Trade Talk, Fill in the Blank, DEN-NYJ (09/30 Fantasy Football Podcast) Sep 30, 2020

Show notes

A lot of trade talk throughout today's show. Let's get started with a big trade Dave made and the reality of your FAB bids (4:00). You're probably going to spend more FAB than we recommend, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Then Dave and Heath give their favorite buy low (9:15) and sell high (13:40) guys. It's time for Deshaun Watson to get going, but what about Zach Ertz? ... We react to the COVID news (18:30) and tell you what Fantasy commissioners and managers need to know. And we've got a lot of injury updates plus some interesting stats (24:55) that could impact your Fantasy teams. Are we concerned about the lack of catches for Dalvin Cook and Nick Chubb? What are we learning about the Bengals offense and the Bills offense? What are we learning about the types of routes that D.J. Moore, Michael Gallup, and Julian Edelman are running? ... DEN-NYJ preview (35:40) because we have to! There are actually a few decent starting options in this game. Then we'll give you even more trade candidates (44:00) before we bring on special guest Nick Fox for some Fill in the Blank (50:50) and some Apple Podcast questions (1:00:00) ...

Thankfully, injuries are not the story this week. Mike Davis, Darrell Henderson and Rex Burkhead most certainly are. So are the rookie WRs. Who are we adding on the waiver wire this week (4:26)? And let's run through the big injury news as well (7:10) ... Buy or Sell (11:30) with Russell Wilson, Josh Allen, Joe Mixon and more.
