Introduction what's up friends and welcome into fantasy pros the fantasy football podcast and boy do we have a special episode for you today I'm Chris Welsh and I have got the gang this is the Gang

the whole shebang here and Justin kind of a big deal you know people know you as far as the pitching side goes uh we were able to meet earlier this year but what people might not know is that you are hardcore in the fantasy football streets best ball DFS and in the drafts very excited to have you here my friend yeah I'd like to think I'm a better um fantasy football player than baseball player sometimes I take a lot of pride in it yeah I would think a lot of people hope that's not the case though I appreciate you saying that but I would hope a lot of people are like no he's kind of an ace striking out 10 these two guys already know I do I spend a lot of time on the basball streets I'm putting a lot of hours into it 100% I I think I heard you do a show the other day and you had said I can't go to sleep unless I've done a draft so if people really want to know where Justin is on this he's not just a pitcher this is a hardcore drafter who and we're going to talk about some of the shares that you got going on Drew this is our first time getting to do a podcast I'm very excited to be hanging with you uh one of the hardcore guys in the streets what's up man uh what's up man thank you guys for having me appreciate being here big fan have been following for a long time so thank you very much Drew is not gonna Drew is not going to sit here and toot his own horn but Drew is one of these sharpest DFS players out there in the freaking space that man has made more money than I probably made in my entire lifetime off of DFS he won't tout himself but I will doesn't matter the sport either yep yep well that third voice yeah yeah that third voice Derek Brown so glad you're here interesting that you're on this episode because I would just like to point out that Brandon auk has signed a 4year $20 million deal I would also like to point out yes you know what leave because I have been the most vocal person on the planet that Brandon iuk was not being traded and me and de blow to blow blow to blow so I'm going to stop sit down for me sit down for me here for a second I'm GNA stop talking because Debo I'm going to give you the next 60 seconds for an opportunity to talk about what a great signing this is and maybe how smart someone that you are a co-worker with is H yes well you're pretty I'm ugly you're smart I'm dumb what how does the rest of that quote and saying go no man but look yeah really like the 49ers were smart to keep iuk in house with Piera missing all the time in Camp and look just pay the freaking guy man like you know he's one of the best wide receivers in the freaking League pay him I'm glad GL it's just done I'm glad it's done before week one none of these hold outs no fins nothing like that so yes well I sorry I'm sorry to have doubted thee and your infinite 49ers Homer wisdom thank you thank you very much Justin yes Debra you I saw you uh retweeted or sub tweeted or something one the shefer Tweet about I he was kind of talking about the wording and stuff you want to elaborate on that a little bit please great question great great question from Justin Let's uh let's elaborate I was not a fan of that shefter tweet um really just how they the tone in it um it was kind of like uh and I forget it off the top of my head but basically this is the contract that he got offered to the beginning so all the B basically the way it was framed it was like everything that auk did in the off season the hold out all that kind of stuff this was the original contract so it's kind of like oh the 49ers one I wasn't a huge fan of that but look chefy's a tall man he could tweet what he wants to tweet but for me I'm I'm I wasn't a big fan of it and for me players of our owners every single day of the week twice on Sunday get your back get paid these billionaire dudes make tons of money pay the players that give you your billions that's it rant over and I I agree with you by the way I think that was Sher doing a service to 49er management but at the end of the day what was probably missed in that tweet and that entire thing is yes he got the entire contract that they were also offering but he probably got5 to10 million more guaranteed in that first year and over guaranteed money so it was kind of displaced a little bit but that wasn't the point of this this was that I'm like super right and you were absolutely wrong and that was like the main tring focus I mean I came and sat back down for that part there's just no harm in recovering it just to make sure make sure everybody cryst for everybody yeah exactly uh I'm very excited about this we have a 12 team PPR mock that we're going to be doing today obviously we've got Drew we've got Justin we got the crew here we might even put little Stakes on it at the end uh

Drew and steel coming up here that'll be a great one like this is going to be it's time to get into this mock draft on the Mock Draft simulator looking over at this bad boy I am drafting in the number one spot let's see we have got a bunch of our Discord members fantasypros.com chat if you want to get on the Discord that's how we filled it this sucker filled up in like a minute we got hudat at two Messer Grim at three trust Venom at four Captain Neo at five we got uh devier at six Dereck Brown is at seven and Justin is a mad man had to take the spot right after sniping ability it's gonna be brutal uh we got Justin at eight kest at nine Blake at 10 JC at 11 and fantasy Guru Drew on the wheel at 12 gentlemen are you ready to Kickstart these mock draft engines can't let's go all right let's go we're going to kick this draft off resume it I got the number one pick we're not going to make it hard we're not going to make it hard ladies and gentlemen we're going with Christian mcaffrey easy money it's always the number one pick for me baby uh moving through we are I for I always forget we're not using the actual we're not using the actual like robot so it just goes boom boom boom but I'm going to go with Christian mcaffrey here Debo what are you looking to do as your pick is going to come up you got kind of a prime spot at seven where RBS can drop there's going to probably be a premium wide receiver so what are you looking to do with that one spot I was double checking the stps order again just to make sure yes steel and Drew are behind me so I Round 1 can talk the table um yeah but yes so I I wanted to to go with the 107 in this one because it puts me within range for one of Bree Orban or Justin Jefferson and I've been very very loud since the injury to JJ McCarthy I am not fading Justin Jefferson I think he legit can get 190 to 200 targets and anybody I think that's that's crazy look back to last year when in the full games he played he was on Pace for 193 targets so that's at least the the the short shelf of guys that I'm looking here so hoping to get one of them that's one of my favorites too I'm I'm buying any of those dips that I've had on Justin Jefferson I got him in I've gotten him in a couple spots I got him in the flex League I've had a couple industry spots on him CD lamb Jamar Chase 23 Justin it's a little bit difficult because you got Debo in front of you but he's talking about Justin Jefferson is there any type of pivot or what are you looking or hoping to do with the first round pick so I picked this spot he he went middle of the round and middle of the round for me in the first round is kind of the ideal spot I wanted in all my drafts this year that five to eight range you're kind of able to not you don't have the pick it the necessar like Tyreek Hills the Chris mcaffrey CD Lambs but you kind of get a top tier player that falls to you and you're able to get a turnaround pick sooner than those guys so that's kind of what like about it and uh obviously picked it because I get to snipe ebra and that's it's a beautiful thing one of the things I really like about it too I was talking with Bogman about this and i' I've had a lot of placement on this I feel like you don't get too far gone from runs if if if and obviously you don't want to like Chase any runs but you know if the tight ends start to go or the quarterbacks start to go or and you want to be involved in that you're not too far away from any of the crazy runs so I kind of agree with you on that I've had somewhere between like six and nine I feel like in most drafts and that's kind of kept me in it Tyreek Hill goes number four Debo two two spots away we just had a monra St Brown so you are either Jefferson or are you gonna avoid one of these running backs n i mean it it's really one of the running backs I mean if bejon beon and Justin Jefferson are the two guys that's the decision I'm hoping I'm ah see DVR is smart man I knew it love this though I this I love this well you're gonna get yeah you're going to get the other guy that I don't get and of course I'm going to go with my rb1 this is exactly what I wanted this is ex I'm gonna go bejan because he's my rb1 right now um so I think you know it's a clear pick right now but uh shout out to DVR one of the most tapped in Subs that we got yeah steel taking Bree baby you love to see it and and yeah and still you got to be ecstatic about B Bree at 8 is actually pretty stupid so that like gets you into line to like a pretty great construction and this is full PPR as we mentioned before so Bree is a monster right it's un that's exactly what I was just saying about having those middle range picks you kind of just get whatever Falls to you and you're able to build from there so like say bejon and Bree would have been gone and it would have been Jefferson and a monra that me and dbra would have been picking from I'm still psyched about that I'm able to like say get running back with one of my next two picks and another stud receiver or vice versa so that's why I like the middle of the round so much I love it drew you're up you got the wheel you got two picks here what are you looking at doing on the wheel yeah so I picked the 12 hole purposely because I've done 140 drafts this off season and the 12 hole has been my least favorite 140 best BS right uh and 12 has been my least favorite I think for me it's pretty clear I want a running back and I want a receiver I'm GNA go with Gibbs and Harrison I think both of them are just two amazing values at the end of the first round you get that that combo of running back receiver to your point you don't have to avoid a run of running backs and you don't get Round 2 screwed over by not getting your guy I you know I'm going for the running back and receiver combo and hoping I can do something similar on the on the three and four turn let let me let me ask you this where do you think the line differs at all from best ball to like a standard 12 team PPR like we're doing a lot this is the most important draft weekend that everybody's dealing with and I just did a show on in this league where we were doing kind of best ball versus uh actual leagues where do you think the line might differ specifically with a guy like Marvin Harrison going in because I think Marvin Harrison feels like this dramatically awesome uh best ball pick do you think there's any type of difference at all in like a standard formatted League yeah look the biggest thing between best ball and season long is that stacking ability in bball you want to make sure that you have a quarterback and a two receiver combo because you want week 17 to be to be the win all and all Beall right in season long you want that consistency you want to win every single week and I do think that Gibbs and especially Marvin Harrison they're not going to waste him right they are going to utilize him I'm more excited about the Cardinals this year than I have been in the past they will use him and use him to his full potential uh if if we could use the analogy not to be too corny with it but as Justin is a starting pitcher I think we might have got our first K and by strikeout I mean snipe situation so if we can even maybe get the graphic there I think uh Justin you might have got your first strike out on Debo you want to sit tell everybody who you took yeah I was uh I was actually surprised puka just kind of fell to me there and I was gonna ask I'm gonna pivot this to Drew what was it what what went into your decision in taking Marvin Harrison over puka yeah puka has been on my do not draft list not that I I like him where you got him I am still a believer in Cooper cup I still a believer in that connection and I believe that Cooper cup is still the onea over there okay okay I love that uh by the way the picks leading up to it we had Drake London Jonathan Taylor jayen Wadd Justin got puka Debo you went with alve so uh and then also the last couple pick we had Pitman Adams etan and aan I'm one pick away uh how painful was that strike that hurt and I I I switched screens real fast to go from the draft wizard to to to see Justin's face as he made the pick and I saw him grinning ear to ear and I was like a he's gonna do it I know KN I knew yeah you knew exactly where my head was you knew exactly where I was going so I mean I look at that point in the second round if PUK would have been there it's a smash I mean the guys that I'm kind of looking at at that point is kind of Drake London puka Chris alve if they fall there and I still like alve I mean like look Justin and I are are suffering Saints fans but I still think that Chris alve is going to get fed man all we need is Derek Carr to just be reasonably decent and I think it's a better offensive system so it won't surprise me I know consensus kind of has a l as a wide receiver one I'm with that I think that he gets 160 170 Targets this year and as long as the usage it's not just Derek are either checking it down or going YOLO ball if we get some Round 3 intermediate stuff I think that's where a we could see his numbers really perk up this year so again we had after that pick like I said Pitman Adams etn aan Derrick Henry right before me and that was definitely a little bit of a snipe I decided to go with the Dual wide receiver uh spot and I went with Cooper Cup who I have definitely as this period of time over the last couple weeks has gone on I have sold myself back into the massive Target there I've seen some great arguments online I just want to point out one of which was like this battle of yeah well look at all these underperforming underlining stats puka has taken over versus yes all of those were underlining and bad because he was hurt and he never recovered so which which line are you going to fall on and I'm G to fall back on the side of Cooper cup in the injuries taking away that massive production because he has the ability to be easily a top five wide receiver if not the number on so at this spot on a wheel taking Christian mcaffrey Cooper cup is a smash for me and I took Brandon auk because Brandon iuk we know exactly where his home is top 12 wide receiver with the San Francisco 49ers Drew you signing off on the Cooper cup love there oh absolutely I think to be able to get him there you're in a great position to your point there if you end the season and Cooper cup is wide receiver one is anyone really all that surprised I mean sure we got a little surprises But ultimately right everyone understands it so to be able to get that at pick 24 uh you know props to you yeah it's an ideal situation in like a PPR um format Debo went right after Nico Collins Josh Allen Pacho leor right in front of Derek Brown dbo you're up want to talk us through the knowledge on what you're gonna do here yeah uh I mean really it's it's a few different wide receivers uh Nico is on my short list um right now I'm kind of thinking between Devon Smith but I think I'm going to take the upside shot on DK meaf I'd love the Seattle offense this year I think Ryan grub is going to do all kinds of smart things we're already seeing them utilized play action and motion in the preseason and you know as well as I do boys like teams are not going to fully show their hand in the preseason we're already seeing motion and stuff like that in the preseason what are we going to see in the regular season so I think DK meaf he's been a we know what the floor is he's been a wide receiver too the last few seasons I think we get back to the ceiling aspect when I'm I'm old enough to remember when he was wide receiver 10 in fantasy points per game a few years ago I think we get that back for meaf this year and he's a wide receiver one it's possible well uh Justin took older DK metf more established DK metf his name is Mike Evans and you got the touchdown Hawk Mike Evans I GNA be honest with you I kind of thought you might were gonna go a little different direction we'll see when we come back with it Justin but talk us through Mike Evans yeah and I was choosing I was going to choose between Mike Evans DK metf Devonte Smith uh I'm not too overly excited about the running backs that I was looking at in that section um and all the mocks I would say it's been the same way I us once I've already had one running back in this section I usually wait try to load up at receiver and yeah I love Mike Evans I mean he's done it year after year after year um he's Baker's number one target Baker feeds him I love that pick there uh we follow that up with Malik Neighbors which is very disappointing that he went Kiren Williams that's a very fascinating One the Fall to the third round and DJ Moore I do want to talk about Kiren Williams here in a second but uh Drew you're up on the wheel so what are we looking at yeah you know I'm a little disappointed neighbors was was going to make it back to you I was grabbing him here and now I'm I'm going back and forth with if I want to go with the Philly stack here of Devonta Smith and and Jaylen herds I'm gonna go I'm gonna go Smith but I'm gonna go something that's maybe a little controversial here not because of where he gets drafted but because I know Round 4 Justin and Debo are not big fans of him this year Travis kelse still for me my tight end one look that connection between momes that that offense is is going to be better this year Mahomes is going to be gunslinging left and right and Travis Kelce is still the guy is he going to play for another five plus years absolutely not but Travis Kelce is still the guy the swifties agree with I do like that pick that's yeah and I think that's uh I think that's a definite sneaky one uh real quick before we continue on with the draft taking a small little break here we had the appetizer last week my friends now it is time to Feast college football is back at so much so we literally have college football

yours all right gentlemen getting back into this draft kicking this back off oh I love having all the control on this draft uh I like I I want to get to the Kiren Williams thing but one of the the funny things of uh Drew you taking Travis Kelce is it's no secret around the streets the steel streets that Mr Justin steel loves himself some Trey McBride and we're in Trey McBride not my pick yet don't talk about it yet it's not they can't hear us can't hear us go ahead and just announce you're sniping me again that's why I said it because no one can hear you and you get to go in front of Debo I thought you might actually go with uh with him in the last round is that where we're going here yes I knew if he gets if he gets to me here I'm I'm taking him and and to kind of feed off of what Drew was saying this is my tight end one this year this is this is the guy that you know last year everybody was taking Travis Kelce in round one round two right this is the guy that we're gonna be doing that with next year I believe like th I believe he's going to have that kind of year this year I agree and uh he just fell to you I I I had a tension there I'm going to be honest with you that he that Justin was saying all that and then I could just feel the snipe coming and we all were just going to be like just explode if that happened but Justin will you well real quick will you tell us because I heard you say this on another show will you tell people what your share percentage on Trey McBride is looking like this season yeah on in best ball it's north of 40% now and then right behind it is leaport at like 30 something percent and a lot of them are like together so like in basball I'm not scared of like having one of them as my tight end tight end one of them in my Flex also the week 17 correlations both of them are in Smash spots week 17 for when you know the big money's decided so I love both of them especially in both this year so high and tight end has been important to you is that something that you and Drew did you guys both kind of because you guys have both taken highend tight ends has that been an important factor for really any type of format you want to make sure you're maybe in the top six or I don't know if you want to dip into the Evan Ingram range but you want to get one of those top guys that's funny yeah I do not want to leave a draft without a top seven to eight tight end depending on where you have Ingram Ingram for me is somebody who has very very high potential I actually wouldn't be surprised if he's a top three tight end at the end of this year maybe you need a little bit of injuries to happen for for that to do but we saw games last year where Evan Ingram was in double digit Targets in a single game preseason doesn't really matter he scored two touchdowns a couple couple weeks ago in preseason that's impactful he is a focal point of that offense and that relationship with Trevor Lawrence is through the roof that's especially impactful for him for someone who's kind of had like the touch during regular seasons like the touchdowns has kind of been the thing that's always been as a not as Achilles Hill like I think it's just more of like a luck thing but like to see him doing that preseason like that should be encouraging that should make you want draft him a little bit more for sure I agree I'll be honest with you I actually just did it I I have so many drafts going on right now I took Trey McBride in solidarity for Justin steel I felt like I needed to have a share I haven't had a lot so I actually just took uh Trey McBride um I'm up I'm gonna make my picks and we'll go through it here but Debo after you were struck out again punch we got the second punch on you you decided to go and jump in and get uh Joe Mixon so talk about Joe Mixon and then I'll run us through where we're at I almost didn't even add Trey McBride to my queue because I knew steel was going to go with him that that's that's how much conviction I had but I was in between a few different guys with this pick and having the the flexibility of starting with bejon getting two wide receivers I know in this exercise we're starting three wide receivers um so it's Round 5 like could I go with an rb2 could I punt it down the road um I felt pretty good about the the wide receiver options that are probably going to be available to me after with my next pick so figured I was just going to sew up rb2 here I mean Joe mixon's a guy I've talked about the entire off season I'm higher on him can consensus I've got him as an RB one in my ranks I just he's going to get all of the volume he can handle in Houston and we think Houston can be a top five scoring offense this year yeah if Joe Mixon is in that offense and he's gobbling up an 80 to 90% snap share I mean legit top five is in his range of outcomes I I like the pick I you in the PPR format like Rashad white and Alvin chra kind of spoke to me a little bit but after that Rashad white went Patrick Mahomes Josh Jacobs Terry McClaren would have been one of the players for this draft for us to talk about rash rice and then gentlemen I decided to go with a stack I went with Mark Andrews getting a top tight end he's my number three tight end this year and I went with Lamar Jackson who was falling I don't try to dive into high quarterback but my thesis has been if you give me one of the top guys and you give me the best value and they fall I'm pretty comfortable with it was not in love with any running back was not in love with any wide receiver so I'd figured why not Shore up my tight end quarterback and it ended up kind of being a little bit of a stack which I know all of you guys have been talking a ton about so that's where I I decided to go with it as we move into the fifth round followed it up with t Higgins Anthony Richardson Amari Cooper Alvin chimra Z flowers and Debro we're all the way back to you baby uh I'm gonna go with a guy that again we talked about being high on Jacksonville uh in the conversation of Evan Ingram I'm going to go with Christian Kirk here um I know he's been a little bit banged up but I still think the ceiling is definitely there I mean and the reason I I'm warming up to Ingram more than I was the beginning of the offseason but the reason that I was lower on Ingram is because Kirk was the definitive wide receiver one there last year when he was healthy he was the wide receiver 19 in points per game so as a player you can still easily get as your wide receiver three on a lot of different teams if he out kicks that ADP and he's a consistent wide receiver too uh I mean it's just money man so I'm feeling pretty good about the team I mean with bejon Mixon and then I've got all three of my wide receivers uh sewn up feeling good about this squad so far feeling good about the team there all right I got something for you here in just a second Justin you're on the clock here what are we looking to do you got uh you're down to 15 what do we got man I'm gonna go I'm g go James Conor here just because I think I can get one of the receivers I was looking at on the way back I was trying to decide between Diggs and Dell um I think I'll be able to wait and if I don't get one of them there's still some receivers I still like I want to go ahead and make sure I locked up an rb1 that I somewhat enjoyed right there and I was decided between him and Stephenson kind of felt a little more comfortable Conor what was your is do you have a level of concern with the three wide receivers in Houston is that I mean if you're taking Dell I feel like Okay so let's here yeah that was exactly why I kind of just went ahead and went running back there okay yeah because I feel like it's very like everybody it's like black or white like you are either like on the side of one of those guys Diggs is going to eat Nico's going to eat or you're like I'm kind of scared of all of them maybe I don't want to get in that's another reason why I went Kirk too I kind of avoided the headache there too yeah and I love the Kirk pick too especially from a full PPR which we're doing uh so James Connor Kyler Murray Stefan dig CJ strad fantasy Guru Drew Drew you're up man yeah uh tank D baby I I'm very happy about it to your question for me it's it's Diggs that I'm most concerned about uh in that offense his a DOT over the last last year was lower than than it has been over the last five years since since some of his early years I believe that he is going to be and I guess I should put in my second Round 6 pick here look the other thing that I wanted to call out here is that a three wide receiver full PPR plus a flex position you do not want to wait on receivers and so I'm going to grab another one right here I'm going to grab George Pickins I still believe that Russ can throw the ball and Pickins is one of the best talents out there especially in this range give give me pickings all day yeah it's kind of funny too with like the the rumors the incorrect rumors of auk going to Pittsburgh let's say dbo uh that uh Brandon iuk would be a T Bar a ball Hawk and he would be a Target Monster in Pittsburgh and it's like well that's just gonna go to George Pickin I tend to think that there is some value in George Pickins overall uh one thing I want to do just real quick because I glossed over it horrible host didn't go back to it uh Drew let's start with you real quick do you have any take on the Kiren Williams uh on either a do you think it everybody's being overblown about the punt return thing and he's a value or do you think we should be concerned yeah uh a little of both if uh that's not necessarily a good answer but here's why I believe that McVey wants to give him the ball as much as possible and he kind of said it in his quote right he wants to put the ball in his hands a little bit more which a is a great thing B on the flip side they are also at the same time very confident in the backup right you wouldn't risk him for injury if you are not confident in Korum and so I think that km should be a Target late in your drafts and I think you can still draft Kiron where he has been going Justin do you have any do you have any trepidation on Kiron is he maybe you weren't interested in him in the first place but was that something that you were like oh yeah now I'm really not or are you g to take some of the value he fell to the back end of the third round in this one yeah I I mean I was a Hu I wrote I wrote him to my championships a few of my championships last year so I was able to get him last year in my leagues and I wouldn't say I'm necessarily scared off of him there's a some guys I would rather take in that second round than him right now where he went in this draft is kind of where I would be taking him um you know right you I don't know where Derrick Henry went in this draft but that's kind of the range where I kind of have him in my ranking right before me right before me in the second round I remember 21 y so it's not that I'm scared off of him but everything that Drew was saying like Blake km's good they drafted him they drafted him knowing that that he's good and they want to use him um the the stuff where he's like returning kicks and stuff I mean it's like read into it if you want like I mean yeah it opens up doors to get injured a little bit more but also I mean if he runs one back it's six points for you so that's cool but yeah I'll be yeah okay so you're on that I'm gonna be up here in just a second uh you took Keenan Allen so I wanna I want to get your guys' backtack picks uh we got a tight end from Debo and uh Justin you picked up Keenan Allen no concern I think that's actually another it's interesting we went from Kiren to polarizing to another polarizing player in Keenan Allen where you know everyone's like oh he's 475 pounds and he can't catch anymore and everyone's making a big deal about it but he's if you watch Hard Knox he looks phenomenal and he's still you know he is going to be a Target Monster were you just comfortable especially full PPR I feel like this is the home for Keenan Allen exactly I mean that was the whole reason I picked him right there full PPR the guy just Hogs targets it doesn't matter like those 10 yard in routes out routes Slants like he he just catches the ball every time and PPR it's what you need all right uh drbo you went with a tight end because you didn't get a tight end last that last round because Justin got Trey McBride who'd you go with I went with Kyle Pitts here and again we kind of talked about the the point of getting an elite tight end I mean with Evan Ingram Kyle pittz and George KD it's just kind of pick your flavor of that back end of the elite guys um I do have Round 7 Kyle pittz one spot above George KD I would have flipped that if iuk did leave because then I think it would have been more volume for KD so just from a talent perspective but really the volume I could see pits get out easily out targeting uh George KD this year uh we can kind of split hairs about like how effective Kyle pittz can be this year but I'm still in on him man I think that he wasn't fully healthy last year I don't think we really learned how banged up he was and coming back from the injury until the season was over now we know that I think this is career season for Kyle Pitts yeah and I I think it's also fair to like put more questions back into George KD too with iuk officially resigning that it's like I don't I don't think there's any slam dunk you know dbro call me a homer with the 49ers but like I'm pretty realistic about it too like I would take Kyle pittz over him I think you know he has the potential to be technically it would be like the number three piece in the offense but as far as the passing game goes he's going to see a lot of targets so I I really like that one de I want to get your take on this I completely agree with what we were talking about earlier the scarcity of wide receiver the fear in in PR I'm on the wheel sometimes I have to take some shots um and not worry about you know paying attention to ADP I decided to pick up two more wide receivers I went with Jaden Reed and Xavier worthy I went with big upside worthy who gets to be my wide receiver for and Jaden Reed who you know I think is Green Bay's Debo Samuel so I'm I maybe I'm losing a little bit of consistency here but dbo just real quick what do you think about that uh that backtack hit I just had I like it man I mean look Worthy is looking really Stout in preseason I think he's going to be a baller from the the word go uh Reed you know my concerns about him it just comes down to playing time we know he has the talent and stuff it just really comes down to are they going to play him more this year like is he going to get a 70 80% snap range uh on a weekly bases so that's really my only concern with him not so much the talent yeah well I and sadly I asked you while you're up so you're up so we're going to get your pick and then we're going to get Justin I'll just fill in a couple of the picks we had since we had uh after pit hits went Stevenson Ridley Aaron Jones Amir white Christian Watson 67 turn that's where I took Jaden Reed and Xavier worthy we had Dave Montgomery Evan Ingram Jackson Smith and jiga DeAndre Swift Joe burrow right in front of Derek Brown who Justin uh did you were you ever uh were you ever a hitter early in your baseball years yeah I was uh I would say I was a decent hitter I was going to go to college to do both okay okay I didn't even know that were were you in uh were you you were pitching when the was still obviously hitters were hitting two two career Big League hits well another strikeout you just got a strike out I know you did because Jaden Dan horrible leadup I just had there but the whole point is I know that Justin loves himself and Jaden mil the clock on purpose and I wanted to take him right in front of and and Debo was very rude about it so Justin do you want to say anything hor horrible that we can airor on uh on H YouTube here for Debo no you know we just pivot you know I pivot and I'm praying to God Caleb William Falls to me so I can have that beautiful stack I like it dbo what was up with the Jaden Daniels I mean for real I've got Jordan love and Jaden Daniels back to back in my ranks um so really I could have gone with either guy I just wanted to kind of dig the knife into steel just considering he's already sniped me twice yeah that's another one of those High shares right Justin what's the share percentage on Jaden he's my highest share percentage on beste ball I think it's 20% maybe night somewhere around there I like that all right and then you took romad dun I love that I actually thought I was considering ad dun to I was going to skip uh Jaden Reed and I was gonna go adun and worthy I was a little tempted if it was best ball I might have uh what are your thoughts on ad dun uh I mean I feel like where they drafted him the stock they put in him speaks for itself you know you watch his college tape his college season last year he was unbelievable you know Washington made an incredible run and he was a huge part of it um I believe they plan on using him right away he's one of them rookies that'll make an impact right away um and I'm hoping to get Caleb Williams here Round 8 because I think they're going to be there's going to be a lot of pass and touchdowns there Drew Drew had a chance to do something really funny and mean but he decided not to which is nice and I agree with that by the way watching uh yeah you could have done that uh watching Hard Knock Dunes looks phenomenal it's so funny how that show like getting that see behind the scenes sometimes you just get these guys and like that evaluation too of just seeing how clean they look really shines uh after a Dun went nii uh rahee moer javante Williams and then Drew you did a quarterback running back hit so talk to us about Dak and Tony Pard yeah I had to I had to scramble a little bit there I wanted a running back and my two that I had in mind were Nai and javante both of them went right before me and and three before me so I scrambled a little bit didn't have a quarterback yet I do think I got a little bit of value there with Dak is ADP is about 10 15 spots before so you know I'll take Dak there and then I'll take the former cowboy with Tony Pard who I still believe in his talent injured all of last year uh Deo has talked about this before it was under reported and now we can see him in a new refreshed offense healthy and and he's still the guy so I'm I'm excited about it yeah I like the Tony Pard pick actually a lot and then I just got sniped a little bit here we had Jake Ferguson Brian Thomas I was just really hoping would be another one of those guys that might fall back Taj Spears and just Justin is deep in the think tank right now what are we doing with this pick oh Brian and that's a snipe to all of us too all right de bro yeah another one and that hit me thought you were going Caleb Williams steal you just talked about waiting on him yeah what happened you I'm going after getting a little bit of death I need a little bit of running back you know sure yeah sure Justin did the we looking for the fastball and just dropped the slider that hear I hear you I hear you in a SE sir what are we doing bro well uh that was the top of my queue now I'm kind of bouncing between two different guys here um I'm going to take the volume and Lock Up the Volume here I'm in between going with uh either Devon single ter or Jerome Ford um I'm gonna take single terer because I know what his role is man he's gonna get all the touches he can handle as long as he's healthy it's just a bed on volume and I mean right now I have him as a top top 24 running back so to get him as my Flex pretty happy about that I am not pretty happy about that because that was exactly where I wanted to go uh we had single ter Jaylen Warren DeAndre Hopkins courland Sutton Drew how you feeling about your team right now read me off the team real quick what are what are The Vibes yeah I'm pretty happy with it you know I talked about it earlier the 12 is not something that I've been happy about to your point runs happen and you kind of feel like you're not in a good spot everything has fallen how I wanted I started with Gibbs and Harrison I ended up with Devonta Smith and Travis Kelce I'm H to my point earlier I'm happy to get a top five tight end because I think there becomes a steep drop off after that and then I followed it up with tank Dell George Pickins Dak Prescott and Tony Pard I am pretty I'm I'm sitting comfy right now Justin what are our uh what are our halfway through VI a little over halfway through Vibes on the team what do we got really like it so far especially the fact that I have McBride very happy about that um got a little best B stacking um Allen and Odun but it's not something I hate especially you know with Allen like I was saying he just gets so many targets and I believe Odun is Gonna Shine as well Deb BR are we happy how how how we doing man some of these picks i' be a little bit happier but I knew that I knew what kind of savagery I was going to walk into in this freaking draft I knew it was going to happen but I mean overall I'm happy with the team right now with Jaden Daniels uh be joh Joe Mixon ol DK mchf Kirk pittz and single Terry I mean a lot of things that I I want to check off a drafts get a rushing quarterback done going her RB and then backing up with volume and getting an elite tight end I mean again I I'm pretty happy about this team although there were I would be a lot happier if I had McBride and puka but again maybe that's just for another day it's gonna be very interesting to see uh what the fantasy pros ratings come out and the scorecards at the end of this uh we got more mock draft coming up here

it's live Gameplay at its finest check out Locker today all right let's get back to this bad boy I'm going to resume because I am on the clock and everybody sniped these Running Backs from me if uh you paid attention to my team which I don't really know why you would I started Christian mcaffrey but I have Lamar Jackson Cooper cup Brandon iuk Jaden Reed Mark Andrews and Xavier worthy I'm pretty damn happy with the team but the running backs are going to get away with me and I think that's Debo that's probably funny because I know like you and Joe you know I'm a little bit more of a running back guy and I have played pretty heavy pivot so far this year and this is one of those pivot situations where I really wanted to go heavy uh wide receiver so I need to get into the running back streets a little bit here so we are going to tag Austin Eckler full PPR I like getting Eckler it's not the best rb2 situation but it's a pretty good situation to get those receptions and if you guys watch the sleeper episode with Michael Florio you know that is one of Michael florio's uh top sleepers I want to jump back into Round 9 the uh running back Market but I gotta be honest guys there's a wide receiver that I just love and I'm not GNA let him slip and it's it's going Keon Coleman so Keon Coleman I think can be the number one on this team there's no harm in stacking up wide receivers especially in this format I wanted Brian Thomas earlier but again I do think Keon Coleman can be a number one and he is my prime number one bench wide receiver in any format that I can have it gives me tons of flexibility and we're kind of in the same tier of running backs that we're heading into uh Justin what are we looking at doing as we are finishing out we're kind of rounding out the rest of our roster and the bench what are you looking to do here with this pick so I I still like the grouping of quarterbacks I'm looking at so I feel like I can wait another round and still get somebody I like so at this point I think I'm just going to get a little bit more wide rece wide receiver depth since I've already got three running backs okay I like that so what do you guys think something I was thinking about I'm gonna tell the audience this right now you guys in the chat everybody that's watching I want you guys to comment below with your favorite team you can play favorites if you want not like maybe I'll be the one that takes a look and we're going to pick one person and we're going to give them a little fantasy pros credit what do you think about that DB BR we got a little fantasy pros credit to the store yeah in the comments your favorite team fantasy Guru Drew uh Justin steel Debo or the Welsh put it up there your favorite team in the bottom and maybe your favorite pick we'll pick one person will give a little bit extra away because we were talking off air about how we could you know maybe make this a little thing and I think we're going to be doing some tracking and it'll start with the fantasy pros expert rating at the end of this and we'll maybe follow and carry these teams in here so we had Jonathan Brooks Maris Brown lad makoni uh DVR is it D or DVR DVR okay DVR is in there not Derrik van rer but DVR and then dbo you're coming up here what are we looking at man I was really hoping Jonathan Brooks made it to me I figured I was just about to say the same thing yeah I I figur we were probably both looking at him still considering our constructions and after he goes I feel like it's just a long tier of running backs where I'm just like they're it's okay it's not you know amazing but I think at this point I'm probably going to take another swipe and get some wide receiver depth considering I only have three right now um I'm going to go with the guy that I think leads the Los Angeles Chargers in receiving it's not lad Maki he's already gone let's go Joshua Palmer oh Josh Palmer love that pick one of the top sleepers on the consensus uh sleeper rankings we got here Justin you're up man what are we looking at yeah um is this sixo passing touchdown I'm assuming this is uh I think it's standard this is for okay yeah that definitely makes me adjust my pick I was GNA go Jordan love but since it's what about Caleb huh yeah I'm gonna wait now right so I'mma go upside here take Jameson Williams my Alabama guy damn it love that have some big upside on the bench you know he ends up taking off I could just slide him right into that Flex I'm so glad somebody else feels the pain of what Steel's doing this entire draft and it's not just me the entire stinking time my apologies everyone yeah sorry Drew yeah right there Drew were you not happy about that is that what I got you know not so much uh that's where I was going I think the upside in that offense is incredible and if you can get the Deep shot in that offense and look I this is a very very hot take I think Alan ra is unquestionably the number one receiver in that offense I would not be too surprised if J MO is slightly behind him in total points I'm not saying he's going to beat him but I think we could see a one a 1B situation come through by the end of the season you know how bad I wanted to make a sound in there but you know why I didn't because that'll be a clippable thing we'll put out on the internet I wanted to get you to say that full thing because I it's not just a hot take but it like there's a reality there's a path of of uh you know just how explosive Jameson Williams can be and how this offense is passing it's just it's tough when you look at like leaport am manro St Brown Gibbs and you say where are where's the target share but this is a you know big explosive guy Drew you're up here I'll let you make your pick I want to get uh dbra I'm going to start with you just make it really quick we had this question in the Discord that came up today and someone was asking Round 10 what's the range what do you think the general spot is in a draft where you stop where the adjustment between best available and like oh I need to pay attention and do this into my roster construction where do you think that is I said around like round six is where I start to pay attention to like oh here's a run that's happening or here is what I need positionally so run or positional need where do you think that starts it kind of depends on your league like are you starting two wide receivers versus three what the board looks like let's say like this one let's say three wide receiver like this one I mean it could I really it's probably round five round five round six where you're looking at okay am I going to go with a tight end do I need another running back do I need another wide receiver what how am I going to shape the rest of this team I think it's it's somewhere in that round five five round six kind of range because that's where you're going to make the decisions and even I mean to be honest and I feel like I'm talking out both sides of my mouth here but it's round four to six basically because that's the pivot point of you're going to say I'm going to go Elite tight end versus getting my second or third wide receiver or quarterback so really I feel like that that's kind of the meat and potatoes rounds of where you're building pretty much the backbone of how the rest of your team's going to go yeah I just shook my head because I just I just got CED by Steel steel uh same question just really quick after you pick do you think like where where's a round where your focus is like oh here's a run or here's a positional thing when does BPA stop for you I I pay attention to runs a little bit when I'm drafting especially if it's like an active draft it's not just a mock um like in one of my home leagues there was a huge quarterback run and I was thinking like maybe I should start going ahead and like thinking about taking a quarterback but I ended up just you know grabbing some more depth and still end up getting Jaden Daniels in a round I wanted to get him in so it it's one of them things like if you're thin somewhere say receiver running backs and five or six in a row just went off the board yeah in that case it does make a ton of sense to go ahead and you know maybe go two in a row just so you have some depth there yeah so I think we I think we found the good range uh picking up on the uh picks by the way after the 98 of Jameson Williams we had Brock Bowers Jordan Addison dobs uh Drew you took shanet and jacobe Meers we had khil Shakir Z Moss Brandon Cooks Gus Edwards by Justin Steel m oh my God I just mlin to Derek Brown Benson and joku lock at corm and I just got sniped on Rico dle but Drew real quick uh why don't you give us a little take on shanet and jacobe Myers while yeah you know I will uh I will admit to my first mistake and I know we're we're picking who our favorite team is I think it's a no-brainer that you still go with mine but I will admit my first mistake here because Justin kind of threw me off with the Jameson Williams pick you know I wanted to give you props on your on your prior round pick of Keon colan I think if you can get an offense with Josh Allen who threw for 4,300 yards last year and his first Round 11 receiver off the board is in round nine that is wild and what I should have done is gone with khil Shakir because I think that he has just as much of a chance as being the 1A in that offense and and again 4,300 yards not taking one of those receivers until round nine that is wild yeah and and thank you for the compliment by the way you guys are both not Drew but you guys are both very rude steel and Debro with the running back stuff Gus Edwards I was like okay this is awful and then uh mlin really killed me I wanted to go the doual mlin stack there de bro so you got me back we actually did a mock earlier this year and I got you to you got you got me back on that one anything you want to break down on mlin real quick I mean I just keep drafting him man um it it it just comes down to don't know why yeah exactly I I I don't know why consensus hasn't come up higher on him he's still sitting in that rb4 range and I still think it's it's just as ludicrous as when I was in on him like since like January or February I think it's just as ludicrous then as it is now like it's the passing down back in a Shawn pyton offense like why is he not going two three rounds of headward he's at uh I uh double tapped because like I said you guys all my running backs went I ended up going with chuba which I actually think chuba is a really great value I didn't realize he was there because he's gonna be the guy early on uh I'm also trying to buy my time a little bit and then I went with JK Dobbins and I wanted to do this because I'm kind of a JK guy uh over Gus Edwards kind of in general but I like the touchdown Equity of Gus Edwards and Justin you went with Gus Edwards how close do you think that Dobbins and Edwards really are so I'm I'm just I terrified of drafting Dobbins I haven't drafted him one time just the two injuries back toback gears um if I get burned by it so be it it's one of them things I'll just be comfortable living with um I I I trust the equity and Gus Edwards getting those goal line touches and falling falling into the end zone so that's kind of why I took him there I feel like that's a really good bench piece for me yeah I like it uh Eddie Mitchell Samuel Goddard Elliott Josh DS that one kills me he's every team this year rased Shahed to Mr Derek Brown let's get the Shahed pick real quick and then let's go to the travesty of what we allowed to happen to Justin in this last pick after these three rounds of touting it but Dro uh talk has been talking the board the whole time and he gets the quarterback he wants here you know shocker uh but no man I I like Shahed here uh on my build he's my wide receiver five so really it's just Spike weeks I mean he's a guy that you don't want to count on as your your weekly wide receiver three but as a flex guy it's very similar at like all the years of kind of Gabe Davis can he win you a week we've already seen that last year but the the upside with Shahed is he might be Gabe Davis but he actually has better Target earning potential like maybe Shahed gets a 20% Target sh with his as Consolidated as his Saints passing attack is and apparently I should be drafting all the Derek Carr considering I did take olve and Shahed on the same team apparently uh Justin you still got Caleb you still got Caleb in this entire thing you you were like I really hope I get him three rounds later you still got your guy are we are we we gotta be pretty pumped yeah I just I took a look at the draft board and I was like everyone already has a QB and I think there was one team that didn't and I was like he's not going to take Caleb over these guys that are still there so I just I kept pushing it back kept pushing it back and it just kept falling Round 12 so I felt like that was the right time to do a sharp room man fact that Caleb and are still out there is insane right now oh the Jordan love one that actually shouldn't be going on that's crazy but we also have to get a hat tip to like Chicago boys Justin getting Caleb like steel x Caleb is like a very appropriate thing so shout out to Caleb Williams here uh the last couple picks we had Mike Williams um Davian Wicks that's that's a great pick Michael Wilson Drew alir and Mar Lloyd yeah there's there's a snipe to dbo get out of here dbro let's hear about the running backs yeah so my my strategy in a lot of these drafts are grab your receivers and grab them early late rounds go with the high upside running backs and Lloyd is one of the best ones available at this spot and I I I mean I think dbo you're gonna speak to that because you absolutely love marshan Lloyd like this is the second half play this is the guy that you fourth fifth running back you sit you don't worry about week six all of a sudden you start reaping the Ben and I think it's honestly crazy as much as we've seen his ADP drop uh I mean his ADP is dropping and and red draft it's dropping I mean he's to the stone men right now in beste ball like it's kind of crazy you'd swear that nobody's adjusting for the fact that he did not go on the IR and the fact that he is probably going to be back sooner than we think even with the Green Bay Packers being conservative his ADP right now you'd swear that the Green Bay Packers came out and an announc he's going to miss like six eight games so honestly I mean it's just it's just free money people need to keep drafting more of him uh picking up we had uh Irving Mooney oh man wri Judy to Justin steel and Derek Brown you up uh Jerry Judy was on my short list Steele so you're you're filling up that wide receiver core any uh any takes or thoughts you want to throw on Judy Roll Tide baby that's a it's an Alabama guy it's a guy d i was huge on him coming out of the draft I'm still on him I'm not I've been on him every single year it's the talent is there it's always been there the due gets open and I think he's going to get fed there you know he's got Amari Cooper there another Alabama Alabama guy so I really I I think the uh wide receiver room there takes an uptick this year you know fun fact too uh I was infuriated that draft because I wanted the 49ers to take Jerry Judy more than anything and they traded back took Javon kinlaw and that pick that they got back ended up being Brandon auk so I wanted Judy and I'm reminded by that by my friends that I wanted Jerry Judy bad but Brandon iuk ended up being the dude uh Demarcus Robinson to you D bro let's hear it I mean he was the wide receiver 31 after he got a starting role in this offense he's one of the best picks you can make uh at the end of drafts especially considering if you pair him with uh like one of these rookie upside guys that maybe doesn't hit the beginning of the year and you need to lean on D rob a little bit to the begin the year I mean Matthew Stafford's a king maker man like we know he's going to throw a ton of touchdowns his receivers are extremely prod and he's going to be on the the field all the time the Rams are still going to be top three in 11 personnel so I've continued to Draft Marcus Robinson the entire offseason not a statement I thought I would make walking into the 2024 season K Kendra Miller goes right after what what are your take takes on that man I poor kendre get get why why can't he stay healthy man like I hate it for him like it's EA beares him I mean yeah you ever seen all Cann stand by his team I mean he it's wild it's crazy R of Dennis Allen's mouth dude like Dennis Allen's just like unless they ask him about TM Hill Dennis Allen's basically like nah I don't like him don't like him don't like him they bring up taes and Dennis Allen like gets the like the biggest grin ever and then they bring up kendre and he's like walks away from the podium oh yeah no s go it's like da what do you think about the defense Kendra Miller's got to stay healthy I want to see you know those true you know those cartoons they do that's like the school of grid iron or whatever the hell they're called I you know like the stick figure guys I want to see one of just like inside the Saints camp and it's just kendre Miller and tesm Hill just goodon badon that's all they want to see all day long uh Kendra Miller Pat firemouth Antonio Gibson Dalton Schultz and uh pop Douglas I am absolutely thrilled about what I'm about to do because smartest pick of the draft Jordan Mason have to get top backup to Christian M I have mcaffrey so if I don't do it I'm a big stupid idiot and then I'm going to take a potential number one wide receiver on a horrible Round 13 team but I'm gonna go with Jaylen pulk uh with the Patriots because I want rookie upside on my bench as wide receiver I don't want I'm not say Adam thiel's not good he could get receptions and still but I'm not playing for Rashad baitman or Gabe Davis or Adam th and I'm playing for potential number one on Jaylen pulk so uh I'm actually very ecstatic about that wheel Justin are you agreeing with the pulk Mason totally there I I totally agree with both but especially the pulk decision especially in this wide receiver grouping that we're looking at here I totally agree with you on the number one wide receiver upside and what that can bring so we're like in the these are our last picks you guys I think well each have two I have got one should we be letting the Jordan love thing go on here like I know in this type of a format you're not looking to have second quarterbacks like what Drew L's start with you like what is your thought on like a second quarterback to that degree in drafts like this like I I know it's kind of Blasphemous to have like two quarterbacks and single quarterback well he just wi still yeah you yeah yeah Debo just takes him and and look I think that's a great pick it's also something that I've seen in a lot of Home leagues and I think you probably see it a lot this weekend as as more and more people draft waiting on a quarterback is a viable strategy there is nothing wrong with it especially especially if you are in a league where there's a lot of trading load up on those running backs load up on those receivers because you can then wait on your quarterback and as a couple injuries pile up as a couple of your receivers hit it big and a couple teams need some receiver and running back help you can pull off a pretty good steal at that point in the draft or in the trade in the league and there's all no pun intended either uh there's also a sneakiness that's going on here because if you're looking for the values uh Justin you did the same thing uh you ended up playing again it's like this is weird like what production I need now to the upside of what I can have later and you took TJ hawson and it's a pretty easy path where T.J Hawkinson can be a top five wide receiver when he returns so you got a pretty good value I I like Round 14 the sneakiness of that exactly and I I love pairing a tight end like that with what I think will be the tight end one McBride because I can play both of them if they're both performing well hackinson takes over that bye for him and what to what he was just saying trade bait if TJ Hockinson comes back and blows up his first few weeks somebody's going to want to in same thing can be said like kind of Vice Versa to what he's saying if you're in a league where it's six-point passing touchdowns and you have for instance in one of my leagues I have Jaden Daniels and then I have Brock p on my bench and you know someone's thin at quarterback someone goes down all of a sudden they need a quarterback and it like it's dire you're able to get some really good depth off of that I love that uh dbo you were the one that pulled the trigger you said no more Jordan love hate and I was going to probably do the same had I not had pul and Mason there I love was going to be the other one I was just going to do it didn't matter if I had uh Lamar Jackson or not it was too good of a value was that kind of yeah it's just too late man it's it's too late and as much as I love Jaden Daniels and I would have been fine going with just Jaden Daniels and avoiding it but I mean Jordan love at this point of the draft it's just it's free Equity whether you keep him whether you play matchups whether you trade him I mean I know this is a mock and stuff but still you're going to attack this like you would your normal home league and stuff and from that perspective they both Crush in the the first three weeks of the Season somebody gets injured and stuff I mean like what Steele just said then you're trading it man like it just it's easy I people people appreciate it too because oh yeah no go I'm sorry go ahead no please look in hindsight if I would have known that Jordan love was going to go this late and look me you know I shouldn't have expected this late but even a couple rounds before that I would have waited on Dak Prescott I would have grabbed someone like Brian Thomas so out my receiver room a little bit more and waited on quarterback because to my point earlier you can do that in home leagues and and this is a good spot to do it I think we all would have done that also I just wanted to comment what a really po interesting point I think you made too was like you know dbo you had posted the Tweet you're like Hey we're doing this awesome Mock and one of the first comments is like oh you're gonna do like a draft that you don't care about like okay I get the points of that but like I also want you guys to like understand the competitiveness of of this Justin has been like camera up like Justin is in to this Debo is always in we pissed Drew off like we're into this and we're also going to put a little stake to it so I don't I think people need to check themselves on the mock drafts like oh it doesn't mean anything no it means something because guess what as soon as this is done we're going to see the ratings up there and we're going to pretend it doesn't matter but when de bro is below all three of us he's not going to be happy about it and in a couple months you best believe that I will go back and tally up these points and prove to you guys that the best team I know and I will tell you this if I'm the number one and I win this out I know we're Justin's gonna be in February and March in my city and I'll find him and I'll let him know well she did it all right I got the final pick here can't wait for you can't wait for you to bring me my belt yeah exactly I'm gonna I'll break into Cubs C Justin's gonna have to tell security like hey I got a guy that's coming here and I'll be walking past Shota and Dansby and I just got a belt for Justin like that scene at a rookie of the year when when when he knocks on the door and he's like oh that's a horse of a different color come on in uh one thing I want to do real quick I'm gonna make my last pick Justin we can you really quickly comment on like just the love you were mentioning all the your teammates use it you just did the Cubs draft is there anything you just wanted to share with it you got one of your Cubs teammates in the room people are probably wondering who is hanging with you I'm just curious about the love yeah so yeah Tyson was just doing one of his home League drafts and we were kind I was kind of giving him some advice on picks and stuff I really really like the team you just drafted but I mean yeah I literally I recommend the draft wizard to everybody all the Draft Recap & Analysis time like if you know I I get asked fancy questions all the time because my friends back home family members teammates everybody knows I care a lot about this and that's the first thing I say I was like download draft wizard read what it says read what the experts on there saying it's you know you guys doing that I got a 86 out of 100 I don't know what it hates about my team but I love it wait wait till we get to this did you guys real quick did you guys do any for the Cubs league did you see all those videos that they're out there people are like doing a chipping contest did you do anything unique for the draft order yeah we we threw darts at a balloon board if you missed it's an extra $100 into the pot so you do that a number falls out and that's the order you shoot a beer pong shot whatever cup you make that's your draft pick if you miss a beer PK shot it's another $100 amazing where's the video of this we're seeing is these dudes doing yeah 130 yard chips I want that video on social media it was nerve-wracking especially if you're trying to like aim for a cup for a draft pick you want and yeah who got the first pick na oh ni oh Nico did all right nice I love that I love that all right so we've got the uh we got the draft insights here boy I'm there there's some well well she call this yep I may have called it I'm going to give out some of the I don't know if everybody has it up and you're welcome to say it as we blow this Captain Neo by the way congratulations Captain Neo was the winner on the projections uh from the fantasy pros Discord so we got to give a shout out to him give him a prize trust Venom was two Blake was three we did not finish in the top three ladies and gentlemen with the highest score of this panel is the Cubs Ace Justin steel with the best score of any of us we all just got schooled dudes out there school and baseball players and school and fantasy pros analyst you got the the fourth best score Justin with that team why don't you rattle off your team and then I don't know if you have the insights up if you don't I can give them but let's hear uh what the team construction was yeah yeah let me see let me how do I pull up my team real quick I'm looking at the 86 out of 100 right now let me see if I can pull up my team I got it if you need it um draft if you go over to draft board and then sort by team yeah started with Bree Hall follow fed up with puka then went Mike Evans Trey McBride got my second RB James Connor and then fed up with Kenan Allen Odun grabbed my third RB at this point Brian Robinson followed up with Jameson Williams and then another running back Gus Edwards grab my quarterback Caleb Williams to stack with ad dunay and Keenan Allen and then grab Jerry Judy T.J hackinson tight in depth and then Brock p as my last pick very nice uh pretty pretty good this is a very funny thing uh so going through this by the way it did say what if you had drafted Stefon Diggs at 5'8 and a running back later you would have scored higher so it was just telling you on the running back side of it you have a bye-week issue Mike Evans Trey McBride and James Conor on there two steals of the draft both of your quarterbacks you got Caleb three rounds later how funny is that by the way because you said it three rounds before and then you got the value on it and Brock uh Brock pie yeah you took Brock py right you got him six rounds later than he was ranked and uh dver I don't know if you see this the person that loved Steel's draft the most my boy Scott Bogman my my childhood best friend who's here Scott Bogman uh gave the highest ranking other experts that loved we had Scott Bogman Bill inright the grid iron sight rankings Dalton deldon from Yahoo and Marco Enriquez from fantasy pros here unfortunately we didn't have any of us on the hate side but there was one F Stephen Thomasson obviously must be a Cardinals fan or something he didn't like that draft but Justin you were at the tippy top you won it coming in at number two fantasy Guru Drew you finished both higher than me and Debo though I will say uh I finish right after Drew you and I were six points apart let's hear the team and let's hear your thoughts on it yeah you know I'm really happy through the first six rounds I got Gibbs Marvin Harrison Devonte Smith Travis Kelce tank Dell George Pickins I mean that is one of the best starts to a draft that I've maybe done this whole summer and then starting round seven is where I think I'm messed up a little bit we've talked about the the steals of the draft of of quarterback I went Dak Prescott because to your point at the onset I was worried that we were gonna see a QB run and I wasn't gonna get anyone you startable so I went Dak Prescott Tony Pard Zack sharan jacobe Meyers because I couldn't get Jameson Williams and I was too flustered to draft khil Shakir and then I just went upside Tyler Alger Marshon Lloyd Rashad baitman Quinn Johnson I think both of those at the end there is pretty good upside for receiver and my running back laate upside I'm pretty happy with too uh on the insights Ryan Weiss from Club Fantasy loved you the most he gave you a 94 that's an a Adam Stark Scott Smith uh Adam Dove and Kyle KUSI both had John here hate came from uh Nick bodaford not a fan F Scott panowski was on there as a d yeah I don't know I don't know where the hate come from Raju bfield Raju usually hates most of my drafts in there but you had an 83 out of a 100 and I finished right below you so uh let me pull up mine real quick here and I'll give you some of my insights my team ended up being Lamar Jackson at quarterback Christian mcaffrey Austin Eckler at rb2 I had Cooper cup Brandon iuk Jaden Reed Mark Andrews my Flex with Xavier worthy my bench Keon Coleman chuba Hub JK Dobbins Jaylen pulk kamani Vidal and Jordan Mason that is the best bench you could possibly want in a PPR I don't care what anybody says uh my expert rankings Adam uh Scher fantasy pros liked my draft most Joe Sero Shane hollam David hailman oh my guess who hated my draft more than anybody everybody take a breath Justin would you like to take a guess just you don't even know all these people who do you think hated my draft more than anybody probably this the the guy your coworker that's on the screen oh oh look at that guy that right there the guy that thought brenon iuk was going to be a commander a brown a patriot yes Dereck Brown you hated my draft and what is so fun you didn't even hate Brandon iuk you didn't even hate that as the pick you hated Cooper cup Jaden Reed and Austin ekler you gave me an f d bro problem I still love you Welsh I do I just don't love your team what's your problem what's your problem man I don't understand I knew I knew you were gonna bring me up I was like oh dear oh it's coming yeah I did get uh I did have a JK Dobbins was the number three consensus sleeper on the board uh but it said I reach for Xavier worthy and Keon Coleman I don't care care Debro unfortunately our Biggest Loser today in the 10 spot Debo give us this team that just couldn't stack up against fantasy Guru Drew Justin steel or even LOL Welsh I like this team I mean look I I and it says it in the grades I gave myself a 98 and I'm not backing off of it I mean you were the number one left the number one look I'm staying on brand you know I mean it's funny how that works it does it's funny how that works um yeah I mean I like the team man I got Jaden Daniels bejon Robinson Joe Mixon Devin single Terry Jalil mlin and then the wide receiver room Chris alve DK medf Christian Kirk Josh Palmer rashed Shahed Dr Rob Germaine Burton at the end they know my Burton love um and then I've got Jordan lovees uh as well at quarterback Kyle pittz is my only tight end but I'm paying up for it so I didn't need a number two yeah I I like this team I think the the the thing about this team is and the way that I approach a lot of the drafts I don't care about hitting ground R doubles I want homers man I'm going all upside and a lot of it comes down to I'm willing to invest in White in offenses that I think are going to blow up this year and Seattle is definitely one um and so is Jacksonville and the Washington commanders so again this is a lot of me just investing in offenses that I really like and maybe that just hands opposed to consensus I like it man and I'll tell you you guys this I'd be curious what you guys think again I'll tell you we're going to give uh something away we'll give a uh code to the gift store so someone can get some at the fantasy Pro store for your favorite team but here's the other thing I want to know what you guys think in the comment section what do you think we should do with these how should we track these Drew is on it I think we should track these but what do you think it should be should it be Debro and Welsh versus Drew and Justin should it be a four-way and we see who scores the best what's the punishment and what's the prize put it in the comments below let us know what you guys think because I will absolutely love to hear that Debro uh real quick final draft thoughts for people going in this is the final weekend final mock draft just give a really quick what do you any piece of advice whether it's a player or strategy or anything I I think we've talked about it on this show we've talked about it all draft season and I want to walk away with an elite tight end um that is especially true if you're in playing in smaller leagues like eight team 10 team leagues then you pay up the onesie positions cuz those can be the difference makers for you but I'm not going to build many teams this year best ball or redraft notwithstanding without getting a top seven top eight tight end just not doing it Drew Drew same thing I'm goingon to throw to you uh any last you've given you guys have given a lot of great advice throughout this if you just want to throw out one more thing again it could be a specific player strategy whatever it is what's something you want to throw at the audience for the draft weekend look look I I've had the opportunity to draft a lot of teams with drbo which which I've really liked and I will say this is the best team team that I've seen him draft still not saying it's very good but it is the best team that I've seen him draft um just want to thank you guys for having me on the podcast look I I think you've seen steel today uh look we've seen him on the mound a stud out there we now know that he is a stud in the fantasy streets as as well I just want to call out that he is also one of the nicest people that you meet so I'll I'll toss it I'll do your role there and toss it over cosign cosign yeah and I and I I want to second that too because I agree Justin is one of the best dud dud and literally just hit me up the other day it's the funniest thing Justin was like I was on the draft Wizard and I and I just thought of you and you hit me up and I was like that's the weirdest and nicest thing of all time that the draft wizard was the thing Justin is a great guy and spent over an hour here kind of busy kind of a lot going on uh and you spend a lot of your time doing a lot of this analysis as well Justin I mean like I said it's not there's no gimmick to it that's what I think is so fascinating about this it's not a gimmicky thing hey we got a starting pitcher in MLB you do your work and you put it on paper you've probably put up hundreds of drafts so far so the same thing again it's like what's that last little piece of advice you want to throw anything out to anybody first off thanks for having me and thank y'all for the kind words right there that really means a lot y'all are great and I just you know it means a lot coming from y'all but um for one thing I would say to fantasy players that are going into their drafts into their fantasy leagues trust your stance like for me like it's you know I have Jaden Daniels and Terry McClaren and every single one of my my leagues if that works out I win I win two out of three maybe three out of three leagues like trust your stands like that's how you win leagues you gota like if you have something like for me like Trey McBride like I'll I'll reach for him like that's something I think that can be a difference in winning a league and like for me I just think trusting your stands and going for it like that's where you know put you separate yourself and win leagues I think it's conviction I think it's a big conviction to your players it's it's a great way to do it not in love with ADP and be convicted to your strategy and don't get uh frazzled like when Rico d goes right before you or Derrick Henry goes right before you like don't or you get sniped on puka not that that was you get sniped happen in the stra or anything yeah perfect I love it friends we had
