SUPER Mock Draft Episode! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 7/28

From the 99 in the 2000. The 107 spot puts me on the clock at 108. I've been seeing Drake, man, I brought this up in another mock. You know, go third quite often now. Is that where you guys would take him? Four point touchdown leagues, I wouldn't. But in six point, I have him at two. I would not, but it doesn't. The clump of the next quarterbacks, it doesn't bother me if you want to take May.

Yeah, I'm in a spot where it's a little bit tough at 1-08, where I think I'm going to just take a quarterback. I've got options here at the position. A couple of the Russian quarterbacks, Hertz, and Jaden Daniels, Joe Burrow as well. And I don't know if I want to wait eight picks and see myself drop down a tier at the quarterback position. So I'm going to take a shot on Burrow and see what happens, putting producer Borland on the clock. Four quarterbacks off.

four non-quarterbacks off in the first eight picks. And, you know, again, just talking Superflex strategy, it's a supply demand situation. Absolutely. 75% of the NFL's quarterbacks are starting in a 12-team Superflex league. It doesn't change everything about your strategy. It changes the supply and demand factor for the quarterback position. After my borough pick, Jaden Daniels goes to producer Borland, probably thinking the same thing. Not sure if you wanted to wait through.

but value is where the next three picks went. J.S.N. Amon-Raw-St. Brown and C.D. Lamb. Wrapping up the first round. We're moving into the second round. We'll take a break and I'll catch you up.

We want to make sure that I'm the one that gets the player, not another player manager in our league. So trade offers, when you're on the go, all the news that's breaking so you don't make a mistake.

Interesting strategy here by the three teams at the end of this Superflex mock draft. They went Cook, McCaffrey, Jonathan Taylor.

with the next three picks. So they will have a long way in piecing together, a quarterback position. Gentie goes at 204, puts me back on the clock. I'm going to go with a guy. I don't know if I've ever drafted him in a mock draft we've ever done. I'm going to take Kenneth Walker. Oh. I'm going to take Kenneth Walker at 205. Jefferson was on the board. I'm still a little bit shaky there. Sure.

Maybe that would have been the right pick, but I'm going to go ahead and take Ken Walker and solidify the running back spot. Brock Bowers first tight end off the board goes next. Caleb Williams goes next, unsurprisingly to Chicago fan, Jake. Dak, off the board in the second round to Julia. Jason, you're back on the clock. Bejohn was your round one pick. I am pretty thrilled here. The fact that I started with Bejohn, my quarterback four.

in four-point passing touchdowns is still on the board here in the second round. That hurts? That is Jalen hurts. And this format, you know, I know he only had eight rushing touchdowns last year, but he's usually up at, you know, 12 to 15 the years prior. And my man, Sean Mannion, going to get that offense turned around. It was, it was so when we did the NFC East show, the comments were so polarizing. Oh, of course. There was just no more. It was like either.

You're dumb not to take Hertz super high. You're stupid. Or it was like this often sucks. The quarterback sucks. No, AJ Brown is going to mean he sucks. Very few people are purely neutral on Jalen Hertz. They either think that he is overrated or underrated. All right. Two rounds in the books are about to be. Mike's on the clock. After the Bowers pick, Caleb Dach, Jalen, Jalen, and then Jefferson goes at 210 here. A. Chan, Devon A. Chan at 2.11.

Mike, you've got two picks back to back here. You got Josh Allen in the first. It seems like a nice spot to be in a Superflex. Yes, it's not too bad. The running backs, by my estimation, there are still, if you guys left, who can be true top five difference makers. The wide receiver tier of guys right now is pretty compact. But I'm...

I'm not leaving without a quarterback, or I'm sorry, a running back here. So I'm taking Chase Brown, who I just, I feel like is about as safe as they come for fantasy with still having massive upside. And then it's funny. It's the, I think I talked about it on our last mock, but just the, the click of Rashid Rice doesn't feel great. It's just like, you know, when you get the dopamine hit from the draft pick, but it's,

He's going to be really solid for fantasy. So I'm going Chase Brown and Rishi Rice as the foundation. All right, Hampton goes next at 302. Wanted him. Sequin at 303, Jason. You're back on the clock, Bijon and hurts. It's funny because I feel like I'm very happy. A lot of times when my Superflex strategies, I'm going to take kind of the hero quarterback. And if I can get one of the elite quarterbacks, then I will.

punt for a while. I assumed I wasn't going to do that because I didn't spend my first pick on a quarterback. I feel like I got him in the second round anyways. And then I got Bejohn to boot with that. You feel like you got your quarterback in the second round? I feel like I got an elite quarterback in the second. As opposed to having to spend my first, I was able to get that tier one quarterback. I think that might be the fairest debate on Hertz possible, is not whether he's good or not. It's just whether he's

in that tier of what you're saying. I would say that it really, he is one of those that is very scoring format dependent. You know, he takes a hit in six point passing leagues and gets a bonus when it's only four. I was between two players, Amarian Hampton, and Drake London. Drake fell to me starting with what I feel like is an elite running back, an elite quarterback, an elite wide receiver gives me flexibility going elsewhere. Well, and I know one of your rules this year is you want as many Falcons as possible.

Yeah, you know, a lot of times you're going to avoid a running back and wide receiver from the same team. There are plenty of situations when you're talking about consolidation of targets where it's like the whole team is that. You know, similar to I would take Brock Bowers and Gentie. I wouldn't even question it. They're a bad team. It's just a consolidation of you know they're both going to score a ton of fantasy points. Drake Linden goes at 304 followed by Derek Henry.

Who's next? We got Jeremiah Love and A.J. Brown at 307. I love that pick. Getting the A.J. Brown may stack. That's fun. I assumed I was going to end up with A.J. Brown at my pick. But you took race. Well, I have a strategy in mind here at 308. I'm taking Tray McBride around later than Brock Bowers as an elite positional advantage.

I have a player I'm targeting at 405. I can't reveal it to all these fools on the show. A bunch of clowns. But I want to, I'll let you know if he makes it back around. It's, you know, eight picks away. Producer Borland on the clock. Trey McBride is the pick to go with Burrow and Ken Walker. I feel good about that foundation. Genty was the pick by Al last round is Jacobs in the third. And we got a couple more quarterbacks off the board, the first quarterbacks for.

these teams at the end of the round. Jackson Dart goes at 310 ahead of Herbert at 311, putting Brooksie on the clock for back-to-back picks. It goes Devante Smith. So only two teams through three rounds have no quarterbacks. I mean, it is, it's a way to go. Brooks has Lamb, Cook, Devante Smith, and one more pick here to start the fourth round. Oh, he's tilting. Oh, Kyron. He's going zero quarterbacks.

Betsy takes Trevor Lawrence at 402. I think that's a great pick. Nico Collins goes next at 403, putting producer Borland back on the clock. Our team so far, Bijon Hertz in London for Jason, Alan Brown and Rice for Mike. I'm at Burrow, Ken Walker, and Tray McBride. My plan was... Did the guy make it? He did. He did.

My plan was to wait. Fernando Mendoza. It was. No, it actually was a stack situation that I wanted with T. Higgins. Oh. I was waiting for T. Higgins to come back through. He was going to be in consideration at 308. But with T. McBride on the board, I took him. Love that. So I stacked Burrow and Higgins here in the fourth. And, yeah, I feel pretty good about it. I mean, I'm going to definitely be keeping my eye on the quarterback position.

From here on out, I mean, we all have different approaches to that. But it's going to be tier-based. That's what we put in the UDK. If there is the final quarterback of a certain tier available to me in any of the next three, four rounds, that's where I'm going to go. So we're on a wide receiver run, though, here. Nico, Pickens, I took Higgins. What's going on here? Then Oliva and Tet McMillan go off the board. So pretty heavy running back run from the second to third.

and now a pretty heavy wide receiver run here in the fourth round. So Julia on the clock, she has Puka, Dak, and Henry. She goes Stafford. She wanted her stack. Stafford would have been, I mean, definitely a target in two quarterback leagues for me. Stafford is. Okay. I feel like the age, he's going to get kicked down a lot of, you know, ADP boards. People are drafting off of ADP. That is definitely a super flex target for me, but we got too many sharps in this mock. Jason.

Yeah, I'm sitting here. There's a lot of good players. There's a handful of running backs that I still like that I could pick with my next pick. Wide receivers, you've got the question at this point in the draft. Where do you draft Malik neighbors? That will be interesting in all drafts going on right now. And a handful of guys I like there. In this, because it's a super flex, I'm going to punt the tight end position. I just want to have more shots at either the quarterback or the running backs and wide receivers. I'm going to go super late on my tight end.

I'll take the last one. I don't care. That means, you know, I don't usually take two quarterbacks in the first four rounds in my super flexes. But I think that in a four point per passing league, Bo Nix is, I mean, we're talking right now is he, I don't even think he's being drafted as a quarterback one. And I think he's very undervalued. So here to be able to start with.

Hertz and Bo Nix in a super flex. I'm going to march along that path. On your Leporta path to taking a tight end at the end named Sam Leporta. Bo Nix at 409, Brock Purdy at 410. Those were the two guys that I wanted there in the fifth as a, you know, if I was going to take one right now. Mike, you're back on the clock. Abuka goes right before you. Abuka was the.

was the guy. I almost took him there, but I assumed because he was very low in ADP that he might come back to me. And of course, like you said, we're in a room full of sharps. Before my makes his pick, I, in the middle of this round, I wrote down the two picks. I thought you were going to take at the end of this draft or at the end of this round. For my four, five turn? For your four, five. You did it early. I wrote it, yeah, I wrote it down very early. So I, I bet you'll get at least one. I, um,
