That's what he said. Big announcement. Wait. Oh, is this official? Yes. All right. It is? Yeah. Yeah. It's as official as it's going to get.

But I've agreed to play in a fantasy league this year, this upcoming year, with a number of... So it's a celeb league. It's a celebrity. Some true goats. Some goats. Some A-listers. Yes. Obviously, I'm in it. Yeah, well, I said A-lister. Right. A-nameers. A is for Andy. T is for T-pane. Um...

Well, I don't know about that. I'm not even supposed to be talking about that. I mean, this is still on the hush. Oh, goodness. Are you breaking a NDA right now? Probably. But. But I'm Hugh Jackson. The greatest coach. And I may share a figurative football field. We may play in a league together. It could happen. We need a weekly segment. Oh, okay. Of trade offers made to Hugh Jackson. Done. And whether they are accepted or rejected or countered.

Yes. That will happen. What it do with you? What it do? What it do with you? Fantastic work, Mike. But you have to, everybody, just keep this on the download. It just has to happen. I mean, right now it's locked in, but you just don't know. I will only tell my closest friends who are listening to this. We're not recording, right? A few hundred thousand of my favorite friends. So if it, if it materializes, if this comes true, which I've committed to it.

And from my understanding, so has our good friend. Yeah, there will be trade offers. There will be a lot of them. And I'll see if Isaiah Crowell is available on the free wire. Welcome into the show. We have a mailbag today. We're playing a game on today's show as well. A reminder, Ultimate draft kit.com. Head over there. Learn more about the number one.

draft tool that you need to get ready for the upcoming 2021 season. If you're playing in a Dynasty League, you can get the UDK Plus. That'll give you instant access to the ever-evolving, getting better every day. That is correct. Dynasty pass. We didn't just make it and say, job well done, everybody. No, we got college profiles up now. Yes, college player profile. To be fair, everyone could go look at those, but there are parts of the college profile that are strictly for the...

people who are using the UDK Plus. Yes. And so there is a lot of, it's neat because normally you're kind of waiting for the launch of the full UDK, and right now you get access to a ton of dynasty tools. And there's a lot happening in the NFL. We've got franchise tag deadlines approaching. We have free agency. We have the draft. And as things change, we improve and update and modify both the dynasty pass and the UDK.

so that you are up to date with the most recent information, which lets you take advantage of your league mates and win. Just the ultimate goal here is to really take advantage of those, air quote, friends, you know. Yes. Pay attention. It's not my fault. It's the less fortunate in your league that aren't listening or part of the UDK.

Twitter at the FFBallers, the fantasy footballers.com is the website with the ranking starts it tool during the season, and we'll have some draft tools this off-season, player profiles, and a whole lot more. You guys doing well today? Oh, I'm fantastic. I don't know, but the Wolfman has vanished. Yeah, you've got a, you've got your hair pack. Fantasy Hot Man, am I right? No. Well, probably not. I don't know. Ask the studio audience. They are loving it. Loving it.

Thank you, everybody. I appreciate it. It's another year with Mike around here. It's another year with Mike. Jason, no haircut for you. Not usually. Doesn't need one. Doesn't grow quite so fast or thick. What if you could just lock in exactly what you have? Right this moment, right now. Oh, like a really good interest rate.

Right. Lock it in. Now it's not going to get any better. You can't do anything to improve this. Or change it. Like you've got to commit to this look in case it, I mean. Yeah, I would definitely lock it in. Lock in those locks. Oh, very nice. Mike is really on top. He's on top of his game today. It's going to be a good show. All right. Let's play a game. All right. We're playing who am I. I have no idea the answer of this. I have not looked at any of these clues.

I am participating with you guys. Clue number one. Who am I? The 119 targets I saw in 2020 was the second most in my seven-year career. Ooh. 119 targets. Second most in my seven-year career. Okay. I have some names popping into my head, but then I think I'm wrong. I have. I'm nowhere. I am a blank slate right now. Do you want the second clue, Jason?

Now, if I guess, you're locked in. I don't get to participate as the game goes along? That is correct. Oh, man. But you would get the most points possible from this game. I do have a guess, but I will not give it with only that clue. All right. Here's the second clue and see if it stacks up. I had the 10th most receiving yards among wide receivers in 2020 and the 10th most since 2017.

Wait. What? That is confusing. So the 10th most since 2017. So essentially you're saying the top 10 of this year. That's how it sounds. Would be the 10th most since. That doesn't seem like a good clue. That seems like an inaccurate clue. Yeah. I don't know. Those are two separate stats. 10th most receiving yards amongst wide receivers in 2020. Okay. And 10th most since 2017. I'm not tracking.

I am not either. And Brooks is not on the microphone today. All right. Also 10th most since 2017. This game sucks. I'm confused. All right. Go to the next clue. All right. Next clue is I have been a top 15. Oh, good. From that sweet clue? Yeah, because I think I get how it went wrong. But you didn't explain it to us or the listeners because you want to win the game? Well, look, sometimes the most important thing is winning.

I'm just, okay, let me throw this out there, okay? What if? Okay. Because they're saying, you know, I got all these targets. I'm up here at wide receiver. Sounds like it's not a wide receiver. Sounds like it could be a, well, like the 10th most among wide receivers right now. Maybe that's the 10th most. No, I have the real, the information that you need. Okay. The stat is he had the 10th most receiving yards in 2020 among all the wide receivers. Okay. Okay. But he also has.

The 10th most since 2017 total. Oh, okay. It was just written horribly. Yeah, wow, that was real bad. But now I get it. Okay. And then the new clue is I have been a top 15 fantasy wide receiver in five of seven seasons. Got it. Locked. I've got my guess. Yeah. I've got the answer. Okay, so give it to it. It's Brandon Cooks. Ooh. Because I know he always finishes in the top 15. Oh, the. Bam!

Okay, nicely done. He's always a top 15. That's the stat that we've talked about for years with him is that outside of that, you know, the injuries, he's always a top 15 wide receiver. So what are the other clues? I've played on four different teams. Okay. But it's the last clue. My name is Brandon Goose. My initials may match one of the producers of the fantasy footballers. Oh, okay, okay. We have uncovered what was happening here.

This was all about Brooks. Brooks found that clue and then worked backwards. Yes. And just tried to twist the numbers in some stranglehold. Or he's like, somehow I got to make this about me. Tenth most this and tenth most that. Not as much money as Brooks. So he's probably, Brandon Cooks might be the one guy that has made enough from enough teams. He's very wealthy. He's not Brooks wealthy. Now rolling this back, does this surprise, because it surprises me. I wasn't on Brandon Cooks when it was 10th most.

at the wide receiver position this year? Does that seem surprising to you that he had the 10 most yards this year? That is shocking to me. What is Brandon Cooks? Is he a, I mean, he's a very good wide receiver. And that's it. He's not, he had 1150 yards. You can make arguments for or against Brandon Cooks. I mean, you can look at him and you can say four different teams. But which argument do you want to make?

I don't know. The one where like this year he doesn't do that unless Will Fuller goes down to, you know. Okay, but is Will Fuller going to be back in Houston? I would say no. No, which means he'll do it again. Does that mean we have, we are underrating Brandon Cook's yet again? Not yet because we haven't started rating Brandon Cooks this year. But I don't think he'll be underrated if they don't add somebody and he's the lone wolf there. But maybe he will because you'll have a different quarterback or something. Yeah. I can't imagine.

Okay, let's do it. We'll just check in here. Your percentage chance that Deshaun Watson is actually traded before the season starts. It's getting lower. I'm sub 15%. Yeah. I'm at like 10%. I feel like I'm going lower. I'm still 50-50. I think Watson.

Now, I guess being traded is different. I think there's a percentage chance that is above 10% that he doesn't play football this year and has to go the Carson Palmer route and sit out. I think that's more likely. I don't think there's any chance on this earth that Deshaun Watson would go to Palmer route was late career. I'm kind of done. Was it? He would lose.

He would lose a year worth of accumulation in legacy. And I don't think that that's what these tweets are about with Deshaun Watson. I mean, he's pissed. He's pissed, but he's going to either play or get traded before the season. That's what I believe. So I don't think somebody at that age playing at that level is going to walk away from the game. No, I, well, and it would be a temporary walk away. He's not going to walk away and retire forever. It's just simply saying.

I will not play for the Texans. And if they say, well, we will not trade you, it's a game of chicken. One of them has to be lying. And I think it would be the Texas. So Palmer was 31 when that happened. Yeah, that was the Oakland transition. Right. Yeah, well, he was 31. I'm sorry, he's 31 in his final year with Cincinnati. But that was only his seventh season. Yeah, he dealt with injuries. And Deshaun Watson had this would be his fifth season.

No, I don't. I'm just telling you my opinion. I don't think that's a real possibility. But you are right that it's going to be a game of chicken if they don't. It is. If he doesn't want to play for that team, what do you make of those loyalty tweets? I don't know. Watson is, I think Watson's mad. I think Watson has a legit reason to be mad. And it's because of the, I mean, the ultimate game of chicken, Watson has the largest leverage because he could just say,

Nah, man, I'm not going to play football. But he doesn't have, he has no leverage of controlling where he's going to go. When did he sign the contract? Four year, $156 million contract. Had to be last year. Last year, right? Yeah. So, I don't know. We'll see what happens. I think the highest odds are that Russell Wilson and Deshaun Watson are staying put where they're at. I agree. Jason doesn't get the level of chaos that really.
