| 0:05.0 | but using Canva was a really good one. |
| 0:08.0 | Sean designed some social posts to promote his friend's car boot sale. |
| 0:13.0 | They looked good, really, really good. |
| 0:17.0 | Next thing he knows, someone came and bought the lot, including the car. |
| 0:24.5 | Now Sean doesn't know how he's going to get home. |
| 0:28.0 | Thanks, Canva. |
| 0:33.8 | Free agency, just about in the rear view now. Let's take a look at winners and losers on fantasy |
| 0:39.8 | football today in five. And we'll give you five names, if not more. Adam and Jamie here. Jamie, |
| 0:47.2 | give me three winners. Let's start with winner number one. Yeah, I'm going to go Drake London, |
| 0:51.4 | finally getting a quarterback that hopefully will unleash his potential. |
| 0:55.2 | We know that he's dealt with some pretty crappy quarterback play in the first two years of his career. |
| 0:58.8 | Marcus Mariotta, Taylor Heinecke, Desmond Ritter, just hasn't been pretty for what the outlook has been for Drake London. |
| 1:05.5 | Certainly the production for Drake London, but entering year three with Kirk Cousins, he's been fantastic with his number one receiver. During his tenure in Minnesota, you know, you go from Adam Thielen and Stefan Diggs and, you know, having co-number one guys. But, you know, the worst season for those receivers was 14 and a half PPR points. And I think London will be better than that. Obviously what he's done the last four seasons with Justin Jefferson. I don't think he'll get to those heights. |
| 1:28.1 | But as we talked about on our full-length episode on Thursday, the upside for Drake London is definitely there. And I would not be surprised if he's a third-round pick for sure, but may creep into the back end of round two. He is almost there for me right now in my rankings. The other winner, I think, is an obvious one, is Sequin Barclay, going to a |
| 1:45.4 | situation where hopefully the offensive line and the system and everything around him will be |
| 1:50.6 | the best of his career, potentially, certainly the best quarterback he's played with, no offense, |
| 1:54.6 | Daniel Jones, but Jalen Hertz is an upgrade there. The offensive line will definitely be the best |
| 1:59.3 | that he's played with, even with the loss of Jason Kelsey, retired as a center for the Eagles. I'm hoping that he'll be involved in the passing game to the same level, but we saw DeAndre Swift basically have a 40 catch season, so Barclay will hopefully get to 50 catches, which I think is fantastic, and maybe score as many touchdowns as he has combined since his rookie campaign. So we could see a double-digit touchdown season for Seguan Barclay. As you've brought up many a time, Miles Sanders two years ago had 11 rushing touchdown. So it's not like it's just the tush push will steal every rushing touchdown as it happened for D'Andre Swift. Barclay could still have a double-digit touchdown campaign. The third guy just to be a little different. There's a lot of winners as a fallout of free agency, not just guys have changed teams, but also players who have left to open up opportunities. The third winner will be Chase Brown for me. I'm very excited about the opportunity for him, even if he opens the season of the second guy in Cincinnati behind Zach Moss, with Joe Mix and Gone. We saw Brown have some good moments last year, |
| 2:51.7 | very explosive running back. I think it will definitely be used in the passing game as they have, as we saw last year with him in spurts at the end of the season. But we know Samajai P. Ryan once upon a time was a pass catching back, even in tandem with Joe Mixon. So while Moss may be the lead running back, we know he's had a hard time staying healthy. I think Chase Brown's a huge winner with Joe Mixon leaving the banks. |
| 3:10.2 | Now, before you go to the losers, why do you think Drake London is being viewed as such a big winner and Kyle Pitts is being viewed as a little, a little tiny little winner? I think Pitts is a big winner. Again, you know, you look at what he was able to accomplish with a veteran capable quarterback, his rookie campaign, a thousand-yard season with Matt Ryan, and then he dealt with the terrible quarterbacks that Drake London dealt with as well. So if Pitts is healthy, which I hope he will be, you know, he played through what we all are kind of expecting or kind of labeling a knee injury, you know, he, he didn't necessarily |
| 3:41.9 | come out and say he was playing hurt, wasn't on the injury report, but it just didn't look the same |
