Summary

Garret and Andrew fire up a fast paced round of Booming Bench Bust, putting dynasty favorites into three buckets and forcing clear takes instead of the usual keep trade cut hedging. Garret frames it as a gut check game, and Andrew leans into ceiling and situation, even when it means making uncomfortable calls on big names. Listen to This Episode: Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube The show opens with a tricky wide receiver trio where Andrew crowns George Pickens as the boom, slots Garrett Wilson as the bench, and tags Chris Olave as the bust based on target competition. Garret counters by calling Garrett Wilson his boom and pushing Pickens into bust territory due to volatility and situational risk. At quarterback, both agree Joe Burrow carries the biggest boom profile, but they split on the bench bust debate between Patrick Mahomes and Justin Herbert, with Garret worried about Herbert’s volume under Harbaugh. At running back, both side with Kenneth Walker as the boom over Breece Hall and Quinshon Judkins, then align again on a second trio by making Javonte Williams the boom and fading Josh Jacobs. Tight end debate follows, with both landing on Sam LaPorta as the bust, while Garret pushes Kyle Pitts as his boom. The episode closes with a fun QB2 swing where Andrew bets on Ty Simpson as the long play boom, while Garret plants a flag on Daniel Jones as a potential career resurgence.

0:00.0	Welcome back into the Dynasty Nerds podcast.
0:03.3	I am your host, Garrett Price, here with my guy, Andrew, my, Andrew. How are you doing, man? Not too bad, man. Happy to be here. I'm excited to because today we're playing a little game and it's called Boomin Bench Bust. Have you been with us for a while? You'll know the game. But if not, let me explain it real quick. Very similar to the concept of keep trade cut. And people have probably all played keep trade cut before. But I have two major issues with keep trade cut. One, most of the guys typically are like, well, I wouldn't cut. I wouldn't cut one of these guys. They're all pretty good. Why would I cut one of these guys uh so I like bust better who do you
0:39.1	think is is going to disappoint uh and then I personally you know I think once you're smart
0:45.1	you're like okay trade I'm just always going to trade the player with the highest value
0:49.6	regardless of how I feel about them just always trading straighten that guy. So it becomes very gimmicky,
0:54.7	whereas I want you actually put something out there. Like, I actually think this guy is the best.
0:59.6	I think this guy, I'm feeling if I don't feel better on my bench. I think this guy is going to
1:05.0	stink it up. Now, sometimes we might feel like all three players are booms or all three players
1:09.9	are busts, but we've got to make
1:11.9	the arguments to fit the game so uh that that's what makes us a little more challenging now
1:17.1	Andrew did not get to see any of these ahead of time so he is going straight off the dome which
1:23.4	can be tricky uh he's going straight off the dome to try to answer these. We'll see how many we get.
1:28.5	I have quite a few here. We'll see how many of them we get to. But Andrew, you feeling good?
1:33.4	You ready to go? I'm feeling good, man. I always like coming right off the dome with this because I
1:38.8	always feel like it makes you truly think and not overanalyzed to an extent.
1:44.7	Like you get to just kind of say like this is where my gut feels.
1:47.4	This is where my brain's telling me to go.
1:49.0	And I'm not trying to overanalyze it with stats and data and all this other stuff.
1:52.9	Because that's good and it helps you make good decisions.
1:55.5	But sometimes you got to trust the gut when it comes to boom, bench, bust.
1:59.6	All right.
1:59.9	Well, let's do it.
