We’re a quarter of the way through the 2025 season, and the AFC North is officially up for grabs. Between injuries, inconsistent coaching, and a lot of moving parts, this division might be the wildest in football right now. In this week’s episode of Booze & Ballin, we break down each team’s situation, who’s rising, who’s falling, and why this division could come down to the final weeks of the season.

Joining us this week is special guest JB Cigars, a diehard Ravens fan ready to give us his take on how Baltimore and the rest of the AFC North stack up. JB also came prepared—with a few cherished bottles of bourbon and whiskey for us to taste and toast along the way. Tune in for bold opinions, a few laughs, and some top-shelf pours as we dive deep into the madness that is the AFC North! 🏈🥃

Fantasy football isn't won in the 1st few rounds of the draft. It is won in the later rounds with the players that support your stars and give you the best value. winning your league is as simple as drafting your WR2 in the late rounds or you set and forget flex player with the last pick of the draft. Tonight we will talk about players we are adding late that we believe can be a constant start or a league winner. Players like Keon Coleman, Calvin Ridley, Brenton Strange, and more...

Our inspiration for tonight's episode comes in the form of "Hooten Young', a 12 year American Whiskey

With the NFL draft in the books it is time to see how the top rookies were effected. This episode, to kick off the new season, we talk about the rookie we think moved up or down the fantasy draft board. Players like Jaydon Blue,  Colston Loveland, and Luther Burden III are among the players on the list. 

Tonights inspiration came in the from of 2XO. Specifically thier American Oak Straight Bourbon Whiskey

With the combine in the books, its time to give you our pre draft rookie rankings...

We left Travis Hunter out of this discussion because we believe that he will enter the draft as a "DB" and that hurts his offensive potential. 

Tonights inspiration comes in the form of Basil Hayden. A simple starter bourbon.
