Let's get into the cipher here. News and notes around the NFL schedule came out. We got the Draft next week, and you know, Chris, we're gonna be doing big things. I'm talking to my man, the fantasy executive maybe about coming on on Thursday, little draft special. I'm also talking to my boy who I think maybe following us right now, Joe Pizza. Pizza doing a little collabo, a little black Book Fantasy freestyle collabo, but checking out Alabama linebacker Ruben Foster.
Apparently he failed to combine drug test. Remember he had an incident, an altercation with people at the hospital hospital staff. Maybe this is why. Who knows he failed the drug test? Uh, he's been I've seen him anywhere from like number two to the forty Niners, all the way sliding down to the teams down to the Saints. Potentially more smoke, more smoke screens out of Cleveland. Remember they've been talking about
Myles Garrett, Mitchell Katrabinsky. I'm now hearing that as the coaching staff, Hugh Jackson and the like that want Miles Garrett are all in on him at number one. It's the owners in the front office that think they want to definitely, you know, bang their foot on the table for a quarterback. They tried to do that with Johnny Football a few years ago. Didn't work. They want Mitchell Drabinsky potentially a number one I'm here. Also, the draft day next week is a deadline for the Raiders to
make a deal with Beast Mode Marshawn Lynch. People have been saying that the guy to deal in place, but has not been signed as of yet. As we had to the draft and next next week and then into the draft, I'm gonna profile a different position, so it would obviously like you know your fantasy scores or quarterbacks are running backs are wide outs, and I'm gonna preview every position going into the draft, tell you, guys what you need to know, who's really coming out, whose jobs
might get displaced, things of that nature. But interestingly enough, it's been a disappointing year for offensive lineman in the draft. You know, sometimes you know there's a couple of stud tackles you take out there, you plug in your roster for ten years, and you're happy to protect that blindside. Not the case this year. I'm telling you right now, I'm calling my shot there will not be an offensive tackle or an offensive lineman drafted in the first fifteen
to twenty picks, and that is rare. Okay, guys like Garret Bowls, Ryan Ramcheck, Cam Robinson. I think these guys are going after and after pick twenty next week. But we'll talk about it a little bit more. Texas general manager Rick Smith says he does not feel pressure to draft the quarterback. He says, at some point they'll out of quarterback. I guess t J. Yates is not to move.
Remember they traded brock Osweiler away. There are reports that head coach Bill O'Brien loves Patty Malomes, the quarterback out of Texas Tech. See. I still think if he's available. If Malmes is available there for the Texans at number twenty five, I think that's where they're gonna go. Also, we talked about trade Baite a little bit earlier on this week. Which players could get traded Sheldon richardson, uh, you know, Richard Sherman, Malcolm Butler, at Jordan Matthews to
the list that maybe trade Baite. Remember the Philadelphia Eagles signed Alshan Jeffrey and Tory Smith in the off season. They Stuve zach Ertz there. You know, maybe they're looking to accumulate more draft capital. Jordan Matthews reports indicate could be on the move. Let's keep it the moving though here on the cipher. Oh, the fantasy freestyle. You know, the NFL schedule came out last night, and there's a lot of things I want to talk to you guys
about it. But first of all, I got a poll question up, and so I want to go back into that. The poll question is about the NFL schedule, right, and it's what was the first thing you looked at, maybe for your team. You know, I'm a j et s just in the season fan, So I looked at the rivalry games. When do they play the a f c's rivals? You know what about like any when is the bye? Are there any weird travel trips? Primetime games were on Monday night, Sunday night, Thursday night at all and like,
you know, what are the four last four games? Are there any stretches that are particularly hard or easy? So we got that poll up there right now at spitting Speeds at F and T s Y Radio. I told you, um yesterday I broke scoop that the Patriots would play the Raiders in Mexico City Week eleven. I think this is very interesting. I told you I think the NFL is prepping the Raiders to be a nomadic franchise in two thousand nineteen, right before they go to Las Vegas.
We've been talked about this, that the Raiders and the Coliseum they're not on good terms. I've mentioned San Antonio. I have before on this show mentioned Mexico City as an option, and I think they're testing it out, putting the Raiders there frequently to make them kind of an
adopted home team. I could see the Raiders being a nomad franchise with something like, you know, to home games in Mexico's, two or three home games in Mexico City, two or three home games in San Antonio, one in like the UNLV Stadium in Las Vegas, one, and say London. I can see that being the Raiders home schedule in two thousand and nineteen
