Welcome in everybody to fancy pros. This is the fancy football podcast is me Joey P Joe P's

0:05.5

a P and today we're going to talk about some draft sleepers and to help me break down some

0:09.6

of the lesser known names that might be surprising in this year's NFL draft and in this year's

0:14.3

2023 NFL season. It's my boy Mr. Big Pot energy Andrew Erickson Erickson. Let's start with

0:20.9

some of the running backs that might be floating a little bit under the radar. I know some

0:24.6

guys are starting to get some helium. But who do you have your eyes on that's going outside

0:28.6

of the top 24 prospects right now that you think could really make an impact in 2023?

1:33.0
