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?
