00:03 Let's go down to the next tier here, because after working with you for forever,
00:06 I understand that we make our money in the middle of drafts in that next tier down.
00:12 So let's go now to that next tier down.
00:15 Well, look, this is the tier you have to worry about for Superflex Leagues, right, or Deeper Leagues.
00:19 So at 13, I have Jared Goff, and we already talked last week about Jared Goff,
00:22 that he's going to play the majority of his games indoors, even on the road this year.
00:27 That is a huge thing for Jared Goff, because the numbers just bear that out over time.
00:30 He is much better inside. He is an indoor cat, Jared Goff.
00:33 Justin Herber has gone from a top-10 guy to 14. What an incredible value. I'll take him.
00:38 Tuatunga Vailoa, again, up and down last year. He comes in at 15.
00:42 Now we have the rookies, Caleb Williams and Jaden Daniels.
00:44 Now, I have them back-to-back. I'll take whoever's cheaper,
00:47 and most of the time it's going to be Jaden Daniels,
00:49 who, from a Russian perspective, might end up outscoring Caleb Williams.
00:53 It's just something you have to keep in mind there.
00:55 You have Baker Mayfield, very steady, coming in at 19, behind Trevor Lawrence at 18,
01:00 but you could easily flip-flop them all the way to 20 at Matthew Stafford.
01:03 I feel pretty good. After that, you get to Aaron Rodgers, Deshaun Watson, Gino Smith, and Derek Carr.
01:08 Now, in Superflex Leagues, I don't want to live there with those guys,
01:11 but I do want to bring up Baker Mayfield, because I think last year
01:15 we don't give him enough credit for what he did.
01:17 If you just take away the name Baker Mayfield and all the history of the drama
01:21 and everything that's gone on, the expectations and the failures and the many different teams,
01:24 but just look at the numbers. 4,000 yards last year, 28 touchdowns, 10 interceptions.
01:30 That's a really solid QB2, high-end QB2 season.
01:34 He finished, actually, as QB10 last year, okay?
01:38 So, Baker Mayfield might be a guy you could slide in there at a really good draft value
01:43 as your second quarterback. Is it the sexiest pick, like a Caleb Williams or a Jaden Daniels?
01:48 No, but you know what you're getting with Baker Mayfield,
01:51 and something to keep in mind when you're looking into that second quarterback
01:54 in your Superflex formats for 2024.
