Full Transcript for Bold and unexpected first-round picks

days not crucified. So I don't Oh sorry, I didn't, no, no, no fun unintended. Oh please, I thank you good? You know what, though, I look at this with Hugh Jackson, look at some of the quarterbacks that he's worked with and the guys he's able to have success with. I don't think it's that bad a situation. I think it's like John Travolta walking in and working on pulp fiction with Quentin Tarantino. And I think if Hugh Jackson can bring back Rejuvenate Baby, if he can rejuvenate r G three, it will be on that level. It will be his Viney Vega pulp fiction moment. Okay, yeah, big, it's just not gonna happen. Not that it can't happen, not that Hugh Jackson can't do it, but I feel like the work that needs to be done to get r G three back to being, certainly for fantasy purposes, like a worthwhile option. It's probably just not gonna happen any amount of time they're gonna have with him, because they're still gonna go out and draft a quarterback, likely right, whether it's Carson Wentz or James your muffs, Jared Goff, don't do it, Cleveland, tell him do it. I you know what? Then? I mean that gives RG three maybe two years to kind of get himself right before the new guy comes and takes over. I really though, But they have an account, they're still they really he's on a trading block now. But I don't look at any of those quarterbacks who are being drafted right now. Is sure things. And if you're Cleveland and you have so much work to do, why not build your franchise to all the other positions you look, he's gonna look. I know, it's a complete mess. So why would you bother with a quarterback who's real not gonna make a difference for the next couple of years. Why not just try to build around him and and try to get some other pieces in there. And if you look at like the Raiders example, they what it sounds like is your It sounds like Cleveland is like, hey, uh, let's just throw r G out RG three out there. He's gonna get killed, that's fine, whatever, have a quarterback in the future, come on down. But their help account they're gonna go with. If they just go with McCown, play with him. See what you got out of r G account. He's gonna he's gonna be he's already gone. They're gonna trade him. I think I don't think he's gonna be back. They're not gonna keep three quarterbacks on there. I still don't think that they need to draft a quarterback. I think there's a lot of other positions that they could work on. It's not like the quarterback that fixes everything. It's not like you just take a young guy and you're like, yeah, yeah, we're good. Now we're set. Like no, no, no, there's so many different things. Cleveland. Let everybody go. Anybody who was worth their salt in Cleveland is gone. Joe Thomas gone, Mitchell Schwartz gone, Travis Benjman gone. I mean like all these guys, Johnny Football gone. So anybody who was worth anything is gone. So they're starting at the very bottom. It's gonna be very similar to this Raiders situation when Renjie mackenzie took over.

They actually regressed for a couple of years before they got better. And I think Cleveland's willing to do the work right now and say, you know what, We're gonna take a couple of steps back, let's go through, let's really dig deep on this team, and perhaps they can get a quarter a team looking for a quarterback to trade up, maybe get some additional picks or whatever they're gonna do. But I don't feel that they're gonna go quarterback. This from a fantasy perspective, I man, other than Gary Barnage, is there a guy that that you would draft on that team, on that team at all? Fire and think John later. Okay, the thing is like, yeah, r G three's fantasy future right now not promising. But if they get Josh Gordon back, Hugh Jackson just addressed in the news today that they need to address the wide receiver position. Maybe maybe, like Rank says, they trade it back a little bit, they get they get Joss Doxon in there all of a sudden. So now we've got some interesting pieces like it's going to be a wait and see approach. It is at least better than RG three being the scout team safety in practice. And put by the way, can we put a moratorium on the phrase if they get Josh Gordon back because the because because like the time for the league to to rule on his reinstatement, that deadline is coming gone and nobody has made a move on anything. I mean, they asked Roger Goodell about it in the press convent. He was like, basically, oh, yeah, I don't know. I guess that's on my desk. Maybe I'll get to it. I mean like, there's no, there's not been one iota of movement on it. And I think everybody's like, especially with this r G three thing, is looking at and saying, yeah, man, they were graded Baylor together. Imagine if they were on the field in Cleveland together. And it's at this point because the league has shown no inclination to bring Josh Gordon back, let's not even talk about it until it actually potentially becomes a thing. What if he comes back is potentially? Yeah, what if? What if? What if? Bro? The Packers have Saint Jared Cook? Yeah, buddy, speaking of what if? Bro? Uh is he Alex? Did you put? Is he a sleeper in Green Bay? Yeah? Serious question? Well, this is this is a this is a hilarious discussion to have and Harmon and I were talking about at the house last night, and this is why I think you saw James. You retweeted it too. I jokingly said, I was like, Uh, Jared Cook at eight touchdowns in his three years with the Rams, could he exceed that in one year with the Packers? I don't, let's know what's Well, that's the thing though, because it's Jared Cook, like he is if we get into the fantasy fool's gold section later, he is the epitome of it. Like size Speed guy was so bad last year he was getting benched on the rams. Though. However, Richard Rogers, who was basically like a like a zamboni out on the football field as quickly as he moves, caught eight touchdowns last year. He's cleaning it up. Way to turn that around. Anyways, The poll we put out

got almost really yes, it's possible, stop it. I voted stop it. F y stopped. I don't think that's a terrible that's a terrible prediction, Like I could see eight touchdowns Jared Cook. Eight touchdowns for Jared Cook. You don't think that's a terrible prediction. That's horrible. He's horribly inconsistent, and he was somebody that fantasy enthusiast would get all jacked about and be like, no, this is gonna be a year. I grew frustrated with him about four years ago and stopped even like ignoling, yeah that he existed. But this move with Green Bay, I think like there's some there's an there's an actual chance that's fantasy relevant, Like if you're ever gonna buy in with Jared Cook. Now is the time, I mean, with that offense, with that quarterback and this this is this is what we're talking about. A team where like not comming last year where everybody was was slower, dead in the Packers pass catching corps, or or that too where he Rogers missed half a year. He threw thirty nine and forty five touchdowns the three years before that, Right, Jared, Jared Cook is huge. He's six five, he's he's fast. He can stretch the middle of the field. With Jordy back. Say Jordy gets ten or eleven, Cob gets eight or nine. You're telling me there's not room for Jared Cook to fall, you know, backwards into into eight touchdowns. Not a chance. I'm not saying it's going to happen, but a chance. I mean, if if it's zero percent, I put it at zero percent. I feel like there's a non zero percent. I mean, this is guy, This is a guy who scored. That's a lot. You have five O eight is a lot. He had five with Let's see who was throwing him the ball that years. The combination of Sam Bradford and Kellen Clemmons. Yeah, buddy, and he scored five. I'd like the thing, you know, with Aaron Rodgers. He could up there. I mean, look, if he can't do it here, oh yeah, it'll never happen. It's just the quarterback is the tide that raises all the past catcher boats too. So I don't disagree with that, but I'm just saying, there's so many other guys. Look at the offense. Yeah, what so you think Davante Adams is gonna gonna vulture all those touchdowns from him? Hey, it's your boy, Jeff Janice, your boy. You've been talking about Double Jay. If he gets on the field again, we saw what he could do. But McCarthy is probably gonna be like I think Jeff still needs look time Montgomery's out there. I think he's still coming back from a serious injury though, I hey, listen him coming back from I'll take time Montgomery coming back from serious injury over Jared Cook, all right. I just think Jared Cook's an interesting guy. Depending on how the off season goes, I think his ceiling is five to throw a late round dark at, especially in MFL tens and uh and season long, depending on what the off season word out of campus. I think His ceiling to me is five. If nothing else, he'll be a great streaming option. I think his floor is zero. That they did not pay him insignificant money, though they paid him three milks, I know. I was surprised by that. I was surprised by that. I thought they could have got I thought they could have got math Forte for that guy. They so desperately needed speed at the tight end position. They do. Alright, Arian Foster meeting with the Dolphins. I'm not sure if he'll sign, won't They won't won't sign yet. That was put out by Rappaport, NFL media insider in Rappaports, um, so could the Dolphins and Texans be making a trade of swords? Can I ask you something, Jimmy Comb? Yes? Uh? Why when we talk about terrible franchises. We're talking earlier in the show about Hey C Cleveland fantasy that why do the Dolphins not get mentioned with the horrible NFL fansip? Like, seriously, the Dolphins are the brown The Dolphins are the Browns with palm trees. Like it's first, first of all, that sounds better already. They're an insignificant that sounds better already, insignificant franchise. If it wasn't for that, what year was at seventy two that they went undefeated? Those guys coming out of the woodworks insignifica. He was fine, he was a good quarterback. He's one of the best. What did he see? One of the best? What do you feed this tangent up? Please? But I'm like, why, no, it's not a tangent. But it's like, why does why do they know we're talking about it? Because we're the Dolphins are a train wreck and I know now, like they have made one playoff appearance since Oh dang, what does that mean? It means it's not a good franchise. But nobody gives them any scrutiny, Like nobody puts them under that thing, like everybody likes there's no way there's this is your hot take, so bad. Listen, this is your take, it's not a hot tag. Should get we should get director of programming and we bring it back to fantasy please. Like, while while they haven't gotten scrutiny in our world is because the last two years they had a top ten running back, they've had a top ten Jarvis Landry's there now that Sante Parker. But anyways, back to Freddy Antanna, Hill's a disappointment. Okay, that's fine. Back to Foster if he does eventually sign with Miami this summer, does anybody like that fit? And what do we think it does? To j J? I? I mean I do like it, I you know. I mean the thing with Arian Foster isn't really about the fit or where he lands. I think he fits everywhere. It's just about canny stay on the field. Can you stay healthy? I mean so if you know, And the explosiveness too, because the injury he had Achilles Achilles is one of those things that just SAPs you of of that explosiveness. Westling mentioned this, mentioned this on the Around the NFL podcast yesterday. But there aren't there isn't a long history of running backs coming back the same from achilles. Now. Granted also made the caveat that the Achilles surgery and recovery has come a long ways. But but still that's you know, walking around when after he ruptured his achilles, like he looked terrible. Like I think of anybody who had an Achilles injury, like you see them, like DJ Daniel

Jeremiah, He's a scout here for he doesn't have the same explosive the podcast room. It's just not the same. Um. I mean, I don't expect for him if he goes to Miami, for instance, I don't think he's going to be the same kind of work warse he was earlier in his career in Houston because because of the age, the age and the injuries. So I do think you'll see some j G I E kind of get some work in there. And I think, you know, if anything, if you're the Dolphins, this is your way to kind of help a gi E get up to speed. You bring in a quality, veteran presence, a guy who can still be productive and sort of you know, have that passing of the torch along the way. So I don't think that it completely kills and gis value. But I do think, you know, I think Foster could be a nice kind of low end RB two potentially in Miami if if that's where he lands. I don't get what arian Foster wants to go there. Yeah, that's that's what I don't get. Because they have palm trees, they have palm that's it's good. I mean, he's originally no income tax and from San Diego it's similar, similar situation. Okay, I get it. I get that part, But that's the one thing. I mean, why why wouldn't he go to a team that's much much closer to being the San Diego Chargers? And where would you go? Like, why wouldn't you just sign with New England? I I do that. I fantasy book everybody who's a veteran who's enough and there's made enough money to it's hey, why not go to? Like where did Nick Nick Fairley signed with the Saints? And you're like, dude, did New England just not want you? Like what happened? Like if if you were choosing and you're like, now, I'm gonna go with the Saints because they're paying I don't know. I don't think Louisiana. I don't think they have state taxes either. I don't think you're right. Um, so maybe that's a plus. New Orleans is awesome, but still like I would be like, did I like New England? Just is that team that you feel is always going to be challenging for the Super Bowl? And I would want to be there? Sure? Why not make my money? And then I will go get Colin Kaepernick. Yeah, Buddy is staying with the forty niners unless San Francisco is quote blown away buy an offer. That was the report this morning. I can Chip Kelly do anything with Colin Kaepernick? I mean, he's been talking about blame gabber but I wonder personally if that's more of a management type situation where they're trying to drive I know that the front office reportedly really likes blame gabber um, and so you know, I don't know how much that has to do with it. On paper, Colin Kaepernick is the fit to Chip Kelly's offense, is he not? I as you know. But part of it is fixing the mechanical issues he had. I mean, regardless of of system fit, the fact is, you know, he's too late in his career to fix that throng he was throwing one hoppers, you know. I mean he was great if he was coaching infield for a baseball team, that's the guy you want as a starting quarterback. Not so much. I mean, if they can somehow work that out, I think he is a great fit. I think that's a confidence issue. I do. Uh. And if Chip can you know, simplify the game for him, Uh, and that's a lot of what his offense is is kind of you know, cutting that field in half. In terms of the reads, well, he never updates it, so that's good. He's not gonna have to learn new wrinkles because the same thing he was running three years ago, he's still going to try to run now. He's not evolving, So that be good. You don't have to worry about that, because I there was some I think he I think some some uh some forty Niners fanboy came after the both of us over the last couple of weeks over Twitter, like, oh, chip Kelly's in this, like it's proven offense, and Carlos I've seen you going back and forth with carl Stop stop like it's it's not so much Carlos Hyde, it's I don't have a lot of confidence in Chip Kelly. And I don't think that the light's gonna turn on he's gonna be like all of a sudden be an NFL coach. I think he was exposed, and I think the NFL defensive coordinators at first were kind of like, oh, like the first time that a team rolled out the Wildcats, unbelievable. What are we supposed to be doing with this and now nobody doesn't. It's a gimmick. It's a gadget type play, and I think Chip Kelly Kelly's is a gadget offense. Let's see I walk like it's gonna be proven this season, like when nobody catches up, or excuse me, when nobody, I mean, isn't it when everybody's caught up. My my thing with Chip Kelly though, is that I never had a problem with Chip Kelly the coach. It's Chip Kelly the GM that was a problem. I mean, when you get rid of God, it's amazing how ineffective your offense is when talent, when it doesn't have talent or good sex, amazing good segue. If Cap is the starting quarterback, who the hell does he throw the ball? Yeah, I mean that's the problem. I don't know. I mean I've seen those YouTube videos where guys just throwing up and like run back and catch up themselves. Is that he's pretty fast and that in the NFL, like Bruce Ellington, Quentin Patton, Tory Smith, I was going to be one of my my adapts with Mr Perfect and he when he was a famed w W E wrestler, of the early nineties. His vignette was how perfect he was. And one of the things he was in the Vikings practice facility. I forget who it was. It was like Steve Jordan or somebody like that. So he said he throws a hundred yard pass to himself, which is it's so stupid, and then he looks right into the camera says perfect. Perfect, And I feel like that's what Colin Kaepernick should do. Just throw up book, all right, go and catch it. Boom. I like it. Um, Yeah, I mean no, you're right, Gil, honestly, I mean I don't know who the nine is gonna throw out there too, you know, and it coul compress it during the drafting. Yeah, I think that they're gonna have to Um. Obviously they've missed the boat um in terms of free agency. But yeah, I mean you look around, there's not much they could still bring back. Kwan who

knows. Yeah, we'll see it's Treadwell. Look, Quan Treadwell's an interesting fit there, there's no question about it. I think they'll try to address in the second round. I would be surprised if they don't try to make some kind of move at some point to get Josh doxon, we shall see draft is gonna be great. Andre calledwell, says Amiabdula. Jim called will. What do I call him? Andre called well? I don't know why I called Andre called well? Uh, I just think about those eyes. No, Jim called well. PEG's Amiabdullah as quote most likely to improve? Agree, disagree? I think that that pregnant pause there? Sure? I mean sure, I mean there wasn't Ellipsey in the rundown. Let's why can't he get I mean, the one knock on him, or the biggest knock on him, was the fact that he kept putting the football man. But I mean, we've seen guys h really figure out how to curb that. I mean, go back to Tiki Barber, Who's the guy who early in his career with a huge fumble liability, and then after a couple of years he figured it out and then became a fantastic running back, especially fantasy y. So I mean, I don't see why never fumbled, right, that was the funny thing. So I don't see why Amirabdula can't start to make progress in that area. It's I would hired Tom Coughlin as a special consultant. You're a Arabdulah's fumbling consultant. So he just puts him in the doghouse then and he lives. That's when Tom Conflin did with a lot of guys. Yeah, but he taught Tiki Barber how to hold the football and he was very successful. He was one of those guys who had some of the best years of his career after the age of thing. I mean, is it is? This? Is it possible though, because amrable? I mean again, going back to his college days, even in Nebraska, he was extremely fumble prone. He got better as his career went on. He like, those numbers are skewed. People look at it and he lost like thirteen fumbles or whatever, and they're like, but he lost like six as a freshman and then like three in two and one like it, it dropped down significantly. Those numbers aren't exactly don't quote me on that, but it was like it was that kind of sliding skill. He got a lot better. But I mean, but again, yeah, it's not like the fumbles he lost in the NFL and season one. We're not It's not like, oh, hey, the guy just got a hat on it. No, he's just I mean, he was I don't even know what was happening out there. He was just dropping the rock like the whole season. Okay, I think they protected him pretty well, but but he how many of those are fumble lost? How many? How many times did he put it on the car? Thirty five? Okay? I think I think what could help him too is actually, like Race Jones Drew somebody that talks about this all the time too, is that he was a mayor, was in the worst committee last year because they giving them all the joy. Zack Senator was getting it early in the year, theoretic was getting it. Like I'm looking at his game logs, he only had more than ten carries one to three, four, five, six times. So what's Mojo saying that if he if he got a bunch of rhythm, If you're coming off the if you're coming in cold every time like you, of course you're not going to be as effective and you might be more likely to put it on the ground. So it'd be inter it'd be interesting to see what he can do with more touches. Of course, um and obviously the road is there this this year. Stephen Ridley, of course, though now as soon as we say this was meeting with the Lions earlier to this earlier. I'm just reporting facts. I mean, I love rank you and I we all loved me or last year I loved him coming out of college. I will probably you know, take some darts at him again late in drafts. But where does he go ADPs seven point oh six is that seventh round to fantasy football? Seventh round? You know that it's about right because last year he was he was he was a reach fifth rounder. So now people are kind of burned on him, kind of like when you go to that place get a bad pizza pie, You're like, I'm not going there again, but it may be awesome, but maybe, but then they sent you. I first, they sent you at Off Coupie. My first place pizza was not very good, and I could have written the thing off. It could have been like, no, I'm never going back. Forget this brand new Franchi somebody famous part Kutcher and like Lebron like part of Blaze. I don't know, I don't We're getting off the rails here. Listen that I'm making a point, like I could have walked away from Blaze Pizza. But you didn't, but I didn't know. And you know what, I'll be honest with you. I enjoy Blaze Pizza. Now you're better. I think it's good and it's a part of my life, and I think a mere dula could be just like that. Like sometimes, like listen, every we all have bad days. I don't want to judge it off one porch. I'll give you an opportunity. If enough people are speaking well of you, I'll give you a second Okay, So there you go. So I'm giving him a second chance. Seventh round. I'm sitting there, a mere dula is available. I'm drafting done in Shottown. The Bears. GM says Kevin White's a hundred percent healthy. His ADP right now in the ninth round. Uh do you like the price? Ninth round? Yeah? I love that. I like it a lot um. He's right there with d G B, Stefon Diggs, oh Man, Steve Smith. I don't know. I'm going by fantasy. I don't know where where the snipe point. And I think I'd much rather have d GP than Kevin Calvin Johnson nine point. That's amazing, that's awesome. People take him. Maybe we'll come back it's probably adjusting and dropping quickly. I had It's very fair, it's a great place. I mean, look, I I had him on a drafted him on a dynasty team last year. Obviously didn't get anything from him, But I'm looking forward to I'm I'm kind of curious to see what he offers, especially, you know, knowing that al Sean could use some help on the other side there in Chicago. Martell's Bennett. No, Martell's Beennett, now Zach Miller. Okay, the offer sheet matched by Josh Hill. Josh Hill, It

doesn't make that makes no sense. Um. I think I think Kevin White can be productive this year. Um, Kenny, I mean, I guess my question is what's his what's this guy ceiling? Right? Like? He is essentially a rookie. Rookie wide receivers historically have not done too well, although i'lbeit recently that's not been true. Um. I like the fact that there is no more Tellus Bennett, uh means more targets, especially around the red zone. I don't know. I mean, I think about what this guy could do in terms of a ceiling. I mean, maybe at most he gives you a thousand and six I'd say a thousand and eight. That's fine. That's about that's fine. He's like a twenty dollar bill you find in your pocket, but like, oh, I forgot it was there. That's that's what's gonna be great about him. In draft season, his people have like you are gonna be like, oh, he's basically a rookie and blah blah blah blah blah. But like, man, the upside is there, and he's got a true number one opposite him. He's got a capable quarterback who has had two successful Fantasy wide receivers before. I would love grabbing him in the ninth round. All right, there you go. The only thing I fear is that the Bears will be winning so many games that they'll be grinding the clock out at the end. I'm really going away from the passing game. That's that's your fear. That is my my biggest fear with him, that's that's not your I wish everybody listening at home could see the spark on Adam rang. I don't have a smart I don't Yes, it could literally happen. I mean could, thank you. It's about as likely as Jared Cook catching stops. Just just stop all right? Uh, we touched on it briefly here. Why do you the Bears made an offer to Josh Hill Titan in New Orleans for some unbeknownst reason. The Saints then match that the best. Why you're baffled by like every tight end time? What the Saints have no cap space whatsoever, and they're gonna match the and but the but the thing is they went and god, Kobe Fleaner, Look, James, somebody has to drive the Josh Hill hype train this Why shouldn't it be the Saints. I don't understand the move. It's probably what the move probably is is Kobe Fleaner insurance because they paid a bunch of money to Kobe Fleiner. But if they're like this, if Kobe Fleaner gets injured or he doesn't, you know, live up to his potential as he has the past four years, then we've got Josh Hill still who also hasn't left up his but hey, but hey, he's the guy we know. Now they've got to two horses in the race, well and they got three. They got that who he's not not he's going to be like a that helps No. One champion Midwe and then I gotta go back. I mean, isn't that where we said about Ben Watson? No, I mean, well he's still there, Ben Ben Watson's he's he went somewhere. They probably wanted to match his offer as well, but they couldn't. How stunned do you think the Bears were just really like, hey, we're gonna sign Josh that like that fun deal, right exactly? Like oh heait, you're gonna You're still

gonna eat that? Like alright, very cool? Uh, I didn't get it. Let's talk Matt Jones qu that Oh sure, the Washington says the head coach there, Gruten says he's gonna take a quote gamble on Matt Jones is a lead back. Yes, he said that. That's why they let um a very productive runner and Alfred Moore walk is because they have Matt Jones and they are using air quotes for very productive. No, that is what he said. I mean you look at his career, he's been he's been very productive there. Yeah, I like Alfred Morris a lot last year. He it's hard to say he was productive though, right. He's looking at his career, not speaking, which is also why I think he says it's a gamble with Matt Jones because they like his size, they like his speed. But he pulled a great Vanis Vanishing act after that one magical two game or whatever. So, uh, Chris Thompson's there, obviously take all the third down work. Well he did. Gruden did reference in that article though, that they like that Matt Jones can catch passes out of the backfield too. So I think Chris Thompson might be more of the the hurry up two minute offense kind of guy who does get in on some third downs. But I think they believe that Matt Jones could potentially be a three down back for him. I don't know, do you believe the coach speak Gil hard Because Chris Thompson got so much work last year, I would be shocked if they went away from him next year. Here's the thing he didn't get. I mean, he didn't get that much work in the grand scheme of things. The problem was it was such a revolving door there in the backfield that it made it hard to figure out who was going to get what wasn't Chris Thompson the most consistent of those three backs that stretch for a while Okay. I mean I do at least like the fact that they are proclaiming someone as the starter, Like, yeah, that's at least it is March. But it is not nice to hear. But at least that offers a little bit of clarity, is to what we're doing, because before, I mean last year, it was it literally was the shrug emoji, like, well, I don't know what I'm doing. It was the shug emoji come to life pretty much. But he was a rookie last year. Matt Jones. Yeah, I mean I don't understand why it's that big of a leap. I mean, they got somebody in there to get a little bit of experience, and now going into a second year, he's gonna be ready to go. Jones is going pretty late to right. Seventh round is shih, He's going, I'm sorry, keep looking at uh fantasy calculator. It's a sixth round, okay, seven little what's a little early. But I do I do like the thing. I like Jay Gruden's attitude. He's like Kyle McLoughlin and show Girls, and he's like, hey, what do you do in Vegas When we need a superstar? We gamble? That's my second. That's my second favorite line of that movie. Your second by Kyle. Now, the first one is is, uh, Liz Berkeley is over at the house. He's like, Oh, is this Christal round one? We're gonna be talking abouts? He said, I don't know like Christal, but I always

drink champagne. Like so stupid, What does that even mean? Why are you quoting show Girls? It's been on in rotation on the paid movie channels. Stop. I'm the biggest sucker because I what's wrong with I have Amazon Prime? This movie? That movie barbage? What's wrong with you? Carbage? Come on? I will be flipping through the channels and there's nothing on, and then you're just wanted to oh and then I there's nothing on, I'm gonna flip on show Girls. I would like something that's a terrible life. I would like somebody done worse. I would like somebody to do a rough cut, because they show different scenes of whatever that show is that they star in with Crystal Connors. But they're like, it's so like one scene there's like motorcycles, and then see what the whole thing? You have a super cut. She's a super cut of that whole the whole show. I think that would be amazing because that makes no sense. Alright, internets, do your stuff, so make it. So let's talk about I think are our best filmmakers. What do you even? What are you even talking about right now? Okay, look, uh, let's go to the first round. Hey, Jake Gruden is the one overall? Not it? No, what are you talk don't just don't don't ask him? Don't ask Let's be back, all right. Controversial picks at number one overall, not first round, not top five, one overall? We do with the first overall pick, we gamble. They cute for that very much, Adam Rank, Oh boy, um, we make that a drop? Can I make a case? Can't you imagine if I got the number one over the Show Girls DVD? Like, I'm just making a drop, don't worry, folks, and it was I'm psycho. Do you mind? I'm like two minutes away from turning off your mic putting you a podcast time out? Do you mind if we thank you? Make your point about David Johnson, I would like will probably be more obscene obscene than that movie we were just talking about. But anyways, go ahead, Oh wow, what a sell? Ahead? Thank you. I appreciate it. I'm looking forward to this. Look, can we I want to talk about Odell Beckham because look, I know that right now, where's O'Dell going. He's going somewhere right top four. I feel as if if I had the number one overall pick and I was being sensible, I really want to take Odell Beckham junior number one overall. Explain it. And it's because, like I get, Antonio Brown is right there, and Antonio Brown has a longer history of being a very productive player. Great, I get it. Odell Beckham Jr. What did he have last year? Fourteen? Let me look at this real quick. Fourteen fifty double digit touchdowns, fourteen fifty and thirteen touchdowns. And I remember people, and I remember people coming out and being like, oh, he's not gonna be, not gonna be anywhere is Close's good? It's where he was as a rookie. Ye, it was pretty much right, pretty much to say. Although I will say this, you know, mg R Guy Marcus Grant, what did you say you said in the preseason he is going to put up similar almost similar numbers to what he did as a rookie, but accepted be spread out over because like the point per game average would be lesser. Somebody would someone out there and be like guys falling off. You know, like he's fine. He did exactly what I thought he would. And thirteen touch You'll take that all day. You'll take if if fourteen fifty and double digit touch downs is this guy's floor. God, I'm telling the upside to me is just unbelievable. Could he push? Could he push eighteen hundred fifteen touchs? I think that's I think that's doable. Eli Manning never gets hurt, that's a question. That's a question mark, uh. For Ben Roethlisberger and Antonio Brown. We saw Antonio Brown struggle at times without Big Ben. Eli is always healthy. He and even if he's not, he's out there still slinging it. And I love the fact that he has tunnel vision as well. And that's gotta mean good things for for a guy like oh b J. Am I crazy for saying oh b J to me? Is I I think like a case could be made that he's the best safest fantasy football player overall. You're talking about a top four fantasy pick going number one overall. It's not that big elite, not that big for everything that you say, I mean it really. To me, I would take one of the top receivers, being Antonio Brown, ode Odell Beckham, June or Julio Jones DeAndre Hopkins. Those to me should be the first four guys off the board. And I don't think I think it basically comes down to your preference. I think you could talk yourself into any one of those guys, and O b J is a very great option. I prefer Antonio Brown, I think that without but would you have Julio Jones out of O. B J would be my number two, So you couldn't make a case for Julio number one. I mean I think you could make a kid you could. The only thing I would start looking at the quarterbacks. When you start getting that clue, like when you're trying to just to uh to choose between three guys who are very similar, you start going through the your progressions of like, oh, what what's your team structure? Like what's their schedule? Like what division do they play in? And then the quarterback has to be one of the things that you consider. And looking at those three options, I think that Matt Ryan would be the worst of those three quarterbacks. So I would want to go here's my counterpoint to that, because Jay is talking about could Odell Beckham get to eighteen hundred yards receiving in a season? Well, Julio has been there. That's true. That's a good point. Julio has done that. Did it last year? Eighteens almost nineteen hundred yards. You know, um, you would think that with that many yards he'd have more than eight touchdowns. But still, who's complaining about that? Um? So he's already done it. He's done it with Matt Ryan as his quarterback, So you know who's the thing he can't do? Ryan still his quarterback, Bryan. I will say this though, you were talking about upside James Beckham. Uh, last year, had Brown and Roethlisberger played all sixteen games together, this was his potential line A

hundred fifty nine catches yards and thirteen touchdowns. So the you're you're you're making the point that Antonio Brown actually has higher up there are more question marks. But how prolific Brown and Roethlisberger are together that I think that he's the he's the more. I mean, we're talking bold picks, but like, just as a counterpoint to your upside argument with Beam, which I totally understand Brown's upside, is through the roof. Especially in PPR, we threw a Gronk into the mix. What can anyone make a case to me that Gronk should be I can't right now, not with all the tight end moves that I well, I think that that has changed with before free agency and all these tight ends moving around that it was probably a little bit easier. But I guess the argument is he was twenty five points better than the next tight end. I mean that's a sizeable significant That's a sizeable gap. I mean there was you know, Gronk, what eight three point six fantasy points. Gary Barnage the next closest at one fifty eight point three. I mean that's missed a couple of games too. Um. But isn't that part of it though? Because he plays with a reckless of style that could, you know, leave him open to injuries. When you're talking about the number one overall selection, I want to go with the person or the player that I perceive eve is the safest option to me, it's Antonio Brown, followed by Odell Beckham Jr. Followed by Julio Jones I wasn't meaning to be smirch, but I'm like, when you're talking about guys that are that close. Remember last year and one of my fantasy drafts, I actually because I was at the I was at like the eight or nine hole, and Levan Bell kept falling. So I was looking and I knew the guy behind me with and I'm like, I just can't because the guy behind me, I know, is the It's the guy who is probably the smartest fantasy player in our league. And I'm like, I can't let you just walk away with Levyan Bell. Yeah, he was nice, I would and I go, I can't allow that. So I'm gonna take it because knowing the way our draft worked and everything, that he was gonna take Antonio Brown and I'm like praying, I'm like, don't take Julio Jones. And he went back and took a running back. And I took Julio Jones and ended up with him and was very happy with him and thought he was a great player. So I like those guys, but I like the safe options. I feel like, when you're drafting first overall, you want to make sure that's gonna hit your first round picks, not always gonna hit and ask anybody who took Eddie Lacey, right, But you want if your number one overall and your guy doesn't come through, that's the worst. You know. It's so funny too. Last year I was in the league where a guy to Julio he's from Atlanta. He took Julio Jones one overall and just got destroyed in the chat room, just god destroyed in the chat room. But man, you look at that first round. That might have been the best pick in the first round, could have been. There was a lot of disappointment in the first round

last year, my gosh, which is why I think, like you were saying, rank some some of those top wide receivers makes sense there because they there are less question marks then a running back, and running backs tend to get dinged up earlier. But speaking of and I know, well, I will say this because I know a lot of people will talk about Antonio Brown not being as effective without Ben Roethlis, who also has his own injury concerns. But I will say that Antonio Brown struggling came with Michael Vick because when they went with Landry Brown was good enough, Like he wasn't a superstar, like, obviously he's not gonna be as good as he would be without with with with Ben Roethlisberger in there, but with Landry it was a little bit more like, Okay, this is what would happen if he had if they went with a legitimate option. They didn't try the Michael Vick thing because that just didn't work. That's um. How about David Johnson number one? Who I know, I've been joking around about a bunch this offseat. You're not joking, I know, I'm not sure. It's like you want it, like when you try to say some some harsh truth to somebody, put it in the phrase of a joke, like no, I'm joking, so he can be like, I don't know, I'm just kidding and I know, but deep down you really think that David Johnson's the number one overall. So explain yourself. Well, here's the things with this guy, right, Like Bruce arians Uh has shown that he likes to go to one guy, which has been great. David Johnson is his guy going to the season A young dude, big explosive of I mean six, one, uh four, five forty Do you want me to go through his entire reps on the bench press a forty one and a half inch vert. He is an athletic monster, very nice combine um as we saw, really good at catching the ball in the backfield as well. I mean he is to me the most complete back in the NFL UH as of this second. Why would I not want that guy number one? Overall? Could any of his success headed? I mean, you talk about a guy who is a physical freak who benefited a little bit from not having to play a full season. He shows up, you know what, like your friends are out party in one night, they're at the bar. You know, you work till midnight. Everybody's you know, close to a blackout. You show up, your fresh as a daisy, You stand out to all the women out there, and you're there. You know you you come off very well. Okay, That's what David Johnson was able to do. He was able to show up halfway to of the season and just start reckoning dudes, guys who were you know at the back half of the season where you're you know, I'm starting to get a little bit a little bit more slow, little injured and everything like that. I think that worked out and and the one thing that I fear about David Johnson is again, when you're talking about the first overall pick, right, you want to make sure it's the most rock solid, and instead you're going with a guy who could be this season's version of C. J. Anderson for anybody, or like Eddie Lacy,

Like I was making a point for Eddie Lacy being the top running back last season, and a lot of it made sense. Physical, great offense, uh, great supporting cast, blah blah blah, it just falls apart, like the running back position to me is too volatible. And they they're bringing back Chris Johnson, so maybe they're gonna look at it like, hey, you know what, we might be a little bit more effective if we're able to rotate these backs in keep everybody fresh. Because maybe he thought that going with one guy over and over again hurt him a little bit in the playoffs. And if this is a team that has that has Super Bowl aspiration, they might say, I might want to we might want to adopt a different, different style kind of mix and match our backs. And Andre Ellington is still lurking as well. I get it, man, I get it. It's just to me, if this guy's upside if he can start approaching total yards with fourteen touchdowns at the running back again, at a position that is still there's still a dearth of talent, of good talent at the running back position. But you're now drafting a guy that you hope can reach a level that you feel is acceptable, whereas you're looking at guys like Antonio Brown, O b J and Julio Jones who have already reached that level and reached it consistently. So you're gonna escue those guys and go, like this guy might I you're doing the Kyle McLoughlin here, Like I said, Like I said, if I'm sensible, I'm gonna tell him alone. If I'm sensible, I'm taking j If I'm saying too much about that movie, right, I'm just trying to ignore it. It. I mean, it wasn't It wasn't enjoyable, not from an entertainment standpoint, but from a the unintentional comedy in that movie. If if Liz Berkeley would have just played it a little bit differently, I feel that, Okay, Gina Gershan has the ability to take roles like she was great in Face Off, like Fantastic, like she knows how to play in those type of movies, okay, And I think in this offense, I don't know know a for effort rank. All right, let's talk about somebody unexpected names that could sneak into the first round. I'll start with the first one off the top, because I brought this one up and I were discussing it back and forth in the news room yesterday. Lamar Miller right now, he's going about the middle of the second round. Oh five. But when you look at it, like I said, he's a guy. You know, we've all been waiting for him to reach his potential. He never gets the necessary touches yet the last two years he was the sixth highest scoring running back last year, the ninth high scoring running back the year before. When he gets fifteen plus touches, he is a monster. As have said in pass Games, and Bill O'Brien has a history in his time as the head coach of the Texans of feeding his number one back. They went out paid Lamar Miller a ton of money, like this is all setting up for him to have another dynamite like top ten, top ten campaign like and I think, but if you're sitting there, look, I was just gonna say, if I'm looking at if so, if I'm sitting there at the back end of the first round and those top wide receivers are all gone, like A D. Gurley and leve Bell are gone, I might I might jump on Miller at the back end of the first round. There. That's not a bad call, I mean because mostly because when you take a guy at with the eighth pick in the first round, you're not confident he's gonna come back to you know, so like and and looking at like you said, we we run out of those running backs real quick, So I look at taking him if I if I wait on him, he's probably gone and then like Freeman and somebody else has gone. So then I'm real question market running back. Whereas if I take him in the first round, I can get probably Dez A Rob A J. Green, one of those four guys in the second round there, and I like, I like that tandem a lot better than reaching on one of those wide receivers and then trying to you know, all four of those guys could be gone. If I take one and then Mr Miller and Dez Bryan. That's not a bad com That's not a bad combo at all because you figure the running backs you would be choosing between would be Lamar Miller, DeVante Freeman, Jamal Charles, Tommy Rawls. Those guys, yeah, I could see coming off major injury, I would yeah at that point. And you did you figure all the big name Uh, let's say everybody, DeAndre, those guys are gone, long gone. Maybe Gronkowski has gone too. I like it, I and honestly, I'm with you. I think um, even though he's been a disappointment in Miami, I feel like a lot of that has to do with playing with the Dolphins, who just are They're not a good franchise. And again the Browns with palm trees, the Browns with palm trees, and it's no and and it. But it does make sense fantasy wise because even though they've had some success, I think that Lamar Miller would have been better off with another team. I think Jarvis Landry would be better off with another team, maybe even Ryan Tannehill himself. But now that he's going to Houston and we've seen it, they've even had success last year with with some of their backup guys. Freddie Blue had some games where he was pretty good, and so you put a guy in there with Kalent and I think, one O way, I think that's about the spot where I would feel very confident and comfortable with going with Lamar Miller. You just mentioned it. Alan Robinson. Oh yeah, I find him to be so interesting. Um, if you have the like like I'm thinking, if you have the six pick in the draft and the first five picks were all of those stud wide receivers just gone, and you're at a rank and you're like, non, no, I'm not taking running back. Man. Alan Robinson is staring at you right in the face, and you know he's not coming back. Where where are you thinking? Like one oh six, That's what I'm saying. But man, I'm just saying that he's not coming back, dude, I mean I was thinking. I was thinking, I know, it's only a couple of spots, but sometimes in the first round, a couple of spots makes all that.

I'm thinking eight or nine, where you're looking at zero RB strategy, you're looking up, you're looking at Alan Robinson. Somewhere around eight, you come back. You can get Jordy Nelson, a J. Green, you know, maybe Ala Sean depending on possibly Daz still being there, you can get him second round, and then even then you can still come back third, fourth round. You're still looking at you know the c J Anderson's, uh you know who else would be Carlos High, Jonathan Stewart. So you can get yourself a couple of really good running or wide receivers upfront, come back and still have some decent running backs. That's what I'm saying. When you look at that list you mentioned, right, like Daz and all them right, like um is al like Alan Robinson's got to be more attractive, non da No? I like Allan Robinson. I like him a lot. Because then you're Snario where you're going one oh six, you gotta figure Brown Beckham Jones, Dad's has got to be gone to be a one oh six. Is that right? Because you're going Robinson one oh six that you're that's going to cause an Okay, let's say okay, let's say Gronkowski went fifth. Well, there's a lot of manage a lot of managers out there that won't take a tight end the first round period. They just won't do it. Um like for me, Like if I'm if I'm at one oh six, I'm not even considering Gronk. I mean, I'm not considering them. I'd rather I'd rather take a swing and a miss on somebody that then take a tight end in the first round. I'm not, I'm just not. I'm just I'm one of those guys. And I know there's a lot of managers that feel the same. But at one oh six, I'm telling you, like, maybe maybe the fifth pick is is a p or girly or uh or left bell. And if you have the fifth pick and you've got left bell, one of those guys, you're you're a static. Okay, so now one of those studs is gone, but you really want to embrace the zero RB strategy. Hey, Robert, six, is I still think you're taking I think I think you're taking I think you flip flop those you take das and then you get a rob on the on the return if you're still there, or you let Marcus take a rob at one on nine. There you go. All right, let's go back up one guy. Let's talk about him. We've mentioned I don't want to talk about him because you're ruining the chance for me to just you know, for him to look Eddie lacy Man My whole plan was that the people were going to remember him as being shape and then he remember playoff touchdown where like he ran like fifty yards and should have scored, but he got too tired. Like I wanted him to fall to the third round and I can just like scoop him up and be happy. But now there's pictures of him old smelt and hanging out with Tony Horton, and now we're talking about him maybe being a surprise. First, you're you're ruining everything. Man, it's gonna happen. It is gonna happen. Though he plays for one of the premier for enchrises in the NFL. His first two years in the league he finished sixth and fantasy scoring. There you go each year, um and

uh you know again, one of the most prolific offenses in the NFL. He there's been so there's already been so many stories about him looking skinny, and it's been like a month exactly. That's what I'm saying, Like, what's gonna happen when it's July, Man, that's it and he's cut, Then we're gonna get shirtless pictures of him like Tebow running through there. He's gonna be shredded. Listen, No, no, it could go the other way. So many people go, oh, I see and everything like look at me, I'm ripped, and all of a sudden, you know, you go back to the same habits. You go out Taco bell. People are sorry, like you know what, China food, China, you know, throw it out from Yager bombs and you're like, yeah, what are you gonna donna drive through Del Taco. The thing is, Eddie Lacey has a significant amount of money on the line for this year, but that's what he's at the end of his Rockey contract. I think I think this, PI know, he's it's like for this arrative to happen like months from now, but already there's fans bumping into Eddie Laces and he's he's looking cut. Uh Fox, I think it was Fox Sports. Credit to them actually did a gift of They had a straight on shot of Eddie Lacey from the season and then they like kind of time lapsed it into that photo of him with the fan recently, and you can see there was a notable noticeable difference. Right But during the season, it was all about pad level. Remember that it wasn't about it was about the pad level according to Right, No, it was not. He was he was too big. Um, I think Eddie Lacy's gonna sneak into the first round again. Man again, He's like, I was thin. I was thinking about this, as was looking at looking at this, and we were and you guys were finishing up the bold one on one picture predictions. I was like, Man, if that run on wide receiver's happens and I'm sitting at the back end of the first round like actual last pick, I could probably see myself taking Lamar Miller and Eddie Lacey and then loading up on whiteouts after that. I don't coming back around and getting like an Adleman and Landry and you know call a Golden Tate or something like that. No, well, depending on who's there, Lamar Miller, Eddie Lacy, that doesn't get you riled up. There's a lot of pers are going to be so bad. And then all of a sudden, Eddie Lacy, he goes back to hometown buffet on the rag. Lamar Miller becomes the disappointment were we all knew. He was like, how did I buy into this? Like I should have known better. Bill O brought like you hate Bill O'Brien. Now it's too risky. It's just like, this is what it is. It's like what taking back to back wide receivers was a couple of years ago at the talent was like, oh, you're never gonna have any running back. There plenty of running backs, but it's not like I can I could, I could scoop up Doug Baldwin or Michael Floyd. Like, there are plenty of high enough upside guys that I could grab at wide receiver to make it work. If I've got a huge advantage of running back, I've got to probably top ten running backs. Imagine if I mean, that's what I'm saying. Imagine if it holds up, That's what I'm saying. Imagine if it holds up and you've got, you know, a top five and a top ten guy at the running back position. You're telling me, you know again and again, drafting is about is about finding value at every single pick, right that really, I mean, I feel if you're gonna go with the running back, I do like what Alex is saying, if you're gonna go with the running back in the first round, you should double down in the second round and go running back running back, and then hope to God you can start filling in your wide receivers that way, because it to me, it's the the wishy washiness of like I'm gonna go with the receiver and a running back that always ends up not working and always like oh they both suck, and you're like, what am I gonna do? You get stuck with a bunch of curtains everywhere, too many mid carters, like like you just I that would be my thing? Is that whatever position you end up drafting in the first round, unless it's obviously you got the tight end, you don't want to go tight end tight end. I don't know, I said, I don't feel like I have to explain it, but I've spent enough time on Twitter to I know I have to explain it. Yeah, I get it. I I dig it. Like, what if um, under your under your circumstance, under your situation, there you went with those two guys, could it could you see it being conceivable you can end up with the Mari Cooper, Oh yeah, Mike Evans, maybe Mike Mari Cooper and Brandon Cooks, maybe Sammy Watkins. Falls. A lot of people for whatever reason, and it and it stuns me, Like people aren't into Sammy Watkins, almost to the point where you're like, maybe I will wait on wide receiver because like there's a lot of dudes and people are just like yeah, whatever, Like they're just shrugging off a Marie Cooper. I'm like, did you not see? Like, Okay, forget what O'Dell Beckham Jr. Did. Like if you can just take that out of your mind and look at what a Marie Cooper did as a rookie, be like that's pretty good. That's the guy who's gonna be really good, and this team is gonna be better. The Broncos probably will take a step back a little bit because they're losing dudes left and right. The Chargers are gonna be a night mayor. The Chiefs are having injury problems already. I'm like, dude, this I think the Raiders will end up winning. So you bring up you bring up a good point. Harmon and I were talking about on Sunday we went to a local watering hole and uh hed a couple. We were walking back and he was gonna be on the podcast. No, Uh we were, he were walking back and he was gonna be on a podcast, and he was like, they wanted me to know who are the list my top ten wide receivers in the NFL. So he and I would be back and forth and figured out the top ten pretty easily. But then we were like, man, you know what's interesting is that that top that elite of the wide receivers is pretty tight. But then there's this

huge range of really good guys of like from eleven to thirty ish where there's where that is just a you know you you shuffle them around however you want, Like you said, the Brandon Cooks and Sammy Watkins and all these other guys. So that's why if you do end up waiting on wide receiver, waiting wide receiver the first maybe two rounds, load up on those guys afterwards and just see who hits this year. Gotta yeah, you gotta like it. You gotta start stockpiling that other because you figure your first two guys or your guys that's it, and then stockpiling because if you ever watch, I know people can follow our NFL Fantasy live teams and like that, that's usually what I do, and I go with like whatever whatever position position, then like I'm drafting nine guys at the position I neglected, and then trying to figure it out then stream a quarterback, and I guess it hasn't worked out the last two years. Maybe I said, stop there, go back to what you've got into the final four every single time though, Right, that's true. I won three out of four, and then I've had back to back final fours. It's pretty good. It's not. That's a really good run. And it's a matter of fact, if if the rules weren't changed at the last moment, if our teams weren't magically receded in the playoffs, we would have been in the finals. So odd. And then I didn't pay attention because I didn't want to know if I would have won. He was I was so mad. Plus I dropped all my guys to go danger us on front. That was a fun final, you guys said, I said, we scratched the last off this list because I don't thin anybody's ta name in the first run. Anyway. Yeah, let's let's daff in and get out of here. Let's do it destite, all right, Daily DAP time, Adam, K what you got, I'm gonna give a daily dap to Chris Beard, the new head coach at the University of Lost, University of Vatta, Las Vegas, your basketball coach. Uh, they missed out on McK cronin, which was probably a great thing. I was kind of stunned they're going after the Cincinnati had, like, you got three million to burn and this is the guy that you choose. But I think this Cris Bird guy, Listen, he could be a little I think he's got a little bit of that Andy Enfield into him, Like, hey, it's one year but has worked out exactly like he he parleyed one great year into a pretty uh pretty consistent success at USC. So I like that DAPs to Shane McMahon. Oh, he opened up Monday Night Row, Chanel mac He opened up Monday Night Raw with a jump from the ring post to the announcers table. And I know a lot of people are like, what does this forty six year old guy gonna dude Like, Look, nobody took bigger bumps than Shane McMahon during his heyday, and I'm talking about the Hardies and all those guys. This guy took massive bumps. And I think that his Hell on a Cell match with the Undertaker is gonna be great. I think it's WrestleMania is gonna end up being better than a lot of people are anticipating. Like to give some daily DAPs to Rodney Hood thirty points on my bench in my NBA basketball league I started, Julius Randall, don't feel great about that. Uh DAPs to Freddie Prince Jr. I made a chemical brother no fat boy slim joke to him on Twitter that he liked. I thought, either he's gonna block me forever, he's gonna like and he liked it. So I go props to him. Uh dapts to Matt Harvey because he would be great to have on a road trip because he never wants to pull over to pe Um. That's great. That's exactly who want to. Don't want to be pulling over in prim being like, gosh, we gotta come on, we're almost there, but nope. So I appreciate that guy. And finally, I will say, I'm not gonna give any spoilers and I'm not gonna do anything. I like Man versus Superman. If you didn't like it, I'm sorry that you were disappointed, but I enjoyed it. My wife, who's not a huge comic book. NERD also was able to sit back and enjoy it, Solf. Okay, there you go. It was well done and I really believe and I know a lot of people hated, like, hey, we're looking forward to the future. There were a lot of things and if you need me to point them out to you, there were a lot of things that were really cool that really set up a lot of the things that we're going on. And I can make sense of anything. If you have any criticism of it, it's probably better to go to my public Facebook profile page where I could explain it to you in depth. But I I will, I will, I will explain what happened. There were a few critiques that I had of it. Things I would have done differently, Okay, I will say I would have fired Jamie Eisenberg during the middle of it. It was it was j J. But sorry, you're fired. So you were so bad that your cousin at CBS Sports Line is it was was like what Jamieenberg? It was? It wasn't it was. It was an Eric Stolt's and back to the future type thing where like great actor, really like him. I don't think you're quite pulling off what really needs to happen here. But whatever, I overall enjoyed it. That's it. MG, my guy marks grat Uh. First off, I wanna daily dapt. One of my new favorite Instagram accounts called Miserable Men. It's Miserable underscore Men, and basically it is shots of guys who have been dragged to the mall and are just sitting sad and depressed. Some of them are staring at their phones. Others are just flat out sleeping in chairs. Sleeping and chairs. That's an old man move. Yeah, I mean but this there are some younger men who were caught napping two in chairs. I mean literally, it is men of all ages, ethnicities. I mean there is a guy, you know, dressed in kind of Middle Eastern guard with a turban and he's just sitting dejected lee on a stool here. I mean, it's it's everybody. It's hard to have good posture at the mall. It really is. It really is. I used to call like, I would go, you know, with an old girlfriend every now and then to the mall and she would go to shop at Express and I would I would have a baby. I would say, I'm gonna be in the men's section, which was just the couch near the

front of the bat That was what I called the men's department bad like my wife and I would be the reverse. I detest them all. It's it's gobs of people walking without purpose and most of them are in my way. Um also a sort of I don't know if this counts as the DAP, but I saw this morning Roscoe's is filing bankruptcy. What No, that's is that a true story? According to Kate l a true story, Roscoe's Chicken in Waffles has filed for bankruptcy. Um, we gotta do something, you know, like this can't just go down. This cannot stand. This aggression will not stand man. Um, it just we just can't mean. That's the which, you know, there's the crazy part. So I was there a couple of weeks ago. My girlfriend I were there, some friends were in town. They love Roscoe As we went there and like they have like this little video board that has like random stats about which Roscoes you go to. Though I got to the Pico and Lebreo one because it's kind of closest to where I am. Um, and this this it's lit up signs and did they sell something and I'm gonna completely blow it. But it was like three million waffles or something like that in a year that they sell to which my girlfriend was seen shocked and I was like, really, because they're gonna sell seven at this table, like right here, right now, right now. The seven never surprise me at all. But yeah, we have to band together and make sure that that Roscoe's something's gotta happen. Something, something's gotta give there. That's that's silly. Look Obama eight there. Maybe he can come back and eat there again, right and and help it out. Are you been there? Yeah? Of course, of course, there you go. Boom. I don't think I've taken harm in there yet, so we gotta go. He probably did. He the number one question too, when you take a new person, like why chicken and waffles? Why not? It's so good? You just put just put a finger on their lips and just said, don't ask questions. Alex scale Hard, what's up? Right? Did you need to make? Do you? I feel like the waffle with whether it's a hamburger or whatever, is now taken over like a lot of menus and a lot of these gas was the pretzel that's so waffle and now like true that Roscoe's is kind of like, man, you're not so special. Now everybody's doing it, and I feel bad for them because then you it's always the innovators that get the short end of the stick, and then the Brucks Cafe or whatever ends up reaping all the money for these guys. Brilliant idea. Ah, that's a good place too though. That is a good place. Yeah, that's it's a good place. They got one of those in down HB. Yeah, that's very good. What you got a couple of things as well. It is a draft season, so Daily adapt to Danny Jermia, Bucky Brooks and then moved the Sticks podcast. If you're the fan of the draft and want to learn more and get like this, they're so good. They're so good funds of experience. They've watched all these guys, like give him a follow, give it a listen, like you will definitely learn something and not

regret spending the time on it. Uh. And also Daily adapt to Uh Tom k It's his Rainbow six Siege. I had a college buddy who was like, you guys gotta get this game and play it with me. I was like, I don't want to spend money on this, And then he sent us a link the other weekend it was on sale for like fifty percent off, so I was like, uh so it's not like twenty seven bucks. I was like, all right, so now you're in you know its Harmon always said if it was crazy, So I was like, I was like a final pick it up and it's fun. It's not your traditional like crazy shooter like Halo. You No, it's super tactical and much more slow and takes a lot of coordination and you'll get your butt who up the first few times playing it. But there's a lot of strategy involved in a lot of cool stuff. So I was playing it with him a little bit, and I'm like, all right, I'm I'm intrigued. Harmon's in it. He doesn't really game. Harmon doesn't do anything. He just sits on Twitter all the time. He's on Twitter getting crying. Jordan's getting crying. Jordan's about that charting Wide Receiver's life, good stuff, Daily Dead. I got a bunched this week. I don't know why. Mark manson dot net. If you haven't been, you need to go. He basically writes like I don't know, like inspirational stories, motivational stories and stuff um in particular, and I'll post it to my Twitter. But he's got this one. He's got this one. Take man, it's it's great. It is great. It's it's inspirational, motivational type writing, but not safe for work language. Got it? It gets you man Mark with a K mark with the k mark manson dot net and one of his most popular works is uh an article called the Subtle Art of Not Giving an f Alright, go look for it. I'll put it on my Twitter. Uh. If you're listening to the podcast, you can find on my Twitter. But it is a great read, a great read. I will give daily depths to Buddy Healed from Oklahoma. The dude was making it rain. Is it just me or does Buddy Healed sound like he was one of the other teammates and Hoosiers. That's very true, That's very true. But Buddy Healed man, Oh my gosh, he was going knots against Oregon. It was awesome to see that. Um inspired by Kobe. Really, I hope he was sitting there courtside? Oh was he? Yeah? Do you not watch the game? Um? I did? I was I dvrt to be honest with you. So I when I saw cob probably when we're fast forwarding, all right, Um, I will give to un depths un depths to myself for googling who is Kaylani and who is young Metro I have. I was like, what is going on here? You're kind of losing their Uh yeah, I just lost thirty minutes of my life. I regretted it immediately. Um and undepth to coach K because Coach K bro like, worry about your own damn players. I hate that worry about your own damn players. And do you notice he always waits until the cameras on him to have that long conversation with whether it's good or bad? And I almost I was about to tweet out like it's always so classy the way that coach K waits for the camera to be on him, didn't you. I'm pretty sure I drink a lot during the tournament. I probably do, but dapth to him, Man, that's not cool about your exactly what a horrible thing to do. What if Rick Pattino had pulled aside Christian Lightner after ninety two and been like, hey man, you really shouldn't be stopping on dude's chest. And I'm gonna take away from your moment and that even though you're having a great breakthrough right here, I'm gonna sit here and lecture you, like and the Oregon Player did an amazing job of it was so great. He was so gracious about it. And Coach K was the exact opposite, the exact opposite. Not cool, uh andyways, I think that's it for our show, right, probably about it all right, So there you go.
