Hello, hello, hello, and welcome to the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast, which of course is a podcast talking about fantasy football.

0:10.7

And I'll tell you, I think we're going to have the greatest show in the history of the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast today.

0:15.6

No.

0:16.0

Not just because we have Scott Pinooski hosting, but we have Andy Barron's wearing the Chicago garb. He's already

0:22.0

gone all in on their first round pick, and we're getting his chestnuts today. We're going to

0:26.0

break down what's gone on the NFL draft, focusing on rounds two and up. Of course, our Liz Dalton

0:32.1

and Matt, our esteemed colleagues already broke down round one on Friday, so you go check that out

1:24.1

I mean, I'm a Patriots fan, and they never eat their birthday cake.

1:27.9

They always say, oh, we'll save it for next year. They trade down. They trade down.

1:32.5

They trade down. Again, Dave Gettleman famously with the Giants never trades up. All of a sudden,

1:36.6

you know, I'm sorry, never trades down. All of a sudden, Gettleman is trading down like crazy.
