‘The Bachelorette’ spoilers: Andi Dorfman, Josh Murray, Nick Viall, and hometown rankings

Andi -Just before we get to tonight’s new episode of “The Bachelorette” being on the air, let’s focus on what the show wants us to focus on above all else: Who Andi Dorfman is going to pick. We’ve been doing these standings all season long, and there are really not to many opportunities left for us to dive into them.

Remember with these that our goal here is not necessarily to share who we think are the top contenders, but rather, using context from the show, where Andi’s head was at going into the hometown dates.

4. Marcus Grodd – The man just doesn’t seem to have a great connection; it feels forced, like he is much more into her than she is into him. There’s nothing about his “love story” that suggests he will go into these hometown dates and blow her away.

3. Chris Soules – A very from the “nice guy” angle, but we wonder more about the “living on a farm” angle. Even going into these dates, Andi had to know that this could be an issue. We certainly know that it is after she gets there.

2. Josh Murray – It’s possible that Andi shows up at Josh’s hometown and he completely blows her away. The two are in close proximity to each other, which means that she wouldn’t have to give up her whole life. However, their relationship has been so hot-and-cold that it’s hard to see him in pole position for her going into this.

1. Nick Viall – While we’re not saying that Nick is who she picks in the end, she clearly likes him a lot to be willing to put up with what the other guys are saying about him. There’s also no obvious problem ahead with his hometown date, unless you consider a large family a problem. They’ve also probably spent the most time together out of everyone left.

This episode will also feature the men and Andi reacting to the death of Eric Hill, and you can read a little bit more about all of that and the show’s decision-making process here.
