Mocking Birds (guest: Matthew Freedman)

FantasyPros - Fitz on Fantasy

It’s NFL Draft Week! Joining host Pat Fitzmaurice (@Fitz_FF) is Matthew Freedman (@MattFtheOracle), the director of content at FantasyPros and BettingPros. Matt and Pat preview what we might see in the first round Thursday night. Is Travon Walker going No. 1 overall? Is Kyle Hamilton a top-10 pick? Will we see any quarterbacks in the top 10? Matt talks about his mock draft obsession, and he and Pat discuss some of the NFL Draft bets they’ve made. Matt reveals his favorite WRs in this class, and he and Pat talk about a couple of potential WR landing spots and how they would affect fantasy value.

Matt talks about his low-key Dallas Cowboys fandom and life in Dubuque, Iowa. Matt and Pat dig into ’90s rock, discussing some of their favorite albums from that era, the greatness of Nirvana’s “Unplugged” performance, and their flannel shirt collections. They also compare notes on mutual favorite JuJu Smith-Schuster, tout the upside of 49ers QB Trey Lance, and speculate on how a trade might affect Kadarius Toney’s fantasy value.
