Dan Patrick: “It feels like you win these leagues later in the draft. So take us later in the draft; give us some players that if our audience hasn’t done their league draft yet, they’re at least aware of.”
Matthew Berry: “How deep do you wanna go?”
DP: “Let’s go semi-deep.”
Berry: “I’ll rattle off some late round running backs and wide receivers. These are literally like your last couple picks. Off the top of my head in no particular order – I love Greg Dortch in Arizona. Jalen McMillan in Tampa Bay seems to have won the third wide receiver job there. Josh Downs is someone I liked a lot in Indianapolis last year. He’s a little banged up to start the year but I think there’s some real nice potential. I don’t know when it’s going to happen, but at some point this year Luke McCaffrey is going to be a thing for the Washington Commanders. No one is talking about Darnell Mooney in Atlanta. They’re going to be throwing a lot with Kirk Cousins in Atlanta. Everyone is talking about Kyle Pitts, Drake London, and Bijon Robinson, but Darnell Mooney is an interesting late round flier. The Buffalo guys: Khalil Shakir, Curtis Samuel needs to get healthy, but those are some late round wide receiver.
At running back, I think Braelon Allen is really interesting in New York. I would argue the same for Ray Davis in Buffalo. Bucky Irving in Tampa Bay in terms of some late round running backs."
