And I mean, it's going to be quite enjoyable. It's going to be crazy. It's going to be quite enjoyable. Listen, no, a pot into my head, Mike was we have said before at one of the live shows Andrew Loughborough tired. Yes. And I want to give you context for that moment. So we had the show prepared Andrew Loughborough tires literally while we're in the green room about to go out. We all on we thought it was a bit just that we were like, Oh, man, are we getting someone got got so bad. Do you want to know what that would be equivalent to today?

That would be Joe burrow retiring at our live show. That is the age equivalent. Are you calling your show? No, the Reaper does not come for Joe burrow. But that was the equivalent. The other one is the equivalent. The Fancy Retire. No, not currently. You also killed the queen, but yeah, I mean, they're dead. You really did. Well, I mean, when you comp, when you comp anybody to somebody in their late probably, whoa, see, 80, 90 years old. Yeah, I mean, your odds are there. That's something might happen. Sure. In the near term, but no, we're so excited. It's going to be so much fun. So much going on. Like I said, a mock draft show today. We have some news to catch you up on. I don't think we have any catastrophic injury news to share with you today, which is nice. In fact, we have some of the opposite. Some players getting off the putt. All right. We are less than two weeks until kickoff. Wow. Yeah, two weeks from yesterday. That's wild. Yeah, Wednesday night. So this weekend. And next weekend, Labor Day weekend are the two biggest draft days of the year.

And if you're not prepped up and you're not ready, the ultimate draft gets available now at ultimate draft kit.com. Let's get it going. Leader of the pack presented by Pet Smart. Well, this has been a fun debate each and every week. Guys, we're talking through unsettled situations, committees at the wide receiver, running back position and where we think. The fantasy values going to end up. I mean, we did the dolphins, I believe last week, right? We talked through that mess of a wide receiver room and a little up. That one might be less messy than this one today. No, no, I'm saying with Chris Bell, which is actually like. You don't think that makes it more messy. I think it makes it less messy in terms of like he's good. Right? Yeah, Chris Bell. That's been the question. He's good. Well, no, it's like. Yeah, he's a first round town. We're like with an injury recovery that pushed him down the draft. We think that these other guys like you're calling your shot on who's capable. But it's like, Chris Bell is a player who should have gone in the first round.

Every pause, that is a fabulous future segment. He's good, right? I want that segment on this show. Mark it down. That would be amazing. But gone. Yeah, the issue is, yes, he is probably the most talented of their wide receiver for coming out of college. However, week one for a rookie, often ACL, who hasn't participated, you can't possibly expect him to be even decent for fantasy, which means all he does is money to water. Okay. Which to be fair, our big takeaway. I think at the end of last week's segment, well, I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that. I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that. I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that. I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that. I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that. I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that. I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that. I don't know who that is. There is no val��. No, there is no very unique. You know the guy up here, okay, that'd be great. I know who who's tried everything else. Thank you. Thank you.

in the sixth round. I don't know if it is warranted, but he feels like sort of a fart of a pick to me when I get to that point in the draft. And then you get Rico Doudal, who has at times been maybe Mike's favorite player in the world, proved last year because it was the year of Mike that after being sir, he proved multiple years ago. Do you think he proved what he did last year in Dallas? I don't. I don't think he had a thousand yards in the half a year. I think that's proof. I don't. I don't think his run in Dallas was ever as impressive or close to his impressive is his run last year in Carolina in terms of explosive gain. I mean, there were times there was a stretch of weeks last year where Rico Doudal was the primary discussion point for yes, we have the explosive. We have the 206 rushing yards followed up by a hundred eight. Take a Rico compliment because he needs it to be bigger Rico compliment. Well, it's a great is Rico tattoos get offended. Yeah. So Rico Doudal is now on the Pittsburgh

Steelers sharing the backfield with Jalen Warren. We know one thing about this backfield. We know Caleb Johnson won't be taking away any carries from Jalen Warren or Rico Doudal. But Doudal is going around a round later than Jalen Warren. I have Doudal rated ranked higher. What is the takeaway for you? Like this team Aaron Rogers, you know, Metcalf Pittman, New Head Coach, New Identity, we're so used to the Tomlin identity in the backfield. It seems wide open. It's it is and that where it's more difficult of, you know, when when Rico is on the the Panthers with Chuba, I felt like it's Rico's the better player to me. So it was the I can you know, it took a while for Rico to to take over the job. But it felt like this is something that could and should happen. Jalen Warren is an excellent player. A key is he's far better on the ground than I think that most people realize or give him credit for and he's like he's a multi faceted running back.

And he's faced it. Something I have just discovered the wildest Rico Doudal information. Okay, please have it. So he played in Dallas in 2024 and he played in Carolina last year. Correct. And neither season was he just like declared the starter in place from the beginning. Correct. It took about half of the year. And listen to this. His opportunities in Dallas, 284, his opportunities in Carolina, 286. Okay. All right. His attempts, rushing attempts, 235, 236. Okay. His yardage, 1079, 1076. His reception is 39, 39. So would that make the Dallas year? Yeah, it would be impressive. So just the same thing. Six touchdowns last year for Carolina, two for Dallas. But I would say yes to it. I will stand partially corrected there. I think he was a dominator for a small stretch last year. But man, that talk about just doing what you do. Yeah, it's funny because he is, he's shown in stretches that he is a very talented back, you know, hard to tackle,

fully capable in the in the receiving game. Rico has had his moments to shine. Yet no one has ever in his entire not short career been like, you know what? Let's build around Rico. You know what? Let's just make Rico our starter. No one's even been like, he's our starter ever. It's just, he starts every year is the backup. And he's like, okay, he's good enough. Let's give him the ball. And I do agree like that this is his toughest. I think Jalen Warren is going to be his most difficult guy to he was like, washed Zeke. Yeah. Come on. And then Chuba, who was injured when he was fine. And but Rico was better. And so year five for Warren, never had a thousand year in season, never had a thousand year in season, but also never, never really been the full starter. To me, to me, I, I'm on the Jalen, Jalen Warren side. And the reason, first of all, he is the wider shiver running back one on their depth chart right now. In both preseason games, he got the first snap and did not play much, which you kind of like to see those two things in conjunction.

He also has played with Aaron Rogers now for two seasons. And when I look at the opportunities here, I think that the way that I project this is I think Jalen Warren will be the more prominent passing, you know, passing game, not third down back, but the passing game back, then Rico doubt will think that Sharon Rogers will look for him the way that he looked for Kenny Gainwell. There's a reason why Kenny Gainwell led the team in receptions. It's because Aaron Rogers is borderline dad and just checks everything down. The goal line opportunities, I would imagine go more to Rico. I just don't see this offense as one that's going to be like, it is scoring a ton. It is a little funny, though, the idea that like Aaron Rogers was with there with Jalen Warren and not Jalen Warren was that receiving factor. Yeah. But I mean, Jalen Warren does one thing, for sure. He tends to get banged up and he tends to give a backup and opportunity to have a few starts. Can Rico take advantage of that? Yeah. And last year Jalen Warren 14 carries

inside the five weight total and only four five zone touchdowns like and Rico is just it's hard because you want you want the running back to get the receptions and the goal line work. I don't think that that's how it will shake out. But what you do have is, Mike, so Mike McCarthy wasn't Dallas when Rico had the breakout over the second half. Mike McCarthy is in Pittsburgh, brought in a familiar face. So he's he should be ready to go. I I think it's worth getting some exposure to this backfield. I will look, I'm not overloading this where every league I'm in. I'm like, I got to get one of these Pittsburgh Steelers. But I think that there is a there's a decent chance that one of them actually pops and who's upside this higher? Rico. Rico, because of the touchdowns. But like if it if it goes with any history of Rico, just draft Jalen Warren and then around week, I don't know, seven or eight, pick up Rico

doubt. I'm actually targeting doubt. He's the winner. He's the winner in this competition for me on this show for later at the pack. But I like I went through my UDK for the L for the legal record. And I went in and I marked my targets for these rounds. Raya picks and Rico's marked for me. Like I I actually just think that there's a lot of opportunity for him to become the identity of this team. And that just puts me kind of farther in that camp. Leader of the pack for you, Jason, you said Jalen Warren. Jalen Warren would be the guy I would draft. I think he starts as the starter and has more passing work and stays healthy. And Mike, what's that? Are you well? What do you think of this this quote here? And other quotes, right from crazy. I apologize if I mispronounce the name of Mark Cavali Steelers beat writer. So the end of the quote is Doubtless quickness speed, division and power make him much more than a platoon back. Even the Warren is very good. Doubt will be the unquestioned RB one when the season starts. I mean, that will be really surprising if week one to me, to me, if week one comes and he is the unquestioned starter, that would be really surprising given that their official Daptry right now,

list Warren ahead and both preseason games they had Warren be ahead. So the unquestioned part about the trick. Jason you feel right for it. It could be you think I'm not picking Rico Doubtless. I know I know who you're picking. All right. That was leader of the pack presented by Pat Smar. Visit your local pet smart store or go to petsmart.com today, pet smart, anything for pets. News and notes from around the league. We actually got breaking news during this last segment. It's yeah, I mean, if we call it that, it wasn't the kind that you break in for. But the Packers are signing former pro ball tight and Johnny Smith to a one year deal. He is going to join the Packers this year. Be another weapon for Jordan love. Tucker crafted in yesterday said something like I'm done with the snap count or the snap restrictions or whatever that was. But, but Musgrave has been hurt, right? I haven't seen anything about him. Yeah, four days ago, Luke Musgrave

dealing with significant abdomen injury. So this is more of a Musgrave than a Tucker craft. Yeah, I am not as in on Tucker craft as you guys for the draft cost right now for the beginning of the year. I don't think this has any effect on Tucker craft. I will move him down at all from them signing John. Is there a pause here? Alec Pierce is coming off the P.U.P today. All the people. People love it. People are thrilled. Just I mean, it is kind of dozens of them. It's so perfect for it to happen the day after my guys. I mean, it's too late for the literal day after you've been waiting for him to come off the P.U.P. So you could have him be a my guy and then they saved you from that. Yes, but I wouldn't have done it if you had just come off the P.U.P. yesterday. I promise. What are you doing with drafting? I like how slow a start do you think he's going to get off to? He hasn't been running and there's just a lot of factors in this equation right now. Like the the Keenan Allen edition combined with the delayed return from injury is too much for me to be like maybe it's great. Maybe it's great for fantasy because Alec Pierce will be completely

ignored in your draft. This is a $100 million receiver who was super productive last year. And I think we'll be the go to target in this offense who has led the league in yards per reception for two years in a row as a touchdown monster. And maybe he's just free now. Maybe he's just not even thought about Keenan Allen has taken the narrative and the injuries have taken the narrative. Maybe that means that Alec Pierce can be a steal for you in the 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th round. I mean, I don't even know. I think his variability on where he goes and drafts will be massive. Yeah, just completely ignored or somebody's going to try to grab him. And I think I'm going to pass on Alec Pierce in the draft and hope he hits waivers. He won't go undrafted and nor should he. But the opening schedule for the Colts, they play the Ravens, Chiefs and Texans for the first three weeks. And those are going to be the weeks where he's working back into shape against really tough defenses. But if you're drafting him in the 8th, I don't want to hang starting my point is I don't want to hang on to a player who's not doing well the first three weeks, hoping that somewhere later down the line I get like that's a month

into the season. I don't want to have I'm not willing to draft Alec Pierce for and and have him last year. Someone I'm not going to play for a month. Last year against Houston 7 for 132 and 2. Yeah, I'm on the road. I'm more on Andy side. I'd be willing to draft and hold Mike Evans plans to play week one. Good luck. I mean, he has he's had plans. You're your legs don't I plan to miss week one. I mean, you said your legs don't, but it's his growing. Yeah, well, it's not just his growing. It's his quad is growing his ham. It's okay. It's his meat. I was I'm sorry, but we've got rules here and it's his meat is is meat is bad. Sorry bad meat. Why didn't you don't make the rules? I don't make the rules. He Higgins meat is bad. Mike Evans meat is they did like on a like sourd is like like the managers deal. Yeah, you show up. It's got the big yellow sticker on it. 100% of managers are like holy crap. Look at the deal on this meat. It expires tomorrow, but look

what round you get him in. I was in a draft yesterday that FFT open and there's you know, they have their their default ADP on CBS and I'm playing on there. I mean, Mike Evans just sat there and sat there and sat there and sat there. And nobody wanted to be the person to draft Mike Evans. Yeah, the upside is tremendous. My Evans when he is playing when is when the meat is high. I am so confident. Well, this is a I mean, this is a filet mignon on manager special. So they're like the expiration date is coming. But if you cook this thing up in the right time, I say discount baloney. I really exactly right Andy. Exactly right. We nailed this. I genuinely believe Mike Evans will dominate in fan like for fantasy when he is four games for fantasy. Yeah, when he is playing. Like I don't know. Maybe it's a DFS play. But I would say that I I have no I I came in early in the offseason thinking Mike Evans was going to be a my guy. The only worry was manager special age and injury history and this offseason is proved. Yeah, the substation, the subst the electrical

substation. Just a little too loud for me. I don't know where to draft him. I still want him on my teams. But I I think he plays half of a season. I mean, this is and it's going to be sporadic. Oh, there's the manager special. That's is that is that quality? Hey, Mike. Hey, Mike. Yeah. Um, not the most comfortable. Rographic. Uh, Zay flowers still being held out of practice for quote precautionary reasons and should be ready for week one. Yeah, he's fine. Don't worry. As we go on, it's closer to be ready for week one, but not seeing you ready gets more nerve wrecking. Yeah, they're maybe this time of year. He's fine. Everyone is just though. It's so commonly said he should be ready for week one that you can't take it serious anymore. It will as as when we're a week and a half from week one, it's like, is he healthy now or not? When does it change? Well, we'll be ready for next week. It's got to be practice. He's got to be if he's ready for week one, that'll be a part of the situation in the practice for week one.

Too early to tell if James Connor will play in week one. Do we care? Probably not. Yeah. Algier could be a full time starter in week one. I saw a video of Jeremiah love doing some work, uh, trying to get back from the injury. Let's hope he can. Yeah, I mean, with genuinely week one, you could end up with Tyler Algier, Mike Washington and Marshawn Lloyd. Oh, yeah, starts. It's possible that all three are like, that is nasty. And let's be clear, not all of them will finish week one. Health. He probably, uh, the brands are releasing settertell. So it's weird. Settertelman went from sort of relevant. No, they've got a they've got a very deep core now with when I feel like there was a time, though, that you really like. You like that's why I think it's weird. I think settertelman belongs on an NFL team and he can help an NFL team and he was he had to him and very cheap for the roster really severely injured. Yeah. Didn't he out. Was it the concussions or a couple of

things going on for Tillman? I can't remember. I think he had different. There was something where he got a concussion and the kept holding him out over and over. That was the end of, uh, that was the end of 2024. Okay. And then last year he had a four game stretch that he missed. I mean, he really, he didn't do anything of note last year. It this isn't like, hey, settertelman's a really special player, but it's why are you why are you cutting with Isaiah bond with Isaiah bond Jerry Judy, Fanon and the two, you know, first and second round rookies and you're just not going to keep him. It could be a move of the like, hey, you're not going to play. We'll let you find a job. All right. We'll take a break and we'll jump into our mock draft ahead of a big draft weekend. The fantasy footballers mock draft. Okay. We're back into it trying to prep up for the weekend. Uh, 12 team half PPR mock,

one quarterback, two running backs, two wide receivers, one tight end, one flex four bench. I didn't listen to you. Why did you should have? It's just the normal one, right? Yeah. Okay. Got it. I'm good. What were you doing per chance? Uh, he's talking to you drinking. You were taking a sip of water. Yeah. And that this water clogs your ears up. Uh, he can't do two things at the same time. Man, I really can't. I mean, that's, that's not a lie. He does what he's doing. He does well. But if he needs to do multiple. Yeah, he's locked in like we have, let's just put it it this way. We have like very active slack conversations mid show. Yes. The producer's Mike and I everybody on the team. Um, I mean, I most of the time read them after the show. Like very necessary communication. Do that. Um, but yes, one quarterback, two running back, two wide receiver, one tight end, one flex four bench, uh, Jason. Uh, and Mike is in the third spot random selection. Jason and I get to go back to back in a spot of the draft. I don't love 10 and 11.

That should suck. Well, we'll see. And then we have our writing staff production staff and team grabbing the other spots in the draft. It starts with Jumir Gibbs. As the offseason is progressed, it started with who's going to be the number one and it's progressed to a, if you have the 101, you're just the decision is sort of made at this point. Jumir Gibbs, I mean, I, I can't get enough of the way Dan Campbell talks about Jumir Gibbs. And it is proportionally insulting Isaiah Pateco because it is just like, we're going to push this guy. I don't, you see these clips from Dan? Yeah. We're going to push this guy. We think he can be the best ever. He, you know, we're going to, he hasn't even scratched the surface because that, it seemed like the surface had been scratched by Jumir Gibbs at some point in time. A deep scratch. That's like a cut. And they're just like, he, we're going to stretch him. We're going to make him better. Yeah, we, he literally says, yeah, we got Pateco, but anyways, it's, it's the point. They did also, and there's no pua. Right. You don't have to deal with the, the pua quarterback situation. That would be

pin X and two. We, it, you know, not huge news, but Kareem Hunt did visit the, the Detroit lions. Isaiah Pateco is like, I'm free of you. Kareem stealing my touch. No. So we'll see. Oh, that goes. That, that's all Kareem Hunt's managers like, just the only place we can get you to sign. We just got to find out where Pateco is. And they will prefer you. I know where we got a great opportunity. Oh, that's not even that was Pateco going off the cliff. Oh, Jason. So at the end of that sound of James Jimi, your Gibbs goes number one. Kyle had the number one pick. Then B. John goes to Mike is on the, oh, wait, because Pateco is in fact dealing with injury. Well, he had been. Yeah, he had been dealing for last month. Okay. So I think this is looking at the depth, but, um, oh, it's a new injury. Yeah. So he had an injury. He had a dealing with the head and injury. This is like a minute ago. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Isaiah Pateco now dealing with back injury. Don't worry. The knee injury no longer a concern. Sintre Benson, you cowards who is also dealing

with the knee injury. Jason, Jimi, your Gibbs, B. John off the board, Mike, you're on the clock. Where you going? I'm perfectly fine. Uh, if you want to take Christian McAfry right there, if you want to, you know, ride that. That's the situation. And you had your time with CMC and you are just, you're doing what fantasy managers need to do, which is look at every year fresh. Yeah. And you have not pounded the table for him in any draft. I don't think you've ever been against it. No, no, I still, I still just, you've not, it's not been the Mike of last year. Yeah, I still love him as the running back three. Um, but, you know, it, it's hard to argue with the, how much work you got last year. Can it really continue? I mean, if he's healthy, he's going to be awesome. Uh, but I'm going with Jamar chase here. I like some of these running backs in the second round. What, I mean, we'll see how the draft falls, but what I believe about the Bengals this year, I'm going to go with Jamar after chase goes CMC Puka, Jonathan Taylor and James Cook, Hampton at 108 and Json at 109. My hope at 110 was, in fact, I'm on our St. Brown somehow being

there. He is there and I'm going to take him. Did you hope he would be there to 11 Jason? I didn't think it would be there at 11, but I didn't think he'd be there necessarily a 10. And so whenever a player gets one spot before you, or like, Hampton, just, just don't make that one. Just make any other pick. The Hampton pick at 108 is interesting. And I don't, I don't, I'm not criticizing it. I think you can kind of, just like, genty, you can basically plant your flag and say, you know, the key to Mitchell being banged up, like Hampton could start the year on a great team, favorite to win the division, being everything. But I like the fact that kicked. I'm on Rob down the pick. This is my absolute worst start for me because every single player picked is exactly who I would have picked before me. I would have taken Hampton here if he was available. ADP says you are just what have you're in shambles. So I know who I'm going to take with my next pick. I don't think he's going to, I don't think he's going to go out the turn. And so I am sitting here really considering between Chase Brown and Kenneth Walker. It's a little bit high for both of those guys.

Alternatively, I could go CDLAM. But I'm going to, I thought you would do. I figured you, you, you did. But I'm going to go between Chase Brown and Kenneth Walker. Oh, that's tough. You know what? First like, they're, they're both of them are for Mike. Yeah. Well, but one is more, I'm going to take Ken Bone Walker here in the first. Ken Bone Walker. Oh my gosh. You still have that. Well, Ken Walker, I took him in the first yesterday. And you know, I said about it, CDLAM and demand is going to be the worst start. Ken Bone Walker, Chase Brown, fall into your lap if you want it. I'm not taking Chase Brown here. I mean, catch people up that are not watching the screen. Ken Walker at 1111, CDLAM at 112, Devon H&N goes to 201. And so Jason does have the choice of going Chase Brown. He's got options all across the board. And there's, there's one name I'm interested to see if he passes on or he falls to me. There is the guy that is the reason I took Ken Walker in the first round. And my choice

of him or Brown is because I was very confident the next wide receiver would get to me. I am, I am just, I've turned into I'm all entirely in on this guy. I think he could be the wide receiver one this year. But I, I do think he will be a top six wide receiver. I would take him over. Like when I look at Lamb or this guy, I'm like, I don't know anymore. I'm taking AJ Brown. Wow. I am, I, I really think that last year's MVP runner up and that offense and AJ Brown is either he's lost it or he should dominate. Well, I'm thrilled because I feel like everything you'd use to describe AJ Brown is how I would describe a guy who's done it. Most of his career, it was a bump last year. I'll take Jefferson in the second. I'm taking Justin Jefferson at 203 with Amon Ross St Brown. I can't do it. It's pretty tough to keep a player of that ability down. I don't think Kyler's going to do it. Oh, you don't think he's going to keep him down. Yeah, I think, I think Jefferson's going to be like, I think Jefferson had a much larger role in the acquisition

and the guaranteed starting position for Kyler Murray. There were, there was some talk about, you know, what happened in this offseason. I think Jefferson has a, I mean, this is a, you make the wrong call here. You don't find a quarterback to supply the man who is breaking every NFL record at his age. This dude's leaving. Like there were already rumors about Jefferson requesting a trade from this team in this offseason. And I think it's been kept pretty quiet, but I think he had a big role to play. So it, look, it's scary. But when it's 203 and it's not 109 or 105, I'll take it. We'll see how it goes though. It's a mock draft. That's the point. Two wide receivers to start my draft. Chase Brown does go next. Pickens, Barclay, Henry, Bauer's first tight end off the board at 208 and Gentie at 209, Mike, you are on the clock. Let's see. So the, it got pretty running back heavy there. So that's a, it's a bit of a bummer. That none of those guys really fell to me. The wide receiver, you know, Drake London

should work, should work. We're into the names of it should work already. Are you in the camp of, like London's not off the board, which is a little while. Is that because we on this show have thrown the cold water on that situation is then like he may have a Jefferson, like year, like I'm just a little bit surprised. He's this far behind Jefferson. And I'm a little bit surprised that, you know, like who would you bet to have the better year right today? Like today. Between London and Jefferson. Yeah, like Jefferson. Okay. I'll, I'll go that side. But I am, I, both of them, I think have like you, you can see how it goes wrong, not injury related. Just play the play of the team. You can see how it goes wrong. I, I think Minnesota corrects. I'm getting more and more concerned of Atlanta with, with Pua over there. Jack Strand. Two apologies for yesterday's show. One. Oh, I did say the third string quarterback. And I didn't say Jack Strand's name. Yeah. And two,

humongous apology to my fellow Seinfeld. Yeah, I'm glad you brought it up because this is, you need to, you need to address this. The Van Buren boys, their secret signal was, yeah, the eight fingers, eight fingers, which is the eighth president of the United States. That was so missed. Kyle said he was very supportive. Sometimes you get a little worked up when you're talking presidents on the show. Yeah. And you just forget what you know. Oh, there, look, there's Marty. Ebenezer Van Buren. Yeah. It was a little Ebenezer heavy yesterday. Mike, you're on the clock. Are you taking so I'm, I don't know how the turn is going to go. But and I don't know if the ankle is ready for a week one, but I'm taking Jeremiah Love here. I was okay. That surprised me. He's at the top of my board. Man, all right. I was kind of hoping he might get passed on through that third round. Drake London, Nico Collins, Chris Olave, Kyron Williams, Mike, you get a pick

again. I certainly do. Let's see. I got you, Mark. I got, I got love and this is where we're going to, we're going to inject a little bit of risk already in the third round. And we're just going to take Malik neighbors. He, if you're following the news, why didn't we talk about that? Because it's, I don't know if it's a thing or not. Yeah, we don't, we haven't heard any follow-up. He left with a trainer with 20 minutes left to go and in practice, but it wasn't like he was injured and left with a trainer. He just left practice 20 minutes early walking next to a trainer. I mean, literally his head coach came out and said, it's due to injury. I mean, that was the, that was the actual head. I just think it's if a guy's had two surgeries and missed a bunch of offseason and we have a bunch of questions around him. And then he leaves with a trainer to me. There should be more information this morning. Yeah, I mean, maybe he's fine. It's just, I don't want to hear that at all about a play with injury. Agreed. It is high risk, high reward here. Mick Bride goes 304 again, Bowers is 208. D'Vante Smith, Garrett Wilson,

Rashi Ryes, Tett McMill and Lad McConkey. What do you think of that order for that five pack of whiteouts? Which by the way, quite the delight for me needing a running back to see. This round has been seven wide receivers a tight end. I thought I wasn't going to have a shot at a good running back. So Andy, it said that the tweet was Malik walked off with the trainer with 20 minutes left in practice after having a full workload. Harboss said he didn't get an update after practice that the early departure was injury related. Did not. Didn't get an update after practice. It's worded very strange. I thought they said that it was injury related, but he doesn't have an update on it. Yeah. So I may be a different tweet. It's possible. Yes, somebody else might have said something different. I don't know. I don't like it. We don't know. Yeah, we don't know. Hopefully he's totally fine. Well, I know who Andy's taking here. You do. Yeah, for sure. Here's a direct Harboss quote. It wasn't part of the plan. I'll find out what's going on. I'm sure it's something with the trainers. There's no injury. We'll talk afterwards. Okay. I think

correct it. Yeah, that's good. That makes me much happy. Nice pick, Mike. We did it. I think every word he said of that sense, I'm going, huh? So this is awesome for fantasy players right now, because this is rubber meets the road. I have two wide receivers. I'm on Ross, I brought in Justin Jefferson. The obvious pick with no variables in play is Josh Jacobs to be your RB1. He's made to be the RB1. I'm not going to take him here. I cannot have the risk of my RB1 having this suspension thing holding over him. And I have a player that I love. And I mean, he was in my guy consideration too for a period of time or fantasy MVP consideration. I am taking Breeze Hall at the three. I think Breeze Hall, Breeze Hall and Garry Wilson equal Jets offense. It's, you know, they paid him this off season. I have tremendous confidence in it. And I'm willing to let Jacob go call them both bell cows. I know that, you know, Jason will probably take Jacobs. Yeah, I

did. I knew you were going to take Breeze Hall. And honestly, I think if I was on the clock and had to choose between Breeze Hall and Josh Jacobs right now, I would do the same thing. Well, in your position, you had Ken Walker. So you're a little bit more like if you were surprised by a suspension, you're not completely devoid of running backs at that point. So that was part of my consideration. But if I had already taken a running back, maybe I'd go the other way. Yeah. So now that I've got Jacobs and Walker and AJ Brown, I'm looking for another wide receiver. Tervante Williams and Josh Allen went next to. Yes, between my two picks. You know, it's funny here. There's a lot of wide receivers. I like Jalen Warren, Ameka Buka. One guy that I really am considering here would be Jameson Williams. This is much further. I mean, I'm here the turn. So there's no, I just have to take who I think is the best watch receiver. And I would say that of those guys, I would take, I would have taken Jameson Williams of T Higgins wasn't on the board, but T is a tier above for me. It's this because of the

meat comments earlier. He's that in the back. Unrelated. The meat comments are unrelated. But I go on meat Higgins. I'm going to meet Higgins. I didn't. Knowing that you're not retiring Joe Burrow is a pretty big deal to me. Yeah, that's not the plan, at least. We'll find out tomorrow night. Live with the van Buren. All right. Considerations for me here. I'm right back on the clock. I'm on Ross Saint Brown, Jefferson, Breeze Hall. The trouble I have here is I am a big believer in Travis H. Ann Jr. in New Orleans. That's at the top of my running back list. But a wide receiver, Ameka Buka is sitting there. They flowers is sitting there. Both of those guys I see in an elite year. So it's kind of between those two spots. I will be really thin at running back and the running backs are a bit of trouble down the way. So long wait for me. I'm going back and forth here. Bucky Irving. We've heard pretty good stuff. Camp Scataboo's on the board. And that kind of ends my list of, you know, I'm not taking Travegan, even though he was a my guy yesterday, right? Yeah. No, I know he was a my guy. I believe you did it. You should take him. You did it twice. I'm going to go ahead and pull

the trigger on Z flowers here at 403. My man. I'm going to take Z flowers. I mean, I wish you wouldn't, but I don't know if you can get much better than Um on raw Jefferson flowers. It that's stack. That's a lot of targets. So I'll go. That's healthy. Colson Lovelin at 404. There he goes. Oh, Mr. Louveland, Deandre Swift stolen from the grip of Mike. Right. I figured Julia would do that. Camp Scataboo, Jaylin Waddle off the board. Waddle very excited for him. And then there goes Travis H and Junior and a mecca Buka. So Mike has Chase, Love and neighbors. I'm going to give him a second. We'll take a break. I won't come back and finish this mock draft. I'm really happy to hear that neighbors update compared to the tweet. I like about half of it. Yeah. I mean, just what part did you like the part where it wasn't injury related? Well, it was why did he leave it to trainers though, man? Yeah. That's part of the part you didn't like.

Guys, they've been hanging out a lot. Was this a fro y'all thing? Yeah. They're just, there's bro and no they probably were going to miss the discount if they didn't leave about 20 minutes early. All right. You got to get those punch cards filled. Yeah. I mean, you got to get out of the $10 off of frozen zone, whatever neighbors should do everything you can to walk off practice as far away from trainers as possible. So we're not confused. Mike, you're on the clock. Chase, neighbors, love. It's a little interesting because like, love and neighbors are both kind of risky business to start the year. They are. I think that love by the time it showed. I don't know. I don't because we're not getting full reporting out there. Deandre Swift would have been a delightful pick right here. How do you phone to me in the fourth round? But it does give me an opportunity. A player who have been hot and bothered for most of the offseason and just the drafts have not worked out for me. But I still believe I am taking Bay shaltu tten of the jacks of old Jaguars. I think that he will be the main guy and

you know, I think it will this whole the quint Allen is playing third down and we're rotating crad. I think when it comes down to it, it's going to be Bay shaltu tten as the majority of the backfield. All right. After toot and goes Bucky Irving finally at 411. That was a tough choice. I'm sure toot and Irving different committees situations there. Tyler Warren, Gideon price. Gideon price at 501. That's a good deal. And you knew Kyle. I mean, with his hatred of Colson love, Lance. Let me would have horse take one. By the way, that's price over Monty. Judkins. It's price over. I would. Yeah, I'm fine with that. I think it's the exact right spot for him. DJ Moore at 502. Did you guys see the comments from DJ Moore yesterday? I did not. It was kind of what's he got to say these days? He was so complimentary of Josh Allen that it was an insult to Caleb Williams. Yeah, I think DJ Moore is not a little bit bitter about last year. It was it was kind of interesting because it was about like the off the field relationship

and how it helps the on field relationship. It seemed like it was saying some stuff. You know what I mean? Like obviously he's going to be happy and proud of his new quarterback. Josh Allen isn't out there doing the same spreads. Oh, that. He's modeling. Jason's fine. Yeah. No, a magazine spread is obviously what I meant. You know, look, look, we shouldn't have asked that so fast. Caleb is, you know, he's out there. Jason was in the middle of this picture. Williams is a much better looking dude than Josh Allen. No reason that. Josh Allen's of super handsome guy. Hailey Steinfeld. Oh, I'm not counting that. I'm just saying Caleb Williams is much much better than the real man. The team not saying Caleb Williams is unattractive. But it sounds like you're saying Josh Allen is unattractive, which is nonsense. Yeah, it sounds like it sounds like you took this in a direction I didn't expect it to go. I'm just trying to just trying to get into the L. All right. More off the board. Mike back on the clock. He's two wide two running backs. And this one is brutal because I know what my opportunity costs. There's two players that I am,

I am locked into. And I know I won't get one of them. And that makes me really sad. All this, whatever, all this walk through it. It's, look, my guy Christian Watson, we are in the range where he will not make it back to the 610. So I love him as a wider see where three I think that that is incredible. But Joe burrow to go with my Jamar chase here and strike the fear of God into everyone who is matched up against me in a week. I mean, that's hard to pass on as well. I think you might get him next round though. Joe burrow. I mean, you're good. You have only one quarterback off the board. You're talking Lamar, Daniels. I'm just throwing it out there. Sure. And again, every person in this draft is listening to our internal. They were already at this point. It was though. It was already. I just wondered if you would get, I feel like you would get him in a normal draft. Maybe not now that we've set it out loud because asking our staff not to troll us. Imposs. No one's going to get

his go. He and he would have gotten Joe burrow. This I wrote down forever. Go 5.3 Joe burrow. Because I knew you were the only guy taking them from me. I mean, now anyone could take them from me because I got to Higgins. Yeah, it's like this because you have to Higgins. Doesn't mean you should take it. It'll burrow at 5.11. No, I wouldn't. I'd take him at 6.2. Really? Yeah. But I mean, I was just, I knew you were going to, I was so happy you didn't tell me. So wait, hold on. I mean, I feel like this is really, really cool. Raking news here. We're like, you're going to take burrow who I know isn't, I mean, you have probably several quarterbacks ahead of the burrow. He's my quarterback three and six point. Oh, he's going to be here for you, Jay. Yeah, I mean, he usually would be there. The only question is, will the Jamar Chase person pull that stack off or not? And then obviously the person between me, you've never seen a burrow fight. It does about to retire. That's a weird. I think he said he wasn't. Yeah, you're going back for it. You think I have any control over this stuff? Yes, I do. Actually, you think I tried to kill the Queen. I know that I don't know that you didn't try. Rest in peace, mash, mouth. Um,

yeah. Okay. So huge wide receiver run. Yeah. That makes me feel Williams McClure and Evans burdened. Tate. Juddkins goes off the board. I was kind of hoping for Juddkins to be my RB two there. I end up with David my opportunity. Um, we've got a fancy time machine. So we're going to talk about David Montgomery tomorrow. Jason, you're on the clock. I'm just, I mean, maybe you can take burrow at 5 11 and 602. Maybe. So obviously the person between me on the turn has jaw shalon. I know I would never take Joe burrow here, but I do love the idea of stacking Joe burrow with T Higgins. Um, however, there are, there are a lot of players here that might just be better for my team. Traveon Henderson, Devonte Adams and Roma Dunesay are three players. I absolutely love, um, in this spot. So I'm, I'm balanced at wide receiver and running back. I'm going to take either Devonte Adams or Roma Dunesay. I have been rising higher and higher on Devonte Adams lately. Some of the quotes coming out from McVeigh about watching the film and

and seeing that he had a lot more to give as part of the reason they backed out of the AJ Brown trade. But I'm also a believer in Rome. I'm going to take Devonte Adams. Old man. Uh, I'm going to pull the trigger and I think that he will still be good this year. The nice, the nicest thing about Adams is that the words version of Adams can seal score double digit touchdowns in this offense. And the best version of Adams is much better than his ADP. He's going to be an injury risk. He's one of the two oldest. He's less of an injury risk today than Mike Evans is as the other oldest. A dunesay does go next Parker Washington at 601 Jason you're back on the clock. And now I'm sitting here. This is where I said it. The six two. I was going to take Joe burrow, which I like the value is fine. I stack him with T Higgins. Great quarterback. There are a lot of late round quarterbacks. I like considering the fact that I already have two running backs. I know I'm travo. Travo. That's that's that's who I'm actually going to take. I'm going to

travo is an RB three. Yes is in the six round is where he's not just a depth chart in New England. Yeah, sure. It's where he should be going in the six round. Most of this offseason has been a fourth round or now you know you can take their RB one right there though. Yes, I could have taken Ramondra Steven said, but as my RB three, I am going for the highest upside at the pick. So we'll see if there is a burrow makes it back to you. I'll take Ramondra right after Trevo there as another running back for my team. There was another report yesterday about how Ramondra is performing at camp and how good he looks. So I'm I'm all in on him. I think he could be I think he could be very very good. Lamar goes at 604. Croskey merit at 605 crap. And Marvin Harrison, what a steal at 607 I think. I think so. Jalen Hertz goes next. Yeah, I knew you would do it Josh. Yeah, that's my point. It's just it's such a stupid pick for your team. It doesn't make any sense. You have it. You took

a tight. Nobody has nobody has the courage to just do this draft properly, but Joe. I'm do the pick. It's dumb. Josh, you don't even want burrow. You don't. Yeah, I'm taking it away. I'm in fact, I'm drafting somebody. Thank you. So listen, Joe. But here was don't doubt the power of the commissioner go back in time. What a the reason I thought you could get him, Mike, which I totally believed was because even though Jason had a written down on a piece of paper, I knew when he gets on the clock, he's going to see names that when no other quarterbacks have been off the board, he's going to pass on him. You were a good friend to me because he got there and he could have taken out of and and and trave on. So I just saved you all around Mike. You got a lot in the burrow. And there was no other way you were getting both those dudes. No, no, there was not Josh selected Drake May, not burrow. Yes, because he even even Drake May is a dumb pick for you there, man. Why are you taking Joe burrow was actually a good pick for him, I think. I know what you're saying

because he already had a onesie. But since he has two running backs, two out of series, I wouldn't have blamed him in a real job. Yeah, why was he holding it was probably for trolling Brian Thomas junior, Godwin, doubtful and stripling. Dejan in the seven. You're telling me the guy who's team name in the league of record is grumpy old trolls. Mm hmm. Was trolling. Yeah. Nice. It's ridiculous. Take the map. You got so close to like nobody trolling there. Yeah. As Dejan stripling at seven oh two goes behind Godwin, which I think is interesting. Mike, you're back on the clock here at seven oh three. And you know what I must do. Uh, they're the running back position is. Yeah, it's getting just kidding. The running back position or leg were at the currently two at the top of the ADP is Warren Chuba. Chuba, like Chuban Tony Pollard. I could not be more is I don't want them on the team. I don't want to. I don't think you

would take them with your last round pick. Dad, I that's where Warren is for me. Warren's in that group of those two dudes. I just don't want them on my team. I just don't have interest. So JK Dobbins is there for me at seven oh three. I have I might my my faith in JK Dobbins has been very, very strong all off season because RJ Harvey. I will be honest, the Jonah Coleman love that Sean Payton is bestowing upon him has me more nervous about a possible a larger time share than I want. All right. We are cooking here in the seventh round. Dobbins Sutton. Jonathan Brooks. Great pick by cash money. Uh, fan and off the board. And then Jaden Daniels goes as the quarterback six really bad news about that offensive line lately. Losing to losing tonsil is a huge problem for them because the the commander's office of line with tonsil was a huge problem. Mm hmm. And then you lose your best player on that offensive line. And I think there's big time

concern. I think we're all concerned about that offense. I'm concerned about Daniels. I would I Daniels is almost not being drafted by me like I don't I don't think I would not have considered him at seven 10. The there's guys I like more. It's it's like and it's a bunch of people. A bunch of beat reporters are like yeah. What's that last quote yesterday? Uh, well the one that we need. Oh gosh. I'm gonna butcher that last name. Uh, Jovala. This is the worst. I've ever seen the commander's offensive line in years in operable. In operable. That's heavy. That means the offense was not doing well. Yeah, inoperable. Yeah. I sounds like a tumor. No, it's not the tumor. Alex Pearson, Jaylen Warren goes off the board. I'm back on the clock. Honestly, when you have it, when an offensive line is just that bad. In every year, there's a team or two that has the offensive line where there's there's nothing that this team can do. You're running everything. You're quarterback. You're running back. You're wide receiver. Everything just gets nerfed. It's

not that they won't have some stats and some games. But anytime they're matched up against the competent defensive line, you're like, can I play bill this week? That I mean, you might have probably not the running back position may be inoperable for the commander. It's very possible. I'm going to take Caleb Williams. Well, my guy at seven 10 here. That's a good pick. And I've got Almond Raj, Jefferson and Flowers. Breeze Hall Montgomery and Stevenson. I feel pretty good. I feel like the depth is there. Jason, you're back on the clock. You've got Walker Jacobs Henderson with AJ Brown Higgins and Adams. That's a very similar situation. You're you have depth. You have upside and you're on the clock. Yeah. And I think I'm going to probably looking at the quarterbacks that are left. I like Jackson, dark and dark. Press got I'm going to take one with my next pick right here. I would be looking at the tight end position. If I liked Kyle Pits, the way the Andy did, I would take him. I don't. So I won't. The running backs that are on the board. They're the guys that that might just illustrate like Chuba and Tony Pollard starters. You just don't want. There's really no

upside and eventually they'll probably lose their jobs. I'm going to take someone who doesn't have the job yet. I would love to leave my drafts with him everywhere that I can. And if he's my running back four, I don't have to worry. He can be a stash. There is the world where he has a flex with benefits, but should an injury happen to Karen? Well, Karen Williams. Again, I've said this forever. I think Karen is going to be an RB one for fantasy. I'm bullish on Karen, but core. Yes, but Blake. Corm is not a he's a great player and should an injury happen. He is a league winner. All right. Mason and the port adjacent you're right back on the clock here with 802. You do have your ones. He's left. I have my tight end left and Mike, you have your tight end left throughout the remainder four rounds. Jason has some options. Yeah. I'm between Dac and Jackson Dart. Dac and Dart. I think darts. Why does that sound so dark? Dac and Dart. I think darts

upside is higher, but that is so good. He's never not been a I do think it is. I do think it is because he can rush for 800 yards. And if you do that at the quarterback position, your upside can be tremendously high. Again, I just took that. Yeah, I mean, he was on pace for 750 or something last year. He'll be an on pace guy the rest of his career. Fair. The injuries. Yeah, I mean, again, I I drafted Dac. Yeah, yeah. Dac is the peace card. Dac you. Yeah, he's always a quarterback one and oftentimes very many, you know, several times through his career has been a top five quarterback. If he plays a season, he's fantastic with those two wide receivers and a bad defense. I mean, it's basically Joe burrow cheap. It's the cheaper Joe burrow. We were on with Mina Kimes yesterday, and she asked us that question after we said we kind of, you know, we're mostly positive about hurts for the draft price. It was like hurts versus Dac. And we were all like, well, I'll take Dac. Like the price on Dac with the upside of that receiving core. I went with Casey Konsep

Sean at 803. A little surprised. Yeah, I look, I have a long way. This is part of draft strategy. I have the way to round and a half and there's two Kyle picks in there. So I know that Kyle probably would have snagged him at the end of the round. But this is a spot where I can get some upside of wide receiver. I'm excited about him. Harvey Herbert Wilson, Gainwell, Kyle's upset, Kettle, Hubbard and Mike, you're on the clock. By the way, I for tight end, I have four guys at the back of the draft when I don't have a talk tier name. There's so many. There's four names at least that I am completely willing to wait till the last one goes pits, likely got it and can cade. Those four names until that tier is gone. I'm not going to rush it. I'd rather take Konsep. I would throw Jolande Johnson in there. Yeah, you can. Yeah, I'm a manager with throw TJ Hawkinson in there. Oh, he is. He's all in. I'll tell you who I haven't heard anyone talk about the draft. He was when I got to the end of my CBS draft and you look at the ADP. I scrolled three or

four times and oh, there's Hawkinson down there. Yeah, I mean Hawkinson, Eli Stowers. Well, there I'll go Hawkinson. Mike, you're on the clock. So cash taking George Kettle there really takes some wind out of the sales because that would George Kettle in the eighth. I thought about it. The car pits is there was there at least. I don't know if he'll make it back to you. Is he still there? Yep. Yeah, and now I'm not taking him. So he was. Oh, come on Mike. You should do it. Who standards? It would help you. Who is, you know, short area targets. The running back position where just it's like you're just you're grabbing some high level insurance guys or Tony Pollard is still there. That's a great pick for you having Jeremiah love. Right. Let me make a argument. Okay. You have injury prone to abins. You have Jeremiah love who might not start the year and you've got Bay Shaltotan who may we may see some committees settling

situations to start the year. Whereas Tony Pollard, eight of eight opportunities with the starters in the last game looked good, looks bright on the sideline. That's all I got. I, let's man, I'm working out some strategy in my head here. So good. We're in the eight. We just have a couple rounds left. I do need my tight end, but at this point, I just, I don't know if I care really who it is. I am going. We always play with an IR spot, which is very important for this draft pick. I'm taking Jordan Tyson and I'm just going to stab about that. I was fully expecting him to get back to me. Gotcha. Yeah. I mean, that's, it's aggressive and early because you know, Mackay Lemon went just after I want to take a lemon over Tyson. My dream was to get both those guys the next turn. They went at this turn. So that was a stupid dream. But yeah, if you do have an IR spot, Jordan Tyson late in drafts. I would take him over lemon myself. Yeah. Yeah, I just think the pathway is much cleaner. Despite the injury and lemon, Addison, Lloyd,

and Dart off the board. Mike, you're in the ninth. So trying to look over at my tight end rankings. Doesn't matter. So cop hits is there. Dalton can cade. I can make the path for Dalton can cade to really pay off. Kelsey, if you just want the floor Ferguson, only if CD or George misses time. Isaiah likely. He that's probably why Andy passed on pits just because he had the Isaiah likely rip cord. I'm going to and then man, running backs are absolutely a disaster at this point. I'll just take one more high upside wide receiver. We, we, we haven't talked about him in quite a while. I'm going to take huge. All right. Clinton Johnson. Apparently you really disappointed Papa Josh. I heard a grown you can't you can't huge grown in the one guy I had cute up. Get a cute. Yeah, sweet. I love my keen. You can't just down this probably a such a better pick. You can't grown for

Qt in the night. You can't downs. Pollard golden. I was targeting golden. I was targeting golden downs and huge read one Dale. And here we go. Do you came back off off the board? A name popped into my head a moment ago that I'm going to take here. I still have a bunch of the, I mean, high pits is there. I'll take high pit. Yeah. But come on. You got it. Because the other name that I have is going to get to me at the next pick. So what's that name? What is that? I think cop it's probably would have as well. I think it's to recalling. I think that was a dinosaur. I love that dude. Mike or Jason, you're on the clock here. You do need a tight end. But otherwise you are friend clear. The rest of all right. You know, I ended up with the sloppy leftovers of the Steelers. I was going to take DK Meckkaff or Michael Pittman once all the guys that I like are gone. Michael Golden, Matthew Golden, Josh Downs, Cughed, Mkylem and Jordan Tyson, like all those guys better. But I mean, Meckkaff and Pittman is so funny. Like they are legitimate, highly paid,

successful NFL water receivers who are, I mean, they're being drafted after guys that are injured for the first month of the season should be fine for fans. That was a bread on a pit sandwich there. Meckkaff, Pitt's pitman. That's crazy. Too top to, I mean, that is how we think of Rogers production this year. Digs, Charbonne, Jason, back on the clock, two picks left. This is my late round hopeful target at tight end. Yeah. Is Dalton, Kinkade, you know, Andy's in on pits at the end. I'm in on Kinkade at the end. I think pits is safer. Um, Kinkade has, I think, a path to be really, really special. Yeah, I can't imagine myself taking Kinkade over pits in any situation where like pits for his, all his warts had a great year. Oh, cash. By the way, I took Romeo Dops. That was the name I mentioned. Romeo Dodgers, 1003 Cyrus talent Aaron Jones, Jalen Koch or Trevor Lawrence, Tyler Ajir, Woody Marx, Alton Gord. I was going to bring Al Jair up to you at this pick,

assuming he would be there. Good pick. I figured I could take huge and be safe getting Tyler Ajir in the 10th, but now when Chris Cash is around, taking my picks, it's like a wild west villain. Chris Cash. Yeah. Fast as draw on the wet. Descending missus shipping. Chris for cash. There you go. You do need the Christopher. So looking at I need a tight end, looking through the turn. One of the teams has a tight end. The other one does not. So I mean, you have the opportunity here, Mike, to take the right pick in Isaiah likely or the wrong pick and not Isaiah likely. Well, there's two tight ends that I am perfectly fine going into the year with you're going to go on. Yeah. So I'm just at this point. Yours is funny. If you take jaw on, it's great for your team because when he when he when Tyson returns and jawons are relevant, you got to do a little swapsky, but you'll need a tight end. I will. I'm going to take Tink Bixby. That was the real left turn out of that conversation

between them. Well, I told you the I didn't really care if it was likely or or jaw on Johnson. Washington, Alan Nicks likely, Johan Johnson in the 11th, I'll let Brittany get that Kyle. Monunguy. I love that pick in the last round for Papa Josh. Monunguy. Just because he hasn't been, you know, he's missed some camp. Doesn't mean they don't like this guy that he's not going to have a role. Chris Rodriguez, Don Tavy and Wix, Patrick Mahomes off the board as we close this thing out. And Dallas got it. Goes at 1108. We've got three picks left. I have Jonah Coleman, Qedup. He has the pick at 1110. And Jason makes his final pick as we close this mock out. Don Tavy and Wix just real quick. That's a really light round sleeper. I mean, I look at him like dobs. So I took dobs ahead of him, but both guys should start. Yes. They should start. Why does he were two on good teams? And I look, it's probably just anecdotal, but in, you know, it's teammates, but like I just saw Barkley talking about Don Tavy and Wix. And he

uses like real, it felt like real genuine. Like I believe in this player. I can't believe we got him for, for so cheap. So I just that Wix is Wix belongs as a late run sleeper. That's the first time I have ever seen Omar Cooper drafted in my entire life outside of, you know, rookie drafts. Caleb, John, Caleb Douglas with Jason's final pick. And then, yeah, yeah, terrible, terrible final. But how insane is it? I took Caleb Douglas, a late round drafted guy on a, you know, a terrible office. It won't work. Absolutely. Caleb Douglas will now work over a first round NFL wide receiver this year in Omar Cooper, Jr. And I would do it 100 out of 100 times. Yeah. Yeah. All right. That is it for today's mock draft. Let's run it back. The the roster is here. I'm on Ross, Abraham Jefferson, Flowers, Conception and Dobs at my wide receiver position. I like that. Breeze Hall Montgomery, Stevenson and a late Jonah Coleman.

And my ones is Caleb Williams and Kyle Pits. I've got Ken Bone Walker, Josh Jacobs, Travion Henderson and Blake Korum. I know you wanted to hit that. Yeah, but I wasn't on the right screen. But Ken Bone Walker. I've got AJ Brown, T Higgins, Devonte Adams, Michael Pittman and Caleb Douglas at wide receiver and then Dak Prescott and Dalton Kincaid in my onesies. Jamar Chase, Malik neighbors, Christian Watson, huge and then Jordan Tyson are my wide receivers. Jeremiah Love, Basel Tut and JK Dobbins and then Tank Bigsby as insurance are my running backs. Juansson is my starting tight end for the time being and then Joe Burrow to go with Jamar Chase. We've got fantasy time machine tomorrow. That's always a fun fan favorite.
