  Speaker 1: We did it the drafts are in the can all
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: three of our leagues are done we drafted our teams
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: who did we get let's break it all down for you.
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: Did every guy on your bench go off? Did you
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: decide to set your top scorer because you had a hunch?
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: Did your drafting a kicker in the first round strategy
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: not pay off?
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: Then this is the show for you.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: Now here to help you set your lineups every week,
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: it's Eddie and Thor with Fantasy Frickin' Football.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: Well, obviously, it depends when you're listening to this, but
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: tonight is the night. You know, we're doing this on Wednesday,
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: and tonight is opening night of the NFL season, so
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: we've got Seahawks, Patriots tonight. Crazy that it's here already,
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: and you've got to set your lineups, and you've got
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: to start thinking about all this stuff.
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's awesome.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: Look at the waiver wire. Like, okay, already? After a draft?
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: But yeah, man, we did our drafts. Now, we're both
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: in two leagues together, and then we have separate leagues
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: that we do as well, so It gets to be
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: a lot, to be honest with you, where you got
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: so many different teams going on. Now, weirdly enough, in
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: two of my leagues, I had the exact same spot
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: I was drafting. I was in the nine spot. And
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: so kind of weird. And I'm also like, I wanted
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: to kind of take different players because I was like,
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: I don't want the same team. But weirdly, when you're
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: in that spot, the guys that you drafted in the
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: first league were kind of end up being there in
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: the second league because it's all around the same spots.
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: I had to tell myself, is this guy worth having
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: in two different leagues enough? That was the decisions that
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: I was having to make in both of those leagues.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: Then I did my last draft was my OG league
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: that I've been in in 27 years. That league is
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: a little different, scored differently A bunch of old guys
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: who don't really know football anymore. And so that league,
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: I ended up drafting in the sixth spot. So I
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: was right dead set in the middle, which I kind
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: of like because I don't have to wait too long
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: both ways. But you're also not getting the best or
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: the worst. It's kind of a weird spot, but I
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: don't mind it. So I actually prefer sixth than ninth.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Ninth is awful. I was not happy about that, but
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: it was. What spots did you get?
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: I ended up in the three leagues I'm in, one, four,
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: and 11. 1, 4, and 11.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: Well, those are wildly different.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, 1 and 4, you kind of have some of
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: the same guys. 11 is completely different. 11 is just
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: totally different. I actually like 11 and 12 or 1
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: and 2.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: I know a lot of people do because of the snake.
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I actually like that because with 11 and 1,
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: you could really– one of the strategies I used this
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: year that I hadn't really used in the past is
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: I was really focusing on everyone else's draft. So if
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: I'm at 11 and I know I'm not picking for
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: a while, I start to look and I say, okay,
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: about seven of these 10 teams or nine of these
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: 11 teams have tight ends. So I could go, okay,
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: I'm not going to pick this tight end now because
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: I know when it comes back, I should get this
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: tight end that I want.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: Oh, you don't normally do that?
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: No.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: I always do that. I wasn't doing that.
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: I wasn't looking at other teams.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: Depending on positions.
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, depending on positions. Or like, okay, this person has
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: four receivers, so I'm not going to reach. Because sometimes
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: if you're at 11 or 1, you kind of have
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: to reach for a guy if you want that guy. Yeah,
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: of course. So that's what I was doing this time.
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I do that quite often. I did that last
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: night in my OG league with quarterbacks.
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Because quarterback, all of them went pretty early. And I
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: was like, all right, well, I kind of know that
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: me and like one other guy, new quarterback. So I
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: don't really have to. I'm going to end up with
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: somebody I don't really want anyway. And so I'm just
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: going to wait and I'll take him late.
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: It is what it is. All right. So let's break
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: down our teams here. Let's start with our work league,
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: our I heart league. OK, we'll go with that one first.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: In that one, you had the number four pick.
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: Obviously, you're going to have Jameer Gibbs. You had Bijan go.
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: And then Jamar Chase.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: And then it was Jamar Chase. And so you were up.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: You're on the clock.
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: I was up. And I just, at the time, I just,
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: I'm not 100% sure that Puka Nakua was going to
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: get suspended. Now, since then.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: He's biting everybody.
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, since then, Adam Schefter came out and said he's
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: probably not going to get suspended, which is so crazy. Like,
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: it's like they want the Rams to win the Super
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: Bowl this year. Like, how does he not get suspended?
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: The chick has an insane bite mark on her.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: But whatever. You still got to prove that it is.
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: I get it. I get it. So I didn't take him.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: Although Josh Jacobs is done.
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: Exactly.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: Was that a big discussion at any of your drafts?
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: Josh Jacobs and what to do with him.
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: What to do with him.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: And then there was the one guy who takes him
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: and you're like, all right, well, good luck, man. I
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: don't know.
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: So I also think at four, I kind of have
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: to take a running back in that spot because when
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: it comes back, I didn't know who was going to
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: be left. So I went with Jonathan Taylor. And I
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: didn't want to because I can't stand the Colts.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: But you like Jonathan Taylor.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: I like Jonathan Taylor. I just can't stand Daniel Jones.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: I don't want to watch Colts games. So he's ruined
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: the Colts for you?
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I won't take any other Colts.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: So then I had nine, and I'm sitting there, and
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: it's half-point PPR. So I was kind of looking at
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: wide receiver. And so whenever you kind of have whatever
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: strategy you go into, I do feel like at some
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: point you might– sacrifice a certain position. And so for
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: me this year, I kind of sacrificed running back to
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: go a little bit more heavy on wide receiver and
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: things like that. And so I was shocked that he
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: was still there at nine. He fell all the way
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: to nine to me, and I got Jackson, Smith, and Jigba,
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: which I think he's probably top six, in my opinion. Obviously, PPR,
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: he's worth a little bit more, but half-point PPR, I
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: was like, okay, I'll take Jackson. I thought that was
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: a decent pick at nine, and I was pretty happy
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: with that. And so where I ended up going a
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: little rogue is I had this guy targeted– in both
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: of our leagues that we're in together and I and
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: I knew if he wasn't taken I was gonna reach
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: for him early because I really wanted him because I've
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: had him before and he scores crazy amounts of points
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: he's almost guaranteed over 20 points no matter what league
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: he's in I wanted Josh Allen yeah and so I
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: wasn't messing around it came back around to me in
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: the second round and I know you it's a reach
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: because his quarterback doesn't usually go that high, but I
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: didn't care because to me he's more than that. He's
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: a running back. He's everything, and he scores such crazy points,
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: especially if he runs them in and stuff like that.
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: And he can have a game where he doesn't do
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: anything for three and a half quarters and then all
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: of a sudden have 25 points.
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: Absolutely. I've seen it happen before. And so I was like,
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: all right, I'm getting Josh Allen. I don't care. And
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: so I reached for him in the second round, didn't care,
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: and I did that in both leagues. So I got
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: Josh Allen as my quarterback.
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: That's great.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: And so overall, this is what my team looks like.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: I got Josh Allen at quarterback. My running backs are
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: Kyron Williams and Darian Price. Now, you've heard me talk
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: about rookies. I don't like rookies.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: No, I know.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: I always stay away from them. But my running backs
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: were pretty weak at that point when I came around.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: And so I kind of was like, I'm screwed. At
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: least I know he's the starter there. And so it
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: is a total risk. But I ended up going with
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: Jadarian Price. Like I said, I got Jackson Smith and Jigba.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: My other wide receiver, I went with Mike Evans. I'm
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: a Niner fan. So, I mean, that was kind of like,
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: I'm rolling the dice. Hopefully he's healthy.
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: I mean, he'll probably miss a game or two with
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: a hamstring injury at some point.
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: I hope not.
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: But.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: But whatever. So I got Mike Evans. My tight end
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: is Colston Loveland, who I'm pretty high on. I like Loveland,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: and so I got him. I got DK Metcalf, Jordan Mason,
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: Matthew Golden, RJ Harvey, Dalton Schultz, Baker Mayfield is my
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: backup quarterback, kicker, Kaimi Fairbairn, and then my defense is Eagles.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: So that's with our work league.
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, in our work league, I went Jonathan Taylor, Brees Hall.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: You were big on Brees Hall.
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: Brees Hall. The Jets– Listen, I get that they're the Jets,
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: but their offensive line is really good, and they're going
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: to be better. Are they going to win eight, nine games?
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: Probably not.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: Not with Geno Smith.
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: But I think they can win seven games and have
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: a decent offense.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: You're listening to too much sports radio in New York.
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: They hate the Jets. It's the Jets. I just think
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: that they're going to be better than people think, but
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: that doesn't mean they're going to make the playoffs.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: But we've been waiting for Brees Hall to have this
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: kind of breakout year for, I feel like, four years now.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: And he does okay. He's good. But he doesn't have
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: that big season that you keep expecting. We'll see.
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: I did pick up Braylon Allen as backup, just to
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: be safe.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: Well, handcuff action. Thank you.
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: And then I picked up George Pickens, who I think
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: will have a better year than CeeDee Lamp. I don't agree.
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: I think George Pickens had 430 yards, nine touchdowns last year.
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: He's great.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: They're both great. They're the best one-two in the league.
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I just think you can't go wrong with either.
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: And I think in this year, George Pickens' contract year,
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: I just think Pickens, this is the year for a
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: Georgia boy.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: I think CeeDee Lamb is one. Okay, he's the one.
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: And he's got more talent to me than George Pickens does.
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: And so I like CeeDee Lamb more than Pickens. But
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: I'm sort of in agreement that you can't really go
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: wrong with either guy. But if I was picking... If
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: I had both of them on the board, I'm picking
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: Lamb first easily. So that's me.
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: So then I picked DJ Moore from Buffalo. And then
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: Christian Watson, who's one of those guys that you just
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: think will be a darling pick. And then I picked,
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: let's see here, Michael Wilson, Blake Corum, Aaron Rodgers as
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: a backup because my main quarterback is Jackson Dart. Oh, God.
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: That's right. Jackson Dart.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: That's right.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: He's going to rush for touchdowns.
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: We don't know. Fantasy-wise.
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: We don't know.
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: I mean, he rushed for a bunch last year.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: And then he got concussed, like, every game.
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: He didn't get concussed.
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: I mean, basically every game.
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: He had one concussion. And then my tight ends are.
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: Johnson, and then I've also got Ramadre Stevenson, too. Chargers D,
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: Eddie Pinheiro. So with defense, I like to add and
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: drop as I go along.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: So that's how I roll with defense.
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: I like to see who the matchups are.
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: So the Chargers play the Cardinals, and then I forgot
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: who they play next week. So the first two weeks,
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: I'm going to start the Chargers defense.
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: Just based on who they play. Then over in our
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: buddies league, this is the league that I've been in, what,
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: four years now, I think? But, Thor, you've been in
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: that league forever.
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: 15 years.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: This is full PPR.
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: And so a little bit different. You had the– this
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: is the one where you had the 11th pick. I
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: still was at nine. Yep. And so in this league,
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: since it's full PPR, I kind of had it in
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: my mind I was going to go wide receiver, but
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: the way it fell– There was a lot, like the
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: bigger name wide receivers were gone and it went kind
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: of running back heavy, which surprised me a little bit.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: I don't know if you felt the same way.
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: This league always leans running back heavy for some reason.
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: It's PPR.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: I don't know why. It's just kind of weird to me.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: So I had some choices there at that spot. I
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: could have gone with James Cook. but I wanted to
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: get a wide receiver. And so I went with Amon
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: Ross St.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: Brown.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: And, and I thought on the other side, you know,
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: I had it in my mind, I'm going to get
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: Josh Allen. So I didn't want to draft cook really there.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: And so, and I knew nobody else was going to
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: take Josh Allen. So I knew that was my plan
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: all the way through. So I did end up getting
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: Josh Allen in the second round. Got a big stir,
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: big murmur, but I don't care. That's who I wanted.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: Then my running backs in that league, I kind of
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: stole your thunder and took Brees Hall.
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that sucked.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: I know I did that on purpose.
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: That sucked.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: Just to mess with you. Travis Etienne I got. Amon
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: Ra is my wide receiver with Marvin Harrison. Now, Marvin Harrison, again,
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: another guy that you've been waiting to have that breakout year,
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: and he hasn't happened yet, but I'm I don't know
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: why he's one of those guys that I kind of
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: feel like he might have a big year.
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: Yep.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: Could be, could mean, I don't know.
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: I don't know him or Michael Wilson. Yeah.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. I don't know. Uh, then
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: I got Colston Loveland again, and that was, again, I'm
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: in that nine spot and I'm like, man, what I
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: don't know. He was there. And so I took him, uh,
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: Cortland Slutton is on my team. The guy that both
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: Thor and I said is going to be possibly a
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: fantasy darling, uh, sleeper pick Blake Corum.
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: And so I got Blake Corum, and that got a
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: big reaction because I guess there was a couple guys
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: that maybe listened to our show and they wanted Corum.
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: And so they were bummed out about that. I got
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: Aaron Jones, Jake Ferguson, Brock Purdy is my backup. And
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: then one guy that I took a flyer on that
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: I'm hoping has big gear. Again, I don't believe in
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: rookies unless they're late. And this guy was, I think
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: my last pick, was Makai Lemon.
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: From the Eagles. He's their top pick.
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: Weird interviews. Weird face.
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: Bizarre guy.
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: Who knows what.
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: Will happen on the field. Bizarre guy.
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: And so that's my team.
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah. What about you? Yeah, I took Justin Jefferson at 11.
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: And I was going to go running back.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: That surprised me because I kind of felt like you.
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I was going to go running back, running back. But, man,
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: I mean, people are forgetting how good Justin Jefferson is.
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: And last year.
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: Well, he had such a bad year last year.
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: He had such a bad year.
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: But that wasn't his fault?
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: That wasn't his fault. Yeah. So, and I think Kyler Murray.
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: Kyler Murray is not a top-ten quarterback, but he's good
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: enough to get the ball to Justin Jefferson. And then
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: I took– this was tough. It was either going to
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: be Saquon or Chase Brown. And to me, I just
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: went with a guy who I– I think Saquon will
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: have a bounce-back year.
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: And I think– Yeah, but you hate Saquon. I do.
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: But it just went down to who I think is
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: more reliable. And I just went with Saquon.
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but you hate Saquon. I know. How are you
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: going to root for him?
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: It's going to be tough. And then a Brees Hall–
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: it's at nine. And Brees Hall and Chris Alave are
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: sitting right there. And I'm like, if I can get
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: Justin Jefferson, Saquon, and then one of those two guys,
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: I will be so freaking pumped. And then they both
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: went back to back. That sucked. If I would have
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: gotten Alave, because I think Alave is prime for a
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: big breakout year. But man, that sucked. So then I
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: kind of was stuck in like, I don't know what
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: to do. So I think Sean Payton doesn't make moves
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: like this unless they're going to be studs. And he
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: went out and traded a first-round pick for Jalen Waddell.
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: So my hope is that Jalen Waddell finally reaches the
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: potential that people think he had when he got drafted
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: in the top 10. So I took Jalen Waddell.
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: That surprised me a little bit.
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: I didn't see that coming.
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: I was going to take Garrett Wilson, but the fact
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: of having two people on the Jets offense on two
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: different teams scared me.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: So then I took Zay Flowers, and then I took
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: Bucky Irvin, Ramadre Stevenson. Rico Dowiddle is also a guy
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: I have because I know Jalen Warren's the guy right now.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: That's a sneaky good pick.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: But I think Rico.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: I agree.
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: He's played with McCarthy before.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: I agree.
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: Wondell Robinson with the Titans, PPR, Romeo Dobbs.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: Former Giant.
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: Kyler Murray as my backup because my starter.
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: The Dart man. So in both leagues, you went Jackson Dart.
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: That's right, baby.
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: Come on, bro.
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: And then I waited into the 12th or 12th round
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: to take a tight end. So there was no good.
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: Because somebody took Isaiah Likely and you wanted him, right?
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: No, I took Isaiah Likely.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: Oh, and there was the other one.
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: Isaiah Likely is going to have a lot of balls
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: thrown at him this way. I don't know if he's
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: going to be good or not.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: From Jackson Dart?
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: From Jackson Dart. He's going to have a lot of
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: balls thrown at him. And I didn't want to take
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: Jawan Johnson again, so I took Isaiah Likely. But those
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: are the only two Giants I took in all my drafts. So,
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: thank you.
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: Because I passed on Malik Nabors multiple times.
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: That is crazy.
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: I just don't want to.
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: You're worried about week one?
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: Week one. And I just, I don't want to risk
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: it yet, man.
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: Okay. Okay. And then my final league, which is my
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: OG league, like I said, I feel like my team
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: is crazy loaded because a lot of these guys, they're
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: just older. They want to stay connected to football, but
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: they don't really watch that much. And so I swear
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: to God, dude, one guy drafted a team that in 2021,
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: this would have been the greatest team of all time.
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: He has Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelsey, Cooper Cup. I mean,
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: like Derek Henry, like all these guys that, cause he
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: knows those names, but I'm also like, you realize this
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: is 2026. Like this is, I don't know that those,
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey, he acted like that was the steal of
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: the draft. And I'm like, I wouldn't touch Travis Kelsey.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: Like that's crazy. So in that league, I had the
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: sixth pick and that league went running back heavy. I
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: think all five picks were running backs. And I was
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: sitting there at six, and I'm like, ooh, I don't
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: want to be screwed again with no running back. And
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: I wasn't going to take Josh Allen again in that league.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: And so I actually took James Cook with my first pick.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: And so I was happy with that. I mean, the
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: guy had an incredible year last year. And I was
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: just like, I liked him a lot last year. So
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: I'm loaded at running back. I went James Cook with
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: Devon Achan, which I'm like, dude, I mean, I'm not
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: the biggest Dolphin fan. I don't think that they're going
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: to have a great season, but that's all they got.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: Then third round, crazy enough, I got George Pickens. So
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: I was happy about that. That's huge. You're going to
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: think this is kind of crazy. I went back-to-back tight end.
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: Really?
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: So I got Brock Bowers, who's the top tight end.
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: Him and Trey McBride, one or two. And then when
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: it came back around to me, Tyler Warren was still there.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: And I like Tyler Warren a lot.
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but who's throwing him the ball?
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: Your boy. And so I went, you know what? It's
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: a risk, and I can put him in the flex spot,
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: so why not? And so to me, he was too
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: good to pass up. And so I got Tyler Warren.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: I did, oh. this was the craziest one yet is
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: that I'm sitting there and I'm, you know, again, with
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: a lot of older guys and they don't really know
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: football and I'm seeing the guy and I'm one point
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: in my mind, I'm like, is he, did somebody take him?
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: And I missed it. Like, but I'm, I'm a guy
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: who usually is locked in. I hate when people take
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: a guy and he's been gone for four rounds or whatever.
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: Nothing drives me more nuts. But I'm like, there's no
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: way this guy's still on the board. But they just
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: don't really pay attention to stuff. And Jeremiah Love is
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: still sitting there late. I mean, it must have been
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: like sixth, seventh round or something like that, which is insane.
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: And I already have my running backs. I'm set at
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: running back. But I'm also like, you know, flex spot, obviously, too,
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: if I don't want to go too tight end set.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, well, why would I not take Jeremiah Love?
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: I know he's banged up. He's a rookie. But he's
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: still Jeremiah Love. I mean, he's one of the best
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: rookie running backs should be. around so i i took him.
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: And you don't need to start him in week one
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: because no.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: And i got and i got studs yeah so not
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: really about him uh i got terry mclaren in that
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: league i got parker washington which i know is a
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: big darling pick for a lot of guys you know
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: they all love him uh and then that was the
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: league where i waited on quarterback but i still ended
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: up with a pretty good guy i got caleb williams
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: yeah so hopefully he repeats what he did last year
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: i mean who knows but uh but that's my.
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: Team yeah and this other league i'm in i went
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: i the first.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: Pick Jackson Dart?
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: I went Gibbs.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: Oh, you didn't take Jackson Dart?
• 18:46
  Speaker 3: No, I went Gibbs just because I felt like the
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: Lions are better than the Falcons.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: If I had the number one pick, that's a no-brainer
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: to me. I'm taking Jameer Gibbs over Bijan.
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: I took Gibbs, Olave, and Trey McBride in my first
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: three picks.
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: Trey McBride is going to be– I had him in
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: one of our leagues last year, and he was so
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: good for me.
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: It came back, and I took Lamar, which is crazy.
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: I usually always wait for quarterbacks. Oh. And then I
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: took Metcalf, Bucky Irving, Chris Godwin, Blake Corum, Romeo Dodd.
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: Oh, you got Corum.
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I got Corum. And then I got Menungai because
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: people weren't taking him because he's injured now. But I
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: don't need him now.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: That guy doesn't score touchdowns.
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't need him now. And then I took
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: Jordan Love as a backup just in case. And Alec Pierce.
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good pick.
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: So I think it's a decent team.
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: So....
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: Again, you know, I love when people ask, you know,
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: how'd your draft go? I don't know. I mean, you
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: think you have a great draft, and then, yeah, I
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: don't know.
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: I walked out of the draft at my buddy's house
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: when we did the only draft we did live, thinking,
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: I legitimately was like I think that was a really
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: good draft I really like that draft and I never
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: think that and I got an F from Yahoo.
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: These Yahoo grades this year, like in both of our
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: leagues that we're in together, I've got Ds for both.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, D? Like, really? And I'm looking at
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: my picks and I'm like, I'm not that far off
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: of what they're saying.
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: I don't get what their base is.
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: I have no idea.
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: Because I'm like, I know I wasn't going to get
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: an A, but I can't get a C? I got
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: an F? I walked out of there going, that was
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: a good draft.
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: Nah.
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: Like, I was really feeling it. Nah, you got an F. Oh,
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: look at that. Not really. Not really. So there you go.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: Those are what our teams are going to look like.
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: Hopefully you had good drafts out there, but we are
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: in it. We, of course, we're going to answer your
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: questions every single week. You can hit us up. With
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: any of your starts or sits or any kind of
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: question that you got going on as the season goes along,
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: you can email us your questions every week, or you
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: can hit us up on X, at the show Eddie,
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: at the show Thor, and we'll get to your questions
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: every single week. So we already got questions, which is great.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: Week one here, and already people having questions about their
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: starts and sits. Of course, the first question has to
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: do with the guy that both of you and I
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: disagree on, Kenneth Walker. Kenneth Walker from the Chiefs. He says,
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: I got Kenneth Walker currently in my RB2 spot. However,
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: I have Tony Pollard and Ramon J. Stevenson on my bench.
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: Who would you rather start? It's PPR. Out of those
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: three guys.
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: Out of those three. So I'm kind of in the
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: same boat with different players, but with Ramon J. Stevenson.
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: You're starting Kenneth Walker, obviously. Here's the thing. I watched
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: Brian Dayball coach the Giants for four years. All Brian
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: Dayball cares about is the quarterback and passing. He does
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: not put together a good run offense. So I wouldn't
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: touch Tony Pollard or Tajay Spears.
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: I just wouldn't.
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: And Stevenson, I know they're going against the Seahawks tonight.
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: I know it's a tough defensive line, but he's going
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: to be the bell cow for them until Travion Henderson
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: comes back. So I'm going Kenneth Walker and Ramadre Stevenson.
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: But it sounds like this is for the one spot.
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: Oh, it's for one spot.
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: I think so.
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: Oh, well, then I'm going Kenneth Walker. I just have to.
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: He's the guy. And you drafted him higher than Stevenson. Yeah.
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: I mean, that would be crazy if you drafted Stevenson
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: higher than Kenneth Walker. So I'm going with Kenneth Walker.
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean, that's... Yeah.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Sorry.
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: I thought it was two out of the three.
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: Okay, so yeah. From what I read, because he says
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: it's RB2.
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you're going to go with Kenneth Walker.
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I would agree.
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: The only reason you would even question... going with Stevenson
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: is because he's the bell cow tonight, but his matchup sucks. Yeah.
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: Like I'm stuck between Bucky Irvin or Stevenson. Yeah.
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: You know what?
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: It's tough because week one, nobody knows. We don't know
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: anything really going in. Obviously you're going to never not start. Yeah.
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: You know, you're going to miss it. Bijan. No, of
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: course not. And so, yeah, there's, there's going to be
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: some questions in your lineup, but you kind of have
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: to let some things play out a little bit.
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly.
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: So it's going to be interesting. Next question is about
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: the quarterback spot. Now, Before you react, this is a
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: quarterback question that says, who would you guys start between
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: Bo Nix and Jackson Dart?
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: And I think I already know where you're going to go.
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: But this is interesting.
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: It's very tough.
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: Because Bo is coming off an injury.
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: Bo's coming off an injury. They're playing the Chiefs. And
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: I think it's in Kansas City, right?
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: They're playing the Chiefs. I believe so.
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's in Kansas City. That's tough. Dart's a brand
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: new offense. The Cowboys, listen.
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: Their defense is going to be better than it was
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: last year.
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: Their defense was atrocious last year.
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: So it can't be worse.
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: It can't be worse, but people are acting like they're
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: the 85 Bears now because they drafted Caleb Downs.
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: I got people, I'm looking.
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: At all these picks going to the Super Bowl. I'm
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: so over the Cowboys right now.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: Okay, you have some bias there.
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: That's a really tough question. If I take my giantness
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: out of it, I'd probably lean Bo Nix just because
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: it's the same offense and it's Sean Payton. And I
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: just trust them a little bit more.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: I'm going to shock you. Really? I'm going dark.
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: And I'll tell you why. We're not really helping this guy. Well, listen,
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: this is shocking. Because Bo Nix is coming off the injury,
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: I don't foresee that being a high-scoring game. I actually
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: think it's going to be a little bit lower, take
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: the under. Cowboys-Giants could be a shootout. So if that's
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: the case, I don't care who wins any of those games.
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: I'm just going based on fantasy points. And do I
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: think Dart has an opportunity to have more points than
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: Knicks because of that matchup? Yes, I do. I'm not
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: saying they're going to win. Don't get me wrong. I'm
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: just saying it could be a shootout. That's it. So relax.
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: I mean, it should have been twice last year.
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: Okay, take it easy. So weirdly enough, I'm going to
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: take Dart if those are my two choices.
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree. I kind of think my Giants fandom
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: is holding me back from taking a dart.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: Because you're worried?
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: Because I'm worried.
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: All right. Let's get to our starts and sits for
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: the week. Our first one of the season at quarterback.
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: Who's your start?
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: I'm starting Kyler Murray at Green Bay. I think he's
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: going to come in and he's going to get the
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: ball to Justin Jefferson.
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: He's a little hope.
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, he's on my bench.
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: I know, but you have Justin Jefferson.
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I have Justin Jefferson. And it's true. And I
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: feel like Kyler Murray always has good starts to seasons.
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: And then he kind of fades in the mid to
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: end of the year. So I think Kyler Murray will
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: have a good game. And also the Packers are without
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: Micah Parsons on defense.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, again, I'm looking at matchups week one because that's
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: kind of all I can go on because I'm not
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: really sure what I'm seeing yet. And so I do
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: like this matchup. I like Jared Goff this week. I
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: think the Lions are going to come out kind of strong.
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: They're not completely decimated with injuries yet. So, and the Saints,
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: I know some people are believers in the Saints. I'm
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: quite not. I'm not quite there yet.
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: People love Tyler Shuck for some reason.
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: He's a good quarterback. I mean, he had a good
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: rookie year, but I mean, I don't know that he's,
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: you know. the second coming of Drew Brees. But I
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: do like Jared Goff this week. I think he has
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: a good game. So he's my start for the week.
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: Who's your sit?
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: Eddie, listen, obviously you're going to start him. So I
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: do not sit him because I say this, but my
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: sit this week, Josh Allen. And here's why. What? Josh Allen.
• 26:01
  Speaker 3: Are you out of your mind? Josh, they're playing at Houston.
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: And if you don't believe me, Texas is a good defense.
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: He's played the Texans three times. He's 0-3 and is
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: awful against the Texans.
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: So automatically he's going to be 0-4 and be terrible? Automatically?
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: Until I see it.
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: Automatically?
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: I am not playing him this week. What a ridiculous
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: thing to say. He stinks against the Texans.
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: He's the MVP.
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: And he stinks against the Texans.
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: 0-3.
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: He's not going to. He's not going to.
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: It's just a really bad matchup for them to start
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: the season.
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: No.
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: Maybe he turns it around. But they have his number.
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: They just do.
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: Sorry.
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: Obviously, you're going to start him. You have no choice.
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: I'm not listening to you.
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: Sorry.
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry.
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: My sit this week could have sounded stupid a couple
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: of years ago, but at this point, I don't know, man.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: My sit this week is Patrick Mahomes. He's taking on Denver,
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: who is already a stud defense, and I'm questioning, why
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: are you starting Patrick Mahomes? I don't get it. Is
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: he ready?
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: There's no way he's 100% recovered.
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: I'm worried about the guy.
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: There's no way. And you're playing Denver. Like, just what?
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: I don't know. I think the Chiefs should have taken
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: this year as a rebuild year.
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: Is Taylor Swift even going to be there?
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: I don't know. It's just, I don't get it. I
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: saw Mina Kimes say yesterday he's the greatest quarterback of
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: this generation. And I'm like, is he? He had a
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: great six-year run, but he's kind of fallen off the
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: last two years. He just has.
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: I agree, but you can't discount what he's done.
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: You can't. But he also got drafted into the most
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: perfect six-year.
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: It doesn't matter.
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: I get it.
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: I get it. I get it.
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: I don't think you do. I get it. I don't
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: think you do.
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: I get it. I'm just saying.
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: You can't discount that guy. I need to see him
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: turn around a little bit. Don't discount that man.
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: He's unbelievable. He was throwing 45, 50 touchdowns a year, 4,000,
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: 5,000 yards, and now he's hitting like 26 touchdowns.
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, again, Travis Kelsey got old. They haven't done
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: a great job with wide receivers. They don't have a
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: running game. Tyreek Hill, no running game. It's not his fault.
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: Patrick Mahomes is great. I'm not saying he's not great.
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: You kind of are.
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: But it's not the same Patrick Mahomes.
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: You kind of are. All right. At running back, who
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: is your start?
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: My start is, this hurts, Javante Williams. The Giants run
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: defense stinks. They have no defensive tackles. Their defensive line stinks.
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: Their pass rushers are great. Arvo Reese is really good
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: at linebacker. So is Tremaine Edmonds. But until I see it,
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: I don't believe it.
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: Can't stop him?
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: Can't stop the run.
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: My start this week, you'll probably like because you did
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: draft him in one of the leagues. I don't really
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: like a lot of teams that have the kind of
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: dual running backs, but I think this guy, he's going
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: to have a breakout game, and I think they're going
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: to probably go with him most of the way. Rico Dowdle.
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: I like him. I think he's going to be a
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: surprise pick for week one, and you're taking on the Falcons.
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: Should I start him over Stevenson or Bucky Irvin? Because
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: I have Stevenson going in two leagues, Bucky Irving going
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: in one league.
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, you're going to go with guys who
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: you know are traditionally... This is too much of a risk. Yeah,
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: but I mean, if you have a guy where you're
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: just not completely sure, and, you know, it is good
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: to probably wait and see, but I have this weird
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: feeling about him. So do I. And I think he's
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: against the Falcons. I mean, I just don't know. I
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: think the Falcons are going to be terrible. And so
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: I like Dowell this week. Who's your sit?
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: My sit is R.J. Harvey and the Broncos running back room.
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: because i don't know who the starter is is it
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: jk dobbins is it rj harvey is it the rookie
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: jonah coleman i have no idea who the starter is
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: i'm avoiding that running back room until i see it
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: and and if you drafted one of those guys as
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: one of your starters that's it that's.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: What i mean when you have multiple running backs not
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: doing i don't know who to put in until we
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: see it and and i'm kind of feel that way
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: about ramon j stevenson when trayvon.
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: Henderson is yeah and that's and Yeah, exactly.
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't know.
• 29:41
  Speaker 3: That's why I'm starting. I'm trying to use him while
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: I can.
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: Sure, I get that. Who's your sit?
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: I said R.J. Harvey and Broncos running back room.
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: Oh, that's right.
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry. You're right.
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: I'm not paying attention to you. My sit this week
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: is Chris Rodriguez, a guy that people thought that this
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: was a sneaky good pick and all that stuff. And
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't know, man. Again, Jacksonville, their running
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: back situation, I don't know what exactly they're doing. I
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: don't really get it, Tootin. I'm just not a big
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: believer in them. And Chris Rodriguez isn't even the starter.
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: But some guys were acting like, oh, this guy is
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: going to be the guy and this and that. And
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: you're taking on Cleveland, who's not very good, but defensively
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: they're pretty good. And so that matchup to me is
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: kind of gross. And so I was like, no, I'm
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: going to sit that guy. Wide receiver, who's your start?
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: My start is tonight. I think A.J. Brown has a
• 30:32
  Speaker 3: monster game.
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: Monster?
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: Because that secondary right now is really hurt for the Seahawks.
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: And A.J. Brown, it comes in waves with A.J. Brown.
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: I think he has a big game tonight.
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: That's surprising. My start this week is Ladd McConkie.
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: Really?
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think Ladd McConkie had a little bit of
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: a downer year last year. Wasn't that great, but I
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: think he's going to come into his own this year.
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: Taking on Arizona, who I don't think is going to
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: be very good. I think the Chargers are going to
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: be pretty good this year. And so I like Ladd McConkie.
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: Who is your sit?
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: This sucks because I'm actually going to sit him and
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: start Alec Pierce over him. I'm sitting DJ Moore this
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: week against the Texans.
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: Oh, dude.
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: Dude.
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: I hope Buffalo wins 50 to nothing.
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: Hey, I hope they do too.
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: And DJ Moore scores 17 touchdowns.
• 31:21
  Speaker 3: That would suck. That would really suck. I'm sitting him
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: this week.
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: I won't sit him again.
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: Alec Pierce.
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: I mean, I got no words. I got no words.
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: Until Josh Allen plays well against the Texans. The next
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: time Josh Allen plays well against the Texans will be
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: the first time.
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: And this is going to happen Sunday. We'll see.
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: My sit this week, I think you've heard me say
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: it now multiple times. I don't like the Falcons. I mean,
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: you got Tua in at quarterback. So, listen, Drake London
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: I'm sure is going to have a pretty good year.
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: He'll be fine.
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: That's why I didn't draft him.
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he scares me off. And so you're taking on
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: the Steelers, who, you know, is a pretty good defense.
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: And so I just, I don't know, man, until, like, again,
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: unless I see Tua all of a sudden is good,
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: then I'm not buying it. And who's going to get
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: him the ball? And so, yeah, I don't like Drake
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: London this week. Tight end. Who is your start?
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: Again, this is going to be a homer pick, but
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: I'm taking Isaiah Likely.
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: Oh, boy.
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: But he's got, I think him and Dart have a
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: thing going. He's going to catch a lot of balls.
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: What's their thing?
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: They have a thing going. He's going to catch a
• 32:23
  Speaker 3: lot of balls. They signed him to a big contract.
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: He didn't catch a ton of balls in Baltimore.
• 32:27
  Speaker 3: He was behind Mark Andrews. He's going to be their guy.
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: I think just because they have Caleb Downs doesn't make
• 32:33
  Speaker 3: them the 85 Bears. You're really hating on these Cowboys.
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: Because I can't take how much love they're getting.
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: I haven't seen any of that. I don't know. You're
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: not going to like this because my start this week
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: is Jake Ferguson versus the Giants. And so, yeah, I think,
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: like I said, I'm basing this off a shootout. I
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: really think that this is going to be not a
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: lot of defense. I think that there is going to
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: be a lot of balls to be had. And so
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: I do think Jake Ferguson– may find the end zone
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: or something like that. Who's your sit?
• 33:00
  Speaker 3: My sit this week is a guy who was like
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: a stud for a couple weeks last year, and now
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: I don't know who the starter is because they have
• 33:05
  Speaker 3: three different tight ends. I'm going Aranda Gadsen. Gadsen? Gadsen,
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: the Chargers tight end. Because is it him? Is it Njoku?
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: Is it this other guy? I don't know who the
• 33:14
  Speaker 3: hell the starting tight end is.
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: Too many cooks?
• 33:15
  Speaker 3: Too many cooks, so I'm sitting him against the Cardinals.
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: My sit this week, this hurts me a little bit.
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: I just don't know, again, if he's physically ready. Everything
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: I've heard, he's playing George Kittle.
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, George Kittle, you're all the way in Australia. I
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: don't know that you're 100%. Rams defense, apparently, you want
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: to talk about an all-time defense, you know, I mean,
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: even though Aaron Donald's not playing. But still, they're very,
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: very good. I think they're going to leave Kittle in,
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: if anything, just a block. And so I don't foresee
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: him having, like, a crazy first game or anything like that.
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: Eventually, I think Kidd will be fine. But right now,
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: I'm not a believer just yet. So there you go.
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: There are your starts and sits for week one, baby. Hopefully,
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: you go out there and get a win.
