40:33 ↗

I agree. Probably, yeah. Most people will be off. I don't know. Not this guy. Not this guy. You're taking them no matter what here on the rest of the career. Any of these last, I'm going to give you five names. Anybody stand out that you want to mention for fantasy purposes here, Ray Rice, all indications are no interest, no interest from any teams yet. Ben Tate. That's so weird. Ben Tate, I've never seen a career in faster than Ben Tate's. Anton Smith.

41:01 ↗

He's 29, but not a lot of tread on the tires. Likely that Stephen Jackson and Jekrhus Rogers are gone, so if he returned, would he be good? Daniel Thomas? Oh, my gosh. I'm never drafting that guy. I'm never putting him on my team. Now, Daniel Thomas is much older than I thought he would be. Yeah, because he's... I thought he was still like 25. Yeah, he's terrible. Chiquiz Rogers is only 25. He's another of the Vreen mold, probably.

41:29 ↗

more of a third down guy and actually was a good past blocker. Those five guys, anybody excite you? I'm almost falling asleep reading their names. The only one who is slightly interesting to me is disgusting to say what is Ben Tate. If you look as we all vomit, if you look at the Cleveland games, when he was healthy, and more importantly, when Alex Mack, the center was healthy,

41:59 ↗

He had some huge games. His being cut seems to have been a product of not getting along with the coach, getting mad that they were given my boy, the crow. Caca! Giving him Cary's and Terrence West, which is a side note of just mock drafts where people are taking Terrence West in like the 11th round. Why? That's dumb. That's dumb.

42:28 ↗

I think he should go higher. No, I agree. That's what I'm saying. It's dumb. People are completely all in on the crow. That's stupid. Which is, yeah. I'm not saying Crow is not good. I'm just saying that's classic case. It's the same thing I think has happened with C.J. Anderson. People are jumping. I'm not saying C.J. Anderson can't produce. I'm not saying that Crow can't produce. But you don't take the other guys competing for their spot in preseason and throw them at the back of the draft or non-draft them at all. Yeah.

42:58 ↗

So I thought that was a very interesting thing, and if that happened, I would be drafting Terrence was gladly in that range. So what I was saying about Bent Tape getting cut was because he was crying, and then he got tossed around the league to Minnesota and Pittsburgh. Played a playoff game. Fumbled. Yeah, and if I recall, actually, the start of the Pittsburgh game,

43:27 ↗

I was really surprised how well he was running, especially for a guy who just doesn't know the systems floating around. Of course, he fumbled and was sent to the bench because of the fumble. But if he lands in a good situation, I wouldn't mind taking a 12th round pick on Ben Tate. Yeah, it just depends where he lands, I guess. But he is young, and it's hard to say.

43:56 ↗

Of all of these guys, because I am a very big CFL fan, they just excite me a lot. I think, you know, the Montreal Alouettes are really going to look at Ray Rice. And so I think that that's who... So if you're playing fantasy Canadian football. Yes. You, is this... Is there a podcast market for that? The Colts are playing fantasy Canadian football with Duran. With Duran Carter, the barely paid, but...

44:26 ↗

some reason tweeted about guy um that's that's my list of of worthy running backs to talk about here um one thing we do want to mention is that we will be having a inaugural season for the fantasy footballers redraft fantasy league we got a 12 team league and there are two spots available uh for our listeners so if

44:49 ↗

We like to laugh. We probably need your real name as well. If somebody wants to Photoshop Jeremy Hill tattoo on the Mike Wright's chest.

45:19 ↗

To go along with my real league. Might get you in the league. It might. Another piece of information for you is I think we'll be back next week talking tight-ins. I believe it will be a tight-end quarterback. Tight-in quarterback combo. Yeah, that makes sense. I can't talk about Julius Thomas that long. It's going to Jacksonville. Oh, my goodness. Don't you just know that's a done deal? Yeah, it's an absolute done deal. Don't you just know? Here, here, prediction. Julius Thomas to Jacksonville, Randall Cobb to Oakland.

45:48 ↗

Yeah, that's gross. Isn't that suck? That'll be so sad. I mean, I still have... If you're a Jacksonville fan, congratulations on wasting your free agency dollars on a guy whose numbers were inflated by Peyton Manning. I mean, I think Julius Thomas is fine, but as a player, it's just tough to see these teams repeat the same old mistakes over and over again. Any other news before we shut it down here?

46:15 ↗

Uh, just reminder will be on the lookout for the new website. It'll be up in the day. Whoa. Oh, it's so, it's so gorgeous. Oh, I thought, wow. No, that was, that was yes. Wow. That'll look at this website, the fantasy footballers.com. Yeah. Do we know when we're going to get that live? I said the next couple weeks it would be my guess. I think that makes sense. Today, Jason's saying today, because he did.

46:38 ↗

All right, well, get your browser on auto refresh. Home page. Be on the lookout. I'm going to have a couple more articles on Fantasypros.com. I'm writing a piece on second-year players. Nice. And I will also be writing a Do Not Draft Wide Receiver Edition. I love it. I love it. That's awesome. I'm going to shut us down, but first I'm going to make it a prediction so that you have it here on February 24th. James Winston.

47:07 ↗

will be a good NFL quarterback for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. I'm on board with it. James Winston will be a successful top 10, not this year, top 10 quarterback. This is the guy who's sitting doing a podcast in a Max Hall number six. Arizona Cardinals Jersey. He doesn't.

47:25 ↗

He's not a good quarterback. Max Hall is a good quarterback. I say that there's a good chance Max Hall calls the show to try to get that. Yeah, his family was nine. I was, for a little trivia, if anybody ever comes across the question of who was the man that was able to purchase the Max Hall jersey while he played in the NFL? It was Jason Moore. It was one print limited edition. Do you know how many people listening are saying, who is Max Hall? Everyone listening. Everyone listening is. See that ex-Boise quarterback that got arrested for cocaine? Yes, he was. I thought he was.

47:55 ↗

BYU. Do I say Boise? Oh, BYU. You're thinking of Kellyn Clemens. I was not thinking of Kellyn Clemens, but that would be accurate. All right, this is the Fantasy Footballers podcast. Thanks for listening. We'll be back next week. Goodbye. For listening to another edition of the Fantasy Footballers podcast.
