The time has come ladies and gentlemen.
It is time for us to start ripping off some live main event
drafts in the FFPC as we chase that $1,000,000 top prize.
We're going to have a bunch of these coming up over the month
of August and tonight we are joined by Ron Stewart.
You guys know him on the program.
Being a self hating Jets fan. We're finally going to get to
draft a team with him here tonight in the main event.
We got Davis, we got Jacob, we got Pat.
I'm Pete with Ron Stewart. It's the season.
Let's go. Pat.
Fryer, Helmo, 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 got Jacob tapping in.
We got Ron here. We got a draft board, fellas.
Draft kicking off here in about 20 seconds.
Ron, guest of honor. How you doing tonight?
I'm doing great, it's very cool. First draft with the ship
chasing boys here. Not to get weird but this is
what was kind of my introduction to ship chasing and kind of like
the whole 0 RB was back in the day, delivering pizzas,
listening to ship chasing streams on your podcast feed.
So very cool to now be here. Beautiful Jacob, I'm not used to
podcasting with you normally. Just see you on on ADP chasing.
Welcome to the the bright lights of the flagship ship chasing
show. Yeah, I mean, much like Ron,
it's it's my first live primetime draft as a part of
ship chasing. Truly, truly living out a dream.
You know, some people's dream is to be in the NFL.
My dream is to draft teams on YouTube with Peter Overset, Pack
Brain and Davis Maddock. Yeah.
And if our slow main event draft that we're currently doing with
Steph Miller right now is any indication, we are in for just a
night of complete agreement and no debates and everything.
Jacob The. Thing is that Jacob has taken
2024 did different things to Jacob and I I re evaluated, I
went. And seems Jacob seems kind of
like like he always has to me. Oh, Jacob Pugge.
Jacob Pugge. Hard I view players.
All right. We'll pick him in I.
I was slapping that. I'm slapping now, Ronald.
Martin Dale Davis. Have you ever heard of it?
Rod, what's your wish list here at Next?
And I think Davis and I are particularly afraid because we
have 100% Brock Bowers exposure and we're looking for some
diversity. So do me and Pat, but we're less
afraid. Yeah, I'm just not afraid of
that. That sounds great.
Sounds like a fun year. I.
Think I think Bowers is on my wish list.
That's the first floor picks. Chase Barkley, Gibbs, Robinson.
What do you got in you? Mathematics?
What do you got in on you? Dude he's for sure taking
Jefferson. Just put Bowers in the queue.
Man. C Lamb.
Take CD. Lamb, Rod.
No, I took powers. Come on.
No. Come on, many men pushed that
upon me. Natural diversification.
Fucking tear anymore, I take back all the excitement that I
had about. Tonight, Lamb, Jefferson,
McCaffrey. What do you like?
Ryan, I vote. McCaffrey.
I vote lamb. All right.
You know what? I'll vote McCaffrey to throw a
wrench in it. Peter, you're the tie break.
Lambert, Lamprey. I've I've always got a side with
our guest of honor here so CD Lambert is.
Fairpoint, let's just draft a good team, fellas.
Hey, Jacob and I just Jacob and I just reached across the aisle.
That was like the that was like the the Arnold.
And what's his name? I don't know if that's I don't
think Jacob was reaching across the aisle.
I think he's pre empting things he doesn't want you to.
Do no, I was I I was reaching across the aisle partially
because I'm fading McCaffrey and BBM because of the stance that I
have that he's like the best format pick possible for the
main event, but like the worst format pick for BBM.
So I I wanted McCaffrey there, but Lance a great pick.
I do think that's going to be the odds.
Like if we're doing like a political alignment of like who
agrees with who the most, like a series of Venn diagrams, the
chances that me and Davis would vote together but not end up on
the same on the correct pick. Incalculable.
No, really, really high.
Like so high actually. Well, that's.
Because Mavis is a paper bag floating in the wind.
So like that's that's. Not true.
Crane nailed it. It's a plastic bag, yeah.
You know, Crane, you, you nailed me exactly the other day.
I've lost my extremist tendencies to either wing, but
I'm still the blindest seal, so I'm.
Just a centrist. I'm just a centrist slap.
I'm just, you know, it's like. You guys have completely lost me
with this shit, man. Like I I saw like I saw Jacob
sub stack of the whole slap like it's you guys have gone too far.
This whole this whole thing. It has to end.
I, I, you, you completely. We've completely lost the plot
with the with the slap so. I think we're just getting
started, frankly. Yeah, I, I.
Feel like we got a lot more life in this bit.
You're you're talking to two guys who did an hour show
imitating like basically a fictional character mirroring
back at each. Other like.
The the bit can go deeper. I just want to kind of if we can
just nail down Davis a little more.
Davis, where are you at on Turkish Airlines?
Are you? Are you a big fan?
I don't think I have an. I don't think I have an opinion.
You've. Never.
You've never accepted free miles.
Oh, are we doing? Are we doing Eric Adams?
I was well, I was going to say I couldn't.
I could not. I could not remember the exact
Eric Adams scandal, honestly. There of which there have.
Been. Rent it was.
It was not befitting. A Premier Ashton, Gene T in the
first round. Do these dudes not watch the
preseason? They're part of the FF cartel,
so they might have bigger things on their plate than to be.
Correct. I love the way this looks right
now. What up, Henry?
Henry gone before we pick. It's beautiful.
Ron what was that would. Have looked pretty good if we
took Christian. McCaffrey, Ron.
Watch your your last screen that the main event stream you did
with Liam and Jacob. What was the biggest
disagreement you lost? No.
We, we've already lost already. We've already lost.
We me and Jacob signed we, we took Dylan Sampson over Basil 2
and and Liam's been on her ass the entire time.
Oh wow. Today.
And then today he, his son runs the Quinch on Yeah, just it's
just a yeah. Don't know, have you guys not
learned yet? Like even when Liam gets every
fact and and logic piece wrong, he gets there in the end I I
don't know why. That was my first message today.
I was like, it was actually so dumb to think that like we would
ever go against Liam when it comes to just benefiting from
the variance of unknowns like nobody.
Benefits from the. Variance of unknown like Murphy?
Come on. Really dumb for us, yeah.
And then like, and then we're just never going to hear the end
of it. Like he we have a group chat
where. Oh.
Yeah, the group chat. It's just.
It's the most adversarial main event group chat imaginable.
Like in like at no point are we ever aligned.
Like it's just constantly like trying to find ways to shift
blame on to each other for the team.
I I have Co owned a main event team with Liam and yeah,
basically, you know, weeks, weeks one through 15.
It is essentially like, well, you obviously should have just
done this thing that I suggested and I don't know why you would.
The other that's good healthy working relationship.
The one that we did with staff like made it even more tilting
because we must have argued about the pick which running
back to take for like 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
Was Judkins there with? The pick, yeah, he was.
That's why I was losing it. We end up we argue for like 3
hours and then we pick like straight up one minute before
the news breaks. Hey.
But think. Think about.
Think about all that fake CLV we got when we were on the clock
for for Darren Waller. What?
What is more prolific 16 round Liam public victory laps or Liam
private victory laps? Like is he just when he's done
bored with one of them on Twitter then he slides into the
DMS or it's hard to keep track? Hey, it was both he he
screenshotted his. Private victory laps come on and
then. Posted it on Twitter.
That's a double dip right there. That's so good.
This is the funniest dude alive, Liam.
He is the funniest. All right, so we're about to
pick in the middle of the second round.
We started CD Lamb since we picked CMC, Jefferson McBride, A
Chan, Gene T Henry, Neighbors, Amanrah, Puka, Nico for the Q
Drake London. So we're on deck.
So Brian Thomas, Chase Brown, A.J.
Brown, Bucky Ladd, Ron, what's your lean here as we're on deck?
I am praying we get Brian Thomas if I'm just being completely
transparent. Pick on the board.
I mean Davis listed. I mean not Davis.
Pete listed it. Yeah, it is what?
It is and then he and then he put me under the gun of asking
what I how I feel. Dude, if Rum Horse wants to step
in our house like that, let him let.
Him I can't do. That what's?
The point? You're watching a stream and
it's just like all the people be like, we're not going to talk
about who we want. That's what the fuck are we been
doing here? If Brian Thomas goes, do you
like AJB or would you pivot to a running back?
And he goes. Who would be the running back,
Bucky or Big Dog? No big dog.
Big. Dog's gone.
It'd be Bucky. Brown, Chase.
Brown, A.J. Brown.
I I nominate Chase Brown followed by A.J.
Brown. I like the Chase Brown call.
I'm leased into Chase I'd. Be.
I'd be AJ1 Bucky 2 Chase like a pretty distant three.
That's exactly how I feel. Break.
Break the tie. I'm done for Bucky.
Bucky's Bucky's fine by me. All right, we can do Bucky.
Bucky. It is CD Lamb, Bucky Irving
Start. Really frees up the shaheed pick
later. Three more of these I did I.
Did AI, did AI, did a big dog with basically the guy who
creates Tik Toks at ETR today, Dave.
They're like big social media guy.
And he told me that Shaheed is the like single biggest value
relative to like ADP to projection like in ETR stuff.
Who is shaheed? Yeah, well Shaheed is the most
ETRS pick I've ever seen in my gut.
Yeah, Shaheed's in your flex spot.
You've already lost. You mean?
You mean you've already won? No.
OK, can I? I actually like to address a
tweet from Jacob Sanderson, who was doing some pandering across
the aisle with his Auntie Bucky Irving stuff the other day.
It wasn't it. Was a misunderstood tweet a
deeply misunderstood? Tweet I I under.
I under I under I understood what you meant and I agreed with
the thesis of it. And the reason why I agreed with
the thesis of it is I think Sean Tucker is just actually better
at the game than Rashad White, and that Sean Tucker eating more
of the snaps is more likely to bigot more future snaps and
touches. Whereas if what the coaches are
seeing is Rashad White on 20% of the downs and Bucky Irving on
80% of the downs are like, yeah, we probably should just keep
giving Bucky Irving the ball. Whereas when we see Sean Tucker
get the ball, we're like, well, maybe we actually just give Sean
Tucker the ball some more. Yeah, I mean, that's that's
pretty much my tweet. My tweet was less about like a
good tweet, like anti Bucky. It was really more people will
react to this Rashad White injury like it's great for
Bucky, but I think it's like probably I think the range of
outcomes is wider. It includes some some good ones.
But I I do have concerns about letting Tucker get on the field.
I like having Rashad White as insulation for Bucky Irving but
it was it was more pro Tucker and anti white and like Bucky
neutral than it was. Trivia Trivia question More
fantasy points in Bucky Irving's first career start Bucky Irving
or Sean Tucker. Well, it was Sean Tucker.
It was Sean Tucker. Now you're pulling the Liam
where you're trying to double dip on your tweets you've
already made here and get some mileage out.
I actually don't think I've tweeted that.
That's just been my good. Maybe I did.
That's just been my good nugget. You've had a good nugget in your
head that you classify as a good nugget.
It's it's ended up on the X app, I promise.
I've also probably said it 19 times.
Davis, do you want to share your screen here so we can see your
Twitter feed that? Didn't you, didn't you just get
Bucky on our team? Why are you?
Why are you bashing Bucky? Oh, 'cause I preferred Chase
Brown. Oh, yeah, right.
Yeah, it's fair. Why?
Why to the anti Chase Brown cohort?
Why? Why are you guys not in on on
Chase right now? To me it's pro Bucky.
Yeah, I just like Bucky. Yeah, yeah, I like Bucky.
I'm like that's an elite football player.
Like at A.J. Brown, I'm like that's an elite
football player. And then Chase Brown is like an
elite workload and I think a a good football player.
That sums it up. What about what about Bucky?
You know, we have one year sample size of both Bucky, I
guess half a season sample size on essentially Chase Brown and
Bucky. Like what gives you confidence
that Bucky's so much better than Chase Brown?
The receiving stuff for me, which was awesome, and with the
part I would disagree with Jacob on, on the Rashad White injury,
is that his path to being like a truly winning back?
Is that he get some of that Rashad White receiving, He
really, really flashes the receiver.
He was already getting used around the goal line last year.
So that's the the element of his profile.
We need to see increase and year 2 backs is where we actually do
see that increase. It helps when the receiving back
also gets hurt to start the season.
So I think he could be in a true 3 down roll.
Obviously he's going to be spelled, he's not going to be
like 85% of snaps or whatever, but with his receiving ability,
he can be a legendary running back with, you know, 70%.
All right, we're about to pick here.
Really curious if this drafter goes Kittle.
Kittle is by far the ADP value. Kyron Garrett Wilson, JSN, Josh
Allen, Kenneth Walker are the next names up here.
Ron, you, you said you wanted to get Breece Hall on this team.
Just kind of get your jet here early.
Yeah, yeah, that's who, that's what I've been looking at.
Jet's. Whininger down, eh?
What's going on? I'm all.
I'm done with The Jets, man. I've already had enough.
Oh, yeah, Josh. All right, let's go Kittle.
Kittle, right? Kittle matching Kittle here.
Fuck yes. Davis, do you want to offer a
contrarian take just so we know that you're getting overruled?
Yeah, I would. I I probably sure I'd like Karen
Williams here. Wait, actually.
You're. Taking.
Karen over Kittle here. Like if your team, you're not
doing a bit, like you're just in the security and privacy of your
own. That's so that's what well, what
I'm trying to think through is 'cause I maybe not, maybe it is,
could I just I, I've, we've, we've hashed this out before.
Like I think Kittle gets a little dinged in this format.
I think he's like a better pick, an underdog, but.
We we got to also acknowledge we got it.
We we slurped the dipperino. We got the Dipperino, though.
Yeah, we got the Dipperino. Which Leoni, Which Leoni has led
me to believe is kind of the all important.
Yeah. The margin.
In every full, we got a 2 full round behind Brock and Trey.
So that that feels like the, IT feels like the differential in
how they work in the scoring format has been priced in.
Yes, Ron, how do you feel about the start Lamb, Bucky Kittle?
I like it I I do. I do wonder if I should have
said A.J. Brown just to get a a pure 0 RB
piss fest here. But I I think this is AI think
this is probably the the correct way to do it.
This this loads us up to do like Jacob.
This is a great burden team actually.
Yeah, what? Maybe let's not, you know, it's
one thing when Pete goes drawn like one pick before we're on
the clock and it's like, who do you like here?
Maybe. Maybe we don't signal who we
want 7 rounds from now in the middle third.
Pat, I DMD you, but can you mute when you're not talking?
We love Vivian, but just not this much.
Vivian actually wanted Kyron Williams there as well.
Vivian thought we actually selected Kyron Williams.
Someone needs to tell her we actually like ghetto.
It's fine. I, I, I realized this is
actually just like a dumb thing I've done, but like just
responding to the market with the contract extension for
Karen. Like I think we all agree the
Garrett Wilson, Marvin Harrison, JSN, Devante Adams tier has, has
sort of lost its luster for various reasons over the last
two weeks. And so there's been a natural
gravitational pull of the running backs coming up.
Trevion Henderson at 3:10. There you go there.
I'm still very in on Garrett, Garrett Wilson still.
I mean what else they going to do but just feed him?
Run the ball. When I see.
Trevon Henderson at 3:10. The only thing my voice can
muster is. That's all I say.
Too low, Too low. Well, The funny thing about this
show is if I if I would have floated Trevion Henderson 1/3
down back on the New England Patriots there, you guys have
been like, I don't know, maybe we'll think about it, but Kyron
Williams? Easily.
If it's if it's Trevion Anderson versus Kyron Williams, I'm not
giving that a single. 2nd off. If I if I had 100 teams and I
added to choose between Trevion Anderson and Kyron Williams 100
times, I would choose Trevion Williams every single time.
Davis that's. Who's Trevion Williams bro?
I'm. Oh, that's actually the that's
I. Hope that's out of Freudian
slower. Backup running back.
Dude, you're low on Kyron. Yeah, it would be.
It's like when April wants like, a chocolate chip cookie for
dessert and I settle for just giving her grapes even though
she doesn't need to have any more food.
That's what it would have been like, giving you a running back
there over Kittle Davis. I mean, Kittle, Kittle's a fine
pick that one. I don't, I don't.
I'm not mad about it. This is this is the saddest
tweet I've ever seen in my life or comment.
Waiting on Ron Stewart pick and the Husky 2 slow draft before I
go to bed. Pray he sees this.
I hope he sees this bro. I hope he sees this.
Bro I had a guy. I had a guy.
God, God bless him. I had a guy tweeting at me to
make Pomeranian 2 slow draft picks.
He was like, dude, come on, you got to get, you got to be making
your palm picks. Come on.
It's just reminded me to go and check my chow chows that are
still being slow drafted. Just got 174 Quinchon Judkins
baby, let's go. Damn dude.
How rich. Dude, that 8 hour timer is my
God-given right brother. I all my eliminator slows which
I joined at the same time. 75 of them are all at like pick 90 and
I cannot take advantage of the the Judkins slow draft news.
I feel awful about it. That's that's probably right.
About. I, I think I, I think I
literally ranked him at 90. That's like, literally, yeah.
But the whole point is that you want to get an 80, you want 80
value. Well, of course.
Yeah, I could draft him at pick 90 the rest of the summer.
Right, Right. OK.
Yeah, Fair, fair. Thank you.
Yes. Please say what I said was fair.
Well, I just. I misunder.
I misunderstood Balo's life. I've never said I hate slow
drafts. I I consider slow drafts a
blessing. I'm the only one who said I hate
slow drafts. I don't like them either but I
but I just do I'm all or nothing.
So I'm in like 500 right now but I I did 0 before the end of
July. 500 Pat. Yeah, a little more 100.
And 500 what? 500.
I I entered is me in the one in charge of making the picks?
Is that why she's screaming incessantly?
I I literally what I do is I2. 161 Chow Chow picks.
I control F for the eliminator and the puppy 3 and I make those
picks that takes me a while and then I go to the other ones.
The reason I do that is because I don't want to deal with the
one hour clock. So I'm trying to keep those ones
rolling. But if you're in like the Husky
with me, if you got a chow Chow, it's.
Going to It's going to be a long summer, buddy.
You're going to be. Drafting for a.
Long time big boy. I mean I.
Didn't know I was dealing with a slow pat.
Crane, this is your, this is your, this is your time to do
the advertisement. The the sidekick makes slow
drafting like legitimately revolutionary.
I I can do, I can like the the 13th round picks.
That's when you're when you pull up a slow draft and it's the
13th round and you have to look at the team and you're like,
what's my stack? What's my bring back?
It's just horrible, right? The sidekick is so big for that.
How you should do it infomercial like have like have Davis
Maddock pulling up teams in the 14th round, scrolling through
and being like can't see who I have to stack with like my
Raiders and it's like OK, but this doesn't have.
To be honestly, is that that's kind of where a lot of it came
from is I wanted help with my own slow drafts.
And I appreciate Davis saying that, you know, especially since
when you're on stream with the sidekick, you just ignore all of
its recommendations. Hey.
That is not true. That is not 100.
Percent true for sure. She.
Cheated on this sidekick. It's your rankings in there too.
It's my. Exactly.
It goes to the show. It goes to you.
Ignore yourself. It's a variable game.
Jacob, are you doing Bill Simmons doing Davis?
Doing me doing Davis? Is that what?
Yeah. All right, time to regroup.
We're about to pick in the middle of the 4th.
We've had Garrett Wilson, Kyron, Kenneth Walker, Trevion
Henderson. Not Williams, JSN, Marvin
Harrison, James Cook, Devante Adams, Bruce Hall, Ted Arroyo,
McMillan, Jalen Hurts Come off the board.
Jane Daniels still here. Alvin Kamara if you guys all
want to fall asleep and time out.
Mike Evans, Xavier Worthy could be fun.
I have a player to nominate. All right.
Let's hear it. Savior Worthy.
I'd be Mike Evans. I I was going to say I'd.
Be Mike Evans. Too Godwin on Pop man Godwin on.
Pop I'm I'm worthy with Davis. Break the tie, Ron.
God, I know, I know. Ron's going with me.
Come on big Mike man 1000 yards every year.
I know. Don't let the rashii.
Suspension NEWS UPDATE. Today cloud your judgement.
You get 6 games right there without Chris Godwin Alpha Big
Mike. Alright, we're going big, Mike.
Yeah, let's. Go.
You have to go big Mike. I would have loved to slap it up
with you there, Davis, but I couldn't, man.
I'm we. Also, we also get the free look
with Worthy by the way. Yeah, we get a free look at the
retirement home with this pick. No, Mike Evans.
Mike Evans, obviously, obviously a great pick.
You know it. It was a really inspirational
story how it took 19 consecutive screen passes to get him to 1000
yards. Remember that game?
Do you think they could make a wish him to 1000 yards again
this year? Oh.
They're going to try. They're going to try.
Pick 5:00 every single time. They're either taking the guy we
almost took, or they're taking the guy.
Or the guy we wanted. Yeah, I will say this team is
kind of off brand for us because traditionally ship chasing main
event teams, we like to get off to like O and four starts and
dig our way out. And I'm worried we might start
four and out with this. This team's going to be way too
good. But Alvin Kamara in the queue.
Hey. Don't, don't, don't text me with
a good time, brother. Who's got access to the team
again? I've really I've really guys,
I'm. Rushy Rice in the queue.
Gotta get that eliminator ass pick.
No Rushy. He's, I mean, we could do this
bit right now. He's.
Literally an eliminator ass pick now.
Well he is if you don't care about losing in week 5, which is
like that when the money. Starts.
Yeah, Isn't, isn't that, isn't that how all of the Eliminator
ass picks kind of work? Yes.
Well, you kind of hope you hang on for dear life like you dream
of 10 weeks from Khmer, you know, but you can't get it with.
Rice it's like the most bizarre situation, like is there ever a
comparable where you knew you were going to get production
like the first five weeks, not have it for another five to six
weeks and then get it? Zeke, right?
Zeke the one.
Did he have that? He had the mid season suspension
that that one year. Wow, I guess I memory wiped
that. Yeah, me too.
Well, I'm guessing you weren't that affected by Zeke suspension
I. Wasn't.
Very invested. Damn.
Damn, I thought there was a chance we would get RJ Harvey on
this team. Well, it's ship.
Chaser Gormanji in the one hall you got to, you got to watch out
for him. Thank God he went Jameson,
Williams and then DJ Moore's off the board too.
I was going to say he must have mistraft.
Well, Jacob, you're losing allies daily on the Jameson
Williams or is the legendary upside Cabal has officially.
Capitol, we just, we just drafted Jameson Williams with
Steph. So I, I now have, we've
capitulated. I now have a 20% share of
Jameson Williams just in case. Yeah, I'm not capitulating, but
I I now have my hedge book at least.
Ron Jamo in or out? More in than out or no?
No more out than in there. You go.
Ron, wise man. I'm still more out than in, but
you know, I'm, I'm not like. So it's it's the.
Zoomer, the whole thing. It's it's the zoomer cabal
that's out on on JMO. Interesting, Pat.
Pat's the zoomer out of. Curiosity I I sort of think of
Ron, King of the Zoomers. Yeah, yeah, fast.
Ron's the king of the. Zoomers.
Yeah, just me and Ron. Ron has more boomer draft
tendencies than all of us, and he's and yet he's king of the
zoomers. Ron is about the facts than the
data bro. Ron, Ron Ron made me draft
Austin Echoler last year. Like the Fact Check is true.
Exhibit He made our line up. All right, we're about to be on
deck. Jane Daniels goes Yeah, ADP
wise, you know, we're looking at Camara Maclaurin, Laporta, James
Conner, Mr. 110 mph and a 65, DeAndre Swift, Devante Smith.
What do you think, Ron? One other name.
Pete, can we see the queue? I just I literally just read it
off this. Is a tough spot.
I'm more of a visual learner. OK, once I after this one, we'll
get we'll get stuff pulled up. This is This is the same
decision we had with with Liam of Travis Hunter versus James
Conner. Yeah, that was a decision even
I'm not that boomer. Well, it was.
It was a decision because because Ron and Liam made it a
decision, but they came to the right side.
Is isn't, isn't Rice like just an awesome pick after today's
news in the middle, I don't think.
He's like, no, I think he's pretty undraftable in the main
event. He's probably missing my worst
pick. God damn it.
Wait, really? He's he's not going to miss the
league playoffs. I think he could.
I think he is he the earliest he gets suspension he get the
earliest he could get the suspension is week 5.
Let's assume six weeks. That means she would need to
issue her ruling within one week.
And he needs to get A and he he will appeal it.
To be able to play in league playoffs.
Let's let's make a different pick and then we.
Can all right, what are what are people feeling right now 'cause
I got that, that's why I wanted. I'm not against rice.
I like all the wide receivers. Devante Zay Flowers I like.
I like flowers. I like honor.
Anybody like Mclorn? Let's do like.
I like Connor the most to be honest, but I I guess.
I'm I think we go. I'd also take McLaren.
I think I have so much Connor this year though, all right.
If, if I'll go, you know what? I'll go, Connor, I'll go.
Connor I'd like a wide receiver and I won't I my vote is wide
receiver. You guys pick?
All right, flowers. I'm Connor, but my receiver's
flowers. Zay if it's a wide receiver, but
I like Connor more. It seems like we got a consensus
for Zay. Come on down.
All right. All right, so I did.
I did a little bit of reading. I'm not going to pretend like
I'm a lawyer. That's Jacob's deal.
But Jacob correct me if anything on this as well.
Jeez, here we go. This gal, Sue Robinson, got
hired by the league to. Be former attorney general.
I don't know if I'd go with Gal, but real blazing woman.
I would call Barack Obama a guy. It's this.
It is what it is. Why is that?
I'd call Barack homie. Why can't I call her a gal?
He he just did. The he just did the key and
Peele handshake meme to me as. A joke.
In the Deshaun Watson case, which is the only other one
she's ever mediated, she gave a six game suspension.
That was her ruling. The NFL said no, we wanted a 14
game suspension. So then they'd had to do another
additional layer of mediation, which is why that took so long.
The thing, again, please correct me if I'm wrong, that sounds
like why this is taking place instead of him just getting
handed a suspension down, is that the league wants to lay the
hammer down. Rice and the Chiefs are saying
we do not want you to lay the hammer down, we would like a
shorter suspension. How do we go about getting a
shorter suspension? Which means that this is going
to take more time. Which means there's a strong
possibility that he misses the playoff weeks.
Well, so yeah, this, it's funny because I always say criminal
law is not my job, and that's true.
But now, now we are actually doing my job, which is labor
arbitration. So basically they have a
collective agreement in place which has personal conduct
policy attached. Personal conduct policy has a
jointly agreed upon mediator if the parties are not able to
agree on the acceptable discipline.
So essentially like the Addison case was cut and dry because the
policy says if you have a DUI, you get 3 games, three games,
end of story. This case is much more
complicated because there are clauses in the PCP personal
conduct policy that apply to felony convictions, but it's
somewhat ambiguous as to whether this counts as a felony
conviction because he was charged with and was guilty of a
felony. But based on the way that the
plea deal works, it will be deferred and that the completion
of the deferral program, he won't have a criminal record at
all. So it's somewhat in a Gray area
as to how the psychotic policy should apply.
As Davis said, they clearly had some sort of discussion back and
forth, couldn't come to an agreement on the discipline.
And so now they're going to an arbitrator, which will be this
Susan Robinson. So the reason why I think
there's risk. So there's four weeks of season,
then they're going to have this hearing.
That hearing is going to be wrapped right before Week 5.
So that gives us the week. The league playoffs start in
Week 13. So that's a total of 8 weeks,
but one of them is a bye week, so there's seven Chiefs games.
So basically in order for Rice to be eligible for Week 13 of
the playoffs, you need the whole process of suspension plus
however long between the suspension being announced and
the hearing to be a maximum of seven weeks.
So if it's a six game suspension, that would mean she
would need to issue a ruling within one week of the hearing,
which is possible, but I wouldn't be surprised if she
listens to the hearing and then takes like a couple weeks to
issue the ruling. For the Watson case, she didn't
rule until six weeks later. That being said, you know, that
was a scenario where there was more fact finding because there
wasn't a plea deal and it was in the offseason.
So I'm sure this will move a lot faster, but I think that there's
some risk. The other thing people are
saying about with if there's an appeal, if if there's an appeal,
that could be like horrendous for us because that can push it
even more likely to the fantasy playoffs.
But I don't think Rice would appeal anything that has any
chance of bleeding it into the real life playoffs.
So basically I think that I don't know, I think it's like
5050. Like I would say it's like 80%
chance. Rice probably plays for the best
ball fantasy playoffs. I think it's closer to 5050 for
the main event league playoffs. Have you factored in I don't
know why have a week 13 by because.
We are going to be in first. Place in this league.
Where are you at on him and BBM? I'm.
Probably going to move him down to like round 6.
I I moved him to like the the Alave Jennings Pearsall, like
Nexus and end of the day, no one knows.
And, and I think we should all Gretch actually just have this
great ceiling signals post this morning about just like the
degree to which we don't know things and how pretending you
know things you don't can get you into these troublesome
spots. So I just like think the idea of
at this stage, aggressively drafting rice is like it
certainly is not good news. I I would say that at least it's
it's not good. Pat, you seem more bullish.
Well, how come you're more, you're more bullish on this?
Well, I wasn't thinking about that, you know, if she takes
several weeks to issue a ruling, but yeah, I mean based out you
were. Thinking, meeting, ruling.
Meeting ruling, I mean it's during the meeting and.
She might do that. Yeah, that was my assumption,
given that all the facts should be on the table.
It's also a month from now. So any further fact finding you
could do in the interim. And then I think he's coming in
for like an interview, right? Wouldn't that be the point of
this hearing? Like it's not about them?
Then you'll find additional permission, OK.
So like, I mean, so I do arbitration hearings all the
time. So like you have a union, you
have an employer and they come in and sometimes they'll even
submit an agreed upon statement of facts.
If they don't, then you have to do witnesses.
But like if there's essentially even if they like the plea deal
is more or less an agreed upon statement of facts for the
purpose of this arbitration. But then, like she, her job is
basically to determine, based on the professional conduct policy
in the history of the practice of the NFL, what a fair ruling
is. I'm sure she'll look at all of
the historical precedents and stuff in advance, but she still
has to consider the arguments put forth by the parties.
I mean, even times that I'm doing labor board arbitrations
that are like in the middle of a strike where they're on an
expedited basis, sometimes if you still take a week to get a
bottom line ruling. So I, I'm not, you know, she,
she's a lot more prestigious and, and has less on her plate
than like Joe labor board that I argue in front of on a
day-to-day basis. But I I'm not saying she won't
have it done in a week. I just think that there's an
additional risk factor that is is kind of being assumed away.
I also will say though, I think that there's like at least a 50%
chance they just agree to settle this at a number of games before
it ever gets to a hearing. Before it gets to the hearing.
Yeah, that's, that's yeah, that's also something.
And I would, I've been thinking about, you know, maybe they just
get settled before and then maybe he misses the beginning of
the season after. All.
Yeah, I think that's pretty likely actually.
OK. So terrible Yosh Labor Law plus
draft has me rock hard right now.
Hey, man, there's there's a need.
There's a need for fantasy lawyer content, Jacob.
Yeah, but it's never useful because I have no understanding
of criminal law like I couldn't be I couldn't be less you as
hence the quinch on Judkins take that ended up being very wrong.
I have no expertise on criminal law, but but now we're in the
labor arbitration. So now now I can cook.
What do you how many games do you think ends up getting
suspended for? Oh I mean I don't know my my
guess would still be like 6. I was going to say my my guess
was 4. It's 6 now basically.
Yeah, we have 6. That's what we're we're like, I
think I, I bet I wanted 8. At 6-7, because he still has
not. I'm I'm hip.
I'm with it. I'm hip.
If we want to start. If we want to start four and O,
it's A, it's a four and O ass pick.
The other thing with Rice missing, I know like missing the
bye weeks and stuff hurts, but from when you think about what
the season for the Chiefs looks like, it's not the worst thing
in the world for him to start the beginning of the season,
kind of get rolling with them and then they have.
A They have a tough start to the season.
All right, yeah, we are about to pick Davis.
Per your request. I have the literal queue up here
so you can see some stuff. Rashi and Pacheco on the Chiefs
front. What's the backup plan if he
goes right here? Maybe the the man is dating the
richest woman on earth who just set the.
YouTube Record No No. No, no, no.
Davis just wanted to give a podcast to use now.
Jesus. Jesus.
There there is a there is a pretty gross pick I would
suggest if we don't want rice. David Montgomery's On the Front
of My Mind. I'll put I'll go put my Tony
Pollard jersey. On I was just like James Conner,
Tony Pollard is is the same. Pretty into Tony Pollard era.
God, Rice, come on. Let's do.
Let's do Pollard. Did wattle go?
Did I miss that? Wait.
Wattle wet. Wattle wet.
OK, let's. Let's start four and O.
Dude Paulo David, like hungry for sure Alave.
Maybe fine, but. Yeah, I like Pollard.
I think. Pollard didn't go.
Is is way better? I wouldn't I?
Don't. OK, I don't really care between
the two. Attend me with a good time.
Just so we yeah, I'll put Pollard in the queue.
The wide receivers you're looking at like Alabama, Rome,
Jacobi A-Team named Slappy took a Mecca Buca at pic.
I I do, I actually, I actually don't hate Rome here if anyone
wants to to. No, I like.
We're going to have some of these swings at receiver.
Pollard and Pacheco, the drop at running back is.
Is is massive. And Rod, you like Pollard?
Receivers, Yeah, let's go Pollard.
I like sold myself on Pollard. Let's do it.
I'll also say, I'll also say virtual handshake to Crane for
pushing for flowers there, because I think I'd be pretty
upset if we took Connor just being honest.
Yeah, with the way that this fell.
I like that tier of receivers. I think maybe more Me too, and
most people like there's me. Too I was just being greedy
sometimes on FFPC like I've gone hunter at six O 9.
Like I was thinking maybe something would come back we
would like more. But I I think the the two V2
paid off very nice. It's it's the two V2 here is is
much is much nicer. I I like it a lot.
So here's the team CD Lamb, Bucky, George Kittle, Mike
Evans, Zayflowers and Tony Pollard.
We got our guy Slappy to base in the 9 hole here in the chat.
He's raising his hand on the IGBUCA.
We also have ship chaser Gormanji out of the one hole.
But we're doing good here, fellas.
We're cruising. I don't think that's that much
of A reach on Ibuca at all. No, I think that that that's
actually after his like where he goes on underdog now.
Yeah, I think it's pretty solid, Vic.
Yeah, he he's not all the way up to that's.
An early Warren. I think I think I was confusing
him with where I have him ranked.
Ron 610 this is this is Ricky person range.
Yeah. That's right.
Should we see what this looks like?
I want to. I want to see how this happened.
If you go Ricky. Yeah, you type in Ricky P Ricky
P Careful, and you have to go P. And you have to have and you
have to have and you have to have it on flex.
Oh. Flex I was on or on.
Oh yeah, 'cause he's he's. He's a running back for the
Birmingham Stallions, I think. Why is he's a he's a two time
USFL champ. Big.
I I know far more about Ricky Person than I would like to
know. Oh, 'cause now you're on wide
receiver. Oh, my bad.
Oh, I think he's out of the queue so I don't even get to see
how this looks. OK, there it is.
You'll just have to imagine, bud.
There he is, right next to. Rick this would this make you
guys scared if I just. Love to take that, take that
out. This is like that Leone draft
guys did a long time ago when you guys were doing that
bullshit. And do you guys remember Ricky
Seals? Jones converted wide receiver to
type Ricky. Seals.
Dude, imagine if he was still in the league.
Kind of the original. I was going to say, he was like
a huge slap favorite too. So it really worked.
Yeah, yeah. He was the blindest seal.
Yeah, was he? He was post Ladarius Green but
he was like the next generation. Of Ladarius Green, He was
teammates with freaking Mike Evans and Johnny Manziel at
Texas A&M and then converted a tight.
He was like built in a lab to be a sloppy player.
That was the period where there was just a lot of hyphenated
name slappy tight ends we had. Austin, Austin Sarian Jenkins,
Yeah. We had Ricky Seals, Jones.
Those were good times. Hyphen.
I was able to trade Superion Jenks in a first for Travis
Kelsey in his prime. That's he was he and the offer
showed up in my inbox. I was like, OK.
That was the year. It was both ASJ and Bishop
Sankey out of UW. Yeah, they were like the two
landmines in that 2014. QQ tag on Ricky Seals Jones is
wild. Yeah, I.
Think we can? Answer that what?
How is? What is the Q?
Are you guys buying into six round Ricky Pearsall?
Yeah. Yes, not really.
Which one? You logged in here and took
Ricky Person out of the queue? Is that you, Ron?
Yeah, that was me you getting. Scared bro?
He shook. Dude.
They laid down the law when when we were drafted.
Someone took him. I'm like I.
Cannot stress enough they laid down the law dude like I.
Well no, but if you would have left him in as an accidental
auto draft, they would have rolled it back.
I'm taking no chances, man. I I I cannot trust enough that
the hissy fit I would have thrown if I was that poor guy.
Oh, man. All right.
You would have. You would have been filing an
appeal to Arbitrator Sue Robinson.
I would have, I would have been disputing credit card.
I would have been, I would have been calling people.
All right, Kelsey Aaron Jones, David Montgomery Davis claims
that he loves respecting ADP, yet selected or wanted to take a
wide receiver. He's still available here.
Rome digs Njoku Mahomes debo. The wide receiver, I think it's
just whatever wide receiver is your flavor here.
And I'm the only one. The only.
One who wants. Yeah, he is, I think.
Travis Kelsey. I would do Kelsey.
On a Kittle theme. Oh God, not no, not Kelsey.
I thought we were trying to start four and O dude.
No. I'm not trying to deal with
having to decide whether to start Travis Kelsey over machine
She Eat All. Year.
I think that's pretty easy. Who?
You're starting now, Kelsey. Let.
Me get Roma Dunze, that's my. Let's put some let's Yeah, I'd
be, I'd, I'd be I can I throw Loveland into the.
Consider what about? What about Golden Wait?
Oh Loveland, I would be into. I'd be into I.
Mean we Loveland over. We have a lot.
Of I'm on, I'm on this. Statement of all time, dude.
If somebody wants. To I'd be fine with the Joku as
well. I'd be fine with Jennings.
I like Jennings. I like Jennings too.
If we want Rome, I like Jennings for me.
I'm fine with Doomsay. Kelsey, I'm happy to go.
To Rome can I throw golden? Out can I?
Throw. Golden.
We have been throwing Golden out.
Golden. Golden.
Ron, do you like golden?
I do, but overall doomsay. Yeah, it's a re roll on a
Doomsay man. It's a re roll.
But I'm fine, I'm fine with I'm O Doom.
If you guys want to out, if you guys want to out vote me for
golden, you can, but I'm O Doomsay.
I think we're going to middle it by saying I think.
Even if I'm with you on Rome, you're outvoted.
I think that's. Fine, if I get outvoted I will.
That's I like both players, that's fine by me.
That's fine by me. Alright, I was kind of I was
kind of hoping I could have it both ways where I would be able
to not vote for Roma Dunce but then get them on my team 'cause
I have like no shares of them and but but didn't didn't middle
that correctly. No, you do.
I think we did share it with with Steph.
Oh, that's true. Yeah, we do, yeah.
Oh then fuck Rome, we got enough.
Now, now you guys are going to look me in the eye and tell me
you really think Travis Kelsey's seventh round tied in.
For him, you. Think he's a bad pick?
Davis, I'm going to look you in the eye and tell you I have no
interest in the eighth either. Dude, you, it's just, it's not,
it's that's you're not living in objective reality, Jacob.
You, Travis, enjoy the seven poll.
He's going after Evan Ingram do. You see the loving way that he
he looked into Taylor's eyes. He has better things than
football to focus on at this point, man.
You know what valid honestly. He's living the life of a
showgirl now. He sure is, and he's loving it.
Yeah, Golden it's it was that was one of those funny things
where I thought structurally wider super made sense before,
but then once Golden became not a 30 spot ADP reach, I was like,
oh, definitely Golden. Do you?
Think we would have gotten Rome if the Bears had a friends and
family night where Rome played? And.
Yeah, I do personnel. But you know what, Pete?
They don't. They don't.
It's weird that they that they wouldn't have a friends and
family night. You know the the bear at the end
of season 2 they they did have exactly that before they opened
their restaurant. Now I can I get a, can I get a
statement from Jacob? I thought you hated Wider first
who didn't earn targets, but then you just voted for gold in
there. Look, here's the thing about me
and wide receivers of the golden archetype.
I I fade them in dynasty, but in redraft, if you're going to give
me a rookie, maybe I don't really believe in the profile,
but they they're going to play and they're getting good buzz, I
think. I think that's the kind of
player I want to take shots on. Did you just call Matthew Golden
Xavier Lee yet? No, honestly, it's it's it's
similar to Mcconkey last year for me.
I. Always talked with the Mcconkey
profile. It's more like rookie flowers.
Yeah, maybe Zay Flowers is the. Best thing too.
I like both of those guys a lot more than I liked Golden.
I like both of them more than Golden too, but they have.
Holes in the profile. I don't think LAD in any holes.
I think LAD was a perfect specimen.
No lad's a good com lad's a good.
Com for true nerds lad. Like never played.
He never played, was sort of my issue.
Was so fucking good. Yeah, the pro route stuff was.
Great, I know, but true nerds are looking at like production.
Right. He didn't have any production.
Well, no, I think. I think that The thing is that
the true nerds do get down to the granular route level.
No. They're operates in a I'm.
Just saying they're holds. Like he he's on the upside down
of the slapses when it comes to prospecting.
Like the true spreadsheet? Trust me, I I get.
I know. I can't wait to see what happens
with your guys's ATP chasing main event on on Monday.
That's where we're gonna really need.
This well you know show Shope and I have been doing Shope and
I always do 2 FFPCBBTS together. He pays for one, I pay for one.
We do them as slows and we agree on pretty much everything.
Like there, there was like one spot.
There was like one spot where we disagreed.
Like a phalanx. No, you guys, you guys want to
know you. Guys and Pete, when are you able
to join again? Yeah, Pete, Pete, get on the
show. You're gonna be a.
Little busy on Monday. The ones, the one, the one that
we disagreed on was Kyron Williams.
He didn't want Kyron. And I was like, I think we
should take Kyron here. Well, me and me and you had
Karen Williams on our NFFC prime time last.
Year yeah and wasn't it wasn't it nice to just get 22 points
every week and running back it's.
Pretty cool. Hey, who did you?
Guys, I'm going to tell you it was, it was actually pretty
nice. Who did you guys take in the
second round instead? We took a bit.
We took a bit like the 310 I think.
We'll see. I mean, it's easy to kind of
float Kyron Williams when you're just in a slow draft group chat
with show. But get under the bright lights
here. Shift.
Jason. 800 watching. We'll see if you get it in you
still, brother. Hey man, I'm, I'm happy to, I'm
happy to be the only guy who likes to draft running backs on
on this program. I, I, I conceded so hard to
Davis on that prime Time Team we took, we did a Kyron Williams,
DJ Moore turn. And we had an unbelievable we
had no, we did awesome. We were leading in total points
the whole way. And then the last week, Joe
Flacco died. So we were literally, literally
literally we choked it on the last week.
Heartbreaking. Also adult based on how our
based on how our years went, you know, we, we really didn't.
Need. We really needed it.
I remember like our group chat,
like which I guess it was a group chat.
It was just my messages with Davis, but like just a message
instead of like the Ron Liam ones where it's like, you know,
the the theatrics, the laughing every week.
Me and Davis was like, we really need this team.
Done. Thank good.
Thank God for this team. Like please, please God, can
this team get over the line? An elite, an elite tight end
team that we buoyed with Dalton Kincaid.
That was really, that was really our issue there.
David and Joku. Would you guys rather have David
and Joku at 87 or Travis Kelsey at 79?
I'd rather have David and. Joku, Travis Kelsey.
The bullet. I wasn't completely out on the
Kelsey idea. Oh, I'll ask the.
Bullet right there. Talk about a bullet.
Yeah, that sucks. Did you guys see that a certain
someone is out of a walking boot?
Oh, is he? Is he really?
He posted, he posted, he posted a photo with like a group of
Houston area podiatrists. Well, that's actually bearish.
That sucks. We are on the.
I would love Loveland. Yeah, Loveland goes ET NS gone.
Jawan Jennings, who I think we were eyeing, is gone.
The joke. Who's gone running backs?
You got Mason, Warren, Tracy. You got the the Jane Reed, Chris
Godwin, Shakur tier at wide receiver.
Godwin's out of that tier today. Josh Jones as well.
He got on today too. Is.
Judy still there? No.
Judy's gone. I like, I like Reed, or I would
even fuck around with AI. Like training.
I'd be fine with Tracy Warren. I'd be.
Warren. Yeah, Warren.
Warren's good Tyler Warren. 'S gone.
Jalen. I'm Tracy over Warren, but I
don't. I'd be.
Fast about it, maybe. Actually, let's go.
Warren, let's go with Jalen Warren.
Oh, we're doing we're. Doing one of these running
backs. OK, I'm going to Jalen Warren.
Hold on, hold on. I hate it.
But I guess Warren. I'd be Reed over both, but
Warren between the running backs.
I'm Downs. All right.
Let's think we're going to get a receiver we like in the next
one. Yeah, I do too.
Let's. Downs Downs did get Downs did
get hurt today. Yeah, he didn't.
Hamstring look like. Yeah, great.
Did you guys deal him? Stop with that man that sucks.
Yeah. That's I didn't hurt him.
Stop. Like.
We. We.
Would like stop stop reporting. Stop.
Reporting. Why?
Stopping. Stop with the injuries man, I've
had enough. Crane.
I used the Jalen Warren Bowl there I.
Think it was Pete. I think Pete, just like very
slowly. That was.
No, I like I I was for. I was for Warren.
I wasn't pounding the table, but I was.
Down I I would I like. The Tracy I slight slight lean
for Tracy for me. I think Ron and Pat were.
Yeah, I'll hype you up. Aaron Rodgers.
I believe today was spotted just like going nuts on Caleb
Johnson. And it's it's Warren.
Warren's going to be the dude there for at least the, you
know, begin the season and then he was going to be the passing
down guy the whole way. I don't think, I don't think
Caleb Johnson's really happening the way people think.
OK, All right. I mean, I love look, Jalen
Warren and Tony Pollard 2023 Jacob is loving this team.
Yeah, we are. We are.
We are drafting off of the legendary upside 2023 rankings
and we're fucking smashing. That.
Here's the team so far. CD Lamb, Bucky Irving, George
Kettle, Mike Evans, Zay Flowers, Tony Pollard, Matthew Golden and
Jalen Warren through 8 rounds. Ron, how you feeling?
Feel good. We are balanced everywhere, not
sweating quarterback. I don't know.
I wish I had more to add, but this is a this is a nice team.
This, this will get. I just want to give Jacob a
little more optimism on. On Tuesday, sideline reporters
spotted Rogers having some choice words for running back
Caleb Johnson, who ran the wrong route in practice, leaving the
Steelers quarterback upset. It wasn't some hushed sideline
chat, One practice attendee remarked.
You could see Roger Roger's body language from across the field.
So he perhaps cut left and Rodgers wanted them to move
right, perhaps. Perhaps good, good, good veteran
leader Aaron Rodgers. You know, he's always.
Appreciating himself to his teammates.
One one thing you know about Aaron Rodgers, he's always going
to be there for his guys. He.
Bullied Mike William out of retirement.
Doing something he didn't like. Pat, that does help me.
Pat, thanks. I feel good about this.
Are you worried about Jalen Warren's pass catching upside
when the Steelers inevitably signed Randall Cobb?
Because I do feel like that could eat into it.
Just a. Little I'm not, but I am worried
about his goal line role because I think Jonnu Smith has that
locked up. Oh God not.
Is it going to be Jonnu with Darnell Washington at fullback
and then to honor Hayward and Pat Fryermuth as the two tight
ends? Jonnu lead running back at the
goal line. Yeah.
Oh, Caleb Johnson was quoted as saying.
The moon landing was real. That's so bearish dude.
Oh, that is super bearish for Caleb Johnson.
Is that why Rodgers was chewing about?
Maybe. I'll never forget, oh, who was
the the guy? He Deshone Kaiser, he said, you
know, he was Deshone Kaiser was Aaron Rodgers backup one year.
And he said the first conversation he and Aaron
Rodgers ever had because he came in and said you should really
look deeper in the 9/11 men and then just walked away.
Just some light hearted conversation out there on the
football field are. We are we thinking it's QB range
yet or no? Not.
Yet not even. Close for me yet?
Not yet. So.
So since our pick, Tracy Shakur, Jordan Mason, Jake Ferguson,
Tucker Kraft, Keon Coleman, Cooper Cup, JK Dobbins and
Michael Pittman have gone here. Anyone thoughts on Mr. Jayden
Reid? Yeah, that's where my head goes.
I. He was out of The Walking boot.
He still wasn't practicing, but he's no longer in a boot.
We know we can do like 20 rapid fire push ups even with the boot
which is pretty exciting. So, you know, he's built
different. He's got that dog in him.
Can't. Say can't.
Say the same for Malik Heath. The next guy for me here.
Max is watching. He's a slappy.
Thoughts on on well? Yeah.
If Downs is her, I got nothing man.
Thoughts on on a certain there was.
Burden. I was going to say, there was
someone that you said you'd trade your future wife and kids
for. Ron available.
Oh yeah, Round 9 is deep for Burden.
We got slappies on the we got slappy blockers.
We. Want to can I just throw
something out here? Is is Judkins a good price?
At this point, yeah, yeah. But I thought we might be able
to wait till 10 but I guess. We need to grab him.
Sorry, I didn't. I didn't.
I didn't see that. Do you guys want to grab him
here? Grab Judkins.
Yeah, I'm fine with. That I'm good with Judkins.
Look at all these ADP slappies asleep at the wheel.
Have fun, I put a few minutes ago I'd said Judkins next round
thoughts, but then no one responded.
I'm so sorry. I thought those, I thought those
were next thoughts. Normally I always see the
private chat and I had the browser just barely.
No, I have a yeah, my I'm tracking the pics.
I had it. I think that's that's the best
move there. Judkins.
Like he's not going to. He's going to be way higher than
this in the later mains. I'm just going to come out and
say it. I wish we took A.J.
Brown over Bucky. Well, definitely not.
Yeah, yeah, definitely. Yeah, people say we got to wait
before discussing the pick. He's clear watching and sniping.
We telegraphed we wanted George Kittle more than anything from.
A mile away. Oh, no, yeah.
He did take I would also I would also tell the guy mimicking our
picks. Have fun staying poor buddy.
You're. Supposed to be concentrating our
picks, although taking Jayden Reid kind of is because in his
head he's like these assholes drafted Matthew Golden all draft
the actual good wide receiver on the Packers, Jayden Reid.
Where are we at on the Jayden Reid is going to play in 12
personnel? Well, he's not, but I don't,
he's not. I don't think he has to.
I, I think he can be an absolutely outstanding ninth
round pick without taking a single 12 personal snap.
I I don't see the issue there. I mean, I'm into Downs who's not
going to play it down to 12 personnel and as much as way
better offense. Yeah, yeah, Reid for me is if he
is he healthy? I was taking Reid ahead of Downs
pretty much every time. So right.
Is this going to be the generational wealth foot injury?
There's like a 5A5 day dip with Jayden Reid that gives you
combos that you couldn't get before.
The good news is we never have to look at the running back tab
again for a while. Where has he been going?
Like I'm only in eliminators right now so I don't like where
has he been going in traditional stuff?
Like pick 88 to 95. OK, interesting.
Can I, can I make a quick confession?
I, I I was worried about how we were gonna build on our wide
receiver depth since you had to start 4 and I forgot this entire
time that you can flex running backs on FFPC.
I didn't know I do need to do a. Totally, totally went over my
eyes. Totally went over my head for
my. Was that part of the Warren
confusion? Yeah, a little bit.
A little bit. I think I knew in my head the
whole time that you can flex running backs on FFTC.
It just wasn't something that comes up in my mind a lot.
It's a very interesting way to see how you view the world,
Jacob. Now we are getting in.
We are getting into the range for a couple pretty interesting
Hot Topic players in the current iteration of chasing.
I really, you know what I want to pull.
I'm going to pull up Ben Gresham's rankings right now to
see whose team he's on here. Actually, honorary long time I I
have a feeling. There is there is only one
player that I would be willing to accept at the next round.
I think I have that player ranked like a tear ahead of the
player that you and Ron want. I have no clue what you're even
talking about. They want they want Ron's
deposit. Kingdom Guy.
Let's cross that bridge when we get there.
Kyle Pitts just went. Kyle Pitts just went.
Let's just table that for now, Davis.
All right, it only so it only took until August 14th for the
slaps to be totally back in there.
There was a there was a time frame when Kyle Pitts was
actually like. Free Mike Kasaki.
Whoa, that's. An interesting pick.
Over over. A lot of really nice options.
All right. The tight end.
Looking like, yeah. Kincaid, Goddard.
Strange, Zach Ertz. Hunter, Henry.
Don't love that. Doesn't doesn't feel like a spot
to to crank it, if you will. Man, they certainly didn't see
all of Liam's tweets about Noah Fant signing is what I'm
gathering. By that heck.
What's no offense? What's no offense?
ADP these days. That'll be pretty late.
It's pretty late. He basically goes undrafted.
That is true. They had to get the week 17
correlation. In the correlation, Marvin
Harrison Kasiki, our Generations, Tyler Algier and
Zach Hertz. That's a nice picture, yeah.
Not really sure why you took Mike Kasiki and then thought
about Higgins for a minute, but that's a nice thing.
Can't can't possibly be slaughter than the first.
Can't be slower than the first round of the randomizer
yesterday. It's it's kind of like a
severance moment. You know his his innie that is.
Out dude, that's actually a great idea for content.
You do you get you. You get a pick on a turn and one
pick. Like you do it in character. 1
you do it as a left wing slappy. 1 you do as an FFPC boomer.
What if the bit is just biology? Or we could randomize.
We could do a randomizer where we have to pick someone from the
quadrant. We could.
Oh, every player like and. Then that's a new speedy.
That's good content, yeah. That's a really good.
Yeah. Cram the ideas.
Method. Think you might need to send me
the link to join on that episode please?
Yeah, I think we gotta do that somehow.
That's too good. The thing, The thing is, I don't
think I don't get the, I don't get the cultural, I don't get
the relevance. I can guess what inie and outie
means, but I have not watched Severance.
But you know about the color theory that is imbued throughout
the show. Well, the split diopter is.
It doesn't get better. The split is so crisp.
Dude, it's so crisp. Chris Chris Diaz in the chat.
Your Audi loves to draft. Me you're like, what is?
So tilting. Whoa, look at those.
Back-to-back Josh Downs and Luther Burden.
That's. Didn't you not?
Someone play Manny man. Someone someone talking play
Manny man. No, but I knew that too.
I knew that's who we collectively wanted.
And I root for my friends. Wow, but.
Who's the guy that you've been you?
It's it's. Now it's time for you to to to
come up with the the bright idea here.
Oh my God. We might have to just Jed.
Shaheed, I don't know. We don't have to.
Capitulate to wide receiver. I just take tooten.
I was going to say blue, blue or tooten.
I take tooten. Dude, I'm starting.
I'm starting. I'm starting to feel Phil.
Huh. That's that's that might be too
deep because these dudes want, I thought these dudes want would
want Jayden Blue. That's the Brian Schottenheimer
quote. About no I I would much rather
have Basil tooten. Jay, who do you?
Who do you want, Ron? Basil Tooten.
Say it with your throat. Hey yo on your.
Chest. Hey, yo say.
It with your. Throat.
Hey, not doing anything with my throat on stream.
Ron, can you, can you make this? Can you, can you make this with
some conviction? Who?
Who's the Who's the pit right now, brother?
Basil Tootin. No, come on, give me something
brother. Make me want to run through a
brick wall before I click draft here.
Basil Tootin. We're really taking a running
back here, though. No, we're not doing.
No one wants who David. You want it was.
Shaheed. Oh, we're not doing.
Come on. Basil.
Davis that's I know that's been like a fun joke in a bit we.
We have 5 running backs. I love the like Once Upon a time
you guys did Jamar Alpha play chase and then Ron is just like
Basil Tootin. No, you have to understand that
Basil Tune is not a high T alpha play.
It's a it's a finesse play, the Basil Tootin.
That's. What I was?
Trying to portray. Hey, Ron or Jacob, are you, I
know you're a little nervous, but I do just want to let you
know you can flex up to two additional running backs on
FFVC. We just have to accept here that
we're. Flexing the lottery on the back.
We're going to, we got 3 receivers through the 1st flex
spot and then this last flex spot is going to be a rotating
door of RB and it's going to be a beautiful thing I think.
I think it is too. We're.
Going to win the flex at the running back position.
First first time ever this group of people will be winning the
flex. No.
There was, there was probably no, I was going to, I was going
to say there was probably one year where we took like Mark.
Andrews and. Some rookie tight end hit and
and that combination was winning the flex.
I really just wish that Bucky Irving was AJ because this would
be an incredible 0 RB team. It really would be.
Yeah. We were aligned there.
We were aligned there, yeah. Yeah, but I like this team a lot
as it is now that I've learned you can flex running backs on
that. Learn something new about the
scoring settings every year More.
You know, is this, is this why Ron, your upstairs neighbor,
doesn't? Like, no, my upstairs neighbor
is my mother and brother and they are many doors away from
me. I can.
I could I could make all the noise I please down here.
Mini doors, he said. Many, many.
Doors. What kind of doors Mansion is?
This at his palatial Sopranos esque New Jersey estate.
Well, not so much. There's just a there's a garage
between me and the people. Mr. Mr. Home Gym.
Ron's Mr. Home Gym in the garage.
What you know about it? Took well, I don't I know
nothing about a home gym everything I've learned about a
home gym came from soccer Dave, a man who has an unopened squat
rack box sitting in his garage all right, that's that's so far
very early for Dylan Sampson by the way in in the.
Current. Yeah, especially after.
I'm still pretty into Sampson, but maybe that's just cope.
Not you. Here we go.
CD Lamb, Bucky Irving, George Kittle, Mike Evans, Zay Flowers,
Tony Pollard, Matthew Golden, Jalen Warren, Quinch on Judkins
and Bay Shell Tooten and you can't say it with any
enthusiasm. Running backs coming off the
board, though. I think we really starved the
beast in this room, guys. It's nice to be on the other
side of of life for change. Dare I say we might actually do
Rashid Shahid this room? No, this guy's going to.
Take no mathematics will. Take him.
He will. He will.
Well, I'm, I'm making sure to say it as much as I can.
I I really hope you don't. Take be a real.
Shame if you're talking to God. Damn.
And and you know what? My brain.
So bad. My brain wasn't even hip because
Keenan is probably in in a boomer's fast start format.
Dave. Dave.
No, I no. I want.
Slot demon? I think slot demon went, did he
not? No.
No, he didn't. And he?
Ain't I'm not really. I'm not really into slot demon.
No. Can I can I flow Brandon Iuke is
that crazy on? This I was just staring.
At I think it's kind of, I mean, it's a.
Viable at this point. Serious roster clogger, but.
Yeah, we do always. We do always pick a 49ers wide
receiver that. We I don't when I The thing is,
I guess the reason I don't think of it quite as much as a roster
clogger is because we don't have the wide receiver firepower up
top to where we're yeah, we're going to be able to sit on that
wide receiver spot. And and you talk the entry here
is everything we got. Well, and the other thing is.
Well, there you go. He got so.
I like to fight this man. Well, you mean Rasheed Shaheed.
You guys like Shaheed more than Mooney I guess.
What about quarterback? Mooney's is.
This a spot. Mooney quarterback.
What about tight end? I'm good with Shaheed if if
that's the way you guys want to go.
But I I would do a Baker with Evans.
There's just someone, the other. Quarterback, yeah, I prefer me
personally, I'm on Shaheed I, I can I I don't feel strongly if
you want to go tight end or whatever else I'd.
Ask Ron, you have controls. I am not going to be party to
making this click. If you want this blood on your
hands, put. It on no blood, brother.
Can we can we just see the tight end queue for a second?
Titan Q Titan Q Britain Strange Zacker.
It's Hunter Henry Isaiah Like. We can leave the tight end
queue. We can leave the tight end
queue. I've seen it don't don't like
it, I I. Guess it just has to be Rashid.
Shahid got to be Shahid. I'm I'm logging my official vote
for. Darn.
It's very annoying that this guy Mathematics took IU there
because I think we could have taken IU, came back around,
grabbed Purdy and we would have been cooking with some real
heat. But.
I wish we had a clip, but that was just like a sad trombone.
When when Tyler Shuck being seal, when Tyler Shuck is the
23rd best quarterback in the NFL and Rashid Shahid is outscoring
Chris Olave, you guys are going to thank me.
I just want to say that today we had a chance to take Luther
Burden in the 11th round and we didn't, but we took Rashid
Shahid in the 11th round. That's the day.
Be careful about weed and we I fought for you as hard as
possible. I thought like that was the
Battle of Thermopylae. Guys, this will be the one pick
I get the whole year, so we that so.
So just would be. Happy you were doing some.
Weird meta analysis Is Gretch in on Rashid Shahid?
Like what were you talking about back?
Then I didn't. I didn't.
I did not get to. Rashid Shahid.
You you were in process of pulling up.
Gretch. Gretch's.
Reddings to confirm. Gretch.
Gretch, I bet. You thought Gretch would have
Shahid over? 70 picks ahead of Rashid, Jahid
and. We're going to find out.
I would I would bet anything I have that Gretsch has.
I was reading his Quin Shawn Judkins post.
Give me a second. It's going to take.
You have to do the code and everything to lie.
I I came into this day hoping to have 1/5 of $4000 of Luther
burden and. The thing is, though, like The
thing is, if we could go back, we would take A.J.
Brown over Bucky. But what if?
What if Bucky's the guy you need this year?
Yeah. What if?
He's What if he's a legendary running back, man?
What if we just got him? Whatever, she's a target.
What about you? Need this year I'm gonna have a
bad. Year thinking about.
Give me a cold winner. Hey, at least we got this team.
That's right, the ultimate hedge.
Book how early? Like if it it came down to it,
you know, there's a few of these main events left.
Like if we just gotta start taking Luther in the 8th, the
7th Davis, we gotta go. Davis is gonna face the reality
of the Rashid Shahid situation with every single week.
We're looking at Jalen Warren verse him as the flex spot.
Jalen Warren projects for 2 1/2 more points.
Well, it depends on whose projections we're using,
brother. I really know Davis.
Matic isn't rolling out a projection system.
I'm not. I'm not.
But I bet, I bet leonie.leonie.net is going to be
higher on Shaheed than you think.
So Gretch has Gretch has him projected like whatever the same
as Golden, but I can't find his ranking sheet.
This. Is a This is skill.
This is a skill issue. I can check out gretsch.com real
fast here. I am on I am on gretsch.com but
I can't. Microsoft, I got it.
I got it, I got it. We're in a different generation.
All right, he's got a really low.
He's got one day. Oh, I'm shocked by that.
Well, you're saying Gretch isn't in on Rashid Shahid and isn't on
Luther Burden? That's strange.
The next three wide receivers after Rashid Shaheed are Malik
Washington, Jalen Lane and Jalen Royals.
That's why. You thought this was your ally?
That's my bed. That's.
My bed. No, I didn't.
I didn't think. I didn't think.
I didn't. I didn't.
I never said he was going to be my ally.
I was genuinely curious. Gretsch.
Hi. I mean, frankly, having him next
to Jlo Lane is that's just preposterous.
That's so good, Gretsch. Yes.
I love, I love Gretsch because he like you guys make me feel
crazy sometimes when I'm like holding the line on takes and
not not giving in to the wars of 2024.
Nobody holds the line like like Gretchen, No one.
Those guys, those guys truly understand the you know, they,
they, the wind tries to Bush them over and they are a stone
in the wind standing. Shot doesn't even know there's
wars going out. He's in a bunker and it's just
completely soundproof. It's dark like the world does
not. Exist.
Except somehow he gets little dispatches from like Cardinals
camp that gets slipped on. Yeah, fucking a fucking Raven
comes. He puts out his hand in the
Falcon. He's like Unbreakable Kimmy
Schmidt, but with cardinal sources.
Yeah. Yeah, he does have cardinal
sources. Yeah, I think it just, I think
it's still so the Mike and Sticky team, the Audi is at it
again. Wow, yeah, that is.
Let's see, does who does he come back with?
Who's I was going to say, what if he what if he takes like?
What if he takes like? And he's coming back to Trey
Harris, actually a. Good pick.
Relax, Ron. No strange is is fine.
Bro dude, if you like Mike Gazecki at the 912, you're going
to love Brenton. You're going to love.
Let me tell you what I don't like at the 912.
All right, here's the team so far.
CD Lamb, Bucky Irving, George Kittle, Mike Evans, Zay Flowers,
Tony Pollard, Matthew Golden, Jalen Warren, Quinch on Jughead,
Bashel Tooten and pour one out for Rashid Shaheed, our 11th
round selection. God, that's just.
Did you just? Really solve the team to have to
look at that. What do you guys think about two
V2? We go Gorendo instead of Shaheed
and grab Jalen Lane here. Yeah, Lane.
Is Jalen Lane even going to make the team?
Yeah, that's for sure. Yeah, no, he's had a good.
Game a lot. Jalen Lane's had a good game.
You do not like Jalen Lane a lot.
You don't have to. You don't have to.
Lie Davis. I have.
I have. 4 Now what is a lot I
I'll I'll. Pull up my exposure right now,
what do you think my Jalen Lane exposure is right now on
underdog.com? David, does this include big
board? No, OK.
Not including big board 3% in the post draft.
I I just put, I just put JC. Damn, I wanted big.
And he went. Yeah, it's 4% more percent Jalen
Lane, but if you think. About how often?
That's pretty reasonable, yeah. Jalen Lane, that is really high.
That is pretty high. I wonder if I have more than 1%
of Jalen Lane I also have. Jalen Lane on my last call team
OK, we're. Looking at .3.
Percent Jalen. Lane.
All right, let's focus on Boys I.
Got to be. Honest, I don't have a single
thought about who we're taking here.
Yeah, JCM and Baker went boat. Nicks is the big slider by 80.
Nicks, maybe? I actually can.
I can I sell you on Purdy to Kittle?
Oh, that's not a bad. Idea Purdy Purdy is my favorite
redraft quarterback. You don't have to sell. 7's
going to fucking dude this. This room is pissing me off.
It's why like Jacob has has clowned me and Liam in the past.
But like, obviously you're like, OK, we're going to do this draft
slot and then these guys are taking every guy that I would
like to take. Hey, Ron, It's a really
competitive space. Everyone like information out
there. Drafters are getting sharper.
You're just going to have to be better, Ron.
You're just going to have to be. Better.
But it's just he's going to do it.
What else could he do? You don't want you.
You don't want your your Jets guy.
He should take both. If if, if my guy goes, then
yeah, there's going to be an auto pick.
He's going to take it down to the last timer.
OK, you take fields. Fine.
All right, we take Purdy. Are we all in on Purdy here?
I. Like that, yeah, I'm happy to be
a quarterback. I think that's.
This is this is going to be A2 quarterback team, right?
Like we'll we'll take another rush earlier.
Yeah, yeah, I. Mean I maybe maybe your, your,
your franchise quarterback, Jacob.
No, we're dude, I just. I just want to talk about the
Colts, right? Now I think it's too early for
Daniel Jones. I just like, can we, can I just,
can, I just have like a little bit of peace, man.
Like I, we, I got shot at a Luther burden today.
I have to read joint practice updates of the Colts because
Tanner Tortellini apparently can't block anybody.
It's just. It's just not.
Is that a real name? A guy's last name is Tortellini.
No, his name is Bordellini. OK.
I I saw, I saw some actually decent reports about Richardson
today. I saw a tweet that said he had
seven, he had seven, absolutely on the dot, unbelievable throws
and then seven misses that were like not even in the area code.
Yeah, and and that's better than Daniel Jones.
I mean you read that the Daniel Jones reports it was like he
only got 5 reps with the ones today.
Apparently one of them was a hand off and the other ones were
what would have been a sack, but they didn't sack him.
And then like 3 incompletions or two incompletions and an
interception. Yeah.
Yikes. Did you see the Patricks or?
Tan clip where he was talking about how he baited Anthony
Richardson into a pic last year he was talking about.
How he was, I was. I was in the 10th row for that
one. What were you I Yeah, that was
that was the game I flew to. And then I had to watch Adni
Mitchell throw a pick 6 on a reverse.
And then I watched Richardson throw.
I watched Taylor drop the football at the half yard line.
And then I saw Richardson throw that interception to Pastor Tan
and it was very telegraphed. And then then I walked at a Mile
High stadium and had people yell at me on a really strong piece
of architecture as the the Denver train system.
Well, and did. And then AD Mitchell laughed
about it. Yeah, and I appreciated that.
I thought that was a good tone to have after.
After making that play, I thought it was really funny too.
And then you scampered back to Canada.
To go watch his Blue Bombers win a championship, brother.
They're actually playing right now.
Really. Bombers are currently on.
I'm missing the game for this. Brandon Aubrey in the 12th
round. That's a man who don't want to
do his waivers. Well, you won't be needing to do
them after week 13, that's for sure.
What do you guys? What do you guys think of
likely? What?
Do you guys think of likely a managed I?
I was thinking about floating him at the party pick any more?
Interesting. Yeah, fine there.
Yeah, I feel like I think it's a little more interesting.
I, I feel like I, I, I like injured guys a little less than
managed just because you, you just have to sit there because
you can't cut them. You know what I'm saying?
Like you're not going to cut the injured guy like, oh, it's week
3 likely still hasn't played, but we can't cut him because we
took him. You know what I'm saying?
That's. Fair.
All right. Some quarterbacks coming up with
quarterback, yeah, Bone Nix, Drake May, Kyler Murray come off
the board. We're about to pick here in the
middle of the 13th. Rashad White comes off the
board. Hunter Henry is still here.
We got some running backs. I don't know if we are still
into that mode. Pete, if you're into the
Patriots, I would maybe throw out Drake May.
Now he's gone, damn it. Can I throw out Hunter Henry
slash knackers? Pop though I gotta take pop than
Hunter Henry. Zack Zackert.
Zackert slash Hunter Henry Either or.
What's what's the purpose of Zackerts and Hunter Henry on
this team exactly? George Kittle's not going to be
with us for our championship game.
Davis wanted Travis Kelsey like 6 rounds earlier and they're the
same thing. That would be kind of my reason
for them. I'm not going to throw up.
I'm not going to throw up the player I want then.
Do we want it? There's.
Debate that. We could do an awkward, we could
do Caleb or something like that. Jacob is, I think we're.
Going to have her code mathematics.
I love you brother. Who do you want?
On your second, I would. Personally go ertz but I
understand the appeal of whatever else.
I don't understand the appeal of.
It understand the appeal of whatever fucking lottery ticket
these guys are. Like I, I just.
I'd be fine with ertz. I like ertz.
I'm good with ertz yeah. Who scores more fantasy points,
Zachary Ertz or Jalen Lane? Or Ertz or Travis Kelsey.
Remember on ADP chasing when we were talking about how fantasy
isn't about which one of two players will score score more
fantasy points? In the going season, this game
that we're playing right now is much more about who scores more
fantasy points between two guys than Basketball Mania is.
I grant that your central conceit is still correct, I I'm
with you on that, But this game obviously is more about who
scores more raw fantasy points. Very profound thing you just
said there, Davis. Yeah, score more fantasy points.
You have the best players. I'm taking notes.
They should have, they should have got, they should have got
you to be on the show when you guys do the self-contained
league with Leonie Davis, That that'd be really be your your
hair. Yeah.
Too too much, too much above, too much above my blood.
I was going to ask if Trey. Harris is like a fine pick these
days in the 13th Oh. God, I think the Trey Harris
stuff might just be over. Yeah, I think it's you.
Have a Do you have a clip we can play?
I don't. I'm not demonetizing this stream
to no play with the player you fucking mush the hell out of.
Well, it's only mushed if you think Trey Harris can start in
the National Football League, and I'm not certain he.
Can't be right over that. Yeah, I'm not.
I'm going to pass on on Trey Harris.
What? What Davis?
Was KLS ever a Debbie darling when he was at Penn State?
No, not, not really. No, He.
Learned something. He was ass at Penn State.
He was.
That's true. Yeah, it wasn't.
It wasn't particularly good at Auburn, frankly.
If you guys missed the full schedule for main events here,
on Monday the fellas from ADP chasing will be doing a main
event draft. Then on Thursday a week from
tonight Pat and I will be doing one with Sean Siegel on Friday
Pat and I will be drafting Jalen Lane with Ben Gretch on Friday
night. The following Tuesday we got the
5K Big Payback draft with Alpha Play Leoni and then our finale
here. I need to make this smaller so
you can see it is of course Crack Rock.
All of us will be there. The gang will be having some
fun. Thursday 828.
If you guys aren't subscribed to the channel, please do
subscribe. ADP chasing every Tuesday
normally, except this week it'll be Monday and pretty soon we'll
be rolling into stat chasing in season with Sacrilegious in
Draco on Tuesday nights and we're gonna have an announcement
soon about our in season plans. I will say the ship cast is
going to be back. I will also say it's going to be
with A twist and we will be announcing that hopefully in the
next week or so. All right, guys, we have 1/2.
3-4 we're getting into a range where some more purple maybe of
a really and it a sort of amphibious quality would be
interesting. I was also thinking about, you
know, how some creatures are able to navigate both water and
land. Maybe maybe Aqua line with with
sort of waterproof feathering? Maybe even perhaps the air,
water, land and air are all available to some.
Creatures all all in one critter.
Yeah, whose? Whose gate is similar to that of
an animal with a Corkscrew penis?
Is that where we're we're headed with?
This is that what JJ said to his mom bro?
It took me a second to Do you think ducks are amphibians,
Davis? I don't think they are
amphibians, but I think they are.
Amphibious. I guess they are amphibious
though. Like they like how how would you
how would you say that a duck is not amphibious?
We're. Not getting a bird.
I'm aware, I know, I know what a bird is.
Amphibian is the classification, yes.
Amphibious I believe just refers to the ability.
Vehicles can be amphibious. That's true.
Yeah, Yes. Related.
They're not in. They're not in the water.
Well, hang on, no. No, no, I'm looking at the
definition of. Amphibious AI AI is wrong.
AI is wrong as. You I don't get to say this
ever, but Davis has a good point here that amphibious means
relating to living and are suited for both land and water.
The creative writing major knows his English language and he.
He's correct. Davis is right, all.
Right, by the way, Davis, if it. Walks like a duck, quacks like a
duck. I guess it's a fucking duck.
Then it's going to. Catch the duck.
It's pretty. Cleveland, it's going to catch
50 fucking pets each year. Hey Ron, now seems like a good
time to ask, are you having a good time tonight?
Having a fantastic time. As we just are doing our own
dumb bits that we do all the time while Rod sits over there
in silence. Legitimately, legitimately upset
to lose out on Demario Douglas in the 14th.
You. Know you've drafted too many
running backs on FFPC? Yeah, I feel like I've got I've.
Got a big? Pop.
I've got a wide, I've got a wide receiver.
Please, I don't even want to. I'm terrified to know the.
One, I think, I actually think you like this guy.
Oh oh, David inspired dude, dude, me and you, we're on the
same. Page, Like I said, I'm a
centrist Slappy. Some of my ideas, you're going
to be like, dude, what's the point?
That's just the same thing that you suggested before, but then
some of them you're going to be like, I can see why this has
broad appeal. That that right there dude.
I'm going to Welcome Fest for that pic.
I'm going to go grab the copy of Abundance for my bedroom for
that. Can I just say something?
Oh, I was going to say Austin Eckler absolutely shouldn't be
on the board still, but he just went so we can table that
conversation. So really I.
Tired Todd Bateman at these prices.
No, I think. No my my pick is way.
Better, what about? I think we can get your pick
next time I. Would have What about?
What about Donald's? What about Dobbs?
Dobbs was the pop Douglas. I would do Tillman over Dobbs if
we're doing that type of bet. Wait, what?
How is how is the Dobbs bet bet bet that different than the Pop
bet? I can't say bet a million times.
Over I I also like this is this might be too inside baseball,
but Golden and Dobbs together feels.
I'd rather do Thornton. If we're doing related Thornton,
that'd probably be. Kind of a deep threat.
Well, who knows what he is? You know my.
I like Davis's guy. I'm way more.
Than I want to. I want to get him to be.
We can sit. Oh, oh, I have another.
I have another suggestion, actually, if, if, if Godwin's on
a private chat. McMillan.
No, I think. We already are off to a fat.
We already have a bunch of fast start guys.
Any interest in quarterback too? Which I'll be open to I think.
Jordan Love would make a lot of sense.
Yeah, I I kind of like what is the Chargers starting schedule?
Yeah, I like. Herbert more than Love in a
vacuum, but Love's pretty interesting with.
With golden chargers. Chargers don't.
Chargers do not have like a fantasy friendly opening
schedule. Yeah, love to golden stacks and
the Sprint would be very fun. Yeah.
Especially because we're not going to have you go with that
goal in the championship game. When we get there, let's just do
that. We'll do it.
Good, good call there. I like that.
That's. You're talking to a veteran.
You got to cover a week, 14 bye
week at quarterback. Come on dudes, dudes locked in.
I'll let you guys, you know, we're talking, you know, you
know, Armadillo, whatever the hell, whatever, you know,
amphibian, like just so, so incredibly niche.
Ron, Ron called. Ron called Jacob self indulgent
on my show the other day and I was like.
That's fair. I was going to say, that's just
the secret of what all of us do. It's all very self indulgent,
like Ron is for the people, we are for ourselves, no?
Question one of those have worked out as a kind of a
YouTube strategy far better than.
Hey runs on art show right now. That's right, why don't we ever
get an invite on his? Come.
On might be the self indulgence. Okay, Ron, how does your
audience perceive Liam and Jacob?
Because my guess is. Perceive me negatively.
I was going to say, I bet your audience is like this guy Jacob
just keeps talking, but he never says anything.
This guy Liam is on top of it. This guy Liam, knows everything.
No, they hate Liam. They.
Don't like Liam either. They don't, they they're such
polar opposites where with Liam they don't like how Liam like,
yeah, like Chris. Chris is a mod in my chat and I
I have to tell them to play nice when I get Jacob and Liam on.
There you go, Liam Or Jacob. Liam Moore probably, if that's a
notch in your belt. It's it's tough though.
It's it's, it's pretty like it's a tight game between me and Liam
to who runs chat. I will say though, this time of
year you have to understand that like a lot of my chat aren't
even my subscribers and they turn on me.
I did like a high stakes draft last night where they start
turning on me and then I have to like and then all all of a
sudden, dude, genuinely, the fantasy football counselor was
in my chat last night. Not when I was counselor was.
The counselor has been in my chat twice this summer.
Let's go dude it. Just throws the whole thing.
Yeah, I don't. Know when I go on Ron's I
explicitly refer to it as an away game.
Yeah. All right, we got to draft a
wide receiver here. I I I vote either player named
Jalen. But can I, can I, I'm, I'm not
talking until mathematic has picked.
I'm just going to keep that. I'm just going to put that out
there. But I I have a name that I I
would debate here. Who's your name?
I'm waiting for mathematic right after you mathematic.
You got about a. 7 second delay for.
Us no right Mathematic right after you, brother.
He is on a 7 second delay. Yeah, you're good.
You're good, Ron. Right after you.
She sucks. My name is Tori Horton.
I don't know if. That's poker over Horton.
I like your name, Ron, but I like, I like your.
Name you. Can't do fan in here.
I like Coker just as much as you guys do.
If we don't take fan in here, the guy after us.
Is yeah, he's not coming back. Some of those receivers come
back. I I look.
Bad if we like, literally don't. Get the Browns back up, tight
end. Yeah.
I love the. Receiver today.
We need a, We need a wide receiver.
He's literally running the his reps with the twos were quote
diminishing. He was running basically fully
with the ones, now he's not their backup.
I'm up. This is your new.
This is your new Ronald Jones. OK, Rod, Daily Duck, could you
get on board Daily Duck? Yeah, no Coker.
I I I've drafted almost too much Coker.
OK. All right.
Yeah, the the guy in the chat, I got a jail in Coker.
Here's the thing, here's the thing, we actually just poison
pilled the guy next to us. There's actually another secret
tight end that he doesn't know about that is in our private
chat that he. Yeah, he's a land mammal.
Can I, can I ask Pat in all seriousness, and I think I know
your answer, are are you worried about Isaiah Bond for the Harold
Bannon bat? The undrafted guy.
Fake, fake, undrafted. Let's be real, Matthew Golden
was a first round. Pick I couldn't be less worried
about Isaiah Bond. That's what I say about Jalen
Coker. Fake undrafted guy.
This guy has pedigree. I have 20% Jalen Coker right
now. Yeah, wow, That's a pretty nice
exposure. I can see why your audience
turned on you bro. Yeah.
What does your audience want from you, Ron?
More running back picks. More running backs, but then I
then I draft running backs and then they don't like my
receivers. It's very much the Denny, the
Denny Carter issue. I'm worried about your wide
receivers. I got yelled at yesterday for
taking James Conner over Devante Smith.
So they want a rainbow start. They want.
No, because then I go perfectly balanced.
I'm like, you're looking a little thin.
So you can't win is. What you say there's no winning
unless the draft room. It just gives me values across
the board and I get a super team then No, it's it's maybe maybe
this team needed a little more running back.
Help. Do you think they could use like
a pump up talk where you go full screen and you look them in the
eye and you said we just drafted Bay shell?
Fucking Tooting motherfuckers and then they rally behind you.
And they're they're more of the audience that needs a sweet talk
is kind of how I've gone is just.
Okay, all right, they're sensitive.
Rons chat is, I mean, first of all, it's just a sign of how
great Ron is at his job that his chat contains so many
multitudes. But it is like there's not even
like a coherent disagreement like we'll do like like for
instance, we took James Cook over Ken Walker, right?
And it's like you have you have this entire chat.
It's like, how could you even think of taking James Cook over?
Like they get so freaked out at like the most minute of like
same to your pics. And then you'll have people in
completely different sides of the disagreement.
But like imagining that no one could possibly disagree with
them. Like on one hand, you'll have
people doing like puka over neighbors.
Are you fucking kidding me, dude?
And then other people be like, I can't believe you didn't take
the big dog there. Like the entirety of the
political spectrum. No matter what happens.
Yeah, I mean, let's just be honest, dude.
Ron's killing. Ron's killing the game.
Aspirational for us to have a chat that just hates every pick.
Like what happens around here is that people will just be fist
pumping. They're like, yeah, dude, can't
wait for you to tell. It's like we're playing the
hits, you know? Ron doesn't have hits.
Ron just has people complaining at him.
Ron Davis is like. Daddy's an album artist.
Davis had to have discord screenshots leak to have
everyone turn on him. That's true.
Well no people generally.
People generally find it easy to hate whatever team I draft, even
if it's literally just the most milk toast ass shit.
No way dude, you're you're Davis Maddock.
Hive is strong. To find it easy to hate the
teams you draft. When you're in a windhor
situation, you're. You're Rasheed Shaheed Hive had
their feelings hurt for like a week and 1/2 after.
That well, well, what you have to understand, what you have to
understand is that's downstream of Leonie Hive.
OK. There, there was a little bit of
an existing, yeah, river rolling there.
All right. To be to be fair to joking, I
was. I was talking.
I did start talking about. Shaheed, round two, you did.
You did call it. You've been trying to call your
shot every draft. This pick sets up Rasheed.
Shaheed, you finally got it. We finally got it.
All right, so the picks we've made since Shaheed, Brock Purdy,
Zakert, Jordan Love and Jaylin Coker, two of these picks, guys,
this is our first time live doing this.
Who is going to be our kicker in defensive captain?
Who's volunteering for this job? Oh, I'd love to do that.
OK. Thank you, Jacob, if you could
get in the lab and come back to us with some week 1 totals,
some. I got I got I got I.
Like the heads? I did look at this.
I've got I've got defenses for week 1.
OK, Fact is 1 like very clear defense this year.
That's the late target. Yeah, other than like the
streamer. I mean, I don't know about
multiple. Like I only know week 1 like the
first, the first like 5 weeks for the one I put in the private
chat are like very mint. Yes, correct.
Yeah, that's the team. OK.
But we have it. Turns out we got no CLV on
Darren Waller by the way. Still a 16th round pick.
I tried to tell. You, you tried to tell us.
You guys, I've never seen 3 seals.
And just. Fucking chest bumping the shit
out of each other. Did you have Darren Waller?
You got you got treated to a show at the Marine.
Yeah, you did. That was 3.
Sliding to the podium together, you guys, I didn't.
Even. I don't really care that much
about Harold Fan of being on her team, but I just wanted Pat to
be in a better mood for the rest of the night.
Quote quote from the Browns beat reporter that I couldn't find.
Until Harold Fan is going to play for this team, he's going
to be the reason David and Joku moves on from this team in three
months, possibly 8. Wow, wow dude, lay the hammer
down. You guys are sleeping, man,
You're sleeping. They're sleeping.
They're sleeping on the fan and bed, dude.
They're sleeping on the fan. And.
Bed it has been both and I don't really need.
Name is Slacky the base. What's the running back
situation? Just out of curiosity?
I know we already have like 17 of.
Them I do have around 20 running back that I do really like.
All right. Let's let's sit on running back.
I think we there some of these wide receivers are.
Nice. I think we take cracks at these
receivers who've got starting roles locked up and might be
good. I like Ron.
I like Ron's guy. Yeah, there's a guy, either guy
all. Right, Ron?
Give me Horton, finally. Screw your draft capital, man.
Dante Thornton sucks. He.
Does well. Dante Thornton doesn't have any
draft capital. Either he doesn't have any draft
capital. Either yeah, Isn't he a day two
pick? No, he's not.
That would be. That would be Jack Bash.
I see. He just took the job.
I can. I can see why you'd be surprised
because everyone has been talking like Jack Bash is like a
cripple who is like not going to be able to play football
anymore. Yeah, I'm still, I'm still
drafting him. Yeah, correct.
Good for you. Well, we could have taken him
right there too, I think. I don't like him as much and
manage frankly, like in Best Ball, it's well, you know what I
mean. In Best Ball, it's easy to just
make your portfolio bets and say if it hits, it hits.
You don't have to stare in the reality of I took all these Jack
Besh teams. You're, you're saying you're
starting to reject Jack at 1:30. Team Stevens.
Davis is my favorite person in the world because instead of it
being like I like this guy better in best baller manage due
to like the format, he's like I like this guy who I think is
going to suck better in best ball because I don't have to be
confronted with my dad, no. Exactly.
Guys you, you take guys you take, you take guys who suck in
best ball because you don't have to be confronted with it.
That's not really how to play the game, no.
And then you look at your advance rates and you're still
upset. That's your own mental, just you
that you're. Doing I think.
No, you got to take some guys who suck in basketball anyways.
Just the way the format is. Unless you want to have zero of
these bets. But it's better to.
Have guys who might suck hard in manage because you can cut them.
Because you can cut them. Yeah, and then you don't have to
look at them after you cut them. I guess that's true.
You don't have to look at them after you cut them.
Yeah, take big swings. And then when you miss what
you're gonna miss, you have the right guys to cut.
It's good to just be like, yeah, let me see what I got here.
Cutting them right, like, yeah, you can't do anything to them,
they're just stuck, but you get revenge.
In man Yeah Davis, you're gonna flip over a.
Finals team for major Corey Graske.
Merrick, you're getting cut. Yeah, you're gonna you're gonna
flip over a finals team and see Jack Besh.
Just some dog shit player on there that's gonna it's gonna
imagine that. Imagine how you're they're good.
Just just for the record, 9.2% of Jack Bash.
So I actually take that. I think Besh is a great 17 round
pick. He's well priced now.
I'm holding the line and I want him here if you guys will allow
me. Thornton.
Absolutely no bash. No bash Thornton over either.
Bash over Thornton is I think 2:00.
I think it's fine. He's better on draft capital end
of season. No Besh Besh is so much better
at football than doctor. Gordon There's even no chance I
know of the story. About his brother, but I we're
trying it's. It's just draft.
Down now you don't have a best clip.
One, it's draft capital. Two, Thorne I can understand in
best ball, but there's not a single world where in a manage
league Thorne is anything in your line up.
Yeah, he he is Marquez Valdez scantling at best.
There and you're what you're telling me about when we're
going to have to start know when to start Dante Thornton when are
we going to know when to? Start.
No. No, there's nothing about
knowing when to start. There's just no like Thornton
isn't a target earner that you can feel good starting like he
is. Do you think mathematics?
I'm in the bash. Wait, why are these?
Why are we between this and Muhammad?
Like is there no other there? No other option we can consider.
I think no one got. That reference, for the record,
that wasn't like Islamophobic I did from.
The movie you were going, Were you going mushin?
Muhammad No. I personally was offended by no
from. Super dad.
I was like why the fuck is it between this and Muhammad?
OK, that's good. Yeah, I see.
But. Jalen's or Jay I actually have.
I have Gretch's rankings up and he's got Jalen Lane is the clear
value. Here I I literally would take
Jalen Lane. Right now I'd be.
I would take bash man. I think that's a good pick here
I. Would take a Knoll.
We've seen these second. Round picks.
Oh oh. Jalen Jalen Dole is bad, sorry.
Also also even even better, even Josh Downs Hammy Josh Downs
hammy 80 Mitchell. Oh.
I love Eddie Mitchell too man. Ron, you.
This is Ron. This is your pick.
You, you. I will let you pick whichever of
these guys you want. Who do you want?
Give me Eddie Mitchell. Yeah, there we.
Go. That sounds fun.
I he is now AB Mitchell is AFC dantavian wix but he does have a
clearer path to. To and he's like 5 rounds
cheaper than Wix was. Yeah, well, I mean, they're both
free. Now what?
What round did we take down? Tavian wigs did last.
Year we set We set the minimum pick in the ninth round on
Tavian. Wigs.
Christ come on, before we even knew how to arf we were arfed
that. Was that's the biggest No one's
arf harder in their fucking life.
Ninth round that Tavian wigs some wide receiver 4.
Like at the time going in, we're like, yeah, he's a wide receiver
4, but man is he good. But can but dude at dude at
family night he did he like he kind of subbed in his like kind
of his side. Wide Receiver 3.
Unbelievable. Gretch.
Gretch was in on that one with me.
That was mostly Gretch and I Peter was not as in.
I was not as in either. Yeah, I don't, I don't think
you. I don't think you were.
But yeah, that was that was actually the seal losing its
eyesight. Moment.
Yeah, the seal had fully gone blind.
The the seal was looking so closely at the sun that it was
essentially an eclipse. Yeah.
I I remember that stream and it was like in the moment, you
know, because I was trying to think I'm like, if I was part of
this draft, you know, who would I vote for?
And in the moment I'm like clearly done Tavian Wicks at any
cost is the right move. And then it was like.
Clearly. And then it was like, I
specifically remember a couple minutes later I was like.
Man. Are those guys a little even
higher on Dontavian Wicks than I am?
Like the? Ninth round is pretty high,
yeah. I put a running back in the
private. Chat.
Yeah, I like that call Davis. Here's the team 2582 from the
top CD Lamb, Bucky Irving, George Kittle, Mike Evans, Zay
Flowers, Tony Pollard, Matthew Golden, Jalen Warren Quinch on
Judkins facial Toot and Rashid Shahid, Brock Purdy, Zach Ertz,
Jordan Love, Jalen Coker, Tori Horton and AD Mitchell.
One more non kicker DST pick. I like your suggestion, Davis.
I do too. This dude was the number one
overall pick in college football fantasy last year.
Now he goes undrafted bro Crazy bro there's.
Another the The second overall pick sadly didn't make it on to
our team. Ron, are you feeling bombed that
we have not found a way to get a New York Jet on this squad?
No, people don't understand that.
Like I'm a Jets fan, but I also just understand that like we
just, we just suck, man. Like we're not very good.
Like that's, that's the whole, that's the whole.
Like I, I literally have 2% Garrett Wilson on on underdog.
I, I, he's my, he's my favorite player on my favorite team and I
can't draft him because he makes cool catches, I guess, and he
separates. But.
Justin Fields has been deep in his Bible.
Can I, I, I will, I will throw out.
We have a running back in chat and I'm not even convinced that
he's a worse bet. But if we were to take a jet, I
don't mind Isaiah Davis if he's out there, but.
Isaiah Davis is kind of the same thing.
It's like, when are you starting that I guess if Breece Hall.
Does get traded? Yeah, I was going to say if he
gets traded. Yeah, in the game that Breece
missed last year, Isaiah Davis outscored Braylon.
Does he have his whole life ahead of him though?
What does that mean? Tell me you're not a fan of our
work. Those initiative chasing.
How, how? How old is he?
Oh, I know Braylon Allen's young.
I know he's also. I I don't know if Braylon Allen
can legally drink yet, which is sad because he's a Jet so you'd
want him to get him started on doing that.
Yeah, it's true. Still bummed you can't take him
out to the bar. Yeah.
He can. His 21st birthday was mid-april.
All. Right.
Happy Braylon. Allen So Ron, you're telling me
after a long day in the content minds, making these videos for a
wide swath of fantasy football players that you don't just want
to throw on an episode of ship chasing and hit the town?
No. Honestly I I am so I'm so with
Ron. Like I get I get done from 9
hours of slapping my blind face in front of my computer and
there's nothing I want to do less than listen to to a 2 hour
episode of some fantasy show. If I do, I'll have it on in the
background like I'll especially in season.
I like I will, you know, pump you guys up like I do like ADP
chasing in season. When you guys going to talk
about the Hot topic stuff, Hate to see you, hate to see Sam go.
I think Sam is great with the T Higgins charts and stuff.
But of course during like during this time of year, dude, like I,
I'm working all day and then I go upstairs with my dog and I
put on some Davis will feel me on this.
I'll put on some bullshit golf YouTube video and I will fall
asleep and I will run it all back again until week 1.
So just to be clear on I'm I'm self indulgent and you really
miss when Sam was on ADP chasing.
Here's here's Here's the. Thing and Ron, how does your
audience feel about Jacob again? I'm being taken out of.
Context. Let me rub it.
Off. Are we doing, are we doing this
running back? Yes, yes, I think it's a nice
call. I would like to clear the air
here on me calling Jacob self indulgent.
I just went not that Jacob takes it to heart.
He obviously knows what I mean. But this is what I'm saying.
I just told you I don't consume any content and I don't even
like reading. But in terms of fantasy content,
I will consume Ben Gretch stealing signals Jacob Sanderson
thinking about thinking I routinely read their stuff and I
consume their content. But I did say Davis then asked
me, do you write anything like that on your Patreon?
I said I write stuff on Patreon, but it's not as self indulgent
as Jacob and Ben Gretch, who go thousands of words and they it's
great. It's just not something I can do
or want to do. That was you're.
Digging. Writing writing the Slapsys was
was easily the most self indulgent.
Thing no, the the Slapsys, the Slapsys did not get it got
skimmed and just fair. I still don't understand.
I still don't quite get out of you, I.
Can say two things about the slapsis 1.
Unequivocally the most self intelligent piece I've ever
written on the site and that is a high level of competition.
When it had to have been written, though, it had to be
written. Someone needed.
To I loved it man 22 the most viewed post that was not within
one week of the NFL season or rookie drafts in the history.
Thinking about banking? Really.
He's oh easily. People love that chick Corinne.
Like outside of here are my rookie rankings or here are my
redraft rankings or the NFL season just started.
It's week one. That was, that was.
Wow, that's amazing. My my video of me and Davis
doing impersonations of each other for an hour has more views
than like the average like hardcore football stream that I
would do. Oh, it was like, it's kind of
the same night. Mostly because I really wanted
to do the Slapsys, but I hadn't written in like a week and a
half and I was like, I can't justify doing this self
indulgent bullshit unless I at least give people a Hitchhiker's
Guide column. So I got out the Hitchhiker's
Guide column first. Then I hit publish on the
Slapsys and sure enough it was like the the views like 2 to one
ratio between 6000 words of running back and now you're like
versus Trey McBride is Elizabeth Warren.
You're like, you got to be like a Hollywood A Lister.
You know, you do the big blockbuster and then you get to
go do the indie film, you know, just for you to scratch that
creative bitch. I, I, you mentioned that on ADP
chasing, but I reversed it in my head and I was like, oh, that
makes sense. Like you put a lot of work into
the other one. You know the opposite.
The opposite. By the way, I have located a
California Golden Seals real used NHL jersey that I will be
wearing on on AADP chasing coming soon.
Oh. Yeah, rules.
You went over the draft. You got to work in the draft.
Yeah, yeah. Probably won't be here.
Probably won't be here by then. Well, maybe.
Maybe I'll order the rush shipping.
I'll. Treat Yeah, I get the rush
shipping. Man, oh, you're ordering it?
That's a great idea. I found it.
I found it on eBay Let. Me.
Are we grabbing the Do you have? You guys liked Do?
You have defense stuff Jacob lined up.
I saw one in the chat. Yeah, yeah.
Is that 1 still? Available.
Be careful. Mathematics revealed himself in
the chat here, he said. Nice drafting with you all.
This is mathematics. Long time listener, first year
doing the main. First time fucking sniping.
You left and. Right, he.
Didn't say that, but that's what it felt like.
Is the one that I said in the chat still on the board?
Yeah, well then that would be my suggestion.
But Ron, do you trust this guy? Mathematics after what?
He's no, I have genuine beef with him and if I come to a ship
chasing event on one of these yachts, you don't want to be in
like New York. I'm kidding you.
Really that the guys are going to have to see my hands.
We're going to we're going to have to measure up.
I hope he's a big guy I got. To figure out another one.
Yeah. Cam cams little comis.
Oh yeah, Commies giants. Commies Giants.
You would think that getting sniped on a defense wouldn't
matter, but because we don't know who we want other than the
one that someone researched, it's actually the worst snipe
of. All commies.
Commies is pretty good one Commies is good.
Oh, Bengals Browns is another option.
Oh, we already picked. I don't know if you even want
the Bengals defense against the Browns.
That's fair. If this guy wins the main, I
want credit for it. Yeah, I agree.
This is my team that I'm looking at.
Yeah. How about you service the audio
listeners with mathematics Team Dave?
Yeah, sounds good. Brock Bowers, A.J.
Brown, Josh Allen, Xavier Worthy, Travis Hunter, Isaiah
Pacheco, Aaron Jones, Tyrone Tracy, Jayden Reed.
I say with my clenched teeth. Jayden Blue, Brandon Ayuke,
Tyler Algier, Hunter Henry, Woody Marks, Rashad Bateman,
Roshan Johnson, Blake Corum. Didn't want him.
Sorry, Trevor. ETN, Arizona Defense.
God, that's a good team. It's a good team.
Selling any equity to that team or?
Yeah, but he's he's like a running back Week 1.
Yeah, so are we, buddy. Yeah, we probably are.
We probably are. We're probably.
Let me tell. Let me tell you.
Again. We ain't, yeah, we ain't
starting gold in Week 1. What are you talking about?
Yeah, what are you talking about?
I do love that we have two wide receivers of the number 22 right
Donna Golden and Shaheed. Both wear that shit.
Oh my God, that's not bullish. That is bearish.
Shaheed Shaheed Shaheed will project for more points.
Week 1 than golden. Well, let's let's get to the
bottom of this right now. Brock Purdy at Seattle, You're
starting it. Throw them in.
Oh no, love, love. No love at Detroit.
Love at Detroit. For sure no, but just just go
with the best projections here though.
Let's who? What what projections you use in
there brother? Just the ones on the site, just
just the ones that make them look pretty right now on August
14th. I swear to God if Leone doesn't
have week 1 NFLDFS prescriptions up, I am going to cancel my
subscription. OK.
So this is the flex decision. It's Warren or Gold, Matthew
Golden versus Jalen Warren or Shaheed.
What's Shaheed project for? You're not.
We're not starting Shaheed or yeah, let's see.
I bet, yeah. I bet better than 11.
Let me see the FSPC projection on Shaheed Pete.
Yes, yes. Where?
Where is the project? Oh, you know, actually.
It's in the far right and on. 11.6 versus 9.62 suck at Shaheed
Bowles. No, let's.
What's Zach Ertz? What's Zach Ertz's?
Type Oh Zach Ertz, Zach Ertz is. 9.84.
This is why we took Warren Jacob.
Do they, do they know, do they know it's tight end premium?
That fast start? Well, Golden's the highest
projected he's 11.6. Yeah, Golden is the highest
projected who? Who do you think is cooking up
the projections over FFPC? That's a great the same guy who
said you're stuck with Ricky Person.
Who's in the kicker lab? Got to be Cam Little right?
He hit a 70 yarder. One second, let me get up the
streaming list. Try and make Steph's life
easier. No, he's actually Davis.
I'm a big when it comes to kicker.
I don't want to play matchup. I want to bet on talent.
And if this kid has a fucking Horitzer of a leg, we need to
get on Sir, you. Heard I just said, I just said I
just said prescriptions when I meant projections and Pete just
said Horitzer instead of Howitzer.
It's. A hoards over a third leg.
You thought a duck was amphibious?
Please don't throw stones from. Glass No, I did not say that a
duck was an amphibian. I said that they were capable of
being amphibious. Get put the kicker in the bag
bro. The kicker.
The kicker I wanted is gone anyway.
That doesn't help us. We still are, legally.
Obligated to draft a kicker? Let's go Jason Sanders.
I just want it on record that Gretch has Josh Reynolds, Jets
wide receiver 2 ahead of AD Mitchell.
Say that again. Josh Reynolds ahead of AD
Mitchell. Gretch he.
Doesn't believe. What's up with that man?
That's a heel turn, Kevon. 'S head as well.
Jason Sanders play Week 1. Colts in the AT at the Colts in
the Dome. Yeah, I want little.
Can't wait to watch Anthony Richardson versus the Dolphins
secondary in a true battle of confidence.
That's that's man, damn. There's a good bit with like
Sisyphus actually being happy to push the rock like he gets to
push it downhill, but he actually like can't figure it
out. I I couldn't get there.
You can imagine all I. Picture is just Alec Pierce
streaking down the field, no one covering him.
Ball going into the stands left and right it's going to be.
I feel like the deep ones are like like something like mind
melds for. Him dude.
Week one last year special. Special Ron, you want you want
Cam. Give me Cam.
This is what I will let you take Cam Little if you look this
camera in the eye and you convince me that we should take
Cam Little and you don't even have to sell me on his kicking
cross. I just want to hear you say his
name with a little bit of heart. Please, Pete, give me Kim
Little. He's.
Got. Terrible this is I didn't know.
Your name, Get out your knees and things.
I don't what I'm going on. I'm giving you one more chance,
Ron, One more so. Beta.
Give me your Cam Little. Give me Cam little.
Let's go grab him. That's what I wanted from you,
Ron. I don't know, I think I just
think it's funnier the other way.
That's. Really what it comes in too.
The other way it's funnier. I think being bashful about Cam
Little is funny. Please Sir, give me a little
more Cam Little. Roll the clip.
It's funny. I don't know.
Damn little clip. Yeah, we can play a little poker
chasing, kicker chasing. It's the show where we chase the
best kickers, the kickers that help you win championships, the
biggest legs, the breaking news. It's everything you've come to
love and know. The time is now for kicker
chasing. Let's get some fucking kickers.
I don't think I really appreciate it.
The it's everything you've come to love and know.
Long standing show fucking kicker.
Roddip, you are you familiar with that clip or are you such
an anti ship chasing watcher that you're not familiar with
that one? I'm not.
You're exposing me right now. No.
I used to consume a lot more fancy content when I was
delivering pizzas, I'll be honest.
When I was delivering pizzas, I would listen to any fantasy
football podcast that existed if you were on the Apple, iTunes,
whatever. I was we have a very similar.
Yeah, very similar origin story, very different road map after
the origin, people are are saying when I used to listen to
this show via audio walking my dog before I was on the show, I
would it would get me every time, the chase every time just
doubled up laughing like walking my dog.
As a long time listener, first time participant, tear to my eye
being on the screen as as we chase some fucking kickers.
Just truly a special moment in my life.
Be around to watch this, Jason. I can't believe that Jacob did a
Bobby Sylvester reference. Yeah, man, that was.
That was, that was. Unnoticed except by the chat.
But I thought that was a good one.
Back when he used to be able to channel your love for Christ
into rampant online. Morning Perfect.
I actually think he's the speaker of the House.
Think OK, here it is nowhere on lapses Mr. Sylvester Yeah, I
think we did. All right, Ron, I want your
final thoughts. I just set the starting line up
for us. Brock Purdy, Bucky Irving, Tony
Pollard, CD Lamb, Mike Evans, George Kittles, Zay Flowers,
Matthew Golden, Cam Little, Washington Defense.
We head to the bench where we have Jordan Love, Jalen Warren,
Quinch on Judkins base, Shell Tootin, Ollie Gordon, Torrey
Horton, 80 Mitchell, Jalen Coker, Zackerts.
And if you keep scrolling all the way to the bottom, you will
find Rasheed Shaheed. How do you feel about this team?
Just wait till that quinch on Judkins projection updates.
I cannot. I cannot contain my excitement.
Dude, Bengals week 1 might be a spot start.
I don't know, it's very funny, like every, every, I don't know.
I'm just come to learn that every team has its holes, man.
Where you know, we we we could have done the A.J.
Brown up top, but then we probably would have had air at
running back too. Now Flex 2 doesn't feel as
great, but I don't know. I think it's a solid team.
Again, we're making the bet on Bucky.
We're making the bet on the 49ers through Kittle.
I like I think it's a solid team.
I think it's also a team where, I don't know sometimes if we
took A.J. Brown and we sort of got off to
a slow start, you know, again, it's a 12 week season in FFPC,
man. I think that sometimes you
forget that so. Projected to win Week 1 fellas
139.28. That's what it's all about. 7-7.
Love to see it. That's how I draft.
Jacob with thoughts on this team.
Yeah, excellent squad. Was an absolute pleasure.
Get to bring back the Tony caller jersey.
That feels nice. And yeah, super, super pumped.
It was a pleasure. You guys have me on for some
this year and pleasure drafting with you as always, Ron Davis.
Final thoughts on this team? Draft Shaheed log out process.
This team needed Kyron Williams. This team, dude, A.J.
Brown, Kyron Williams, 2V2 on this team.
I'm just saying. We're also playing Mathematics
Week 1, by the way, so we're playing ourselves.
That's fine. That's fine.
Yeah, probably. That is going to be so painful.
Knowing knowing arc out of. Teams.
That's a slow starting team. That's beautiful.
That's BBQ chicken mathematics. He started a cornerback at Flex
2 there brother Kat. What did you think about our
first live main event here? Yeah, it was fun.
The I'm with the A.J. Brown idea that we could have.
This is probably a little bit more fun, as is your running
back team. But I love Bucky this year, so
I'm good with it. Ultimately getting Kittle to
fall to us was really nice. Felt like we were pretty
flexible with the tight end stuff.
So that that really helps because then we could #
quarterback there. So yeah, I like getting the
double stacks with Love and Purdy.
Good team. Good stuff.
Pulled up the schedule earlier. Next draft will be Monday so no
Tuesday. ADP chasing that.
Show is flexing to a day earlier.
The boys will be drafting A-Team 7:00 PM Eastern, so same time is
Tonight Show. Mike Show will be joining of
course for that one. If you guys want to become
YouTube members, that'll get you access to the ship chasing
discord. Very fun lively conversation
going on going on in there around the clock.
Otherwise what a start to the main event.
Go follow Ron on YouTube, go bring some non toxicity to his
chats if you get a chance one of these evenings.
Otherwise, we'll see you guys next time on amphibious chasing.
