Happy June to you. So glad that you're hopping a
board tonight. Good evening, and how are you.

Speaker 4 (06:43):
I'm doing great? I man, I'm worried. Is there gonna
be a test on all the information you just came out.
I'm trying to keep notes. I'm trying to enter stuff
over here. I you know, you are a record setting
trail blazer k f FSSC player and and you know,
and then you run down all the options in the

(07:06):
f f PC. I don't want to go on the safari.
I want to come to New York. It's been a
week with Alex k That's what I want to do.
You know I would love that too. That would be
my safari into New York. Uh Rick Ross has talked
to about Rick says I don't usually get to watch live.
He likes to marinate in the in the discussions that

(07:27):
we have. It's great to have everybody here live.

Speaker 1 (07:30):
Well, we're gonna get the funny discussions tonight, Pharrell, before
I move on, You and I were talking before the
show and we said, Hey, bring up the kf F
f C one hundred dollars sweet sixteen.

Speaker 4 (07:43):
Oh yeah, tonight. That's really exciting. That's really exciting to
get in that hundred dollars league, Chase. No, there's no
million dollars.

Speaker 1 (07:52):
It's the it's the but it is a ten thousand
dollars grand prize, right.

Speaker 4 (07:56):
Uh, that that is in the three hundred dollars. That's
Three've only got ninety sixteen, so that one hundred dollars
entry the grand prize is in the neighborhood of three
thousand dollars big prizes in the division. So yeah.

Speaker 1 (08:08):
So my point is the one hundred dollars one that
league filled, and we're already often running on that.

Speaker 4 (08:15):
That was the no matter what, and that that field.
But there's still six choices, which are all presently scheduled
to be slow drafts, and there's still six choices. Six
divisions available for anyone that would like to join now,
the old fashioned Baulky that's the one you're in in
the Run to Daylight, which is a three hundred dollars

(08:37):
buy in, and as soon as that one fills, when
we often run.

Speaker 1 (08:40):
Well over halfway full, only a few spots left in that.
That's the twenty twenty five Run to Daylight Sweet sixteen Championship.
You can compete against me, and I'm not ashamed to
say we have God who else do we have in that?
Stuke Keane, who has been a guest on this show.
Our good buddy don At Gusetti is in that one

(09:01):
as well. Last week's guest on this show, Steven Heregalos
is also on that show. Or in that league? Excuse me,
Jake the like a longtime f f PC twenty six
er who I know you compete with and against in
the f f PC, he's in that league as well.
It's it's a lot of fun. Join us now kf
f s C dot com and of course all the

(09:22):
main event onlines that are going on right now. Slow
this this is the time to get into Like there's
people that are telling you don't join the league right now.
It's June. Nothing happens.

Speaker 4 (09:31):
Trust me.

Speaker 1 (09:33):
People are moving the needle on ADP right now. Rightly
or wrongly, you decide when you join the league at
KF f f C or of course uh the f
f PC as well. It is it's the time to draft,
and I'm gonna let every reading on that.

Speaker 4 (09:46):
Right now.

Speaker 1 (09:48):
To drafting in June. Let me raise my glass to
this here. I got a h I got a hazy,
I p a that.

Speaker 4 (09:55):
You got a pineapple whip? There looks good.

Speaker 1 (09:58):
One pineapple whip, two pineapple WHI three point o moos
Colston Loveland, what do you want to do him? Well,
that's my question to you. He's coming back from off
season shoulder surgery. Adam I don't know if he's pronouncing
this right. And either Adam Johns or Adam Yhns, who
covers the Bears for the Athletic says that Loveland was

(10:18):
spotted in uniform. He was coming out to the practice
field with other members of the Bears, like the staff
members from the Bears. This was on the final day
of mini camp this past week. Yn's stated that head
coach Ben Johnson said, quote, at some point here in camp,
we should get the green light for Loveland to come

(10:40):
back and practice with the rest of the team. As
a reminder, the Bears utilize the tenth overall pick in
the draft this past April on Loveland over Tyler Warren,
and Loveland underwent shoulder surgery in the off season. Now
he has a great chance at being the number one
tight end for the Bears, even though Chicago gave Cole

(11:01):
Comet all that money and Ben Johnson, by the way,
did compare him to Sam Laporta he coached in Detroit
these past few years as well. If we look at
the mojo on Colson Loveland right now and pharall, what
I'm gonna do is I'm gonna utilize the FFPC big
gorilla data on this which is at fantasymojo dot com.

(11:25):
Fantasy Mojo the place that we always cite anytime we
utilize anybody on this show, we always utilize Fantasy Mojo.
I highly recommend getting a subscription to fantasymojo dot com
if you're drafting in the FFPC. Darren immani the godfather
of the FFP versus Joe's he knows what's up. And
Colson Loveland right now, over the last seven days has

(11:46):
an ADP of the nine o two at tight end thirteen.

Speaker 4 (11:51):
Aryl.

Speaker 1 (11:51):
We have seen a really good track record of tight
ends being drafted in the top fifteen, having not only
solid NFL careers, but good rookie years as well. However,
Loveland is coming off this shoulder surgery, and you don't
want rookies, especially a tight end, getting off to a
slow start. How do you feel about that ADP with
Colston Lovelin right now at the nine to two, knowing

(12:14):
he is going right behind Tyler Warren and Dalton Kincaid,
but he is going ahead of Tucker Craft and Jake Ferguson.

Speaker 4 (12:20):
I feel everything very very positive about this, and he
should go in front of Craft and Ferguson. This is
a well we're going to begin to see be very
very successful at the tight end position in a Bowers
esque way. However, more physically imposing player, but who moves
the same way. This is a move player. He's a

(12:42):
fluid player. He's more of a hybrid wide receiver despite
the fact that he's six' six and he's got a
catching frame that you, know our young quarterback there In
chicago can't throw, over out or around you can just
kind of generally be targeted and you're going to find
this guy. Now the coach likes, it which is a,
big big. Deal the coach and the tight end get

(13:02):
there at the same, time and that Leaves Cole combette
to do the dirty. Work Co commeette is still going
to be a very, good contributing football player to this.
Team it's going to free up things for this. Player
it's going to Help loveland be a better player and
be more productive fantasy. PLAYER i love what is going
to happen. Here is he going to have A bowers like?

(13:23):
YEAR i don't, know but he certainly. Could the uh you,
KNOW i was thinking About, buyers who we talked about
often on the. Show the general manager last year went
out of the box too and drafted very early a
tight end In bauer's, case and he was very. Successful
that general manager got. Fired sometimes you just you, know

(13:45):
you just can't you just can't be good enough in
this football. Business But loveland is going to prove that
things In chicago on the coaching, side in the front office,
side And i'll remind everybody in the training room side
that the shoulders not a serious. Situation it's not going
to impair him from advancing as to what he needs to.

Speaker 1 (14:08):
Do so that's the situation With. LOVELAND i happen to
agree with, You. Farrell i'm not Dinging loveland too much
on this right. NOW i think the more concerning shoulder
injury right now is coming out Of. Indianapolis Jeremy fowler
reported today that he was told, structurally, Quote Anthony richardson's shoulder.

Speaker 4 (14:29):
Is, okay, okay all.

Speaker 1 (14:31):
Right So Shane, steichen who's the head coach Of, indianapolis
said That richardson is not expected to have surgery on his. Shoulder,
However fowler FROM espn reported That richardson did indeed undergo
a scan on his. Shoulder it did reveal no structural.
Damage richardson at, times according To Jeremy, fowler has thrown
more than one hundred passes daily as he prepares to

(14:54):
become the head THE pb one for The, colts as
he's competing for starting reps With Daniel. Jones now the shoulder,
injury it sounds like it's just, inflammation but again we don't.
Know this is just the and the injury reporting on
stuff in Early june is nothing compared to what the
injury reporting is going to be in Early, september Early,

(15:16):
october so, on and so. Forth he should be able
to come back for training camp because he's going to
get a lot of. Rest he's going to be able
to relax that shoulder as. Well, however when you consider
That Daniel jones took less money to sign With indianapolis
leaving The Minnesota vikings knowing that he be competing WITH jj,
McCarthy i think this is interesting In OTA's richardson And.

(15:40):
Jones before the injury To, richardson we saw him kind
of splitting reps With. Jones richardson And, jones nobody had
the leg up in this, competition and now we have
a shoulder injury For richardson THAT i. Know like WHEN
i was doing the broadcast last night as we were
covering THE Ffpc Bestball, Tournament Theo gremanger drafting, Live Dave
tripoli joining me as, well both of those guys did

(16:01):
express some concern With. Richardson, ferrell how concerned are you
About Anthony richardson right now in fantasy football, drafts knowing
that he is dealing with this supposedly structurally sound shoulder.

Speaker 4 (16:15):
Injury it's interesting because people. Drafted people Overdrafted Anthony. Richardson, now,
hindsight that's share. Ferrel sure everybody Overdrafted Anthony. Richardson most
people were, conservative pumped the brakes On Anthony richardson because they,
said you know, what he just hasn't played a lot of.
Football he needs to play more, football and he hasn't
played a lot of fo and you know he's had.

(16:37):
It he's had some terrible situations with his. Body so
you have to, say, well, Sure Anthony richardson may not.
Play you say, that you say that Quarterback jones took less.
Money i'm not feeling too bad for. Him the deal
is fourteen million, dollars so he's coming in at fourteen,
Million SO i don't think The colts pay him fourteen

(16:59):
million not to come in and. Compete, however If i'm
running The colts AND i take the, look and and
by the, way just quick without looking, balky how many
Years jones been in the, League i'd say. Five, yeah
it's seven, now oh my, god, yes it's seven. Years

(17:19):
this guy's been in the league and he had a good.
Year this will be his seventh. Year he had a
good year a couple of years, ago When Dave ball
controlled a controlled passing game with a lot of. RUSHING
i don't see that being the way The colts are
going to play. Football there's a note on here that,
says how does this Affect pittman And? Warren and you

(17:41):
know you're going to have a short passing game With
jones on the. Field With richardson's you, know say it
again that downfield accuracy is a beautiful, thing and the
other things he can learn just by. Repetition so that's
the biggest. Problem he hasn't played a. Lot if he's
not in OTAs and not ready to, go he's missing that,
reputation which is probably the only starting quarterback in THE

(18:05):
nfl THAT i would be real concerned about that, now,
HOWEVER i like the fantasy football upside of all The
colts better With richardson on the. Field what's our adp On?
Richardson What's? Darren God hi?

Speaker 1 (18:20):
Meant, Yeah that's WHAT i was going to ask you
next with in regards to The indianapolis quarterback, Situation Daniel
jones is being drafted quarterback thirty three at the eighteen Eleven.
Richardson over the last seven days in THE Ffpc Big
gorilla quarterback twenty seven at the sixteen oh.

Speaker 4 (18:35):
Seven, okay sixteen oh. Seven where people spending five fifth,
round six round draft picks on this player last? Year,
yeah they. Were and he's a better player now than
he was last. Year and you, know so it's sixteen
in the. DRAFT i have no. Concerns i'm just gonna
go ahead and.

Speaker 1 (18:55):
Draft So Scott hoyt chiming in health the. Side Anthony
richardson is still complete quarterback YET i don't think anybody's
going to argue. THAT i think we expect more From.
Richardson you, Know.

Speaker 4 (19:06):
Derek carr is not a complete. Quarterback no wait a,
minute and he's not going to become. One, yeah you,
know every quarterback's working on completing that perfect. Season none
of them are ever going to get. There AND i
understand What scott's. Saying, he's you, Know. Richardson's richardson's. PASSES
i THINK i saw stat AND i can't remember exactly

(19:29):
how it was. Phrased, oh off target. Passes twenty percent
of his passes last year were off, target meaning they
were out of the catching zone what they would be
ruled as an uncatchable.

Speaker 1 (19:42):
Pass so the other THING i want to bring up.
Here John terry, Said Michael pittman is so good that
quarterback doesn't matter for. You farrell and you may like
not even tongue in, cheek agree with. That John terry
also Saying richardson being the starter is only good fantasy.
Wise Anthony richardson And Scott hoyt chiming in on YouTube right.

(20:04):
Now Daniel jones starting for The colts Helps Michael, pittman
Helps Tyler. Warren If jones is the starter Over, richardson
who do we bump up Among colts pass catchers in
our draft?

Speaker 4 (20:15):
Boards you Can you really can't bump up anyone because
they're gonna catch, passes they're going to gain about eight
or ten. Yards they don't they won't, have they won't
have the type of explosive offense if you if you're
going to as a football team trying to be successful
With Daniel, zones and we talk About richardson's not, PLAYING

(20:35):
i bet You richardson has won more games than he's
lost in his brief, career or he's right around five.
Hundred jones loses two thirds or more of the games he.
Started you would have to fact check me on that,
ballkie Because i'm doing that on the on the.

Speaker 1 (20:54):
Cuff but it's not worth it BECAUSE i think you're
in the ballpark with.

Speaker 4 (20:58):
That i'm.

Speaker 1 (20:59):
NOT i don't think anybody's going to fight you on.
That Anthony, richardson AS i, stated according To Mojo quarterback twenty,
seven right, Now Anthony, richardson who was like roughly quarterback,
six quarterback seven last year in a lot of, leagues
is now this, year one year after going that, high
going behind rookie Cam, Ward Gino, Smith Bryce, Young Matthew
stafford to a tongue of By, Lowell Michael, Pennox Trevor,

(21:21):
LAWRENCE jj, McCarthy C J stroud And Jordan. Love those
guys are all going well Ahead anthony Richards.

Speaker 4 (21:28):
Last, year drafters thought he was too. Good this year
they think he's not good. Enough he's not good at. All,
yeah and say he's gonna fall somewhere in the middle of.

Speaker 1 (21:36):
IT i want to get Into Aaron rodgers and then
This Deiani brown news From jaguars Dot COM's John. Ozer

Speaker 2 (22:37):
Great, Great thanks so much for having. Me really happy
to be on the. Show, Obviously i'm a Big ravens,
fan season ticket holder for The, ravens so. Good you,
KNOW i GUESS i do hedge a little bit towards The,
ravens but in fantasy this year it makes a lot
of sense.

Speaker 1 (22:52):
Anyway so that's and we're gonna lead off with. That
parrel's gonna ask you about that because WHEN i was
looking over your teams and your, OWNERSHIP i was kind of,
LIKE i don't want to say blown, away BUT i was,
Like Holy, kyle look at all This rivens. Ownership we'll
get into that in a. Second when you're not winning
all THESE ffpc leagues over the, Years, kevin what are
you doing for a living In?

Speaker 4 (23:10):
Maryland?

Speaker 2 (23:12):
Sure So i'm in sales, management happily doing. That BUT
i do treat fancy football basically like a second, job
to be honest with. YOU i MEAN i study at
about three four hours a day all the, time you,
know a year, around not just during the football. Season,
YEAH i would say. Average of course during the football,
season especially the waiver. Period then it's a little bit

(23:34):
more than.

Speaker 4 (23:34):
That OH i love. That that's really. Good you. KNOW
i always love a. Salesman it's. Fantastic when you're going
to Those ravens. Games are you taking longtime football fans
that you've grown up with to the? Games are you
taking business people to the? Games are you're taking family
who's accompanying you to all these games with these season

(23:57):
tickets for The.

Speaker 2 (23:57):
Ravens once once in a while being a friend or a,
colleague but most of the time it's. Family we only
have three, tickets so that limits the options with the.

Speaker 4 (24:08):
Family, well, yeah you have to have your own little
lottery THAT i, mean you'll pick that. OUT i love
the fact that you're Stacking. RAVENS i love the fact
that you're having success with. IT i have done the same,
thing have not enjoyed that kind of. Success but being From, Louisville,
kentucky we are drawn to collecting as many types as many.

(24:30):
Teams with Quarterback Lamar jackson leading the. TEAMS i have
long thought in, naturally the running Back henry is, spectacular
And andrews has made his. Contributions BUT i have long
thought you get the favorite Raven my favorite Is. Flowers

(24:51):
But i've thought that there's just not enough passing opportunities
to get those players up to eighty ninety catches on
a regular, basis which we'd have to have to win
At fantasy this. Week bateman sided a, big big contract
and you know his his year last year was perfect

(25:13):
because of the nine. Touchdowns so the STRATEGY i think
that you're. APPLYING i THINK i know what it is
is BECAUSE i think you're getting value on all The
ravens you, draft Including. Jackson is that what it? Is
or are you just so familiar with those players and
believe in them that you're just gonna go get, Them

(25:34):
you're gonna target, Them you're gonna put them in your.
Team you, lone what's the mix look like to?

Speaker 2 (25:39):
You, WELL i would say it's a little bit of.
BOTH i, mean, SURE i have love for the, team
AND i study them the. MOST i MEAN i, read you,
know just local news all the time, anyways so it
makes it a little. Easier BUT i think That Lamar
jackson possibly will be like the greatest at least regular season,

(26:00):
quarterback which is really the fantasy season quarterback you know
that we may ever. SEE i, mean it's really pretty,
amazing you, know regular season you guys have the. Stats you,
know it's just it's it's almost. Untouchable so for, me
he's my main. Guy you, know any LEG i can
get him, In i'm gonna take. Him you, know there's

(26:21):
other quarterbacks that are, close BUT i just feel really
good about. Him and then obviously that means people around
him are going to do. Well, so you, know one
of my strategies is That i'd like to stick with
consistency and also kind of stay away from injury prone.
Players So i've been burned a few times in the

(26:43):
past by players that can be tops in the, legs
like A christian, McCaffrey you, know and it's just one
of these things WHERE i don't want to take that.
Chance SO i would rather Take Derrick henry and just
get you, know consistency. There maybe he doesn't totally blow
it up all the, time but chances of him going
down are pretty.

Speaker 4 (27:02):
Slim, Yeah And i've been talking to the same guy
since twenty twenty one to tell me That henry's. Through
oh he. Can't he can't carry the ball like. That
every year he's going to rest to the mean whatever
the hell that. Means, ball what's on your?

Speaker 1 (27:18):
Mind, well, No i'm just Saying i've probably been one
of them BECAUSE, i.

Speaker 4 (27:21):
Oh bal you don't make. Mistakes, No, no he's an.

Speaker 1 (27:24):
Alien and he's proven that he's been an alien over
the course of the. Year over the last few, years
what he's been able to do has been. Insane it's
kind of unprecedented as. Well now speaking of Unprecedented, kevin
you are a very accomplished. Player you are not like
me where you are. Drafting LIKE i live in Northeast.

(27:44):
Wisconsin i'm not drafting all These packers and succeeding this
year for, you a guy who has won all THESE
ffpc leagues over the. YEAR i can't remember a player
that we've had on this show that is drafting all
these players on his hometown. Team we've seen it, Before
like you, know, oh Maybe i'd lean towards my hometown.

(28:06):
Team but, man you are thirty six percent ownership On Lamar,
jackson twenty eight percent ownership On DeAndre, Hopkins Mark, andrews
Who John terry was asking us in the YouTube Chat Mark,
andrews twenty five percent ownership the freshly newly Contracted Rashad
bateman for The, ravens twenty three percent, Ownership Justice, hill

(28:30):
For god's, sake twenty. Percent Derek, henry you're at twenty.
PERCENT i, Mean isaiah likely nineteen. Percent you are as
close to being as all in on one team As
i've ever seen. Before it's clear that you're trying to Target.
RAVENS i know you're a, ravensman but you're also an
accomplished fantasy football, player separating your fandom from fantasy. Football

(28:52):
you are still all in On baltimore this. Year is
it because of the presence Of Lamar jackson or is
there something added to the gumbo this year In baltimore
that you are all about getting all These ravens whenever you.

Speaker 2 (29:06):
Can, WELL i think that it wouldn't necessarily matter That
i'm A ravens fan in the sense that from a fantasy,
perspective they're lighting it. UP i believe they're going to
be the highest scoring team in THE nfl most likely,
again AND i have a lot of faith in their,

(29:26):
system you, know one way or, another whether they're going
to run it, in whether they're going to pass it.
IN i, Mean lamar can do it. All AND i
think they're building pieces around him that are really. Great you,
know you Mentioned. FLOWERS i, mean If flowers went down last,
year if he doesn't go, DOWN i, mean he's like
maybe top five. RECEIVER i, mean you, know so it's

(29:48):
another one you can get kind of late again that
you talk about average draft position and things like. THAT i,
mean some of these legs with My Lamar Jackson INNIRSHIP
i got him in the third. Round i'm like, laughing
you know that he's still there in the third. Round
so And flowers is going pretty late, too you, know
like the, third fourth, round things like. That SO i

(30:09):
feel Like i'm getting value regardless of the fact that
it's the TEAM i root, for you, Know i'm also
rooting for doing well in fantasy football and earning, money you,
know that type of. THING i feel like it's, earning you.

Speaker 1 (30:23):
Know so.

Speaker 2 (30:25):
It does make a lot of sense to go For.
Ravens BUT i have other teams That i'm focusing a
little bit on too THAT i have faith in. TOO
i have a lot of faith in players from The,
eagles players from The, commanders players from The, chiefs to
name a, few and then The. Lions so you, KNOW

(30:46):
i have certain TEAMS i just think they're going to
be doing well on, offense so they're safe. Bets and
then there's just certain players that are, consistent you, know just,
regularly and a lot of them have dropped in the
draft where you, know they used to be like first,
rounders BUT i guess because of them getting, older people are, like,
OH i got to get somebody. YOUNGER i don't really

(31:07):
feel that. WAY i, mean if somebody's proven and they're
in the, leg they don't get hurt much or, whatever
they're going to keep. GOING i, mean why would they
stop doing. IT i think good example of that would
be Like Tony. Pollard you, know it's like he's like
you would think he was gonna be a little bit worn.
DOWN a big one Is Joe. Mixon you, know he

(31:28):
goes To houston and people are, like, oh he's probably,
done that's Why cincinnati let him, go and you, know
he lights it. Up SO i do lean. Veteran you're
probably gonna notice that if you're really studying my, teams
because you don't know what's going to happen with these.
ROOKIES i, mean sure they could blow it, up but
you have the running back rookies who they didn't have

(31:51):
to pass block at all in college or, whatever so
now they might not get on the field all the.
Time SO i feel a lot safer with the. Veterans
so that's one of the other THINGS i leaned, towards.

Speaker 4 (32:03):
Well Just, kevin just for our permanent record and for
those people that are keeping score at. HOME i really
do appreciate Your Lamar jackson affection what year did you graduate?
From university Of, Louisville.

Speaker 1 (32:15):
Maryland, Maryland, Maryland.

Speaker 4 (32:18):
Maryland he's not you, know It's louisville. Squere, yeah, yes all,
right so you love the. Veterans, now you didn't see this,
happening AND i want to know if it's still going to.
Happen AND i didn't see it happen. EITHER i never
accumulated Many John newsmith draft. Picks, HOWEVER i adopted some,

(32:40):
orphans AND i Found john New smith to be buried
on the roster of a lot of. Them AND i
kept him, because you, know a change of scenery and
a new. Opportunity it was his eighth year in the.
League eight, touchdowns eighty. Catches it was so. Unbelievable matter of,
fact if you put his first three years, together you
don't get eighty. Catches if you put the two groupings

(33:01):
of the next two years, together you don't get eighty.
Catches is that of vetur in your? Targeting is that
a guy that you you expect to come back and
have a year nine or did we just have a
late season one off From Jon?

Speaker 2 (33:14):
Smith, WELL i think he's gonna do. WELL i would
still put him up in my top six or seven tight.
ENDS i do not think he will repeat what he
did last, year BUT i just think he's gonna do.
WELL i just think the thing about The dolphins is
it was a little bit off of their norm to

(33:37):
be so heavy on their tight end when they got
such great, receivers Obviously Tyreek, hill and then their running
backs are really, great so you, know a Change Jayden.
Wright SO i think it's gonna be more, dispersed more
evenly this. Year SO i don't think necessarily think he's
gonna put up the same kind of points that he
did last, year BUT i still think he's gonna do.

(34:00):
Well and as you guys know IN, ffpc the tight
end has weighted and you'll notice the WAY i, DRAFT
i very heavily focus on getting the best tight ENDS
i can. Get you, Know i'll take them, early i'll
take them. Off and the thing that killed me last
year from winning potentially six, figures seven figures was THAT

(34:20):
i had too many injuries at tight end at the
end of the. Season And i'm not gonna let myself
get in that situation. Again So i'm taking extra tight
ends this.

Speaker 1 (34:31):
Year So, KEVIN i want to get back to The
ravens here because The ravens questions are coming fast and
furious on YouTube right. Now Tom, smith a good buddy
from THE ffpc and THE, kfffc, says how Did DeAndre
hopkins finish last? Year, Well, TOM i can tell you
that he finished with fifty six catches for just over
six hundred yards and he gets in the end zone five. Times,

(34:55):
kevin you Have DeAndre hopkins on a lot of your,
teams AND i guess perhaps the reason is everybody else
has left him for. Dead you look at the F
fpc three hundred thousand Dollars Best BALL adp. Tournament he's
wide receiver eighty at the eighteen ten right, Now clearly
you are are willing to invest hop In hopkins. Late

(35:15):
why should F fpc owners be willing to do the.

Speaker 2 (35:18):
Same, well first of, all again you're looking at a
veteran player who's been at the very very top of the.
Game so you, know you look at The chiefs last.
Year they didn't even really utilize him that, much and
a little bit they did got he caught the, ball you,
know and especially in the. ENZA i, mean he's still

(35:39):
got great. Hands you, know his speed is still there.
Too WHEN i read. Locally you, know he's Racing flowers
And jackson. STILL i, mean you, know even at his.
Age SO i think THAT i think he's a sleeper
and to a lot of, PEOPLE i think he's a.
Sleeper to, ME i think he's gonna get back some
of what he did when he was one of these

(36:00):
like top, one, two three in the whole. League you,
know abilities that he, has and The ravens because of
the dual threat with the running, game and everybody's so
focused On lamar and they're focused On. HENRY i, mean
he's gonna be wide open in the back of the end.
Zone and that's basically what happened With likely last. Year

(36:22):
so that was the other THING.

Speaker 4 (36:24):
I want to.

Speaker 1 (36:24):
Get i'm gonna get To likely in a. Second Here
hopkins right now in THE Ffpc Big gorilla is going
behind such stalwarts at wide receiver like One Dale, Robinson Adam,
Thielen Pat, Bryant Jalen, Nole Xavier, laguette and the currently
as of yet Unsigned Keenan. Allen you can Get hopkins
in the seventeenth round of The Big. Gorilla right, now

(36:45):
we we uh And Rick ross chiming in On hopkins
and thought he was the second best wide receiver in THE,
nfl just Behind DeVante. ADAMS i want to bring up
the the other thing That Scott hoyt has been talking
about YouTube right, now as long as we're talking about tight,
Ends scott wants to Know kevin is this the? Year?
Finally isaiah likely is the go to tight end Over Mark.

(37:06):
Andrews now bit a background on, this And scott can
correct me If i'm, Wrong But scott came on the
road of his high stakes slowdown shortly after the twenty
twenty four season, started And scott was a huge investor
in The stalwarts from the early games On thursday this
past year with The chiefs And ravens and then On
friday with The packers And, eagles and found himself very

(37:29):
high up in THE ffpc overall leaderboards the first few
weeks of the, season likely being one of his top.
Choices he also Got Jayden reid as. Well so he's
very interested into hearing your input on Whether likely is
the guy to own Over andrews this. Year bearing in
mind that the head coach or The, Ravens John harbaugh
said he Expects Isaiah likely to be An All pro this.

(37:53):
Season break this down for us, man because this could
shift fantasy careers and fantasy, seasons maybe for a million
dollar grand prize this year based on what you, say no, PRESSURE.

Speaker 2 (38:05):
I love. It, Well i'll tell you. This it's kind
of funny that we were just talking About hopkins BECAUSE
i actually think That hopkins is gonna take a little
bit Of likely thunder away at the end. ZONE i
think that's gonna be sort of a secret weapon, there
and there might be a little bit more focus on
the coverage With likely as. Well BUT i think the

(38:26):
big thing is that With andrews, again even Though i'm veteran,
heavy but there is also the possibility that he could get.
Hurt he's been hurt. Before, AGAIN i like to be
a little safer versus people that have been, injured you,
know a decent. Amount so the thing about that is
is if he goes, down, RIGHT i, mean you can

(38:47):
get likely pretty late in drafts right, Now so If
andrews goes, down likely will go off. Right so that's
gonna be. Huge even if What andrews is, healthy likely
still gonna do. Well, okay probably be you, know top,
fifteen maybe twenty in that. Range but If andrews goes,

(39:09):
Down i'd Say likely jumps up to like top five
tight end in THE nfl this.

Speaker 1 (39:13):
Year, really you, know you know what's wild about? This
AND i want to ask one More ravens, question But
i'm just gonna bring this up, here and Perhaps i'm
speaking out a, turn and feel free to call me
out on this IF i. Am Isaiah likely is right
now tight end seventeen at the eleven oh One farrell
And kevin He is going Behind Kyle, Pitts Jake, Ferguson Tunker,

(39:35):
Kraft Dalton, Kinkaid Colston, Lovelin Tyler, Warren Mark, Andrews david And,
djoku John Us, Smith Evan, INGRAM. Tj, Hockinson Travis, Kelcey Sam.
Laporta i'm gonna keep going up, Here George. Kittle i'm
gonna stop At George. Kittle and Maybe i'm being a
little bit bombastic here Because George kittle is the third
round pick And likely is going much lower than. That

(39:58):
but if everything were to all into place With baltimore this,
year let's Say andrews goes. Down let's Say andrews just
kind of takes a back seat To Isaiah. LIKELY i
could see him in a world non zero, chance not,
likely Maybe isaiah likely, Likely, yeah, exactly BUT i could
see likely if if something happens To, andrews which we've seen,

(40:21):
BEFORE i could see him up performing all these guys.
EASILY i could see him performing Over pitts And craft
and Can kill And loveland And, warren and then obviously
if something happens To, andrews he's gonna outperform. Him david
And jokoo is dealing With Jerry, Judy Cedric tillman the
rise of him as. Well you Have Jake ferguson not
only dealing With Ceedee, lamb but But George pickens as.

(40:45):
Well we can go up To john Hu smith who
maybe takes a back seat and things normalize With Tyreek
hill And Jalen. Waddell you can go up To Evan
ingram and know that they Have Bashall teuton And Travis
etn And Travis hunter And Brian thom. There you go
up TO. Tj, hockinson they Have, addison they Have Justin.
Jefferson i'm not saying it is probably going to, happen

(41:08):
or even better than a fifty percent chance of, happening
but when you're talking about a tight end in THE
ffpc tight end premium. Format isaiah likely at the eleven oh,
one the second half of THE Ffpc Big Gorilla TOURNAMENT.
Adp this is where he's. Going you have to take
him in the top ten. Rounds you could take him
eleventh or. LATER i think there is significant. Upside, kevin

(41:31):
you're A ravens. Guy do you agree with?

Speaker 2 (41:33):
That, yeah it's a no. BRAINER i, mean he's undervalue
in there so big time If andrews goes, down and
literally he could do better Than, kittle you, know If
andrews were to go. Down so it's huge upside and
it's very little risk at that point in the. Draft so,

(41:53):
YEAH i feel good About, likely especially where he's being.

Speaker 4 (41:56):
DRAFTED i am very uncomfortable BECAUSE I i'm never in
a room WHERE i am the least optimistic person about any,
subject and HERE i find myself treading water in the
deep end of this likely. Conversation AND i Think Booger
freeman is right on. Spot maybe for a week or,

(42:20):
two that's what it's always. Been AND i don't want
to repeat myself from last, week BUT i love the.
Enthusiasm i'm always on an upside of a. Player BUT
i see a lot of great tight end, talent and
this player is the same reason That flowers is never
going to catch ninety balls or a hundred balls. Regularly

(42:40):
he's never going to be A Tyreek hill because we're
dealing with a team that has just so many weapons
and a quarterback that will put his feet to work
and then they will salt away games With Derrick henry
bang bang. Bang it's not necessary for this player to
be a top five tight, end a top ten fifty tight,

(43:03):
end maybe even a top fifteen tight end to make
The Baltimore ravens odds on favorite to win THE afc
and likely to be in Your Super. Bowl but without
a sixty catch season from likely no matter what happens to.

Speaker 2 (43:16):
Him so BUT i think that the question to ask
yourself there, is, well Where's andrews's rank in your? Charge
so If andrews is like number, five number, six somewhere like,
that And andrews goes. DOWN i can tell you right
Now jackson has a relationship with.

Speaker 4 (43:33):
LIKELY i, mean similarity between these two players ends at
the definition of the position that there's no. Similarity after,
that they don't even run the same route, tree they
don't even line up at the same.

Speaker 1 (43:49):
Position very, okay all, Right So, pheryl this is worth
talking about. Here Mark andrews currently going at tight end
ten at the seven to. Ten let's say he goes.
Down let's let's, okay let's let's frame. This let's say
he goes down in the. Preseason for posterity's, sake let's
say he slips in the bathtub.

Speaker 4 (44:09):
Tonight out is there all these season ticket? Owners there's
no one to come help him get out of the.

Speaker 1 (44:17):
Tub all, Right, so knowing what you just said about
how different of players these guys, are how different they
are of tight ends in THE. Nfl knowing If andrews
is going to miss the whole season or significant, time
how much does that move up likely from his eleven
oh one? Spot THAT i, mean does he get up
into the seventh round area With andrews or or is

(44:40):
this a situation where Like flowers is the recipient of,
targets especially, signed the freshly re Signed Rashad bateman is
the recipient of these.

Speaker 4 (44:50):
Targets he caught a touchdown pass Against Kansas city On
thursday night and found himself in the second round WITH
us last. Year you know, it just, yes he will be.
OVERDRAFTED i think he's about right where he needs to.
Be What i'm, It it would depend on when that.
Happened if it happened right, now things might. Change they

(45:13):
might ask him to do more. Things BUT i don't
necessarily think in this. Offense you take him out of
this offense and you put him in a place where
you don't have those, Tools take him and put him
With take him and put him with The. Raiders he
looks more like a fantasy football tight end putting big numbers.
Up there's a lot of teams he can he. Can
he couldn't do What kittle does At San. Francisco couldn't

(45:35):
Even but the.

Speaker 2 (45:36):
Thing is is that he can get open and create
separation almost a little bit more like a, receiver.

Speaker 4 (45:44):
Which gives him a commonality with every other player that
we've been talking about on The ravens, tonight and every
other player that we've been talking about can do it
better than he.

Speaker 1 (45:54):
Can all, Right, so, Guys John terry chatting in on,
YouTube this whole analysis is like, saying, hey draft just
As hill Because Derek henry could get.

Speaker 4 (46:01):
Hurt john is captain obvious once. Again you know, what
and he's coming To kentucky is and you know you're
gonna Have you're gonna have To, Kevin you're gonna have
to come To kentucky, too because we're gonna continue this.
Conversation And i'm going to have you when you arrive
here your own special GIFT A Lamar, Jackson, jersey The

(46:23):
university Of, Louisville. Jersey there we. GO i, think thank,
You we're gonna be ready for. You you have gifts,
waiting sir In.

Speaker 1 (46:30):
Kentucky so but what's?

Speaker 2 (46:31):
Wrong so what's wrong with taking the handy the? Handcuff?
OKAY i mean that makes sense to.

Speaker 1 (46:37):
Me so So john is, saying like you could say
this for lots of, Backups Scott, hoyt and we could
get into this discussion as well to, Tonight, kevin who's
the best backup tight? End in other, words if any
of the top tight ends goes, down who's the best?
Backup Adam hahn is chiming in Like lamar And henry
are the ravens to roster. HERE i get, That but
at the same, time, GUYS i. Can't joe Del Zon

(47:01):
arrow The book Of Baker boy has said there is
no such thing as a bad. Pick after the tenth,
round eleven oh one is Where isaiah likely is. Going
at that, POINT i stop looking at his. DOWNSIDE i
stopped looking right, before AND i just look at his,
ceiling and maybe the ceiling never. Hits maybe Maybe andrews
goes down and likely is like a fringe top, twelve

(47:23):
top fifteen tight. End, okay that's still a Bet i'm
willing to make at that. POINT i think there's something.
THERE i think it's something that we need to be
looking at and tight end premium, leagues And i'll leave
it at.

Speaker 4 (47:35):
That. Clearly everybody go, ahead.

Speaker 2 (47:37):
You, know so figure best. Ball, Right so if you're
talking the eleventh round and you're trying to draft, evenly
now you have two players at every position, already which
are your main. Starters so you're really talking, about you,
know a backup anyways at that point as far as
your fantasy roster goes.

Speaker 1 (47:55):
Right which is, fine and the other the last THING
i want to point out, here And Adam hank clearly
pointing this. Out everybody's sick of us talking About.

Speaker 2 (48:03):
Ravens we can't talk about other teams and be.

Speaker 1 (48:08):
Like, yeah we can't and and. LISTEN i am nothing
but a host who wants to appease his. Audience so
let me ask you this About, Baltimore, kevin what why
are you not Drafting Tyler? Loop you Have Tyler loop
on one, team the guy who is the heir apparent

(48:29):
For Justin tucker And. Baltimore are you not a believer in?
Him as we get our kicker question out of the, way.

Speaker 2 (48:36):
YEAH i know everybody wants to talk about the. Kickers
but here's the. THING i do mostly best. Ball so
if you look at my array of fantasy, TEAMS i
am very heavy best ball where there's no. Kicker, okay
so that's part of the.

Speaker 1 (48:54):
Reason what do you think About Tyler loop in a
vacuum for fantasy this?

Speaker 2 (48:57):
Year and so, AGAIN I i think you could get
him later than he should. BE i think he's gonna
do really pretty close to What tucker would have put. Up,
ANYWAYS i, mean the kids got, talent, yeah and they're
definitely gonna have kicking. Situations and even if all they're
doing is scoring, touchdowns is going to get a lot
of extra. Points BECAUSE i, believe you, know this is

(49:19):
my bold. STATEMENT i believe that The ravens are going
to average goose to forty points a game this.

Speaker 4 (49:23):
Year you, Know, balky when, listeners when listeners are tired
of hearing content about The, ravens you know what you
should treat them. To what's that there's a question From?
Cleveland Think i'm something From. Cleveland let's just go To
cleveland if we're tired of the Rev here's the.

Speaker 1 (49:41):
Thing and like, Obviously, kevin you saw the QUESTIONS i sent.
You you, KNOW i looked over your ownership or. Whatever
so this is a leading question. Here but is there
a pass catcher In cleveland right, now knowing the quarterback,
situation knowing about all the pass catchers that they, have
is there one pass, catcher be it a running, back
a wide, receiver or a tight end that you were

(50:02):
perhaps like better than some of the other guys In
cleveland right?

Speaker 2 (50:06):
Now, WELL i still taking To djoku BECAUSE i mean
the guy looks like The. HULK i, mean you, KNOW
i mean he's pretty hard to. TACKLE i, think you, Know,
SO i think the thing there is, is no matter
how bad the quarterback, IS i think that guy is
going to make some, plays you. Know and Then i'd, Say,
JUDY i Mean judy at some point last. YEAR i

(50:30):
remember him just going. NUTS i mean he was open
like and they were just going to him every. Time
SO i think That judy still has. Value so it's
one of these things where you have a. TEAM i
don't Think cleveland is going to do very well this
year as as real football, GOES nfl football, goes but
there's always going to be some sort of fantasy you,

(50:52):
know stand out on every. Team every team's going to
have something that's decent in. Fantasy SO i would say
the safest bed in THE djoku second that that would Be.

Speaker 4 (51:00):
Judy let's stay in THE dc metro. Area then then
let's move over to the. Commander, well let's just talk
to me About Brian. Robinson Brian robinson no ferstwhile sometimes
partner In Las. Vegas you KNOW jr fit AND. Jr
will start whispering in my. Ear maybe we should start

(51:21):
looking At Brian robertson later in the. Draft maybe we
shouldtart looking At Brian. Robinson maybe you know he is
fitting proper to whisper that in my ear again continually this, year.

Speaker 2 (51:32):
Well again where he's drafting on, average he's there's over
twenty running backs already taken h before. Him its, like
so why? NOT i, mean he is their lead running,
back you, know THE i mean another guy like you
look at The chiefs and With pacheco and he's dropping
because it's, like, oh well they got five running backs over. There,
now well he's still gonna be the primary. Back. NOW

(51:53):
i do Draft Cream hunt a, lot so you'll notice
That i'm happy on that because it seems like they're
going to give it to him when they get close
to the end. Zone but you, know back to The,
COMMANDERS i think The commanders could potentially be the second
highest scoring. Team So i'm loving it in The Baltimore
washington area that we have such great football. Here but

(52:14):
again from a fantasy, perspective you, know WHEN i can't Get,
Jackson i'm Taking daniels so that that's my next. Quarterback
and you, know even though he's only going what's as
only as the second, year BUT i just think the
way it's set up for him is looking really. Nice
so and they do you think about the teams that
hand it off to their running back of the goal,

(52:36):
line and then you think about the teams that just
let the quarterback poach the. Touchdowns from the running back
at the goal, line you, know Like Josh. Allen so
The commanders will Give Brian robinson the ball inside the
ten yard. Line SO i think he's still got value
and again especially where he's currently being.

Speaker 1 (52:55):
Drafted so so that's that's The robinson report. Here you
Mentioned Kareem hunt in your, answer AND i want to
get your thoughts on that. Backfield, Obviously pacheco people are
very excited About Rashard smith obviously still after THE nfl.
Draft the way that you're handling The chiefs, backfield for,

(53:15):
you it's like Sprinkling Kareem hunt and then that's.

Speaker 2 (53:18):
It, well, YEAH i Mean i'm not huge on The chiefs, Backfield,
OKAY i do think most of the touchdowns are going
to be passing touchdowns for, them you, Know, KELSEY i
think is kind of relegated to more just touchdown. Dependency you,
KNOW i don't think he's gonna get like a ton
of catches in the middle of. Field BUT i am

(53:40):
high on The chiefs AND i am high on my. Homes,
again he's drafting way, lower really kind of THAN i
think he should be because you're looking at as. RECEIVERS i,
mean now That Rajie rice is. Healthy Xavier worthy is a.
Superstar Rajie rice is a. Superstar Hollywood, brown you, know
he's like an. Afterthought but if he's, healthy he can

(54:00):
get open and be a deep, threat and then they,
have you, know the great tight. End SO i think
The chiefs are going to put up a lot more
points than people you know saw last. Year they saw
him struggle a lot yes last, year and one of
the big problems was the offensive, line and you know
they addressed that in the. Draft so If mahomes has,

(54:21):
time you know it's gonna be a different. Story SO
i actually think they're gonna do a lot. BETTER i
like fantasy players for, them BUT i would kind of
lean more away from the running. Backs the thing is
With Kareem. HUNT i, Mean i'm getting in with like
the last pick in the, draft so you know it's,
like well why.

Speaker 1 (54:39):
Not, Okay so so that's That's Kareem.

Speaker 4 (54:44):
Hunt.

Speaker 1 (54:46):
Ferrel we've got a. Question, yeah we've kind of picked
the brain of Of kevin About Lamar. Jackson there are
other elite quarterbacks out.

Speaker 4 (54:54):
There there Are in regards to those elite, Quarterbacks i'm
wondering if you're always if you don't come away With?
Jackson are you always in every format you play and
the most successfully and most interestingly redraft in THE ffpc main,
event are you coming away with an elite quarterback on your.

Speaker 2 (55:18):
Team i'm one of the fancy players out. THERE i
know there's a lot of people they wait a long
time on quarterback because obviously, quarterbacks you, know the twentieth
quarterback is probably going to put up similar numbers to
like the tenth, Quarterback SO i get. It but IF
i can get an elite quarterback and an elite tight,

(55:39):
end and especially just the way THE ffpc you, know
is set up to, Be i'm gonna take them a
little extra.

Speaker 1 (55:48):
Early So.

Speaker 3 (55:50):
I'm.

Speaker 2 (55:51):
NOT i just feel like there's this rush on the
receivers and the running backs in the first, couple you,
know two three rounds so heavy that you can get
just like an amazing quarterback with a much later, picked
and REALLY i think they should. Be that's Why i'm
SAYING i even Got Lamar jackson in the third round
in a couple of these, drafts so you, know it

(56:12):
could be. Said people are gonna, Say, Okay Josh, Allen Jane,
Daniels Lamar, jackson but they're pretty clearly the top three
quarterbacks in the league right. Now and Then Jane daniels
IS i, Mean i'm. Sorry After Jane, Daniels i'd, say
you Have, Mahomes burrow And. Hurts you, know they're the second.
Tier and then if you can't get any of those,

(56:33):
six THEN i think you can. Wait and you, know
then you, know just pick receivers and running backs and
all that.

Speaker 1 (56:39):
Earlier all, Right so there's a few THINGS i want
to get to on YouTube right. Now we'll go To
Adam han. First we'll get To John terry in a.
Second adam wants to Know kevin is there a ZERO
qb strategy? Currently he is in a big gorilla draft
with THE. Ffpc he hasn't taken a quarterback through round.
Twelve is there something to be said for? That AND

(56:59):
i will for a lot of the Pundits i've been
listening to who drafted the, ffpcuh they have said, this
ZERO qb is a? Thing, Kevin is ZERO qb a
thing for you this?

Speaker 2 (57:12):
Year, well IF i can't get one of those first
five or six THAT i, said then, YEAH i can wait.
FOREVER i, MEAN i would rather say you guys were
talking About Anthony richardson. EARLIER i know there's a big
discussion about. THAT i, mean, personally i'd pretty much take
any other starting quarterback over, him AND i think Eventually
Daniel jones is gonna end up starting there one way or.

Speaker 4 (57:32):
Another whether you wouldn't Take Daniel jones, either, YEAH i.

Speaker 2 (57:36):
DON'T i don't like them, period you. Know so, yeah
you're right about. That but you, know Like Sam, darnold
he's going he's like one of the last quarterbacks. GOING i,
mean you, know and now of course because Of Aaron rodgers,
signing he's gonna move, up you know a little bit,
Anyway so there's. That but, yeah SO i can see

(57:57):
the strategy for the zero. QUARTERBACK i could see that,
work BUT i think it's silly to pass On Lamar,
Jackson Josh, Allen Jaydon daniels and late in the second
round when you, know you know they're going to be
superstars this.

Speaker 4 (58:13):
Year would you love that zero quarterback strategy was beginning
to get followers until about three years, ago when if
you didn't have a good, quarterback you were you were basically.

Speaker 1 (58:23):
Well and And ferrell to that, Point, kevin would you
Include Jalen hurts on that list as, well with those
other elite.

Speaker 2 (58:29):
Quarterbacks, YEAH I i. DO i, mean, YEAH i feel
very safe With Jalen, hurts you. Know so Again i'm
not gonna go past like IF i have. Opportunities and,
actually if you look at some of my, legs by the,
WAY i Have hurts as my second. Quarterback oh, yeah
so now this is a love basketball and it's super. Flex,

(58:52):
yeah so IF i can do it at super, flex
that's like. Instantaneous. Yeah but even in, bestball you, know
why not you gonna need another quarterback. Anyways so, again
you can still get some decent you, know running backs and.
Receivers you're waiting a couple extra rounds or, whatever but
they're they're still pretty. Close and you, know once you

(59:14):
get past the top ten your receivers in the WHOLE
nfl and the top ten running backs in the WHOLE,
nfl you, know then it's somewhat. Close SO i do
see a strategy that's working for me because not a
lot of drafters are doing it this. Way they're gonna
skip getting a second quarterback for a, while SO i
can get A, hurtz A, Burrow mahomes you'll see that

(59:35):
and a lot where they're my second.

Speaker 1 (59:37):
QUARTERBACK i want to ask you this to focusing on tight.
Ends John, terry who's on the show just a few weeks,
ago wants to know a tight end question. Here where
are you in drafting Brock bauers and where are you
in Drafting trade McBride in THE Ffpc Big Gorilla. Kevin
as you, Know bowers is the one oh six as

(59:58):
tight end. One trey McBride is the t and. Two
you can get him on average at one. Eleven if
you do have a mid first round or a late
first round, pick you looking at either of these.

Speaker 2 (01:00:08):
Guys SO i definitely thought about it for a bit With,
bowers BUT i feel like it's a little bit too,
high you. KNOW i, mean Like Seedee. Lamb you can Get,
barkley you can Get, gibbs you can Get Justin jefferson

(01:00:29):
at the same point that some people are Taking bowers right.
Now so for, ME i mean maybe IF i have
the eighth, Pick i'll Take bowers if he's still sitting there. Now,
McBride on the other, hand If i'm at the wheel
at the end with the twelfth, Pick i'm gonna take

(01:00:51):
McBride as one of my. Two you, know if he's,
THERE i actually think there's a small. POSSIBILITY i, mean you,
know fingers crossed On Kyler murray having a better year this,
year BUT i think there's a small possibility McBride might
even do more Than. BOWERS i know a lot of
people are going to disagree with, that BUT i think
McBride And ham are really close and it just has

(01:01:12):
to do with the quarterback play for that to make
the difference.

Speaker 1 (01:01:15):
There shout out To Phil, houghton who is hanging out,
Tonight Phil, hooton if that name sounds. Familiar. Players he
won THE ffpc main event in twenty twenty and clearly
he's attributing a lot of that to ingesting and consuming
as much high stakes fantasy football or content as possible
so he can get back on the top in twenty twenty.

(01:01:37):
Five listening To Kevin horowitz, tonight, parrel why don't we
throw one final question To kevin as we are fast
running out of time, tonight.

Speaker 4 (01:01:45):
My final question could be we could actually have a
second part of that, question but we're running out of.
Times here's my. Question give me a guy that you're
going to live with on every team Besides Lamar, jackson
the guy you, love they must have. Player he can
be a, sleeper or he can be one of your
elite players that you're actually seeking. Out and give me

(01:02:06):
a guy then that you just don't want on your,
squad a player that's likely being pushed up the boards
and The Darren armandi Of Fantasy, mojo but it's not
a guy for. You and then tell me about The
Baltimore ravens defense and specialty as the assignments THAT i.

Speaker 2 (01:02:25):
Had for, well let me hit question two before question. One,
so AND i hate saying it on some, level BUT
i can hint it at this. Earlier i'm not going
to take McCaffrey in the, top you, know ten twelve
picks because even though there's a chance he could leave
THE nfl again in, rushing but there's a much better

(01:02:45):
chance in my mind that he's going to get hurt.
Again no McCaffrey for, you, Right so that's that's that
as far as the, PLAYER i definitely want to, have you,
know an elite. PLAYER i, MEAN i think one thing
that's interesting right now is how far Seedy lamb is.
Falling AND i think it's a big deal that they Got. Pickens,

(01:03:06):
YEAH i Mean pickens is a great, receiver don't get me.
Wrong BUT i actually think that's gonna Give lamb more
targets BECAUSE i think that now you can't just automatically Double.
Lamb they got, it like account For pickens a little.
Bit and If Dak prescott is healthy all, year another
guy get worried about getting. Hurt but if he's, healthy
him And lamb all day. Long, Right so If, LAMB

(01:03:29):
i can Get lamb with the six or seventh pick
in the, draft and in some WAYS i think he
could be number two or number. Three SO i Like.
Lamb and then you, said what was the third? Question?
SORRY i lost that. One. Defense, yeah SO i love
The ravens defense. TOO i, mean if you look at
my special, teams, yeah well so if you look at

(01:03:53):
MY i Like, DENVER i Like. PHILLY i Like. Denver
okay one and, TWO i would Go ravens.

Speaker 1 (01:04:01):
Three, okay all.

Speaker 2 (01:04:02):
Right m.

Speaker 4 (01:04:03):
Hm so you know The ravens are gonna average close
to forty points a game this, year and they're gonna
have the number three, defense which means the teams that
are trying to play catch up are gonnail. Miserably it
is A Baltimore ravens, year but it's our.

Speaker 1 (01:04:17):
Year maybe not THAT i want to turn this into
A ravens show more so than it already is. Not
baltimore taken the first round of THE Nfl Draft Malachi
starks From, georgia so, literally another playmaking safety that could
play center, field that could turn interceptions into, touchdowns scoops
and scores could happen With starks as. WELL i don't, know,

(01:04:37):
man it just seems like The ravens reload every. YEAR
i think you could do a lot. Worse, uh The
ravens are. Frightening The ravens are frightening for.

Speaker 2 (01:04:45):
The rest of the league because the defense is gonna
be elite, Okay and it really wasn't okay the last
couple of, years and they had to do it more with.
Offense now it's gonna be all day. Long they can
score on offense and they're not gonna give up a
lot of points on. Defense so you, know now the
only question is, right but this doesn't matter fantasy. Wise

(01:05:08):
the only question is Is lamar gonna do it in the?
Playoffs as far as real.

Speaker 4 (01:05:13):
You, KNOW i think you're gonna win nineteen regular season
games because you're gonna get two bonus games just. Nineteen,
yeah you're gonna get two bonus wins just for the dominant.
Aspect that would be a new league. Rule they'll vote
that in at the meeting at the leagues meeting down In.
October down there In, florida.

Speaker 1 (01:05:30):
The ravens win nineteen leagues or nineteen games in the
regular season this, year And Cleveland brown's get demoted to THE. Ufl,
clear there we. GO i refresh my, Memory. KEVIN i
don't know this. Offhand do you play any dynasty Or?

Speaker 2 (01:05:46):
No, NO i actually don't do any, dynasty BUT i
am kind of GOING i guess there's a few guys out,
there But i'm kind of going for Like Guinness Booker
world records for how Many Best ball TEAMS i. HAVE i,
mean we're three months before the season begins AND i
currently have two hundred and seventeen. Teams, Bravo. Bravo, Yeah i'm.

(01:06:08):
In i'm in on it this.

Speaker 1 (01:06:09):
Year but that's a great thing About Best ball because
you can you can spend all your time drafting and
then you don't have to worry about it once the
season starts like it sets out. There there's no there's
no lineup. Management by the, way in case anybody's, wondering
THE ffpc as two F fpc best ball tournaments available
is both Super flex and regular right. Now three hundred
thousand dollars and one hundred thousand dollars grand, prizes one

(01:06:30):
hundred and twenty five dollars and thirty five dollars, entry.
Respectively register for those at MY ffpc dot. Com Corey.
Walters i'll answer your question here in a second in
regards To Dynasty, superflex but BEFORE i do, THAT i
want to thank our guests for coming on. Tonight Kevin

larger number after twenty twenty five with all the leagues

Speaker 1 (01:07:41):
Good enjoy your, weekend my.

Speaker 2 (01:07:42):
Friend all, right take, Care thank.

Speaker 1 (01:07:44):
You that is that Is Kevin, Horwitz ladies and, gentlemen
the eight time F Fpc league, champ joining us on
the show. Tonight, farrell you Played. DYNASTY i Played. Dynasty
i'll try to. Answer Corey walter succes same with. Me
But corey is asking In Dynasty. Superflex he needs a second, quarterback,
obviously which is tantamount to success In Dynasty superflex. Leagues

(01:08:08):
he also needs another running. Back if he is looking
to Trade Saquon barkley to get said second quarterback and
another running, back what should he be looking for? Again
this is kind of in the eye of the, beholder
But i'd be looking for somewhere in the neighborhood of
a top twenty, quarterback perhaps on the younger, side and
then maybe a top fifteen running. BACK i don't. KNOW i,

(01:08:29):
Mean i'm speaking in sort of and again on the
younger side with the running back as. Well we're speaking
kind of in the. MATRIX i don't know what you
can get in your, league BUT i THINK i would
start there and then shoot upward and then sort of
fall back on. THAT i wouldn't go much lower than.

Speaker 3 (01:08:46):
That.

Speaker 1 (01:08:46):
FARRELL i don't know if you have any thoughts on.

Speaker 4 (01:08:47):
This my thoughts are is a cautionary tale that our
Beloved corey should not consider Trading Sigomon.

Speaker 2 (01:08:54):
Barkley he should go to.

Speaker 4 (01:08:55):
YouTube and see young son tells general. Manner you're not to,
trade say correct or not to not to let him
go to free. Agency, no, sir you. Don't you don't
want to do. That there's no there's no future in.
That we've had a really GREAT uh chat tonight and
a lot of a lot of new guys dropping. IN

(01:09:17):
i really like this contribution from From Kevin. HAN i
thought he did a great job. There there's there's hockey
coming in here telling us a seventy six. Days he can't.
Wait you. Know one of the THINGS i would say
To kevin uh, uh, say our good, friend Mister, hawn

(01:09:39):
he had up he had up a post About patrick
mahomes success rate in a in a. Pocket do you
recall that With, yeah it's it's it's right. There that's
a fantasy football stat that we can that we can
look away. FROM i think it's kind of like unrealized air.

(01:10:03):
Yards oh, yeah with a clean. Pocket why Does mahomes
have a clean? Pocket, well it's probably it's probably when
it was compromising his feet and they didn't think he
could move that well and they only rushed three and
they dropped a linebacker and put in an extra safety
or maybe a. Corner all these receivers were hurting this
year AND i of them could get. Open the offensive

(01:10:23):
line was, Hurting the clean pocket didn't stay clean too,
long and you, know it was a rough. Year it's
a rough year if you take you, know we have
a guest on tonight that obviously knows this football and
knows how to. Win there were games When kelsey was targeted, thirteen, thirteen, sixteen,
thirteen ten times during the. Year this Because kelsey is

(01:10:45):
the only guy that was trying to get. Open and
if you Remember, kelsey towards the end of some of those,
games he was completely. Spent he could barely finish the.
Route and it's just the world's going to be different
can the city this. Year SO i would look At
mahomes differently with the, healed AND i WOULDN'T i wouldn't

(01:11:07):
let stats overrule what because every one of these guys
Devote it's just like our guests. Tonight every one of
these guys devote a great deal of their time watching,
football and they're smarter with their eyes than what the
statisticians are with the numbers that they look. Up that's
What i'm, SAYING.

Speaker 1 (01:11:24):
I think the most if we're going to include a
stat and this is not a non this is not a.
Fantasy adam Halln. Yeah Patrick mahomes is going as quarterback
six right, now which to me is interesting when you
consider the fact that quarterback six and THE Ffpc Big
gorilla is two and a half rounds after quarterback five

(01:11:46):
With Joe, burrow and it's also a round and a
half earlier Than quarterback seven With Baker. Mayfield so he's
kind of on an island.

Speaker 4 (01:11:55):
There and if you.

Speaker 1 (01:11:56):
Want, to if you want to pick him a little bit,
higher that's. Cool if we want to take advantage if
he slips a little, bit that's cool. Too i'm kind
OF i don't want to Say I'm switzerland With Patrick. Mahomes,
yeah you can tell yourself the story either way With
mahomes in twenty twenty. Five as far as how well
he's going to do For fantasy you, know and.

Speaker 4 (01:12:15):
Yeah And i'm. NOT i think that's a very good.
Assessment Richard gross just came in with something really really good.
Here throw that one.

Speaker 1 (01:12:24):
Up, YEP i got it right.

Speaker 4 (01:12:25):
Here kelsey changed his workouts since he started dating Swift.
BOY i would, too you, KNOW i would CHANGE i
would change a lot of things IF i started Dating.

Speaker 1 (01:12:34):
Swiftly Eric ferrell we covered on the on the And
i'll get into this in a second on THE Ffpc
Insider access show last. Night and this could be a fake,
NAME i don't, know but we had a live draft
theogremager From Fantasy Points hop To. Board our good Buddy
Dave turp was on as. Well the player with the
number one pick in the draft we covered last. Night

(01:12:55):
his name was Not Taylor, swift he Was Tyler. Swift
AND i don't think he Got Travis kelcey in the
draft last. Night very interesting stuff as. Well another thing
That Adam hank is pointing Out mahomes has not been
good for consecutive. Years The chiefs made The Super bowl
in spite of, him not because of. HIM i think
they made The Super, bowl especially last, year because of two.

(01:13:16):
THINGS i think the defense was really really, good AND
i think that fortune just favored him last year.

Speaker 4 (01:13:21):
Something AND i think if When adam comes on the
show as a, guest, YEAH i, will we won't have
to ask him the, question, Right, no we.

Speaker 1 (01:13:29):
Won't we, know, yeah which is good stuff as. Well
John terry is saying more hip thrust For travis Kelce.

Speaker 4 (01:13:38):
Oh my, goodness.

Speaker 1 (01:13:41):
It was uncalled. For and on that, note we will
put a bow on the show, tonight but not before
we tell everybody about The Kentucky Fantasy Football State championship
at kffsc dot. Com pharrelln just figuring this out right.
Now the one hundred Dollars sweet sixteen championship in The
Bonte Macdivision i'm on the, clock And i've been on

on in the fantasy football industry over the last forty eight.

(01:22:20):
HOURS i was doing The High stakes or excuse, me
The Insider Access show last, night and about fifteen minutes
into the, SHOW i caught wind ON x that a
former co host Of The Insider Access, Show Anthony servino
From Rotal, wire had actually passed Away wednesday this, week

(01:22:40):
and he was way too, young younger than me actually
forty years. Old leaves behind a wife and a ten
year old. Son i'll Just i'll read What Rotal wire
had to say about it ON x BECAUSE i think
they put it, very very. Succinctly we are heartbroken by
the passing Of Anthony. Servino known to many as at

(01:23:02):
The REAL Nfl, Guru anthony was a passionate fantasy football
voice and a friend of so many in the. Community
he brought energy and authenticity to everything he. Did more
than a, creator he was a devoted, husband loving, father
and true.

Speaker 4 (01:23:16):
Supporter of this.

Speaker 1 (01:23:17):
Space our thoughts are with his loved, ones especially his
wife and, son during this incredibly difficult. Time please consider
donating To anthony's family via GoFundMe and the link is
in a pin tweet x dot com slash Rot It's
rota wires pin tweet right. Now i'll just say this
AND i don't you, Know Derek brown had some really

(01:23:40):
good words to say in regards to this a passing
For Anthony, Cervino SO i DON'T i don't really want.
To august eighth of twenty twenty, Four anthony hosted The
The High Stakes Fantasy football show on The Better Sports

(01:24:03):
network with, me and it was really the longest CONVERSATION
i had with him two, hours WHICH i think is
par for the course with a lot of people who
host that show with. ME a lot of TIMES i
don't have the opportunity to hang out and have long
conversations outside that. Show But anthony was very willing to
come on the show with. Me less than ten months
ago he hosted, it he was doing road.

Speaker 4 (01:24:25):
A, wire.

Speaker 1 (01:24:26):
A podcast and shows ON x and YouTube With Jim,
coventry who co hosted the show with. Me just a
couple of weeks, ago so this really caught me off.
GUARD i just said this ON x last, NIGHT rip
to a really cool, guy a hard, worker and a
PERSON i enjoyed spending time. With, anthony AND i did
a show less than ten months, ago and his passion

(01:24:47):
and his work ethics stood out. Incredibly prayers up for
his wife and. Son you're the, Man. ANTHONY i didn't
know him all that, well BUT i do consider him a.
FRIEND i think he considered considered me a friend as.
Well really cool And i'm not going to be able
to do justice for the impact that he had on this,
plane on this, earth especially WHEN i consider THAT i

(01:25:09):
never hung out with with him and his wife and his.
KID i just know that their heartbroken right. Now if
you have the chance to donate to the, GoFundMe just
go to x dot com slash rode. Wire the link
is right on there at THE. Ffpc my account has
retweeted it as, well so you can check that out.
There it hits home a little bit Because anthony was

(01:25:31):
five years younger than, me and this. Comes his passing
came a little bit less than two weeks before the
anniversary of less than a year, AGO i lost my
brother at age forty three in Mid june of last.
Year SO i would just say this And i'm, okay

(01:25:53):
and it's. Fine you, know send your prayers up and
thoughts up to The cervino family because they definitely need
him right. Now i'll just say, this AND i say,
this every, time tell the people around you that are
close to you that you love. Them overdo, it give
him overkill on. That every time you hug, him hug
him a little bit. Tighter you just never. Know and

(01:26:13):
we already Miss. Anthony his contribution to the space was,
great but more than his contribution to fantasy football was
his contribution to his family and his. Friends you have
to go no further THAN x to find out the
outpouring of people that he helped get started in this.
Industry Casey Kasem Derek BROWN i mentioned as. Well we

(01:26:37):
all owe a certain debt To Anthony servino and we
will always miss, him and then it's going to be
a little bit hollow going. Forward so support his family
if you can as you as you can see. Fit Rip.
