for you to become elite NFL. It was the one where he was talking about his diet and everything. Yeah, like just how regimented his diet is. In high school, it was, you're in bed at 7.30. It was he had said, no life. There was one game where your social life is pretty tough with that. He's like, there was one game he had in high school and he cramped up. And his dad's like, okay. I got your, that will never, ever happen again. Yeah, because of this. You're never going to eat that the day before. Because of this hydration plant. It was, it was, you're like, okay, I see it. I get it. You committed everything to being this player. He's the number one. I couldn't do it. He's the number one picking fantasy. And generally what I like to do is I don't even put them in the draft. Well, I just put them on my team and then we do the draft. Oh, that's brilliant. You know what I mean? I don't even, because it's disrespectful to having me draft at one.

He just he should be pre-drafted. He's a pre-drafted. And so I generally as the commission, I'll just put him on my team and everyone's cool with it. Yeah. Right? I like the idea that you just make the pick for everyone though. Yeah. If you have the first pick and you show up, you click enter draft from it. Why is McCaffrey on my team already? No one gets the first pick this year. No, it's, I agree with Andy. No one gets it. And look, it's a lot of great words for a guy that, you know, was the number one pick when he got hurt and missed time. And, you know, that can always happen. And 3.7 of them repeat. And McCaffrey could get hurt. But this is a player that you can't, you cannot predict random injury, but you can predict, you know, how hard a player works. His body has held up to a huge workload for multiple years. Like, you know.

This is just as guaranteed as it gets in fantasy, and you don't need me telling you that. So that's our top 10 running backs. Let me run it back. Pacheco at 10, E.T.N. at 9, 8chan at 8. And you had Sequin and Gibbs tied at 6. You had Jonathan Taylor sitting at 5, Chiron at 4, Bijan 3, Breeze 2, and McCaffrey 1. Do you want to repeat what we said at the top of the show, or would you rather not? You're talking about looking for writers? Yeah. If they go to footclanhelp.com and apply, I don't want to repeat it again. Just let's leave it at the top. All right, let's close it down. That'd be gnarly, though, if we got some guys.
