00:00Let's go to New England, the New England Patriots.

00:06A lot of people may not know where New England is, Joe.

00:10I will let you explain the geography because you are their biggest fan.

00:14Let's talk about the Patriots.

00:15Yes, but I'm also a realistic one.

00:18This is not going to be one of the better offenses to invest in.

00:21Sorry folks.

00:22It's just not going to be that doesn't mean you can't invest in it at all.

00:25But the hope is at some point Drake may it takes over the reins.

00:29Jacoby percent is a very capable guy for six weeks, eight weeks,

00:33even an entire season.

00:34If they just want to let Drake may kind of soak it in.

00:38I do like the personality of Drake may to I like the tape.

00:41I like the personality.

00:42I think he's got the right kind of swagger.

00:43I don't think the shadow of Tom Brady is too big for him.

00:46I don't think he cares and it's a couple years now past there.

00:48We've gone through Cam Newton.

00:49We've gone through Mac Jones.

00:51It's all been bad.

00:52So now there's a little bit of hope new coach.

00:55John Mayo to a lot of new here with these New England Patriots,

01:00but I do think it's going to kind of look a little bit like the old

01:02Patriots.

01:03Now the biggest deficit last year.

01:05They did not have an offensive coordinator.

01:07What the hell they were doing.

01:08I don't know get a bunch of defensive guys to call offensive plays

01:13Bill Belichick.

01:13I think I'd finally kind of lost the reins there a little bit.

01:16Now you have somebody with an offensive mind actually calling offensive

01:20plays.

01:20I do think things will improve slightly but only slightly because this is

01:24not a big time scoring offense.

01:26They do have Ramond Ray Stevenson though and Stevenson got paid this

01:30offseason a couple years ago.

01:32He established himself as a running back that I think you want in your

01:34fancy drafts are running back that I think has the ability to have a low

01:40end RB one season if everything broke, right, but I still believe, you

01:45know going as RB 20 off the board that Ramond Ray Stevenson can still

01:50give you something like a thousand yards rushing 400 yards receiving and

01:54the reason why I think that is because he did it in 2022.

01:57And where did that put him for the year?

01:59RB 11 Antonio Gibson.

02:01I don't think is a real thing to be too concerned with.

02:03I think he kind of plays that secondary passing role.

02:06Maybe, you know goes out there in a slot a little bit too.

02:09But to me Ramond Ray Stevenson is the back is the focal point of the

02:13offense.

02:13So even though it's a lackluster offense, it's one that's easy to invest

02:17in because you know the piece it's Stevenson.

02:19It's running the football.

02:20It's playing defense.

02:21It's what they are right now.

02:23Now latent drafts are there is a little value when it comes to the wide

02:25receivers pop Douglas to Mario Douglas is an intriguing guy last year kind

02:30of came on strong explosive to a certain degree something.

02:34They're really lacking in that offense Jalen Polk.

02:37I haven't really got on board with but Javon Baker who actually went after

02:40him.

02:40I think is the more intriguing piece a lot of good buzz on Baker coming out

02:43of camp so far.

02:45That's something to keep an eye on in those 14 team leagues to Mario

02:48Douglas Javon Baker again, not super exciting offenses, but guys that have

02:52opportunity for Target share as the season progresses and in those deeper

02:57formats those 14 team leagues as I'm saying those guys are going to

03:00eventually come into play.

03:01I do believe the rest of it again, not super exciting from the fantasy

03:05standpoint.
