| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Fantasy Football Today, Dynasty. I am your host, Heath Cummings, joined today by good friend Dave Kluge, who has been on this show multiple times in the past. |
| 0:18.3 | I'm not sure if you've been on the show before for one of our rookie position previews or not, |
| 0:23.7 | maybe. |
| 0:24.5 | I have to go back and look at last year's previews, but we are doing running backs part one today. |
| 0:32.2 | And Dave is a great guy to talk about this because, well, for a couple of reasons. |
| 0:37.4 | But one, that we've already |
| 0:38.5 | talked about in the show in the past, the football guys draft guide. Fantastic, Dave, |
| 0:42.8 | thank you for being here. Tell everybody about the football guys draft guide. Yes, you can get |
| 0:47.2 | it at football guys.com slash rookie guide. Right now, it's free. We're coming out with a new |
| 0:51.1 | version after the NFL draft that will be paid for, but we have over 150 prospects in there, broken up by positions. We have scouting reports on every player, player comps, ideal team fits, all of the measurables from the combine and pretty much everything else you could hope for. We put a lot of work into this and we come out with it immediately after the Super Bowl. So really getting kind of a head start on there. |
| 1:11.9 | And it's fun to get some takes out there nice and early in this rookie process. |
| 1:16.2 | As I said, we're talking running backs today. |
| 1:19.0 | And one of the reasons I was saying you were such a good person to do this is because I don't |
| 1:24.0 | even know if it's actually true. |
| 1:25.1 | I was thinking because your rankings are noticeably different than what I've got. |
| 1:30.9 | But then as I was going through, I kind of tried to compile some of the people who I'm having on, |
| 1:36.0 | some of the people who I really respect and how they rank the players in this class. |
| 1:39.7 | And there's plenty of things that we agree on. |
| 1:42.1 | But at the running back position, I'm not sure that any two draft analysts have the same top five running backs. No, absolutely not. And this year, and Heath, we're going to sit here and we're going to argue about, you know, RB2 versus RB7 when I think you probably feel the same way. Like these guys are really really, really close. You've kind of got Jeremiah Love up top. |
| 2:01.5 | And then there's a huge tier break. |
| 2:03.3 | And then this cluster of guys. And the weird thing is they're all such different archetypes. You've got like the small pass catchers. You've got the big bodied physical guys. You've got the three down back. Like there's a little bit of everything in there. So I know I use draft capital as kind of my guiding light when it comes to post draft rankings. |
| 2:19.2 | And right now, I think that there are guys in. in there. So I know I use draft capital as kind of my guiding light when it comes to post |
