Welcome back. It's Beyond the Box Score. I'm Dan Schneier. That's Jacob and Gibbs. You might have seen us earlier today on the FFU main show. Jacob and I did our rookie dynasty gem show. And now we're here again on Beyond the Box Corps. We're going to cover a lot today. It's another one where you're going to get a lot of content. And that content starts or in different order. Then don't go by this order. It's going to be a different order. We're going to do our biggest fantasy football ballers. We did our Rogers on Tuesday. We're going to cover every NFC team,

0:38.4

what they did, their actions and inactions and what that tells us from the draft. We did

0:42.0

aFC on Tuesday. And then we're going to work through some of the toughest players to rank for

0:46.4

26 season long redraft leagues. I can't wait to get to that part of the show, Jacob.

0:51.5

But how are you doing today, my friend? And how's your little Thursday going? It's rainy out here. Beautiful Thursday here in the Midwest. Thanks for

0:59.7

asking Dan. Thanks for getting unfrozen there. We started off the show Frozen right away.

1:05.5

It's hilarious. It literally, it's like as soon as you stop talking, you unfreeze. I don't

1:09.4

understand why. But, you know, the Beyond the Box Corps people love it. They love the frozen dance stills. We get some fun ones there. That's true. But yeah, good Thursday, excited to talk through the NFC side of things today. Got some good feedback on that last episode. Did that help people to kind of think about everything on a team level.

1:29.0

So we're going to do that at the end of the show and then talk about some some fallers.

1:35.5

You know, we did the risers, talking about some of the players whose value is down after the draft,

1:39.9

which is not as fun of a conversation, but also won't be as long of a conversation

1:44.7

because we had a bunch of winners and not as many followers.

1:46.8

It was weirdly, maybe it's just, I guess, because the draft sucks,

1:49.6

but I also think that the landing spots worked out pretty well

1:52.5

for fantasy football purposes.

1:54.7

So, like, as I've been doing my 2026 rankings,

1:59.0

I feel like we're really deep at quarterback. We're really deep at running back. And pretty deep at receiver, dude, honestly. I think I had Mackay Lemon at like wide receiver of 40 or something. And I was like, I feel pretty good about Lemon. Like, honestly, if he's able to get into a situation where it's just him and Devante Smith is the top two targets there. I could see it being a decent rookie season.

2:19.3

Have you noticed that he's ahead of Cardinal Tate and Jordan Tyson and rookie of the year odds?

2:24.2

Yes, he is.

2:25.0

Yeah, and I think that partially is just because he's going to be playing on a better team.

2:28.6

And there's a better chance to win, things like that.

2:30.5

But I will say this.
