What's going on, everybody.

0:20.2

Welcome back to the PFF NFL YouTube channel and another best ball draft here, powered by our friends over at Draft Kings.

0:28.4

I'm Trevor Sykima.

0:29.0

That's Nathan Yonki here for round two or just another live best ball draft that we have here on the channel.

0:34.3

Very excited about this one.

0:36.0

Nate, I think we did our first one.

0:37.5

What was this? About a month and a half ago. So, you know, we got our first one out of the way. We feel good about it. I'm not going to lie. I went back and I looked at it. I still feel good about that one. But we're here for another one. How do you feel, my friend? Now, I got to ask you this genuinely because we are what what, one, two weeks away from the season kicking off.

0:57.6

And I got to know, how many drafts have you done?

1:00.5

How many mock drafts have you?

1:01.8

Are we up to the thousands at this point with you and how many reps you've gotten at this point?

1:06.6

We're definitely in the double digits in terms of actual drafts where I have teams in the season, plenty more mock drafts.

1:12.7

I have a number of drafts going on right now, have all of them out of the way. If I'm on the clock, they're going to have to wait for me right now. But I've got plenty of drafts going on currently as well. You know, I used to not love like the slow play drafts, as they call it, where you just have a lot of time and the drafts kind of ongoing for a couple of days, maybe a week. I used to be the person who was like, no, one night, we're getting this thing done. And now I've come to appreciate both sides of things. I like both. And yeah, I have some earlier in the summer that are a little bit longer format. A lot of those are dynasty format stuff. but it in good fun so if you're a fantasy football player out there at all whatsoever or if you are brand new to best ball and you're trying to learn well this is a great place to have a little bit of a hands-on experience here for you what nathan and i are going to do is we're going to join a draft king's best ball lobby and pool that you guys can do over at draft Kings as well. We're going to be drafting the team. We're going to be walking you through. We're going to be talking about all different types of strategies. You know, there's a lot of buzzwords that we hear when it comes to best ball. It might be a little bit different than fantasy football. Stacking is a term that everybody uses where you're trying to get multiple players of a certain

2:17.5

team on there. Obviously, you've got running back strategies that are very different from person to person

2:22.5

depending on who you ask. But Nate, I'm excited about this one. So walk us through exactly what

2:29.2

best ball is, how it makes it a little bit different than I would say, you know, fantasy football

2:34.0

that people normally picture when they think about that game. And what makes best ball a lot of fun and some of the things that we're going to be focusing on here today? So best ball is different in that you just draft the team. You don't have to worry about setting your lineup. You don't have to worry about who you should be playing. You don't have to worry about waivers. You just get to do the fun part of the draft.

2:53.6

I'm going to let you take it over for a second, though, because my screen, that's sharing, our draft draft, disappeared, so I'm going to have to fix that right now. Okay, all right, I'll take over for you. We've got to make sure that we get that pulled up. You guys can see all this over at Draft Kings as well.
