Starting point is 00:00:43 Oh, welcome in. on the precipice of one of the largest draft weekends of the year. Welcome into the fantasy footballers. Mike the fantasy hitman, Jason Moore. I'm Andy Holloway. Gentlemen, we are here. It's Friday. We've got a mock draft episode today.
Starting point is 00:01:21 A super mock. Super flex. For all those two QB people out there, which there are a lot of you. I play in. There are a lot. I mean, we all play in a few Super Flex leagues. It is not necessarily our preferred format, but it's fun. And you can say, you know, it changes a little bit of strategy.
Starting point is 00:01:38 I think people think it changes way more strategy than it does. But yeah. I know Mike would agree with that. And I think it'll be a chance for us to revisit player values today on the show. We'll be drafting against the footballer staff. And that'll be a good time. We're drafting back to back to back. That'll be kicking off here.
Starting point is 00:01:59 in a few minutes, so looking forward to seeing how these teams shape up, and I was in the UDK app yesterday, marking a few players for later in the draft. So it's starting to get... Getting ready for the real thing. Yeah, we've got our draft on Labor Day for our league of
Starting point is 00:02:15 record, and then we're in the midst of some other drafts right now, but... You know what other drafts are coming up? Oh!

Starting point is 00:02:41 listener league. Speaking of all the listener league submissions, we have made our way through them. We shall be selecting people today and contacting them in short order. Okay. Yeah, we're ready to get the listener league going again for 2025. That's exciting. I perused several entries yesterday. A lot of good stuff out there. So thank you. It's hard. We only get to choose a handful of people to join us, but it doesn't mean we don't appreciate all of the entries and the time put into them. They are awesome, and your passion for fantasy is awesome, and we love you all very much. Ultimate draft kit.com, if you want to pick that up before the big weekend, let's talk some news.
Starting point is 00:03:21 News and Notes from Around the League, presented by Progressive Insurance. All right. It's funny because I think Jason a couple days ago mentioned Romeo Dobbs is one of those potential trade targets for teams. Matt LaFleurr- He heard. He heard me talking about it. Yeah, addressed trade rumors said, quote, that will not happen. Okay. So at least that's what Matt LaFleur is saying. That's fine. I think it should have it. It just makes sense for all parties.
Starting point is 00:03:49 Does it? I think so because I don't think that Romeo Dobbs is a needle mover for this version of the Packers. with their receiving core you know craft is going to be able to step up if Dobbs was gone you've got the first round rookie obviously Jaden Reed's health maybe I don't know whether he's truly healthy or not if you take Dobbs off the team
Starting point is 00:04:09 look at least historically Jane Reed just plays the slot you go to two wide who's the number two wide receiver then I mean this is where Jaden Reed needs to be on the field more we're all hoping yeah it would be Wix who is hurt and can't catch Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:25 Which is one of the top things I've liked in my wide receivers. I think where Romeo Dobbs is, I can agree that maybe he's not like a needle mover, you know, on the extreme positive side. But I think he might be a needle mover for the Packers if you take him off. Sure. You know what I mean. Yeah, no, I actually agree with that. By the way, the Vikings, apparently, according to Adam Schaefter,
Starting point is 00:04:48 I actually first saw this from Kay Adams. Did you? She was interviewing their head coach Kevin O'Connell and talked about how she would love to see a reunion between the Vikings and wide receiver Adam Feelein. Makes so much sense. I'm back, baby. You draft Tedroa and McMillan.
Starting point is 00:05:08 You've got Legat. This is like, let's build for the- Coker, you've got Renfro. Yeah, build for the future. I mean, you're not Super Bowl-bound or challenging really for anything of note other than camaraderie and, you know, a good meshing young core for the future, get something for Adam Thielen, who right now the Vikings, they are banged up. Justin Jefferson is back to practice, but he's not doing
Starting point is 00:05:33 much. The first place I saw it, Andy, and we're going to give the shout of, Charch. Oh, yeah. All Charchy and was tweeting about this weeks ago. Minnesota man. Yeah. Yeah, the, you know, that would be quite the reunion. He could really help them. He really could move the needle. And right now, Ronnell Moore is already out for the entire year. Jalen Ehlers hurt, Addison suspended. I've been in a couple drafts recently where, you know, I've talked about this a lot on my ice.
Starting point is 00:06:00 It was basically don't draft fifth round tight in. There's good players there and the difference between fifth round tight ends and ninth round tight ends. They aren't worth what you sacrifice. However, I've seen Hawkinson. Starting to get hot about Hawk? I've seen Hawkinson drop in plenty of leagues where he's, you know, he's in the seventh, eighth round. And he should get off to a hawk start because. Okay.
Starting point is 00:06:21 There it was. You know, thank you. If you've got Jordan Addison, you know for a fact, Addison's not playing the first three weeks. We don't know exactly how healthy Justin Jefferson is right now. He's coming off of the hamstring issue. And then Nailer is definitely injured. So the first couple of weeks, Hawkinson's going to be extremely utilized.
Starting point is 00:06:44 All right. Jim Harbaugh, Chargers updates here. Declined to address whether Naji could begin the regular season on the reserve. NFI list. Uh-oh. So we don't have inside information here at all, but just speculating, it seems from what he is currently doing in practice to say, let's go get tackled at, you know, have some helmet smash into your helmet by NFL players in real games in a couple weeks.
Starting point is 00:07:17 I don't know. I lean towards him not being active. It's a really weird situation. We got some information from, like, talking to an eye surgeon, like, of the potential outcomes from an incident. Like, there's only so many things that can happen to an eyeball, legitimately. And it's like, there's either the great severity of, like, needing surgery for something, which he did not get.
Starting point is 00:07:38 Or there is... Is that a Mac Jones, though? I don't think so. Like, other dudes would have got surgery. Everybody else would have got surgery. I don't think you Mac Jones with the eye. Yeah. But otherwise, it's like, because of the time...
Starting point is 00:07:51 timing, right? This was, what, July 4th? Yeah. So because of the timing. That is the 4th of July. Yeah, math checks out on that one. Wait, what do you mean? I mean, it was a 4th of July accident. It was firework. Right, right. No, what was that date again? To be fair, if you check out my neighborhood, it could have been July 8th. I don't know. Left over fireworks. Get going. All right. Well, thank you. Yes, July 4th, the incident should have, like, it could have been healed by now, right? So then there's only a certain amount of things that could happen, it very well could be related to vision, just vision and pain tolerance. And like both of those things, obviously that's going to affect you on the
Starting point is 00:08:32 field if you're trying to run the football. So we don't know what the... I don't think there's a shot for eye pain. You know how like if you're back, you're knee, you get drops though. Okay. They have drops that numb your eyes. Yeah. Quentin Johnston. Or an eye surgery is going to be. That's bad. That's a bad time. There's stuff. If you get stuff in your eye, a lot of the times it cannot do anything. They cannot go in and search and remove it. You just have to live with it and deal with it.
Starting point is 00:09:01 The amount of things that we have to learn about for a fantasy football show. Can we just make this more simple here? Yeah. Individual drills for Quentin Johnston in practice. So he is on his way back. Commander's head coach talked about Chris Rodriguez Jr., handling the short-yardage goal line.
Starting point is 00:09:20 opportunities. Austin Echler is obviously there. We have Jeremy McNichols, and then we've got, go ahead. Bill, Bill, Bill, Bill, Bill. He could pick an orange from an apple tree. Oh, my gosh. Perfection. So it is one of the handful of muddy backfields
Starting point is 00:09:44 that you have a great quarterback in an offense you might believe in. But right now, if it does. does break down into two or three running backs. It's going to be a hard week-to-week start situation. You'd think that Austin Echler would be the leader in the clubhouse in terms of who you draft. He certainly will be who I draft first. But it will be disappointing. I mean, we talk about the three things that you want for a great fantasy running back.
Starting point is 00:10:08 Opportunity. We don't know exactly what that breaks down to. Good team. We got that. But then goal line opportunity. Like, Echler might not have that. Right. So Dan Quinn was pretty, like, they were like, is it fair to say that?
Starting point is 00:10:20 you know, Chris Rodriguez is going to be that guy. He's like, yeah. I mean, that was a pretty good answer. I'm not going to hit the breaking news button on this one. But Adam Levittan is doing some snooping on the internets. And Adam Thielen's wife on Instagram posted a just a story that says big news, all caps. Heart, heart, heart. But not just a heart, Jason.
Starting point is 00:10:46 Oh, oh. Heart exclamation point, which I have never seen. Apparently that's one of them Well, let me add some to Do we got more? No, I'm just reinterpreting this This looks like, I mean, is that a black background or a purple background?
Starting point is 00:10:59 I see a little purple. That's definitely purple. If it's a purple background. Without a doubt, I'm looking at it purple next to black It's purple. That's not Minnesota purple though. Yeah, but that's, I mean, purple's perfect. You know, you got to be vague.
Starting point is 00:11:11 What are you talking about? It's not, she's not going to come out with a Vikings logo. Yeah, man, this is purple. That's purple for sure. I mean, basically, we're reporting out, I'm feeling trade to the Vikings. Yeah, all right. I'm updating my UDK immediately. We had some football
Starting point is 00:11:26 last night. We had Cam Skadaboo back out there on the field. We love to see that. We had the trifecta of dub eaters. Oh, man. James Winston, Jackson Dart. Tommy DeVito. Yeah. You want people to fall in love
Starting point is 00:11:42 with your team. I'm falling in love with the Giants right now. I don't think they're going to be good, but like they the vibes they're having fun and this is I think really good news for Jackson Dart
Starting point is 00:11:53 for his future like he's he's set up where he doesn't have to go right into the the wolves den oh he may be he may be there soon
Starting point is 00:12:00 well he might play his way there for sure I just mean like the way their schedule is they have a brutal schedule like how long can Winston
Starting point is 00:12:09 last with the way Jackson Dar's played this preseason I don't know but Scataboo being out there who gets the the boot I mean probably DeVito
Starting point is 00:12:19 Oh, you mean Doesn't make the roster? Yeah Oh, for sure DeVito I mean you're going to have James and you're going to have Russell and then you're going to have DART Those three will be like are they Oh right I'm like are they going to Cleveland Browns this and carry four?
Starting point is 00:12:31 No, they wouldn't do that I guess Yeah, you're right Maths out there Who knows? So yeah we had some Sorry Cutler Your cutlets You're gone
Starting point is 00:12:43 We did have We're going to cutlets you Jalen Warren was out there I can't even say the word I can't switch brick Jalen Warren was out there playing Kenneth Gainwell came in after him Caleb Johnson got some time
Starting point is 00:13:03 got darned up he got blown up on a kick return yeah he was uh let's not have him returning kicks he's he's a vision patience guy and he's like jogging down the field waiting for something to happen. That's like, that's not his forte. Just put him behind the line.
Starting point is 00:13:21 All right, that was today's news and note, sponsored by Progressive Insurance. Quote today at Progressive.com. Progressive Casualty Insurance Company affiliates and third-party insurers, not available in all states or situations, coverage subject to policy terms, limits, and conditions. We're not going to wait any longer. We're going to jump right in. The Fantasy Footballers Mock Draft. All righty.
Starting point is 00:13:45 We have a 12-team. half PPR super flex mock draft so one quarterback two running back two wide receiver one tight in one flex one super flex and so a lot of quarterbacks going to be off the board the big differential there obviously we talk so much about onesie positions being quarterbacks and tight ends and the fact that look you don't have to compete there are a lot of the quarterbacks out there that are going to make an impact on a on a daily or a yearly basis and only 12 of them get started in your league normally. In a Superflex, you're talking about 75% of, you know, quarterbacks in the league being played and mattering. So it's going to change a supply and demand
Starting point is 00:14:26 issue. Like when you talk about tight ends or versus quarterbacks at the onesy position, or even if you go running backs or wide receivers and you need two. So, you know, there's 24 starting running backs. Well, there's far more than that. At quarterback, when you're starting 24, there are 32 total every week that start. I mean, obviously, that start the game, there are 32, and that's if there's no buy week. So every single quarterback will be drafted in a
Starting point is 00:14:51 Superflex league, and then the waiver wire will only be injuries in the future, because you're usually, we won't do it on this mock, we won't go deep enough, but you're usually in a true Superflex. You're drafting the promising backups as well. Yep. So our draft spots in this draft, Mike,
Starting point is 00:15:07 at two, I'm at three, Jason at four. First pick off the board, Julia went with Josh Allen, not a surprise. Mike, you are on the clock as we get this first round underway. Yep, so with the second pick, there are still elite quarterbacks on the board. When I'm in Superflex, my strategy is generally when I'm up at the top. If an elite difference maker is there, I will go with them. But once that tier melts down, then I want an elite player in the first round.
Starting point is 00:15:34 I don't want, you know, the QB6 in the first round over a top tier. running back or wide receiver, but I'm at the top, so I'm going to make it easy and take Lamar. Well, if I had been staring down Lamar, Jaden, I actually would have gone Jaden in this draft. Jaden is who I'll take at the 103, only because of... Because you don't like 4,040, I got it. No, no, because of the Lamar Jackson... Oh, the foot. Foot injury right now.
Starting point is 00:16:03 He's fine. I've seen some people more concerned about the Ravens maybe not being as open with that injury. We have been told he's fine, but if it's that tight, I would maybe go that direction. The only concern you need to have about Lamar is how forthright are they with the information about his diarrhea? He does miss games for that. That's the only thing that's what's taking him off the field, not that foot. He's fine. I will say, you know, when you're talking about the big, you know, the best quarterbacks, the top four or five, if you throw burrow in there, I see Lamar as the clear pick outside of the injury.
Starting point is 00:16:39 Like, I would have taken Lamar over Lamar Jackson. You would have taken Lamar over Lamar Jackson? Yeah, Lamar over Josh Allen. I would have taken him as the first quarterback off the board, but I will say that when there is this injury concern and it's hopefully nothing, probably nothing. But when you're splitting hairs over elite, elite, or elite options, I don't blame you, Andy, for going, well, I'm just going to take the healthy elite one.
Starting point is 00:17:02 Do you, that's a question for Jaden Daniels. Do we really think he can get there? I think he can absolutely get there. Now, he has his own risk because he has to level up. He can't just do what he did last year and be worthy of that. But I, you know, based on what he did, I definitely think he could get there. You saw Kyler take that second year leap forward with Cliff Kingsbury, and this will be the second year with Cliff Kingsbury.
Starting point is 00:17:27 Oh, baby. Breaking news. Oh, my goodness. The commanders have traded Brian Robinson, Jr. to the 49ers. for a six round Oh, the check-in. Oh, my gosh. This is great.
Starting point is 00:17:45 So, Mike, where are you drafting Christian McCaffrey? 101. Wow. Brian Robb. Are you serious? Do you think Brian Robinson matters to Christian McCaffrey? Would Jordan Mason have mattered to you? No.
Starting point is 00:18:00 No. And Jordan Mason's a much better running back. I think that they, this is a player who could take the, you know, instead of having Christian McCaffrey play 90% of the snaps and have, you know, 350 touches through the course of the year, you could have some of that go away.
Starting point is 00:18:18 It's not going to, it's not going to nerve McCaffrey. They're not going to be in a timeshare. But I'm saying, yeah, 101 is a high bar. 101 versus, you know, the 109. I'm saying 101 as in like, it, this changes nothing for me. Well, let's check it with Kyle. Kyle, you just drafted Christian McCaffrey moments ago.
Starting point is 00:18:36 How do you feel about that pick? Anything changed with your opinion? I ain't scared, no. Brian Robinson lost his spot to a seventh round rookie. Brian Robinson is me. That is not fair. Saying a seventh round rookie when it's Bill Crosky. Oh, I'm so sorry, yes.
Starting point is 00:18:57 Bill Crosky could kill two stones with one bird. I mean, how dare you? The 49ers. It matters to have some players that can take snaps, though. I mean, that's fine. You need bodies to take snaps. And look, he'll be hurt soon because that was the other point we needed to get to is Brian Robinson is definitely getting injured now.
Starting point is 00:19:20 Yeah. It's been the story. So, but it also, it does have implications. I mean, McCaffrey has been hurt three of the last five years. Brian Robinson is now the higher value insurance back on the 49ers that will run the football and need running back. It certainly takes Garindo out of the must-draft if you grab Christian-Caffrey. It puts them in a position where, look, historically speaking, your odds are much greater
Starting point is 00:19:44 that Brian Robinson is starting games for the 49ers this year than he isn't. That's the truth. It has increased today. Even pre-Christian McCaffrey, we saw this all the time. Players get hurt, 49ers get hurt, we got to get back to the draft. I went Jaden Daniels, Jason went Jalen hurt. So the first four off the board, all quarterbacks. this is where you start to see a little bit of
Starting point is 00:20:06 This is where it slows down Yeah, Burrow ends up kind of in his own tier I was on with JJ Zacharisen yesterday talking about this exact thing Burroughs kind of in the top five for some He's also kind of in his own tier because of a pocket passer But Jamar Chase went 105 So that's where he went in the Superflex
Starting point is 00:20:23 Bejohn, not Brian Robinson but Bejohn Robinson at the 106 Burrow at the 107 So the top five off the board Jefferson, Barkley, Lamb, Gibbs, and Kyle,
Starting point is 00:20:36 that pick that Jason just mentioned, at the 112. Amon-Raw St. Brown starts off our second round. Puka, Gentie, Nico, neighbors. So the last five people in the draft,
Starting point is 00:20:47 no QBs with the first two picks. I did that last year in a Superflex. Did not work out well for me. It is viable for sure. But you do eventually what happens you do back yourself into taking quarterbacks when maybe some other values on the board it's just the gamble for that league
Starting point is 00:21:07 Andrew is that a best ball league it was so best ball is certainly a bit different because you can't manage your roster you can't you know go if there is a backup that happens to that isn't picked up and you can stash in a best ball I mean you're drafting how many rounds like 22 yeah so in a in a
Starting point is 00:21:27 in a super flex best ball I would say it is less viable to go with a later round quarterback. Yeah, I mean, I was going to say in a super flex basketball, I think I took four. I think took four or five late and it literally was a nightmare. It was terrible. It was like Daniel Jones and Bryce Young and Derek Carr. I had nobody. I basically ended up with nobody.
Starting point is 00:21:47 So just throwing that out there. We had neighbors, Brian Thomas, Derek Henry. Interestingly, the next quarterback off the board, not Baker, not Kyler, not Patrick Mahomes. It's Bowknicks at 208. All right. I don't mind it. He was the quarterback 7 last year, and he basically did nothing for the first month. With me being back on the clock now, I look at the tiers of different positions.
Starting point is 00:22:11 Obviously, I could take the number one tight end. Or at running back and wide receiver, I want studs there. And so at running back, there's a lot of guys I like. I look at the list, H.N., Bucking Irving, Jonathan Taylor, Josh Jacobs, Cairn, Chase Brown. Love all of them. Marian Hampton. So I'll probably get one of those guys back to me. At wide receiver, there's only two guys that I really like. The top 10 wide receivers to me are clear cut. And there's only two left. Drake London and A.J. Brown's a little hurt right now. So I'll, I'll easily pull
Starting point is 00:22:41 the trigger to get one of those top 10 wide receivers. And then I'll take the leftovers of that tier of running backs that I like. Yeah, I, you know, Ladd McConkey's on the board, obviously. Marv's still there. J.S.N. who I like. I probably am okay swinging back around to the wide receiver. here, especially with A.J. Brown's injury. I'll go ahead and pull the trigger on Achan. I know that the injury risk is out there, but I want to be clear about this. Like, there's one single injury analyst
Starting point is 00:23:11 that has made the comment that he's going to miss three games. I have went out there and done the research and looked, that's an ambitious prediction when somebody doesn't know the ins and outs of the specific injury. It's also not coming from the dolphins. That's not what they're saying. Maybe he misses one. But look, there's a big difference between one.
Starting point is 00:23:26 and three to start the year. A. Chan, Jalen Wright's hurt, right? Madison's gone. Like A. Chan, if he's healthy and getting him this late in the draft, it feels like this is the time to pull the trigger going way behind some other name. Another name to say that isn't there for the dolphins when we're talking about A. Chan is Jonu Smith because the targets that Johnu had in that area, I mean, Devon A. A. Chan's going to be near 100 targets. So I'm going to go with the, you know, confidence play on A. Chan being okay, even if it takes a game or two. Mike with Lamar in the first round. I have Daniels and A. Chan, Jason, with Hertz in London.
Starting point is 00:24:02 You've got Lamar. You've got a pick here. Yep. I agree with Jason's assessment of the wide receivers. I get that the injury is a concern, but I'm a little surprised you didn't go with the J. J.L. Harts, A.J. Brown stack. But that's all right, because I'll take A.J. Brown. All right, A.J. Brown off the board as we get towards the back of the second round, Chase Brown, after A.J. Brown, finishing out the second. We'll take a break, and we'll jump into the third.
Starting point is 00:24:26 All right, Julia, I started with Josh Allen goes Chase Brown, Amarian Hampton to start the third round. Mike, you're back on the clock, Lamar, and A.J. Brown? I am. I made a calculated move going with the wide receiver of like, does Chase Brown come back to me? No, he did not. But it was going to put me in quite the pickle
Starting point is 00:24:55 because I love Chase Brown. Chase Brown is a my guy, but the news in Indianapolis shifted around my rankings. You fart face. Johnny Taylor. I knew. Jonathan Taylor is higher in my rankings now than Chase Brown, because I think that Daniel Jones will,
Starting point is 00:25:12 like the passing work is more secure for Taylor. Is Jones the quarterback the whole season? I don't know. But Jonathan Taylor was all, he was already a good pick, but if we're going to get those, receptions in there? He is a elite pick. He's my number six
Starting point is 00:25:29 running back right now. When you talk about you're outside of the big five of Bejohn, Barclay, McCaffrey, Henry and Gibbs, then he is that next guy up of the next tier. For me, he's my number one. So he I was wanting him when I was looking at London or Jonathan Taylor and I knew you
Starting point is 00:25:45 were going to be the one to take him. I really did. That's right. All right, I have Jaden and A. Chan. I'm going to, you know, it's a mock draft. I'm going to toy around here. I know that there are five teams, actually six after me, that will pick twice, six that don't have quarterbacks. So I'm actually going to pull the trigger on a second quarterback right here, and I'm going to take a player that I have a great deal of confidence in this year, not the highest quarterback by ADP, but I'm going to go Baker-Mayfield here in the third, and I want to just see what
Starting point is 00:26:16 happens with the rest of the quarterback on the way back through. And I like the depth of wide receiver a little bit more. you're back on the clock. Jalen Hurts, Drake London. I've got Jailen Hertz, Drake London. I'm looking for a running back here. I could take the tight end, but with real stud running backs to still have as my running back one, I'm not going to take them over the tight end position. They'll score more points. It would be between three players I really like, Kairn Williams, Josh Jacobs, and Bucky Irving. I have no shares of Bucky Irving. He is highest in my half-PPR rankings. I think he's a fun pick. I didn't like when he was being picked as like the running back six, running back seven,
Starting point is 00:26:53 early in the off season. But at this point, I'm not sure what running back number he is, but it definitely feels appropriate for him. Kyrin goes next. Jason taking Bucky over Kairn, very... 11, running back 11. Very interesting. But Brock Bowers off the board, Josh Jacobs off the board. Papa Josh refusing to draft a quarterback so far. Jefferson, neighbors, Ken Walker. And that's where we're at in the third round. Where are you right now, Mike? Temperature check on Ken Walker. So the temperature check is I haven't moved him.
Starting point is 00:27:28 Let me go. He is my running back 17. I do believe that Charms will get more playtime than he has, and it will be closer to a timeshare. But honestly, he's like Ken Walker probably could use that. Someone else to come in here and take some snaps, take some hits. I think when the
Starting point is 00:27:50 but the real high value touches like when it comes to the receiving game I can't remember who I think it was maybe PFF tweeted it out but I've just like Ken Walker in the last two years is one of the highest rated pass catching running backs for them I just don't think he's going to get that
Starting point is 00:28:07 past catching work this year I think he because we got a new quarterback and then Sharby's very capable there so I'm a little worried about it it's a different system but I'm saying I think that I project that Ken Walker will still get that goal lines. I still think it's Ken Walker. There's probably going to be a few here and there where it'll be charps,
Starting point is 00:28:24 but overall I haven't moved him with the smoke starting to rise of the timeshare. Well, and you do, if you don't draft them, you do not have to worry about the injury risk. That is the one piece of Ken Walker. JSN goes next, Trey McBride, Chuba Hubbard, and Ladd-McConkey drops all the way to 312. But that was interesting. He was the one that I would have taken at 303, had I not taken a quarterback. The quarterback run begins. Herbert goes ahead of Mahomes, who goes ahead of Kyler, who goes ahead of golf, four in a row here in the fourth round. Trayvion Henderson, Topovic Josh, at the 405.
Starting point is 00:29:00 Drake May off the board as the second quarterback for the Falcon, who has Burrow already. So Burrow Drake May combination. T. Higgins off the board at 407, so we've got two teams through four rounds with no quarterbacks playing the later round quarterback gamble situation. Producer Borland went with George Kittle in the fourth round. Jason back on the clock, Hertz, London, Irving. Nice and balanced. You can go where you want. I would have stayed equally balanced and probably taken George Kittle there, but producer Borland grabbed him. So now I think there's a handful of running backs and wide receivers that I like. The quarterbacks to me, they're in a tier where since I've already got Jalen Hertz,
Starting point is 00:29:40 I'm fine playing the hero quarterback, having later guys with a stud. So I'm really just looking at running backs and wide receivers. and when I like a couple at both spots, what I do is I say, well, who do I like further down in which position? And if I scroll and I look at the running backs that are, you know, a little bit further down the list, and I scroll and I look at some of the wide receivers a little bit further down the list. Honestly, I prefer the running backs further down the list, which is surprising to me. I feel like at this point, I'm tempted because it's a mock to take Brees Hall, but I'm not going to do that. I'm going to go a little bit higher upside here,
Starting point is 00:30:17 a little bit riskier, a little bit more fun. I'm going to pull the trigger early on an RJ Harvey. I don't know if that's surprising to you guys, but the utilization in that offense, I think he could very well be, you know, you look at where Gentie went and Omari and Hampton, I'll take the risky rookie. All right, I'm going to go James Cook here in the fourth round.
Starting point is 00:30:37 Mike, I guess you were looking at James Cook. I was. I'm going to stay at running back. Daniels, A. Chan, Mayfield, James Cook, there is, you know, we had conversations yesterday about Trayvion Henderson, James Cook, right? That comparison in a draft. And to me, it just comes down to do you have a running back already? Like, James Cook is going to be so solid. He's not scoring 16 times, but solid is definitely going to be part of the equation for one of the best offenses in football. I went cook, Mike, you're back on the clock, Lamar, A.J. Brown,
Starting point is 00:31:07 Jonathan Taylor So this is the interesting point of the Superflex Where do you I still have some top ten guys For my projections who are left Do you play the game of chicken? Are you talking about quarterbacks? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I still have some top ten quarterbacks left
Starting point is 00:31:26 Play the game of chicken there I wanted James Cook Some but not many probably, right? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Just a handful of names Uh-huh, so running back 80 p-wise on the list We got Brees, we got Camara, Connor, Mixing, Montgomery, you know, it's, we're, we're thinning out there pretty fast. The wide receivers, though, man, they're still upside of Marv, Garrett, Tyreek, my guy, Tedderall McMillan.
Starting point is 00:31:56 Yeah, yeah, so it's, man, I'm going to take, I'm going to take my highest rated wide receiver. I'm thinking about it. I'm going to go with Marv. Yeah, when I took Cook, I was kind of hoping Marv might slip through somehow. He doesn't and probably should have known with Julia not having any whiteouts, Mike. Yeah. With Marv. Tetaroa McMillan and then Caleb Williams off the board as the second quarterback for Julia.
Starting point is 00:32:20 You're back, Mike. I know you're going to have a long wait here. There's a lot of good talent at non-quarterback positions available, but I'm curious where you're going to go. So it's still the same running backs. I don't love them. and I'm going to I'm going to for the mock
Starting point is 00:32:39 Connor Mixing for the mock I'm going to let it ride with the quarterbacks and we'll find out if I'm happy about that decision and not everyone is in on Garrett as much as I am
Starting point is 00:32:50 but I was that you wanting to draft Garrett well yeah it was wow it was just at this point if I'm in the fifth round and I can get 170,000 targets
Starting point is 00:33:01 I'm going to take that and I really going cook I gambled that I'd get one Harrison, McMillan, and Garrett Wilson. I thought one of those three would come around. I'm going to go with the guy that I think is worthy of a wide receiver one spot. I've got a long wait.
Starting point is 00:33:18 I'm not letting him get by me. I think he's going to be the best pick in fantasy for close to it. I'm taking D.K. Metcalfe. My value pick from the value episode a couple days ago. Metcalf was on my short list. However, I have a wide receiver who is still in my top 12 wide receivers above DK. Mattcalf fancy personally left on. the board. So this is what I was talking about when I took the RJ Harvey pick. I loved
Starting point is 00:33:41 Metcalfe. I loved Garrett Wilson. I loved Marv. And above all of them, I loved Mike Evans. Yes, he's older. Yeah, you are, you're on that train. I am. And that's not to take anything away from Igbuka, one of my my guys. But a lot of the reasons I like Egbuka were you can't forget. They also apply to Mike Evans. Like Chris Godwin's not there to start the year. McMillan's not there. So do you feel like though taking Evans? I don't know. Abuka probably doesn't make it back to you. I don't think I would take both.
Starting point is 00:34:12 Usually where Agbuka is, there are other guys I like as well. So I would choose one or the other. Some interesting names dropping right now and I know everyone's listening, but that's how it goes. Tyreek Hill still on the board. Now he's off the board
Starting point is 00:34:28 at 5'10. That is. He'll be such an interesting. He'll be. he'll be nice Mike Andy didn't like that he was a little sour for Andy Oh man Yeah I mean you guys
Starting point is 00:34:45 I don't like fun No I like fun you guys just You've had like a few duds in a row Oh he's dying on this hill Oh man Bank shot So bad All right here go to the quarterbacks Mike
Starting point is 00:35:00 I don't think you're going to get any of your top tier guys back No Dak, Brock, Camara, Jordan Love, James Connor, Tyreek, Cam Ward, off the board. That's an interesting pick ahead of some of these
Starting point is 00:35:15 other guys. Travis Hunter at 512, C.J. Stroud, Travis Kelsey, DJ Moore, Brees Hall, Caleb Johnson. Jameson Williams is gone. That was the dream. Have him all the way. Bets got me. Come all the way back. Justin Fields
Starting point is 00:35:31 now off the board. Was that part? Was that part? Part of why you were Gary Wilson? That was the gamble was, does Justin Fields make it back? And I would say in a home league, I bet he does. But Matthew Betts threw my plan into the furnace. So Al Borland on the clock, he has Jamar Chase, Bo Nix, Kyrin, Kittle, and Dak. He goes with Terry McLaurin, who's still unsigned, but, you know, obviously upside in the sixth round here behind Jameson Williams, puts Jason on the clock.
Starting point is 00:36:02 Jason and Mike still won quarterback deep. We saw, what is that, six go off the board in that run. You had some teams at the back of the draft that had not taken them in the first six or three rounds. So you saw a lot off the board now sitting at the quarterback position, McCarthy, Trevor Lawrence, Michael Penix, Bryce Young, Tua, Stafford, Gino, the starters left, Darnold. Jason, you're on the clock? Yeah, so it had some of the better quarterback slip down to me here. I would have taken a quarterback at this point. When I look at there's three teams on the turn, two of them have two quarterbacks.
Starting point is 00:36:38 There are at least two quarterbacks I like here, so I don't care about taking a quarterback here. Therefore, I'm going to go with a running back or a wide receiver. I was close. I wouldn't have taken him over Mike Evans, so I didn't take him last round, but I almost wanted to for that stack. Devante Smith is awesome. He's always been a guy I love. He's great for fantasy, and I've got Jalen Hertz, so I'm going to complete the stack and add him. Well, I'm completing a stack as well.
Starting point is 00:37:01 Mecca Igbuka is off the board. I'm taking him to go with Baker. I could have gone Evans the round before, but I went Metcalf and I come back with Egbuka. I feel better about that combo. It's funny. Your decision probably just flip-flop those exact picks. Like, you would have ended up. If I had-
Starting point is 00:37:16 If I had-I had... I would have had... I would have had Devante Smith and D.K. Metcalfe, and you would have had... You would have taken Devonte Smith in the fifth? No, I think he's saying he would have had Metcalfe and Ibukas. Yes. Oh, had I gone Evans. I got you. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:28 Okay. So, yeah, that's interesting with us going back to back. Mike took Garrett Wilson last round. Shaping up nicely. You have a quick turn here. Yeah, I wish Fields had dropped Fields or DAC. I didn't figure Dak would make it back, but Fields was my sneaky guy that I was hoping we'll get through.
Starting point is 00:37:48 He did not. I'm going to go with the running back who I'm growing more and more comfortable by the day because I know what you're going to say. Because I'm not hearing anything about the other players on the team. And I'm taking Isaiah Pacheco. Yeah. I, the Kansas City running back, the
Starting point is 00:38:06 fact that no one is talking, really talking about the other players. Oh, I guess the, we heard negativity about like, uh, for sure? No, no, there was some buzz about it, but Mitchell, Elijah Mitchell, they're saying, has not necessarily played himself onto the roster yet.
Starting point is 00:38:23 Cream Hunt is old, dealing with that stuff. The where Pacheco looked so bad when he came back and he came back probably too early from his injury and has had enough time that that I think that Pacheco is ready to go. So now I'm looking at quarterback.
Starting point is 00:38:45 Matthew Bess is trying to confuse me in the chat by saying it's Hunt's job to lose. And he said, oh, sorry, I met Pacheco. Betts, you're very confusing. I'm going to take an upside pick because it's my QB2. I'm going to take Trevor Lawrence. I like that pick a lot. All right, Trevor Lawrence.
Starting point is 00:38:59 with Liam Cohen this year? Let's say, I don't love Lawrence. Like, I have Gino Smith ranked above Trevor Lawrence, but he's my QB2, and I'm going for ceiling here. Trevor Lawrence is at over 4,000 yards, both of the seasons he's been healthy. And you've got Liam Cohen. So you definitely have, and you got players you love, right? Travis Hunter and Brian Thomas Jr. Maybe even Brinton Strange gets involved. All right, I'm back on the clock. I actually feel like I have a tough choice here. I was hoping Devante Adams would swing back around and I would just make that easy call. Dude, it was a good value.
Starting point is 00:39:29 At the 612, Devante? Yeah, he ended up going after Pacheco, Sutton, and then Mike went with Lawrence. I am staring down just like these high ADP question marks. Rashi Rice. How long is the suspension? Joe Mixon. Does he play week one or not at all? Both of those are outcomes.
Starting point is 00:39:51 The next highest ADP is somebody like Quinn-Shon Judkins, right? Or worthy, who's dependent on Rashi Rice. So, believe it or not, with a long wait ahead of me, I'm just going to take my guy. I'm going to take Tyler Warren. I'm going to... Okay, dokey. It's a seventh round Tyler Warren selection after Kelsey McBride Bowers and Kittal. I took him over Leporta.
Starting point is 00:40:10 I am going upside with Tyler Warren because I feel just, I feel really cozy with that, and I don't think he comes back to me. And sometimes when you're at the first or at the beginning or the end of the draft, you have to wait a really, really long time. Now, what is the I hate you message from Kyle? you took Tyler Warren. Oh, so you wanted Tyler Warren. So I was exactly right that you would have taken. Know your league. Yep, know your league. So this is where I'm one of the few teams left with one quarterback. Thankfully, it's Jalen Hertz. I'm fine doing that with a stud. When I look at the quarterbacks left, J.J. McCarthy, Michael Pennix, Bryce Young, Tua, Stafford, Gino, Donald. Like, I don't want any of them so much over the other. I mean, I certainly have an order to those guys, but I'm fine if the chips fall. There's still other talented players here. I could take David Montgomery. summary, I could take my tight end four, which I think I'm going to do right here, is T.J. Hawkinson, we talked about him getting off to a hawk start. And, you know, when you're talking about the seventh round. Somehow that one was not even one of your misses. That one was a
Starting point is 00:41:13 hit. Yeah. Yeah. They're all hits, Andy. They're all hits. I think you literally said brick after one of them. Well, okay. Well, you know, and then you had to bank another one in. I'm just saying there's not a lot of switches. The bank was open. When you hit a brick, you hit something. They are all hits, Mike, thank you. All right, we'll take a break. I didn't say air ball. Jason goes with Hawkinson, I said airball in my head.
Starting point is 00:41:36 All right, Hawkinson at 704. We'll take a break and come back with the rest of this. Super Draft. Okay, after Hawkinson in the seventh round here, Montgomery Pickensworthy, Adunzei Flowers, DeAndre Swift, Waddle Olave. The interesting names here, Swift, Aaron Jones, and Tony Pollard. All three of them, very interesting names this late in the draft. All three of them starters, as of now, you know, there is a high value in targets to the running back position.
Starting point is 00:42:16 And Swift, Aaron Jones, and then Pollard is going to have all the work to start the year. Swift was one of the, sorry, the Bears, they were one of the places I thought that Brian Robinson could have gone and really thrown an issue into the backfield of like, if Brian Robinson goes to the Bears, what does that room look like where, you mean, you can say, hey, he's going to take some snaps from Christian McCaffrey. McCaffrey's still the clear cut number one. So the fact that that that problem has gone away,
Starting point is 00:42:51 at least a potential problem. Swift still stays a good value in the seven. Jason has Drake London, Mike Evans, Devante Smith at wide receiver, Buck Irving and RJ Harvey as is starting two running backs. Jalen Hertz, T.J. Hawkinson in the onesies, or I guess not the onesies. The one and twosys. The ones and twosys. So you're back on the clock, Jay. Yeah, so I was really hoping Mix and Wood fall. It's so funny. In real drafts right now, we're seeing Mix and fall, you know, through the basement, you know, into the earth.
Starting point is 00:43:27 So I didn't know if you'd get back to me. I would have taken him as my running back three. I need a running back three, but I don't like the rest of the guys there. So I'll pull the trigger on a quarterback. And even though I think there are safer, maybe even higher upside combinations, like Gino Smith to me is very safe. He's not going anywhere. He's thrown for 30 touchdowns before.
Starting point is 00:43:47 I want the double stack. I want, I love. in a super flex league when you can do a double stack. So I'm going to get Michael Pinnock's. All right. And I hope he takes that leap forward. Pinnix and Drake London with Jalen Hertz and Devante Smith. You can have massive outpourings of points when the wide receivers go off.
Starting point is 00:44:04 I'll take Rashi Rice here in the late eighth round. It's worth the rest to me. Yeah, I definitely would have taken him. Would you? Yeah. I mean, my starters. That's my wide receiver four. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:14 They've kind of been figured out. And so Rashi Rice is worth the gamble. It's not like Rashi Rice won't play football. he may not play at the beginning he may not play at the end but he will be playing a bunch of football and he's going to be productive so I'll take Rashi Rice here
Starting point is 00:44:28 in the eighth round at the value so the going with Trevor Lawrence I can say I'm okay with the decision but what played out with only two quarterbacks going after that I would have much rather gone George Pickens there
Starting point is 00:44:46 but again this the is why you mock yeah you're doing the mocks and it's the hardest thing to, for sure, no, is like, when will that, you know, the sprinkling? The runs are done, but when those couple sprinkling is the quarterbacks. So, Superflex, you do need a third. Let me just take a little peek. Bryce is there, Tua, Stafford, Gino.
Starting point is 00:45:09 Not overly excited. I only have two running backs at this point. The starter tier has kind of thinned out. has almost fully thinned out except for the, you know, like, Jacksonville, who is the starter? Javante is a starter. Javante, dude.
Starting point is 00:45:27 You're a guy, man. Be a coward. My guy? You love Javonsi. What are you doing? Javonte Williams. Don't you do this to me? Mike Wright is Javonte Williams' biggest fan.
Starting point is 00:45:37 How dare you? Looking at the running backs, like, Charbs or Jordan Mason, they're very appealing right here. Looking at the tight-end position, which I have not looked at the whole draft. Leporta. Ooh, Leporta is very interesting right here. Leporta and David Nogoku.
Starting point is 00:45:57 Trying to look at the turn. Julia only has two running backs, so maybe I will go that direction. I'm going to take Charbs. All right, Zach Charbony off the board to Mike in the eighth round. So Pacheco, Lawrence, Charbs, the last three picks.
Starting point is 00:46:13 Echler off the board at 812. I approve that. pick. Stefan Diggs at 901. I like that pick as well. There is value at wide receiver right now on the board. There really is. There's quite a bit of it.
Starting point is 00:46:27 So, you know. I think real quick to speak to the Echler thing while you look at your guys' picks, Echler is a name that you have to highlight. I was hoping he came back. Yeah, yeah. Because his ADP. I think everyone in the draft was hoping. Someone's going to take him way above the ADP because it doesn't make sense for, you
Starting point is 00:46:46 know, the ADP can't catch up in time. Right. And so you don't want to forget about him and have him too low in your reign. If you've got the UDK, you can actually highlight players where on your sheet, it'll be like, oh, I know they're lower, but I want to target them. All right, Mike, you get to pull the trigger here, ninth round pick, four picks left. You are still in a position to grab a tight end. I'm wondering if that's where you're going to go.
Starting point is 00:47:10 You've got two quarterbacks, three wide, three running backs. what the player I really, really want to take is Josh Downs but the hamstring is concerning at this point but this late in the draft
Starting point is 00:47:26 so I mean as my wide receiver four taking a look at who's taking tight ends I'm just going to do it anyways I'm going to take Josh Downs he can he can recover on my bench I'm taking Jordan Mason
Starting point is 00:47:38 Jordan Mason my third running back off the board I was hoping he'd slipped through he did he'll pair with A. Chan and James Cook. Jason back on the clock has his second quarterback of Michael Pinnock's, the double stack, has Hawkinson. You're free to roam, Jason. Free to go wherever I want, but with only Bucky Irving and R.J. Harvey, I do feel a little bit obligated with three good wide receivers to go running back here. Would you have gone Jordan Mason? He was in
Starting point is 00:48:02 consideration. I don't know that I would have gone. I mean, I want to know if I should go crazy, which to me is Quinchon Junkins. There's a chance that he plays the vast majority of the or doesn't get suspended. There's a chance he misses a ton of the season. You're guys there, Jay. Are you talking about? Giovante Williams is there. Jason's guy. Don't put that on me. We all know that
Starting point is 00:48:25 Jason Moore is synonymous with I am actually going to take a guy who is. I am yes. Sante. Yeah, that makes sense. I'm going to take a guy who might even be more disgusting to you, Mike. And it is one of my guys in the sense that I know you to disagree. You guys do not have
Starting point is 00:48:41 Travis E.T.N. as the the primary first running back to have from the Jacksonville Jaguars. I definitely do still. Okay, you do. But Jacksonville doesn't. TBD. Okay, TBD. I do think Travis E.C.
Starting point is 00:48:55 T.B.J.A.C.T.N. will be their starter. He will definitely be their pass catching back. That will not be Tank Bigsby. I know he caught a screen pass. Oh, that must have infuriated you. No, I... When he caught that ball, you must have hated it so much. You must be like...
Starting point is 00:49:10 It's unfair because I love Tank Bigsby. No, no, it doesn't sound like it. Giovante, you're thinking of Giovante. I think you guys believe that Travis E.TN. Oh, you went off the board? Yeah, sorry. Bill Kroski, 9-09, sorry. Yeah, I think you guys have the, you know, good coaching fallacy where you believe tank should be the guy.
Starting point is 00:49:35 And so you refuse to believe that it will be the guy they've used in the passing game for years. Who's they? Trevor Lawrence, the Jacksonville Jaguars. Well, he was still involved in the passing game. He was very inefficient on the ground. I just mean that the day has changed. The they is now Lee and Coaching staff has changed, yeah. So TBD.
Starting point is 00:49:56 39 for 254 last year. I do think that the Jacksonville running backs, while disgusting right now, will be a value to someone. Yeah, I agree with that. It's just, I don't think we believe Tank Biggsie should be given the job. I think we believe that he's going to score the most fancy points of a group of middy backs that maybe none of them are startable and exciting. Judkins, Ridley, Samuel, Leporto finally goes.
Starting point is 00:50:20 Bill, Bill, Bill, Bill, Bill, Bill, and 909. Bill Crosky. Well, he could play the violin on a piano. Okay. I think he's with a piano. No, he does it on a piano. Jacobi Myers-Cuper Cup off the board at 9-12, J.K. Dobbins, Najoku, Tracy. We got some more quarterbacks off the board.
Starting point is 00:50:41 Tua, the second quarterback off the board for the Kyler manager. Darnold, the second quarterback off the board for the golf manager. And then Giovante Williams, Juan Jennings, Bryce Young. It turns out, we were saying all that stuff about Giovante, how much Mike liked him, how much Jason liked him. Turns out it's Papa John.
Starting point is 00:51:02 Oh, it was Papa Josh. Papa Josh likes him the most. Okay. Bryce Young off the board, Khalil Shakir off the board. Jason, you're back. You have a chance to, you know, go Travis E.N. Tink, Biggsby combo. I could, in fact, do that.
Starting point is 00:51:18 There's a lot of players here that I still like. There's wide receivers with upside like Jaden Reed, Jaden Higgins, any of the Jadens. At running back, since E.N. is not a guarantee. Harvey is not a guarantee. I'm going to take one more running back. I'm going to take another shot at a high upside guy, a player that I adore. I think he is an amazing player, whether he will get the opportunity or not for a bad offense. It's usually a bad bet.
Starting point is 00:51:47 That's why he's in the 10th round here. Cam Scadaboo. Rookie for the Giants. Yeah, he played last night. That was great to see him out there. I am depressed. A lot of players I wanted. They all went.
Starting point is 00:52:01 Calvin Ridley, Debo, Samuel, Jacobi Myers, all great values at this stage in the draft. Killow Shakir. I don't know why he's going so late. That's probably a wild one. but let me see if this guy's still around that's how nope he's not oh man who are you wondering um i was wondering about kean coleman i must have missed him i probably read his name and literally missed him going in every he ended up going in every live draft a player a player gets drafted a second time it always happens if you've ever done a live one i do not see keon coleman anywhere
Starting point is 00:52:36 yeah you can draft keon coleman you may still that's why you don't see him You're searching for him under the running back tab or something? Yeah, that's what I was doing. That's what I was doing. I'm going to take Keon Coleman. The cue is the paper icon. Okay. Oh, okay. No, no, perfect.
Starting point is 00:52:51 Listen up, everybody. I don't know if you can bounce back to my camera for a second. I don't. Okay, well, go ahead. The draft, if you are using Sleeper on your phone, it says draft. Yeah. Oh, I don't know. I don't need this.
Starting point is 00:53:05 I'm an idiot. I'm the idiot. I'm the idiot. Don't forget that part. It says draft. On the desktop, it's a plus. It says draft. Give me the spotlight. Give me the spotlight.
Starting point is 00:53:15 Because I know. Sleeper. Sleeper. We love you guys. We've worked with you forever. Unweb. Just change that plus to a draft button. You got the button already.
Starting point is 00:53:24 Oh, so you agree. You're in full agreement. It should say draft. Yeah. Just make it easy. Because the Q, the Q button does have a plus on it. There's double plus. We don't need a double plus.
Starting point is 00:53:34 I like that Andy is straw manning over here to make us forget that he tried to search for Keon Coleman and the running backs. Oh, he's taken. Look, very, very positive Kiann Coleman news. Not something that I'm, we're so close to our League of Record draft. There's stuff I almost don't want to say now. Oh, my God. I hate that.
Starting point is 00:53:52 Like, obviously I say it. But it's like we're so close to it. But you hate to say it. And this is one of the things. Keown Coleman, if you listen to the players at that organization, they basically, I mean, I think one of them literally said his DNA changed. Like, he got it like modified. Like he's a different human.
Starting point is 00:54:10 Like he got the ooze? Like something, you got mutated? Like there's Keon Coleman last year, busted. Uh-huh. Then there's Keonankeleman this off-season. What animal. At every meeting, at every practice, all over everything, like the dude. So like, and Jason's been vocal about that's the guy you take the shot on.
Starting point is 00:54:26 But Keon Coleman, I think is very interesting. Sure. All right. I am up. I am looking at my opponent who is on the turn. Uh, Julia does not have a tight end. while there's a couple who I am okay with I will not take the chance on losing Tucker Craft
Starting point is 00:54:45 Tucker Kraft off the board you did pass on the Porta a couple times and came back with Kraft not bad Loveland Colston Loveland off the board now at the last pick of the 10th round Addison Addison is gone
Starting point is 00:54:59 Mike you're back I am back Colston Loveland would have been the pick but I really really believe in Tucker Craft is a top five maybe even a little bit more upside I want to leave with a third quarterback to have on my bench and if I don't go here I will not get a starter for that so we got Stafford
Starting point is 00:55:24 you got Gino Rogers those are the if I'm looking right those are the three that you can feel confident what I'm saying you can feel confident they will start the year unless injury where it's like Daniel Jones can get benched at some point Russ. You're going to make my pitch for me, Mike, because I was going to
Starting point is 00:55:44 take a third quarterback and so whoever... I'm going to get, I'm going to take the guy who has a fully functional vertebrae and spine and back, so I'm going to go with Gino. Yeah, I'm actually, I don't care about vertebrae. Let me see if I can find the right button to click. Yeah, Matthew
Starting point is 00:56:00 Stafford on the roster, Jason. You are back on the clock. We are in lockstep here. The third quarterback in a super flex league is pretty valuable. There won't be a waiver wire. There will be by weeks. There will be injuries. So you want to take some. And I agree with you guys
Starting point is 00:56:16 in the order you would have gone. I would have gone Geno Smith, Matthew Stafford, followed by Aaron Rogers. So since I've only got Michael Pennix, I want a third quarterback on the roster. All right. We are nearing the end of the Superflex. I don't know how you guys feel about your teams right now. I've got
Starting point is 00:56:32 A. Chan, Cook, and Mason at running back. Metcalfe, Egbuka, Rice and Coleman at my wide receiver spots, Stafford, Mayfield, and Daniels with Tyler Warren as my tight end. I feel okay about this. You know, Mayfield was a little bit of a gamble in the third, and I look at, you know, what I've been just as comfortable taking Bucky there and then coming back with a Drake May, probably not as comfortable, no. But, oh, I guess I probably would not have gotten any of that run. Yeah, I preceded that run. So
Starting point is 00:57:09 Herbert, Mahomes, Murray, Gough, and Mayall went and I would not have got them. So I would have had to turn to Caleb or DAC. Yeah, I'm cool. Yeah, no, I think you did it right. I'm pretty happy with how my team is so good at this. Is turning out as well. Bucky Irving, RJ Harvey, ETN, and Scataboot running back, London, Evans, Devante Smith with Jalen Hertz, Pennix, and Aaron Rogers with Hawkinson at the onesie. I'm going to look at the wide receiver positions.
Starting point is 00:57:37 It's only got three. Yeah, the last handful of guys off the board. Just some highlights here. Braylon Allen went off the board in the 11th round. We saw Jaden Higgins go. Daniel Jones did go. So did Anthony Richardson. And then Evan Ingram would have been my final pick if he had made it back through.
Starting point is 00:57:53 I would have been willing to take a second side in if Ingram, the PPR guy. Just in case because of the baili trade. Yeah, exactly. So just take the shot on him. But he just went. So Jason, final pick. Yeah, I'm going to take Cedric Tillman with Joe Flacko there. We saw Tillman do some special things in his sophomore year in a short stretch,
Starting point is 00:58:11 and then he had the concussion. But he appears locked in to me as a starter for the Browns. I'll take Godwin. I'll take Godwin with the final pick. I would have taken Godwin if I wasn't the Evans manager. I didn't want to deal with both of that. So, yeah, that makes sense. I am the Bucca manager, and I did want to deal with it.
Starting point is 00:58:27 Okay. With my last pick, I'm going to go, I'm going to take a running back. ADP-wise, it's Noggi, Ramandre, Spears, Trey Benson. I'll throw a name out for you. Oh, please. Nick Chub. Nick Chub is who I actually am going to draft.
Starting point is 00:58:44 Oh, okay. You were setting up to Nick Chubb, my bad. I was letting people know 80P-wise who is there. And Nick Chubb feels like a pretty boring floor pick. But what if, what if Joe Mixon is that hurt? It's definitely possible. I was just looking at this. Like if I, if I go to the deucer camp, they just show up right there in the three boxes.
Starting point is 00:59:06 Just like us. Look at that. Wow. Good looking. It's like we put in it. Not as good looking. Good looking. I do, I do appreciate that Jeremy placed his on the top.
Starting point is 00:59:18 Hmm. Yes. Oh, of course. I'm sure that was intentional. All right. You can weigh in on all of our mistakes in the YouTube comments or. Oh, the teams. On the Twitter.
Starting point is 00:59:28 Read the teams. Well, yeah, we went. Did you not go through? three years? I didn't. Why don't you go ahead? So my team at quarterback, I got Lamar, Trevor Lawrence, and Gino. Got Gino in the 11th. I think that's fabulous. My wide receivers are A.J. Brown, Marv,
Starting point is 00:59:42 Garrett Wilson, and Josh Downs. I like that a lot. Johnny Taylor, Pacheco, Charbonnet, and Nick Chub, and then Tucker Kraft is my tight end. Matt Caffick, Buka, Rice, Coleman, and Godwin at wide out. A. Chan, Cook, and Mason, a little thin at running back.
Starting point is 00:59:58 Daniels, Mayfield, Stafford, at quarterback in a Super Flex and Tyler Warren's my tight end. Jalen Hertz, Michael Pennix, Aaron Rogers, at quarterback, Drake London, Mike Evans, Devante Smith, and Cedric Tillman at wide receiver, a running back. I've got Bucky Irving,
Starting point is 01:00:14 R.J. Harvey, Travis E.N. and Cam Scataboo with Hawkinson at tight-in. What was that name again? Hawkinson. Hawkinson. What? What? What am I saying? What do you have?
