| 0:00.0 | Jim Coventry is a fantasy analyst at RodeWire and host at Sirius XM Fantasy. |
| 0:04.9 | He was a fantasy sports writers association finalist for football writer of the year in 2022. |
| 0:09.4 | He's a retired English teacher. |
| 0:11.1 | He's a published author, and he loves to bring passion to his analysis. |
| 0:15.0 | These are his late round perspectives. I very rarely walk out of any draft saying it was a good track you never do that |
| 0:32.1 | you're right when I left that when I go this a good team I'll probably go old and 14 |
| 0:35.4 | when I said that but I go this is a good team I remember I remember that draft in 14 when I said that, but I go, this is a good team. |
| 0:37.9 | I remember, I remember that draft vividly. So for people who are listening and don't know, the King's Classic is the draft that we do in Jim and I are in the same division. And we do this draft every year. And we do an, it's a snake draft followed by an auction draft. So we do, I mean, it is literally, I mean, when do we start? It's like nine to five, basically, right? |
| 0:56.2 | Like, yes, exactly. Exactly. It's a is snake draft followed by an auction draft. So we do, I mean, it is literally, I mean, when do we start? |
| 0:54.3 | It's like nine to five basically, right? Like, yes, exactly. Exactly. It's literally just like a work day. And it's us in the Hall of Fame drafting back to back team. So like we do the snake draft first and then we take a lunch break. And then we do the auction draft and there's people watching us and we're hopping on serious x XM and we're doing, you know, we're covering it in every angle. We're talking junk to one another. It's a lot of fun. It's, it's, I wore my belt last year. You did. You did. And look, hey, if you win the auction league, I expect you to be, to be holding that belt next year. Oh, no, no, no, no. my goal is to win both. And can I'm, yes, because I'm, I'm, I'm six and three. |
| 1:31.5 | I'm, to be holding that belt next year. Oh, no, no, no, no. My goal is to win both and carry two belts. |
| 1:29.4 | Yes, because I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in first than the other one right now. Yeah, but with points, I'm like 10 or 15 points to whoever has the most point. And I want to, I want to, because of you last year, because of you carrying that belt, |
| 1:45.5 | I said, I want to, because of you last year, because of you carrying that belt, I said, |
| 1:46.1 | I want to carry two over my shoulders this year. |
| 1:48.9 | And I want to flex while I'm doing it. |
| 1:50.4 | I'll tell you what, there's nothing that I want more than to win the snake draft to get |
| 1:54.2 | a snake, snake league again and just have just two belt walking in back to back in a 14 team. |
| 1:59.1 | This league, again, for those of you who aren't aware, |
| 2:01.8 | this league is star one quarterback, two running back, three wide receiver, three flex. And it's a 14 |
| 2:07.2 | teamer and there's like six guys in the bench. So like I was amped when I got Devon Vela for |
| 2:12.2 | $3 out the waiver wire. Right. You know, like that's the way that this thing goes. It's like we, |
| 2:17.2 | we get we get pumped about these like really tertiary, secondary type players that, you know, every time I do like my 15 transactions article where I'm talking to people about who to add and drop and buy and sell. But the ad segment, I'm always thinking like, okay, I don't need to necessarily recommend this player, but this is definitely |
