1:36So subscribe, grab 16 rounds, and let's roll with this video, okay?
1:39I do want to talk about some latest news and notes here.
1:43First news is, if you're new to the channel, I just moved down to South Florida.
1:47This is the backyard. I'm trying to give you guys amazing scenic views while I'm recording content to make it a little more interactive.
1:54So if you're new to the channel, subscribe for these amazing views if you don't like fantasy football.
1:59If you like scenic stuff, there you go. So I want to talk a little bit about the news here.
2:05A couple things. There's been a ton of news about injuries.
2:08Nothing catastrophic, thank God. But we've got Devontae Smith, who I'm not sold on, dealing with a hamstring injury.
2:13Listen, this guy is a really thin player. He's not a true alpha dog one.
2:18He's a thin guy. He's not designed to be a one.
2:21And he's already dealing with injuries, okay? That's one.
2:23We got Jeremiah Love, I told you I'd talk about, a guy that I'm high on.
2:28And in the first preseason game, he was dealing with a high ankle sprain.
2:32He's got a high ankle sprain injury. Some people say it'll linger and there's a chance he could miss week one.
2:38I don't think so. And even if he does, this is what we talk about, right?
2:42When you're drafting, you got to have a backup plan for a backup plan for a backup plan.
2:48Always back yourself up so that you're not left with, oh, this guy's injured, then I'm worried, right?
2:53You never have to worry. That's why if you get 16 rounds, you never have to worry because you basically cover yourself backup plan for a backup plan.
3:01So this Jeremiah Love news, a little concerning, but he's going to be fine.
3:05High ankles sprain. He's young. He'll shake it off.
3:07I just hope it doesn't linger throughout the entire season.
3:10And then you're going to be, you know, dealing with that.
3:13So very unfortunate there. We got, I think we've got Puka Nakua dealing with some sort of abdominal stuff.
3:19Puka has kind of shown injuries in the past, a little bit concerning there.
3:22We got Jordan Tyson. I think he's got a hamstring thing going here.
3:26And the big one, which I, I made a joke about, I wasn't even joking.
3:30I did a video kind of went viral, not viral, viral.
3:34I got like 40, 50,000 views on Instagram, quite a bit.
3:37That's pretty normal for my Instagram now. And, you know, did really well on, on, uh, other platforms like TikTok and also shorts here.
3:44That's why you guys turn on the bell. Cause I'm breaking news.
3:47But CMC is dealing with tightness. And here's the thing, man, like this guy's over 30 and he's not on the field.
3:53It's been weeks. He's been dealing with tightness. Like dude, like massage that out and get back on the field.
3:59That's, that's a BS thing, man. At this late in the game, you know, getting close to the season, you should be on the field practicing.
4:06And some people are not concerned. I'm concerned because three out of the last six years he's busted.
4:11So that's a big concern. If you are considering CMC already hinting, showing you red flags that this guy.
4:17Potentially get hurt. So I wanted to cover that again.
4:20There's other small injuries here and there, but those are kind of the, some of the big ones.
4:25Jeremiah love, obviously, and CMC two big names, uh, dealing with some stuff.
4:28I heard Josh Jacobs also dealing with a groin more concerned, more concerned with me with Josh Jacobs is literally the fact
4:35that this guy has some off field issues lingering.
4:37Uh, same with Puka possible suspension for that bite thing, the alleged bite or whatever he did.
4:42Um, you know, Jacobs, Puka, those guys are dealing with some potential off field suspensions, off field issues that could lead to suspension.
4:49So be aware of that as well. I have got no stock in Puka, no stock in Jacobs.
4:54Um, I think Puka has got a ton of sin.
4:57If you draft them, just be aware of that.
4:59That's something. Some places you just got to draft and be like, Hey, I like this player.
5:04I like the ceiling, but I I'm okay with the risk.
5:07If you're okay with the risk, go for it.
5:10But I don't like to take that type of risk.
5:13Okay. So that's pretty much it for the news here.
5:15Again, subscribe, thumbs up, grab 16 rounds. Let's dive into, uh, the players here, some sleepers.
5:20Okay. The first sleeper that I absolutely love. And he got, he scored a touchdown in preseason, which is a telling tale
5:26that there is some upside here is Marvin Harrison Jr.
5:29Listen, this guy is currently outside the top 30.
5:32Okay. Um, this is the thing, right? He's like wide receiver, what?
5:3535, something like that, which is crazy. We got Michael Wilson, his counterpart, wide receiver 41.
5:40They're outside of the top 35. And listen, some, one of these guys is going to perform.
5:44I think both these guys, but I think Marvin Harrison gets the edge.
5:48Let me tell you why. Okay. Marvin Harrison Jr.
5:51Was a first round pick. All right. Had a decent rookie season.
5:54Only played 12 games last year. All right. Here's the deal.
5:57Mike Wilson. Everyone's all high on Mike Wilson. Mike Wilson was a third round pick.
6:01Look at this. This was 2023 stats. Okay. 565 yards, three touchdowns, 2024, 548 yards, four touchdowns.
6:06So Mike Wilson is just not that good. Last year, finally cracked a thousand yards, thousand six yards, barely and seven touchdowns.
6:13But like everybody's so high on Mike Wilson. I'm like, dude, Marvin Harrison's the alpha dog in that offense.
6:18All right. This is why I'm fading Trey McBride early.
6:21Why do that? When I can get myself Marvin Harrison Jr.
6:24Much later outside, outside around five. Okay. I like Marvin Harrison Jr.
6:27As a sleeper. You're getting a wide receiver one, everybody, a wide receiver one super late.
6:32This is what I'm talking about. It's all about value and wide receivers later.
6:36You don't have to spend a first round pick.
6:38Now, some people are saying, well, I can go zero RB and get wide receivers early and get running backs later.
6:44Dude, there's a major fall off after David Montgomery.
6:47After around five, it's like super questionable. And that being said, I think a lot of sleepers, if you get 60 rounds, I'll talk about the sleepers.
6:55Guys like Mike Washington, Kalen Black. There's other rookie sleepers that could go off predicated on injury, but you're not securing that ace running back early.
7:02You need to do that. Right. Don't fade the running back early.
7:05And I'm doing a lot of best ball. If you've not subscribed to underdog, use code line, do it now.
7:11Every night at nine, I'm watching these running backs completely come off the board super early.
7:16And that's one thing you got to take note of.
7:19There won't be many running backs later. Okay. So very, very important.
7:22So Marvin Harrison Jr. And get for value later.
7:25Michael Wilson, I just proved to you, not that good.
7:27He was a third round pick. When he's looking at talent, Marvin Harrison is superior.
7:32He should finally get going. This year. Okay. Number two here.
7:35Here's a major sleeper value for you guys. It could be the wide receiver one, his team.
7:40We saw some flashes in preseason. He was a second round pick last year for the Raiders is Jack Besch back, whatever you want to call him.
7:47Wide receiver 85. Okay. You can get this guy literally the later rounds.
7:51Nobody's drafting him. I know there's a lot of uncertainty.
7:54I think Trey Tucker is an amazing value. These guys are going to be on the field a lot.
7:59And I mean a lot. And they finally got quarterbacks.
8:02I think cousins is super viable. I think Mendoza could be amazing.
8:05Right? So they finally have quarterbacks. They're going to use utilize them.
8:09Now I heard Jack Beck has had young Cooper cup comparisons.
8:12Like, dude, I'm all over the stash. Like, why wouldn't you stash?
8:15Jack Beck on your roster who could be the wide receiver one on his team.
8:20I say, go for it, man. Go for it.
8:22Like, this is a big time sleeper on a Raiders team.
8:25That's only going to get better. Again, they've improved their O-line.
8:29They added Mike Washington. So they got solid running backs that are going to definitely keep the defenses distracted, open things up.
8:35Right? Brock Bowers, I think is overpriced. I think Jack Beck, they need a receiver to step up.
8:40And he is the most physically talented one that could.
8:43Thornton could do it as well, but he's just not given the opportunity.
8:46I think Beck has stepped up in training camp.
8:49It could be the guy. Right? So that's another sleeper for you.
8:52Right? Next one. I'm telling you, the value is insane.
8:55And I've talked about him on a ton of videos.
8:58I know a lot of people are just subscribing and joining the channel now.
9:02But this guy's insane value. Like, he is a running back one.
9:05And he's sitting as running back 26. Round 4, 5, 6 ADP could fall.
9:09And before I tell you who it is, look who's coming off ahead of him.
9:14Travion Henderson, who's in a committee. We know they're not letting go of Stevens.
9:18And I saw Stevens have a catch in training camp over the shoulder in the end zone.
9:23Like, the guy is not going away. He's going to be a pass.
9:26The Patriots just don't like running a workhorse running back.
9:29So there's Hendo ahead of him, Henderson, who I think, again, is going to be in a committee.
9:34You've got DeAndre Swift. Henderson's by the way, running back 24.
9:37The guy I'm talking about is running back 26.
9:40DeAndre Swift sucks. He's running back 20. Travis Etienne, who, again, we had Walter Football on the show.
9:45And he made a good point. He's like, Etienne lost his job to Bigsby.
9:49Okay? Like, on the Jags. Like, I don't trust a guy who lost his job to Tank Bigsby.
9:54And he's going to be in a committee with Kamara this year.
9:58He's running back 18. So the guy I'm talking about here, I know it's a big buildup, is Jadarian Price.
10:03First-round pick. Amazing talent. No committee. They got Helani, who I just watched him in preseason.
10:08Looked okay. He didn't look that good. And, you know, Jadarian Price is going to crush it.
10:13I'm telling you guys right now. All right? He had some soreness.
10:16Came back. He's ready to go. He's healthy. You know, thank God.
10:19Knock on wood. Whatever you want to say. And I'm excited about Jadarian Price.
10:23First-round pick, who was in the shadow of Jeremiah Love in college.
10:27Gets to run free. And I just love it.
10:29And Chad Burnett, I don't think he's going to come back healthy for a long time.
10:34Draft Jadarian Price. You're getting an RB1 for an amazing value.
10:37Pack him in as part of your RB, robust RB core, which again, I lay out in 16 rounds.
10:42So Jadarian Price. Amazing, amazing sleeper value draft. Okay?
10:45Number four here. Got a quarterback here for you.
10:48And he came alive last year. His Tyler Shuff.
10:50S-H-O-U-G-F as in rough, as in tough. You just simply swap out the R-O-U-G-H and put an S-H as Shough.
10:56I don't know what idiots call him Shuck. There's no C.
10:59There's no U-C-K. It makes no sense. So here's why I like Tyler Shuck.
11:03Okay? Shuff. Five touchdowns in the last four games passing.
11:06He had three touchdowns rushing on the season. So he can get it done on the ground as well.
11:1121 fantasy points. The last three out of his last five games playing last year.
11:15And he slated as the starter. They drafted Jeremiah Wright, offensive guard in round four.
11:20So they made slight improvements on their offensive line.
11:22They got Jordan Tyson. If healthy, could be an amazing offensive weapon that contributes to Tyler Shuff having a better season.
11:28Listen, I love it. I'm looking at everything. He's QB 20 right now.
11:32Guys, this is amazing value for a guy who's got an amazing floor.
11:36I think this guy finishes top 10 with ease if he continues on those 20, 22, 23 points per game, which is
11:42very viable when the situation has improved around him and he's slated going in mentally as a starter.
11:47Whereas last year, he wasn't fully integrated. That offense was still trying to figure things out his rookie year.
11:52Now he's set. He's settled in. Foundation set. So I'm looking for Tyler Shuff to be an amazing guy.
11:58Don't draft him as your main quarterback. Get him as a backup or a second quarterback in a two quarterback league.
12:04I think you'll be very pleasantly surprised with how consistent he's going to remain this year as your quarterback.
12:09I think a guaranteed 18 points floor every single week.
12:12That's the bottom every week. And he's going to continue to trend upwards every single week.
12:17And he's got that, like I said, he's got a little bit of rushing upside to him as well.
12:22Okay. Tyler Shuff. The last one before I get into it, guys, this is a wide receiver that you need to draft.
12:28I'm going to sell you on them, convince you on them.
12:31But again, these are my convictions. Up to you guys inside.
12:35Make sure you guys do draft with me every night.
12:37Underdog, go create an account. Use code line 9 PM.
12:40Turn on the notifications here. Swipe hype the video and grab 16 rounds.
12:44Do not draft those 16 rounds. I keep emphasizing how much of a iron cloud roster I'm handing you on a silver platter.
12:50Make sure you guys grab it below linked at use code deal.
12:54Okay. Last one here. Here's a deal, right? Everyone's saying Parker Washington has taken the wide receiver one spot.
12:59Before you guys jump the, you know, jump the gun here.
13:02Brian Thomas Jr. is the guy I'm talking about as a sleeper.
13:06Wide receiver 33. Parker Washington slated as wide receiver 30 right now on the rankings.
13:10You get these guys after around, you know, round six, five, six, whatever it is, right?
13:15Now, Parker Washington, let me give you guys some context.
13:17Everybody's so excited about him. Let me give you his stats.
13:21Now you guys tell me if he's worth the draft.
13:23Okay. He was a sixth round pick. I'll move my camera here.
13:27Parker Washington, Parker Washington was a sixth round pick guys, a sixth round pick.
13:31Brian Thomas Jr. was a first round pick. If you compare Brian Thomas Jr.'s rookie numbers, 1,282 yards, 10 touchdowns, 807 receptions.
13:37I know he had a fall off last year.
13:40He dropped from 1,282 to 7 0 7, but he didn't play the full season.
13:44But hear me out here. 1,282 yards, 10 touchdowns in Brian Thomas' rookie season, completely in line with how good he was
13:50right at a college and his draft capital. And then you look at Parker Washington, two touchdowns, 132 yards receiving.
13:56That's who you're talking about. Okay. That's 2023, 132 yards, two touchdowns.
13:592024 Parker Washington didn't get much better. 390 yards, three touchdowns, 32 receptions.
14:032024 finally 847 yards, five touchdowns. Finally had a decent year, but Parker Washington is not a good player compared to Brian, Brian Thomas Jr.
14:10Brian Thomas Jr. is the alpha. Now, mind you, sometimes players can step it up in the offense.
14:15If they're targeted a lot, they can do well, yada, yada.
14:18But I'm still believing that Brian Thomas is the guy.
14:21He's still got to play for that contract. He was still drafted in the first round.
14:26I don't think, you know, the Jaguars just completely give up on Brian Thomas, right?
14:30Remember, I want to give you guys some context before I go.
14:33His rookie year, I said, draft Brian Thomas. Everybody crushed it with him, right?
14:37He was a ninth round pick. Counselor Nation won, right?
14:40Him and Lad McConkie. Last year, I told you to fade those guys.
14:44Their ADP was too high. Now they're back trending upwards and they're back at a better value.
14:49I think Brian Thomas Jr. is a great value.
14:51Don't make him your wide receiver one. Make sure you guys always have multiple receivers, guys that have upside high on the
14:58depth chart, which I lay on 16 rounds. Make him a part of that.
15:02I personally don't have any stock in him simply because I drafted in April.
15:06He was off the board. I ended up drafting other players.
15:09So I don't, you know, practice what you preach.
15:11So what they say, right? Or do what you say.
15:14In this case, I don't have stock. So again, he is a bit of a risky pick.
15:19I'm not going to say he's not. All I'm saying, I think the talent is good.
15:23I think the value is good. I don't believe in Parker Washington.
15:27You know, that's, that's my conviction. It's up to you guys to make a decision.
15:31All right. That's all I got for you guys here today.
15:34Some sleepers for you. Make sure you guys subscribe.
15:37Walter football is coming back in a day or two.
15:40He's coming back twice a week. We'll try to get bald guy on as well.
15:44Tim, the bald guy. And we'll keep the content rolling for you guys.
15:48Grab 16 rounds, hit the thumbs up on your way out.
15:51Enjoy the view and have a great day and an amazing week draft season and session.
15:55See you at nine o'clock tonight.
