Quarterback Analysis

Kyler Murray

Kyler Murray emerges as a top prospect, praised for his dual-threat capabilities both in passing and rushing. The hosts agree on his potential to be a high-impact fantasy quarterback.

Jason Moore [14:26]: "If you take away his running, he is the best pocket quarterback in the draft."

Andy emphasizes Kyler's consistency and readiness to start from day one, making him a valuable pick.

Dwayne Haskins

Dwayne Haskins is met with mixed opinions. While his collegiate performance is lauded, concerns about his real-world NFL readiness and mobility persist.

Andy Holloway [16:13]: "I don't believe, fantasy wise or NFL wise, you're going to see a huge impact in year one from Dwayne Haskins."

Mike highlights the uncertainties surrounding Haskins' transition to the NFL, especially considering his limited starting experience.

Drew Lock

Drew Lock is discussed as a potential second-round quarterback with a promising ceiling, provided he lands in the right system.

Jason Moore [20:38]: "There's a gap between Kyler Murray and him. I'm not super excited about any of the quarterbacks, but if I had to take a second guy, it would be Drew."

Daniel Jones

Daniel Jones is mentioned briefly, with the hosts not delving deeply into his prospects in this episode.

Wide Receiver Analysis

Nikhil Harry

Nikhil Harry is lauded for his size, speed, and versatility. The hosts see him as a top fantasy wide receiver prospect who can thrive regardless of the team he joins.

Mike Wright [26:08]: "He's my number one wide receiver for fantasy."

D.K. Metcalf

D.K. Metcalf is characterized as a blend of exceptional speed and size, making him a potential game-changer. However, concerns about his usage in college and injury history are noted.

Jason Moore [29:32]: "If he goes to a good team, he’s a superstar."

A.J. Brown

A.J. Brown is described as a possession receiver with impressive college stats. His adaptability and route-running skills make him a valuable asset.

DJ Moore [29:51]: "He’s a very good wide receiver. I’ve got him as kind of an Anquan Boldin comp."

Kelvin Harmon

Kelvin Harmon is discussed as a competitive receiver with strong ball skills but flagged for his separation and speed limitations.

Jason Moore [34:20]: "I don’t see him as a fantasy superstar."

Hakeem Butler

Hakeem Butler stands out as a physically gifted receiver with a high ceiling. His ability to perform Randy Moss-esque plays makes him a coveted fantasy prospect.

Andy Holloway [35:12]: "I like the fact of him being with a quarterback that can extend the play, take advantage of his size and strength."

Miles Boykin

Miles Boykin is praised for his athleticism and potential, though there's skepticism about how his college performance translates to the NFL.

Mike Wright [38:38]: "He is a true world-class, above DK Metcalf, above these other guys."

Hollywood Brown

Hollywood Brown is highlighted as a dynamic receiver with exceptional speed, though concerns about his actual on-field performance versus his combine metrics are raised.

Jason Moore [39:20]: "I think he’s overhyped because of his combine results."

Paris Campbell & Andy Isabella

Both are recognized for their speed and versatility, with Paris Campbell noted for his intelligent playmaking and Andy Isabella for his refined route running.

Mike Wright [45:55]: "I really like Paris Campbell. He could actually succeed if he went to Baltimore."

Transcript

[Andy Holloway]

Hey, Foot clan. Another message from dad. Well, dad and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Remember, if you ever stopped at a railway crossing and the signals are flashing, you don't see the train or it looks like it's moving slow and you're thinking you can get across, don't do it. Right, Mike? Don't do it. 270 people last year alone were killed at railway crossings. Taking the chance. 270. Make sure you stop. Don't take a chance. Stop. Because trains can't.

[Jason Moore]

Welcome in to the fantasy footballers, Andy, Mike and Jason. Back again. Thursday, April 25th. It is draft day. Draft is here. Well, almost here. You're listening to this.

[Mike Wright]

It could be happening right now.

[Andy Holloway]

It could be, yeah. I mean, you might be listening to this after the draft, but we have great show for you today. More draft preview. We're going to talk through the quarterbacks, the wide receivers, get you caught up on some news and notes, including some very recent Tyreek Hill news. We've got predictions on the show today where we think some of the top prospects may land. What are the stakes, fellas? We don't. We didn't even talk about stakes.

[Mike Wright]

They are medium rare.

[Jason Moore]

Yes, of course.

[Andy Holloway]

So maybe that is the stakes. Maybe the two victors. Well, go get some steaks. And the other person eats a salad, eggplant, something. I mean, when other people are eating.

[Mike Wright]

I will not eat eggplant again. No, my foot will go down.

[Andy Holloway]

Well, you should win the bet. I mean, that would protect you. But if two of us were eating delicious steaks and the other person, no matter what they eat, it tastes like eggplant at that point. Because by comparison.

[Mike Wright]

See, I'm fine with that.

[Andy Holloway]

I can be on board because you're a salad guy.

[Mike Wright]

Well, I just. I remember we had one of the food bets, you're a rabbit, where Jason and I did that. We pulled dope on you. We went to a barbecue place, we came back with ribs, everything, all the fixings. You had a side salad and it was far better than getting you something that you didn't want to eat.

[Andy Holloway]

Would it be funny if for like a week we ordered food for everybody, but then the loser had to wait an hour and eat it cold every single time? Like they have to sit in the room while everybody else is eating?

[Mike Wright]

Yeah, we're not getting Jason to do it.

[Jason Moore]

I Lose that bet.

[Andy Holloway]

He'll be like, can we order?

[Jason Moore]

Lunch will burn to the ground. This show will be over.

[Andy Holloway]

Taking you with me, you couldn't handle one hour of the smells of food.

[Jason Moore]

I can't handle the hour leading up to whenever normal lunchtime is true. So an hour after that is just. I'm gone.

[Andy Holloway]

Get in there. Do it.

[Mike Wright]

I have two quick notes.

[Andy Holloway]

Okay. Welcome back. By the way, you pushed through on the Tuesday show. You did not come into work yesterday.

[Mike Wright]

No, I did not make it. It was a sensation that I've never experienced. Not a pretty picture with my body. But anyways, my quick notes about that, if you already pre ordered, guess what? You're already in the drawing because we've had people ask that question quite a few times. And you, you are already in it. And two, speaking of tour, there will be big fantasy footballers news next week.

[Andy Holloway]

All right, quick question of the day. We're talking perfect marriage Guys, perfect marriage, something I know a lot about.

[Mike Wright]

Mm. That's what we've heard.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah. Pick a perfect team player. Marriage for fantasy football. If you could make your ultimate. Your ultimate selection for what happens tonight at the draft, what team, what player?

[Jason Moore]

So this one might seem selfish. It's really not. Has nothing to do with the fact that I'm an Arizona Cardinals fan and I would like them to draft Kyler Murray. The reason I'm saying Kyler Murray to Arizona is the best matchup is because where Kyler Murray goes in the draft is going to make a huge difference. Right. The two biggest, you know, odds on favorites right now seem to be the Cardinals and the Raiders. I think that Kyler Murray going to Greg Olson and Jon Gruden and you know, that mess is not going to be as good for him as continuing the air raid offense with Cliff Kingsbury. So I think that's the right marriage for Kyler Murray.

[Andy Holloway]

I get it. I get it. That makes sense. And the higher the draft capital on a guy like Murray, the more guarantee you have that he's the guy from day one. So, you know, you bring up Oakland, what happens? I mean, it goes to Oakland. Is he the starter on day one?

[Mike Wright]

I bet if he goes to Oakland, Derek Carr quickly becomes available.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah. The car is on the road.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah. Yeah. All right, Mike, who do you. Who do you.

[Mike Wright]

That one was bad.

[Andy Holloway]

Who do you have for your perfect marriage in the draft? By the way, last year, in case you're curious, I went with Baker Mayfield to Arizona. Would be a perfect marriage. Jason had Josh Rosen going to the Saints. Mike had Cortland Sutton going to the Packers. Would have been interesting. But this year, Mike, what do you got?

[Mike Wright]

I got no offend going to the Titans. Delaney Walker. Gonna need a Walker pretty soon.

[Andy Holloway]

Come on.

[Mike Wright]

In terms of NFL age, he's getting up there. Allegedly, he's going to be back. But we know how much Marcus Mariota likes throwing to the tight end. Get a hyper, athletic one out there. I think that that will work out very well for that team.

[Andy Holloway]

All right. All right, I'm going to throw this out there. We're going to talk about some news momentarily. We don't know exactly.

[Mike Wright]

I like how yours is written in because Jason wrote Murray to slash Arizona.

[Andy Holloway]

Oh.

[Mike Wright]

I wrote Fant to slash the Titans.

[Andy Holloway]

And I wrote Hakeem Butler to the Patrick Mahomes.

[Mike Wright]

I didn't even write the Chiefs.

[Andy Holloway]

The perfect marriage is Hakeem Butler and Patrick Mahomes. I am a huge Hakeem Butler fan. It is Rare to see a player at 66 with, I just think an incredible set of skills. He's super fast. Is he a perfect route runner? No, but Patrick Mahomes makes up for that. I mean, extends the play, takes advantage of size and speed. There's no more perfect a marriage than Hakeem Butler to Kansas City if we don't have Tyree Kill for an extended portion of time, which we'll talk about right now.

[Jason Moore]

News and notes from around the league presented by Sleeper.

[Andy Holloway]

At the time of this recording, we had just gotten done watching the press conference from the district attorney in Kansas City talking about Tyreek Hill and the child abuse case. No charges will be filed. The district attorney did express the fact that he believes the crime was committed, but they cannot prove without reasonable doubt that either Tyreek Hill or his girlfriend committed the crime. I will. I want to read from what I think came through on Rotoworld because I think it sums it up properly. So credit to Rotterworld on this summary of the situation legally as it pertains to the NFL says although Tyree Kill is now legally in the clear, he is likely to face NFL discipline in the form of a lengthy suspension. There is still the chance he's released by the Chiefs, though they have a mixed record on these matters because the Chiefs just signed Frank Clark, who has a domestic abuse arrest from college. And here we are. Now, I think we all kind of hoped for a little bit more finality to the situation this afternoon. Whether that was Tyreek Hill would be completely exonerated of any and all culpability, even in the NFL's eyes, or we would have definitive notion that he'd be. Yeah, he'd be arrested, he'd be released, and we would know. Clearly, fantasy is the secondary issue in this entire matter. This is a fantasy show. We're giving you the lay of the land. We have a league right now where we're picking our definitive keepers at the draft, at the NFL draft. That's just when we do it every year. Well, I have to sit there and I have to look at Tyree Kill and say, do I take a chance on keeping Tyree Kill? I'm not going to. So that's the best advice I can give is what I'm going to do.

[Mike Wright]

Right?

[Andy Holloway]

I'm not going to take my chances with him. I think the suspension could be six to 10 games. I think while a low probability, there's still a chance that he's released entirely by the Chiefs. More information could come out. You never know what hits Social media, I'm not going to mess with it. Do you guys have additional thoughts or.

[Mike Wright]

Context just to clarify? Because people may be wondering, well, if he's legally. Nothing's going to happen. That doesn't matter to the NFL. The personal conduct policy is a very large blanket that basically says the NFL has the authority to look at you and say you have done harm to the league. We will now take action. I mean, if you look back, there are plenty of circumstances where people did not get in legal trouble, but they got in trouble with the NFL.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah. I mean recently, Ezekiel Elliott, you had Big Ben Roethlisberger, Jamie Swinston. The NFL conducts throwing investigations and at the end of the day, Tyreek Hill was accused, was investigated for. I should say that's not good. He was investigated for child abuse. So that at the end of the day, that is his crime against the NFL's conduct policy. As of today, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Marshawn lynch is officially retiring from the NFL yet again after 12 seasons.

[Mike Wright]

Goodbye, Beast mode.

[Andy Holloway]

Yes, mercifully doing it before the NFL draft so that the Raiders can make a decision on a potential additional running back.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah.

[Andy Holloway]

Which will say a lot about Isaiah Cruell, Jalen Richard and Chris Warren. I think they'll take a running back. Steelers have signed quarterback big Ben roethlisberger to a two year extension through 2021. He continues to almost retire for a couple of more years. So he gets a lot, he gets a lot of money. He gets a lot of money.

[Mike Wright]

So bizarre.

[Andy Holloway]

That was that two years ago leverage, man.

[Jason Moore]

I think if you are worried, if you're a general manager, you're worried that your quarterback is like talking about, you know, Philip Rivers, maybe he's going to retire, go draft his replacement like they did with Mason Rudolph and then Philip Rivers would be like, no, I'm never, I'm, I'm, I'm never leaving. I'm here forever. That's what Big Ben did.

[Andy Holloway]

I thought you were going to say like if you're a young quarterback like Baker just said he might retire this year without an extension. So. No. The Rams have exercised the fifth year option on Jared Goff and we talked about the big Frank Clark signing the defensive end going from the Seahawks to the Chiefs and then extended to a big old five year contract.

[Mike Wright]

You know, that was a big trade. So the Seahawks now have two first rounders this year.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah. Boom, boom. Kicker news for Jason.

[Jason Moore]

Oh, man.

[Andy Holloway]

Ravens have signed Justin tucker to a four year deal. 23 million bones.

[Jason Moore]

Heck yeah.

[Andy Holloway]

And there you go. Jonathan Stewart is retired. Officially.

[Mike Wright]

Come on.

[Jason Moore]

Why go? Well, I'm just saying he retired like three years ago. Let's.

[Andy Holloway]

He retired one year ago. I'll say that last year was kind of just a. That was a paycheck.

[Jason Moore]

I'll take two years ago.

[Andy Holloway]

All right, that was today's news and notes brought to you by Sleeper grab, the sleeper app. Look, if you hate your fantasy app, please check out the sleeper app. They are the best iOS Android. Get it Today. I think it's time to get into some more rookies. Hey, rookie.

[Jason Moore]

Welcome to the NFL.

[Andy Holloway]

Quarterbacks, wide receivers. I'm more excited to talk about the wideouts, but we'll start with the quarterbacks. And we'll start with a guy that has a history, a history of winning. Yes, he does. Kyler Murray from Oklahoma could end up being the second Oklahoma quarterback taken at the top of the draft in consecutive years. A monstrous season when you look at the numbers, what he did on the field. Heisman trophy winner. The only mark against Kyler Murray that stands out has been his stature, right? 510, 207. Dual threat, very accurate in college. 42 touchdown passes to seven interceptions. He was a machine in Oklahoma. For fantasy purposes, we expect him to be very relevant very soon, no matter where he lands.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah, I'm not usually a draft a quarterback early in a rookie draft, but Kyler Murray is different because Kyler Murray is like, I know, completely different build, obviously, but when you've got a guy like Cam Newton who's going to throw a lot and he's going to run a lot, your fantasy points are just going to be through the roof. And you might say, well, you know, why am I high on Kyler Murray and I am high on Lamar Jackson, but I worry about Lamar Jackson being injured. The difference is how Kyler Murray protects himself. Lamar Jackson's always looking for that extra yard, trying to pick it up. Kyler Murray knows that he's 510 and he, I mean, he'll. He'll be about to take a sack. He'll just go down. He's waiting to play the next down. He'll run out of bounds. He'll slide with three yards that he could pick up. And he knows I've already picked up enough. He is the best, in my opinion, coming out of this, he's the best passer in the draft. If you take away his running, he is the best pocket quarterback in the draft. And that's not fair to say pocket, because he, he's great on the move. But he's the best passing quarterback. But then he's also the best rushing quarterback in this draft class. You get both wherever he goes. For fantasy purposes, I will be very high in my dynasty rankings and my rookie rankings on Kyler.

[Andy Holloway]

Okay, Mike, do you have anything you want to add on Kyler Murray?

[Mike Wright]

Yeah, the one red flag for me, I mean obviously is his size, but he was a starter for one year and that's always a little scary to me. I know it was an incredible year and he is. Well, he at least looks like he's the best quarterback in this class. Only starting one year. It can be sketchy at best.

[Andy Holloway]

By the way, I mean this show, we talked about it on Tuesday. The purpose is to give you some name awareness so you can pay attention as a fantasy football fan in the NFL draft. Guys that we like on film, guys that we believe have the ability to produce at the NFL level, so much depends on the fit. But at the top of the draft, somebody like Kyler, if he goes in that top 10 picks, he's going to likely be the day one starter coming into the NFL. Now Dwayne Haskins is the next name I want to bring up from Ohio State. Two year starter. Really predominantly his production all came in this last year. So he has the same problem as Kyler. 50 touchdowns, eight picks. He was the most disappointing to me on film. Now I don't claim to be a world renowned scout, but I have watched film of college quarterbacks over recent years. Haskins was extremely productive at Ohio State and you're in a system and on a team that was one of the best in the country. To me he took too many of the. The offense was set up in a situation where there was a lot of one read, a lot of screen game for Haskins. I didn't see him step into enough throws, step into the pocket. He didn't seem like he had the opportunity. Maybe it was the offense's fault to improvise and show me some of the things that I think are needed at the NFL level. Scouts seem to have followed this train a little bit more of late with some saying he may drop into the second round, could be the fourth or fifth quarterback off the board. There are others who believe, you know, that Washington's going to trade up into the top five to try to get him. So I think the opinion is all over the board. He has the size that Kyler doesn't have. 63231. When you guys looked at Dwayne Haskins on film I saw a solid but not spectacular bottom half NFL starter. Did you see a ceiling much higher than that?

[Jason Moore]

You know, I wasn't 100% sure on your take, but I will say that I'm in complete agreement. I don't get Dwayne Haskins and again, I'm not a professional scout. You know, we watch the NFL far more. But he's immobile. I mean, he is, he can move around the pocket a little bit, but I mean, he's not a mobile quarterback by any means. Josh Rosen could move around the pocket a little bit and you would say that's a liability. He's a liability. And then his passing game, so much of his, you know, I just watched a couple games where it was just over and over throws, three touchdowns. His numbers look great. It was a screen that Paris Campbell juked. Someone took it to the house. I did not see an accurate quarterback. I mean, he's got a strong arm. I think he is like a second round type of quarterback talent. So I've been surprised when I look up, you know, people that I respect and they've got him number one, you know, going into this year.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah, he was kind of thought of as the one before Kyler mania took over.

[Jason Moore]

Right. But even before Kyler mania took over, when we weren't sure, maybe he's not even an NFL player, he's going to go play baseball. All I kept hearing was, this is a really bad quarterback class.

[Andy Holloway]

I was going to bring that point up. There has to be a number two, there has to be a number three. Like in any class, whether it's Blaine Gabbard's class or.

[Jason Moore]

Whoa, woof.

[Mike Wright]

Don't talk about that.

[Jason Moore]

This reminds me of that.

[Andy Holloway]

Well, and I don't want to disrespect any of the things that Haskins did at the collegiate level because it was prolific.

[Mike Wright]

Yeah, it was monster production last year.

[Andy Holloway]

Incredible completion percentage, I think, because of a lot of the design, single route, 50 touchdowns. But I just am not at the level where I believe, fantasy wise or NFL wise, you're going to see a huge impact in year one from Dwayne Haskins.

[Mike Wright]

I, I'm kind of in the middle. I see, I see the tools, but I also see the red flags as well. But it's, it's hard to ignore a guy who completed 70% of his passes through for almost 5,000 yards.

[Andy Holloway]

No doubt.

[Mike Wright]

Touchdowns.

[Andy Holloway]

No doubt.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah, there will be people.

[Andy Holloway]

Is there a fit for Dwayne Haskins that you see out of the gate, that you're like it would change that wishy washy thought on him to, oh man, that's where he needs to go. Like, if he walked into Oakland as the new starter, if he walked into Washington, I'm not excited.

[Jason Moore]

The only place that comes to mind at all, and it's not a joke, would be the Los Angeles Rams. If he drops in the draft and they draft him as I don't want to pay for golf long term and keep a rookie like, but that's not going to happen.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah, you're trying to find a situation where you'd be excited.

[Jason Moore]

I'd be like, okay, he can play this style of game. Before we get to Drew Locke, who I like more than Dwayne Haskins.

[Mike Wright]

Spoilers, man.

[Andy Holloway]

I know.

[Jason Moore]

We love spoilers.

[Andy Holloway]

You might like him more.

[Jason Moore]

I might or might not. Stay tuned. But hey, I wanted to tell everybody about a new cool sports podcast called Sports Wars.

[Andy Holloway]

I'm seeing it everywhere.

[Jason Moore]

Everywhere. There's a saying most athletes abide by. Play like you're in first, train like you're in second. Well, in the new podcast from Wondery Sports wars, you'll hear what happens when some of the most elite athletes take that phrase to heart. And there's some great back and forth battles on these podcasts. Here's some examples. Veteran Brett Favreau being challenged when Aaron Rodgers was drafted. Or Isaiah Thomas's beef with Michael Jordan after he missed out on the Dream Team. Or Rafael Nadal's and Roger Federer's battle for the title of the greatest tennis player of all time. These are really cool stories. You like sports? You like sports stories. So subscribe to Sports wars on Apple podcasts, Spotify, Pandora or wherever you are listening now.

[Andy Holloway]

Are they going to profile kind of like mine and your battle, the Winston Matt Ryan situation?

[Jason Moore]

Yes, we should, we should reach out.

[Andy Holloway]

Wondering, just kidding. To that level?

[Jason Moore]

Yeah, for sure. It's a little higher, but it's in that, in that ballpark.

[Andy Holloway]

All right, Drew Locke. I think a lot of people are on different sides of the fence with Drew Locke. The Haskins side, the lock side. I saw a lot of the things out of Drew Locke, like when I went through quarterback film that I didn't see out of Dwayne Haskins. I saw a player that was, had a lot more guts and frivolity to his game. Downfield thrower. I do question whether he can take the next step, whether he's in the right system at the next level. But I liked a little bit more out of the improv nature of Drew Locke to say hey, if you put him with the right coach on the right team, maybe you have something a little bit with a higher ceiling, I guess than where I saw Dwayne Haskins. Mike, your view on Drew Locke. Jason, what do you think?

[Mike Wright]

I just have. I have Haskins as my number two, but that's by like a, a hair over Drew Locke. It's.

[Andy Holloway]

I don't think they like a lock of hair.

[Mike Wright]

Oh, my man.

[Andy Holloway]

What you're saying?

[Mike Wright]

That's what I'm saying. And so these guys are razor thin close to me. So in like you were talking about for landing spot that you could get excited about, we're going to give our predictions here, but what are the obvious teams are? Washington, Denver, Den. They're sort of. But like the real obvious ones to me are Washington and Miami.

[Jason Moore]

And it's, it's not a good spot for a quarterback to go.

[Andy Holloway]

Well, that's going to be the case for the majority of the like first year. Relevance, fantasy football relevance. We need to move through quarterbacks quick, right on this show because I want to talk about guys that will have potential week, year one impact at wide receiver.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah.

[Andy Holloway]

Is that fair?

[Jason Moore]

Yeah, that's fair. Drew Locke's my number two quarterback, but there's a gap between Kyler Murray and him. I'm not super excited about any of the quarterbacks, but if I had to take a second guy, it would be Drew.

[Andy Holloway]

Do you believe how many quarter. How many quarterbacks you think go in the first round? I think it's four.

[Jason Moore]

Four? I think three.

[Andy Holloway]

Okay, Will, who do we have next on the list? Daniel Jones. Yeah, I'll talk about Daniel Jones.

[Mike Wright]

Not really.

[Andy Holloway]

Who do you want to talk about?

[Mike Wright]

Wide receivers, because Daniel Jones and Drew Locke. I mean, it's like you can watch it. You can see with Daniel Jones, you can see the tools. You can see that he has some of the NFL caliber stuff. But then you watch, he'll follow that, throw up with. What were you possibly thinking?

[Andy Holloway]

He's the Mitcher Bisky of the draft for me.

[Mike Wright]

Oh, really?

[Andy Holloway]

Smaller school. Interesting in terms of like competition and huge size. People like him because he's 6, 5, 2, 21.

[Mike Wright]

He's the guy I most like or would most want to see on John Gruden's quarterback camp and have Gruden pull up these plays and go, okay, what were you supposed to do and why did you do this?

[Andy Holloway]

I think he was the highest Wonderlic score, wasn't he?

[Mike Wright]

Okay, well, I would like to put him through my quarterback.

[Andy Holloway]

All right, let's Turn. We will. We'll fast forward a little bit. We'll jump into wide receivers. I think it's more important for fantasy owners to become aware of these names because of all the positions in the draft you're going to see more high profile wide receivers go in the first two rounds that have great relevance I think to the next five, six, seven years the NFL than any other position. Now there's not a consensus guaranteed numero uno guy, at least by my estimation. I would agree in this group for a while there. Instagram wise, Metcalf is at the top of the list if you want to lean on Instagram photos. But we don't do that. So let's start with Nagil Harry. Nikhil Harry out of Arizona State 64228 He I think he didn't he weigh in a little bit shorter than that or I'm sorry, not weigh in. That was a Jason moment. Don't you like getting blamed for things.

[Jason Moore]

That you don't even say nothing and I'm still rolling.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah, but you thought he weighed in shorter, didn't you?

[Jason Moore]

I did. He weighed in at 6:3.

[Andy Holloway]

He plays big though. He plays big. He's shifty. A lot of opportunity Arizona State to get the ball in the screen game and make something happen. He was involved in the return game there as well. He is a big boy. What do we like about Nikhil Harry and is there some fits that you think you know some, some teams that you don't want to see him go to? Do you want him? Do you want to see him in a situation where he is thrown into a one or two role early or do you think he's somebody that needs.

[Mike Wright]

To develop, probably needs some time to develop but I would not be mad at all if he got taken as a number one. He's my number one wide receiver for fantasy.

[Andy Holloway]

Makes me so happy of this draft.

[Mike Wright]

Class because he had, he has everything. He has two years of production of real solid production. He's an athletic monster and he's big. I mean he checks all the three boxes of what I want to see. So the one team where I don't want to see any wide receiver go to, at least for fantasy purposes and sorry it's Baltimore. I just, it would be sad to me to see Nikhil Harry or AJ Brown end up in Baltimore where I know they, the offense is not going to run through them.

[Andy Holloway]

Is it similar to maybe how we felt about like DJ Moore's opportunity in Carolina last year where we know that one of these guys is going to Baltimore. I mean one of the ten guys we talk about today is going to be thrust into the situation where we're depending not just on them to become something, but Lamar Jackson to become something in the passing game.

[Mike Wright]

Right?

[Jason Moore]

Yeah. I think they'll take a downfield guy. Having lost John Brown. That's not really. I mean, Akil Harry can get down, but he's not thought of as a burner. He's a really, really, really well rounded player. I feel like he does everything not, not just like everything. All right. He does everything very well. Except, you know, there's a knock on. He's not an extreme separator but he. This is the year of the big wide receiver. There's like, there's like 10 monstrous human beings that are 220 plus pounds, six three or taller and run four, five or you know, quicker. So it's, it's really unbelievable. Nikhil Harry, to me, he doesn't have the ceiling that say Hakeem Butler or DK Metcalf have, but I think his floor is so safe.

[Andy Holloway]

I agree with that.

[Jason Moore]

He might be my number one wide receiver in a dynasty draft depending on his location because I don't see him failing. I don't see. Even if he ends up becoming the number two for his team, I think he's going to be a very successful NFL wide receiver. He's just, he's, he's great at too many things. I think he's a good route runner. He lines up everywhere.

[Andy Holloway]

I can relate to that.

[Jason Moore]

He's on the left, the right slot, great contested catch. So what? There's not a. You're nitpicking when you don't like Nikhil Harry.

[Andy Holloway]

Let's talk about a couple of Ole Miss receivers. All right. D.K. metcalf, A.J. brown. Metcalf the combine freak. 433-40-642 28 printed in a laboratory. From my understanding, in some capacity. These two guys are so interesting to me because I think they're. The majority opinion is that Metcalf will be drafted higher than AJ Brown. I understand why. I also understand that there are NFL franchises that prioritize the things that DK Metcalf has. One of my notes on him is that I think he can change an offense on accident. Even if he's an unrefined route runner. Even if he is a developing superstar monster. Calvin, you know, Calvin Johnson is the ceiling computer. I think he can be more impactful to his fantasy team than he may be to his own fantasy stats. He did not have near the production that A.J. brown had in college. Well, what he did not.

[Mike Wright]

He was also injured last year.

[Andy Holloway]

Well, and that's the thing that you don't have the proof of a season worth of wear and tear, but he's an absolute monster. I mean, last season at Ole Miss, 21.9 a catch. When you look at Matt Caff and Brown, who do you like more? And then maybe break down those guys.

[Jason Moore]

For me, you know, as far as if I'm drafting a wide receiver, it depends on what I'm looking for because they're very different. I feel like AJ Brown is a possession type guy and DK Metcalf is your downfield amazing talent. There's just not many people in the world in the history of humanity, let alone the NFL that are 6, 3, 228 pounds and can run a 4, 3, 3, 40. He is lightning fast at a monstrous size. And the production model is bad because he didn't, you know, but if you look on a per game basis, he's actually has a really, really good production model. I'm always a little bit worried when you're not the number one on your team. But they, they used him. I mean, you can't blame him for how he was used necessarily. He was always on one side pretty much running nines or taking screens. And you know, if, if he goes to a good team, to a team that has a history of developing players, let's say the Steelers are able to grab them. They have a history of doing the best with the wide receivers they grab. Then DK Metcalf's a superstar. I mean, what if you watch his games, you're like, if you watch his highlights, you're like, right, oh, there's a big difference.

[Andy Holloway]

In one case you sound like, I sound like meh.

[Jason Moore]

And in the other case, more like.

[Mike Wright]

The, the lining up on one side of the field is not what I like to hear about. Like it especially just the translation from college to pro of when you're, when you're that number one outside receiver, you, the coverage you receive in the NFL is far different. You need to have a bunch of release moves. You, you need to have some variables to your game. And if college, you.

[Andy Holloway]

So what did he play?

[Mike Wright]

He played a total of 21 games. And if he's playing on one side, there's not going to be a lot of variation that he has picked up some nuances. So it, it has me concerned.

[Andy Holloway]

Do you think the range of outcomes for Metcalf, I mean, do you do you think that there's a world where he's a first round bust? Allah. Kevin White physical size, comp or aside.

[Mike Wright]

From the injury that he had in last year. But it's very much seems like Amari Cooper. Kevin White, where one guy had a bunch of production was a proven wide receiver and the other guy was just just flashed out of the pan at the combine and everyone started drooling over what he could do.

[Andy Holloway]

Any Other thoughts on AJ Brown? 612 26. A lot of production in college. 75 receptions, 85 receptions the last two years was obviously on the field a lot more than Metcalf was. Strong guy, shifty.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah. I mean he's a great player. Yeah, he's a very good wide receiver. I've got him as kind of an anquan Bolden comp. He's strong, he can run every route.

[Andy Holloway]

He reminds me of Nelson Aguilar with 20 pounds on him.

[Mike Wright]

Sure there are two wide receivers high considered high level guys that completely go green in my average rookie model and it's Nikhil Harry and AJ Brown. So I really like both of those guys a lot.

[Andy Holloway]

Let's talk about Kelvin Harmon. North Carolina State 6, 3 2, 21. When you look at him, I see a couple things. I'll weigh in real quick. Had Production ran a 4 6, not great, Bob. And when you look at Harmon, I didn't know what. Maybe you guys, you watched a lot of film on him. Maybe you can help me. I saw a wonderful track record of competitive catches but I didn't know if that was an indictment on his separation and his 46 speed that he had to be in the situation. You know, you watch Hollywood Brown and not a lot of competitive catches because he's 10 yards down the field behind a guy I felt like was this bad quarterback play that put him in that position to where he had to make so many contested catches was this subpar separation of 46 speed. I like the way he competed for the ball. I like his ball skills. I like the tight window catches. I just don't know if he's more than an average fantasy, you know, kind of prospect.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah, I mean I view him as a little bit of a poor man's Nikhil Harry. He's a quality wide receiver good at contested catches, lack separation. But I think the lack of separation. He looked slower to me when he played like, you know, I don't worry about a 4 6. There's plenty of successful wide receivers in the NFL with a 4 6. But it's when you Look a little bit slower and he's a gamer. I like him. I think if he goes to a team with a good quarterback that's willing to force those windows that says, hey, I can get the ball exactly where I need to go, even if he doesn't have huge separation, I think he could be a quality prospect. But you know, I don't see him as a fantasy superstar.

[Andy Holloway]

All right, Hakeem Butler, here's somebody I want to talk about for a while. Hakeem Butler is very fun to watch play football.

[Mike Wright]

Very fun.

[Andy Holloway]

Iowa State product, an absolute freak. Six six, 227. Runs a four, four eight. I would rather draft Akeem Butler myself than I would DK Metcalf. You saw a more production over a longer period of time for Butler. Huge ceiling. To me, the comp that is thrown out there constantly is AJ Green. We don't have enough consistency in route running for Hakeem Butler, I think. But I like the fact that unlike DK Metcalf, who you just brought up, Mike stays on one side of the field. Butler has a history of being able to be moved around and use that size. That's why I love the idea of him being with a quarterback that can extend the play, take advantage of his size and strength. Butler has the highest ceiling of any of I think anybody in this draft because his ceiling, his best plays were Randy Moss esque plays in college.

[Mike Wright]

Yeah, he uses his size appropriately. His body control in the air is like, that's what makes him so fun to watch. Is a man of his size should not be that nimbly, bimbly when he's just running around on the field and making like video game turns. You know how when you're playing Mario, you can somehow jump forward, yet I can slow down at the same time?

[Andy Holloway]

Yes.

[Mike Wright]

Somehow he has that ability. So his 50, 50 ball percentages are great and I think that he can succeed in the NFL. But he is, I'll let you talk about this, Jason, but he, Hakeem Butler is so interesting because I have lots of industry people, industry good friends of mine that I respect that have him all over the map from number one to like out of their top ten.

[Jason Moore]

Well, you'll remember when we started looking up, you know, doing all of our research months ago on the, on the rookies, I started falling in love with Hakeem Butler and saying like, why is this guy not like a consensus top one or two guy? And I was looking around at like really respected long term scouts where all they do is not fantasy but just like NFL scouts, and they're like wide receiver 18. Not like. I mean, nowhere near the top. And I'm just dumb.

[Mike Wright]

You meant player 18?

[Jason Moore]

Yes. I'm dumbfounded because when I watch him, he's incredible. Because, look, there's not a lot of guys that are 6'six who have had success in the NFL. That's because guys who are 6'six don't move like him.

[Andy Holloway]

They can't.

[Jason Moore]

They can't. They can't move their body. There's nothing I've seen in his game. And here's the knock on him. One year of production.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah.

[Jason Moore]

I mean, one year as a massive producer. He was okay two years ago, but he was not the star. So you go, okay. And he broke out a little later.

[Andy Holloway]

In his drops, too.

[Jason Moore]

The drop issues, you know, I think are overblown. If you've ever listened to Matt Harmon talk about it, you know, you can argue you don't get drops if you don't separate because you don't get the targets. And, you know, so to me, I think Hakeem Butler is a great wide receiver. I think wherever he goes, he's going to do well. And the things he can do, NFL teams can capitalize on. They can scheme around his sideline work. I love good on the sidelines.

[Andy Holloway]

He's a monster. We'll make some predictions in a moment about where we think Hakeem Butler might land as well as these other wideouts. Let's talk about Miles Boykin, and then we'll get to Hollywood Brown.

[Jason Moore]

Yes, Hollywood.

[Andy Holloway]

Miles Boykin out of Notre Dame. 6, 4, 2, 20. I was impressed. What's funny to me is when I watch the film on Miles Boykin, I see just a man. I see a man.

[Mike Wright]

I was reminded of the Avengers. He is not a man.

[Andy Holloway]

He's just. He does everything right. He plays the position like a big wide receiver. But you're blown away by the speed that he actually has, his top end speed.

[Jason Moore]

Did you feel like you saw that on film?

[Andy Holloway]

No, not at all.

[Jason Moore]

Okay. That's what I was curious about you.

[Andy Holloway]

That's the thing, is the speed blew me away as a surprise because he kind of just. It's like long strides, the bigger body. Whatever it is, it doesn't show up on film the way that it showed up at the Combine, to me. So you saw the same thing.

[Jason Moore]

I mean, I saw this. I mean, look, I hate to say this, because he is a combine warrior. We're talking his numbers depending on how you formulate your percentiles. He is a true world class. Above DK Metcalf, above these other guys.

[Mike Wright]

94Th percentile. Spark athlete.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah, for some. For spark. He's a Three Sigma athlete. If you use that website to determine your athletic rankings, which is very rare. But I mean, when I watch, I'm just like, okay, I love that he's this big, incredible athlete. I just didn't see it. I didn't, as far as, like, I didn't see him on film look like what he can do at the combine. He didn't impress me as a wide receiver. I'm not saying he's bad or he's a bad wide receiver, but, like, I think he's overhyped because of his combine results. And we've seen that year after year after year, there's always somebody that, oh, man, we thought he was meh. And then it was like his combine comes. He's going to be awesome. You know, Zay Jones style. And I don't know, I thought Mahal's Boykin.

[Andy Holloway]

Oh, come on. I thought he was fundamentally sound. I mean, yeah, I felt like he was great when plays broke down. And I thought he was very fundamental. I think it's a matter of because I've seen him as high as number two or three on people's rankings. And if the NFL, if a GM believes that that's the guy that they need to go get and he has the opportunity, I think it could be very strong.

[Mike Wright]

My first exposure to Miles Boykin was how Jason's favorite thing when he's watching someone else and the player you're not watching jumps out. When I was watching Dexter Williams film, I kept seeing this wide receiver bail this team out over and over and over, making what I thought were spectacular catches. And it was Miles Boykin. So that was my first, first taste of him. And then I really like the player. And then you add in the combine. And to me that the combine is just putting ceiling in because he. He doesn't have a ton of production. But if you look at the team, look at Notre dame, their number one quarterback last year for through. For 2600 yards. I mean, this is not a. This was not a wow you college offense through the air. So it. I can give him, I can cut him a little bit of slack there. I think he is a very solid wide receiver. He'll probably be a day two pick. I don't expect him to go. I would expect him to go, you know, closer into that third round. But I think he can be an excellent wide receiver, too, for a Team, I will admit.

[Jason Moore]

And I do wonder if, because, you know, certain guys you have scouted well before the combine, some guys, they just happen to fall after. He fell after the combine for me. Right. So I wonder if his combine metrics overhyped him. In my mind about what I was going to see. I was very disappointed. Maybe that, maybe that's why.

[Andy Holloway]

All right, can you contain yourself?

[Jason Moore]

Oh, no, no.

[Andy Holloway]

Talk about Marquis Brown out of Oklahoma. Somebody, somebody who did have a prolific quarterback throwing him the football. Unlike Miles Boynton. Yeah, two of them. He went from Baker to Kyler 59166. Now Jay, you're about five nine, right.

[Mike Wright]

And 166.

[Jason Moore]

I wish in my leg.

[Andy Holloway]

In my leg. You got them 166 quads.

[Mike Wright]

Mm.

[Jason Moore]

Look, so Mike was just talking about my, my absolute favorite thing when scouting people. Whenever I'm watching someone else and the guy I'm not watching stands out. Like this year it's been Josh Allen, the defensive edge on defense. But last year is when I fell in love with Marquis Brown because I'm watching Baker and he was just like, who is this just lightning fast dude on the field that nobody can ever catch? And that was, that was Hollywood Brown. And now, you know, I didn't even know if he was an actual prospect. I looked him up last year, saw that he was like a buck 66 and went, oh, he's not an NFL prospect. And they come forward another year and he's still dominating everybody in college. He's clearly a high end prospect. He's one of very few wide receivers going to the NFL draft tonight who could be a first round pick.

[Andy Holloway]

He could be the number one wide receiver. Take.

[Jason Moore]

Absolutely. And when I, I think in today's NFL, Marquis Brown's going to, going to just pop off. I mean he's, he's, to me, he's like a Tyreek Hill style player where you can, you can run, run him on a little mesh route across the field, get him the ball in stride and he's going to take it 80 yards.

[Andy Holloway]

As long as no one hits him.

[Mike Wright]

Yeah. Because the difference between Hollywood and Tyree Kill and Brandon cooks is about £20.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah. At least on, on paper right now that's what it looks like. Tyree kill 510, Brandon cooks 510. I think Desean Jackson, when I see Hollywood Brown more than I do even Hill or Cox.

[Mike Wright]

Not that he can't. Also he is coming off of a.

[Jason Moore]

Liz Frank injury, which to me is a bigger worry.

[Andy Holloway]

It doesn't bother me.

[Mike Wright]

It Bothers me.

[Jason Moore]

It doesn't bother me long term. I mean, we have plenty.

[Andy Holloway]

Doesn't bother. As a fantasy owner, I'm not going to shy away from Hollywood Brown because he suffered a Liz Frank in the Rose Bowl.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah, I mean in Dynasty, sure. I, you know, I agree, but there's such a chance, you know, I think it's 20% chance needing that second surgery with this injury. So maybe he gets off to a slow start. The nice thing is if he is drafted in the first round, he'll have the draft capital, the team is invested and he'll get his shot.

[Andy Holloway]

Quick reminder for everybody, Matt Harmon, author of Reception Perception, which is a featured piece of the ultimate Draft kit at ultimate draft kit.com he's done profiles on a lot of these wide outs. You can see them atthe fantasy footballers.com and you're going to see him break down a lot of the NFL players in the ultimate draft kit. So do not miss that. There's nobody better in the industry at breaking down wide receiver film wide receivers. Independent of some of the variables we brought up on the show like quarterback play opportunity and just looking at the specific talents of the players which can give you a great leg up in these, you know, dynasty rookie drafts. Pick another wide receiver that you want to bring up, each of you guys before we get into the predictions because there are a handful of other names that you could bring up. Debo Samuel, Andy Isabella, Mike. What's the name you'd bring up?

[Mike Wright]

I would bring up Paris Campbell from Ohio State, about 6 foot to 205. And when I was watching him, he was the number one wide receiver for Dwayne Haskins last year, 90 receptions, over a thousand yards, 12 touchdowns. And a lot of that production came in the screen game. And what stood out to me about Paris 1, let me he's fast, right? You're talking 4, 3 speed, which is incredible. But his vision is sensational. Where in these screens he utilizes his blockers.

[Andy Holloway]

20, 20, yes.

[Mike Wright]

Oh, he sees blockers in perfect vision and he plays it so intelligently behind these guys and just knowing the just breaking down the game. Not I'm going to out athlete you right now. He's I'm going to out mind athlete you. I like to work up a mental sweat.

[Andy Holloway]

What an insult that would be too to hear that one coming at you.

[Mike Wright]

Yeah, that's how he worked. So I really like Paris Campbell and he could he to be fair, I think he could actually succeed if he went to Baltimore.

[Jason Moore]

Okay. So I'm going to bring Up Andy Isabella, who I think is a better version of Paris Campbell. Both of these guys are world class fast. We're not talking a fast wide receiver. We're talking about a tyree kill level of speed. These two guys are, you know, close to breaking the record. Type of four, three, you know, same.

[Mike Wright]

Same speed, but one of them's like 20 pounds heavier.

[Jason Moore]

But the thing is, is Andy Isabella worked downfield. He is a good route runner. Both of these guys actually were running backs in high school. So that's why you see this vision of being able to go around people follow blockers is that Paris Campbell was a running back. Andy Isabella was a running back. Andy Isabella actually went to UMass as a running back. They recruited him and had him as a running back. When he was on the practice squad, he sweet just started. They put him out at wide receiver and he was torching guys and they're like, we're going to keep him here. But when I watch him, he, to me, is a much more refined route runner down the field.

[Andy Holloway]

He's college production is ridiculous. His College production is 102 receptions last year, 1700 yards.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah. 13 touchdowns. To me, he is. He's a great prospect. He's someone that will be higher in my dynasty rankings than most.

[Andy Holloway]

All right, guys, let's move on.

[Jason Moore]

I want to play the game.

[Andy Holloway]

All right, it's prediction time. Let's go through quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers, tight end. Some of the names you brought up on Tuesday's show. If you missed the running back breakdown, the tight end breakdown, you didn't miss it because you have. You got a phone and you can click the last episode and you can listen to it and then. Then you'll have heard it and it'll be great. All right, quarterbacks, Kyler Murray lands in Arizona. I'm going with Arizona.

[Mike Wright]

Jason.

[Jason Moore]

Yes.

[Andy Holloway]

Now, Jason, Jason, who you got Kyler Murray going to.

[Jason Moore]

I. I'm going to take Kyler Murray to Arizona.

[Mike Wright]

Oh, you changed it.

[Jason Moore]

I'm changing it.

[Mike Wright]

To break this down for the foot. Glenn Jason had written in Oakland, and we all knew that this was him trying to put out some kind of jinx into the universe.

[Andy Holloway]

He pretty much tried to do what a lot of people think Steve Keim is doing in Arizona. A smokescreen until the last moment.

[Mike Wright]

Yes. I love it. Smoke screening. The number, my guy.

[Jason Moore]

Here's the truth. If you don't know us and our personalities as well, maybe you're not.

[Andy Holloway]

Congratulations.

[Jason Moore]

Yes, congratulations. Maybe you're not listening to the spitballers and realized That I, you know, I really like to win these games and I realized that there's the odds on favorite right now is that he does go to Arizona and if both of you pick Arizona and I pick Oakland, I'm starting in a hole. I don't want to lose this. I ain't eating no salad.

[Andy Holloway]

I was going to say here's what we'll do. We should definitely have a consequence for losing this prediction battle and if we can't settle on something, we'll just put it up for the foot clan on the FF ballers to decide the punishment. Give them a few options.

[Mike Wright]

Okay.

[Andy Holloway]

They don't get to. It's not. Fill in the blank. This is not. Choose your own adventure because one of.

[Mike Wright]

Us is jumping into a cactus.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah. No, that's not going to be on the list. Brooks. All right. Not again. Okay. Giamatti. All right. Dwayne Haskins. I think Washington trades up and takes Dwayne Haskins.

[Mike Wright]

I think Dwayne Haskins is the surprise that Oakland is planning at number four.

[Jason Moore]

Gross. I'm going to say he drops to Miami.

[Andy Holloway]

Alright. Drew Locke. I have going to Denver.

[Jason Moore]

I as well have him going to Denver. I think that that is a lock.

[Andy Holloway]

Oh, man, that is impressive.

[Jason Moore]

Thank you. Boo.

[Andy Holloway]

What do you got?

[Mike Wright]

I know how you guys feel now.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah. All the time.

[Mike Wright]

I got him going to Miami.

[Andy Holloway]

All right, let's move on to running backs. We're going to predict four of the top running backs and where they land. Here's a surprise for you. I got Josh Jacobs to Atlanta. The Falcons. Devonta Freeman not holding up. Tevin Coleman out the door. Atlanta welcomes a dual threat and Josh Jacobs.

[Jason Moore]

I've got a lot of eggs in the Devonta Freeman basket next year. My personal fantasy leagues. Let's hope you're wrong there.

[Mike Wright]

Yeah.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah. Where do you guys have Josh Jacobs?

[Jason Moore]

I have Josh Jacobs going to the Ravens. They despite drafting Mark Ingram have brought in a ton of Mark Ingram or the signing Mark Ingram. They've brought in a ton of running backs. I don't think they're done.

[Mike Wright]

I'm Dave. I think they take. All right. I think Oakland takes Josh Jacobs with their last pick in the first round.

[Andy Holloway]

David Montgomery. Where do you have him going, Mike?

[Mike Wright]

I have him becoming the handcuff and the backup to Minnesota to Dalvin Cook in Minnesota. They are going to need to put a priority on the running back position.

[Andy Holloway]

I got him going to Los Angeles joining the Rams.

[Mike Wright]

Oh, that's going to make a lot of people sad.

[Andy Holloway]

Handcuffed to Tied.

[Jason Moore]

Very sad. Yeah, I've got him going to the Eagles. I think they are going to clean house from the window. Smallwood, Corey Clement, Josh Adams, Reign of Jags and have a Jordan Howard, David Montgomery mix.

[Andy Holloway]

All right. Darrell Henderson.

[Mike Wright]

Oh, I love you, Darrell Henderson.

[Andy Holloway]

I do too, Mike. Let's take him out for froyo after the draft. I do, Mike. You have him going to the Falcons.

[Mike Wright]

I do. I don't think that's perfect. I don't think he is a first round pick. He may not even be a second round pick. But I think he would be an excellent replacement for Tevin Coleman.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah, he is my Tevin Coleman. Comp left, right and center. I've got him going to the Bucks to take out Ronald Jones.

[Andy Holloway]

Milwaukee. Right. The Milwaukee.

[Jason Moore]

The Milwaukee Bucks.

[Andy Holloway]

All right. To play by Giannis.

[Jason Moore]

Yes.

[Andy Holloway]

How do you pronounce freak?

[Jason Moore]

That's how you pronounce that?

[Mike Wright]

That's how I pronounce it.

[Andy Holloway]

Giannis. Oh, I don't know. All right, I have him going. I have Darrell Henderson. A complimentary back in Pittsburgh. I think they need to bring in a little star power.

[Jason Moore]

Really?

[Andy Holloway]

I do not believe. Look, it's the modern NFL. You can't lean on one man, but they have two. Not really. Not really.

[Jason Moore]

Tomlin can lean on one man.

[Andy Holloway]

Well, sure, but it doesn't, you know, when they go down, you need somebody else. They also lost, you know, Antonio Brown. You need more electricity in this offense. Nobody's going to provide that more than Darrell Henderson. Rodney Anderson. Jason, you forced us.

[Jason Moore]

Yes, I did.

[Andy Holloway]

Forced us. To predict this one for no good reason.

[Jason Moore]

No, I'll tell you the reason. The reason I forced it is because I am speaking it into the universe. Rodney Anderson is going to go to the Chiefs and be with Andy Reed who will maximize his potential and he will be a superstar. Otherwise he could flame out.

[Mike Wright]

I am going with undrafted. Or the Texas.

[Jason Moore]

You can't go or which one you can take Undrafted.

[Andy Holloway]

He won't be undrafted.

[Jason Moore]

But you can't take two places.

[Andy Holloway]

I'm take the Texans.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah.

[Mike Wright]

I mean, fine. I'll go with undrafted.

[Andy Holloway]

All right, do it. You're switching it up. All right, let's move on to the wide receivers. Just talked about them on the show. We'll predict the homes. Five of them. Let's start with Nikhil. Harry. Looks like Jason and I haven't gone to the same place. Jason.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah. I think Seattle, they've got that extra pick in the first round late. They our deal with Doug Baldwin. It makes a lot of sense to me.

[Mike Wright]

I'm going with Arizona.

[Andy Holloway]

Ooh, wet in the second round.

[Mike Wright]

Yep.

[Andy Holloway]

First pick of the second round.

[Mike Wright]

First pick of the second round. Cliff Kingsbury wants to restock the offense.

[Jason Moore]

That'd be so interesting with. Because Christian Kirk and Akil Harry grew up in Arizona.

[Andy Holloway]

They did.

[Jason Moore]

Living in Arizona their whole lives.

[Andy Holloway]

They're a perfect complement to each other, too. DK Met. Did I say I have him going to Arizona?

[Mike Wright]

See how you said place.

[Andy Holloway]

All right. DK Metcalf. I have him actually going to the Bengals. What do you think?

[Mike Wright]

It makes sense. Yeah, but they should probably draft a quarterback.

[Jason Moore]

Oh, stop it. Look, we said it. The Ravens are going to take one of these guys, and I think that they are going to unfortunately take DK Metcalf.

[Mike Wright]

And I've got Oakland taking him. I've got an Oakland offense explosion in the first round.

[Andy Holloway]

I think what's funny is, you know, you make these predictions and we say, unfortunately, if DK Metcalf went. If DK Metcalf went to Baltimore, it's so good for Baltimore.

[Jason Moore]

I agree completely.

[Andy Holloway]

It's just so. So if you're a Baltimore fan out there and you're hearing this, it's great for you.

[Jason Moore]

Yes.

[Andy Holloway]

It's great for Lamar Jackson.

[Jason Moore]

Yes.

[Andy Holloway]

We're not just talking about that.

[Jason Moore]

It's just not great for DK Metcalf as compared to going to other places.

[Andy Holloway]

All right, A.J. brown. I dropped him in Baltimore with the Ravens.

[Jason Moore]

I've got him with the Bills who are trying to stock up for Josh Allen.

[Mike Wright]

I got him going to the Colts.

[Jason Moore]

Oh.

[Andy Holloway]

Any of these guys landing in Indianapolis to compliment Hilton?

[Mike Wright]

Well, it'll be A.J. brown Dream Solution. I plan to win this bet.

[Jason Moore]

It will be Devin Funches, Hollywood Brown.

[Andy Holloway]

You got that speed now, Hollywood. Head off to Oakland. All right, Head off to Oakland, Hollywood.

[Jason Moore]

Hollywood's coming right here to Arizona with Kyler Murray. I had.

[Andy Holloway]

So here's one man that's losing this bet. There's one man speaking this loss into existence.

[Jason Moore]

I had both of these. I had the Hollywood Kyler Murray stack from college being drafted by Oakland. But I'm pivoting.

[Andy Holloway]

You're shifting.

[Jason Moore]

The stack is going to be drafted by Arizona.

[Andy Holloway]

All right, Mike, where do you got him?

[Mike Wright]

I got Hollywood going to New England.

[Andy Holloway]

That would be exciting. That would be fun. Year one, Hakeem Butler. I've got him going to New England. There's that wide receiver. They need that Randy Moss esque downfield target.

[Jason Moore]

As do I. They've been trying to replace him for years. Chris Hogan is No. Hakeem Butler.

[Andy Holloway]

Well, you lose the big goal line presence of Rob Gronkowski. Butler could step in there and be a big presence on the goal line. Mike, you got him going.

[Mike Wright]

I like when you guys both have the same team because then when I get it right, I get points on both of you. I've got him going to the Chiefs.

[Andy Holloway]

All that matters, which is what I said was the. Well, I actually said his perfect match was with Patrick Mahomes. Yeah.

[Jason Moore]

Now all that matters is that we don't lose the bet. Right. There's two winners.

[Andy Holloway]

There are two winners and one super big loser.

[Jason Moore]

All right, tight end.

[Andy Holloway]

Tight end.

[Mike Wright]

No, offhand, I talked about at the beginning of the show. I'm going with the Titans.

[Andy Holloway]

Packers.

[Jason Moore]

We went Packers.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah, we both got them on the Packers. And then we all have a different home for TJ Hawkinson. I had the Jags. I had the Jags and I shifted. I went Lions.

[Mike Wright]

I like that a lot. Lions. And I got the Seahawks. They want to run the ball.

[Jason Moore]

I've got the Jaguars as well. They want to run the ball and give another outlet for their new quarterback.

[Andy Holloway]

Hawkins is going to go high in this draft.

[Mike Wright]

Yes, he will.

[Jason Moore]

Number seven to the Jaguars.

[Andy Holloway]

Pristine deal of the day. All right, today's Pristine deal of the day. Bringing it to your [e-mail] A Cortland Sutton signed Denver Broncos jersey.

Alright, Foot Clan. Remember, here's the good news, alright. The number of collisions involving a train at a railway crossing is down 83% from its peak in the 1970s. But here is the bad news. And this is what the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration wants to keep you aware of. There are still more than 2,000 incidents a year. You got to be smart. Remember, stop. Because trains can't.
