00:00All right, our comeback player of the year.
00:01I say our because I think George and I may see the same here.
00:04I peaked a little bit.
00:05Sorry, guys.
00:06J.K. Dobbins is the comeback player of the year.
00:09It was just the best choice, George.
00:10I mean, you and I fought the same here on this one.
00:13He had nine touchdowns, 905 yards, 153 receiving yards.
00:18He was the bona fide comeback player of the year
00:21halfway through the season, and then unfortunately got hurt.
00:24He was never the same.
00:25Let's just be honest.
00:25He wasn't.
00:26Hopefully, he can get back to being
00:29who he was in the beginning of the season next year.
00:33But George, I'll be skeptical.
00:34I'm just being honest.
00:35I will probably be skeptical of this,
00:37just because unfortunately for him,
00:38and you don't want to ever say this about somebody
00:40at roof room, but he's just been severely injury prone.
00:43But if you drafted him, you got a lot more
00:47than you could have asked for.
00:48The yards, maybe not as much, but nine touchdowns.
00:50That's a pretty big number for a running back these days.
00:55Listen, he's had a lot of injuries in his career.
00:57It was good to see him come back and have a good 2 3rds
01:01of the season, 3 quarters.
01:02I mean, I know I had him in a couple of leagues.
01:03He was great for me.
01:04So glad to have him, especially as late as I got him.
01:08This award, I thought, was one of the toughest ones, Craig,
01:10because he was the standout guy.
01:12I mean, I know people, Sam Donald,
01:15what did he come back from?
01:16Being on a bad team?
01:18I mean, Joe Burrow, okay, he came back from a thumb injury
01:21that cost him a couple of games last year, really?
01:25That's the guys you want to vote for here?
01:25No, I need guys who are a little bigger injuries than that.
01:29So I think he was sort of the, to me, the easiest choice.
01:31I didn't think it was anybody else, so I took J.K. Dobbins.
01:36I hope he can come back again, although like you, Craig,
01:39I kind of have my doubts.
01:41Yeah, I would agree.
01:42And probably on my, not on my not draft list,
01:45but by my skeptical list, I guess that's fair.
01:48Okay, so I do have a no draft list for this guy.
01:53I'm sorry to say, and by the way,
01:55I know he had a big catch in the game against Philly,
01:57but George, even the first half of that game
02:00between the Rams and Eagles,
02:02I don't know what his contract situation is.
02:04I probably should have checked before the show,
02:05but Cooper Cup, would you touch this guy next season, George?
02:09I mean, I know he got a hundred targets,
02:11but this is not a high percentage of catches for targets.
02:1367, 710 yards and six touchdowns.
02:17There are folks are going to look at this
02:18that didn't draft Cooper Cup next season and go,
02:21oh, you know, maybe he'll better.
02:23I don't think so, man, George.
02:24I think, gosh, end of the line, is that extreme with him?
02:30Maybe, but his best seasons are behind him, George.
02:34Nakua is the guy there.
02:35I could see them easily replacing him
02:37with Demarcus Robinson or even someone else.
02:40I'm not sure what went on with Cup,
02:43but he did not catch the 75% of his 100 targets.
02:48And he had some zeros in fantasy, man.
02:51To me, he's a big flop.
02:53Oh, he's definitely, I don't think he's the biggest flop,
02:55but he's a big flop, yeah.
02:57I wonder, Craig, he's another guy
02:59that's been hurt a lot throughout his career.
03:01Has it just caught up to him?
03:03Yeah, is he not going to be that guy anymore?
03:05I think if you're an optimist,
03:06your best case scenario is that he's hurt now,
03:08and then he'll recover during the off season
03:09and beat Cooper Cup again.
03:11I think that's an optimist viewpoint,
03:12because I think it's a combination of both.
03:14I think if all the time has caught up to him,
03:16I think the injuries are getting to him,
03:18but I think he'll be better next year,
03:20but I'll be very wary.
03:23He's a guy I'll be, if I'm drafting,
03:24oh, Craig took Cup, good, let Craig have him.
03:26You know, I don't have to worry about it.
03:28You know, that's why, because he's a guy,
03:30I don't want three Cooper Cups on my team,
03:32because you're going to eat it.
03:33You're going to eat it here.
03:34I chose Tyreek Yelp.
03:35He was, Craig, he was the guy I was touting
03:38as the number one overall pick this year,
03:40and that didn't go well at all, okay?
03:44Yeah, I plotted it was because two had got hurt,
03:45no doubt, but even with two was healthy,
03:48the numbers weren't there,
03:49and if two can't take seven step drops anymore,
03:51because they want to protect them from the concussions,
03:53and he wants out, or he doesn't want out,
03:55this is a mess here.
03:56So I have Tyreek Hill as my flop here.
03:58That didn't, I wish I could take that pick back.
