Player analysis
Player insights
Alec Pierce
NegativeRole0:27
Alec Pierce does not pass the eye test in terms of having a valuable fantasy role despite looking cool while playing.
Insight pageNegativeInjury0:27
Alec Pierce suffered an off-season ankle injury and does not appear to be ready for training camp, which is a significant concern for his fantasy outlook.
Insight pageNegativeInjury0:54
Pierce's foot injury is concerning; Mattek estimates he should drop about 10 spots and go in the 90s rather than his current ADP.
Insight pageAmon-Ra St. Brown
PositiveValue0:42
Amon-Ra St. Brown is a strong value pick at the 1-2 turn, though taking him sometimes feels like eating your vegetables; he is very good for fantasy.
Insight pageBraelon Allen
PositiveRole0:57
Allen is 250 pounds, an absurd size for an NFL running back, which could allow him to play a power role against smaller defensive packages.
Insight pageBrock Bowers
PositiveRole0:29
Brock Bowers' rookie role is not expected to return; reporting suggests he will be in a Slayton-Bateman type role with approximately 22% target share and leading all wide receivers in average depth of target.
Insight pageBucky Irving
PositiveValue0:28
Bucky Irving is a pretty strong fantasy football pick at pick 58 in the tail end of the fifth round, with proven track record.
Insight pageCJ Daniels
NegativeValue0:01
Mattek would probably draft Kanata Mumfeld instead of CJ Daniels as a round 20 flyer, suggesting he prefers Mumfeld's upside.
Insight pageD'Andre Swift
PositiveValue0:50
The author has very little exposure to DeAndre Swift and continues to avoid drafting him.
Insight pageNegativeValue0:52
Mattek's ranking hasn't lined up well with Swift's ADP in the 60s; he was behind on him early and now other running backs like Tootin and Bucky Irving have gotten more expensive, making Swift less appealing at his current price.
Insight pageDalton Schultz
PositiveValue0:01
Mattek took Dalton Schultz in both an FFPC league and real money, indicating confidence in his value at that draft position.
Insight pageDavante Adams
PositiveValue0:50
Devante Adams was selected in a draft, with the author having very little exposure to him compared to the market.
Insight pageDe'Von Achane
PositiveValue0:44
Devin Achane fell to pick 17 after his ADP of 15, providing a slight ADP value, though the author is not super enthusiastic about the pick.
Insight pagePositiveProjection0:48
If Devin Achane were on the 49ers in place of Christian McCaffrey, he would be drafted after Gibbs and Bijan due to his small stature and injury history, likely around 1.3.
Insight pageDeebo Samuel
PositiveUsage0:28
Debo Samuel was selected in a draft, indicating he remains a relevant fantasy option.
Insight pageDerrick Henry
NegativeValue0:56
Like Devontae Adams, Henry faces age-related risk at 33-34 years old, with declining production becoming more possible year-over-year.
Insight pageGabriel Davis
PositiveProjection0:37
Gabe Davis appears in the statistical comparison group for wide receivers with similar career profiles to Parker Washington in their first four seasons.
Insight pageHunter Henry
PositiveValue0:01
Mattek took Hunter Henry as a reliable tight end option when he needed an 'adult' at the position, preferring him over other available options.
Insight pageJames Conner
NegativeDepth Chart0:30
James Conner has a pretty high chance of being traded or released because the Cardinals coaching staff did not mention him when discussing backfield roles, instead mentioning Algier and Jeremiah Love having the hot hand.
Insight pageNegativeDepth Chart0:30
James Conner is likely to be traded, with the Detroit Lions (reuniting with offensive coordinator Drew Petsig) and Dallas Cowboys being obvious landing spots.
Insight pageJaylen Waddle
NegativeDepth Chart0:47
Jalen Waddle signed a three-year contract extension with the Dolphins, but it is unfortunate that the next four years of his career will likely not be spent on a super competitive team.
Insight pageJonathon Brooks
PositiveProjection0:57
Brooks' ADP is only going in one direction—up; his draft stock is rising and not declining.
Insight pageJosh Downs
PositiveBreakout0:56
Alec Pierce's injury is good for Downs; he benefits from the target opportunity vacated by Pierce's injury.
Insight pageKaytron Allen
PositiveBreakout0:01
After one blue game versus the Giants where he looked excellent, Mattek took Katron Allen, expressing confidence in his performance.
Insight pageKyren Williams
PositiveValue0:45
Kyron Williams was selected as a consolation pick after Malik Neighbors was taken.
Insight pagePositiveRole0:51
Mattek drafted Kyron Williams as part of his core team construction, indicating confidence in his role.
Insight pageLuther Burden
PositiveMatchup0:47
Luther Burden is a strong pick for Week 17 against Detroit, with the Chicago-Detroit matchup being a favorable spot.
Insight pagePositiveRole0:51
Mattek drafted Luther Burden as part of his core team construction in the early rounds.
Insight pageMalik Benson
PositiveValue0:27
Malik Benson has 0.0% expected ownership, indicating he is completely unpicked in the market.
Insight pageMalik Willis
PositiveSleeper0:49
Malik Willis is an active target for the author in every fantasy football draft at this stage, and the author loves drafting him despite others not being on board.
Insight pageMarvin Jones
PositiveProjection0:37
Marvin Jones was good for fantasy and appears in the statistical comparison group for wide receivers with similar career profiles.
Insight pageParker Washington
NegativeProjection0:35
Parker Washington is not the profile of a fifth-round pick based on his career statistical comparisons, despite having 167 targets in his NFL career.
Insight pagePuka Nacua
PositiveRole0:56
It's not unusual that Puka isn't on the field in certain situations; many teams employ similar personnel packages, as the Chargers did last year.
Insight pageRhamondre Stevenson
PositiveValue0:54
Mattek chose Ramondre over other options like Pierce and Pollard, indicating he preferred Ramondre's value at that draft position.
Insight pageRicky White
PositiveValue0:01
Mattek would rather draft Ricky White than Omar Cooper Jr., indicating he prefers White's value.
Insight pageRJ Harvey
NegativeRole0:01
If Taysom Hill joins Denver, it would negatively impact Harvey's fantasy value due to Hill's role in the offense.
Insight pageSean Tucker
PositiveValue0:01
Tucker is a great pick with week 17 correlation to the Rams, making him an attractive late-round option.
Insight pageStefon Diggs
PositiveProjection0:01
Diggs is clearly rising in ADP; Mattek plans to keep taking him as he becomes available.
Insight pageStevie Johnson
PositiveProjection0:37
Stevie Johnson was good for fantasy and appears in the statistical comparison group for wide receivers with similar career profiles.
Insight pageTank Bigsby
PositiveValue0:32
Tank Bigsby was one of the author's dream picks in the ship-chasing draft, indicating strong conviction in his value.
Insight pageTaysom Hill
NegativeRole0:01
If Taysom Hill signs with Denver, it would be worse than Mattek's worst nightmare because it would complicate drafting RJ Harvey due to Hill's role in the offense.
Insight pageTravis Etienne
NegativeValue0:01
Mattek chose Omar Cooper Jr. over Travis Hunter, suggesting he prefers Cooper Jr.'s value at that draft position.
Insight pageTre Harris
PositiveUsage0:56
Harris played the most snaps of any wide receiver in many games last year because he was the blocking guy, but he was never getting the ball despite high snap counts.

1:20looks incredible at Jaguars training camp. Now, I am inclined to believe that this is true.
1:26If you're not inclined to believe that that is true, I suppose that I could see that, because Brian Thomas Jr.
1:34did have such a very, very difficult time for the Jaguars last season.
1:39But it sounds like his knee injury that was bothering him last year is a thing of the past.
1:46It sounds like the wrist injury that actually was the thing that really caused his poor play early on in the season
1:55is a thing of the past as well. He is going to occupy that sort of deep target role for the Jacksonville Jaguars.
2:04He should clearly be on the field in 12 personnel.
2:08I think the bigger conversation for the Jaguars right now is who is the second wide receiver in 12 personnel?
2:15Is it going to be Parker Washington? Is it going to be Jacoby Myers, who they extended after they traded for him?
2:24How much is Travis Hunter going to play? Is Travis Hunter going to play with Brian Thomas Jr.
2:31as we take Jameer Gibbs at the 101 in this draft?
2:35Or is Travis Hunter going to sub in for Parker Washington?
2:39Is he going to sub in for Jacoby Myers?
2:43I mean, I don't think we know the answer to that question right now.
2:48But I do know that Brian Thomas Jr. is one of the guys that I most want to be drafting before his price rises.
2:57As we've talked about quite a bit in fantasy football this year, these picks in the middle round are kind of insane.
3:06Like the guys are just going to be able to move like you would not believe.
3:12Like very little news is going to cause Emeka Egbuka to rise.
3:17A very small amount of news could get Parker Washington to rise or Roma Dunze or Marvin Harrison.
3:24I mean, they're really just micro quotes from coaches I think could actually get guys to move.
3:30And so that's one of the things that I'm doing in fantasy football right now is I want to be...
3:38I honestly want to be proactive with my exposures in a lot of cases.
3:43And so that is what I'm going to be doing today.
3:48We actually talked quite a bit about the Jaguars yesterday on the stream because we were talking about Byshell Tootin, who was
3:56having himself just a very, very interesting offseason for one Mr.
4:00Tootin. The reviews on Tootin have been quite good as well.
4:05But a lot of Brian Thomas Jr. in the stream today.
4:09If you guys came over from ShipChasing, GMGM. Always love starting with Jameer Gibbs at the 101.
4:15Actually, I think I can look at my portfolio over on flockfantasy.com.
4:20I am quite light on Jameer Gibbs compared to B.
4:24John Robinson just because I go with whatever the average draft position says.
4:29You could certainly argue that that is bad, but it should get evened out over time.
4:35Let's see here. Can I check my running back exposures?
4:39I bet they're both going to be around... Where's B.
4:43John here? So, B. John, I have 10%. And Jameer Gibbs, I have...
4:48Wow, I don't even have 6% of Jameer Gibbs.
4:51I got to keep scrolling. Jameer... Where's Jameer Gibbs, bro?
4:55Can I just search? Can I search? There we go.
4:595.8%. I mean, I don't... I don't... I don't love that.
5:03I really, really don't. Non-obvious situational change. Who do you think is the closest from a strong rise?
5:10You're going to have to rephrase that. I do not.
5:14Wyatt, I do not know what you mean. That was a very confusingly worded question.
5:20I think following ADP is fine, but Gibbs is clearly going to flip B.
5:25John. Yeah. Yep. And that's on me. That's on me.
5:29I honestly really probably should have been paying more attention to that because having...
5:34Well, you know what? Actually, you know what? It's actually going to be fine because I think I've only got about...
5:43I've got about 500 drafts done. Or no, I've got like 600 drafts done and completed right now.
5:49Exactly 600. 600 drafts in on the Flock Fantasy Best Ball Portfolio page.
5:54So we're going to have... We're going to do 1,000 more drafts.
5:59We're going to do 1,500 more drafts. So plenty of time for those things to equal themselves out.
6:06Willing to entertain a Kenneth Walker question? Certainly. Yes.
6:10I'm always down to talk about Kenneth Walker. Was I saying the Walker injury prone wasn't a narrative?
6:16I just... Honestly, it's just a narrative that I missed.
6:20Fresno Kid. I was just not exposed to the...
6:24Dang it. All right. I missed on Gibbs Bowers.
6:27That is unfortunate. Let's do Jeremiah Love. And you know what?
6:31Let's take Chris Alavi. So this is the new contest on Underdog, by the way.
6:37They just launched it yesterday. This is the pointer, which is 2 out of 12 advance, then 1 out of 6, then
6:461 out of 3 for a 188 person final.
6:49Who is the most undervalued team when it comes to fantasy players being drafted?
6:55It's probably one of the crappy teams. It's probably the Browns.
6:59It's probably the Jets. It's probably the Titans, where someone is super...
7:04Where the whole team is cheap. And if the team just has a slightly good fantasy football or just a slightly good
7:12season, then basically everyone on the team ends up being their bad.
7:17I mean, my vote right now would probably be the Titans, maybe followed by the Jets.
7:23I actually think the Jets could be surprisingly competent on offense.
7:27Unpopular opinion, but that is my opinion. Please explain why John Brooks is hyped to the moon, but Marshawn Lloyd goes past pick 200.
7:36Honestly, I think it's a combination of things. I mean, the first thing was that Jonathan Brooks was so much better in college than Marshawn Lloyd was.
7:47He was drafted earlier in the NFL draft. And Marshawn Lloyd has not had the same sort of season-ending injuries, like the
7:55obvious explanation for why he's been missing time. Whereas Marshawn Lloyd, it feels like this guy can't do anything.
8:03Like, Jonathan Brooks tore his ACL. What are you going to do?
8:07You tear your ACL. It just is what it is.
8:11But it's like, Marshawn Lloyd is like, oh dude, I stubbed my pinky toe.
8:16My hamstring is made... To me, it feels like Marshawn Lloyd's hamstring is made out of string cheese.
8:23It's just a very bad situation for Marshawn Lloyd.
8:27That's my opinion. Always open to being wrong, but...
8:30And Marshawn Lloyd has a starting running back ahead of him.
8:35Jonathan Brooks could just easily be the week one starter for the Carolina Panthers.
8:40For PPR scoring, what players are in your tier one?
8:44Maybe the first five guys. Gibbs, Bijon, Chase, Puka, and Jackson, Smith, and Jigba.
8:49Aside from obvious risers signing on a team, relief from injury concerns, or ease of situational occurrence, who is the community waiting on?
8:58I mean, Brooks could actually go so much, so much higher than he does.
9:03I think that we could see Terry McLaurin get even higher if Brandon Ayoub does not go there.
9:10Bucky Irving could go all the way back up based on very little stuff happening.
9:16Brian Thomas Jr., who we just started the stream talking about, I think is going to end up being more expensive.
9:24Who else? Jaden Reed, if we get a quote about him just being a clear starting player.
9:31Thinking about ramping up from 30 to 50 slows to 100 to 200.
9:36Any tips for managing them? Number one tip for managing them, turn off notifications on your phone and put an alarm or
9:44a reminder in your cell phone to go and do them.
9:49Because you will be insane. Like, my phone right now, look at the notifications on my phone.
9:55I mean, I have 28 underdog notifications and 35 DraftKings notifications unchecked.
10:00So I would say turn notifications off and then just set an alarm to do them.
10:06That's advice that I do not follow because I'm too paranoid about missing them.
10:11But if you're going to be doing 100, 200 slow drafts, turn the notifications off.
10:17Be done with it. I mean, if you're in, you know, I'm in 350 of these.
10:23So I got to stay on top of it.
10:27All right, we have two running backs. We have one wide receiver.
10:31We are going to select Jalen Waddle, who's a part of Karim's Dream Draft.
10:37And I'm also going to take Byshell Tootin. So we have Jameer Gibbs, Jeremiah Love, Byshell Tootin, Chris Alave, and Jalen Waddle.
10:45These are all combinations of players that I quite like.
10:49Looking like, in terms of advance rate stuff, five running backs is historically the best.
10:55And, huh. Historically, this has not been a very high advance rate start.
11:00So I'm going to have to try and work my way out of this one.
11:06You think none of the Broncos running backs can hit?
11:10They're all just so cheap, though. I think it would be very hard for none of the Broncos running backs to hit
11:18because they are just all so cheap. So that would be strange.
11:23All said in, a lot of slows is easier on UD than DK.
11:28That is true. It is much easier to just knock them out on Underdog.
11:33But I would just say, basically, if you are going to do it, you need to have a process.
11:40And, I mean, frankly, I would say having the Flock tool makes it quite a bit easier for me.
11:48Because when I go to my active screen, I can just click right in and I can know who my stacks are.
11:56I can know what I need positionally. It just bing, bang, boom.
12:01Just knocks it out very, very quickly. So I know my stacks and everything.
12:06Yeah, checking in every five hours and making any pick you have, I think, feels just about right.
12:13So stack-wise, I have Shuck set up. I have Nick set up.
12:18Those are actually decent picks to try and do at 97.
12:22Shuck doesn't get to 120 anymore, which is pretty difficult, though.
12:26What is my RAS score? I mean, my RAS score would be zero, probably.
12:32I would assume. I'm not very fast. I can't jump very high.
12:36I can bench a lot, but I'm just very small.
12:40RAS grades on size quite a bit. So it would be very, very hard for me.
12:46My, like, three cone or whatever might be okay.
12:50Like, my agility stuff might be all right. But in terms of...
12:54I mean, my 40 would be terrible. My 40 would be, like, what, five and a half or six, though?
13:02Ken Walker on the Seahawks Super Bowl team with the third highest rush percentage.
13:08Now he's on the cheapo, the third lowest rush percentage.
13:11Why such a rise over last year's production? The Chiefs are much better on offense than the Seahawks.
13:18I would say that's probably the case. And instead of splitting a backfield with Zach Charbonnet, he will be splitting it with
13:27Amari Di Mercado and Emmitt Johnson, who are much worse players than he is.
13:32All right. So coming up... So this is a really tricky spot.
13:37I actually... This is, like, my least favorite part of drafts right now.
13:42Is the 6-7 turn on the left side of the board where you are...
13:47It's all quarterbacks. And then you have to decide, well, do I want to take an uncorrelated up-to-this-point quarterback?
13:55Do I kind of want to reach on a wide receiver?
13:59Do I want to take one of the dustball running backs?
14:03It is... It's just a very tough part of the draft.
14:07I don't feel comfortable, really, with any of these clicks.
14:11I mean, I do actually end up... Honestly, I end up taking so much Jalen Hurts because I feel like he's clearly the best pick here.
14:21Yeah. You know what? That is what I'm going to do.
14:26I'm going to take Jalen Hurts, and then I'm going to take Makai Lemon.
14:31So we have got... We've got our stack lined in there.
14:35And I mean, I don't even think that is, like, you know, the all-time greatest stack or anything.
14:42But I don't mind it at all. Davis, there's been some Di Mercado hype.
14:48He's awesome at special teams and blocking. I mean, yes, he will be involved to the extent that, you know, Samaj P.
14:56Ryan or something like that was involved. I don't imagine him being a huge part of what they do, but he'll get some work.
15:05You know, I don't think he's going to go to zero or anything like that.
15:11I feel like Christian Watson's ADP is too late compared to some other wide receivers who go ahead of him.
15:19No, I think Christian Watson is valued pretty appropriately, honestly.
15:23I think he is neither a particularly good nor a particularly bad pick.
15:28He seems about break-even. Yeah, Mason is not in on Kenneth Walker.
15:32Mason might be too young to remember Kareem Hunt on the Kansas City Chiefs.
15:38Thoughts on Chess Liam winning a poker tournament? I'm very happy for my guy.
15:43Mr. Liam is going to be on with me tomorrow.
15:47Liam is coming on. So, tomorrow at 3 p.m.
15:50Eastern Time, 2 p.m. Central Time, Chess Liam will be coming on the channel.
15:56And we will be drafting fantasy football teams together.
15:59Andy Reid career 40 to 46 rushing percent. Hey, don't draft Ken Walker then, man.
16:05No one is making you draft Ken Walker. I would encourage you guys to maybe go look up some of the Andy Reid running backs, though.
16:15You guys might be a little bit too young to remember Brian Westbrook, LaShawn McCoy.
16:21These might be some guys who were not there when you first started playing fantasy football.
16:27Dude, the Kareem Hunt first game, he fumbled on his very first carry and they went right back to him.
16:35I have a big memory of that. Yeah, crazy.
16:38Do I think that Jack Besch will do anything in the Kubiak offense?
16:43I mean, probably not. I don't think many of the Raiders wide receivers will do much of anything, honestly.
16:51I think Brock Bowers might set the NFL record for targets in the season, really.
16:56I really would not be surprised by that. Am I worried about the Emmitt Johnson, LaShawn McCoy comparison?
17:03I am not. I am not. My first year playing fantasy football was Julio Jones' rookie season.
17:10Wow, what a time to be alive. That really was a moment in time.
17:15All right, so we have got Lawrence, I don't think, makes too much sense.
17:21Do I want to take Knicks? Wow, Mahomes has now officially jumped Knicks in ADP, so he's back up.
17:28He is the quarterback 11 now, so I guess I won't be able to say the quarterback 12 line anymore.
17:36He's now the quarterback 11. All right, Mahomes goes.
17:39This is another thing that is annoying about this range of draft is I don't really love taking Kyle Pitts either, so it just kind of gets frustrating.
17:50The positional stuff is just not great. Left side of the board, I think, is way worse than the right side of the board, honestly.
18:00All right. I mean, am I going to take Knicks here?
18:04Oh, no. Dang. It kills me on the buys, so maybe I just pass.
18:09I could do Goff and Laporta on this turn.
18:13Yeah, because you know what? That's what I'm going to do.
18:17I'm going to do Goff and Laporta on this turn.
18:21That's a combo I have none of. Okay, no.
18:24Goff is there, so we're going to do Jared Goff, and then we are going to take Sam Laporta.
18:32So now through nine rounds, we have Jalen Hurts, Jared Goff, Jameer Gibbs, Jeremiah Love, Byshell Tootin, Chris Alave, Jalen Waddle, Makai Lemon, and Sam Laporta.
18:42I think that was probably better than reaching on Tyler Shuck, honestly.
18:46New member, Hurricane Mike, GM GM. Hope to see you guys in the, Mike, hope to see you in the Discord.
18:54How many dupe teams have you drafted? I would assume zero.
18:59I don't think people really think about how hard it would be to draft a duplicated team.
19:05I mean, if you have the Flock Fantasy tool, you can check that because we've got the combos tool.
19:12So you do like, all right, Gibbs and Alave.
19:16I have 0% of that first time drafting that combination, 0.7% expected owned.
19:21But, I mean, you start adding these combinations in to the combos tool and you're going to find that it's basically impossible to do that.
19:31Late round Tesla. Love Isaac Tesla. There was a nice little highlight of Isaac Tesla from Lions training camp that just came out.
19:39My first year playing Fantasy, Chip Lohmiller kicked six field goals to win.
19:45I don't even remember Chip Lohmiller. Yeah, pretty tough.
19:48My guy Chimichanga with the Mahomes Worthy stack. That Worthy ADP is creeping up.
19:53Much to my chagrin, the Worthy ADP is coming up.
19:57Parker Washington ADP also creeping up. Brian Thomas Jr.
20:01How much longer will Parker Washington and Brian Thomas Jr.
20:05go like right back to back with each other at the wide receiver position?
20:10That's kind of an interesting question. Someone asked earlier, like ADPs that are ripe to change.
20:16That'll be one that changes over the course of the offseason based on reporting.
20:22Not based on an injury or anything like that.
20:25I don't know. I certainly am a little bit scared about being wrong on Parker Washington.
20:31I'm not scared about being wrong on Brian Thomas Jr.
20:35I guess Parker Washington could just be a lot better than I think he is.
20:41You know, I mean, I've gotten many of these things wrong before.
20:45It's actually funny because we were talking about that on ADP Chasing yesterday.
20:50Like, I was drafting Gabe Davis. I liked Gabe Davis that year.
20:55He was like a fourth round pick or whatever.
20:59No, I completely disagree with this. Brian Thomas Jr.'s role is the money.
21:04How big of a donation would it be to take Malik Benson on a Mendoza team?
21:10I mean, I don't even know if Malik Benson would make the roster because they have so many guys like that.
21:18You know, they got Alex Bachman-Turner, Overdrive. They got Trey Tucker.
21:22Like, they have so many kind of like wide receiver force.
21:26I mean, it wouldn't be impossible to take him.
21:30If he makes the roster, sure. I mean, if the guy's on the roster and you're an Oregon Ducks fan and you
21:38want to take Malik Benson, take Malik Benson, you know?
21:42All right, we have a 2-3-3-1. Dang. Well, I probably wouldn't have done Goff Laporta if I would have known that I
21:51would have been able to get Chuck. The thing is, is you just can never, you can never plan on getting your quarterback these days.
22:00Like, that's just not the way it works. See, if you want your quarterback, you have to get them ahead of ADP by quite a bit.
22:10Do I take him? Do I do the third quarterback?
22:14I mean, the advance rates are basically break-even. All right, so let's do Diggs.
22:20And then do I want to take Goddard? Well, I don't even really know what I want to do here.
22:27You know what? I am just going to take Chuck.
22:31I'm just going to take Chuck and Lave. We're going to take three quarterbacks.
22:37It's what I like to do. I know you're out on Pierce for his role.
22:42Brian Thomas Jr.'s role is exactly the same. I couldn't really disagree with that much more.
22:48Their roles are very, very different. I mean, if you just want to look at these guys, historically, we've got Brian Thomas and we've got Alec Pierce.
22:59So if you just include last season, Brian Thomas Jr.'s yards per route run was 1.61, but on a much lower average depth target.
23:08If we extend this to their careers, I think you're just going to see.
23:14These are much, much, oh, let me filter by, I need average depth of target.
23:19Do we not have that? Do we not have average depth of target?
23:24Need to get that added, Mason. I think I have to click on their individual profile to get it.
23:32So Brian Thomas Jr., career. Wait, where is it?
23:35Maybe they don't have ADOT. I mean, Alec Pierce had an 18 ADOT last year, maybe even higher.
23:42I have more Pittman than Downs, but that will probably be equal at some point.
23:48Yes, I completely agree with this. When a stackable quarterback falls past average ADP, it feels so good because it feels like it never, never happens.
23:58You know? My buddy who lives in Vegas was saying the local radio guy said, don't be surprised if Mendoza doesn't start that many games this year.
24:08I mean, I would be stunned. You could knock me over with a feather if Kirk Cousins is still starting in like week six or whatever.
24:18Just impossible. Kirk Cousins stinks. You know, Mendoza is the number one overall pick.
24:24Number one overall pick is just play. The last, the last like number one overall pick to sit or last even like
24:32first round quarterback to sit was like Mahomes. Or Jordan Love or whatever.

27:05That would be a fun query for it to run on BBM.
27:10I mean, here, I can actually hear. This is funny.
27:14I can look up Malik Benson. Malik Benson's expected ownership, 0.0%.
27:18To me, I don't know if Alec Pierce passes the eye test.
27:23I mean, he looks cool while he plays. But I don't know if it's a super valuable fantasy role.
27:30But, you know, I mean, the bigger concern for Alec Pierce right now is he had this off-season ankle injury.
27:38And it doesn't seem that he's even going to be ready for training camp.
27:43So, I don't like that all that much. I mean, I just...
27:48I guess I wasn't in on Alec Pierce to begin with.
27:52So, him having an injury is just kind of a convenient thing for me to be like, I'm not really that into it.
28:01I've been taking a lot of Gainwell and Tucker lately and fading everything Bucky.
28:06I mean, I take a lot of Tucker. I don't take very much Gainwell.
28:12I do... I still like taking Bucky. I mean, where did Bucky go on this one?
28:18Pick 58. I think Bucky's a pretty good pick at the tail end of the fifth.
28:24I think Bucky is a pretty strong fantasy football pick there.
28:28I mean, we've seen him do it. So, the data that is in the actual database is only from Flock User Drafts.
28:37But it's done... Like, the devs, like, mathed it out to do a projection based on what the whole pool would be.
28:45All right. We are going to select... Actually, I'm going to take Debo on this one.
28:51And then... Do I want to take Bigsby? No.
28:55Let's take Woody Marks. Let's eat our vegetables. So, we have Hertz, Goff, and Shuck.
29:01Jameer Gibbs, Jeremiah Love, Byshell Tootin, Woody Marks, Chris Alave, Jalen Waddle, Makai Lemons, Stephon Diggs, Debo Samuel.
29:08Super chaperones to go with Makai Lemon. And then we just have Sam Laporta left.
29:13So, maybe a little bit of Stowers later in this one.
29:18If you're comparing the career stuff, I sincerely believe the rookie BTJ role isn't coming back.
29:24Reporting makes it seem like he's in the Slayton Bateman role.
29:28I don't... I don't think... I don't think it will be that bad.
29:33I agree with you that he will probably lead all of their wide receivers and average depth of the target.
29:41You know, I don't think that he will have like...
29:45I don't think he's going to have like a 37% target share or whatever.
29:50It'll probably be like 22%. But it's kind of a good...
29:54It's kind of a really good role for best ball, actually.
29:59Maybe a little bit more annoying once we start talking about like seasonal manage type stuff.
30:05Actually, certainly more annoying and like seasonal manage type stuff, actually.
30:09I did pass on my dream round 14 guy.
30:12Sometimes you got to do it. Chances that James Conner gets traded or released.
30:18To me, I feel like it's pretty high. Why?
30:21Because they are... You know, they were actually just talking to the coaching staff this year or today, this week, about the roles in their backfield.
30:31And they did not talk about James Conner. They talked about, you know, the guy having the hot hand or whatever.
30:39And they mentioned Algier having the hot hand. They mentioned Jeremiah Love.
30:44No James Conner. And there are two pretty obvious spots, I think, for James Conner to go, which would be the Detroit
30:53Lions with his old offensive coordinator, Drew Petsig. And the Dallas Cowboys.
30:57I think he's going to go, too. He's going to go, too.
31:02If you guys want some half-baked Claude Slop Sims, you can check out easydfs.xyz.
31:07The jersey is... I mean, it's one of my favorite jerseys of all time, Easy.
31:13This is Jeremy Lin. Purchased during Linsanity. I got on NBA.com, NBAshop.com during Linsanity and ordered the overpriced replica Jeremy Lin.
31:21This probably was like $113 in whatever year that would have been, 2013 or whatever.
31:27But yeah, Jeremy Lin. This one is... This is a prized possession, for sure.
31:32For sure. Hate to say it, but Conner to the Jags is going to happen.
31:38See, I never... I was never... I was never a surezy guy.
31:43Never... I figured if I was going to spend the money, you might as well do the whole thing.
31:50Hmm. If the devs are only pulling flock users' data, how do they count for buys based on flock expert rankings for non-flock users?
31:59That would not be a question for me, Mr.
32:03Muffin, because I'm not a dev. I don't... Let me tell you this, Mr.
32:08Muffin. You don't want Davis Matic doing your math.
32:12You don't want me messing with your formulas. You can ask me...
32:16You can ask me an opinion, and I can have a thought on how it might work in practice.
32:24But you do not want Davis Matic doing your math for you.
32:28That much, I can assure you. Okay. We have got a 3-4-5-1.
32:33I guess we're just going to tack on two guys at the end, because we're...
32:39I'm going to take two of my... Actually, these guys were both of my dream picks in the ship-chasing draft.
32:46Tank Bigsby and Dijon Stribling. So we got our...
32:50We have two rookie wide receivers and then two dusty old vets with Debo and Diggs.
32:56So quite nice right there. This team is actually coming together.
33:00I love this contest. I love the size of this.
33:04How many total entrants are in the pointer? Only 20,000 entrants in this tournament.
33:09It's going to fill tonight, by the way. So if you want to get in, you know, get in.
33:17And you know what they say. A completed draft is a good draft.
33:22I hope the underdog peeps know the daily soccer contest will be great, especially once we get to the knockouts.
33:30100%. Yeah. 100%. I am going to be... It's actually my plan for this afternoon to draft some of the daily soccer contests.
33:38I am so excited for the World Cup. If you guys have not registered yet, by the way, very, very important for you guys to know about this.
33:49But we... Over on Splash Sports, our friends... We have a contest over on Splash.
33:55We have the Swolecast 20K World Cup Survivor. It is probably...
33:59It is probably the easiest money that you can make because everyone in this is not going to be very sharp.
34:07So head on over and hop yourself in to the Swolecast 20K World Cup Survivor.
34:13However, when you were looking at these similar stat profiles of Parker Washington, you didn't take into account he came in the
34:22NFL injured and got hurt his second year. I mean, I did take account for it because I just filtered by guys
34:30their first three years in the NFL with similar statistical profiles.
34:34How would you want me to account for that, Mr.
34:38Sleep awaits for you? Do you want me to...
34:42Do you want me to... Here, you know what?
34:45You know what? I'll... You know, we're hanging out here.
34:49We're having a good time. We're picking on the turns.
34:53We have a little bit of time. I will run the query.
34:57I will run the query in a different way that will make it more fair to Parker Washington, actually.
35:05So I will go Parker Washington. I will look at his career.
35:09So Parker Washington has played in 42 NFL games.
35:13So I'll go player season pro. Am I going to be hitting some of the World Cup daily streets?
35:20100%. Yes, I will. I'll go first. Lad top five receiver and Herbert wins MVP.
35:26I mean, that's just my nightmare. I just... That is what we would call an absolute nightmare, Robert.
35:33I honestly need to draft more Justin Herbert teams just so that that couldn't kill me.
35:39All right. So I think if I go to Game Finder, find totals from all games in a season...
35:46All right. This is going to take me... Actually, this is going to take me a little bit of time to run this filter correctly.
35:56But I want to filter it correctly. I just didn't know if you knew because the Jags sucked those years.
36:04Look, I don't think Parker Washington is terrible. But he just is not the profile of a fifth-round pick to me.
36:12All right. We are on the clock. We are going to select Pat Fryermuth.
36:17And then we are going to select Greg Dulcich because I need to up the Dulcich bags.
36:24And then we've got one more pick left for a wide receiver.
36:28Okay. So player game stats. Find totals from all games in combined seasons or a career by player matching criteria.
36:36So we'll go 2025 to 2010. We'll go regular season.
36:40Span of games. Player of game career. 1 through 42.
36:44Parker Washington in his career has 167 targets. So we'll go targets over 100.
36:49And then we will go targets less than 250.
36:53We will go player filters. We'll go year of player's career.
36:57First four seasons. We will go draft status. Drafted rounds four to seven.
37:02Then we will do... I'm going to leave age out of it.
37:07I need position. Position. Clear. Wide receiver. All right.
37:10This should be... This should be more fair to Parker Washington.
37:14Okay. So we... Gabe Davis does show up. Marvin Jones shows up.
37:19Marvin Jones was good for fantasy. Stevie Johnson was good for fantasy.
37:24MBS was never really any good. There you go.
37:27There's P. Wash. Johnny Knox. Wicks. Jarius Wright. Mario Douglas.
37:31Quincy Inunwa. David Moore. Khalil Shakir. Kayshawn Booty. Jacoby Ford.
37:35Yoshi. I mean, a lot of these guys sadly stink.
37:39Garcon. Russell Gage. Yeah. I mean... It's still not a great list.
37:43I got to say, it's still not a great list.
37:47It's not the worst list, but it's not a great one.
37:51The ADP grade being a part of the team grade algal on the flock tool feels like big flock trying to keep
38:00people confined to the shackles of ADP to prevent people flipping the board to get unique.
38:06Why? Okay. So first off, that's obviously like... It's just based on historical data in general.
38:12But why... Why... When you say get unique, when someone's saying I want to get unique, why do you want to get unique?
38:21What is the value in getting unique? This isn't...
38:25This is a 188 person final. If you played in a 188 person daily fantasy sports contest, you would just play the chalk.
38:33You would just play like something very close to the optimal lineup.
38:38And the uniqueness is going to be taken care of by the performance of your guys in week 15 and week 16.
38:47That is what's going to happen. I mean, honestly, yeah.
38:50If you want to get unique, get a sick ADP value.
38:55If you want to get a really good grade using the flock tool, take a guy 10 spots after ADP.
39:02Just take a huge ADP faller. And then you'll have a unique combo.
39:07You know, like, I don't know. Let's go combo tool.
39:11So let's go, for example... Let's go Jameer Gibbs and someone who gets drafted higher.
39:17So let's go like Jameer Gibbs in London. Which, like, could happen, but is super, super rare, right?
39:240.5%. I have one of those on 600 teams.
39:27It's 0.5% expected. You said it yourself. The wide receiver passes six rounds to the 10th.
39:34I mean, they are. So I'm not saying you...
39:37I'm not saying... I'm not saying you can't do it.
39:41I'm just saying, in terms of being unique, there's just not that much value in being unique.
39:48I mean, I'm just going to take Dontavian Wicks, I think.
39:52Yeah, I'm just going to take Wicks here. All right.
39:56Team 1, wrapped up. Jalen Hurts, Jared Goff, Tyler Shuck, Jameer Gibbs, Jeremiah Love, Byshell Tootin, Woody Marks, Tank Bigsby, Chris Alave,
40:04Jalen Waddle, Mekhi Lemons, Tavon Diggs, Debo Samuel, Dijon Stripling, and one Mr.
40:09Dontavian Wicks. And I got a C. See advancement.
40:13See AVP score. See uniqueness. So sometimes... Sometimes... Big flock.
40:16Sometimes I don't even like my teams. All right.
40:20Let's go back and do... Let's do another one of these.
40:24Because this is the contest that is close... Dude, you know what?
40:29I need to start hopping into some of these Puppy 2s.
40:33I am running light in the Puppy 2. Sometimes the most unique teams are when you reach 13 plus picks.
40:41I mean, that will increase your uniqueness. I would say the...
40:45In terms of like if you are using the flock tool for your teams, the thing that I care about the most is the AVP part of it.
40:56Yeah, I agree with McNix here. Which is that the uniqueness really shouldn't be a huge part.
41:02I mean, you can definitely care about it. But I don't think...
41:07I don't think it is like the most important part.
41:11I think the number one thing you should think about doing is...
41:15Honestly, just getting a bunch of good values. That to me is sort of the right way to draft.
41:23All right. My guy Ryan is in at 10.
41:26Who are we drafting with here? We are drafting with Blizz, Chimichanga, my guy Dreaming of Sundays, my guy James Bean, my guy Rotisserie...
41:36Well, our friends and family here. Rotisserie Rob, Traderna, Lambo Pete 12, Mr.
41:41Unlikely, RL Pounder, no, R Lounder Pounder, McGravey, and Reed 615.
41:45I am drafting out of the 8th slot in this one.
41:49Let's have ourselves a draft. Thoughts on taking McBride and Brock at the 1-2 turn?
41:55Seems terrible. Because you can... Like, it's terrible because teams are going to have that in round 2 and round 3, and
42:03they're also going to have a first-round pick on top of it.
42:08You could do it on the FFPC. All right.
42:11At 8, I mean, I guess this is probably going to end up being...
42:17Yeah, I mean, we're just going to take St.
42:20Brown. Well, I am lighter on than intended because I have 15% of Justin Jefferson, so I guess I need to start taking some more Amon Ross St.
42:31Brown. Yeah, let's do it. Sometimes taking St. Brown feels like eating your vegetables, but very, very good for fantasy.
42:39Unique in the sense that only one team wins the top prize.
42:43Yeah, but you're not going to be duped. Like, not only were your team in the finals not be duped, you will
42:52always have an out in the finals. But, like, your team is just not going to be duped.
42:59Even if BBM was 5 million entries, you know, your team is not going to be duplicated.
43:05I'd be far less concerned about uniqueness versus the field than me being vastly overweight on the same first and second round combos.
43:14So, that's actually a very good point, Michael, which is that that is something you can be concerned about.
43:22Or not concerned, but you can just think about, do I just have too much of this combination of first and second round picks?
43:31And I'm too overweight on this group. That is legit.
43:35That, I would definitely say, you can think about making some decisions there.
43:40Drop the link for Splash. Hey, I will happily drop the link for Splash.
43:45If anyone else wants it, it is in the chat right now.
43:50And if you just go over to Splash Sports and you just search for Swolecast in the lobby, you will find it if you want it.
44:00All right, we are back up now. Not able to take Ken Walker because Reed got him.
44:06I mean, I'll take Devin A-Chain when he falls after ADP.
44:11Devin A-Chain's ADP is 15. I will take him at 17.
44:15I'm not super enthusiastic about it, but St. Brown and A-Chain is quite the start.
44:21Yeah, you can definitely think about, like, combinatorial ownership.
44:24I would say your own combinatorial ownership is probably more important than the field's combinatorial ownership in terms of how does this impact, like, my risk?
44:34How does this impact my range of outcomes? It doesn't really do much.
44:39The way I understand EV, the way that Shady has explained it to me, it doesn't really impact your EV all that much.
44:48But it can impact, like, the risk of your overall portfolio.
44:52Yeah, brother. Got the Knicks, Jay Lynn, brother. The kids these days, Brady Betts, they don't know.
44:59They don't know about Jeremy Lynn. They're in the dark, dude.
45:03They don't, they just don't, they do not remember him looking off Kobe against the Raptors.
45:09That, that Raptors game winner, I mean, just one of my favorite basketball moments of all, all time.
45:16All right, Rashi goes, all right, chance for me to put my money where my mouth is in a contest that is all about the regular season.
45:27Will Davis take Malik Neighbors? Well, no, I won't because he went, so I will take Kyron Williams.
45:33I mean, shout out, shout out to Lambeau Pete, not giving me a chance to ruin more of my bags with, with Malik Neighbors.
45:43Who is the Jeremy Lynn of the NFL? I mean, there are probably, there, there are legitimately probably a billion like fantasy
45:51football wide receivers and running backs who could be the Jeremy Lynn, Travis Fulgham or whatever.
45:57Jeremy Langford, Antoine Smith, Sam Con, Sam Con Gatto.
46:01And there, there are a lot of, a lot of NFL guys who could, you know, who had a good two weeks.
46:09The number of unique team combinations has 50 zeros in it.
46:14Yeah, it's, it's, it's, it's a truly infinite combination.
46:17You could just, you could just draft and draft and draft and never.
46:22Uh, I'm not super in on HN either, but he does seem live to do a 2025 Derek Henry limp along the nuke in the money weeks.
46:33I mean, that's the thing with HN is he can giga mega nuke in any given game, any given game that the Miami Dolphins are roughly, roughly competitive.
46:43HN has a 30 burger in him. And, and just to get that profile of guy with an elite wide receiver, to
46:52get that guy with Amon around St. Brown is crazy.
46:56I mean, it really is. If you think about it, like generally speaking, that should be, that should be too hard to do.
47:05He, if he was on a good team, if HN was on a good team, he'd be like the 1.7.
47:12Like if the Dolphins win total was nine and a half, he would, he would go ahead of Ken Walker and those guys for sure.
47:22Oh, come on. Give me, give me the week 17.
47:26Give me Luther burden. Give me the week 17 Detroit, Chicago.
47:30Set it up. Or should I take, should I take lad?
47:34Okay. Well, I was, I was going to say, should I take lad and protect my bags there?
47:41But we are going to take one Mr. Luther burden.
47:45It does. It does stink. He's on the Dolphins.
47:48I mean, shout out to him for getting his, for getting the bag.
47:54What'd he get? He got a three year contract extension.
47:57I mean, shout out, shout out to my guy for getting the bag.
48:02That's very important. You know, a lot of running backs don't get the bag and I guess they didn't have anyone else to pay.
48:12So you might as well pay Jalen Waddle, but it does kind of stink that the next like what four years of his career.
48:21We're just not going to get to see him play on a super competitive team.
48:27Oh, this is actually a great question. Where would a Chan go?
48:31If he were on the 49ers in place of CMC, he would go, he would go after Gibbs and Bijan.
48:39I don't, I don't think he could get, cause he is still small and he is still, you know, I mean, he's,
48:48he's been nicked up a good bit in his NFL career.
48:52I think that, I think that he would be the one dot three.
48:57Yeah. Devin HN was just traded straight up for McCaffrey.
49:01He would be, he would be right there. We picked a breeze higher.
49:06This is actually a great point. I hadn't, I hadn't even really thought about this, but we did pick.
49:13Aaron Rogers, Brees Hall higher than HN has ever gone.
49:17It's a good point. Just finished ADP chasing. I want to thank you for acquiescing us sickos.
49:23Yes. Tomorrow with Chess Liam at 3 PM Eastern, 2 PM central.
49:28We're going to look back and wonder why we didn't draft Malik Willis.
49:33Couldn't agree more. It's, it's, it's the only opinion that it seems like my, my fellow ship chasing ADP chasing slappy guys
49:42are, are just not with me on. But I love drafting Malik Willis.
49:47He's an active target for me in like every fantasy football draft at this stage.
49:52Oh, I mean, good spot for me to get two guys.
49:57I don't have very much of Devante Adams or Deandre Swift, unless they both go, which would be a little annoying.
50:05I mean, I have like no Deandre Swift and I, okay, well, I guess we're going to continue not having any Deandre Swift here.
50:14Uh, all right. Devante Adams double up on the Rams.
50:18There you go. I have very little Devante Adams compared to the market.
50:23Keep going there. Uh, am I good at poker?
50:26I mean, good is good as relative. You know, I messed around with Pio Solver.
50:32I've played, um, actually just, uh, three weekends ago when I was on that golf trip, I played, uh, I, I sat
50:41down and played in the poker room, but yeah, I, uh, I'm, I went, I like, could I, could I go to
50:49Vegas and beat five, 10, no limit? Probably not.
50:52No, actually I would say definitely not. Definitely. I would not be able to.
50:58Ooh, how many total players do you have exposure to at this point?
51:03I want, is there a way there's gotta be a way.
51:07Is there a way to check this on, on flock fantasy.com?
51:11They're almost, they're almost has to be LOL. Donkman.
51:15See, I know enough about poker to know about LOL.
51:19Donkman. How about that? Uh, total players. Three hundred and five players I've drafted.
51:24So through, through, so through 600 drafts, I've taken three hundred and five different players so that you could argue that's too many players.
51:33You could, you could certainly argue that that is too many players.
51:38Now that includes super flex. That includes pre-draft, but it's, it's still probably too many players.
51:44Uh, we're going to take Caleb Williams. So we have now got a one, two, three build.
51:51Caleb Williams, Devin A. Chain, Kyron Williams, Amon Ross St.
51:55Brown, Luther Burden, and Devante Adams. Very, very narrow part of the game tree here today.
52:01Sitting on a good amount of Swift and Devante Adams.
52:05Why don't you like to click them? Honestly, I don't even really have a good answer for you.
52:12I think the issue with Swift is that I was behind on him when he was going here, when he was going in the 60s.
52:21Uh, I was taking Tootin. And then what's happened is other running backs have correspondingly gotten more expensive.
52:28So Tootin is going in that range now, like Bucky Irving is going in that range now.
52:35So my, my, my ranking has just not lined up well with the, with, uh, with DeAndre Swift.
52:42And also same thing is true with Devante Adams, where I've, I've kind of always had someone rank over Devante Adams, but
52:50now, now he's coming into a really good range.
52:54Now, now it's coming into a range where I'm much more comfortable taking him.
52:59Most people don't realize how much their personal information is being bought and sold every day.
53:05Data brokers are making billions, pulling details about you from public records and the internet, and then packaging and selling it, usually without your consent.
53:15That's how your information lands in the hands of scammers, spammers, even stalkers.
53:20It's why you get endless robocalls and why ads seem to follow you everywhere.
53:25That's where Aura comes in. Aura actively removes your data from broker sites and keeps it off.
53:32They also instantly alert you if your information shows up in a breach or on the dark web.
53:39But Aura goes beyond data protection. With one app, you get a VPN, antivirus, password manager, spam call protection, dark web monitoring,
53:47and even up to $5 million in identity theft insurance.
53:51All backed by 24-7 U.S.-based fraud support. Other companies might sell just credit monitoring or just a VPN.
53:58Aura gives you all of it, together, at the same price competitors charge for just one service.
54:05Protect yourself now at Aura.com. Yeah, I'm also curious on this as well.
54:10How far Alec Pierce is going to drop given the nature of his foot injury.
54:15I mean, I would be... If I had a big Alec Pierce position, I would potentially be a little bit worried about that as well.
54:25All right. Well, what do we do here? This is another part of the draft that I just...
54:32What do I... Do I want to take Ramondre here?
54:36I don't really want to take out Pierce. I don't really want to take Pollard.
54:42I mean, I could take Herbie. Herbie in a backstack?
54:45No, I'm going to take... I'm going to take the running back.
54:50I'm going to take one of Ramondre or Pollard here.
54:54All right, Ramondre. A 1-3-3-0. Let's see where we're at advance rate-wise.
54:5916% both 2-3 quarterback. Ooh. 5 running back, almost a 23% historical advance rate.
55:047... Yeah. So 2-5-8-3 is what the computer is telling me to do.
55:09I mean, I think Pierce should move down about 10 spots probably.
55:14I think he should go in the 90s, I think.
55:17Is there a reason why Adams is going around later than Stafford-Baxcare ADP from last year?
55:24I mean, I think they're... It's like they were rumored to be in on Makai Lemon.
55:30They were rumored to potentially be trading for AJ Brown.
55:34They drafted another tight end, so they're going to be going even harder on the 12 and 13 personnel.
55:41He's also a year older, right? I mean, you are...
55:45The dude is 33 years old. You are starting to incur some real risk that that's just it for Devontae.
55:53I'm not saying it's the most likely thing, but it does become more possible year over year when a guy is 33, 34 years old.
56:02Same deal with one Mr. Derrick Henry. You know what?
56:06Harvey actually is kind of a nice pick here.
56:10Harvey's not bad. Okay, well, Harvey went. Not an obvious quarterback to take.
56:15All right, we're going to do... We're going to do Downs.
56:19We're going to do Downs. Downs a guy... Coraine just picked him on his dream team.
56:25I like Josh Downs. Alec Pierce's injury is obviously good for him.
56:30Yeah, if he were 26, he would probably go where T.
56:34Higgins goes. It's not that odd that Puka isn't on the field there.
56:39Lots of teams do stuff like this. The Chargers did this last year.
56:44Trey Harris, this is actually a funny one. Trey Harris actually had a ton of games last year where he played the
56:52most snaps of any wide receiver because he was the blocking guy.
56:57So, Trey Harris last year... If I go to his game logs...
57:02I mean, look at this. 97, 46, 46, 86, 51, 49, 52.
57:06He was playing a ton of snaps. He just was never, never ever getting the ball.
57:12So, some teams really like to do that. Yeah, Braylon Allen, 250 pounds.
57:17Saw that today. I mean, that is an absurd size for an NFL running back.
57:23250 pounds, man. Come on. Wow. Record deal. Tying him to Kansas City through the 2033 season at the value of $504.75 million.
57:32$504 million. Braylon Jacobs. This is a great... That is a great bit.
57:37That is a great, great bit, Nitty Dijen. Braylon Jacobs.
57:41The kids don't remember Brandon Jacobs. They don't remember at all, man.
57:46Stafford is a very good pick here with Adams.
57:49You know what? Actually, though, we're going to take Jonathan Brooks.
57:53That Jonathan Brooks ADP is only going one direction, and that direction is not south.
57:59250 as a teenager is really something. He's got his whole life ahead of him.
58:05I am a slappy, but I've become slightly more boomer since Henry Adams helped me win my championship last season.
58:13Well, that's a good reason. It's funny. It's funny how those boomer players will often end up winning you championships.
58:20Braylon Allen has been indulging in the NY Chopped Cheese Bodega scenery.
58:25Oof. That sounds so good. I'm so hungry, man.
58:28And I have just a nice plate of chicken and cauliflower waiting for me upstairs.
58:34Actually, honestly, I complain, dude. Cauliflower is so good.
58:38Baked cauliflower with just a little bit of olive oil, some salt, lemon juice maybe.
58:43Cauliflower honestly fire. If you are cutting, it's about as good as it gets.
58:49Kind of like my mouth is watering. I'm thinking about cauliflower right now.
58:54It's kind of like your replacement for a fry or a chip or something.
58:59Because if you cook it correct, it's still a little crispy, man.
59:04Can't wait. Can't wait. Obesity is the silent killer.
59:07He may not have his full life ahead of him.
59:11That's a good bit. That's a good bit. I mean, I'm just going to take Stafford here if I don't get sniped.
59:20And I didn't. So we have Caleb. We have Stafford.
59:24We have A-Chan. We have Kyron. We have Ramondre.
59:27We have Jonathan Brooks. I'm on Ross St. Brown, Luther Burden, Devontae Adams, and Joshua Downs.
59:33We are stacked up in this draft, boys. Honestly, dude, he should.
59:38Braylon should try and go full beast mode, full Brandon Jacobs mode, full Marion Barber mode on the baby linebackers in the NFL.
59:47You're going to try and play dime against us.
59:50You're going to try and play nickel against us.
59:54We have a 250-pound running back. Knock them up.
59:57Line them up. Knock them down. Yes, dude. Crushed red pepper flakes.
60:02If you guys are not hip to crush red pepper flakes, this is the goat seasoning.
60:08I put this stuff on everything, dude. I put it on eggs.
60:13I put it on chicken. I put it on ground beef.
60:17I put it on... Actually, I put it in low-fat cottage cheese.
60:21Dude, it is so good. I've been waiting my whole life.
60:26I don't know why I was never that hip for it.
60:30Spurs or Knicks tonight? I hate to say it.
60:33I mean, I'm literally wearing the Knicks jersey, but the Spurs are better, dude.
60:39Spurs are a better team. So I'm just putting...
60:42Yes, I'm putting different stuff on my red pepper flakes.
60:46Would I try the Kool-Aid pineapple thing? No shot, dude.
60:50No shot. I mean, how many... Okay, in one of those pineapple Kool-Aid things, how many grams of carbs do you think are in one pineapple spear?
61:00Do you think one pineapple spear is like 200 grams of carbohydrates?
61:05I bet it might be. I bet you might get your full daily amount of carbs in one...
61:12Because it's pineapple, it's syrup, and it's Kool-Aid powder.
61:15That is disgusting, dude. That is so foul, man.
61:19You should not eat that. Oh, I'm on the clock.
61:23I mean, this is just going to be Diggs, right?
61:27I'm just going to keep taking Diggs. They're going to keep giving me Diggs, and I'm going to keep taking him.
61:35He is so clearly rising in ADP. Hey, don't knock it until you try it.
61:40A little bit of red chili pepper flakes in cottage cheese.
61:45I'm trying it. I'm saying. You got to try it.
61:49Cottage cheese, I mean, I don't love it. But...
61:52No, hey, eat pineapple. Eat pineapple if you want.
61:56Pineapple, I mean, I don't particularly like pineapple. Eat it if you want.
62:01But, man, the Kool-Aid pineapple, can't be eating that, bro.
62:04You want a round 20 flyer that actually no one has drafted.
62:09CJ Daniels. I probably am not going to be drafting CJ Daniels.
62:14I would probably draft Kanata Mumfeld instead. Garlic in cottage cheese?
62:18Like, you just put, like, minced garlic in there?
62:21Do you cook it? I don't think... I mean, hey.
62:25I eat a lot of questionable stuff just to, like, make my protein taste better.
62:31Man, what am I going to do at tight end on this team?
62:36I'm kind of cooked. I mean, I guess this is going to be like a Goddard team.
62:43Maybe a... I... These are probably my least favorite tight ends to take.
62:48The Kincaid-likely Goddard range is horrible. Like, what do I want to take these guys for?
62:54These guys stink, dude. Okay. Um... But, but, but, but, but, but.
62:58We're going to take... This one's for Corain. Instead of Travis Hunter, we're going to take Omar Cooper Jr., who I don't...
63:07And, and Mason actually loves Omar Cooper Jr. as well.
63:11I'd rather draft Ricky White. Ball knower. J. Michael Sturdevant, the old UCLA guy.
63:16Yeah, I saw, I saw Pete, Pete had a bit about this on Best Ball Breakfast this week, that he didn't know who J.
63:25Michael Sturdevant was. That's why, that's why, you know, Pete, Pete's got a, Pete's got a no ball.
63:32There, there's, there's just some ball that Pete has to learn.
63:37You know, we've, we've really lost Pete to reality TV.
63:40Pete is, is, he's not even drafting off stream these days, you know?
63:45Like, Pete, Pete's going to draft like a hundred teams the whole year, dude.
63:51Are we not going to, are we not going to get Pete?
63:55Like, is Pete even going to max BBM, dude?
63:59I don't know, dude. The people are worried about him.
64:03He didn't even know who J. Michael Sturdevant was.
64:06Not my Pete, dude. Not my Rotovis, Pete. Pete.
64:10Oh, tahini, tahini on fruit is delicious. Little bit of, little bit of tahini.
64:15I put that on, put it on watermelon or whatever.
64:19Fire. Yes, dude. Cooper Cup on Pete's dream team.
64:22I mean, that was crazy. That was, that was so far out of left field.
64:28I mean, come on. Might be a sociopath for this, but I mash up hard boiled egg, avocado, cottage cheese, seasoned.
64:36Okay. You, you, you're a bodybuilder, bro. You, you know, ball, you, you are, you are a real ball knower.
64:44Cause that is such a bodybuilder ass meal. All right.
64:48We are up. We got to take a tight end.
64:52And I guess we're going to take Hunter Henry.
64:55Cause we need, we need an adult. This team actually couldn't afford Sadiq.
65:00And I didn't want to take Sadiq with Omar Cooper jr.
65:05If you're not afraid of seed oils, I don't buy seed oils, but I, I will, of course I will.
65:12I will. I will eat seed oils. I'm not, I'm not like, well, I'm not like one of those guys, but I
65:21don't like cook and like canola oil. It's my 8% Reggie Virgil cook.
65:26Yes. Yes, it is. There is. It's true. There is a free 1900 yards in around 18 secret.
65:33If you, if you make it to the end of video, you will learn about the secret 1900 yard receiver in round 18.
65:42Pete dude, Pete jumped the shark dude. So obviously won't spend his actual money on drafts.
65:48He jumped the shark dude. Come on. The whole industry revolves around site credits, brother.
65:53You got to learn. You got to learn all your, all your big streamers, dude.
65:59It's all a side up. They're all, they're all paid by, they're all paid by the sites to draft.
66:07You know, it is what it is. Guess what, man?
66:10If I didn't have a marketing deal with underdog, I would not be drafting 3000 best ball teams.
66:17Sorry. Sorry to, sorry to tell you, man. I'd probably be drafting like 500 best ball teams, not 3000.
66:25It's true. It's true. The, uh, the site, the site credit cabal.
66:29Uh, how does one of Sires acquire site credits, uh, get a YouTube channel with 10,000 subscribers and then try and get
66:38a marketing deal with the best ball site. This is a good way to do it.
66:44God, dude, my tight ends are going to be bad on this team.
66:49My tight ends are going to be bad, bad.
66:53And I don't even really have a third quarterback to take either.
66:57What am I going to do, dude? What am I, what am I going to do?
67:03Is this, is this going to be a Dalton Schultz team?
67:08I think it is. I think this is going to be a Dalton.
67:13I just took Dalton Schultz on an FFPC 350 with, uh, Michael Shope.
67:18And I now just took Dalton Schultz for real American money.
67:22Yeah, there we go. Gordon starting for England is huge for me, Chris.
67:27That's big. Uh, but, but, but I believe, I believe they generally will do one deposit bonus match during hot best ball summer.
67:36And when they, when they do it, I mean, this would just be my opinion.
67:41Every time, every time that underdog offers me a deposit match bonus, I take it.
67:47I, I, that will, that will get me to spend my own money when they offer, when they offer the deposit match bonus.
67:56Are we getting any Taysom Hill spikes this season?
68:00I mean, doesn't it just feel like he probably is going to sign with Denver?
68:05Cause he, he got, he got released by the New Orleans saints.
68:10All right, let's recap this team. I kind of let the, I kind of lost the plot with these tight ends.
68:18Caleb Williams, Matt Stafford, Devin A-Chain, Kyron Williams, Ramondre Stevenson, Jonathan Brooks, St.
68:23Brown, Luther Burden, Devontae Adams, Josh Downs, Stefan Diggs, Omar Cooper Jr.
68:28Hunter Henry and Dalton Schultz. Sure. Such a, such a ball knower cannot lose value to inflation.
68:34If it's already been spent on a best ball mania.
68:38It's true. It's true. I, that's a, it's a, it's a great way to think about it.
68:45Hill to Denver would be worse than my worst nightmare.
68:49I mean, imagine trying to draft RJ Harvey when Taysom Hill is on the team.
68:54Sad, sad, really. All right. Well, I definitely want T Ferg to be my third wide receiver.
69:01Do I take Geno on this team? Where are we at?
69:05All right. Construction wise, three quarterbacks is the same.
69:09Five running backs is most optimal. Wow. 1% to the semifinals.
69:13I maybe have never seen that before. And then seven wide receivers.
69:18So two, six, seven, three has historically been the most optimal.
69:22All right. We're going to quarterbacks. We're going to do it.
69:26I'm going to take Sean Tucker, who is just a great pick and is a week 17 correlation with the Rams.
69:34I play a good amount of DFS, 130 tickets to the DK Millie maker, hoping to max it out with those and not spend that kind of money.
69:45And you're going to get a ton of rake back.
69:49They do the, they do the rake back on draft Kings as well.
69:54Just be glad to be locking my bankroll so I don't do anything responsible.
69:59It's actually a great point. Every time, every time you enter into a best ball draft, that is something else, something else you could be doing with it.
70:10Or, or keep, you know, that's keeping you from doing like a home run parlay or whatever.
70:17You know, if it's in a best ball draft, that money's gone.
70:21GM GM to my guy, fantasy football garage. Salute.
70:25All right, let's do, I mean, I got, I'm just going to take T-Ferg here because I can't, I can't lose T-Ferg on this team.
70:34It would be, it would be too painful to watch my guy T-Ferg go away here.
70:40Please don't snipe me, bro. Honestly, four, four tight end teams, I don't think are that bad.
70:47I mean, extremely hot take. I really don't think they're that bad.
70:52I, I think four tight end teams, even on underdog are, are fine.
70:57I mean, it's not going to, it's not going to look good in any of the historical data because there just aren't
71:05very many teams that have done it. All right, bang, T-Ferg, lock me in.
71:11What is my grade going to be? A minus, okay.
71:14A minus, C plus uniqueness, B ADP score, S tier advancement though.
71:19Yeah, give me, give me a bunch of S tier advancement scores, brother.
71:24What best ball streamers all have in common, the backwards hat.
71:28You know, what's funny is I actually would prefer to wear my hat forward, but you can't see my face.
71:36You know, it obscures the view, but some of these, some of these hats I have, I like them.
71:43I like the, I like the logos and stuff.
71:47I would prefer to wear them forward, but just to be on camera makes sense.
71:53You know what? Heart of heart of hearts, P Berg.
71:56I have been drafting blue. I have been, I think, I think Jaden blue is working his way into a standalone role actually with the Dallas Cowboys.
72:07There, there's been some good, some good pub Schottenheimer was talking about how much like he's like emotionally matured and whatnot.
72:15So you can't hate it. I think, I think there are much worse clicks on the board than Jaden blue, honestly.
72:23Well, really, really what I need to do is I need to, so my camera is up here.
72:30I need to devise a setup where my camera is right here, but it would, it is going to require some, some studio maxing.
72:39All right. How many likes are on this video, by the way?
72:44How many of you jabronis have liked this? Uh, 48 likes I'll do.
72:49I'll do one more draft. If we get to a hundred likes, one more draft for a hundred likes.
72:56You, you guys are, are blowing it though. 48 likes is abysmal dude.
73:01But if you, if we get to, if we get to a hundred, um, I'll do another one.
73:08But, uh, I really, I'm, I'm really actually going to be a stickler on it today.
73:14Cause I am hungry and I want to go hang out with my kid.
73:20Ooh, wide receiver, wide receiver, wide receiver. Uh, but, but, but, but, but, uh, I got to take someone Cooper cup.
73:28Where's Peter. Hey Pete, I just took your dream receiver brother.
73:32Yeah. Like the, like the stream. Uh, like the stream or I'm out of here.
73:38What do we, what do we got? What do we have?
73:4248 refresh 81. All right. 19 more. I'll do another one.
73:46Uh, how long have I been growing my hair out?
73:50I honestly don't remember the last time I got a haircut.
73:54But I don't remember. It's at least two years, at least two years, Colton, since I've gotten a haircut.
74:02Uh, wow. PPR Tyler. Tyler. BTJ is not back.
74:05Let me show you all his deep area targets on film and you will have 0%.
74:11Buddy. I bet you, I bet you that I won't care.
74:16I promise you. I won't care. You can, you can show me that sign, but I can't read Tyler.
74:23Uh, running back. I mean, I'm going to actually just take my highest, my high running back right here.
74:30And I'm going to take Katron Allen after that one blue game versus the giants.
74:36A hundred percent. Yes. He looked so good against the giants.
74:40He was awesome in that game. He, he was so, so good in that game.
74:46I can't believe, I can't believe there were people hating, um, after that performance.
74:52All right. How many, how many likes do we have?
74:55Let me go. Let me go check this. 95.
74:59All right. Five more. Five more. And we'll go do another one.
75:04Um, PPR Tyler, the goat people are saying it's true.
75:07We will all have BTJ because he's, uh, he is literally the better in best ball.
75:14It's true. All right. How many, I'm going to refresh one more time.
75:19How many do we have? 98. All right. Two more likes and I'll do another one.
75:25Fair is fair. Will, will PPR Tyler show me how to watch film for site credits?
75:31He might. I don't know. PPR Tyler probably trade.
75:34All right. This is a good question. Would PPR Tyler, would he rather have 500 site credits or a weekly Thursday afternoon stream with me?
75:44He can, he can come on the channel once, once every week on Thursday.
75:49Tyler answer. You can do, you can do a weekly stream with me.
75:54Uh, actually, no, sorry. Pointer. I'm going to do a pointer.
75:59You can, you can do a weekly stream with me for now until August or $500 in site credits.
76:06Jay Lynn, Jay Lynn. All right. Drafting out of the two slot with West coast is the best coast.
76:13RL, louder, pounder. Aris, tweezy man. Kale Elliott, Jimmy Chonga, raise it 77 off night.
76:19Read six, one, five. My guy, Charlie line of scrimmage and the moose.
76:2454. All right. Let's knock this one out, boys.
76:28Let's get after it. The Jaden blue. I remember had 75 yards and two touchdowns.
76:33Yeah. And, and looked like he was shot out of an absolute cannon in that game as well.
76:40Ooh, you know what? That's true. Stream with me.
76:44He does get half of the potential profit in all the drafts.
76:48That's, that's a lot of site credits. It would be more than $500 of site credits for sure.
76:55I mean, if we did, if we did one BBM now, I mean, Jake does make a good point.
77:03Theoretical profit, Jake theoretical profit. Uh, all right. So we're going to do another Bichon team here.
77:09Shipper shipper. Love that. Let's knock it out. Another Bichon team.
77:13Enjoy a good winter mix cauliflower and broccoli with a bit of butter.
77:19No butter for me, but yes. Weekly afternoon stream.
77:22And it's not close worth more than $500 site credits.
77:26Well, I don't, I don't, uh, have the ability to do that for you.
77:31So, so it smart of you, smart of you to answer this way, Tyler, because I am not tight enough with new
77:40me to offer you $500 in site credits. Very, very true.
77:44Sklansky box. Don't get inflated away. It's true. It's true.
77:48If you, if you eat some cauliflower, you are going to be farting.
77:53It's true. That's, that's real. Ooh. Who are the best picks in the pointer time box?
77:59I mean, in general, in time box contest, you want to be taking risers.
78:04You would, you would want to be taking guys who are like, what's more expensive than they are in best ball mania.
78:13That would kind of be, that would kind of be what you'd be trying to accomplish.
78:19So who, who has been big risers recently? Uh, AJ Brown is a big riser.
78:25Alave has been a riser. I'm trying to just scroll here.
78:29Scadaboo has been a riser. McLaurin. McLaurin's up half a round in the last month.
78:35Who else? Tyson has been a riser. Jadarian price has been a riser.
78:40I mean, yeah, in general, you would just want to think about it like that or guys who you think are going
78:48to be, um, guys who are going to fall and you don't, you want to get your exposure.
78:55Like I would, I would think, uh, neighbors would be a good pick.
79:00Yes. If you are an overlay chaser, if you are someone who cares about EV, these are going to be some of
79:09the biggest EV contests on underdog match day, mania, 11,000 entrance.
79:13Um, I mean, I've only done one. These are probably going to end up.
79:18This contest is going to could end up overlaying by like 50%.
79:23I think GM GM, Mr. Clutch takes happy to have you.
79:27My guys salute here. Always happy to welcome in a new viewer to the channel.
79:33Wow. My guy, the moose did the Ken Walker Bowers.
79:37Hey, ball, ball, no more moose. They're saying, I mean, I'm not going to get chase Brown, so I'm not even going
79:45to dream, but it would be, it would be fire.
79:49Yeah. Well, there he goes. And I'm not even going to get AJ Brown either.
79:55So I'm going to be taking George Pickens with my B.
79:59John George Pickens still has not reported to minicamp.
80:03Oh, AJ Brown. Sure. I guess, I guess I will take some AJ Brown.
80:08And then am I going to take McBride? Am I going to take Brees?
80:14I don't know. I guess probably Brees. Just kind of, I kind of just, well, you know what?
80:21Let's do it. Actually a little one, one, one, start B.
80:25John, AJ Brown and McBride to start this draft.
80:28I got May, who should be on this side of the board.
80:33I got Percet later. GMGM. Yes. The, the, the ideal, the ideal draft stream was pretty fun.
80:39I thought, I thought that was cool. That was, uh, that was my idea.
80:45You know, I bring, I bring a, a real clod slop flare to, to the ship chasing, uh, environment.
80:52Not everyone's into it. Some people, some people don't like the clod slop, which I don't blame them.
80:59I mean, I wouldn't, I would not want to be peddled, uh, slop either.
81:05Took the week 17 correlation out of the 12 hole.
81:08Gentian McBride. Yeah. Hey, that's back when I won BBM too.
81:13What a goat. What a goat name. What a goat name.
81:17Ooh. Yes. I mean, first off, I hope that the game does not get rained out tonight.
81:23Cause I have some home run wagers. I had a, I have, man, this is so degenant.
81:30I shouldn't even expose you guys to this stuff.
81:33They're probably like young impressionable people in this audience, but I had a Jack Caglione plus Aldrich pot jeter top 10, uh,
81:42each way at the RBC Canadian open. So the, uh, the Caglione Homer punched me right in the mouth.
81:49It was, it was beautiful. I I've been enjoying that.
81:53Although the, the, the fence movement in at Kaufman has not produced the dramatic home run results that we were sold for sure.
82:02I have found St. Brown running back, running back, Loveland wide receiver Williams.
82:07Yes. Uh, I mean, I literally just drafted that the first team on the stream and it is, it is very, very fun.
82:16Uh, my guy Reed six one five is doing the zero running back bit right now.
82:22Lamb London and rice. Godspeed to him. It has, you know what?
82:27To be fair, it has produced plenty of home run results for the opponents.
82:32Royals. Uh, yeah, about a month ago, I was feeling like I was like all my teams were the best in the world.
82:41Uh, the avalanche were going to win the cup.
82:44The thunder. We're going to win the NBA finals.
82:48The rows. We're going to make the playoffs. And then woof.
82:52Uh, yes, I did a full video with information on the world cup.
82:57If you have not seen it, uh, two videos actually.
83:01So I've got win 30 count underdog, how to play world cup best ball should be a good preview there.
83:09Well, we'll honestly, we'll get you kind of most of what you need to know.
83:15If you go, if you go check that one out.
83:18And then we also did a world cup preview on the school cast yesterday as well.
83:25I fell on the floor. Yes. I mean, Liam is Liam is one of the funniest guys alive and I'm looking forward to streaming with him tomorrow.
83:35Uh, yep. I'll take Trevion Henderson there. Easy. Wow.
83:38Huge Garrett Wilson fall here, by the way, Garrett Wilson, all the way to 45.
83:44Tootin goes at 42 goes at 40 to off night.
83:48He says, Davis, you're not getting tootin brother. That's not happening.
83:52I did. I did have Henry bolt last night.
83:56I sure did. I had Soderstrom last night was a good, was a good Homer night for me.
84:03Am I going to take waddle or J Mo here?
84:07I don't really care. Honestly, kind of both the same week 17 correlation with waddle and auto draft.
84:14Yeah, sure. Waddle. All right. Thanks. So we got B.
84:17John Henderson, AJ Brown, Jalen Waddle, Trey McBride, setting ourself up a little Drake may pick.
84:24Yes. I 20, 45 every 30 years. They're getting it done.
84:28Would I trade Gentie and Kyler for Lamar and Ken Walker?
84:32Uh, but, but, but, but, but, but no, no, I wouldn't.
84:36I think Gentie is too special. Personal opinion. Has an over under been set on how many times Liam tells us he won a poker tournament.
84:46Hey, I'd be telling you guys all the time too.
84:50Who do you find yourself clicking at a super high click?
84:54Uh, I don't know. Probably whoever I draft a lot of.
84:59I mean, Luther Burden. Luther Burden. I take a lot.
85:03Xavier Worthy. I take a lot. EB was saying today.
85:06Tootin is a goods. You're running back target. And I thought to sell brother.
85:12Tootin is going in round four in the sections of the draft.
85:16That's so funny. It's so true. All right. Who do I have drafted the most of burden?
85:23Helm. T Ferg. Ken Walker. Zachariah branch. Xavier Worthy.
85:26Patrick Mahomes. Keaton Mitchell. Eli Stowers. Travis Hunter. Rashi Rice.
85:30Jordan Tyson. You might be a slappy. There's, there's a chance I'm a slappy.
85:36Ooh. How are the dinger teams looking? I'm going to guess because no one has told me that I have a real good one.
85:45I'm going to guess they're probably not very good.
85:48D train. I think I only did like 20.
85:52But I'm going to guess they're not so great.
85:55Uh, MLB best ball. Ooh. Solo shot is barely sneaking through.
86:00Uh, I'm not up very many points though. This team looks okay.
86:04Vinny P doing fuck all. My guy PCA though.
86:08Randy Roser. Am I up? My outfield is kicking butt there.
86:12Uh, dinger. I did 24 and I'm only advancing four.
86:16Yeah. I mean, whatever. Can't be, can't be that bad.
86:20Uh, the Stowers stuff is from pre-draft. He was my, he was my most drafted guy pre-draft.
86:26How much of a bump is Eric the enemy back with the Chiefs?
86:31I am counting on it being a huge bump because I think Matt Nagy was terrible at his job.
86:39Uh, my percentage of two quarterback teams. Well, let's see.
86:42Let me flip it to just, let me remove the pre-draft.
86:47In 317 completed post-drafts, I'm 16% to quarterbacks. Um, this 8% for quarterbacks is from the super flex stuff.
86:54I would have to, I would have to un-star the super flex stuff.
86:59Yes. O'Neal Cruz, always one of my favorite clicks.
87:02Hoping, hoping he keeps it together. Wow. Trevor Lawrence at 68.
87:07Tweezy man is going bonkers here. All right. Well, let's get Drake May queued up and ready to go.
87:14Bang. Drake May. All right. This is all proceeding as I have foreseen right now.
87:20All right. And then do I take Lemon? Do I take Reed?
87:24Do I take Vermont? No. Maybe this is a Metcalf team.
87:29Maybe I get a little, oh no. You know what?
87:33I'm going to take, if this is a Corrine team, I'm going to take Jalen Warren.
87:39Drake May, B. John Robinson, Trevion Henderson, Jalen Warren, A.J.
87:43Brown, Jalen Waddle, and Trey McBride. This one is not bad.
87:47There is a new slap song. My guy, Buck St.
87:51Thomas. If you guys check out my guy, Buck St.
87:55Thomas on YouTube, who has been on this channel multiple times, Buck did a new one called If It Makes You Slappy.
88:03If It Makes You Slappy. You guys can check it out over at Buck St.
88:09Thomas Fantasy Football. It is pretty good. It is pretty good.
88:13Old enough to remember when KC was a great team.
88:17I'm not. I'm not old enough to remember it.
88:20I'm old enough to remember the 2000s. The 2010.
88:24Well, I'm old enough to remember the 2000s when they were god awful.
88:29One of the worst teams to disgrace the sport of baseball.
88:33I would love a video for you on the coaching change impacts.
88:38Hmm. I honestly, Michael, I'm probably not even the guy to do it.
88:43There are probably better fantasy football channels. I mean, I don't know that much about coaches.
88:49Again, I mean, I know enough. God, the Priest Holmes era.
88:53I mean, isn't it such a sad thing that we just, just, just missed out on Jamal Charles and Mahomes?
89:01I mean, can you imagine? Can you imagine Patrick Mahomes playing with Jamal Charles?
89:06Imagine if you will. Close your eyes. Patrick Mahomes.
89:10Jamal Charles. Tyreek Hill. Travis Kelsey. I mean, just to, just to think about that makes me, it honestly just makes me
89:18mad that it's not something that could exist in this physical universe.
89:23I hope that in an alternate universe, those guys were the same age and they would have gotten to play together because my God.
89:32That could have been, that could have been the greatest offense of all time.
89:38Jamal Charles was really different. He really was. He, that's, that's one running back where when his contract extension hit, I think
89:46even the nerds should have been like, you know what, man, we get it.
89:51Running backs might not matter, but Jamal Charles matters.
89:55Jamal Charles was, uh, was, was just different, man.
89:58It's true. It's true. Jamal Charles, Denver, Denver Bronco.
90:02We're about to see that with scat and dart.
90:05All right. Well, what do I want to, I mean, I definitely need at least one wide receiver.
90:12Oh, well, there are two wide receivers, both of, both of whom I quite like here.
90:18This is where my rankings start to get really off market.
90:23Um, I'm going to take worthy first, actually. Got it.
90:27Got it. You know, I don't want to have, I don't want to have rookie worthy numbers, bro.
90:33Yes. 16, 16 touchdown, uh, 16 touchdown Dwayne Bowe.
90:37People forget. People forget Dwayne Bowe once scored 16 touchdowns with, I believe.
90:42Man, who would have been the quarterback then? It wasn't, it wouldn't have been, would it have been Matt Castle?
90:50We're going to take downs. Would that have been Dwayne Bowe?
90:54I think, I think it was Matt Castle. 15 touchdowns for the 2010 Kansas city chiefs.
91:00And it was indeed Matt Castle, Brody Coyle and Tyler Palco.
91:04So Jamal Charles that season had 1900 scrimmage yards and only eight touchdowns because Thomas Jones also had a thousand scrimmage yards and six touchdowns.
91:14They don't make football players like that anymore, man.
91:17They don't do it like that. Zero tuds the following season.
91:22I fell asleep drafting a pointer last night and finished with a three, five, nine, one.
91:28Well, let me, let me tell you this is very important.
91:32This goes for you, Lutzen, and this goes for all of you.
91:37It's that time of year when we are drafting all of these teams.
91:42You got it. You got to go to your rankings.
91:46You got to go to the rankings page and you got to put in three, five, seven, three as your default roster.
91:54Am I in on craft this year? I mean, I don't, I am, I am neither in nor out on Tucker craft.
92:03I think Tucker craft is fine. I think, I think Tucker craft is, I I'm a little bit worried about the knee.
92:11I'm a little bit worried about the fact that all of his production comes on yak because yak tends to be one
92:20of the things that is just most noisy from year to year.
92:24Not that, not that he's bad or that he can't generate more yak, but it's, it's just kind of just, it tends to be harder to repeat.
92:35You get guys who will have great fantasy seasons based off yak and then struggle the, uh, the next year.
92:42I was, I was a little bit surprised that crane had not heard of Noah Khan.
92:48I mean, crane is a little bit older than me and I'm probably a little bit too old.
92:55I'm probably a smidgen too old to be listening to Noah Khan.
93:00Three, six, eight, three is also fine or a, for a max.
93:05I that's also fine, but you, you got it.
93:08You, you want it so that you still get a second tight end regardless.
93:14However, however you set it up, you want it so that you always get a second quarterback and you always get a second tight end.
93:23Very, very, uh, important being offered the one Oh four and the one 12 for Hampton.
93:29That is a, that is a terrible deal. Why do you, why do you want to get rid of a Mario and Hampton?
93:38That is a, I would not do that. Bops, not for me.
93:43Expand on the craft interest coming off that injury.
93:46I think that, I mean, I don't know. I guess I don't really know.
93:52I don't really know. I mean, generally ACL injuries just tend to not be that big of a deal these days, I guess is really the answer.
94:02Dang. Bo Nix actually almost made it back to me.
94:06Uh, all right. Rashad white is gone. I was actually going to reach across the aisle and take Rashad white here, but
94:14I'm going to take to Corey cross. He married again.
94:18Don't mind if I do second quarterback. Uh, you know what?
94:23I'm also going to do. I'm also going to do something else that I've been meaning to do more of.
94:30And I'm just going to take Malik Willis here and not even care.
94:35No, he is. He's not, he's not nearly as talented as Elliot Smith.
94:40I'm sure. I'm sure he would find that. I'm sure Noah Khan would find that to be very complimentary.
94:48All right. Malik Willis. So we've got Drake may Malik Willis, Bijan Robinson, Trevion Henderson, Jalen Warren, JCM, AJ Brown, Jalen Waddle,
94:56Xavier Worthy, Joshua Downs, and Trey McBride. Two and three quarterback, both 16% advance rates.
95:02Five running back is 15% historical. Six running back is 15% historical.
95:07Two, six, eight, two, actually, man. I kind of like taking the third tight end though.
95:13Kraft's teammate just came back from an ACL. It's true.
95:17It's true. Yeah. I'm not, I don't, I don't think Tucker craft is a bad play.
95:23I don't think Tucker craft is, um, like the, the goaded play.
95:27I know, I know some people really, really like Tucker craft.
95:32I, and I guess I, here's, here's a pretty good argument for Tucker craft.
95:37Look at who goes around him. Jaden Reed, Cortland Sutton, Jordan Addison, Rico Dowdle, QJ, Godwin, Menungai, Jonathan Brooks at 92 in
95:45this draft, by the way, have you stacked tight ends at all?
95:50Now that drafting three or four is common. I, I've drafted Goddard and Stowers together before.
95:56I think, actually, I think Coraine and I did that the other day.
96:01I, in fact, I know we did, we did it on a, we did it on a DK Millie.
96:09We, we did one together. And I, I, I would say, I mean, that's, that's probably the only team I would do it with.
96:18What other team would you consider? Stillers, maybe. Fryermuth and, and Washington.
96:23See, I, I think maybe at cost, I think I do probably like pits more than I like.
96:29I mean, craft went four rounds ahead of pits in this one.
96:34And I think I like that pits price better.
96:38Bowers and mayor. See, yeah, mayor. I, I get it.
96:41I'm not super into mayor. Mooney or fields is the giants wide receiver too.
96:47I mean, Mooney will, Mooney will, will be on the field.
96:51I mean, I don't think Mooney's very good. Steam on stripling and Antonio Williams is too much.
96:58Stripling is starting to fall again, though. Stripling, stripling was more expensive.
97:02Now, stripling is starting to, to fall. Hey, I don't blame you.
97:07If you don't want to give up on the idea of Michael mayor, I get it.
97:13Michael mayor was a very good college prospect. Michael mayor has looked good when he has been on the field.
97:21My, Michael mayor has been like whenever Bowers has been out, mayor has been like quite a good streaming tight end there.
97:29Their quarterback play should be better this year. I get it.
97:33I'm, I'm not castigating. I'm not castigating you for drafting Michael mayor.
97:38Do I want to take a third quarterback? What are we looking at here?
97:44But I want to take a third quarter. Cause I'm not going to take eight wide receivers and I'm probably not even going to take six running backs.
97:54So if I have Drake made Malik, Willis is it better for me to get Daniel Jones with downs?
98:02It is. I probably don't need three tight ends on this team.
98:06This is probably good at two. What is the prospect word on fields?
98:11I do not think he's a very good prospect at all.
98:16All right. We're going to take dimes. So we have Drake may Malik, Willis and Daniel Jones as our quarterbacks.
98:23I never really draft Hunter Henry. I didn't even really realize this is where his ADP was only 3.7% of Hunter Henry.
98:32Do I want none of these wide receivers really do anything for me?
98:37And none of these running backs really do anything for me either.
98:41Like all these wide receivers are, are all the same.
98:45All right. So we're going to take Hunter Henry with this next pick and get a stack.
98:52He also has a week 15 game against worthy and a week 17 game against Denver.
98:58All right. So a three, four, four, two, Mr.
99:01The flock duck does not like my draft. The mayor change of scenery is going to hit like so good.
99:09Michael mayor signs a two year, $16 million deal with the Kansas city chiefs and, and replaces Noah gray.
99:16I see St. Brown and Antonio Williams. I don't know about that.
99:21I, the Brandon I you saga is, is just starting to get annoying.
99:26I'm like the 49ers are annoying to me. The commanders are annoying to me.
99:32The, I mean, Brandon I you cause annoying everyone involved in the Shanahan's annoying.
99:37The 49ers beat writers are annoying. Whoever I use representation is.
99:41I don't think they are doing him any favors.
99:45Like what is going on, dude? It's, it's one of the, I can't really remember an analogous situation to this where a
99:53guy clearly wants to be traded and the team is instead of just like agreeing.
99:59Well, I guess I actually is kind of screwing himself in the situation because if he reports the 49ers are going to
100:07have to trade him because they do not want to be on the hook for his deal.
100:14The way I understand it and an NFL capologist could correct me on this, but the way I understand the Brandon situation
100:22is I you is actually doing the 49ers a favor right now by not reporting and by now the 49ers also screwed
100:31him with his rehab because I saw, I saw this that the 49ers demanded that I you rehab his knee injury in their facility.
100:40But there's been other like pretty high profile cases of the 49ers letting the other star players do whatever they want.
100:48Like I think what Bosa is the defensive player's name.
100:52He tore his ACL. They let Bosa like go to Australia or whatever, like go travel or go to Florida, wherever, wherever
101:01he lives and go do his rehab. They've let Kittle do whatever he's wanted with his rehab.
101:07So it's definitely a situation where the 49ers, I mean, ultimately this is what happened.
101:13Brandon Iuke didn't want to be a 49er and the 49ers didn't want Brandon Iuke to be a 49er, particularly Kyle Shanahan
101:21did not want him to be a 49er, but they didn't really have a better alternative because Debo left as well.
101:30So Debo's leaving. You have Ricky Pearsall who you can't count on to stay healthy.
101:35And what happened was they gave him this fair market deal that Brandon Iuke basically had to accept and Iuke didn't want to accept it.
101:45The 49ers didn't really want to give it to him.
101:49He puts pen to paper. Brandon Iuke immediately regrets it.
101:53Kyle Shanahan immediately regrets it. John Lynch immediately regrets it.
101:57So all parties are trying to get out of this deal.
102:01Iuke hurts his knee and the 49ers basically kind of scammed Brandon Iuke is what they did.
102:07They, you know, we've all had these situations in life where someone doesn't follow.
102:13Like we're, we're in a corporate structure and there's a rule that's written on paper that no one actually follows, but it's like a paper.
102:22It's like, oh, well you better cover your bases just in case.
102:27Like, I don't know. I'm trying, I've never had a corporate job.
102:32So I'm trying to think of an analogy, but it would be like, oh, like actually on Fridays, like we actually have
102:40this like all hands meeting, but like if you need to skip it or whatever, you need to go to the dentist or whatever.
102:49It's, it's fine. Uh, you know what? We're talking about Antonio Williams.
102:54Why not? We'll take Antonio Williams and you don't go to the meeting.
102:59And then one Friday, the big, big boss comes in and you're like, oh, well this meeting is not a big deal.
103:07Like no one ever comes there. It's like, well, actually now it is a big deal and you're screwed because you didn't
103:16come to the Friday all hands meeting that you were supposed to come to because you had to go to the dentist.
103:24And that's what the 49ers did to Brandon Iuke.
103:28They, they said like, oh, no, you did not follow your rehab.
103:33How we told you to do it. You didn't, you, you didn't, you didn't come to the facility.
103:40You didn't do this drill. You didn't do this.
103:43You didn't do our check-ins. And because of that, we're going to avoid the guarantees in your contract.
103:50And Brandon Iuke is thinking instead of, we're going to take Sean Tucker instead of fighting it, instead of trying to get
103:58his guaranteed money, instead of taking it to the NFL PA, Brandon Iuke goes, all right, bet, bet, void my guarantees.
104:07I'll take, I'll take the money that I already got from you guys and I'll go play for the commanders.
104:14Now that seems to have been a mistake. That seems to have been a big error on his part to void the guarantees and basically say whatever.
104:25Because if I go look at Brandon Iuke's boat track, he signed a four year, $120 million contract.
104:32But if I look at this $45 million got guaranteed at signing 26 million of the 2026 compensation, fully guaranteed.
104:39So there's an option. So there's a, there's also a per game active bonus that he's missing 2026 salary guarantees voided per 2025 settlement.
104:49So if I understand correctly by him, not showing up, he gives up all of this money.
104:55He gave up all of that money. Uh, have I read crossroads by Jonathan Franzen?
105:01Yes, I have Bob. And I don't know what this says about me, but I loved that book.
105:08Loved it. Thought it was incredible. Probably, probably read it in.
105:12Oh, I probably read that book in two days.
105:16Uh, and it was, it was so, so phenomenal.
105:19Uh, what are my thoughts on the Vikings QB battle there?
105:23There is no quarterback battle. Kyler, Kyler Murray is the starting quarterback for the Minnesota Vikings.
105:29Uh, and I don't even, I don't even really think it's close.
105:34All right. 2024 to 2025. We'll go, uh, minimum.
105:38What minimum 200 plays probably to get all of McCarthy EPA per play.
105:43Most recent two seasons, Kyler Murray, 16th in the NFL, slightly better than Dak, slightly better than Herbert JJ McCarthy.
105:50Uh, worse than Davis mills, worse than Anthony Richardson, worse than Jacoby Brissett, worse than Aiden O'Connell, worse than Gino.
105:58I don't think it's close. I think JJ stinks.
106:01Do I like Montgomery? He's fine. I, I have no strong feelings about David Montgomery.
106:07He's the lead running back of the Houston Texans.
106:11Ooh, Charlie's draft. Charlie does have an a Charlie has a, a plus advancement, a plus ADP score.
106:18He has got Jefferson cook, Javante Jacobs, Christian Watson, Jane Daniels, Jane Reed, Jordan Addison, Sam Laporta, Kyler Murray, Jake Ferguson, digs,
106:26Tajay Spears, Debo, big XB and Sowers. That might be the shipper.
106:31That's a really good team. Hey, no, no shame in reading slowly.
106:35Yosh. No, no shame in that. Some, some books I read quickly.
106:40Some books take, uh, quite a long time for me.
106:44Like if I'm reading like a philosophy book or something that, that takes a while.
106:50Uh, but, but, but, but, but wide receiver. Dude, should I take Brandon?
106:55Actually, I'm going to take tank though, who I'm behind on right now compared to the market.
107:01Like, uh, I'm reading right now. I'm reading the death of Socrates and I've been reading it.
107:08I've been reading it for like two weeks now.
107:11It's only like 200 pages, but you really have to sit and go through it.
107:17Uh, and now we're going to take Malik Washington.
107:21I think Mason likes, I think Mason likes Malik Washington.
107:24Uh, Jersey check. Hey, I'm gonna keep showing. This is, uh, Jeremy Lynn.
107:29It's not vintage cause it's a replica, but this was, this was purchased at the time.
107:36Uh, am I going to do any reading to prep for the Odyssey?
107:41I already, I already did it brother. In January, I read the Iliad and the Odyssey because I, I wanted to, I wanted to have it fresh.
107:51I wanted to have it ready to go and worthwhile.
107:55Honestly, you, this is going to be surprising to you, but, uh, uh, a 3000 year old book that is still being read.
108:04Turns out it slaps. Turns out it's still really good.
108:08I have two tight ends with a bi-week eight and one is 11.
108:13Do I go with the fourth tight ends? Go with God brother.
108:17I, I, I do not, I do not mind the four tight end stuff.
108:23I really don't. I think it's, I think it's basically fine.
108:27I, I, I try not to get too deep into the press conference where it's not guys talking about like roles and things like that.
108:37But the Kyler Murray, JJ press conferences this week were really funny.
108:41I mean, basically the way the Kyler one read to me was Kyler was basically saying like, I can't believe they're even giving this guy reps.
108:51Like the, like to me, I think the Kyler, the Kyler thing read like, dude, I like, I know what good football looks like.
109:00And JJ McCarthy ain't playing good football. I don't know.
109:04In some ways I kind of feel bad for JJ McCarthy.
109:09Cause he's just like become the butt of all these jokes and stuff, which is, you know, it's kind of sad for him.
109:17Wow, dude, this is actually kind of, this is actually kind of big news.
109:23Six days till Rashi Rice gets out of jail.
109:26That's kind of not nothing. Actually. If you really think about it, what, what are the, what are the haters going to say?
109:35Once he gets out of jail, he's not suspended.
109:39What are they going to say? Why do I feel like I'm the only one high on Chuba?
109:46I don't think he, I don't know if he won the job back.
109:51But if you're not, you, you probably, you probably are the only one you, you, you, I, I very few people are,
109:59are putting their name on that take. So you can, you can own that take.
110:05All right. Uh, but, but, but, but, but, uh, 16% advance rate with six running backs.
110:11You know what? No, I'm taking, I'm taking another wide receiver and I'm going to take Taequann Thornton, baby.
110:18Oh, rate. Yeah. My guy, my guy razor is definitely on, on Chuba for sure.
110:24There's, there's no doubt about that. All right. Final team, Drake, May, Malik, Willis, Daniel.
110:30Oh, the poor crying duck. Drake, May, Malik, Willis, Daniel Jones, B.
