Summary

Pat Daugherty, John Daigle, Denny Carter and Matt Stroup highlight eight players we are targeting right now in every fantasy draft. We look at how the landscape has improved for Clyde Edwards-Helaire after a disappointing rookie season, why Michael Thomas should return to form after a disaster of a 2019 campaign, and whether Courtland Sutton can overcome abysmal QB play as he comes back from injury. Plus, DJ Moore is flashing star potential, Amari Cooper could finally have a ceiling season, and Kyle Pitts is set up for success in a post- (we think) Julio Jones Atlanta — but is his ADP already too high?

0:00.0	Hey everyone, welcome to a good football show. I am Matt Straup and today we will be bringing
0:21.5	you our guys for the month of May. Some of our favorite fantasy draft targets as of
0:26.1	right now. We did this last month with a list of eight players, so check that out if you missed
0:30.2	it. We looked at names, including Zeke Elliott, AJ Brown, Cam Acres, Terry McLoren, and others.
0:35.4	And today we are coming at you with an entirely new group of eight. I'm joined by John
0:40.4	Dagle, Danny Carter, and Pat Dirty. Fellas, as you know, I'm a basketball guy who occasionally
0:47.5	puts on a football helmet. And the NBA playoffs are being full-stried here. Since last week,
0:53.6	through baseball and to the trash can, for not understanding how to have fun, I wanted to take
0:57.2	a poll on where you guys are with NBA playoffs. Like, love, hate, or don't care. Where are we at?
1:03.8	Big, big fan. Probably the most operatic sporting event in America is the NBA playoffs. Just because
1:11.2	you know what it's like when you play basketball with your friends, it's very easy to get
1:15.1	testy playing basketball. And so you can see how over the course, the dynamics of a seven-game
1:20.7	series, how they like really don't like each other. I feel like that manifests itself more
1:26.4	like the NBA playoffs and like any other sporting event in America. So I love the high drama.
1:32.6	And I must say, I'm an NBA thought leader. Nate McMillan may be when the game is in the balance.
1:39.4	And like literally the game is clearly being won or lost. You should put in your best player
1:43.3	instead of sticking to a pre. Don't don't get me started. Please don't.
1:47.4	I was admittedly a bigger fan of the bubble playoffs, especially knowing they all had beefs
1:54.4	and went back to the same hotel room with just the 80 people and had no choice but to confront one
1:59.2	another. Also using their hotel rooms as a wine storage was pretty interesting. But overall,
2:05.4	I'm still kind of, I mean, it's the dumb accent. I'm still kind of a maverick fan. It's of course
2:09.1	where I grew up from. Having said that, it's interesting because I don't know if this has happened
