0:13

mean, incredible episode coming your way. The

0:15

Detroit Lions, how high are they in

0:17

our rankings? That's Houston Texans. It's easy

0:19

to get excited, but how excited should

0:21

we be? The offense that I can't

0:24

stop thinking about and Scott Pienowski is

0:26

not going to talk me down from

0:28

all of that more coming up on

1:47

Tuesday, May 7th. I'm Matt Harmon. Welcome to

1:49

the Yahoo Fantasy Football Show. It is a

1:52

hell of a day to talk ball. Enjoying

1:54

me to do just that is Scott

1:56

Pienowski. Scott, buddy, it's been too long.

1:58

How are things? Things are

2:01

great, man. I'm excited to talk to

2:03

you today. Look, as people know,

2:05

I work at Yahoo. I cover a lot of

2:07

different sports. I'm not just a football guy. So

2:10

all that great work you did, walking

2:12

up to the draft, getting us through

2:14

the draft, you know, I was involved

2:16

on a limited basis. I did some draft coverage the

2:18

week of, but I've been doing a ton

2:20

of baseball. I've been doing a little bit of hockey, did

2:23

some March Madness with Frank Schwab for a few weeks. So

2:25

to me, like a lot of people

2:28

probably, the fantasy season starts

2:30

when the draft happens and there's

2:32

no more speculating. Where are these quarterbacks going?

2:34

Where is Marvin Harrison going? You know, is

2:36

the running back market, is it really

2:38

gonna get pushed back as far as we think it might?

2:41

Now we have everybody, basically,

2:43

all the chairs have been filled. I mean, there'll

2:45

be some surprise cuts along the way and injuries

2:47

and stuff like that, but we know where people

2:49

are playing and it's time

2:51

to get excited. As you know, it was

2:54

a legendary draft. All these quarterbacks taken, all

2:56

these ecosystems changed, and to me,

3:00

now I'm starting to get into some leagues. I

3:03

picked my Scott Fish slot, I'm

3:05

in the movie and all that stuff. So again,

3:08

you're a diehard 12 month, 365

3:12

day a year football sicko. I

3:15

am like a seven or eight month sicko.

3:17

My sicko season basically starts today. Yeah,

3:20

you're a much more versatile man than

3:22

I am, Scott Pinowski, but you're right.

3:24

This is really where the fantasy

3:26

season begins for most people because,

3:28

as you perfectly said, the butts

3:31

are in the seats here. This is

3:33

where most people are gonna be, most ecosystems

3:35

are set, and that's a

3:37

great time to kind of get this

3:39

kicked off, Scott, with your favorite exercise

3:41

here, going one through 32,

3:45

the NFL fantasy team power

3:47

rankings. Now these are not power

3:50

rankings, like the who's gonna be the best team in

3:52

the NFL, the worst team in the

3:54

NFL, it's not that exercise. This is specifically, Scott,

3:56

I mean, the best way to probably say it

3:58

is my favorite word. ecosystem, right? Which

4:00

you already used so far. So you're,

4:02

you're as sharp as ever in terms

4:05

of the podcast lingo here, Scott. Basically,

4:08

these are one to 32, the best ecosystems to invest

4:11

in in fantasy football. Is that the is that

4:13

the best way to sort of table set here?

4:15

That's a good way to say it. Or if

4:17

I said to you, I'll give you all the

4:19

players on one team, what team would you take?

4:21

Probably not the New England Patriots, probably not the

4:23

Carolina Panthers, you might want the San Francisco 49ers,

4:25

you might want the Eagles. And

4:27

I tip my hat to you, Matt, because this is

4:30

the piece I used to do before the season started.

4:33

And you said last year, you know, are you

4:35

going to do that at some point in the spring and our

4:38

editor, Jason Kamlakkale, that's a great idea. Yeah,

4:40

let's do that. In fact, Jason's mad at

4:42

me because when he saw the preliminary list,

4:45

he saw that I had the Bears above the

4:47

Packers, he's all excited. And I realized, no, that's

4:49

actually not how I feel. I'd rather have another

4:51

next to each other. And I don't know, I

4:54

don't know that we're going to talk Bears today

4:56

because Andy Barron seems to have a, you know,

4:58

lockdown on everything. Kayla Williams right now, which

5:00

is fine with me. But yeah,

5:03

it's basically who has the most fantasy juice,

5:06

which is whether you want to say which is the ecosystems

5:08

we want to draft into which players are going to get

5:11

command the most draft capital when those

5:13

drafts start starting in earnest July, August,

5:15

and some people are drafting right now,

5:18

it's basically who, which teams

5:20

are the most fun for fantasy, even

5:22

a little bit of rewatchability that comes

5:24

into it to do is like

5:26

if a team's playing on Monday night, I'm thrilled to

5:28

watch that team and versus some

5:30

of these other teams are the classic, you know, Oh,

5:33

okay, we have Tennessee and Caroline on a Thursday night,

5:35

I may not be as excited though. I

5:37

will say this though, Matt, as we're ready

5:39

to delve into this, with

5:41

the six quarterbacks getting drafted in the first

5:44

round, and obviously not everybody's gonna play right

5:46

away. And a little bit of the musical chairs, I

5:49

found more optimism on this list

5:51

than normally, I'm looking like, Oh,

5:53

my God, there's like 13 teams

5:56

I don't want any part of right now, there's like five

5:58

or six teams, I'm probably trying to steer away from from,

6:00

I found myself ranking some offenses. I like a

6:03

fair amount, like in the high teens or in

6:05

the low twenties. And I'm like, geez, I could

6:07

see things popping for this team. One or two

6:09

things need to go right. They need to find

6:11

a left tackle. They don't have a reliable

6:13

over the middle receiver. You know, some teams don't know

6:16

where their quarterback is stuff like that. But this

6:18

feels more of an optimistic

6:21

middle of May listing than maybe it

6:23

might've been in prior seasons. I

6:26

am super curious, you know, just giving your list

6:28

kind of a once over before jumping on the

6:30

pod here. I, I agreed with

6:32

your sentiment there that there's

6:35

a lot of pretty good offenses in the league. There's

6:37

a lot of potentially pretty good at ecosystems. We know

6:39

it won't work out that way, right? We know that

6:41

by October, November, when we're setting lineups,

6:43

there's not going to be that many ecosystems that

6:45

truly hit the high end of the range of

6:47

outcomes. There's going to be some of these teams

6:49

that turn it, whether it's injuries or just, it

6:52

didn't work out the way we thought, you know,

6:54

a rookie quarterback doesn't play up to standard, a

6:56

veteran changing teams is not as good

6:58

as we thought it's not going to work out that way.

7:00

The picture is not going to be optimistic. So I'm curious,

7:02

Scott, when we go through this, where we

7:04

can sort of, you know, spot maybe

7:07

some tier breaks or, or just like

7:09

generally where we sort of finally arrive at

7:11

a point, because I'm telling you, I get down to 18, 19,

7:13

20 on your list

7:15

and I'm like, you know what? These teams are actually not

7:17

too bad. I could see it working out, but let's

7:19

waste no more time. Let's, let's get into this here. I

7:22

just want to go five by five, like

7:24

groups of five year talking through your

7:28

fantasy team power rankings. Now, Scott wants

7:30

me to mention that these are written

7:32

in pencil right now. Um, he is,

7:34

this is Scott and I are

7:36

basically talking through the rough draft of this. He is going

7:39

to have an article version. I appreciate you, you know, saying

7:41

that you tip your hat to me for basically giving you

7:43

more work to do. Uh, inspiring our

7:45

boss to give you more work, Scott. So

7:47

I appreciate you saying that nicely, but Scott's

7:49

going to have the written version of this

7:52

on the website. So make sure you check

7:54

that out. Well, let's call it by the

7:56

end of the week, but let's jump into

7:58

here into the first five teams. on

8:00

your list, Scott Pinowski. Number

8:02

one, San Francisco 49ers. Number

8:04

two, Philadelphia Eagles. Number three,

8:06

Baltimore Ravens. Number four, Detroit

8:08

Lions. Number five, Miami

8:10

Dolphins. So Scott, I throw those five teams

8:13

at you here. I don't think

8:15

there's a ton of surprises, but maybe

8:17

which two or three teams here really stand out to you

8:19

that you want to flesh out a little. Yeah,

8:22

I want to say that I could have

8:24

gone San Francisco, Philadelphia and either order and

8:26

I'm really curious to see what Squam

8:28

Barkley has left in the tank. He wasn't

8:31

too happy about the way the Giants had done. We're all

8:33

set with you. Go wherever you want to go. So he

8:35

basically takes a very short ride to Philadelphia and those

8:38

would be interesting when they match up twice a year.

8:40

If you want to rank Philadelphia first, I don't have

8:42

a problem with it. We all know

8:44

how great the Nino system is. Brock Prody

8:46

is good enough. He's surrounded by Shanahan and

8:48

he's a wonderful skill talent. I don't think

8:50

anybody's tuning in today to figure out, hey,

8:52

the 49ers any good? The

8:54

Eagles maybe have a little bit more just intrigue

8:57

because it's been bigger piece changes and I

9:00

guess things would really change in San Francisco

9:02

if they make a trade. I don't think

9:04

they're going to, but they did draft receivers.

9:06

So it's a possibility. We can't discount

9:08

it. The team I want to

9:10

talk about, Baltimore, there's a lot to talk about with

9:12

Baltimore, but Detroit and look,

9:14

I live, I've lived in the Detroit area for

9:16

over 20 years now. They just had the NFL

9:19

draft, the throng of humanity went well. There's going

9:21

to be more big events coming

9:23

to Detroit at the Renaissance time in Detroit.

9:25

Red Wings just missed the playoffs. The Tigers have a

9:27

winning record this year and we saw last year the

9:30

Lions coming just a couple of plays away from

9:32

going to the Super Bowl. They really argue

9:34

they should have won that game. Everything kind

9:36

of went wrong for them in the second

9:38

half, but what happens usually to teams like

9:40

that is they get raided. They get raided

9:42

in free agency. Their coaching staffs get raided.

9:44

None of that happened. The Lions are

9:46

bringing the band back together, which

9:49

is Sun God, Armand

9:52

Ross, St. Brown in the first round. Samuel

9:55

Porter's the consensus number one tight end on

9:58

Everybody's Yahoo ranks, which are interrupted. Them

10:00

you you can go through Islam. It's next

10:02

to report as it got the Chelsea next

10:04

to him. Now one one one one. Were.

10:06

All recommend you try that. I'm. Good

10:09

backfield baby. This is a year

10:11

James Waves of Jamison Williams breaks

10:13

out. And they keep offensive coordinator

10:15

Ben Johnson which is I thought for sure

10:17

when the season ended somebody's gonna hire this

10:20

guy or. Maybe he didn't find the

10:22

right fit. Maybe the interview? Well I mean why

10:24

didn't he get somebody shops at that that's open

10:26

to speculation? I don't care. I'm

10:28

just glad. That we get the run

10:30

this back now. It's. Hard to

10:32

win in the Nfl and the lines can have

10:34

another successful year knock it anywhere close. The Nfc

10:36

Championship game is a lot of good teams in

10:38

the end of see but. I

10:41

can't wait to draft Ahmed Rashid Brown of

10:43

the first round. I can't wait to grab

10:45

pieces of this backfield. Jared Goff is a

10:47

good enough quarterback if you're going cheap on

10:49

quarterback in a really good quarterback to and

10:51

superflous. I have no Hop

10:53

Fry supporter because we're so used to Ricky

10:55

Titans not doing much. The the guy was

10:58

fantastic. A little bit touchdown heavy that makes

11:00

us nervous but. I'm. A I'm them in

11:02

a rank of aggressively I'm affiliate mean I end up

11:04

with a lotta Laporta shares. I just usually don't go

11:06

for the vanity tight and. But. This

11:08

is that often to has everything to the point

11:10

that if Jamison Williams pops it almost feel the

11:12

cherry on the top of Sunday. I think this

11:15

is a great often. Even if they get nothing

11:17

from Williams, it's a pretty much haven't for the

11:19

last couple years. He matchup James Williams becomes the

11:21

first round talent that they drafted him to be.

11:23

I could not wait to watch that reliance upon

11:25

Twenty Four. Yeah. Totally agree

11:27

with this. Everything you just said there I think be.

11:30

The. Interesting thing is Jamison Williams which is

11:32

you're right, It's grew to say that

11:34

any any sort of production from him

11:36

would be gravy would be a cherry

11:39

on top. Not just because he hasn't

11:41

done anything really consistently at this point

11:43

his career. So really that he's kind

11:45

of I think has to be viewed

11:47

as a luxury asset but you know

11:49

eat I had a because he's with

11:51

my buddy James co about him swims

11:53

the other day where I was saying

11:55

that. Like. Yeah, they're kind

11:57

of counting on him, right? because.

12:00

The Is. The. Clear cut second receiver.

12:02

They didn't draft another receiver that in bringing

12:04

a veteran to replace Josh Reynolds. Ah my

12:06

I don't imagine the Dpj is really get

12:08

down to people jones going to push steam

12:10

some ways. snaps the like. They're.

12:12

Quote relying on him and like under no

12:15

circumstances is he gonna rise any higher than

12:17

fit into pecking order right? He's never gonna.

12:19

He's never gonna be can eat, Never going

12:21

to touch the ball more than C Brown

12:23

or touched the ball more than the running

12:25

backs are touched the ball more than Sam

12:28

Laporta. So steer the Luxor. Yeah, so it's

12:30

a big is going to make him a

12:32

tough guy that had went out and fantasy.

12:34

I'm curious about. Like. The

12:37

eighty peas in a price points on these

12:39

guys. Like is there any one you mentioned

12:41

Laporta and I'm Tina with you. Were.

12:43

Listen, he's gonna in early. Best while

12:46

dresses and twenty seven player off the

12:48

board. that's that is pretty aggressive. Just

12:51

from an overall standpoint, you're gonna have to

12:53

pass up on a lot of running backs.

12:55

You had to pass up on some some

12:57

good receiver. Best in that range is you

12:59

know some people can in go Haddonfield control

13:01

making the plunge, adding you and I scott

13:03

maybe are a little more hesitant. Barracks nothing

13:05

against them reporters, just just roster construction. But

13:08

like. These. Running backs from an Atp

13:10

sampling comfortable with Where'd You Mere gives goes

13:12

because at this point again in the overall

13:14

early best not he's like the Twelve. Play

13:16

off the board was Steve Mccurry. She were

13:18

doing a staff mock draft, the We're Going

13:21

To Break Down and the on the next

13:23

podcast Gods Elites I will. I got demagoguery

13:25

the seventh round interviews that we just did

13:27

that last year Where where the like? There

13:29

was this huge gap between these guys and

13:31

from a usability standpoint that that was not

13:34

the case. Of. So that you brought that

13:36

up. We. Talk about the better off

13:38

and says for fantasy a lot of times

13:40

the question is, how do I draft into

13:42

this often affordably. And.

13:45

As. Much as a look I love Saint Brown I

13:47

will draft shares of in this year. I'm sure of

13:49

it. As of Laporta, I'm probably not going to have

13:52

the roster construction than a lousy that at a vanity

13:54

tight end of the A D P. I.

13:56

Love Gibbs. He's going at the high end

13:58

of his range. The to cheapest

14:00

way to draft into the Saw are Jared

14:03

Goff and and Or he's probably get a

14:05

cab ceiling last years. Probably the best he

14:07

could realistically. do you do anything as a

14:09

runner? Made. Their touchdown of is she

14:11

just gives a little bit the of he could

14:13

easily just be like should be fifteen Qb sixteen.

14:16

But. The great way, the affordable way you did

14:18

it not mock draft to get into this

14:20

often at a reasonable price. for the Montgomery

14:22

who. I don't know that

14:24

the last year for about two thirds of the

14:26

seas up like okay there and close it's Montgomery

14:29

time in the later in the year the accepted

14:31

it will does the reason why gives jets were

14:33

some of those touchdowns to and that became a

14:35

little bit more balances the season went along. And

14:37

as or trust level? maybe? When. Up with

14:39

gives in those situations also Montgomery and a couple

14:41

injuries during season, which is just common for any

14:44

running back. right? Online.

14:47

Anybody's touchdown projection for deeper. Montgomery has to be

14:49

like what a mouse nine and a half. Something

14:52

like that, He's going date on like most seems,

14:54

they don't want to rely on one right back.

14:56

They certainly don't expect Gibbs to be any kind

14:58

of a bell cow. He's gonna be somebody who

15:00

needs to share touch with somebody else. Maybe.

15:03

The price is going to rise. In

15:05

the teeth of Raf season. But the idea

15:07

of doing David Montgomery outside the top seventy

15:10

as you did and as the market is

15:12

allowing right now, I think that the absolute

15:14

steal I want you plus circle around that

15:16

and want you to gobble up those early

15:18

shares as are available. Last.

15:21

thing in this group cause i unambiguously people

15:23

have cost of of the Forty Niners, the

15:25

dolphins of the eagles the ravens though I

15:27

will say. I. Did today at

15:29

least raise an eyebrow? The Ravens being

15:32

third overall here scott just because. I've.

15:35

And me, look, Lamar Jackson is locked in

15:37

Qb one. Although his production was a little

15:39

bit of a journey last year, a bf

15:41

anybody listen to this podcast and how often

15:43

Andy barons one of the pause hair out

15:45

you know and people would submit him summit

15:47

Lamar Jackson to the panic meter Know production

15:50

was a little bit volatile last year. Maybe

15:52

wasn't just like Pq be one Stuff that

15:54

doesn't mean it can't be this year, but

15:56

just the reality. But it was last year.

15:58

Marketers Isaiah likely. Is. Going to be

16:00

more of a split going forward cause like I

16:03

think likely to. Good writer it is too good

16:05

to not have on the field but team struggle

16:07

to really truly peter too tight and often some

16:09

and. The receiver I'm Scott and

16:11

and obviously dirt and resort area. but the

16:13

receiver I'm starts. I'm at least

16:15

like. I'm putting

16:18

with one foot one foot back in the

16:20

resort Bateman Camp because it seems like the

16:22

Ravens are kind of putting one foot it

16:24

back in. The result: Bateman Camp A like

16:26

that's a little risky because if the guy

16:28

who has done a lot and right now

16:30

he is clearly the second make the number

16:32

two receiver on this roster. It goes A

16:34

Flowers Were Shot Bateman Xii Nelson Aguilar Like

16:36

is that really and often that should be

16:38

ranked third in this in this list. Good.

16:41

Question and I openly admit to you

16:43

to produce a call And to editor

16:46

Jason. That. Part of. My

16:48

I'm excited to be on the spot. Yesterday's we're going to

16:50

have discussions or I'm going to tweet some of my rankings

16:52

based on. Some. The stuff that you mention

16:55

and. I could easily when I when

16:57

I do publishes Peace I believe it's been published

16:59

on Wednesday. That I.

17:01

May have Detroit rank thirty be be a move Baltimore

17:03

to fourth or fifth. Miami was the number five team

17:05

by the way. But. I looked at

17:07

Baltimore. And. Jackson's

17:09

what those guys and and and I

17:11

really sick Jackson. It's feel strange to

17:13

say this where somebody one to Mvp awards

17:16

is a little bit polarizing in that.

17:18

He doesn't get the passing volume and they

17:20

don't run the ball that much to him around.

17:22

the goal of of actually pretty judicious given

17:24

his body type right I just have some your

17:27

score the such as it is a reason

17:29

why josh our them given hurts have to

17:31

score double to touch sensor for year. I think

17:33

it's a little reckless and a little crazy

17:35

the maybe it's was among those types of

17:37

they now they have gotten hurt although I think

17:39

given her she's playing pretty heard the and

17:41

the last season I don't know that's attributable goal

17:43

line work but if our Buffalo Bills fan.

17:46

My my heartbeat would be gone crazy when

17:48

their head by seventeen points lately game and

17:50

Josh Allen is running like his life depends

17:52

on. I just thought the you need play

17:54

that way but if you do draft Jackson

17:56

visit every week starter. He can be the

17:58

quarterback one in any week. With we just a

18:01

couple of plays and I think you're Henry's

18:03

in a situation. He's an older running back

18:05

and usually we won this run away from

18:07

those guys back nine players but that he

18:09

set up on and off as we should

18:11

follow me as on the collaborator twelve times

18:13

We Love with the Flowers did last year.

18:15

I think good reason likely to be coexist

18:17

because I love. Of Todd

18:20

Monk and stepped in. They needed a change

18:22

at the often supporters slot and been mark

18:24

input to get a great seems it's it's

18:26

still are doubly the ing of the superbowl

18:28

and be deployed the pick the worst time

18:30

of the year to play a horrible game

18:32

against. Can see the just did not show

18:34

up that day didn't execute the field football

18:37

happens but. I think

18:39

there's a situation where they could pick light out

18:41

likely more of a hybrid player. And.

18:44

I think he and interesting coexist. With.

18:46

I believe in monk and and I also. Have

18:49

just and and I know you the last of

18:51

the facade Bateman believers. I. May. I've

18:53

ever stopped. I'm not. If if Bateman has a breakout year, it's

18:56

not going to be on my team. I'm going to be the

18:58

last guys gonna believe in him at this point. But. Jackson's.

19:01

A proactive pack of He Henry. I know

19:03

we don't like drafting old running backs. His

19:05

little running back I want you to draft

19:07

he could not be as a better set

19:09

up his uniform. Hands on Tanya eleven or

19:11

twelve times is gonna have a monster year.

19:14

Andrews is a touchdown waiting to happen I think

19:16

likely and in you are kind of the looting

19:18

the this earlier. Of he his

19:21

breakout. Or is semi break out

19:23

the and the last year which is too good

19:25

to eat we can't on see that now as

19:27

he has to have a role in this offense

19:29

and he is going to happen at the expense

19:31

of maybe the secondary receivers. Were

19:33

lining up because they are likely can basically play as

19:35

a hybrid receiver the season as he taught month and

19:37

will find a way to make that work. Or.

19:41

Let's move on a next group of five here,

19:43

and I think there are several teams on in

19:45

this grouping. Becket actually. Bomb. Baltimore

19:47

out and be a top

19:49

five team mental here. Houston

19:51

Texans, Kansas City Chiefs, Los

19:53

Angeles Rams, Cincinnati Bengals and

19:55

ten Buffalo Bills. Scott I

19:57

will say. The. Bills Arnage.

20:00

Team to break down actually would have all blob

20:02

of the building a podcast but which of these

20:04

teams to got to you? The want to highlight

20:06

here. I

20:08

wasn't sure how highly co exist and because it's

20:10

just it just seems if they they have. Last

20:13

year they think they hit the to decisions you

20:15

have to hit it hit their coach. And.

20:18

They had that the quarterback. And. I

20:21

just feel sorry for breaks young he's in be

20:24

compared to see they strive for his entire career.

20:26

Abrasion is one in Oregon City Shroud, don't forget

20:28

that. But it's about the only thing the money.

20:30

I can't take it away from the a dagger.

20:32

Yeah, it was a fifteen thirteen slugfest. And.

20:35

See just how did last year? Allied.

20:37

With with you and I have yet We were

20:39

begging the drum for Nico, Call on some. I

20:42

wish I'd seen Tank Dell coming. I.

20:44

Ended up with some shares in free agency

20:46

but some people may be were more proactive

20:48

about him before the season. But the ads

20:50

to find to this room and you have

20:52

a decent I, then Dom shelves and then

20:54

you. yep. And this is

20:56

against the if the. Divorce. Yourself

20:58

from real life value A fantasy value. I'm

21:01

not sure exactly how great of a real

21:03

life back your mission is anymore, but he

21:05

set up on a team where he's sitting

21:07

at the majority of the work and we

21:09

know so much of running Back. Value is

21:11

just forget where the volume goes. And.

21:14

Every team. Is coming to

21:16

the stadium. Think of How Do We Stop Stroud, How

21:18

Do We Stop Digs: How Do We Stop Nico Collins,

21:20

How Do We Stop Tactile. They're. Not thinking

21:22

about how do we stop Joe Mixon Joe

21:24

Mixon and have a mediocre sees a Joe

21:26

Mixon could our averaged three and three point

21:28

Eight three point nine yards a carry as

21:30

the wonder. Been running backs six A running

21:32

back seven because he's to get some woodwork

21:35

and they're gonna live in the red zone

21:37

And the this is you the see right

21:39

now. Six on my seat. This is the

21:41

council seat. I gonna put the suffered Panda

21:43

Morrow. I could easily move them up. They

21:45

are a darling team. The arrow pointed out

21:47

They made the playoffs for crying out loud

21:49

last year at you ahead of schedule by

21:51

year A to. Dot the some people say well. When.

21:54

What the sophomore slump? You know you eat your hope

21:56

they don't get too high on of in the did

21:58

last year and you know. The teams are going

22:00

to have more time that to gameplay. Mm of

22:03

Sees all adds up. If they knew how to

22:05

stop Cj Stroud how to make him play badly,

22:07

they would it. on the last year I could

22:09

not be. But. It's it's cop.

22:11

It's a very crowded. Bandwagon,

22:14

But he say be a seat on that one.

22:16

I get what we do watch the The Texans

22:18

play this year assuming the does okay after that

22:20

gunshot of a scary story there. but. To.

22:22

Seems like they have everything. I've maybe a

22:25

like a more electrifying back but but his

22:27

passing game? Who cares what? let your big

22:29

should have seventy guards for seventy yards or

22:31

live with that either. Going throw the ball

22:33

of the art I can destroy for five

22:35

thousand. Dollar. For sure. And

22:37

the fact that. They. Also have

22:39

that offensive coordinator play caller continuity the you

22:41

high with Detroit. The fact that they were

22:43

able to bring back Bobby Slavic that's Huge

22:45

That Cg Strauss not. Even

22:48

if it beautiful promoted somebody from within that

22:50

he doesn't have a new voice in his

22:52

ear and year to that's critical. I'm I'm

22:54

with you that mix and is currently rb

22:57

sixteen early. Best will draft Score into fantasy

22:59

prose Consensus: Atp that's fine right? Like it's

23:01

a he's not gonna. Probably.

23:03

Out kick that by too much

23:05

but perfectly plausible Pick their just

23:08

attaching rang back to get ecosystem.

23:10

Man is receiver room rules. Scott

23:12

and I'm curious, do you have

23:14

a lean on how this room

23:16

is gonna play out because again

23:18

early draft or seem to have

23:20

their said pretty convincingly. Nico Collins

23:22

Wide receiver Fifteen. He's the top

23:25

dog year. Ah, Stefan digs at

23:27

Wide Receiver seventeen, and then there's a pretty

23:29

actually decent gap to take Dell at Wide

23:31

Receiver Twenty six. Ah, my know how I

23:33

kind of sat on his room. You have

23:35

sort of a lean on how you think

23:37

that distributions and ago he i think the

23:39

early consensus means are pretty good, but. I.

23:42

Love I know I looked into getting up to

23:44

an age where you'd a little bit nervous he

23:46

about him and obviously he was not a productive

23:49

player in the second Afl I see is really

23:51

good. maybe the first six or seven weeks and

23:53

then he fell off the map that this we

23:55

a joke. I'm Red Sox

23:57

fan Boston Sports fan. Is he

23:59

a job that would Manny Ramirez? We can get

24:01

in a rat with the Red Sox that they

24:04

would just tap on the shows. A man, you

24:06

just get traded to Boston and give him a

24:08

fresh start. Ever meet? Ya know, be met. Seriously.

24:10

But when they actually finally did trade Manny Ramirez

24:12

on a boss and he gets rid of the

24:14

Dodgers one year, Two thousand, seventy thousand eight, Something

24:16

like that. And I think many

24:18

hit three ninety six for the Dodgers something

24:20

crazy or even get some Mvp votes. You

24:22

loyally played about fifty three games for Ally

24:24

and. Remember this the divorce

24:27

that tix have with the Vikings. It

24:29

went sour. He. Couldn't wait to get

24:31

the buffalo when. They

24:33

get the happiest must engage version

24:35

of stuff on digs and thing

24:37

soured. Or. Lot of different reasons

24:39

why. He's on a new team with

24:41

a new quarterback. I'd. Like this

24:43

is.apples to apples comparison. But. The

24:46

thing like Randy Moss how unhappy he was in

24:48

Oakland and I was a losing team. Your Buffalo

24:50

obviously was a playoff contending get super book and

24:52

had the team the whole time. Dicks was there

24:54

but. As it's a phonics,

24:56

getting that change of scenery, getting a

24:58

new quarterback, getting just just them. And

25:01

are what? Whatever was wrong with his relationships of

25:03

Buffalo, it's gone these on a new team and

25:05

now it's on him. He has something to prove

25:08

if he plays poorly he can't blame it on

25:10

Buffalo. it's It's good to be blamed on the

25:12

phone dig. I think he has a nice bounce

25:14

back season. I will drop calls before digs but

25:16

I think they're gonna go. It's gonna

25:18

be the dog whistle draft that when one of them gets

25:20

taken. It's in a trigger. somebody else

25:23

in the room. The take the other guy

25:25

and you want exposure. Cj Stroud I I

25:27

think there's definitely separation between those two guys.

25:29

Tank Dallas not that I don't like Tank

25:31

Dell, but adding they're all to be weekly

25:33

fantasy starters, but. This is going

25:35

to be. Wealth of Extra

25:38

as a decent chance that to get ridiculous.

25:40

Volume two: I have efficiency and volume I.

25:42

I could not say how much over the

25:44

moon I'd fact I have them six and

25:46

pencil or they may be jumping a couple

25:48

teased by the time I commit to Panama's.

25:50

Sounds. Like you're about to have jumped a couple

25:53

of teams and I'm I'm with you. That. If.

25:55

Tank that wasn't coming off an injury he

25:57

i even before the shooting was obvious was

25:59

terrible situation. But if he wasn't coming

26:01

off an injury, maybe this would be even

26:03

tighter between these guys. But I mean just

26:05

flat out Nico how it's played like one

26:07

of the best receivers in the league last

26:09

year. so even having the wide receiver fifteen

26:12

is conservative. I'd stuff on digs. I think

26:14

it's gonna be a better. Is

26:16

not give you some fantasy player he was there

26:18

but he is going to really help that drop

26:20

back pass game which like you said all of

26:22

it is really comes back Cj Stroud which is

26:24

really the big most enticing piece from that off

26:27

and again I feel like we talk about the

26:29

T saliva type of the Bengals lot. even the

26:31

Bills. you talk a lot. I will just throw

26:33

the Rams out here not. And

26:35

as kind of my pushback team here

26:37

I am very in to dressing Kuga

26:39

Berrien on Matthew Stafford as like elite

26:42

Qb one. The backfield

26:44

definitely gets a shakeup, potentially with by a

26:46

corum in their car. Waves could still stand

26:48

to lose like twenty five percent of the

26:51

work he saw last year, and still be

26:53

a fantasy. Maybe not league winner, but a

26:55

needle mover if we wanted to. Parse.

26:58

Words out there. The only thing I'll say about

27:00

the Rams that worries me Scott is I do

27:02

think they're a little bit fragile. Light.

27:05

Cooper. Yeah

27:08

he is. He the is a t gone bad

27:10

on Cooper can't to use want to your sayings

27:12

right like if and what's that he goes bad

27:14

as as as disgusting as the saying goes doesn't

27:17

suddenly go on bad right at have injury sacked

27:19

Up to the point is he started to lose

27:21

a bit a little bit as a player because

27:23

if he has. Touted.

27:25

Be some of serious injury it tight and

27:27

on the you're going to be like right

27:29

Iraq and week one in like release it's

27:31

our had been Neil mover they have like

27:33

the markets Robinson into to outlaw behind Coogan

27:35

Cooper Cup. Ah I just worry that this

27:38

ecosystem is is a little bit fragile. We

27:40

started take away like one piece were looking

27:42

at maybe a potential Jenga situation. Yeah.

27:44

God you you rob the Rams because they were

27:46

difficult rank for me. And I

27:49

initially had them lower on the list but then

27:51

we will wait a minute. I log Fuca. I

27:54

love I I think see the quorum

27:56

effect. On Williams is

27:58

being a little bit overstated. Okay, certainly one

28:00

corn to come in. And have a

28:03

sizable role will be drafted never defensively, but

28:05

what Williams was so good last year and

28:07

I'm really he's a little. Maybe

28:09

undersized to be a true bell cow, but. He

28:12

was too good at too many things

28:14

last year for some evasive all hate.

28:16

Those boys are worthless. Not run them

28:18

anymore. Yeah you know I saw the

28:20

he belongs. I'd be comfortable taking him

28:22

are considering him strongly at the rug

28:24

one round to turn. I'm

28:27

not going to take him some people made before

28:29

the draft for taking Liam. seven, eight, nine, something

28:31

like that. That's I'm not quite there. But.

28:33

Of I got him any point the second rabbit

28:36

feel great about it. So this ranking. Having

28:38

them, my pencil ranks as a teen eight.

28:41

That's. Based on. Williams. Keeping most

28:44

of last year stats and de

28:46

coeur being totally legit am. Stafford.

28:49

Having some value? I don't know you

28:51

mentioned copies used to be. One

28:54

of those are the was a polarizing for into

28:56

last season. And. That last

28:58

year I thought I had a big feet on

29:00

the Rams and a lot of it was nervousness

29:02

about Cooper Cop. That second thing was right, The.

29:05

Fate of the Rams was gigantic the ground because

29:07

I'm gonna be of moves into cool were probably

29:09

the two most important out of nowhere fantasy players

29:11

last season. For.

29:13

Dot drafted the lotta leagues or if if they

29:16

weren't you guys have some. Be worth. Just have

29:18

a all of their fab. Budget. On

29:20

them after one week. Turned out to be

29:22

the right move. Simply

29:25

frivolous said Tim Makers on that team. This.

29:28

Is. At a

29:30

I do these reason Power Rankings U C

29:32

parent his quarterly during the season and it

29:34

I could easily you mentioned the Jenga pieces

29:36

to this team. Will he be the type

29:38

of team that the top ten team on

29:40

my list when the season starts and the

29:42

when I do it in October they're like

29:45

twenty three or something because the cool got

29:47

hurt or staffer got hurt or Williams is

29:49

showing more with form the we initially thought

29:51

or. Or something like that's of.

29:53

This is a very I think. Even though I

29:55

still think they belong the top ten, there's a

29:57

lot of volatility here. There's a lot of downside.

30:00

You know for Stafford. He

30:02

had injuries in his career. On the

30:04

other, a really messy season two years

30:06

ago delicate the same maybe was really

30:08

close to reboot while they won the

30:10

championship. That's fine, that flight will live

30:12

forever. I had no idea they could

30:14

rebuild this quickly. And Nicholas you course,

30:16

becoming. I Target Dominator a target

30:19

hog right out of the box of the to

30:21

so rarely see that. We are in an age

30:23

now where receivers to be great right away. But

30:25

what the who did with no draft capital really

30:28

whatsoever was shocking to me. I am some still

30:30

trying to figure it out. I had none of

30:32

it to by the way so. Although

30:34

Sunday night we talked about all of Fuca

30:36

had a lot more taxes I I got

30:38

no benefit from that. Never forgotten I joined

30:40

into Football Man but Dumps but I'll get

30:43

you really nailed it that there is a

30:45

a ton of volatility with this team and

30:47

there is not a for the Rams do

30:49

not have before. This could easily fall apart.

30:52

Well. Yeah and look, I know

30:54

Rams fans are people going to fail. Okay it

30:56

that could happen for any team. I just think

30:58

that this team is particularly susceptible to that because

31:00

the think there are these a little bit of

31:02

a lack of lack of depth on this team

31:05

and that's also you know that's like that the

31:07

pro and con the gift in the curse of

31:09

a narrow usage tree right? right? We love it

31:11

with oh okay yeah it's all the targets you

31:13

go into these guys and all that touches ago

31:15

that it your it's just a very limited distribution

31:17

that's great. If those guys get

31:19

hurt. You. If who could, who gets

31:21

hurt this notebook and a coup have to point out

31:23

of it did this that I can see any way

31:25

that's ready to step in and mean obviously this. Place.

31:28

We don't know lot about or plays on the be

31:30

a lot better than we expected, but generally. When.

31:33

A running back. It's hurt somebody will inherit the

31:35

touches and sometimes the. Production doesn't

31:37

fall off that much because a lot of

31:39

again a lot of the sleeping for fantasy

31:41

football Right back to figure out who gets

31:43

set the ball to get the high value

31:45

touches as well. but usually. Like.

31:48

It If the dolphins lose, sorry, kill

31:50

the screwed. If the T flu

31:52

shots Chelsea they're screwed. You don't have somebody

31:54

who's going to said maybe the Ravens were

31:57

rare example where Andrews went out and than

31:59

likely other. A different kind of time was

32:01

was ready to play really well as it also

32:03

last year is just kind of funny. some of

32:05

the teams all the quarterback injuries. I think one

32:07

of the reasons why optimism is more in play

32:09

for us is your Matt. We. Saw somebody

32:12

quarterback injuries last year and we're at a time

32:14

where the league is never been more proactive trying

32:16

to keep his quarterbacks on the field. I

32:18

think a lot of those injuries were just lucas

32:21

things that are unlikely to happen this year. I

32:23

think the quarter back injury rate will be a

32:25

lot less significant and he doesn't twenty four and.

32:28

You're. And I, you know me, I'm not like

32:30

some screaming optimists just for the sake of being

32:32

optimistic graphic. Last year we ran bad with quarterback

32:35

Adrees. I think I'd be very surprised if it

32:37

was a similar run bad this year. That position.

32:40

I'd as next group of five. Carries

32:42

lot of volatility in my opinion. Where

32:44

I could see them going up I

32:46

could zap. Definitely see some downside risk

32:48

for all of these teams. Maybe save

32:50

your fifteenth ranked team here. Ah, but

32:53

I'd eleven to fifteen. Indianapolis,

32:55

Colts. Twelve Minnesota Vikings, Thirteen

32:57

New York Jets, Fourteen Dallas Cowboys, Fifteen

32:59

Green Bay Packers are my want to

33:01

start of the top here Scott and

33:03

ask you about the colds because her

33:06

body like I've been saying i gotta

33:08

try to talk myself down off the

33:10

Indianapolis Colts with is very easy to

33:12

get excited about what they've got on

33:15

paper. Or I'm the one that took

33:17

Anthony Richardson in our mock draft. I'm

33:19

a I'm Again, I expect I expected

33:21

to have a good time To give

33:24

Andy Barons a couple justification for going.

33:26

On and he reaches in and I think

33:28

the six wow They ended up going with

33:30

anti riches and. Bite. A

33:33

I love the receivers the whole thing. I

33:35

thought I was gonna maybe have to be

33:37

talked down from Colts optimism. but eleventh overall

33:40

team here. Scott that it's very bullish on

33:42

the Colts. And. We seen it.

33:45

It's not unusual for if you have you

33:47

land on the right quarterback if you had

33:49

pattern homes in the breakout year, If you're

33:51

Josh Allen in the breakout year, if you

33:53

had gym and hurts in the breakup you're

33:55

a quarterback. Could be somewhat of a winner

33:57

to either you eat we were so program

33:59

that like. In the Nfl Top of the

34:01

quarterback in fantasy, The court I'm actually support and. Choir.

34:04

I. Think. We moved away from that. When

34:06

we see this court your the floor you

34:09

get from of a running quarterback. Record records

34:11

for the she touchdowns and we were to

34:13

see which isn't really spread his wings Before

34:15

that early injury I talked about used to

34:17

getting the two big decisions right coach and

34:19

quarterback and I think everybody thinks that she's

34:21

taken was the right man for the kuleshov.

34:24

He had a great first year and they

34:26

kept together even with reducing getting hurt and

34:28

you're having a plea bargain bins you the

34:30

me Juri The season they were still a

34:32

competitive team. And. Britches

34:34

we saw enough or Richard said that. It sure

34:37

seems like he was the right pack and what's

34:39

he doing is handing off the Jonathan Taylor. He's

34:41

throwing a Michael Pitt and to support guys are

34:43

good. You got Mitchell and the draft. A speedster.

34:46

Indoor Team Cannibal

34:49

Division. It's. Obviously.

34:52

A It depends on Richardson's development and and guns

34:54

on a Richardson's health but I'm ready to fall

34:56

she has in into a burning building and from

34:58

what I saw the first month the last season

35:01

I'm pretty much there with Anthony Richardson to and

35:03

I'm encouraged that run the same page as you

35:05

said you to come early that mock draft that

35:07

we did with randy parents as piece on that

35:10

of the you're Going To podcast founded as well

35:12

yeah and then have enough. The great thing about

35:14

won't be about would you all these rankings we

35:16

talk were all the stuff theoretically be greatly about

35:19

drafting death when you figure stuff out right and

35:21

like okay. How do I really feel about this? You

35:23

know, a ranking is just a bunch of names on

35:25

a paper and then when the clock is ticking and

35:27

you actually have to make a pic, you put your

35:29

name to it. or you're in a baseball draft and

35:31

there's money involved and the fishbowl happens and legal cap

35:33

graphing. It's a whole world and everything. It's a. That.

35:36

When you find out sometimes how you feel about

35:38

things. or maybe you learn something about yourself and

35:40

you took Anthony Richardson. but. I.

35:42

Think this could be. Is.

35:45

One of these pairings it for five years

35:47

go by and probably government isn't the a

35:49

of sea sick of of since they can

35:51

and richardson just making them look bad of

35:53

adding to such as. These guys to be

35:55

going to the moon. The. At bird

35:57

the high end of the range Outcomes: your

35:59

soul. Peeling to call to again. I don't

36:01

want to keep referencing the mock draft because we

36:03

are going to do a full podcast with that

36:06

later in the week with Andy Barons. But what

36:08

I learned about myself in that in that Dress

36:10

got is that yeah, I'm sitting around six am

36:12

thinking who's gonna make a difference for. Me

36:14

in. Fantasy This year is it. Doesn't.

36:17

Kincaid, Alvin Kamara Aaron Jones Tony Powered

36:19

marking answers. Take Dell Keenan Allen those

36:21

are the names. It also came off

36:23

after in the in the six rounds.

36:26

Ah, know whose names or I don't

36:28

think. Gonna. Give me like the

36:30

face melting upside that Antony Riches in presents

36:32

like I'm trying to win the league year.

36:34

I'm not trying to get a solid floor of

36:36

like well running back started dry up. Let

36:38

me get one more pretty decent play able

36:40

guy here know now I like I say

36:42

get the riches in truly. Again, it's

36:45

a projection for sure because we didn't see

36:47

it enough last year. We did see it

36:49

from a full or even close to enough

36:51

but the brief glimpses of high and processing

36:54

and high end like. Offense

36:56

Just. What? Does working the office

36:58

and working within structure that was there for

37:00

and he reaches it's and they have to

37:02

set him up to succeed. Man that receiver

37:04

trios so good. Josh downs. Michael. Pittman,

37:07

Add my Mitchell complimentary skill set and the run

37:09

game should be good so I'm glad On the

37:11

same page, With. The Colts. To

37:14

do one net I would jeffrey pick in

37:16

this group. Scott is. I. Think

37:18

you should just go ahead. flip flop the

37:20

Vikings in the Packers at twelve and fifteen

37:22

I'm I S. I think that. Counting.

37:25

On the Vikings to to role in like.

37:28

As. The twelfth Overall often said you just put

37:30

in a lot of faith and Jj Mccarthy there

37:32

and I realized that again one of these use

37:34

has just Jefferson and the other team and Green

37:36

Bay has like kind of. Odd.

37:38

An amalgamation of really good receivers where

37:41

I have no conviction on how bout

37:43

room is gonna split itself out. I'm

37:45

curious if you do, but. From.

37:47

An ecosystem standpoint. I.

37:49

Think Jj Mccarthy can be okay? Can can can

37:51

get the Vikings were they need to go But

37:54

like talk about one to follow a guy into

37:56

a burning building. like I want to follow Jordan

37:58

Love into a burning building. The season. And

38:00

again there's not can be as much clarity of

38:02

i know where the ball's going in Minnesota. I

38:04

don't know what's going on in Green Bay. In.

38:07

Terms of Does: who's gonna finish highs in the pecking

38:09

order. But. I want to take the

38:11

journey of discovery and draft into this team.

38:13

Yeah, I will send him god. you brought that

38:15

up and. Certainly. The. Vagueness

38:18

to where the ball's going in. Green

38:20

Bay did affect the ranking enough that

38:22

crystallizes before the season or even during

38:24

the season. It will give them more

38:26

fancy utility. Talking about falling

38:28

into a burning building. Hubble Kevin O'connell I

38:31

know it was a small sample size. He

38:33

gets eight point eight Y p A from

38:35

Nyc Mullens, yet eight point four Y P

38:37

A from Geron Hall ange anywhere near close

38:39

to that with which are three dogs. What?

38:41

We had a couple of a sudden gate

38:43

with dogs you want to couple games of

38:45

before. He kind of. It. Delete salt

38:47

him and he went back to be what

38:49

he should be, just your skin but back

38:51

a piece but they did not collapse either without

38:54

her cause that's a shame cousin get hurt as

38:56

your cousins was going to have a monstrous

38:58

season of levy levy an iphone passing yards.

39:00

Before. He got hurt but. I.

39:02

Believe in. Nine.

39:05

Don't leave it in Jeju Mccarthy your five star

39:07

recruit. I know I realize in get a lot

39:09

of volume at Michigan they were team that played

39:11

balancing were to a lot a hit or towns

39:13

and all that stuff but. Even.

39:16

If they have to replace him Donald who who

39:18

bought Speed a wipe yeah of he is a

39:20

pretty good wife year with the Panthers when we

39:22

last started and he says if your time a

39:24

couple years ago i he actually did not play

39:27

that poorly and his time with Carolina in and

39:29

although I did not wish an injury on Nick

39:31

months i'm sorry on our property I would have

39:33

just as an experiment loved him seem but same

39:35

Darvill might have done with. Maybe. A

39:37

month in the my shit and the Kyle Shanahan

39:39

off and are we didn't see that. Now.

39:42

Is would Minnesota. This is a ranking. And

39:44

again. This. Is a very cluster tear

39:46

and if anybody wanted to have Green Bay

39:48

Minnesota flipped are certainly a case for the Jets

39:50

being hire you for free. Saw may be

39:53

the right running back to off everybody's for Jarrett.

39:55

Will said may end up getting in the first

39:57

round I took i'm I think on the turn.

40:00

In our mock draft so I certainly want to

40:02

a redo for that. He would have a great

40:04

season last year of our address and get hurt

40:06

and so we see a full season of that.

40:08

The see what Wilson is capable of. But.

40:12

That's just and Jefferson Jordan Addison was

40:14

really good as a rookie to still

40:16

have a decent backfield. eventual legal get

40:18

hearkens back, caught your pockets and is

40:20

kind of a catch and fall guy

40:22

Now anyway of I do think Pc

40:24

seems are very clustered, but ultimately it

40:26

was my faith in Kevin O'connell that

40:28

the game Minnesota maybe the Nod were

40:30

not everybody. What? you're betting: a lot

40:32

of people private to have them like

40:34

a half year lower, but it's believing

40:37

Kevin O'connell that kept them buoyant in

40:39

my first rankings. Laughing.

40:41

Of his group and and in a move on with a quick

40:43

break. Dallas. Cowboys fourteen.

40:46

If they had insert intriguing day

40:48

to running back here tray, Benson,

40:50

Job, and Brooks sued even Blade

40:53

Corum. Was. On this team, how high

40:55

would they have been? Because in my mind

40:57

scott. It's. Not that it's holding his

40:59

team back, it's actually the ancillary pass catchers, which

41:01

I think you're sneaky. Very weak. For a team

41:03

that's good supposed to throw the ball over the

41:06

yard like. this can be the year to see

41:08

Lamb see the two hundred targets. So.

41:11

Mention the Scott Fishbowl. You

41:14

can pick your sought. And.

41:16

of other show my cards i was as think okay.

41:19

What's out? Like picking first or twelve. I hate

41:21

that I want to pick somewhere in the middle.

41:23

Son: Michael: What middle slot can I take? And.

41:26

Feel comfortable going to a Cd Lamb. I

41:29

would not look. Cds I am is great. I'm

41:31

not breaking any news there. But.

41:34

This is set up. Dak. Prescott.

41:37

And know what at a you finish second, the Mvp

41:39

last your third whatever. he was the favorite at one

41:41

point. minutes seen with the favorite was ping pong every

41:43

week. Decorous. Coming

41:45

never be like the guy in the Nfl

41:47

but he still at worse. He's a tops

41:49

and quarterback when he's at the your the

41:51

higher end of his raise the top five

41:53

top six quarterbacks. There's no reason why they

41:55

couldn't go to a Super Bowl with that

41:57

Prescott. He certainly good enough in my mind.

42:00

And. You're gonna pepper Cd lamb off

42:03

the bus. First. Snap Second

42:05

Snap First series their ahead, they're behind

42:07

it's it's Nct lamp just can't be

42:09

covered. I think we could see. When.

42:12

He first our county Targets was not

42:14

unusual to see hundred Seventy Hundred Eighty

42:17

Hundred Ninety Two Hundred Target seasons and

42:19

as passing trees have become wider. And.

42:22

Offices of realized up me we just and course

42:24

the although our best player all the time. if

42:26

you double covered in the other guys are open

42:28

and when we we have more people on the

42:30

route and the combinations are more complicated. The game

42:32

is different now. I get that is a reason

42:34

why nobody gets two hundred for targets anymore. I

42:36

could see it happening others damn. The.

42:39

Reason the cowboys are higher is because I'm

42:41

over the moon to draft lamb. Open

42:44

minded to draft Prescott. I

42:46

even get a i feel gross saying this.

42:49

I. Think is he can have a bad year and

42:51

maybe score a touchdowns and maybe I'm like nine hundred

42:53

and fifty total yards and then wind up to be

42:55

like I never felt that good about him. He was

42:57

running back nineteen or something or okay. fine. J. Ferguson's

42:59

not a bad player. But. Really

43:02

Lambs the only guy the only pound the

43:04

table I gotta have see the lamb in

43:06

my life this year I don't feel that

43:08

way. I dhaka neutral to i might. Put

43:10

him down, he says, that it's a D position:

43:12

"There's nobody else in this office or wanna arm

43:14

wrestle anybody out of the way for" When.

43:17

I my did the rankings on twitter I really

43:19

have to copy so I'm. An. Elliptical.

43:22

Other. The Lamb. Who? Who Am I going

43:24

to my draft? all excited at the answers?

43:26

Nobody. I. Wonder

43:28

how often phrases like. Grows.

43:31

Doesn't feel good. Not.

43:33

Pretty are gonna be used for as the

43:36

You Elliot Fantasy analysis the summer I would

43:38

he I would wager quite frequently. Ice: We're

43:40

going to take quick break. We come back.

43:42

We're going to run through the second half

43:45

Atlanta Falcons, and twenty. Jacksonville.

44:35

Jaguars tell you what's got. A

44:38

t I o give you your pick the which team to

44:40

talk with here cause I think any of these teams. Could.

44:42

Be pretty interesting from a fantasy prospectus we're going

44:44

back to Over Time at the top with his

44:47

lot of optimism around the league right now. But.

44:49

With the exception of maybe Jacksonville. I.

44:52

Feel like the teams I have eleven the nineteen you can

44:54

to shake him up for the been a hat. But.

44:57

Yeah for them. Put. Him in

44:59

the in the yeah, see you know container

45:01

and it's role him out and any ranking

45:03

would make sense. Right to be Atlanta. Has

45:06

all those great skill players and now they don't have

45:08

our their and and I know they do. they did

45:10

The crazy thing is apt to panic know if you

45:12

really understand it but. For

45:15

Cousins is still. Up your high

45:17

functioning player. They. Have

45:19

a lotta guys I wanna drafted. I

45:21

was really tempted. To. Go higher on

45:23

them to Tampa Bay Bike I'm assuming. great until

45:25

he retires a baker. Mayfield had a comeback, sees

45:28

a different else. had a lot to do with

45:30

that. He's obviously gonna be Carolina now. he'll try

45:32

to. After. Geno Smith two years ago

45:34

after Baker Mayfield last year olds he would

45:36

he do with bright young but Evans's always

45:38

great as guy with as a bounce back

45:40

year recent light level of the more competition

45:42

for the ball but we know his volume

45:44

is pretty safe for free bay. As.

45:47

As. That we met Legacy or

45:49

in the previous year of Your With Love

45:51

and Those Receivers They're interesting Chicago Again, I

45:53

I deferred everything parents said about them in

45:56

Seattle. Blame Steps the unusual number one overall

45:58

pick Who steps into an hour. That's

46:00

really really good. The.

46:02

T night. I don't know what to do with

46:04

a team that I know they're talented and I'm

46:07

like afraid that these guys could be be but

46:09

I'm afraid the draft him as Seattle Yeah just.

46:11

D Say soured me last year.

46:13

We've always been lock it fans.

46:16

But. He's getting into an age We start to

46:18

get nervous he could be headed towards one of

46:20

those two seasons we talk about. And

46:23

genius and. Jackson.

46:25

Smith and cheaper. It's.

46:27

It's only you're good you don't wanna. Get

46:30

a yeah bones. Okay your Jack J S

46:32

and is this or he's that we don't

46:34

know yet. But. A

46:36

year ago. Brian. Hartline

46:38

was telling people yeah we her unbelievable receivers here

46:40

j a sense that the best of those guys

46:43

I don't think anybody feels that way down. And

46:45

think about what, that's the not. I realize

46:48

the new know this more than anybody that

46:50

they do different things well and they play

46:52

different versions of the wide receiver position. And

46:54

obviously Jason went to a team that already

46:56

had two people can really play at the

46:58

office of line, get hurt right away and

47:00

Gino kinda lost his mojo. So.

47:03

The run out was a pure. But.

47:06

This would nobody would say now. Okay well

47:08

let's let's look Ohio State receivers, you could

47:10

have care Wilson, you can have Chris a

47:12

Law Bay, you could have J S and

47:14

you can have Marvin Harrison Junior. Nobody's taking

47:16

jammed and uppers the and I realize also

47:18

any funded by the way they shouldn't have

47:20

been if this time last year either. I

47:22

like jazz and is a prospect but like

47:24

with or was always that okay guys come

47:26

on like a know situation is. Even when

47:28

even when Garros an increase a lot of

47:30

a sudden to meet at the Superbowl was

47:32

like. Come. On browse like you guys

47:34

are better for you guys were better prospect when

47:36

he for sure As and to be fair, I

47:38

don't know the context of when Hartline gave that

47:41

quote may or may be somebody calls them up.

47:43

They're doing a jazz and height peace and he

47:45

wants to promote his player. He and he wants

47:47

to say good things about a player came through

47:49

his program and you know there's nothing wrong with

47:51

that and a room. Sometimes people say comparisons with

47:54

A Thief Joy and everything but. I'm

47:56

sure we're out years what your data and

47:58

what you're tracking and. The Alley. Great work

48:00

you do over our p. What's. Had

48:03

the State of the Union address on Jason. Yeah.

48:05

You know, and he's it's great time,

48:08

exactly. Literally just wrapped up his sample

48:10

a couple days ago and. What's.

48:13

Funny is like I come away from

48:15

his rookie season thinking. He.

48:17

Was fine. But. Like what is

48:19

fine doing what does that do for you? You

48:21

know, like be. just look at some of his

48:23

overall metrics. Success. Overs man zone

48:25

oppressed like he was fine. He's in a

48:27

pretty good range for all of those. All

48:30

those metrics like I think he was a

48:33

good Nfl player as a rookie. Isolated from

48:35

surroundings and you mention some of the surrounding

48:37

issues. Number one: it there was a snow

48:39

situation as much as I like chance and

48:41

as a prosecutor, he was gonna come in.

48:43

And. Steal targets from Dk Mac app entire like

48:46

it because those guys are just too good and

48:48

a to establish and their roles are just two

48:50

different. And a little more Geno s

48:52

then Jason's role in that office last year

48:54

which is never gonna happen. and secondly the

48:56

fact that they had but they lost both

48:58

of their starting tackle so early in the

49:01

season charles Cross and she came back on

49:03

of he was ever fully himself and Abe

49:05

Lucas like he was rotating with Jason Peters

49:07

who's at forty years old at different times

49:09

of year because of the injury so that.

49:11

Pass. Protection I think was sneakily. The

49:13

biggest reason that this really aerial a unit

49:15

did never not really, never got off the

49:18

off the map last you're never really got

49:20

going. Is that going to be different this

49:22

year? This can be a very different offensive

49:24

attack overall. Scott, like you mentioned, Michael panics

49:26

is a the Atlanta Falcons quarterback I think.

49:29

Michael. Pegs has the right. Ryan Grub, the

49:31

office coordinator from was yeah, thank you. Note

49:33

for just really giving him an officer was

49:36

constantly asking him to push the ball downfield

49:38

Appendix answer the town's you me was always

49:40

the most accurate doing it's I think that's

49:42

really fast now. Ryan Grubs the Office Corn

49:45

Effort Network or of the Corner now for

49:47

the Seattle Seahawks to see these three receivers.

49:50

Thrown. Into this office is gonna be super

49:52

fasting so again say to say with jazz

49:54

and is. He was fine as

49:56

a rookie. annulled big use as bad. As.

49:58

Some of the per. You know target or

50:01

per route metrics are going to make him

50:03

look. He also what did miss all season

50:05

time as well with the wrist injury so

50:07

I took a pretty good about him. As

50:09

a player I don't know if you in

50:11

a setting the ceiling x it is maybe

50:13

just got a little bit out of whack

50:15

last year. Are you so can be a

50:17

good viable Nfl player than I'm willing to

50:19

draft this year because I'm intrigued with what

50:21

this offense under Ryan grub an aggressive vertical

50:23

passing often is going to do to a

50:25

lot of these receivers is gullible. Eighty

50:27

Pjs and right now is wide receiver

50:29

Forty just putting context news ahead of

50:32

of Jordan as increase Scotland Yard re

50:34

Hopkins name's behind him or or his

50:36

round and in Kan city with some

50:38

see fastening. Deonte Johnson a long time

50:41

Rp favorite pretty goes to Carolina Christian

50:43

Watson coming off last season. Or

50:45

you feel Jason fits with some of those guys? It's

50:47

he could use use of drafting him over. Those guys

50:50

are so it is. whether one or two names in

50:52

that list of jumped out at you. Yeah.

50:54

I could. I could devils

50:57

myself: draft Noom over some of those

50:59

guys men. Door Madison I could see

51:01

myself drafting him over Door Madison. Ah,

51:03

I could see myself drafting him over

51:05

Press Godwin com A depending right? I.

51:08

Like the anti Johnson of course I like the and

51:10

to johnson even get a lot of targets but like

51:12

humans the situation that they are so I think it's

51:15

a pretty fair bucket of receivers for him. and and.

51:17

And. Again, it's sort of going to depend on

51:19

what we think the target project is going to

51:21

because it's just it's going to be a crowded

51:24

room but they're gonna. They're gonna open it up

51:26

a little bit more this year that I think

51:28

they have previously on Any any other teams stand

51:30

out to you in this group for a move

51:32

on to the next one. And.

51:35

I am I about going to said more

51:37

but Chicago because you guys have beaten them

51:40

you know and into the ground. the

51:42

obviously that the hottest team right now with

51:44

changes and I'm. It

51:46

is hard to know what what how much

51:48

is alan have left our to the to

51:51

get from the rookie resort read away I'm

51:53

ditching for is probably the most common player

51:55

all draft on that team but. Just

51:58

once, I want to see them. The Bears

52:00

get the quarterback right? I know. Jimmy Graham was

52:02

kind of the right guy for the the eighties

52:04

Bears, but there was always a run. First team

52:07

in a team that had a generation the great

52:09

defense. They've never had the same see, never had

52:11

a four thousand your passer right of the did

52:13

do the one franchise. And. You could

52:15

argue they have as much history. As any

52:18

franchise the Nfl, they've never gotten quarterback right.

52:20

Just once can they get quarterback right? I.

52:23

Would also distraught the Falcons at

52:25

nineteen here. Yep, they have a

52:27

player going off the board seventh

52:29

overall. Ah in early best or

52:32

draft and bees on Robinson. They have a

52:34

wide receiver gone off the board twelve at

52:36

the position. In. Drake, London and

52:38

Kyle Pits is still tight and

52:40

six in early. Best Atp so.

52:44

I. Am mean that that's it. Like there's not

52:46

a lot about supporting pieces in this office

52:48

and really, we just want her cousins to

52:50

be an elevator. We're not asking him to

52:52

carry our fancy teams, but it is interesting

52:54

with all of that optimism on these players,

52:56

they are you kind of Gotham. A nice

52:58

as yeah. I think maybe they should be

53:00

higher that and maybe I'll move them over

53:02

rob Green Bay or Chicago again. And that

53:04

reflects how neatly batch this is. Fuck it

53:06

is. Obvious as you. Just

53:08

a silly question that we can ask in that. Season

53:12

is over and we're going to look back and

53:14

say you know what? In. Retrospect, the

53:16

one sock and guy should have gotten all

53:18

my teens was ex. Who. Do you?

53:20

Who is your gut feeling? That guy is. I.

53:23

Mean bees on the easy answer as a

53:25

teacher because the and be on a beach

53:28

on hits the high end of his range.

53:30

He's running back won in his i have

53:32

magazine covers next year that. As

53:34

much as we can like Drake London is like

53:36

a caf the how great he can be as

53:38

he he is always into be other pieces and

53:40

than op especially Scott when he's gone off the

53:43

board at wide receiver twelve like like I love

53:45

Drink London and I think he is good enough

53:47

to have that type of season. We're.

53:49

Still just. We. Are banking in

53:52

a lot of progression from him

53:54

just as a producer. again, I

53:56

think the town is there, but.

53:59

Is he has. Wide Receiver. Let's just

54:01

call it. what does your seventeen eighteen season?

54:03

I guarantee you people are taking him twentieth

54:05

off the board in early drafts are going

54:07

become a Rgb fill in. the panic meter

54:10

are going to be full on complaining about

54:12

what Drake one is doing, but it's like

54:14

based on what he's been so far in

54:16

his career, that is a huge job. So

54:18

I just think that. The what

54:21

yeah the guy the of it's getting easiest like

54:23

knock it out of the park is be John

54:25

Robinson. I think this with To and Carpets is

54:27

such an unknown I can't really say him either

54:29

but Aussie Aussie with a follow up question if

54:31

somebody said I'm of the Falcons player or team.

54:34

The team fan. I want to get

54:36

somebody in this receiver room slashed. I then

54:38

room whether it's a up for London. Post.

54:42

Hype on pets value? Pick on Mooney, who

54:44

would you steer them to? and of those

54:46

three guys relative to what they cost right

54:48

now. I don't care about like any

54:50

the past catches beyond Pitzer or London from

54:52

fans are so five I I saw the

54:54

I'd still steer people to London just. With.

54:57

A little more caution Men: maybe the twentieth overall

54:59

player on the board. Ah, but again, he's good

55:01

enough to have that season. I I think Pits

55:04

is fine where he's going like I think he's

55:06

a guy wouldn't. Try. To draft around

55:08

him but I wouldn't say like I am. Putting.

55:11

Of put a stamp on the sixties sixties

55:13

were I'm deathly getting carpet their that's com

55:15

my boss As also said you guys. The

55:19

Nfl draft never disappoints. Ice Ivory Watch your

55:21

reaction to the is and I like Michael.

55:23

Panic soon Your I do. I'm not, I

55:25

cannot, I'm but it was just so much

55:27

fun watching the live draft cover to you

55:29

and Robinson that those guys after Lana Just

55:31

you know I've been days Davis Something we

55:34

gonna talk about forever. I. Still

55:36

don't think I've ever hit or will ever had

55:38

that octave again Scott than I did when Michael

55:40

Haneke Junior came off the board. may I said

55:42

what afterwards and of their never understood. As you

55:44

know. Because. As was sir.

55:46

Totally reasonable. Panics was totally reasonable. Yeah, have to

55:48

pick a lane you can't You can't go to

55:50

the car dealership. Fall of two cars in by

55:52

both cars. You have to buy one of them.

55:56

Are. I next group here. Cleveland.

55:58

Browns. Twenty. One. New Orleans

56:00

Saints Twenty two, Twenty three Arizona Cardinals

56:03

Twenty four Pittsburgh Steelers Twenty five Washington

56:05

Commanders Scott If you had to pick

56:07

one these teams to really out kick

56:09

expectation and give us like. Multiple.

56:12

Fantasy Starters. Who do you think it would

56:14

be? The. Arsenal, The Sick

56:17

a lot of fun right? and of evil. The hairs

56:19

on is just plug and play. Tree.

56:22

Benson is somebody is going to be draft

56:24

to proactively trade me prize. Looks like a

56:26

difference maker at the end the last season

56:28

and we're not that far removed from calamari

56:30

Be and like an Mvp candidate. This.

56:33

Is this gonna be a fun team? And this is

56:35

I think. If Harris's

56:37

as good as people think right away and Benson

56:40

is ready to be a factor even if he

56:42

is that going to start a Jimmy Connors is

56:44

can play I don't. Cornerstone is twenty to feel,

56:46

so he said thirty seven. Other know how that's

56:48

true, but. I believe what I

56:51

saw for Mcbride at the at the last season and

56:53

this is just. As to be a

56:55

lotta Fc West football fan to be fun to watch this

56:57

year. It's just could be cool to see color. Being.

57:00

Collar again as he had the confidence be

57:02

out of only was injured for a while.

57:04

He had a really lousy said receivers you

57:06

had to deal with in front of a

57:08

reason they could make Hollywood Brown. Is

57:10

college running mate work last year but does

57:13

a lot of upside with his team in

57:15

also. I'll mention. Ginger. Angles has a

57:17

wide range of outcomes, but we know is probably going

57:19

to run the ball lot. And.

57:22

You. And I have always been is begging to

57:24

see us going to say Scott Scott what's good

57:26

take for me to get you one last ride

57:28

on the term explores are not at We're in

57:31

a way to yeah Talk about your the great

57:33

receivers You play the the house A to mean

57:35

you're obviously term records on that list the great

57:37

two thousand and nineteen draft. He goes in the

57:39

third round. Nobody.

57:41

Works harder, Nobody smarter. And.

57:45

Your even last year right wasn't just nice for

57:47

jacoby percent came in and the ball was on

57:49

time. It's Jacoby for said look like Mark, Rip

57:51

and Ninety Ninety one compared to you know Sam

57:53

how was this kind of over skis and you

57:55

know for some reason we had to watch them

57:58

aldi the league pass attempts last year. That. Was

58:00

not fun ocean how to be a good backup for

58:02

the rest of his career. So. Have ills

58:04

maybe have a is a reason Eric the

58:06

me that offscreen your you cla now, not

58:08

the settlers your manners. And Alexis him I'll

58:10

probably just like another guard your been to. He

58:12

can be found in small doses. you just you

58:14

can date same I'll you can't marry I'm in

58:16

Washington where that the hard way but. I'm.

58:19

Of his die and for term before the have.

58:22

The. The right quarterback for once and I

58:24

and I hope it's Jack Daniels and it even

58:26

your last year with with dots and you know

58:28

who was somebody. I pushed up my draft board

58:30

and that collapse. That was a totally wrong call

58:33

by me and I heard a lot of my

58:35

teens what he could still play football. He still

58:37

obviously on the front nine of his career. It's

58:39

some Washington's of a franchise. Their.

58:42

Fans are extremely loyal. They've dealt

58:44

with that whole ownership situation of

58:46

finally mercifully in the past the

58:48

nicknames been changed your they had

58:50

that moment. Where. They they

58:52

drafted Rg to three and of like every

58:54

was taken off that he gets hurt the

58:56

playoff game and everything falls apart. They have

58:58

kind of a wasted decade it just me

59:00

I hope back and play for loss into

59:03

I can't wait. To. Move. These

59:05

guys are like five or to. I have to see

59:07

it. I can't do it on spec. Yeah, the certainly.

59:09

I know it with our zone I can do run

59:11

smack either. it's it's. very. Possible.

59:13

That we could be taught him all your users to

59:15

get Iraqis, your hours or is eleven or something that

59:18

doesn't play. The. I have ah but you're

59:20

one of the team really quickly. I don't know

59:22

what to do with the browns because I will

59:24

get a just out that he was going to

59:26

bring up to their the Attic there and that

59:28

doesn't know that Steakhouse seems like a. Great salads,

59:30

great entrees, Radar beyond Great wine list. How

59:32

the steaks fall way I I don't know if

59:35

they're any good. that's the some wants a piece

59:37

of steak we don't have? is that a good?

59:39

The rest of the sub gave a joke was

59:41

a blast. The mark to has fun. You know

59:43

our baby was a major I would. I would

59:46

argue though. that's got there He I'm with you

59:48

like. The sides are really good right here. the

59:50

steakhouse getting up the Amari Cooper. great side. actually

59:52

think he's way too low in terms of early.

59:55

Best will draft the that we did the salad

59:57

David a joke very good luck. Love a good

59:59

starter There. Ah, You know, whatever.

1:00:01

But. This. Steakhouse in particular used

1:00:03

to have. The. With the best

1:00:06

Somalia in town. It used to

1:00:08

have the guy that you could count

1:00:10

on for just consistency and everything you

1:00:12

know know in next job. And.

1:00:14

Or now. I have

1:00:16

no idea what to do as a

1:00:19

sub and that some that I met

1:00:21

over his injury. I'm still feeling pain

1:00:23

from that Monday yeah football new chub

1:00:25

about probably about as. Favorite:

1:00:28

A player of a have the Nfl

1:00:30

just you know worse his tail off.

1:00:32

Never complains always just see if she

1:00:34

yard. That. You know the usage

1:00:36

to the East. You go to war with

1:00:38

guys like Nick Chubb. You want a guy

1:00:40

like that in your corner, whatever line of

1:00:42

work your undertook will be successful in anything

1:00:44

he does. Also. By why

1:00:46

did the Patriots takes only Michelle said Nick

1:00:48

Chubb when they had the gear piece of

1:00:50

all the Georgia coaches. How does that happen?

1:00:53

When. Don't know. I get the idea that the chimp

1:00:55

story and and it sucks to say this, I'm

1:00:58

not a doctor. It's going to be one of

1:01:00

those. He's not himself. He

1:01:02

got himself. He's not himself. And

1:01:05

then he is a big game around. Thanksgiving

1:01:07

is a big game around Christmas time and

1:01:09

were all like out next year. I can't

1:01:12

wait to get back in on Nick Chubb.

1:01:14

I think this is gonna be that messy

1:01:16

loss in the shuffle year for job and

1:01:18

I'm afraid the draft home and and he's

1:01:21

always been like second round Nick Chubb you

1:01:23

don't like set your watch. I miss that

1:01:25

man and I can't wrap the proactively this

1:01:28

year and that sucks. Yeah.

1:01:30

I think there's also a darker outcome where.

1:01:33

We. Never get that back when modules old

1:01:35

and this is his second like major major

1:01:37

knee injury as or I would Yeah, was

1:01:39

gonna argue that Browns at twenty one. I

1:01:42

think you could bump all the way to

1:01:44

the bottom of this group here just because

1:01:46

and maybe even below from the next teams

1:01:48

will talk about were like. Arizona

1:01:50

washed in. I'm you're right, those are the two

1:01:53

to highlight that I think those ecosystems could really

1:01:55

jump up like New Orleans. There are some players

1:01:57

on a draft on New Orleans nazi percent of

1:01:59

a their of place the draft their Pittsburgh's and

1:02:01

players I want to draft. Are you from not

1:02:03

overly excited Cleveland other than Amari Cooper I guess

1:02:05

David jokey to there's not a lot names I

1:02:07

want to click that are in a Cleveland brown

1:02:09

yeah I actually went to high as as if

1:02:11

you don't trust the quarterback. And. I

1:02:13

like the support guys are not madly

1:02:15

madly yeah, that loving of a media

1:02:17

Cooper's a backed I player now. I

1:02:20

will say this about. New. Orleans. There.

1:02:22

Was talk about. How dare cargo body like

1:02:25

some? And the raiders? good way to get rid of

1:02:27

home. And the saints really aren't love with them. His.

1:02:29

That's weren't that bad. And he

1:02:32

is actually really good down the street and I

1:02:34

know you Good for you Got on false windows,

1:02:36

you got on false four dollars. You can open

1:02:38

false windows and I'm screwing up a metaphor here.

1:02:40

but you can trick yourself if you just pick

1:02:43

certain segments of production. If you don't have a

1:02:45

reason to back it up, your did the play

1:02:47

calling change to the left tackle comeback was or

1:02:49

something significant of a personnel. what was the of

1:02:51

what were the opponent's like and all that. But.

1:02:55

Is there crooked nuff at this point? I just

1:02:57

want your car. To. Make Chris Alavi

1:02:59

great to be good enough to ride along on

1:03:01

that train. Every every of Chris Alavi has a

1:03:03

lot of a season. He's been a little bit

1:03:06

better than Gary Wilson, but we always feel it

1:03:08

does chicken left on that bone. If

1:03:10

a lobby has the season I think he's

1:03:12

capable of having than dirt Carson have one

1:03:14

of those. I never trusted them. News like

1:03:16

Quarterback Thirteen. I'd

1:03:18

Final Group here: Twenty six: Las Vegas

1:03:20

Raiders Twenty seven Denver Broncos Twenty eight

1:03:23

L A Chargers Twenty nine New York

1:03:25

Giants. Thirty. Tennessee Titans.

1:03:27

Thirty. One New England Patriots, Thirty

1:03:29

Two Carolina Panthers. Scott: When I

1:03:32

throw these teams out there. Immediately.

1:03:35

I say one of these things as not

1:03:37

look like the other cause we've got like.

1:03:39

Will. Levis. We've got Danny Dimes through

1:03:41

Lock. We've got Bryce Young. We've got

1:03:43

guard or means, you know, connell, we

1:03:45

got low. Next we've got ah, you

1:03:48

know, the Patriots. It's go reset Drake

1:03:50

man And we've got Twenty Eight L

1:03:52

A Chargers just in Herbert. Ah

1:03:55

don't know man I I I realize

1:03:57

that there's not a so like that

1:03:59

a guy. Your that I'm for sure drafting.

1:04:01

They dig the run. Good be good. I think the

1:04:03

past game could be good, but who's gonna benefit beyond

1:04:05

lab a cocky and how high can we really get

1:04:07

on a second round receiver? But that is is the

1:04:10

one thing to say that to me that it's like.

1:04:13

Rookie: Are murky quarterback situations abounding

1:04:15

here? Twenty Six or thirty to.

1:04:18

Accept Twenty eight The L A Chargers. It's

1:04:22

well diagnosed by uses Herbert

1:04:24

doesn't belong with all these

1:04:26

other quarterbacks. I. Feel

1:04:28

like Jim Harbaugh the guy shows up at the

1:04:30

first see the golf course. And everybody

1:04:33

else has new clubs and Harbaugh is going to

1:04:35

be using clubs. Or fifteen years old he's gonna

1:04:37

run the ball to set up the run, to

1:04:39

set up the run. And I do. We all

1:04:42

like glad because yeah I'm I'm pretty sure he

1:04:44

created well and the stuff that you look at

1:04:46

and he steps into this opportunity here and him

1:04:48

in her rather you're gonna click right away. But.

1:04:52

Jim. Harbaugh and inadequate. I think we

1:04:54

all thought it was possible that maybe

1:04:56

the my the draft decorum. Obviously he

1:04:58

went to the other side town but

1:05:00

they want to. Nothing.

1:05:03

That the herbicide rate but they

1:05:05

don't have the personnel. To.

1:05:08

Air it out, they need to be balanced

1:05:10

and car was also on. These guys you're

1:05:13

going to win line of scrimmage or going

1:05:15

to have physical people were we were people

1:05:17

down and everything and. I've

1:05:20

gone from Just and Herbert and eat. The whole

1:05:22

store used to be a useful yeah Cj Shroud

1:05:24

Bright young story right? Can you believe Miami's of

1:05:26

to and front of Justin Herbert? What a mistake

1:05:28

that was an hour Just Herbert is gonna have

1:05:30

all these game. He hit a whole lot again

1:05:32

for his fission. But. He finishes

1:05:35

y two hundred fifty, seven yards and one touchdown

1:05:37

and charging they will maybe one. what a weaker.

1:05:39

The. Did they're just not set up

1:05:41

to have any kind of volume season

1:05:44

for Herbert and is even. I like

1:05:46

Mcconkey. Everybody needs somebody

1:05:48

to. Drag. "Then a little

1:05:50

bit there's nobody to drag Herbert just a

1:05:52

herpes basically and rafol for me and I'd

1:05:54

say, "Nets are you at feel like" If

1:05:57

their contract was tradable, Not. The just

1:05:59

her. That's a bad player but I think

1:06:01

that would have gotten out of the out

1:06:04

there, would have gotten out the Herbert business

1:06:06

in a second and started fresh started with

1:06:08

a new record young adding our our doing

1:06:10

fine with. Rob. Farsi is

1:06:12

his guy from Miss. He would revive with a

1:06:14

lot of quarterbacks. but just the deal and I

1:06:16

don't want to be our i just hurts. Not

1:06:18

good but I feel like the Chargers wanted to

1:06:20

see if there's a way to get out of

1:06:22

this news. Realized there wasn't and so will make

1:06:24

the best of it. Insists: Just a Herbert. There's

1:06:26

no volume Upside: You need some volume here. I

1:06:28

don't see how is going to get it so.

1:06:31

I'm. A guy who's always forever think of the charges

1:06:33

were sleeping giant. This is the year they won the

1:06:35

A of see where this is a year they get

1:06:38

the Apes Championship Game thought the Super Bowl. And

1:06:41

now it's like. I

1:06:43

don't know what to make a Vegas. I know

1:06:45

they had a a bounce after the The Hyde

1:06:47

Pierce last year. They don't have an answer quarterback.

1:06:49

They still have a lot of interesting skill guys.

1:06:51

Nobody saw Powers going there in this. Kind of

1:06:53

an odd said but I think the Chargers are.

1:06:55

The harbor will get the straightened out but it's

1:06:57

gonna be. Here's the thing. When.

1:07:00

They fix it. They're going

1:07:02

to be kinda like what the Titans were with my

1:07:04

for able right? The Good: Try to seventeen the thirteen

1:07:06

you to death. And it's just gonna

1:07:08

be. It's gonna be no fun for for tested

1:07:10

Herbert Andrus. I'm. A little

1:07:12

like those part of me. the things that yeah Jim

1:07:14

Harbaugh going this over those like ten fifteen year old

1:07:16

golf clubs is going to beat. all the guys had

1:07:18

spent a bunch of money on the tailor made clubs

1:07:21

and all the stuff like I think that barbie for

1:07:23

me to start on a golf analogies but I think

1:07:25

you're gonna be a man Part of me just wonders

1:07:27

of like. It's yell

1:07:29

advocaat Yeah the I think we are counting on

1:07:31

Lab. A Cocky your leg of lamb can give

1:07:33

them nine hundred yards this year. I

1:07:35

think Justin Herbert is good enough and I think

1:07:38

if they run the ball well enough, which. May.

1:07:41

Be Gus Edwards's usable? Maybe this Kokomani with

1:07:43

all guys a sleeper. Could we not get

1:07:45

any better? We could see all these like

1:07:47

quitting Johnston and and and and Josh Palmer.

1:07:49

and like their sign a Dj Target Mbs.

1:07:51

One of these guys are like four hundred

1:07:53

five hundred guard receivers and it is a

1:07:55

little like Patrick Mom This I do think

1:07:57

that it's possible for the charges, but. Oh

1:08:00

I think that gives us in her body

1:08:02

a very kept stealing and fantasy in like

1:08:04

twenty five twenty six that's the or maybe

1:08:06

where they rebuild the past game a little

1:08:09

bit more but I'm beyond the charger scott

1:08:11

any other group it let's let's each pick

1:08:13

one offense and maybe and a big in

1:08:15

the same one from this group that we

1:08:17

actually could squint at and see. Some.

1:08:20

Real fantasy viability come out of it. Men:

1:08:25

That's hard at your house and I'm

1:08:27

gonna say the Broncos. Only

1:08:30

because. I believe

1:08:32

in some peyton. And they

1:08:35

did get. A fantasy vi

1:08:37

of a year for Russell Wilson and

1:08:39

it was yeah to divorce is real

1:08:41

life quality of play to. What?

1:08:43

Is that said in a lot of it was

1:08:45

core on certain with those great boundary plays and

1:08:47

then. Divide. That they just

1:08:49

never ran in touchdowns. All of absurd

1:08:51

the air. But Peyton was the quarterback

1:08:53

Drew Brees as he had that one

1:08:55

superpower one Pro bowl trip in San

1:08:57

Diego. But. He was not

1:08:59

Drew Brees walk in hall of famer We went

1:09:02

to New Orleans famously he goes to Miami, fills

1:09:04

the physical him in Nyc save it doesn't happen.

1:09:06

but have you have to a breeze? A lot

1:09:08

of credit. I'm sorry up a lot of credit

1:09:10

for Breeze taking that your two steps up into

1:09:12

one of the best quarterbacks we ever saw. A

1:09:15

lot of things went to a success as many

1:09:17

parents as we know but I'm still in on

1:09:19

Sean Payton and never Last year. They.

1:09:21

Lose to Miami. What? We

1:09:23

two weeks three below seventy points.

1:09:26

You. You were making the case. His temper

1:09:28

the worst team football right? and they almost

1:09:31

made the playoffs. You know a knew what

1:09:33

Wilson once. I think seven and eight as

1:09:35

a starter, eight nine or something like that.

1:09:37

I mean I still believe in Sean Payton.

1:09:39

If this is legitimate or who knows, maybe

1:09:41

Pulsar Ab abs have sediments the domestically for

1:09:43

a while. You still interesting skill town on

1:09:46

this team. I'm. Going to see the Broncos.

1:09:49

Also. Tennessee Titans. Ah. You

1:09:52

look at that often, it's It's pretty

1:09:54

decent. It's pretty easily talented, right? If

1:09:57

the office of line can can be

1:09:59

better, which. They drafted Jc late

1:10:01

them appears Rothys in his second year.

1:10:03

They have Bill Callahan coaching that unit

1:10:05

up. That's pretty critical. I. Don't

1:10:08

know what the ceiling fantasy wise is for all

1:10:10

these guys, but. It's. A pretty viable

1:10:12

receiving room. It's it's. not the sexiest, it's

1:10:14

not be. It's certainly not the youngest, but

1:10:16

younger Hopkins that acts cabin really a flanker,

1:10:18

and Tyler Boyd just as like a solid

1:10:21

slot receiver. I I like this theory I

1:10:23

lot. Listen, nobody was saying you just miss

1:10:25

users a big saw or to be that's

1:10:27

that's a. Pretty. Of there's nobody

1:10:29

was saying the trail and Burke's is a big

1:10:31

slot receiver in the Nfl more than me coming

1:10:34

into the draft. Now it's like oh this Boudreau

1:10:36

burst big fuck yeah you nobody was saying that

1:10:38

in these pre draft right up except you boy

1:10:40

here because by the way played in the slot

1:10:42

in college he was always destined to be that

1:10:44

have a guy now but they don't want this

1:10:46

coach doesn't want to go through that experience in

1:10:48

and understand to soak as Burke's has been a

1:10:50

good or reliable Nfl players like or south or

1:10:52

tolerable in there and he's by going to be

1:10:54

solid in maybe Berkshire some the summer but maybe

1:10:56

doesn't but so that's a pretty good receiver trio.

1:10:58

Tickle. Quangos a talented guy. Price was

1:11:00

a maximizing the last coaching staff. They

1:11:03

have two running backs. You can be

1:11:05

useful so I don't know I could

1:11:07

see something again. Maybe it's not league

1:11:09

winning potential but I something coming out

1:11:11

a Tennessee. I almost said Tennessee And

1:11:14

I'm glad you brought them up because

1:11:16

this is the. Sneaky

1:11:18

were really doing all we can to

1:11:20

help our quarterback to set him up

1:11:22

for success. He talks will be offered

1:11:24

sublime reinforcements. The receiver for reinforcements. And.

1:11:27

then the players like chick who around who could take

1:11:29

a step forward. Slash play way

1:11:31

to happen And I'll say this for love us

1:11:33

and obviously his his rookie year has hits and

1:11:35

misses you. Yes, the four touchdowns in the first

1:11:38

start, but he had some games where he looked

1:11:40

like what he was an untested. Rookie:

1:11:43

But. He was poised the moment

1:11:45

never look too big for him and although

1:11:47

the receivers he had he has in this

1:11:49

the first three are all guys who are

1:11:51

really good. Li three or four years ago

1:11:53

the different versions of good. Now I'll isolating

1:11:56

Calvin Ridley as maybe a little bit more

1:11:58

ceiling this is commonly held. I. I

1:12:00

don't. What's your take on tap that he shows the heel

1:12:02

to? but. The bottom line is this:

1:12:05

There are teams that and and you can

1:12:07

only your draft with the picture have a

1:12:09

me every t make. The Patriots really needed

1:12:11

a left tackle. they didn't get that laughed

1:12:13

at home the draft. Now they have to

1:12:15

try to figure that out and a see

1:12:17

It seems like everything they were doing in

1:12:19

free agency or just about everything they're doing

1:12:21

free agency and everything they were doing with

1:12:23

their roster building the last two months Like

1:12:25

okay but give Will love his chance, let's

1:12:27

set him up, says it to succeed. and

1:12:29

yeah I think they definitely could jump a

1:12:31

tear here. They could actually be a fun

1:12:33

team. Because. I they've

1:12:36

made logic, they be logical moves but

1:12:38

not splashy move. try to didn't Tyler

1:12:40

Boyd is not going to be the

1:12:42

lead story on the nfl.com when you

1:12:44

sign a guy like that but he's

1:12:46

a bass player. They need that. Think.

1:12:48

They might be a consistent routes that he can.

1:12:50

maybe there could be right, but. Yet

1:12:53

you know the Tyler Boyd your twelve yards

1:12:55

catch on thirty seven they need that. Hawkins

1:12:57

was better last year than I expected. Maybe

1:12:59

the whisper the right stuff to Ridley who

1:13:01

had a really strange yeah if like every

1:13:03

game for Jacksonville either was like terrible or

1:13:05

he was wide receiver. eight. A. There

1:13:07

was no middle ground. Like to see some more consistency.

1:13:09

There is a new cig. A

1:13:11

comparable. We. Would

1:13:14

spoil a little bit with some rookie tight ends

1:13:16

and offices a Port of was the biggest hitter

1:13:18

it or of that but. Usually

1:13:20

tenants take a while my could this be

1:13:22

a breakout season for him? He? I don't

1:13:25

know what they're getting from Pollard of a

1:13:27

maybe Spears as the back anyway and I'm

1:13:29

curious if you have a preference. fair but

1:13:31

there's more. Tennessee has usually been okay. get

1:13:34

away with toughness and line play and we

1:13:36

only one guy off into your worry about

1:13:38

baby to and that's pretty much at now.

1:13:40

They don't have the Derrick Henry or the

1:13:43

Aj Brown flashy guy anymore. Yum. The details

1:13:45

actually pretty good player at peak. but baby

1:13:47

the depth here is better than the has

1:13:49

been in. A lotta. That's. Look,

1:13:51

I'm using A and I think you might overlook the

1:13:54

Titans is just like. It's. Not the

1:13:56

same old titans of the my grandma and

1:13:58

which may be good, maybe bad, We'll see

1:14:00

what happens there. And. But it

1:14:02

is going to be very different and I'll say

1:14:04

this for will ever psyche thrown up a James

1:14:06

Winston like this Errands Amos wins in the generations

1:14:08

Dame Swinson com for him, Seamus, twins and twenty

1:14:10

five point five percent of his passes last year

1:14:13

and small sample. Were. A deep throw

1:14:15

according to Fantasy Points data will levis.

1:14:17

Twenty. Point eight percent with much

1:14:19

more volume. Know. Lot

1:14:21

of the the next highest quarterbacks. It took

1:14:23

over two hundred drawbacks last year. It's.

1:14:26

Like Joe Flacco at Fourteen Point Two percent

1:14:28

Justin Feals Fourteen Point one percent decide watch

1:14:30

and forty percent so well with nothing else.

1:14:32

God will Levis is gonna push it, but

1:14:35

Sky need that. We need that man. A

1:14:37

workout video which taking and dunking and I'm

1:14:39

so glad you brought a fantasy points by

1:14:41

their data. Sweet it is so good as

1:14:44

your John Hansen's got buried Graham Barfield to

1:14:46

Dolan on on on. They have an all

1:14:48

star team over there and and much loved

1:14:50

to the point guys who vog given us

1:14:53

a peek behind the day wallets. It's fantastic

1:14:55

I think. You'll love it. Mattered to what

1:14:57

degree decide to use it. I'm still trying to

1:14:59

learn half of it myself, but it's a great

1:15:01

day to sweet and a year and a minute.

1:15:04

but some yeah, Jamie Swinson really isn't in our

1:15:06

life anymore. If we can give me a game

1:15:08

as once in two point, I'm Alan. Hey,

1:15:11

have to show off and can't get healthy A can't stay

1:15:13

Healthy James months of might just be back in our lives

1:15:15

again. As the Cleveland Browns, I'm here for it. I

1:15:18

joined the heck out of the Flacco for I know

1:15:20

it was flutie as hell and and what happened in

1:15:22

the plaza? the every was waiting for that shoe to

1:15:25

drop. it. I. Would and as Adam

1:15:27

whistle on Shall Watson, I just wanna watch somebody

1:15:29

else play quarterback for them. If it's same as

1:15:31

when said, I'd be all for it. I.

1:15:34

Got that is going to do it by.

1:15:36

Ah, appreciate you doing this. Hopefully this was

1:15:38

instructive for the listener and for you Scott

1:15:40

In, you know and I got a piece

1:15:42

the file here. Hopefully this helps crystallize a

1:15:44

little bit. are your thoughts with these rankings.

1:15:47

For. Are definitely helps you you deaf We had

1:15:49

impact to slay chaser had impact may be getting

1:15:51

side about the bears realize he of the i

1:15:53

have them to I but and this is what

1:15:55

this is the fun stuff man this is where

1:15:57

we start to figure out the Suisse were watering

1:15:59

the. Plant and Opponents gonna grow and we're going

1:16:01

to have takes in the room and draft of women

1:16:03

have shares of where the have stances you know and

1:16:06

and the saw this hour plus that we spent was

1:16:08

really helpful for be trying to figure out what I

1:16:10

think because I'm not even sure I think about half

1:16:12

the stuff yet but it's a blast. try to figure

1:16:14

it out with you and I. I just can't wait

1:16:16

for the next eight months. Man. Or

1:16:19

a it's you don't even have to
