When you have a better laptop like the Dell XPS powered by Intel Core, it feels better.

**Andy Holloway** (0:46)
With thin and light design, it feels smooth.

**SPEAKER_2** (0:51)
With a touchscreen, it feels fast and precise. And with long lasting battery life, it feels like non-stop energy.

**Andy Holloway** (1:00)
Yeah, that's definitely better.
Built for those who want better. The Dell XPS.

**SPEAKER_2** (1:06)
Built for you.

Welcome to the Fantasy Footballers Podcast with your hosts, Andy Holloway, Jason Moore and Mike Wright.

**Andy Holloway** (2:07)
We're back again.

**SPEAKER_2** (2:09)
Check it.

**Andy Holloway** (2:10)
I mean, we're back every day. I know. We never leave.

**SPEAKER_2** (2:13)
We even have an extra episode this week. Oh, that's right.

**Jason Moore** (2:17)
We have a very important extra episode hitting on Saturday.

**Mike Wright** (2:20)
A very special edition.

**Andy Holloway** (2:23)
Today is Thursday, August 27th. We have a Mock Draft show today. We have the Fantasy Football Time Machine tomorrow. And then we have a bonus episode of this show that will hit your feeds. You can watch it Saturday. It is our live show here in Phoenix.
800 foot clan members strong attending that live event, our bold prediction show, tons of special stuff happening out there. And I mean, it's going to be quite enjoyable.

**SPEAKER_2** (2:55)
It's going to be crazy.

**Mike Wright** (2:56)
It's going to be quite enjoyable.

**Andy Holloway** (2:58)
Listen, what popped into my head, Mike, was we have said before at one of the live shows, Andrew Luck retired.

**Mike Wright** (3:04)
Yes.

**Andy Holloway** (3:04)
And I want to give you context for that moment. So we had the show prepared. Andrew Luck retires literally while we're in the green room about to go out.

**Mike Wright** (3:12)
We thought it was a bit, just that we were like, oh man.

**Jason Moore** (3:15)
Are we getting got?

**Mike Wright** (3:16)
Someone got got so bad.

**Andy Holloway** (3:19)
Do you want to know what that would be equivalent to today? That would be Joe Burrow retiring at our live show.
That is the age equivalent to Andrew Luck's. Are you calling your shot? No, no. The Reaper does not come for Joe Burrow. But that was the equivalent.

**Mike Wright** (3:32)
He's not the fancy retiree.

**Andy Holloway** (3:35)
No, not currently.

**Jason Moore** (3:37)
You also killed the Queen, but you did.

**Andy Holloway** (3:40)
Yeah, I mean, they're a bit... You really did. Well, I mean, when you comp anybody to somebody in their late, probably, what was she, 80, 90 years old? I mean, your odds are there that something might happen in the near term, but no, we're so excited. It's gonna be so much fun. So much going on, like I said, a Mock Draft show today.
We have some news to catch you up on.
I don't think we have any catastrophic injury news to share with you today, which is nice. In fact, we have some of the opposite. Some players getting off the pop.

**Mike Wright** (4:12)
All right.

**Andy Holloway** (4:13)
We are less than two weeks until kickoff. Wow, yeah, two weeks from yesterday. That's wild.

**Mike Wright** (4:18)
Yeah, Wednesday night.

**Andy Holloway** (4:20)
So this weekend and next weekend, Labor Day weekend, are the two biggest draft days of the year. And if you're not prepped up and you're not ready, The Ultimate Draft Kit's available now at ultimatedraftkit.com.
Let's get it going.

**SPEAKER_2** (4:39)
Leader of the Pack, presented by PetSmart.

**Andy Holloway** (4:44)
Well, this has been a fun debate each and every week, guys. We're talking through unsettled situations, committees at the wide receiver running back position and where we think the fantasy value's going to end up. I mean, we did the Dolphins, I believe, last week, right? We talked through that mess of a wide receiver room a little upbeat.
