drafting our going deep league that's what we're going deep league that's what we're going to do

on this bonus episode of stealing bananas i'm ben gretch you can find me on twitter at yards Per Gretchen and at my substack at Ben Gresh.com joined as always by Sean Siegel. You can find at Rodeviz. And Sean, we talked to Mike Clay about a week ago and talked about this upcoming going deep draft and we're getting ready to do it. And we thought it'd be fun to stream it and talk to. I mean, this is the great format that we talked about. It's super flex. You start three running backs. You start six receivers, two tight ends. It's not going to be applicable to a lot of leagues. At the same time, there couldn't really be a better test of a sort of structural drafting, the concepts of how you relate to each

position, how you need to be flexible in draft to, you know, different, different outcomes.

And we're going to, I think, going to spend a lot of time talking just about what positions

we want to go at, at the different parts, right? Yeah, you mentioned that this may not transition or

translate directly to a lot of the drafts that people are doing, Ben. But I'm excited for this one

because it is a superflex draft. We've had some questions about superflex. We've talked about it to an

extent, but we haven't drafted a superflex team outside of Dynasty, and this will give listeners

a chance to kind of think through what they want to do when they're on the clock in Superflex

leagues coming up over the next week. When we were talking with Mike Clay, we mentioned that we

thought this was basically a start with tight ends and QB situation. Last year we went tight end, QB, QB, Tide End,

and we're fortunate enough to hit on Travis Kelsey to start.

Then Lamar Jackson and Deshawn Watson, those two picks panned out,

and then Darren Waller.

So that four-player start really carried us.

This is also a great format and, you know, hesitate to bring it up because we talk about it a lot.

But if there's ever been a perfect format for zero running back, it is this one because the quarterbacks are so important, the tight-ins are so important.

And then the starting lineup is three running back, six-wide receiver.

To fill those six wide receivers after you started maybe tight-end quarterback, you've got to really get after it.

You actually don't have to score hardly any running back points to be competitive in this league.

Yeah, I mean, you get both quarterback spots, both tight-end spots.

And then like you said, you can start or you have to start six wide receivers.
