A New Look in Carolina | Panthers Team Preview Jun 08, 2023

Show notes

The Fantasy Life Podcast is back with Ian Hartitz & Dwain McFarland for a deep dive into the Fantasy Football prospects of every team, and today we're diving into the Carolina Panthers. 🐾 Wondering if Bryce Young, the No. 1 overall pick, could have a phenomenal first year? Or if the Panthers will grant the big-ticket addition, RB Miles Sanders, a three-down role? 🤔 Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. From rookies to veterans, we are tackling every fantasy-relevant Panther right here! If you think you know the 2023 Panthers, think again! The organization has undergone a full makeover after a short-lived Matt Rhule "era." 🔄 Joining the pride are former Colts head coach Frank Reich and coordinators Thomas Brown and Ejiro Evero. Reich’s past record shows some volatility, and it will be fascinating to see how he adapts to having a rookie QB at the helm. The Panthers roster has also seen a complete overhaul with familiar faces leaving and fresh talent stepping in. It’s going to be a thrilling ride, and we are here for it! 🎢 A major talking point for the Panthers this year is Bryce Young. Standing out as the best pure passer in his class, this young gun has proven his prowess under pressure. 🎯 His out-of-structure throws are downright elite. However, Young's size and lack of demonstrated rushing upside could be roadblocks on his path to becoming a fantasy superstar. 🌟 Meanwhile, Miles Sanders brings a fascinating subplot to the Panthers' backfield. Known for his explosive ability to pick up yards and score TDs, Sanders has been a high performer. But can he replicate this success without the perks of an offense built around a dual-threat QB like Jalen Hurts and a high-ranking offensive line? Only time will tell! ⏰ Finally, the Panthers' receiving room is an enigma waiting to unfold. With seasoned pros like Adam Thielen, dynamic rookies like Jonathan Mingo, and unpolished gems like D.J. Chark, there's plenty of potential for some serious fantasy firepower. 💥 Read the full team preview here: https://www.fantasylife.com/articles/redraft/2023-team-preview-carolina-panthers Sign up for Underdog Fantasy and make your first deposit, and Underdog will match that up to $100 when you use promo code "LIFE" ➝ https://play.underdogfantasy.com/p-fantasy-life Subscribe to the free Fantasy Life Newsletter ➝ https://www.fantasylife.com/ Fantasy Life Socials: Twitter➝ https://bit.ly/3AYVkC3 Tik Tok➝ https://bit.ly/3RqHaQZ Instagram➝ https://bit.ly/3eyda7r Fantasy Life Live on Youtube➝ https://bit.ly/3BmhIqs Must be 18+ (21+ MA & AZ, 19+ AL, NE) and present in a state where Underdog Fantasy operates.

The Post Tom Brady Era Starts NOW | Buccaneers Team Preview Jun 06, 2023

Show notes

Can Baker Mayfield rediscover his 2018 and 2020 magic? Is Rachaad White the biggest steal in fantasy football? Are Mike Evans and Chris Godwin this year’s D.K. Metcalf and Tyler Lockett? 🏈🔥

Join Ian Hartitz & Dwain McFarland as they dive in to figure it out!

Every Bucs player who could impact your fantasy line-up will be put under the fantasy microscope! And don't forget to bookmark the Fantasy Life Team Preview Landing Page for a playbook full of fantasy football insight.

Head coach Todd Bowles is back with defensive coordinators Larry Foote and Kacy Rodgers. However, offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich has handed off the baton to Dave Canales. Canales will be looking to up the offensive game, so keep your eyes peeled for some QB cooking!👀🍳

Among roster changes, QB Tom Brady may be sailing off into retirement, while Baker Mayfield (1-year, $4 million) has joined the roster as the assumed starter. Leonard Fournette is now a free agent, while WRs Julio Jones and Breshad Perriman are on the open market. Keep an eye on these changes, folks!

And what about that QB drama? It's a tug-of-war between Mayfield and Kyle Trask for that starting QB role. Will Mayfield regain his rookie season shine, or will Trask's natural touch and tough competition spirit win the day? One thing’s for sure - we’re in for a roller coaster ride!🎢

When it comes to RBs, Rachaad White might just be the dark horse of fantasy football. Despite having objectively poor rushing stats, his prowess as a pass-catcher could be his saving grace. But keep your guards up, the backfield competition might not be over just yet!🐎

And now, the duo we've all been waiting for: Chris Godwin and Mike Evans. Just like D.K. Metcalf and Tyler Lockett, they've been proven fantasy heavyweights. But will the QB shake-up hurt their ADP? Will they manage to keep their top-15 status despite the changes? Only time will tell!⌛

So, grab your helmets, lace up your cleats, and get ready for the wild ride that is the 2023 fantasy football season. Buckle up, Bucs! 🏈🔥

Show notes

The Fantasy Life Podcast is back for a deep-dive analysis into the strategies that could maximize your chances of winning the Best Ball Mania IV on Underdog Fantasy! In this episode join Ian Hartitz & Chris Allen as they explore the mechanics of game stacking with an emphasis on Week 17, identify the ideal matchups, and provide you with a rundown of 2022's top-performing teams, all while keeping in mind the implications of training camp news and offseason hype. We start by using data from 2022 to identify the top matchups to target and those to avoid. We also review the top 100 players from the 2022 BBM3 finals teams, finding that players from high-scoring Week 17 games made up nearly half of the list. Focusing on 2023, we analyze current projected point totals and identify matchups to target, including the Detroit Lions at Dallas Cowboys and the Cincinnati Bengals at Kansas City Chiefs, with an expected combined point total of nearly 100. We also cover a couple of wild card matchups that are worth your attention: Green Bay Packers at Minnesota Vikings and Miami Dolphins at Baltimore Ravens. Lastly, we discuss the matchups to avoid, such as the New Orleans Saints at Tampa Bay Buccaneers with a surprisingly low point total. For the detailed breakdown of these games, analysis of key player moves, and insights into maximizing your Best Ball strategy, make sure to watch the entire video.

Rankings vs ADP | Fantasy Targets May 29, 2023

Show notes

Welcome back to another episode of the Fantasy Life podcast Today, we've got some juicy player discussions with Chris Allen and Ian Haritz. Let's dive right in. Starting off, Chris shines a spotlight on Geno Smith. With an Underdog ADP of QB16 and a ranking of QB12 by Dwain McFarland, it's clear that his value hasn't taken the proper rise since the draft, especially considering Seattle didn't draft a quarterback and their tight end, JSN, isn't a worry. Next up, Ian highlights Alexander Mattison. Despite an Underdog ADP of RB26, Ian believes Mattison could soar as high as RB17 without Dalvin Cook in the picture. Backing this, he cites Mattison's past performances, such as his stellar Week 17, 2020, performance when he ended up as RB4. However, workload might be an issue as the Vikings ranked 27th in targets to the running back position last year. Chris then discusses Elijah Mitchell, with an Underdog ADP of RB41. Interestingly, despite concerns about CMC splits, Mitchell has a pick value of 93.6 vs. 135.1 in Dwain's ranking. Jaylen Warren is next on Ian's list, with an Underdog ADP of RB46 and a ranking of RB43. The fact that the Steelers didn't draft a running back and that No. 3 RB Benny Snell is still a free agent, might play into Warren's favor. Antonio Gibson is another running back in focus, with Chris noting his Underdog ADP of RB39. Despite Ron Rivera's constant affirmation of giving Gibson more touches, his ranking is a pick value of 100.8 vs. 140.8. Ian then brings up Jerome Ford, with an Underdog ADP of RB58 and a ranking of RB49. As the direct backup to Nick Chubb with Hunt out of the picture, Ford might have an increased role this season, given the reluctance to give Chubb the pass-down work over his career. Turning to wide receivers, Chris talks about Jordan Addison, with an Underdog ADP of WR34 and a Dwain ranking of pick 49.2 vs. 89.7. Ian then discusses Diontae Johnson, who despite having an Underdog ADP of WR38, has a personal ranking of WR24, mainly due to his consistent target distribution. The tight ends aren't left out either, with Chris discussing Pat Freiermuth, who has an Underdog ADP of TE10, but ranks TE8 in Dwain's list. Ian ends with Gerald Everett, who despite having an Underdog ADP of TE20, ranks TE12, courtesy of his career-best marks in 2022.
