Best ball thinking tricks us into overvaluing players (in redraft) we’d drop without hesitation once the real season starts.

In chasing the precision of computers, we may find ourselves longing for the messiness of being human.

Out of the echo chamber dynasty podcast guest ideas:

- Pro negotiator (trades, leverage)
- Entrepreneur (vision, risk mgmt)
- Gambler (probability, edge)
- Behavioral economist (bias, inefficiency)
- Poker pro (reads, value)
- Trial lawyer (persuasion, narrative)

Who else?

I had a +20000 bet on it and cashed out at half.

So... I’m no longer rooting for that.

Kaleb Johnson to a team like the Raiders in the 2nd round, he could end up as a top 3-4 rookie pick for me.

That’s an example of how fluid everything is right now.

Way too early Superflex rookie ranks IF Travis Hunter was a full time WR:

The way we view these players will dramatically change throughout the process and nothing alters it as much as draft capital.

Right now, for me, Kaleb would be in the 2nd tier behind Jeanty. However, 3rd rd DC would likely push him down the board.

That could be slightly off set by landing spot.
