Top 5 RBs! A lot of Debate After McCaffrey (06/22 Fantasy Football Podcast) Jun 22, 2021

Show notes

Christian McCaffrey #1 is the easy call, but should he be drafted ahead of Patrick Mahomes in a 2-QB league? Is there any hesitation in putting Dalvin Cook at #2 (5:00)? We take a look at all of the candidates to finish in the Top 5 including Ezekiel Elliott, Aaron Jones and Austin Ekeler along with the usual names. Who has the most upside (8:00)?

News and notes (44:00) as we look at the Jaguars and Broncos RB situations, and Jamey reads some funny tweets (49:00)! ... Your emails at fantasyfootball@cbsi.com

It's Patrick Mahomes at #1, but who are we ranking second? Let's start with some stats about the position (4:00) including a surprising stat about Lamar Jackson near the goal line (7:45). Within this discussion, we'll talk about how prolific 2020 was for QBs and what to expect in 2021 ... How confident are Dave and Jamey in putting Josh Allen as their QB2 (11:04)?

Now moving on to the rankings, we determine when Mahomes should be picked (20:30), debate Jackson vs. Kyler Murray as QB3 (22:22) and tell you why Dak Prescott is QB5 even though you shouldn't be surprised if he is much better than that (28:40). And let's reveal our Top 3 movie dads of all-time (39:00)! Why the hell is John McClane on the list? Can anybody beat Bryan Mills from "Taken"? ... Email us at fantasyfootball@cbsi.com

We've got some early sleepers to discuss starting with a favorite from Dave and Heath (3:05).

Sleeper RBs (22:40) include James Conner, Gus Edwards and Latavius Murray. None of these guys are being drafted in the Top 100. And at WR (32:10), can Antonio Brown actually be the best Bucs WR?
