Welcome into No Punt Intended, presented by Club Fantasy. I'm your host, Joe Zollo. Back for another week of the best and worst picks in your fantasy football drafts. This week, rounds nine through 12, we're talking best and worst values here in some very critical rounds, where you can find some late round talent that will either most certainly be on your roster all year, because you found a little gem late in the game, or they're off your roster in four weeks, because they're absolute dog shit and you don't want them anymore. So there's one of two things that could happen with all these players. We're going to help you find the gems in all. We're going to help you find the needle in the haystack, pretty much. Let's get into it, if it wants to play.
Welcome in to No Punt Intended, presented by Club Fantasy. I'm your host, Joe Zollo. Josh Ryan, Trio, back for another week.

**Ryan** (1:15)
Yes.

**Joe Zollo** (1:15)
In the words of Josh, I didn't know you were gonna be on this show, directed at me.

**Ryan** (1:19)
I did, so it worked out.

**Joe Zollo** (1:23)
Good.

**Josh Ryan** (1:23)
You're not the only one with a crazy work schedule, Joe. I forget a lot of things these days.

**Ryan** (1:28)
I just been working this week, so it's been rough for me too.

**Joe Zollo** (1:32)
Yeah.
I'd like to argue, I have the craziest of the three, but hey, you know what? We all live lives.

**Ryan** (1:37)
I definitely have the easiest, except for me. Well, I have the easiest regardless, but it actually gets intense for these next seven weeks.

**Joe Zollo** (1:47)
Good. Well, like and subscribe on YouTube. If you're on Polar Tiffy, any of the podcast platform, be sure to follow Super Chat. You don't need it, but if you do feel so inclined, please use it and then Discord links dropping in the chat here in a second. All right. 2026 ADP values.
Normally, I have more to talk about forehand, but there's no NFL news, so absolutely nothing. Like not even not even peeps out of anywhere. George Pickens is something today where he's playing on the franchise tag.

**Josh Ryan** (2:21)
That's we all knew that was going to be.

**Joe Zollo** (2:23)
Yeah, that's that's it. Like there's there's not much happening. So in the dead zone, we talk the best and worst values here for fantasy football. We're starting in round nine. A reminder for those that have not watched the previous ones or listen to the previous ones, how this works is we pull the best ball ADP from Underdog. Why we use Underdog? It is July 15th at the time of this show. If you're drafting in your redraft leagues on July 15th, please call the gambling hotline, turn off your polymarket account. You need help.
Round nine.

**Josh Ryan** (3:03)
We're all degenerates here.

**Joe Zollo** (3:05)
Just go on.

**Ryan** (3:06)
Just run there.

**Joe Zollo** (3:07)
Trude, if you have a polymarket or Kalashii account, you're a degenerate. I don't even care.
Even if you just have it, you never even gambled. If you have it, you're a degenerate.

**Ryan** (3:16)
I agree, but also, man, with the way it seems, the government is using that to just manipulate everything. If you have the right connections, you could be a millionaire right now.

**Joe Zollo** (3:27)
Listen, there's two things. One, I just saw you can bet on delay times at airports, I believe.

**Ryan** (3:32)
Oh, hilarious.

**Joe Zollo** (3:33)
Which, I mean, the amount I travel. But another one, there's banana ball props on there. I'm sitting there, I'm like, there's only one.
It's, will Adam Wainwright make an appearance at the St. Louis game this year?

**Ryan** (3:52)
Okay.

**Joe Zollo** (3:53)
And I'm sitting, I'm like, we, if we get him, we're the only people that know.

**Ryan** (3:59)
They do not care that this, what you're about to describe happens. I watched an entire special about it.

**Joe Zollo** (4:05)
No, they don't. I will, I'll just flood it, say yes, and then make a shit ton of money.

**Josh Ryan** (4:10)
So, yeah, but then you might risk losing your job with banana ball at that point.

**Joe Zollo** (4:16)
There's no, what do you mean? I'm just, I'm just trading.

**Josh Ryan** (4:19)
No, but I mean like that's in a way like insider trading because you know the information.

**Joe Zollo** (4:24)
It's not insider trading.

**Ryan** (4:26)
Yeah, it's not trading. It's not. This is actually, I'm not going to get into the whole politics of this, but I will just say.
