Are we going to be back to weekly?

 

[Carl Eller's Dead Liver]

Which RB's after Ingram and LeShoure have the chance to be big time fantasy producers in future years (ie which RB's in this draft class can be NFL starters and not just career change of pace backs/back ups)? Can you specifically discuss these RB's:

Ryan Williams - Concensus #3 behind Ingram and LeShoure, but I have my doubts about him

Jordan Todman - 3rd best back in the draft?

Daniel Thomas

Dion Lewis

Roy Helu Jr.

Kendall Hunter

DeMarco Murray

Thanks guys! So pumped for this show!!

Are we going to be back to weekly?

every week! 1 hour during March, 2 hours as we get closer to the NFL Draft!

 

[Andrew Garda]

I would like this but apparently I used my quota up.

:like:

We are hearing a lot on how deep this DE class is, but not a lot about LBs. I realize it has a lot to do with who drafts them, but from an IDP perspective, who are some LBs you are keeping your eye on.

 

[Dave Larkin]

It's great to have you guys back!

1. Wes Bunting has Christian Ponder as his highest rated QB going into the draft. What does Matt think of Ponder from what he has seen from him on tape? I think the injuries he had to play through in his senior season should act as a feather in his cap, but instead he seems to be the forgotten man.

2. Who do you both think is the most talented player in this draft class regardless of position?

 

[5-ish Finkle]

Would love to hear thoughts about these four guys in general, and anything specific if you got to see them go through drills and such at the combine:

Marcus Cannon

Rock Carmichael

Jerrell Powe

Edmund Gates

How dare you negotiate a contract to be paid from BTR even if there's no season! We are going to run to a Senator and ask for help if you don't show us the books.

Those of us in the chat are prepared to decertify the union if you don't start doing your rants again

 

[Bri]

Is there a workout video this year?

 

[Bri]

HHHHHHHHHHHhang on a sec. I know ya went to the combine and Matt is mister draft wiz, but you interviewed John friggin Elway this past week. We need details man. That must've been awesome for you.

 

[Thomsen]

Awesome! Can't wait.

 

[Bracie Smathers]

Belly up to the draft bar and give us your top-ten mock.

[Jason Wood]

NOW. WE. ARE. TALKING!

 

[beachbum]

Thank God you're back!

Couple of questions:

1- How about a couple of second-fiddle WR thoughts? Assuming (a) Matt Stafford stays healthy and (b) Arizona gets a veteran QB, what do you see as the fantasy ceilings for guys like Nate Burleson and Steve Breaston? I think Burleson is clearly the #2 in DET, but is Doucet pushing Breaston in ARZ? Could adding Palmer/McNabb bump Breaston's #s up significantly?

2- And picking up on the QB-addition theme, do you see any teams poised to make a significant jump (ala the Rams) if they get a legitmate signal caller? I know the entire NFC West is QB-challenged and ripe for the taking, but beyond that does your crystal ball see a fantasy surprise-in-the-making somewhere in the NFL?

WELCOME BACK!

I'm curious about your thoughts on the above mentioned plus Carter and Vereen as well.

Welcome back guys! Seems all is right in the world with my weekly Audible fix back. Quick question. Assuming Ingram goes 1.1 and Green goes 1.2 (or vice versa), who would you guys take in the 1.3 hole in a non PPR league? Personally I'm torn between Julio and Mikel. Who would you guys take and why? Thanks in advance and as always ROCK, FLAG, and EAGLE!!!
