Oh, welcome in. Oh, yeah.

What was that voice? That sounded like, you're a giant cat, but you're the bad guy, and you definitely have a stoke. I was trying to take advantage of my... That was emphysema Jason. Ruined voice from the Phoenix Suns game last night. I was, you know, I could get to new places. Now, if you ruined your voice watching a sporting event, clearly you were there. Um...

I was there in spirit, Mike. The television was right in front of my face. My boys were with me. And I will be there tomorrow. So good luck with the next show. I have. Wow. You're going to be destroyed. You can't not yell at a live event. I have never ruined my voice. At home? At home. In the stadium many, many times. But at home never. Well, I asked Jason, did he watch the game with some people?

And I was expecting, oh, you know, like if I was with a big crowd at my house, I could see myself screaming and yelling. Yeah. But it was just your voice. Forgive me for loving my boys. To the point of losing your voice. You've got to learn the power of the fist pump, man. The silent. Oh, I hit furniture. That's what I do. Writing that down. That's a good tip. Because I, you know, I lost my voice like a little while ago. And I was still watching Suns games. And.

So I started bringing the, just smash the furniture. Well, and you could do the like smack, smack, smack, smack against the furniture. Absolutely. Where was this advice before last night's game? Welcome into the show Tuesday, June 8th. We are recording this Tuesday, June 8th. So show's getting up a just a smidge later today. We had the UDK release and we gave the staff the day off yesterday as a.

What does the schedule look like as far as the rest of the season for the fantasy footballers in terms of how many shows you are doing a week?

This comes in off of Instagram from Aden. Wants to know what the schedule's like. Mike, why don't you break it down? In July, we move to three episodes, currently sitting at two, and the releases will be Tuesday, Thursday, and then you get a bonus weekend show Saturday. So, you know, you're out there, you're doing the yard work, you're doing the chores. Well, Saturday, you've got a podcast to listen to, and then August through December.

That's when the marathon begins. That is five shows a week. And wait, there's more. If you want an extra podcast, if five is not enough in August, you get a bonus one for supporters at join the foot.com. Yeah, if two's not enough right now, you get a bonus right over there at join the foot.com. Also true. Yeah, three a week in July. Five. Three is not enough in July. You can get a bonus for the footcast. Voice is going to surprise me all day long.

Jason, I want to give you props before we get into the news. I mean, obviously, we've been doing the show for a while now. This is episode 1,060, not counting footcast, not counting all the just extensive reporting work that we do on the side. And you really went out on a limb, you hit Twitter, and you broke down some of the kind of finalists. Look, I just shared what my sources were telling me about the...

possible destinations for Julio. There were a few of them. Yeah, you broke down maybe like 20 of the most likely destinations. And to your credit, the Titans were one of those 20. I was right. I told you all. Eat it. And so I understand why Pat McAfee brought you on the show to break it down and one for one. Yeah. In your reporting. There will be many more. I found a way to be.

very accurate. I figured out who Jason is. He is, uh, in this reference will not hit with you guys. So this is for the listeners at home. Okay. Uh, he is Pete from the Disney Christmas Carol. So if you want to, if you want to figure that out what Jason is right now, that's who he is. All right. News and notes from around the league presented by sleeper. Just to pull the room since I haven't introduced our producers.

Al Borland, Judge Giamatti. Did that reference land for either of you to? No, sir. Not at all. No, that's what I said. It's not for this room. It's a deep cut. It's for Mike's children. One out of five. That's okay. Mike's kind of a one out of five. Yeah. Everywhere else. Once you look it up, you go, oh, of course. You're the Fulton Reed of the show. Do you get that reference? Yes, I get that reference.

Because I am cultured. You get that reference, Jason? Yes, but I'm curious. Remind me. Who am I? I want to look this on. Pete from the Christmas Carol. Well, Pete's the big guy from... Pete the cat. Oh, okay. All right. Yeah, he's a cat. We really need to talk Julio Jones right now. All right. Julio Jones was traded to the Titans.

It was Julio and a 2023 6th rounder for a 22 second round pick and 2023 fourth round pick. It will save the Falcons $15.3 million in cap space. And the Titans who, after losing Corey Davis, Adam Humphreys, Joni Smith, they looked a little bit suss on the offensive side of the ball. It was A.J. Brown and dot, dot, dot. Josh Reynolds was a sleeper candidate, maybe.

Ferkser was hanging out there as Next Man Up, and all of a sudden, Julio Jones arrives, and this team looks completely different. Last year, Corey Davis, 92 targets and 14 games. There are plenty of targets for Julio in Tennessee. So let's start. I mean, this is going to be a – everyone wants to hear the full breakdown. So let's start on the Tennessee side of the football. Impacts to A.J. Brown, to Julio, to Tana Hill. What was your reaction for –

for the Tennessee side and this destination for Julio. I think this is great for Tennessee. Absolutely phenomenal. You can't just add a wide receiver like this usually for a second rounder unless you are trading with Bill O'Brien. And so, you know, usually this nets you like Muhammad Sunu and instead you're adding a first ballot Hall of Fame wide receiver. This is a very good landing spot for Julio. It could have been far worse. Yeah, it's probably the best landing spot.

other than staying with Atlanta, which we knew was no longer a possibility. Look, the salary cap is, as imaginary as it has been, the salary cap finally got somebody. And they had to move on from Julio Jones. So I'm with you, Jason, that going somewhere where he can at least maintain a very nice target share. I mean, not that he wasn't going to do that, but he goes in and.

With all the vacated targets, the vacated target should there, he is still really solid for fantasy. For perspective, last year, 17 game pace for Atlanta versus Tennessee. Atlanta threw for about 1,000 more yards than the Tennessee Titans did. So efficiency is the name of the game. Now, they've proved it over several years being able to be efficient. Ryan Tanahill could still put up big fantasy weeks. AJ Brown, even sharing Target share last year, was great.

But I do think that there may be a little bit more of the boom bust ping pong between these guys a little bit through the year. Do you agree with that? That there may be some games where, look, the play action pass opens up a deep bomb for Julio. But then the next week, it's a Derek Henry three touchdown performance. Yeah, that's certainly what will likely happen. And we went, so we updated our rankings.

you know, as soon as we possibly could after the news broke. And it did, I mean, the only person who moved up for me was Ryan Tannenhill. He is, to me, is the true benefactor of this getting Julio Jones in that trade. Like quarterback seven last season. Yeah. So Ryan Tanyhill, I didn't go out of control. I mean, Ryan Tannenhill, but he jumps into my quarterback one range again. For Julio Jones, the biggest question here is,

He's always been great for yardage, but Julio touchdown Jones was just like a fun bit on the show. And we've never really gotten gaudy, like out of control touchdown numbers from Julio Jones. And going to the Titans, he will have to increase those because the yardage will be there, but will the touchdowns be there for Julio Jones? Because right now, Julio is sitting as a lower range wide receiver two.

for me while AJ Brown is still in the wide receiver one range. I think you're the lowest on Julio right now based on our first pass at the projections. I think Jason and I are very, very similar in the 14-15 range at the position. You're 100% right. Now, I think that that, you know, Matt Ryan's had struggles in the red zone for a long time. I think that the efficiency can improve for Julio.

but you will need it. You will need touchdown. So I think he can get to double-digit touchdowns in Tennessee. I really do. But that will impact the level of consistency you get from him. Yeah, I have Julio right now as my wide receiver 16, which is, you know, a solid wide receiver 2. But that's not normal. We all have Brown ahead of Julio. Yes, we do. I expect him to be the number one target in Tennessee. Okay. Upgrade for Tannahill. He's got two great weapons there.
