| 0:00.0 | If you need some help with late round picks, we've got you covered right now on Fantasy Football Today Express. |
| 0:11.7 | And some early sleeper, some hidden gems for you. |
| 0:14.5 | I'm Adam Azer with Jamie Eisenberg. |
| 0:16.2 | What's up, Jay. |
| 0:17.2 | How are you? |
| 0:18.3 | Yeah, not great, but under the weather. |
| 0:22.9 | Yeah, let's talk about these hidden gems. |
| 0:25.7 | Give me a name to kick it off. |
| 0:27.9 | So let's go by position, just make it easy. |

And I think we're seeing Josh Jacobs playing through knee injury. Love will be somebody I'll be looking to draft a lot of. |
| 1:27.7 | I think Campbell Ward is going to be a great late-round pick |
| 1:29.7 | just because he started to show some flashes at the end of the season |
| 1:32.1 | and started picking things up. |
| 1:33.5 | But quarterback to me is easy. |
