Liar Liar + The Leftovers, Mike Sets a Trap - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/25

That one's great. I think it's true. And then I think the Michael Gallup one is true. I've never seen him even sniff that part of the field. I. Yeah. Excellent Dodds. Yeah. We were going down a bad road. That part of the field. Darn right. So I'm locking in number three is the lie. What do you guys want to do? I totally believe.

Number three. O'Dell Beckham was drafted in 2014. Is that correct? That's my memory. Don't look at me. I believe that is true. If that's true and you got those first couple years of dominance out of the way, I'm going to believe that's true. I'm going to say Michael Gallup hit the slot. Okay. I mean, just won. He's just got to be there once. I know, Kyle. I'm going to get this one right. Mike, what are you locking in?

You guys both going to be wrong again, or are you going to go with mine? Fine. Fine. I see what's going on here. I will go with number one. I will take Alan Robinson has not been a number one fantasy wide receiver in a week in the last four years. The number one. All right, what is the right answer here, Brooksie? The lie is number three. Larry Fitzgerald and Odell Beckham Jr. They had the same number. I believed in you, Jason.

Yeah, I'm feeling pretty. See, here's the thing with Kyle. I'm in the mind of Kyle right now. Yeah, you are. But see, when, when Jeremy comes up with a lie, Jeremy just makes up a full lie. When Kyle comes up with the lie, he's like, I'm going to take this and it's one off. Footballers edition. Yeah. Yeah, so. That's dirty. That's lying and cheating. There was just no way. Dirty cheating liar. There was no way that Larry Fitzgerald.

got into the top five. He might not have a top five. He literally is tied with O'Dell Beckham. Oh, is that the answer? That's what I'm saying. This lie is like... Okay. I missed that part. I was too busy gloating. All right. Well, you better... Yeah, you better get a right this time. Knock him out of the park. All right. Wow, these are... Very wordy. These are wordy. Number one. Since entering the league in 2005, Ryan Fitzpatrick has played in 165 career games. And yet our hairy-chested hero...

has never played in an NFL game against the Green Bay Packers or the Buccaneers. Really? Okay. So he played for the Buccaneers. So, I mean, that that could make sense. I know that and this is a... He's never played in the Packers Division, has he, on any of those teams. He's never been a Viking, never been a bear. I believe that. I know that Kyle has been doing an entire write-up that I'm super excited to read on Ryan Fitzpatrick. I believe these are, all three of these are Ryan Fitzpatrick facts.

Yeah, well, one of them is going to be like one digit off. All right. Number two, you're very bitter. When Fitzpatrick was drafted in 2005, he was the 14th and final quarterback off the board in the seventh round at pick 250. Of the 255 players selected, Fitzpatrick is the only draft pick left currently on an active NFL roster. So it would be the last remaining 2005 draft pick, right? Yeah, okay, I can believe that. Yeah, maybe.

There's two. He was drafted at pick 252. Yeah, there's two different facts in that bullet. So I don't think that's the lie. Yeah. Okay. I'm not sure I want to listen to you, but you could be right. Number three, Fitzpatrick, Fitzmagic, has thrown for 34,97 passing yards. This is impossible. Thus far in his illustrious career. That is the same exact distance from the footballer studio.

to State Farm Stadium. This is impossible. Where the Arizona Cardinals play. That's yards. So what is that? I'm not doing the math. 5,280 feet and a mile. Times three and then put it into miles. That could be true. It sounds plausible. But come on. Also, Kyle's got a lot of time on his hands. Yeah, we got to get him working on. Now, I have a lot of pressure because I want you do to whoop him.

I'll get mine out of the way. I'm locking it. It's impossible. It's number three. It's just, it's too impossible. I'm right there with you, Mike. I'm not in Kyle's head like Andy is, so I will lock in number three because. So you both think that one's a lie. Well, it's stupid. It's impossible. So I'll go with the stupid one. Michael go with the impossible one. Same exact distance. That is tough because then you're down to the feet. He threw 34,9006. Kyle.

I am bitter. You're right. You're upset. I do not like losing. Are you getting angry? Oh, that's true. We have lunch. Are you getting angry? You don't want to see me angry. So just to stay here for a second. Fitzpatrick, the 2005 one, how many years is that? The 16 years? Somebody else from 2005 has to be around, right? Not necessarily. No, no, no. That's not the one. The, the, uh.

Oh, yes. That's the one that you said has two facts in it. Right. I don't think he's trying to lie about him being the 14th and final quarterback off the board. That's correct. I'll jump in and say that. Yeah, that's absolutely right. So the lie would be if he was the only draft pick left on an active NFL roster. Now, wait a minute. Did Brooks just give it away? No, I think it was just trying to clarify. Yeah, that it wasn't a gotcha.

Now, is there a numbers game to be had here? I'm switching my pick to number two. The lie was one, three, and would Kyle give us the lie on two? So you have the lie is each of the numbers. You know what I like it? I'm a little, I don't think he would. I think he'd double up. This is what, I mean, fantasy football is a game. And you got to play the game. And we love to beat games. Man, do I go with you guys on number three? I'm not on it. No, he's on number two now. You switch to number two as the lie? That's right. I'm going to go with number one.

I think he's probably played against the Packers. Before Brooks reveals this. Yes. Great work, everybody, because we got the lie. At least one of us got every single law. That's right. Okay. So this is a unanimous. Kyle lost, no matter what. Together we. Take that. I'll go. Let's see what happened. All right, what happened? The lie is number two. A new Brooks gave away. Aaron Rogers is the other player that's on an active roster.

Dumb. Yeah, because he's, the only way he would know that one part of that was what he was going for is if it was the lie. I don't know about that. So you are telling me. But I should have thought about somebody like Aaron Rogers. We really screwed that one up. No, get that crap out of the way. We are the exact. Oh, yeah. Current Ryan Fitzpatrick passing yardage. From the stadium. From the stadium. Right this moment.

But what if we're like at the front of the studio? Well, I think I think the general... That is impossible. That is... How do you even find something like that? At what point is Kyle... Why does Kyle even look there? Like he goes, hmm, 34,000, 977. That sounds like the amount of yards. He doesn't live in this state. Like, and to even look that up, this is why he's the editor-in-chief. To me, that means he must have started this category of liar-lier with this one.

It had to have begun with like... Which quarterback was it? He looked at the yards from the stadium to our... That's where you start. You look at the yards between the stadium and us right now. And then you find a quarterback that matches. And he's like, oh, goodness gracious, it's Ryan Fitzpatrick. But the fact that anything is... That any quarterback has the exact yardage is just mind-blowing. Okay. Well, um... Hit it. I'm going to try to. You want me to get it? Yeah. Breaking news. All right. We have an update.

The Colts are resigning T.Y. Hilton, a move that their fans have been waiting for. One year deal. Yep. I think it's the right thing to do as the Colts. Yeah, they did not have a lot of pass catching weapons. You had Pittman, who is still a complete question mark as to, you know, he showed some flashes of greatness, but didn't do a lot, wasn't good with the deep ball. And then, of course, you've got to supply weapons for Carson Wince. You trade for him. You want.

to set him up to succeed. So it makes sense to bring T.Y. Hilton back. I'm still reeling from not beating Kyle. I am sorry. We banded together and beat him. That's a victory. I thought I was going to go with number two, but I really didn't think he would do the thing where the lie is one, three, two. Now you know. All right. Let's jump into the mailbag. Mailbag. Mail bag.

By the way, the article that Jason was talking about, it's 25 Ryan Fitzpatrick facts to make you rethink your life. That last one makes me rethink my life. And that's on the website. So let's jump into a... Do you think just real quick?

Kyle actually won the FSWA award for article of the year across the fantasy football industry this past. Is that why he wrote this? Is he going for back-to-back articles of the year? Yeah, I think once the panel reads this current Fitzpatrick one, he will back-to-back it. Yeah, I mean, they're going to have to rethink their lives. It's true. Let's go to a voicemail question. What is the best transaction you've ever made while I'm the crapper?

Well, on the crapper. Also, I thought I was right in the middle of a ransom video. I was scared. I was like, where do I put the money? The first part of that was too distorted when he said his name where he's from, but I had to get that question. I believe that was Batman from Gotham. I need it again. Yeah, let's get that. What is the best trend ever made? While on the crapper. All of them.

I have your children. I don't know what the best... What percentage of your... Let's ask that question. What percentage of your transactions are on the crapper? Not very many. Not many of the transactions. The news, the looking up, you know, what's going on, maybe looking at the activity of the league. But when you've got to have focus on... What is the best transaction you've ever made? You've got to have a... Focus. Focus.

The timing of his delay is so incredible. It's great. I forgot. The third time I forgot that he was going to keep talking with on the crapper. Well, what's our best transaction? What's just the one that, you know, looking back, we're like, thank goodness for X, Y, or Z. The best trade you ever made? I can't ever, I can't remember a trade I've ever made. I've made a hundred. I've made good ones, bad ones, great ones, terrible ones. And I can't remember.

The only one I can remember is terrible. I always bring up an older one with Arian Foster, and that was a good trade. Or not Aaron Foster. I'm sorry. Angela Williams. I'll bring up one that I'm so very proud of in our Dynasty League, and that was shipping out Todd Gurley to pick up Dalvin Cook the year before his kind of top consideration emergence. And so I was really, you know, I got a haul. I got Dalvin in like two number ones or something to get rid of Todd Gurley and timed it right.

This could go sideways, but I really enjoyed my trades at the end of last season and Dynasty. I traded away again, Todd Gurley. It's always great to trade Todd Gurley. Just in general. Got some picks and David Johnson and traded away. Julio got some picks and C.D. Lamb. Oh, I also did a trade in that league where I gave up John Ross and I got Mark Andrews. That was one of my favorites. Now.

After you did that, the next two championships, who did they go to? The person that you made that trade with? Who was me? Oh, you overcame. The best transaction I ever made was in 2013. Did you look this up? Well, I wanted to look up the stats. I already knew the trade. I just wasn't sure what year it was, but it was 2013. Julio Jones was my wide receiver one. He went down.

after five games. And then there was all like that was the news rapidly rapidly was like, well, he might miss this week. He might miss. Oh, Julio's out for the year. And I traded DeAngelo Williams, who was backed on the Panthers. I traded him for Antonio Brown. Oh, boy. Turned into the wide receiver four that year. And then was my keeper because he was the best the next year, the best the next year.

Third the year after that. You held him forever. It really sucked. The fact that like Antonio Brown had a stretch of complete dominance and it was one hundred percent on your team alone for that that entire stretch. It was the worst. No question. I remember it and I still have nightmares. All right. Taylor in Calgary, Alberta. Oh, bonjour. Big fan of the show from up north. Bonjour.

I am not sure which wide receiver I should keep for next season. Between Mike Evans or Michael Thomas. Oh. That's a pretty easy one for me. Really? Okay. It is not for me. But I will go Michael Thomas. I will go Michael Thomas as well. He is the clear-cut one. There aren't a lot of, you know, whatever you... I did the best transaction he's ever made. Wait for it. Sorry, man. I had to.
