Trade Betrayals, Film Standouts + Major FF Questions - Fantasy Football Podcast for 6/7

Take a shot. Seemed to be a little heavy and struggled with some of the heat. This is the kind of reports you're getting right now. Do you care? I mean, he's been accused of levels of apathy with the workout routine, even going back to his Jacksonville days. Yeah, I don't care too much. We do talk about, you know, how negative news is probably more true than positive news, although, oh, he's in the best shape of his life. Oh, he's ahead of schedule. Oh, he's looking good. Those things are just fluff pieces nonstop. When someone comes out and says,

that a player's looking a little fat, a little slow, struggling with the heat, is probably the truth. Now, it's so early. That's not the quote from the report. It seemed to be a little fat. Oh, that's my interpretation of seem to be a little heavy. As a fellow fat boy, I feel like I'm allowed to say that. That being... Jay Grays as well. Yeah, see, you get it, Jay. Does this do anything for Rashad White?

No, I don't care. Rookie running back, drafted, very talented, behind the scenes. I mean, if this quote came from John Brady, then I'll care a little bit more. All right. But I think that trust is just too strong right now. Dalton Schultz, frustrated by a lack of progress on a long-term deal, he had been franchised, said he's not going to come to the rest of voluntary OTAs. Good for you, Dalton. Please don't. Please stay away and get a contract because.

Dalton Schultz is one of the most, we've got a wild card episode coming up in a couple weeks where we're picking range of outcomes that are very crazy for a player. Dynasty-wise, Dalton Schultz is a wild card. He is so young, he is so important to this offense, and he will be good. It's really hard to not draft him, but then when I look at Dalton Schultz, when he signed the franchise, here's the trajectory I have for his career. He plays one year and is very good for the Cowboys.

He plays good enough where he hits the free agent market and goes Austin Hooper and signs a big deal for some other team and is irrelevant for fantasy the rest of his career. But if he actually signed a long-term deal with the Cowboys, you're talking about a very valuable piece. So get that deal done because you play this year as a franchise tag player. You're not a cowboy next year. Doesn't it make him more of a target right now then before the deal? Because it's not like he's not going to be on the field.

Like this doesn't end with him sitting out the season. Yeah, that's fair. He's going to take his money. You're saying trade for him in Dynasty. I'm just saying maybe you target him now because the odds are that something gets done with Dallas and worst case you play this season. Yeah, and some people might interpret this news as, oh, maybe he sits out. And so I've got nothing. So maybe you could trade for him cheap. That's not what the news is. But yeah, maybe kick the tires. DeAndre Hopkins will be a full go for training camp.

And not a full go for the start of the season. Yeah, I'll miss six games. So, but he can play in the preseason, Jason. He's allowed. Well, that's fun. Please don't. Just stay healthy. He was coming off of an MCL surgery. So this is still great news for a good, important fantasy piece because oftentimes his MCL surgery wasn't brought up.

because you already knew he was missing six weeks. But if he's already full go for training camp, then great. Traylen Burke's dealing with asthma. That is slow news day. Oh, man. Gus Edwards held out of voluntary OTAs, which is the same as Dobbins, right? So both of those guys, there was an initial report on Dobbins. He was doing some pass catching drills to the side from a jugs machine type of work. But both guys torn ACLs last year within a few days of each other and then.

Not quite ready yet. Deerunis Johnson, one-year deal with the Browns. So gets $2.43 million. Still seems likely that he'll be their depth piece behind Nick Chubb once next year comes around. Yeah, I think that you've got Kareem Hunt. No contract negotiations with him ongoing. He's in the final year of his deal. So Deerunist seems like he could.

take a step up in the future when Cream Hunt leaves. This isn't a, the 2.43 is fully incentives. I think it's about 700,000 in guaranteed money. So it's just nice. It's rewarding a player who was very good when called upon last year. All right. Any other news, Brooks? No, sir. Any other gallbladder related or asthma related news? Nothing.

No. No growing related news. No inhalers on the ground. I just checked growing index.com, no updates. By the way, it's Traylon Burks. We learned that this morning. Not Traylon Burks. It's funny because early in the offseason, we were calling him Trailin Berks. Yeah. And then we felt like we were doing it wrong because we heard it was Traylon. Yeah, which is not. But according to Traylin. Himself says it's Traylon Burks. Yeah, just illuminating.

things around here. By the way, quick reminder, if you've already got the Ultimate Draft Kit, lots of bug fixes, little things, updates, upgrades have happened.

I see three deusers. Oh, Jay Gris says he doesn't want it. Okay, thanks, Jay.

Um, that's nice to... Any volunteers from the deucers? Oh, I see, I see, I can see all their faces right now. They are hiding. Yeah, I tried to hide. They do not want this at all.

was brilliance from Al Borland. You know what happened. You're right. Al was so terrified. He was so terrified of being the one called out that he's like, let's just do it together. I saw his face the whole time. Brilliant piece of management back there. You saw right through that, brother. You can also dial the voicemail hotline with a question 302464 TFFB. We're going to kick it off with a voicemail.

Hi, Ballers. This is Dan out of Maine. My question for you is, is there someone from this past year who you kind of forget how good they are until you see them on tape? Like, I thought Hunter Renfro, you forget just how good he is until you watch them play, and then you're reminded. Is there anyone that comes in your mind when you hear that question? Thanks. Have a good day. Players, you forget how good they are until you see them play. There's one name that jumps out to me. It happens every single year.

maybe because people spend the offseason trying to talk up his backup. But Dalvin Cook, every single season you walk into game one and you go, oh, yeah. Like he's way better than Alexander Madison. Way, way, way, way, way, way better. The player for me is a player that is always undervalued, which makes sense. Because you don't ever think it's him. You don't think it's his doing. But I actually watched a couple clips recently of Brandon Cooks.

Dude is really good. That's a good one. He's just always wide freaking open, streaking down the field, catches whatever you throw at him. And he doesn't get enough credit for just being good at football. It's like, oh, he just catches a long bomb. It's like, yeah, there's some reason. There's going around him. DJ Moore. I'll put that out there. Oh, that's nice. Because I'm going to give DJ Moore anything I can right now in the off season since he won't get anything during the season.
