The Club x Club series reaches Hull City, and the hosts don't sugarcoat it: this is a promoted side most people have tipped for the drop, and researching them, in Karl's words, was a genuinely depressing exercise. Lots of Premier League names on paper, a defence-first setup under a manager who'll sit deep and try to make every game a boring one, but very little that translates to Fantrax points.
The lads land on the honest short list. There's a right winger the group rates as the one genuinely draftable attacking asset, backed by some eye-catching underlying percentiles, and a returning striker whose ADP looks wildly inflated by single-position leagues. That striker sparks a proper "would you rather" run through the names going around him, and a debate over whether he's a reach, a panic pick, or simply undraftable in a multipositional format. Plus the veteran full-backs and centre-backs with Premier League history who don't need a draft pick at all, just a spot on your watch list.
The takeaway is blunt and the hosts have fun with it: outside of two names, spend no draft capital here, keep an eye on the waiver wire, and enjoy a nostalgic wander down Hull's memory lane of legends past. As always, everything's timestamped to August 3rd.
