Welcome to the Fantasy Footballers Podcast with your hosts, Andy Holloway, Jason Moore, and Mike Wright. Welcome in. Happy Mock Draft Friday.

Andy, Mike, and Jason, the fantasy footballers, joining you. Big draft weekend. One of the biggest of the year, if not the biggest. We're so close to football. It's time. And so we want to get you prepped up. And mock draft is a good way to do that. Yeah, there's football tonight.

I noticed this year we have omitted the entire preseason. There is no, is not football time until real week one kickoff, Mike. Yeah, the preseason is just, it's not what it once was. So, I mean, I'm excited. I like the preseason. I watch as much as I can endure. But, you know, it's not. It will be soon, though.

It will be the real football time. Well, we've got news to talk about before we get into our mock draft. And today we're going to have the Ducers. We'll all be picking different teams. But then we've got four members of our team taking up some of the mock draft as well. So it's going to be a little bit of a different ride than we've been used to. It should be fun. It should get us prepared.

Yeah, people have been saying, you know, when you mock draft against a computer, it's helpful. That is a good resource. It's a good tool. It is not quite as good as being able to mock draft with real people or oftentimes when we mock draft like we've got this uh this doc for our league of record i call it the skeleton key you can find links online for it but um we do it by hand like i will draft every other person based on what i know and people have been saying like you know

these these drafts sometimes are too easy because the computer, we want to draft against other people. They just didn't know that the other people we would find would be worse than the computer. Yeah, take a computer and then, like, I don't know, like, take out some of the RAM. Yeah, it's missing some ones and zeros. Right.

And then you get deuces. So, yeah. Well, that didn't last long. I told them I probably wouldn't talk about their teams, I wouldn't fun of them but i was talking to them as a group and as a group i i kind of let myself jump right in there we can't really help ourself the water's warm i'm not saying nothing over here no are you are in your heart you're afraid they're gonna like put up a fight in the draft what what why would i be afraid of them no There he is. There he is. We have a mock draft shortly. We've got a big trade to talk about.

We're recording this episode a little bit earlier than we normally do because we are heading to Los Angeles for a live show. Yeah, on Saturday evening. Tickets a handful available at ballerslive.com if you want to get in there. And the big announcement this week, and I checked the count this morning before I recorded, we are up over 8,000 people in the Megalobo, the world's largest fantasy league, each and every year. It's a great time. It's a chance to come and draft with the Foot Clan.

And you can learn all about how to join at megalobull.com. Like I said, up over 8,000 over the last couple of days have joined, and you can pick your draft spot. We're drafting August 31st through September 4th. Your draft time. Draft time. Yeah, you don't get to pick where you – I didn't want that to get crossed.

No, it's fair. You don't get to pick where you're at in the draft, just when you are available to draft. Yes. But we have a bunch of times in there to kind of meet everybody's fair. You don't get to pick where you're at in the draft, just when you are available to draft. But we have a bunch of times in there to kind of meet everybody's schedule. Yeah, several days, a couple of times each day, and then the winner of the Megaloball every year gets to play with us in the next Listener League automatically. So if you don't have the talent, creativity, personality to win the submission process.

You could just automatically get in by beating everybody in the bag. You could have gone the good fortune to be selected, but you went with their devoid of talent, ability, skill, personality. You were on read. I'm just ready to dunk on people, man. What's the coffee situation this morning? Because we know you've been bouncing around with the caffeine. You've been testing different brews,

and some of them are impacting your cardiovascular system differently. This morning was a double espresso. It feels like it. It does. It really does. It does. All right, I'm looking forward to it. Woo!

Let's walk draft, baby! News and notes from around the league. Presented by USAA insurance. Well, we did have big news this morning when we're recording this show. So you're listening to this. This happened yesterday. The Eagles and commanders interdivisional trade took place. And it's a big one.

It's a big one for your future hopes and dreams of a player that had a lot of potential as a first-round wide receiver who had a nice rookie season and is no longer a member of the Washington Commanders. Jahan Dotson, you know the vibes? The vibes were spot on with Jahan Dotson. Yes, they were. We had said that the team is just saying some things about Jahan Dotson that we don't like, the fact that they're still trying to figure out

who a wide receiver two is. Well, it's not Jahan Dotson because he's been shipped out the door to the Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles send a third and seventh. The commanders sent Jahan Dotson and a fifth. The Eagles had been really looking to find somebody to step up as a wide receiver three in this offense that's why you got the paris campbell acquisition that's why you had talk of johnny wilson and johan dotson is who they went after

and it's close to the season this is a pretty big deal well he doesn't need to learn a playbook he just needs to learn okay when you're on the field uh you run that way you run down the field as fast as you can Dotson it is a I think a valuable but not fantasy consequential pickup for the Eagles because barring injury I don't think any of us are looking at Dotson as viable in any capacity. He would be at best an undrafted gym type of player if an injury took place. Yeah. And from a dynasty perspective, I think the... Actually, I have a sound effect for his dynasty.

Oh, yeah. Is it similar to a falcon? Oh, man. Oh, did you want me to go? Yeah. I thought this is more indicative. Yeah. His actual value is currently circling the drain.

Let's keep talking and we'll find it. Did they hide the toilet from me or am I just blind? I don't know. Whatever. All right. Well, there was going to be. Imagine a toilet sound. There it is. There it is. I still don't see it,. All right. Well, there was going to be – Imagine a toilet sound. There it is.

There it is. I still don't see it, Al. I'm sorry. It's all right. I think he's good for a couple long touchdowns, though, for Jalen Hurts. So, the interesting thing on the commander's side is that we know Terry McLaurin is the number one bona fide highest target option in the offense for Jaden Daniels.

We had heard and seen on the field through two preseason games a rapport built with Diami Brown. He was on the field way more than we expected last year because we hoped Jahan Dotson was... This kind of happened. The team kind of, mind you, they changed head coaches and offensive coordinators, but we were hit in the face with the Jahan Dotson disappointment early last year, and we continuously would come in here and say, Diami Brown caught the touchdown today. Or, you know, it was obviously they had Curtis Samuel in the offense,

and it wasn't Dotson. Now, Diami Brown profiles to line up outside opposite of Terry McLaurin. Didn't take me long, but I watched every Diamond Brown snap this morning. Every route. You saw all 168 yards on the season? I saw all Sam Howell missing a burner down the field. Diamond Brown is a burner. Is this a Nico Collins situation?

No, because Nico, I could see being an upper echelon talent, and we would call that out and hope for a better quarterback. Diami is a kind of middling route runner with burner speed, and there were three or four touchdowns that were 100% Sam Howe can't throw the football. It was so similar to when you watched Darnell Mooney with Justin Fields. But when you look at, you know, for a dynasty league, you should pick up Diamond Brown.

I mean, this is somebody that's going to get targets and snaps. He's a nasty boy. But when you look at can I find a diamond in the rough long-term on this roster that isn't Terry McLaurin, you've got to bring yourself to the conversation about Luke McCaffrey, a third-round rookie. Even if he doesn't profile as a starter this moment, you know, cream rises to the top, right?

Yeah, and I think Luke McCaffrey plays a large role in them wanting to ship him out because this isn't like – they are still looking for their wide receiver, too, because I don't think it is Diami Brown. Diami Brown will be on the field, but I don't think he is talented enough to really be who they want to have in that slot in the future. But they had moved Jahan Dotson to the slot. Luke McCaffrey is more of a slot type player. He was a late transition to wide receiver from quarterback and he's good. I actually, I like

his tape. He had good production in his final season. He is a McCaffrey, which that doesn't always mean anything just because you're the son of a Hall of Fame player. But when you've got multiple great players in the family. It's like the Watts. Right, the Watts. Yeah, but is he the Austin Rivers of this situation? I believe he is. I mean, he was a third-round pick.

He did not get enough pre-draft hype. Is he the Seth Curry? Ooh. You know what I mean? Yeah, I know what you mean. Yeah, I'm just asking. He doesn't profile to be some breakout superstar. He's not going to be Christian McCaffrey of wide receivers.

But I do think he is. I think he's a quality player. He'll be on the field he'll have a career and in many rookie drafts I've seen him go on draft right now uh Zach Kiyos is the slot receiver for the commanders and McCaffrey will be competing for opportunity Terry McLaurin I you know I moved him up a little bit in the target in the target share I I'm i'm kind of big big in ontario this year i i can see that it the dotson wasn't really factoring in a ton to my projections so it it didn't really move terry for me dotson ran the fifth most routes in the nfls yeah cardio king so um something

interesting and this offense it's Cliff Kingsbury. Offensive mastermind. I saw something this morning. Kyle, maybe you can shout out who shared it, but there's been, you know, the commanders have 19 screen passes in preseason, and the next closest team is 10, and nothing screams Cliff Screensbury than that kind of a situation so i'm really hoping this is hayden wink shared that yeah really hoping this is like a hide your cards hide your

hide your hand before no it's not i know no he doesn't have it like he's showing you what he's got all the time i heard josh norris uh he also works with Hayden Winks, breaking down of his time to throw was lower than anyone else's time to throw last year and his yards per attempt Who was? Jayden Daniels. Oh, I got you. And then the yards per attempt was lower

than anyone else was last year. The stat is something like that but of just like... When you have 19 screens, that makes sense. Yeah, like what are we doing here? Well, that's managing a rookie. Maybe. It's part of it.

Bo Nix was named the starting quarterback for the Denver Broncos. Excited to see that. Sean Payton finally came out and told us what we knew. It'll be an interesting situation there to see a rookie. It's hard. I mean, it's just hard to start week one and be productive and it's hard to provide fantasy value.

We've, we've brought that data forward so many times and just, you know, how hard it is to sustain a wide receiver one that isn't a hall of famer that you don't get double digit touchdowns from somebody like last year we had Cortland Sutton, despite Russell Wilson, he was a double digitdigit touchdown guy.

That doesn't happen with this rookie quarterback. Denver's not very exciting for fantasy. No. All right, Elijah Mitchell, Jordan Mason both returned to practice on Wednesday, so the Niners' backup running back's getting healthier before they can get hurt again. And Dennis Allen. Dennis Allen, always part of our news.

We like to bring you the positive spin of sports. Doesn't believe Rashid Shahid's toe and foot injury would keep him out for an extended length of time. Okay. That's also, to me, a news report on Rashid Shahid's toe and foot injury because I don't think I was aware of that. I am just happy that we have news of an injury where, to my knowledge, Dennis Allen is not dunking on his player for being injured.

Did you go watch the whole Kendrick Miller presser? Because I saw the whole thing now. I didn't see the entire thing. I watched the clip. Are we out of context? Yeah. Teach me. No, I mean, because you want to hear the whole thing to get the context,

and context is he sucks. I mean, Dennis Allen is this cross between curmudgeon and unfiltered and worn out and tired. Stressed. He comes across as so stressed. Like he just, like sometimes, like Mike said it yesterday, don't be that honest. You know, just protect your player.

Don't be so honest. You're like, he just constantly was like, I don't know. I don't know what he can do. I got no idea. He's never here. I know he's got talent, but I don't know what he can do. I'm a big baby. Thank you.

You're welcome. All right, that was today's News and Notes presented by USAA Insurance. Learn more at usa.com slash insurance. We'll take a break, and we'll jump right in to a... Mark-a-lock-a-ding-dong. All right, coming back from the break, we did check Jason's caffeine levels. They're very high.

How's the heart rate? It's pretty good. I'm at a resting 120. So when you get into a mock draft, though, that's pretty normal, right? Your mock drafts are... Yep, yep. Never been under 100 in a mock. Okay, let's jump in.

The Fantasy Footballers Mock Draft. Well, this should be a fun one today. 12-team half PPR, quarterback, two running backs, two wide receivers, a tight inflex, and four bench spots. Jason drafting from the number two spot. Mike at the sixth spot. I'm at nine. But we've mixed the team, the squad, the Foot Clan staff,

all mixed in, producers and losers alike. Bcat, our video guy at number three. Kyle, Kyle's drafting at the five spot. The Falcon dumping on the seven spot. And then Papa Josh, he's at 10, and he's worried about me sniping him. The Falcon is very pumped that Sleeper has an app on the phone. Yeah, he can do this from his laptop, from his desktop, from the toilet. And for those watching on the YouTube channel as we kick this draft off,

I just hit the start button. For those watching, I was feeling a little bit, just a teeny weensy bit, like a small part of me, just a little bit worried and guilty about maybe focusing so much on his bowel habits. Right. And then I roll into this mock draft today, and I got Jason's face. I got Ketchum's ugly face. I got Kyborg floating head. And then I'm looking Papa Josh looking elderly. And then

what do I see? It's the Falcon. Front and center. He's got a toilet avatar. So, you know, this is the position we put our staff in is when we decide what you are, you decide to embrace or not embrace it.

That is such a long flush. Is that right? Yeah. How are you after you had the opportunity to drop the mailbag drop? Oh, I had nightmares last night. Yeah, you said you blacked out. We've got the screenshots of you sweating. It was fun.

My skin's still crawling. Yeah, no, you were – at least you did it. At least you delivered. You could have gone silent or sprinted out of the room. All right, we My skin's still crawling. Yeah, no, you were... At least you did it. At least you delivered. You could have gone silent or sprinted out of the room. Alright, we're into the mock draft. The first pick off the board, Christian McCaffrey. Sorry, Jason. Aw, darn it. I thought for sure he'd be there for me

at two. This is really easy. I'm going to make this quick and seamless. There's three top picks in every draft. CMC, Tyreek Hill, CeeDee Lamb. The last time I was near this spot, I took Tyreek. So I'm going to go CeeDee Lamb, plus you got Tyreek with the thumb injury. You can call that a tiebreaker if you want. There's no right answer, so I want to go different.

Yeah, I get it. You're going to get to see how your team turns out that way. The Lamb contract. It's the thumb injury of financial issues right now, but it's not fun. McCaffrey off the board. Jason Wentz, C.D. Lamb. Bcat goes Tyreek Hill. No fear

at number three. Jamar Chase off the board at 104, leaving the Atlanta native Kyle the Borgogian to take Bijan Robinson. Just a reach for the homer. What a reach. Only because he is an Atlanta Falcons fan.

And that is a joke. This is a great pick. Bijan deserves to be about that spot in the draft. That puts Mike on the clock at 106. Mike, what are you thinking here in your first round? So it's do I start with a hero running back? Do I take Brees Hall? Or do I go with Amin Ra St. Brown

uh Amin Ra just so unbelievably dependable at the wide receiver position I'm looking at his week one line yeah yeah sleeper picks line is it's at 87 and a half receiving yards like it's an over under a 51 it's in Ford Field Field. We love that early schedule. Yeah, he averaged over 100 yards at home. I love that, but I am going to start with Brees Hall. I hate you. I hate you. I'm going to start that way and see how my mock unfolds. It is the right thing to do.

For some reason at 109. You would go Brees over Amon Ra? I would, yeah. And at 109, although I do, you know what? Just to be transparent, I put feelers out on Amon Ra on Dynasty League, in our Dynasty League yesterday. Sorry, not the Dynasty League, in our League of Records. Oh, okay. Because he's a keeper.

And I just – I was like, good luck, man. I have not – I've been barking up that tree forever. I've never had him on a roster. And I just – I'm so excited about Detroit. I think they're going to win the Super Bowl this year.

So I wouldn't have minded the pick, certainly, but Brees Hall just seems so reliable. I wanted you to pass on him because there's always a chance that he makes it to, like, 108, 109. Brees? Brees, because of the fact that, like, the names, right? I mean, you've got A.J. Brown and Amon Ra, St. Brown. Justin Jefferson.

Yeah, so Brees goes at 106. The Falcon went with Amon Ra, St. Brown at 107. Tyreek and Amon Ra feel so – they just feel so safe. Like they do feel safer than Jamar Chase feels, those two picks. Would you not agree? Chase does not feel as safe as Amon Ra and Tyreek. I don't know that there is as safe a pick as Amon Ra. The ceiling we saw last year when he had the touchdowns flowing,

the type of player he is, you don't necessarily expect him to be a double-digit touchdown guy. So I do worry that he'll come down a little bit, but the the consistency that every week you just know you're you're never getting goosed from they can't yeah their offense doesn't function without him for sure jefferson goes at 108 leaving me on the clock with some options here um this is i mean 109 just screams jameer gibbs offseason. It just seems like the Gibbs decision is there. We also have A.J. Brown on the board,

and those are the two players I am looking at. It's Jameer Gibbs, it's A.J. Brown, Papa Josh drafting behind me, quick turn. You start to look at this point, do you like what you're taking at running back in the second round, whether Kyron, Saquon, Henry, those guys, A-Chan, or do you like coming back around to the Puka, to the Adams and Harrison? And I look at that, and I think A.J. Brown is a tier above those guys,

and so that's the pick I'm going to make here. I don't go wide receiver first round often but I'm going to do it today so AJ Brown off the board giving us six wide outs and three running backs to the first nine picks Papa Josh went with Gibbs at 110 Saquon off the board next and Garrett Wilson rounding out the first round is Garrett Wilson currently a pick that gives you pause yeah for me he is I mean Garrett Wilson didn't finish as a top 30 wide receiver last year and obviously we're just saying it's completely because the quarterback situation was bad yes I am but there are plenty of I mean are you saying that all of the guys ahead of him had good quarterbacks because that's not true I am saying that every player in front of garrett wilson had a better quarterback yes well that's better sure in the sense that you can't be much worse that's exactly what i mean is like there was bad

quarterback quarterback play all over there always is but the jets Jets was special last year. All right, so heading into round two should be interesting. We get Marvin going at 201. Again, that feels like where he has been going. Jonathan Taylor at 202. A little Saquon Jonathan Taylor stack for Team 11. Papa Josh pairs Jameer Gibbs with Puka Nakua at 203. My thought process with Brown was that I'm going to like the running backs coming back to me more.

That's what happened. I am very happy to take a guy that's going to probably go by his teammate many, many times, but I'll take Kyron Williams at 204 in this draft, pair him with A.J. Brown. Feel good about that. No, I love that. I mean, both of those guys I I think, are the type of player that could finish number one at their position

that is not being drafted like that, right? You don't put A.J. Brown in the CD, the Tyreek category. You don't put Kyron in the Bijon Breeze category, but they really are, on a per-game basis, capable of that. Their offense, their talent. Pairing those two guys together at the back of the first is very nice. Alright, Team A went with Olave after Mike Hiram pick,

and then Debo goes to the Falcon, who goes wide receiver, wide receiver, Amon Ra, and Debo Samuel. Putting Mike back on the clock, Mike, while you're thinking about that pick, we did not talk about one thing with the Dotson trade. I drafted A.J. Brown in the first round it's not that

Brown or Devante Smith would be hurt but do you look at this as at least a minor upgrade to Jalen Hurt yeah in the sense that like if an injury happens to those guys we're not staring down Johnny Wilson to step up and provide him fantasy value I'd yeah that's not even how I'm thinking about it I'm thinking about it from that that Dotson will have a couple long touchdowns, and that's good stuff for Jalen Hurts. So, yeah, I think it's a small upgrade for him. Not enough that I'm going to make a move of putting Hurts over Allen, but, you know, just it helps things out.

So I took Brees Hall with my first pick. I am going – I mean, there's so many guys here that are delightful, especially in my my guy category. Give us some of the names of what you're thinking about. Well, I mean, I don't mind the reach here to take Nico in the second round. You know, wide receivers, it's london adams iuke that's why that's why to me nico is the pick at wide receiver but where i'm gonna go i'm gonna go high t and despite well based on yesterday's take right yeah right this is who you are thank you i've always been this guy just clip that out, everybody. And despite it being Jason's my guy.

Oh, whoa. I am Isaiah Pacheco. Pacheco is very, very high in my rankings. He is. This was above Henry. This was above A. Chan. Yes. This was above ETN.

Like Christian McCaffrey, Bijan Breeshall, Kyron. And then after that, I'm calling your shot of who I think can really finish as a top three guy, and I think that things can bounce right in a volume department for Pacheco for him to finish top three. You two have been the leaders of the Pacheco parade for sure, and I'm interested to see how that plays out. Kyborg let me know. Now, Kyle, you would have taken Isaiah Pacheco with your next pick. So, you know, Mike got his guy there, even if it's slightly above ADP.

Yeah, that's early. That's earlier than ADP, but that's how some drafts are going to go. I mean, I obviously don't have any problem with that. I love him. The one that was questionable to me is taking him above Devon Achan. Like, I would rather have Achan. I get it. I get the rocket fuel, but I'd rather take a guy who I know that he's –

well, he had the fourth highest running back attempt share last year. That's not going to happen. I mean, it's a full bet on efficiency, which with Achan, it's not a terrible bet. Pacheco's current sleeper ADP is 303. You got him at 207, so you had to grab him. He would have been gone. Nico Collins goes to Kyle next.

Drake Lennon off the board, as he often does in the second round here. And then BK, with Tyreek Hill in the first, goes ETN in the second. That feels like a pretty good value to me, grabbing him there. I mean, he could have gone as high as 202, 203, Etienne at 210. And then Jason, I see you've already made a pick. You didn't even want to wait for me to put the ball on the tee. You're like, I'm swinging before the ump is back. I'm still on the clock with my next pick, but I had the strategy coming back to this second and third round turn that I was going to try to take Devon Aitken with my first pick and Isaiah Pacheco with my next one.

Turned out that when I got on the clock, Derek Henry was there. I played the ADP game to try to pair Derek Henry with Devon Achan. Would you, if that were a human in spot one, would you have played the game? I would not have. I would have taken HN there over Henry don't yeah just don't don't risk that yeah but uh but it worked out for me having CeeDee Lamb at the top being able to pair him with two in my opinion stud running backs Derek Henry and Devon HN and HN always feels look I love HN H as your running back one, is a little tougher pill to swallow.

I get that. So as my running back two, I love it. Would it be easier to swallow if you had to switch those picks, but they both went to you still? Like A-Chan was the first pick and Henry was the second? Yeah, that makes the pill more A-Chan size. Henry? Easier to swallow.

At 211, then Jacobs and Ayuk off the board, you end up with Devon A-. Chan with the second pick of the third round and then James Cook another fan favorite goes at 303 to BKet pairing James Cook with Travis Etienne with Tyreek that's pretty good

Adams goes next and then our first quarterback off the board Kyle goes with oh so he did go Jalen Hurts over Josh Allen Jalen Hurts over Josh Allen. Jalen Hurts at 305 off the board to go with Bijan Iniko. Putting high T, Mr. Leatherhead himself, the fantasy hitman on the clock, Brees, Pacheco, and you have the 306. I don't know.

I don't want to speak out of turn here, Mike, but based on what you said yesterday, Mixon is. Oh is very good at football he's very good at football you're high t I would think about it running back running back running back I will think about it but we're no longer in that segment and I don't like Joe Mixon okay uh it's down to two players for me. Ken Bone Walker out of Seattle. You guys almost got a take swap for Ken Walker. I would have liked that. And it was just, I realized, trying to talk you into a player over being able to make you say something derogatory

or positive about a player, that was too good of an opportunity to pass up. But as I went through and I was making my case for Ken Walker, again, I didn't adjust my stats, but it made me even more confident in his running back attempt. His share was top tier before he got hurt. He misses a couple games. He comes back.

His share goes even higher. It just comes down to his 8% target share. Can the new OC in philosophy, can that bump that up to like a 10? Because if he's getting the same share with his explosive nature and a 10% target share, running back one is easily in the range for him.

It's between him and then my guy who, back to practice, everybody. Great news for Jalen Waddell. I'm really pumped that he is back there. Because I started high T, I'm going to take Waddell. All right, Brees Hall, Isaiah Pacheco, Jalen Waddell is Mike's start to this draft. The Falcon does go Ken Walker with the next pick. Josh Allen off the board, another quarterback.

So two quarterbacks in the third round here. Putting me back on the clock, A.J. Brown, Kyron Williams is my start to this draft. Because this is a mock and I think the value is there, I'm going to pull the trigger on a onesie. I mean, I told you guys that i was i didn't one i told you guys i was comfortable enough with both laporta and kelsey if they got further down the draft board in the third round and with the quarterbacks going off the board it knocked them down a little bit you see them really curious which one you're gonna take i'm

gonna take sam laporta wow i going to take Sam Laporta. I'm going to take Sam Laporta today. I'm neck and neck with those two guys. I went Laporta, and then Kelsey went next to Papa Joss. I am worried about, I think accumulation-wise, Kelsey and Laporta will be really close, but I'm worried about the second half of the season for Kelsey. If this team does what they're supposed to do,

lock the division down and kind of protect Kelsey, then that's a concern. I don't know if you guys realized it because this is the first time I have. In Sleeper, that's where we're drafting, Kelsey has overtaken Sam Laporta. ADP has flipped and I just went and confirmed in the draft kit you know looking at the sleeper ADP making sure nothing was wild that has happened now they're they're both Laporta was a back-end second round pick he's now more of a middle third and honestly that is far more palatable to me as well I've been just completely

off with Laporta because in my head he's dialed in. People are taking him in the middle of the second, maybe a couple picks after and that was too rich, but where you got him, I'm okay with that. You're really hoping he takes a tear jump because in points per game,

while he was the number one guy, overall for the tight end position, that was a really low points per game and he needs more receptions and more yards well Kelsey went next and then Cooper Cup Evans Mahomes Diggs and DJ Moore a little disappointed I was playing a little bit of a game hoping that somehow some way you know I would see whether it's evans or cup swing back around cup would have been another ram on my kyron roster so at this point at 404 i am looking pretty strongly at the running back position oh and um it's not the sexy pick everybody wants to make but it's the right pick and so i'm going to take rashad white in the fourth round. Rashad White was, we talked about it briefly yesterday.

For some reason, there's just like a strong desire to doubt him by the community, and I don't. When I watched football last year, I saw a player that was a difference maker on every down for this franchise that made the playoffs and was the best friend of Baker. So I'm going to go with Rashad White. You weren't thinking about Malik there, huh?

Not really. No, I mean, I just – not with Rashad White on the board. DK Metcalf goes next. Devontae Smith to the Falcon. And then we see Mike back on the clock, Brees Hall, Isaiah Pacheco, Jalen Waddell. So the running backs, I mean, I have two what I consider top-tier running backs, and it's the dead zone for me of Mixon, Kamara, Aaron Jones.

I do like James Conner, Montgomery, and Swift, where it's just because I have two of them, I don't feel the urge to jump into the dead zone. I mean, it's a Jason My Guy parade. Oh, your team's going to be delightful. So, Brie Saul, Pacheco, Jalen Waddell. And then looking at my rankings, I have Tank Dell inside my top 24. So, I think that rounds me out where I feel strong enough with that base.

So, you took Tank Dell. Malik Neighbors goes to Kyle at 408, so he's in. And then Kamara off the board at 409. This round, the two running backs that have gone in this round, I think, are the unsexy yet very productive Rashad White and Alvin Kamara. It doesn't feel good, but it will. I'm on the side of it should work, but it feels like you're waiting. You're just waiting for the shoe to drop of what's going to go wrong.

Not me, Mike. No shoes. I'm not waiting for a shoe to drop on Rashad White. I'm less waiting on Kamara. He'll get a billion receptions. It's more on Rashad White. We'll take that debate into the season.

Katrin goes Trey McBride at 4'10". So, Jason, you are on the clock now with CeeDee Lamb, Derek Henry, Devon Achan. Drafting out of the two spot, I have noticed you've got the quick turn. I've got the quick turn on the other side, as does Papa Josh.

I really do enjoy that sometimes. From a predictability standpoint. It's really nice when you're within two picks of the turn and you can look at the team or the two or maybe even three teams that are picking between your pick and your next one, take a look at their positions, say, oh, they've already got a quarterback. I don't need to do that. There's a good chance that they're not going to draft a running back here.

Use that as a strategy. It's really, really nice. I'm here, and I'm very disappointed. The way that I had built my team starting CeeDee Lamb and then two running backs, I love fourth-round wide receivers this year. Yeah, you were hoping for Tank Dell. I love Tank Dell. I love Devontae Smith. I love fourth round wide receivers this year. Yeah, you were hoping for Tank Dell. I love Tank Dell. I love Devontae Smith. I love DK Metcalf. I love Malik Neighbors. And those guys all just went. Yeah. What happened to your plan? My plan is going a little bit higher

tee. I agree with you, Andy. Two unsexy players who are probably really good picks in Rashad White and Alvin Kamara in the fourth round. They're going to put up a lot of fantasy points in boring fashion. I'm going to draft Joe Mixon, who's going to do the same thing. Oh, we're going fourth round boring. We're going fourth round quality boring running backs. As my running back three, I think Derek Henry, Devon A. Chan, Joe Mixon, That is a solid core I can kind of rely on, and now I'll be focused on finding more value at wide receiver through the draft. So you found the testosterone after your first round. The best part of this year will be when Mike loses to a Rashad White-Mixon combo.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. I'm just saying I'm worried about Rashad White. I'm fully out on mixing. I just don't. I literally cannot find the capacity to a path that Rashad White's not great. There's nobody in that depth chart that has any impact on Rashad White. Right now, we feel like that. Which, I mean, this was the same thing with Tucker and Edmonds,

and those guys are nothing too. You're saying that of Bucky Irving. Yeah, I mean, Bucky Irving, he's not a threat to Rashad White. He might be a compliment, but not a threat. You know, the biggest threat to Rashad White is Rashad White. That's my problem. But you have to have somebody that can come in and do something better than him. And I don't think they have anything close to that from a workload perspective.

I think there's a place in fantasy football for the Rashad Whites, for the Leonard Fournette. Leonard Fournette was someone no one ever wanted because he looked so bad on the field later in his career. And he kept scoring a ton of fantasy points. And he kept going, you can't keep getting away with it. Why are you giving them so much work? That's what Joe Mixon's going to do. That's what Alvin Kamara and Rashad White are going to do in the fourth. So after me, Lamar Jackson went, Michael Pittman went, and I chose to go Mixon because of the wide receivers that were left.

The guy that I actually liked the most is a little bit further down in ADP. It was a guy who Andy kind of finally saw the light on. He's a wide receiver, too, for his team. But he's really good. His quarterback's good. The offense should be good. T. Higgins. See, I didn't know if you were lying or not.

So you went T. Higgins then at 5-0-2 to pair with Lamb as your wide outs with Henry, H.N., and Mixon. And we'll take a quick break, come back, and talk the rest of this draft. All right. Jason just took T Higgins. Amari Cooper went next. I, you know, that decision between those two guys is pretty interesting. That was the decision for me. It was, it was between Higgins and Cooper. I like both of those players, but when I look at their quarterbacks, I'm going to take the one I believe in. I thought the pick was going to actually be Mark Andrews because it would have

been a fifth round Mark Andrews. You love Mark Andrews, and I suppose the Mixon selection kind of boxed you out of him. Yes, that's exactly right. Mixon being on the board there was too good of a value, but because I was going into the fifth with only one wide receiver, I feel like I can punt tight end easier than wide receiver. All right, Mike, you are on the clock. Who's the selection? So Team 4 took Mark Andrews, and then Kyle took Dalton Kincaid.

Mark Andrews was a – that's who I was – I thought was going to fall to me. So now the tight end pool is either George Kittle or, for me, essentially Punt. And then at the wide receiver position, it would be between George Pickens and Calvin Ridley, the two of them. I do have Pickens a little bit higher in my rankings between the two of them. I don't like what's going on with the quarterback situation for Pittsburgh. I mean, not that I believe in Will Levis a whole bunch more, but it's uneasy.

You can't let Andy get Ridley. That is a good point. That's how you want to draft is spiding somebody else. That's how real drafts happen. Real drafts happen when you know the guy next to you really wants this dude and you're like, I'm taking him. I'll take Calvin Ridley. Hey, I'm going to take a victory lap that Ridley's a 5.06 at this point.

So, Connor goes next. I would have taken Ridley this round, though. Of course. Connor goes next. Zay Flowers, who has somewhat been invisible. A little bit, yeah, for us. In the discussions, yeah. And so I'm back on the clock.

Kyron and Rashad White, Laporta went the onesie, and then A.J. Brown was my first-round pick. Pickens is jumping out at me as an option here with no ridley on the board and then at running back you know i could turn turn to david montgomery swift remandre nausea there's some unsexy options or i can go fifth round quarterback and um i'll probably gamble on you know one guy getting back to me at quarterback in the sixth and so i'll take george pickens i do believe in the talent and he's just you know leaps and bounds ahead of the rest of the depth chart there so i'll take pickens in

the fifth round consolation pickens that sure papa josh goes cj stroud and then it goes richardson kittle aaron jones and kyle pitts so four out of five picks quarterbacks are tight ends nice uh which you know i was doing the kyler murley kyler murray gamble and it paid off stroud richardson, Kittle, Jones, Pitts, Ramondre. I don't want to pick it too quick. Montgomery's still there. But I am going to go with Kyler Murray in the sixth round. All right. Montgomery off the board next.

We've got Mosterd going at 606. That's a great pick. Almost as good as the pick that I am about to make. Make sure you scroll down, everyone. ADP is a powerful thing that is right in front of your face. But, Jay, how far away from the football season? Oh, you son of a gun. He's in my queue.

No. Rasheed Rice. No. I almost took him last round. That's where he is in my queue. No. Rasheed Rice. No. I almost took him last round. That's where he is in my projections, but I studied the field, and I felt that they would not. He was so far down in ADP. I just had him in my queue.

He was automatically. I wasn't paying attention to this turn because I was going to take Rasheed Rice here. No, you're not. It was funnier when Ridley was taken from me, right? Yeah, that was a good goof. That was a good, nice goof. All right, Mike went with Rashi Rice here.

Terry McLaurin went next to the Borgogin himself and Joe Burrow. So we've had four quarterbacks go off the board in less than a round. Roma Dunze goes off the board at 6'10". And, Jason, you're back on the clock with Liam Higgins, Henry H. and Mixon. I'm I'm here and I'm a little upset uh Terry McLaurin would have been a great uh option for me here to go with Higgins and Lamb uh unfortunately he left at that wide receiver the guys that are on the board I'm not super excited still more Chiefs wide receivers you can take. Look, Xavier Worthy,

I'm fine taking a shot on him. He's an exciting speedster, rookie, first rounder for Mahomes. This is a guy I believe in the talent of. I do think rookie year, you're going to have Rushie Rice really be like, I like Xavier Worthy in dynasty, but I'm not going to take the shot here. Instead, I will go with the wide receiver that Andy besmirched yesterday, Jaden Reed. I don't believe everything Mike wrote for him. I think Jaden Reed is talented. I want shots of good offenses.

There was some stuff in that that was really upsetting. I didn't know it was down. Was it the hardcore statistics about regression? No, it was the subjective opinion about talent. Oh, when you called him mid? Why would you do that, Andy? When I said he was fine-ish and mid and not talented.

So garbage. Yeah, so now here I am. I'm on the clock. So you took Jaden Reed. I took Jaden Reed. I took Jaden Reed. I'm looking at my options across the board. I've got what I think are three good wide receivers, three good running backs. So I'm taking a look at the onesie positions.

Tight ends or whatever. I don't care about them at this point. I'm not going to draft a tight end until late. I'll probably end up with like Pat Fryermuth, and I'm personally fine with that. Quarterback, I could stack CeeDee Lamb with Dak, and that is a little bit exciting to me. I haven't ended up with Dak anywhere. I could also stack Jaden Reed with Jordan Love and then, you know, play the game for Jaden Daniels later. Wide receiver, I'm not excited.

So I'm going to do that. I'm going to have fun. I'm going to take the Dak CD stack that won people championships last year and hope they stay on fire. I think it's a great pick. I think it's perfect for your team, and I think it's a value. So both of those things, like clicking the button on Kyler above Dak is still hard for me to do.

I think Dak has proven how dominant he can be for fantasy purposes and then you get the correlation. That's great. Najee finally goes at 703. Great value there again. Pollard off the board and Godwin the next three picks. Mike with Brees, Hall, Pacheco, Waddell, Dell,

Ridley, and Rice has the 706. This is going swimmingly because I evaluated this turn to see what positions they were going to need to pick. Three of them had a tight end. New Jason always disrespects Schmevin Schmangrum. I thought I would be punting tight end too, but in the seventh round. You did.

No way, man. I'll be taking Evan Ingram. You just did it. You successfully punt. I'll be taking Evan Ingram. You just did it. You successfully punted tight end. I love Ingram. I'm with Mike. Brock Bowers went next. Where was he last year?

I think he was like tight end two or three. Because of week 18. Before that, he would not have been two. Yeah, but they got rid of some of their wide outs. In the seventh, I think that's – I said I'm punting because I figured there was no way that Ingram would keep falling. Bowers, who we got word would be available for week one with the injury scare.

Kirk goes next, so a couple of Jags, depending on your definition of that. Jaguars go two picks apart. I'm back on the clock. I've taken a couple onesies. It's a little bit different here. Kyler was my pick last round, but I'm going to take the shot on the rookie. I didn't think he would slip all the way over to me,

but I'm going to take Xavier Worthy at 709. I loved what I saw in the preseason. When you talk about he could have half the receptions as Rashi Rice and the same amount of fantasy points. That's the kind of player he is. The separation, downfield. McConkie goes next. Zemir White, Nick Chubb, Javante Williams,

and Zach Moss going into the eighth round. Austin Eckler off the board to Papa Josh at 8-0-3, and I am back on the clock, boys. I'm going to take the discount on Jalen Warren, a round behind a very underrated Najee Harris, but Warren's supposed to be healthy and back out there in week one

for this team that's going to run the football with Arthur Smith, and he is the more explosive player and I think the more valuable player. So I'll get him around later. And Addison and Jalen Daniels go next. Yeah, so Jalen Daniels, again, this is more, I think, in line of you're going to have people who are willing to go in and reach for Daniels so you, in your competitive leagues, don't just expect for sure you can get him in double-digit rounds.

Be willing to go in on him for the eighth. That doesn't bother me. So I started two running backs and have not taken one since. So I've got to start bolstering my running back depth. And the first one I'm going to go with, I'm going to take Gus Edwards of the Los Angeles Chargers. All the things I've talked about of, you know, high-powered offense with running backs that are drafted late.

That's where you go. Oh, thank you. That's where you want to take some shots. Again, I agree with Jason, who just talked about the sleeper pick of J.K. Dobbins. I don't mind that shot at all. It's just I think Gus Edwards is a slightly better shot at being the guy all right Jonathan Brooks goes next Hollywood and JSN and then Jason on the clock after the DAC pick

yeah oh that was throwing it to me so I really sounded like you were gonna continue talking um sorry about that yeah no no you are on the clock so I want to bring up the Jonathan Brooks pick I I love it I was eyeballing him here I've got three running backs he could start kind of on the bench I was curious though because this is a pick that I believe that's the the second running back for for Kyle and that's that's hard to grab a guy that is not going to play to start the season as you're running back two. But we're in the nasty boys of 2024 here, and if you think you have upside in the second half,

I think you can try and figure it out. Yeah, that's fine. I wanted to take someone like Ladd McConkie. Next time don't defend Kyle, Mike. Unfortunately, Ladd was gone. I will take Keon Colemanman we never know exactly who the great rookie wide receivers are going to be but pairing one that was highly drafted with josh allen i'll take the shot like that kind of hurt you it's a take like emotionally yeah i mean

i could see the path you know you want to you want to take shots on good offenses and um high draft capital players so So that's what I did. Najoku and Singletary go next. Jason, you're on the clock. I feel like I have sufficiently punted tight end enough. I would be okay with Pat Fryermuth later, but here in the ninth round with Ferg Daddy sitting there, I will take Jake Turd Ferguson.

Christian Watson and Jordan Love go next. Kyborg on the clock after that Jonathan Brooks pick. I think he's probably eyeballing. Yep, there he goes. Yeah, Jerome Ford. That's the pick. Jerome Ford. I mean, he played it right if Jason really was looking at Jonathan Brooks.

I would have taken Jonathan Brooks. So, yeah, good job. Mike, you're back on the clock after the Gus Edwards pick. Yeah, so I'm attacking those teams for running backs. Gus Edwards, Zach Moss is unfortunately already gone. He would have been my pick in the eighth and then hoping that I could get Gus

later. But I will take the chance on Chase Brown of the Cincinnati Bengals and see if maybe he becomes the guy. Now, was that? No, Zach Moss went one round earlier. Yeah. If you want to see the entire draft board, by the way,

you can go to our YouTube channel. That's youtube.com slash the fantasy footballers and check out the entire draft board. It's a fun way to watch it. A couple more quarterbacks going off the board. Goff and Purdy in this round. I am back on the clock. Yeah, the Falcon got Amon Raw

and Jared Goff. I was eyeballing one name that I hoped fell all the way through the eighth and ninth round that is still there. And the only hesitation I would have is the fact that i just drafted a rookie wide receiver

two rounds earlier in xavier worthy but i'm going to pull the trigger here yes i'm going to take brian thomas jr in the ninth round 100 my build didn't allow me to take him i was i was debating that was my debate between keon coleman and brian thomas that was shocking to me that you decided to roll it with Coleman this time. Again, I'm trying to focus on the offenses. There was Josh Allen versus Trevor Lawrence. That's all it was to me.

Yeah, makes perfect sense. There was some very hyperbolic hype train chatter. Do tell. just more Brian Thomas just just just that he he might it was something like he might

have Jamar chase Justin Jefferson stuff like that's that was the talk from some people watching him at camp is that that might be some of the makeup we're seeing Johnson Caleb Williams Trey Benson to a Brian Robinson and stupid computer teams Tajay Spears.

Taking all the quarterbacks. So looking at the lay of the land here, there is one name I'm going to pick up because I've got a Kyron Williams in the second round, and I'm going to take Blake Corham. Oh, that was who I was hoping made it to me. I'm going to take Blake Corham at 10.04, second to last pick, and just do a little risk mitigation. That is a great pick.

It's one of the only ones that I look for pairing because of how late he is. If you can get the backup who is pretty much locked in as a great fantasy asset should your starter go down and you're getting them in the double digits. It's a wonderful pick. Well, thank you, Jason. Goddard and Shakir off the board next. And Mike, you're back on the clock. You've gone Edwards and Chase Brown, adding to your running back depth.

Ingram's on the roster. You're going to have to select a quarterback over the next two picks. And I can't risk it anymore with these absolute scoundrels. Oh, that's why you were so mad at – And snakes. Yeah. Yeah, I was going to take Tua, and then I'll have Tua Waddle.

I'll feel confident about that. So now at this point, I'm not panicking because of all the quarterbacks are going – they're flying off the board. I'm looking at the early strength of schedule and, you know, trying to project who's got some good games. Baker would fit the mold of Washington and then Detroit. Matthew Stafford gets Detroit and then Arizona. I think that that's a pretty good opening combo of games.

Do I go with those couple games, or do I hope that Justin Herbert is really ready to go for week one. And I think I'm a little nervous about that, so I'm going to stream those first couple games with my draft pick, and then I will figure it out. All right. Mike went with Matthew Stafford. And then Kyle.

He had to kick me right in the gonads. He hit you right in the dowdles. Yes. Rico Dowdle off the board. Rico Suave, as Mike calls him. DeAndre Hopkins goes next. Justin Herbert off the board, which was a choice for you, Mike. And then, Jason, you are back on the clock.

You're going to make your final two picks here, so just do them back-to-back. Yeah, I'm going to take a running back and a wide receiver. Both of these I'm looking for high explosive potential that could surprise or get cut. Those are clear to me and I'm sure that the second one will make it back based on ADP. So I'm going to take Jamison Williams to start.

Hope that he finally does what he should have done on the NFL field as the wide receiver too for another great offense. And then at running back, J.K. Dobbins. I brought him up on the sleeper episode. To me, he's a perfect last round pick in the sense that week one, he's either going to be like the starter and really involved or he's not.

And then I either have a really nice pick for a good offense that wants to run the ball a lot, or I know exactly who I'm swapping out on the week one waiver wire. So Dobbins will bolster my roster. All right. I like that. that wants to run the ball a lot, or I know exactly who I'm swapping out on the week one waiver wire. So Dobbins will bolster my roster. All right, I like that. Final pick Dobbins is going to be a common theme, I think, in all of our drafts this year.

Polk, Hawkinson, Dobbs, Mike, your final selection, anybody you want. Just don't take the guy I want. I hope I do. My wide receiver crew, it's really solid of Jalen Waddell, Tank Del Calvin, Ridley Rasheed Rice. So I don't, looking at the players who are at the top of ADP, you know, Curtis Samuel, Tyler Locke, Jacoby Myers, even Josh Palmer. I'll throw him in there. They're stabilizers, but I don't think that at this point they're going to really take off and become something huge. And them cracking my lineup over those four guys, if everything goes to plan, not very likely. So, with that said, I'm going to look at Adonai Mitchell from the Colts has been getting pub as a rookie wide receiver. But I'm going to take the shot on the first-round wide receiver. I will take Xavier Ligette and hope that he is ready to go

and hope he can help turn around the Carolina offense. Zeke goes next. Who would have been in consideration? He went to the Falcon, Charbonnet with Team 8. And I was hoping this would happen. You got your guy. My final pick in this draft, I don't draft to trade, except for maybe one guy.

Because I know. I know how fantasy players get when they don't have a tight end. And sometimes one big game gets you the opportunity to trade away a tight end. And Taysom Hill will be the pick. Multi-positional opportunity. I hear there's other platforms that are adopting. They're moving Taysom back to tight end eligible. Yahoo did it this morning. Right.

So Taysom Hill at 1109. I have picked up Taysom, had him blow up, and traded him before. That's been a part of the Taysom experience. So if you catch lightning in a bottle in week one, why not? Well, in this one, Papa Josh is in the league, and so know your league. He would have been gone with the next pick. Curtis Samuel, who the team is saying they hope will be back for week one, goes with the third-to-last pick.

Lockett, kind of alast pick, Lockett. Kind of a moment there with Lockett, having him go almost as Mr. Irrelevant in the draft. I don't know if the retirement ceremony is too soon for him or not. We're going to find out whether the JS intake was way off base and then Friar Muth with the last pick in the draft. So running these teams back, again, you can see the entire draft board on the YouTube channel. I'm sure we'll share some graphics out. My team at wide receiver, AJ Brown, George Pickens, Xavier Worthy, Brian Thomas Jr. Feels a little thin,

but also top heavy, a little bit hero wide receiver there. Kyron Williams, Rashad White, Jalen Warren, and Blake Corum at my running back position and my onesies. Kyron Williams, Rashad White, Jalen Warren, and Blake Corum at my running back position in my onesies. Kyler Murray, Sam Laporta. I guess it's not a onesie if you take two of them. Taysom Hill also on the roster as an extra quarterback, tight end, and whatever else they want to classify him as. My onesies,

I've got the stack in Dak and Jake Ferguson. Super stacked with CeeDee Lamb. Then I've got Tee Higgins, Jaden Reed, Keon Coleman, and Jamison Williams. With Derek Henry, Devon A. Chan, Joe Mixon, and J.K. Dobbins at

running back. At running back, I've got Brees Hall, Isaiah Pacheco, Gus Edwards, and Chase Brown. My wideouts are Jalen Waddell, Tank Dell, Calvin Ridley, Rasheed Rice, and then Evan Ingram. Oh, and Xavier Legheed Rice, and then Evan Ingram. Oh, and Xavier Leguette. I apologize.

Evan Ingram and Stafford. People ask us all the time, where do you really want to draft? Aside from the Stafford pick, this is my favorite team that we've mock drafted so far this year. I guess I like the six. Yeah, if you had taken Jaden Daniels a little bit earlier, you'd be thrilled with this. Or even just Goff

Purdy or Tua in that selection instead of Stafford. Could happen in a lot of drafts. Would love it. Alright, if you didn't know, in addition to being the number one fantasy platform, Sleeper also has DFS picks. You can download the app now and use the code BALLERS to get a 100% deposit match.
