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

**Andy Holloway** (1:08)
Welcome in.
Saturday edition, The Fantasy Footballers. Gentlemen, do you realize one week from today-

**Mike Wright** (1:23)
I was just looking, when is the Hall of Fame game?

**Andy Holloway** (1:25)
Well, I was going to say August 1st is one week from today, which is the beginning of-

**Mike Wright** (1:31)
The beginning.

**Andy Holloway** (1:32)
The beginning of the beginning. It is the beginning of our five days a week episodes.

**Jason Moore** (1:36)
August 6th is the Hall of Fame game.

**Andy Holloway** (1:39)
Cardinals, right?

**SPEAKER_1** (1:41)
I think maybe Cardinals Saints? Cardinals Panthers. Oh, Panthers.

**Mike Wright** (1:44)
The new look, Arizona Cardinals.

**Andy Holloway** (1:47)
The funny thing is, is you will probably get a lot of Carson Beck in that game.
That's not that funny though. That's more sad.

**Jason Moore** (1:53)
I can tell you, I won't watch it.

**Andy Holloway** (1:55)
Yes, you will.

**Jason Moore** (1:56)
I don't think I've ever watched a Hall of Fame game in my life.

**Andy Holloway** (1:58)
We watched a little bit of them.

**Jason Moore** (2:01)
Yeah, like you turn it on and you watch a throw or two, and then you're like...

**Andy Holloway** (2:04)
I mean, football's football, man.

**Mike Wright** (2:05)
Jacoby reported, so...

**Andy Holloway** (2:08)
Just hasn't been paid yet. His agent said that they're working on it.

**Mike Wright** (2:12)
They agree.

**Andy Holloway** (2:13)
It's him.

**Mike Wright** (2:13)
At least, at the time of this recording, they still just agree there should be more money, but they can't agree on how much.

**Andy Holloway** (2:19)
They actually told him to check under his pillow every night at camp. And at some point, the contract fairy is going to come in.

**Mike Wright** (2:27)
Well, you're going to wake up. There's going to be a crisp Andrew Jackson under that pillow for you.

**Andy Holloway** (2:33)
There's a lot more than that coming to rookie quarterback Fernando Mendoza, who finally signed his deal.
That was news we got earlier this week. What is going on today? Our final divisional breakdown episode, NFC West.

**Mike Wright** (2:50)
It's the other clue that we are about to be full go.

**Andy Holloway** (2:56)
Yeah.

**Mike Wright** (2:56)
When the divisions are done, it's time to really, really play fancy football.

**Andy Holloway** (3:01)
The Ultimate Draft Kit available right now. If you want to head over there, check it out. The mock draft tool now apart, ultimatedraftkit.com. The draft analyzer went live at the beginning of this month. You can get breakdowns to all of your drafts coming up and how we review them, where your strengths and weaknesses are, things like that. And if you're an Ultimate Football Clan member, you get everything all season long. Quick question of the day says this, any tips for how you handle training camp hype and news?
I mean, I will tell you right now, we have a Slack channel. It is the longest named Slack channel that we have. It is camp-highlights-and-hype-train, because we are always sharing things going on in camp. But what types of things are you looking for in that news that you care about and what do you ignore?

**Jason Moore** (3:48)
I think the first most important thing on how to handle camp news is to assume that there's another site. Don't just read something and go, you live your life. Yeah, sure. I mean, there's two lines of thinking. One is, confirm all your biases. Yes. Anything that comes out that is what you thought, you just know that you are going to be right. But this time of year, like a perfect example very, very recently in the last, I think, two weeks, there was reporting that David Montgomery was, and that the Houston Texans viewed David Montgomery as a true three down workhorse back, and he is going to get all the workload. And within the same exact timeframe, a news report came out saying that him and Woody Marks are going to split the carries.
