| 0:00.0 | This is the late round podcast with your host, JJ Zacharisa. |
| 0:10.0 | What's up, everyone? It's JJ Zacharisen. |
| 0:14.4 | In this episode 980 of the late round fantasy football podcast, thanks for tuning in. |
| 0:23.0 | We're in the middle of NFL draft season. |
| 0:27.8 | You're reading prospect profiles. You're listening to me talk about my model. For some of you, |
