Pete runs three final BBM drafts before the NFL schedule drops, spinning the wheel to bring on three very different YouTube members. Chris Riley, a cash game grinder and eliminated SYTYCT contestant, kicks things off with a submission debrief and an impassioned Sixers rant. Willis, a four-screen content omnivore, joins for Draft 2 and locks in the double Elite QB build. Josh, an Eagles fan somehow living in Kansas City, closes it out...and Christian McCaffrey ends up on all three teams.
🎉 Want to join the bash? 1) Become a Youtube member 2) chat #jointhebash at the top of the show 3) be available to hop on immediately with no tech issues.
