01

And. When you look at. Marquees.

6:04

Brown added to this team and you look

6:06

at Xavier Worthy added to this team and

6:08

you still have all the other cast of

6:10

characters you know, Possible Suspense and notwithstanding for

6:12

Rusty Rice. It

6:14

at all compiled up to where I

6:17

think that patted my home's is going

6:19

to have a bounce back Season statistically

6:21

obviously won the Superbowl but for fantasy

6:23

purposes. I. My more in on him especially

6:25

when you combine that with fact that because he had

6:27

a down year. He's. Not going to be like

6:29

last year he was in the second round of your draft.

6:32

Most. Quarterbacks:

6:34

That you you would define as a pocket

6:36

passer. Require.

6:38

An outlier to high and

6:40

touchdown season. Which. Often

6:43

times is difficult to throw into your staff

6:45

projections when you look at averages. So.

6:47

It's rare when a. Touchdown.

6:49

Dependent I have a quarterback ends up that high in

6:52

the rankings. My. Home's is very much.

6:54

Like. Worthy, much like Rodgers was

6:57

during his peak. Of. Projecting

6:59

those kind of years, But.

7:01

I haven't met three. My.

7:04

Ah surprise that it for in

7:06

six points morning. Which.

7:08

Was I was different? and then I've Evan

7:10

Engram sitting at three a tight and yeah

7:13

that one which you know is not part

7:15

of my brain know you're very anti ingram.

7:18

And that is surprising. I've

7:20

got editing room at my

7:22

tightened nine. At. The I I

7:24

I just look at I'd always her i

7:26

normally like to keep him yeah let you

7:28

know low in tied in one where does

7:30

where he doesn't matter no lo lo and

7:32

Titan one matters And so he's coming off

7:34

a season where he almost set the you

7:37

know reception record. Played. A lot

7:39

of games without Christian Kirchner underneath. Area

7:41

of the field where I think that

7:43

boost that him up. Obviously, there's a

7:46

ton of targets vacated here between you

7:48

know, the departures of They Jones and

7:50

Calvin Ridley, So if he he's he's

7:52

an interesting player to debate. Ah, whereas

7:54

Jaden Daniels on your first run through

7:57

when you talk about let's do the

7:59

rookies sir. Rookie Quarterbacks: Jaden Daniels,

8:01

Jane Daniels I was surprised he is

8:03

just outside. My topped off is my

8:05

quarterback. Thirteen fair without him and fourteen

8:08

when you have the ability to rush

8:10

for. You. Know

8:12

the ability to rush for a hundred fifty

8:14

yards and five plus rushing touchdowns. That's usually

8:16

going to be a top two of quarterback.

8:19

It's. Just hard to. You know we were never going to. you

8:21

know do in hurts. Ring. And

8:23

for fifteen touchdowns last year. You're

8:27

never going to project and a

8:29

number like that. And. So that's

8:31

why. Also, in the Uk we've got an upside.

8:34

Meter. In there so you can

8:36

see like not just like, here's what should

8:38

happen. Here's the most likely outcomes, but also

8:40

who's got the chance to just go nuclear?

8:43

Who can explode? Who are you willing to

8:45

take your shots on? And as added ten,

8:47

what's your upside for Jane did not attend.

8:49

Ah for Jaden Daniels won a play a

8:52

while you put. I have met eight. On.

8:55

The outside which is very high. Ah,

8:57

I have let me see I ever met Eight and

8:59

a Half So you suck. Know I am

9:01

the low end of the upside. Yeah I'm

9:04

to get the high end of your like

9:06

you got more upside and you do know

9:08

his You do feel that way and dogs

9:10

mathematically. Cannibal. Hims that?

9:12

eighteen? So.

9:14

Caleb Williams Ah I still

9:16

see with very. Very.

9:18

High Upside. Play. With

9:21

because of the weapons. And

9:23

it's the find themselves. Great Situation has as

9:25

much talent as anybody that's been coming in.

9:28

The only obvious difference for fantasies? He's not

9:30

the. Your five hundred plus

9:32

rushing yard type a guy because

9:34

fancy scoring is stupid unbroken for quarterbacks.

9:37

Where. They score more for running than I do for

9:39

passing for the exact same many yards. Is this always

9:41

unfair? You've got the very

9:43

succinctly prepared. It's still do we need

9:46

it down, just a drop. I

9:48

think I'm on a drop businesses where he

9:50

can just explain. A his disdain.

9:52

Yes, Not going to say no, I know

9:55

it's not going to say move on brother

9:57

as I've moved up. I play moved on

9:59

Ice good. Now has moved on but I

10:01

still look for you. Sometimes you need an agent

10:03

for teams and I will try to speak truth

10:06

into the darkness. Now we

10:08

didn't add testosterone levels to the rankings.

10:10

This you may outside meters and risk

10:12

meters of know. Hi. T.

10:15

Because that would be the Chargers this year,

10:17

right? But I saw you put us in

10:19

Herbert. yet I'm a little higher. Old Abby:

10:21

Yeah, Noble, you thought he was gonna be.

10:23

That was. definitely. May. Be

10:25

far more surprising the Paxman homes because.

10:28

right? Now government's top of quarterback and

10:30

obviously her for herber is. Very

10:33

talented real world quarterback, but he's

10:35

lost. Most. Of his weapons and as

10:37

a team it's gonna run the ball. So you

10:39

know for a pocket guy to really be up

10:41

there, you gotta have thirty five touchdowns. You don't

10:43

see him thrown thirty five touchdowns as here in

10:45

this system. With these weapons. But. You have

10:47

many top twelve I do. I haven't running the ball

10:50

quite a bit more. Well I I do as well.

10:52

I I think what people need to realizes. Of

10:55

when. You have rankings that go top

10:57

to bottom. Like to put her

10:59

in there that pushes other players out like a

11:01

Day Daniels or Us. A to or. Or.

11:04

A Jared Goff for or whatever

11:06

stafford. Ah, So. You.

11:09

Know. They can be misleading

11:11

at times when you have rankings ago

11:13

top to bottom because. I

11:16

was talking about this this morning. rookie

11:18

wide receivers, for example. My. Highest

11:20

ranked is Harrison and nine of got

11:22

neighbors and seventeen. And and

11:25

Roma Dunes a he's down in the

11:27

forties right now. But. That

11:29

doesn't mean that Roma Dunes is not can be

11:31

worthy of your roster. Discusses outside the Top Thirty

11:33

Six. A lot of the

11:35

times these players. Running backs, wide

11:38

receivers at the roof. You know when the rookies

11:40

they earn. Snaps. Opportunities.

11:43

Second, Half of the year can be a

11:45

lot stronger than the first half of the yourself.

11:47

There's nuance there, That's what Upside sectors into. So.

11:49

I just thought we'd walk through a little bit of

11:52

it. But. Yeah, I

11:54

kyle's pointing out since twenty fourteen. Three.

11:56

Point seven rookie wide receivers per season finishes

11:59

thought thirty said the options. So. Maybe

12:01

it's not a didn't A Maybe it's Mcconkey. I've

12:03

got maybe on Roman Wilson. Yeah, I'm done with

12:06

hard in my top thirty six right now. So.

12:08

I believe I've got three rookies right now.

12:10

My top thirty six, all of the. Player

12:14

by player statistical projections they launched

12:16

with the Utica on. June.

12:18

Best Ball primer comes out on June first

12:49

as well. Or I

12:51

quick question of the day. Jason Now boy.

12:56

This one comes from Marcus. Smart.

13:00

As with a k. Marcus. M A

13:02

R K U S Marcus. Smart.

13:05

How we spent over here? Well, He's.

13:08

From Germany opens your. Thanks.

13:10

For the great work do you guys believe in

13:13

charges? Wide Receiver Clinton Johnston. I. Don't get

13:15

why so many people seem to quit on him. Seems.

13:18

To put in a ton of work and a new

13:20

coaching staff could mean a fresh start. And

13:23

aren't off? The ton of work is correlating

13:25

to the video circulating right now of him

13:28

working out with Cardinals. Ricky. Seen: I'm Marvin

13:30

Harrison Junior High and don't have you seen

13:32

that yet seen that? Don't don't use. That's

13:34

a video of him physically exhausted. Seven? Yeah,

13:37

you guys go to the both are some

13:39

places like one of them. Looks.

13:41

Like a sensational super

13:43

route running. Gazelle.

13:46

And by compare here's been looks much better

13:48

is some meat meat? Maybe it's just by

13:51

comparison because you're running next the Marvin Harrison

13:53

Jr. but the quins on some does not

13:55

quite look as fluid. But

13:57

let's talk about Queen Johnson as lot of people over

13:59

said. Him and Dynasty leagues. Last

14:01

year had some. I

14:04

would say headline catching drops. The.

14:06

Kind of drugs that were played over and over

14:08

and over again on twitter. Where

14:11

people laughed and or consequential as

14:13

well. very much Yeah the or

14:15

When the Habit I I went

14:17

back and I I watched every

14:20

target and reception of Quinn Johnston.

14:23

Last. Season I heard tale of the. It.

14:25

Took eleven minutes. I

14:28

don't know if that's a lot, but I don't think

14:30

that it on a lot. No, that's not a lot.

14:32

That's the problem for continue. What did you see on

14:34

so. I say that because.

14:37

What? The film doesn't show. Is

14:39

every blaze not targeted? And.

14:42

There are a lot of those. His.

14:44

Targets for out run thirteen point seven

14:46

percent. That's thirty nine out of forty

14:48

two first round rookie wide receivers over

14:50

the last decade, so didn't get targeted

14:53

a lot. Low. Yards for out

14:55

run. Thirty three

14:57

out of forty two in target percentage.

15:00

And had opportunity with my coins going

15:02

down. I

15:05

will say this: I watched every single play that

15:07

he made on the entire year. every target, every

15:09

drop, Every. P I call. Several.

15:12

Of his drops. Came. On place

15:14

where it he did draw pass interference penalty

15:17

is. There. Were. Three

15:20

real bad. Real. Bad

15:22

drops. He. Did make

15:24

big plays. he made hands catches. Cross.

15:27

The middle. He made plays

15:29

down the field. Ah,

15:32

You. Know there were about shoulder throws and some report

15:35

he was building with. Just heard that I thought

15:37

were. Pretty

15:39

great place. Ah,

15:41

I'm. So. I thought

15:43

it was better than the dropped surveyed like

15:45

the story of of Opportunities and when he

15:47

met when he got them there were more

15:49

plays that he made then I thought he

15:51

did. But.

15:54

The question isn't going to be like that

15:56

should be that the given to me your

15:58

first on wide receivers makes a place. Yeah.

16:00

So my son to be. How many opportunities are you getting

16:02

to make them? You.

16:04

Know in in. Could. He be the one.

16:07

Okay so let me let me ask you this

16:09

to turn to ruin just like two seconds into

16:11

what you said. Your. First round

16:13

wide receiver. Let me give you a

16:15

hypothetical situation. Okay, you are a first

16:17

round wide receiver. You. Go

16:19

to a good quarterback. Yeah.

16:22

And you are the number two in Targets Like

16:24

you are set. your gets a little toward Madison.

16:27

Last year is an example of this year's rent.

16:29

Wide receiver goes to these a quarterback ease the

16:31

clear number two in the office but it like

16:33

he's not. On. The banshees on the field.

16:36

Given. Just that to nearest thing you not

16:38

a person Aqua Johnson, not Jordan Addison. What

16:41

stat line would you be expecting for

16:43

a first round once you were on

16:45

the field as the water to do

16:47

for good quarterback. Awesome! Class and

16:49

let me come up with an answer for yes.

16:53

I did it. So you're on the feel ball

16:55

all season long. Is. All season long

16:57

wedding. Want to seventy? Where would you.

17:00

You. My number one may be place own if I am of

17:02

the snaps and and what number would you need to be to

17:04

where he said I said okay with his his. Yeah.

17:06

I would say probably just

17:08

a. A. Hair above

17:10

what Jason did last year. Because.

17:13

I don't feel like Jason's rookie season was, but

17:15

is it was what like six sit on Evangelize

17:17

the about seven hundred fifty. Eight

17:19

hundred yards and is the seventeen games sees?

17:21

Yeah, So. Seven Hundred seven hundred

17:23

and Fifty a hundred yards. And

17:26

Sixty gets look at Fifty Five to

17:28

Sixty gets his. Let me give you

17:31

a sample of when Johnson. Now.

17:33

Quinton so got off to a slow start.

17:35

But also Mike Williams Gunfire with love Finn

17:37

is it wasn't for. The. Fittest

17:39

was without us and Herbert, So that's not

17:41

fair either. How can you got a rookie

17:43

year adding where it's not really fair? Your

17:45

your. Brand. New your first couple

17:47

games, right? First couple games of Justin Jefferson's

17:50

incredible rookie season. He didn't light. And.

17:52

You had Mike Williams their. The.

17:54

End of the year Know doesn't herbert. However,

17:57

there was a six game period. Where. He

17:59

was the number two. He. Was Mike

18:01

Williams was gone and Herbert was there six

18:03

games. And. He

18:05

has a Greek food. Here. Would

18:07

be his. And and for the

18:09

record he breed seventy four percent of those snapped

18:12

so he was on the he was the wide

18:14

receiver to for the steam sudden up real nice.

18:17

Oh, here's the total stat line. If

18:19

he played it, that's that address. For

18:21

standing games, it would have been fifty

18:23

three receptions. The have four five hundred

18:25

and four yards. And

18:27

three touchdowns. So.

18:30

That would believe that's not the end of the

18:32

world up he has been. I wonder what was

18:34

absolutely that? Which is not it's I will surprise.

18:36

Very underwhelming. I would. But

18:38

going jumping up this, you

18:40

know, sixty seven to seventy

18:43

receptions. Seven. Hundred a

18:45

hundred yards and put and. And

18:47

else five or six touchdowns at six

18:49

four to twenty. That. Doesn't

18:51

see me and unrealistic. Would know my

18:53

coins know Keenan Allen. Yeah, so. This

18:56

is why I got Lot Mcconkey as high as

18:58

I have him yet only be the highest their

19:00

right? Yes, not only because I believe in the

19:03

talent, but. When. Johnson has

19:05

a role to play and he still figuring out

19:07

how to do that well in the Nfl. His

19:09

you know going into second year I'm not betting

19:11

or. Why? I'm betting against Obama like

19:13

ones and adore I don't I don't think that's

19:15

a guarantee that he's you know, he gave you

19:17

matter. but you did grab the handle. Oh.

19:19

Yeah I'm like and you're like closing the door

19:22

our run but I'm like t can out for

19:24

so I'm gonna make it in the pro I

19:26

know I'm ready to set it. But.

19:28

The thing is is, he was not a target

19:31

earner. That's the biggest thing. He was on the

19:33

field for seventy four percent of stamps for that

19:35

stretch and did not earn enough targets. Like you

19:37

said, thirty night. that of. Forty Two

19:39

first round draft picks Atari Pereira. That.

19:42

Is. Objectively awful. I think

19:44

that lamb A county will be a target

19:46

earner. He's gonna be open in the spot

19:48

where Herbert is expecting. And so

19:51

that's why I I've got Lad Mccarthy

19:53

coming in here, being immediately. The. Number

19:55

One. You. Know to robbed of, got

19:57

quins answer with about one hundred targets and got lab or

19:59

com. That hundred twenty Five. It's a

20:01

good discussion. I. Haven't closed the

20:03

door on quit Johnston there weren't. There are

20:06

one thing I didn't get the odd from

20:08

watching every single place. There were

20:10

a number of plays where. He

20:12

did not. Achieve separation down

20:14

the field. thus know target as usual

20:16

and it was mostly intermediate routes. It

20:19

was it over the top, down the

20:21

sideline. some of the backdrop he actually

20:23

had separation on as blaze. And.

20:25

Then he did involve i'm not enough underneath

20:27

using the yards over the cats, but in

20:29

the intermediate routes, not enough separation. Kind.

20:32

Of Kelvin Benjamin ask in that sense and.

20:36

Percentage. Chance, he's their number one

20:38

fantasy producer. a wide receiver, I

20:41

have like twenty percent. Yeah.

20:44

Exactly so toy five percent or

20:46

use. Definitely not the leader. For.

20:48

All time favorite. I. Don't know if

20:50

that helps reduce or sally over. There are no papa

20:52

Josh had. Some. Dynasty investment in

20:55

going johnston. Have.

20:57

You are yet. Do you see what we just said

20:59

as a. Programs. Also worked

21:01

as an anti Glen Johnson. He's

21:04

on my team. I'm pro quo. But

21:07

it didn't They are. I'll get it in whatever

21:09

you wanted it to be okay with her. Now.

21:12

Ah, I'm going Johnson's not and. You

21:14

don't think know I will. There's there's there's

21:17

ways that we can paint and narratives we

21:19

can paint, but. Yeah.

21:23

I know you're probably right, Elissa,

21:25

Historical. Situation. Is

21:28

Not good. Dodson Like Josh Dodson.

21:30

Alec. Want fretwell. John.

21:33

Ross Nick, you'll harry jail or acre. those are

21:35

other. Rookie: First

21:37

rounders the that are on the field. I'm

21:39

not running targets. That's a promise a he

21:41

had opportunity if you sat behind someone. And

21:44

you got on the field for twenty thirty. Forty.

21:46

Fifty percent of snaps okay, but like. Yeah.

21:49

Yeah, it's good for them that they weren't the

21:51

brought bowers destination. Cause.

21:54

I think that would have made it easier

21:56

for me. Like the doorbell I've ever read.

would you like to do not a thinking

23:01

patterns and is anything like this isn't a

23:03

to as big as American A Nebraska he.

23:11

News. And notes from around the. Not

23:18

surprising to me, but the Steelers did

23:20

decline the fifth year option for running

23:22

back Naji Harris. A kind of

23:24

yourself. A little surprised. Because.

23:26

You thought they liked them more than they liked

23:29

him more than they should. The Essex one hundred

23:31

percent was not my opinion on our Gm that

23:33

I think he should have to figure out some.

23:35

I'm surprised that the Steelers didn't do it. you

23:38

know, Proud of you, Pittsburgh. Yep, yeah, I mean

23:40

that that they're of well run organization. And I

23:42

think it does tell you something about. Naji

23:45

that is Not. A

23:47

Roseanna look. You know, Nice.

23:50

He. Has not been

23:52

bad. Know. Naji

23:54

has not been what they thought he was. Both of

23:57

those things can be to at the same time. Last.

23:59

Year The one word was. The.

24:03

Better running back and basically every metric he

24:05

he had. A ton of targets. Explosive

24:08

Run rate was seven percent higher than

24:10

ours you harris. Not. He still

24:12

gets into the end zone. And you and

24:14

I talked before the show. Pittsburgh's.

24:16

Greatest accomplishment the draft was.

24:19

The office of line in upgrading what nausea

24:21

in general are and will have to work

24:23

with Flash Court our Patterson. Thank you. I'm

24:26

of the parser. snow. Yet.

24:28

M M. I got a quarterback upgrade it. Whatever

24:30

you want about Russell Wilson and Just Fields are

24:32

not great for I will but there. They.

24:35

Will threaten the difference more than Kenny picketed

24:37

and so that should help the the running

24:39

backs. Honestly, both of these guys Naji and

24:41

German Warren are huge winners. After the draft,

24:44

you know you want to talk about the

24:46

sneaky better in winners. It's not

24:48

that they just didn't draft a running back, it's

24:50

that they drafted know running back and totally improve

24:52

the office. One. I

24:54

this will probably the nicest thing I've ever said.

24:57

but if you want to get boring and

24:59

take nasi. Later. Because.

25:01

Nobody else wants to get boring and ah, probably Lpt. While

25:04

that is. Without. A doubt the nicest

25:06

thing you've ever said. Been know you've been at Nrg

25:08

as long as I can remember. He was the running

25:10

back for his rookie year running or fourteen. Two.

25:13

Years ago and running back twenty one this last

25:15

year Expense fun fact nobody is ever want to

25:17

fancy championship with. That

25:19

is actually an accurate because not to

25:21

harris is a second half of the

25:24

year. Champion. They definitely one one

25:26

the first year because I was when mischievous

25:28

to give him like nine thousand receptions do

25:30

the last two years. and what last year's

25:32

Rb eight over the last half or something

25:35

Young and even two years ago he was

25:37

unbelievable when it came to the second half

25:39

sox. The first half. But. The

25:41

the second half the was very good. Is.

25:43

Going and rb twenty two and espa. That's.

25:45

About where he bomb as gonna ask her if.

25:49

We. Have a bunch of. New. Players:

25:52

The new teams. Mediocre

25:58

signing of the weight. Odell

26:03

Beckham Jr. to the Dolphins. Dj

26:06

Shark to the Chargers.

26:09

Or way digits or put up better numbers than

26:11

all of those. Couldn't johnston season one numbers. So.

26:14

That one is suddenly capades. His dick is probably

26:16

better than Quinn Johnston. Yeah, Chase Claypool

26:18

to the Bills. Boston's.

26:21

Got to the ramps, And.

26:23

This morning were shot any. To.

26:26

The Panthers and he said was maybe Mile Sanders

26:28

is not long for their roster. Yeah me most

26:30

impressive dead cap to deal with if they were

26:32

to get rid of Mile Sanders. But the fact

26:34

that the draft to John of the Brooks they

26:36

weren't part of bringing Miles Sanders and Miles and

26:38

are still has Big name. They're grabbing retard Penny.

26:41

They've already got to be there. It's like. Ah

26:43

feel like you know maybe maybe a

26:46

team is knocking on Miles Sanders door?

26:48

Same Yamada. either deal with dead cap

26:50

or a dead. Not. Him back

26:52

because he is. He had Abbottabad. a

26:54

dull. Just. Remember

26:56

this time last off season. Frank.

27:00

Right was a head coach yeah of the

27:02

Carolina Panthers. A mile sanders

27:04

was supposed to get over four thousand and

27:07

targets. So. I want to. I will.

27:09

I wanted to bring this up his own.

27:11

Not here. but I will. Specific

27:14

to the Frank Reich when I was doing the standing

27:16

in a in own all of this. I

27:18

was looking at the Panthers situation.

27:21

And. I I like

27:24

Dave Canals. I like what he

27:26

did for Gino for Baker for

27:28

the this last year for some

27:31

reason. Why? yeah. But.

27:33

Last year at time I did like Frank. What

27:35

right? Like I I I thought Frank Reich was

27:37

a good hires good for the often says good

27:39

Off his mind he has had success of the

27:41

best that coast and thirty. Now.

27:44

It was bad. It was very very bad. But

27:46

I don't think that he had the weapons. Not

27:48

like the panthers got good when right was gone.

27:53

From. The top down. When.

27:55

Organizations are run poorly.

27:58

Whoever. The coaches. Is.

28:01

Set up for a harder time, it succeeded, this

28:03

is why my is a David Tablets is a

28:05

David Tepper. com at this is David Tapper at

28:07

the. I. Know he came in when he bought

28:09

the franchise was like all excited because he's got

28:11

plenty of money is gonna go hard, is going

28:13

to be aggressive. that's exciting. Look wear sunscreen, the

28:15

mattis be a wig with now we get his.

28:17

we're excited Menace be A comes in and buys

28:20

a team, wants throw money around to make big

28:22

trades and it doesn't always work out. Sometimes you

28:24

gotta get out of the way. David Pepper seems

28:26

very much in the way. The. So

28:28

like I like, they've canals like some of them

28:30

have they made. But if I have to bear

28:32

on whether France I succeeds or loses a lot

28:34

of times, I take that bet at the top.

28:36

I've done that for years and years and years

28:38

and years with browns and most of the time

28:41

it's worked out. With

28:43

death like you know so or tempering your

28:45

expectation off. At

28:48

us said so less. Proved

28:51

by experts. They said well done The it's tough

28:53

when you have a cozy have a lot of

28:56

confidence in the I'm is good Point Frank Reich,

28:58

you like them. Yeah. I mean,

29:00

maybe that was the fourth parties. just, you

29:02

know, not good. But. Hit

29:04

a good chance to so with tapper. Step in and.

29:07

All right, we have some mailbag questions to get

29:10

through which will be fine because we just sit

29:12

around King so have you want to talk about

29:14

29:16

look on into these players. The. Help.

30:41

off with Luke from Maryland. Say.

30:44

Bowlers the to loot from Maryland

30:46

and at a question about redraft

30:48

who Ppr. To. Do guys

30:50

have have been a better season.

30:52

Christian was in a murky brown.

30:55

Thanks. It's

30:58

a good question. Ah, Hollywood Brown if

31:00

you don't know now Kansas City Chiefs.

31:03

And. With.

31:06

The. Rookie: Vaporware. The coming

31:08

in and he in. Then. Mercy.

31:10

Rice having some time away from the

31:13

team, That.

31:16

Will be an opportunity. For.

31:18

Impact for Hollywood Brown. However,

31:21

I have Chris Martin. The.

31:24

Of him. Really? Because I know. I

31:27

know you're didn't regard and so yeah I

31:29

thought you would not have Christian Watson ahead

31:31

of. Brown. Simply because I thought you'd

31:33

have Christen Watson. Behind.

31:36

In the in the Packers packing orders

31:38

I mean Chris Watson as. For.

31:40

Fantasy Purposes of Unity: Your your

31:43

number one packer. Ah Person

31:45

Wants and Jaden Reader both very

31:47

close. I have read higher. Ah,

31:50

He had a nose for the in the last year. Army

31:53

Secrets and Watson Mr see significant amount of

31:55

time have very very close now. When did

31:57

he misses significant amount of time? Was it.

32:00

Every year you ever played. Correct. Okay guy,

32:02

no I haven't similar I I you know Hollywood

32:04

Brown. We want to my here in Arizona for

32:06

the last couple years. And.

32:10

Is. It's hard for me to imagine him coming into

32:12

Kansas City on a one year deal. With.

32:14

A bunch of other establish dink and dunk

32:16

players. With. Chelsea. And.

32:18

Rice and you know soon to be you

32:21

know Tony I'll be back and Watson I'll

32:23

be getting targets and. Know a gray

32:25

and. You. Know they be worthy getting

32:27

worked into the lineup like it's just hard

32:29

for me to look at that and say.

32:32

I was gonna be a monster. I am with

32:34

about one hundred targets. The. Promises

32:36

Petrie last year was fifty percent. He.

32:39

Was. Obviously.

32:42

Bad. Last year like you watch him on the

32:44

field. And he was the oh

32:46

the heel problem and so whatever excuses want

32:48

to say, but he was a bad wide

32:50

receiver, straight up. Was. Unhelpful and

32:52

there wasn't demand for him the sauces

32:54

and know at a well. which tells

32:56

you something, so it's either it was

32:58

the heel issue. And.

33:01

Maybe he's healthy because he's been a quality

33:03

receiver in the past. I he's been

33:05

a guy that has, you know, had good stretches.

33:08

You know, a great collegiate production,

33:10

obviously? And now he has the

33:12

better quarterback in a we might be in love

33:15

with love but he's no packs for homes. So

33:17

if you want to go tie breaker and take

33:19

Marquees Brown I'm fine with that. Gonna go tie

33:21

breaker Know. Well. Here's

33:23

the ironic part. like if you're worried about

33:25

the injury to Hollywood Brown. And.

33:28

Then you have to be worry about the injury

33:30

history. To. Christen Watson.

33:33

I'm worried about the i just think the better younger

33:35

player is the one I'm gonna go with. Middle.

33:38

Of the Brandon five years of playing fantasy football.

33:40

Because. that's what he the the place as if

33:42

upon his also that india he's a huge fans

33:45

probably. Forty. Six Thirty Four

33:47

Twenty Three Forty Six Fifty One.

33:51

So. I don't care what the reasoning

33:53

is, At. the end of the

33:55

at the end of the year he he any

33:57

that over one hundred targets for of five years

34:00

So something just seems to go awry

34:03

and his catch percentage isn't any 63 50 I

34:07

Don't know like he's gonna make big plays for them But

34:10

he's either new in the ass more than he is their new

34:12

you know number one target I

34:14

think it's closer on the MBS side so I have

34:16

Watson. I mean neither of these guys. I have super

34:18

high Yeah, neither of these guys. Do I have super

34:20

high either, but I'm gonna go Watson as well Watson

34:22

has been Extremely explosive in the

34:25

games. He's played the problem with Watson is

34:27

he hasn't played a lot of games you

34:29

know he missed Pretty

34:31

much half the season last year and

34:34

in that stretch off tissue issues Yeah, he

34:36

still had two top ten fantasy production Games

34:39

in that that short time he did play that his

34:41

rookie year he missed a bunch of that But when

34:43

he got on the field he was a dominator when

34:46

he had what he had like He

34:48

had like seven touchdowns and four

34:50

games or something insane so fantasy

34:52

points in a half point Looking

34:55

at Green Bay and where you have them on your

34:57

initial run-through. I am curious Because

35:00

we had this question about a month ago when we did

35:02

our early ranking shows And we hadn't started

35:04

them all out yet, and it was gut Where

35:07

are they stats wise what is your

35:09

order between the between the wide receiver

35:11

core? Yeah, Watson read Dobbs and Wicks

35:13

I would say so I've got Christian

35:15

Watson Ahead then

35:18

Jaden read then Dobbs Okay,

35:22

I have read Significantly ahead

35:24

then why then Watson then Wicks

35:27

then Dobbs so what is your

35:29

what's what's your? Target

35:31

situation there just just targets because obviously

35:34

Watson will be total targets a percentage

35:36

just total targets. I'm gonna seven for

35:38

Jaden read okay I've got him

35:40

at 89 which so you'll fewer than last year

35:42

a little are you making a little? Well

35:45

Jaden read last year his his big games were

35:47

when Christian Watson was gone so the splits when

35:49

you when you look at those it was just

35:54

different world of utilization for Jaden read

35:57

not that he was any worse of a player, but

36:00

But yeah, and there's a lot of mouths to

36:02

feed in this offense. Yep, I agree. That

36:05

one's one where I believe the talent of

36:08

Reid and Watson will bring

36:10

them to the top, but it's

36:13

an interesting offense. It

36:16

might be, like their offense could be better than Kansas

36:19

City's for sure. Kansas City's

36:21

got a really good defense. I

36:24

think that the Green Bay offense could be a better

36:26

offense. That's weird to say.

36:28

I know. I think that I wanted to

36:30

be like, ew, you're so stupid. Right. I

36:32

think it's true. They really could be. Instagram

36:35

question from Brooke Cifu says, thoughts on Johan

36:38

Dodson with the new quarterback? Last

36:41

year he got his cardio in, 635 routes run. That

36:45

is the fifth most run routes

36:48

in the NFL. You

36:51

wouldn't have known it. That's not a full-time player. That's

36:53

a super full-time player. Four

36:56

touchdowns on the year. Four finishes

36:58

in the top 40. 49

37:02

receptions. I had a hard time with them. You

37:05

look at the depth chart at wide receiver

37:07

and you're like, Dodson has to do something.

37:09

Like if Jane Daniels is anything, Dodson has

37:11

to have some production. Curtis

37:14

Samuel had over 100 targets, whatever it was, 119

37:16

last year. He's gone.

37:18

Yeah, Luke McCaffrey is a day two pick

37:21

barely. It was like the supplemental day two.

37:25

He's literally listed on the depth chart as the third

37:27

wide receiver right now. Yeah,

37:29

so I've got him as the third. Johan

37:33

Dodson will be very, very involved.

37:35

He's obviously going to be running routes. The question is, will he

37:38

be targeted? Because he wasn't last

37:40

year and he was his rookie season. How

37:42

many targets did you give him? I

37:44

got him at 89. So, looky there. And

37:47

not as many catches as targets, that's for sure.

37:50

In the end, don't hear what I'm not

37:52

saying, 90 targets is a good amount of targets. I've got

37:54

him as my very not so nice wide receiver 69. So

37:57

I'm not a huge believer. Painful.

38:00

What? Happened there. Because. From a

38:03

promising perspective as a rookie he he came in

38:05

on fire Double digit touchdowns what am I as

38:07

if you take a nap and he said you

38:09

know what before the season. I'm

38:11

going to tell you that. They're. Going to throw

38:13

the ball more? never every team missile. I

38:15

wouldn't have believed you. but okay I'll say I'll

38:18

let me let me go with that mental exercise

38:20

will throw the ball more than any team in

38:22

football. he had seven touchdowns in is written August

38:24

Seven Yeah in his rookie year it but only

38:26

plane twelve games. Or

38:28

a voicemail question. How this is

38:31

Victoria from Maryland? I was wondering

38:33

if you guys start testing feals

38:35

of the a full time starter

38:37

or Aaron Rodgers move attire, which

38:39

one's gonna happen? First things My

38:42

As Officer. Okay so

38:44

I question kind of changed on

38:46

a ah. Justice.

38:49

Field which will happen for is feels as

38:51

a full time starter and Rogers retirement. I'm

38:54

gonna go Rodgers or Time. I. Don't think just

38:56

some fields will be a full time starter. Know.

38:58

What do you mean by that demand? Are you

39:00

going to get him or lines? No Sense. Because

39:02

fulltime full time Starter Them for a week. Full

39:04

time starter is. Going. Into the season

39:06

that is there. Clear started and even if

39:08

he doesn't play the whole season but that's

39:11

what Assange yeah like a reminder and Carolina

39:13

started that way. interact with him and Marcus

39:15

Mario to in Atlanta. Got a chance. Those

39:17

are what your dreams are right now for.

39:19

Right now we're. Ah, I'm addicted.

39:21

Dream to to be honest and he's he's

39:23

This is last year the deal resident a

39:25

necessity to pick up the fifth year so

39:27

he's gonna be of unrestricted free agent. No

39:29

matter how good he plays a Sears I

39:31

can be a franchise type of player. So.

39:34

That means. The. Best case for

39:36

feals. Is that they split time

39:38

this year or or or whether because of

39:40

play from Russell Wilson or because of injury

39:43

to Russell Wilson Fields comes in and is

39:45

very very good. Wins games with the Steelers.

39:47

the gets the contract be the Steelers starter

39:49

next year. That's. The only

39:52

path. Rodgers.

39:54

Retirement I got. I'm gong. I agree.

39:56

Rodgers retirements. Ah, or another voice

39:58

mail. Or. Three boys the. The guy

40:00

that I have a question for you guys I

40:02

was wondering what are some of the biggest rules?

40:04

Are your favorite rules around? Cheaper? Leave. I'm

40:07

thinking about doing a keeper league of

40:09

my friends. I've only done Dynasty so

40:11

far. sizes wondering why your guys' opinions

40:13

are on. Kind. Of the rules and stuff.

40:16

And how you go about starting Keep Really

40:18

Thanks! Everybody I've

40:20

ever explained are keeper league to really

40:22

enjoys the format said we want to

40:25

get into that everybody have ever played

40:27

with. Our key performance loves playing the

40:29

format so there's all there's a thousand

40:31

ways to play. Keep a leash. When

40:34

we first started our league which is going into your

40:36

seventeen I believe. We. Had

40:38

on you could just take. Three.

40:41

Keepers you could keep on for a certain amount

40:43

of years maximum. And. They could be

40:45

at any position in given that and I was

40:47

there was it? You don't You don't lose a

40:49

certain draft pick for the player you know it's

40:51

not based on around you gotta mrs who's your

40:53

three favorite players from your team you get keep

40:55

him can't keep were more three years but what

40:57

happened is. What?

40:59

Damien Tomlinson happen in and guys

41:01

you know to stalking running backs

41:03

and hoarding. They varied everybody person

41:05

that would reset their keepers number

41:08

so that they were there permanently.

41:11

And we decided to do something different. That.

41:13

I'll explain anything. It introduced a new

41:15

fun day of the year. For.

41:18

The league. And. What we did as

41:20

we we have one. Franchise.

41:23

Player so you would consider that to be the. You.

41:25

Know the king of the keeper so to speak.

41:27

the number one franchise player that players locked on

41:29

your team. If you've got Christian Mccaffrey, you want

41:32

to have a next year you can franchise and

41:34

you just. Com your franchise player.

41:36

Boom! He's on your roster next year! You.

41:38

Then select three more players from your hint

41:41

of season roster. They must

41:43

not match the position of your franchise

41:45

player of you franchise Christian Mccaffrey. And

41:48

you had Breeze on your team. Use

41:50

my is not available correct and so

41:52

then. Those three players go into what's

41:54

called the Keeper lottery for your team. And

41:56

we have a special day every year. That. we

41:58

jump on zuma people in person and

42:01

literally your keeper lottery, its name's out of a hat.

42:03

Two of them go to your team, back

42:06

to your roster, one goes into the draft.

42:09

So you could take a risk like Jason did

42:11

this year. He wanted to... I put

42:13

Breeze in my lottery. Yeah, because you had a couple running

42:15

backs and you wanted the chance to keep them both of

42:17

them. And

42:20

so that day's really fun every year

42:22

and it means that some really big talent drops back

42:24

into the draft. Somebody lost some... Very cool. And

42:27

Jamar Chase this year. So big

42:29

players go back into the draft. In

42:31

fact, Al Borland, sitting back

42:33

there in Deuces Valley, was on a

42:36

nice five year run of losing the best

42:38

player. He would take a chance every year

42:40

and that player would always go back

42:42

in the draft. What was it? Mark Andrews, Nick

42:44

Chubb? I can't remember all of them, but yeah, those

42:46

were two of them. And then this year you finally

42:48

lucked out. But that's how we do it

42:50

in our keeper league. Yeah, we had Justin Jefferson in

42:52

the lottery this year. We got to keep him. Yeah,

42:54

maybe stop putting such good players in the lottery, bro.

42:58

I had to franchise B-Junk. Yeah, all right,

43:01

your team's pretty good. But Al was also

43:03

a gambler. He is. He wants the upside.

43:05

Well, we'll take a quick break, come back

43:07

with some more questions. And I

43:10

know Kyle's going to put up an article

43:12

on the website, thefantasyfootballers.com that details our

43:15

Ballers League of Record settings, which

43:17

is that three keeper lottery plus

43:19

the one franchise. Everybody

43:21

gets three back on their team, but

43:24

it's fun. It's a fun way to do it. All

43:35

right, this question comes from

43:37

Kingtom33. Who is the number

43:40

one tight end off the board in 2024

43:42

in a standard scoring league? In

43:45

a standard scoring league? Yeah, it's Kelsey. Yeah,

43:48

it's Kelsey. Yeah, for sure. You're

43:50

just looking at, in a standard scoring league,

43:52

you're really, really touchdown focused. And yes,

43:54

Sam LaPorta had 10 touchdowns as a

43:57

rookie. That's great. But his

43:59

utilization? You know, a lot of

44:01

times you'll see all sorts of reports on

44:04

what the expected touchdowns would be for

44:06

a player based on where they were

44:08

targeted on the field. And he very

44:10

much outproduced what his expectation was. You've

44:12

got Travis Kelsey getting the ball thrown too by

44:15

Patrick Mahomes getting little tap passes near the goal

44:17

line. I clearly put all my money

44:19

on him having the most touchdowns this year. All

44:22

right, I'm really excited about this next question

44:24

because it's going to spawn another discussion. Kevin

44:27

L. writes in, he says, if Kendre Miller was

44:29

in this year's rookie class, where would he

44:33

fit into the rankings wise compared to the

44:35

other running backs? So you're talking Benson and

44:37

Brooks and Coram, Marshawn Lloyd, Jaylen

44:39

Wright. He's

44:41

just 21 years old. He

44:44

missed nine games as a rookie, so he's kind of a

44:46

rookie again. Kendre

44:49

Miller. And he's very, very talented. New Orleans

44:51

Saints. New Orleans Saints behind Alvin

44:53

Kamara. To me, there's still the

44:55

round two running backs in John and the

44:57

Brooks. I

44:59

guess Trey Benson was a third rounder, right?

45:02

So you've got to talk about Trey

45:04

Benson, Blake Coram, Marshawn Lloyd. These

45:07

are day two backs who are

45:09

behind incumbents. And that is what

45:12

Kendre Miller is. He's a day two

45:14

back behind Alvin Kamara. So he's in that

45:16

tier. I would certainly put

45:18

him ahead of the Jaylen Rites, Ray

45:20

Davises, those types. So I, yeah,

45:22

and Jamal Williams still rumbling around there too.

45:25

I watched one other player's entirety

45:27

of their snaps, other

45:29

than Quentin Johnson, and who's Kendre Miller. So I watched every

45:31

play he made for the Saints all of last year. I

45:33

did like what I saw. Yeah, because I've seen it, and

45:35

it's good. Jonathan Brooks, I have

45:37

at 36 right now. Kendre Miller at 41. Benson

45:40

at 44. Coram at 45. So

45:43

to put it in, my rankings,

45:45

Kendre Miller is ahead of Benson and Coram. And

45:48

Lloyd. And Ray Davises. But

45:50

for dynasty perspective, he's obviously... I think Kendre Miller... He might

45:52

be as young as a rookie, but he's one year less

45:54

on his contract. Alvin

45:57

Kamara ran for 3.9 yards a carry last year. And

46:01

he was, and Alva Camara as a runner

46:03

on the ground, an inefficient runner on the

46:05

ground, was so much better than Jamal Williams.

46:07

Jamal Williams is done. That

46:10

little fun thing, it's over.

46:12

Yeah, yeah, he scored like one time. Rashad

46:14

White averaged 3.6 on the ground last year.

46:16

So I'm saying that because

46:18

Rashad White was the RB7, Camara was

46:20

essentially a top five, top six guy

46:23

when he came back. Points per game, for sure. And

46:25

so both of those players, they don't

46:27

have to average high yards per carry to be the workhorse

46:29

that gets all the passing game work and be great. But

46:33

I'm telling, like if Alvin Camara went down, like Kendra

46:35

Miller can catch the football. Kendra Miller

46:38

is, I rarely saw him go

46:40

backwards. He

46:42

had explosive plays in the passing game. He's

46:45

a very good player. He was disrupted by injury. I

46:47

love him. And I just don't, I think from a

46:49

sleeper, like you, we can talk about it right now.

46:51

Mike's not here. Like Kendra Miller and

46:53

the sleeper list on the UDK. For sure. For

46:55

sure he should be there. Now, so the

46:58

question here is like if he was in this year's

47:00

rookie draft, I know for sure he's behind John of

47:02

the Brooks, Trey Benson to me. Those

47:04

two guys to me are ahead. Gotcha. Yeah,

47:06

to get back on the question. Yeah, I would. Would

47:09

you, I know John of the Brooks will be ahead of

47:11

him for you. I don't think I'd put, I think I'd

47:13

put Marshawn Lloyd ahead of him. Okay,

47:15

Marshawn Lloyd, is Trey Benson ahead of him? Okay, me too.

47:18

Yeah. So then it's Blake Quorum, Marshawn Lloyd and

47:21

Kendra Miller. Yeah, and

47:23

then I think Quorum and Wright and Davis

47:25

and them are behind him. I liked Kendra

47:27

Miller's film more than either Quorum or Lloyd.

47:30

So I would go Kendra Miller behind Benson.

47:33

Okay. There you go. So

47:35

either three or four. Yeah. To answer

47:37

the question. All right. Another.

47:41

It was a great dynasty target too.

47:43

Yeah. Right now like a trade for target. Had

47:45

a lousy rookie season. No one's like, oh my

47:48

gosh, so excited for him right now. All

47:51

right. Next question from

47:53

Jason on X says when should you

47:55

do your rookie draft in dynasty? So

47:59

You obviously. We wait until after

48:01

the Nfl draft. Some people don't but that so

48:03

insane. I mean you get guys like Roy Franklin

48:05

born in the first round where you know once

48:07

I fall the draft. There's no

48:09

reason to make it as a team. Play.

48:12

That way so do it after the Nfl draft a most

48:14

the league's than I'm in. A. Rookie

48:16

dresser over they are after the Nfl

48:18

draft and immediately after the Nfl draft.

48:20

It's like. That. Thing is over

48:22

we give you like a a chance to go

48:25

to sleep. Take a breath, wake

48:27

up and go use a breed

48:29

during sleep. Either of us di

48:31

di da get a machine. It's

48:33

yeah, it's self. He

48:35

get but to be clear that not a yum. See.

48:37

Fab. You get into bed at? That's right.

48:40

That's right for intubation. I just. I.

48:42

Prefer enjoy the feeling under the words

48:44

pure oxygen. Ah yes so you know

48:46

I think you can laugh away as

48:49

long as you want you can go

48:51

all the way up until it's draft

48:53

season for else you know is for

48:55

for redraft leagues but. The.

48:57

Point of a dynasty league. Is.

48:59

To have fun in the Ossies. So for me, I'm doing

49:02

it right after the Nfl draft. Are

49:05

I Tyson imported Year goodness Help me

49:07

find the Chargers Rb one. Amongst.

49:11

Gas. And Dobbins in the The

49:13

Dell. Sassoon? Yes, yes. Realises Spiller

49:15

still there. And Jump Patterson, an

49:17

alleged Dodson is really, really, really

49:20

easy. I mean, it's it's the

49:22

Gosper, it's ah. it's absolutely the

49:24

Gospels Vid Elsa Soon have. Been

49:28

also soon is a is an

49:30

exciting rookie prospect simply because of

49:32

his. Name is because of

49:35

sympathy with his. Landing spot is a six

49:37

around presidency around or like that people get

49:39

every year most of these six round picks

49:41

a go to a good spot your so

49:43

excited for. And they don't do

49:45

jack squat and. Bit. Else assumes

49:48

not doing jack squat more than likely. Ah,

49:51

The company for Dallas his name. But

49:53

we com, but I'd as soon passed away

49:55

at the age of eighty four and twenty

49:57

twelve. A real that else has this

49:59

and. Honorary you can take the

50:01

name yeah you gotta President offers

50:04

grabs we honors you've it. Also

50:06

soon. So

50:09

that the that atop the name of

50:11

also have online is of a human

50:13

oh no that negotiators me the new

50:15

now they also soon. Yeah. That's

50:17

pretty good, especially for someone that was like

50:19

a salon. Guy. Like he did

50:22

like Sam. like the Del Sur Suda.

50:24

That. C B of is real magazine

50:26

name and unless it's spectacular up the

50:28

real question about this backfield: as

50:31

a kid op. It's because. Taken Dobbins

50:33

is either healthy or he isn't that

50:35

the? That's it. He. If you

50:37

know how it's easy, line a little or allah.

50:40

They. Paid him nothing he has

50:42

fifty thousand dollars and gearing to

50:44

sexist. why is it is guaranteed

50:46

money was reported as fifty thousand

50:48

dollars Fifty thousand but yet know

50:50

I am a hundred Thus like

50:52

this. Fifty. K Yeah, two,

50:54

one Zero. And then as an arma

50:56

that's the kind of caught that you

50:58

cut him you don't even know. Exact.

51:01

You don't notice it on the bus to see

51:03

by A also it works in both directions right?

51:05

It says that this is not an investment they're

51:07

making and him to be something special. But.

51:10

It also costs them absolutely nothing to move on,

51:12

so if he doesn't have it, Expect them

51:14

to be cut. Which. Means if he

51:16

makes the roster. He. Might be

51:18

okay and if both of these guys are healthy of

51:20

take it out of the goat. Gus Edwards are. Just.

51:24

They're ready to go there, who they

51:26

are, At full strength.

51:29

Then. Dinners and argument. The Take a Dobbins is ahead

51:31

of them. take it up as was ahead of them

51:33

when they were both healthy on the same run out

51:35

with. You. Know we have a Roman.

51:38

By the question is, how could he be

51:40

healthy after and a killer? Isn't I this

51:43

pillar he is? I'm going to your three.

51:45

He's averaged two point, three, two point, six

51:47

yards carrying his opportunities as impressive. You.

51:52

Yeah I mean is that this is another

51:54

one of those. You. Know highly

51:56

touted running backs who fell in

51:58

the draft. Most of

52:00

the time highly touted running backs of

52:02

fall in the draft. Do.

52:05

Not work out. Braylon Edwards a brain

52:07

when Alan. I'm I have

52:09

no Braylon else got trouble. Yeah, it's

52:11

a while and plus he's behind Brie

52:14

so you'd sometimes you just gotta

52:16

let these guys go. And there are

52:18

hits Sometimes. For. Sure ah

52:20

that you know they're A, but they are

52:22

the outliers and they are the ten percent.

52:25

Is. Of you're making the bat, you want to be on

52:27

the ninety percent site, Navid down and you going to get

52:29

tired? Williams. But. Karen Williams was.

52:31

So. When we large nine hunter you know you

52:34

know he wasn't as far but third or fourth

52:36

round yeah but like you know care and so

52:38

late in the draft where you just you know

52:40

he was dead to us but the people that

52:42

have Karen on their teams now. They're.

52:44

Not even the people who drafted him in the

52:46

rookie draft season waivers. Yeah, you pick them up.

52:49

Or. I will cause it. I hear Jeff once

52:51

in a two questions why Sandy rarely on

52:53

the Dynasty show. In. When doing

52:55

rookie dress. Do. You do

52:57

Nfl draft or snake draft style.

53:00

Rookie: Dresser all Nfl draft style because it's

53:03

a dynasty and you've got like the entire

53:05

roster together when you're doing a redress like

53:07

a start up. If if you're doing a

53:09

dynasty, start up. Than. A snake. To.

53:12

Make it even. But once these rosters

53:15

are established, And. It you

53:17

know you've got to build it year after year after

53:19

year the worst team gets the best pick in each

53:21

round. Oh you know, in

53:23

in in reverse order. The. All

53:25

the way through the toothpick. Why?

53:28

Aren't you on the lie down as as of

53:30

the reason I don't like Nfl draft science roughly

53:32

that on I'm a snake only man. yeah you

53:34

don't owe me a ride. The snake Big snake.

53:36

I. Know. I

53:38

mean, they'd knock. We've got to. Excellent

53:41

Dynasty. Gentlemen and Cobb

53:43

organ only. Matthew bats and we wanted have

53:45

a baller on there and said Jason and

53:47

Mike have taken the mantle most often. I

53:49

have had occasional appearances and I'm happy to

53:52

continue to do so. Yeah, you're the many

53:54

cooks in one. Kids mean you're just the

53:56

like break glass case of emergency type got?

53:58

Yeah, I'm here when. You know, Jesus.

54:01

Tommy Hearns, he's gotta go home. Made

54:04

fun of her heart rate and should

54:06

I heard go home rather? Ah, Okay,

54:08
