You heard it at the top. We're very excited to announce that we have partnered with the American Cancer Society and the NFL and their crucial catch program.

It's pretty cool that we're able to do that. Yeah, it's what it's all about. So we have a great show. As I said, we've got the NFC South.

breakdown today. We've got some stack attack. Oh! That's what I was waiting for. I'm always waiting for Billy Joel. That's how I live my life. You ought to know by now. I apologize for nothing. We have an interview with Ronald Jones. He heard him on the intro to the show. Rookie running back for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. We'll talk to him at the end of the show.

And so it's jam-packed. I mean, happy Jeff Fisher Day. Oh, it's 8-8, 2008. It's 8-8, 2018. Wasn't there some Jeff Fisher news yesterday? Yeah, he's going to be. Some way? He's going to be calling a game at least one that I've heard of. And the results and the reviews are already in. Mediocre at best. Oh, come on. I would say he'll be exactly average. 50-50 on all of his takes? Yeah.

Sorry, Jeff. Let's start, by the way, you can follow us on Twitter at the FF Ballers. We're on YouTube. YouTube.com slash the fantasy footballers. What were you doing with YouTube yesterday on Twitter, Mike? Oh, what was I doing? Yeah, I want to know. I mean, if it's still available to people, I want to know. You know what? We'll run it back one more. One more day. One more day. I've got a copy of Madden 19 on the PS4.

and the Xbox to give away. And the way that you enter, you go, you go subscribe to the YouTube, you go ring that bell so you get notifications. And then on today's video, you leave your Twitter handle. And then I will be randomly selecting a winner by the end of today. Sweet. This is good. This is good. I've had a chance to play the new Madden. It's downloaded. I...

I am ready. When I told my son that we got Madden 19, he proceeded to have about five minutes worth of karate kicks and air chops. Because he's still pumped. Amazing. Now, did I make a mistake, Mike? Because I got it on PS4, and you have it on Xbox. Yeah. So we can't play each other? Do mine on Xbox as well. To be fair, you did not make a mistake because I don't want to have to do that to you. Oh, come on. And destroy you. Well, I believe that you probably would. All right.

Let's jump right into the quick question, which is, indeed, the stack attack. The quick question of the day is what is your favorite quarterback wide receiver stack to draft? So keep in mind, this is not the best wide receiver and quarterback in football. This is...

favorite to draft because you're considering things like draft position and upside and things like that. And where you can draft these players. Yeah, because we don't want everyone's answer to be Devante Adams and Aaron Rogers. That's accurate. Yeah, or that would be my favorite stick if I could get that one. Yeah, they all cost the same. Or Deshawn Watson and DeAndre Hopkins. Yeah, oh, I'd love it. And those quarterbacks are going to cost you a lot. They're going to cost you a fourth, fifth round pick.

to grab Aaron Rogers, even higher in a lot of home leagues to grab someone like Aaron Rogers. For me, I build this approach backwards. I look at what late round quarterbacks I really, really like that I'm planning to draft this season. And do they have a number one wide receiver that I think has a good value? That would be Philip Rivers, who, you know, I like late in the draft. And he's got Keenan Allen, you know, his target share.

is always up there when he's on the field. I expect him to be a monster this year. And of all the top guys, you know, Keenan Allen has the ability to go into that tier with the Julios and the Odell Beckham's this season. And he's clearly going to be the cheapest of them. You know, he's the bottom of that tier or the top of the next. And so, yeah, I think you stack him up with Philip Rivers and you're going to have some happy fantasy points. Happy, happy, happy days. Yeah, that's...

That's my favorite stack. And I said, Jason said, hey, you got to get your favorite stack. And I said, it's Keenan Rivers. And he said, no. Taken. That's mine. The seat's taken. So I'm on record. That's my favorite stack. But the other one I was going to throw out, Marvin Jones, Matthew Stafford. I thought about that one. And it's because, like Jason, I'm looking at the late round quarterback that I can get in the double digit.

area in my home leagues, and he's going to be a plug-and-play quarterback one that I will rarely have to consider going to the waiver wire and streaming. I know that Stafford's going to work out. I can grab some other quarterbacks later, but they might not work out. Stafford will, and Marvin Jones, while he, I think, overs succeeded a little bit this past year. He's still a dominant touchdown guy. I don't know if I've heard that word before. Over-succeeded.

I like it. I don't have any problem with that I just never heard that phrase. He over succeeded. He succeeded and then he did it a little bit extra. He was really successful. He threw in some extra success. I will say this on Marvin Jones. We've talked about how like, you know, I doubt that the touchdowns stay where they were last year for Marvin Jones. And so, you know, we are all expecting a little bit of regression.

for Marvin Jones, but that's built into his ADP. He's not being drafted. You know, he finished as, you know, depending on your scoring system. He was a wide receiver one. Yeah, 11 or 9. He's not being drafted anywhere near the 9th wide receiver or the 11th wide receiver out the board. So he is a value because I think he's being drafted where he will probably finish, but he's got a ceiling that is obviously higher than that. Yeah, I am going to shock you with my answer. I believe the word you were looking for was.

Discuss. Here's the thing. Ladies and gentlemen, if you are eating, swallow, put the food down. If you're drinking, pause the podcast before you finish. Put it. If you're driving, pull over to the side of the road. I want every listener out there. This is true. This is not a lot. I want every listener out there to tune in right now. And for those of you that have been with the fantasy football.

footballers for multiple years. I want you to harness the power of the trust built up by this show in your in your innermost being. And I want you to trust me. At Andy Holloway on Twitter, by the way. My stack is going to be the announcement. It's going to be the beginning of my campaign for Tyrod Taylor.

Tyrod Taylor and Jarvis Landry are my stack. Tyrod Taylor is going to be talked about by me for the rest of this offseason. I believe that the undrafted Tyrod Taylor is a steal in fantasy drafts. Tyrod Taylor had seven top 10, I'm sorry, top 12 weeks last season.

He had another five in the top 24. That is 12 of 16 weeks where he was hyper-relevant for fantasy. He has elite-level talent. Jarvis Landry is one of the best wide receivers in football. He is a target vacuum. Josh Gordon is one of the most talented wide receivers in football. We'll talk about Antonio Callaway in a little bit, but he's very talented. They have Todd Haley that has arrived in Cleveland, and the world?

You get a built-in value on Browns players. That is the way it works in fantasy football when you go 0 and 16. And Jarvis Landry is being drafted at a very reasonable level now. I believe he's late. Fourth round for Jarvis Landry because of the regression concerns. You cannot, look, regression concerns are real for Jarvis Landry. They're starting to fade away from me. He is...

Too talented and too much of a target hog, not to play that same role in that offense. They spent too much money. He's too committed to that team. I also thought this was a nice transition into discussing whether you watched Hard Knocks at all last night, which I did get a chance to watch the entire episode. I have not gotten to watch Hard Knocks, and I saw the Jarvis Landers speech. The man is passionate. I'll give him that. Passionate and profane. He will.

Yeah. Look, you get... Not on brand for us, but... You get your message across how you get it across. That's what we always say. And he, that's certainly... Flip-flops and profanity. That was the method. Unfortunately for Tyrod Taylor, he does not get to play the Dolphins or the Jets twice this year. He does get to... Which account for four of his great weeks. Yes, so he did what he's supposed to do. Here's what I'll say in support of your stack here, Andy. I think Tyrod Taylor is actually a really good...

if not a great piece to draft late because if you're into the streaming quarterback, I don't always need to have the guy. You know, you bring up Stafford. Stafford's great because you draft them and you might not need to stream the position. You know Stafford's going to be fine the whole year. Now, Tyrod, if you draft Tyrod, I am 100% confident that you'll have to stream the position at some point. I can't imagine him.

playing the whole season. I think he plays the whole year. I know you do. I'm just saying that now, just so that people understand. Because you both believe there's no chance of him playing the full season. Zero percent. And I believe he will. But that, you know, that doesn't matter when you start. I mean, stream the position. You're fine. If he gets replaced, go to the waiver wire. I will say this. Tyrod Taylor will absolutely be a valuable fantasy asset because, I mean, he always is. He runs the ball. He's got good weapons.
