Fantasy Football - The Overreaction Episode! + Pickens Trade Reaction - Podcast for 5/8

their talent does. Exactly right. And so, and the only other one I would throw out there, this is a talented tight end draft class. So for several years in a row, we've had now, you know, a rookie tight end breakout. But Barack Bowers was a generational prospect. We were hearing about him when he was a rookie 19 year old coming in and dominating. He made Ladd McConkey literally never have a breakout age because he technically never broke out on that team because it was. Brock Bowers' team. And so we've got two really good-looking, tight-end rookies. And I do think that the NFL has changed, and I'm not so opposed to a rookie being very involved, getting more opportunity. But don't draft these guys thinking, I'm getting Brock Bowers. You're not. There's one Brock Bowers. What is the draft capital on Colston Loveland right now?

So it's really, it's not, no, not really. Nothing real. And it's not real. And it's not real because at least on the sleeper data that I'm looking at, he has not, he's buried. And I've, because Bowers did not. Bowers did not chase Laporta's success. People did discount Bowers. Like Bowers was like a seventh or eighth round pick. I mean, you're, yeah. If you thought you were getting La Porter or anything close, you would have been, this is a third or fourth round pick. So this year for rookies. You know, honestly, it's almost a pivot from last year. Go hard and deep at running backs in your drafts. Be a little bit more cautious. You know, I still love drafting rookies and I'm going to. You just can't imbue last year's talent and overreact and reach on guys that, you know, you shouldn't be. It makes sense. I will still be excited at the potential of some of those rookies, but it's all about what you're paying. It's all about.

It's all about the market, the supply of demand, and just probability. You know, factoring and all the... Fantasy football is not a black and white binary choice thing. It is a probability-based sport or game. Not a sport. We... What's going on here, Chuckles? Well... I don't know. I was just thinking maybe. Did you want to do some mail bag? Maybe we could do some mail bag. I don't know. I mean, we have a couple minutes. Let's talk about this for a second. What are some of the benefits and negatives? Some of the benefits of doing a mailbag segment right now. Oh my gosh. Are that the show would go much longer. I think one of our deucers and deusers. All right. I'm not going to say who it is.

I won't call them out, but someone doesn't want this toilet trophy. We're just more of a one-cut show. We don't really take breaks. Yeah, we don't take breaks. If a deucer takes a break, they get a trophy, which I would love for them to get. Michael's, Mike's got a trophy. So anyways, on that note, mailbag. Oh, my gosh. I think we'll let them off there. That'll do it for today's episode. Boy, I would have loved to get into some mailbag, but we would have lost the producer. So next week, it's Dynasty Week. Oh, baby. Not miss it. No week. Goodbye.
