We are officially in NFL draft week. We are in the end game, Brett. And this is our final NFL mock draft that we're going to do here on fantasy football daily.

And then the big thing starts. So we got the whole first round on Thursday night, followed up by day two and day three. Fantasy points is going to be covering each and every pick, each and every round. We're going to be on the air a lot, Brian. It's going to be a lot of fun. It's going to be a ton of fun. Dude, the coverage is going to be sick. Theo, you know, I just got to, I'm going to put this out there for the fans, for the listeners.

You know, last year, I've basically been tied to the hip with Scott Barrett on these draft shows for years. But Scott being unwilling to stand on business this year, I said, you know what? I need a new second chair. And I'm calling in the heavy hitters here with Theo, yourself and Thomas Sipple. We're going to, we're going to be the front runners on the show this year. We'll have Scott join us to talk about how much he dislikes certain prospects. and yet he still ranked them second overall on his big board. Whatever.

We'll still have them on the do that. But point being, me, you, Thomas, we're going to be getting dirty for eight hours on Thursday, seven hours on Friday. And we got a star-studded guest cast lined up as well. Yeah, it's going to be the best fantasy football coverage anywhere available. And if you're listening to this on the podcast version, we're going to be doing some cool podcasts like recaps,

winners and losers shows. Brett and I are going to be doing that on Friday right after day. day one. We're going to have a lot of stuff like that. But if you want to watch the actual NFL draft, you've got to subscribe to Fantasy Points YouTube. Just go to YouTube, type in Fantasy Points. Make sure you're subscribing. And if you set up notifications, you can find out when we drop a video, have some really, really cool stuff in there. Brett, let's get it started here. This is the beginning of the first round. You're at the 101. Easiest pick on the board. Yeah, easy because it's pretty much determined already.

Yeah, Cam Ward, quarterback, Miami, formerly Washington State, formerly incarnate word. You know, I don't know that this is the way I would necessarily go, but it is what it is. This is what they're going to do. So we're just going to try to be predictive here. Yeah, I mean, Cam Ward, the 101, for Dynasty rookie drafts, I think it's interesting because we're a lot of times we're seeing who people are projecting to be their RB2 in the class. Omari and Hampton for most, Travion Henderson, for some. leapfrogging Cam Ward, do you think that's the correct move? Or do you think Ward is a little bit underrated as a dynasty asset right now?

He's got the insulation of being the 101. First overall picks have like a long, long room to fail. A lot of times if they fail on Team 1, they get picked up by Team 2. Your thoughts on Ward. Yeah, it's funny. I just did a Superflex, tight-in premium draft before the draft. I'm in a couple, actually. And Ward just went fifth in that league.

and this is a league with heavy hitters, like smart guys, I think that's a little much. Like, as much as a Cam Ward, not a Cam Ward guy I am, I still would take him second or third for sure. So I was a little shocked to see that. Yeah, I think just even if you don't like Cam Ward, the value in taking a quarterback that gets drafted, one overall is huge because he's going to retain that value for a long time.

And the chances of him actually increasing that value are pretty significantly high. So, yeah, I've, I've, I for sure agree with you there. Yeah, I think Ward, like when we talk about Ward, maybe he doesn't have this insane upside, but I think that some low-end QB-1 seasons are in the wheelhouse. And I think Tennessee is going to do a lot to try to put players around him. The Brian Callahan system wants to be pass-happy. So I think there's a little bit of room to run as a fantasy asset for Ward, easy pick at the 101.

And the 102 for me feels really easy now as well. I think that all, like all signs are indicating that the Cleveland Browns are going to select Travis Hunter at the 102. And I think that if we don't see, I think that it's almost like the gambling markets are telling you that Hunter is this massive favorite now to go with the 102. So I think if we actually see Cleveland do anything radical, it would be trading out of this pick and accumulating some other picks. But I think more likely than not, Browns stay on the clock, select Travis Hunter at the one. It sounds like Hunter would play both ways for them. It seems like his camp really wants to continue doing what he did at Colorado and having him be this two-way electric threat. He said he'd rather retire than not do it.

So I think for me, it's like Kevin Stefansky needs to hold onto his job. Travis Hunter is going to be one of the better players on their offense. And when I put Travis Hunter out there with guys like Jerry Judy, David and Joku, Cedric Tillman, that's not so bad, Brett. And I think it's sort of a pretty exciting group of receivers. And then I factor in the fact that Denzel Ward is like a true number one corner in the NFL. It's not like Hunter needs to come in and rescue the Brown secondary like he would on some other landing spots. Ward's like a four-time pro bowler.

So I think it's a really good situation for him to contribute on both sides of the ball with this team. Would you agree that Cleveland's one of the teams that would probably play him the most on both sides? Yeah, sure. But I would like to just inform the audience that it is 2025, and it's a quarterback league. And the Cleveland Browns have yet to realize that we are in the era of the quarterback. Who is playing quarterback for this team? I'll tell you who's going to play quarterback for this team. It's going to be Jalen Milro.

They're going to trade back in the end of the first round. It's going to be Cleveland Brown selecting him there. And I think that's in Pittsburgh, though. There you go. I mean, but I think that the way that this draft is going, there's going to be potentially four quarter, well, we'll find out, you know, how this mock draft plays out. But I certainly if we, if we were doing trades here, then maybe there would be a fourth quarterback selected. Tyler Shuck looks like he might be also a first half of the second round type selection. So the quarterbacks after this whole, after this whole like these quarterbacks are all going to fall.

This is a terrible class. Maybe it's not a fantastic class, but you're showing that the NFL teams, like you said, it's a quarterback. league, it's a go and get your quarterback on a rookie contract league, a lot of these guys are going to go off the board. And I think with Cleveland having that early, early second round pick, there's going to be chances for them to trade back into round one or stay put. And if one of these guys falls, just select them there at the beginning of round two. Yeah, so I, maybe I'm different than everyone. I'm in the camp that not only is there going to be four quarterbacks taken in the first round. It's going to be four quarterbacks taken by pick 21. There's not going to be a quarterback to

trade back in for, I don't think, unless you're coming all the way from 33 to like 18 or something. And a lot of teams don't want to move that far back. So I don't know. I'm, I don't know. Yeah, I mean, we saw it. We saw it last year. Last year was certainly a better quarterback class. But, you know, the guys like Michael Panix and Bo Nix, Vegas was projecting them to be like right on the Mendoza line of the first round and the second round. They were like over under of 31. And then we saw panics go inside the top 10 and Bo Nix go a few picks behind him. J.J. McCarthy, obviously, in that range, too.

It's like NFL teams are going to steam these guys up. I think if your prediction is correct, they could go even higher, Brett, because teams are going to look to leapfrog one another and make sure that they get their particular quarterback. Like, you, and I see a lot of mock drafts now where you're seeing one of these guys go at 21 to the Steelers, I think more likely than not, if Pittsburgh's dead set on selecting a quarterback, they probably move up a few picks to get their guy. that's for sure a possibility.

I was also, I was correctly, I was correct on predicting six QBs in the first round last year. So I feel good about this. I don't know. Yeah. No, for sure. It's, I mean, you run pure this time of year and make sure you're heading to fantasy points next week.

Brett is going to be dropping a three round, is three round NFL mock draft, the final one. And then you'll do a quick, a quicker one, I imagine, the day of the NFL draft. I'll try to do one of those as well.

We're both competing. against one another in the huddle contest. That's always a lot of fun. We're hoping to represent fantasy points. Hey, maybe one, two fantasy points in the finishers. That would be pretty good this year. I'm also going to be releasing my AFC and NFC team needs for fantasy football, a little more fantasy-centric than Brett's article.

So we're really doing wall-to-wall coverage of everything NFL draft related. And then the week after the NFL draft, we are going to be helping you get ready for your dynasty rookie drafts deep dive into reevaluating these players, re-ranking them and letting you know the ways to win in your dynasty rookie drafts and the maximum strategy for you to set your team up for years to come. Let's keep our NFL draft going before we break here. This is sort of for me where the draft starts. The New York Bynets at 3.

Is this to simply New York just selects Abdul Carter or do you think this could be a wild out there pick? Which way are you leaning here at the 103, Brett? Yeah. So until I was recently convinced. convinced that Shadur would go number two overall to the Cleveland Browns. That doesn't seem like that's happening. So I'm pivoting from my initial Giants pick of Ashton Jenty.

And I'm going to go with Shadur Sanders here. I don't believe the slide is real. I think possibly what's happened and why we're hearing about teams not liking Shadur is because Shadur in his camp, Dion, specifically, they're very specific about where they want him to go. And I think they've told teams they're not interested, some teams. And so billionaires don't like getting punked. And so they come back with, you know,

well, we're not interested in you. And you tell enough agents that, you tell enough Adam Schafters of the world that and word's going to get out that, hey, there's teams that don't like Shudor Sanders. Well, guess what? There's teams that Shadur Sanders doesn't like. So I'm going Shador Sanders here at three overall. I can't believe the slide is real.

There's no way the Giants sit there again and don't pick a quarterback. It's just not humanly possible to me. I can't even, if they do, Theo, I'm going to be insufferable in our draft covers. That would just be all-time, horrible decision-making from that front office. I think the owner might force a pick here because he sat and by and watched his team pass on J.J. McCarthy, pass on, you know, they had opportunities to draft, what, three of the guys that went. So, I don't know. I think what's interesting is I had New York selecting Shudur Sanders in my mock draft, which came out at Fantasy Point. last week. And it just makes too much sense. I'm totally with you. And I think the ability to

select a quarterback when you don't have to trade additional draft capital is just something that New York can't pass up. Last year, they were offering the sixth overall pick and this year's pick to move up and get Drake May. Now, I have Drake May ahead of Shudor Sanders at this point in the process. But at the end of the day, Shadurr Sanders has experience playing behind not so good, if not bad offensive line play. I think that's going to help him as a pro. He's also a notch above what New York has on the roster right now. And six months from now, nine months from now,

he's going to be way ahead of these guys. And I think that he's got the right mentality to make it in New York where you have a ton of media scrutiny, a ton of guys all over you. Like, this has been a well-known player for years and a guy who certainly enjoys the spotlight. And he's got Malik neighbors to pass the ball to. So everything's sort of set up ecosystem-wise for Sanders.

I also think, Brett, that Sanders at three overall, whether you think it's going to be New York or not, maybe Sanders is not their guy. But the fact that New Orleans is now in this mix for a quarterback, this could potentially be a big trade-up spot. New Orleans is notorious for moving up and not down. They haven't traded down since 2006. So potentially moving up to three and then New York moving down to nine, they could still get a Jackson Dart, a Jalen Milrow at nine, which, make sense for them as well, at least in terms of covering the position. So we're three picks in the book. We're going to take a quick break. We come back.

I'm picking for the new England Patriots, and we're going to keep this thing going.

Welcome back, Fantasy Football Daily, Theo Greminger and Brett Whitefield, our final NFL mock draft podcast. I'm going to stick here at four. I'll make this one simple. New England at four, it seems like this would be the Abdul Carter pick. But Brett, you've talked about this for time and time again. Every time I suggest a different position for New England, we come back and we say that they have this glaring holes on the offensive line. I've sort of capitulated here. I haven't projected this player to go here yet, but there seems to be a lot of steam for Will Campbell

in terms of him moving up somewhere in this top six. For me, I think Will Campbell goes four, and if not, he goes five to Jacksonville. I'm going to say Will Campbell off the board here at the 104. I think there'll be a lot of pressure on him to perform exceedingly well with this sort of can't miss prospect like Abdul Carter. They're passing on and passing on other team needs. but at the end of the day, protecting Drake May is the most important thing.

Will Campbell was like a two-time All-American level player. I think he's got big-time versatility on the offensive line. He can play several spots. This was a very successful college player, and I think he'll be a successful pro player as well. So Will Campbell off the board at the 104, New England in the books. Your thoughts on that pick? Yeah, I mean, I like the position, like I've been preaching this entire offseason.

However, it's risky to pass on a guy. like Carter for a guy with a lot of question marks and Will Campbell. And I don't think, like, people can mock the arm length thing all they want, but it's real. And when you watch his tape, it's real. He's got super late hands because he's overcompensating for short arm syndrome. And so when you say he's got positional versatility, I don't disagree with that. But when you're drafting a guy at fourth overall, he better be a Hall of Fame guard if that's where you're going to play him.

Like that, seriously, the positional drop off and value there is substantial. Now we saw Peter Scoronsky go to Tennessee, what, at seven overall two years ago? Yes, yes. And they immediately kicked him to left guard. He had longer arms of Will Campbell did. So I don't know. And he was very similar prospect, real technically sound. But point being, like, yeah, worst case scenario, he's probably a really good guard for you.

I happen to think his best position will be center in the NFL, but you got to try him at left tackle because the situation you're in in New England, plus the positional value there. It's just, it's a little risky to pass on the guy that Carter. for Will Campbell, but I do agree with you that they will probably do this. And for me, Armand Membu is my favorite offensive line prospect in this draft class. I think he's just as a much higher ceiling than Campbell and some of the other guys. Just out of curiosity, your favorite offensive line prospect in this draft class is? Yeah, Armand Membou, yeah. So there you go.

And I think Membu will, spoiler alert, we'll probably hear his name called in the next few picks. Keep us going here at the 105. Is this sprint to the podium time for Jacksonville? Yeah, this is a big wrench I wasn't expecting. I thought you'd go Carter here and then we'd take the guy I want at Jacksonville. So it's tough because I don't know that we can do Abdul Carter here, Theo. So which way we related? Josh Allen Hines and Trayvon Walker.

I don't know. Too much invested in an edge to go with another edge here. I think you got to go Mason Graham here, to be honest with you. I mean, Mason Graham's been a huge favorite of ours. Certainly this has been a player that was a huge standout for Michigan when they won the national title and was probably the best player in the game when they upset Ohio State this year. It's Mason Graham at five is what the betting markets are telling us. I think this would be another one where this sort of sets up a huge decision for Vegas at six. And I'm OTC with Vegas.

I think here I'm going to actually go Abdul Carter, which was not the plan, but I think Pete Carroll and this organization will be running to the podium. And this is a player where it's a win now pick. Like I know that Ashton Genti's been heavily mocked, but if Abdul Carter slides, and I've seen some people suggesting that Abdul Carter,

if he starts to slide, it could end up being like down to Carolina at eight. I think that's crazy. I think if he's there at six, Vegas just runs to the podium. Easiest selection in draft. Abduh Carter and all of a sudden everybody the next day is giving a big old A in their draft draft ranking ratings for Vegas.

Yeah. And to be honest, Malcolm Coons is a fine player. He's been hurt a lot, though. And I think he's not stopping you from taking Abdul Carter. So it makes a lot of sense. A sneaky dark horse here, I'd like to throw out just for the fans. Judea Baron from Texas Corner. I think this is a sneaky spot for him if they decided not to go Gentie or or a Carter in this situation.

Pete Carroll loves guys like Jaday Barron. He checks every single box you're looking for. Pete's last draft in Seattle, he drafted a guy by the name of Devin Witherspoon, fifth overall. And there was a ton of smoke about them potentially drafting Pejohn Robinson. Long story short,

he went with the cornerback at fifth overall. And so I think Jaday Barron, very similar player to Devin Witherspin. So I just wanted to throw that out there. Sneaky, sneaky potential there. Seven here, Theo. I'm going to go with our guy Armand Membue. There you go.

I think this is a great spot for him. he can play right tackle still, right, because they drafted Olu Foshanu last year. Aaron Glenn coming from the Lions, you know he's going to prioritize that offensive line and that that run game. It doesn't necessarily mean they won't go defense here, but I do think you look at that offensive line situation, they want to get that right. It's been a long time since New York's had an elite offensive line. And Armand Membu pairing with, you know, Elijah Vera Tucker and Olu Fushanu from last year,

you got some pieces. You got some dudes now on that line you can work with and get that run game going. So, yeah, Membu would be is like, I live on Long Island, and it seems like the three names that are being associated with the Jets are Membou, Campbell, and Tyler Warren. And then if Mason Graham was still on the board, they'd give him heavy consideration. It seems like that's the way all signs are pointing for New York. It's a fairly easy team to predict. They really, really want to get that run game going. And Membu would would make that offensive line just actually pretty sick. So I think that's a fantastic value to get our favorite, offensive linemen in the draft class at seven overall. Eight overall, this has been one where I think a lot of people are going to project guys like Jelon Walker to go here to Carolina. There's certainly going to be the Tet McMillan backers. But when we look at the gambling markets,

Tyler Warren going inside of the top 10 overall picks has been heavily projected. Now, Carolina would be a shocking team to select them. But I think that Carolina pulls the trigger, takes Tyler Warren at the eighth overall pick. I know you're going to like this pick, but when we look at Carolina, it's a, they need, they need certainly edge rushers. They were a team that really couldn't get to the quarterback last year defensively, and that makes a lot of sense for them. But I think Warren does so many things for them in the passing game. This has also been a pick where Greg Branos did a article for us at Fantasy Points, CoachSpeak Index, really, really fun one,

where he thinks this might be the value gambling pick for Warren. where the team has sort of been right in that wheelhouse of the markets sort of thinking they're in the mix to select Warren. And when we look at Carolina's needs, they need pass catchers. And Warren is a guy that I think is a better prospect than any wide receiver in this draft class. It's a different sort of number one target, but one that I think that Bryce Young could sort of lock into. Tyler Warren could be 125 targets out the gate. and I think really, really help Bryce Young and this offense.

Your thoughts on this shock pick. Yeah, I mean, it is a shock pick. I can see the logical path to get here, though, for sure. I do kind of agree that I think offense here in general is sneaky. Everyone's mocking the edge defenders. But when you look at what Bryce had to go through earlier in his career, they invested a lot into that last offseason, but they got to keep going, man. They don't have enough yet to support that ecosystem.

system. So getting Warren here, I think would be, that'd be awesome. It would stink for Jatavian Senators, who I felt like had a really solid rookie season. But yeah, I mean, if you don't like a receiver here and you want a pass catching help, Warren would be a dude to go with for sure. So, okay, so keep us going here. The 109, this is now a potential quarterback pick. Does New Orleans pull the trigger and draft their quarterback right here? Yeah, they're going to go Ole Miss QB Jackson Dart here. I also think Jalen Milrose in play, the more I've dove into this situation. They've done work on both these guys, like a lot of work. I think Millrow probably is, they were hoping to maybe trade back into the first for him,

but they're just going to stand here and go Jackson Dart. And by the way, because of this, because of the Carolina pick at eight and the need for New Orleans of the draft, a quarterback at nine, I think the pick to trade up to is eight. Like if there's a team that likes Jackson Dart or really likes Jalen Milrow and they're scared New Orleans is going to snipe them, I think eight is the spot to get to. And so Carolina, who also is light in the pants with draft capital, right? They're missing their second round pick, I believe. Is that, did I just say a true statement?

I think I did. Yes, Carolina's missing the second round pick. But they do have the Rams second round pick. So they go, you know, they don't pick against. It's a large gap between picks. Yeah. So they might want to trade back here to recoup some of that draft capital. They've lost from the, was it the, the Bryce Young trade when they moved up to get

Brice Young. So anyways, long story short. I think this is a pivotal point in the draft in that first round where you might see the first trade-up. So Jackson Dart, it is. And he's my favorite QB in the class. We don't need to rehash why. You can go read my prospect profile on fantasy points.com. But he's a stud.

So this becomes an easy pick. Chicago assumed Ashton Genti was going to go six overall to the Raiders. They probably had contingency plans that involved something of an offensive lineman. I think Tyler Warren would be in play here. run to the podium type pick. Ashton Genty at the 110 to Chicago. Any pushback on that? Or is this just a no-brainer?

No, if the board fell, I can't see Ben Johnson pass on Action Genty. And Ash and Genty as a Chicago bear, how enthusiastic would you be about his fantasy upside specifically for the 2025 season? Huge. Here's a thing. Like, we saw Ben do the two-headed monster thing. in Detroit with Gibbs and Monty. Well, guess what?

Gentie doesn't really need to do that. He's big enough. He can kind of play both roles. It doesn't mean there won't be another back that's in the mix. But I don't think you'll have to see that 50-50 split. I think it would be like a 70, 30, 80, 20. At 80-20 in Ben Johnson's scheme, that's going to be a pretty situation for Genty. He's already going to be RB4 dynasty-wise, right?

I think he'd probably go up to RB3 for me if this were to happen this way. Like this is way better than Vegas, for example. Like, completely agree. Completely agree with that one. You also have the weather for Chicago where end of the season, it could be lean on Ashton Genty in order to win games. Like everything about this I would love. And I think it's interesting is when we talk about Ben Johnson,

this is a guy that we're super enthusiastic for in terms of his ability to run an NFL team, certainly to run an NFL offense. But when we start trying to associate tendencies for guys who are offensive coordinators, it's how much of the split. backfield, was it where it was Dan Campbell kind of influencing that decision, or was it Ben Johnson trying to divvy out the touches? We'll find out really quickly, but I agree with you. He could be a bell cow coach, and Ashton Genty can make a running back by committee coach become a bell cow coach really, really quickly. We're going to take a quick break. We come back, your OTC with the San Francisco

Welcome back. Fantasy Football Daily, Theo Greminger, Brett Whitefield. Make sure you are subscribing to Fantasy Points YouTube. Brett and I are going to be covering the entire NFL draft all three days. And we're doing recap shows. It's going to be a busy but very, very fun weekend. It feels like we've been preparing for this draft for like a year now. So I'm ready for it to get started and have actual picks on the board and be able to react to them rather than predict them. But this is a lot of fun as well.

San Francisco to 11, there's been some recent rumors that San Francisco is trying to trade up. In my mock draft, I had them moving up to get Armand Membu. do you think if they do trade up, it's because they are targeting an offensive lineman or is it trying to go get a Mason Graham? Like, if they move up, they have 11 picks in this draft, which way do you think San Francisco would be headed

in the guy they're targeting? Yeah, my most recent mock, I have them also moving up for one of the, he's either Campbell or a memo, I don't remember. But yeah, so similar thought process. They have the picks to burn. I also think they're a sneaky QB spot, Theo. people are going to laugh at me.

But I really do. They're in a weird contract situation with Brock Purdy where he's massively overperformed his draft status. And it's like, I don't know that he's put enough on tapes of warrant 50 million a year. So maybe they don't want to make that decision. QB should be on the menu.

However, let's just pretend like I didn't say that. And they're not invested in the QB. I think we're going to go offensive line here. They need everything. They're a really hard team to mock, Theo, because they need corners like really bad.

They need trench play on both sides. in defense, they need edge and tackle, both three technique and nose tackle. So they are like, they're a mess. And I think this is kind of a weird year for them where they're kind of where Buffalo was a year ago, where they kind of have to retool this whole thing where the Rams were two years ago, where it's like, you know, this might be a down year. We got a retool. And then in a year or two, we'll be back to where we were.

With that said, this gives them the license to draft a player coming off of a major injury. We talked about their need to improve in the trenches. Josh Simmons from Ohio State is going to be my pick here. And I think this is probably a surprise pick for some. They've done a lot of work on Simmons. If he didn't get hurt, he would have been a top 10 pick. I stand on that. I really do believe that.

With Trent Williams still on the roster, they have the ability to wait Simmons out. And I think that's cool. If he does come back healthy this year and you really like him, well, guess what? He's got experience playing right tackle as well. So you can slide him over to the right side and you're getting value there. So I really think this is a great spot for Simmons because

the 49ers are in a spot where they can kind of wait him out a little bit. I think what's interesting about Simmons is I agree with you. I think that if he never got hurt, he'd be a guy that was in the mix to be the first offensive lineman off the board. And what's interesting about him is when we talk about Campbell, we talk about Membu, we talk about Kelvin Banks. Like versatility is another word for saying that this guy could also play guard. Simmons is a tackle.

Like he's got the prototypical tackle size. And this has been a guy that performed very, very well at two separate schools. I think Simmons is a guy that I projected to go somewhere a little bit lower, like towards pick 20. But if you see these offensive linemen both off the board, I think this pick makes a lot of sense for San Francisco. And like you said, with 11 picks, they could draft an additional offensive tackle and double tap the position. So I don't mind that at all. Pick 12 for me, Dallas, this is one where there's, I think they're going wide receiver. We heard Stephen Jones make this comment that they need explosive wide receiver.

receiver two. I think they're going to go, they're going to pass up on Matthew Golden, and I think they're going to go the Amari Cooper route, and they're going to draft Ted McMillan. This becomes an instant number two target in the offense and a guy that I think pairs well with CD Lamb, certainly a guy where we don't love this landing spot for fantasy football because it caps his upside as a target earner. But this pick makes total sense. Dallas doesn't have to move up. they get the best wide receiver in the draft in Tet McMillan, a guy that even as a wide receiver prospect, I still have Ted McMillan ahead of Travis Hunter. I'm sort of still in that camp.

McMillan's been a guy that we've talked about for like a year now, Brett, as a guy that could be a potentially really, really strong wide receiver in the NFL. And now I think he slides into a number two role. He'll still have fantasy value, but the fantasy ceiling gets capped playing next to CD Lamb. Yeah, I mean, does it though? I mean, I think, well, I'll add it to you. It's sort of like a high quality, really good 125 targets versus a he's getting every single peppered with manufactured targets as 155 target guy.

I tend to lean towards the, I'll take my chances with the higher target total. But I understand what you're saying. It could be a really efficient season for Tet. And when we talked about Dallas, like when Lamb was on the come up and Amari Cooper was in a very strong position of his career. Like those two guys coexisted next to one another. I think that's sort of the dream scenario here when you add Ted McMillard to this offense where Dallas with Dak Prescott, those two guys, this is an offense we can

start getting really excited about. Yeah. And here's a thing. Dallas has routinely been one of these teams that ranks in the top five in dropbacks per season. Dak Prescott's led the league in dropbacks, I think twice. So like they have nobody else. CD Lamb and nobody else, right?

So I mean, Jalen Tolbert doesn't scare me. The dude that Jonathan Mingo doesn't scare me. Jake Ferguson doesn't scare me at all. So like I think you could still push that target total up beyond 125 even. And it will be an efficient 125. And it's a perfect compliment to C.D. Lamb as well. So I really like kind of the pairing there. I think it'd be a really nice pair.

Okay. So take us away here. we've got the Miami Dolphins at 13. This has been a team where some people are projecting offensive linemen for them, some are projecting defensive back. Others say they maybe could just take a edge rusher. Which way are you leaning here at 13 for Miami? Yeah, all of what you just said is true,

but they don't have corners on their roster. They're slated to start Storm Duck right now. That name sounds made up. It sounds made up, former Oregon player, right. Cam Smith is not worked out. He's a second round pick a couple years ago. Ethan Bonner is another corner on the, like they don't have anyone. And now they're the rumored to be, you know, looking to move on from Jalen Ramsey. So I'm going cornerback, Jada Barron from Texas. He's a top 10 player to me in this class. Love the guy. Fits what they do.

He's got a lot of Jaylon Ramsey in him, actually. So that's kind of crazy. Really good fit. It can play on the outside or on the inside for them. Just an all around tremendous player. They, I mean, they don't have a choice. They have to add cornerback bodies that are good, like fast. So I'm going, I'm going Jaday Barron here. Yeah. And you're certainly better at evaluating the cornerbacks than I am, but Jaday Barron is awesome. Like, anytime you watch a Texas game, he's really good against the run for a smaller cornerback. And like you said, you can bump him inside. He can defend Nick, like, in like a nickel situation inside. And he can also be a shutdown guy on the outside. So if Barron was just a little bit bigger, I think people would get more excited about

him, but he's awesome. It's a great fit for Miami. 14th overall for me, this is another kind of, it's not quite run to the podium time. I think there's going to be some people in the building that want to draft an interior lineman. I think Trevor Booker's name will be in play. Guys like that, I think Kelvin Banks here might be in play. But for me, Colston Loveland, it's it's such a like how do I how do I elevate a questionable quarterback room with Anthony Richardson competing now with Daniel Jones is you put them in the best possible ecosystem Colston Loveland is a top notch tight end prospect really really athletic really good route runner will really challenge defenses in the middle of the field I think he matches

he actually fits quite well with Michael Pittman and Josh Downs and Alec Pierce and Adonai Mitchell like they suddenly have a all high draft capital receiving group with a ton of size plus downs. That's pretty good right there, Brett. I think they pass up offensive line. They go Colston Loveland off the board at 14. Yeah, I think this is, we're back to some chalk here where we got a little off of chalk for a sec, but I think we're back to some chalk. This is a great, great pick.

I've mocked this at least three or four times this off season. It makes too much sense. It makes too much sense. Like Indianapolis has been a team that's sort of been like continually just piecemealing tight end. And this is a ecosystem in the NFL where it's also a copycat league where you saw what Brock Bowers did last year, saw what Sam LaPorteur did the year before. Trey McBride just had this insane contract. And Colston Loveland, you don't get to Indianapolis. Like we don't know who the quarterback's going to be in two years.

But I think that there's a chance that Colston Loveland is the number one target earner on this team in two years. So I think the fit is good. For sure. All right. Take us away here. Atlanta at 15. And I'll say this is going to end a streak. If you don't say, if you don't say a offensive skill position player,

then this is ending a streak for Atlanta, a sort of infamous streak with a lot of people. But they've gone with a skill position player now for straight years. Say a skill position. Just say Matthew Golden here. Say Matthew Golden. I'm not doing it. Okay, there you go. We're breaking it.

This is a sprint to the podium moment for me. Jalen Walker, edge slash linebacker hybrid out of Georgia, probably should be a top 10 pick. I think in my mock, I'll do myself. I might put him in the top 10. Atlanta's very elated to get him here. New defensive coordinator, Jeff Albrecht is going to be in love with this guy, stand-up edge rusher. He's not ideal size.

He's kind of a tweener, but he plays a tremendous play strength despite that smaller size. And he can win one-on-one-vers tackles as an edge rusher. and Atlanta's past rest of the last few years has been dreadful, like absolutely dreadful. So I'm going, Jalen Walker here. So I think that this is going to start a run on edge rushers and defensive tackles where in the next like 10 picks, we'll hear a number of them called. Walker could go as high as eight to Carolina. I think I agree with you. I think this is a really good fit.

The in-state player as well is always a fun one for Atlanta. And I think for Arizona here at 16, I think that Mike, Kyle Williams will be in play. I think Mike Green will be in play. I think Arizona could consider Will Johnson here. But I think they're going to go with the tools guy. I think Shamar Stewart goes 16th overall. And they take this incredible athlete as a sort of a developmental edge rusher that a year from now,

they think this guy could be an absolute star. I think Stewart goes off the board here at 16. Is this too early for Stewart? Some are mocking him earlier than this. I think he's got a wide range of outcomes in this. in this first round. He does. Like if New Orleans doesn't go QB, I could see them taking Stewart at nine. They typically chase unicorns. So he is a unicorn. I have no idea where he's going to go. I've seen recently him getting mocked as late as Detroit at 28. Detroit's also done a ton of work on him.

So that's notable. They could be a trade up candidate for him. Yeah, I don't know. The the seal. This is a total ceiling play. Tools, athleticism, you know, untapped potential. If you hit on this guy, you have a DeNeil Hunter, Calleus Campbell hybrid. If you don't hit, you're left with Marcus Davenport probably, which when healthy has been fine, just not, didn't live up to the hype. So I like the pick though. Cincinnati at 17, this is a team where do they continue and do they take an edge rusher?

Do they take an interior defensive lineman? Or do they make a shock pick? I will say, Trayvion Henderson's been in the building. That would kill me because I like Chase Brown a lot. Me too. There's some overlap there too. So it's like, let me actually ask you this. This is a like, you know, you're studying the full seven rounds here doing a lot of projections.

I just recorded a dynasty life with Derek Brown. Dynasty Life is now on fantasy points, which I'm really excited about. And Derek, Derek and I, we tried to project guys who are going to get nuked and obliterated during the course of the NFL draft based on what what their teams do in terms of the players they're drafting. And Chase Brown, I don't think they're. there's a player in the dynasty community where there's more fear surrounding them. The trade, like, you can trade low and pick yourself up some Chase Brown right now in a lot of leagues because Caleb Johnson's been in the building, Trayvion Henderson, Quinn Sean Judkins. There's another back I'm forgetting.

Cincinnati's really doing their due diligence on backs that would end up being day two backs. Do you think that there's a chance that Chase Brown gets nuked or do you think this is a little bit of smoke and they probably take a guy on day three? I think there's a chance for sure. I'm not going to say there's not a chance, but I also want to remind the fans that sometimes teams use their 30 visits to find, to do intel on guys you might see a lot. And so Cleveland needs a running back. Pittsburgh needs a running back.

I could, sounds crazy, but this happens all the time. And you'll hear it three years from now, oh, we scouted that guy because we knew he'd be playing for the Steelers. There's a chance they're doing their due diligence on the running backs because they're going to see these guys twice a season every year.

That makes total sense as well. And I also think with Judkins and Henderson, the proximity to Cincinnati, it's like, hey, this guy's down the road in Columbus. Let's take a look at him. If it doesn't work out for his first team, maybe we sign him as a free agent in a couple seasons. I think that sort of makes sense for me, too, with Cincinnati.

But it's very odd for a team to go this heavy with the top 30 visits. I mean, it makes us very nervous as dynasty managers. So Debrough and I both agreed that, It's actually time to kick the tires on some buy low offers for Chase Brown. If you get burned, you get burned. But you're able to get him legitimately 50 cents on the dollar. If they pass on running back on day on day one and day two, Chase Brown's dynasty value in terms of trade equity goes so high in like a 48 hour period.

So for me, I'm taking shots on Chase Brown. All right, but I don't mean to get us off off subject here. Go for it here at 17. Yeah. So I'm mad at you because I feel like you give him me all. all the hard teams, man. Oh, yeah. I'm going to chalky.

You're having to go, you're having to actually think about it. So, yeah, this is tough, man. Dude, I, I'm just stuck left. I don't know. I think they got to get better in the trenches on defense. Have to. Let's go Mike Green.

We're going to go, uh, yeah, Mike, Mike Green edge from, from Marshall. So the run on edge guys sticks. Um, you know, things with Trey Henders, Hendrickson have not gotten better. In fact, they've gotten worse. Everything you're hearing out of there is that they're going to move on. Miles Murphy is not panned out. Just Joseph Osai is not really a thing.

They did a like a prove it deal with, who is the edge guy they did it with. No, not an edge guy. Sorry, BJ Hill from the Giants detackle. So anyways, they need, they need trench help. We're going to go Mike Green edge Marshall. Yeah, and Mike Green, I think, goes in this, in this range of the draft led the nation in sacks last year. You've talked about sort of the, certain teams will have him off of their board because of the off the field stuff. Cincinnati's never been a team that's passed up on guys with off the field concerns. So Mike Green, I think makes, it's like he's a bangle.

He's a bangle. It makes a lot of sense. 18 overall for Seattle. Now I think we're in the, this could be the shock pick for Jalen Milro. I think that that's not completely out of the, out of the realm of possibilities. they've had him in recently. I think they're also, they have more day two picks than any other team. They have four picks on day two, two picks in the second, two picks in the third.

They could look to trade up and get a quarterback. But I think here at 18, Gray Zabel, Trevor Booker, Kelvin Banks, I think one of those three guys here is their name called. I'm going to go with Kelvin Banks, who has been sort of a guy that is kind of slipping a little bit in some of these mock drafts. But Banks has been a guy that I thought could go as high as 12th. Dallas throughout this process. This has been a guy that like like Campbell, long-term pedigree, all-American player at Texas, started four years for Texas,

and he can play guard, can play tackle. Kelvin Banks off the board at 18. Your thoughts on this pick? This is a great pick. And in fact, I've really not loved the Gray's able talk here. And I think Gray is a decent prospect, late first, early second guy for me, though. Calvin Banks is a significantly better prospect than Gray's able. So I really like this pick. Obviously in their current environment, he probably plays guard for them, but I still think he can play tackle. He's he's doesn't, he's like 33 and a half inch arms, like an 84 inch wingspan. Like he'll be all right to tackle. So Tampa Bay at 19, Brett, make the pick and then we're taking a quick break. Another just, dude, you're giving me just heart attacks here. I really don't know

what to do here. They need corner help, but like, you can make the case. You expect Zion McCollum to get better. Jamel Dean to be healthy. Let's go, um, let's do the first big wildcard here. We're going to go Nick Eman Worry. I mean, this would be an exciting pick. And I think that like Tampa going with a guy like Campbell, Eamon Worry, or an edge rusher, like, I think they're leaning into the defense. Eamon Worry off the board is the first safety over Malachi Stark. unbelievable athlete. I like this pick, Brett. Nice. Yeah, I mean, great athlete will be awesome in the

blitz packages that you're going to get there from Bowles. Probably plays a lot of sub linebacker for them early on too, which we know Bulls will value. So, yeah. So I'm putting my fantasy hat on for pick number 20 here. Trayvion Henderson off the board. I've mocked Omar and Hampton here several times, but you've sort of gotten in my ear here about the stylistic fit for Trayvion

Henderson. And I think this is one where, I mean, this is, this is like an incredible landing spot for us for fantasy. Travion Henderson off the board at 20. Your thoughts on this one? Yeah, this is the nuts landing spot for Henderson. I'm a little lower on Henderson the consensus. But if you were to fall in this environment specifically, I'd be all the way in. The scheme is just tremendous. The outside zone with the, with the duo coming back, you know, as the thunder lightning punch, he'll be awesome in that scheme. So I'm excited about it. Plus the past catching upside, obviously. I mean, this would be like, I think we're talking about he would be going at the 102 in most super flex rookie drafts ahead of the quarterback right behind Ashton Genty. And I think Henderson would move up into like the two, three turn area in redraft and best ball.

People would be ecstatic about this pick. Let's take a quick break. We come back, Brett, your OTC with Pittsburgh Steelers, possible quarterback pick at 21. Welcome back, Fantasy Football Daily, our final NFL mock draft podcast of the year before we get together and we cover the entire thing. Brett, 21 overall here, Pittsburgh Steelers. Is this a quarterback selection? Yes, they're going to go Jalen Milrow, quarterback Alabama. I firmly believe Miller will be a first round pick now. He also did get a combine invite. So there's some, you know, they're telling you a little bit.

But yeah, I mean, did they stand pat? We said at the top of the show, four quarterbacks inside the top 21 was my prediction. I'm standing pat here and I'm going Jalen Milro. Oh, we saw them try this with Justin Fields too. Just didn't work out. Very similar player though. Yeah, I mean, this is one where I think this would be like an unbelievable outcome for us for Jalen Milro for Dynasty because it's a, it would be a team that's showing you that they like him. And by taking him in the first round, Milro would have the path to being a starter.

we've continually said that when Jalen Milro is on an NFL field, he's in your starting lineup for fantasy. This will be a slam dunk for Jalen Milro and make your dynasty rookie draft picks more valuable. So 22 overall, L.A. Chargers, this has been like, lately there's been all this steam that L.A. is going to select a pass catcher. Agbuka's on the board. Matthew Golden's on the board.

A shock pick for a moving up one of these tight ends, like a Mason Taylor, who's been in the building. building for for for la is on the board but i think this is another sprint to the podium situation jim harbaugh does not get reunited with colston lovelin but he gets reunited with kenneth grant the mammoth defensive tackle uh how can jim harbaugh pass pass up grant here at 22 this is just like a layup pick grant off the board as a charger yeah it's disgusting this is probably the number one need on their roster too and it's a guy that harbaw coached and it's a guy that i have in my top 10 on my big board. Yeah, checks all the boxes.

23 overall here, Green Bay Packers, wide receiver, cornerback, which way are you going here? I'm pulling a, I'm pulling a Theo here. Oh, I love it. I'm going Matthew Golden. It's the nuts landing spot. It's the nuts landing spot for him. Yeah. And, you know, I think in real life, if I had to really like, like, for one, I just don't think Matthew Golden's going to make it this far. Some way or somehow, I think he goes earlier than Green Bay, or Green Bay. Green Bay. even trades up for him.

But if Golden is off the board, I think Green Bay probably goes Harrison, the corner from Kentucky because they like that speed, that vertical speed. So, but here we're going Matthew Golden, best receiver on the board. They need a receiver. They need a true number one. I don't know that Golden gives you that,

but he at least gives you a big kick in the butt as far as that unit goes. So this is another sprint to the podium situation for Minnesota. I think that this has been a pick where some people are projecting offensive linemen. some people are projecting a defensive back malachi starks i think there'll be some consideration there with hunter smith entering like his 80th season in the league but for me i think will johnson has slid far enough we get two michigan players in the last three picks and will johnson goes off the board to the minnesota vikings at 24 beautiful uh that's a great pick uh i i kind of think will johnson might slide to the second round just because the

or the workout numbers he just put out were bad bad bad yeah um but anyways I mean it's still a good value and I think teams probably are glad he tested poorly so they do get a shot at him at 24 I mean yeah I mean with with Johnson it's like the guy doesn't run the 40 like there's all these there's all these question marks with like the health but at the end of the day

this has been a guy that we were doing this process three months ago you know he would have been in play for like the fifth overall pick So I think I think 24 just becomes that value for Minnesota adds to a very, very solid defense as well. Yep. All right. Houston, CJ Stroud's making this pick. I love it. This is another Theo pick. Another, another Theo pick.

But no, it's a CJ Stroud pick. So we're going Ohio statewide receiver, Emeka, Egbuka, reuniting the two. I really do think Stroud has a, I don't want to say a strangle hold on Houston because that makes it sound negative. but I do think he is a ton of influence with what they're doing, and they need wide receiver help very badly. And I can't help but think Stroud's going to force them to take a Mecca, Egbuka here. So it's kind of, the star is kind of aligned with this one.

He should be there for them. And, you know, it's not a bad pick for them. So at Mech, Egbuka, Ohio State, power slot slash Z type receiver. I love the pick. And I think this is a great landing spot for Egbuka. And I mean, if the, if the NFL draft. goes this way, your dynasty rookie picks are looking a lot better. 26 overall for me with the Rams, I think that there's a ton of really exciting defensive

options for them. And that's the way that they lean last year. But they do need an offensive lineman. This seems like a wheelhouse for Gray Zabel. North Dakota State can very, very versatile, played both tackle positions, played guard and can play center. Zabel off the board at 26. This seems about right for him.

Yep, I think that's a much better spot than, say, Seattle at 18. Yep, good, good stuff there. Let's go Baltimore at 27. When you look at their roster, Theo, they have a surprising amount of, like, sneaky needs. Now, they don't have a ton of starting spots open, so they're not drafting a starter here no matter what they do. However, they have two offensive tackles currently on the roster. That's including futures contract. have two offensive tackles on the roster.

They kind of have to go offensive line here. And I think Josh Connerly is a guy that's, you know, really good in past pro. He has to develop a little bit more core strength to be effective in their run scheme. But I think he's a guy that they're, you know, as a potential Ronnie Stanley replacement can play both the left and right side. I feel like this is a good depth piece for them as they look to make another deep playoff run. I mean, I think that positionally it makes.

sense. I think that it would be sort of like there's all these top-notch defensive players still on the board. I think it's sort of in the in the tradition of Baltimore where I think if like guys like you know, Campbell, Mikel Williams were on the board. I think they might go in that direction. But Connerley in terms of positional needs makes sense. And you got to protect the franchise. Lamar Jackson, that offensive role. And so Connerly off the board of 27. I'm going to say we're going to end the run on offensive linemen right here. Your Detroit Lions. are going to select Michael Williams from Georgia, a guy who could go a lot higher.

This is going to be another one where when you wake up on Friday morning, you're going to see a big old A, next to Detroit because they fill a need. When Aiden Hutchinson went down, they severely lacked pass rushing ability. The entire defense took a big step back with all those defensive injuries to end the season. Williams is a guy plug and play opposite Aiden Hutchinson,

a player that can really help Detroit. And stylistically, he's a fit, value he's a fit, a slam dunk pick. right here. Yeah, I hate it. They get an A from everyone and an F from me. I know you're not a huge Williams fan, but I'm a huge Williams fan. And I know the lines specifically love Jahad Campbell. I don't think they would pass on Jihad Campbell. And then Donovan Azaraku, I don't think they'd pass on him either. They've done work. They've done a little work on Donovan and they've done a ton of work on Jihad. I think they've talked to Jihad six or seven

different times. I mean, Campbell here would be an unbelievable. I mean, Campbell's a guy who could go a lot higher. He's certainly sitting on our board being punished, shorter by the position he plays more than anything. Okay, but take us away here. I want to talk more lines. Come on. Well, you know, you've talked about it, but who are a couple players that could be in play for them if it's not Campbell? If it's not Jahad Campbell? Yeah. So let me,

let me take a step back. McKell Williams will for sure be on their board. He is the, the profile. They look for at Edge guys. I just, I'm not sold on him, be on a first round pick. But, yeah, Jehad Campbell, Donovan Azaraku, let's go Walter Nolan, I think maybe might be on their board. Nick Scorton for the lines. Those are guys I think the lines would consider, along with Michael Williams. So there you go. I'm prepared to be disappointed on draft night if they go Mikel Williams. So final four picks here.

You're OTC with one of the more fun ones. Washington on the on the clock. at 29. Yeah, here we're going, Omari and Hampton running back. Love it. Love it. He, this is another, like, he very well might go earlier, right? I think we're hearing he could go earlier. Man, from a scheme standpoint, I don't know that I want him going earlier than this. This is awesome. The downhill run game in Washington, that heavy inside zone, heavy duo, just get Hampton north and south and let him punish people. That's what, that's what I want to see. Plus, he's going to get favorable box counts on every freaking rush attempt. You want that guy at that size, that speed coming downhill at you 30 times a game. Heck, no, that'd be awesome.

No, I love the pick. Buffalo at 30, you know, I keep projecting like defensive linemen to Buffalo here, but I talked to Mike Schope. Mike Schope, you know, a couple months ago, he came on school of Scott. I think that Buffalo in the building wants to add a defensive back. And I think that, you know, you, you, you took MN Worry at 19. I think if he was, available here at 30, it would be a slam dunk. But I think the pick is going to be Malachi Starks. I think we get two safeties inside of the first round. And I think when you look at Starks,

he's just with such a good college player. And I think that he's going to be also a very good NFL player, doesn't have the athleticism of Eman Worry, like the sheer size. But Starks is a killer at safety and makes this defense better, fills a need, and it's a very good value. Good stuff. I totally agree across the board. That's a great pick for that.

then. 31, Kansas City, my last pick of this exercise. Let's go, I guess they need so much. I mean, we'll just say best players available right now. Campbell's still on the board. There's a number of defensive tackles. You've cleaned up offensive line. I think like the Zabel and Connerley picks and the O'Marion Hampton pick,

this would actually make things difficult on Kansas City. There's one offensive lineman here that they should absolutely consider, and that's Donovan Jackson. he's a stud. In a pinch, he could play tackle even. I don't think I'd have him there, you know, full time or anything like that. But, you know, starting at left guard, you know, is Kingsley Summa Atiah going to work out? Or are they going to have to go back to Mike Caliando?

I don't know. I think I'm going to pass, though. I'm going to go with my guy, Donovan Aziraku. I think one of the things that's killed Kansas City the last couple of years is their pass rush is brutal. If Chris Jones is catching doubles on every play like he normally does, they can You could completely lock out this pass rush. They have nothing. They've got guys who are good at setting the edge,

but they don't have true, just pin your ears back, go get the quarterback. Eziraku is that guy. It could be an every down player for them right off the bat. And for a team that's been to like 19 Super Bowls in five years, it's hard to find a day one starter this late in the first round. They're getting one here in Donovan Azaraku. So I'm going, Donovan Eziraku, Boston College, Edge,

led the nation in pressures and sacks last year. He's an absolute animal. Yeah, I mean, it's sort of like if you're looking for the high-end production guys at defensive end, Azaraku and Mike Green, there's a lot of tools guys in this class. Azaraku is a production guy, unbelievable production at Boston College. He's also a freak athlete, too. So it's funny, he kind of gets set aside as not a tools. He's every bit as tools he's a Shamar Stewart.

She's not as big as Shamar Stewart. And I've had him inside of my first round mocked. You've had him inside of the first round mocked. I mean, I think sometimes people let him fall to the second. I think that he's going to go inside the first round somewhere. Like, I think that's a great pick for Kansas City and a great pick by you. But this happens every year, every single year. The best defensive player, one of the best defensive players on the board, falls to Philly, like falls right in their laps.

Jehad Campbell, 32 overall, another A. Vic Fangio is just probably standing on his head with this pick. Campbell could go like 12 spots higher, maybe even high. than that. Campbell is just an awesome player, tons of production, tons of athleticism, sideline to sideline player. I mean, the best team in football gets better with this pick. It's nauseating. I almost took him at Kansas City just to be stubborn so you can do that. I probably should have taken him at 19 instead of the Manwari. Looking back in hindsight, I think I'd reverse that pick. And I've, in my own mocks, I've put Campbell to 19 just because

it's such a scheme fit, right? But, yep. Yeah, insane. If this actually plays out this way, that's insane. I think actually he did go 32 in Mel Khyper's most recent mock. Yeah, he did to the Eagles. So of course. There we go. There we go.

And I'll say, I'll say 17 to Cincinnati. 17 at Cincinnati. I think he'd be in the wheelhouse. I think Tampa Bay 19. Yeah, Baltimore. Like, this is probably not going to happen. But if it does, yeah, it's going to be sickening.

You know, it's just, it happens every year with Philly. These SEC guys just fall in their laps, lay up pick for them. Brett, this was a lot of fun.
