A first look at early rookie drafts.

That's what we're going to talk about today on Stealing Banana Sampengretch.

Find my newsletter at bengretsch.com with me.

As always, is Sean Siegel.

Find all of his work at Rotavizzi. He's doing some incredible draft work.

And Sean, we are both in rookie drafts right now in different leagues that are doing the rookie drafts prior to the NFL draft, which is always a really fun experience. I've been in this league

that I'm doing my draft four since I think 2016.

And I've always really enjoyed this league where we do make the picks prior to knowing

draft capital and all that, which is such a huge part of the equation.

And we have a decent idea of where guys might go, but adds a little layer of I don't know randomness I mean you're

kind of adding a layer of unpredictability where you're you're projecting it but also without

knowing exactly where guys are going to fall sometimes it's fun to kind of make those you know

those picks in the in the third round and the fourth round that are guys that you really like from a profile perspective.

And we don't know yet are going to be day three guys.

We can kind of hope might be day two guys or something.

But I think before we jump into all that, how are you doing?

We haven't talked in a week.

All the listeners got the follow up of our draft from the night before i left on my my road trip which was a little scatterbrained

i hope people weren't too disoriented by those three podcasts that we did but that was a fun draft

and uh yeah it went off on a road trip

and we're just kind of catching up now for the first time in a few not quite two weeks but almost two

weeks so how are you doing good good and it was fun to do that draft we again appreciate all the listeners
