Let's take a little longer look at the quarterback position in the NFL draft with Emory Hunt right now on fantasy football today in five. Adam and Emory here, we asked him his favorite three. And he didn't say, can you pick it? And he didn't say Matt Corral. He didn't say some of the big names they're going to see at the top of some lists. So let's talk about the rest of the class here, Emory. And if you want to hear his top three, Malik Willis was number one, but you can hear the rest of it on the Thursday episode of Fantasy Football Today in Five. All right. So talk about the guys that, I guess, the rest of the, not the rest, but the consensus seems to like more than you do. And why did Kenny Pickett? Why Matt Corral?

1:11.6

Why did they not make it into your top three? Well, right at number four, and he's tied with my number three guy, if you remember from yesterday, and that's Desmond Ritter. I've said this before, and I'll say it again. He's probably the most pro-ready, quote-unquote, guy that can step in and start right now. It reminds me a lot of Marcus Mario,

1:27.6

someone that has played a lot of games that can

1:29.6

stabilize an offense, A team before they signed Tyraud Taylor would have been the Giants. That would have been the ideal fit. A team that's talented. They just need someone that to not turn the ball over. Desmond would have been perfect for them. So he's highly rated for me. Just didn't make that top three. As far as everyone else, Matt Correll, Carson Strong, Sam Howell, they all have about the same grade for me. So they're bunched up together as a trio. And Kenny Pickett is just outside of that three. Pickett, I'll start with him first. I've seen a lot of Pickett. Four years of Pickett. I've been in two of his games live on Thursday night when he played North Carolina. He's a guy that can play. But this year was his splash year. I think he's kind of max as a prospect, which isn't bad. It's just that you don't expect an upside pick when you're taking someone like Pickett who has played that many games. Also, for Strong, you worry about the medicals.

2:19.9

He says he's going to be ready to go.

2:21.3

He's healthy.

2:22.2

We'll see pocket passer.

2:24.2

This era, I'm kind of out on those type of guys.

2:28.1

Matt Correll is someone who is a fun watch, but he plays reckless.

2:32.9

He reminds me a lot of Tyler Heineke, Taylor Heineke,

2:35.3

who he watched the commanders already have on the roster, and I've seen a lot of people mock him to Washington. Well, they already have that in Taylor Heineke, a guy that can play, move football a little bit, but is reckless and will miss time. You don't want to draft that in the first round and Howell, to me, reminds me a lot of Baker Mayfield.

2:53.6

And everything he does, he's probably a little bit missed time. You don't want to draft that in the first round. And Howell, to me, reminds me a lot

2:52.0

of Baker Mayfield. And everything he does, he's probably a little bit more mobile than Baker.

2:56.4

And we saw that this year, had over 800 yards rushing. So he was running the heck out of the

3:00.2

football. But someone that, you know, his deep ball accuracy to me is a little bit inconsistent.
