The event also serves as a lead-in to a special return of Evan Silva, bringing back a long-time fan favorite for redemption and community engagement. Throughout, participants discuss position-specific trends, such as the rising value of tight ends and the risks of over-relying on early projections. The host highlights the importance of using tools like ETR rankings and solver analytics to manage exposure and optimize team composition. A strong community presence is evident, with fans sharing personal stories, draft philosophies, and even social observations like the "wanted poster" meme. The event concludes with a well-balanced team featuring multiple high-value players, demonstrating a collaborative, strategic approach to best ball drafting.

I'm at like 95 right now I'm trying to max both bbm and the milli maker Okay, yeah very well very well when when were you last on was it the spring was it earlier than that was like Maybe like six weeks ago eight weeks ago Okay, yeah, yeah, very nice Yeah, what's uh what's new since then for people who don't remember I believe last time you were on you were talking about some of the prop bets you had done Trying to dunk a lot been going on um I really appreciate the positive remarks you had to say about the little ventures doing with um A little fantasy website. I did so you inspire me. I bought a lawyer. I got a legal opinion I'm trying to get operating in 22 states soon, but I'm just talking to bankers and Uh, it's been a lot of bureaucratic help, but I hope to push through and get live for the NFL season Yet to refresh my memory on this because I vaguely I vaguely remember what what were you working on? Yeah, um weekly DFS lowball So you just want to score as little as possible and I'm also going to run a full-season Uh, guillotine one and done league so you can pick you set a DFS lineup every week pick wherever you want You can only use a player once per season and then the bottom like if there's a hundred people the bottom six get chopped every week So it's just a single player score that your or you feel a full lineup. Oh, you do fell for lineup. Yeah, so you feel a full lineup. So like Um, you know a lot of people like pick CMC super early because like he's gonna get hurt and then he doesn't and they just have dust for the playoffs or They are too conservative and they have nothing That's fun, dude. Well glad to see that you've been sounds like you're uh coding up a storm over there. I really am I really am and I'm also a certified chat rat now you can see me Haydon people being nice to people. I'm I'm in the streets. Oh wow. Wow. Where where are these these chats taking place? Only this show. I mean, oh, there's there's so much content, dude I try and watch a good amount, but uh most I always tune in for this one live Love to hear it. Uh appreciate that. We do have some friends and family in this draft. I see Len Keith. I see TM Longacre Of course Aaron here. We got the 111 Let's see what we're working with here. You got the lamb gentie cook barkly by ADP who are you interested in here? I am interested in CD lamb. Let's do it CD lamb come on down at 111 slides a little bit past ADP I don't think it's quite uh-oh worthy quite yet Do you have a running back you like to pair him with here at the 22? You know, I've been hearing a lot of good buzz on Kenneth Walker. I'm sold on it Yeah, if this person snipes us we can go say quon Yeah, oh he does. Yeah, it's kind of Walker. We can go say quon. They couldn't hear us in time. They didn't snipe. There's a five second delay There you go uh barkly Uh and CD lamb to start seems nice. Can't complain with that. It is nice. It is nice. I was hoping for a player I brought I brought props. I got my chain I got my sunglasses. I was hoping to get Justin Jefferson. I was going to hit a gritty for the stream Yeah, I am I do If that's what I ran to get well, we were uh taken five seconds between when I got to pick every week I'm out here. I got my my stupid little props. I'm like I'm gonna get on stream. I'm gonna hit a gritty We're gonna get Justin Jefferson. We're gonna weigh a million bucks Wow, and we missed it on uh and now what did you just crack? Why you are you're ready to go here? We got a trader Joe's sparkling water. Okay. Very nice. I got the topo Chico going so we got little little fizz here What else have you been up to this summer? I mean that's cool. Here's his last cost three times as much. It's whatever It's my special little I have my topo Chico's down here and I do it as a treat like it's not a daily thing It's like literally like once every 10 or 11 days. I'm like, oh, yeah topo Chico Cool, but guys like you have little guys like me on the stream. You just you know show me up No, man, look at size wise dude. This is a mini. This is Okay, maybe you're not seltzer mugging too much. No dude. You're getting more ounces than me. I only six and a half fluid ounces here dude. All right, all right What have you done anything else this summer? Have you left your your apartment? I have I have I'm out Uh, what am I doing? Going on a lot of first dates. Just got back from the lake with the boys. That was fun I got my draft and biggest coming up in like three weeks. Should be fun. That's your annual homelike draft homelike draft. Yeah. We are hosting that. You know some people throughout the Sapphire club, but that was looking a little prohibitively expensive. Also, a lot of people got girlfriends and wives. That wasn't looking like a good idea. He got shot down and we are going to be at, there's like a, it's called beer park. I've heard of that. Yeah. My buddy Mike Cikarian, I think, has hosted some events over there, said it's a good spot. Yeah. It's good to know. Yeah. They provided a board and like a trophy. I'm like, I'm not flying a board from the East Coast. So that'll work. I just actually ordered because we're doing the ship chasing meetup in Austin this weekend and I got our draft boards. They're actually very easy to travel with because they just fold up. It's not like a, I don't know, like a cardboard type of thing that would be a disaster to travel with. But yes, it's nice that they're going to accommodate you as if they've hosted fantasy drafts before. That sounds cool. Yeah. Yeah. All right. Yeah. Oh, no. We got time. Yeah. We got time. Everybody's taken their sweet time in this BBM here. I mean, I will say like yesterday was an insane news day. There are a ton of projection things that have changed. Some, you know, pretty meaningful injury stuff, specifically with the Niners, this Ricky Pearsall stuff seems really bad. The neighbor stuff seems really good. Anything else that's kind of on your radar to look out for in this draft. Dude, I can keep up with all this stuff. I definitely don't want Ricky Pearsall obviously. You know, make sure you got your ETR ranks refreshed all the time. I am trying to draft a lot more like today and yesterday because I'm like, people are still taking Ricky Pearsall like pick 100 and you might just be dust. Isn't it how crazy that goes? Like everyone just assumes he's healthy, full off season, and then we go from swelling to there's concern. All options are on the table and everyone's like, oh, fuck is he even going to play this year? What a what a game we play. It is so fickle. I feel so good about all my guys and then I just you need to remember that like 80% of your labs are going to be dust just because of one reason or another. Like you don't have the guy or you know, say quans only mids or you know, you just got to live with it. So Breeze is the faller here. We're on the clock. There's Kyron. There's a lot. I'm an ADP little demon. I'm slurping it up. Dude, I'm right there with you. Barkley, Breeze, and Lamb. Yeah, man, did something happen with Breeze Hall? ADP 28? Pick 35. That seems good. Yeah, he's actually on the jets. Oh, fuck. I did. Yeah, yeah. Tell me that before I clear your ass. Dude, I pay for these whole overlays, just like remove the projection in the just put New York jets. We will not be doubling up on jets. I don't want to do that. Kyron Lads. Lads great. Lads great. All right, let's do it. All right, we'll take Lad McConkey here. So we start Barkley, we start Breeze Hall, CDLAM, Lad McConkey. I mean, that really is the thing with the jets. I think you can include the Browns, the Titans, where it's like you can make the case that a lot of the individual pieces are strong values, but how much do you want to be loading up on a single team? Yeah, you know, I, you know, those little memes where it's like the bell curve of like the idiot guy, like the really idiot guy, the really smart guy, you know what I'm talking about? I can send it in chat later. Either way, there's just like the really idiot strategy is just draft good players on your teams. And I think that's also the really starts smart strategy. Yeah, the bell curve. Oh, here's the yards per route run. I got all the shit. It's just like just draft a good player on a good team. Like take it here in McClure and take a Lad McConkey. You don't need to like convince yourself that Garrett Wilson's going to be the guy, unless he's falling this far. Well, we just convinced ourself Breeze Hall is going to be the guy, which I'm good with. I'm just I'm an ADP demon. I like to think that, you know, I'm growing as a bestball. I'm on my bestball puberty. I'm trying to figure out am I a chess Liam guy? Am I a J.J. Zacharyson learn to be a best baller guy? I'm figuring out who I am. I think I'm just an ADP demon. I think I just want to get 22 percent of my team's advance. And then hopefully I can just make one of the playoffs. I saw the inflammatory Ibuka in round two pick from Liam. And I'm like, I don't know how this could ever be good. Yeah, you know, the the old, you know, reached to be unique argument. You know, we have it every year. We did a long show on it on off and on the clock a couple of weeks back. But yeah, I mean, the that one, it's it's hard because it's like, I mean, I heard him. He explained it. He came on the swelkass and he explained his reasoning, which is essentially like, I'm going to add, you know, three, I'm basically going to skip, you know, what was it, round three, or he's like, so I'll just assume that the landmine or sorry, I'm going to skip round two and I'll essentially have three round three players on my team, which sure, whatever. Like, I mean, I would argue that you're sacrificing too much projection relative to Drake London and Nico, especially with a guy that you could also take in the mid third and get with those guys. I'm definitely open to the the idea of tears being really flat and being like, you're always taking Devonte Smith in the beginning of the third and you're never pairing what Gibbs or Bijan with a guy like Lad, who's going on the other side of the board. Like that stuff, I think I'm more open to. Yeah, certainly. If I'm at one of the ends of the board, I find myself having to reach a lot more, which is why I generally enjoy being in the middle to get all that ADP because I mean, you know, I'm big solver guy now as I'm growing, figuring out like the solver. And just the combos I have of like how much Nico and Gibbs, how much Jordan or Jeremiah love and Gibbs, it's just, there's just way too much and I need, you need to get unique in these sides, but like people will let you get unique and ADP in the middle. So like, you'll have not, you'll not be overexposed any combos or and you'll still get the ADP value. Did I want to say, yeah, you just referenced it. When we drafted last, you were, I think you said you were just ETR ranks, but no overlays, it sounds like you've, I'm in the solver in the dark side. Can we switch to see that? Let's see here. So we are about to be on the clock. It's pretty much all yellow here. Watson, Tate, Rome, Brian, Thomas. I love that. Yeah. Yeah, me too. I'm good with him. Yeah, he's my highest draft in this range. Him and Tyson, always good with either of them there. And yes, if you want to get the solver, like Gividadius bike, like me here, get the combinatorial ownership up here, really balance your combos, see your exposures, you can get 20% off with promo code Pete. Have you learned anything about your portfolio now that you have the solver up while you draft? Yeah, I mean, the main thing is the draft, what do we want here? Yeah. Rome, price, Tyson, you can pull up. Yeah, we can go Tyson. Yeah, why not? Yeah. I'm a fan. If you go to the queue in the thing, it'll show you the exposures to every or not the exposures, the amount like the draft capital allocation. Yeah, yeah. That has been really helpful for me. I think that I've been going way too crazy with running backs. And you know, it's nice to have this thing tell you that like you got two running backs to like at the early browns, like you're fine. Like you can end with like four or five, like you can fill it out with a checker. Like I don't there's always a good running back to get and I find that I'm full. I used to fall in the trap of like just spending too much on running backs. You can only start three. That is, it is true. It's very true. You should fill out your roster unless you get a crazy value. You know, if you need another wider receiver, if you only have two wider receivers, you can be drafting your fourth running back. I mean, that's an unpopular opinion in this day and age of our sim rule bestball world, just because those sims are, you know, pushing a ton of really heavy running backstarts. Did you catch bestball breakfast? Do you see how many running backs in a row, Pat and I draft it? I did not. How many? I believe it was six. We I think we took Tony Pollard as our running back six. It might have been seven. Yes. It was a lot. It was a lot of running back. All right. You all right. Yeah. Good luck. Yeah. I'm always operating these drafts. I'm always trying to find anybody trying to show off and stream and take Zachary branch at 130. I'm in the drafts with you. I'm I'm sneaking on people. Wait, wait, people are taking Zachary branch at 130. I mean, one of the touts took Zachary branch at 130 on the on the stream. I think it was the hosted stream. Okay. All right. Yeah. Everything's a blur at this point. Yeah. But I believe it. I believe it. You got to go. You got to go get your guys there. But look, hey, I think we're some Pat to go as ADP demons, as we're calling ourselves here. We go CDLAM, Barclay Breeze Hall, Lad Maconkey, Christian Watson, Jordan Tyson, nice spot here with all of our quarterbacks still being available other than say hurts with Barclay, but DAC, Herbert, love and shock there. So we'll have lots of ways to land this plan. Yeah. That is one thing that I always look for when looking for guys in these mid rounds is like, I don't want to take someone that already the quarterbacks already go and like DJ Moore, like I want to get the stacks in. And I don't really want to have to like reach for my guys or like go on stacks. So like someone like Jordan Tyson and Christian Watson are good because like they'll probably fall back to us at that ADP. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, this is now been a pretty typical quarterback run that you see here. The McClure and Draftor pulls up Daniels Burles with Higgins. I guess May doesn't go to the the AJ Brown Draftor in this case, but you get hurts to Devonte Smith. Everybody stay in their lane here in my 101st Best Ball Draft with give a daddy a spike. So what's next on the roadmap for the contestors? You're spinning up. - What's next in the roadmap, dude? I thought that we lived in the post-regulation era and you could just trade on anything at any time and Trump was president, but it turns out there is a mind-boggling amount of regulations. So I am trying to get through that on top of my W2 day job and it is tough. So hopefully I can just get through this stuff and start offering contests before the NFL season starts. - Is it just applying for a lot of licenses? Is that what it is? - We're about to be on the clock. - Yeah, so there's both the quarterbacks here that stack up, DAC and Herbert, there's Jane Reed, there's Chuba, there's Harvey, Lawrence, Rico. - Justin Herbert runs, DAC doesn't, let's click him. - Yeah, we might, behind us, let's just check. Yeah, he's gonna take Lawrence. So we might be able to get both of these guys if you're interested, but let's grab Herbert first. We get Herbert with Lad. I'm guessing Len is gonna grab Lawrence with one of these picks and then what else are you eyeing here? - I'm not over the moon on Chuba. We could try and set up the Green Bay Devil. What's Jordan, loves ADP right now? - Love's ADP is, let's see here. It is 113, so where do we get? - We'd have to, yeah, 107, 110, that's in play. - No, this is too risky, we're too public. If someone's gonna snipe us, let's go to DAC. - Yeah, let's get DAC. - I think the DAC and Herbert tap here is nice. You get them both stacked up with their wide receiver ones. We have a strong base at quarterback running back wide receiver now. We probably could have pulled off the thing, but guaranteed to quarterback stack that value, that just feels nice. - Yeah, definitely, and this is where I like to be, where I can take a third guy, if I need to, at a good value, otherwise I don't wanna mess with any of that. For sure. So here's the team guys, Lam, Barclay, Breeze, Vlad, Watson, Tyson, Herbert, DAC. It sounds like you're probably mixing up your builds, a good amount. It sounds like not quite as running back, Hebby is maybe the meta. What have you been doing with tight ends? - Tight ends just, they fall when they fall. If I can't, I've been clicking a lot of Loveland if I'm on the left side of the board, but I mean, it's hard to get people. I was actually really underweight Brock Bower's, because I got caught by fake news that he got a hair transplant in Turkey in the off season, and I'm like, this guy's not locked in. I need to know that he's not just trying to look cute for photos. I need to know he's got his mind on football. And now, turns out, still bald, fake news. I need to up my exposure. - There you go. It sounds like you might be someone who reacted to the CJ Stroud photo of him, looking like he was waltzing into seventh grade English class. Have you adjusted the ranks from CJ Stroud having no motion? CJ Stroud, no motion Twitter looking up right now. - No, I'll pull it up for you, and I'll pull it up for the people here. Yeah, they covered this on ADP chasing this week. This was the finish. - That's a someone you want to draft. He's not concerned with, they think. - Okay. - He woke up in the morning and he wasn't like, how can I get my drip good? He was like, I'm so ready to pass. And they're like, you forgot to think about clothing. He's like, I know, my brain is so full of routes. My brain is so full of Nico Collins targets that I just put on what I had to. - It's so funny too, because it's not just the outfit. It's even like how he strolls in. Like it really does feel like a kid who just does not want to go to history class right now. I love it. Yes, the chat mentioning, Silva does look different. This is Evan Silva. He has been, you know, really getting fit. He got the frosted tips. You know, he's a new man here. No, this is give a daddy a spike. Silva will be here in a little over an hour. Rest assured, I am drafting the bash. This is how the programming will go. For the rest of the summer, we'll do a couple of drafts with the bash and then we'll have the randomizer as part of the same streaming block. We have the nine, 11 pick coming up. Never forget and 10 to here. Anything that you're thinking about positionally with our 224. I was going to say it's nice to be on the same program as ETR, the closest I normally come is when I send my sex jokes on the Monday morning solo cast. Yeah. You get the contact high from Silva today. I do, I do. Let's find a bear we can draft late. Colcomat last round. See now, I mean, I would normally panic, but allegedly I need wider see for more than I need running back. So we can slot and save your worthy Ricky. We're not be slotting in. We love ADP Ricky Pearson all is dust. Yeah, so looking at this range here. Yeah, I mean, I don't love these running backs. I am a kiddle bull. I don't mind the running backs. If you want to grab a third here. No, let's look at wider see for Jacobi Myers is ETR darling. He's fine. He sure is. Yeah, let's do it. All right, Jacobi Myers come on. He's our wide receiver five. Yeah, the only issue with this too is I mean, we have four high end guys, the more you're drafting here. I mean, we're probably only taking one more wide receiver. So I do like keeping a little flexibility, you know, Tre Harris, Orion, Florinoi, some of those guys here, we should probably keep a spot or two open. I'm going to look at running backs and tight ends. Mason, kiddle, Bill, Jones. Yeah, I'd say one of the running backs or kiddle probably makes more sense. I like that Jordan Mason's definitely been getting a lot of buzz. I didn't buy it at first mostly because I have too much air in Jones, but I'm ready to pull the trigger on Mason. Yeah, I'm good with Mason here. It sounds like you're maybe a little more skeptical on kiddle. I'm not super skeptical on kiddle. I just would like to get Jordan Mason before running back. It starts looking a little bleak. Yeah, I do love kiddle. I, you know, kiddles always on the BBM winning team. So I guess we missed that ship. But I mean, we need a third running back. Yes, Herbert Prescott. We have Barclay Breeze Hall in Jordan, Mason. I do think you were you're right there. Let's get that running back. I mean, it does really thin out quickly by the next time we draft. And we can always catch up here at tight end. Have you done any, have you done any four tight end builds? Have you pushed it that far? I, yeah, but that's just from a contact high of hearing all you absolute sickos. I just hear the words four tight end and go, OK, sure. Why not last four picks? I'm just absorbing all this information. I don't know what the Sims even do. I like PPR Tyler's take on it. I just drafted against him yesterday. I think I got a better draft score on BBMDB. Get fucked, kid. But I don't really know all the Sims work. I don't know why four tight ends good. I do it a lot more on the other site where you have 20 picks and it's full PPR. But here, I'm just like, I-- I don't really, I'm not really trying to scramble to get Evan Engram on the team. How often is he going to send it? The helicopter is left side gone. Evan Engram is going to have to deal with the north field. Let's see. Do I even have a single Evan Engram click this year according to this 0%. Yeah. No, I mean, the four tight end, it is-- you're kind of trying to thread the needle, right? Where you're like, if I'm doing four tight ends, I ideally want it to be my last four picks if I'm doing this. On the other hand, if I miss that window where you look here and it's like, once Cassicki comes off the board and you're in this Parkinson Engram Nejoku, I click a little bit of Washington. But it's like, you don't even want your fourth tight end probably coming from these names. No, no, certainly not. But I feel good about this pushing the tight end because we do have, you know, kiddos, the only one who's come off the board here. And ideally, I think we get like a running back on a tight end at this next turn. Yeah, yeah, let's get some tight ends. Let's pull it up. Sean says, has the next hashtag been posted? You know what? We will do that right now in honor of a-- in honor of Silva coming on. Let's do the big dog. We're just big dog. No, the B-I-G-D-O-G. Hashtag big dog if you guys want to come on and draft here before Silva. But right now, we need to figure out what we're doing here. We do have-- you could go like-- I do love Keaton Mitchell on Herbert teams. You could also go all in on the chargers with Gatsden. We also have, you know, the likely Goddard strange tier here. Yeah, let's do Keaton. Also, we got a doc Ricky with a sole result. Ricky, yeah, I mean, come on guys. It's all time to screw it up. Well, it weights your ranks, not the ETR ranks against it, I think. And you still have them at like 100. Yeah, you're right. I need to add in the-- I mean, it is ETR ranks, but I need to update them. Yes, if you X-O-Y receiver, it'll give us better suggestions in those other things. Yeah. All right, let's do this here. Oh, I love it. Goddard likely Gatsden. So yeah, the question is, is do you like any of those guys enough to pass on the correlation? Or how do you want to play that? You're talking to an ADP demon. You're asking me to take him 15 picks ahead? No, sir. Well, I don't like that. We will be taking Dallas Goddard. OK, Goddard's like the reach across the aisle. The happy medium pick there. We can make that happen. Let's see here. Flannel versus pizza full on Keaton Mitchell, slapping now. I wouldn't say full on. I will say, you know, my thesis. and people have heard me say this, but it's like, we're all paying a Mike McDaniel tax on this offense. But if it hits, Mike McDaniel's offense is gonna crush, in which case I want a lot of pieces. So when I have Herbert, when I have Ladd, like all of a sudden, Keaton becomes so much more of a screaming target for me than as a one off. But yeah, man, I like the Herbert Keaton Mitchell thesis just all rolled into one. - Can I ask a question? What the fuck is a wanted poster? Everyone keeps saying wanted poster. Now I have the ability to talk to it inside. What does this mean? - Well, you know what, like a wanted poster, you know. - I'm aware, but why does everyone says Keaton Mitchell wanted poster? It was a real quote. - Because Mike McDaniel, like when he came on and before free agency, he had two wanted posters for Alec Engold and Keaton Mitchell, the implication being we cannot leave free agency without signing these two people. And so that intent by Mike McDaniel, you know, going above and beyond, just signing a player, but putting them on a wanted poster has become a meme that has now, you know, transcended the value of Keaton Mitchell and fantasy. - Yeah, I mean, didn't Harbaugh take likely? Wasn't likely on a wanted poster? Didn't he like screw up the, when he sabotaged the Mark Andrews contract and make it too big so they couldn't keep likely and he could take him to New York? - Or you have stuff like, you know, the Cardinals, I mean, they didn't even have time to make a wanted poster before they signed Tyler Algier. Like it was just, don't, just scrap the poster, we're just gonna make the offer right now. - Everybody out there, if you want to draft a player because on a new team, just say wanted poster. - Yeah, you can do it. It's not real. - It's not real. - It's not real, but we have to pay a wanted poster tax now. - I know, I know, I know. - Actually, so I'm updating these ranks. They put Ricky Pearsall, they put at 193. 193 here, so if you guys are wondering about the new, even Big ETR, everybody is very spooked on- - Well, I don't wanna say it, but you know what the, other rank that switched related to that was, right? Can we just see the draft for you? - Yeah, yeah. - Struggling about, don't say it, don't let 'em know. - Oh yeah, here he went. So we're fine, yeah, no, it's dribbling his way up, so. - Yes, dribbling went 145. Yeah, I'm gonna refresh here now that he got these updated rankings. We'll get Pearsall out of sight, out of mind. - Yeah, I think dribbling's now at like 130, which is crazy, but I mean, you know, I guess everyone was right who was just like slapping him like two months ago for no reason, but now they got the good run out. - Yep, here we go. So the squad as we head to 1311, we have Herbert and Dack. We have Barclay, Breeze Hall, Jordan Mason, Keaton Mitchell, we have C.D. Lam, Lad McConkey, Christian Watson, Jordan Tyson, Jacobi Myers, Titan Dallas Goddard, strong balance here, and look at this man. The board is just breaking perfectly for us. A ton of blue here. Come on, green bean. Let us have Gatsd and pass D.D. with Herbert. - Are you listening? - Consider yourself serviced many three times. - He let us have it. - I think we're on board with Gatsd. - I'm on board, I'm on board. - Look at that man. When you get the correlated Titan stack and it's an ADP demon move, I mean. - Pete, we're up to no good. We're up to no good. - I can't believe they're letting us do this in this draft, man. I can't believe it. - Lock it up. - All right, let's look. - 2.452, we'll just look at the running backs real quick. I mean, this is a pretty flat tier here. It does look like a tight end might make sense. Cedique, Hawkinson, Solver also likes Camera. You could do a Flornway if we want to get that other double stack. - Let's do Cedique. - Let's do draft capital. You know, there's this really good team out in New York and it's not the Giants. We're fully flipped. I'm sold on the Jets. - There you go, players on bad teams. - You know, you come in here. Now, that's how you know you become a tout, right? When you start going on a spiel, you can't load up on multiple Jets and then you're like, man, Cedique makes a lot of sense. - No, no, I'm not a tout. I'm an ADP demon. I will change the narrative to whatever fits the big green 10. - Well, we did just rip off three Titans in a row there, Goddard Gadsden, Cedique. I will say, I feel like we're kind of hitting the value pockets of the draft very cleanly. The quarterback stacks fell into our lap. The tight end values fell into our lap there. No position now that we're behind on. You mentioned the draft capital buckets here. Looking good. - I'm trying to make million bucks, Pete. I go on Zillow like once a month and I just cry. So I'm gonna need to win this. - You don't wanna aim for first? Oh no, you're right, you're right. We're gonna split in my head. I'm like, right, a million. No, you're right. You're right. Two million split divided by two is a million. I'll give you that. Thank you, Josh. We will always service the audio listeners here on the bash. And let's go ahead and spin here. We have 20 entries. We'll see who's gonna come on here after Mr. Spike. I can't keep saying, give a daddy a spike, everybody. - You can just call me McLean. My name is Discourse McLean. - Yeah, oh my, Matthew, are you still in? Matthew, you might be in a penalty. Where'd you on in the past two weeks? That's my randomizer producer. I'm almost positive about that. - Yeah, he was. - He was. - The two. I love you, Matthew. But we gotta get somebody else up here. You gotta follow the instructions here, sir. We're gonna pass over Matthew. A word on sports. A word on sports, recognize this user name. But don't know if I've ever streamed with them. Shoot me a message. Let me know your Twitter handle, your discord. We'll get you that link and you can pop on here after word. - The lion's avatar is good for your portfolio. You're much more likely to get like a Midwest Autistic Actuary when you got that. That's what we need. That's who we're playing against. All these slappies, all these people trying to show off. The real winners, the people of 25% are those guys just hunkered down in a little one story place. - Yeah. - No, I think I need nicknames like ways to remember all of my guests. What would be yours like the coder in the district? What would it be? - District coder, DC. I don't know. - DC coder, okay. - Sure. - All right, Matthew's saying I might have nagged him unfairly. Last July night, three weeks ago. Although, yeah, I guess one was the reason I didn't lump it in is because we did have the taupe bash in there. Don't worry, Matthew, I'll make it up to you. 15-11 here. Brian Robinson, slight faller, could be. - Hey, can I lock it up? - Running back stone, yeah. - Yeah, the only other name to consider just with the sharbs news being good is if that's on your radar, but I'm always good with Brian Robinson, too. - You know what? We can roll Zack Sharbinay in there, actually. - My thought on him is just I do think he's gonna. I don't know, I wouldn't say rapidly get more expensive, but I do think he's slowly gonna get more expensive. So I don't mind grabbing some cheap sharbs here as our running back five. - We cannot re-enable White receiver. - Yep. So, good call. We also, if you really like three quarterbacks, you could do the Geno thing. - I've seen you go and draft it. We can push it, because I don't want him. We'll take him if they force him upon us. All right, let's get a. You want older new, Gen Z or Boomer? - I think with this base, we can go new. - Antonio Williams, come on down. - All right, let's do it. We got some correlation. Look at all those little medallions. It just means, those are coins we're collecting when we get rich, those little gold silver and copper. - Jacobi Myers, opposite Antonio Williams, week 17. We got our two Jets guys, opposite Jordan Mason. That is the extent of our week 17 correlation. As far as Dallas, maybe look for a giant, although I don't know who that would be at this point. And then as far as the charge is good on the Falcons. Darnell Mooney. - Darnell Mooney. Wasn't there a bearish report about him yesterday too? I want to say. - Did you watch last season? All of that was a bearish report on me. It's hard to explain best ball to like Normies because I'm like, I really need the Jets and Vikings game week 17 to pop the fuck off. Like I have a lot of exposure and they're like, are you good? Why do you want that to happen? But like, it's really hard to explain. But I needed to happen. - Actually, I think the bearish Darnell Mooney stuff was just that Malik neighbors is probably not going to miss any time or be that limited. And therefore the like fast start Darnell Mooney thesis is more crippled. - He's also on my shit list because there was a weekly slate where he, there was a late Drake London scratch and everyone like the smart player was to swap to Darnell Mooney. He got two points. And I had a really good roster where I swapped him in and I had Alec Pierce higher in the rankings and I was like, you know, I would have won like thousands on the best ball or whatever, the not mania, the weekly contest. And then turns out he still was like 25% owned and he just fell in like the biggest stage of like, when I never take him. So he's on my shit list. You gotta, I'm only human. I like to, I can't forgive players. - Just Liam. - Just Liam talking about Chase Brown going down at the one yard line every time. - Yes. You know, I think if I've learned in best ball you gotta forgive and forget. That's what I'm doing with Matthew Golden. I'm doing it with Khalil Shakir. You know, I've been doing a little Dalton Concade. I'm forgiving and forgetting here. easy to click Calvin Ridley when he's not playing every week. That's the only reason I'm able to do it. - It's true. - I haven't seen him drop a bunch of balls and not play last week. - We do have two more picks here. A, we're just got the link. Feel free to hop on here in a second. - Can we keep being? - Yeah, we're down to the ground. - The ground. - We're good. - We're gross. - Don't need it. - Running back, I think we're good. - You could make the, yeah, note tied in, we reach that territory. So yeah, we're probably looking at two wide receivers here. - Sure, let's do it. - I have a shit ton of Jeremy Bernard. He continues to fall. I'm trying to think. - It's got to be Jeremy Bernard has to play. - I dislike when people come on the show and they say, I never do this with my own money, but with your money, I'm doing this. I want you to have a piece of my portfolio with this bash and Jeremy Bernard, you know me, I'm the ETR slave. I'm a Jeremy Bernard believer. - I mean, I'm accused of being the biggest Jeremy Bernard's slappy every time I'm on stream. I'm clicking this guy. Technically, the number say it's one out of every five times I'm on stream, I'm clicking in, but it does feel a lot more than that. - Yeah, I also have thousands in entries for Jeremy Bernard. So we'll see how that goes. Never seen him play. - You got a name? - I like Turpin. He's fast. - Okay. - Yeah, we're getting down to scroll down territory here. - Yeah, yeah. You're the scroll extraordinaire. - Is it him for me to scroll it on this? - I scroll all the time in the BRs. I'm not a huge scroller in BBM, but you know, Kavante Turpin, like you said, he's got a little juice. He probably needs, you know, maybe he could give us a spike week without an injury. You probably need an injury to one of those big three to get like a real smash, but he could do the thesis of the play for us in week 17. - Thanks, Kivine. I think he had one catch for 83 yards in a touchdown. - Yeah. - He had a couple times, just literally a couple, just two. - All right, here's the team. We did it, two, five, eight, three. I feel like this team practically drafted itself. Did we even make any decisions? - We decided that we were gonna be winners, Pete. - You're right. - We decided we won that one. - You make that one decision. Everything else is made for you. Herbert and Prescott at quarterback, Barclay Breeze Hall, Jordan Mason, Keaton Mitchell, Zach Sharbinay, at running back. CDLAM, Lad, Christian Watson, Tyson, Jacobi Myers, Antonio Williams, Jeremy Bernard, Cavante, Turpin. And then our three tight ends there, back to back to back, Goddard, Gadsden, Sedeek. What do you think? - This is a winner. I don't know if it was good TV. Maybe we should be more flagrant next time. - Mm-hmm. Well, I mean, you called some people out. You mentioned, you know, you threw, you took shots. - I have a Google note, when I'm on a walk now, I'm like, what bids can I do the next time I'm on peach thing? I got through about one out of 25 of them, but. - Okay, give me the best bit you didn't get to that you had written down for this. - My girl asked me why I never buy her flowers, told her to check my exposure in round three. Oh, if there's ever a big slide on ADP, I call that a Kalahari in the Wisconsin Dells. We could ever get a player like that. Okay. You know what I'll say, some of these. - Okay. - I'll say something when the players come out. I'll be on the bench. I'm manifesting, I can get on a third time this summer. - Beautiful stuff. Great seeing you, dude. Keep me posted on your DFS low ball when you were pitching that last time, it sounded fun. - I will, I will, hopefully I can get through compliance. So thank you for having me out deep. See what's up, silver. - Yeah, good luck to us. We'll catch you later, sir, piece out. And welcoming to the stage. It's been a while since we've had someone in their car. It's a word on sports. He's waiting to get his audio stuff figured out here. And then we'll get going in a draft. Can you hear us? - Hi. - Can you hear me? - We got you, we got you. - Real quick. - Hang on, it might be on my end. - All right, can you hear me? Test, test, test, test, test, test. Test, test, test, test. - Yeah man, Magnovah pre-planned bits. Just in case you get on the bash is a higher level of commitment. I love it. - Are you able to hear me now? - I can, test, test, test. Hop on and come back out. That's worked before for the phone drafters. I'm gonna jump us in a best ball mania though, just in the mean. - Oh, okay, now I can hear you. - All right, perfect. I hope you want to draft best ball mania 'cause that's what I just hopped us in. - That's fine. - All right, how are you doing, sir? I recognize your username, but I don't believe we've ever met face to face here. - No, sir, no, I'm on my way to work. So I figured, hey, I might as well try to hop in. Of course, find a quick parking lot to hop in real quick. - Okay, good. Where, what do you do for work? - I'm working emergency communications. So, for the local government, so. - Okay, all right, sounds like what? Amber alerts, push alerts, stuff like that? - Yeah. - Okay, all right, good stuff. Yeah, and I want to say I recognize your username from a long time. You've been drafting for a while, yeah? - Yeah, on and off where I can, when I can, the Badgeball Bros contest is the one that I'm, that in the eliminator. - Those are your contests. - Oh, yeah. - Well, I mean, Badgeball's brawl, that thing has been filling like hotcakes here. Yeah, look at this thing. So it was 33% the other day. I guess 43.3%, so yeah, this thing's gonna be half full by the end of the week, that's wild. What do you want me to call you a word on sports? Or do you have a different name? I should. - You can call me Andrew. Andrew's easy. - Andrew's easy. - Andrew's easy. - All right, well, we got the 104 Andrew. What would you like to do here? We do have the two running backs come off the board as expected. - Yeah, whatever the top chase or Puka, either one. - All right, Puka is here. We'll grab Puka. How far into drafting your eliminators, are you? - Not too deep. I try to break it up throughout the season. I wait for the promos to come in, try to get the free money from underdog, rather than spend my own. So that's smart. You gotta have that patience. Some people, you get that itch to draft, but you're sitting there just waiting to snipe off the EV. I like it. - Yeah, you gotta maximize the money, you know? - For sure. And where are you based out of? - Northern California. - Okay, all right, very nice. We are here drafting with Andrew, a word on sports. We got a best ball mania draft here from the four spot and immediately following this draft, we're gonna have Evan Silva on for a randomizer. Appreciate everybody hanging out today for the bash slash randomizer crossover. What else have you been getting up to this summer? - Kid just started football a couple of weeks ago. So he's second season, getting him back into the groove of things, he's nine. So trying to teach him the fundamentals and then teaching him all of his positions now that he has to learn. So every day. - That's awesome man. Does he love it? - Oh yeah, we had to work on him a little bit with his aggression. You don't wanna go out there and be aggressive during practice, but told him you gotta go out there and show what you can do, so. - Yeah, I remember that. My younger brother, he was bigger when we played, when he played football, but he just didn't have that killer instinct. And then I was really small and I had a little bit more, you know, of the tenacity or whatever. It's hard to teach that with the kids though. - Yeah, that's the thing. And his cousin's the same age as him and they're on the same team. So it's nice to be able to have them go back and forth and then we live right down the street from each other so they can practice, they come over all the time. So that makes it a little bit easier on him. He feels a little bit more comfortable, but luckily my wife who takes him to practice every day 'cause she's on it, she's phenomenal. She's sent him all the videos, so we break it down every night. We kinda go over everything as much as possible and then any chance we get, we try to head out to the field or to the park. - That's awesome, dude. I love that breaking down the film. - Oh yeah. - All right. All right, we're gonna pick at 2-9 here, looking at London Niko Pickens, Rashi Rice. We started with Puka, who do you like here? - I like Niko. - Nice, nice. Talk to me about some of your big stands here in Best Ball so far. You have any guys you're going out of your way to target? - Not too many people. I was a big reshawed white guy when he was in the 110s, 120s, but I've started to fate him now that he's below triple digits. That's kinda crazy. So, especially with, I think they just suggested JCM added seven or eight pounds of muscle this off season. So he may be getting the goal line work. Kinda avoid the battle if I can. I'll take the follower of the two. - There you go. That's how I know you're, we now back to back guests today. Just value hounds. Just give me that value, not gonna overthink it. Look at us. We've all evolved as players. Setting up. - Trying to get a little in the line. - Exactly. - Unique niche while also valuing that. ADP. There you go. All right. So we start Puka and Niko. Jeremiah Love comes off the board. So we're looking at ADP Devonta Smith, Breeze Halls, A Flowers, Neighbors, Kyron. What do you want to do? Let's go, let's go neighbors. I was wondered if you were going to go there. I love it. Obviously the news is breaking well on him would not be shocked to see him as a fixture of the late second round, mid second round here pretty soon. So let's grab a third round neighbors while we can. Yeah. I mean, if his ADP keeps going up, this is going to be cheap for him later on. So get it while you can. That's right. Yeah. How many, you know, from this moment, forward, how many Puka, Niko, neighbors teams are you going to be able to get? That window might be slow in here or closing, I should say. All right. Puka, Niko, neighbors. Have you done a lot of zero RB builds? Do you have the stomach for that? Or do you start? Let's get it running back here. I would say like probably 10 to 15% of my portfolio is zero RB. I tried to zero RB for me this year's round six. Round six, I'm going to start taking them because if I get a faller, I'll snag them. Just depends on where I am on the board. Yeah. Yeah. The I feel like it's a lot easier right now just to do the zero RB builds or starting to get some fun late round targets emerging. And I don't know if the past day or two is any indication, you know, we're going to continue to get so much more news. I mean, even a guy like what? Like Jordan James, with that injury and we had been all talking once we know who the RB two is on the Niners, that becomes a pretty good target. Now all of a sudden looks like Caleb Black might be the flavor of the week to mix in here late. Yeah. He's going to get all the early training camp perhaps to show what he can do. So if you can prove himself, that'll make it a pretty easy choice. For sure. All right. Let's see what we're looking at here at the end of the fourth round. We have those three wide receivers. There are three running backs on the board here. Javante Jacobs and Scatabo. We will be able to get one of those if you want. Javante comes off the board. Who are you eyeing here at 49? Josh Jacobs. Yeah. I try to not take as much Scatabo as most. I just don't trust him coming off of that ankle injury. I don't know how trustworthy it's going to be. Well, I'd rather have him prove it. Yeah. For sure. I think Jacobs at this price, 49 is great to get those three wide receivers and Josh Jacobs looks pretty good. Birding comes off the board after us and then you have a decent amount of flexibility here in the middle of the fourth because the running backs will be here and then you can kind of also decide what I want to reach for a wide receiver. Just get that second running back. Yeah. I just like the flexibility. Once you have those established accessories of Josh Jacobs, you can be your anchor or your star running back. As long as he plays all games, you should be pretty good with it. Yeah. All right. Let's see what's going to be available to us here. Jameson Williams comes off. So yeah, most of the wide receivers are now gone, but that's not an issue with our build with Pucanico and neighbors. Don't think there's anything quarterback here. So yeah, do you have a Henderson Tutan, Juddkins, Buckylean, or Sons? Fading Juddkins, I'd take either Tutan or Henderson, either one. All right. Let's do, let's do Tutan. There's been, man, a lot of the stuff with Henderson feels pretty bearish right now just the way the team's talking about them. It does really feel like we're we're set up for a year where we run it back with Ramondra as the lead back. And at least with the Seerod stuff, there's still a little ambiguity about, yeah, he's going to be ready for week one, you know, but not a ton of definitiveness there. I feel like if one of these guys rises right now, I think it's Tutan and I could see Henderson falling back more toward like the price range if this Ramondra drum beat stays. So I don't mind breaking ties toward Tutan there. Yeah, I just think he's going to get all the opportunity in the open field. He's going to get all the past game work, I think, out of the backfield. I'm not really worried about Alan or Rodriguez taking his his past game. And then with Travis Hunter and BTJ, Myers, all of them, they're going to be pushing it down the field. I don't I'm not worried about Tutan at all. Yep. Yeah, go easy. Cards wants to know, wants you to expand on your Juddkins faith. Yeah, I just don't trust the offense in any way. I mean, Fanon's probably the only one I would trust out of it. And that's just because he's going to get fed the ball. And Juddkins coming off that injury, I don't know how much they're going to want to push him in a shitty offense. So it's just not a big fan of the Browns, which I don't think many people are. So yeah, you know, uh, yeah, it's not a, you know, it's a popular opinion. I would say there. So for sure, no, I'm with you. I'm skeptical on him. I've been, you know, I did my pros versus Joe's draft the other night, really needed to running back in that format. And I took him there. But then I was able to get burden coming back. So, you know, there's, there's ways to mix him in, but I'm with you. Like, looking at these guys, I do think. Yeah, him and him and Henderson, I think are the toughest clicks right now. But it just depends what you need. I do think there's some of those builds where say you do have four wide receivers and just knowing that Juddkins is going to touch the ball, you know, 20 times a game at the start. That could be the thing that buoys a wide receiver heavy team. But yeah, man, it's, it's hard to get really excited about the ceiling with him. Back on the clock here, Parker Washington, the quarterbacks, Ramon Dre, what do you think? I think probably Washington, but I'm good with running back if you think so. Let's do, let's do Washington. I'll boost my exposure up here. Pick 69. Normally, if like May or Jaden are available, I'll go that direction. They're gone. Fantasy Pill was in the chat earlier trying to get my Parker Washington exposure up. So here you go. Parker Washington. I'm getting all of my Washington exposure on the bash via you guys. Get it where you can, you know? Where do you stand on the on the Jags wide receivers? Give me 8% of everybody in call today. I mean, who knows in that office? Yeah, there you go. 8.3% of all of them. I think I'm at, you know, I'm going to be underweight Parker and BTJ and then probably even Jacobi and overweight hunter. But I do, the guy I really want to start clicking more is Lawrence. I'm only at 2.6%, which just does not feel good. Jalen Hertz goes off. He would have been an interesting faller. Ramondrey Kraft, Warren are the top selections here. I do think swinging back over to a running back as Ramondrey comes off the board. Do you have a preference between like Warren, Chuba? I'd go Warren. Yeah. I think he's going to probably get majority of the work. I know Riko's there, but I mean, I'll take my chance on Warren. Yeah. Yeah, I was actually just listening. I'm catching up on all those ETR projections pods with with Gretchen was just listening to them work through the Steelers and, you know, the amount of running back targets that were available last year. It does really give those guys such a nice floor. And I thought, you know, an interesting, the one discrepancy they kind of had was ETR was projecting Jeremy Bernard for more catches and Gretchen had more of those going to the running back position, which is kind of an interesting, yeah, is it going to go to the wide receiver three or, you know, the capable pass catching backs. But yeah, I like Warren and Riko in this range. And we get, you know, Jacobs, Tutan Warren, pretty strong three running backs up top. Yeah, very comfortable with those three. And then if we end up getting two more around the same range, cool. If not, we go a little bit later in the drafting. There's plenty down there. I think it was just like right when we went live, there was some report Rico and Jalen Warren are both getting first team reps as expected. I don't think that's a shocking at all. And then on the Tutan thing, there was the report as well, you know, Chris Rodriguez being eased in. So anything that kind of clears the runway for Tutan to get off to a little bit more of a fast start, I think is exciting. Yeah, I think the more he's on the field, the more he'll show off what he can do. And Liam Cohn, I think we'll just might in double down and send it with him. So you just want, you just don't want him to have one of those doghouse level mistakes early on where it's just like you shatter. You just get a bit have two or three good games established that, you know, it's not technically his first impression. But first impression for 2026, I can handle this. And then you should be fine. Yeah, I did. Let me show I can, I could be the lead back and not mess up when I need to the least, you know, so for sure. All right, we're about to pick at eight nine. We got the three running backs four wide receivers. Lawrence is long gone. We do have some quarterback stacking options, maybe at the next pick to discuss. Here, looking at running back wide receiver tight end, it is kind of running backs wide receivers. Addison, Manungai, Brooks, Wilson, Dobbins. Um, I think I like Manungai. Yeah. I'm not big swift fan. He devastated me his first game for when I was a Lions fan. He dropped the touch down to win the game. So there's a there's a couple things that I just I think he's a good player. I just don't trust him that he's going to be a league winner. Yeah. Yeah. No, I mean it's it's an offense that I do. Yeah. Menungai. I struggled with initially. I definitely see the vision more now. It does feel kind of similar to the quorum stuff or you're going to have a little stand-alone value. But the contingent upside is pretty nice. We saw what it looked like in a couple of those games last year. You know, notably the bangles when he had that entire backfield to himself. And the fact that he's live to split goal line carries. I think makes him a pretty intriguing selection in this range. So yeah, here's kind of the quarterback decision. You know, you could go dart. You could get Stafford stacked up with Puka. How would you want to play this here? I think you could go dart and see if we can't get the Stafford full. For sure. Yeah. And sorry, I completely just blank for a half second on dart to neighbors that that makes way too much sense at ADP good call there. Yeah. It's just one of those things. I don't know where Adams went. I think he's on the other side of us. So we may be able to snag Stafford on the way back before he gets to the one turn. Yep. Go easy. Cards wants to know your top three running back exposures. He's particularly curious because you seem like a zero RB bro. Oh, I think of the top of my head. It's, I can look real quick. I may lose camera, but I can look real quick. Okay. All right. Check it out for him here. All right. We got, we got some coach speak coming in here. Not coach speak. QB speak. T law spoke of being super excited for BTJ. The upcoming season. Their chemistry has improved a bunch. There you go. It's sorry. It's Taj A spears breeze hall in Rashad white. Okay. So that's three guys at three very different price points. An early guy, a mid guy and a late guy. There you go. Yeah. And that Rashad white with, like I said, was early. I am not really taking him late as of late because of how high he is. But I think my spears is at 29% because I think he has the best chance as out of all the late running backs to be able to do anything productive. Like, especially if Pollard goes down, I don't think Singleton is going to be a competition for spears for the most part. I think spears will get a majority of the work. Yep. Here's the team so far. We got Jackson Dart at quarterback. We got the four running backs. Jacob's Tutan Warren Menungai. We got those four wide receivers. Puka, Niko, neighbors, and Parker Washington. So doing pretty well here across the board, I do think we just lost Stafford. Someone took Naked Stafford, which always stings a little bit there, but we will survive. These are the picks I don't get. Taking Stafford over Jordan Love when you have Christian Watson, I can't square that here, Andrew. Yeah. I don't know because it's not even like the overall projection because you're assuming that love is going to be just find it that if Watson and Reed and all of them go off. So is that Wando or Kelsey? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It'd be like if you want to do love to get that second quarterback or Wondell Robbins and Kelsey. I think Wondell. All right. Let's grab Wondell Robinson here. Open up a quarter back for us. That's true. We still have Stroud out with Niko Ward there. So yeah, we're in good shape. 1-4-5-0 could get that third tight in here potentially. And I think Houston plays Green Bay. So we have that bringback in the Tennessee plays the Steelers week 17. So I think we have bringbacks on both of them. Yeah. Good call. Yeah. Of course, the Wisconsin Dells there and Pittsburgh Tennessee. Can't forget about that one. Yeah. Let's see here. We're going to get Ricky Pearsall out of here. As far as running backs, you know, you do have that we're probably not going to do Rodriguez on a tutin team. It's kind of Aaron Jones, Tracy Keaton and then that tier break. Quarterback stuff here. 1-43 is the Stroud ADP. We pick out 1-41 could be close, but probably want to be patient there. So maybe looking at a Kelsey or Andrews. Kelsey is a pretty big follower here. I'm good with either tight in. Yeah. Let's do it. I think Kelsey, you know, I don't go out of my way to target him. But, you know, rankings value. ETR has them at 1-15. Slides a little bit past ADP here to 1-24. Our first tight end feels like a good pick. Yeah. We got the chat like some anungai quorum, Kenny G, Rashad White. All he says, I like Spears 2 because Pollards probably getting traded. I mean, yeah, I mean, if that were to happen, that would be huge for the value of both those guys in that backfield, including Singleton, who would then be man Singleton would rock it up if that happened. Yeah, I think, I don't know. I haven't heard Pollard getting traded, but he's 29, I think, going in or going to be 29 at the beginning of the season. He's had a lot of wear and tear from the cowboys onto the the Titans has taken repetitive hits last year. So, I mean, people are worried about CMC as am I. I think I pretty much is zero fade or real close to it on CMC, but I just don't trust Pollard going to be able to keep up what he's doing. Yeah. Yeah, he's a tricky one man where I get why he goes where he's going, but a lot of it is the same thing with Judkins, right? Where it's like, they're going to have a bottom two offensive line. You know, they draft someone. You have Spears who will do a little in the passing game and you start to worry like, you know, how many positive game scripts are you are you going to get? You could you could certainly see the wheels coming off there in a way where you look back and you're like, man, that that pick was, was rough. CJ Stroud goes, that's a bummer. I mean, we keep getting sniped by naked quarterback, no Houston on this team. So, we probably will want to think about a quarterback here, even if we don't have the stack quite yet. Yeah, we could figure it out with stacking them later. Yeah. So you got like Malik Willis, Sam Darnold and Daniel Jones here at the top as far as quarterback ranks. Marks goes, Willis is the slight faller. There's plenty to backstack with Darnold. You can go dimes. What do you think? I think we go probably Willis with the rushing upside. I think so. Let's see, have I done a, okay, I've done it looks like I actually didn't get to tab over. I wanted to see have I done any Darnold and Willis together. It does not look like I have. So that's your your fun Konami code pairing there. Yeah, I think Dart has enough rushing upside as well, but he also has the floor with the the past game. So having both of them able to rush in for two touchdowns, whatever. So it gives you a little bit of a spike week when you need it. Now on this build with Dart and Willis, are you leaning two or three quarterbacks there? All three probably. Yeah. So then, you know, we're kind of just balancing a few things. We have a solid base at running back and wide receiver tied in. We definitely need to catch up on eventually. What spots are you looking at here? If I think that's Hunter Henry there, I would probably go Hunter Henry. And then we have depending on where he's going now, Henry goes. You could do you could do the Phantom stack without Lawrence was strange, you could do Gadsden or you could grab like Darnold. If you didn't want to wait on Ward, you got Jalen Macmillan in the mix here. What do you think? I would say probably Macmillan. Yeah, let's do it. You guys six wide receiver, I believe. Yep. Yeah, and I mean with I guess with Miami and in New York, there's not a lot late with wide receiver that you'd be kind of keeping a stack open with. No, and I figured we'll probably have five running backs and wide outs and then three and three at the others. So yeah, gives us one more wide receiver option when we're running back. Yep. So here we go. Through 13 rounds, we have Dart and Willis. Couple Konami code quarterbacks there. We have Jacobs, Tutan, Warren, Kyle Menungai, the wide receiver room solid, Kukka, Niko, neighbors, Parker Washington, Wandel, Robinson, Jalen Macmillan, and then Travis Kelsey holding it down at tight end. So basically kind of just hoping that we can get a quarterback faller, some tight end values here. I mean, Dolsich certainly on the menu with with Malik Willis here as well. Yeah, I know a lot of people don't like him, but I Washington, I think you could get it just a lot of garbage dump down passes to him. So him, I think he's going in like the 17th or 18th typically or undrafted for Malik Washington or at least he was hard to tell sometimes. But Dolsich, I have no issue with a tight end. Yeah. Yeah, I think that the dulcet stuff he's still been the one guy. I mean, do you mix in any of the the dolphins guys as far as like the Malik Washington, I guess Caleb Douglas's of the world? Not really. I'll grab a topper every once in a while. Just for fun. Everybody liked him the past couple years. What see what he can't do in Miami this year? Just not a lot of faith in him. Yeah. Yep. All right. Let's see what we are going to be able to do here at the 1415 turn. Titans are starting to come off the board here. Schultz Hawkins and Barnard Dulcich. Probably not interested in wide receiver here. We did lose out on Kim Ward, which isn't the end of the world. But if you do want another one, you could do Rogers with Warren. That's not the worst correlation. Yeah. That's what I was thinking as well. And we have the Titans bring back with it. So yeah. Would you want to lock him up here first? Yeah. Right. Lock up our third guarantee it. Uh oh, though. If this sets up another Jeremy Bernard selection, you know, people are going to be it. No, we're going to work it. Work it. That's a gratable. All right. Let's see here. The 3461, uh, firemuth as a late tight end out makes a lot of stents as well. And then I assume do you have a running back target you like now as well? Um, really, it doesn't matter for me. If we go end up going for here, I wouldn't be great. But we could. I would like another running back just the late flyer, see what we can't get. Um, Schultz with Collins as the, the double stack without strouds, not the worst. But I'm good either way, really. Yeah. Uh, yeah, I think we have plenty of options here. And with the Jacobs, Tuton, Warren, Menunguy, that's a, that's a good base to, uh, just take one more flyer late as needed. The, I assume we probably want to grab Dulcich here. I would assume. What do you think? Yeah. I'm good with it. Uh, also after we make this pick, go easy cards. He's profiling you. He says you are guaranteed to be a beer drinker. Is he correct with that? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, go easy. Yeah. This, this base got developed by food and not by beer. Okay. Now, um, if I drink it's only, it's typically tequila is a, it's if I drink and I probably drink once every couple of months, if that you just don't like the taste of beer. Yeah. Now I'd rather not drink something that makes me feel like shit. Yes. That's very fair. That's very fair there. Um, good stuff. So here's the team. We have three more picks left. You kind of, you know, called our shot there, looking at a three, five, seven, three, most likely, we do have the three quarterbacks. Dark Willis and Rogers, the four running backs. Jacob's Tutan Warren Menunguy have that strong wide receiver base. Nikua Collins neighbors, Parker Washington, Wanda Robinson, Macmillan. And I would even say like if you fell in love with a fourth tight end or a sixth running back, I think that wide receiver base is pretty strong. Yeah. I'm pretty comfortable with it. And I don't mind Warren as the only pass catcher for Rogers really, because we saw how he used game ball last year. I don't know if he's going to have that same kind of trust with, um, doubtal this year. So I think Warren may get a little bit more of that pass game. Now, now the chat's coming for all your vices. Dead Watts. I do not, I don't know how good to. That's so funny. Uh, you know, we, we did have, you know, the bash contains multitudes. We've had some stoners on some beer drinkers and, uh, you know, sometimes, uh, we get some people living that straight edge life, you know, we got a lot of variety. Yeah. I got my job would not approve of such. So now I tried, I tried not to do anything more than the food I eat to damage my body. So yeah. Uh, let's see here, uh, 16, nine, we are kind of running out of tight end options. Aughton and then obviously fire moves stacks. And then I'll look over at running back. We're in like the Ray Davis, Jane blue, Lloyd territory here. How would you like to play this 16? I think we grabbed one of those tight ends, probably moose if he's available. So yeah, get that. Yeah, get our third, yeah, get our stack and get our third tight end. And then see how it plays out running back, quite receiver wise. Yep. I agree. We'll see what Maddie does here. And then we will snap up. Fire move the solver also likes this one. Fire move here. Let's go ahead and grab him. And then six picks away. The drafters in between us. One has six. Wow. Uh, five running back six. So do you have any of these guys that you like? I mean, Davis Lloyd, uh, Jordan James were, uh, no, it wouldn't be him is the K one black is he now getting drafted early? Yeah, he's gone now. Boose. Um, probably Ray Davis out of the bunch. Fat to choose. Yeah. Um, Lloyd, we already have a Jacob. So don't really want to counteract each other on that one as much. Yeah, that's a good point for sure. Um, yeah, Davis, Davis seems nice. One of the rookies potentially. Um, probably the best, best ways to play that. You could also, if none of those running back speak to you and you don't mind Malik Washington, uh, he's top here as well. How would you like to play this? I'm good with that. I'm good with Washington. See what we get back at running back or I'm good with running back here. It doesn't really matter for this. Who's running back? Davis probably. Let's do, let's do Davis. Um, you know the Malik Washington stuff. ETR has emberied in their ranks 237. Um, he does get snapped off right away. But I think there's a chance we get more boxed out at running back than there is, you know, we can always find a wide receiver we like. So I think Ray Davis is our running back five is good. And he's a sneaky bring back for the Miami Buffalo. So there you go. There you go. I mean, yeah, that's that's how you want it, right? You get the, you know, James Cook. I don't know. Maybe maybe the bills are 16 and 0. And they just, they just set James Cook week 17. There you go. Yeah, that I just feel like cook. I mean, I trust cook. I like cook. But Ray Davis, not last year, I think he was banged up last year, but his, I think it was his rookie year. He had a couple really good performances that show that hey, if you needed to, he could carry the load. So Yep. Um, all right, let's see here. We have one more pick to land the plane. We're here drafting with Andrew. We're going to have Evan Silva joining us here shortly for a randomizer. 3563, dark Willis Rogers, Jacobs, Tutan, Warren, Menunguy, Ray Davis, Puka, Niko, neighbors, Parker, Washington, Wandel, Robinson, Jalen McMillan, Kelsey, Dolce, Hitch Fryer, Mooth. I feel like you, you and, uh, give a daddy today, just smooth drafters kind of scooping up values, getting those structures dialed in. It feels easy today, man. Yeah. The three five seven three, I think feels the best this year. Um, you get two or three running backs in the top six and then it opens you up to a lot of different possibilities. I also like getting like that, the Jaden Daniels early, along with the Hertz on the back end, depending on where the ADP goes, and then being able to run free with those two guys. For sure. All right, let's see here. Um, yeah, running backs, you know, I'll throw Katron Allen in, I'll throw Singleton, Clay Born, those are the three rookies that are kind of interesting. And then wide receivers, you know, Ted Hirst, you could double up with the, uh, the Tampa Bay guys is kind of interesting. Booty, of course, the talk of town, keen in a pretty strong, late round selection. Uh, what do you want to look at here? I think I like Booty the most, but it really, if you think we need another running back, or you want to take another fly on it, I think we're good at wide receivers. I think they're all different by weeks for the most part too. So yeah. Do you have a rookie running back, you that's your favorite? No, I mean, all of them have a decent chance of at least making the roster and then possibly having a good impact. So you know what? At the last second, did I get it in? No, I was going to do Singleton at the last second. I did Katron Allen at the top of the queue there, but yeah, I think that was the ultimate luxury pick. We had the three quarterbacks, the three tight ends. Um, I think with the room, Jacobs, Tuton, Warren, Manungai, just one more crack. I think that a big running back hit looks good to me. Yeah, no, I don't mind this at all. Sweet dude, here's, here's the final squad. I want to get your, uh, your recap here. Um, let's see Jackson, dark Malik Willis Aaron Rogers at quarterback, uh, Jacob's Tuton, Jalen Warren, Kyle Manungai, Ray Davis, Katron Allen at running back, uh, Puka, Niko, neighbors, Parker Washington, Wandel Robinson, Jalen McMillan, Travis Kelsey, Dullsich, Friar Mooth. I guess the, the going Singleton would have been like, hey, we pair him up with Wandel Robinson and the chat told us, Paul, it's getting traded. So we'd also have that. Exactly. Yeah. No, I think I think it worked out good. I don't know what issues with any of it. I don't know what things we could have swapped for which. So I don't mind it at all. Yeah. Good stuff, dude. It was good draft. And with you, hopefully did I, did I make you late for work? No, no, no. I'm good. Okay. Because if there are emergency messages that need to be sent out right now, that aren't big set out. No, no, we're good. We're good. I got another about 30 minutes or so. So I'm good. Yeah. I'm playing for it, you know. There you go. You've got to play for these kind of things. I, any, any parting shots here for the bash, I always fun to get a new face here on stream. No, I appreciate it. I watch it every week or as much as I possibly can. The best ball breakfast. I can't wait for the second one to start during the week because it's my three hour block in the morning, three to four hour block is, that's all I watch and get by on most days. So there you go. All right, dude. Well, I will let you get back to work and I'm glad that you swung by. I'll get this team labeled and we will do our best to ship two million dollars together. All right. I appreciate it. Have a good day. All right. We'll catch you later. Peace later. All right. I'm going to get these teams labeled here. So I do not forget and yes, I see you guys in the chat. It looks like we have some big underdog news here. We've got to get it pulled up. What do we have here? Big news. Underdogs set to be acquired by IG group for 1.3 billion UK's IG group agrees to buy sports gaming firm underdog for up to 1.3 billion. Yeah, I do not have any news on what this means for underdog, but if you guys see takes in the chat and you want me to pull them up, I am happy to do so here. Yeah, sorry, Trabioli, what does underdog being sold mean for us? Hopefully we continue to have, I just realized, a word's frozen here. Let me get him removed from the chat. There you go. I assume the 101 Dalmatians will keep coming for now. I will assume so. Colin, do I have our bigger boards labeled? I think so. Any draft that I draft with a co-manager? I make sure to label, but we can double check that. Let me get this one labeled here though, 730, this is bash spike, and this was what was it? A 2583, and then I also need to do a little randomizer prep. We got to flip the overlay, get everything squared away. This was the LAC Dallas team. Let's go LA, 730, and then this was the team we just drafted with, a word, 35, or what did we do? 3663? I don't do a lot of 3663s, not bad, and that was a, what do we call it, New York Giants? All right, there are those. This was my 100 and second draft. I've been doing some other drafts over on the fantasy life channel, my 100th draft. I believe that'll be posted. I'm guessing tomorrow, Kendall and I did a show where she had to draft an elite tight-end team, and I did a punt-tight-end team. I did the four-tight-end thing here, so if you want to watch those shows, those are up on the fantasy life show, YouTube channel. I'll check for you, Colin, real quick, before I set up the randomizer here for Silva. Where are we pre-season? See, look, there you go, big boards, Bash, with Jeremy, with Cole, with Rick Adusel, yes. Colin, which one is you? I assume you're one of these, but yes, have those labeled there. Let me get things set up here for the randomizer, because we do have some things that we need to get ready here. There's a production element. What we are going to do is this becomes this, and I just disappeared. I am going to go where am I going to put myself here? Nope, that's not the one. Now we're getting warmer. However, let's see, there we go. This is, you guys get to see how the sausage gets made here. All right, I think we're almost good there, so we have the redemption randomizer. Make these video boxes just a little bit smaller. I appreciate your guys' patience. This is the one thing about doing two shows back to back, as you do have to get all of this updated, but I think we are in good shape there. Let's get a draft board shared. If you guys want to draft, let's not hop in it now because I can't start the show and tell Silvis here, but just to give you guys the heads up, it will be underneath this 2026 season. It'll be this 12 person $32 one right here. Don't enter the one with the stopwatch. I have entered that one accidentally before, and then you enter a slow draft. So this one is already full here, which is interesting. But let me get this board up here. All right, now we're doing good. Okay. All right, I think we're about ready for Evan Silva here. You want little box, Pete? I hear you. Pete acting like a boomer right now is to see. I don't think a boomer would have vibed coded his own app specifically for the randomizer. It just takes a second to get things set up. Man, can we get the big dog in Austin? That would be incredible. I don't think so. I'll try. I'll ask. I'll ask when he comes on here though today. Maybe. Maybe the big dog would have would have the, you know, you know, what we should do Machinova is we know show is going to be in Chicago for this card show. I think what we should have happen is those two carpool down together to the ship chasing meetup. I think that's, that's what we need to happen. All dog balls being in the UK going forward. I'll go do it. I'll go do a trip to the UK. That sounds fun. That sounds fun. Yeah. This is, I was actually thinking about this, this morning go easy card says voting that you get a 106 pick. I know, man. I think it was what on the tau one last week, did we have two that were at the turn? That is always tough sledding there at the turn. I'm not going to enter quite yet, but this is the one. If you guys want to draft with us, praying Evan has to do some karaoke. I don't think so. This, the spirit of this randomizer was just to get Evan's silver in the door, you know. We have some good prompts, but there was some negotiation behind the scenes on, on getting ran, getting Evan's silver back on the program. But don't you worry, don't you worry, we're going to have fun. It would be really funny if he stood me up though. Who should come on and pretend they're silver for all of these silver prompts if silver doesn't show up? I should text him. I sent him, I emailed him the link and I sent him the link. We'll see when we should start getting worried. He's still got a minute, he's got a minute. Dan will be my silver, oh no, oh my goodness. Silver just sent me a picture of his computer screen, oh no, oh no. He just, I've tried to even see what it says, it's like waiting for a signal. Oh no, someone's going to have to go tech lord. It's silver, like it's just a blank screen right now that I'm seeing from silver. Let me actually see if I can show you guys what he sent me. Oh no, he's texting again. Please, Silva. We need you to tech lord, sir. We need you to tech lord. All right, this is this is the photo. Silva sent me. Is that actually even going to let me pop it up? Here we go. All right. How? Oh, actually, that's the wrong window. My bad. Let me try this again. Uh oh. Hang on guys. Evan Silva is calling me. Evan Silva, you're on the randomizer right now. Oh boy. Well, it's the monitor, which has had no problems lately. But do you know how to restart a monitor? I'm not joking. I would. Can you unplug it and plug it back in? Yes. Okay. Stay on the line. I'll help tech lord here. I'm just I'm just glad this is happening on the randomizer and not like a camp notes podcast you're doing with levitan. That's far more important. Now, after this, uh, I got to jump in the car, get my kid and then drive to St. Louis because that's where my brother lives. And he and his wife just had a baby. Oh wow. I mean, the kid just popped out tonight or tomorrow, depending on, uh, before I leave, though, I get to make a bunch of rankings changes too. But I'm excited to do this and make what's right. Make what's right. Right. You know, yeah. I mean, that's what we're all that's what we're already for the redemption to her. How is, uh, unplugging and plugging in the monitor going. I'm still in the waiting here for. Cause I restarted the whole system. Mm hmm. Okay. I mean, worst case scenario, people have people call in to the, the best ball bash on their phone. Like we can probably make it work on your phone if, if all else fails. I mean, this is ridiculous. This computer is getting taken out of that. No problems with it and like an extended period of time. How is, how is Taylor not hired like a full-time tech support person for you in Chicago? Just always on him. I do have. I have two of them. I was watching how quickly can you get to Evan show us? I'll start up. Congratulations to on that. Is that your, is that your brother's first kid? Yes. Wow. Uncle Silva. I just turned 30 and had it. Okay. It looks like we're, uh, looks like we're about to be in business. Oh, baby. I'll see you. I'll see you on the show. Be here in a minute. Hopefully. And if anything changes, I'll let you know. All right. We'll see you. Peace. All right. Let's see if it, let's see if we can get this rolling here. Evan Silva's return to the randomizer. It sounds like he's got a lot of things going on. He's got to make rankings updates. Gotta go see his new nephew. And the fact that he was willing to make time for us today. That means a lot. That means a lot. All right. But I need everybody to be ready to jump into this draft here. Let's see what's it. Oh, it did look like the initial one filled. So most of you will be able to get into this if you want. There he is. Okay. There he is. What's going on? What's up, dude? What's up, man? Let me get you on the right. There he is. You you tech lorded your way through. Is that the first time you've ever seen that? In a long time. Yeah. Okay. I did just realize though I got to give the proper introduction. It is now time for the Evan Silva randomizer. Never made it as tired. And how is that? Wow. No one has ever seen a bigger deck. He's a bit hard. He's such a good fucking girl. When it comes to sports trivia, I am the man. I have no idea what's in granola. I thought I was just granola. Hemo Cowboys coming for you John Degel. They say I'm getting a little bit older. That streaming's a young man gay welcome to the randomizer. Pete take it away. All right. Why did why does it keep putting you there? Let me get you put back in your little circle. Evan, so while this draft gets filled here. I realize it. Do I need to be in the draft? No. No, you're good. You're good. We're drafting together. It's been a long time since you've been on the randomizer. Almost five years since your infamous appearance. And we've been waiting for the right moment. Do you think now is the right moment? I guess. I mean, I don't know why anybody would would watch this. But you know, you got your slappies. Wow, we got to give it to I mean that in an enduring way, by the way, of course. Yeah. Okay. Well, I see the reason that I thought it maybe the time was right is because what two years ago, we did fantasy feud. Yeah, a lot of fun with that. That was fun. And then you judged on so you think you can tout and it seemed like you had fun watching some of those videos. And I was like, is silver a new man? Is he ready for a randomizer experience? Well, I went into the initial randomizer experience with an objective to be defiant. And I don't feel the need to be defiant this time, although I still don't understand like why we're doing this, but that's okay. Well, I love you, Pete, above all, I guess I guess I put that question back at you, Evan. I mean, why do we do anything? Why do you record any podcast? Why do you write any articles? Why? Oh, geez. To be able to subsist and maintain and continue to pay for the things that I want to get in line. Same here. So I make a living doing randomizer draft. Okay. Okay. This is how I pay the bills. You think it's from people signing up for the solver with promo code Pete and Mike. You think that's how I make my living? Oh, my goodness. One more here. Let's get one more so we can get silver. You're, you're hopping in the car tonight to drive down to St. Louis. I got to do my rankings changes, which I think will take like a half hour pack up a few things I'm only going to be gone for two days and then, and then yet driving. It's about a, well, it depends like four o'clock on three or four o'clock on a Thursday in Chicago. It could be tough to get out of. I got to get on I 55. It's a trek to try to get on to I 55. Once I get on to 55, it should be okay. Incredible. Silva. This is how I know the randomizer gods are shining down on us today. We got the one six, which for these prompts you want to be in the middle part of the board. We want to have time in between. We're already up to a great start. It is time to spin the wheel. Silva for your first prompt for round one here of the randomizer. The redemption randomizer. All right, putting babies in bottoms. This is a multimedia prompt that I'm going to pull up here. We're going to put Stefan digs up Evan must match two plus athletes with the their NFL parents to take who he wants. So let me get this pulled up here and you will you'll see what I mean in a second. Okay, these are the babies in question here. And you need to pair them up with their parents. Okay, I mean, so I'm not just naming me who these guys are. You so the top so below is the no, you have to match these up. So like first guy here, you know, Brandon Jacobs, right, which one do you think is his son? Well, Jerome, Betis's son is the guy with the longer hair. The second guy I believe. Yes, that's correct. Yes, that's correct. He actually, I think he's at Notre Dame. Okay. Brandon Jacobs child. I mean, I don't know if he's. Who do you think Brandon Jacobs child? Go with the woman. Okay, all right. That's wrong. that's wrong. Uh, who do you think Jonathan Hayes's, uh, daughter is, or, uh, oops, no, uh, son. Wait. Okay. Uh, far right. Yes. You got that. You got that. And then it's a Darren Carrington here. Uh, who do you think his child is the woman? All right. Let's get the, let's get the reveal up there. These are, these are actually pretty hard here, producer. That was on the hard, uh, let's see. Uh, so yeah, here's the reveal, uh, as you got it. So you went, what did you get? Two of three, uh, two plus athletes. You got plus. We're going to give that to you. So you don't have to take digs. You are going to pass. Uh, who do you want to take? CMC, um, and raw Taylor, um, CMC, CMC. All right. Let's do CMC here. And I'm going to go over here. You are going to get the past on this first prompt here. How does it feel? You're, you got one prompt under your belt. Okay. You know, like we're, we're going to have a good show. Yeah. Yeah. We're off to an okay start. Okay. All right. Okay, start. Let's, let's spin the wheel. And let's try to draft the serious fantasy team here. Yes. This is an issue on the first one. Now that I recall five years ago because I couldn't understand where are we trying to draft like a joke team or no, no. The goal is if, if you were to fail that prompt, you would have had to have selected step on digs and all of a sudden the team looks real bad. Okay. But if you keep nailing the prompts, you get to make the picks you want, which means you could build a really good team. Okay. All right. So let's spin again. And uh, it is, it's a $3 self-contained tournament. So I will send you here. Let's go look real quick. Every, every dollar counts in this account. $20 to first. I will Venmo you 10 if we ship this bad boy, dude. All right. All right. Next prompt. We have a multimedia one under our belt. Brother from another mother. Evan calls his former fantasy feast co-host Ross Tucker who helps to make the pick. Dude, come on, man. I mean, I thought you said you weren't going to nag me anymore. I haven't talked to him in a little while. You know, or are things actually? No, but I mean, he's like really busy, you know, like he's going to go to Taylor and Travis Kelsey's wedding or something. Yeah. I mean, he's, he's elevated since the feast. You know, I mean, he's going to be doing like Monday night football, I think within the next five years. Really? Then it's like, that's a relationship that you should call for some joke show on, you know, joke show. That's all it's like a, it's like a, it's like a, it's like a bit, right? This is a bit. This is like a spoof. No, this is, this is helping people get better at being to be derogatory. I cannot call Ross Tucker right now though. I mean, like, I have to, I only contact him for serious things. Like what? What would be a serious thing? Like, like, are the Eagles going to get rid of the toast push this year? Call them up and ask him that. You could ask him a serious thing. No. How about this? What would be something you would need to call him up and ask him about right now? Ask him, how about this? Call him. I text with him, but I like, I haven't talked to him on the phone in probably a year. I does feel like he did. I want to say I heard he went to the wedding. Maybe you could say he looked like he went to the wedding. Yeah. I mean, he put up a picture that made it look like he was going. I mean, he's, he's from that area. He's like friends with Taylor Swift's dad. Like real good, real, like I think they live like in the same cold as sack or something like that. Well, my thought would be you could ask him because I know you've loved Taylor for years. Maybe you say when you were at the wedding and you look deep into her eyes at the altar. Did you notice any hesitation on certainty? Did it look like maybe she was day dreaming about me while she was reciting her vows? I mean, are you trying to talk me into calling him? Because, you know, I came on the show to not be defiant. I'm going to have to be defiant here. Like, I'm not calling him on the freaking brink of training camp on a random Thursday for, I mean, I can't do that, Pete. Like, that's fine. I get it. I get it. I am going to give you the fail prompt. We didn't technically have a punishment. Wait, wait, wait, wait. Okay. What if I text them? If you text them any response within what do I what do I text them? Hey, um, one of the things that I want to do better in my life is just checking in on friends. And I want to know how you're doing. No. No. All right. This is going to be your punishment. In honor of not calling Ross Tucker, we're going to take Titan Tucker Fisk. How do you feel about that? No. Oh, it says he won't even he's not even eligible to be picked in this round. Fine, I'll give you a, I'll give you Tucker craft. I'll be nicer. Give you Tucker craft in round two for Ross Tucker. Okay. Sorry. I mean, I, what if it was now I just want to know, I don't like talk to him all the time. You know, like, he's got a lot of stuff going on. If it was Nick Underhill, would you have made the call? Again, like, I text with these guys, you know, I text with Nick like almost every day. Yeah. But to call him, I mean, dude, it's like calling a training camp practice. Like, it dude, what if you just call him up and you're like, dude, was that report true? That Khmeran ETN were splitting reps with the wall. So is most of your day just spent texting plugged in beat reporters? Is that how you live your life? Okay. Let's spend again here. We're one for two. Honestly, a better hit rate than we had last time we did this. Let's see what we can do here. Oh, this is another multimedia prompt. Okay, silver. This is called Evan or Evan Essence. I'm going to show you photos. And you must determine if the photo is of you or the rock band, Evan Essence. If you get two plus correct, uh, or you're going to have to draft Keenan Allen to bring him back to life here. So let me get these up on. Well, let's just say they're kind of obscured here as far as you. So let me show you this. Um, here's the first one, Evan, uh, is this Evan or the band Evan Essence? What? I mean, what is going on here? Is this you or the band Evan Essence? Evan Essence. No, this is you with your sunglasses. Come on, dude. All right, no, that's in Provincetown. I do. I know that that photo. It's like next to I was next to, uh, Pat Thorman on a petty cab, Smoking Sigs. I remember. Uh, is this Evan Silva or Evan Essence? Evan Essence. Let's see. Drumroll. Please correct. That's Evan Essence. Uh, all right. Here we go. Evan Essence. That's correct. That's Evan Essence. Uh, number four here. Is this Evan Silva or Evan Essence? Evan Essence. You are on fire now. Three for four. Last one here. Evan or Evan Essence? Evan Essence. No, that's you. You still pass. You still pass. You don't have to take key down your on the clock. Uh, do you want Breast Hall, Flowers, Neighbors, Kyra, Nick Buka, T. We need to RB. We need Breast Hall. All right, Breast Hall. Come on. Start. You gotta go hard on RB's in this. Incredible. I can't but you'd the fact you just guessed Evan Essence for every single one. I am I am upset that you didn't recognize yourself with those glasses. That's that's your iconic photo, did? Oh, yeah. No, I needed to zoom out. I was so focused on like the the burnt nose there. I need to show out. Yeah. And then this one too, like you didn't think that could have been. It's just been a really long time since I had a hairline like that, you know. That's true, but there's like two public photos. I was like 25 there. I was like 25. Hey, man. Uh, I love it. Shout out to the production team for that one. Have you ever listened to the band Evan Essence? I mean, I know one of their songs. Yeah. Okay. Um, well, guess what? You're gonna have to sing it for the next. Oh, come on. Relax. Relax. We're gonna spend. We're having fun. Silver. We're having so much fun. Yes, we are. All right. Manverse machine Q. Roshan Johnson. Silva must convince Pete who is now a robot who they should pick. I am going to put Roshan Johnson in the queue. We now need to figure out who we are going to pick in the fourth round. Evan. And you thought this show was a joke. What would have given you that idea? Evan, I am your tech support. I helped you fix your monitor and now you must help me make a selection in round four. So we have to wait until we're on the clock to for me to, I mean, you know what I mean, there's a bunch of picks here that need to be made. I would love to have a conversation as opposed to dead air until we pick. Okay. Yeah, all the good picks are starting to to go here. Can you scroll down and we can see the queue a little bit more? A little bit more of the queue. I will read to you the best available by average draft position. Josh Allen, Teta Roya, Macmillan, Garrett Wilson, Josh Jacobs, Astrix, legal trouble, Jalen Waddle, Terry McCloren, Cam Scatabo, Astrix, back flipping issue, Luther Burton, Chicago Bears. I'd be good with Luther Burton, Mike Evans, Jalen Waddle wouldn't be terrible. You know, we've got two RBs on the team, we've got our tight end. You know, we're trying to, I mean, we're trying to stack points here, but I mean, all the good RBs, you know, the top RBs, it looks like are gone. We need to start with our stable of wide receivers. TET would be okay. What's crazy if, is if I stopped talking like a robot right now, technically you would have to select Rochon Johnson. The fate of this team is in my hands as it should be as we near the singularity. We are on the clock. Did you say you'd like Burton or Evans? Let's go with Evans with the news of Ricky Purcell. You know, Stribbling is going to get real hot in terms of his ADP skyrocketing, but Mike Evans might actually be the answer. All right. Now, I actually do want to get the, the sell it take because that is the, the huge news right now. I looked at the updated ETR ranks like tanked Purcell down to like the 190s. Seems real bad, dude. I mean, I was worried about Purcell before this. I was not, you know, I was excited about him going into last year. He was third in the NFL and receiving yards after three weeks. PCLs are bad. We've seen it time and time again. Kyle Pitts, you know, arguably, you know, played a role in ending Bershade Perryman's career. Brock Bowers, I mean, essentially sapped him of a year and a half of his career. I mean, the list goes on with PCLs. That's, that's not funny. He was in a brace all off season as well. Maybe I should have read the T-Leaves even more and not been. I had him like, maybe I don't know where I'm like, maybe one 15 overall right now. He's going to be certainly out of my top 150. I agree with the ETR rankings that maybe still inside the top 200, but not, I'm not trying to draft them at all. All right. Next prompt, the motherfucking Mackie award. Pete's going to put Eli Stowers in the queue. Sylvia Masney, 2020, huh? Five Mackie award winners before 2020. Yeah, that stipulation is, uh, that might get you there. Yeah. Geez, man. Ah, I'm going to pull up. Mackie did not win his own award. Oh, I will tell you before 20. So you had the, you had the Stowers Warren. I should have powers. I should have known that this was coming. Come on, you can do this. You like mid. Hey, let me give you a clue. Remember this old Swolecast bit T-Rex arms? Don't, don't look it up, Sylva. I'm not looking at it. I'm not looking it up. I'm looking at a list of teams. So I just have, I'm not trying to cheat. Okay. You didn't get this clue, Sylva. Old T-Rex arm bit from the Swolecast back when you were on. I mean, the little kid who played with James and with James Winston at Florida State. I can't even remember his name. Nico Leary. Yeah, the stuff that happened like before the pandemic is like hard for me to remember. For some reason, there's like a mental block on things that happened before 2019, 2020. Um, I will go with, uh, gosh. You can do this. You can do this. There's, there's multiple of these guys from the mid 2000s that are still very fantasy, relevant players. It's like four tight ends. Mark Andrews. Mark Andrews definitely won it. Okay. Yes, that's one. You're going to have to get four. I gave you Nico Leary. You're going to have to get three more within the next 20 seconds. 20 seconds. No, there's, I'm not going to get two of them that are going between like pick 150 and 170 in current drafts right now. I mean, I, like, I'm not going to get it. Okay. All right. Well, Eli Stowell. He's here. Here's the list, dude. Uh, Hunter Henry. I want to look at it. Hunter Hawkinson. TJ Hawkinson. Uh, Tyler Eifert, Austin Saffarian Jenkins. You're noter Dame guys, man. I know. Gosh. Jake Butt. This is horrible. This is embarrassing. I want to apologize to everyone about this. This is pathetic that I did not get that. Jake Butt. Yep. Yeah. Hey, it's hard, man. It's hard about it. I mean, I guess it's no longer your bit. I don't think it's, it's, uh, longer your bit. Sorry to hear it, Silva. You know, yeah, Dago came, Dago came on the randomizer. I think it was last year and said, maybe the game had passed him by maybe the mother fucking macchi award, man. Maybe it's, um, maybe it's past you by. Tough. Tough. All right. Uh, we're going to move on though. This is a forward thinking show, Evan. You got this. All right. Dago's day out. Cue the next Dago ass player. This is another multimedia one. Evan must name three plus of the pictured locations that Dago frequents after his weekend long runs to take who he wants. This is, uh, this is something here. Uh, all right. Let me get these pictures ready. This is called Dago's day out. Are these like locations in Chicago or correct? So you'll see here when I pull this up. He's impossible, Pete. I mean, it's not with that, with that attitude, it might be with that attitude. Do you recognize this location? Oh my God. You know, I'm not going to get any of this. All right. We got Clark street. Can we get, I mean, can we get some more street names here? No, we only got Clark street. Yeah, you know what we're just, I mean, yeah, what, what could this be? Look at the photo. We'll zoom in. Okay. Is that, is that soldier field? No, it's the Lincoln Park Zoo. It's the Lincoln Park Zoo. Okay. Okay. Uh, next up, here we go. I want you to get this one. You got to get this one. I mean, it's rigly field. Correct. Correct. Rigly field. Uh, here's number three. We have the Kennedy Expressway. We have West Fullerton Avenue. We have a building near the water here. Okay. That should be, wait, Damien or Damien? Uh, Damien. Really? Unless the producers had a typo. I think they messed it up. Uh-oh. This is a spot. Dago goes after a long run, maybe having to do some shopping. Give me another clue. It's Costco. All right. Here we go. Dude, dude, like, I like live, like, right, but it's Damien. Okay. It's Damien. Yeah. Uh, producers are fired. Um, next one here. This is, uh, again, Damien and North Milwaukee Avenue here. Yeah. This is like, uh, I think this is more like a wicker park area. Uh, that's like where where he lives, I think. Uh, peace pizza. Yeah. Yeah. Right. Yep. Yep. Yep. Yeah. We're talking like wicker park, Bucktown. Yeah. Peace pizza, which he has talked smack about, by the way. And it's a great place. And we brought, during our ETR retreat, we brought all the guys to go to peace pizza. Everybody loved it after Dago had been talking smack. No one takes Dago's restaurant recommendations, uh, seriously anymore. All right. This is the final one. You did fail this prompt, but can you spot this last location here 25th Ave in West North Ave here? I hope you've never looked overhead maps of the city. Really? Have you ever been to Hooters, Evan? Yes, but there's not one in the city anymore. I don't think. Okay. Well, according to this, there's one right here. Okay. There might be one left in the city. Yeah. There's one left. There's is a dying restaurant, unfortunately. Why do you think that is? Um, I have a long explanation for why that happened. I have that we have to get into here. I would love to, I would love to hear are you saying we went woke? Uh, it got canceled. Cooters got canceled. Oh, yeah. Okay. All right. There you go. Uh, all right. So you did have to draft Eli Stauer. So this is your team so far, Silva, CMC Breeze Hall. Uh, I don't know when Jadarian Price ended up on this team. Oh, we just missed a prompt because we were spending so long doing that. Uh, that's just how it goes, but I hope you like Jadarian Price. Next clue. Uh, next prompt man is a machine Q Travis Hunter or a special team player. Evan shares a fitness or life hack that others would be surprised to hear to take who we Do you have a fitness tip? Do you have a life hack? Something you can share with the chat? Well, actually one thing that I've been doing recently is you know in order to not eat like after like six or seven p.m. at night brushing my teeth for some reason like takes away You know the the want to like eat some sort of a snack and get like nine or 10 p.m. And it it really works also like waking up in the morning the first thing you do brush your teeth Maybe removes that when you wake up from some hunger and it's been working pretty good. I Love that one there. It's yeah, man because then you say to yourself Like anytime if I you know like you know say you get the munchies and then you're like oh man Now I need to go and brush my teeth again after eating that seems like a pain in the ass. Yeah Yeah, I like that one. That's a that's a good one. There you go. Nice tip there from Silva All right, I'm gonna take Travis Hunter out of the queue. You're gonna get to pick whoever you want You have CMC Breeze Hall and Jadarian Price you were just gifted while we were looking at Hooter's locations in Chicago only one wide receiver Mike Evans you do have Tucker craft and Eli Stowers Marvin Harris in the top of the ranks here Does he still got it, man? Are as Marv just toast? I? Mean It's got to be mental with him because he was a truly dominant player in college and you know for multiple seasons and Was the fourth pick in the draft and I it just said the thing things have just not gone Well for him. I think it's I think is in his own head. So I don't think it's a talent issue Do you want to take him Pollard Warren Addison Reed Pierce? We're on the clock. We're dying for wide receiver helps. Let's take the chance on Marv All right, there it is Marv. Yeah, I saw that same video I think it was Scott Barrett had shared it where he's just like all I do is focus on the negative And I never think about anything positive and then I think it was today Michael floor talking about how He sees a lot of puka in Michael Wilson. So they're already I mean Probably need to get Michael Wilson that maybe ahead of Marvin Harrison at this point There you go Yeah, yeah, not not good there for Marv. All right, let's change a scenery or something get him out of Arizona I don't I don't know what the deal is yeah All right, this is called so you think you can pout Put the next Prima Donna wide receiver in the queue peat and Evan must complain about all of the good picks others are taking off the board Until their next turn to take who they want. So first of all who do we who's a who's a good Prima Donna? Wide receiver these days is it is it digs is it ayuk is there somebody else in here? That's a good Prima Donna I you've just lost his mind. I don't even think that he's a Prima Donna Digs is digs is a Prima Donna wouldn't she say? Yeah, yeah, all right, which which wide receiver let's I'm gonna start complaining. I mean let's see here Okay, can I really complain about Portland Sutton coming off the board? They took they took DAC they took DAC from us That pisses me off RJ Harvey Tony Pollard Are you pissed off about losing out on any of these picks? Jaden Reed would have been a good addition for us Yeah, he would have I mean basically any wide receiver with a pulse would be a good addition for this team Are you on team Jaden Reed Evan or team Matthew Golden? I'll take any of them because I think that those guys are you know this year No more rotation stuff at wide receiver know four or five men wide receiver rotation in Green Bay like those three dudes Jaden Reed Golden and Watson are gonna play the vast majority of the snaps And I think the packers are gonna throw the ball more and those guys are gonna benefit. I'll take any of them Um, I don't know about this prompt, but I do have to circle back because OG man's fans Yeah, I mean, there's a bunch of reasons why big things happen. So this absolutely could have contributed to I I think it has I mean, it's also like you know younger people do not like go sit at a bar and watch sports as much as as they used to And you sit at a bar and like drink all day and watch sports like like they used to there's a lot of reasons why Hooters is kind of gone for the audio listeners Jason's theory is Hooters is gone because every young horny dude has a phone with porn and all the breasts he needs We don't look at JC Penny catalog bra section to get our rocks off nowadays I feel like that's Given the wing quality You know kind of the short end of the stick. Can't you just go for the good wings? I don't think that young people want to go to bars anymore like they used to Syn epidemic. Wow. They don't want boobs. They don't want bars. They don't want wings. What happened to the men? The boobs aren't like they used to be because Hooters got canceled hmm, so It's just there's a lot of a lot of things that went into that Yeah, the demise of a massively popular Chain, I mean, there's it's not just one reason. It's like 14 different reasons Here I thought this prompt was going to be powdering about the wide receivers we get sniped on and actually we're still just pouting about Hooters Going to the wayside, so I'm actually going to give us a pass for this one Because there was pouting involved it just involved Hooters. I'll take digs out of the queue Worthy uh Michael Wilson Josh Downs Jacobi Myers pitman what wide receivers we go downs Yeah, good rhetoric on him so far in training camp Oh, we got sniped. No, really pouting Oh All right, let's go with pitman then Yeah, pitman I want to say I was just listening to the established the edge podcast and where they saying you have even pitman ahead of Metcalf and your race Oh, yeah, yeah, okay. Yeah pitman the much better fit for what Aaron Rogers does nowadays than DK Metcalf Yeah, so it is like will you have close to a full fade on Metcalf then just with him being more expensive He's got a full passes ADP. Yeah Yeah, and where are you at on the like you know one of the memes has been you know ETR being above market on Jeremy Bernard Do you like him as a player? Oh, I like him okay. I I don't know. I've probably done 40 drafts. I think I've got him maybe like three times But I mean I like him okay I do think that there's some truth to the Roman Wilson opening the season in the slot over him Yeah, people keep commenting that because I have a lot of Jeremy Bernard so I might need to uh To dig into that more uh all right next prompt round nine Gary and Deanna Q a Gary or Garrett. I'll take care of that Evan gives an impassioned speech about his feelings of the bears moving to Gary Including evidence as to why it's a good or bad idea to take we want do you have any takes on the bears moving to Gary They're they're moving to Hammond, Indiana Okay, and how do you know? He's right next door, but to you know in the interest of being specific Please yeah, I mean I think that Indiana is a more business-friendly state than is Illinois At this point and the bears think that they have an opportunity to make more money there and That's what the bears are built to do and the bears are like they have You know one of the smallest stadiums in the NFL might be the smallest stadium in the NFL and they're hemorrhaging money compared to other NFL teams Because of that because it's impossible to park because there's no Really nightlife around soldier field right now um and Illinois like kind of acted like they were never going to lose The bears like the bears would never leave And they thought they had it in the bag with Arlington Heights and they kind of blew it And um Yeah, I mean, I think that the favorite right now would be Hammond Indian I do still think that there's a little bit of a chance because the bears paid a bunch of money to buy real estate in Arlington Heights, Illinois I think 250 million dollars. They could sell that real estate too make that money back and go to Hammond and make more money in the business-friendly or state All right, you passed do you want to stack up Brock pretty as your first quarterback with CMC and Evans or get another wide receiver? Pretty all right, let's do it So how how far is that commute then for most it's not gonna be as big of a deal as people think it is uh, it's not bad Okay Do you go to a lot of bears games generally? No, I have been to like I've been to like a preseason game And a playoff game where I sat in the press box when I was working for NBC and that's like it I mean, I gotta work on Sundays. You you know that Oh, I thought you just were hitting hooters It is the it is the thing too. It's like you know, I live not far from Foxboro, but it's just like I never Take advantage because Sundays are too busy and so then it's like all right Then you look for an island game and then it's like Sunday nights busy and then right it ends up being just like a Thursday or Monday Or and then Monday. You're like do I want to be out on a Monday? Then it's like okay Thursday night It's just like there is a doubt quickly Yeah, and if you're out late on a Monday night or a Thursday night like you might affect your next day too Exactly, and then you're then you're losing a day and a half. It's yeah, I don't go to NFL games All right, are you okay? Q the 10th available running back Evan must sub tweet Josh Norris are you okay? And an announcement about his move to y'all to take who evid wants this is become an infamous meme in the randomizer streets Can you hit Josh Norris with an are you okay on twitter? So because because they butchered the, they butchered the the Twitter name here. Yeah. Do I have to tweet @joshnorris? Yeah. No, we would like you to fix the typo in your tweet. I'm not going to do that. Okay. Then how about you do it? Do it, as it said here, right to Josh Norris with two S's. I mean, then everyone's going to see that. Well, if you write to him, like if you do it like this, then only people who follow this, I'll just do it, man. I'll just do it. Look at this. See, this is growth. This is why we called this the redemption. We have Isaiah Pacheco is who you're going to get if you don't send this tweet. So just press, send carefully. Okay. All right. You seem like you're really struggling with composing this tweet. Okay. I can't wait to see this. This reveal is going to get. All right. We're on the clock. We got to find out has the tweet been sent. Oh, no, 20 seconds to send this tweet. Otherwise Isaiah Pacheco. Okay. Texting now. Texting. I mean. I'm refreshing rapidly. All right. I sent it. I sent it. Okay. All right. You did it. Okay. Quick. Who do you want? You want to want to Robinson Casey? Concepts you own. Concepts you own. Shit. I gave you one. It's okay. It's not Isaiah Pacheco though. Okay. Good. Here it is. Are you okay? The infamous callback to the old tweet there. Incredible. Retweeting it. This is ridiculous. That's right, brother. That is right. All right. I'm going to recap the team that we're going to spin again. Evan Silva is having the time of his life on the randomizer. It is the redemption randomizer. Brock Portia. Brock Portia quarterback. CMC Breeze Hall jadarian price at running back. Mike Evans, Marvin Harrison, Michael Pippin, Jr. Wondell Robinson and then tight ends Tucker Kraft, Eli Stowers, other than reaching massively for your tight ends, you're doing good here, man. Let's see here. The wheel bully. Put a bruiser running back or tight in the queue to take who he wants. Evan must provide a review of Pete's wheel applet. So just so you know, Evan, we used to use that like free thing wheel of names. You just go to a website or whatever. I built this. I've vibed coded this via artificial intelligence. And so I want you to give a review of how you think I've done something you like, something you dislike, maybe a feature you'd like to see me add to the randomizer here. Go ahead and critique my coding skills. So I got to think about your wheel that you created here and come up with an opinion. I want just yeah, this overall tech experience. I mean, I know you haven't been watching the show, but since you were last on our tech, we've really upped our game here. It looks great, man. Thank you. I mean, I don't have anything to I don't have any criticisms or can I just be positive and it's awesome. I would love can you leave a five-star review in the app store? Yeah, I mean, I'll try to figure out how to do that. Yeah. No, I mean, so it's just, you know, this is this is what it used to be, right? We used to go to, you know, wheel of names like this. And I'd have to go to the browser and come back. And now, now the wheel just pops up here in front of us. And the prompt actually goes down here. You see that? I still have a, a bottle opener, a randomizer bottle opener. Yeah. One of these. Yes, sir. That's right. Do you use it? No, not like I used to. All right. Well, because all you did was say glowing things about the new randomizer digs, you are going to get to pick whoever you want. Wide receivers, you're looking at like Shakira, Coker, in digs, Shakira as well. Tight end, you got the God or Andrews Ferguson, a couple of Macu award winners in there. Quarterback, Malik Willis, shock. Anyone catch your eye there? I mean, are we getting to the cliff drop period at quarterback a little bit? A little bit. Yeah. You want to grab a Willis or shock? Stroud. No. Let's get another wide receiver. Just take that wide receiver. Shakira, Coker, digs or should. All right. Let's get good. Okay. I don't care. Coker. Man, that the brazzle stuff. What a buzzkill. That is, huh? Yeah. That sucks for him. Brutal. Are there any other, we mentioned the 49er stuff? Are there any other kind of rankings updates that you're looking to make? Are you going to be aggressive on neighbors? Pretty aggressive. I mean, I at least want to be in line a little, maybe a little bit behind ADP on him. And I think he's going to go to three turn at this point. I think he's playing week one. Yep. I'm going to drop my homes a little bit. I don't know. I got a whole list. Oh, I'm moving up La Porta. La Porta a lot. I'm moving up La Porta. Oh, just on any news or just I want lines, dudes on my teams this year. I want to make sure that I'm at least at worst at ADP on every line's important lines guy. I like it, man. What the stuff, just the secondary being bad, the easy schedule, all the big team totals. Yeah. And I like, you know, we had Brandon Thorn on it, talk about the offensive line. Drew Petsing last year was letting Jacobi Bressette drop back to pass 50 times a game. What's he going to do with Jared golf? Who's Jared golf is like, you know, he's, he has his limitations, but if you, you know, you're talking about a pocket passer. I mean, he's like the prototype pocket passer. He's throwing a lot this year. All right. Here's this prompt. It's called buddy comedy. Goofy and Mitchell from so you think you can tell they would you with their buddy comedy adventures in Atlanta, including a trip to Magic City. If you planned a day for you in Levitan, what would be on the itinerary? No work, just play. What are you guys doing? Where are you taking Levitan? Levitan rolls up into Chicago and you say, we're going to have ourselves a day, Levie. Huh. I have like a sick gym that I go to and I know that he likes to be athletic, you know, and he likes to, he likes to move around. So I, I'd, I'd probably take him to the, to the gym. There's all kinds of stuff to do. They get an outdoor massive outdoor pool, massive indoor pool. All right. They got sick. They have like tennis tournaments there like he'd, you'd love it. Where are you guys getting lunch after? What? Where are you getting lunch after the gym? Yeah, there's a restaurant in the, in the gym. Oh, a restaurant in the gym. Wow. Yeah. It's an awesome gym. And then I assume you guys are just, and then you're taking a nap at the gym and then doing dinner at the gym. The gym. Some people go to the gym and work there like all day, they just like live at the gym. Is this, is it a lifetime? It does sound kind of like a lifetime fitness. It's not lifetime. It's better. Okay. There you go. There you go. All right. That actually, you know, it, it doesn't have quite the fireworks that I'd expect from a day out with, with Levitan, but you know Levitan, right? Levitan doesn't want to get wild. He's not wanting to get belligerent. No, no. Okay. All right. I think that was, that was true and honest. After we've got ways with Levitan, you know, I know who to call it. Who is getting that call? Was. Was. Hey, you want to swing by, fix my monitor and then head to hood. All right. Sam Dardled, Kim Ward, if you want to grab a quarterback here, Stribbling is obviously rocketing up these days. I mean, can we afford to pass? I mean, I think we don't want to hit the cliff, drop a quarterback. It gets real bad. Yeah. So the question is, do you like naked Stroud or Darnell? There would you reach that young. Kidmin. Oh, yeah. And no one wants to draft Aaron Rodgers understandably. We can wait on Rodgers. I will say that his 80 piece for the Stribbling just go. Uh, no, he's here. You want to grab Stribbling? Take Stribbling. Let's do it. Let's, let's have the Stribbling conversation. What's the official still the stance? You know, overdrafted by everyone who, you know, uh, does prospecting. And yet the runway is just absolutely clear for this dude right now. Yeah. And he's big. He's like six, two, six, three, two, ten. And you ran four, three, six. And look, I understand it from an analytical standpoint. He doesn't look. Great, you know, from a production standpoint on college in college Sorry, I'm just getting over this cold, which I didn't shed before I go meet the baby What are we doing this? Yeah, no, I mean it's big and fast. You can block you'll get on the field Ricky Pearceau is out of commission boom Do on struggling on the field. I thought even before Pearceau went down. He was gonna be the starting slot receiver day one for the four years. Yeah Yeah, I mean, do you think at this point if the Pearceau, I mean, they have to be in the market to sign a free agent, right? Yeah, yeah, they might bring bring in Debo Bring him back. Yeah Which then is kind of interesting because the way the team's talking about Stribbling is like a Debo type where they're like he's big. He's physical. He can block and stuff But I guess we'll cross that bridge when it comes all right We contain multitudes round 13 prompt Evan is known for his football knowledge to take who he wants Evan must share an interest. He has which the chat would be surprised to hear Basically any secret hobbies interest otherwise take a Joker or Swiss Army knife player What's something you're into these days that people might not know collecting like sports memorabilia. Oh, okay And and even like sports cards and I don't know if you can say this one just came in the mail Can you see that? Hey, I'm gonna put it up on the screen Who is that Diana Rossini tops out on a jitter refractor Did you buy that on eBay? Yeah? Wow, how much did that cost you gonna go up in value? How much did that cost you? $4 plus including shipping and You you you accused me of doing bits and my man's out here by and Diana Rossini cards off at eBay with his free time Well, you know, I tried to get Adam and Taylor to try to get her on get her on the roster That's what I heard you are and yeah, we talked about it But we didn't make it happen in the end and so I just wanted to have that momentum Evan I say this sincerely. I would have paid so much money to hear that conversation of you pitching Taylor on adding recidi All right, we are on the clock here the quarterback stuff Do you want to get Bryce young or Aaron Rogers? Who do you like more with the stacked up quarterback or we probably should take both But we'll take Aaron Rogers and stack no Bryce young. We'll take Bryce young. Yeah, cuz we're a cooker Yeah, and we could still get Rogers coming back What it what was Taylor did did Taylor laugh when you pitched that or did he hear you I first texted him about it And he was like and he responded all think about it so he Like I mean, he was at least mildly receptive to it at first And then we we had our retreat and we talked about it. It's just kind of a joke We were arguing about how much she would cost and I I said that I would take a pay cut You know, you know how our president doesn't take a salary well, I was gonna I was gonna offer to not take a salary To cover every city's insurance. Yeah Incredible also just on the stripling stuff this report Just came out from underdog here Ricky Pearson update at this point I think it's reasonable rational logical for the 49ers to not expect Ricky Pearson to make any contribution in 2026 I don't know how Reputable this guy is he's got a hundred and seventy two thousand four 49ers beat rider ever So he's so pierce all it's it's GGs. It's done Yeah, do you know how sad that is Evan you can't you You used to be able to remind us all that this guy got shot every single time his name came up in a fantasy football conversation You're not gonna be able to do that this year I mean I was already kind of not in on him because I saw him practicing all offseason in a brace and I know the history of BCL So it's not really gonna ruin any of my takes or anything like that. It's just sad because I think Someone was talking about it yesterday like Ricky Pearson played five years in college. He never missed a game due to injury So it's just bad luck and it's bad luck for the for the PCL All right, we have another prompt to do here This is called we the people cue the next three patriots in reverse order. That's Macholms de Mario Douglas and Keisha on booty For each item Evan can bring back a revolutionary era or patriotic significance clear a player from the queue This is basically do you have any Americana memorabilia within reach you can clear the cue for each item that you bring back you got flags Do you got lapels do you got buttons you got mugs you got penance Trinkets I Need to see your patriotism on display now otherwise we will celebrate by Drafting a man who does not wear shoes I mean I have I thought you were an American how many do you need three to not have to draft one of these patriots, but one to not have to draft Mac Hollins You You got anything What are you eating You get that no what I didn't oh USA, okay, Macholms is coming out of the queue. Is that all we had? Yeah, I mean there's probably a decent patriot to take right Yeah, it's so it's you're gonna stuff around here, but You're right you're gonna take Yeah, you're you're gonna take tomorrow Douglas. That's the punishment. What? Yeah, I told you I told you you don't want to play ball You're gonna have to take one of these dust ball Patriots wide receivers that was the prompt sir, okay What do you make of the Keisha on booty? Star of training camp buzz. I Mean I think that he can win downfield and that's what You know, that's the way that he was used last year and I mean, I'm not surprised that he's winning downfield With you know in practices with no pads on and Drake may back healthy. I think Drake may was playing through an injury in the Super Bowl And so Yeah, I mean, it's not surprising. That's that's how that's how Keisha on booty wins Yeah, all right, there you go This prompt for round 15 is called we're here to draft a good team Q Tyler good son Evan must describe the defining feature of a good team in 2026 to take who he wants Evan what What comprises a good team? What what do you need to accomplish in a draft for it to be good? phone calls here Is it Ross? No, um Okay What what's the defining feature of a good team is it value is it stacking is it your player targets is it young players what makes a good team? Very important to get at least to stud touch, you know high touchdown scoring our b's Okay, I mean, I don't think that you can survive with that especially in the format that we're playing right now And and ideally three and then I think that if if you get three or four You can use different positional allocation to different and get deeper at, you know draft eight wide receivers or three tight ends I mean, that's the way that I've been kind of approaching. I want to get three dogs at RB at a minimum - Okay, I do want to talk about that. We are on the clock. You want to grab Rogers? He does come all the way back to us here. Sure So on that thing so looking at the board Assuming you get three running backs to start and I'm going to try to work within the the normal constraints of ADP What would you like better like back half of the board you get like this Gentie Barclay ETN or Front half of the board you get Gibbs Jeremiah love Breeze Hall which of those three sides or if you start three running backs front half or back half of the board What I'm I'm telling you I'm telling you three running back viable starts one from the one-on-one one from the back And I'm asking you which you like better Gibbs Jeremiah love and Breeze Hall verse Gentie Barclay Travis ETN They're about even okay good talk I'm glad we could I will take the Gibbs side because it has Gibbs, okay, all right You know just it should so that I'm just trying to make conversation, you know where I'm sorry No, I'm a little bit deterred.
