When all three of you guys have your own team and draft in different areas of the board is 10x better. More players discussed, more strategies, more etc
I agree it is better but I feel like this is still really good, especially when you get past the first 3-4 picks. You get different ideas on how to build off the core of the same team.
This is the problem I have with Sleeper’s mock draft AI. It’s not smart enough to understand in the mid rounds that most people aren’t taking their 2nd QB (much less a 2nd TE). It’s the same with rookie mocks. Really frustrating because I’m betting the guys would have had a serious conversation about taking Stafford to stack with Kupp had he fallen 1 slot instead of going as 2nd QB.
The last 2 rounds wouldn't be a waste of time. Everyone talks about the first couple of rounds at nausea, and the last 3-5 rounds are always the most difficult. If you can nab some great value in those rounds, you can leave a draft with trade bait and a strong bench.
That’s why I like to have a bunch of guys that are “my guys” past the 10th round. Last year was Gus Edwards, Antonio Brown, Aj Dillon, M Callaway and Brandin Cooks. Some are hits some are complete misses.
Can't help but think the cardinals bias is leaking into the conner opinions. I'd bet everything I own Najee out performs his next season and I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't even close
Good morning ballers. I know you guys are mainly a redraft show/podcast but I was wondering what do you guys think about doing a dynasty start up draft on the show?
Gimme Ekeler on the chargers > Connor in his situation any day. I can get persuaded way easier on him almost repeating than Connor 100%. Although, the other players around Connor’s ADP is a lot less of a decision than say Cooper Kupp.
The reason that Kamara's ADP is so low is because he's likely facing some kind of suspension from the NFL, it's not some random value drop for no reason.
Big fan, just a quick question about your draft strategy here. I keep hearing to avoid those round 3-6 running backs but here you guys went with one in round 3 and one in round 4. It seems like a bit of a trap taking these guys there. Why not go full RB0 at that point?
I know you were kidding about moving due to heat, but if it were true where would y'all move to? Am I crazy for keeping Etienne for a 16 round keeper? I'm also keeping Mixon in the second and Elijah Moore in the 15th.
@@YourFavGinger206 I think it's very high reward, like top 10 rb high. Dude could be a reception machine and Jaguar rbs have been productive for fantasy damn near every year. I think people are hesitant cause they haven't seen him on the field yet, which is fair.
If you do decide to move from AZ, Seattle WA is the place to be! Also yes I am watching this super late but we have draft date and order set so now I binge watch all your videos…excited for a new season guys!
the reason im going Aaron Jones with your 2 pick is just like you always say, the position that benefits the most from a #1 WR vacated targets is the RB....and Aaron jones already catches a lot of balls...hes the pick easy for me.
I would've taken Barkley in the 2nd and been surprised to see Mike Evans available in the 3rd, that would've been my 3rd pick. Miles Sanders or Dobbins 4th, then much later I'm definitely stacking Brady and Gronk on the cheap to go with Evans, or snagging Schultz in 5th for TE over Gronk, but I could get another RB/wr at 5th like CEH or Etienne and then Gronk/hunter henry cheap later. then all depth at RB/wr. Championship!
Did you guys see the 3 Steelers players playing pickleball? Grandma schooled them! I love my days off and I get a Footballers drop. Can you guys try a 16 team mock someday? I think it will be a totally different experience
Not football related, but confused why players changing their name breaks the site (like the newly anointed Ken Walker). They should just have a foreign key to a players table? Or even if its nosql they should still be passing around an id to reference the document. Even if they use the players name to get data about them through some other api, it should be a separate key->value that relates what the 3rd party api calls the players vs. what the footballers site does? Maybe they're just talking about updating articles/text blobs.
Ya there is no way I am drafting WR in first 2 rounds. There is so much value in the later rounds between 3-5. I would rather go RB-TE or Rb-RB in first two rounds and then go WRs in rounds 3-5.
I lived in California and now in Texas. But I miss that heat and Arizona is my next target. Texas is hot but humid. Not that same sizzle that makes my nuts sweat. I'm missing that in my life.
I never understand why you have 3 people making one pick? Why wouldn't you just make 3 picks....30 second reason on why picking them and it's faster than this method. Way better information and coverage on players evaluations.
I'm also like Andy and make at least one lopsided trade a year.. last off-season I traded Julio Jones for Cooper kupp straight up and the guy quit the league after the season 🤣.. this year I just traded 25 FAAB dollars for courtland Sutton 🤷🤣🤣
No way you guys should draft 4wrs and 2rbs in your top 6 rounds knowing that dobbins is not even fully healthy. Doing a what if is nice or he should be but as of now, he isn’t
This draft looks terrible. I think these guys drafted wrong as soon as they went CeeDee Lamb early. I would think that they would be struggling with this team all season
Why are quarterbacks so weakly valued? They get more yards and touchdowns than any other position. Just strikes me as someone who has never done fantasy football as odd
The 2022 Ultimate Draft Kit is available NOW on Web, iOS, Android! UltimateDraftKit.com
Love seeing you guys do mock drafts, so helpful and fun to watch. Thank you guys.
Absolutely love your mocks but can you do a standard non ppr one? That would be awesome!
Pittman getting picked right before the break and the reaction faces is classic lol
The funniest feeling in mock drafts is just getting your guy sniped 😭
Man I can't wait to hear the first "IT'S FOOTBALL TIME!" of the season! I need football in my life!
86 more days until "It's Football Time!"

"Lazard has to show up to camp for us to draft him, Mike"... *Immediately drafts a current free agent Gronk*
How is Travis Etienne not being discussed in the 4th round?!?!
This is the problem I have with Sleeper’s mock draft AI. It’s not smart enough to understand in the mid rounds that most people aren’t taking their 2nd QB (much less a 2nd TE). It’s the same with rookie mocks.

Agreed
Completely agree, they need to do it online with other people that's the only way its realistic
I was surprised nobody mentioned Etienne in the 4th. I have him practically on autodraft over Dobbins
Yep agreed thats an ugly pick from a pass catching perspective. Moore and Pittman on the board too, even Hall for upside.
Because it’s dumb. Meet me in the comment section after the season. 10$ gentleman’s bet Dobbins finishes over Etienne in half point scoring.
The last 2 rounds wouldn't be a waste of time. Everyone talks about the first couple of rounds at nausea, and the last 3-5 rounds are always the most difficult. If you can nab some great value in those rounds, you can leave a draft with trade bait and a strong bench.

Not that I'm saying I can predict an injury. But I don't think Conner stays healthy this year, so I think Williams is sneaky sneaky
Mockdraft is my favorite episode of all episodes. There is nothing better than actual handson experience.
Good morning ballers. I know you guys are mainly a redraft show/podcast but I was wondering what do you guys think about doing a dynasty start up draft on the show?
Kinda feels like Andy phoned that one in with the Gronk pick 😂😂😂
Doesn’t want to take Eckler because of TD regression. Proceeds to take James Conor
Gimme Ekeler on the chargers > Connor in his situation any day. I can get persuaded way easier on him almost repeating than Connor 100%. Although, the other players around Connor’s ADP is a lot less of a decision than say Cooper Kupp.
1.05 vs 3.05, how do you not understand cost vs benefit analysis lol
@@cameronmatson6364 there's a reason he finished higher.
The reason that Kamara's ADP is so low is because he's likely facing some kind of suspension from the NFL, it's not some random value drop for no reason.
I love Mike but if he had his choice he would pick WR for the first 6 picks
Big yearly landmark for this podcast. We're almost there guys!!!
Good to see yet another 1/2 PPR Single QB draft. Living in the past.

why dont u guys do mocks with subs? the CPU sometimes pick weird
I know you were kidding about moving due to heat, but if it were true where would y'all move to? Am I crazy for keeping Etienne for a 16 round keeper? I'm also keeping Mixon in the second and Elijah Moore in the 15th.
Why would keeping Etienne for a 16th be crazy?
@@dougevansdm just haven't heard much about him this off-season. Luckily it's low risk and possible high reward.

The mock draft “growl” is my new favorite bit on the show

Team: 1 👍🏾
Team: 6 💪🏾
Team : 12 👌🏾 shld have took Zeke instead of Higgins tho
Always a good day when the footballers release a mock draft :)

in the 80s we lived in Bullhead City ( AZ NV CA border) and it was regularly in the mid 120s and hit over 130. Enjoy, guys
Can we get a super flex mock?!?
Why draft Gronk, who's not currently on an active roster, over Cole Kmet, who's going to be the number 2 target in his offense?
Best fantasy show by far
I would've taken Barkley in the 2nd and been surprised to see Mike Evans available in the 3rd, that would've been my 3rd pick. Miles Sanders or Dobbins 4th, then much later I'm definitely stacking Brady and Gronk on the cheap to go with Evans, or snagging Schultz in 5th for TE over Gronk, but I could get another RB/wr at 5th like CEH or Etienne and then Gronk/hunter henry cheap later. then all depth at RB/wr. Championship!
Andy pooped his big boy pants in this one lol
A Rob going to take a lot of Kupp’s shine this year. S Diggs might be the better move at 5
I'm in a standard scoring Keeper league. I have Jonathan Taylor, Kamara, Lamb and Andrews. I can only keep 2. Thoughts?
JT and Andrews for me. Kamara is likely facing a suspension and wr is deep. You keep the number one RB and the 1-2 TE in the league.
Did you guys see the 3 Steelers players playing pickleball? Grandma schooled them!
I love my days off and I get a Footballers drop. Can you guys try a 16 team mock someday? I think it will be a totally different experience
I did not like the Cooks pick. You guys even said you were short at RB and somehow got a 4th WR.
ho do you feel about Jameson Williams for Dynasty? Top 5?

Never take a WR that early. You got screwed at RB because of it. Shoulda took eckler
Think you should have taken Fort Knox where you were discussing him.
You’d take Kirk Cousins & Trey Lance over Tom Brady??
Love the stache Andy you’re a guy who can rock it
Call me crazy, I'm not taking CM top 4.
I think the Sammy Watkins vs. Alan Lazard debate should be a WHEEL of SHAME wager...
LIVE SHOW TOMORROW BABY!!
I’m so tired of seeing zero RB in mock drafts. It’s like every person says “oh it’s a mock let’s try Zero RB to see how it goes.” And it goes terribly
Ya there is no way I am drafting WR in first 2 rounds. There is so much value in the later rounds between 3-5. I would rather go RB-TE or Rb-RB in first two rounds and then go WRs in rounds 3-5.
There's fewer quality RBs so going WR & WR is poor drafting. Makes no sense.
@@ambiven10
The RBs in general just suck this year.
“I’m still in on Zeke” lol
woooowhoooo its a GRUNTLED day today indeed!! counting down the days till we can hear "IT'S FOOTBALL TIME"
Should have let Jason take Andrews
You guys just love to hate on the Steelers. Who in their right mind would take Conner over Harris. Super Bowl XLIII still hitting yinz in the feels.
Before I realized Mike was on webcam, I thought his head had grown. lol
If they take Gronk in the 9th I'll cry
EDIT:
WHY ANDY?
Can someone please explain to me how CMC is still going number 1
The allure that if he stays healthy he will drop 30 a week. I’m not touching CMC in the top 5 personally.
@@CenTexGarrett yea that’s where I’m at not even in the 1st
Great show!
Arizona residents flock north for the summer. You guys should become sunbirds.
Round 5 should have been Sutton. He's going to explode this year. Mark it.
Trade Chubb and Hopkins for Diggs and Gibson? full point ppr
So much has changed since the time this was filmed.
I was so confused for a second with Mike's video bubble being over his chair, I thought he was like a bobblehead or something for a minute
Does Jason not remember what happened when Chubb went down last year. They tried to feature kareeem hunt and he just wasn’t a top ten back.
I like team 6 and team 7 the most out of this draft
Y'all must have recorded this early, my man the 👽🦎 put the pen to paper in green bay. Wr 1 incoming, Mike knows what up.
gawd i dont miss the hot water that is suppose to be cold water in phoenix. lol
Still don’t get why ppl live there lol
Well no natural disasters in AZ at least if you don’t live in a flood zone which is very easy to avoid.
@@drewwhelchel1394 i mean thats true if you don't consider living on the surface of the sun a natural disaster
@@drewwhelchel1394 Wild fires aren't natural disasters?
Lived here my whole life. We ride
I lived in California and now in Texas. But I miss that heat and Arizona is my next target. Texas is hot but humid. Not that same sizzle that makes my nuts sweat. I'm missing that in my life.
Don’t think this team is winning any leagues lol first two picks are great and the cooks pick is perfect but leaving a lot to be desired at RB
That gronk pick 😂
Why do people think the overall #1 will repeat? It never happens.
If I've learned one thing from these guys from these podcast is that I will never move to Arizona
Russell gage, deep sleeper could see him being a wr 2 high probability
😂😂😂 tht JK Dobbins pick killed y’all team 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️ Tht pick was Horrible
I think it’s ludicrous to trust in Arizona this year. Kliff would’ve been the worst coach in football if Urban didn’t show up
I never understand why you have 3 people making one pick? Why wouldn't you just make 3 picks....30 second reason on why picking them and it's faster than this method. Way better information and coverage on players evaluations.
The last draft was like that
You all are crazy. Sammy Watkins is year's past being a functional WR, much less a WR1.
For about 5 seconds i thought mike was in the studio
Unfortunately sleeper drafts aren’t even close to realistic.
Holy crap I am Andy…I have the same trading history and tactic 😂
Sanders burned me so hard last year don't think I can do it again.
This draft was subpar... not total trash, but definitely underwhelming.
Zero percent chance Hunt gets cut or traded. 🔒
Parrris Campbell over pittman this year
I'm also like Andy and make at least one lopsided trade a year.. last off-season I traded Julio Jones for Cooper kupp straight up and the guy quit the league after the season 🤣.. this year I just traded 25 FAAB dollars for courtland Sutton 🤷🤣🤣
Jarvis Landry not worth a shot?
You guys are nuts ranking both Saquon and Najee so low.
No way you guys should draft 4wrs and 2rbs in your top 6 rounds knowing that dobbins is not even fully healthy. Doing a what if is nice or he should be but as of now, he isn’t
Turn off your water heater and let that be your “cold”
Why is "construct your roster" giving me a half-chub?.... I need football back.
Why did Zeke drop off so much?
Forcing that Gronk pick was such a blunder. lmao ruined the whole back half of the draft
Kareem Hunt over Bateman and JuJu is laughable boys..
I agree that Hunt is too good to get cut, but there are some stupid people out there. Who knows.
Love this show and everything, but this team scares the deuce out of me
YESSSSS! MOCKALOCKADINGDONGGGGGG!
This draft looks terrible. I think these guys drafted wrong as soon as they went CeeDee Lamb early. I would think that they would be struggling with this team all season
I thought Mike liked Trey Lance?
gronk no playing
kenwalker ranch
KenWalker Ranch
Who tf is taking CMC at the 1.01?? JT goes #1 in EVERY draft on yahoo
Why are quarterbacks so weakly valued? They get more yards and touchdowns than any other position. Just strikes me as someone who has never done fantasy football as odd
They only get .04 points per yard and only 4 points per touchdown, and typically a lot more starting qbs do well compared to rbs and wrs
