Fantasy Football - Draft Day Predictions + Storytime - Podcast for 4/24

predict omerian hampton to be drafted before travian henderson due to your obligation to to henderson yes to henderson which you have that's who we're talking about i'll just jump in i haven't gone to the broncos i do too yeah i have the broncos for travian henderson he's such a perfect fit for what they want to do on offense he's a perfect fit there um i think this could be where you guys win over me if he gets to the broncos i don't think he'll go past him But Mike, where I said, I think you're going to like how mine goes. I have the Gibbs surprise that Andy brought up where it was really shocking when it was at 12. I've got the bears. Assuming Genti is not on the board. I think the bears at 10 would consider Trayvion Henderson, even though that's way higher than where he's projected to go.

That's how I have it going. Surprise top 10 pick, Trayvion Henderson. If the most explosive rush rate, the highest explosive rush rate in the entire class. So that's, yeah, plays of 10 or more yards. If I had projected, if I didn't send Gentie to the Bears, if I had done him, you know, five or six, Henderson would have gone at 10 for me too. All right, Quintron Judkins. I have him going to the Giants. Jason? I've got him. I've got him going to the Cowboys in the second round. Mike? I'm going Raiders second round. Okay, there you go. Caleb Johnson, we do have a shared name here, myself and Jason. See Caleb Johnson arriving on Cincinnati's offensive. You guys clearly were not up to speed with the Zach Moss news. I saw the Zach Moss news did not scare me. Don't you care? You clearly. This is Zachary Moss. You clearly aren't up to date with.

the fact that Caleb Johnson is a Cincinnati boy born and raised, a fan of the Bengals, wants to go home. They've brought in a couple top of 30 options. I think Caleb Johnson. Including Caleb Johnson. Yeah. Did not realize that the team you want to go to is the place that you get drafted. When you are a family run organization like the Bengals, it's like, oh, that's a hometown kid. Oh, man. I can't wait to draft him and not pay him later on. Exactly. I'm going with Pittsburgh, who has made several visits with running backs, but I think that they will, they can wait a little bit into the back of the second or maybe even a little later. All right, Cameron Scataboo. It's time. Oh, man. Mike, you went with the Bengals. I was not aware of the Zach Moss news. Yeah, but this is Bengals in the sixth round. Yes, this is Bengals.

This is Cam Scataboo falling in the draft when I do not think he should. He should not. But I think that he's going to be a value pick for whoever wants him in the Bengals. I should have left the Zach Moss News off the news. That would have done the best service for the show. I have the Chargers, the new home for Cam Scataboo. Oh, man, I would love that. That would be, if that happened, I can't imagine any other player going to any other destination where I would be more excited. You know what pick it would be? Oh. That's good enough for me. Or later. Probably beyond that. But if they took him in the second round, that's what it would be. Yeah, I have him going to the Giants. They're looking for a bruising first and second down back. Now, Cam's great as a past catcher. That's why I took Judkins there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Makes sense. All right. So Chargers, Giants, Bengals for Cam Scataboo. We are going to take a quick break and then we'll talk about wide outs.

All right, it's time to talk about draft predictions, wide receivers, Travis Hunter, Browns, Browns, Browns. We all have him going at number two to the Browns. And it seems like he's going to be a wide receiver. Yes, it does. And he should be. He should be. And look, if Kirk Cousins goes to the Browns, you've got some weapons there. He's too good. I mean, three months ago, it was basically a foregone conclusion that he was a cornerback and might. cycle in as a wide receiver because that's the only thing that's ever happened in history. But he is just, he's too good at wide receiver to not play wide receiver for your team. All right. I might make a live pivot here. Oh. But why don't you guys talk about where Tetaro and McMillan's going to go? T-Mack has been falling in a lot of mok sometimes being the first wide receiver off the board still in the 20s. And that could happen, but because.

The wide receiver draft class doesn't have a lot of studs. I think teams are going to overdraft. And I've got them going to the Jets at seven. That is spicy. So seven? Yeah, I mean, it's, it's one of those picks where you've got Garrett Wilson. I was looking at their depth chart. And it's like, you got Garrett Wilson and hot garbage. They absolutely need. And you could see Tyler Warren going here. I really hope that he doesn't. That would just, that would make me very sad. Because I don't think he'd be good here. I think he should go to the Jets. But anyways, I've got T-Mack. I really thought for just the longest time, like I'm going to send him to the Cowboys. It makes so much sense at 12. They really need another wide receiver, a guy who can compliment C.D. Lamb. But I think that the Cowboys are going to fall in love with a different trait. So I got Team Mac dropping a bit. And the Green Bay Packers. At 23? Changing their strategy of, like, they don't take.

wide receiver is this high, but I think that all the chatter out of the team of we need a true number one wide receiver, they're going to go get one. I could see if he were to get to the Packers pick, and I don't think he will. But if he gets there, I could definitely see. That's what they need, this like real kind of alpha prospect. It's very interesting to me. I went Chargers. Oh, that was your pivot. The pick right before the Packers, the Chargers at 22. So Mike and I have them. Dropping a little bit. That was the pivot? Yep. Okay. Matthew Golden. You guys have a shared team. Yeah, this was what I was talking about of. The Cowboys are going to see the speed. So you have the Cowboys taking Matthew Golden over T-Mack. I do. See, if they were both there in mind, because I have T-Mack going at seven, that's why I've got him taking Matthew Golden. I think if they were both on the board, they'd go T-Mack. They should. This is more of a left-field one for me. I don't mind it.

I'm going to go with the Lions. I think Matthew Golden to the Lions. You've got a contract situation coming up for Jameson Williams. Trade rumors. Yeah, trade rumors about it. Trade rumors. I think it's all related. What's the long-term future for him on that organization? Matthew Golden, it could happen. So I think the Lions, I'll make the pick there. Amika Egbuka, I'm going Raiders. Oh, that would be great. So you have them dropping. Hitting his over on, because he's 29 and a half. He is 29 and a half. He's not that old. Nice. Thank you. Sorry. Yeah, that's fine. Right now they have picked 37. I think they could use, they could move up as well. But I have a book to the Raiders. I've got him still going in the first round to the Texans. The loss of Stefan Diggs and the current health with Tank Dell. They need another weapon.

Yeah. Of course, they need offensive line too. Yeah. Every time I kept putting one of these wide receivers of the Texans, like, they need a, they need a player. They need to fix other stuff. I got Ibuka going to the Chargers in the first round. Just so slightly under his 29 and a half. And then we've got Luther Bird in the third. I have the Titans as his home. Oh, I think the Titans. Oh, Cam Ward, the QB wide receiver special. They're going to give Cam Ward somebody. And so this is my pick of the somebody that they're going to give him. Makes sense. Jason, I like this pick for, you know, your selection here. It was tempting with Golden or somebody else. You went with the 49ers. I went with the 49ers as kind of the Debo light replacement. They need wide receivers there with Brandon Ayuk's injury. Debo gone.

So, yeah, and I think he can slip to them in the second. And then Sean McVeigh. He's got Devante Adams. They got Puka. They need a guy who can go there and be a slot player, the replacement for Cooper Cups. So I got the Rams figuring out a way to get burden on the team. All right. It tied in. Tyler Warren and Colston Loveland could both. They could both be really, really. They could be both top 10 picks. In fact, Mike. Thanks, Brock Bowers. Mike, you have. These two guys have got to be just calling up Brock being like, dude, thank you so much for what you did last year. They're hot and bothered about both of these guys. And Mike, you have pick seven. Yeah, I got Warren going inside the top 10 for sure because I got him going to the Jets. I could see it. I was tempted. I went Colts. Jason, you went Colts as well. Yes, sir. Which is what, pick right now? 12. No, I think they're 14. 14. 14. Okay. And then Colston Loveland.

I took a shot here. Oh. I think, I think these, these, uh, Mark Andrews discussions are not, you know, there's smoke fire. According to today, Mark Andrews says he expects to be on the Ravens. Yeah, that's a great, great endorsement. Don't you put that evil on me. If they, I'm taking the Ravens. If they trade Mark Andrews. Please don't draft a replacement. Because I've got Isaiah likely. Just let the man shine. Give him his time in the sun. I honestly, I'm going to be wrong on this pick. He's just not going to fall as far back as where the Ravens are. If they could move up a few picks, maybe. He'll probably go higher. I've got him going a few picks higher to the chargers who really do need another offensive pass catcher. If the big, you know, if TMAC and those type of wide receivers are off the board, they can.

fill it in with Colson Loveland. Mike's just going to be right on both of these guys. I have the Colts taking the second option. It's going to be Warren at 7 and Loveland at 14. I like this confidence. I don't know why I'm picking these other names. Because it's fun. Yeah, that's why. So there you go. There's the two big tight-in names. I think Kyle put some stats in there, but my live pivot might have messed them up a little bit. But according to Kyle based on the current odds. For all of these players, Jason has the highest odds to win at 37%. I'm not surprised. We call him chalk around here. And then Mike at 33%. I'm at 31%. And there you go. You like that nickname? You've been searching for a nickname for a year. Chalk could be. That seems good. Chalk. Chalk. Chalk. Chalk is a bad name. That's not a great name. No. Jalk. Get over here. Chalk. Let's not have that one stick.

You don't go back. Doubles Duff is not relevant anymore. Yeah. You're only single stuff. We're searching. Yeah. Okay. There you go. We've got a draft coming up shortly. Please join us on the live stream tomorrow. It's going to be a lot of fun. Ballerslive.com. 6 p.m. Eastern, 3 p.m. Pacific. Ballerslive.com will take you right there. We'll also tweet about it. Falcon still employed. He'll take care of getting the word out on the live stream. Look, if you need a. A party catered. Something to eat. He's got a great way to do it. Yeah. Just go grab the boss's credit card. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It was one of the greatest thing that's ever happened. Normally when an employee steals $2,000 plus from you, it's not a good thing. It was the greatest thing that could have ever happened for the entertainment value. We were only able to give him crap on Slack from Chicago, but I just kept hearing.

from Andy, you know, Andy's very empathetic and he's just like, the guys here are destroying him. Oh, he was being. He's in a sweaty puddle. He was being destroyed. And I've just never been more proud of the team. Oh, my gosh. Then when they were. Oh, there wasn't a, I didn't hear the AI song. Oh, I missed on that. There was a quote from the girlfriend that we can't share on this podcast. Yeah, his girlfriend was not compassionate in the traditional sense. She did the right thing. Yeah, she was honest. Al Borland made an AI song that's not, you know, it was well done. It was a bop. It was a, I mean, look, look, it's not appropriate. So we can't play it. Yeah, well, 48 orders on the company's time is not appropriate. Oh, it's not inappropriate. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I mean, there you go. Maybe we'll share it on socials at some point. Let me ask you a couple other quick draft questions before we close it out because I'm just curious.

People want to know who we want Arizona to take. Oh. You know, so this isn't who I want Arizona to take as a Cardinals fan, but as a Cam Scadaboo Trouther, I think it's a good destination because his comp to me has always been between like, like when I've watched him, it's a James Connor or a Marchon Lynch type of play style. And so if we already have a team that kind of fits his style of play, it would be nice to have him like. be next in line. The issue with that is I really believed in Trey Benson. Like, I don't want that mess. That sounded like a past tense statement. Well, that was a believed. Yeah. So you no longer believe? I. What does Trey Benson not have that Ben Senate has? Uh, that's being a tight end. Like being a tight end, if you don't do a bunch in your first year, that's okay. Also, you've got to see Trey Benson. Yeah. We were disappointed by what we saw. I saw plays from him.

Yeah, I just, it's, you guys wanted him to take over, and James Connor, he's not about that. That is correct. He's like, no, thank you. I was saying of for, I don't, I wish I saw more out of Benson, but a draft pick of Camp Scataboo is not a full declaration of whoops on Benson, but it's, I would just, I would love starting that letter. So I would love for Scataboo to. be a day to pick. Here's your silver lying on Trey Benson for what it's worth. And I don't think the Cardinals take a running back because of it. But I think the team really likes Trey Benson. He still, he still ran for 4.6 to carry. He was hurt two different times during the year. Wow, that's so much higher than I remember. Yeah. So he actually, he had plays. He flashed at times. It was just his utilization was so small. He only had 63 carries on the year. So.

We just didn't get to see a lot of him because he was hurt. I guess what I'm remembering is like week two. Maybe that's what's standing out of my head. You mean the 11 carries for 10 yards? Exactly. Yeah, it wasn't great. It's week to 11 carries here. I know that was the blowout game against the Rams. So that was cleanup. You know he was 5.5 a carry from that point on in the whole season? All right. We're back. We are so back. That didn't take much. I did love Trey Benson last year. Oh, you're both back. Is there any blockbuster trades you want to see happen? Anybody want to see a move right away? I certainly want Kirk Cousins. I want George Pickens. I want George Pickens gone. Do you have D.K. McAf is that way? No, I have George Pickens. I want him to a team that is going to adequately throw the ball. I want Kirk Cousins to become a starter in the NFL because if he is a starter after the draft, then that just helps more wide receivers for fantasy. That's a huge one that I would love to see. What about you, Andy? Any dreams floating around in there?

I mean, I'd like to see Mark Andrews traded for very little. Oh, you just. Why do you hate Mark Andrews so much? It's so weird. I don't hate. I just want him traded for nothing. I don't hate him. I just want him out of the league. Like a seventh rounder and then have the team cut him immediately. I want it publicly acknowledged that it's done. It's not done. He's 29 years old. He is so done. He's so done. You're going to leave the burger on so long. You're not even going to like the bite. I mean, this coming from Mr. Well done over here. I've seen you order burgers. I do not order well done burgers. Oh, yeah. You burn those things to a craft. Medium well burger. What's wrong with that as a normal burger? Medium well might as well be charred. Medium well is the standard. That's the standard. That's not the standard. Yes, it is. Medium's the standard. Not for a burger, no.

If you order a burger, they give it to you medium well. At a fast food place. Yeah, I was going to say, you don't have to specify a fast food place, and you do get a medium well, you're right. Wow. Do you guys like medium burgers? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Versus medium well? Yeah, little pink. Yeah, little pink. I want a little pink. That's medium well. Medium well is not a little pink. Yes, it is. I'll go medium rare, brother. There's no pink in a well done. Just slap that meat, grind it up. That's all I need. You don't need to cook it. I'll just, I'll bite a live cow. Yeah. You want.

your burger done a little bit. You want to cook some of that. Yeah. Medium. Medium. Well. Not a little. It is well. Okay. Well, we're done. Enjoy the draft. Everybody. See you for the live stream.
