In short

Fantasy Footballers podcast (Aug 13) does a head-to-head mock draft (12-team, full PPR, 1QB, 2RB, 2WR, 1TE, 1 flex, 4 bench) plus “Leader of the Pack” and quick NFL news/waiver implications.

Guests/hosts

Hosts are Andy Holloway, Jason Moore, and Mike Wright (Mike is absent due to illness; “cardboard bear” Jay Grizz sits in). No other guests appear.

Guest backgrounds

Not applicable beyond the hosts’ roles as fantasy analysts/drafters; they reference their scouting/models and beat-reporter sources.

Key claims

  • “Leader of the Pack” (Browns WR room): Denzel Boston vs. Casey Concepcion vs. Isaiah Bond; they lean Boston as the most confident fantasy contributor, though they debate Concepcion’s talent/ceiling and Boston’s efficiency/role.
  • Jordan Tyson hamstring risk increases (down arrow in their UDK risk rating).
  • Darren Waller signing gives a low-expectation but usable dynasty streaming option (6 TDs last year).
  • Puka Nakua and Josh Jacobs suspension chatter could affect ADP; they’d still draft Puka/Chase-tier players over JSN/Amon-Ra if drafts are today, and Jacobs is likely unlikely to be suspended.

Notable examples

  • Mock draft picks include Christian McCaffrey (1st), Amon-Ra St. Brown, James Cook, Justin Jefferson, Josh Allen, Tyler Warren, Drake London, Garrett Wilson, Devontae Adams, George Kittle, and Caleb Williams (stacking).

0:00Jason Moore:If you're an NFL fan, ESPN is where you need to be this season. It's the biggest lineup they've ever put together. Monday Night Football, every week, every game on NFL Network. Now also available with an ESPN Unlimited plan. And for the first time ever, Super Bowl 61. Marquee matchups, MVP quarterbacks, international games, the whole season start to finish. Football's on ESPN. This episode is brought to you by State Farm. Every football fan is different. Some won't wash their lucky mustard-stained jersey until the season's over. Some insist they can't sit down on third downs, and some pick their favorite team because, I don't know, just like football fandom, nobody's life is exactly the same, and that's why State Farm gets to know you, not as a policy number but as an actual person, so they can help personalize a coverage plan that's just for you.

0:59Jason Moore:Whether it's game day or just another Tuesday, State Farm has you covered.

1:06Jason Moore:Unless one has an affinity for looking ridiculously foolish, it is wise not to stumble aimlessly into a fantasy football draft. The Ultimate Draft Kit from the Fantasy Footballers contains all the information you need to avoid the jeers of your enemies and to snuff out any glint of hope in their souls. Imagine the gasps those trouser-wearing turnips will emit as you make yet another triumphant draft selection. Imagine their tears forming a formidable puddle as you assemble an unstoppable force. The ultimate draft kit comes bursting at the seams with fantasy goodness. When you enter the draft room, you'll feel as if you were a monstrous beast let loose in a chicken coop.

1:53Jason Moore:Head over to ultimatedraftkit.com today.

2:04Jason Moore:Welcome to the Fantasy Footballers Podcast with your hosts, Andy Holloway, Jason Moore, and Mike Wright. All right.

2:22Welcome in.

2:34Thursday, August 13th. Maybe we'll have some good preseason football today. Jason Morris here. I'm Andy Holloway, Jay Grizz in the house. I think we will.

2:47Jason Moore:I think we will. This year it seems like a lot of teams are going to be playing their starters this week. Deshaun Watson getting that first go, which is why Mike is not here. He is ill. Is that why he got sick? Yeah, he heard that news and just he hasn't been able to stop vomiting. Maybe we were tired of all that trash talk yesterday on the show. Maybe we slipped a little something into his lunch. Yeah. Yeah. Maybe Jay Grizz wanted the attention. Somebody wanted the attention. That's the cardboard bear sitting in for Mike, Jay Grizz. So we have a head-to-head mock draft today. We're going to kick the Mayhem mock draft back a week.

3:29I'm sorry for those that were looking forward to it, but we'll do a head-to-head mock draft. Jason V. myself.

3:37Jason Moore:Yeah, I can tell you I wasn't one of those looking forward to it. The Mayhem? Well, because the mayhem is fun for everyone else except for me and Mike. I agree. Because we have to deal with the mayhem. But we'll deal with that next week. Yeah, we got a lot going on. We got a segment today, Leader of the Pack, we'll get into. We do have the UDK for Life giveaway going on right now, basically. The gist is this. Pick up the Ultimate Draft Kit before Monday, August 24th. On Monday, August 24th, we'll be doing a live stream in the afternoon answering tons of fantasy questions for your draft. and at the end of that we'll give away a UDK for life and a signed Jamar Chase jersey.

4:11Jason Moore:And for clarity, because I saw people asking, if you had earlier this offseason, if you got the UDK, you're automatically entered. You don't have to do it like just since this window has opened. If you're an Ultimate Foot Clan member that comes with the UDK, you're already in there. So Monday we will be pulling, Monday the 24th, we'll pull the winner for the UDK for life. Yeah, and so if you're going to get it to get ready for your draft, do it now, UltimateDraftKit.com. Let's jump in, Jay.

4:42leader of the pack presented by pet smart juicer's alley was rocking out like quite a bit to that drop right there i saw some headbanging uh last week on leader of the pack we talked through the packers wide receiver room situation we're gonna do our best to crown the leader of a of the pack basically who's gonna win the fantasy relevant role on a certain team with a depth chart and a situation that's a little bit murky this week is a challenge this week you you talked about him to sean watson shaddour sanders and whom else it's the browns wide receiver room which there's a lot of them yeah cedric tillman anybody oh man that dude's getting cut yeah for sure he's on that bubble i mean this this wide receiver room has been uninspiring for years.

5:31They did add two very talented rookie wideouts, Denzel Boston, Casey Concepcion, who is a favorite of many here in the studio. And you still have Jerry Judy as a piece of that offense. We know Harold Fannin is going to be a high percentage target share type of guy. But can we find value in the Browns wide receiver room? We've talked about Miami, right? where it's hard to say that that is even a pack to have a leader of. This is one where you do have talent.

6:04Jason Moore:Yes, a lot of talent. The issue for both of these teams is you don't expect great offensive play. You don't necessarily expect to have a ton of passing volume at the end of the year, like how many total team yards, whoever the quarterback is, whether it's Shadour, whether it's Deshaun Watson, or for Malik Willis in that case. Let's be honest, it's going to be multiples. Yes. Both situations, you're like, okay, you're hoping for 3 ,300 yards on a great, like, let's say Shador has a breakout season, turns into a real star, you know, 3 ,600 yards. I mean, I think Todd Monkin brings a ceiling to the passing game a little bit.

6:44I think they are a team with the defense taking a step backwards without Myles Garrett. Could be in a situation where these games are not, like the games they won last year. what was it almost all one score games that they were in even the ones they lost they these games are 19 to 14 and stuff like that there's a chance you throw the ball a little bit more than the expectation but who comes out on top i mean right now the way that the the way that i'm reading and i we have not talked about no so i don't know if you're going to come out on the same side as me the player i feel the most confident contributing to this offense right now is denzel boston I like the talent of Casey Concepcion but the way that the like I think Denzel Boston will be a starter from day one Concepcion should be as well but my situation now is like I am leaning towards the big bodied receiver on the outside that's going to have the opportunity what were these both Concepcion was a late first Boston was a second round pick but I mean 39th overall it's not a huge gap

7:44Jason Moore:these were two really high draft picks In my scouting, I had Concepcion as a first-round talent, and I had Boston as a second-round talent. I like Boston. They were both above a 75 score in my Felix model. Concepcion was in the 80s, which is pretty darn good. I think the difference that you're saying between a team like Miami and here is there is talent. This is now. They've gone from last year. Their talent was Jerry Judy, so they had none. Right. Who is part of this pack? And honestly, we need to throw another name out, and that's Isaiah Bond, who's also been making noise. He was supposed to be a highly drafted wide receiver last year, had some off-the-field issues, went to the Browns, and now this offseason has been making noise.

8:30Jason Moore:So between Concepcion, Boston, Jerry Judy, Isaiah Bond, and Fannin, this is a very talented skill position group. I still lean on the Concepcion side. I think that he is the most talented player. Obviously, the capital was there. He's dealt with a couple small injuries through camp. I don't blame you. If you want to take the Boston side. Let me tell you the thought process. Can I guess it? Go ahead. Boston is the outside player. He was a touchdown mega threat in college. So when you look at the fantasy upside versus Concepcion, maybe falls into a slot role and has lower value fantasy production.

9:17Pretty much. I would say that if you think the offense is not going to be a high-volume offense, you want the most effective, efficient plays, Boston will have the higher yards per reception. And just to add to the second point about the slot receiver thing, I mean, Concepcion is a freak. He's twitchy. He will be competing for some of the short area targets that Fannin, I think, will dominate. I think that's the last piece of the puzzle. But I think those are the two guys at the top of the pecking order. And if you believe, like, the camp for Boston matters a lot to me. The camp for Concepcion matters a little bit less.

9:52Jason Moore:Yeah, that's fair. And so I like the way it's going in camp. I think the underdog would be Isaiah Bond. Yeah. But my God. Jerry Judy is not a part of this. No, and how do you possibly – like Bond has made headlines before. He made them last year in the offseason program. It was on my dynasty team. It didn't come to fruition when there wasn't a Boston or Concepcion or even Fanning getting snaps. It's just hard for me to see a path to that upside. The only players in the wide receiver room to take a shot on are the two wide receivers. and I don't blame you if you wanted to. Honestly, I was in a draft, in a mock draft, where I did take Denzel Boston over Concepcion.

10:33Jason Moore:They are neck and neck to me, and certainly the beat reporters are talking about Denzel Boston being just really dominating, and that's what you need. You need a rookie who surprises. You need a rookie who is like – Yeah, touchdown, deep plays. Yes, who is just an awesome piece. And I do think that the majority of the games this year will be Shadour Sanders. That is kind of the more future play. I don't think this team has any wisdom in playing Deshaun Watson. He's not good enough to put them over the top, and he's definitely not their future. So if Shadour plays most of the games, he's going to focus on the rookies.

11:11Jason Moore:You look at, like, Jerry Judy last year once Shadour came in was on a 17-game pace of 500 yards. These are both great players to take at the very end of your draft. We're doing a mock draft today. you know kyle's talked about you know this is low risk high reward highly talented players conception is that twitchiness elite electric playmaker in space dangerous with the ball in his hands and then boston's going to be the guy that high points it scores longer touchdowns goal line threat reliable hands the the drops with conception have been a they've been an offseason problem they were a collegiate problem it's a problem you can overcome yeah i mean it's it's not a very predictive stat for fantasy points per game um but it is one of the knocks on him you know i i think i've come around while i do prefer the talent of conception what's happening for this team the efficiency i'm going to say that the leader of the pack here is boston we're going boston however i don't think either is a good pick oh man you know i i we just got some more news well we're about to talk news so we get to talk about that but that was leader of the pack presented by pet smart visit your local pet smart store or go to pet smart.com today pet smart anything for pets news and notes from around the league well this this sucks guys jordan tyson left practice early okay all right whatever you know a lot of people leave practice early was Was it a groin, Jay?

12:42Was it a toe? Oh, he hurt his shoulder. Oh, no. No, it was the worst possible thing that you could have heard. It's the hamstring.

12:52Jason Moore:That's been a huge. Players have hamstring issues, ho-hum. But he had a hamstring issue that was potentially hurting his draft stock, couldn't participate in a lot of off-season stuff. He is the ham king. He dealt with it last year. he then started this offseason program not participating because of the hamstring took the time you know you got to take the time and he took it and now for a hamstring to be a problem it is that's that's so you don't know this andy negative i okay you don't know this so we have a board where that you have no hamstrings oh that okay you do know but you want to know something else you are unaware of uh we have a board in our shared office me you and mike where we write names and potential names for my guys yeah the my guys season is here and and the rule around the office is if the name is up it's by your name nobody else can claim that player but it's it's a handful of names each i finalists i i have two locked and i erased a couple this morning and i'm consolidating i'm getting very close and this morning if when we finish the show you can go walk in there and you could see one i've got four total names on there and one of them is jordan tyson oh so because i erased it yesterday wrote him on there this is that why no i didn't even know you had him oh he was on my list and i erased him yesterday this is a player who is truly an elite wide receiver i'm i'm all in on believing in the talent i don't have our number one so anything negative we say he was our number one jason and i's number one scouted wide receiver yes right and Mike as well.

14:30Jason Moore:Yes, all three of us ahead of Carnell Tate. Nick Underhill, one of my favorite beat reporters, covers the Saints. I was told this isn't super serious, but obviously less than ideal. That's exactly how I feel about it. I can tell you who's not going to be a my guy. I mean, with the reoccurring hamstring. You want to have your my guy not play the first four weeks because week one he pulls something? Yeah, I promise you in the UDK, you will see an arrow appear next to Jordan Tyson's name later today, and it will be a down arrow because his risk rating is going to go up. Having a re-aggravation of such a longstanding issue says, hey, I'm still willing to draft him, but you've got to know that there is a higher risk profile here.

15:11Jason Moore:That sucks, man. It's not great, so we're going to monitor that. The Panthers, they signed. Al, I'm giving you a second here. The Panthers signed tight end Darren Waller. Oh, ho, ho. goo goo ga joob the Panthers

15:32one year contract he's still just 33 years old caught 6 touchdowns last year looked good doing it so this is an upgrade for Bryce Young right? you didn't sound like you agreed

15:49Jason Moore:so a couple of things here Jatavian Sanders I really like Darren Waller is better Darren Waller was actually good last year in the games he played, which is a little surprising for his age. I will say that in a dynasty league, he's probably on your waivers and he should be picked up. I don't expect big things here, but when you're streaming off of your bench in a dynasty league, it's nice to have an option in a certain matchup. So go peek at your waivers and make sure he is out there. I mean, what did he have? Six touchdowns. Six touchdowns last year in, like, minimal games. Yeah, where Tua threw for 3 ,200 yards.

16:28Ian Rappaport reporting that Rashi Rice is not expected to be suspended for violating his probation.

16:34Jason Moore:That's good news, especially coming out right after the fact that it's TBD on Josh Jacobs and Puka Nakua that they still are being investigated for theirs. I think the people out there need to know what you would do if your draft was tomorrow with Puka Nakua and Josh Jacobs? Because we're getting to the point where the conversation is no longer, well, I'll pay attention a month from now. It's now like you might draft today. You might draft next week. You might. So if that's in the back of your mind, like Puka is my number one wide receiver. Right. And I would imagine right now, would you draft Puka over Jamar Chase today?

17:11Jason Moore:No, I wouldn't. But how far down? Would you move your number one wide receiver in Puka? Would you say, because of potential risk for a suspension, I am willing to take those next two guys. Would you take JSN or Amon Ra over Puka if your draft was today? No. I don't think I would either. What's funny is I'm looking at my UDK numbers, and the risk rating is going to come up for Puka because of this, and did go up. I took a game away from Puka, and he's still statistically higher than Chase for me. He is really. Him and Chase, to me, are a tier above. I don't mind if you put either JSN or JSN and Amon Ra in that tier.

17:53I'm going to take two games away. That puts him at three for me. That means that Chase and JSN would be picked for me.

18:00Jason Moore:You would pick. I know. You said JSN and Amon Ra, but right in between those. Yeah, okay. I would take JSN right today. If we get word that Puka is not going to get suspended, he goes right back to number one. And Jacobs, let me ask you a couple of questions here. By the way, Puka and Jacobs, with the suspensions, that could happen, probably not, both have groin injuries. Hmm. Maybe they're just faking it. Get some sympathy from the NFL. Like, hey, God, I might miss games on my own. You don't need to suspend me. Oh, let's teach them the butterflies to stretch. Yeah, seriously. So right now, Josh Jacobs is going behind Henry and Love and ahead of Kyron Williams and Brees Hall.

18:42Jason Moore:Would you still draft Jacobs ahead of Kyron and ahead of Brees Hall? Or would you flip there? I might take Brees you know how high I might take Brees ahead of him today and I might take Kyron ahead of him today just so you feel like I picked Kyron once yay um yeah for the record as of this moment I do not believe that either will be suspended it's the conversations are ongoing and it's something we need to be aware of but I just don't like it in the back of my mind yeah I'd put it at unlikely Emeka Abuka left yesterday's practice with the toe injury considered minor that was the update i think they had the abuka news yesterday but not the severity or the type of injury yeah they said it was a minor toe injury so i have to imagine it's the pinky oh yeah i was going there i was going there or the what do you even call the one next to the pinky that one's the really ring finger the ring toe the ring well the ship hmm yeah the ring toe i so that's the ring toe is that i just feel like that one's really i feel like that one could go and no one would notice.

19:43Like if you did the Thanos snap and everybody lost that toe, life goes on perfectly normal. You need your ring toe? No, absolutely not. That's just a, that one's on the way out. It's a luxury toe. It's a luxury toe. For sure.

19:58Jason Moore:That's what they call it. That is it. Or as you'd say, a luxury finger. Dave Canales said Chuba Hubbard is week to week with a hamstring injury. Oh no, Jonathan Brooks is going to skyrocket. He's already, he's already Let me go and look at my rankings. Jonathan Brooks has already overtaken Chuba in most drafts that I've seen, which I understand the excitement of the upside, but he is clearly currently the backup, and it's tough for me to imagine. I don't know about that, man. You think he starts the season ahead of Chuba? I think so. Okay. If that's the case, then... Chuba is just, he is the, he is the remandre to the Travion.

20:43He is the, like, tried and true thumper, but he doesn't have the skill set. We saw this last year with Rico already. If a player comes out and shows explosiveness in this offense, you're never going to see that from Chuba. Ever. So, if Rico can win the job, JB can win the job. And I'll say this, I've lowered the risk rating for JB a little bit. Yeah, I mean, he's healthy right now. He is going to play football in preseason week one on Saturday. I will be holding my breath during that game. Yeah, that could move the ADP even higher if he looks good. Actually, it will. I mean, if he has an explosive play, that's going to skyrocket with the hamstring injury.

21:23So we'll take a break. We've got a mock draft coming up. We'll talk to you in a second. And, man, Jason, you're going to draft at 10. I'm at 5. Head-to-head mock, randomly decided.

21:34Jason Moore:We had a question yesterday of where's the worst spot in the draft, and I basically said 10. And then the team here gave you that spot. All right, we'll be right back.

21:47All right, Foot Clan, whether you are on the go or at home, T-Mobile, well, they're built to keep you connected wherever you're scouting your fantasy team. And that on-the-go part, that is important. With America's Best Network, you'll be connected to the latest news and player projections so when you're on the clock, you can draft a winning team. I can think of so many situations where that element of being connected while you're on the go is fundamental to fantasy football success. I'm in the midst of multiple leagues right now where I am responding to trade offers. We are massaging the trade offer.

22:17We want to make sure that I'm the one that gets the player, not another player manager in our league. So trade offers when you're on the go, all the news that's breaking so you don't make a mistake. And my favorite thing, maybe I'll mention it. Look, you're sitting and you have a quiet moment somewhere out and about you want to jump in the udk we got the player profiles you can watch all of those in there with t-mobile you can jump in on the player projections and our stat projections and all the 130 000 words of content again t-mobile making that easy to do every bit of news things are changing all the time new player contracts all that good stuff so from off season to game day every play is better with t-mobile what you got to do is visit t-mobile.com slash network fastest is based on analysis by Ookla of Speed Test Intelligence Data of National Speed Score results for the second half of 2025.

If it becomes the Indiana Bears I Oh brother That feels disgusting I don't think so but that was making all the rounds yesterday and I know every Bears fan is probably panicking. If it became the Indiana Cardinals no problem Whatever. Take them Yeah they're yours Dude you should be able to trade teams Even when oh that'd be great Even when like the Bears weren't good for a long stretch They're still like They're the Chicago Bears.

24:51They're the Chicago Bears. They're not changing. This is some sort of blustery thing. We'll figure it out. Trying to get more out of Chicago. Oh, yeah, and then when we talk about Indy, it would be two different teams.

25:04Jason Moore:Oh, no, don't do that. Indiana, Indianapolis. I can't see it happening, but there's a sound clip for you. The Fantasy Footballers Mock Draft.

25:21All right, like I said, the Mayhem draft kicked back to next week. Today we're doing a 12-team full PPR, one quarterback, two running back, two wide receiver, one tight end, one flex, four bench spots. I have been randomly assigned the five spot in the draft. Jason is at the 10 spot, and we have our writers and producers and staff drafting live. So we will kick it off right here, right now. And I'm glad that the way this draft started, push didn't come to shove on the Puka question. you just asked yeah jameer gibbs bjohn robinson go one and two even in the full ppr jamar chase and puka nakua go next i'm on the clock at 105 i still have a decision to make here we had our top 10 running back show yesterday if you didn't listen you can go back and listen to that episode counting it down talked a lot about christian mcafree and here he is i mean a full ppr remember what you're getting with christian mcafree yeah you're getting a receiver and a running back in

26:17Jason Moore:one jsn sitting here it's gonna say full ppr for jsn not too bad either and i'm on raw obviously but i'm gonna i'm gonna pull the trigger here it's rare i've had an opportunity in any mock i will take the christian mccaffrey opportunity here at 105 and a full ppr i think i like the pass catchers the ride receivers coming around in round two more than i do the running backs with pass catching potential and i think somebody like chase brown who will catch a lot of passes will probably be gone. So I'll go CMC here to start off our 12-team PPR mock draft. Amon Ross St. Brown goes next. Great pick.

26:53Jonathan Taylor, JSN going at 108 in a full PPR is a little interesting. CeeDee Lamb going next. And Jason, you're at that beautiful spot where by ADP, just so yesterday when we were asked what is the worst spot to draft, Jason gave a real number. Yeah, 10. I didn't. I said it's wherever you're tempted to draft Justin Jefferson yeah 10 which that's that's by ADP Jefferson is the next name to come off the board so I think I agree with you on 10 tell me the thought process here you've got HN catching a lot of passes I know what I'm going

27:26Jason Moore:to do here um oh that's good I was I was pretty sad to see CeeDee Lamb get taken by cash money right ahead of me most of the time I think James Cook goes ahead or or people might even be putting Justin Jefferson there. In a full PPR, I would very much prefer to have CeeDee Lamb. I think he's the last of a tier one of wide receivers. I'm going to end up high T here. I'm very confident of that. This is the first time I've been able to draft James Cook. Put a little respect on his name. He is an awesome top tier running back for a great team who is projected to score 10 plus touchdowns and I think he'll be more involved in the passing game this year than he has been.

28:10Did you happen to see his comments to our good friend of the show Matt Harmon yesterday? I did not. Harmon basically said are we going to see you involved more in the passing game? That's an area of your game that can grow and he basically said the equivalent of almost nothing and it was to be continued stay tuned. Like insinuating things have been built out for him more in the passing game is what you said yesterday i love that pick there i love it because i think you're going to come back around to a better choice uh or more flexibility maybe with your choice and in the second round jefferson goes at 111 i mean should be a great ppr pick should be he's a great wide receiver devon a chan and ashton jenty these three running Two great pass catchers, and then Chase Brown next.

29:02Jason Moore:Yes, A-Chan, Jinty, Chase Brown. I wanted one of those guys from the fact that it was a full PPR. That's just fantastic. I'm left now with a choice between do I get my first wide receiver, who would be either Drake London or A.J. Brown. And for me, I would rather have A.J. Brown than Drake London quarterback play changes. We talked about how Justin Jefferson and Drake London, great wide receivers. Team environment and quarterback play could allow them to disappoint for this early in the draft. I'm going to take a guy that I keep banging the drum for. I know that all the troll comments from McDaniel coming out saying, like, oh, we're going to use all three backs.

29:43Jason Moore:I believe in Omari and Hampton. I think he will be a three-down back and be very involved in catching the ball the way that A-Chan was for McDaniel last year. And I want a piece of that off it. So I'm going to start high T. James Cook, Omari and Hampton and in a full PPR I'm going to have to build my wide receivers later in the draft I think this has been a really interesting draft already with names that like I don't think in any mock I've had CMC, you've had Cook or Hampton, maybe you have but Cook and Hampton, I don't blame you there my worry about the pass catching is Keaton Mitchell's involvement but it's like that could be design plays for Keaton Mitchell and not so much natural drop you know the check downs I think Keaton will be used in the slot and used in motion and used more as a gadget player.

30:27Well, I think the streak of players we haven't had in mocks that are going to end up on our team may continue here. We see Bowers, Barkley, McBride after your Hampton pick, and then Ken Bone Walker, who might have been a little bit tantalizing and tempting there for me. At running back at this juncture, you have, you know, Jeremiah Love's a pass-catching talent. It's interesting here. Henry and Jacobs, we'll see. We've talked about Jacobs. I'm going to take Drake London. I'm going to take Drake London this late. Yeah, he's fallen. At 2.08 in a full PPR, you can say it's a bad environment, but Jefferson in a bad environment has failed.

31:06London in a bad environment has not failed yet. So at least...

31:10Jason Moore:Jefferson was a first-round pick at the 1.11. You're at the mid to back of the second. Yeah, so I'll take it, and it looks like it started a run of wideouts because London goes to me. then it's A.J. Brown Pickens Nico and Olave Olave is an interesting name to bring up just if like if we do face the hamstring hamstrung situation we know what Olave can do with the high target share Jeremiah Love the first pick of the third round Neighbors could have been an interesting thought I would have loved him to slip through but he didn't Breesaw Derek Henry puts me back on the clock CMC in London is the start.

31:53I will say right now the number one wide receivers, or the two names, I think, that I'm interested in. Garrett Wilson, always a PPR monster. Ladd McConkie, interesting as well. Jacobs is there, Kyron, Bucky, Javante, A.J. N. Jr., Travo. Looking to quarterbacks, it's where you start to think a little bit. I mean, middle of the third, Josh Allen. Do I like what that does to my team more than Garrett Wilson?

32:23Jason Moore:Do you think about Colson Loveland here in a full PPR third round? I should, but I'm not. Okay. So I'm going to take Josh Allen. I'm going to make the pick. I'm looking up and down the wide receiver room in a full PPR. There's a ton of names that I know are coming back to me. I think it's going to be a difference maker for my team versus looking quarterback in the fourth or fifth. So I'm going to pull the trigger on the automatic and take Josh Allen. Hero quarterback, hero running back. Drake London is my wide receiver one. I feel good. Higgins, Rice, Javante, Kyron, Jason, you are on the clock.

32:59You've got two running backs. You are high T so far.

33:01Jason Moore:I am high T. You want to go like super high T and pick up Josh Jacobs right here, still sitting there in 310? I mean, at 310, it's not a bad value, but I don't necessarily think that that's the way to go when there are other good wide receivers on my team and my team needs them. I'm sitting here looking at Tedderola McMillan, who I love, Garrett Wilson, who I love, Devontae Smith, who I love. They're all good options at wide receiver. But in a full PPR, my rankings have Garrett Wilson in the lead there. I think that he's going to do what he has always done, which is consume all of the targets.

33:38Jason Moore:and uh i can't stop finding him as a value because he is a guy that i can easily see finishing as a back-end wide receiver one who's almost always taken you know after discount after 15 yeah after 15 wide receivers or so i'm not sure which what number wide receiver he was just here kyle you can add it up for me um but it's he's certainly not in the top 12 14 14 before him 13 before him he was 14 off the board I think that is a great pick it was the one name I was thinking about versus Josh Allen and you and I both have him ranked above ADP I love it Devante Smith Tett McMillan Abuka going next Jacobs finally goes off the board at 402 okay that's great I mean going behind Javante is interesting when you have Javante's past catching prowess in a PPR versus Jacobs, you know, he's going to be 50 plus catches.

34:35That's, that's a good value. Jason, you're back on the clock. A little bit of a head shake. I'm not sure.

34:40Jason Moore:No, I'm just looking at everybody. There's a lot of different options. I can take my pick of the, of the second year tight ends, Tyler Warren and Colson Loveland, um, full PPR. They could end up dominating, taking that, you know, jump into tier one. Uh, but I'm going to take a wide receiver that I know early in the offseason I think we maybe as a show definitely myself Mike I think even you were a little lower a little bit more concerned on and as time has gone on he's just he's so good he's so good and I know you're squinting because you don't want me to take him you don't want me to take lad right yeah yeah and I want to take lad and then I just now I'm seeing that would put Ladd and Hampton.

35:25Jason Moore:I love. Oh yeah. I, I, he won't make it to me now that this has been discussed, but that's okay. That's going to tie break it for me. I'm not going to take Ladd. I am going to take Tyler Warren ahead of Colson Loveland and a full PPR. I'm confident that Warren is above 140 targets this year. Now you took him over Loveland. Correct. Yeah. I think Loveland might have the ceiling, but in a full PPR, I am extremely I'm extremely confident that the number one target for that team, like the number one target for the Bears, it very well might be Loveland. But it could also be Luther Burden, which that's what the news recently has been, that he's been the first target.

36:04Jason Moore:It could also be Rome, who, when the three of them were on the field together, was the leading target. I don't see Alec Pierce being the leading target. I don't see Josh Downs being better than Warren. Warren is going to be the engine in the receiving room. All right, we'll catch you up a little bit here. uh zay flat or lad mcconkey does go next not surprising after that discussion uh that was the the pie in the sky dream when i took josh allen is that lad comes back to me i love him zay flowers jaylen waddle loveland go net goes next i end up with luther burden at 408 that's what i pulled the trigger on him i love that value i think that's great um that is the what is he the wide receiver 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 i'm getting luther burden at wide receiver 21 value and a PPR.

36:50You just talked about the offense. I feel fine about that.

36:53Jason Moore:Sure. That means Loveland and Burden are gone back to back. Bucky, Scat, Jameson, and Lamar off the board to finish the fourth round. Carnell Tate at 501. Love that pick. Judkins, Swift, Tootin off the board. Brings it back to me. Running backs have thinned, especially when you look at PPR upside. Trevo is interesting here. I need another running back. Monty, he can catch the football. He is also projected to score double-digit touchdowns or one of the better odd running backs to do it. A-chan Jr. in New Orleans. Jadarian Price also on the board. At wide receiver. You're sitting right now with London and Luther Burden, two wide receivers, Hero RB with Christian McCaffrey, and you've got your onesie of Josh Allen.

37:46in yeah I think um man tell me how you would think through the Trevo versus Monty decision

37:55Jason Moore:yeah I mean it really is a team makeup decision now I think that Trevo has the higher upside the potential to be a breakout player versus David Montgomery but David Montgomery is the three down back he will have the touchdown upside and the fact that this is your running back two I think I like Trevo as my running back three as my running back two you might need more solid reliability versus David Montgomery is not a backup I've got CMC if he plays well that's going to undo my team quickly if he doesn't I agree and I think the conversation around A-chan Jr. has been really negative but this was a guy they paid a ton of money to bring in on the offense I thought that was going to be your pick was A-chan Jr.

38:39Jason Moore:It might be. I'm really between those three. And then I like Devontae Adams here, but there's other wideouts I like later. So I think I'm going to do that. I think I'm going to take the guaranteed. I think there's upside and guarantee with A-Chan. Maybe that means you end up getting Travion. Maybe that was part of your plan. No, it wasn't. I mean, I might end up, but that was not part of my plan. I, you know, looking at my team, I've got one wide receiver. No, I've got one wide receiver. I think I've Henderson went before me. But had he been on the clock, I would not have taken him here over some of these wide receivers that I like on the board.

39:16All right. Terry McLaurin, David Montgomery, DJ Moore and Trevo does go right before your pick. But looking at your makeup, it makes sense that you wouldn't have probably gone there.

39:25Jason Moore:I love that I can't really give any advice Without it I feel like you interpret it That's your fault That's called learning from the past But Maybe if I'm trying to convince you of something I've got to just come out and say the opposite Of what you think I'm going to say Which is the opposite I think we're going to get into a real pickle For the rest of our lives as friends If you do that I went A-chan, you're on the clock I'll give you a second to think about it. We'll take a quick break and be right back.

41:35All right, Jason, James Cook, Amarian Hampton, Garrett Wilson, Tyler Warren. Full PPR mock from the 10 spot. You're on the clock.

41:46Jason Moore:All right, so I am looking at my wide receiver two here. There's not a quarterback, I think, that is a tier above enough to take here a second onesie. I already took Tyler Warren. So it's running back and wide receiver, but at the running back position, there's nobody as important to my roster as there is at wide receiver. Now, my wide receiver is my second one, very similar to what you were when you had Christian McCaffrey and you're trying to decide, do I take the high upside shot at Henderson, but maybe you need more reliability. That's where I am at wide receiver. Like I want to take Jordan Tyson despite the hamstring injury.

42:20Jason Moore:But he's your wide receiver too in a PPR. Exactly. I just don't think I can do that. There's a handful of guys here that I really like. Christian Watson is obviously awesome. But again, that's another big risk. He's missed games every year of his career. I'm going to take Old Faithful. I'm going to take Devontae Adams. A great offense. a goal line machine um you know he his his separation last year was still good and so you know maybe he falls off but he didn't last year i have no problem with it i think we've been pretty in sync actually because i think the last i think the wilson and the adams pick were the last the other names that are right there when i was on the board jadarian price that'll be an interesting pick goes 5 11 Tyson does go up 5 12 and then we see a couple I mean a blessing to you at the quick turn uh two onesies go off the board Drake made Jaden Daniels back to back so you're you're sitting there you've got a onesie you've got two running backs two wide receivers and a tight end and you're back on the clock quick turn I think I'm really confident in my James Cook Amari and Hampton start so Garrett Wilson and Devontae Adams could use some help I I love Mike Evans, but his hamstring hates him.

43:37Jason Moore:Evans-Adams combo is hilarious. The two oldest guys in the draft. I would never do it for that reason. Christian Watson, I know, big fan of him on the show. Mike is in love with him. I'm going to stick to my guns that I have had for a while, a player that a lot of people just soured on. They just don't think he's any good. They think he's the third best receiver on his team. But he was a top-ten draft pick. He was leading the team in receptions before he got injured last year. This is all a Roma Dunze. This is a Roma Dunze. I still believe in Roma Dunze. I believe in Rome, too. And at this point in the sixth round, to get a year three player who was clearly breaking out before he got injured last year, I'm in.

44:22Jason Moore:I love it. Rome, Parker Washington, Jalen Warren, Ramondre. I had my hopes on one player when I took A-chan. I was like, one guy I hope makes it all the way back around and the three quarterbacks going off the board helped it happen. My team is perfect for Mike Evans. Oh, okay. I love having you on board with a draft pick of Mike Evans. I told you we're kind of in sync today. London Burden Evans I feel outstanding about with Allen and CMC. You've got explosive high upside there. A little bit of risk, but yeah. Like Devontae went at 510. I get Evans at 608, and I look at them very similarly in production.

45:04Watson, Kuge, Kraft. Kraft off the board here ahead of Kittle. Kraft off the board ahead of Fannin, and I don't blame anyone for it. Johnson, Kraft, BTJ, Marv. Cortland Sutton, 702 as we cruise along here. Jalen Hurts at 703, Jason. that is the that's cheapest jalen hurts you've ever had that is an awesome pick i mean for

45:32Jason Moore:hurts falling to the sixth which is where he usually is in most drafts i think is a is a great value where even if he doesn't go back to the 15 rushing touchdowns with the tush push of the last several years prior to last year which he could is still a good value in the sixth getting him in the seventh is great. Dobbins. Mike isn't here to applaud that one at 7.04. I am taking back-to-back 49ers, Jason. Oh. I don't believe the current ADP is going to be reflective of the ADP. Either in this room amongst all of our writing staff and this group, you've got to pull the trigger sometimes ahead of where the ADP has a guy.

46:11I'm taking George Kittle. I'm going to take George Kittle. I like what I've seen so far. I feel like, you know, you're such a big Brock Purdy fan.

46:20Jason Moore:is their offense i i think brock i am all san francisco yes i was all in on sf i was literally gonna say now before you take that pick i want to make sure you know yeah i've got but then i saw that you took the pick yeah i took the pick i'm aware you better get brock purdy at this point well yeah i mean i don't know oh no you've got josh allen i forgot about that but yes christian mccaffrey mike evans and george kittle i do i i will say this i think their offense like usual is going to be very good and score a ton of points. So this could be a consolidated offense into those three weapons. It's dangerous, and should the Niners have a bad day, so will you.

47:00A substation, a dangerous substation. Jonathan Brooks, Michael Wilson, Alec Pierce, Justin Herbert, and Jason Moore is on the clock. Seventh round.

47:10Jason Moore:I am on the clock. I'm going to do something I haven't done. Well, I'm not going to do it with this pick. I'm going to grab Caleb on the way back. Two putt? Caleb Williams. Oh, man. That was rude. That was rude. I had several two putts. You did. You did. But I had a few three putts. I mean, you understand the position I was put in with such a great joke. Because I took Roma Dunze and were here later in the draft, I like the idea of getting the high upside explosiveness of Caleb Williams. Are you stacking? I am going to stack. but the the two people before me at the turn they already have just drafted quarterbacks last uh pick so I know they're not going to grab Caleb Williams now I'm I'm sitting here with still just James Cook and Omari and Hampton um which feels dicey but the running backs on the board the running backs I want are insurance backs they're Blake Corum they're Kyle Manung guy really high upside but not guys that I'm gonna be starting and they shouldn't be drafted in the seventh round or even the eighth round.

48:15Jason Moore:So I'm going to bypass on them. I'm going to look at the wide receiver position. And here in the seventh, I'm going to take, this has been a really fun mock draft because I feel like I'm grabbing guys that I haven't necessarily taken before to give them a little bit more respect. But the gap between Ibuka and Chris Godwin in ADP, I think is wider than it will be in real life. Godwin has a mind meld with Baker and getting him at the, you know, near the seven, eight turn. I'm down with that. We talked yesterday about Godwin or a couple of days ago. The place for Godwin especially is a full PPR league.

48:56I mean, I think it's a great pick. Fannin, Monungi, Dowdle and Josh Downs. Jason pulls the trigger now with Caleb Williams.

49:03Jason Moore:How do you feel about that? Jay? Jay Grizz happy that I got your stack, Caleb Williams and Roma Dunze? Yep. I've got burden too, Jay. Don't get mad at me. We're going for it. The other comments from the head coach, they want to break the scoring record. Did you know that all the other coaches have no interest in scoring? No. You know what? That's actually true. That is actually true. They do not have interest in that. And I'm not joking. I was talking to Mike. You weren't there about Ben Johnson and the quote. I love Ben Johnson so much. Here's his quote. I want to have the highest scoring offense ever, which happens to be the 2013 Denver Broncos.

49:43Jason Moore:I know how many points per game they scored, 37.9, and I want to surpass them. I want shutouts. I want blowouts. This dude is a dog, and he is going to put his foot on the throat of his opponent, and he is going to press down hard if he can if he can and i think he can but he's in the period of his life as a coach where he is making a name for himself and it is it is a funny thing to watch fantasy purposes it's fantastic this is not a coach that's going to try to just get the easy w's you know when you have the 2007 patriots that were scoring 40 points a game you won championships and so i don't know if they can but but certainly they're going to try to just keep running it up and not just like get out of there with an easy w they want to destroy people i love it um yeah he's setting himself up to need to succeed with the ripping the shirt off and all the behaviors it's fun ben johnson i'm i'm falling further and further in love with that man um where did we leave off Pollard, Mason, Dart, and Coram.

50:54Jason Moore:There was a play at practice the other day where he tells all of his players, never reach for the pylon. Never reach for the pylon unless it's fourth down or two-point conversion. That is a hard and fast rule. And I think it was one of their rookie wide receivers reached for the pylon. And so in their meeting, he had AI recreate that page where the player was flipping off the camera. Oh, my gosh. He's just like teaching lessons. Oh, my gosh, Jason. I love it, man. All right, I'm on the clock here. Yeah, you ask yourself, what's the price that you'd pay for DK Metcalf in a draft? And I'll say the eighth pick of the eighth round.

51:34I'll take DK Metcalf, I think, in a PPR league, adding that depth in the eighth round is crazy.

51:41Jason Moore:Yeah, I mean, you know Jalen McMillan was still available, right? Or Jerry McMillan? Yeah, Jerry Judy. Jerry Judy. Oh, or DK Metcalf. Yeah. Yeah. JCM, it's Corey Krosky, Merritt, Laporta, Gainwell, Harvey, poor Jason. You can't have a second tight end that's Sam Laporta. Kyle Pitts, Jacoby Myers, and Wandale going next. We have – my team has got two running backs right now, and that's an okay spot here where it's between, for me, at running back Rashad White and Chuba Hubbard. Maybe you could say Aaron Jones as well in that conversation. um chuba's not sexy but i'll take him as a third guaranteed to be out there so i'll take him at the 905 only two picks left in the draft jaden reed goes next at 906 how do you feel about your team so far with three rounds left we both have our onesies filled it's kind of luxury at this yeah i love my team as a whole i think the upside with um in a full ppr garrett wilson davante adams Roma, Dunes, Chris Godwin is great.

52:49Jason Moore:My starting running backs of Cook and Hampton are awesome. And then Warren and Caleb Williams, huge upside. My big struggle here with how this roster has been built is I don't have a lot of depth at running back. And there's not a lot of depth at running back left to grab right now. I was pretty upset just a second ago because usually when I see Aaron Jones in ADP on the board, I go, great, now I can take Jordan Mason. but Jordan Mason Brooks wisely took um a round ago well ahead yeah and as he should go in my opinion I will take Aaron Jones um sometimes these these uh backfields that you don't know who it's going to be you take the shot on who you think it is but both players are worthy draft picks late in a in a in a draft because there will be fantasy points on good offenses Mike's talked about this for years like you take whatever offense you think is going to be good that you don't know who the guy is going to be that's those late picks you know take shots on those type of guys all right well uh jason with aaron jones golden dobbs denzel boston we talked about him jonah coleman and two picks left jason we're in the 10th well again it's very similar to the last one i would have preferred to take bill and jordan mason i'm going to end up with aaron jones and rashad white uh but it's the same thing where you don't know who it's going to be for sure Also in a full PPR, Rashad White's pass-catching skills could easily – in a full PPR, you can make an argument for both Aaron Jones and Rashad White over the other guys just because they're the pass-catchers.

54:25Okay, well, I'm back on the clock here. I will tell you my mindset here with two picks left. I do want to grab another tight end. I wouldn't normally do it, but George Kittle is the one exception to that rule. The teams passed me in this draft. There's only one that doesn't have a tight end.

54:46Jason Moore:Dude, there's a clear player you've got to take here. At tight end? Yeah. Well, you're going to say Dalton Kincaid. Yeah, you've got Josh Allen. You stack. I mean, the breakout potential. So the two names that I – Oh, I know your other name. Dallas Goddard. Okay, three names. Okay. Isaiah Likely as well is a player that I think – They're all worthy shots. They really are. But maybe you can persuade me to pull the trigger now and not wait just because of the Josh Allen stack. So I'll take Kincaid. I think that's a good pick. I don't think you had any secret advantage to telling me that. I'm not looking to take a second tight end.

55:19Trevor Lawrence goes next. Stribling, who – That's a great value there. I couldn't take him. You were all out of Niners. I was all out of Niners.

55:28Jason Moore:You could only have a certain amount of roster spots for one team, and the system wouldn't let you take him. If you want to name my team, just name it Team Electrical Substation. Lawrence, Stribling, Purdy, off the board. that puts Kyle here on the clock at the turn, at the 10-11 turn, as he tries to figure out these two very important picks. But ultimately at the five, I would say I feel pretty satisfied with my roster. I feel like this one has come together better than some of our previous mock drafts. But Concepcion and Pacheco go next. Gadsden at 11-02. Getting ready to make the final selection here in the mock.

56:07You've got Brian Robinson off the board. Isaiah likely does go at 11.04. Kurt needed a tight end. So at this point, it's a luxury pick. I always like going upside here. Jacoby Lane is a name in Baltimore.

56:23Jason Moore:Sure, rookie that's been flashing. Zachariah Branch is a name. I love taking a shot early on him. He's perfect because you'll know week one what his role is or what he can do against NFL defenders. I think he either breaks out or is, you know, like you just got to. and then the most boring but i want to just mention his name because in a ppr in the final round it is a worthy name khalil shakir he's going to catch a ton of passes they will not be high value targets but much like a josh downs in years past like in a full ppr shakir is worth a thought do you consider jaylen coker uh i think i know there's a lot of people who just love the talent of jaylen coker i think he's awesome but i think the addition of waller and then tet being the number one and then the 3 000 passing yard stuff just kind of gets me uncomfortable yeah makes sense so i went jacoby lane so addison another great pick there jennings strange bigsby mike or uh jason you have one final pick tank bigsby is such a great pick this late i think that's one of those type of league winners him and and um uh why can't i think of karen's backup blake quorum yeah blake quorum uh those two guys are are amazing.

57:35Jason Moore:So I'm sitting here between Coker and Zachariah Branch. I'm going to pull the trigger on the rookie. He is an electric jitterbug. And the fact that you've got Drake London pits and they really don't have anybody else, he should find his way week one on the field. So now the question is just what he did in college where guys couldn't catch him. Does it work in the NFL? If it does, he should be great for fantasy. Probably doesn't, in which case you just kind of move on. All right, we are wrapping up our head-to-head mock draft. I have CMC, Travis H.N. Jr., and Chuba at running back. I've got Drake London, Luther Bird, and Mike Evans, DK Metcalf, and Jacoby Lane at wide out with Josh Allen, the number one quarterback off the board in the third to me, with Kittle, and then Kincaid to insure him.

58:24I feel pretty good.

58:26Jason Moore:Yeah, no, I don't mind that team other than the San Francisco trifecta is – it could backfire. I have no idea how. My team, I've got Caleb Williams at the top with Tyler Warnett, my onesies. My running backs are James Cook, Marion Hampton, Aaron Jones, and Rashad White. And at wide receiver, full PPR, Garrett Wilson, Devontae Adams, Roma Dunze, Chris Godwin, and Zachariah Branch. All right, that is going to do it for the mock draft. If you want to watch it and see all the picks, see all the players on the board, you can do so. YouTube.com slash the fantasy footballer. Subscribe, click the bell.
