What's up everybody? Welcome into the FanDuel Sunday Night mock draft stream. I'm your host Simon joined as always by my co-host John Luke. What's up, JL? What up? You doing all right today? I'm doing great. I'm doing fantastic. How are you doing, Simon? I'm doing pretty good. I'm doing pretty good. It's the last Sunday before we've got NFL football, so I think I'm going to be doing a little bit better next this time next week whenever instead of mock draft and we're on here breaking down the games that have gone down that so far that day. I can't wait for some football. God, I feel like we've just been talking like hypothetical football for like six months and I cannot wait for it to be real football that we're talking about instead like like actual places that have just a nation instead of just are they going to do this? This is why I think they're going to do this. We'll see something. We'll have some some substance to back it up or just immediately proven wrong. And I don't even care if that's the case. I just I just want to see it like Evans just absolutely forgot how to play football in the offseason.  I think the only one that would destroy me more is if like immediately Valus Jones is the wide receiver one in Chicago and Darnell Mooney is riding the bench or is like a secondary wide receiving like that one would hurt. But if it happens, it happens. And then we'll know we got some people in the chat ready for today's show. Geek hippie. What's up? This looks like the show is running lair. It is there. Justin, what's up? Welcome and glad to have you in here just in Carter. See, Carter's my kind of guy. He sees a typo. He calls out a typo. That's that joke never gets old. Any time jail sends me a message with a typo and it doesn't matter how long or serious the message was, you could have been sending me something like explaining like your house burnt down and your fiance left you. My grandma just said if you misspelled one word in there, the response would first just be the word that you misspelled before I responded to anything else. My grandma just dipped. Yeah, I would just immediately said, Depp, Depp, Depp. Missus, respect you for it. It's a three minutes late right on time. That's right. We are right on time late. And hi, yo. Hello. Hello, Mr. Scampers. What's up? Welcome in. And Dave said, I'm honestly bummed. I liked talking about Gabe Davis. Yeah, before we actually have to see Dave Davis on the football game in the top of the game. Dave Davis slander about it. I'm I'm not ready to slander him, but I do think it's going to be more fun to hype him up in the off season and it is going to be to have him on your fantasy teams. Yes, like I think the people that were hyping up gave Davis their fun is ending next week. They'll have fun a couple of weeks this year, whenever he puts up like a two, three touchdown game. But they're not going to have fun every single week of the season. Geeks that I had to do a few CFL games to satisfy my Jones in for NFL football. Jones and scratch the same itch, though. The that football itch finally got scratched by that West Virginia pick game for me. You know what I mean? Like there's been other football we could have watched that. I watched Nebraska lose to Northwestern and Dublin, like the big kickoff game. But the first time I felt like football is back, baby, was that WV. Was back, baby. Football is back, baby. And Mr. Scampers and Dane, that was quite rude to half a fantasy. A half a fantasy. Twitter is really mad at you. No, I'm about it. Guys, today we are doing a half PPR mock draft and jail and I are going to be following some rules again. We've got another wheel set up for today, but it's a little bit different than last time. It's not all of the NFL teams. What we did is every positional spot on your roster got one chunk on the wheel. So there's only one quarterback spot. So you got one quarterback spot on there, two running back spots on this wheel, three wide receiver spots on this wheel, one tight end and then two flex spots. So you can draft a running back wide receiver or tight end. If you land on that, there's some other funny business tucked in there as well. Like draft a player from a bird team draft, the player from a non animal team draft a rookie. So we've got some draft a player on a new NFL team is another one that we have in there. So we are going to be following those rules. If you guys want to follow those as well, I'm going to put the wheel in the chat. Oh, you got it, Dale. Dale is going to put the wheel in the chat for you. If you want to draft with us using those funny rules today, the draft order has already been decided and we're going to start it in a little bit before we do that, though, I wanted to remind everybody of a couple of things. First and foremost, if you're enjoying what we're doing here, if you like drafting with us, go ahead and smash the like button on this video. Make sure you hit it as hard as you can. We can feel it. So if you hit it hard, it'll be like a like a firm spanking on the bottom every time you and we love our firm spanking. Oh, we love them so much after you do that. Make sure you hit the subscribe button. Not as hard because we just got spanked with the like button. So just one gently. We're going to be a little subscriber is way more sensitive. It's so much more sensitive. Now, guys, after you do that, make sure you're checking out Fanduil across all other social platforms. We're talking Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok. They're at Fanduil on all of those. And they have a whole team of awesome content creators. So you guys win some money and win your leagues. It's money, please money, please. I was watching a movie. I finally watched Dale. It's been on my list. I probably have brought it up like weekly for since the day it came out, everything everywhere once, Anchorman. I've been bringing Anchorman up weekly, but everything everywhere all at once. And when Mona Lisa, AKA I think her name is Jenny Slate, right? Slate, whatever she showed up in that movie. I let out an audible yell. I was so excited. Like, and she plays a similar character to Mona Lisa. Just everything that girl does is hilarious. We were Maria and I were watching TV yesterday and we saw a commercial with Ben Schwartz and Jenny Slate, AKA Jean Ralphio and Mona Lisa. So good. You are funny. Anything they do will be funny. What were they advertising? Aha, it's like a seltzer. And then everything they said that had aha mixed into it. Aha, I drink a seltzer if they tried to sell it to me. Honestly, whatever they were probably buying it. Like, if I see that ad, it doesn't matter what it is. I'm probably like googling it immediately to go purchase that item. We need some we need some more middle ditch and shorts. That's what we need. We do also geek if he said, wait, what? We're doing a mock draft with funny rules. I feel like that's just an appropriate reaction to our stream. Maybe that was to the spanking comment. Who knows? It must have been a spanking comment. I bet it was the draft rules right there. Jay Wall in here letting us know his first spin was a free square.  Do you want to go ahead and do our first our first spins? We got five minutes. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Our first spins down. I've got the first pick. So I'm going to spin mine first jail and I'm selfish. That's and it looks like. Hey, that works out pretty good. Having the running back. I have pretty good running back. Jail, let's see what you got to do with your first pick. Oh, God. Come on. Why do you see that receiver? You know what? That's all right. So I got to draft your running back first overall. You got to draft a wide receiver. Some of the second overall pick. Can you? Yeah, right, Jail. Name name one wide receiver. I just went to go cover the ones on the screen with my hand.  Oh, I sorted by name on accident. How do I un-sort by name? Oh, there we go. I was about to say, otherwise, I'm just going to be scrolling through all the A names through all eternity whenever we're going time to draft. Mr. Scamper's got rookie with rookie in the first round. There we go. We saw it's got to be breeze, right? At that point, that's really the only reasonable place. It's the first round. But Mr. Scamper is drafting from the nine spot. So it could be a lot worse than having to take breeze hall first round. You know what I mean? That could be pretty bad. Well, there are eight players before him that could just try to mess with them and ruin their draft by taking breeze hall, but make it even worse for scamps. Oh, my God, please do that. Dame got a player from a new team. You know what? There's some good players on a new team. Player on a new team? From a new team? Like on a new team, right? On a new team this year. Yeah. So I guess that could be rookies. They're all on a new team. So that would be the first round guy who's on a new team. Tyree kills probably the closest, right? Tyree kills a good one. Tyree kills up there. You could go Russell Wilson if you wanted to get. I could just go on this list literally right in front of me, but I'm instead trying to like go for my memory. Yeah, let's just think off the top of our domes. Who else is on a new team? Oh, Devonte Adams. Oh, Devonte Adams is a great. Yeah, you got some good options there with player on a new team. Unless they get snagged from you. Oh, this is going to be fun. I feel like we got lucky with our first round picks jail, but that's OK. Yeah. Oh, definitely. Yeah. J-Wall and Geek if you said Adams and Tyree from Albert. That's true. James, like, stop talking about my my room, please. I'm giving away my players. I'm trying to see if there's anyone else that jumps out. Now, I really think I really think that's it at the top of the draft unless you start getting AJ Brown, maybe a little bit later. That's another player on a new team that you could take. Oh, I like that one second round or maybe third round with a is it 10 people? Whoa, 10 team. Yeah, there's a 10 boy draft in game set. I said, shh, got a lot with this on that one. Jail, I feel like last week we decided to like do that team thing on the wheel and this is us correcting like this is like, OK, that was too far. Like that was a little too. You found the line. We found the line and it was a randomizing which NFL team you have to select. That was a nightmare. That was it was fun. I'm glad we did that. Oh, Albert, with the best option, Christian Kirk. Yeah, Christian Kirk is probably your first round pick game. Now we can just guide people away from James Picks instead of on to James Picks. Everybody watching before we get in there, I just want to remind everyone of the settings for this league. This is a half PPR league. So half point per reception. It's going to be a 20 round draft. I mentioned at the beginning, but you're going to start one quarterback, two running backs, three wide receivers, a tight end and then two flex spots. No kicker, no defense. Those flex can be wide receiver, tight end or running back. So that's what it's going to be. It looks like our draft is starting in about one minute. Jail, we are getting close. Oh, I clicked the refresh button. That's OK. It'll come right back any moment now. We got one minute. I understand. Do you know who you're taking with your first pick? I'm not saying. Oh, I guess it doesn't matter because you can't take them. Yeah, I'm taking Cooper Cup. This is an easy Cooper Cup for me. So you're still Cooper Cup over Justin Jefferson, even with the Matthew Stafford elbow injury. In the draft, yes. In what? In redraft, yes, absolutely. Yeah, obviously in dynasty, it's Justin Jefferson and probably a couple other guys out of Cooper Cup. Someone from ESPN reported out earlier that Matthew Stafford is likely going to be only with throughout the season, which is definitely concerning. Yeah, no, I'm it was enough for me to move Justin Jefferson ahead of Cooper Cup. I mean, they're still in the same tier, but just from like a comfort ability standpoint, I expect huge seasons from both of them. So I'm fully comfortable drafting Justin Jefferson and there's just slight discomfort with with drafting Cooper Cup because of the elbow. Now, that being said, if Justin Jefferson is off the board and I, Austin Eckler, Jonathan Taylor and Christian McCaffer off the board, I'm drafting Cooper Cup. Like, that's the guy that I'm taking right there. I'm not I'm not pushing him down draft boards. I just flip flopped him in that tier with Justin Jefferson. That's all I did right there. Oh, and we are getting close and I get to draft a running back first jail. Who do you think I'm going to take? I think you're going to take Naji Harris. And you nailed it. Yep. It's the it's the offensive line that really does it for me, that makes me want to take him over the guys at the top of the board. Hot. I had a head of Jonathan Taylor, a head of Christian McCaffrey, a head of Derek Henry. We've got 10 seconds until the draft starts.  And we're getting started in five seconds. And I'm going to go ahead and tell you who I'm taking jail. I'm taking Christian Jonathan. Look at the CMC, Jonathan McCaffrey. I've been going back and forth on those two guys. I just love the the pure upside of Christian McCaffrey. And I'm not too worried about the injuries when he's on the field. I think he's going to be the best running back for fantasy. And so he's the guy that I'm taking here. But I don't expect him to get re-injured. Then why should I take Jonathan Taylor over him? That's a good point. I think Jonathan Taylor is impervious to injury is what Twitter tells me. There goes Jonathan Taylor to Shane. Gail, we are our next one. We are back to back. So we're going to spin two for each of us. You've got the next pick that I'm going to do two for me. That's where we go to jail for your first pick. You have to draft a player from a non-animal team. So a mascot that is not an animal. I would have it's animal tangential open. I had to draft from a bird team bird team animal flavor. I would put Colt in the man. That's tough. I would put them in the in the animal category, probably. OK, OK, a Colt is an animal, but their map, but their logo is not. Know what I mean? Like the name of their team is an animal. But like the Texans, that's not an animal, even though they have an animal as their logo. OK, like the team itself. Oh, and we need to do another one, actually. We have to do another one back to back. We're going to go back to back. So I have to do a bird team first and then a player on a new team. OK, good, two hard ones in a row for me. And then, Gail, your second one is starting draft. A wide receiver. So it looks like you're going. You got some wide receiver heavy start to your draft, Gail. A nonanimal team and then wide receiver. Nonanimal team and then a wide receiver. We got plenty of time until our pick comes up next, though. We got a minute. Mr. Scamper says I'm going spicy. So we'll see who their first pick was. What was their rule again? Rookie. Rookie was their rule. Rookie. So let's see what Mr. Scamper's does. What was mine again? Bird team followed by player on a new team. Yeah, I think that's right. Swampy in here, say who that I'm not working. Oh, what? This is like the first time and ever swamp is not been working. I can't remember the last time Swamp came into one of our streams and said. Instead, I'm not working. Instead of I am not truly cannot remember. Me neither. Oh, man, I'm getting nervous about this bird team stuff. There's so many good bird teams. There are a lot of good bird teams, but there are some good non bird teams, too. Yeah, yeah, those would fall into your category. Wouldn't they? Not all of them, I guess. Mr. Scamper's just letting you know jail Colt is a horse. What about bills? Can I get a ruling on bills? Because bills is not a animal, but their logo is an animal. Their location is an animal, which is very confusing. Yeah, the location is an animal. If I remember correctly, the bills are this could be entirely made up what I'm about to say, but for some reason, it's in my memory. I think they're named after like a barbershop quartet or something along those lines. Hey, does that spark anything in your memory jail? I think so, because we did a game on our game show at some point that had something related to that. It's something like that, Simon. Right, it is. I'm not going to do what I thought I was going to say, right? It's a what? Do you want group? OK, I have no idea. I for sure was sitting there. I was like, there's about a 60 percent chance I just entirely made this up that like this isn't actually what's going on. I'm trying to try to figure out what player I'm going to take next jail. Do you have any while we're waiting for an expect? Do you have any drafts left upcoming? Are you done with your drafts for the season? I have some that are ongoing. I have none that are upcoming. Ongoing, but not upcoming. Ongoing, but not upcoming. Let's see. Oh, I'm getting nervous. I'm getting nervous. So you have the next pick. So you go next, not me. 10 percent barbershop quartet. You're right, Simon. Nailed it. They're named after Buffalo Bill, the killer in silence of the lambs and humans are animals. So it checks out. That's logic. That is logic. Humans are animals. So even if it is a barbershop quartet, that's just a group of animals. I'm pretty sure that's what you call it. Any group of four humans. If they're not singing already, they're still potentially a barbershop quartet.  Oh, boy. Well, OK, it's back to me. I got to draft a non animal team here. Packers aren't an animal team, right, Simon? The Packers are not an animal team. All right, then I will go with Mr. Aaron Jones here. Because I know I already know I have the advantage of knowing my next pick is going to have to be a wide receiver per the rules, per the contract I signed to be on the show. So I'm going to have to take another wide receiver. I might as well take a running back here to balance it out. Yeah, and mine has to be from a bird team. So it's a little bit early, but I'm going to take the tight end a little bit early. And I'm going to grab from the Atlanta Falcons. And then I have to take a player from a new team. And I'm going to take Tyree Kale on the Miami Dolphins. OK, he's on a new team. As my two picks in the jail, what is your rule here? Wide receiver. This is wide receiver. Yeah. So I got CDLAM's Saquem Parkley is not a wide receiver. Get out of here. Let me just filter by wide receivers. I think I'm going to go CDLAM. He seems to be the clear guy sticking out here. The next best wide receiver, according to ADP, is Mike Evans. And CDLAM to me is the step up of Mike Evans. Yeah. Yeah. I have CDLAM just one spot ahead of Mike Evans in my ranking. So I would agree with that. Dame wants to know what's the what's the punishment for messing up this time? It's animal noises. Animal noises are the other very creative choices. Well, we can get creative. We don't have to get creative with the concept because we can get creative with the animals. That's true. The options are endless on that front. And Swamp said, I got one more draft tomorrow for my smash. Did we ever go over Swamp's scene that he was trying to get us to go over for a long time? I don't think you were on, but I went over it with Joey and in someone else and Addison goes on. It was a scene. Yeah, but we did go through it. Geek says a lamb needs to stay healthy. All the players need to stay healthy or they're going to be bad picks, probably. Jail, you want to go ahead and roll for our next ones? Do it. Let's see. Let me let me get this over here. Can you see it? Is it pulled up? Yeah, there we go. You're up first. Draft a wide receiver, Jail. Three out of four. That's pretty funny. Not two in a row for me. Free square. I get to talk to everyone I want. And then I get one more draft or running back so it's free and then RB and then Jail. Your second one is you draft or running back. We're both draft and running back. Wide receiver running back. And I've got free square running back on that one. Swamp said, yeah, go ahead and send your team to chat. I'll we'll go over now. So I'm sorry about that.  So I'm just kidding. I got like probably seven hours of sleep throughout the whole week. Well, then what are you complaining about? That's at least an hour. That's true. That's a lot. That is a lot. I'm blessed. I bet one day it was only 30 minutes. So you probably got like a full hour and a half one night. That's true. That's true. It did. It did work like that. Did you ever one day? It was zero minutes. I just let it up all night. Do you remember when the like Superman sleep schedule was like making its rounds on the internet where it was like now how to operate on only two hours of sleep in a day? Like you can maximize your RAM by doing it this way. And the the formula was like six exactly 20 minute naps at exact times. Like like if you can just fall asleep on command, they were saying like with these just six 20 minute naps throughout the day, you only need to sleep two hours. That's all you got to do. And I'm just in the thing like I can't fall asleep on purpose whenever I'm even at my most tired. Like if you told me that like the quality of my life was dependent on me falling asleep for 20 minutes at 2 p.m. Exactly every day, like I would crumble into a ball of like anxiety, just knowing how much pressure was on that neck. I couldn't handle it. Yeah, no, I'm with you the same. I'm the same exact way, Simon.  Nothing. Jay Wall said, I'm building my team a certain way within the rules. Can you guys guess which way? Yeah, poorly.  If I had to guess that your plan, Jay, well, let us know in the chat. Let us know in the chat. Put that like button and subscribe, buddy. Don't don't you dare text me and let me know. I don't know why that's so funny. I was in the chat. Mike Evans, Mike Williams, Travis Kelsey. I'm guessing you're going with a hero R.B. strategy. I can't wait for you to roll like six running backs in a row, though, and ruin it, Jay. Oh, I'm up. All right, James Conner just went. I have to draft a wide receiver here. I don't see Conner did not just go. He's still on the board. Oh, I'm sorry. That's who my auto pick would be. I was confused by that. I really wanted A.J. Brown. Thanks, Dan. D.J. Moore, Terry McClourn, Alan Robinson. Oh, I like D.J. More than most here. Why is Dave Davis up here? We're in round four. Dave Davis is up here because people are just really love him is how I'm going to say that nicely instead. He looks in print to that. Man, I feel like people care about their love. I feel like people have been rolling a lot of wide receivers or something because I feel like the wide receivers on this board have just gotten really gross, like really quickly. My next ones are running back. Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no. OK, I panicked and drafted Alan Robinson. I wish D.J. Moore was still sitting there and I like Juju Smith Schuster better. I don't know why I just did that. It was panic. And now I have to draft a running back. So which of these guys is my favorite still sitting here? Why am I doing it on this screen? I have to do it over here. Let's behave. A Zeke a little bit. I got Zeke. We're adding Zeke to the team over James Conner. But that was a what do you think about that? Would you take Zeke or James Conner, J.L.?  I'm going to draft James Conner here. Because you had to get back as well. I did have to draft a running back. So I took James Conner, who I believe is best in the board. Bruce Hall is a little tempting, but to James Conner and and Bruce Hall, I'm going James Conner, especially in half BPR. Man, I feel like I just really wasted my free square. Like I got a free square. And I just feel like I just really wasted it. Like it could have been great for us and then it wasn't. To answer your question from before, I would go Zeke. I would go Zeke just barely. They're very close to my rankings. Yeah, I think I'm on Zeke as well, but it is just barely. OK, let's see what your next rule is. OK, then we'll hit Swampstein. You got a free square, J.L. Congratulations. Now mine. A nonanimal team for me, no animal. Don't even think about animals. OK, Meerkat. Shit. And then I've got a red team. So I've got no animal followed by red. And then, J.L., your next one after that is going to be a flex. Oh, J.Bairl, almost got a bird team. Man, that's a pretty good round for you. Free square followed by a flex. It's basically two free squares. I would have drafted a flex position anyway. Yeah, I know. Basically two free squares. You want to hit Swampstein real quick while we're waiting for our next pick to come up. Yeah, let's hit Swampstein. PPR, 10 man. Kyler Murray, scary Terry, Terry McLaurin, Brandon Cooks, Austin Eckler, Aaron Jones, Zach Erich, Chavante Williams, D.K. Meerkat from Mongey Stevenson, Godwin Patterson, there's Tony Burks, Tolbert, Garrett Wilson, and Tyler Algier. OK, give me a second to digest this. Kyler Murray, Terry McLaurin. OK, let's just break down my position. Kyler Murray, fantastic. Top five quarterback at the position. PPR, that's a great fit. I'm guessing you took them early because I'm guessing you probably had to. And a 10 man league wouldn't have recommended that. But that's all right. Let's go to the running backs next. Austin Eckler, Aaron Jones, Geronté Williams from Andre Stevenson and Cordero Patterson. Oh, man, that's a solid running back for there. I have nothing to say there. That's exactly whenever we looked at this team jail. It was like, you're good at running back. Totally good. Patterson is your fourth guy. Oh, what I mean. Like Patterson is one of my favorite third running back options on teams. Like I really but you've got Javante like in your third back. There's even a big break between Patterson being your fourth guy. Javante Williams is your third guy after Eckler and Jones is just discussing. And Stevenson is in there, too, which is which is certainly a report just came out today as well about Ramondra Stevenson. It's Bill Belichick. So who knows what's real, but he was saying that Ramondra Stevenson definitely could be used more in the passing game. So take that for what it's worth. And then wide receiver. Let's see, where did Terry MacLaurin, Brandon Cooks, DK Metcalf, Godwin. Oh, Tony Berks, beautiful. And listen to this. Got DK in the seventh and Godwin in the ninth round. Godwin in the ninth. Beautiful team swamp. You knew the answer to that. You did know the answer to that. Well done. I know he was talking about who he would drop from this team. If Earth isn't playing week one because there's a possibility that Earth is not going to be on the field week one has to pick up another tight end because I don't think he would want to drop Earth. He's not like of that streaming level of tight end where you would just cut bait on having him. Which of these players would you drop, you think, to pick up another tight end for week one, if you had to? Probably Algear. Probably Algear. Definitely out of that group. Man, Algear. But there's like that. There's like that. I want to see week one in this Falcons offense. Oh, you're on the clock. I'll let you pick. But like part of me doesn't want to drop out here because there's so much uncertainty in that backfield. I think it's going to be Patterson. But it'd be nice to see that on the field week one. I don't know. I might be tempted to drop one of Tolbert or Wilson. Tolbert, especially with the Gallup News. I'm just not sure how relevant he'll be for fantasy this year. Yeah. I'm on the clock. And what was my rule again? No animals. My rule is no animals. OK. Who is a nonanimal that I want to drag? Chris Godwin's not an animal, right? He's not definitely not an animal. A buccaneer. But I could also draft Josh Jacobs of the Raiders. I think very similar to a raider. I drafted Josh Jacobs. And then what's my next one? A red. A receiver or a red team. Oh, I didn't know. Well, then, you know what? I could drive both the guys I was talking about. The buccaneers are a red team, for sure. I'm going to draft Chris Godwin. Ah, is what we're going to do. And what's your next one? Your next one is? The flex. So I got a draft flex position player. I think I'm going to go with Cam Acres here. Cam Acres, really? Cameron Acres. You like Cam Acres better than Elijah Mitchell, J.K. Dobbins. I'll just stop at those two names. Between those two guys, yes. I like Cam Acres better than those two. But I have I'm well documented my concern for Cam Acres. Yeah, I just. I don't know. I'm I'm nervous that Cam Acres isn't going to have that feature role. All the talks out of can't make it seem like Darrell Henderson is going to be heavily involved in this offense. I've got more confidence that J.K. Dobbins, as long as he's healthy, that he's going to be the primary ball carry in that offense. And I know people love the Shanahan uses a platoon back narrative. But until I see it, I'm assuming Elijah Mitchell is the guy there. He was fantastic last season. Like the clear ball carrier whenever he was healthy. So I would still take Elijah Mitchell over Cam Acres as well. Should we spin again? We should spin again, probably. Dale, you're up first. Yeah. You got to flex again. You lucky, lucky man. And now it's my turn. What do I get? A wide receiver, wide receiver for me. Jail's going to be worse to be worse. Could be worse. What do we got next? Another nonanimal player for me. Nonanimal and Jail, your second pick this time is going to be. You got to be all right. I'm for the QB. I'm fine with that. Totally fine with that. We've got wider, skiver and nonanimal for me. And then you've got flex and a quarterback. It's getting about that time, right? We're approaching that. You'll that will be your ninth round pick. That is that's right around where I like to go. QB 10th, 10 manly, 10 team league, I should say. Maybe a little later, but that's fine. That's fine. Albert said, are you guys doing office hours this season? Good question. Good question. We are planning on doing office hours on Thursdays this year. So on Thursdays, we're going to be doing office hours. You can check that out over on our channel at Front Yard Fantasy. Yeah, we're putting out a schedule soon, an in season schedule, so you know exactly when we will be live. That is coming out this week. So if you keep an eye on our Twitter over at Front Yard FYF or any of our individual Twitters. We'll just hop in the stream and ask. We'll probably share it with you then. We'll, but we'll shame you in the stream, if you ask.  Also, Swamp said, thanks, Jail. You're welcome, Swamp. Great team. Nice draft. Also, Mr. Scambers says this is painful, but I got the rookie 101 and 102. I'm guessing Mr. Scambers keeps on rolling rookies. And he said Pierce and Breece, I mean. 101 and 102. Put him down, Pierce as the 102. Are you taking that high, Simon? Absolutely not. No. Absolutely. I am taking. Man, and it's even if I have the 101. I'm honestly probably trading it to somebody who really wants Breece Hall. But if you're making me make the pick, I'm probably taking Breece Hall. But then after that, it's quite a few wide receivers before I even consider the next running back. Like we're talking like four or five guys probably before I even look at drafting another rookie running back. I like the other rookie running backs, but like Damian Pierce, one, you're putting a lot of stock into this season and how empty that backfield is for him. He doesn't have the draft capital. Like in Dynasty, that just scares him using an early round pick on someone where it's very situational, where their value is coming from. Like it's not a talent thing necessarily. Not that Damian Pierce isn't talented, but he wasn't drafted high in the NFL draft. So a lot of this value is coming from the situation. And so I don't want to draft a situationally valuable player at the second spot in a rookie draft. Yeah. I want to draft someone that could be valuable even if- So who would you take? If assuming Breece Hall is the top, who's your second guy? Drake London. Drake London. I think it's Drake London for me. What about you? I don't know. You don't know. I think it's changed. It used to be Kenneth Walker now. I think it's probably one of the wider receivers. Probably Drake London. Joe, you are up next. I'll hit this question. So you're prepping for that. We got, actually, you know what? We are about to make four picks back to back to back. We'll hit this question right after our picks. Make sure we got time for it. Cause yeah, that looks like a fun trade. Joe, you're on the clock. And what was your rule again? Flex? I got to draft a flex. Got to draft a flex here. I got four wide receivers, there's three running backs. Four wide receivers, three running backs. Oh, I don't want to go here. I think I'm going to go running back. And I think I'm going to go with, oh, I don't know. Nope, I'm going to go wide receiver. I'm going to go Rashad. My method Bateman. I thought- That's a sensor. I almost did. I almost did. I was 100% positive.  Like you had a look in your eye. Like that's what was coming out next. I love that I can just say MFN and it's like way, way, not as bad. It could stand for- More food. More food. Oh shoot, which wide receiver do I want here? Okay, I, oh wait. No, no, no. It worked. It said I drafted Dallas Goddard on that little green bar. Oh, that's your bad. Michael Thomas worked for me. Oh shoot, now I need a non-animal and I only have 20 seconds. Oh, that's an animal. Is it me? Is it you? It's me. Oh, it's you. It's you, I think. Oh, no. Oh, it did draft Dallas Goddard. I broke. No, okay. Well, Michael Thomas is not on the Saints or is not on an animal team. He is on the Saints. So you got two rules? No, I broke one rule because I accidentally drafted Michael Thomas with my second pick instead of my first one. I got Dallas Goddard. But Dallas Goddard was good. Dallas Goddard. No, Dallas Goddard was bad. Michael Thomas was good on accident. Like he qualified for both of my rules. Okay, I got you. I got you. Ooh, all right, chat. Let me know what animal noise you'd like Simon to make. It can be anything. Even things that don't make sounds. Let me know. Let me know. I'll pick the best one. Or if you don't come up with any good ones, I'll come up with a better one. Craig also said, okay, this cat team only thing is going south fast. What is that? Like bangles, panthers? I like that Craig just like made his own rules. He said, you guys can play by your rules, but I'm drafting cats and cats only. Why isn't a cat team rule there? I think you can hear going on.  And Craig's voice is anti with Joe Burrow is fun. That is fun. Oh wait, we were going to hit that trade question. Yeah. He actually says full PBR trade question just got sent to trade of Mike Williams and JK Dobbins for my was Zard and Zeke Elliott. I have acres in four net, Judy and digs. Do I accept? This is a fun one. I'm assuming this is redraft. Yeah, I'm assuming this is redraft. Williams over Lazard is a clear upgrade at wide receiver in my mind. Lazard has that potential in this offense, but in this Green Bay offense, but I expect his role to remain relatively similar. He's going to be a high touchdown, low yardage kind of guy in that offense. Mike Williams we've seen as upside. It's like a top five wide receiver. I would much rather have Williams on my team. And then Dobbins and Zeke. I prefer Zeke ever so slightly, but Dobbins is close enough that I'm taking this trade. I'm taking Mike Williams and JK Dobbins here over Lazard and Zeke. Yeah, I think I am too. It is a little tricky because you're more set at wide receiver than running back in my opinion. And so you're giving up a little bit of strength that running back in order to get in this trade and you're beeping up a little bit more on the wide receiver. And so it's kind of like you're pushing your, the way your team is currently balanced. You're just taking that to a little more extreme, which is fine. It's still within the normal realm. I would make this trade just based off value alone, but it is worth considering if you are okay taking that risk with adding that additional risk with Dobbins along with Acres and Fournet because there's a world where Dobbins and Acres don't pan out the way we think they do this year. Yeah, a hundred percent. A hundred percent. That's a good trade offer that your league mates sent you though. Like that is a quality trade offer. I see some more people in the chat. Craig wants me to do a Sasquatch noise. Not the possibility. We got to get these next ones rolled for us, JL. So I'm going to go ahead and roll your next one. Draft another wide receiver, JL. That I can do. That I am able to do. Now my turn. I got a flex. I'll take that. That's a good one. And then what is my next one on a new team? Oh, no. Oh, no. And then JL, you've got, draft a flex, man. This is nice and easy. You're losing with a bruising. I'm mad about yours, JL. You keep getting the good one. So I've got flex in the new team. Oh, God, the new team one is a little bit tough right now. Isn't it? Just scrolling through seeing who's on some new teams down here. Nope. Man, we got lots of the same team. Oh, no, it's me again. Are you on the clock right now? No, that means I'm on the clock next. I'm going to use my entire time to just look for players that are on a new team. I guess rookies technically count as on a new team, right? Yeah. Oh, give me Cordero Patterson, the loophole. The loophole. OK, now I got to draft a flex is what we're doing right here. Which flex do I want? What is my team looking like? Three running backs, four wide receivers. Maybe I should have gone Elijah Moore. I don't know what to think about Elijah Moore. JL, as you said Elijah Moore, I just drafted Elijah Moore. That is what I wanted to do there. And now I have to draft a player on a new team. So it's really between two guys for me. It's a rookie with some upside or Robert Woods on the Tennessee tights. So I'm between George Pickens and Robert Woods. You know what, let's have some fun. Let's go, George Pickens. Oh, I like that. I like that. And back to Flo here. So I have three running backs, six wide receivers. I got to go flex. I'm going to go with a tight end here. Hey, you don't have any tight ends yet. And I guess there are limited opportunities on this board to draft a tight end. So it makes sense for you to grab one right here. So it's going to feel good though. You said it doesn't feel good. It does not feel good to draft old Friar Truck. Old Friar Truck.  I just think there. No, it's not that I'm not excited. I just, that offense is a lot changing. I don't know exactly how it's going to look. And I feel like Friar Meuth, while he had those flashes last year, are we sure that he's going to be good enough to produce consistently in this offense? Well, no. You think he's good enough to transcend the QB play, bad QB play? I just am not sure there's enough available for him to be a top tier tight end. Like if George Pickens is going to earn meaningful targets, the Auntie Johnson's going to stay at that same like ridiculous, like 150 plus target pace in this offense. Chase Claypool is going to be involved. If Nachi Harris is going to be heavily involved in the receiving game, like Friar Meuth will be good. I just don't think there's enough to make him consistently like a top five, six option. I just don't think that's in his. Would you rather have Kisiki or Friar Meuth? Friar Meuth. I think it's a similar situation for both of them, but I prefer the talent of Friar Meuth. Would you rather have Hunter Henry or Friar Meuth? At cost or just in a vacuum? In a vacuum. They're around the same cost. Are they around the same? That one's tough. I'm probably going to go Hunter Henry, actually. I just feel safe with his role in that Patriots offense. And I think this Patriots offense is going to look similar to what we saw last year when he was almost a double digit touchdown guy. So I'll go Hunter Henry. All right. It's close though. Are we taking our next picks here? Yeah, let's take our next spins. You're up next. Oh my God, JL. You just keep getting flexed over and over again. There's only two of those on this board and you've gotten it like 50% of the time. So flex, bro. I'm so flexed. I got running back. And then what is my second one? My second one is another red team. You haven't had any of the colors, JL. You're going to get the blue team right here. Now you're going to get the blue team. Show me, flex. Player on a new team. Player on a new team, JL. All right, I'm fine with it. I'm not a baby. Oh, are you calling me a baby? No, I'm just pointing out a fact. I'm also not a baby. I've been alive for 28 years and do not have been alive. 28 years. All right, Simon. The time has come. Ah, shoot. Give me the best pig sound that you can give me. I want to feel like I'm in that mud. I'm trying to decide which way to go with this. In body of the pig, Simon. OK, OK. All right.  Because he was scared.  Just ran up and said, make a big noise. And so he panicked. OK, that's why the pig did that. It's like a normal hello. Whoa. It was an oink followed by a don't try to grab me. Followed by an oink. Yeah, that was that was hot. That was hot. Well done. Well done. Geek said I have shoes older than 28. Unless unless they're like some like high quality leather boots, you know what I mean? They'll like get better the longer you have them. Oh. You never been on the buy it for life subreddit jam? Or they like? No, that's the funniest subreddit in the world because it's people who are like when they make purchases, the only criteria they have like the number one criteria is can I still use this in 30 years? Like, can you imagine if everything you purchase, you ran through like a filter of like, will this be good in 30 years? Because like, that's what that subreddits about. Like shirts, pants, shoes, wallets, key chains. They're like, this is the one I want and I want it forever. Forever, never getting rid of it. Geek asked me a question. LSU or FSU tonight? Who do you like? What do you think, Simon? I was just looking at what it looks like. LSU is favored by around four points. And it's, I'm not super confident in this one. I think LSU under, who's the coach there now? Brian Kelly, right? They've got some, they've got some rebuilding to do on that team. After they won the national championship, it didn't look like the same LSU that we've been used to seeing. I mean, but same thing with FSU. It's not the same FSU. I'll take FSU in this one. But I think it should be a fun game. It should be. I'll take LSU. You'll take LSU? You want to make a bet? Oh, and you're on the clock. How much time? You got 23 whole seconds. Oh, I got flex and I'm good. I'm good, I'm good, I'm good. OK, where do you want to go here, J.L.? You know what, actually, no, I changed my mind. Take your time and lock it. OK, and you know what I'm about to do here, J.L.? There's a couple guys that I would normally take ahead of this person. But look at my running back core. My running back core is Christian McCaffrey, Ezekiel Elliott, Josh Jacobs. I feel good, you know what I mean? Like, even if I left with just those two guys, I feel good. So I'm going to take a real high upside guy here, like someone that could challenge one of those guys if things go right in Isaiah Pacheco over like Darrell Henderson, Alex Anderson, Miles Sanders. Just like sheer upside right there for Isaiah Pacheco. It was a little early, but I love the guys that I have there. Oh, shoot, now I have to draft from a red team. And I only have 15 seconds to figure out red. That's not red. That's not red. That's not red. That's not red. Oh, no. OK, this is red, but that is not who I want. How many seconds do I have, J.L.? Six, five, four, three, two, one, shoot Marcus about a scantling ground right now. That's who I was going to take.  If it makes you feel better, I didn't want to take him. Oh, my God, now these guys are on a new team.  Oh, shoot, he is on a new team. Do rookies count? Yeah, rookies count. I took George Pickens. OK, then I'm OK. All right, I'm going to take Miles Sanders first because I need a flex. Wait, J.L., you already did your flex. You already did your flex with Tyler Lockett. This was your on a new team pick. Miles Sanders is kind of on a new team, right? I mean, right? I mean, it depends how you want to stretch that. If you can fully convince me that this is a new team that he's playing on, then I'll let you off the hook. But if not, then you're making an animal noise. All right, listen, Simon, this this Eagles offense has never ever before seen the the talent similar to the likes of Trey Sermon. Trey Sermon being on this team fundamentally makes it a different offense. They're going to start scheming around Trey Sermon. Even though they just signed him recently, the Eagles are very, very excited to have Trey Sermon.  Miles Sanders, Kenneth Gainwell, Boston Scott, Wendell Smallwood, all those guys. Darren Sprouls, gone. LeGarret Blunt, gone. You really make a convincing argument, Jail. But there's such a good suggestion in the chat that I don't care how good this argument is. First, Mrs. Gampers says, I made a bore noise for my Stafford pick, meant to take MVS with that one, but took Stafford and said, thank you for making a bore noise. And then Mrs. Gampers has a request for a robotic eagle. So Jail. Robotic eagle? I want you to do a robot eagle. And I know this is opening the door to make future animal sounds, have an adjective on them as well. Know what I mean like a descriptor, but. And you willing to accept that? I'm willing to accept that. I'm willing to accept that you may add like French skunk in the future as like a noise that I have to make. But all right. That's OK. We're going to make you someone. I'm going to put this up here to make sure that people know what you're doing. Gone, gone, gone. Boom. That's a robotic eagle. Freaking nailed it. What was the car? Yeah, that was perfect. That's exactly what a robot eagle. What a robot eagle says. And geek hippie. I'm guessing he found out and found his way over to the buy it for life. So I said, wow, didn't know I needed boots. I have that same thought every time in my bookmarks. There's like all these like 300 plus dollar pairs of boots. And I'm like, but it's an investment. If I buy it. It's an investment. It's going to appreciate it. Jail, let's go and roll our next one. We're coming up kind of soon. OK, Jail, draft a running back. That's your first one. And my first one is wider. Your next and then my next one is QB. Thank God I don't have any of those. I don't think so. I've got a wide receiver and a QB in the jail. Your second one is red team. You got a draft from a red team. So I've got wide receiver quarterback and I need to start filling that quarterback spot up. He won't really want us to. Yes, it like he really wants us to know his strategy here. This is a Simon team, clearly, sort of. It looks like hero or B, doesn't it? Is there something like a Simon team? Travis, Kelsey, Hunter, Henry, Darnell Williams, Mike Evans, Mike Evans, Schuester, Darnell Mooney, Amari Cooper. Some of them don't make full sense.  No, but overall, it looks like the overarching strategy is drafting players I like. Do you like Kaderi Estoni? Simon's favorite players. I've been rising on Kaderi Estoni. I do like Kaderi Estoni and Skye Moore was a guy that I fell in love with during the off-season. Like, my love for JuJu has tempered my love for Skye Moore for this season. But as a prospect, I still love Skye Moore. Just not excited for this year. Oh, and Joe, you're on the clock. Oh, no. Running back, running back, running back. Oh, can't gain well. Just, we just fired him. Jail overall, or J-Wall overall. J-Wall overall. That's a really great strategy to draft players that I love. Just a phenomenal strategy. So I have to draft a running back here, I believe. That's true. And then I got a red team. I don't really want to draft a running back here. Well, you don't have a choice. I know. This is the game you signed up for. Oh, I know. Okay, we'll take Khalil Herbert as my fifth running back. And then what's next? A quarterback. Thank God we get to add a quarterback to this team. Oh, goodie. Look at all these wonderful options still sitting here. Ah, this is gross. This is really gross. There are no red teams left. There's no red teams left. Are Patriots a red team? That's stretch of it. The Patriots are a blue team, I would think. They got red accents. Yeah, they got red accents. But like, would you call them a red team or a blue team? Is Matt Ryan on a red team? Not anymore. That would be my, that would be like me taking Russell Wilson for my Seahawks. Saw that turned out for you. Yeah, I had to make an animal noise. Yeah, you're right. A lot of the red teams have been picked in here. Who did you go with? I went with Miko Armin and I'm, I'm questioned. I feel like I should have gone Rondale Moore. Who was your gone between those two guys? Probably Rondale Moore in Best Fall or yeah, especially in this format. I'm probably going Rondale Moore. It's close though. Just because at the beginning of the season, if Zach Ertz is out, if DeAndre Hopkins is out, know what I mean? And we expect Hollywood to step up. But Rondale Moore could have an increased role in this offense, especially at the beginning of the season. So I think I'd go more. Yeah, I think I would too. But I went with Hardman. I don't miss like the Hardman pick though. Like it's a player on this chief's offense and it's an ambiguous receiving core. So this late in the draft is totally fine. So I got a question from Trey here. How do y'all feel about my team? 10 man, full PBR, second pick. I'm not going to read out all the names. You can see here. So start with running back, CMC Fournet. I guess I am going to read out all the names. CMC Fournet, ETN, Acres, Karim Hunt. What do you think about those running back, Simon? CMC Fournet. I mean, you started out real strong, CMC Fournet. And then ETN is your third guy. Yeah, you're beautiful at running back. Wide receiver.  Know what I mean? But it's still a great team. Like Alan Robinson has serious upside. Michael Thomas is another guy that if he returns to form, you probably got a big value on him. So I like the construction of this team. And then grabbing a guy like Boyd, like Boyd doesn't make sense on every fantasy team. Know what I mean? I just feel like if you went like heavy receiver early and you've got these studs at the receiver position, a guy like Boyd doesn't quite make a ton of sense towards the end of your drafts. But in this, where there's questions after your first receiver, Boyd is kind of like that safe, consistent slot guy that I've got no problem grabbing because you can just plug them in and play them. You can be pretty comfortable with Tyler Boyd. Overall, this is a good team. Who did he have at tight end? Ertz, yeah, you're good. This is a great team. This is a competitor tray. I like this one. Geek in here saying Herbert is a great backup for Montgomery.  He liked what he saw last year enough to think maybe he's earned a role in that offense. And also J-Wall said Simon team, but he has to work within the rules. So some of the picks may not be pure Simon picks. That's fair. That's totally fair. That is fair. J-Wall, you wanna roll our next players? Let's do it. Our next picks? How many more picks do we have? 16 round of 20. This is the 16th round. So we've got four picks left. Oh, shoot, we gotta roll fast. Okay, J-Wall, your first one is draft a wide receiver. And then I've got draft a tight end. All right. Followed by give me a quarterback. Damn it. Wide receiver. Wide receiver. One quarterback. And then J-Wall, your second one is free square. Free square.  It's my night. But what was your first one, J-Wall? Running back? Wide receiver. Oh, so you got wide receiver, free square? Yep. And I got tight end wide receiver for mine. Man, I do not want one on a tight end. We are up soon. Access to see your question in the chat. We will hit that. After we make these picks, Simon are on the turn. So we got to make four picks in a row. Don't want to get distracted. Well, you know what? I'm not gonna have about having to pick a tight end here. Wait, wait. Where did he go? Who? Where did Evan Ingram go? Who drafted Evan Ingram? Which one of you did it? Which one of you guys drafted Evan Ingram in here? Or am I crazy? And I'm just scrolling past him every time. No, he's gone. Who drafted Evan Ingram? Oh, and you didn't even give me time to look for it. No, I did not. Well, I was running out of time. Blame Fandle. Okay, well. Just kidding, Fandle, we love you. Bob Tunyon, welcome to the team. And then my next one is a wide receiver. Where do we want to go here? You know what? Let's add Sammy Watkins to the team. Just cause I like Sammy Watkins. Sammy M. F. and Watkins. Free beer with Sammy Watkins. Round 17. So we did our math wrong, Jail. What? We said four more picks. There was actually five more picks for us because we didn't include the round, the 16, 17, 18, 19, 20. So now we have four picks left, I believe.  Is it a 10 person lead? No, we have, but how many picks do we have left? My math is so wrong. So we're in round 17. 18. I can't do math at all. 19 and 20. Three picks if we're done with round 17. 18, 19, and 20. Okay, thank you, Jail. Sorry, you know what? On Sunday nights, my math just turns off entirely. Doesn't work anymore. We had a question in here, said I have Stafford and Kirk Cousins at QB. Should I trade any of them for an upgrade at QB or keep it the way it is? Without seeing the rest of your team, I can't imagine that the upgrade at QB is gonna be worth what you have to give up plus one of these guys to do it. Know what I mean? I know we're concerned about Stafford, but if he plays, he's near that top tier of guys, maybe not quite up there with the Josh Allen, Justin Herbert, Patrick Mahomes, but right in that next tier, and then Kirk Cousins is a top 12 kind of guy in an offense that's supposed to be even past heavier this year. You'd probably have to package like an RB2 or a wide receiver too with one of these guys to get a Justin Herbert to get a Josh Allen. And I'm not doing that. Like I'm so comfortable with those guys at quarterback that unless you just have depth out the wazoo, I'm probably staying pat. I don't think it's worth giving up one of your starters plus one of these quarterbacks to upgrade a quarterback. Unless you have a deep wazoo. Unless you have a deep wazoo. Yeah, if your wazoo is really deep, then you can do it. I agree with Simon. Unless this is a super flex league, in which case I'm okay trading for quarterback. If it's not, I typically do not like to trade for quarterback unless your team is just stacked everywhere else. And that's like the final edge you can grind out. I'm not too worried about Stafford and Kirk Cousins in a one QB league. Like Simon said, Kirk Cousins is gonna be fine. He's gonna be fine for fantasy purposes.  He'll be good for fantasy. Also, Craig wants us to take a peek at this cat-only team when we get a chance. Let's spin our next six jail and then we'll take a peek at that. You get the peek. So, Jail, you're next one. You gotta draft another wide receiver. You just keep on drafting wide receiver. Great. I have nine of them. And then I have to draft a running back. Great. You really use a quarterback or a free square right here or one of the like nondescript ones, non-animal team. Okay, so my next is non-animal. Maybe I'm gonna get a non-animal QB there. And then Jail, your second one is also non-animal team. So you're gonna have to take a non-animal player right after I take a non-animal player. Great, great, great. Fantastic. Love that. And access it to Keeper League, PPR. Okay, so yeah, my advice is the same. As is mine. As is mine. Let's take a peek at Craig's team right here. Craig team. Craig team. So, Craig has Joe Burrow, Trevor Lawrence, Baker Mayfield at quarterback.  And then we got Deontre Swift, Travis Etn, James. Beautiful. Oh yeah, it dropped off quickly for you at running back after you top two guys. But I love this. Oh, and added another, another running back right there. I love this cat only team. Wide receiver. This isn't a bad wide receiving, you know what I mean? It's not gonna be the best in league, but this is as cats can put together a solid wide receiver course that we're seeing right here.  Oh, and then Craig took Evan Ingram as his cat tight end. Yeah, these tight ends are a little gross, aren't they? Almond Ross A Brown is your wide receiver. Three Christian Kirk is your wide receiver. Four, fantastic, love it. Yeah, wide receivers have worked out. Also, Joe, you're on the clock. No, no. I need a wide receiver. Stat. Yeah, you need a wide receiver. Stat. Oh, and what am I doing? A running back and then a non-animal team. Oh God, why do I have to take a running back here? Hate that pic. Just disgusting. God. And I need a non-animal team. No, this is you. Yeah, I need, first I need a running back. Take Jerick McKinnon and then I need a non-animal team. And really I need a quarterback. So a commander is not an animal, right? Jail? Oh no, I'm on my own to determine whether or not a commander is an animal. I'm gonna say a commander is not an animal. And take that. Jail, you are up next now. That's me. And a commander's not an animal, right, Jail? No. All right, thank God. You also have to take a non-animal player. Oh no. Don't worry, you have 12 seconds. What are you thinking here, Jail? You got five seconds. Oh no. Oh no. Four. Two. One. Errr. I took Jeff Wilson. Oh, that's a non-animal player. That's not an animal. That works out. That works out in the panic of being alone. I panicked because I was asking you, I wasn't on this screen, Jail. And I was trying to determine for some reason it wasn't clicking whether a commander was an animal or not. And I was like, hey, Jail, is a commander an animal? Jail. Jail, like I just, you weren't there for me to answer my question. I had time to pick up my pencil. Okay, so we've only got one more pick left, Jail. One more pick. Let's do our final rules. Yes, please. Yeah, let's do our final rules. We go, Jail, this is your last one. Take a running back. All right, that I can do. And for me, I get to take a flex. We're gonna end on a flex. Okay, we're ending on some easier ones right here. Man, my quarterback's not great. Ryan Tannehill and Carson Wentz. I'm not digging that so much. I only have one. Who do you have? An attack press guy. Hey, you know what, that works. You don't really need another one besides Dak, right? I really should have taken a QB from a non-animal team instead of whoever the heck I just took. That was immediately what I did whenever I saw I got non-animal team. I was like, we're gonna take whatever quarterback is not on an animal team immediately. Shoot. Flex, this was fun. This was a fun style, but I do kind of miss the like sheer and utter chaos that last week's was. Like it was just complete pandemonium every time. Like whenever you roll jaguars after like the first four rounds, it was like, I have no clue what to do here. Like, you know. Yeah, I just gotta pick somebody or make an animal noise. Honestly, that's probably the move is to just agree to make an animal noise. Greg, I love your cat team. That was so much fun. I love that you did that. Why didn't we do that? We could have done one of us has to draft a cat team. One of us has to draft a bird team. Like you have to do that next time. Yeah, we can do it next time. Next off season. Next. Oh, this is our last one ever. This is our last one for until the season start. No. No. What are we doing next Sunday? It's in the title of the video. It says last mock draft of the off season. What are we doing next Monday? Next Monday? Yeah. I don't know. Well, this Monday, it's Labor Day. We're not doing anything. Next Monday. I don't know. Next Sunday. Next Sunday. Next Sunday. We're talking football. We're doing breakdowns of all the games that have been going on. We got a full slate of games next Sunday, JL. It's already here? It's already here. Well, not quite. It's almost there. Football is so close. I'm just kidding. I knew that. And Mrs. Campers said there's a third option. Cat, bird, non-cat bird. The non-cat bird team. What's a cowboy? A bird. Cat dog. What's a cowboy? A cow boy. Yeah, it's half animal, right? Can you imagine if her mascot was like some horrible disfiguration of a half cow, half boy that's like tortured at all times? Like it's like a... Oh my God. It was a failed experiment. That's so funny. It's just the person from Full Metal Alchemist. That's what I was imagining. A little girl. Kill me. Kill me. On the sidelines. What half would be cow? Or would it just be a boy with udders? Yeah, that's exactly where I was going. There's only one part of me that's cow. Can you guess? And there's six nipples sticking out of the center of their jersey. Had this baby custom made. Yeah. You know what? It's a good thing this draft is almost over as we've gotten like deep into udder talk. Udder talk. Udder theory. That is the name of one of my dynasty teams is Udder Chaos. I know that. And my logo is just the cow udders. Yeah. Like it is cow udders is my logo. The team name is Udder Chaos. What was my last one? You got Running Back. Running Back. Right. Thank you. And I got Flex. And my guy got taken. Okay. I can draft anybody I want. That's from one of these three positions. I'm very running back wide receiver heavy. My team is one quarterback, two tight ends, seven running backs, 10 wide receivers. Let's see. Yeah. Mine's close to yours. Mine is two quarterbacks, six running backs. Oh, and it just disappeared as soon as I said that. I have no way. Oh, one quarterback. Nope. Wait. Hmm. Yeah. Two quarterbacks. Nine wide receivers and three tight ends. But one of those tight ends was a mistake pick, where I accidentally took down a Scott. We told them, remember I had to make a, what animal?  Where I got that inspiration from, there was a, there was a video from, I think it was the Arkansas state fair where they had to do like a, I'm going to butcher what it's called any Arkansas fans or people who live in Arkansas are going to like hate me, but it's like the, like the pig suey noise. Like the, like, like the wild. I'm sorry. Say again. Nope. It was the wild pig. It was like the wild pig call contest where they had to like do the call and somebody got up on stage in a video and said, I'm sorry to all of the serious competitors here. I lost my fantasy football league last year. And this is my punishment. And against all of these other competitors, had to like compete on stage at the state fair, making that up. Oh my God. That's terrible. Making that call. Guys, everybody who joined us this week and for every other mock draft throughout this off season, thank you so much. We are still going to be here next Sunday at 7pm Eastern time, like we have been all off season, but we're going to be doing a fantasy football breakdown of that day's NFL games. So come on back here this same time next week for that. It's going to be different, but it's going to be fine. Jail. Can we implement, can we implement rules on that stream? Oh, 100% we can implement rules. We got to figure out what the rules are. We'll figure that out. And if you guys have any suggestions, let us know, send them to us in DMs. We got to make some rules for that because I'm not done. Talking baby talk the whole show. No, absolutely not. But that's a good. Yeah. I hate that. Guys, that is going to be it for us this Sunday. Thank you so much for tuning in. We'll be back next Sunday and on Friday at 6pm Eastern time on the FanDuel YouTube and Twitch channel. So make sure you come hang out with us this Friday as well for some more game show fun. Until then though, we are out of here. Have a good rest of your Sunday night. Enjoy your Labor Day. See you later.


Hello and welcome. You're watching the Republic Media Network on your screens now. You've known him as a yogi, a mystique and today Joining me is Sadhguru. He's on a mission. Today. You're seeing him in a Biker's gear because he has one message. He's joining us after driving for over 3000 kilometers on a motorbike over the last two weeks and he has a message today. Sadhguru is telling all of us Kaviri is calling. Do you have the heart to hear? Thank you, Sadhguru for joining us on the Republic Media Network First of all your enthusiasm and your positive energy and The mission that you're going ahead with when it comes to saving our rivers tell our viewers about it We need to understand this the most fundamental mistake that most people have in their perception is That most people think river is a source of water or a lake or a well is a source of water No rivers, lakes, ponds and wells are not sources of water. They're only destinations for water The only source of water we have is monsoon rain. We must understand this So the volume of rain that is being showered upon this subcontinent in the last hundred years has not changed much The patterns have changed but the volume has not really changed So our ability to hold water in the land is what has been lost This loss has happened mainly because of the removal of vegetation largely tree cover that's been taken away for example in In Kaveri basin 87% of the tree cover has been removed in the last 50 years So our ability to sequester and augment the water resource in the ground water and in the rivers and the aquifers has been lost Completely so putting this back. How is it possible? Because right now the only real land owner who has large amount of land which is nearly 80% of the land is the farmer So unless the farmer goes grows trees, it is not going to work Why would he grow trees when he's in a desperate condition where a whole lot of them are committing suicide? Thousands of them when this is the condition you can't tell him save the river save the country save the world this kind of preaching So Kaveri calling is an economic plan for the last 18 years. We converted nearly 70,000 farmers into agroforestry and we have seen that within five to seven years Their incomes go up 300 to 800 percent. I'm repeating this 300 to 800 percent three to eight times over But we are right now in the process of converting Three to five thousand farmers per year if we go like this it would take 80 to 100 years as I'm not planning to live that long I decided we will crush crush this hundred hundred years into 12 years And that is Kaveri calling to make sure that at least one third of the land is under shade and under cultivation Because if we want to if we want to enrich the soil There are only two sources for us the leaves from the trees and the animal waste Trees are gone long time ago. And as you know animals are all migrating or rather being transported to other countries So there's no animal waste. There's no tree leaf. There's no way to enrich the soil We're trying to largely grow crops with salts or fertilizers, right? And that is the biggest damage that's happened to the land We have to put back green cover to enrich our soil. This is about the soil If we enrich the soil if it's organically rich then water sequestering will naturally happen and Rivers will flow once again. Yes, this this is not some rocket science This is something that we always knew and lost it in the last 50 years So you spoke about the first stakeholder who's a part of this entire Campaign you've spoken about the farmers. We know that the entire Kaveri calling campaign There is no doubt in the fact of the benefits that will have for our environment and for our future generations But when we talk about farmers and you also spoke about the economics of it Did it take any kind of convincing especially when you're out on a bike rally through the Kaveri basin speaking to a lot of people? What did it take for you to bring farmers to join your movement? So one thing is In southern India particularly in Tamil Nadu There is an enormous trust in the farm community with me and I know what I say and they know very well What I say is for their well-being. There is no politics behind it or some other motive So that trust has translated into action as I said over 70,000 farmers have benefited in the last 18 years of this project But the pace at which we are going is not good enough and one reason why the farmer does not want to grow a tree Even in his own land if he grows a tree and cuts it Most probably he will be arrested for that and there is a whole lot of activism in the country Which if he cuts a tree in his land people will come and protest a large complaints against him These kind of things have been happening. I'm asking why would a poor farmer grow something that he cannot make use of? So we have been working with the governments both with the central government and the two state governments to change these laws we're in the process of setting up a temple timber board where Timber must be treated as an agricultural produce not as a forest produce India's forests are an absolute no-no for commercial exploitation Commercial exploitation of our forest is is history. We cannot do that anymore if we want timber we have to grow it in the farmland and this is very very lucrative for the farmer and also it works for the government because In many ways it solves various problems that the government has with the farm Distress and it will work for the larger public and for the nation because it will enrich the soil and sequester water to what extent means for example right now We are talking about 242 crow trees to be planted in Kaveri basin if we plant this many trees when they are eight to twelve years old They can sequester Something like nine to twelve trillion liters of water to give you a perspective of what is twelve trillion liters of water Right now the present flow of Kaveri throughout the year is twenty one point two trillion liters So more than sixty percent of the water that's flowing in the river can be sequestered now Kaveri is not just one river It is a river system of our hundred and twenty tributaries coming in these tributaries have dried up in a massive way And Kaveri itself is not touching the ocean for more than five months What was a perennial river for millions of years has become a seasonal river in the last 15 years. Yes Sadguru as you talk about this I see the counter right in front of me You spoke about how to 142 crow trees. That's your mission and I see that counter going up by every minute now You there are over three crore eighty three lakh ninety two thousand and as as we speak it's touched 852 trees that have been Contributed so I grew a lot is spoken about the youth today, especially one owners the millenials They have been in the debate recently as well today when you take out a bike when you go out To spread a message that will do good for future generations. What is the kind of response you get from the younger generation? How does it feel when you lead a bike rally and with you? There are thousands and thousands of youngsters who follow you as you take this mission ahead One reason why we chose to get back on the motorcycles It's been more than 30 years since I got off the motorcycle There was a time when I crisscrossed India on the motorcycles, but it's been over 30 years now so why I got back on the motorcycle now is mainly to touch the youth because You know the youth of India need to get involved in this otherwise this not going to happen Right now the farmer is very enthusiastic Both the governments are willing to do what is needed Both of them have promised that they will give the necessary subsidy and make the changes in the loss Which will allow a farmer to grow Fell transport and sell his timber product wherever he wants whichever way he wants So once this happens agroforestry will grow not just in Kaveri basin It will grow everywhere in the country and in the tropical world in the last two I mean in ninth and tenth of this month I was at the COP 14 and I find enormous enthusiasm at United Nations about Kaveri calling and they all think it's the most fantastic thing to be done And they're looking forward that this works so there is support from United Nations all the organizations in UN and Only thing now missing is we need to raise 250 242 Crore saplings right growing quality saplings is a challenge. We have ourselves set up 35 You know nurseries which have been operating for over a decade now Now we are planning to set up another 350 Nurseries apart from this we want to train over 10,000 farmers to raise nurseries because nursery raising itself can become a very lucrative business for the farmer Right, but when the farmer raises these saplings we must have the Economic power to buy back these saplings and redistribute for agroforestry. That is why this fund raising I don't know you said the number of three crore something the last time I saw the counter. It was four crore twenty seven lakh something I don't know what counter they provided you but anyway it is around that much and the best thing is the Contributions are coming till now. They have come from about 112 countries from across the world You you spoke about like you were telling us the growing of saplings We know that the government you have immense support There is support from the government when it comes to this movement But like you said the the biggest challenge is of the growing of saplings What kind of support are you seeking any support from the government when it comes to this aspect of the of the campaign? Or is there any support that's also coming in from the government? The Karnataka government Said that they have little over two crore to 2.3 crore saplings in their nurseries and they dedicated two crore saplings for Kaveri calling Tamil Nadu government had some 1.5 or something they dedicated 1 crore Those numbers I think the Tamil Nadu numbers which just came today evening have not been added to the counter So it is well over five crores right now, right? Plus a group of people who are with us for an event in erode in a town in Tamil Nadu These people Because they're all big landholders when I appeal to them They said they will grow five crore saplings in the next five years every day every year They will offer one crore saplings to the Kaveri calling and they've promised they will do it just now an MP from Tamil Nadu. He said they are big landowners themselves. He said he will dedicate one crore saplings So these promises are coming we need to translate this with the right kind of action because our teams are fanning out right now We have we have organized 45 wins which have been Going around They've covered over seven thousand villages right now in Kaveri basin These vans are fitted with LED screens as to how to grow agroforestry What are the mechanics of it? What is the economics of it? How they can benefit? What are the different formats in which they can do this? This education is happening till now we've covered seven thousand villages and it will continue because even for sapling raising raising a healthy sapling is Something that needs to happen because the commercial farms we cannot buy because they're putting a lot of urea and growing it Their survival rate will be very very poor. So we are growing them organically. That makes a big difference Sadguru, I'd like to ask you a larger question today. There is energy of positivity in our country Be it our Chandrayaan mission the way our scientists are always striving or be it this campaign that you're leading today When you've taken out a bike rally where you're traveling the length and breadth of two states to spread the message When it comes to the kind of narrative that is built about the country There is there are some who always try to paint this negative picture about the country to them What is your message especially coming at a time when there are people in this country who just want to strive for the betterment of The country be it our scientists or beat someone like you who's doing it for the farmers and also for the future generations of this country see Unfortunately This is there, but I think we should not pay too much attention to them There the such people are there now the choice is just this Do you want to find solutions for the problems that we have or do you want to find problems in the solutions that we have? This is the choice we have some people unfortunately think it's very intelligent to invest in finding problems Thanks to them that we know what the problems are But I think our problems are very clear it is in finding solutions that we need to invest our energies and intelligence I hope more and more people will work for solutions in the local areas wherever they are And that is how a country can move forward absolutely on that north of guru your last message especially to a larger You know to a larger audience who's today watching us How do you think they can come and step in to join you in this campaign the Cauvery calling campaign? See when I say 240 40 2 crore saplings people eyeballs roll Because they think it's too big a number But what I'm saying is our population is about 130 crores right That means if all of us plan to if we raise two saplings the job is done Two saplings in three four years time is not even a Challenge for anybody But as you mentioned certain people there are a whole lot of people who won't do anything So we have to plant for them. So I openly told everybody everybody who gives a negative commentary I will plant 10 trees for each one of them Thank you so much what else to do and that's a very very won't do anything. We need to plant for them. I Would like to say this to you in Chennai They told me that there are some beggars who are earning three and a half to four lakhs per year That is their income. It looks like an attractive profession So our volunteers are going about enrolling them now that they must contribute because people's contribution is making their life Right. They must contribute one sapling per week So all the Chennai beggars if they do one sapling per week Everybody else all the Republic TV watchers must decide how much they should do. This is not about me This is not about a particular organization. This is a generational work It is time that we as a generation prove that we are a responsible generation Yes, thank you so much our guru for speaking to us and we know This has been a very very long journey for you when it comes to the campaign and also Riding 3,000 kilometers about 3,000 kilometers across two states not an easy thing. Thank you so much I'm going to take back that one message that you leave us with is for every person who spreads negativity I'm going to plant 10 sampling saplings on their behalf. Thank you, Sadhguru for speaking to Republic TV Thank you. Namaskar
