**SPEAKER_7** (1:40)
Welcome in.

**Jason Moore** (1:48)
I thought in honor of that intro you were going to give us a like. Welcome in.

**SPEAKER_7** (1:53)
It's me, Patrick.

**Jason Moore** (1:56)
Yeah. Look, I get it. It's old, it's tired, but it's still funny to me.

**Andy Holloway** (2:01)
It's not easy recovering from an ACL.

**Mike Wright** (2:04)
That's pretty good.

**SPEAKER_8** (2:05)
That is actually very good.

**Mike Wright** (2:08)
That's pretty good, Patrick Holmes.

**Andy Holloway** (2:10)
Welcome into the podcast. Mike The Fantasy Hitman is here, Jason Moore, present, accounted for. I'm Andy Holloway and we are back. It is an exciting time in the world of fantasy football.

**Mike Wright** (2:23)
Oh, man. If you were on social medias yesterday. Holy crap.

**Andy Holloway** (2:30)
Well, yeah, we can-

**SPEAKER_1** (2:31)
What a ride.

**Andy Holloway** (2:32)
Let's talk about the Jeanty situation. The news that we've gotten since the Red Alert has been positive for Ashton Jeanty. However, I don't know what situ- I mean, there were so many people in the middle of drafts.

**Jason Moore** (2:48)
Yeah.

**Andy Holloway** (2:49)
Or that had drafted and had regrets with Jeanty that were drafting and didn't know where to take Jeanty or Mike Washington.

**Jason Moore** (2:56)
I mean, we should at least set it up if we're gonna talk about it. There's some people who probably don't know what it is. Okay.

**Andy Holloway** (3:02)
Well, I'll press pause and then we'll talk all the way through it.
Lots going on. Almost too much. Almost too much going on. But we do have a UDK for Life giveaway today. We will be live on YouTube, youtube.com/thefantasyfootballers for a live stream.

**SPEAKER_7** (3:20)
Yes, Jason.

**SPEAKER_1** (3:22)
That's right. Yeah. Make sure you join us.

**Andy Holloway** (3:24)
6 PM Eastern, 3 PM Pacific, giving away a signed Jamar Chase jersey as well as the UDK for Life, and maybe we'll do some other stuff. We'll see. But we'll be answering your questions. So you've got drafts coming up. I did a little poll this weekend, and it looked like above 75 percent of people still had their main drafts in the future, although a lot of people did do some drafts this weekend. A lot of you are in lots of leagues, so they're probably all over the place. I have one right now for the FFT Open that I am in the middle of doing. I took Pukunakua at the sixth spot.

**SPEAKER_1** (3:55)
I mean, that's great getting him at sixth if he plays.

**Andy Holloway** (3:59)
But we'll be live today and give away the UDK for life. The way you are eligible to win that is to have purchased the UDK, the ultimate draft kit, our number one draft day tool with all of our tiered rankings and 100 plus player profile videos. We've got tools for inside the draft, marking players, sleepers, breakouts, busts and values that we all agree on, and probably like- Injury stuff.

**Jason Moore** (4:23)
Look, injuries are an important thing to know. We got our dude, certified PT, Matthew Betts. He gives his thoughts on what's going on with certain injuries.

**Andy Holloway** (4:33)
No, we were all over that Jeanty situation too. We were updating that as it was happening.

**Jason Moore** (4:37)
Best we could.

**SPEAKER_3** (4:38)
Yeah.

**SPEAKER_1** (4:39)
I was like, what do we do? The team took a knee, said prayers, had a big-

**Andy Holloway** (4:47)
Successful prayers.

**SPEAKER_3** (4:49)
Right.

**SPEAKER_1** (4:49)
Yeah. Thank goodness they did. Imagine if he didn't.
