This is an I-Heart podcast.

Guaranteed Human. Welcome in, everybody, to Fantasy Pros. This is the Fantasy Football Podcast. And it's me, Joey P. Joe Pee, Zipia. We've got another mock draft show for you today. Things are moving. There's buzz all happening everywhere. We've got not one, but two rounds. And, of course, to help us make the picks for today's draft, D-Bro, Derek Brown, the King of Brows, my Patty Cakes, Pat Fitzmorest, and somebody very smart in the room today that we are very excited that we could join us. He comes all the way from Fantasy Points. We love the work he does over there. Theo Greminger is joining us as our special guest. Theo, it is great to see you, my friend. I appreciate

you hanging out with us today, making the picks with the boys, and then pretty much you're getting on a jet plane in like 24 hours to get out of Dodge. I know what that life is like when you got to record a million shows before you leave. Are you up to 70 or 80? How many are you doing here before you're out the door? I'm not I'm not 100% I'm trying to cram in a few but

there's some moving are you up to 70 or 80? How many are you doing here before you're out the door?

I'm not 100%. I'm trying to cram in a few, but there's some moving parts to it. But yeah, really excited to chop it up with you guys and do this mock draft. This should be a lot of fun. Patty's here. D-Bros here. Everybody's here. Make sure you're always here to subscribe to the channel. Drop your comments below. we love having you here.

And if you love football,

and I know you do,

we just recorded a new episode of The Tailgate, Andrew Erickson, Derek Brown, and myself. We talked about some of the sleeper guys in the NFL draft that we like. So they may or may not be taken today. We'll see. Also on top of that, the latest Kirk Cousins news that dropped, we broke it all down for you, the Puka Nakua stuff. We talked about that. And we talked about which of the retread quarterbacks could have the best path to a Super Bowl la Sam Darnold last year. So if you want all of that, go right to YouTube, subscribe to Tailgate. Again, you can search in there, Tailgate NFL. It'll pop right up. You'll see our beautiful faces, or at least my beautiful face, and then Derek's face next to it. And then subscribe to the channel there. And of course, we love having you for all things NFL here on the podcast. So, gentlemen, we've done this a million times already, and we're going to do it again because, well, Fernando Mendoza still seems like the number one overall pick. Theo, I'm going to start with you here on this one. Just get your Fernando take because that's what we'd like to do. We get the guest making their Fernando take. Do you think in any way, shape, or form this Kirk Cousins deal changes any dynamic here? Not just about maybe I'm not starting, but could the Raiders even entertain moving out of one for a

bunch of picks this year and maybe next year for a quarterback? Or is it just Fernando? No, I think they're

completely locked in. And I think playing the next year game, especially when you have the first

overall pick is a dangerous game to play, even if we think there's going to be a number of quarterbacks.

Fernando Mendoza looks really locked in.

Big fan of him coming in at 236 pounds at the NFL Combine.

We thought he was going to be maybe lighter than 225 shows he's really been putting in the

work, some impressive stuff from Indiana Pro Day.

I think they're completely locked in.

The Clint Kubiak hire combined with Fernando Mendoza, he's in a really good spot. Cousins gives them a solid backup quarterback and somebody who I think Mendoza can learn from. And if they really want to slow play him, give Cousins a couple starts to start out the season. I don't anticipate that, but I guess that could be technically in the wheelhouse. But I think Mendoza starts game one

in the NFL. And I think he's going to be pretty good. All right. So if you want the Kirk Cousins take from Derek Brown, which is very interesting, go to the tailgate. Patty, anything to add real quick after the Kirk Cousins news this morning that dropped? Or are we just like Fernando Mania still no matter what we uh i just find it amusing that we know how much fernando likes to uh you know give a shout

out to god endomania still no matter what we uh i just find it amusing that we know how much fernando

likes to uh you know give a shout out to god in post game interviews and we know kirk cousins is a

good god-fearing man so it's just kind of funny that the most pious cuby in the league is located in

las vegas so question cuby room that is With both of them with Vegas, who gets a neck tattoo first? Ooh, I'm going to go for. That's a good one. Going to go Fernando. That's fair. Just because his teammates, you know, I'm just a good sport. And gee whiz, you know, I didn't throw for 300 yards today. I said I would. So I'm going to go and get that neck tattoo.
