It's a Monday, which means it's best ball day for myself and Andrew Erickson here on the Fantasy Pros channel. I'm Tom Strachan. Of course, you know, Andrew Erickson. Today, we are drafting in the FFPC $35 entry best ball contest with $100,000 up top. And Andrew, there's no time for sitting around because you've already made your first pick. You're sitting at the 105 in this draft. I'm at the 112. We'll get to all the comments as many as we can. We're going to take a lot of questions to talk all about training camp today. But with the 105 in a super flex draft, I know where you're going as often as possible. Where did you go?
Tom, this is our third super flex draft that we drafted. One team that we drafted together, one team that we drafted head to head. And the constant theme with all those drafts has Drake May at one, Drake May at three. So picking here at the 105 spot, it only felt natural to, all right, let's get another Drake May team here built here. So at the 105 pick, an easy selection for me, Drake May, a quarterback that I believe could finish as the QB one overall and potentially dethrone Josh Allen this year.
Yeah, well, it's going to take something special to dethrone Josh Allen. Obviously, the usual characters are in the mix in this draft.
How do Tom and Andrew introduce the FFPC Superflex $100K best ball contest and draft setup?
Going quickly through ADP before it gets to me, we are using the Fantasy Pros Draft Assistant. So if you've used FFPC before and this looks unfamiliar, that's why we believe it's a better way to draft and we'll talk more about that as we go. But Jameer Gibbs goes over 101 to my good friend, Chris Cash. Then Bijan Robinson. This isn't overly unusual. Like we've seen plenty of the running backs going before the quarterbacks this year, because in the second round, you get quite a nice pod of quarterbacks who come back to that end. Then Josh Allen goes, Jamar Chase is the wide receiver one. Drake May to Mr. Erickson, Puka Nakua, Jaden Daniels, Lamar Jackson, CMC. And I've still got a couple of picks before me.
Jaden Daniels going ahead of Lamar Jackson. I think that's the first time I've seen that this year. Andrew, have you seen it in many drafts?
No, I have not. But I do understand the thought process behind looking at Lamar versus Jane Daniels, two mobile quarterbacks who's going to end up running more. I do think that that is really going to kind of take a big place in how things shake out. So I think Jane Daniels can achieve an elite ceiling this season. I do get concerned about the weaponry behind Terry McLaurin. Maybe they signed Stefan Diggs. That kind of changes that conversation. But I do think that Jane Daniels going at least in round one, one spot ahead of Lamar. I don't think it's like totally. I think they're in the same tier. So if you were drafting in a lot of different teams, I do think it makes sense to get a little bit more. Try to balance your portfolio a little bit.
Yeah, I mean, I'm a Ravens fan, unapologetic for it, and I think the Lamar's in for a big season, so it's not a move I would do. But here on the turn, I'm going to scoop a little bit of ADP value on JSN, who's fallen. His ADP is typically 903 in this format, and he falls to me at the 12, so I'm going to take him there. And then I'm going to take Brock Bowers, who goes as high as the... Tenth spot, typically, sometimes you see them going higher. This is a tight end premium format, so for anyone unfamiliar with the FFPC contest, it is super flex.
