Speaker 1: Welcome everybody to the Fantasy Pros Dynasty Fantasy Football Podcast,
Speaker 1: brought to you by Reality Sports Online. I'm your host,
Speaker 1: Scott Bogman. Follow me on the Twitter at Bogman Sports.
Speaker 1: I'm joined as always by Pat fitz Morris at fits
Speaker 1: Underscore f F on the Twitter Machine. And today we'll
Speaker 1: be bringing in a family episode a fellow Fantasy pros brother,
Speaker 1: Derek Brown at dbro Underscore f f B on the
Speaker 1: Twitter and we're gonna be doing a mock drafts a
Speaker 1: first year player draft. It's gonna be one quarterback PPR,
Speaker 1: all that good stuff. And Pat, you were at the draft,
Speaker 1: just really quickly before we dive in here, tell us
Speaker 1: what that experience was like. It seems like it's a
Speaker 1: lot of fun, but it seems also manic and crazy.
Speaker 1: It is manic and crazy, Bogman. It is the end
Speaker 1: person experience. I think is something every NFL fan should
Speaker 1: try to tick off their bucket list. But if you
Speaker 1: really like watching the telecast and getting the highlights and
Speaker 1: the analysis with all the picks, then maybe the in
Speaker 1: person draft is not for you. Because now it's funny
Speaker 1: you think back to those early days of the draft
Speaker 1: and it was like Jets fans aimed with like the
Speaker 1: Joel box bomb and the our lads, the guys under
Speaker 1: their shoulders and cigarette up there on the body exactly. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean that was for the hardcore draftnicks. And now
Speaker 1: it's like it's more like Halloween than an NFL experience,
Speaker 1: Like it's a it's about the pageantry, it's about the
Speaker 1: house band playing between picks, and you don't really get
Speaker 1: those highlights and all this stuff. I was telling you
Speaker 1: guys before the show. I didn't even find out about
Speaker 1: the AJ Brown trade. I was in the theater and
Speaker 1: I didn't find out about it until I left the
Speaker 1: theater on Thursday night. That's wild, Debro. Have you recovered yet?
Speaker 1: You guys? Streamed two days in a row. I did
Speaker 1: it right. D Alley stream three days in a row.
Speaker 1: It was exhausting. I slept for ten hours on Sunday,
Speaker 1: which felt great. But have you fully recuperated here? I'm
Speaker 1: finally back on my feet a little bit between the
Speaker 1: draft chaos and us really pumping on a ton of
Speaker 1: content over a Fantasy pros and then I woke up
Speaker 1: on Monday morning with the stomach bug, so like I
Speaker 1: was on the show yesterday. It was like I told
Speaker 1: you the guys yesterday, I was like, this is like
Speaker 1: my Michael Jordan flu game. Okay, like this is where
Speaker 1: I'm at and finally, finally somewhat recouped in a little
Speaker 1: bit back on my feet today. But it was it
Speaker 1: was crazy. It was awesome. I mean, all the trades
Speaker 1: we saw, all the different like craziness we saw with
Speaker 1: quarterbacks and how the draft really unfolded was amazing, and
Speaker 1: it was it was worth really the exhaustion, right, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean it was. It was a crazy three days.
Speaker 1: We're gonna get into it here in a second. Before
Speaker 1: we dive in, though, I gotta tell you we have

Speaker 1: this mock and the order is going to be super
Speaker 1: complicated here. It's gonna go dbro Pat Bogman, Dbro Pat
Speaker 1: Bogman all the way through and then snake back. So
Speaker 1: not too complicated here. But let's just first talk because
Speaker 1: my original idea when it came to mocking for this
Speaker 1: show was Okay, let's do a PPR and then let's
Speaker 1: do a super flex and kind of see how they differ. Well,
Speaker 1: we kind of don't need the super flex one because
Speaker 1: there was only one guy that went in the first
Speaker 1: two rounds, which I don't remember the last time that
Speaker 1: happened for QB's in a draft if ever, And you
Speaker 1: know Malik Willis and Matt Corrall and everybody else going
Speaker 1: in the Desmond Ritter going in the third round, Sam
Speaker 1: Howe falling all the way to the fifth round, falling
Speaker 1: behind Bailey Zappy. It was crazy. So Pat your thoughts
Speaker 1: and while you were watching this live, were you like
Speaker 1: what is happening? I wanted you had to have been
Speaker 1: clamoring for what are they saying about the quarterbacks dropping here?
Speaker 1: It must have been crazy from your ed right. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think as things went on, I was maybe a
Speaker 1: little less surprised at the first round went the way
Speaker 1: it did. I was a bit surprised that we did
Speaker 1: see Kenny Pickett go but before Malik Willis, I mean
Speaker 1: the joke with my buddies and I was that Malik
Speaker 1: Willis had had that sit down launch with Mike Tomlin
Speaker 1: and they had you know, wings or whatever, and like,
Speaker 1: did did Malik orders wings playing or like parmesan garlic
Speaker 1: something that like offended Mike Tomlin? Yeah, so boneless wings,
Speaker 1: which to the purest are a no go. So anyway,
Speaker 1: that's what we call those. Yeah, exactly so, um, but
Speaker 1: I mean to not see Willis go in the second
Speaker 1: round was just that drop my jaw. Yeah, I mean, debro.
Speaker 1: When you look at this, I feel like it's almost
Speaker 1: a philosophical difference now, like teams are saying, hey, look,
Speaker 1: we can succeed with average level quarterbacks if we surround
Speaker 1: them with a ton of talent. I kind of feel
Speaker 1: like that's what some teams are leaning towards, and that's
Speaker 1: why we saw the value of these qbs go way
Speaker 1: way down the board. Is that a sense that you're
Speaker 1: getting it or do you think it was just way
Speaker 1: just not a lot of talent in this QB class.
Speaker 1: I think it could be just, um, something as simple
Speaker 1: as as how the NFL. Maybe, I mean, this could
Speaker 1: be just an overreaction to last year's QB class with
Speaker 1: a lot of guys that were drafted with traits and
Speaker 1: things like that that basically had to play. Zach Wilson
Speaker 1: was bad, Trevor Lawrence was number one overall, it didn't
Speaker 1: look good, just the fields barely play and when he
Speaker 1: didn't even look good. Yeah, it still feels like an
Speaker 1: overreaction though, like the fact that, like Mike Wilson we
Speaker 1: were talking about before we turned the mics on, Malik
Speaker 1: Will was following all the way to the third round. Now,
Speaker 1: you could say what you will about like mac corral
Speaker 1: and Sam how Again and dres Been Ritter, all these
Speaker 1: quarterback prospects I was not high on, but for Malik
Speaker 1: Wills to file all the way to the third round, like,
Speaker 1: it's too much. It's too much, Yeah, I mean, like
Speaker 1: considering his traits, even if you're talking about him being
Speaker 1: a project. I mean the fact that like Jalen Hurts
Speaker 1: didn't even make it out of the second round a
Speaker 1: few years ago, and there were teams that were rebot on,
Speaker 1: like yeah, Drew Drew freaking Lock. I mends blank ab
Speaker 1: was a first round pick, but I mean that that's
Speaker 1: also an overreaction for a desperation at QB. So yeah, no,
Speaker 1: I mean like I feel like if the NFL we
Speaker 1: would have seen, like I was betting the unders on
Speaker 1: QB's taken in the first round, I thought it was
Speaker 1: gonna be maybe one, maybe two guys. But the thing
Speaker 1: about it is is that I feel like the NFL
Speaker 1: went too far. The other side of this for Picket
Speaker 1: to be the only quarterback that goes in the first round.
Speaker 1: And here's the other thing, here's the other caveat guys,
Speaker 1: if the Steelers didn't take Picket and they just decided, look,
Speaker 1: we're cool with Rbisky, we'll get by, where the hell
Speaker 1: would Kenny Pickett have gone in this draft? Like, would
Speaker 1: he have slipped at the second round? Would he have
Speaker 1: slipped at the third round? And all of these guys
Speaker 1: didn't go in the third round. So honestly, it feels
Speaker 1: like the NFL went a little bit too far to
Speaker 1: the left on this one. But again that's I'm sitting
Speaker 1: in my mom's basement right now talking about fantasy football,
Speaker 1: So you know, I mean, look, man, as a Steelers fan,
Speaker 1: seeing all those other QB's fall, it really made me mad.
Speaker 1: I was like, man, we could have taken Davante Wyatt
Speaker 1: or an offensive lineman, you know whoever in the first
Speaker 1: round and then waited and take him a leak Willis
Speaker 1: in the second round. So yeah, I was. I was
Speaker 1: fairly aggravated at the drop after Kenny Pickett. I also
Speaker 1: was a Willis over Pickett guy, soa Pickett wasn't very
Speaker 1: I mean, especially because it's Pittsburgh and he went to
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh and the Yensers are gonna want him to start
Speaker 1: immediately and then never want to cut him and all
Speaker 1: that good stuff. And I understand, you know, because like
Speaker 1: when Texas players go to the Steelers, I want them
Speaker 1: to succeed. Worked out great with Casey Hampton, so much
Speaker 1: with Lima Sweet, right, so you know there's in between.
Speaker 1: But let's get into this draft. Here. We've got three
Speaker 1: We're gonna do three rounds here. It's a dynasty PPR
Speaker 1: one QB. Like we mentioned at the top, de Bro,
Speaker 1: you are the I'm gonna we'll call you a guest,
Speaker 1: but you're really just the stepbrother that does a different show.
Speaker 1: So uh, you're you're number one overall. You have the
Speaker 1: number one Dynasty pick in a rookie draft. Who is
Speaker 1: it gonna be for you? I'm gonna go sideways here
Speaker 1: and I'm not gonna take Breeze Hall. I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: with the number one guy on my board, and that
Speaker 1: is Drake London. I think the landing spot is fantastic.
Speaker 1: It's exactly where I kept mocking him too to go
Speaker 1: to Atlanta. I think that he's gonna walk into a
Speaker 1: bevy of targets in your one. Arthur Smith is licking
Speaker 1: his chops with the fact that he just got a
Speaker 1: guy that he could use in the same ilk of
Speaker 1: a J. Brown from Tennessee. So or well, sorry, excuse
Speaker 1: me the Eagles, sorry Patton Eagles. Now, So with that,
Speaker 1: Drake London is is my clear one who one in
Speaker 1: this class PPR monster. He's absolutely gonna be great. Wouldn't
Speaker 1: be my number one UM wide receiver or player on
Speaker 1: my board, but the upside is there. You know, Calvin
Speaker 1: Ridley is not there. They don't have many offensive weapons
Speaker 1: right now. Um, a lot of love for Tyler Algier,
Speaker 1: which I know Debro is upset about and we will
Speaker 1: get to in a little bit. I saw your your
Speaker 1: Twitter rants there, Debro. But pat Um, you're up for
Speaker 1: pick number two. Before you pick, is Raike London number
Speaker 1: one on your board? He is number one among receivers,
Speaker 1: and he had been moved up there before the draft
Speaker 1: and his landing spot just sort of bolster that. So God,
Speaker 1: you al issue with him being the number one wide
Speaker 1: receiver for DBRO. All right, so your your pick is up.
Speaker 1: You're on the clock. Who's again. Yeah, it's it's still
Speaker 1: Breece Hall and number one overall for me. And uh,
Speaker 1: you know, I think we like the land ending spot
Speaker 1: even if we don't like it. If we're Michael Carter supporters,
Speaker 1: you know that pretty much torpedo to him. But I
Speaker 1: do think, yeah, exactly, wave goodbye to Michael Carter's value.
Speaker 1: So it's just a matter of how much work Bruce
Speaker 1: Hall is going to get. I think it's going to
Speaker 1: be a really substantial amount. At worst, he's going to
Speaker 1: be the majority guy in a committee. At worst, in
Speaker 1: an improving offense. So you know, maybe it's not the
Speaker 1: absolute perfect landing spot, but it's a decent one. It's
Speaker 1: not a Houston or Atlanta. You know, it's not one
Speaker 1: of those teams where you can see him walking getting
Speaker 1: three hundred touches, right, But this is an offense that
Speaker 1: is run first. That is what Lafleura does, That's what
Speaker 1: they did in San Francisco. He came over. He's a
Speaker 1: Shannahan disciple, debro. Breece Hall not everyone's favorite landing spot,
Speaker 1: but it definitely to me hurts Michael Carter more than
Speaker 1: it hurts Breeze Halls because Breecee Hall will be number
Speaker 1: one that's traded up for him. All that jazz um.
Speaker 1: So if you don't have if you've got a London
Speaker 1: one and you don't have Briefe one, how far down
Speaker 1: the list would Briefe be for you? Bruce is number
Speaker 1: five for me? Okay, I know everybody's rolling their eyes,
Speaker 1: and then you're second first. I get it. They last
Speaker 1: longer in dynasty, right, I mean, so I understand what
Speaker 1: you're saying. Well, and I still have Kenneth. We'll get
Speaker 1: about it. Well, we'll get to we'll get to it.
Speaker 1: I still Kenneth Walker over Breeze Hall. Okay, Well you
Speaker 1: might be happy with my next picked inn because I'm
Speaker 1: going to take Kenneth Walker at the number three pick
Speaker 1: right here. So I'm not happy with that. I wanted
Speaker 1: to take him, all right. Well, look, here's my rationale
Speaker 1: is that number one. Wide receivers are cheap in this draft? Right? Uh,
Speaker 1: they are cheap. There are a lot of them. There
Speaker 1: are a lot of good ones and a lot of
Speaker 1: good landing spots as well. So I love a ton
Speaker 1: of these wide receivers. Running backs not so much. I
Speaker 1: know that this isn't the best spot for Kenneth Walker
Speaker 1: to land. But there's a couple things to go into this.
Speaker 1: For me. Number one, I'm a rashad Penny Hayter, don't
Speaker 1: know why he went in the first round. Guy played
Speaker 1: ten games for the first time ever. I think since
Speaker 1: his rookie season last year. He's only started six games
Speaker 1: games in his career and they were all last season.
Speaker 1: He was very, very good at the end, but that
Speaker 1: is not going to wipe away how unhealthy this guy
Speaker 1: has been over his career to me. So number two,
Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker, to me, is going to be the focal
Speaker 1: point of this offense because Drew Locke is going to
Speaker 1: be throwing the ball Drew Locker Gino Smith, and that
Speaker 1: is not what you want. You want a running back
Speaker 1: that's going to get a massive amount of carries. I
Speaker 1: believe this is why they drafted Kenneth Walker, and they
Speaker 1: added two offensive tackles that would possibly start for them,
Speaker 1: and Cross and Abraham Lucas as well. So I feel
Speaker 1: like they are kind of trying to remake this offense
Speaker 1: as a run first offense. Now you have a two
Speaker 1: headed monster in Walker and Penny. It helps Penny two
Speaker 1: because he doesn't have to take all those carries and
Speaker 1: have more opportunities to get hurt. So I think they're
Speaker 1: going to use him a lot, and this is kind
Speaker 1: of a volume play for me. Plus the fact that
Speaker 1: the wide receivers are so cheap, and after these top
Speaker 1: two rbs, it gets fairly foggy. So pat your thoughts
Speaker 1: on Kenth Walker going three overall. Yeah, So I actually
Speaker 1: had that option of taking him number three overall in
Speaker 1: my first rookie draft of the year, and I actually
Speaker 1: went in a different direction. I guess I got cold
Speaker 1: feet at the end. Bugs, And we've talked about this,
Speaker 1: and I know I don't want to get into this
Speaker 1: with too much with Dbro because just because a guy
Speaker 1: did not catch passes as a running back in college
Speaker 1: does not mean he is incapable of that. And we've
Speaker 1: you know, talked about this, and we've seen it with
Speaker 1: some other guys like AJ Dillon going from a system
Speaker 1: where he can passes four nets and you know, becoming
Speaker 1: prolific ass catchers. Maybe not prolific with Dylan, but like
Speaker 1: showing that he was a competent pass catcher so far
Speaker 1: in Green Bay. So I get cold feet and went
Speaker 1: with a wide receiver. But I do like the pick.
Speaker 1: I think like Walker is you know, number three is
Speaker 1: where he comes into play and is probably going to
Speaker 1: be the chalk play there. I think I've seen some
Speaker 1: early rookie adp for Dynasty and it was Walker at
Speaker 1: one h three, and I really don't have any beef
Speaker 1: with that. Dee Bro, you said you had Kenneth Walker
Speaker 1: at three, so you're obviously in on this pick. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean I'm in on the pick. I mean the
Speaker 1: thing about it is, then people still have problems with
Speaker 1: the fact that I have Kenneth Walker over Breeze Hall.
Speaker 1: But one walking into the draft where we knew landing spots,
Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker is handedly the better rushing talent over Breeze Hall.
Speaker 1: Everybody gets to the passing game, and I've laid it
Speaker 1: out multiple times. I think the Breeze Hall's pass game
Speaker 1: usage and his abilities in that area are a little
Speaker 1: bit overstated. Like if you look at his yards per
Speaker 1: out run over the last three or four years, great,
Speaker 1: They're really not great. And the other thing about it
Speaker 1: is his pass protection. I mean, all these guys need
Speaker 1: to work on that. But I still have Kenneth Walker
Speaker 1: over Breeze Hall after the landing spots, because guess what,
Speaker 1: Breeze Hall has got to deal with Michael Carter for
Speaker 1: the next three seasons that period. Unless he gets hurt,
Speaker 1: he's gonna be there. And Michael Carter, regardless of what
Speaker 1: everybody says about his size, what have you, he is
Speaker 1: a really good receiving back, like really really good at
Speaker 1: catching the football. He could take routes away from Bruce Hall.
Speaker 1: We can't just say, Okay, they paid up and if
Speaker 1: this is the San Francisco type of system, then they
Speaker 1: used a lot of two backs. They used multiple backs
Speaker 1: in their system. We can't say that that's not in
Speaker 1: the range of outcomes for Breeze Hall. What I can
Speaker 1: tell you about Kenneth Walker is Rashot Penny's on a
Speaker 1: one year deal. Chris Carson from this draft pick. And
Speaker 1: unfortunately for Chris Carson, I say, I don't think we've
Speaker 1: ever seen him play another down on football. That makes
Speaker 1: me sad in my heart for Chris Carson as a
Speaker 1: player that I loved watching him play. Fantastic story, you know,
Speaker 1: for what he did. And then as well as Seattle
Speaker 1: giving him the second contract. You know, you love to
Speaker 1: see guys getting paid. But sadly enough, I don't think
Speaker 1: we see him play another down in the NFL. And
Speaker 1: so what are we talking about here, guys? Kenneth Walker
Speaker 1: is a rashad penny injury away from owning the backfield
Speaker 1: owning it. Like what, Travis Homer's gonna take snaps away
Speaker 1: from him? Come on? Please? Thanks child? Did you Dallas
Speaker 1: snaps away from him? Hell no, no, Miami running back,
Speaker 1: We'll take snaps from him, that's correct. Yeah, it's not
Speaker 1: gonna happen. Yeah, I'm I'm I'm with you. I like
Speaker 1: Hall over Walker. Just for the record, I think that,
Speaker 1: like like Pat mentioned for me, Bruce Hall is going
Speaker 1: to be the lead of a two back system, but
Speaker 1: they're run first, and that offense looks pretty good. Offense
Speaker 1: in Seattle with Drew Locke leading it right now doesn't
Speaker 1: it's not very encouraging, but the workload is there for Walker.
Speaker 1: All the running backs have short lifespans, so if you
Speaker 1: don't take one here, you're still gonna be looking for one.
Speaker 1: So that's kind of why I have those two rbs
Speaker 1: ahead of the wide receivers in my list. But de bro,
Speaker 1: you're backup for another pick. And pick number four in
Speaker 1: this mock, who's it going to be. I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: Jamison Williams, wide receiver out of Alabama. He is my
Speaker 1: number two overall player. I love his game. I don't
Speaker 1: care about the ACL. It wasn't a complicated ACL, like
Speaker 1: he didn't have other injuries or damage on top of that.
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna come back. He's gonna be fantastic.
Speaker 1: I don't care about the landing spot with Detroit because
Speaker 1: you're gonna trade up, You're gonna take a guy that high.
Speaker 1: He's gonna be the spearhead of your passing attack moving
Speaker 1: forward whenever he's healthy. I think the talent he could be.
Speaker 1: Him and Drake London are in a tier by themselves
Speaker 1: in my rankings, like I think both of them have
Speaker 1: Alpha type of upside. I love this pick. Jamison Williams
Speaker 1: is my number one wide receiver coming out of this class,
Speaker 1: and Jared Goff isn't the best. But now they have
Speaker 1: they signed DJ Shark. The Remember j T. J. Hawkinson
Speaker 1: was eighth overall pick a couple of seasons ago, DeAndre
Speaker 1: Swift and Jamal Williams in the backfield, and now you
Speaker 1: add in a threat like Jamison Williams this season, Mike
Speaker 1: is fairly clouded to see what he's going to end
Speaker 1: up doing. Like Debro said, he's coming off the ACL
Speaker 1: injury here, Pat, but he could be back by week
Speaker 1: seven if he starts on the pup and is able
Speaker 1: to work through this injury, because a CL's are no
Speaker 1: longer miss a full year for sure. Now it's like
Speaker 1: six seven months, you know, if you're a year, that's
Speaker 1: kind of a long recovery from an ACL injury at
Speaker 1: this point, which is strange to see, but advances a
Speaker 1: medical science and put us here, Pat. So what do
Speaker 1: you think about this, Jamison Williams pick? Yeah, So you
Speaker 1: guys like, I won't dismiss the possibility that he could
Speaker 1: be an alpha, as Debro was saying, but I don't
Speaker 1: know if we should dismiss the possibility that he's going
Speaker 1: to be more of a Deshaun Jackson type where he's
Speaker 1: not really an alpha, where he's more of a field
Speaker 1: stretcher type guy and turns in that sort of player.
Speaker 1: Then you add the fact that you're not going to
Speaker 1: be getting him for six games and at least at
Speaker 1: least six games, and the QB uncertainty with Detroit, So
Speaker 1: I guess that's what had me dropping him below some
Speaker 1: of the other first round receivers. But I really don't
Speaker 1: have a big beef with it. There's like not a
Speaker 1: lot of separation for me some of these first round receivers.
Speaker 1: I agree with that because I have you know, it's
Speaker 1: the two running backs in the next slew of whiteouts next,
Speaker 1: So you are up next, Pat, who is pick number
Speaker 1: five going to be here? Yeah? So this is the
Speaker 1: guy took it one oh three. In my other draft,
Speaker 1: I had a Kenneth Walker. It's Traylon Burkes and Boggs.
Speaker 1: You and I have had this mutual appreciation for him
Speaker 1: and his game and his toughness and everything. And maybe
Speaker 1: some people think he was used in sort of a
Speaker 1: gadgety way at Arkansas, but I don't know. I mean,
Speaker 1: like we had said, Arkansas's quarterbacking was such that it
Speaker 1: was necessary to scheme touches for Burks in unconventional ways.
Speaker 1: So this guy's a competitor. You know, even if the
Speaker 1: speed didn't show up at the combine, it shows up
Speaker 1: on film. And I mean, now the runway is very
Speaker 1: clear for him in Tennessee with AJ Brown out of
Speaker 1: the picture, and maybe he's something close to a one
Speaker 1: for one replacement for a J. Brown. Yeah, I'm upset
Speaker 1: about this pick because he was one hundred percent going
Speaker 1: to be my next selection here. And I'm with you, Pat,
Speaker 1: I love the landing spot in Tennessee. With no AJ Brown,
Speaker 1: you know, it's Derrick Henry or bust at this point,
Speaker 1: trailing Burks is a rookie Ryan Tannehill hasn't looked great
Speaker 1: without a J. Brown. Hopefully Burks is able to turn
Speaker 1: him around. Here. Is Burks the guy that you would
Speaker 1: have taken here? Debro And what do you think about it?
Speaker 1: This landing spot in Tennessee. I think the landing spot
Speaker 1: is the best best case scenario for him. I think
Speaker 1: it's fantastic for him because sidering his skill set and
Speaker 1: a lot of my concerns and alleviates a good bit
Speaker 1: of them. My worries still with Burkes come down to
Speaker 1: I think that he so The difference between him and
Speaker 1: the player that I have, actually a wide receiver that
Speaker 1: I have over him is I have Christian Watson over
Speaker 1: trail On Burks, GT over trail On Burks And a
Speaker 1: lot of this comes down to. I think Garrett Wilson
Speaker 1: is a supreme route runner. I think that he offers
Speaker 1: more yackability than even trail On Burks, like if you
Speaker 1: look at how he wins. I think Burks is a
Speaker 1: guy that I worry some about how his game transfers
Speaker 1: to the NFL. But the Tennessee Titans with a perfect
Speaker 1: landing spot for him, and I have bumped him up
Speaker 1: in my rankings considering that because his route running is
Speaker 1: a projection. But Tennessee I don't think is going to
Speaker 1: ask him to do a lot of those different things.
Speaker 1: They're going to basically say, Okay, here's a bunch of
Speaker 1: inbreak routes, here's screens, here's we're gonna put the ball
Speaker 1: in your hands, just like they did with A. J.
Speaker 1: Brown and his rookie season. So perfect landing spot for him,
Speaker 1: But I still got two guys above him, Pat Pat
Speaker 1: and I are gonna wholeheartedly disagree. We take on Burn.
Speaker 1: I was waiting for the the fact that Malik Willis
Speaker 1: could be starting for this team next season as well.
Speaker 1: I think bodes well for him because it's familiar. You know,
Speaker 1: he's used to a quarterback that's not very accurate and
Speaker 1: They will design ways to get the ball in his
Speaker 1: hands too. You can even stick him in the backfield
Speaker 1: and give Dereck Henry a little bit of a breather
Speaker 1: back there. So I'm way more excited for Burke's apparently
Speaker 1: than you are. But my I'm up for this next pick,
Speaker 1: and I am gonna go with the aforementioned Garrett Wilson
Speaker 1: from the New York Jets for a couple of reasons here.
Speaker 1: I know I've said that this is a run first team,
Speaker 1: and it is right. But I believe in Zach Wilson still.
Speaker 1: I know a lot of people don't a lot of
Speaker 1: people think, oh man, you know the Jets. They take
Speaker 1: Sam Darnold, he didn't work out. He's in Carolina. Now,
Speaker 1: now we'd take Sam Donald two point oh over here
Speaker 1: in Zach Wilson, and he didn't work out. But there
Speaker 1: were issues along the offensive line. Elijah Moore wasn't healthy
Speaker 1: the whole season. Corey Davis wasn't healthy the whole season.
Speaker 1: They didn't have a good receiving tight end. Now they
Speaker 1: signed u Zama, they have two backs. Now. McKay beck
Speaker 1: didn't slim down from his four hundred pounds. He showed
Speaker 1: up too as camp in camp last season. So I
Speaker 1: think with a good offensive line and good weapons, this
Speaker 1: is kind of what I was talking about with the
Speaker 1: thought process of taking quarterbacks later for a lot of
Speaker 1: teams is just surround your guys with talent. Miami did
Speaker 1: it by trading for you know, Tyreek Hill, The Raiders
Speaker 1: did it by trading for Davante Adams, and the Jets
Speaker 1: tried to do it by trading for Deebo Samuel. Didn't
Speaker 1: work out for them, But they take Garrett Wilson, who's
Speaker 1: a supreme talent. Like you said, the route running, the
Speaker 1: ability to get open deep and be a huge play threat.
Speaker 1: I love Garrett Wilson. Pat, what do you think about
Speaker 1: Garrett Wilson with the Jets in this pick here? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean also like the tightly bunched here bogs and
Speaker 1: Wilson is certainly in it. Uh. Don't dislike the landing spot.
Speaker 1: I kind of dislike it for Elijah Moore, but that's
Speaker 1: a different story. Um. Yeah, they're they're giving him weapons.
Speaker 1: And there was that comparison of what the Jets have
Speaker 1: done for Zach Wilson in the last couple of years
Speaker 1: as far as skill position, talent, adding Elijah Moore, Garrett Wilson,
Speaker 1: Michael Carter, Bruce Hall, Jeremy Rockart and compared to what
Speaker 1: the Bears have done with Villas Jones. So yeah, they're
Speaker 1: doing a nice job as surrounding Zach Wilson with talent,
Speaker 1: maybe making him a little more appealing in super flex
Speaker 1: dynasty formats. So I do like the landing spot for Wilson. No,
Speaker 1: no bias coming from from from the Packers here, Packers
Speaker 1: fan here, so at all about what the Bears have
Speaker 1: been doing. Uh, Debro, you already talked Garrett Wilson up
Speaker 1: a little bit. Any other points to make on him, No,
Speaker 1: I mean I kept mocking him too. The Jets and
Speaker 1: people will put London in that landing spot pre NFL draft.
Speaker 1: I just think Wilson is a perfect fit for what
Speaker 1: they want to do. Use him on crossers, get him
Speaker 1: into space and just let the guy just yak for days.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I love the landing spot. Yeah, I think
Speaker 1: it's great. So you are back up for pick number seven?
Speaker 1: Who is it going to be here? I mean, I'm
Speaker 1: just going to lean into Pat's packard him here. I'm
Speaker 1: going Christian Watson, Baby, I love Christian Watson. I have
Speaker 1: not moved off of this. I have been there, and
Speaker 1: this is not just a Senior Bowl thing. But I
Speaker 1: take a lot of issue when people talk about Christian
Speaker 1: Watson as being a really raw prospect, but they don't
Speaker 1: flip that to trail On Burks. I still contend that
Speaker 1: Christian Watson is the guy that everybody wants trail On
Speaker 1: Burks to be. But you understand that like Trailon Burks
Speaker 1: is out here doing it against the SEC and Christian
Speaker 1: Watson is doing against FCS opponents, and that has no
Speaker 1: bearing on the fact that he toasted, roasted, burnt every
Speaker 1: cornerback that lined up in one on One's sc your
Speaker 1: Bowl and better competition. Nobody could guard him the entire week.
Speaker 1: So seeing that up close and that I take issue
Speaker 1: when people talk about Christian Watson as it's just to me,
Speaker 1: it's lazy. When people are like, oh, he's the MVS replacement, Like, dude, No,
Speaker 1: this guy is way way better. Is he fast as hell? Yes,
Speaker 1: he's really fast. Is he a better wide receiver and
Speaker 1: more polished than a lot of people give him credit? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I do believe so. So I mean in fortune, I'm
Speaker 1: a wait TD bro, Because if we're gonna just say
Speaker 1: he's MVS, then why wouldn't we say he's Calvin Johnson, Right, Like,
Speaker 1: if you're just looking at body type and all that stuff,
Speaker 1: look at his relative athletic score. Look what he did
Speaker 1: in the combine he was so absolutely propoking about. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't like that at all, Pat Packers fan, They
Speaker 1: finally go out. I mean, the first round probably had
Speaker 1: you a little nervous, you know, because they didn't take
Speaker 1: that wide receiver there where everyone had projected them too.
Speaker 1: They wait till the second round. They still pick up
Speaker 1: a great one and Kristen Watson your thoughts and do
Speaker 1: you have Watson this high? Even as a Packers fan,
Speaker 1: I don't have Watson quite this high. But I like
Speaker 1: the pick. I'm not upset that they did not pay
Speaker 1: the exorbitant price they would have needed to pay to
Speaker 1: go up that high because we saw those six receivers
Speaker 1: taken from pick eighteen to pick. From pick eight to
Speaker 1: pick eighteen, six receivers came off the board. And you know,
Speaker 1: I knew when Jahan Dotson when sixteenth that like the
Speaker 1: price on receivers in the first round was just going
Speaker 1: to be too steep for them, So you know, rather
Speaker 1: than trade just a boatload of draft capital, they still
Speaker 1: give up two second round picks to move up to
Speaker 1: the top of the second But I was okay with
Speaker 1: the move. As Deebro mentioned, like the other Senior Bowl
Speaker 1: cornerbacks voted Watson like the best receiver in Mobile that week.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I think at worst he is a one
Speaker 1: for one replacement for MVS as a tall, fast receiver
Speaker 1: who's maybe had a little bit of issues with drops.
Speaker 1: That's his floor. Yeah, that's the dead floor. And you know,
Speaker 1: rather than pay what a ridiculous amount for MVS to
Speaker 1: resign with them, you get a cost controlled MVS for
Speaker 1: the cost to two later second round picks. I'm totally
Speaker 1: cool with that, and I like his upside obviously, the
Speaker 1: upside is significantly higher than Marquez Valdez scaling. Before we
Speaker 1: move on, I gotta do a read here. By now,
Speaker 1: most of you probably heard of Reality Sports Online, the
Speaker 1: powerful fantasy sports platform where owners get to build and
Speaker 1: manage their fantasy team like an NFL general manager. But
Speaker 1: the question is have you tried it? It's time to
Speaker 1: go see what all the buzz and diensy community is about.
Speaker 1: Red to see multi year contracts, a rookie draft, multi
Speaker 1: team trades, franchise tags, contract extensions, first round rookie options,
Speaker 1: automated contract and salarcap functionality, and much much more. I
Speaker 1: think it sounds complicated. It is not. The best thing
Speaker 1: about Reality Sports Online Fantasy Front Office is that it
Speaker 1: doesn't take any more time than a standard league requires
Speaker 1: more strategy. I think you're among the fantasy elite. Well,
Speaker 1: this is the platform to test your metal. Still not sure.
Speaker 1: You can test your general manager skills for free f
Speaker 1: RWE and a mock freedency auction. If you like what
Speaker 1: you see, use a promo code Fantasy Pros, or receive
Speaker 1: ten percent discount on your team or lead. Today fantasy
Speaker 1: just got real at Reality Sports online dot com. All right, fits,
Speaker 1: you are up for pick number eight here, who's it
Speaker 1: going to be? All Right? So, I know that maybe
Speaker 1: with the landing spot, this would have lifted some other guy,
Speaker 1: maybe ahead of this guy. But I'm sticking with Crystal
Speaker 1: Lava and I like the landing spot well enough. And
Speaker 1: we've talked about his route running. You know, the best
Speaker 1: route runner in the class and sub four or four speed,
Speaker 1: and I don't hate the fact that he's pairing with
Speaker 1: Jamis Winston, who is not shy about going down field
Speaker 1: with Yeah, you know a guy who's maybe in coverage,
Speaker 1: like he's willing to throw it up and let his
Speaker 1: guys go get it. So he's not really going to
Speaker 1: compete for the same targets that Michael Thomas is gonna get.
Speaker 1: So all he's gotta do is, you know, beat out
Speaker 1: Marquez Callaway in training camp. And uh, you know that
Speaker 1: those deep balls from Jamis belonging to Christal Lave. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I love this pick. I like this in terms of,
Speaker 1: you know, they traded up, so the guy is going
Speaker 1: to be starting from day one. Michael Thomas may not
Speaker 1: even end up on the Saints roster beginning this season.
Speaker 1: I mean probably will because if he was going to
Speaker 1: get traded most of the time those trades happen pre draft.
Speaker 1: But I'm not convinced. Some of these guys, I mean,
Speaker 1: Deebo could still end up being traded before the season started.
Speaker 1: A lot of other guys could end up being trades
Speaker 1: still too. But this guy comes in, he can be
Speaker 1: an immediate Number one for the Saints. So, Debro, do
Speaker 1: you have a couple other wide receivers ahead of Olave.
Speaker 1: Is he kind of at the bottom of this top
Speaker 1: end wide receivers here or do you have him right
Speaker 1: in this range? Right here, he's in the same range.
Speaker 1: I think you can make an easy well, an easy
Speaker 1: case love Pat laid out for Chris o Lave. I mean,
Speaker 1: whether you want to go draft capital, you want to
Speaker 1: go landing spot. I mean it's not crazy to say that.
Speaker 1: I mean, I had to go back and look at
Speaker 1: Michael Thomas's contract, but I'm pretty sure that the Saints
Speaker 1: can get out of it after this year. So you're
Speaker 1: looking at a player that maybe he's their number one
Speaker 1: next year. You know that that's not far fetched to say.
Speaker 1: Now I do have one wide receiver over Chris Alave,
Speaker 1: I'm kind of curious if you're gonna snipe me here, Bogs.
Speaker 1: You are you are? I knew you were because you're sharp.
Speaker 1: I knew it. I knew it was gonna happen. So
Speaker 1: why don't you just go ahead and lay out the
Speaker 1: love letter for the guy you're about to take and
Speaker 1: hurt my heart with it. Okay, Well, well, first of all,
Speaker 1: I don't have a love letter for this guy because
Speaker 1: I don't think I am as enthused as other people
Speaker 1: are about sky Moore, mainly for this season because I
Speaker 1: am taking sky Moore, the wide receiver from the Chiefs
Speaker 1: to pick number nine here, and I have him over
Speaker 1: Johan Dotson in Washington, which is a surprise because John
Speaker 1: Dotson went pick sixteen. But this is we're thinking dynasty here, right,
Speaker 1: We're thinking long term. And this is what I know
Speaker 1: about Skymore. I know that Skymore is going to be
Speaker 1: with Patrick Mahomes for the next four years of his
Speaker 1: career bottom line, right, So he's gonna be with Patrick
Speaker 1: Mahomes throwing him the football and they have wide receiver options.
Speaker 1: This is why in redraft I'm gonna be low on
Speaker 1: Skymore because I think it's going to be between sky
Speaker 1: Moore and Nicole Hardman to win this job. And Hardman
Speaker 1: they took as a project. And guess what, he has worked.
Speaker 1: This is a guy that has worked. He had very
Speaker 1: little experience at Georgia. He comes into the NFL, he
Speaker 1: has to sit behind a lot of guys. They get
Speaker 1: rid of Tyreek and now it's his time to step up.
Speaker 1: He made a bunch of plays in the playoffs as well,
Speaker 1: So I don't think Skymore comes in and is immediately
Speaker 1: a starter because they have MBS, because they have Juju
Speaker 1: Smith Schuster. So I think that third spot is going
Speaker 1: to come down between those two guys, and I'm not
Speaker 1: convinced that Skymore is immediately going to beat out Hardman. Now.
Speaker 1: I do think that he is a much better prospect
Speaker 1: than Hardman. I think he's a better all around player.
Speaker 1: But if you want him in the slot, you're gonna
Speaker 1: have to He's gonna have to adjust because he's spent
Speaker 1: his whole career playing outside of Western Michigan. So I
Speaker 1: think it's gonna take a year for Skymore to really
Speaker 1: give us these huge games. He'll have a couple of
Speaker 1: good ones this year, I'm sure, but I don't think
Speaker 1: he comes in and blows the world away like a
Speaker 1: lot of people think. But your long term future is
Speaker 1: a great wide receiver playing in the slot with Patrick Mahomes.
Speaker 1: It's a good place to be man, way better than
Speaker 1: being in Washington where Carson Wentz is your quarterback right now,
Speaker 1: and who the hell knows what's going on with the
Speaker 1: you know this franchise overall, and who's going to be
Speaker 1: the quarterback there in future seasons? So for me, it
Speaker 1: is skuy Moore with a little bit of you know,
Speaker 1: not so much the love letter so fits. What do
Speaker 1: you think about Skymore in the Chiefs going in this spot? Yeah,
Speaker 1: you summed it up pretty well. Bogs in an appealing
Speaker 1: landing spot, but not a slam dunk that he gets
Speaker 1: a really significant target share. It could be you know,
Speaker 1: more of a fourteen fifteen percent in year one. That
Speaker 1: wouldn't surprise me. But you know it's going to expand.
Speaker 1: And he's in a you know, great offense designed by
Speaker 1: the mad genius of the NFL. So like the outlook
Speaker 1: is pretty bright. Yeah, I mean de bro, I know
Speaker 1: you love him. I love him too. I'm pumping the
Speaker 1: brakes a little bit on Redraft, but for Dynasty he's
Speaker 1: got to go ahead of Dots, and I think he
Speaker 1: goes ahead of Dots, And for me, Um, I have
Speaker 1: him ahead of a Lava and Dotson for me and
Speaker 1: I love sky Moore. I went a long, long rant
Speaker 1: on our sister show about sky Moore, and I think
Speaker 1: that he's a fantastic player. I think that there's still
Speaker 1: another level of his game to be unlocked. He plays
Speaker 1: like a running back in the open field. There's so
Speaker 1: many parts of pieces to his game and the fact
Speaker 1: that the Chiefs took him this high. Being an early
Speaker 1: declarer from a small school you usually don't see like
Speaker 1: guys that come from this small school get this type
Speaker 1: of capital and being an early declare and Skymore checks
Speaker 1: so many different boxes for me, So I love him.
Speaker 1: I think that there there is a range of outcomes,
Speaker 1: and I know that I'm extremely high on him, so
Speaker 1: maybe you know I've got rose colored glasses, but I
Speaker 1: think that there is a range of outcomes where he's
Speaker 1: the number two this year behind Travis Kelsey. I'm not
Speaker 1: a big Juju Smith Schuster guy. I'm just not. I'm
Speaker 1: not a big Micole Hardman guy. I'm just not. I mean,
Speaker 1: I think that this draft pick says everything about what
Speaker 1: the Chiefs want to do and if they were sold
Speaker 1: on Harman, this is a This is a perfect scenario
Speaker 1: for Harman to step up and be the guy, and
Speaker 1: the Chiefs going in the second round with a wide
Speaker 1: receiver says that like they're like, well, he's just not that,
Speaker 1: you know. So just trying to read the tea leaves
Speaker 1: between free agency and the fact that they signed to
Speaker 1: other wide receivers, you know, but just trying to read
Speaker 1: the tea leaves of like what the team is telling
Speaker 1: us by the moves they made. So I love sky
Speaker 1: More my pick right here. So since I am up
Speaker 1: on the clock, is gonna be John Dotson. And the
Speaker 1: thing about it is is John Dotson, You're making a
Speaker 1: bet on draft capital and the is the landing spot. Fantastic. No,
Speaker 1: But the other part about this is if this team
Speaker 1: doesn't resign Terry McLaurin, like if they don't want to
Speaker 1: pony up the dough, we could see Johan Dotson, much
Speaker 1: like Chris Olave, be their number one as soon as
Speaker 1: maybe next year. So if Washington doesn't want to hand
Speaker 1: out this massive contract to Terry McLaurin, then John Dotson
Speaker 1: could be the number one. And I out the other
Speaker 1: thing about it when I wrote up Dotson for the
Speaker 1: Dynasty Rocky Draft Kit is that his quarterback play in
Speaker 1: college and a lot of these guys dealt with middling
Speaker 1: quarterback play, but his quarterback play in college was got awful, terrible,
Speaker 1: like Sean Clifford is bad. There are multiple routes where
Speaker 1: you see John Dotson wide open, he gets the ball,
Speaker 1: sails over his head, or it goes into Nomaan's land
Speaker 1: and he's he's breaking off routes and he's creating separation
Speaker 1: and the quarterback either holds the ball or sails it
Speaker 1: straight over his head. So there were so many instances
Speaker 1: of Johan dots and like yards left on the field,
Speaker 1: not because of Johan Dotson, because the quarterback play was
Speaker 1: just that got awful that I think that there's a
Speaker 1: range of outcomes where Johan Dotson could be a really
Speaker 1: really good value in Dynasty Ricky drafts, because we've seen
Speaker 1: he gets the Capitol and if he does walk into
Speaker 1: next season as Washington's number one wide receiver, the volume
Speaker 1: is gonna be there as well. Yeah, I mean, I'm
Speaker 1: I'm with you. As far as the bad play goes,
Speaker 1: I would have been it would have been interesting to
Speaker 1: me to see if Dotson went to the Chiefs right
Speaker 1: and Skymore went to Washington, because there's so many sky
Speaker 1: More truthers out there to see what the reaction would
Speaker 1: have been. But Skymore ends up in the best spot. Pat,
Speaker 1: Pat's your your thought on Johan Dotson going to the
Speaker 1: commanders here, and what do you think about his future?
Speaker 1: And do you have him or sky More ahead. I
Speaker 1: had sky Moore one spot ahead too, so yeah, and
Speaker 1: I bogs. You and I have talked about our appreciation
Speaker 1: for Johan Dotson and how competitive he is for a
Speaker 1: smaller guy, like going the way he fights for balls
Speaker 1: in the air, like reminiscent of Tyreek Hilly, and you know,
Speaker 1: just the pure speeding. As Debreou mentioned, you know, Dotson
Speaker 1: got a lot of practice on those high pointing, high
Speaker 1: pointing Aaron throws from Cliff with the big red Dog.
Speaker 1: So yeah, man, I really like the player. Not an
Speaker 1: ideal situation with the Washington quarterbacking and the presence of
Speaker 1: Terry McLaurin, at least for now, but um, you know,
Speaker 1: I still think he is a first obvious first round
Speaker 1: value in a rookie draft, you know, whether it's super
Speaker 1: flex or one quarterback. So I'll go ahead and make
Speaker 1: pick one twelve, and man, the wide receiver tier is
Speaker 1: starting to empty out here, so I'll speak in and
Speaker 1: grab George Pickens before okay, before the shelves are totally bare. No,
Speaker 1: you know, we've we know the knocks and Pickens. Maybe
Speaker 1: there's some concerns about you know, character and attitude, but man,
Speaker 1: This dude really talented. He's been beset by some injuries
Speaker 1: that maybe kept him from having the college career we
Speaker 1: thought he was going to have. But um, you know,
Speaker 1: there's a lot of potential. There's AJ Green potential here,
Speaker 1: So going for that AJ Green potential. I'm sure you
Speaker 1: didn't totally hate this pick as a Steelers fan. Oh no,
Speaker 1: obviously I like Pickens. You know, I talked him up
Speaker 1: a lot on this podcast and others this offseason, and
Speaker 1: this pick makes me nervous. I'll say that because the
Speaker 1: Steelers have had some locker rooms, you know, Antonio Brown,
Speaker 1: Levi on Bell. You know, there's been a lot of
Speaker 1: little things here and there in the Pittsburgh locker room
Speaker 1: to so to add a guy like this to a
Speaker 1: now younger offense is a little scary. But the talent
Speaker 1: is incredible there. He has that AJ Green in his
Speaker 1: prime type of upside. You're absolutely right, but he's a
Speaker 1: risk for sure. I mean he even looked like a
Speaker 1: weirdo when he got drafted. I'm not sure if you
Speaker 1: guys saw that video yet, but he looked very strange.
Speaker 1: So guy, he's a weird cat, but a great talent.
Speaker 1: Debro what do you think of Pickens here in this spot.
Speaker 1: I like him in this spot. I mean he's in
Speaker 1: the right here where he should be and stuff. I'm
Speaker 1: a little bit lower on Pickens that I think consensus is.
Speaker 1: I view his game a little bit differently than other people,
Speaker 1: considering his speed, in his his height. A lot of
Speaker 1: people look at him as a vertical threat. I don't
Speaker 1: think that's actually where he succeeds the best. Right now,
Speaker 1: you see him get bullied by some small corners. It's
Speaker 1: it's littered through his tape and have inconsistencies of the
Speaker 1: catch point is the massive ceiling there for Pickens, if
Speaker 1: he could put it all together, if he can shore
Speaker 1: up some of these areas of improvement, Yeah, it surely is,
Speaker 1: you know. And I think the other thing about this
Speaker 1: is that if Pickens and where he goes and Ricky
Speaker 1: drafts and I don't think people will equate the two
Speaker 1: of it. The two of it is that your thoughts
Speaker 1: on George Pickens are is also slightly married to your
Speaker 1: thoughts about Kenny Pickett, because if you, if you're higher
Speaker 1: on picketted, you think he's going to be an above
Speaker 1: average quarterback and support multiple weapons, then you're probably a
Speaker 1: little bit higher on George Pickens or vice versa, if
Speaker 1: you don't think that Kenny Picket's gonna be anything more
Speaker 1: than a league average starter. And then it's kind of
Speaker 1: like how many weapons can he support because there's a
Speaker 1: lot of people to sit here and feed targets too.
Speaker 1: Right now, you know, Deontay Johnson, even if he leaves
Speaker 1: in free agency after this year, still got Chase Claypool,
Speaker 1: you got Calvin Austin there, you got Pad Friar Muth,
Speaker 1: you got Nausea out of the backfield. So it's not like,
Speaker 1: you know, the target competition totally goes away. Although I
Speaker 1: do see the upside for George Pickens, but I find
Speaker 1: myself a little bit lower than consensus on him. And
Speaker 1: you know, Steelers have not extended Deante yet, so if
Speaker 1: that doesn't happen, Pickens could be seeing a lot more target,
Speaker 1: especially if Kenny Pickett is working out. Surprisingly, I had
Speaker 1: these two guys just ahead of Pickens in my ranks.
Speaker 1: Here my first pick at number twelve, the last pick
Speaker 1: in the first round, and I I take running back James
Speaker 1: Cook going to the Buffalo Bills. My reason for this
Speaker 1: selection here is because look, and I know that they
Speaker 1: even came out today and said that they see him
Speaker 1: as a receiving running back. Right they already at JD. Mckiszick.
Speaker 1: James Cook is gonna wipe JD McKissick off of this roster.
Speaker 1: I think I don't know if he'll make the team.
Speaker 1: McKissick is outstanding, or excuse me, Cook is outstanding. He's
Speaker 1: gonna be able to play in the slot if they want.
Speaker 1: He can play outside as a wide receiver, and he
Speaker 1: can play as running back. So third and Long is
Speaker 1: gonna be third and James Cook a lot season number two.
Speaker 1: He's way better than Devin Singletary in all aspects of
Speaker 1: his game. He's faster, he can catch better. I think
Speaker 1: he's better between the tackles. So I think that, you know,
Speaker 1: running backs are hard to come by in this draft.
Speaker 1: There's another. You know, there's a couple more that we
Speaker 1: do like, but they're hard to come by. So I
Speaker 1: gotta get one, especially if I'm on the end in
Speaker 1: this spot. So Cook is going to be one my
Speaker 1: second one. The first pick in the second round is
Speaker 1: going to be John Metchi, the wide receiver going to
Speaker 1: the Houston Texas of course, coming off the ACL surgery
Speaker 1: in December, but this is an opportunity for him to
Speaker 1: come in and be a number one, to be a
Speaker 1: possession guy for this team. Brandon Cook's probably gone after
Speaker 1: this season. Nico Collins is your big red zone type
Speaker 1: of target. They still need weapons on this team for
Speaker 1: Davis Mills, but building a report early in his career
Speaker 1: is going to be really, really solid for him. So
Speaker 1: we're gonna pick up the pace a little bit here
Speaker 1: in the second round. But before we do that, James
Speaker 1: Cook and Metchi, Pat you're your thoughts on those guys,
Speaker 1: you're muted. Yeah, So for Cookum, I agree, like he
Speaker 1: was the next running back who had to come off
Speaker 1: the board for sure, and I just like Pickings a
Speaker 1: little more there. That was kind of a close call. Um, Metchi,
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if I like as much as some
Speaker 1: other people, you know, maybe, just like I don't know,
Speaker 1: the athletic measurables aren't great. His last year at Alabama
Speaker 1: he averaged I think under twelve yards of catch, So
Speaker 1: I don't know if he's got the same sort of
Speaker 1: Jamison Williams explosiveness and you know, the landing spot. You know,
Speaker 1: maybe maybe Brandon Cook stays or maybe he goes. So
Speaker 1: he was a little high for me, but I don't
Speaker 1: totally hate it. I think I'm just a lot lower
Speaker 1: on Matchi than other people are. Gotchabro, what do you
Speaker 1: what do you think of Cooking and Metchi? Here, I'm
Speaker 1: lower on Metchi. I feel like that was more of
Speaker 1: a culture selection. As high as he went for the
Speaker 1: Hut and Texans. Then you have Cassario come out of
Speaker 1: here and say all this crap about like players and
Speaker 1: you know, marketing deals and like basically it's like it
Speaker 1: was a culture pick and it was a helmet pick.
Speaker 1: Like I don't think John Metchi deserved to go in
Speaker 1: the second round. Um. Personally, Um, it would be a
Speaker 1: little bit different for me with Metchi if we would
Speaker 1: have seen him, like he had every opportunity to be
Speaker 1: the number one wide receiver in Alabama this year, except
Speaker 1: a guy came off the streets and stole the role
Speaker 1: from him and excelled in it with Jamison Williams. So, UM,
Speaker 1: I think he's a solid player, but he's more of
Speaker 1: a floor pick than a ceiling pick as far as
Speaker 1: how I look at him. But the James Cook pick
Speaker 1: and I'll say this role fast because I know we
Speaker 1: got we gotta get moving. But with James Cook, everybody
Speaker 1: talks about him being just a receiving back and things
Speaker 1: like that. That's not bad for a team that's probably
Speaker 1: gonna throw the ball on sixty five percent of their
Speaker 1: plays and be top three in neutral script passing rates.
Speaker 1: If he is the passing down back on a team
Speaker 1: that says every single play, we're gonna throw the ball
Speaker 1: like that, that's fine. Steps Vacamara is also just receiving back,
Speaker 1: by the way, just so you know, that's that's what
Speaker 1: he was when he came out of Tennessee, and that
Speaker 1: is how James Cook is being viewed right now. All right,
Speaker 1: second pick in the second round, Pat, you are up
Speaker 1: after my matching pick. Who's it going to be? Yeah?
Speaker 1: So I think now we have to get to the
Speaker 1: point where we're sorting out these running backs. And for me,
Speaker 1: I kind of like Damian Pierce's landing spot. We have
Speaker 1: talked about his misuse at Florida under Dan mullen Um.
Speaker 1: I think there's considerable upside here and there's a chance
Speaker 1: for him to walk in right away and have a
Speaker 1: really sizeable load. I think everyone knew that Marlon Mack
Speaker 1: was not going to be the guy there. I think
Speaker 1: Pierce has a chance to be at least one A
Speaker 1: and a committee from day one. Yeah, Marlon Mack not
Speaker 1: making a lot of friends in Houston. Debro, you are
Speaker 1: up for the third pick in the second round. Who
Speaker 1: are you gonna take? Care? Love Pat's pick of Damian Pierce.
Speaker 1: That's one of my man crushes. I'm gonna stay on
Speaker 1: the Pierce train, and I'm gonna go Alec Pierce, wide
Speaker 1: receiver from Indie Colts. Look, he tested out out of
Speaker 1: the combine like he blew out the gym being a
Speaker 1: second round pick. Although I think there's a lot of
Speaker 1: things that he needs to clean up in his game
Speaker 1: as far as route running and being a better after
Speaker 1: the catch receiver and better on intermediate routes. The draft
Speaker 1: Capital tells us and the Colts love size, speed guys,
Speaker 1: So I'll take the shot on the draft capital and
Speaker 1: the talent. I like that pick a lot for me.
Speaker 1: My next pick is gonna be Kenny Pickett, the quarterback
Speaker 1: almost took him almost my Pittsburgh Steelers. I think this
Speaker 1: is kind of where you have to be involved and look,
Speaker 1: you know, maybe we don't like Kenny Pickett, but he's
Speaker 1: a first round pick, he's from Pittsburgh, sels I gotta
Speaker 1: give him a long leash. I mean a lot of
Speaker 1: stuff I read this week was about how they skipped
Speaker 1: on Dan Marino thirty nine years ago and they're still
Speaker 1: regretting it. So they're gonna give because Da Marino. I know, well, yeah,
Speaker 1: but they both went to Pittsburgh. That's the connection, right,
Speaker 1: So like and the Steelers skipped on Marino and didn't
Speaker 1: take him, and Marino is a Hall of Famer. So
Speaker 1: now the whole city is happy that they got their
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh guy. And look, even if you don't like him
Speaker 1: as much, think about what Kirk Cousins has going on
Speaker 1: in Minnesota right with all the talent it's surrounded around him.
Speaker 1: That's what the Steelers are trying to do. That's why
Speaker 1: they took pickings. They have Yon Thick, Claypool is there,
Speaker 1: they drafted Naji Freermouth, what was the second round pick
Speaker 1: last year. They're surrounding this dude with weapons. So even
Speaker 1: if he's a guy that's gonna throw short routes and
Speaker 1: the make everybody else do the work. That is how
Speaker 1: it's gonna be in Pittsburgh. Canny Pickett is the guy,
Speaker 1: So he is my pick here and we move on
Speaker 1: over to pat you are up again. Who's going to
Speaker 1: be in the second round. I'm gonna make a quick
Speaker 1: point about Pickett and Willis. I think in a super
Speaker 1: flex you have to take Pickett higher, and he's probably
Speaker 1: the only guy who deserves to go in the first round.
Speaker 1: But in a one QB I actually would take Willis
Speaker 1: over pick It because of the higher upside, you know,
Speaker 1: where you only have to fill that one QB position
Speaker 1: and there's not quite as much of a demand on it.
Speaker 1: I would personally take Willis. I know a lot of
Speaker 1: people are probably going to think I'm crazy for that
Speaker 1: after the NFL you know, gave him the big thumbs
Speaker 1: down like a you know, cruel Roman emperor. But anyway,
Speaker 1: so moving on to the pick at two oh five,
Speaker 1: I'm going to take Rashade Whites, who goes and could
Speaker 1: maybe be if anything were to ever happen to Leonard Fournatt,
Speaker 1: just a one for one replacement. I think the wild
Speaker 1: card like can he get on the field, can he
Speaker 1: pass block well enough that they trust him to, you know,
Speaker 1: block for Tom Brady, and I kind of think like
Speaker 1: that's one of the selling points of Rashad White's game,
Speaker 1: that he showed a willingness to do this. This guy's
Speaker 1: kind of a East you know, like a physical dude,
Speaker 1: and you know, like that's why some of these other guys,
Speaker 1: that's why Ronald Jones kind of never got a foothold
Speaker 1: that and he couldn't catch pass is. But like upside
Speaker 1: in the passing game gives Rashad White some traction. I
Speaker 1: think early in Tampa, I like the White pick um.
Speaker 1: I don't have him as high as you do, but
Speaker 1: I am a Leonard Fournette stand so I understand this
Speaker 1: pick uh, and I appreciate it. Dee bro, you just
Speaker 1: snipe me. I'm very aggregating. So who is your pick
Speaker 1: here in the second round? This is our guy too,
Speaker 1: I see bugs A love it. Um. Jalen Tolbert, my
Speaker 1: dude South Alabama. I mean, look, he got the draft
Speaker 1: capital I wanted. I thought he could have possibly snuck
Speaker 1: into the second round, but going to the Cowboys. Look,
Speaker 1: Michael Gallupa is not going to be probably healthy to
Speaker 1: start the season. I love Tolbert's game. Um, he tested fine.
Speaker 1: For what I thought he needed to do. He got
Speaker 1: decent enough draft capital. Um, Look, is it a perfect
Speaker 1: landing spot where he's gonna slot in as the number two? Yeah,
Speaker 1: you got see Lamb, you got Gallop there and stuff
Speaker 1: like that. But look, talent finds a way, and Jalen
Speaker 1: Tilbert's got talent and he's got to abiblity to earn targets.
Speaker 1: So I'll just take the draft capital and go with
Speaker 1: the talent. I think he's already better than Gallop, So
Speaker 1: even a healthy Gallop, Hey, shade for me, I think
Speaker 1: he's better than him. He's not gonna get doubled up
Speaker 1: because ceedee, Lamb's gonna get doubled up. Dalton Schultz also
Speaker 1: very good, So gonna see a lot on one on
Speaker 1: ones against some of these corners and make them look silly.
Speaker 1: So I love this pick. Hey, look, you know, Pat,
Speaker 1: you kind of made my point for me with this pick.
Speaker 1: I'm taking Malik Willis here. This is you know for
Speaker 1: this team. I would have Garrett Wilson the first round,
Speaker 1: Lake Wilson the second round. It's just the fact that
Speaker 1: there's so much talent there. The arm is there, the
Speaker 1: legs are there. You can't teach these things. Look at
Speaker 1: what Jalen Hurts is. Jalen Hurts isn't even a good
Speaker 1: NFL level quarterback, but because he runs, he has he
Speaker 1: has great fantasy value. You know. Look, I think he's
Speaker 1: above average. I wouldn't say he's great, right, That's what
Speaker 1: I would say. He's not in the upper tier of
Speaker 1: NFL quarterbacks. He's good, But I think with a little
Speaker 1: bit of seasoning, sitting behind Ryan Tannehill probably for two seasons,
Speaker 1: this is an investment pick that then Malik Wills can
Speaker 1: take over and be a huge weapon for the fantasy community.
Speaker 1: So I'm very excited about him. Even though he slipped
Speaker 1: to the third round, I still think he's got a
Speaker 1: ton of talent. So that is who I'm going with here,
Speaker 1: and that is going to put Pat back up here. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'll break the seal on tight ends with Trey McBride.
Speaker 1: Didn't totally love the landing spot because he's gonna go
Speaker 1: to where Zach Ertz is, which is not ideal. I mean,
Speaker 1: Ertz is getting up there. I think this is going
Speaker 1: to be his age thirty or thirty one season, you know,
Speaker 1: so not ideal. You're gonna have to sit in and wait.
Speaker 1: But I think even with the suboptimal landing spot that
Speaker 1: McBride is still the class of this tight end group. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I McBride. The land spot killed me because he's behind
Speaker 1: Not only is he behind Earth, but you don't use
Speaker 1: tight ends in an air raid type of system as much.
Speaker 1: Ertz and McBride are kind of the exceptions. But I
Speaker 1: don't know how much time he's going to see without
Speaker 1: zach ERT's injury this season. So also burned me. So
Speaker 1: d Bro your second to last pick in the second round,
Speaker 1: you are up, sir. I am gonna go with a guy,
Speaker 1: and I've got two guys. Really, they're in a similar tier.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the guy that I think is
Speaker 1: can earn a role walking easier walking into this season,
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna go with Isaiah Spiller, and I think
Speaker 1: a lot of people could expect him. The other guy
Speaker 1: that I have in this tier is going to be
Speaker 1: um Brian Robinson. But looking at landing spots and contracts
Speaker 1: and things of that nature, like I think Spiller and
Speaker 1: the Chargers have wanted a running mate for Austin Eckler.
Speaker 1: The fact that it is is that Larry Rountree was bad.
Speaker 1: He wasn't that guy Joshua Kelly as much as I
Speaker 1: liked him as a prospect. Yeah, Yeah, both of them
Speaker 1: were terrible. And I think the Chargers literally do not
Speaker 1: want to run Austin Ekeler in the ground. So I
Speaker 1: think Isaiah Spiller is going to have a role in
Speaker 1: year one. And the worries that I have with with
Speaker 1: Brian Robinson is that you still have Jad McKissick there
Speaker 1: for two years. You still have Antonio Gibson there for
Speaker 1: two seasons, So something has to happen to one of
Speaker 1: those guys because Gibson has the early downs and McKissick
Speaker 1: has the passing downs. So half of his rookie contract
Speaker 1: is blocked by these two guys. So that's where the
Speaker 1: tear break comes for me in splitting hairs between these
Speaker 1: two players. I think Spiller, despite having the fourth round
Speaker 1: capital versus the third, I think Spiller can have a
Speaker 1: role walking into year one. And if you don't believe
Speaker 1: that he has a role maybe entering year two, or
Speaker 1: he doesn't look great, you could probably flip him a
Speaker 1: little bit easier than Brian Robinson. Yeah, and I think
Speaker 1: I said McKissick on Buffalo earlier. I meant Duke Johnson
Speaker 1: because it was originally mckissic and then Duke Johnson. But
Speaker 1: I'm with you. It's funny because I don't have Spiller
Speaker 1: in this range. But Brian Robinson is going to be
Speaker 1: my pick here. And the reason I like Brian Robinson
Speaker 1: over a guy like Spiller is because I think this
Speaker 1: allows Washington to do what they want with Antonio Gibson.
Speaker 1: And I think if you keep giving Antonio Gibson those carries,
Speaker 1: it's a lot like what you just said about Austin Eccler.
Speaker 1: You don't want to run this guy into the ground.
Speaker 1: And Gibson had more experience a wide receiver coming out
Speaker 1: of Memphis than he did running back running back for
Speaker 1: one season, so he's way more experienced as a wide out.
Speaker 1: I think you take Gibson, you can put him in
Speaker 1: the spot slot. You can get both these guys on
Speaker 1: the field at the same time. Brian Robinson very underrated.
Speaker 1: I think it's similar to Josh Jacobs, who was a
Speaker 1: first rounder for the Raiders. I think because of you know,
Speaker 1: what is happening with running backs overall in the NFL,
Speaker 1: that he gets pushed down a little bit his value,
Speaker 1: and he you know, doesn't get take until the third
Speaker 1: in this draft. But I'm a big Brian Robinson fan,
Speaker 1: so I will take him here. Pat you're up for
Speaker 1: your last pick in the second round, blugman, I think
Speaker 1: you and I got some NFL draft vindication when we
Speaker 1: saw David bell sneak into round two. And you know,
Speaker 1: a guy some people thought might be a sixth or
Speaker 1: seventh round pick based on his pedestrian forty time and
Speaker 1: you know, not sintilating athletic testing. But this is a
Speaker 1: dude who you know, walked into West Lafayette, broke out
Speaker 1: as an eighteen year old freshman. Over his three year career,
Speaker 1: averaged better than a hundred yards a game and I
Speaker 1: think eight catches a game. Just a guy who was
Speaker 1: really productive and now a chance to be the starting
Speaker 1: slot right away with Jarvis Landry's still a free agent,
Speaker 1: looking like he's not going to resign. Goes to a
Speaker 1: good quarterback, going to play with Deshaun Watson, and I
Speaker 1: would not be shocked if he was second on the
Speaker 1: Browns and targets this year behind a Mauri Cooper. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean they are desperate for somebody to catch the ball.
Speaker 1: So David Bell being a potential pp OUR option could
Speaker 1: be huge this year. De bro, you are up for two,
Speaker 1: the last pick in the second round, first pick in
Speaker 1: the third round. Oh, this is a gross pick, but
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go ahead and make it. I'm gonna take
Speaker 1: a swing on draft capital here. As much as I'm
Speaker 1: not a fan of the player, and I'm not a
Speaker 1: fan of what the Patriots didn't in the draft, which
Speaker 1: was god awful, I'm gonna go Taekwon Thornton, wide receiver
Speaker 1: out of Baylor to the Patriots. I'm gonna take him
Speaker 1: here with my first pick. It really comes down to
Speaker 1: he's a second second round wide receiver and we get
Speaker 1: things wrong in Dynasty all the time, and if this
Speaker 1: happens to be one of those situations where we get
Speaker 1: it wrong and he ends up being better than we think,
Speaker 1: then basically we need to lean into the draft capital. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so he's my first pick. And then I can't even
Speaker 1: believe I'm doing this. I didn't realize I was doing
Speaker 1: it until we're sitting here on the show. But I'm
Speaker 1: gonna stay in New England and I'm gonna take my
Speaker 1: dude Pierre Strong, although again I hate this landing spot. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm in between him and a few other players like
Speaker 1: Darian Davis Price. Maybe, um, that's the other guy that
Speaker 1: I was considering possibly here. But again you're talking about
Speaker 1: we don't know what the forty nine ers are gonna do.
Speaker 1: Tarryen Davis Price could just be the new Trace Sermon
Speaker 1: and Kyle Shannon says I hate you too, and you
Speaker 1: go to the bish So who knows man? So he
Speaker 1: could be the lead back and Eli Mitch he could back. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that that's I mean. Terry Davis Price is a huge
Speaker 1: gamble because he went higher than pretty much everyone expected
Speaker 1: him to. I know, my boy Eric Proton was talking
Speaker 1: him up, but he's the only one I know that was.
Speaker 1: I never thought he was gonna be a third round pick. Ever, ever,
Speaker 1: ever ever. Yeah, I'm with you, so, Pat, you are
Speaker 1: up for your first pick in the third round. This
Speaker 1: team has hallam Bell, who he add into the squad. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I just gotta tweaked debro here and say that Pierre
Speaker 1: Strong is already twenty five by the time something opens
Speaker 1: up for him, and he's gonna be like thirty by
Speaker 1: the time there's any sort of a runway for him
Speaker 1: in New England. So I've seen that differ because running
Speaker 1: backs don't get hurt Pat. Yeah, come on, I've seen
Speaker 1: in the different places. And honestly, I thought his age
Speaker 1: was twenty three because um there was rumors out that
Speaker 1: thought he was twenty five. But unless I'm wrong, I
Speaker 1: think he's twenty three. I will have to check that. Man,
Speaker 1: I thought I saw yeah. I mean, look, we're talking
Speaker 1: about the Vilas Jones of running backs, you know, so
Speaker 1: he brows sweaking his math are so yeah, and I'm
Speaker 1: and I'm getting on Debro and I'm gonna take a
Speaker 1: guy who's torn both of his acls with Zamir White
Speaker 1: and so like, I know a lot of people hated
Speaker 1: that pick. I know Debro wasn't a fan from listening
Speaker 1: on the live stream. But we have an article that
Speaker 1: we're gonna fight about that it's coming up, that's right,
Speaker 1: And we know the Raiders just declined the fifth year
Speaker 1: option of Josh Jacobs, which is kind of a big deal.
Speaker 1: And like Zamir, this guy he is tough. Man. I
Speaker 1: know he's a two down grinder, but this guy's one
Speaker 1: like the most physical back possibly in this class. I mean,
Speaker 1: this dude is just uh, I don't know, like he's
Speaker 1: a competitor, and yes, he is a very specific role
Speaker 1: and it's a less valuable role in PPR. But hey,
Speaker 1: we're in the third round here in a one QB league,
Speaker 1: so I think there's some value at the top of
Speaker 1: the third I'm with you on Zamir White. I like
Speaker 1: him the landing spot not my favorite because Jacobs is
Speaker 1: in front of you of him, but like you said,
Speaker 1: it won't be on the team next year. It seems
Speaker 1: like unless they give him a they're gonna have to
Speaker 1: pay him way more than that fifth year option if
Speaker 1: they do want to keep him. So so we'll see.
Speaker 1: But from my pick here, I'm gonna take Desmond Ridder,
Speaker 1: the quarterback of the Falcons once again, a guy that
Speaker 1: is playing quarterback that is an athlete, probably first before
Speaker 1: he is a quarterback. But he can make plays with
Speaker 1: his legs if he does get the chance. And I
Speaker 1: know a lot of comps were to Marcus Mariota, but
Speaker 1: if he does get the chance to start this year,
Speaker 1: it's probably not good for his long term. Look, I
Speaker 1: want him to sit a year behind Mariota. Although you
Speaker 1: know the backup quarterback is the most popular guy in
Speaker 1: town all the time, so he could have some could
Speaker 1: have a little run this year. But this is another
Speaker 1: investment pick to see if there's any upside from a
Speaker 1: running quarterback. So Debro your second pick in the third round?
Speaker 1: Who you got? I'm in between two guys that I
Speaker 1: love here. I'm gonna go with the guy that I
Speaker 1: think got a little bit better landing spot and a
Speaker 1: guy that, look he tested out of the gym. I
Speaker 1: want to go with gilannie Woods, tied end that went
Speaker 1: to the Colts. And this comes down to Moiley Cox.
Speaker 1: Yes he's there, Kylin Granson's there. Yes, Frank Reich has
Speaker 1: used a committee of tight ends. Those are all things
Speaker 1: that are true. But mo Aali Cox, they can get
Speaker 1: out of his contract if it's not. It's not this season,
Speaker 1: but next he's gonna be thirty. I mean, jilannie Woods
Speaker 1: has the upside, the athleticism. I think Matt Ryan's at
Speaker 1: least an Indie for the next two seasons. So I mean, look,
Speaker 1: you're gonna tell me that they took a guy that's like,
Speaker 1: honestly like, could have broke a lot of different athletic
Speaker 1: models for the tight end position. Yeah, I'd take the
Speaker 1: swing on the upside. Bruce Feldman freak. I love Jely
Speaker 1: Woods like that pick a lot, Pat your next pick
Speaker 1: in the third round. This team's got Burkson McBride. All right.
Speaker 1: If our colleague Andrew Ericson watches this, he's gonna flip
Speaker 1: out because there a guy he loves who's still on
Speaker 1: the board and I'm gonna pass him yet again. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna take a guy I love, Khalil Shakier one some
Speaker 1: time to Josh Ellen and Buffalo Man. And I know
Speaker 1: they've got Jamison Crowder still there, like probably number one
Speaker 1: on the depth chart at slot guy. But like, I
Speaker 1: think Jamison Crowder has always been kind of overrated, and
Speaker 1: I think Shakier is gonna like go sailing by him
Speaker 1: in training camp. I mean, I just love this dude's competitiveness,
Speaker 1: A guy who was a captain as a junior and
Speaker 1: just like a total baller love the landing spot. And
Speaker 1: I think it's not gonna be long before James before
Speaker 1: Shakier is Josh Allen slot guy. First of all, how
Speaker 1: dare you on jameson Crowder? Hayde, We love Crowder here
Speaker 1: for PPR leagues, just a last round guy you can take.
Speaker 1: He's gonna get your seventy catches. Love Crowder, you know.
Speaker 1: And number two I think James Cooks. James cook takes
Speaker 1: a lot of that role in the slot as well.
Speaker 1: So I'm not as high on Shakier as you are,
Speaker 1: but I do love him. He's a guy who pointed
Speaker 1: out before we started this whole process here, I'm just
Speaker 1: gonna go ahead and do it. Give me Wandale Robinson,
Speaker 1: the wide receiver going to the New York Jets. I
Speaker 1: know that it's an issue or New York Giants, excuse me.
Speaker 1: I know it's an issue because you know, they have
Speaker 1: Kadarius Tony, who's pretty much Wandale Robinson, and so they
Speaker 1: already have that guy on the roster, and he was
Speaker 1: the first round pick last season. But Tony has requested
Speaker 1: a trade Number one and number two. This is a
Speaker 1: brand new coaching staff, whole new regime, all that good stuff,
Speaker 1: So they are absolutely not pot committed to Kadarius Tony
Speaker 1: at all. Another guy I think does not end up
Speaker 1: on the Giants roster at the beginning of the season.
Speaker 1: I think he gets traded for a later round pick
Speaker 1: because he cost us the stinking camp and Wanda Robinson
Speaker 1: can take that slot role from day one hopefully, and
Speaker 1: he's gonna spell a little bit of Saquan in the
Speaker 1: backfield too. Because they didn't draft a running back after
Speaker 1: interviewing every single one that was in this draft, I
Speaker 1: was kind of surprised to see that they didn't take one.
Speaker 1: So for me, Wanda Robinson, even though the landing spot
Speaker 1: looks bad, I'm still gonna bank on the talent. Dbro
Speaker 1: you are backup, who's it going to be here? I'm
Speaker 1: gonna take the other guy that I was talking about earlier.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take Terry on Davis Price. I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: with draft capital. I know the landing spot and I
Speaker 1: just said all these different things about San Francisco running backs,
Speaker 1: but it's a third round running back and he tested
Speaker 1: better than what you know, a lot of us thought
Speaker 1: that he was gonna test. So the fact that he
Speaker 1: ran under four or five, he's got the size. And
Speaker 1: at this point of the draft, I mean, you're looking
Speaker 1: at do you take shots on draft capital like you
Speaker 1: just did Bogs with the wide receiver position, do you
Speaker 1: go tight ends? Do you if you're gonna go with
Speaker 1: the running back position. You're looking at guys into the
Speaker 1: third or fourth round right now, So I'm just gonna
Speaker 1: take the guy off the top and basically in the
Speaker 1: best offense we have left and with the highest draft capital,
Speaker 1: that's where it's going. Third round. We're getting the dart
Speaker 1: throws for sure here, and I like that dart throwing
Speaker 1: Tierny Davis price because, like we said, we don't know
Speaker 1: what he's gonna end up being for the Niners. So
Speaker 1: I'm absolutely with you, pat This squad has got Olave
Speaker 1: and Rashad White. Who are you add into this bunch.
Speaker 1: I'm going with another running back and gonna make Andrew
Speaker 1: Ericson happy and take his guy Tyler Algier here. I mean,
Speaker 1: like I'm being talent agnostic here, somewhat like not one
Speaker 1: of my favorite backs in this class, But I don't
Speaker 1: know that I'm the best evaluator of running back talent.
Speaker 1: I do know that there is a clear runway for
Speaker 1: him in Atlanta, where it's basically just Cordarrel Patterson. They
Speaker 1: released Mike Davis. I mean, there's a chance for Algier
Speaker 1: to play a significant role right away. So I'm pretty
Speaker 1: much going for that path to instant playing time. I
Speaker 1: am torn on who to take in this spot, so
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna go ahead and do it. I like
Speaker 1: Romeo Dubs. I like the landing spot with Green Bay.
Speaker 1: I think there's ample opportunity to him for him to
Speaker 1: be the deep threat on this team, you know, and
Speaker 1: I know we're gonna want Watson to get a lot
Speaker 1: of those deep balls and everything. But Dubs is a
Speaker 1: guy that was open for Carson Strong a ton. We
Speaker 1: know Carson Strong wasn't shifting around and scrambling a lot.
Speaker 1: So these are pretty clean routes that Romeo Dubs is
Speaker 1: running as well. So I think that Aaron Rodgers is
Speaker 1: going to really like this guy from day one. So
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Romeo Dubs here, and that puts
Speaker 1: Debro back on the clock for your last pick here,
Speaker 1: Who's it going to be? Look, if I'm in a
Speaker 1: draft and I have a third round pick, I'm trying
Speaker 1: not to leave the draft with this. This is one
Speaker 1: of my guys. I've been pounding the table for him religiously.
Speaker 1: The landing spot was not what I wanted, considering they
Speaker 1: signed two tight ends that are under contract for the
Speaker 1: next two years. But take your guys. When you get
Speaker 1: to this point of a dynasty rookie draft, go with
Speaker 1: the guys that you like the talent, and say to
Speaker 1: hell with the landing spot. Follow the draft capital fall
Speaker 1: a talent. Give me Jeremy Rutgerd from Ohio State. Um.
Speaker 1: I love him. Yeah, I love Jeremy Ruckert. And this
Speaker 1: as much as I crapped on the Tyler I's year pick,
Speaker 1: this one make my dude ericson happy um because we
Speaker 1: both um. I think we bet him second or third
Speaker 1: tight end off the board in the draft, and I
Speaker 1: think that he is going to have a very very productive,
Speaker 1: a better career as a pro than he did at
Speaker 1: Ohio State. Yeah. I mean that. It's a very interesting
Speaker 1: pick here. I like Ruckert a lot. He ends up
Speaker 1: in his hometown team too, which he always I always
Speaker 1: kind of like to see that stuff when a guy
Speaker 1: ends up on a team that he grew up rooting for.
Speaker 1: Pat you're up for your last pick. Who is your
Speaker 1: last pick of this market to be debro said it,
Speaker 1: get your guys, So I'm gonna go for Tyler Batty,
Speaker 1: the guy we talked about. It's kind of being a
Speaker 1: sneaky guy who goes to a run heavy team in Baltimore,
Speaker 1: and you know we got their lead guy Dobbins coming
Speaker 1: off a major injury. I've always thought Gus Edwards foothold
Speaker 1: in the NFL was a little bit uncertain. So you know,
Speaker 1: Batty was a guy who just got it done even
Speaker 1: when SEC teams knew who Missouri was getting the ball too,
Speaker 1: because they had no one else in that offense. And
Speaker 1: you know, Batty's still sure not the yardage and kind
Speaker 1: of high volume and carry. So I don't think he's
Speaker 1: gonna be a heavy duty guy in the NFL like
Speaker 1: he was at Missoo, But you know, I think he
Speaker 1: could be successful. Give the running the Ravens one running
Speaker 1: back that can catch the ball on a consistent basis too,
Speaker 1: because it's not something that they have had. I know
Speaker 1: Dobbins has not been that guy so far, although I
Speaker 1: really want him to be last pick of this draft.
Speaker 1: Pat just said it, get your guys. I gonna take
Speaker 1: Ty Chandler, the running back in North Carolina. What I've
Speaker 1: been saying about him the whole offseason is this guy's
Speaker 1: Willie Parker. If he could catch so and run routes,
Speaker 1: so Annie can return kicks for you. And Alexander Madison
Speaker 1: is gone from this team after this year because they
Speaker 1: gave Dalvin Cook the extension. This is more of a
Speaker 1: if you if you are rostering Dalvin Cook, you want
Speaker 1: a draft tie Chandler to have the handcuff in a
Speaker 1: dynasty league because running back position is brutal. We've seen
Speaker 1: Cook go down before Madison has stepped up. This is
Speaker 1: a you know, probably still going to be a run
Speaker 1: first team. So I really like Tie Chandler ending up
Speaker 1: in Minnesota if he wasn't going to go in the
Speaker 1: top three rounds. So, uh, that is going to wrap
Speaker 1: it up for us d bro your final thoughts on
Speaker 1: this mock and um, you know, anyone, is it crazy
Speaker 1: to be doing your rookie draft this early? Shouldn't you
Speaker 1: be waiting until like after at least rookie camp or anything. No,
Speaker 1: I've got four rookie drafts that are going on as
Speaker 1: we speak. They kicked off. I come on, man, like
Speaker 1: I got I got three more that are gonna start
Speaker 1: within the next three But I'm also practical. I want
Speaker 1: to wait. I mean not well, we're not even gonna
Speaker 1: go down the DJ and rabbit hole because I had
Speaker 1: two rookie drafts that were before the NFL drafts, so uh, look,
Speaker 1: I'm here for all of them. Ox guys, this was fantastic.
Speaker 1: I love all the analysis on the players that we
Speaker 1: went for, and yeah, when it comes down to it,
Speaker 1: you get in these metal rounds, take the shots on
Speaker 1: the guys that you believe in, and honestly, if you're
Speaker 1: gonna be layering the back end of the bottom of
Speaker 1: your roster with taxi squad guys, go with a lot
Speaker 1: of these running backs because we see the injuries and
Speaker 1: you see guys like Elijah Mitchell and other guys from
Speaker 1: previous seasons hit. So even if they're not the long
Speaker 1: term answer, flip them, flip them in a trade and
Speaker 1: get yourself a pick back in twenty twenty three or
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four where you're like, hey, I just created
Speaker 1: equity for my dynasty team. I took a fourth round
Speaker 1: pick and I turned it into a second round pick.
Speaker 1: That's called a w people. That's right, exactly right. I
Speaker 1: love that thought process. Pat your thoughts on your final
Speaker 1: thoughts on this mock and moving forward with this rookie class. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm with debro scratch that edge. To the rookie drafts
Speaker 1: early unpictable. We saw some some prizes, get your guy.
Speaker 1: I don't be completely beholden to draft capital because you know,
Speaker 1: sometimes we've seen look at how many bad receivers the
Speaker 1: Patriots a drafted like the early rounds before. So you
Speaker 1: know it's possible we know more than the Patriots do.
Speaker 1: And you know, based on this past draft, I think
Speaker 1: there's a good chance that's the case. So yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean even even Joe said it for his Patriots, he said,
Speaker 1: I think Belichick is just an old man at the
Speaker 1: wheel of a car at this point, so I think
Speaker 1: he let drive in anymore. So I think he let
Speaker 1: his dog Nike do the drafting this year. I think
Speaker 1: Nibe was a computer Nike doing my job. Patricia and
Speaker 1: Judge took over the room. They kicked him out and
Speaker 1: locked him outside. And you can find that voice at
Speaker 1: debro underscore FB on the Twitter. Debro, what is coming
Speaker 1: up for you and what should we all be paying
Speaker 1: attention for? Yeah, I mean right now I'm updating all
Speaker 1: the Dynasty profiles and the our Dynasty rookie draft kits,
Speaker 1: so check out those, um and yeah, I mean obviously
Speaker 1: all my content could be found a Fantasy Pros. So
Speaker 1: going through the ranks, I'm still tweaking. I mean, you know,
Speaker 1: we all updated our ranks, but still as you have
Speaker 1: time to let some of this stuff kind of like
Speaker 1: simmer and marinate and get even spicier inside your head,
Speaker 1: then I'm constantly tweaking the ranks, both super flex and
Speaker 1: rookie ranks over Fantasy Pros. That's why I want to wait, too,
Speaker 1: because I want to hear what some of these coaches
Speaker 1: have to say. How these guys looking rookie minicamp, see
Speaker 1: if there's an injury that pops up too that can
Speaker 1: make tggerger. I know, look, I'll be doing some drafts
Speaker 1: pretty soon here dangerously, but I want to wait. But
Speaker 1: pat at fits underscore f F what do we got
Speaker 1: coming up for you? As Debro said, we're constantly tinkering
Speaker 1: with these rankings post draft, and we've got this Bestball
Speaker 1: draft kit coming out. So the degenerate multi draft players
Speaker 1: who do a lot of best Ball, they're gonna want
Speaker 1: to check this out. Yeah, so come down to Fantasy

Speaker 1: on the Best Ball than you. Rookie drafts right now.
