Ship chasing and we're getting back to our roots.
Just three Bros drafting a best ball mania team.
But no, we got a twist for you today.
We're not going to be making all of these picks collectively.
We'll explain in a second how we're going to be doing it.
I'm Pete with Davis and pat. Let's draft a team.
Pat fryer Helmo. This is what This is what I'm
Pat Anita hand job. Fix your sight.
Jamar. Alpha play Chase.
You can't handle the heat. It looks like we're finally at
this point. You're right, all right.
We have, you know, gambling, pro sports betting, dying as we know
it as the big beautiful bill passes today.
But us best ball Bros, we got a battle through Pat Davis.
How we doing? I mean, hey man, if you don't
win, ain't nothing to deduct. That's what they say.
Brother, honestly that's not even true.
The way this is written, you can pay taxes on losing SO.
You got to make it close though. You got to be within 10.
Yeah, you got to be close and. Then you let me tell you buddy,
you go a cool 7.8% advance rate. Ain't no one from the government
knocking on your door. Maybe.
Maybe the bank foreclosing on your house?
But so so we're all going to lose anyways.
Was actually bullish the whole time.
Super bullish. Yeah, it it, David.
Just has to amend it. It's not that we're all going to
lose a little bit, It's you got to lose it all for this time,
you don't. Have to pay taxes.
Great, great. Country got going here.
I got yeah. So that is that is not good.
I think we're supposed to get a ruling too from California, Pat,
which I assume is, are you monitoring that?
Near and dear yeah, yeah. It was nice to get this extra
wild card that I didn't even know about as I waited this
decision that's coming down today, that's now like secondary
in my mind so we'll see. I know Underdog, I think sued to
delay this announcement or whatever this letter, I don't.
Know, I'm actually, I'm actually more bullish on underdog
DraftKings and FanDuel winning that in California that I feel
like they have the legal might to actually like tribal casinos
versus DraftKings, FanDuel underdog prize picks.
That's actually a fair fight. Maybe not even actually probably
I would say maybe more in the favor of the the big fantasy
sports entities versus the tribal casinos.
The the big beautiful bill stuff.
Not great. Because there's precedent, you
know, with what happened in New York, Illinois.
So they're at least at the carve out for that stuff.
This the stupidest fucking bill thing is that they're like it
just got tacked on at the end too, so couldn't you I mean, I
don't know it's just crazy to me the.
The UIGEA was tacked on to a port safety bill Brother.
We are, we are not at the top of the priority thing in there.
Someone just posted in the Lulls channel that they they're like
projection. The revenue estimate on this 90%
tax thing was 1.1 billion revenue gain, which still like
my take when we were talking about lols.
It's just going to drive people to more offshores, more black
market. Stuff for sure.
The piece of the actual taxable pie shrinks so much that they're
actually losing, you know, taxable revenue.
Gains they are, I think they will.
It's a really, really stupid, stupid idea.
Anyways, yeah, let's talk about fantasy football.
I feel like on this channel we've you guys covered the the
Darren Waller and Johnny Smith stuff pretty thoroughly on
Tuesday. Davis, you're very excited about
a Burchard Smith blurb. One finally bubbled up to the
surface that you didn't have to search hours for.
No, I mean dude, Schefter tweeted this out.
Schefter rounded up like he did. He did an article where he all
the ESPN affiliated beat writers submitted their camp stand out
or I guess for him any camp stand out.
And Adam Tiker submitted Brashard Smith as as the Chiefs
minicam standout, saying judging from how he was utilized in
offseason practices, the Chiefs have plans for Smith, a seventh
round draft pick out of SMU. Smith was a wide receiver in
college before moving to running back for his final season.
And the Chief showcased his versatility.
But again, getting him the ball out of the backfield from the
slot and split out wide. Smith ran a 4.3940.
So we will fit in with a group of other fast, skilled position
players including Xavier Worthy, Hollywood Brown, and I thought
notably Elijah Mitchell also included in in that blurb.
Can I be the wet blanket here, Davis?
I mean, you hate Jack Besh. You hate you're probably going
to be like, you know, you're you're probably going to start
to yeah, here's. Here's the web blanket.
I read that entire article because I wrote up some of the
names for Fantasy Life. You sure did you.
You got a Jordan Watt? Yeah, I think you were first to
market on Jordan Watkins. Yeah, so if you want to know the
quality of sleeper we're talking about in this article, Jordan
Watkins, 26 year old Danny Gray, Jamari Thrash, Patriots wide
receiver Effton Chisholm. So I just want to know the
company that Brusher is getting with the these deep sleepers.
I mean these are fucking deep sleepers Is is what I'm driving
at. There was the other blurb that
was from an A-Z sports guy and and he was saying something
like, you know, Pacheco will start pretty clearly cream hunt,
they think might be able to take on more.
And now that he's, you know, not not, you know, joining the team
mid season, Eli Mitchell and you know, whoever else probably make
the team, I don't know, but Brashard Smith will certainly
contribute. And I showed it to my dad
because he's he's up visiting and he was asking about like,
what's what's kind of the the NFL schedule?
Like, what are you doing? I'm like, let me show you
something that actually moved the needle for people today.
And I just showed him that blurb and was like, what?
Anything jump out to you about this?
He's like, no. Nope, I'm.
Like, well, the Slappies think it's awesome for this guy named
Richard Smith that we're we're excited.
Well, it's funny tell you it it it.
It seemed nuclear bad on Elijah Mitchell.
Like if if Kareem Hunt is just a clear running back to Pacheco is
clearly the starter, Elijah Mitchell could just get caught
for sure. Straight up.
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, it is funny like how the
NFL news cycle works where I I always feel like because I'm I'm
writing the newsletter daily and so it'll be like boom, Jonnu
Smith trade, Darren Waller sign you got stuff.
And then I go to write things tomorrow and I'm like, I'm
scanning the news, looking at road to world.
I'm like, there's fucking nothing like out here.
It's like a two line Brashard Smith blurb buried at an article
is all we have to work. With Yeah, that's all we got,
man. I should also mention we have
been recording our minisode series.
We actually have one pick left, just a defense, but we recorded
basically the final minisode today, rounds 14 through 18.
I'll probably post that tomorrow, but if you guys are
behind, the rest of the draft has already been posted.
Those are available for any YouTube members.
But we went pretty long today, about a 45 minute recording on
our last picks and just kind of an overall review of the team,
how it shook out in the disastrous auto pick that you
have probably heard about. But feels very good to get that
that first team under our books, fellas.
It does, yeah. It end up being a fairly fun
team, you know, all things considered.
Not the team any of us would have would have hoped for, but
we did a lot of things. No outside.
Outside of the one thing you've, I like it, Davis, I like it.
Davis has fully coped on the auto pick in a way that is
honestly impressive. But I can't get.
I can't get there. Yeah, it is the power of, you
know, how like we all have that, that effect of the like Halo
effect after you draft A-Team and you're kind of going down
and you're just like, dude, this team fucking is awesome.
Like, you know, and it's so this would really put that to the
test. But I'm kind of like Davis too,
where I could just put on my like rose colored glasses.
Now when I look at this deal, I'm like, no, I think it works.
I think we did. It I think it works.
I think it works. I think we did OK.
You know, sometimes with the best ball draft, you'll just go
in and maybe auto pick the first couple rounds.
You've talked about this, Pete, like, you know, just yeah, we'll
just see what the see what the auto draft gives us and then
we'll we'll build a team around it.
Now, would I recommend doing that with a main event team?
No. But but you know what?
It turns out that exercise is possible.
Here's what I here's what I'd say, Pat.
We could even have gotten away with doing that in a Mastiff or
a high state draft on underdog. We would take the underdog ADP
top of the queue falling. Yes, we would.
Yeah, you're right. We would.
Feel much better about that. Oh my God.
All right, so here's what we're going to do today.
You know, we haven't drafted in a few weeks.
Again, another plug for last week's show.
If you missed it, Ben Gretsch came on.
We had a really fun conversation about all the rookie running
backs and Gretsch had some awesome insights there, so check
that out. But we haven't drafted in a
little bit. But as Davis and I are known to
do, we get bored with just regular drafting, so we got to
manufacture some ways to make it interesting for us.
I had this thought of what if we don't collectively agree on each
pick? You know, meet in the in the
middle, reach across the aisle in these polarizing political
times. What if we each just get 6 picks
for the draft? 18 picks, each of us get 6 of
them and we spin a wheel each time we're on the clock and the
other people have no input. You get to make the pick and
then we can roast each other. We can argue that you didn't
build on what we had already done before.
Feels like a decent idea. So what do we I?
Think we might have a shipper? Actually this this is like gonna
be a really good mix of picks. What's kind of the rules here on
sort of what's allowed? Like are we, are we just
supposed to kind of let the person deliberate aloud make the
pick and then just unleash hell? Or are we, are we because I
mean, I guess what I'm trying to say is like how input free are
we trying to be beforehand? Obviously gloves are off after
the pick is made. Yeah, I think if you want to
solicit, like if you don't, if you want to make your pick more
like Democratic because you're just indifferent and you're just
a basketball streamer with no player takes, then I think.
That's I don't, I don't think we should be allowed to do that.
I think you got to just you got to make the pick.
I don't want to. OK, yeah, you got to make it.
I'm I'm good with that. What I would say, you know, the
goal here, right, is that if Davis wants to take Jack Besh at
pick 1:20, AM I going to be fucking pissed?
Yes. But am I going to maybe now add
Geno Smith to the board? Yes.
Like we this is the ultimate improv exercise.
It's yes. And whatever you do, I now have
to deal with that reality. We swear the goal here is to
still build a shipper. I like it.
All right, so let's do this. We'll give ourselves the 32nd
clock for this so we can do this.
So if you guys want to hop in the draft, oh, you guys are on
top. Of it.
Wow, look at that. Already one here.
Let's see what pick we have and then we will spin the wheel.
OK, the 1-12, this is again, it's always tough with
randomized. In backpack.
But let's see who gets the You know what?
Let's just spin both of these and.
Then we'll you got to spin. That's what that's what you have
to do. You have to spin twice.
Oh I, I should have shuffled these two.
Whatever, shuffle now. Let me redo it, let me go it.
It doesn't matter. But I want to, for aesthetic
purposes, shuffle this. OK, sure.
Sure, sure. All right, here we go.
A million shuffles. All right, let's do it again.
This is for the 112 and. It will remove it afterward.
Yeah, yeah, I'll hit remove it. So Davis is going to have the
112. All right, Jack.
Mesh in the. And I will.
That's BEHP. OK, me and Davis.
Pat is boxed. Out of the first three pitch
here. All right, all right, See how it
is? Well, this is just this is going
to be boring as heck up at this this first spot.
I mean, put put, I guess we have we have people watching.
So I don't want to like purposely get sniped, but
probably probably a running back with my pick.
I would think actually it'd be really funny to make you guys
take Derek Henry. Dude, I almost made the joke,
but in the in the spirit of not influencing you, I didn't want
to go. Well, pencil the big dog in, no?
I, I, I think I have, I have Genti ranked above market still.
The one who that I don't get as often is Nico, because I have
Nico ranked after Genti and I think they, they're, they're
like 10.9 and 11.1. But I do Nico there with there.
There you go 11, 1111.2 and 11.4 for those guys.
So just however it's worked out. Yeah I haven't gotten much genti
in a while cuz I do take a lot of Nico Amanran BTJ.
Not so much genti these days. Used to take him a lot back when
he was in the second early 2nd. Good old big board days.
Big, old, big board. How long ago does that feel?
Davis streamed a big board draft on like January 26th.
Buddy as as Jane Daniels was taking the field the NFC
Conference championship game. It's funny to get the time that
felt kind of screwed up, but it feels a more screwed up now.
Yeah. Do you remember, do you remember
any rookies you drafted on the the first team that you?
Yeah. I took.
I took Bischel Tooten with the
final pick. Julio Mullings was probably on
mine. I mean I I thought he would be
fun. They shall tune with the final
pick that's. That is pretty good man.
Makes it all for drafting in January.
No? If Isaiah Bond didn't exist, I
would be like the championship belt Holter of CLV In in in the
big board. Because I I got some some Travis
Hunter at like 170 or something for he was like unranked or it
was crazy. I took Travis Hunter in round 17
in the first one. Wild.
All right, Davis.
Oh, neighbors goes. I'm on raw.
Brian Thomas, Derek Henry. What are you gonna do?
St. Brown St.
Brown in the queue then. Yeah, it I could be like the
agent of chaos with Derek Henry. I don't even think it's that
crazy. But let's do.
Let's do Brian Thomas bye week. Bros can be terrified that they
both have a week 8 bye. And we'll make Pat theoretically
have to deal with this later. Hey, I'm just really glad that
Pete picked second there. You know that that was nice that
you you got the BT That's the one I was sweating.
I figured Davis would would take Almond Rob, but BTJ over Henry.
Pretty happy with that. I was just, I, I mean, not even,
I have it in me to take 8% of Henry.
What? Yeah.
What percentage, Henry, do you guys have?
I don't even think I have that. Much barely.
I mean, I've I've really not. Drafted because I I have him
ranked after a chain so it's just impossible to get him.
Let's see, I have oh, I'm I'm 8.1%.
I'm wow, Pete Pete's more of an 8% bro than me, brother.
Yeah, I, I don't know, I just have a really hard time drafting
in park is I feel like you can get running backs later, like
maybe maybe, you know, like the Harvey Henderson, you know, tear
there won't seem as exciting after the draft, after the
season starts. But you know, there's briefs,
there's lots of guys I really like and then there's like, I
think Chuba Mix and Chimera are all like honestly fine at the
underdog ADP. So it's like, I just rather take
the I'm just breaking ties to the receiver in that spot like
so often. Well, you might be a slappy if
you cite Trayvon Henderson as a reason to not take the big dog.
Yeah. Yeah.
I did. I did that.
I stand by it. The two V2 I prefer BTJ
Henderson versus what? What do you got?
You're one step away from Sam. Why take Derrick Henry in the
second? We could take Justice Hill in
the 16th. Why take why?
Why take Derrick Henry in a second when he's going to be
hurt by Week 8 and Keith Mitchell's going to lead the NFL
in rush yards over? Expectation.
That's fun. Yeah, we got a spin here, Pete.
Yes, yes we do. Yes, all right, let's see it.
So like you said, this is there is no guarantees that Davis and
I don't get to pick again and Pat.
It yeah, I mean, I could end up with the last 6 picks or
something. Yeah, look at this getting
completely boxed out here. No, that's you.
OK, so I have the 3:12 and we'll see who has the four one.
This is going to be a double P, Double P What is going on?
Double. P OK, that remove you're hitting
that remove OK. I hit look over here at the
tally, I'm down to 1/2. Corrine is so ready to pick 17
and 18 he's locked. In so annoyed you have to take
the last 6 I think. Pat, they've always said that
the skill expression in drafting is way more so in the later
rounds. And I'm also have to get out of
here. I have.
To keep it, ask of all the things we've done, it's easier
if you just pick the first six pigs.
You don't got to think about the correlation or anything.
Yeah. It's true, I forgot to even look
who's I lock in. Who's in this room?
I see our guy. Clay Dog is in here.
Doctor Evil is in here. Fake sharp.
How friends and family it is. All right, crazy news for you
guys when we get to the later round picks.
Actually I just got pilled on the worst player you can.
Okay, that's a good thing. I have all of our late round
picks. Just named Jordan Watkins.
No. OK, do we three-week 8 buys but
JSN falling to 31. Look, I am I'm an ADP bro.
I we're going to laugh in the face of the ADP the bye week
Bros. We're going to take JSN and Pat
just relax because we are taking Breece Hall here.
Breece Hall, Amanra Brian Thomas Junior JSN 3 Week 8 buys.
It's not ideal, but you know, I, I don't know, is that enough to
where maybe you do take a tete. I think maybe you just take JSN.
It's a nice ADP value. I like the briefs pick a lot.
Are we? Am I allowed to say that JSN
with Brian Thomas and Monroe is probably unique?
Yeah, I think you are. No JSNJSN has been falling.
I've gotten him at this turn. Well, there's three-week, eight
week 8 pies it probably. Is a little more unique.
You need the ADP faller and someone not to be terrified of
the bye week Bros to to pull that click.
True, true. They're they're the the bye week
Bros are a strong force. You know they're getting.
Stronger by the day, yeah. No, I I got to tell you guys, I
just was streaming with Mason Fantasy Flock and his most
drafted player is Quentin Johnston.
Wow. And I I.
Herbert. I don't, I don't know, yeah.
I didn't ask him about Herbert because I was so stunned that
that was his most drafted player.
And I, I looked up his cohorts like I just did the, the, the
Pro Football Reference filter for first round draft picks.
Year one year 2 / 1000 yards less than 1500 / 5 touchdowns.
And the two obvious lot losers were Dotson and Dachshund.
John Dotson, Josh Dachshund. But also it was like Hakeem
Butler or Hakeem Nix, Will Fuller, like four other guys who
were Dez Bryant was in his cohort.
Like it was, it was, it was not bad players.
It was it was good players. Yeah, I mean, I don't think that
the QJ price is like anything insane, but I mean the the Trey
Harris draft pick is a is a pretty big deal.
I think also Lab looking like a star is not ideal for for him.
I think he's draftable and stuff.
Yeah, I'm not opposed. He's pretty cheap, but I don't
think he's like a huge target. It it does feel kind of like the
Mim stuff too, where, you know, finishes the season strong and
you're really having to wrestle like how much of that was just a
by product of the lack of options and, you know, the
availability of them being out there.
And then the team's like, all right, we're going to, we're
going to beef this up in a way where we might not have to
funnel you targets in the way we did down the stretch last year.
Yeah. I mean, I think we can probably
move them around more and try to like utilize him more as like a
Yak player. I guess now with Harris there,
like Harris I think will be pretty traditional like X
receiver stuff. So that's probably good.
This is unbelievable. This is unbelievable.
Great idea Pete, Just have your name that's supposed to be
randomized in every single pick I keep getting.
I'm going to have one pick the rest of the draft after this.
Yeah, it's going to be the next pick we make.
All right, fat, you're going to finally get to make a pick.
You get 6 more than I get 512. Let's go.
So now Davis and I are going to have the same number of picks
made and people have made 5. Well, no, this is terrifying
because I want to get in front of Davis going rogue and stuff
and, you know, balance things out and now my ability to, you
know, put my finger on the scale is just going to be completely
diminished. Yeah, that's true.
Davis is funny. Davis and I are piloting this
this landing. Should I leave my computer and,
I don't know, accidentally time out on Alvin?
I've done it before. Hey.
Here's the thing, I'm going to take my guy 3rd and Juan, Juan
Jennings and Pat I'll I'll bleed this clock and let you decide
what you want to do. You can talk out.
You don't got to bleed it. I'll, I'll take Trayvon
Henderson. Let's have some fun.
This is why we didn't take Derrick Henry.
Yeah, we don't need, we don't need Derrick Henry, Trayvon
Henderson, one of my favorite players, dude.
Who needs Trayvon Henderson when you can take who?
Who needs Derrick Henry when you can take the third down back on
Drake May's offense on 1/2? Keep your website in the sixth
round. Wow, you really?
Drake May's offense doesn't do in my brain what I think.
You're thinking it doesn't. It doesn't do in your brain what
it does to a normal person's brain.
Yeah, in my brain I'm like, oh, I'm seeing all these great
passes. Long I I think, I think a normal
person probably thinks like Ryan Mallett is the quarterback of
the Patriots. Like it's just, it's just not
Tom Brady. The the other thing is Pat
doesn't actually see Trayvion Henderson.
He sees New England and sees Drake May on every single
player. Like he's not selecting Trayvion
Henderson, he's selecting it's like a get out of jail free card
or like proceed here to draft Drake May.
That is what it is. Well, we'll see what that what
that wheel gives us. Pete.
The Trayvion Henderson, I think is actually a little different
where I am drafting Trayvon Henderson, like I think he was a
really good prospect. I have him as a as a better
prospect, kind of a tear above RJ Harvey, even with with the,
you know, the draft capital plugged in and all that.
So I think he's he's very exciting.
Like Romandre is not a complete back and Henderson is going to
provide a lot more explosiveness, I think.
And I think by the end of the season can be kind of a maybe
not like a workhorse exactly, but a lead back in the sense
he's getting enough of the high value stuff where we're we're
really excited and having plenty of stand alone value ahead of
that is the receiving back. So I'm betting on the profile,
I'm betting on his talent. I do.
I think he's pretty, pretty exciting.
I also think it's going to take a little bit knowing New
England, but he he strikes me as one of those guys you're just
like by Week 6, you're like fuck.
And then at like Week 11, you're like, fuck yeah.
That, that you know what that is?
So exactly it. He is so the like, why is Kevin,
Kevin Smith? That's not his name.
Who's the Patriots? I guess it's Antonio Gibson.
Why is Antonio Gibson have 4 rushes and two receptions at
halftime and then and then yeah, by by week 11 or whatever?
He's absolutely, he's absolutely smashing.
Yeah, he was, you know, kind of a committee back in college, you
know, and never really, I mean, the best year was his freshman
year and and then he never quite put together the career that
that we were hoping for to be like this amazing prospect, but
still very strong prospect. And if you're going to bet on
the guys who were explosive, we're good receivers, but never
kind of like put it all together and and dominated as workhorses.
You want guys with coming from high pedigree programs who get
draft capital, right? So I mean, that's that's one of
the things with Henderson is like he could end up being a
better pro than he was a college player.
All right, Pat gets the 612. I have one more pick the rest of
this draft. No, I hope it's round 18 all.
Right, Davis, you get the, you get 7/1 here.
All right, Nice. We're in the we're in the
Pacheco range. Oh God.
See, This is why I got to get
Henderson, because you're going to end up with Pacheco.
I never want to hear that phrase again.
Pacheco Range. I bet he's our, I mean, he's
going to, he's going to get, he's going to get picked who is,
who is definitively a better pick than Isaiah Pacheco on this
side of the board right now. I mean, pull up the Tony,
Where's Josh Downs? Aaron Jones, Josh Downs.
OK, you might be, you might be. You really might be a slappy if
you are. Josh Downs should be at the
other term. Are you a Brashard Smith Bowl or
are you an Isaiah Pacheco bowl? Davis, I can't keep track.
I'm a I'm a Chiefs are going to run the ball 412 times bowl.
Well, how many times are they going to pass it to Brashard
Smith then? 37, but end times in week 17.
Man. All right, Thank you.
The Kohler Show. That's bullish.
So this is my.
Pick first seven. OK, yeah. 7:12 and then Davis.
Come on. Pauler Jones.
What else we got here? I'm.
I'm already bored. I'm bored.
IGBUCA. All right, Davis is going to
take a a boring running back. Let's take a Buca.
No, I wanted IGBUCA. Well, I'm taking them.
I left snipe your ass. You I was.
Going to say you left me with the shitty pig.
I knew you're going to do it. Normally, normally I would just
want to take Hawkinson here, but I don't want Hawkinson to be one
of my picks. I should take Mahomes and force
you guys to back door with Hollywood or something.
What are our running backs? Briefs and Travion.
Yeah, take, take Pollard all. Right.
Pollard was who I should have taken, but I just didn't want to
do that so. Yeah.
OK, Davis would save us. Through 8 rounds, has there been
any pick that you guys would have done differently that
someone else has made so far? I probably would have.
I'm such an ADP slappy. No, I probably would have taken
JSN, but I didn't want. I wouldn't have wanted to.
Would you have taken Henderson or did you have taken someone
else? There, no, no, I would have
taken Camaro. Yeah, OK.
I would I would have been on the Henderson side.
I've I've done enough Camaro for one lifetime.
When you time out on Camara, it's tough to take him after
that well. What's the what's the
difference? How many BBM camaras with this?
It would be taking him in 72 BBMS to get up to our dollar
exposure in a main event. And really, in terms of like
money, in terms of like the ability to actualize the money,
it's actually so much more, so much easier to actualize the
money in the main event. Yeah, because you get a prize
for winning your league. That we've never, we have never
experienced that, but that's. That's cool.
That's the. Case you guys have never.
Won a course. They told us about that.
That we have, but not at a high enough rate there.
Why is it, why is it before, before last year, we, the group
of guys that I'd done it in, we, we were winning our leagues at a
35% clip. Wow, last.
Year, last year, last year didn't go so great.
What are the your your Silva crew one?
No, the a bunch of guys, we've been doing this since 2018.
We did one entry and we've been going off that entry since then.
Like like 10 old daily roto subscribers.
We like all did one together, then won a ticket and then have
never cashed out since then. We've just been rolling teams
and credits over since then. Nice.
Well, I hope you guys are prepared to.
Well, buddy, we went we. Went.
We went one for 9:00 last year. That's tough.
That is the. That's what happens with the
martingale strategy is eventually it doesn't work or
or. Hear me out.
It goes the other way. You know what?
The new big beautiful bill. It actually wants you guys to
martingale more. You should keep your money.
Zero or what? Or bank, Yeah.
Zero or bank, Yeah. Yeah, this is that's what this
bill is doing is instead ofizing way more aggressive and reckless
gambling. Congratulations, Congress.
Great job. It actually, so I for the bit, I
actually really should have taken Mahomes there because it
would have polarized you guys into just like the worst picks.
Oh it we're. Trying to think Davis this
isn't. Like, but it would have been, it
would have been a really good, it would have been a really good
bit for Pete to have had to select Jalen.
Pete has one paperwork. Exactly you're doing.
It to yourself. Pete's final pick is Round 15,
and he's like, all right, Jalen Royals.
It would just be you. You'd just be like, oh God, I
guess juju because we're doing juju here.
The yeah, I think having the, I think this will probably work a
little bit better from the middle of the board slot, just
you get a little bit more kind of choose your own adventure.
I feel like sometimes at the turn, the decisions are actually
kind of limited. Yeah, for sure.
And we're not trying like we haven't done any big reaches so.
Well. Let's see, yeah.
Well, here's the thing too, I I got to know if I'm drafting with
Davis Matic or Dave Matic, is it 8.3% or 2020 four 25% Davis?
Like I don't know which one I'm welcoming on to my account with
this bullet. I don't know.
Look at David's. I don't know if he.
Doesn't even know I was thinking.
Figuring it out right now, this is.
This is more Dave. Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, you got a spin. It beat.
Oh yeah, you're right. Sorry, I kind of checked out now
that I'm done making. Yeah, you.
I know, but you want me to keep Davis?
We're. Getting.
Davis Davis OK a lot of late round picks for me A.
Lot of pressure here. This is a very high.
Pressure. This is a, this is.
I was going to say, this is where drafts really start to it.
Really is, and it's a good thing that Davis is going to be the
one piloting us. A Davis double tap in the.
I, you know what it's funny is I could, I could kind of totally
fuck us here by just not having a quarterback at all.
Do. You want to fuck everything is
Davis? We're time to win WrestleMania.
How about you don't fuck us? How?
About you. Oh shit, Purdy went.
Oh no all. Right, that was yours.
What are you? What are you thinking here?
I need the sidekick up what? It's pretty quick doing.
What are you thinking? You're now outsourcing your pick
2 packs all right. Show me your wide receivers.
There ain't Rashad. Bateman No, no, I meant our wide
receivers. Oh, sorry.
Brian Thomas, junior of Juan Jennings.
Take just take Ingram next. Ingram Next.
Yeah, OK. This is like Pat takes Trevion
Henderson to get Drake May and Davis takes Bonex and Evan
Ingram to set up Marquis Brown as the bring back in Week 2.
No, I I did this just because I'm thinking that this will be
the hardest thing to like do telepathically to like set up
our stacks and Purdy went, Baker went.
This would be reaching on Lawrence.
Reaching on it. Reaching on goth it it just, it
was all that was all. You could have done Burden Caleb
too. That's what I thought.
What I would have done but was. Burden, Caleb.
One O 9, one O 9 is just like now like a straight up bad price
on burden relative to like. There are teams that are getting
him at 132, like regularly. My goal is to have a big bag of
burden in the hundreds, so I'm not going to get too caught up
on. How it's dude, how the, how the
turntables. I couldn't even convince you to
like, mention Luther Burden's name six months ago.
I don't think I was that bearish I.
Six months ago, I was. I think maybe correctly like not
at that into him at the first round prices.
He does fall to the second rounds at the of the NFL draft.
I think there were some underrated red flags, but look,
you're looking at him now going in the tenth round of these
drafts like he's a really, really high upside player.
Yeah, but it's I, I think it's, I don't know, maybe maybe it's
maybe it's a little bit of over correction now because I just,
I'd like, I remember I was streaming on Tuesday, I think.
And I, I, I actually saw him go like in the middle of the 12th
and I was like, OK, that that is too much.
Like that is obviously a giant buy spot.
Davis in in February if I told you that in July we were going
to have Luther Burden available after J.
I'd say I'd say 100, like literally 100%.
Expected you'd want like I'd have to like hold you back from
from like drafting all the burden.
Like I think we've just gotten it's the frog who's getting
boiled like we've just gotten used to falling burden price.
It's crazy like compared to what we thought of the prospect
profiles and then the draft capital's equivalent.
It's not like it's not like he's a third round pick and, and
Higgins is a first, you know, or Harris is a first.
These these guys have they were drafting around too, both of
them. And we were way more excited,
way more excited about burden before the draft.
So I don't know. I, I just think the goal right
now is to get a lot of burden. And if you if you get someone
10s burden, great. If you get someone 30s burden,
even better. But I'm trying to get a lot of
burden. Yeah, two things I do like the
the Knicks Ingram tap there you get Nicks at a discount.
Actually do like it. Like those.
Yeah. Yeah, I do.
Like it. I also will say I was in on
burden ever since David Kitchen's boss tweeted out in
all caps Luther Burden wide receiver one and then walked it
back slightly and said his model has a wide receiver 2 but.
That was when I. Was it all right?
Let's spin. The post draft model I believe
was also I think Adam. Here's the team real quick for
the audio listeners. Bonex at quarterback Bruce Hall,
Trevion Henderson, Tony Pollard at running back, Aman Raw, Brian
Thomas, JSN Jawan, Jennings, Buka and Ingram at tight end.
Pat is going to have the next pick.
Man, I don't even remember how to draft anymore, it's been so
long. Pat.
Double tap, huh? Oh no, right in Drake may range
too. God, no.
No, the room, The room ain't the room.
Ain't gonna do that. OK, Drake Bay's already gone,
all right? Drake Bay's gone.
What's the point? I don't even care.
You guys pick? Look at this.
This is the the Drake May Romandre Stevenson the rare.
That's the right wing slappy way to stack Drake May.
Can I see what's available here? Yes, Marvin Mims is part of our
Denver Stack Christian. What other quarterbacks are
there? JJ McCarthy, Lawrence.
Running backs. Tua running backs, you're
looking at Ray Davis, Trey Benson, Rashad White, Gorendo,
Jayden Blue who you love. Tight ends.
Tight ends Janu No. Tucker, Kraft, Colson, Loveland.
Feels like a tough spot here. The man.
Let me. See running back again, there's
no running backs left. That's a great deal.
Take JJ McCarthy. I think we need the second
quarterback. That's the most important thing
do. We have a Viking.
We don't, but I'm just, I'm just making sure we don't get.
Boxed there. What are you doing, dude?
Taking JJ dudes. How is this win?
Wait, no, we take Lawrence Travis.
I I overruled you with your own. Yeah, Thomas Junior.
I would have I I would Corrine that was.
What? Do you want that?
Was too sweaty. I do not want Marvin Mims.
Get him out of here. Let me see the running backs.
Dorundo take Ray Davis. OK.
That that right there we might win $1,000,000 split three ways
subtracted by a 90% tax. And when we go back and look at
that team, that is going to have been.
I literally completely forgot about the Lawrence Brian Thomas.
I forgot we had Brian Thomas. Yeah, that would have been.
Devastating. That was my bad guy.
Question is, if I didn't get it in in time, would we have gone
Lawrence right there as the third quarterback or how would
we have played that? I think we would have gone
Lawrence is the third quarterback probably and then
tried to backstack JJ with something or maybe we don't
even. I just think like I, I stand by
that like quarterback was clearly the pick there.
But I'm sorry for blanking that we had Brian Thomas.
Pete, you have to remove one of your picks from the wheel.
This is the true no good deed goes on punish.
You know what? I'm really glad that you did
that. But but you're right, Davis.
Is wrong I I think I agree now that I actually think about that
Peach just got changed to pat yeah I.
Had it was a great pick. Thank you.
Very good use of your final. Pick it was.
It was 100% better than trying to backstack Gigi McCarthy.
Tyler says it's someone fully aware of a Apollo 11 emergency.
Save Pete is the flight director smoking a cigar as job well done
the crew made at home. I've literally been watching the
rehearsal and you, you were the copilot who took the controls.
That's a good sign. It's a good sign of our
communication that you felt comfortable taking the controls
there. And are you Nathan Fielder, who
was on doing your first commercial?
I was Nathan Fielder. Yeah, I was Nathan Fielder.
Completely forgot to put the the Trevor Lawrence Brian Thomas
junior flaps up. And and Pat, what does Nathan
Fielder ask his copilot in that scene?
He says, does it land just like it does in the SIM?
You were outside of your SIM and got worried.
That's right, I've been spending spending time with the SIM here.
I'm out here flying solo but not but not solo because Pete got
grabbed the controls all. Right, we're back.
I'll send this comment here. I did do best ball Jeopardy
yesterday, and there were tons of positional rankings, and Tom
is saying that I owe Davis an apology, that he got me thinking
about positional ranks. Goddamn.
All right, Davis has this next pick.
And then there are three Pats, 1 Davis and one Pete here.
And it is going to be a Pat, probably my vacated Pete pick.
So Davis first, let's let's recap the team for everyone,
both the audio listeners and the hosts, Bo Nicks and Trevor
Lawrence, Breece Hall, Trevion Henderson, Tony Pollard, Ray
Davis. I'm on Raw BTJJSN, Jawan
Jennings, Ameka Buca and Evan Ingram.
Bonex, Evan Ingram doing a lot of work on this team.
Actually, we because the hardest thing to do when you're doing
these group ones is to correlate in a way that makes sense for
everyone. Show me the running backs, put
Bigsby in the queue for my pick, and then show me the wide
receivers. I guess we do have Trevor
Lawrence, Pat Bryant. Yeah, give me Bigsby, Bigsby,
Bigsby for my pick. Pat, is this your first Bigsby
share? I have taken him like once I I'm
starting to warm up to him a little bit as the the the talk
around Tooting gets like a little bit less positive little
shake here. Who do you want I?
Think he could end up beating out ETN as a runner, I'll take
Pat Bryan. I was hoping you'd say that that
would have been my pick. So it's almost like I got my
pick back Tank Bigsby, Pat Bryant doubling down with both
of our quarterbacks there, Bo Nicks to Pat Bryant and Trevor
Lawrence with BTJ and Bigsby. Well done fellas, well done.
Feels good. Why is why?
Why is the legendary upside conglomerate so anti tank?
We're a little less anti tank now.
I I adjusted him a bit. This just does seem to be moving
towards. Him so bullish on Tooten.
Bullishness on Tooten and the thinness of the path for Tank
where I think he really is a 2 down runner type, but he was
good last year as a runner. Like I was just kind of
revisiting where he was at last year and I think we probably,
you know, penalized him maybe too much for the bad rookie year
and kind of the initial ranks because he was actually pretty
efficient. The upside case really would be
kind of Chuba, you know that he's he just emerges as like the
clear cut best runner. Chuba was a pretty good runner
two years ago and then last year was incredibly efficient as a
runner. And maybe you do see Tank take a
step forward. That's actually strong showing
last year. That's a really good comp
actually in terms of like expected production for me.
We were also too low on chuba last year.
So that's when I was kind of revisiting stuff.
I'm like I feels a little chuba in the upside case, which is one
that I was sleeping on last year.
So let me let me just kind of revisit what we have and ended
up raising him a bit. Still not someone I'm like super
excited about. And I think you can you can
arbitrage him and there's a number of different ways to to
play the Jaguars. And Tooten still is actually my
favorite way, even though I think he's a little bit riskier
than I was hoping he would look like by now.
But he's definitely more on the menu than I was thinking.
I just want to fade ETN and he's the guy that's already on the
team. He, he and Tooten I think are my
2 most drafted running backs. Yeah, ETN goes top 100 in this
draft. Pick 97.
Yeah, the the ETN rise based off nothing, but like vaporware, not
sure, not sure what's going on there.
Yep. All right.
So we are at positionally 2561 Nicks and Lawrence doing good at
running back, Breece, Trevion, Pollard, Ray Davis, Bixby 6 wide
receivers, those 5 early ones Amanra, BTJJSN, Juan Jennings,
Ibuka tack on Pat Bryant and then Evan Ingram here at tight
end. I think it is time to spin four
more picks left 2 Pats, 1 Davis and a Pete No.
There's no Pete. There's no Pete.
There's one Pete left. I had two picks left.
I forfeited one of mine and now I have one.
I don't think you did. I made 4 picks, I forfeited the
5th and I have my 6th. I remember my picks.
Stop trying to. Box the best picks on the team,
Pat. Not today, Davis.
Beautiful not. Today.
Well, days. All right, there you go, Pat.
You have the next pick. You got a big, beautiful, big
one pick and then you want me to get rid of another?
One, yeah, I don't want, I want sick of sick of this, Pete
Picks. Well, look who's back, bitches.
Which one have you won? The first one?
I don't even remember now Who? Who has 1512?
I I do, I think Pat does, yeah. Oh these are about to be some
Burchard Smith ass pics for me at the end.
Wow, Sam Darnold goes at 176. Yeah, we're all trying.
We're all trying to find the member of this three person
panel wearing the hot dog suit for that.
God, got to stack him up with Cooper Cup, I guess.
All right, Pat, you're looking at best available.
The quarterbacks. It's down to Gino and Aaron
Rodgers. We get sniped on Bretton
Strange, these fucks. Miles Sanders.
Yeah. Tight ends Pat Farm with Mason
Taylor Chig, Dalton Schultz. You have fun with that.
I'm going to take Miles Sanders. All right, you're going to do
Miles Sanders and then leave the tough stuff to me.
We have Breece Hall, we have Trevion Henderson.
Let's get Mason Taylor as our second tight end here.
Check the bye weeks 12. And nine, cool.
All right, 2662 with two more picks remaining.
And I. You have one of them and Davis
has or Pat has one. The question is, is are we doing
a third quarterback on this team?
But there's not going to be 1 left in the new legendary upside
economy. What is what is that economy,
Davis? More 300.
Percent 100% tariff on every quarterback after quarterback
22. We all agreed it was a great
year where there's a shit load of quarterback values and
wouldn't you know it, actually taking a third quarterback in
that environment looks good. Well, you know what?
I I am betting pretty heavily that when if Mr. Shady Advice
and Mr. Sacrilegious do another run and they start inputting Sam
Darnold at pick 176 and Cam Ward in the 13th round every time.
We're doing runs every day. We're doing The Sims are
updated. Yeah, I bet it's.
Going to look. A lot different.
It honestly might start to look different once, especially once
the late rounds solidify. Yeah, yeah, Solidify, get some
more concrete bets in there. I think it could end up looking
different, yeah. Yes, yeah, I was thinking, I was
hoping 1 of Darnold or Strange would fall there for either the
third quarterback stacked or Strange with the Jags and then
it kind of wiped out a lot of the the onesie angles.
Still can't believe you had to save me on that Trevor Lawrence
pick. That's that's incredible.
Oh, Crane, do you know do you? A huge call back from Shooby in
the chat. Our literal biggest disagreement
of all time? Albert O versus.
Albert O versus Greg Dalton. Shooby calling Miles Sanders a
false flag operation. I I don't understand the
connection there. For Jayden Blue, Jayden Blue is
really the starter and Miles Sanders is the false flag.
How? How can the how can the false
flag be the one that goes 4 rounds after the non false flag?
Well, the fault the original false flag was Dulcich going
ahead of Alberto or behind. No, Dulcich was a fourth round
rookie tight end. He, he didn't he like didn't
exist. Right.
If it was Alberto. So who's going first?
All right, 2020. What was this, 2023?
I'm sure Alberto was going first, I think.
He was no, no, no. But now I now I need to know.
Now I need to know. Dulcich's rookie year was 2020.
Two. My God, we've been doing this
for a long time. 2022 best ball mania ADP.
Was that the year you won? I won in 2023, yeah.
It was the 2022 season, yeah. All right, 2022 ADP Albert Akui
Boonum was going on average as the 15th tight end off the board
to pick 145. False flag.
Flag done false. Well, the flag had a point.
I think the flag had some good good points he was making.
Frankly, you would have been proven even more correct than
you were had he never injured his hamstring.
Sure. All right, final picks, Pat and
Davis duking it out to land the plane.
On this team. It's going to be Davis 1st and
then Pat with Mr. Irrelevant if you guys need a recap of the
team. No.
Show me the running backs please.
We have 6 running backs, do I need to show you them?
Yes. Why do I need to show you
running backs? We got fucking six of them.
The guy I want got picked anyway.
Can I go back to filter? How many?
We need Can I see the receivers please?
Fairly, Richard. Smith I refuse.
That is not how it works, Peter. He's gone.
Thank. Thank you to the hero who took.
For sure. That's not how it works.
Yeah, Pete, you're out of picks. You're out of picks to just come
in and. All right, who's on the clock?
Davis. Davis.
Who do you want? What's?
Our quarterbacks. We have no next and Trevor
Lawrence. Give me, you know what?
Give me Anthony Richardson. Yeah, little, little bring back.
Yeah, I like it. All right, Pat, how are you
landing this plane? So we got Evan Ingram and Mason
Taylor tight end. Yeah.
Give me Troy Franklin. Feet.
Feet do not defy the spirit of the draft.
This is my thing, Roy Franklin. Pete, Pete is such an advance
rate bro. He was like, dude, we got to go.
3663 here. I want you to know, I want you
to know that that pick was your doing because you took you took
three players of the week 8 by. And so I wanted that.
I wanted that stacked Week 12 by Troy Franklin to hit our lineup
during the bye week. What about in week 12 when our
only tight end is Mason Taylor? How did?
You. Well, you.
That's your pick. You also picked.
That guy I'd like something went wrong here.
I think it was the Mile Sanders pick honestly.
The Mile Sanders pick was just not needed when mile.
Sanders needed to be a tight end.
When you when you have. Tony Pollard, I wasn't inspired
by those tight ends. Well this was when we got 2
picks on Brett and Strange and then I had to.
Yeah, I mean, I wanted Strange, obviously.
What was I supposed to do? Take Chigg.
Take. Derryn by Sanders was fine,
honestly. Like, look, there's like
Briarmouth and Chigg are the next two tight ends off the
board after Taylor and I figured you would take a tight end
because we we only had one. Yeah, you boxed me into.
I boxed you in. Yeah, I.
Think you guys were just fucking going up to like get our
groceries for the week and get an ice cream cones and I have to
actually have to go buy some vegetables for the house?
That's exactly what happened, no?
Sanders. Sanders was.
I went. And bought all the beer.
Well, there's a huge drop off. It would have been very nice,
obviously, to get Brenton Strange.
Maybe Pat Bryant should have just been Brenton Strange.
That there's an argument for that.
Yeah, if I knew Pat was coming, they could go Leroy Jenkins with
Troy Franklin. I've I did pivoted the strange
or Pat Bryant the strange. Yeah, I think, I think Strange
there would have been better, and that was mine, so I can't.
It's not all Pete's fault. Did it end like this?
All right, let's see here. I just love like you acted all
chill about the week 8 by thing and then at the very end you
were like, I'm so worried about it that this.
No, no, I was. I was just up a total log to
take Franklin. The minute Davis did that Nicks
Ingram thing that's with this many late round picks, I was
like. Nicks Ingram Nicks Ingram bailed
us out. No, I'm into it.
I'm. Very.
What do you think? Looking back, what do you think
this team needed more, the QB three or the tight end 3?
I think the QB 3 is fine. It needed Darren Waller is what
it needed. Yeah.
I think Ingram has like enough kind of like consistency to to
where if he's worth, I mean, that's a pretty, as we talked
about, that was a pivot point for the draft.
So if that pivot point pays off, he's going to draw targets
consistently enough that I, I don't know if like adding a
Dalton Schultz or whatever else is really adding that many
points to the roster. And so I don't know Richardson.
The the answer to the question is, does Richardson play this
year? Because if Richardson plays like
a decent amount he adds more points I think.
That's what I'm trying to be a little bit less, but cowardly
drafter. And part of that has to be like,
is there anything more waving the white flag than taking
Daniel Jones, who you think stinks?
I think he's pretty decent in superflex.
I bet he's he's also yes he's going to start a bunch of games
and could end up being a star at the end of the.
Season, but he's actually not that cheap in the Superflex.
Drafts anymore. Do you know what we did get on
this team? We got a ton of really nice
playoff correlations, too. Obviously Lawrence and
Richardson in Week 17, but then Lawrence plays Bone Knicks in
Week 16, we get Anthony Richardson opposite Jawan.
Lawrence plays our Jets guys in Week 15, Richardson opposite JSN
in 15, so all kinds of cross. Pollination.
We've got The Jets, Patriots, Little Mini going.
Yelp. Reese, Paul.
Mason, Taylor, Trivian, Henderson.
Yep. Some we've got Jacksonville
stacked up Bigsby Brian Thomas. We didn't get strange, but
that's nice. And then we have the honestly, I
Richardson does not typically get talked about like a bring
back, but I think he kind of is like.
I think he is, yeah. Yeah.
You want him monopolizing the production and then the Jags
being forced to play catch up mode.
Totally. All right, let's see here.
Let's I'll recap the the full team here though.
So we end up with A3672. This is we need a name for what?
What kind, how what should we call 'cause it's not, it's not
true randomizer. It's kind of like a pass the
baton kind of thing. The relay.
The relay, yeah. It's a relay, but it's like.
Chaotic relay. It's.
A chaotic relay yeah, the relay would imply it's like 6-6.
You know, we all do our. A randomized relay.
Randomized relay, yeah. Yeah, we'll work.
Yeah. Tag, tag team.
Something with chaos in there. Here's the team, though.
Bonex, Trevor Lawrence, Anthony Richardson.
Imagine if this team had JJ McCarthy, Breece Hall, Trevion
Henderson, Tony Pollard, Ray Davis, Tank Bigsby, Miles
Sanders, Amon Ross, St. Brown, Brian Thomas, JSN Jawan
Jennings and Mecca Buka, Pat Bryant, Troy Franklin, tight end
Evan Ingram and Mason Taylor. You know the other thing this
made me think of? Remember, Pat, I remember we we
did this like when we were in Nashville way back for the draft
life final. We would just like build Millie
maker teams and you just pass the phone around and everyone
puts in a player. But that's always the best ball
equivalent of. This the best, yeah, yeah, I
mean we, I mean it's like what we do for the FFPC stuff, you
know, we'll, we're we'll just pass it around.
Everyone puts their for the playoff contest, I mean.
Yes, exactly. Davis thoughts on this team?
Honestly, could have just been so much worse.
Like that could have been a let me tell you, this team with JJ
McCarthy, Ty Felton and Josh Oliver on it is way, way worse
than than what it ended up being.
And I like, I like Mason Taylor as a tight end too.
I'm not as worried about the tight ends as Peter.
And you're talking about the running back or the wide
receiver too on the New York Jets.
Not as bad of a situation as you, you might think.
And running back in. Defense of in defense of my JJ
McCarthy brain fart. I actually don't know if the
team's that much worse with the fully unstacked McCarthy and
Lawrence. And then we go like cuz we go
the third quarterback. The third tight end.
With Yeah, yeah, we get the and then, you know, we don't, we
don't stack McCarthy, but we didn't stack Richardson either.
So you. Know very very similar profiles.
It's basically the same guy. It's pretty much the same guy.
So don't worry about, don't think about it any further than
that. But yeah, very thankful we ended
up on on Lawrence there. That was big.
Let's see here Tom wants us to roast his draft.
He was out of the seven hole. What is your name, Tom?
So she it's just. It's just champ.
Oh, good call. Duh.
All right, So he did Jalen Hurts and Brock Purdy.
He has CMC, Chase Brown, Aaron Jones, Will Shipley and Dylan
Sampson. I'm.
Preemptively worried about your receivers?
A.J. Brown, Jalen Waddle, Chris
Godwin, Khalil Shakur, Luther Burden, Jack Bash.
Oh, way to pander to. The pander to the crowd.
Uncorrelated Uncorrelated. Ray Ray McLeod.
Jump scare. Jump scare.
No dude, little bring back dude. This is the mini correlation.
Tutu Atwell, Ray Ray McLeod Tutu Atwell Raymade our Generation's
Hurts. Algier.
Dude, look at this ADP value. If you got on Johnny Smith, ADP
129 scoops him up at 160. Two scoops him, scoops him up,
man. I I like this team.
I think a solid team there. I mean, you get the stack with
Hertz. That's that's nice.
Bertie McCaffrey, does he have a 49er?
No, but that's fine. Pretty McCaffrey.
I mean, that's you're going to feel good a lot of weeks rolling
both guys, both guys out there and.
He's got burden on the bring back there.
Burden on the bring back, yeah. I he's got Shakur on the Philly
bring back. So we got a, we got a week 17
bro in our midst. I'm not sure what Ray Ray McLeod
does. I mean, we were we were taking
some Ray Ray back in the day. But once Cadaryl Hodge it gets
it gets a a blurb of any kind, you gotta you gotta ease.
You know what this strikes me as?
This is someone who just drafted Luther Bird and and Jack Besh
and it's like, fuck. Oh no, these guys are probably
zeros until Week 12. And he's like Tutu and Ray.
Ray, come on down. Tutu and Ray Ray are definitely
starting. Honestly, Pete, you know what
it? It feels like that he was doing
a relay draft of his own and that and that.
So he's out here doing burden. He passed.
Baton to Leone for those last two.
He was like, wow. We might can't count on much
production early on. And he's the one who sniped
Brock from us. Will Shipley as part of the the
Hurt stack too. I always like those stacks where
you get the the running back, the wide receiver, and the tight
end from the team. Obviously doesn't have Kittle
here, but pretty close with the the Philly and San Fran stacks.
Yeah. Good job champ.
Living up to your name, unlike Pat and I.
You guys want to see some good CLV on Jonnu?
Let's check out best ball breakfast on Monday.
Took him. Did you guys, did you guys take
him right before the trade? No my my my it was after and got
auto drafted him. We wanted Lawrence.
We had Lawrence. Like Lawrence was a clear cut
pick for this team and just autodraft.
Goddess man, the Internet went out.
Pete's Internet went out. Internet troubles.
So I will say it was not my Internet.
You can slander my computer not being able to handle it.
It was the computer crashing. Shout out to Xfinity, Comcast, a
company I just love so much. Yes, it was not easy this time.
I will say, Pat, I feel like your your Internet in your New
York setup has been like better than your traditional.
I mean, you've been fine in San Diego, but you've had no tech
issues. Really.
Actually, no. You had the you couldn't hear
shit on Tuesday. I couldn't hear stuff.
Occasionally it will be really bad where one person I can't.
It's like one person's Internet is bad for me, but it's because
of my Internet. It's really weird because
everyone else will be fine, but it happened with Sacrilegious
when we were doing the pod as well.
The the I ran it, I I got like 100 foot Ethernet cable and ran
it across the apartment and it's just like it's been in New York.
In New York. Yeah.
So it's been like, we have it like tucked, but you know, it's
just kind of, it's not the cleanest thing of all.
It's not the cleanest set up of all time.
But I was just like, it can't, I got in here.
The Wi-Fi I, I did an ADP chasing, I think, and it was
bad. Like I was going between the
Wi-Fi and to like my hotspot to try it because I was like, this
is, I can't hear anyone. It's not working.
And the hotspot was also terrible.
So I just I got an Ethernet cord and it's been pretty good since.
I did that. Move the last.
You could have possibly predicted that Ethernet would
work better than vague Wi-Fi waves that no one really
understands floating through the fucking air.
Who could have guessed? Have you really been podcasting
and doing your your whole? Whatever you call this fucking
career, well, I'm sitting. Yeah, on San Diego, In San
Diego, I'm basically sitting by the router so I can just do a
little short Ethernet going right to the computer.
Oh, but it is wired. It is on, It is wired, but I'm
saying it's not like a whole thing.
And then my old apt, I think it was, yeah.
I don't know if I was ever on Ethernet because it was.
It took forever. Christ you know is a long way
long ways away now Davis, I feel like this rant would be better
if you had the wired air pods in.
I just think it would it would hit more.
If I if I was like, dude, you're sticking Bluetooth waves in your
head. No, I don't care about that.
I mean, it probably is messing up my brain and giving me
cancer. I think Aaron Rodgers probably
right about that. But really, you guys know?
That is the one. There's actually some evidence
that. It I'm just like, I'm just like,
yeah, like Aaron Rodgers is an idiot, but he is probably right
about. That like, let's just be.
Let's just be. So serious that sticking
Bluetooth waves in your ears is probably not that you.
Know it does seem like it could. Be do.
You know how close that is to your brain?
Dude, you're talking millimeters away from your brain.
Now I know what you meant when you said you were the Infowars
of fantasy football today. Point being, I am all about
convenience. I just need things to work.
Got to do the got to do the 100 foot Ethernet cable.
The the last time I did that move, it was back like during
COVID and we were at my in laws house.
And I remember doing like a couple randomizers there because
I don't know how the, the schedule fell.
And while I was there like over the summer and I had to do the
same thing where I just bought an Ethernet cable.
They're like, what are you doing?
As I string this like 100 foot Ethernet cable from your
downstairs router up to like the guest bedroom.
I'm like, trust me, I, I can't, I can't deal with your Wi-Fi.
It's just got to be done. I.
Will I'll probably, I'll probably bring my Ethernet cord
on this vacation to the lake because you never know.
Is this the when? Yeah.
So Speaking of which, there's going to be no ship chasing next
Thursday. I'm actually going to go down to
New York, hang out with Pat in Leone.
Maybe we can get you guys a photo in in replacement of an
episode. And Davis, are you travelling
next week too? I leave on Friday.
OK, Davis. Davis wants to roll solo ship
chasing or bringing gas. You're you're more than welcome
to if you'd like, or you can take it off.
I'll probably just stream on my channel at the same time.
Maybe I'll just do like a 7 hour stream or something next
Thursday. There you go.
I said you could do a one hour stream and you said I'll do a 7
hour stream buddy. OK.
So yeah, ADP chasing though, we'll be back.
I'm going to post the minisode, the final one either tomorrow or
Saturday so you guys can look forward to that 45 minutes
breaking down the final roster in the FFPC main event.
Pat, what should people be looking out for on Leg up this
week? Yeah, still have an article from
Matt Irby and Michael Dubner that'll both be hitting the site
soon and still got a trial going for the Sidekick.
If your Leg Up subscriber, easiest thing to do is e-mail me
at legendaryupside@gmail.com. I'll get you set up for the five
day free trial for the sidekicks.
You can test out The Sims, test out the alternate formats,
dialed in recommendations for different advanced structures
and final sizes. And if you're not signed up for
Leg Up, you can just head on over to the site, sign up for
the Sidekick tier, and it'll come with a 5 day free trial.
So yeah, highly recommend doing that.
And that's it. Davis, what about you?

For me, yeah. Nothing.
Tomorrow everybody enjoy the 4th a basketball breakfast on
Monday. Josh Norris going to be our
rotating guest there after usual drafts with Pat and Leonie.
