Summary

This week the boys get into their top NFL fantasy sleepers – but first, they start things off by recapping the dramatic ending of the NBA season, with the Bucks’ first title in 50 years. Theo claims he’s already over the Suns’ defeat, and the three heap some deserving praise on Giannis, before discussing his place in the “all time greats” conversation.  Then they get into fantasy sleepers – starting at Tight End, the guys discuss the Patriots’ wealth of riches with both Hunter Henry and Jonnu Smith.   Jumping into the Running Back convo, Theo makes the case for James Conner to have a breakout season in his new home on the Cardinals, Matt steps up for Mike Davis, and Blaiden argues in favor of Wayne Gallman.   At Wide Receiver, Matt proclaims his love for Robby Anderson, and Blaiden questions why DeSean Jackson is ranked so low. That discussion leads to a conversation about the fantastic depth at the WR position in general.  Then we come to sleeper QB’s. Matt stands up for Joe Burrow, the guys try to figure out the Deshaun Watson situation, and the group poses the question: Is Matt Ryan a sleeper? None of Theo’s Quarterback sleepers will probably play much, if at all, but that’s okay. (Finally he settles on actual starter Danny Dimes.) And Matt humbly requests that you consider Cam Newton.  Listen to the end for an announcement about some very fun things happening later this summer!  ⏰ CHAPTERS ⏰  (03:42) Theo’s reaction to his Suns losing in the NBA Finals  (05:22) How the Suns *could* have pulled it off  (11:35) Giving Giannis and the Bucks due credit  (15:17) Is Giannis in the GOAT convo someday?  (17:22) The inaugural Stay Hot Fantasy Football League  (18:35) Diving into Sleeper TE’s  (23:43) Jonnu Smith vs Hunter Henry – which of the Pats new TE’s will shine brighter?  (25:23) Sleeper RB’s and Theo’s case for James Conner  (28:15) Matt argues in favor of Mike Davis  (31:10) Blaiden makes some solid points in favor of Wayne Gallman  (34:49) Gauging the prospects of former college teammates Michael Carter and Javonte Williams  (39:07) Jumping into sleeper WRs, and Matt’s love for Robby Anderson  (44:11) Blaiden wonders why DeSean Jackson is ranked so low (there are many reasons)  (46:56) Discussing the depth at the WR position overall  (50:35) Switching to sleeper QB’s, and Matt’s case for Joe Burrow  (54:51) The Deshaun Watson conundrum  (57:34) Matt unsurprisingly stans Cam Newton  (59:48) The pros and cons of Drew Lock  (1:03:15) Can Matt Ryan be considered a sleeper?  (1:04:35) The guys realize that none of Theo’s sleeper QB picks are going to see playing time  (1:06:01) Theo settles on a sleeper QB who will actually see the field: Daniel Jones  (1:07:08) Wrapping up the sleepers, plus some housekeeping and a very fun announcement    🔊 LISTEN ON 🔊     ► iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/stay-hot-nfl-podcast/id1564148153     ► Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2hT7l2zzoEeYWu4o10z2dW?si=mBoji4FkSIS2fk47pVYpOA     ✅ SUBSCRIBE ✅ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsb3X5NchEEcig9rNGa2J2g     🔥 STAY HOT OFFICIAL TIK TOK 🔥    ► FOLLOW: https://www.tiktok.com/@stayhotpod?    Follow Matt:     ► Twitter: https://twitter.com/sponhourm     ► TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@sponhour     ► YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC58aA81mfftO6s8DIU7kCYQ     Follow Blaiden:     ► Twitter: https://twitter.com/blaiden     ► TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@blaidenk     ► YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1PBcGDMaxyX0ugABTMs0dw     Follow Theo:   ► Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheoAsh1   ► TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@theoashnfl   ► YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCu0Mb-XH1n7IzeN0GvpKYJA   Follow Blue Wire:   ► Twitter: https://twitter.com/bluewirepods   ► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bluewirehq   ► Website: https://bluewirepods.com  #StayHotPodcast #BlueWire    Learn more about your ad choices.

My sleeper is mostly, I don't know, with quarterback, it's hard just because there's so few of them. So, like, I think maybe Mariotta will come in and, like, be a guy or Tase him or maybe Watson is a guy that you stash and bang on the street. You have only said players were not playing. Well, that's sleepers. It's like, back up. What am I going to say? You got to say some of the big guys. Quarterbacks.
