55:47 ↗

Oh, be careful. These are dangerous. Something he would use about a certain cold-blooded individual before, but I'll apply it here. He was drafted to be this. That is the line. And it's the truth. He's a high draft capital player that's delivering on the talent. Yeah, he's great. It would be nice to get more boom games, which might mean Cam Newton needs to be behind center. Yeah, you're not going to score as many touchdowns with a bad quarterback as you will with a good quarterback. Ah.

56:15 ↗

You're welcome. In Edditch. Oh, you were calling for it. Other players that you guys want to bring up, Tyree Kill, who was last year's number one overall, fantasy-wide receiver, finished 30th this year because of the injury, but was number 11 inconsistency? Another player that will be, it's hard to look at Tyree Kill going into next year. I mean, are you taking Chris Godwin over Tyree Kill?

56:42 ↗

Because I brought that, you know, then you're talking about it's Hill at top. Wow. So if it's a no, then Hill's like at five. Yeah. He's at four or five. When, when we were talking about Devante Adams and said he's in that Julio range, Tyreek was the name that came to mind. I assume you're taking Adams over Tyreek? I will. Adams over Tyreek. That's that whole passing volume argument. Aaron Rogers. Do we want to run the football? Do we want Mahomes to throw the football? I think that those, that's a really good debate. Hill versus Adams next year. Yeah.

57:09 ↗

The last wide receiver that I want to highlight, I don't know if there's any other names for you guys, but John Brown, he finished that wide receiver 20, somehow comes in here at consistency rank number 10, because the guy was just, he was just always there living in this very nebulous place of, like, he can go off, and he's not busting, what do you make?

57:39 ↗

Jason, what do you make of John Brown's season? He had a thousand yard season. He had six touchdowns. He's the number one guy for Josh Allen. I think what I make of it is that they will definitely bring in another wide receiver because they utilized him as their number one. And he was okay. And if I've learned anything from AT&T commercials lately, okay is just not okay. Dude, those are great commercials. The, uh, the, the, the, the salari guy.

58:09 ↗

Who he changed, he had to change his name? Oh, yeah. Funny story. Oh, dude, that, that kills me every single time. That guy is very good actor. So good. I prefer the doctor. It was like, hey, guess who's back? Well, not officially. Yeah. Hashtag not a sponsor. Thank you. Yeah. Yeah. So I want to bring up a early my guy candidate for next year that I think people, he finished at 49. Ooh.

58:36 ↗

Oh, spicy. Dante. But he was, it's ironic. It's the same team. He was the wide receiver seven. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. The wide receiver seven from week 10 on, the undervalued, underappreciated Debo Samuel. Over the back half of the year, he was incredible. I don't know if you have consistency numbers for a second half, Jason. Yeah, I can pull that up. Because when you look at the rookies, AJ Brown or, you know, Debo Samuel, I don't care that much.

59:03 ↗

about looking at the total landscape of the year because these are players developing into roles, opportunities, but Debo was just playing great. From week eight on, he would have been our consistency metric number four from week 10 on number two. Wow. Yeah. So it's a good name to throw out there. I don't think people know that. They do now. Yeah, I don't think people are aware of that. I wasn't aware of how good that was.

59:32 ↗

Over the second half, Emmanuel Sanders might not be back. Kyle Shanahan led offense. Debo makes big plays, takes into rounds. I'm going to be very excited about Debo next year. Certainly. He's very talented. Not as excited as Brooks about Dante Pettis, but close. Right, Brooks? Yeah, yeah. You want to hear a wild number? A wild one, though, for Debo? Wild one. Wild one. Wild one. Wild one. Wow, God. Oh, is this like a target number or something? Well, this is, yeah, but nine targets inside the red zone.

60:01 ↗

only one red zone touchdown. Let's go. Like that, let's go, Debo. That is where you find positive regression because that's, there's an insane number. And I love how he is used in the screen game and the handoffs. This is part of what I loved about Robert Woods, DJ Moore, those type of players where.

60:21 ↗

They're more consistent because some of their targets are manufactured. It's not all down for you. Some of it is near the line of scrimmage and they're just great yak masters, you know, where they can make stuff on their own. And as an offense, if you're in a game where you're struggling, those are the plays you call. He's being used like a healthy Percy Harvin. Right. Whoa. I know. Careful with that name around here. I know. Careful with that name. Because you miss them? Yes.

60:51 ↗

Percy Harvard could have been. I know. Because of the injuries. But, and the, it's all narrative, you know, it's talking head stuff. But when they were talking about how Kyle Shanahan, why did they draft him? Because they were looking for a man.

61:07 ↗

I go, we need to find us a man with the old-fashioned. This is a man. We found him. Debo Samuel's a man. The only, look, I don't know if you saw that, but when that happened, he just said that, and then he turned. And then he turned. No, and then he turned and looked right at Dante Piss for 45 seconds.

61:27 ↗

And then he came back and said next question. And Dante Pettis didn't see him because he was coloring his hair. The truth is. Oh, I like his hair. I do too. And I love Dante Pettus' talent. Focus on the, make the main things the main things. Color of hair after you catch like five passes in a row. But they did. Kyle Shanahan wants a tough gritty. He wants a man. Now you're a man. Look, he met George Kittle and he wants a bunch of them. Yeah. That's what he wants. And.

61:53 ↗

That is the opposite of what Don George. Have you seen George Kittle on the sideline? George Kittle is literally cutting down trees. He's Paul Bunyan. Yes. But he's a real person. You look over there and he's doing both sides of one of those saws where he cut the tree down. He's managing to do. George Kittles is a freaking man. And that's what they drafted. I think Debo's a very interesting guy for next year. Very, very interesting. I agree. In fact, he, just this conversation.

62:23 ↗

makes me think about, I've got him as a keeper decision in one of my leagues that I didn't even think about him earlier on. So we want to thank pristine auction. You missed man. Yeah, I know, man. There was a man on my bench. He's listed as man. Yeah. We want to thank pristine auction. And Amari Cooper, Mike, you can get in on this. And Amari Cooper signed Jersey yesterday. I would not pay more than.

62:46 ↗

$20. It was $49. Yeah, that's fine. That's still a pretty good deal. It's pretty good deal. If you like a Mari.
