| 0:00.0 | I'm Dan Schneier. He's Dave Richard, and these are the four biggest mysteries of the 2025 season on Fantasy Football Today Express. |
| 0:12.5 | Let's dive into these bad boys, Dave. I know you and I have been pretty much head first and just draft stuff, but we've got to talk 2025 fancy football season. I want to start with this one because it's a fun one. |
| 0:23.0 | How high up in round one do you believe is too high from elite neighbors and Brian |
| 0:27.4 | Thomas Jr. if you want to draft these two players? |
| 0:30.2 | I don't think they should be considered among like the top five picks, Dan. |
| 0:36.9 | But they're, |
| 0:38.4 | don't be surprised if they're around one picks in full PPR leagues. |
| 0:42.0 | The most recent mock draft that we did, |
| 0:45.2 | we were both in it. |
| 0:46.6 | We saw them go at the, |
| 0:48.1 | the 12-13 turn, |
| 0:50.2 | Thomas a spot ahead of Malik neighbors. |
| 0:53.2 | And it's interesting, |
| 0:55.1 | and this is where I'm going to throw back at you, Dan, you took Christian McCaffrey over both of these receivers in the first |
| 1:00.7 | round. Somebody else in the draft took Tyreek Hill over both of these receivers. Somebody else took |
| 1:06.7 | Nico Collins. Heath took Pukunukuoka. I'm not going to ask you to necessarily argue |
| 1:11.9 | Christian McCaffrey over Thomas and Neighbors, but maybe those other players, Tyreek, Nico Puka. |
| 1:18.1 | In your mind, could any of them get leapfrogged by either Thomas or neighbors, depending on what |
| 1:24.2 | happens in the draft? I would say it's possible. I think Nico is the one that stands out to me, just given some of the uncertainty with the injury situation of the Texans. I know Christian Kirk is there, but I don't know exactly how fast he'll ingratiate himself in that offense. And Nico's per game numbers were absurd, especially yards for a route run. I think he's an evolving player. As far as the others, I don't know if I would make the |
| 1:44.2 | case. I mean, we don't have to get into it. But for me, McCaffrey is a cheat code. Went healthy. |
| 1:47.6 | So you're just getting league winning upside there. So I would take him still. But yeah, I think when it comes down to the draft is, look, if the Giants draft Travis Hunter and something comes out and they say, we're going to play them at wide receiver. |
| 1:58.5 | Will that change week neighbor's outlook? |
