Has he ever thrown a pass? If he has, he completed it. It had to be for a touchdown. Okay. All right. Dynasty question on Instagram. New 10 team dynasty league startup draft. Who ends up going number one. Whoever is taken there? Who would I take at the 101? Yeah, I think that's the question, Mike. What a dumb answer, Mike. Well, phrase your question better. Who goes 101? If it's me, I would take Tyree kill there.

Inside the episode
104 passagesYeah, I would assume the risk. Right, the risk because of the off the field stuff. I keep going back and forth in my own head between Devante Adams and Tyreek Hill. Less risk, but more age with Adams. But it would be between those two players for me. Is Stefan Diggs in the running for you there? No, no. He's the next tier down on wide receiver. Tyree Kill is another answer to what player jumps out on film even though you know they're good.
As well, because every time you watch him, you're like, wow. It's not fair. No. Because what's crazy is he can stop as fast as he can go and he can go real fast. Yeah, and has stayed healthy. Yeah, that is, that is weird. Despite, because he's got the same disease that Mike Williams has, which is he goes up and he falls real hard to the ground, but he seems to stay pretty much healthy. Less mass. Less mass to fall to the earth. Yeah. Imagine you jumped up his eyes. Oh, I'm injured.
I'm injured. My only hope is that the cushion of, we'll call it. Did that cause a divot? It's called the crater. Yeah, the crater in the turf. We are not nice people. No, that was the worst one. I know. Mike, Mike just jumped in. We love you, buddy. I know, I know. You wouldn't cause a crater. No, just a large divot.
I'm not killing no dinosaurs over here. I'm just going to hurt people while they try to run through that area where I fell before. That's it. Rope it off. Rope it up. Yep, we're going to get the groundskeeper over here. Jay fell again. I mean, the odds of you getting that high in the air. I know. That's what's really dumb about this and being lost in the equation is even though at our step ladder appeared on the field. Even though at our.
Combine. I did have the highest high jump. I sure did. Check the tape. Oh, my gosh. Yeah, we have checked the chase. These quads don't lie. Cheater. All right. I should let you have that after what we just put you through. Oh. Did you say these quads don't lie? That's right. Is that the name of your album? The fourth one, yeah. All right.
Oh, how do we keep going? How do we miss three albums from Jason? Well, no, no, no. I've released zero. Oh, you're building up to it? That will be the name of my fourth album. What's your first album? Well, it's got to be something with a single. I mean, quads, you can't come out with a quad title on album one. Oh, I get it. I get it. We're moving on. Hey, ballers. This is Alex from South Carolina. Is there any chance to faint go into the 2021 season with Taysom Hills or starting quarterback?
And if they do, what is his dynasty value in a super flex league? Thanks. Bye. There's definitely a chance. I agree. I mean, right now, it seems like you'd have to say it's between Taysam and James, even though, you know, they could go after a different free agent. Those two guys could leave or James could. If he is the starter, though, I think his dynasty value is very good. Well, if Tassum Hill is the starter.
What are the chances that he enters the season? Because he signed a two-year deal, if I remember, right last off-season. So he's on one year right now. What are the chances that he goes into the season without an extension? Well, I know that Saints are not in a great cap space. So unless that extension could actually help them cap-wise, and I don't believe it would looking at his contract, I think he would basically be on a one-year deal. So you'd have the danger.
from a dynasty outlook of saying this guy could just be a one-year quarterback. But my belief is that if Tayson Hill is the quarterback for the Saints, they'll be a good team. They'll win the majority of their games, and he will be back after that. So I would view him as a top 15 quarterback because he runs the ball. That's always good for fantasy. But a top 15 with some risk.
Yeah, the risk is just is the contract. If Tayson Hill had an extension right now, he would easily be a top 10 guy for me, despite, I know he's 31 or going to be 31 or something like that, really hasn't played much, but he was tremendous for football and he's going to run a bunch, and he was actually pretty accurate. All right. Andrew has a question, which over the hill veterans still have several years left?
of value in dynasty. Tom Brady. Players who everyone is dumping on because they're too old but can still provide solid value on the cheap. Yeah, it's not even a joke. Like it's a joke, but it's also the truth. I genuinely believe Tom Brady is talking about an extension. Right, which is not a joke. It sounds like a joke. It's not. Yeah, Tom Brady probably has three solid years of fantasy production left and I don't know what genetic quirk you can have.
where you can win seven championships and gain a bigger chip on your shoulder? Like he's proven every, he's done everything that should make anybody just rest on their laurels. And yet I know he's going to come back hungrier next year than he did this year. Well, because all he uses, he's always hungry. He's looking for meat. That's what he did. He took it out of his diet and was like, I'm starving. There's only. Oh, there are they over the hill players, quote unquote, over the hill.
Is Julio in that category yet? He's still high price, though. You could take your shot on, like, Hilton. I think T.Y. Hilton, there is a strong chance that T.Y. Hilton is D.U.N. Yep. There is a strong chance of that. But I think that he, I think what he has left, it could still be a value to NFL teams, and he could be a veteran and still give you a couple more years. What about Melvin Gordon?
Does he have value? Yeah. I mean, he's a starting running back right now. And so all starting running backs have value. I'm trying to think. Todd Gurley's done. Correct. Trying to think of some older names. I think this could be true. I think Adam Thielen could still have like two or three years left. And I can tell you right now that if you poke the manager who has Adam Thielen, they look at him as, man, I've got to.
I've got to get something now because it's over. Right. He's older. And I still think you're going to have two really solid years of fantasy production for Thielen. Okay. I can't really. Grankowski. I would. Does he even play? I don't know. Does he come back? I think so. Things went well for him this past week, past year. And things like every thing that could go right for his fantasy value went right. Yeah. So I would be out.
He's not multi years of value left. You guys want Zach Hertz on your team? No, thanks. Okay. Yeah, we've been beaten down. Sleeper tight-in question. Is Adam Troutman a valid tight-in sleeper going into the next season? He is to Mike. Yeah, he is to Mike. Yeah, I think he's, if you're calling him a tied-in sleeper, yes, I think that is valid. And that's under the premise that Jared Cook would leave. Correct. All right. Dan, in Ontario, would you trade A.J. Dillon.
No. For the seventh. You haven't even heard the rest of the question. There has to be an answer of yes potentially for that. For Tyreek Hill and Alvin Camara. Oh, I shouldn't have committed. Yeah. For the seventh overall pick in the rookie draft. That's a really good question. That's a super interesting question. Seven overall. I would say. AJ Dylan will not have the backfield to himself. There is no chance of that. No. I, I.
I think that what happens is Jamal Williams will be back, but it will be. He'll be passing downs back. It'll be 1A, 1B. Dylan 1A? Yes. That's how I see it shaking out. It could absolutely go the other direction. If you need a running back, I would not trade him for the 107. There's going to be probably a really great wide receiver there. But here's what we know about A.J. Dylan, at least, okay, see if you agree with me. I saw enough from A.J. Dylan.
on an NFL field that tells me he belongs there, and if he has given a shot to produce, he's going to be a good player. I agree. And Aaron Rogers will open things up for his skill set. Meanwhile, the 107, that is not a given. You have the rookie fever. I get it. I got the rookie fever, too. But you could be drafting Jalen Rager at the 107. It's such an interesting question, because let me just look at the outcomes here. What if they pay Aaron Jones?
Sure. If they pay Aaron Jones, I don't know if we see Mike that day. I'll be very sad. I mean, because what's the dynasty value of AJ Dillon at that moment in time? Almost non-existent. No, I completely disagree that it's nonexistent. He's still the backup in Green Bay. Jamah, if Aaron Jones was a bank. What's the dynasty value of a backup running back is the point, though?
You're one mishap away from having a starting running back for a high-scoring offense. I'm in between where you guys are. If Aaron Jones comes back, Aaron Jones is the clear-cut front runner. He is the fantasy option. However, they won't bring back Aaron Jones and Jamal Williams. I'd be surprised financial if they do that. So that would at least vault A.J. Dylan up to a more relevant combination because Jamal Williams was very relevant this last year, but obviously not.
someone that you would love. Now, I don't expect Aaron Jones to be back because they have AJ Dillon. They might actually resign Jamal Williams much, much, much cheaper and have a one-two punch there. So Jamal Williams could be someone that you could target in a dynasty league. It's really just a matter of what do you believe is going to happen with Aaron Jones? Because, Andy, you bring up the perfect point. The range of outcomes here for the... I mean, Dylan could be a top 10 type of upside if Jones left. Agreed.
But if he doesn't, then the trade value goes so far down. And you're still gambling on the 107. Sure. So the way I see it is, why would you not gamble on the, you have the proof that if Dylan is the starting running back, he's going to be very good. And he's going to score a whole lot of touchdowns. Yeah, I mean, it's silly because this is obviously what the question is, but it kind of feels different if I were to think about drafting.
AJ Dylan at the 107. Like, I would definitely do that. Right. So I would rather have AJ Dylan. Well, we're going to know, right? Yeah, by the time. Yeah. I mean, it'll be nice to know after the free agency. Yeah. And then after the draft, that 107 becomes much more clear as far as how many great players landed in great landing spots. What's the first negotiation day where they can whisper in the bushes?
about signing contracts? I like that they still call it the legal tampering. Why can't you just call it negotiations are open? Isn't that the, that's not the legal name for it, is it? I think that's what they still call it. What? Yes. Legal tampering. So that's just people having a conversation. Why tempts people? We are definitely legally doing, why do you have to clarify this is legal? Is this the purge? We got one night a year. It's okay. Yeah, and if it's, why is it tampering?
It's not. Tampering is illegal. Like legal. That's why I don't think it can't be the real. I'm telling you this is what they still call it. And it's, you are saying this is a, a legal, illegal activity. All right. Legal jaywalking. Legal stealing. Also known as the crosswalk. Legal jaywalking. That's right. That's right. So that the legal tampering period starts on March 15th. Beware the eyes March.
Two days, the 17th opens up free agency. What does IIDS mean? The middle, I believe. Really? I've never known. I've heard that phrase a lot. I've known I need to beware it. He's typing real quick on the whole keyboard. It's just 74th day in the Roman calendar corresponding to the 15th of March. Not so sure it means middle, but could. Good. At the middle of March? Sure. There you go. I stand by it.
Twitter question from Holt Will 33. Which starting quarterback would you most want to go on a long road trip with? I feel like we've answered a question like this before. Probably. Well, let's answer it again. Road trip with an NFL player? Yeah. Starting quarterback. Oh, started quarterback. Let's rank them from worst. Worst Russell Wilson. That's all I got. Yeah, I don't think he would make my list. So he'd be like, I'd have 31 and then that's it. Chandler, Canton, or Russell Wilson?
Car ride across the country. Give me that. Kenton Zarro. Okay. We've really turned. I still think Baker would just be a blast. Yeah. I would love to just share a car ride. Share some jokes. That'd be fun. Man, I feel like Baker, like, you'd start out well, and then he'd find, like, you'd be at a rest stop and you'd find some other people that are cooler than you. And he'd be like, I'm going to go with them. And he'd leave. Yeah. So once you run in here, we need some more cheese it's. And then you come out and he's gone.
