You even read his like throw in Marcus U suck line that he threw into his league mate. All right, best trash talking memory, pre-draft during drafter in season. I don't, look, I'm sure I have a bad memory, so there are probably better ones than this. But I do remember when I traded, I don't even remember the pieces. But remember when I walked into your office, Jason, the Javid best related situation. I believe I traded you Javid best for a one or something like that. And Javid best went.

40:39 ↗

down the week after something to that regard i just remember the feeling i had in my body when i walked into your office you know chest i don't i don't remember that so much as the joick bell drop okay that was that was pretty good this we got pre-draft we're pre-draft oh he said he said pre-draft during draft or in season yeah you didn't hear it i read it i didn't read the whole question yeah okay so let's tell the joick bell one because the joick bell one was jason and i

41:08 ↗

Jason had joick bell all year. Jason drops joick bell right before the playoffs. If you ever wanted to know why Andy has somehow has like a personal affinity and connection to joick bell who is terrible. It was because of this. And what's crazy is I had him. Who is now terrible. What's crazy is I had him because of his playoff schedule. His playoff schedule was great. But I had to make a move a couple weeks beforehand. I didn't think anyone would pick.

41:33 ↗

up joick bell it was a week i i don't remember if he was down or injured or what was going on but i didn't think someone would pick him up so i tried to make a sneaky drop to grab another guy as a defensive move to play so i get into the second round of the playoffs and and he had picked up joick bell who i had just dropped and he uh played him and smoked me with joick bell who went off my own guy who i dropped it gave to you that was that's like one of those

42:00 ↗

terrible, terrible fantasy moments if you're on that end of it, where you're like, I could have prevented this from happening to myself. Now, that's not really trash talk, though. That's just a good experience. I would say the best. Oh, I spent the next six day, weeks trash talk. The best trash talk, though, that happens in our league happens via pictures. It's just when something happens, you know, the meme type pictures of just putting up a picture of whoever it is. Someone smiling or something. I love Andy, Andy loves to take websites and like,

42:28 ↗

redo their titles and redo their content and take a screenshot of a fake website that just really makes funny. Yeah, and Jason likes to post articles or pictures that just disparage my players so nobody wants to trade with them. Right after I put them on the block, he'll post something negative about them. And Mike's just always nonsense. Yeah, I keep it going. My favorite thing to do, though, is we do a live draft.

42:53 ↗

And every year I somehow get a theme song. There was a particular year, it was turned down for what by a little John. That's right. And so I like, I will play the music as I'm walking up my pick to be announced. And then I'll like just stand there and dance because I've made the greatest traffic in the history of the draft every single time I'm up. And so I like to do that every year. Find a new song and then just dance. Yeah, you're the worst. Yeah, you kind of are.

43:20 ↗

Um, thank you. Yeah. And if you can just imagine that over and over and over whenever he did anything. I would play the entire build. Oh, it's the worst. Mike, Mike is the gloat king. When things go right for Mike,

43:38 ↗

Watch out. You don't want to be around. He's the worst title. I mean, Jason's been pretty bad as a champion this past year. Mike is the worst. All right. Golly in Houston, Texas. Hey, footballers. What are your thoughts about Frank Gormanette Forte and Latavius Murray? Who would you pick and does age and experience Trump youth? It depends on the situation. I don't think there's a hard and fast rule of age experience over youth or vice versa. As far as these three guys, I like Latavius Murray the best.

44:07 ↗

I still think that he is a guy that can really show up this year behind that offensive line for a team that wants to run the ball. He was a top 12 running back last year. And I think there's a good handcuffed situation there where you can get for a very fair price, D'Andre Washington, who I still don't expect there to be that kind of, you know, 50-50 timeshare. I think it's going to be Latavius or he's going to get yanked and it's going to be Washington. So that's the situation I would like the most.

44:36 ↗

uh for where they're going into the draft what say you guys yeah i would go murray and i have forte in front of gore when you're combining just overall draft value i would prefer frank gore over forte

44:50 ↗

All right, that is it for the mailbag segment of the show. I want to remind everybody about our Ultimate DraftKit at Ultimate DraftKit.com. Jason just got our defensive rankings up there on the site. We're going to have a top 200 and a half point up there. This week. This week, the top 200 standard and top 200 PPR is going to be up there. We already have all of our advanced expert rankings, all of our stat projections for 2016, and we have 100 plus videos.

45:15 ↗

What month did they put the June? It's going to be my. Yeah. Man, you hear that. You perk up quickly.

45:45 ↗

45:54 ↗

Send them over on Twitter at the FF ballers. Send us questions on the website. We'll answer them for you. And the feedback for the draft kit has honestly been incredible. We've had so many people tell us that it's an incredible value for them, better than anything that they've used to draft before. And we want to make it better every year. This is going to be a staple of what we do. So give us your feedback. We're very open to adding new things and making it better. So like I said earlier, we have a running back show tomorrow going through more of our running back rankings.
