Jared Smola from DraftSharks has returned to fully analyze both conference championship games with us. Together, we identify the weekend's top DFS plays from the two-game slate. Is it wise to take a chance on Sammy Watkins (11:44) if you need to save money, how much better of an RB play is Derrick Henry (22:41) than the rest of the field, and can Jamaal Williams (44:32) pay dividends as a GPP option? The trio also sheds light on their predictions for both conference championships and the Super Bowl (33:45).

Where should you take Derrick Henry (8:21) after his huge second half, how high up can Michael Thomas (22:44) be drafted, and would it be smart to trust Odell Beckham (28:07) again? Is Lamar Jackson (45:40) primed to be a first-round fantasy selection and can Kyler Murray (50:53) make a big second-year leap?

Will Christian McCaffrey (2:13) be the slam-dunk play he has been almost all season, is Leonard Fournette (13:40) worth a spot in your cash game lineups, and is Jameis Winston (30:05) this week's top QB play? Also, could John Ross (44:09) and Justice Hill (48:23) explode this week and provide major value in GPPs?

The guys are back for the final weekly recap of the 2019 NFL season and share their thoughts on what 2020 might have in store for fantasy owners. How much has Kenyan Drake's (4:58) tenure with the Cardinals affected his stock, did Jameis Winston's (10:43) clunker alter his future with Tampa Bay, and can DeVante Parker (27:46) be trusted as a WR2 next year? Where will Lamar Jackson (41:32) be drafted in 2020, how much upside does Courtland Sutton (56:17) have with Drew Lock under center, and what do we expect from Kyler Murray (1:00:20) heading into next season?

Moore (28:03) in cash games? Does the Browns' defense (39:03) actually have cash game viability despite facing Lamar Jackson and the Ravens and is Miles Sanders (49:37) a solid GPP play thanks to his increased volume?

What should we think of Mike Boone (4:22) if Dalvin Cook were to sit, would it be wise to play Duke Johnson (19:49), and is Kenny Golladay (34:41) a must-start option? Can N'Keal Harry (40:30) produce against Buffalo now that he's a full-time player and should you reconsider using Tyler Higbee (56:53)?

Sigmund Bloom of Footballguys joins the fun as we discuss the waiver pickups with the most league-winning potential on this championship edition of our weekly waiver wire show. Is Mike Boone or Breshad Perriman (3:26) this week's top add, could Anthony Miller (21:49) outproduce them both, and would it be wise for fantasy owners to place Chris Conley (28:39) in the top tier of widely available WRs? Which QB deserves your attention more between Ryan Fitzpatrick (42:39) and Gardner Minshew (44:41) and what kind of upside does O.J. Howard (49:12) have with both of Tampa's top receivers gone?

We bring you our hard-hitting instant analysis for each one of Week 15's Sunday afternoon matchups! A.J. Brown (3:17) continued his late-season surge and Breshad Perriman (18:11) appears to be Tampa's top WR if Chris Godwin is sidelined. Which Giants WR (30:51) is viable next week, is Anthony Miller (41:42) an obvious play against KC, and should Mike Boone (58:27) be viewed as a must-start if Dalvin Cook (57:41) sits?

Greg Ward (47:56) could be a target monster this week and Dak Prescott (1:04:49) may have a high ceiling thanks to his expected passing volume.

Our dynamic duo spends today's show analyzing the top waiver adds after an injury-laden week in the NFL. What are the odds that DeAndre Washington (7:46) starts this week and is he the top overall waiver wire add? Is A.J. Brown (18:56) the best largely available wideout and does his quarterback, Ryan Tannehill (34:11), have the potential to be a top-five signal-caller in Week 15? Would it be wise to gamble on Mitch Trubisky (37:02) against Green Bay coming off a couple solid performances and should you drop Sammy Watkins (47:38)?

With the first week of the fantasy postseason almost through, we bring you all the instant analysis you need to evaluate Sunday's NFL action. Should fantasy owners fully trust Raheem Mostert (5:20) moving forward and can Anthony Miller (10:15) be started the rest of the way? Is it time to consider benching Austin Hooper (24:07) and Odell Beckham (34:01), should we start getting excited about Robby Anderson (48:14), and has A.J. Brown (1:00:15) become a viable option down the stretch after his big day?

We're breaking down the best DFS plays in Week 14 and Doug Norrie, owner of DFSR.com, is in with us to share his takes as well. Who is the better cash game RB on DraftKings between Alvin Kamara (11:29) and Leonard Fournette (12:20), is Patrick Laird (25:54) a decent value play, and is Auden Tate (41:14) too inconsistent to trust? Even against Buffalo, Lamar Jackson (45:56) appears to be a stone-cold cash game lock and it might make sense to use both Nick Chubb (1:02:05) and Kareem Hunt (1:03:29) in GPP lineups.

Emmanuel Sanders (26:28) may be more viable than most people realize, but what is the logic behind Christian Kirk's (35:54) relatively high ranking? Also, is Ryan Fitzpatrick's (51:47) upside worth the risk he presents?

Is Darwin Thompson (5:24) the top RB add and is Zach Pascal (19:27) too volatile to trust? Does Anthony Miller (30:26) have enough stability for fantasy owners to rely on him down the stretch and is Jacob Hollister (41:15) worth stashing for a tasty Week 16 matchup?

Can we place any trust in Ronald Jones (2:53) throughout the fantasy playoffs and how concerned should you be about Le'Veon Bell's (26:45) lowered snap count? Are either of Tennessee's top WRs (30:45) viable options down the stretch and is Courtland Sutton (1:03:55) a bonafide stud?

Is Miles Sanders (9:20) a must-play versus Miami if Jordan Howard sits, does Andy Dalton's (23:34) low price make him the top QB choice for cash games on DraftKings, and should GPP players pay up for Travis Kelce (33:27)? The trio discusses the Thanksgiving slate (47:07) towards the end of the show and together they break down whether rostering Michael Thomas (50:51) should be the top priority.

Together, we break down all of the top pickups heading into the fantasy football regular season's biggest week, Week 13. Does Benny Snell (6:45) have the potential to make the biggest immediate impact of all widely unowned RBs, is Anthony Miller (18:46) primed for a big Thanksgiving performance, and can fantasy owners be comfortable playing N'Keal Harry (28:24) this week? Can a stellar matchup against the Buccaneers make Nick Foles (39:34) the top QB streamer and how much upside does the Packers' defense (49:22) have facing Daniel Jones and the Giants?

Is Rashaad Penny (1:26) primed to finally receive more work moving forward, has Chris Godwin (8:33) reasserted his status as a solid WR1 after slowing down over the past several weeks, and does Jonathan Williams (15:19) have the potential to be a league-winner? Can Jamison Crowder (42:18) be trusted as a weekly WR3 down the stretch and is it crazy to rely on Ryan Tannehill (59:08) as a viable starter the rest of the way?

Are Derrick Henry (5:35) and D.J. Chark (18:22) absolute locks in cash games? Is this the week we can finally trust Baker Mayfield (41:19) as a solid value play and is the Titans' defense (47:57) the perfect contrarian option for GPP contests? At the end, the trio closes out the show with their locks and stacks of the week (1:01:51).

Should Michael Gallup's (31:24) tough matchup against New England scare fantasy owners away from him and is Noah Fant (1:02:43) a worthy dart throw for TE1 production despite facing Buffalo?

Week 12 is upon us, and with that comes our analysis of the best waiver wire options at every position. Is Jonathan Williams (2:17) an RB2-worthy back with Marlon Mack out this week and does Allen Lazard's (24:03) role in Green Bay's offense make him the top pickup at WR? Can Randall Cobb (30:43) excel again versus New England and will Ryan Griffin (47:36) develop into what we thought Chris Herndon was supposed to be? With this being the final week many fantasy owners have before the fantasy trade deadline, we close out the show with our favorite buy-low and sell-high candidates heading into the stretch run (52:52).

Week 11 is almost in the books and we are back to give you our top takeaways from each of Week 11's Sunday afternoon games. Nick Foles' return bodes well for D.J. Chark (2:00) and Courtland Sutton (6:18) seems to rack up the numbers no matter who his QB is. How should we feel about Kenny Golladay (21:18) with Jeff Driskel under center, is Calvin Ridley (40:26) a rock-solid WR2 without Austin Hooper and Mohamed Sanu, and is David Johnson (55:58) actually droppable?

The guys are here to give you their favorite starts and sits for a difficult, six-team bye week. What do we expect from Jaylen Samuels (2:04) with James Conner seeming likely to suit up and should fantasy owners trust LeSean McCoy (19:37) against Tennessee? Can Robby Anderson (33:58) rebound thanks to a bad Giants defense and is Jimmy Garoppolo (47:19) a viable option versus Seattle?

Adam Aizer from CBS Sports has joined the fray to go over this week's top waiver pickups with us. Is Ronald Jones (4:59) the best add heading into Week 10 and can Corey Davis (24:22) possibly have WR3 upside for the rest of the season? Can fantasy owners have any confidence in Dallas Goedert (41:47) as a weekly play and should you seriously consider buying low on Terry McLaurin (54:39)?

Another Sunday of NFL action is in the books and we've got you covered with our fantasy takeaways from every Sunday afternoon game. We discuss Adam Thielen's ailment (0:24) and how it affects Stefon Diggs next week (30:45). Who will be the biggest loser in Seattle now that Josh Gordon (4:13) has arrived and do we have any concerns about Tevin Coleman (13:23)? Is Minshew Mania (21:40) done in Jacksonville, what do we make of the Chiefs' backfield (32:43) now, and is Chris Carson (51:28) in danger of fumbling away the starting gig?

We share our thoughts on this week's top DFS cash game and GPP plays for FanDuel and DraftKings with DailyFantasyInsider CEO, Justin MacMahan. Who is the best DFS cash game play between Dalvin Cook and Christian McCaffrey (2:16) and which Panthers WR should you aim to stick into your lineup (15:03)? Demaryius Thomas (28:18) has the makings of a sneaky good play, Washington's defense (42:16) has the best combination of price and upside, and Terry McLaurin (51:31) has the potential to smash at a mid-tier price.

Heath Cummings from CBS Sports is on with us as we dig into our favorite starts and top sits for Week 9. Would fantasy owners be wise to start Kenyan Drake over LeSean McCoy (10:15) and does Mark Walton (19:53) have RB2 potential against the Jets? Is it time to seriously consider benching Odell Beckham (40:21) and can desperate fantasy owners in a pinch pick up Darren Fells or T.J. Hockenson (52:55)?

Savvy owners would be wise to stash Rashaad Penny (6:28) and Alexander Mattison (8:51). The guys debate Anthony Miller's (20:35) short-term viability, discuss Diontae Johnson's (30:17) likelihood for weekly WR3 value, and analyze whether Dallas Goedert (42:49) should be streamed against Chicago. The show concludes with our thoughts on this week's best fantasy trade candidates (53:40) and a fun chat about what teams have the best chance to make it to the Super Bowl (58:10).

We are back after another week of football to shine light on how Sunday afternoon's slate of action has changed the fantasy landscape. What does Tevin Coleman's (1:11) dominant outing mean for his value moving forward, should we still view Zach Ertz (7:44) as an elite tight end, and is Royce Freeman (25:36) becoming Denver's goal-line back? Can Christian Kirk (34:08) now be relied upon as a weekly WR3 and can Leonard Fournette (47:52) be safely viewed as a top-five RB moving forward despite the lack of touchdowns?

Is it wise to spend up on Christian McCaffrey (4:29) against the 49ers and should Indy's pass defense concern those who use Courtland Sutton (23:50)? Is Allen Robinson (30:04) an underrated play and is Zach Ertz (46:49) a safer GPP play than most people realize?

Is Latavius Murray (4:45) a potential RB2 option and can Marvin Jones (26:53) be trusted for big production again versus the Giants? Is Teddy Bridgewater (50:17) a good desperation streamer and should fantasy owners actually rely on O.J. Howard (57:23) coming off his bye?

What can we take away from Chase Edmonds' (1:56) big day and what can we expect from the Chiefs' receivers during Patrick Mahomes' (14:24) absence?

Should Chris Carson (12:38) be considered in cash games and how viable is Latavius Murray (15:42) if Alvin Kamara sits? Evan Engram's (36:40) target volume may make him an even safer play than you think and it might be unwise to underrate Derrick Henry's (58:24) floor.

Does Buffalo's backfield belong to Devin Singletary or Frank Gore (15:28)? With Jalen Ramsey gone, is Auden Tate (41:36) a sneaky good start against Jacksonville? Also, is Jason Witten (48:28) a surprisingly safe option this week?

Who is the better cash game QB between Kyler Murray and Matt Ryan (37:53) and will people be sleeping on Tyreek Hill (47:41) in GPPs if he returns this week?

Have we overrated Lamar Jackson (30:59) recently, has Stefon Diggs (58:11) fallen to WR3 status, and was Aaron Jones' (1:04:02) huge performance something we should've expected?

Tags and Bobby disagree on Jacoby Brissett's (33:25) potential as a streamer versus Kansas City and the Saints' defense (46:34) could have a huge ceiling against Jameis Winston and the Buccaneers. At the end of the show, the trio each breaks down their top start, sit, and streamer of the week (47:13).

The guys are back to talk about their favorite options for Week 3's main DFS slate with friend of the show, Davis Mattek, from Swolecast. Is Christian McCaffrey (3:03) the top RB play in cash games over Ezekiel Elliott (4:22) and is there a Carolina Panther wideout (19:59) who is worth using if Kyle Allen is under center? Will Kyler Murray's (31:38) high passing volume finally lead to a breakout week and can T.J. Hockenson (45:22) repeat his Week 1 performance against the Eagles?

Pat Fitzmaurice, host of the Fitz on Fantasy podcast, returns to chat with the guys about their top starts and sits of the week. Will Tony Pollard (5:04) get enough work to have flex appeal against Miami and does Jaylen Samuels (26:20) have a prime opportunity to gain a bigger piece of Pittsburgh's backfield pie? Who is the better start between Geronimo Allison (34:53) and Marquez Valdes-Scantling (36:45) and is Josh Allen (55:58) a solid QB1 versus the Bengals?

We're back after another week of Sunday NFL action to give you the top waiver pickups heading into Week 3, and we've got one of the fantasy community's most loved personalities, Scott Fish, along for the ride with us today. Is Frank Gore (9:02) seriously a top waiver target as a spot-start option and who is the better pickup between Mecole Hardman and Demarcus Robinson (23:26)? Would it be wise to trade for JuJu Smith-Schuster (39:45) now that Ben Roethlisberger is out for the season and is Will Dissly the top TE add over Chris Herndon (42:54)?

Another week is just about in the books and a few developments took place including Ben Roethlisberger getting hurt (8:58) and Lamar Jackson showing up on the stat sheet again (25:10). Two of the biggest losers of the week are Donte Moncrief (7:57) and Dante Pettis (11:53). We dive into our panic meter and Cam Newton's play is setting off a deafening alarm (15:31). What should owners be thinking with O.J. Howard (21:56)? Marvin Jones played better than the stats show (48:45) and Carlos Hyde looked strong (54:00). What does Antonio Brown's first game as a Patriot tell us (57:27)?

Josh Jacobs' (6:54) high volume and low price is hard to turn away from on DraftKings and Matt Breida (16:11) is a great value on FanDuel with Tevin Coleman out. Is Sammy Watkins (29:55) a must-play cash game option, can you get away with playing each of the Rams' top-three WRs (36:43), and is Darren Waller (46:08) bound to have a bunch of catches this week?

Liz Loza from Yahoo! Sports joins the fun today as we break down our top starts and sits entering Week 2. The trio goes over the latest news with Antonio Brown (4:01) and discuss how his value compares to that of Sammy Watkins (5:08) at this point. Ronald Jones (20:30) appears to be the frontrunner in Tampa's backfield and Carlos Hyde (25:05) might be a startable option against Jacksonville. Marquez Valdes-Scantling's (44:46) versatility and athleticism could help him maintain his fantasy viability and T.J. Hockenson (1:00:02) looks like he's the real deal.

The guys are back to give you the scoop on which players fantasy owners should flock to on the waiver wire with the first Sunday of NFL action in the books! Adrian Peterson (13:51) suddenly has value once again with Derrius Guice back on the shelf and Malcolm Brown (17:13) appears to have a bigger role than any of us would have thought. Also, should fantasy owners put any stock in Marquise Brown's (30:03) big game and are we looking at a breakout year for John Ross (31:46) thanks to Zac Taylor's offense? We close the show by naming a few buy-low/sell-high trade candidates (56:47) and it may be wise for fantasy owners to cash in on Allen Robinson's (58:00) big performance.

Football has returned, and so have we to give you our instant thoughts on what we witnessed during Week 1's Sunday NFL action! Is elite production from Sammy Watkins (4:17) what we can expect every week Tyreek Hill (2:47) is out and has Miles Sanders (12:14) shown that he's the lead man in Philadelphia's backfield? DeSean Jackson (37:47) stars in a revenge game against Washington and Austin Ekeler (53:21) proved he's the back to trust in Melvin Gordon's absence.

We're back to give you the lowdown on the best DFS plays every week during the season! Is Joe Mixon (12:30) a GPP target in head coach Zac Taylor's offense and is the risk surrounding Austin Ekeler's (20:24) workload worth taking on in cash games? How safe of a play is Jameis Winston (40:14) and should you gamble on the Jaguars' talented defense (52:16) against the Chiefs in GPPs? At the end of the show, the guys share their stacks and locks of the week (1:05:25).

Football is almost here! We are joined by Sigmund Bloom from Footballguys to shed light on which players you should consider starting and sitting during the first week of NFL action! Should you cut Tony Pollard (3:12) now that Ezekiel Elliott is back and how much work can we expect Elliott (5:33) to see this week? Is Miles Sanders (15:53) set to break out in Week 1, has John Brown (30:17) been heavily undervalued so far, and is Mitch Trubisky (54:37) a viable streamer against Green Bay's improved defense?

Now that most teams are drafted and we begin thinking about our lineups, Pat Mayo of DraftKings joins us on the show to break down Week 1's top sleeper options at each position. Chase Edmonds could find himself the beneficiary of the Air Raid offense (5:49), Matt Breida is no slouch which he proved last season (10:29), and C.J. Anderson could steal some touches from Kerryon Johnson this week (23:13). We move onto the WRs starting with Ted Ginn Jr. (25:16). Pat explains why he's a big fan of Dede Westbrook (35:04) this week and beyond. Jimmy Garroppolo could be forced to keep up with Tampa's offense (43:58) and Austin Ekeler kicks off our list of players to target in early trades (51:56).

We're with Marcas Grant from NFL Media as we analyze the plethora of news from the weekend and break down our top waiver wire stashes. How has the fantasy outlook of the Texans' skill position players changed after the acquisitions of Carlos Hyde (3:37), Laremy Tunsil (4:46), and Kenny Stills (8:06)? What does LeSean McCoy signing with Kansas City mean for Damien Williams (10:48), Darwin Thompson (16:22), and the Bills' RBs (20:36)? Plus, the holdout saga continues with Ezekiel Elliott (26:57) and Melvin Gordon (29:31) as we move into Week 1. Will Ty Montgomery (37:49) have a role in the Jets' backfield, is there a chance Jimmy Garoppolo (45:16) loses his job this season, and who is Seattle's second-best receiver (49:55)?

On today's episode, Andy Holloway from The Fantasy Footballers joins us as we give you guys critical draft tips to help you dominate your last-minute drafts. The show kicks off with the latest on the Ezekiel Elliott (3:20) and Melvin Gordon (6:23) holdout situations. Later on, we discuss many helpful topics that will aid you as you draft, like when you should grab your RB3 and RB4 (23:56), how the Bucs' backfield may shake out (30:46), and what the best and worst draft slots are (47:12). The show ends with us breaking down QB draft strategies in two-QB or superflex leagues (50:24) and explaining what the best way to attack auction drafts is (59:15).

Are you ready for the season because we certainly are. Jim Sannes of numberFire took time to join the show and together, we're focusing in on a few key names that haven't been mentioned all that much this year. Kenyan Drake (3:25) and Kenny Stills (4:07) have been in the headlines recently, but is there any weight to the trade rumors? Should we buy into the report that Melvin Gordon is likely going to sign a deal (5:08)? We're naming our top three breakouts beginning with a pair of Packers receivers (12:26). Kirk Cousins has a golden opportunity to return to fantasy stardom (29:40) and Royce Freeman could bounce back from his rookie campaign to not only make an impact, but hurt Phillip Lindsay's value (42:02).

The crew is reunited with BettingPros Podcast host, Dan Harris, and together the trio shares their top preseason takeaways. The guys engage in a couple heated debates on Tony Pollard's (3:37) value if Ezekiel Elliott misses games and Derrius Guice's (16:18) upside if he takes over Washington's starting RB job soon. Is Dede Westbrook (26:48) primed to excel as Nick Foles' top receiver and does Josh Allen (43:56) possess top-10 QB potential? We finish out the show with a fun round of Fantasy Fill in the Blank (48:00) and discuss whether Sammy Watkins (59:39) is being far too overlooked in drafts. Sponsors:

Michael Fabiano joins the gang in the show's second half to examine which players offer league-winning upside (28:13). Does Odell Beckham (33:04) have more upside than any other receiver, can Kyler Murray's (40:47) rushing can put him in the QB1 overall conversation, and is Melvin Gordon's (48:35) elite production worth taking a gamble on in the third or fourth round?

Friend of the show and author of the best-selling Fantasy Black Book series, Joe Pisapia, helps us break down which guys you should target late in drafts. Darwin Thompson (9:30) has noteworthy value as Damien Williams' handcuff, but are Mecole Hardman (24:38) and Mike Davis (33:07) truly worth late-round selections and does Adam Humphries (48:04) have any viability in Tennessee? The trio then names defenses (49:34) and kickers (55:00) that can have a positive impact for your squad. Sponsors:

On today's show, the guys team up with Adam Rank from NFL Network and shine some light on their top draft targets in every round. Why might it be wise to grab Travis Kelce (9:04) late in the first round and can Joe Mixon (17:32) defy the odds to finish the season as a high-end RB1? David Montgomery (31:00) could be primed for a big year in an improving Bears offense, especially if Mitch Trubisky (58:06) can play up to his potential and have a breakout season. Sponsors:

Four-time Emmy Award winner and NFL Next Gen Stats analyst, James Koh, comes on with us to chat about which RBs and QBs he is avoiding at their ADP. Then later, we shed light on the WRs and TEs you will regret taking with our next guest, Jared Smola from DraftSharks. The first overall pick might be too high for Saquon Barkley (3:59) and Miles Sanders (19:24) may struggle to return value at his draft cost. We also question why Julian Edelman's (33:07) ADP is so high and discuss Calvin Ridley's (46:59) potential lack of volume in 2019. Sponsors:

We break down the top sleepers in fantasy football with one of the most respected analysts across the fantasy industry, Scott Pianowski of Yahoo! Sports, and kick off the show with the latest news on Antonio Brown (4:09). Tony Pollard (21:00) may have more upside than most fantasy owners suspect, Geoff Swaim (30:41) could emerge as Nick Foles' go-to guy, and Justice Hill's (44:42) talent might be too tantalizing for the Ravens to underutilize him. Josh Gordon (47:53) is certainly not a sleeper, but can we trust him now that he's been reinstated? Also, is Austin Hooper (52:36) primed to continue his steady improvement? Sponsors:

Aaron Jones (11:49) is the definition of a high-risk/high-reward pick, Corey Davis' (19:07) biggest roadblock is Marcus Mariota, and Nyheim Hines (36:57) may be more impressive as a receiver than you may think. Listen until the end to find out who won the draft! Sponsors:

Friend of the show, Jake Ciely of The Athletic, returns to discuss which players present the most value in the middle rounds. Is Andrew Luck (3:45) worth taking a chance on in light of his injury concerns, how high is Hunter Henry's (27:45) upside, and is Sterling Shepard (35:21) locked into a top-30 finish if he can stay healthy? As the show comes to a close, we bring you another exciting installment of Fantasy Feud (45:44)! Will Tags' winning streak come to a halt, or will Bobby be forced to read another poem at the end?

Today our guys talk with Jeff Ratcliffe from Pro Football Focus about which players he is much higher and lower on than the Expert Consensus Rankings. Should fantasy owners expect David Montgomery (11:29) to produce better numbers than Jordan Howard did with Chicago last year, does the fantasy community undervalue Alshon Jeffery (27:03), and how concerned should you be about Julian Edelman's (36:39) age? The show ends in a discussion on which rookies we're watching and who we're staying away from (48:09). Is Darrell Henderson (49:51) Todd Gurley's handcuff and how high are we willing to grab Kyler Murray (59:04)? Sponsors:

We are joined by Matt Waldman of Footballguys and together we each share our top busts for the upcoming season. Should fantasy owners be heavily concerned about Antonio Brown (2:43) and can Russell Wilson (20:36) maintain his high efficiency from last year? Who has the higher bust potential between Jordan Howard (29:12) and Miles Sanders (30:36) and is Theo Riddick a bigger threat to Phillip Lindsay's (38:41) touches than we may think? To close out the show, we read your questions about which players are most likely to be frustrating top-24 performers (53:52), this year's Nick Chubb (58:06), or finish as a top-three tight end with an ADP outside of the top six tight ends (1:00:56), among several others.

Adam Aizer, podcast host for the Fantasy Football Today Podcast, competes against Bobby and Tags in our first mock draft of the NFL preseason! The guys quickly go over Keke Coutee's (2:37) injury and Andy Reid's decision to employ a backfield committee in Kansas City (4:19) before we start the draft. The fun begins (15:06) with Bobby nabbing Alvin Kamara with the fourth pick, Tags taking David Johnson (15:36) fifth, and Adam snatching JuJu Smith-Schuster (16:55) with the 11th pick. Should fantasy owners have any concerns about Mike Evans (19:03), are people underrating Jared Goff (40:42), and what kind of role would Justice Hill (49:23) have if Mark Ingram got hurt? Sponsors:

J.J. Zachariason, host of The Late-Round Podcast, is on the show with us today to go over our running back rankings and tiers. How does Duke Johnson's (11:03) arrival in Houston affect his value and what is Damien Williams' (29:05) floor? How high is Sony Michel's (33:08) ceiling now that he might be used in the passing game and can Miles Sanders (51:38) run away with the Eagles' starting running back job?

We kick off the week with Heath Cummings from CBS Sports and analyze which players you would be wise to buy or sell the hype on. Between second-tier QBs Baker Mayfield, Cam Newton, and Carson Wentz (10:26), which one should fantasy owners be looking to snag the most shares of? Is it time to hop aboard the Miles Sanders (17:45) hype train and should we expect Josh Gordon (36:01) to play at all this year? In the final third of the show, the trio takes a shot at naming the odds of certain things happening across the fantasy landscape (42:38). What are the odds that Patrick Mahomes (42:49) repeats as the QB1, Todd Gurley (49:33) finishes as a top-three RB, and Tyler Lockett (57:18) receives 100 targets? Sponsors:

The guys explain which players they largely differ on compared to the Expert Consensus Rankings (ECR) at each position and then engage in a fun, new segment called Fantasy Fill in the Blank (49:15). Is Jared Goff (3:19) QB1 or QB2 material, does Joe Mixon (17:46) have a capped ceiling, and can David Moore (37:59) lead the Seahawks in targets? Toward the end of the show, we take a stab at naming a couple players who could be on the highest percentage of fantasy playoff rosters (59:26).

Sean Koerner of The Action Network gives us a hand today and together, we walk you through the players he likes more or less than the Expert Consensus Rankings (ECR) along with which athletes hold sneaky upside this season. How concerned should fantasy owners be about Sony Michel's (9:59) knee and will Tyrell Williams (19:06) be better than many expect in Oakland? How much upside does Jimmy Garoppolo (39:50) have despite the lack of rushing and what is Austin Hooper's (54:25) potential?

Will Rashaad Penny (8:17) steal the starting job from Chris Carson and what do we make of the Buccaneers' backfield (28:43)? Are the Steelers (43:40) really switching to a running back-by-committee approach this season and is Joe Mixon (54:39) primed to underperform in 2019?

Our good friend, Joe Pisapia, author of the Fantasy Black Book series, has joined today to project which athletes will see their ADP rise. Phillip Lindsay (6:27) may be looking at even more touches in 2019, Marquez Valdes-Scantling (28:36) has the chance to excel if he begins the year as Green Bay's No. 2 WR, and it doesn't make sense for Jameis Winston (31:26) to be so underrated when his receivers are valued so highly. The guys later engage in some pre-game hijinx (41:24) before concluding the show with another fun Fantasy Feud (43:41) segment. Listen until the end to find out who wins!

Jared Smola from DraftSharks returns to discuss which players he ranks much differently compared to our Expert Consensus Rankings (ECR). After that, we go divisional once again and analyze every important skill player in the AFC South. Where should Tyreek Hill (3:02) be selected now that he will not be suspended and what does that mean for Sammy Watkins (6:26) and Travis Kelce (8:29)? The guys later debate Tyrell Williams' (25:04) value in Oakland and explain why they don't expect elite numbers from Drew Brees (31:30) this season. Which Indy WR (47:06) will have the most fantasy relevance outside of T.Y. Hilton, can the Texans support three viable fantasy receivers (55:07), and is Leonard Fournette's (1:05:04) upside derived more from his volume or his talent?

Our dynamic duo spends today's show giving you the skinny on their favorite high-upside running backs and wideouts. We debate exactly how much upside Dalvin Cook (6:10) has and share our thoughts on when fantasy owners should start to panic regarding Melvin Gordon (19:53) and Ezekiel Elliott. Does Lamar Miller (32:38) have stud potential in the Texans' offense and can D.J. Moore (49:15) explode as Carolina's bona fide top WR?

Is Ryan Fitzpatrick (4:36) worth selecting for people who are punting the position and does his former teammate, Jameis Winston (28:53), have the potential to be a stud this year? How much should Melvin Gordon's (42:32) holdout worry fantasy owners and how do we value Royce Freeman (50:22 & 53:20) and Phillip Lindsay heading into their sophomore campaigns?

How many targets can James Washington (10:53) see this season, will Lamar Jackson (19:50) run for 1,000 yards in 2019, and is Geoff Swaim (38:24) a future tight end stud who is completely off the radar? What kind of workload will Justice Hill (44:38) handle and which Tampa Bay running back (54:53) has the best shot at excelling in Bruce Arians' offense?

Bill Enright of Fantasy Football Champs is with us as we break down our favorite undervalued players and examine every fantasy-relevant athlete in the AFC East. Is James Conner (4:08) deserving of a mid-first round pick and is Josh Gordon (27:25) a sleeping stud or a waste of a roster spot? How concerning are Sony Michel's (42:08) knee issues and can fantasy owners feel good about any Dolphins wideout (53:36)? Plus, is Josh Allen (1:01:12) completely untrustworthy or does he get much more flak than he deserves?
On today's show, we break down each RB2-caliber back and examine every fantasy-relevant player in the NFC North. What is the likelihood of Damien Williams (8:23) being stuck in a timeshare and does Marlon Mack (16:22) have more upside and safety than Aaron Jones? The guys later explain why Mitch Trubisky (32:29) is a better QB than Cam Newton, shed light on why Aaron Rodgers (55:14) should be ranked as the QB1 and when he should be taken, and share the risk with selecting Kerryon Johnson (1:13:20).

Our dynamic duo begins the show by breaking down their top players to avoid in drafts this summer before they dig deep into NFC South fantasy analysis. Tyler Lockett's (11:21) efficiency in 2018 may not be sustainable, Le'Veon Bell's (16:17) offense and coach could hold him back, and Seattle's lack of pass attempts doesn't bode well for Russell Wilson (30:26). Would it be surprising if Alvin Kamara (40:23) finished as the RB1, is Cam Newton's (58:53) rushing upside eroding, and how high is Ronald Jones' (1:06:10) ceiling?

Who should fantasy owners grab first overall (1:11), how early should you consider taking Travis Kelce (10:10), and is health the only thing standing between Dalvin Cook (21:03) and rock-solid RB1 production? Who is the first Rams WR (37:14) owners should select in drafts, and is there any hope that Russell Wilson (39:39) gets more pass attempts in 2019? Does any 49ers RB (48:11) have a chance to become a consistent fantasy producer, and how much upside does Kyler Murray's (53:50) rushing give him?

Kyle Yates, writer for The Fantasy Footballers, hops on with us as we take part in a half-PPR draft and explain the rationale behind our picks. Each expert selects a wide receiver to start the draft (2:57). Kyle is torn between James White (20:14) and Rashaad Penny, who we have an in-depth conversation about later in the draft (28:00). How concerned should owners who want Eric Ebron (24:22) be about Jack Doyle's return from injury? Stay tuned to find out who won the draft.

Where should Eric Ebron (13:29) get taken in drafts this preseason and are people overlooking Hunter Henry's (19:26) upside? Was Derrick Henry's (33:17) late-season burst misleading, and does Kyler Murray (1:02:14) have a higher chance of producing elite QB1 numbers or being a total dud?

Is Michael Gallup being overlooked as the No. 2 in Dallas (6:40), who else is valuable in the Philly receiving corps (15:46), should you draft Jordan Howard/Miles Sanders (26:29), what about Adrian Peterson/Derrius Guice (31:32)? Thinking about playing in a superflex league or trying out Zero RB or Late-Round QB strategies? Get the lowdown on how to approach each one (44:14).

Brandon Funston of The Athletic joins us for some fun and we're mock drafting with Half-PPR settings to give you a look at our thought process when making picks. With the 2nd, 4th, and 5th picks, all three guys start off with running backs (6:14). Brandon gets his guy in the second round with Josh Jacobs (13:30) and we talk more about why he's the one guy he's going after in all drafts (55:09). Bobby goes QB & TE with back-to-back picks in the 5th/6th, but is that a sound strategy (25:58)? Will there be enough targets in Houston for all three WRs (33:04)? Devin Singletary could be the guy and LeSean McCoy could be cut (38:50), while Tags does the Vance dance with the situation in Pittsburgh (39:31).

We're continuing our preseason fantasy football coverage and in this episode, Denny Carter, owner of DraftDayConsultants.com, joins us to give the lowdown on who you can expect to bounce back after a down 2018. We go position-by-position starting with RB (4:57), WR (26:29), QB (47:33), and wrap things up at TE (54:58). Where will David Johnson finish among fantasy RBs (1:41), would you rather have Fournette or Bell for a full 16 games (6:24), why are people sleeping on A.J. Green, and is Aaron Rodgers a must-pick at his current ADP (47:33)?

The guys and our guest, Pat Fitzmaurice of TheFootballGirl.com, break down the players at each position they think have the best odds of breaking out in 2019. Justin Jackson (9:35) and Darrell Henderson (15:14) are potentially an injury away from high-level production, but one of them may be overhyped. Has Phillip Dorsett (46:19) finally developed into a viable fantasy receiver, would it be unwise to sleep on Jimmy Garoppolo's (56:31) upside, and does Vance McDonald (1:07:24) possess the potential to be a top-five TE?

Our duo is joined today by Rich Dotson, founder of DynastyNerds.com, and together they analyze the top dynasty values at each position. We start with a round of "Who Am I?" (1:06) and dive deep into that player's upside. The guys later debate on who has more dynasty value between Jameis Winston (10:09) and Matt Ryan (16:41) and then compare the long-term stock of James White (28:23) and Chris Carson (31:38). Is Darrell Henderson (42:16) worth a top-four pick in dynasty drafts, and is Jack Doyle's (46:04) price too low or just right? Does Marquise Brown (54:47) hold DeSean Jackson-like boom, or is he a dud in the making?

Is Ben Roethlisberger (6:03) exceptionally undervalued or highly overvalued, would it be wise to assume that Patrick Mahomes (14:29) will replicate last year's production, and is Baker Mayfield's (33:13) upside capped? Does Eric Ebron (45:42) have a chance at seeing 100 targets again, and how much value would Dallas Goedert (49:54) have if Zach Ertz was forced to miss time during the season?

Jake Ciely from The Athletic is with the gang as they dissect the Expert Consensus WR rankings and decide who is too high and too low. While we can all agree that James Washington (38:02) is being criminally overlooked and that the fantasy community is taking Jarvis Landry (1:02:57) at his ceiling, you should stay locked in and listen through to the end to catch all our fun debates and interesting takes. Tags is confident in DeVante Parker's (24:45) upside to Jake's chagrin, and Bobby defends Chris Godwin's (51:33) potential, but Tags isn't thrilled with his target volume.

We are joined by 2018's most accurate in-season expert, Matthew Hill from DataForce. Together, the trio examines which RBs may be ranked too high or too low on our half-PPR expert consensus rankings (ECR). The analysis is kicked off with diverging opinions on Damien Williams (8:08). Is the industry far too pessimistic on Leonard Fournette (16:38) and Ronald Jones (30:18), and is it a mistake to select Le'Veon Bell (45:51) within the top two rounds?

Mike Tagliere has taken the time to analyze every NFL team and break down which player on each squad is the biggest value in dynasty drafts relative to their ADP. Follow along as Bobby Sylvester tries to guess Tags' selection for each team. How many are you able to name, and can you beat Bobby's score? Who is the better bet for long-term production between D.J. Moore and Curtis Samuel (10:07), and is Drew Brees (15:58) nothing more than a glorified system QB? Would any team pick up Tyreek Hill (31:46) if the Chiefs release him and is JuJu Smith-Schuster (48:11) primed to regress this season?

Leonard Fournette (10:50) has crazy potential, but how far does his risk push down his value? Will the Titans continue to use Derrick Henry (15:02) as their bonafide workhorse, and why is James White (26:31) so undervalued? Plus, what should fantasy owners expect from Robert Foster (41:35) in 2019 and just how much upside does Marquise Brown (50:00) have this season?

Davis Mattek from Swolecast hops into a mock draft with us on today's show. Tags kicks off the festivities by selecting Ezekiel Elliott (4:02) second overall, Davis nabs David Johnson (4:21) with the 10th pick, and Bobby swiped Travis Kelce (4:47) at the 12th spot.

The guys execute a dynasty rookie draft and analyze their picks along the way. Bobby takes N'Keal Harry (2:22) first overall, while Tags selects Josh Jacobs (2:59) second overall. Is the Rams' high selection of Darrell Henderson (13:39) an indication of how they feel about Todd Gurley's health, and how much long-term value does Ryquell Armstead (30:01) have as Leonard Fournette's backup? Listen until the end to find out who each of them selected!
Our duo has returned to provide their immediate insight on the NFL Draft. We break down each skill position and analyze the dynasty viability of the most fantasy-relevant rookies. Josh Jacobs (6:13 and 9:22) should receive more volume than any other rookie RB and the Bears appear to have big plans for David Montgomery (14:35). Is N'Keal Harry (23:41) primed to be the top dynasty rookie wideout and will Marquise Brown (30:47) benefit from what projects to be a shoddy Ravens defense? The Cardinals are motivated to give Kyler Murray (43:19) every opportunity to succeed, but will Josh Rosen (45:25) start over Ryan Fitzpatrick right away after being traded to Miami? Was drafting T.J. Hockenson (52:49) eighth overall a wise move for Detroit, and what are our biggest takeaways from the draft outside of the skill position players (57:55)? Sponsors:

The NFL draft is now just days away and we're covering everything you need to know about what could go down on day one. Joining us to give the lowdown is Kyle Yates of The Fantasy Footballers. Most people believe they know what's going to happen with the No. 1 pick, but we're talking through why Kyler Murray might be the guy (3:22). Draft day trades are a big part of the excitement and we're looking at what top 10 teams could make moves (9:44) and which middle-to-late round teams could trade out of their picks (15:25). Could Montez Sweat's heart condition push him out of the first round (16:43) and is Titus Howard the surprise pick of day one (22:14)? We're closing out the show discussing the most popular prop bets and giving our over/unders (48:38).

We're playing GM, making trades, and picking players based on what we believe the teams will do come Thursday. What happens to the draft if the Cardinals take Bosa at 1 (6:28)? How far will Quinnen Williams fall (13:37), the Bills take the first wide receiver off the board (27:10), and the Packers go best player available despite having no need for the player they go with (36:02).

With each passing day, we get closer to the NFL draft and that also means dynasty leaguers are getting closer to their big days as well. We’re continuing our positional coverage of the incoming rookies and we’re tackling the WRs (4:20) & TEs (40:46). Joining us to give his thoughts is Travis May of Rotoviz. Should Hakeem Butler be in the top tier (4:50) and who would the guys take as the top WR (9:31)? Does Parris Campbell deserve more attention (19:50) and is Kelvin Harmon in his own tier (22:29)? Who are the deeper WRs to pay attention to (31:51) and which tight ends make the most impact for fantasy right away (40:59)?

However, our duo kicks off this episode with their thoughts on the Jordan Howard trade (4:40) and the return of the listener mailbag (10:24). Is Miles Sanders (28:20) the best bet of all RBs to produce if he gets the chance to play, how much upside does Bryce Love (42:43) have, and are pundits overrating Trayveon Williams (49:17)? Will Kyler Murray (50:48) likely be the first overall pick in two-QB dynasty rookie drafts and should the Dolphins take Drew Lock (1:01:18) if he falls to them? Sponsors:

The NFL Draft is in under a month, but we're taking the opportunity now to start getting all dynasty players prepared as we take you through our thoughts while running two separate mock drafts. Before we jump into the fun, Jared Cook signed with the Saints (1:14) and Rob Gronkowski decided to retire (2:20). Find out how that impacts fantasy owners and what the tight end landscape now looks like. Should you go best player available or fill a position of need early on (14:23)? Does it make sense to draft a QB early (22:47)? Don't forget about Marqise Lee in Jacksonville (37:57). The Packers may still start Jamaal Williams (39:18), and David Moore is an upside bench stash (45:54).

The guys examine both fantasy and reality's biggest winners and losers from the NFL free agency period. Playing in the Saints' offense is a huge boon to Latavius Murray's (7:14) value, and Damien Williams' (20:10) success late last season might have had more to do with the Chiefs' system than his talent. Baker Mayfield's (30:16) dynasty stock gets a big boost thanks to Odell Beckham Jr.'s arrival in Cleveland, but what does DeVante Parker's (46:22) value look like with Ryan Fitzpatrick in Miami, and what exactly is the Giants' (56:52) vision for the future?

Our dynamic duo conducts a mock draft for us now that the biggest fantasy-relevant free agents have signed with their new teams. However, we first break down Golden Tate's (2:37) new landing spot and how it affects his value. Tags then kicks off the half-PPR, 12-team draft by selecting Julio Jones 10th overall (4:16) and Bobby nabs Odell Beckham with the 12th pick (5:37). Does O.J. Howard (12:21) have more dynasty value than Travis Kelce, should redraft players fully avoid Kareem Hunt (22:24), and do the Dolphins intend to trade for Josh Rosen (27:47)?

The guys come together for a super-sized show to share their initial thoughts on every recent fantasy relevant transaction that has taken place. To lead off the show, we break down the Odell Beckham trade (4:04) and how it shakes up the fantasy landscape for both the Giants and Browns. How good of a fit are the Jets for Le'Veon Bell (17:18), will Nick Foles (29:50) succeed in Jacksonville, and what can we expect from John Brown (34:49) in Buffalo? Does DeSean Jackson's return to Philly help or hurt Alshon Jeffery (44:38) and can Damien Williams (58:19) hold off Carlos Hyde (1:00:31) from stealing away the Chiefs' starting RB gig? Lastly, has Alvin Kamara's (1:08:16) value changed much with Latavius Murray (1:06:17) now replacing Mark Ingram in New Orleans? Sponsors:

We give our quick thoughts on how the Antonio Brown trade affects the fantasy landscape. How will playing in Oakland affect his value (1:24), is JuJu Smith-Schuster's (7:35) value helped or hurt by Brown's departure, and are Ben Roethlisberger (10:40) and Derek Carr (12:11) starter-caliber fantasy quarterbacks in 2019?
We take a look at where 2019's top free agents might be heading this offseason alongside our guest, Eliot Crist from The Quant Edge. The guys predict where Antonio Brown (5:26) and Odell Beckham (10:18) may get traded to and discuss where Le'Veon Bell (21:41) could land. Would Tyrod Taylor (14:10) be a better fit for Jacksonville than Nick Foles (12:32), and are the Colts the best team for John Brown (33:50)? As the show draws to a close, the trio examines where the top non-skill position free agents could end up (43:48).

How might the loss of Saints DT Sheldon Rankins affect the Rams' running game (11:56) and does Michael Thomas' (16:50) price hurt his viability in cash games.

We go headfirst into the action as we analyze each of this weekend's playoff games and identify which players are the best cash game or GPP options. You can't go wrong paying up for either Patrick Mahomes (5:04) or Andrew Luck (5:40) in cash games and both of their tight ends (21:08) figure to be the top two plays at the position. If you're unable to roster both Todd Gurley and Ezekiel Elliott (30:37) then who should you spend big on and is it wise to fade Tom Brady (44:04) in the playoffs? Also, just how high is Alvin Kamara's (58:56) upside against the Eagles and is Darren Sproles (1:01:02) a viable GPP play?

Today's show is spent diving straight into the first round of playoff games and giving our DFS thoughts on each relevant player in all four matchups. Andrew Luck (5:38) appears to be a must-play QB in what should be a high-scoring game, and on the other side, Lamar Miller (13:27) has a great price, but faces a tough matchup. Ezekiel Elliott (31:24) should dominate against what has recently become a soft Seahawks run defense, but his teammate Amari Cooper (36:47) may lack the consistency for fantasy players to fully trust him in cash games. Melvin Gordon's (49:40) viability may come down to his health and Jordan Howard (1:00:31) can be a sneaky good play based on his recent volume and a great matchup. Sponsors:

How might the recent news regarding Antonio Brown (8:43) affect his draft stock, should fantasy owners still expect Christian McCaffrey (22:08) to handle the same workload next year, and how high should Travis Kelce (24:17) be taken?

Dan Harris joins the fun as we unite all three hosts for an end-of-season show filled with tons of laughs, pop culture references, and solid insight on some of fantasy football's top performers. When might Patrick Mahomes get drafted next year (10:28), is Corey Davis (26:21) on the cusp of breaking out in 2019, and can Amari Cooper (38:11) be a top-three WR moving forward? Looking back upon the year that was, we examine which high-end player was the ultimate underdog (44:15), who the top late-round sleeper (54:37) was, and which athlete most deserved to be named the fantasy MVP (1:18:35).
In today's show, our crew shares their insight on their favorite cash and GPP plays for the final week of the NFL regular season. Travis Kelce (7:27 & 29:53) appears to be a must-play TE, C.J. Anderson's (14:40) matchup is slightly concerning, and Davante Adams' (20:47) consistency is worth paying up for. How good of a GPP play is DeAndre Hopkins (38:56) against Jalen Ramsey and is Aaron Rodgers (54:40) truly having a down year? Sponsors:

In our final Sunday recap show of the 2018 NFL season, we take a look at each game from Saturday and Sunday afternoon and analyze how the outcomes affect the fantasy landscape moving forward. One of the most surprising Championship Week performances was from C.J. Anderson (1:23), who was less than a week removed from being a free agent. Where might Baker Mayfield (20:03) and Amari Cooper (25:04) be drafted next season, what does the future hold for Matthew Stafford (32:21) and the rest of the Lions, and is Carolina giving Christian McCaffrey (51:07) too many touches?

Joe Holka joins us today for our DFS show and chats with us about our top cash game and GPP plays. We give our thoughts on Josh Gordon (1:41) leaving the Patriots after violating the NFL's substance abuse policy again and later evaluate who might gain relevance with his departure (39:53). The projected game script is favorable for Josh Allen (18:12) to produce, we debate Christian McCaffrey's (19:56) usefulness with Taylor Heinicke under center, and the guys praise Davante Adams (31:58) as a top option this week. Who is the better play between Zach Ertz and Eric Ebron (42:57) and would John Kelly (56:57) be a must-play in cash games if Todd Gurley sits? Sponsors:

Jeff Ratcliffe from Pro Football Focus hops in with us as we break down our rankings and give our thoughts on which borderline players you should start and sit during the fantasy finals. Who should fantasy owners trust the most between Damien Williams, Jamaal Williams, and Leonard Fournette (7:59), how high should John Kelly (14:32) be ranked if Todd Gurley sits, and what do we make of Mike Williams, Josh Reynolds (31:17), and Curtis Samuel (33:23) this week? Was it a mistake to draft Aaron Rodgers (40:57) early in drafts and what can we expect from him against the Jets? We finish off the show with a few intriguing bold predictions (57:24). Sponsors:

Welcome to Championship Week! Our dynamic duo spends today's show examining the top spot-starts for the fantasy football finals. We kick things off by breaking down the latest news on the injuries to Aaron Jones (3:30), Ito Smith (4:52), and Todd Gurley (6:49), then dive into the potential return of Hunter Henry (7:29). The guys debate whether John Kelly (12:05) should be this week's top pickup. DaeSean Hamilton's (30:21) high target volume when he starts makes him a viable WR option and Robby Anderson (36:36) can be relied upon as a desperation play because of his upside. The show concludes with a few interesting rounds of fact or fiction (49:31). Sponsors:

Congratulations if you survived week 15 as we saw some players get injured early, while others simply left owners out in the cold. Things weren't ugly everywhere though, as Kenny Golladay re-emerged in a plus matchup (33:02) and Derrick Henry went off again (50:34). We're going game by game discussing key takeaways and more importantly, what we can expect from all the key players heading into the championship round for most fantasy leagues. What do we make of Kenyan Drake's lack of carries (5:06), what is Jamaal Williams' value moving forward (7:58), what happens with Damien Williams and Spencer Ware (9:19), can you trust players from struggling teams like the Browns (20:02), Bills (31:25), Raiders, and Bengals (38:43)?

Justin MacMahan from Daily Fantasy Insider joins the gang for today's show where we share our favorite DFS cash game and GPP plays at each position. Josh Johnson's (12:18) rushing may provide him a solid enough floor for both cash game and GPP use and Aaron Jones' (23:55) talent and upside make him ideal for tournaments. Plus, Vernon Davis (45:31) still has a lot more gas left in the tank than you might think and Randall Cobb's (56:37) tasty DB matchup makes him an ideal tournament play. Lastly, can Zach Zenner (1:02:45) get enough touches to be a sneaky GPP option? Sponsors:

Joe Pisapia, author of the Fantasy Black Book series, hops in with us as we scour through our fantasy rankings and break down which borderline players should be given the nod in your lineups this week. If he plays, should you consider benching Odell Beckham (5:43) because of how banged up he is, is it worth seeing if lightning can strike twice with Derrick Henry (17:01), and is Courtland Sutton (31:22) finally ready to start producing as Denver's top wideout? Does Josh Reynolds (35:53) carry enough upside to make him a viable dart throw and who is the better QB streamer between Josh Allen (51:42) and Nick Foles (52:56)? Sponsors:

Justin Boone of theScore joins the guys today and together we share our top waiver wire adds of the week for each position. Damien Williams (7:36) deserves your attention as the probable leader of the Chiefs backfield if Spencer Ware sits, but are Derrick Henry and Jalen Richard (20:11) even better RB options if they are still available in your league? Has Curtis Samuel (33:59) become Carolina's top wideout, is Josh Allen (35:23) a streamer-worthy option against the Lions, and can fantasy owners trust Vernon Davis (46:47) this week? We finish things off right with some fact or fiction (53:03). Sponsors:

Today, we analyze each game that took place before Sunday night to extract the most notable fantasy nuggets from them all. Should Derrick Henry's (6:31) outlook be adjusted after running wild on the Jaguars, are there any Packers receivers (23:07) who fantasy owners can trust outside of Davante Adams, and will Lamar Jackson (26:53) keep the Ravens' starting QB job if he's healthy? Should you actually consider benching Drew Brees (37:38) next week and just how impactful has moving to Dallas been for Amari Cooper's (54:58) value going into next season? Sponsors:

Matthew Freedman of FantasyLabs joins the crew today as we share our top DFS plays for both cash games and GPPs. Pittsburgh's run-friendly system and Jaylen Samuels' (9:27) receiving chops make it hard to stray from him. Is Justin Jackson (18:32) truly the lead back for the Chargers and what are his odds of scoring double-digit fantasy points (21:56)? DeAndre Hopkins (32:05) offers a fantastic combination of safety and upside for a lower price than other high-end options, Antonio Brown (36:09) might be set up to disappoint relative to his cost, and Jared Cook (50:58) figures to be a target hog with relatively low ownership.

We scour through our rankings and give you the lowdown on which guys you should bench or insert into your lineups. First, we tackle the Emmanuel Sanders (1:38) injury news and discuss who will benefit the most in Denver. Will the Steelers really employ a running back committee this week (10:29) and is Curtis Samuel (29:31) a lock or are Devin Funchess' involvement and Cam Newton's shoulder bug concerns? How will Mitchell Trubisky's return and a matchup with the Rams affect Trey Burton's production (45:15) and what are our bold predictions heading into Week 14 (51:58)? Sponsors:

Brandon Marianne Lee of The Athletic joins us as we shine light on this week's top waiver pickups. Jaylen Samuels (9:46) is still worth scooping up even with James Conner's high probability of playing, but do players like Justin Jackson (12:18) and LeGarrette Blount (17:23), who will both probably start next week, deserve more or less attention? Does DeVante Parker (38:02) have enough upside to make himself worth a pickup, are there any major differences between Lamar Jackson (44:41) and Josh Allen (45:47), and does Dan Arnold (53:54) deserve your attention now that he's New Orleans' top TE? To finish things off, we tackle a listener mailbag question (58:19) regarding the best low-cost RBs and WRs in dynasty leagues. Sponsors:

Michael Moore (Pro Football Focus) is in with us to help analyze each early and late afternoon game from a fantasy perspective. At the start of the show, we dive into the fallout from this weekend's big news regarding Kareem Hunt (1:15) and project what Spencer Ware's rest of season value is like. Has Tre'Quan Smith (8:00) become droppable and how does his value compare to Courtland Sutton (19:50) and Josh Reynolds (42:43)? In addition, is it time to downgrade Aaron Rodgers (28:51) to streamer status, should we view Tevin Coleman (50:47) as nothing more than a matchup play, and who the heck is Jeff Wilson (1:00:01)?

Today we are joined by Doug Norrie from DFSR.com to break down our top DFS cash game and GPP plays for this week. Jared Goff's (10:54) matchup against Detroit might be too tasty to pass up, but would it make sense to save money and spend low at RB on Lamar Miller (22:50) and should DFS players be trying to pay up for Tyreek Hill (31:42)? Jarvis Landry (44:08) comes with some risk, but is his talent and upside worth taking a chance on in cash games? Is Cameron Brate's (48:57) upside capped or was O.J. Howard's presence holding him back, and is Baker Mayfield's (1:03:42) floor and efficiency worth banking on in GPPs against a tough Texans defense? Sponsors:

With Marlon Mack (7:20) still in concussion protocol, will Jordan Wilkins or Nyheim Hines be the main beneficiary if Mack is out, are Jordan Howard (21:37) and Doug Martin (23:48) both startable options, and should fantasy owners fear Larry Fitzgerald's (35:49) matchup? Is it time for everyone to acknowledge Adam Humphries' (40:37) consistency and how high is Lamar Jackson's (53:46) ceiling? Sponsors:

Pat Fitzmaurice from TheFootballGirl.com joins today's show and together we give our thoughts on this week's top waiver wire options for each position. How big will Justin Jackson's (4:20) role be without Melvin Gordon, who is the preferred pickup between Josh Adams and Gus Edwards (18:09), and what concerns should fantasy owners have regarding Curtis Samuel (28:38)? In addition, which defenses can do the most damage in the fantasy playoffs (41:08) and has Baker Mayfield (50:21) already established himself as a top-10 QB?

We're here to put each game under the microscope and share our biggest fantasy takeaways from Week 12's matchups. Nick Chubb (3:02) and the Cleveland Browns appear to have a bright future ahead, Amari Cooper (16:27) was definitively the standout player on Thanksgiving, and Adam Humphries (26:43) strongly deserves your attention. How should we view Doug Baldwin (46:54) and Tyler Lockett moving forward though, how much time could Melvin Gordon (56:08) miss and who would benefit the most from his absence, and is it time to drop our optimism regarding Courtland Sutton (1:01:49)?

We break down this week's best DFS options on today's show. Nick Mullens (6:26) has a nice shot at hitting value against Tampa Bay, Christian McCaffrey's (16:57) ceiling may be lower than it has been in recent weeks, and Adam Humphries (30:19) figures to be a solid value option in cash games. Cameron Brate (36:36) is far and away the most obvious TE play, but who else at the position heavily deserves your attention (38:08)? Before concluding the show, we share our top three plays for the Thanksgiving slate (49:51).

On today's show we are joined by Doug Orth from FF Today and together we examine which borderline options you should insert into your lineup or sit on your bench. Should fantasy owners have full confidence in Marlon Mack (8:15) and Dalvin Cook (10:03) coming off relatively lackluster performances, is Tre'Quan Smith (25:55) suddenly a top-20 WR option, and does Taylor Gabriel (39:05) have a big week in store or is he too far down Chicago's receiving totem pole? In addition, can Chris Herndon (45:25) be considered a TE1 this week and will Russell Wilson's (54:00) lack of pass attempts catch up with him against Carolina?

Moore (18:20) the undisputed top wideout fantasy owners should target, and does Lamar Jackson deserve more consideration than Jameis Winston (34:59) if both are available? Also, does Eli Manning (41:52) have viability as a streamer and will Le'Veon Bell (55:34) be a first-round draft pick next preseason?

The Saints crushed the Eagles, Alex Smith was knocked out for the season, and Lamar Jackson started at QB, but ran with the ball 27 times! We're back with our weekly recap and one question some of you may be asking is, who is Gus Edwards (1:34)? Chris Carson appears to be the top dog as long as he's healthy (8:37), Kerryon Johnson got hurt so what should we make of the Lions RB depth (16:43), and is D.J. Moore better for fantasy than Devin Funchess at this point (20:15)? What's going to happen in Tennessee if Mariota misses time (24:55) and what are the impacts of Alex Smith's season-ending injury (39:56)? Phillip Lindsay continues to beast (1:00:08), here comes Keenan Allen's second-half surge (1:02:10), and it's time to move Josh Adams up the rankings (1:06:12).

Should DFS players do whatever they can to fit Zach Ertz (40:18) into their lineup and is Doug Martin (53:57) a secret GPP weapon or a dud in the making?

Who is the better QB play between Ryan Fitzpatrick and Mitch Trubisky (11:29), is Alex Collins (20:04) too underrated, and how do fantasy owners approach the Seattle backfield (27:26)?

Is Jeff Heuerman (38:13) or Ricky Seals-Jones the best widely available tight end streamer and is Doug Martin (57:29) arguably the top RB add this week if he's available in your league?

One of the biggest performances from a Week 10 that was chalked full of offense was Eric Ebron's (3:02) three-touchdown game, but is his hyper-efficiency sustainable? Speaking of three-score outings, was Christian McCaffery's (16:29) huge game on Thursday less impressive than it may have seemed? On Sunday, we also witnessed the continuation of Tom Brady's (34:36) struggles on the road, Marlon Mack (41:55) getting held to just 29 rushing yards, and the big Aaron Jones (55:41) breakout game we've all been waiting for.

Davis Mattek from Swolecast is in with us today while we share our top DFS plays for Week 10. Is Aaron Rodgers (6:06) or Patrick Mahomes (8:12) the preferred quarterback to pay up for in cash games? Is Tevin Coleman (20:35) a lock to hit value and does Chris Conley's (34:44) price make him an automatic play if Sammy Watkins is out? Plus, Marquez Valdes-Scantling (37:26) appears to be an excellent value option, but are both Doug Baldwin (55:34) and Blake Bortles (1:03:41) solid GPP upside plays, or are they bound to bust?

In today's episode, our crew dishes out their fantasy insight to make your lineup decisions a little easier this week. With that being said, the show kicks off with our analysis of the impact Dez Bryant's (2:17) arrival in New Orleans will have. Can Mitch Trubisky (17:54) rebound from a poor outing last week and is it time to panic about Mark Ingram (25:09)? Also, is it crazy to think that DeSean Jackson (34:37) can be a WR2 against Washington and has Rob Gronkowski (53:21) fallen from must-start status?

Sigmund Bloom (FootballGuys) is along for the ride as we give our takes on our favorite free agent pickups at each position this week. Can the Browns be trusted to be smart and give a player of Duke Johnson's (18:34) talent the touches he deserves, is Josh Adams (21:51) the Eagles' likely RB starter moving forward, and has Marquez Valdes-Scantling (31:06) started solidifying himself as a WR3? Jack Doyle's rest of season fantasy value (45:06) is thoroughly examined and the show concludes with us placing a few players under the microscope in our Buy/Sell segment (56:18).

Week 9 saw a battle between two championship contenders in the Rams and Saints, but there are plenty of other games to run through to break down the fantasy takeaways. The Raiders are worse than we thought they could be (1:28), the Vikings running back situation looks to be complicated (3:47), and Jarvis Landry may never be the wide receiver that fantasy owners hope that he is (7:21). Now might be the best time to buy Tarik Cohen (15:35), should we reconsider Kerryon Johnson's value (37:43), and should we worry about Adrian Peterson (40:53)? Julio Jones and the Falcons are flying high (43:59) and is Matt Ryan a top 3 quarterback the rest of the season (45:32)? James Conner finishes with another strong day so does Le'Veon Bell even play again this season (52:18)?

Our dynamic duo shares their top GPP and cash game DFS plays for this week's games. Is Patrick Mahomes (5:02) the top QB option, what should cash game players be concerned about when considering Alvin Kamara (16:35), and has Adam Thielen (25:00) become a must-play option regardless of his cost? How good of a play is Sammy Watkins (37:21) if Tyreek Hill sits and is Lamar Miller (57:52) a sneaky good GPP option? Sponsors:

On today's show, the guys analyze which borderline startable options should get the nod or ride the pine. Is Alex Smith (8:24) a viable option against the Falcons, does LeSean McCoy (19:01) have any chance at overcoming the Bears' tough run defense, and do experts largely have DeSean Jackson ranked too high (35:24)? Should fantasy owners feel confident plugging Calvin Ridley (38:22) back into their lineups and does Hayden Hurst (49:31) have TE1 potential down the stretch? Sponsors:

Our crew breaks down a wild NFL trade deadline and shares their insight into how each notable trade alters the fantasy football landscape. The show kicks off with analysis on how Demaryius Thomas' trade to Houston (00:31) affects both the Texans' and Broncos' offenses. We later pivot to what Ty Montgomery's trade to Baltimore (6:52) means for the Packers and Ravens and then thoroughly examine how the Eagles' acquisition of Golden Tate (10:40) shakes up the wide receiver totem pole in Philadelphia and Detroit. A special surprise segment is also in store towards the end of the show, so be sure to stay tuned until the end!
On today's show, our duo discusses their top waiver wire options heading into Week 9. Before jumping straight into the fantasy free agent chatter though, we touch on the Tyreek Hill injury (5:53) and share our thoughts on Patrick Mahomes and the greatness of Kansas City's offense (7:01). What are the chances that Elijah McGuire (15:19) ends up starting for the Jets, who is the top WR pickup between Keke Coutee and DeVante Parker (22:21), and is Jack Doyle (38:44) a locked-in TE1 the rest of the way? We conclude the show with a three-round midseason draft (44:40) based on which players we think are the best fantasy options for the rest of the year. Sponsors:

We kick off today's show by recognizing which players over the first eight weeks were the MVPs (3:17), who is most due for the biggest second half improvement (8:51), and who has been the most underrated (15:10) among many other awards. Did Josh Adams (24:36) become the lead man in Philadelphia's running back committee, is D.J. Moore (47:34) now a must-add option, and has James Conner (50:29) done enough to claim Pittsburgh's backfield once Le'Veon Bell returns? Sponsors:

Daily Fantasy Insider co-founder, Justin MacMahon, hops in with us as we break down Week 8's best DFS plays. Are Patrick Mahomes (10:53) and Todd Gurley (13:26) worth paying up for? Davante Adams (30:39) seems primed to tear apart the Rams' defensive backs, C.J. Uzomah (40:23) may be the best combination of matchup and price at the TE position, and Baker Mayfield (57:48) fully deserves your attention in GPPs. Sponsors:

In today's show, we supply the all the info you'll need to make the best lineup decisions entering Week 8. Before getting to the Start/Sit suggestions, our duo begins by breaking down the latest news and advises fantasy owners on the newest report regarding Dalvin Cook (4:24), who is likely out until Week 11. The guys analyze the potential of Rashaad Penny taking away even more work from Chris Carson in the immediate future (24:07), discuss the viability of T.J. Yeldon with the arrival of Carlos Hyde (27:02), and are in disbelief with how underrated Geronimo Allison (37:10) is across the industry. As the show draws to a close, we debate how startable the Colts D/ST (50:42) is this weekend and finish things off with a little game of Fact or Fiction (52:39). Sponsors:

Justin Boone from theScore teams up with us today to break down the top waiver pickups heading into Week 8. Tre'Quan Smith (8:55) appears to be the clear top choice among widely unowned WRs and Courtland Sutton (17:39) is now an intriguing stash with the trade rumors surrounding Demaryius Thomas. Moving on from wideouts, Doug Martin and Jalen Richard (30:53) are easily the primary RBs fantasy owners should target and it may be time to treat C.J. Uzomah (49:26) as a TE you should start most weeks. The end of the show is mainly spent discussing the fantasy football fallout of Amari Cooper's trade to the Cowboys (51:24) and a unique listener question regarding a vetoed trade (56:37). Sponsors:

Today's show is spent breaking down all of the zany action from a wild Week 7, but one of the most notable performances that stuck out to us came from Andrew Luck (4:15). How panicked should Melvin Gordon (18:12) owners be regarding his absence and has Kerryon Johnson (31:58) officially become a running back fantasy owners can confidently rely upon? How might the Patriots handle their tailback situation if Sony Michel (39:21) is sidelined for an extended period and what is the state of the Eagles' backfield (48:15)? Sponsors:

It's a fresh start with a new week of football in DFS and joining us to help nail down your cash and tournament lineups for the weekend is Jared Kwart of FantasyCruncher.com. It's a week where there may not be too many questions at certain positions as we all love Kirk Cousins taking on the Jets (2:45), Todd Gurley going against the 49ers (8:34) and Ezekiel Elliott taking on a terrible rush defense in Washington (9:47). Adam Thielen very well could be the must-play of the week (15:41) and the tight end position offers multiple quality plays (31:05). We wrap the show up covering GPP plays (39:18) and stacks to consider using (1:01:11).

We've got your back with an hour chalked full of our most notable starts and sits at each position. Andy Dalton (8:02) has obvious QB1 potential in a date with the Chiefs, but can Blake Bortles (14:16) be trusted against the Texans? Tarik Cohen (23:39) may have strong RB2 upside, but we don't share the same optimism for Corey Davis (35:03). Would it be crazy to play Zay Jones (46:26) if you're desperate and what should fantasy owners do with Jordan Reed (49:27)? Sponsors:

Pat Fitzmaurice from TheFootballGirl.com is in with us as we share our top waiver additions this week. However, we first give our thoughts on the trade rumors surrounding Amari Cooper (5:13) and project whether Adam Theilen (9:16) will finish as a top-three WR. Is Duke Johnson (24:56) worth picking up despite his volatility, should Tre'Quan Smith (32:28 & 34:30) be viewed as the top WR to claim entering Week 7, and is it time actually consider dropping Russell Wilson (53:51)?

Week 6 is just about wrapped up and we're here to give our instant reactions to the festivities. Doug Baldwin owners finally got the game they were looking for (7:44) and Peyton Barber put the brakes on the Ronald Jones train (9:25). Carlos Hyde is slowly losing his job (11:53) and Kenyan Drake has seemingly already lost his (13:41). Owners of Dalvin Cook continue to be let down (21:08), but his teammate, Adam Thielen, is now one of the best fantasy receivers in the game (23:27). Mitch Trubisky produced again and now is when you should sell him (43:36) while the Browns have a few intriguing buy pieces like David Njoku (48:49).

In today's show, we give you our favorite cash game and GPP DFS plays alongside Joe Holka from FantasyLabs. Does Christian McCaffrey's (11:47) combo of floor and price make him the perfect cash game RB to build around, and how concerning is Ezekiel Elliott's (15:42) lack of work in the passing game for cash games? Can this be the week to bank on Julio Jones (30:39) finally scoring a touchdown and is Corey Davis (53:20) worth using in GPPs despite a terrible matchup against Baltimore? Sponsors:

We band together with the Fantasy Footballers' very own Mike Wright to give you all the information you need to make the right lineup decisions this week. We first cover some news before diving into the thick of it and ponder the fallout of a potential LeSean McCoy (2:01) trade to the Eagles. Should you trust Andy Dalton (17:59) as a top-10 option and is Aaron Jones (30:06) an RB2 on Monday night? Is Amari Cooper (43:58) startable against Seattle and can fantasy owners insert Jared Cook (56:49) into their lineups with any confidence? Sponsors:

Michael Moore from Pro Football Focus comes on board with us as we offer our thoughts on the latest injury news, valuable waiver adds, and trade targets. Which Eagles RB will benefit the most from Jay Ajayi's ACL tear (3:51) and is Ronald Jones (14:42 & 15:53) in a prime spot to grab Tampa Bay's starting tailback job? Can fantasy owners depend on Keke Coutee (30:38) as a WR3 for the rest of the season, is it time to consider Joe Flacco (48:28) a dependable streamer, and should you still view Doug Baldwin (58:14) as a buy-low target after his one-yard outing on Sunday?

We're back to break down Sunday's exciting slate of action and give you our thoughts on how these matchups might affect the fantasy landscape moving forward. Blake Bortles (2:00) isn't any better than we thought and Marquez Valdes-Scantling (6:43) may have earned a larger role with his performance. Is it time to cut bait on Derrick Henry (24:20), how should James Conner (37:46) be ranked for the rest of the season, and how will Robert Woods fare if Cooper Kupp and Brandin Cooks (55:36) both miss time in the future?

We're dishing out DFS advice today, and Matthew Freedman of FantasyLabs.com is here with us to share his insight. Should DFS players consider using Patrick Mahomes (7:58) against the Jags, is T.J. Yeldon (14:06) a top RB play in cash games, and how viable is Jared Cook (32:37) in a tough matchup? Looking at GPPs, can Seattle's defense (43:13) be a worthy risk since they should be almost completely unowned and is Geronimo Allison (46:45) primed to excel if he's active?

Christopher Harris of HarrisFootball.com comes on with us as we rundown which players you should consider starting or sitting at each position. Before tackling Start/Sit advice, we analyze the latest news, including the newest development with Le'Veon Bell's holdout (2:42). Should Jared Goff (18:43) be started against a surprisingly stingy Seahawks defense, is Derrick Henry (29:30) finally a flex-worthy option this week, and can desperate fantasy owners turn to Austin Ekeler (38:40) as a sleeper start? Also, can Alshon Jeffery (48:02) overcome Minnesota's talented secondary, has the time come for Nick Vannett (58:12) to shine, and which other defenses are viable options if you can't nab the Titans D/ST (58:55)?

Author of the best-selling "Fantasy Black Book" series, Joe Pisapia, joins us as we break down which players fantasy owners should heavily consider adding to their rosters entering Week 5. Keke Coutee (8:09 & 11:17) received 15 targets in his debut, Nyheim Hines (22:05) might just be the back to own in Indy, and Jameis Winston (33:33) is a QB worth picking up and holding for the long-term. Winston's return also provides a healthy lift to Cameron Brate's (37:57) rest of season value, and we still cannot believe that John Brown (48:45) isn't owned everywhere. To finish the show, we quickly mention whether you should drop or keep several players (51:16) and swiftly touch on who we'll buy low (55:22) and sell high (57:05).

Also, is Ronald Jones (34:24) now the RB to own in Tampa Bay, and has Aaron Jones (45:58) become the Packers' primary back?

Week 4 started off with a bang Thursday night and we're following it up with our favorite DFS plays for the weekend. Joining us on the show is Daily Fantasy Insider co-founder, Christian Abbonizio. Whether you're playing cash games (1:48) or GPP tournaments (52:14), we've got the full rundown to help you build your lineups. Starting with our favorite QBs, using Baker Mayfield in cash games isn't a bad idea (2:28), Matthew Stafford offers quality upside with a safe floor (5:05), and Andy Dalton has a great game-script (7:47). This is the week to spend up at RB (15:40) and Ezekiel Elliott (17:07) is the guy you want. Cheaper options such as Giovani Bernard (25:34) and Marshawn Lynch (28:11) on DraftKings offer plenty of value. Are Jarvis Landry (31:55) and Kenny Golladay (32:27) must-plays?

Jake Ciely from The Athletic hops on with us as we examine which players fantasy owners should heavily consider starting or sitting this week. Before we jump into that though, our guys give their updated Super Bowl predictions (2:24). What should fantasy owners do with Russell Wilson (8:10) and is Kerryon Johnson (20:36) approaching must-start territory? Plus, Corey Davis' (37:33) enormous target share is too large to ignore, and we debate whether Ricky Seals-Jones' (55:00) production can improve this week with Josh Rosen starting under center.

Which oft-overlooked athletes emerged from Week 4 as players you should heavily consider adding to your squad? That's the question we've come to answer for you on today's show. Calvin Ridley (13:49) has moved onto everyone's radar after his three-touchdown performance, but Mike Williams (11:50) may be equally as deserving of your attention. Also, just how meaningful was Chris Carson's (38:46) 31-carry outing, and which potential sleepers should deep leaguers target (42:12)?

Another Sunday of high scoring affairs, tight matchups, breakout performances, dud outings, and devastating injuries is through. Before analyzing each of the day and afternoon games from a fantasy perspective, we wonder which 49ers are still weekly fantasy starters if Jimmy Garoppolo is out for the season (3:55) and whether it's time to drastically lower expectations for Amari Cooper (20:06). Also, should Sammy Watkins be viewed as a borderline WR2 moving forward (30:46), is Javorius "Buck" Allen (56:18) someone fantasy owners should feel comfortable starting regularly, and which Rams WR has the most favorable rest of season fantasy outlook (1:03:13)?

With Week 3 now underway, we discuss which players can be solid DFS plays for cash games and GPPs this weekend. Alex Smith (7:41) could provide nice value in a potential shootout with the Packers and Christian McCaffrey (17:58) should get all the touches he can handle in a plus matchup against Cincinnati. The big question is, can we trust Amari Cooper (38:03) considering how inconsistent his QB is? Also, David Johnson's (57:41) talent, price, and potentially low ownership all make him a viable tournament play, and we're rolling with a prolific pair of Saints as our locks of the week (1:01:13).

Our hosts team up with Brandon Marianne Lee of The Athletic to share our thoughts on which players you should consider starting or sitting in Week 3. Is it safe to start trusting Will Dissly (9:37) as a TE1, should you feel worried starting Kenny Golladay (28:49), and is there any reason to lack confidence in Matt Breida (36:37)? Also, Rashaad Penny (47:30) might finally be getting a leg up on Chris Carson, and we discuss the latest news on the Le'Veon Bell holdout (1:03:41).

Today we share which players fantasy owners should pick up as we head into Week 3, and Pat Fitzmaurice from The Football Girl joins us to give you his favorite waiver additions as well. However, we explore what Josh Gordon's fantasy value could be like in New England (3:53) before getting into nitty gritty. Giovani Bernard may be the obvious top pickup (9:47), but John Brown deserves your attention right after him (17:45). Also, does Gordon's departure in Cleveland increase Dez Bryant's chances of getting signed (31:16) and is Ryan Fitzpatrick a QB1 this week (46:03)? Lastly, which defenses should you consider streaming this week (50:52) and how should we view David Johnson (56:18) moving forward?

Our crew is back to break down every great and disappointing performance from each of Sunday's day games and give their immediate fantasy analysis. Is Patrick Mahomes a true QB1 for the rest of the season (3:10 & 12:27), how should fantasy owners view Chris Thompson moving forward (17:57), and is it time to view Quincy Enunwa as the Jets' top wideout (22:05)? Plus, is Antonio Callaway the Browns' real No. 2 option without Josh Gordon (39:30), how well can Nelson Agholor produce when Alshon Jeffery returns (49:42), and should you buy or sell on Kenny Golladay (59:48)?

Davis Mattek (host for Swolecast and TaekCast) joins forces with us as we all share our thoughts on which players make strong DFS plays. Ben Roethlisberger's high floor this week is worth paying up for (10:58) and Adrian Peterson figures to be a cheap source of guaranteed touches (19:35), but is it wrong to rank Emmanuel Sanders (27:07) above Demaryius Thomas (29:21)? In addition, Garrett Celek can be a sneaky GPP play (41:41), but can the same be said about Doug Martin (48:48), and is DeAndre Hopkins an overrated talent (53:38)? Sponsors:

Jeff Ratcliffe from Pro Football Focus hops on with us as we share our thoughts on which players we would consider either starting or sitting ahead of this week's matchups. Should Tom Brady owners look for alternative options this weekend (11:49) and is Jay Ajayi a glorified committee back or the bonafide top dog in that backfield (20:26)? Plus, should we panic about Amari Cooper (38:44), is Sammy Watkins already droppable (44:47), and are we overlooking Jack Doyle too much (53:57)? Sponsors:

With every game from Week 1 now in the books, which players would you be wise to snag from your league's waiver wire today? We're here to tackle that question for you in-depth, but the show kicks off with us breaking down the Greg Olsen (4:17), Aaron Rodgers (6:06), Delanie Walker (8:52), Leonard Fournette (14:19), and Doug Baldwin (15:13) injuries. How much FAAB should you spend on T.J. Yeldon (21:43), who the heck is Will Dissly (25:48), and can Ryan Fitzpatrick steal Jameis Winston's job (38:32)? Plus, will Phillip Lindsay (43:25) carry significant fantasy value moving forward, and did Jordan Wilkins do enough to keep Indy's starting RB job (46:29)?

Opening Sunday has come and gone, and it was one we likely won't forget for a long time! Joining us as our new Sunday co-host is FantasyPros writer, Dan Harris. Before diving into Sunday's games en masse, we take a small look at Thursday night's opener and analyze whether Jay Ajayi's productive performance alters his season-long outlook (4:34). Is Le'Veon Bell's return impacted by James Conner's impressive outing, and where should Conner be ranked moving forward (20:58)? Also, have we been undervaluing DeSean Jackson (35:01) and Mike Evans all along (35:51), how wrong were we about Tyreek Hill (43:38), and can Washington's offense be a lot more viable for fantasy than we thought (52:47)?

Football is back! Doug Norrie from Daily Fantasy Sports Rankings is with us as we give our favorite cash game and GPP plays for Week 1. Before digging in, our crew takes some time to explain what DFS is (8:41) and how players should approach cash games and GPPs (9:21). How well can we expect James Conner to perform if Le'Veon Bell is absent on Sunday (14:39) and how much consideration should you give Leonard Fournette and Joe Mixon in cash games (26:44)? Are A.J. Green and Keenan Allen (42:01) two wideouts you should build your DFS lineups around, and is Andy Dalton (59:44) someone you can rely on in cash games this week?

The NFL season is finally upon us! We'll be here before the first game each week to give you our thoughts on which guys you should start in your lineup or sit on your bench for the week. Before getting into the meat of the show, we break down some depth chart news and give you the latest on the Le'Veon Bell holdout (15:43). Should fantasy owners be concerned about Philip Rivers' historically underwhelming performances against Kansas City (25:59), and how problematic will Tennessee's run defense be for Kenyan Drake (32:47)? Also, is Sterling Shepard a startable wideout against Jacksonville (53:33), and which tight end should you be looking to stream if you're in a pinch (58:06)?

With the regular season quickly approaching, our hosts explore which commonly unowned players you would be wise to hold on to. However, we start the show going over the Khalil Mack trade (3:25 & 13:51) and debating who steps up in Jerick McKinnon's absence (7:24). Why does DeVante Parker (22:32) deserve to be rostered in all fantasy leagues? Does Anthony Miller have more upside than Chris Godwin (30:18)? How high is Corey Clement's potential (45:16) in Philadelphia if Jay Ajayi were to miss time?

Whether you've drafted already or not, we're talking late-round fliers that are worth stashing to start the season. Joining us for this show is Sigmund Bloom of Footballguys. The season is just about here and with that, we're looking at what to make of Royce Freeman sitting the final game of the preseason (3:36) and Ronald Jones's struggles. We then take turns naming our favorite fliers to snag at the end of drafts starting with T.J. Yeldon (9:12). Sigmund explains what you should be looking for in RB stashes (10:46), and we touch on a few other stashes like Anthony Miller (21:20) and Cordarrelle Patterson (25:24). To wrap up the show, we're running through our favorite QB streamers starting in Week 1 (38:36), how to pick your kickers and who's worth drafting (41:21), and what your strategy should be when considering defenses (47:18).

Justin Boone from theScore is with us as we share which players we are actively targeting and who we are steering clear of. Patrick Mahomes (14:17) may have high upside, but should his tough early-season schedule dampen your outlook? Does Alex Collins (27:48) have a stranglehold on the Ravens' starting running back job? With his ADP swiftly rising, does Amari Cooper (42:26) still have enough equity built into his ADP? Is Trey Burton (50:38) the tight end to aim for if you've missed out on the elite options? At the end of the show, our hosts go rapid fire and name players at each position they would want on their bench.

Does Russell Wilson carry more risk than people realize (6:05), will Kerryon Johnson's talent earn him the lion's share of Detroit's backfield touches (18:32), and should fantasy owners fully buy into Marquise Goodwin's upside (30:30)? We end the show analyzing the latest news and ponder how long Alshon Jeffery's injury woes will linger (34:29) and whether fantasy owners should be concerned about Adam Thielen's leg injury (42:25).

Football Diehards' Bob Harris is with us as we shed some light on which players you will surely regret drafting. However, before we jump into that, we just can't understand why the Broncos have decided not to start Royce Freeman (8:13). It's hard to trust Devonta Freeman (25:29) with how much work he cedes to Tevin Coleman, Derrick Henry's (36:04) current situation is very similar to what he experienced last year, and Alshon Jeffery (47:41) is unjustly being taken as a top 30 WR.

Mike Wright from The Fantasy Footballers joins the crew as we each share which players could possess league-winning upside. But first, we decide how far Keelan Cole (5:00) should move up the rankings in the wake of Marqise Lee's season-ending injury. During the meat of the show, we all agree that New England's depleted receiving corps leaves Rob Gronkowski (19:50) with league-winning ability. Does Joe Mixon (25:41) truly possess elite potential behind a subpar offensive line, though? Also, Mark Ingram (33:40) may seemingly be primed to be an RB1 upon his return, but is Corey Davis' (55:48) upside limited by both his quarterback and the smorgasbord of other receiving options in Tennessee?

4for4.com's John Paulsen comes on the show to help shed some light on 12 different players who carry plenty of risk. What should we think of Andrew Luck's unimpressive preseason performances (12:32), how often will the 49ers use Jerick McKinnon (23:02), and is it wrong to underestimate Juju Smith-Schuster this year (36:14)? The episode ends with a segment on running back battles and which back fantasy owners should target (55:11). Will Sony Michel end up being the lead back in New England at some point (1:00:45) and what happens in the Green Bay backfield once Aaron Jones returns (1:04:38)?

It's the show you've been hoping for as we have Matt Harmon, creator of Reception Perception, and now an analyst for Yahoo! Sports, joining us to chat about wide receiver tiers. We're taking a deep dive to help you through all your questions regarding the position. Kicking things off at the top of the discussion is the first tier where their's little disagreement with who belongs in the group (6:01). The first question though is where does Keenan Allen fit (8:26)? We're also answering if the Vikings can support two WRs in the top 3 tiers (12:04), is T.Y. Hilton a better option than Tyreek Hill (13:55), why Matt doesn't like Amari Cooper (18:29), why Allen Robinson should be targeted (29:31), what should we think of Sammy Watkins (43:30), why Jordy Nelson shouldn't be ignored (49:39). We end the show talking about OUR guys that we personally want on our teams (55:18).

We spend today's show creating one fantasy roster full of players who are poised to bounce back from disappointing seasons last year, and another fantasy roster that is filled with players who we won't let burn us again. Drew Brees is primed for positive touchdown regression (13:55), Joe Mixon has superstar potential (17:19), and Amari Cooper should benefit as the focal point of a John Gruden offense (27:08). In contrast, Isaiah Crowell likely won't capitalize on whatever touches he receives (38:05), free agent Dez Bryant can't be trusted at this point (44:21), and Jay Ajayi's touches and talent are lacking (49:07). The end of the show is dedicated to your most commonly asked questions (54:24).

Should fantasy owners feel comfortable drafting Tyreek Hill as a high-end WR2 (10:58), and is taking Chris Hogan in the fifth round a reach (18:39)? Plus, will Latavius Murray be more than just a handcuff (41:21), and who is the WR to own in Jacksonville (43:18)?

Shedding light on sleepers who offer lots of upside with minimal cost is the focus of today's show, but first we gauge whether Adrian Peterson will have substantial fantasy value in Washington (3:30). Why are people still snoozing on Jets starting RB Bilal Powell (14:18)? Mike Williams may be one of the biggest steals in fantasy drafts this year (28:11) and James White could be in for a much bigger season than folks realize (37:37). Ronald Jones failing to claim Tampa Bay's starting RB job (57:35) and Ameer Abdullah starting in Detroit's second preseason game (1:04:26) are just a couple of the topics we discuss towards the end of the show regarding last weekend's NFL action.

Which late-round players have the potential to offer great production for little to no draft cost? John Ross should command a healthy chunk of targets as the Bengals' No. 2 WR (13:50), and Dante Pettis may have a shot to be San Francisco's best fantasy receiver (31:13), but can Brandon Marshall be a top-30 WR if he starts for Seattle (24:56)? We later spend the end of the show debating players we ranked differently, like Mitch Trubisky (41:49) and Derrick Henry (48:06).

We're scouring through our running back rankings and analyzing how we have them tiered. Should Ezekiel Elliott be taken after Leonard Fournette and Saquon Barkley (11:30), is Christian McCaffrey's upside capped (19:24), and will Jay Ajayi be a much larger part of Philadelphia's offense this season (30:35)? Towards the end, we name some late-round backs who might be worth targeting, like Jeremy Hill (56:46) and Doug Martin (58:57).

Today, we highlight which players present the best value from Round 3-7 in half PPR drafts. However, the show kicks off with some notable news from around the league concerning DeVante Parker's broken finger (1:30) and the Eagles' injury issues (6:28). During the meat of the show, our hosts debate whether LeSean McCoy is a value pick in the third round (21:26), but agree that mid-round picks like Sony Michel (44:58) and Marshawn Lynch (48:57) should outproduce their ADP. Towards the end, we open up the Listener Mailbag to tackle some of your pressing fantasy questions (57:18).

Andy Holloway from the Fantasy Footballers joins us to discuss which players you should steer clear of in fantasy drafts at their current prices. Rashaad Penny is one rookie fantasy owners may want to start fading (6:04), Devin Funchess is primed to regress (24:55), and Will Fuller is being taken far too high (39:51). We close out the show with some intriguing takes on Jimmy Graham (54:23). Can he succeed despite all the red flags against him in Green Bay?

Is our excitement for Saquon Barkley warranted (15:08) and are there reasons to be concerned regarding Jerick McKinnon's talent and situation (22:01)? Plus, will Juju Smith-Schuster transform into a superstar or is a major regression coming (34:56), is Robby Anderson someone worth reaching for (47:47), and what should fantasy owners make of George Kittle and David Njoku (1:01:20)?

Today's show is dedicated to you, the listener, as we spend the whole show analyzing your hot takes. Your intriguing bold predictions forced us to ponder the odds of Aaron Rodgers stealing Peyton Manning's single-season passing touchdown record this year (13:06) and Keenan Allen (19:55) and Joe Mixon (26:02) finishing 2018 as the top fantasy WR and RB, respectively. We also discuss the chances of Adam Shaheen producing more fantasy points than Trey Burton (43:20) and Corey Davis receiving 130+ targets (57:16).

In today's show, we go through an entire half PPR mock draft from start to finish, all while providing analysis on our picks. But first, we evaluate the fantasy impact of the Corey Coleman trade (4:58) and break down a development regarding Sony Michel's injury (6:53). As we complete our draft, some of the questions we tackle are if fantasy owners are better off selecting Chris Hogan over Sammy Watkins (15:51), is John Ross now more valuable than Geronimo Allison (34:40), and what should fantasy owners make of Devin Funchess (44:24)?

We're bringing the Pay Mayo Experience to our latest episode and in today's show, we're taking turns naming who we feel are the riskiest players to draft this year. Before we get into that though, Tags is explaining his reasoning behind why he said in another episode that he'd take John Ross over Kenny Golladay (1:40). We're also giving our thoughts on news about Christian McCaffrey's workload (6:35), Josh Gordon's time away from the team (9:30), and what that might mean for Jarvis Landry. Tags kicks things off naming Deshaun Watson as his first risky pick (21:29). Listen in to find out who else gets named including some friendly disagreement on Sony Michel (40:04) and Alex Collins (1:00:13).

Which risky unheralded players can quietly become viable fantasy producers? That's what we're here to shed some light on for you today. Eric Decker (00:27) could wind up with sneaky upside if he becomes a Patriot. Fantasy owners would also do well not to sleep on Kelvin Benjamin (15:02), Jamaal Williams (23:34), or Blake Bortles (38:46), among many others. The back end of the show features some very interesting nuggets of information about several offenses fantasy owners will depend upon this season. Those facts produce some intriguing questions, like which wide receiver outside of Larry Fitzgerald will achieve fantasy relevance in the desert (46:20), and is Christian McCaffrey's upside heavily capped (47:18)?

With the NFL preseason less than two weeks away, we're back to break down a full fantasy mock draft from start to finish as our experts go head-to-head against each other in the same mock draft room for the very first time! Tags kicks things off by selecting Saquon Barkley with the seventh pick (8:35), and Bobby follows that up by taking Julio Jones 10th overall (10:10). Throughout the draft we attempt to answer some perplexing questions drafters will face while on the clock, like what is the difference between Demaryius Thomas and Amari Cooper (24:45), can Rex Burkhead be a startable fantasy RB each week (48:07), and how much upside does Keelan Cole hold as a late-round pick (53:38)?

Sports Illustrated's Michael Beller joins the show as we tell you which players' ADPs we expect to rise and fall before the season begins. However, we start the show by digging into the great Tom Brady vs. Aaron Rodgers debate (2:27) and analyzing the aftermath of Ricky Seals-Jones' arrest (5:43). Chris Carson's emergence may hurt Rashaad Penny's ADP (16:22) and Jordan Reed's draft price has nowhere to go but up (29:28). Also, will the Saints' acquisition of Shane Vereen (35:02) have bigger implications than one might think, and are the Titans Dez Bryant's next destination (40:06)? We then close out the show by answering your Listener Mailbag questions (50:34).

Some of the topics we touch on are which players should be the first three picks (10:48), is Doug Baldwin worth reaching for (24:54), who should fantasy owners aim for after the top 20 (39:04), are Joe Mixon or Jerick McKinnon worth grabbing at the end of the second round (43:31), and is Kareem Hunt (58:48) a lock to be an RB1?

Pat Fitzmaurice from TheFootballGirl.com joins the show today to discuss some players whose ADPs are either too low or too high. Is Jordan Reed's (17:00) relatively high ADP actually warranted? Are both the public and the experts still too high on Julian Edelman (26:33) despite his already low ranking and draft cost? What should fantasy owners make of Jamaal Williams (42:55)? Can Rex Burkhead (46:17) have a consistent role in the oft-unpredictable Patriots' backfield? Is there a safer receiver in Detroit than Marvin Jones (54:24)? We offer insight into all these questions and tackle many others in today's episode.

We discuss our favorite deep sleepers heading into the season, many of whom usually go undrafted. Ricky Seals-Jones was very good in limited playing time last year (8:40), Sam Bradford may have QB1 potential (17:34), and Mike Williams is far too overlooked in drafts (20:05). Plus, Jordan Wilkins has the skills to win the Colts' starting RB job (36:46), and Geronimo Allison (49:02) starts for an offense with "the greatest quarterback in the history of the world."

Today, we spend most of the show giving our top fantasy football hot takes, but first, we discuss who fantasy owners should expect to step up in Buffalo if LeSean McCoy is unable to play (06:34). Some of the scorching hot takes mentioned are Kareem Hunt finishing outside the top-20 RBs (11:57), Jordan Howard not leading the Bears' backfield in fantasy points (28:30), and Alex Smith producing more fantasy points than Jimmy Garoppolo (36:52). We later follow that up with in-depth analysis on the pros and cons of drafting Greg Olson (43:37) and Alex Collins (50:24).

Towards the end, we are mystified at how Geronimo Allison is still often going undrafted (1:00:41) and rationalize why Sony Michel should be taken much higher (1:11:26).

Summer is officially here and that just means we're getting closer to the fantasy football season. If you haven't run a mock draft recently, we've got your back and you can see how our teams turn out as Bobby and Tags pick from the sixth and seventh slots in a 12-team, Half-PPR league. Saquon Barkley (12:09) and Mike Evans (14:41) are the first two picks for both guys, but things start looking different from there. Find out why we're high on a pair of rookies in Sony Michel (25:39) and Ronald Jones (32:09), why Latavius Murray is one of the best handcuffs (46:06), if Bilal Powell is finally going to be a workhorse (47:27), and will Terrelle Pryor surprise fantasy players (55:56).

With Andrew Luck throwing footballs once again (15:49), how high will his ADP climb (20:16), and how much upside will Eric Ebron have as a result (22:03)? We then spend the rest of the show answering some intriguing Listener Mailbag questions (27:58), like whether fantasy owners should be concerned about the Cardinals' offense (45:42), how early Lamar Miller should now be taken in drafts (55:50), and what our favorite two-quarterback combos are (1:03:09).

Justin Boone from theScore.com joins the gang as we discuss some potential breakout candidates this season. We start the show by pondering some intriguing questions, like where should Andrew Luck (3:14) and the Colts wideouts (7:34) be ranked now that Luck is throwing again, whether contract years actually matter for fantasy production (10:09), and what exactly qualifies as a "breakout" season (19:04)? The guys then switch gears and examine why specific players such as Pat Mahomes (22:49), Aaron Jones (34:14), Justin Jackson (41:49), and Kenny Stills (45:24), among many others, are primed to become valuable fantasy assets in 2018.

Pro Football Focus' Jeff Ratcliffe joins the show as we discuss which players are bound to shoot up draft boards before most drafts are underway. But first, we dissect some Patriots news as we project which wideout would get the most targets in Julian Edelman's absence (7:30), and then decipher whether there's any merit to the Rob Gronkowski rumors (16:19). Everyone agrees that fantasy owners are far too low on Jameis Winston and his receivers (24:01), and while Kerryon Johnson's ADP should climb as well, his upside is far from limitless (36:48). Plus, Geronimo Allison may be the biggest bargain in drafts right now (41:50), but is Josh Gordon really being undervalued, and how many targets can we expect him to receive (57:19)?

Michael Moore from Pro Football Focus and the Dynasty Slant podcast joins the gang as we embark to show you which tight ends experts are either overlooking or gazing upon too much, but first, Bobby makes a bold claim regarding his extreme distaste for coffee (0:40). Moving onto football, the guys wonder if fantasy owners should put any stock into training camp reports (7:14). Soon afterward, we discuss the Colts' tight end battle between Jack Doyle (10:44) and Eric Ebron (11:40) along with expectations for Andrew Luck (14:49). Tags isn't a fan of Evan Engram's current ranking (19:01), and Bobby has concerns about Trey Burton (22:18). The trio later gives very in-depth analysis on Cameron Brate (31:44) and breaks down Jordan Reed's value and risk (43:12). To conclude, Bobby thinks Kyle Rudolph is a safe option (51:36), but Tags questions that thought.

FantasyPros' own expert, Jody Smith, teams up with Bobby and Tags to shine some light on which quarterbacks are ranked either too high or too low based on our expert consensus rankings. Everyone agrees that Deshaun Watson's (7:08) small sample size is undeserving of his generous ranking, and that same sentiment is expressed for Jimmy Garoppolo (16:43). Despite his track record, Tom Brady (21:59) is also someone Bobby and Tags figure will struggle to produce up to his ranking, however, the gang can't fully agree on whether Carson Wentz is overvalued (39:23). In contrast, Jameis Winston is unanimously considered to be heavily undervalued (46:04). Jody is all-in on Dak Prescott (53:43), and towards the end, he quickly rattles off three undervalued QBs who could pay off big for fantasy owners (1:03:14).

Footballguys.com expert, Sigmund Bloom, joins Bobby and Tags in our 200th episode to scour through the wide receiver expert consensus rankings and highlight notable overvalued and undervalued wideouts. Before we dive headfirst into the wide receiver rankings talk, the trio does their best to decide if Jordan Reed (5:00) and Brandon Marshall (9:16) are worth scooping up in drafts. Tags and Sigmund later disagree on whether DeAndre Hopkins is overvalued (17:47), Tags later advises if Julio Jones falling to the second round in some drafts is a mistake (22:40), and everyone agrees that Josh Gordon is ranked too high (28:50). As we shift gears to our undervalued players, the guys vouch for DeVante Parker (43:27) and are surprised at the low rankings for Randall Cobb and Geronimo Allison (50:52). Bobby then reiterates that Julio Jones should be a bonafide first round target (53:41), and Sterling Shepard's ranking just isn't high enough for Tags (58:54).

Today, Bobby and Tags spend this super-sized edition of the FantasyPros Football Podcast analyzing our running back Expert Consensus Rankings (ECR) and shining some light on which rushers are either ranked too high or too low. Bobby shows his love for both Aaron Jones (55:00) and Ty Montgomery (57:18), but not before showing his concern about the rankings of Alex Collins (36:01), Browns rushers Duke Johnson and Carlos Hyde (38:18), and even Alvin Kamara (13:14). Tags instead justifies his decision to take Alvin Kamara over David Johnson (15:21), questions whether he should rank Ronald Barber II ahead of Kenyan Drake (22:40), goes on a pessimistic rant about Jay Ajayi's generous ranking (30:21), and shares his optimism for Derrius Guice (59:07) and Kenneth Dixon (1:05:32). The duo also displayed unwavering confidence in rookies Saquon Barkley (48:35) and Sony Michel (50:17).

With the NFL Draft far away in the rearview mirror and OTAs now underway, Bobby and Tags run through another dynasty mock draft to give you an idea of who will be available at every point in the draft, and what kinds of decisions you'll be forced to make. But first, the guys ponder one of life's great mysteries by sharing how long they are each willing to leave pizza out before eating it (6:12). We then shift gears to our mock draft, and Bobby and Tags discuss who they think should get taken first overall (13:27), and delve into how your first two picks should shape your strategy for the rest of the draft (21:52). Tags also gives his reasoning behind taking Antonio Brown with the fifth overall pick (12:58), and Le'Veon Bell slides to Bobby at seventh overall (14:49). Listen to their picks and their analysis of them, then find out how they fared at the end (47:59).

Welcome to our second rookie rankings show this offseason and in this episode, we've got special guest JJ Zachariason of numberFire joining us to chat about the running backs. There's not much to say about who's number one, but everyone else in the top 10 can be a bit more tricky. We're getting into the details on why JJ has Rashaad Penny as his #2 (8:45) whereas Tags has Sony Michel there (11:41). Ronald Jones (15:43) and Derrius Guice (19:11) round out the top 5, but we're not stopping there as three other players deserve to be mentioned in this tier as well (24:45).

Martellus Bennett - 12:58...), an impact can already be felt as we go pick-by-pick and analyze our options. Now with March Madness happening, we had to talk some college hoops so we're joined by special guest, Keith Goldner of numberFire.com, to talk bracket strategy, dark horses, and more ahead of the tournament (43:58).

It's been a busy day with NFL Free Agency and we're covering the frenzy with our guest, Mike Wright of The Fantasy Footballers.

The Super Bowl was one for the ages and we're already looking forward to the 2017 season. We're excited to have Pat Daugherty of Rotoworld joining us to talk about even more football as we dive into our early consensus rankings available now at FantasyPros.com. We're going tier by tier as Bobby and Pat talk Le'Veon Bell or David Johnson at #1 (2:57), which guys stand out in each tier, and some intriguing names further down the list (18:56).
Bobby and guest, Dan Harris, discuss who could be the surprise player for the Pats on Sunday (7:35), what to expect from their crowded backfield (8:52), and the heavily debated topic of whether or not Tom Brady is now the best QB ever (12:15). And we can't talk about this matchup without going into just how good this Falcons' offense is (17:04). For all of you who are looking forward to the next season already, we've got you covered as we make 2018 predictions (25:13) before taking a look at some of the prop bets for this weekend (28:20).
We're taking our final show of the season down to Southern California as Bobby breaks down the weekend slate with Doug Norrie of Daily Fantasy Sports Rankings. With limited options in a two game slate, find out which players you should pay up for.
We're back this week with our Divisional Round DFS coverage. With four games on the slate again, we're going to name every player that's worth considering as you build your lineups ahead of kickoff. To help, we've got Jared Kwart of FantasyCruncher joining us to go matchup by matchup starting with Seattle heading to Atlanta (2:15) to take on Matt Ryan (3:18), Julio Jones (3:36) and Devonta Freeman (4:39). On the other side of the ball, Russell Wilson (10:37) and Doug Baldwin (11:45) are the offensive leaders, but it's hard to forget about Thomas Rawls (13:10) after last week. The second game that we're breaking down has the Texans visiting the Patriots. Outside of C.J. Fiedorowicz and Ryan Griffin (26:31), Bobby and Jared aren't wasting time on any Houston players, but if you're wondering which Patriots to use, they've got you covered starting with Tom Brady (19:13) and LeGarrette Blount (21:08). The third game features the Steelers at Chiefs (27:15) and you can call it "chalky", but Antonio Brown and Le'Veon Bell are without question the studs to use (29:33). To finish out the show, they're looking at how unstoppable Aaron Rodgers (38:41) is as he heads to Dallas to take on Dak Prescott (40:40) and Ezekiel Elliott (41:24). Don't miss a second of this player packed episode.
We're here with our first ever playoff podcast and Justin MacMahan of Daily Fantasy Insider joins host, Bobby Sylvester to break down the four matchups this weekend. Not all the matchups are pretty, and in some cases, they're downright ugly, but we're covering all the big names starting with the G-Men visiting Green Bay (3:56) as the two talk about Paul Perkins (5:07), Aaron Rodgers (7:46), Eli Manning (8:23), Odell Beckham (9:59), Jordy Nelson (11:28), Ty Montgomery (14:17) as well as a few smaller names in Aaron Ripkowski (5:51), Sterling Shepard (13:15) and Geronimo Allison (13:39). Then it's arguably the worst playoff matchup of the season with the Raiders and Texans facing off (15:05). While there aren't many appealing plays, hear what Bobby and Justin have to say about Latavius Murray (18:26), Lamar Miller (19:22), DeAndre Hopkins (21:00) and the two Raiders receivers (21:13). The Lions will head to Seattle in a great matchup and you'll want to hear about why Doug Baldwin (24:17), Golden Tate (27:56), and Anquan Boldin (28:19) could all be solid plays. To close the show, the Steelers should rack up points against the Dolphins (32:51) and it'd be foolish to not have any Steelers in your lineup, namely Antonio Brown (34:04) and Le'Veon Bell (34:44).
The Week 17 DFS show features Doug Norrie of DSFR.com and host, Bobby Sylvester. The pair starts with quarterbacks (2:46) and are both big believers in Aaron Rodgers and Russell Wilson this week. Then they move on to running backs (14:46) where they discuss the controversial Pittsburgh backfield situation and whether it makes sense to fade David Johnson. When they chat about wide receivers (30:18) Jordy Nelson is an easy piece to agree on and both Doug and Bobby have cheap wide receivers they are excited about. They close out the show by talking about tight ends (41:05), defense (43:34) and stacks for the main slate (45:22)
Joe Dolan of FantasyGuru.com joins host Bobby Sylvester to hand out fantasy awards for season-long leagues position by position. The pair discusses quarterbacks at 5:09, running backs at 10:48, wide receivers at 14:24, tight ends at 20:55 and finally defenses at 23:47 before handing out league-wide awards (25:03) including the best quarterback to target for the season and the most disappointing fantasy player.

The pair starts with quarterbacks (2:10) and are both high on Matt Ryan, Tyrod Taylor and Joe Flacco. When they transition to running backs (9:47), Derek is a big believer in running out both David Johnson and Le'Veon Bell. They also break down Kenneth Farrow and a handful of other intriguing running backs. Derek and Bobby have different opinions about the top wide receivers (18:52), then dive into some cheaper plays like Sammy Watkins and Stefon Diggs that could help listeners this week. When chatting about tight ends (27:44), Bobby gets really excited about LaDarius Green, while Derek mentions several interesting plays.

We're talking daily fantasy for Week 2 and we have Josh Shepardson (@BChad50) aboard to preview the weekend for DFS. We begin by discussing players that could falter despite being over-hyped by the fantasy community (2:47) before moving on to whether you should pay up for top quarterbacks like Cam Newton and Drew Brees (5:53), if Eli Manning or Matthew Stafford is the best middle-tier play at their position (9:40), and which of the low priced signal callers are most intriguing (12:00). We move on to examine running backs, beginning with players we think could finish with the most points at their position (13:06), our favorite value plays at running back (15:24), which running backs are worth a look in games with PPR scoring (17:23), and tailbacks we think can make for a sneaky under-owned play (21:32). We begin our wide receiver discussion by pondering if it's better to pay up for the top receivers this week or spend money elsewhere (25:15), and continue with who we like if you decide to save some money at the position (29:22), lottery ticket plays that could pay dividends (32:38), and reliable middle-tier players worth sliding in to your cash game lineup (36:41). Moving on to tight ends, we discuss our top plays (38:43), and which cheaper options could end up having huge games (40:35). We finish by discussing our top player stacks for Week 2 (42:42) and which defenses we're plugging in to our DFS lineups (46:38).

Bobby and Matt have a quick discussion about whether to start Sammy Watkins and Travis Benjamin (18:13), before moving on to receivers they are high (21:18) and low (26:18) on for Week 2. On to the listener mailbag where we answer questions about whether you should trade Tom Brady for Blake Bortles (28:30), who between Sammy Watkins and Josh Gordon will play more games this season (29:52), if you should be concerned with Coby Fleener's Week 1 usage (31:54), if you should buy low on Todd Gurly (33:59), who to drop between Charles Simms, Jerick McKinnon and Tevin Coleman (37:08), and what defenses with a good Week 3 matchup are worth picking up sooner rather than later (38:41). We move on to our start/sit segment and pick two players each from a group of four quarterbacks (40:50), running backs (42:02) and wide receivers (43:25) that we'd start this week. We finish by making bold predictions about which quarterback (45:36), running back (49:04), wide receiver (51:04), and tight end (53:01) has a chance to finish with the most fantasy points at their position for Week 2.

With the first week of the NFL season upon us, we're covering the DFS slate for Week 1 of with Doug Norrie (@DougNorrie) of Daily Fantasy Sports Rankings. We begin with general strategy, and Doug gives us some common mistakes made by novice daily fantasy players (1:39), if taking players in later games is a viable strategy (3:26), the difference between the scoring systems on FanDuel and DraftKings and how you should approach building a lineup on each site (7:00), the difference between "cash" and "GPP" style games (9:57), the concept of "stacking" when building a lineup (12:42), and if you should feel comfortable leaving money on the table after you've built your roster (15:12). Moving on, Bobby and Doug discuss quarterbacks beginning with Dak Prescott and Carson Wentz, both of whom have been priced very low for Week 1 (18:36), which quarterback will finish with the most points at his position (22:52) and a mid-range play at quarterback that could surprise with strong first week's performance (24:09). The convo moves on to running backs, where Bobby and Doug discuss Spencer Ware and Christine Michael and their low Week 1 prices (29:16), which tailbacks could finish with the most points at their position (34:33), and if mid-tier players like Ryan Matthews and LeGarrette Blount are worth a look (36:01).

We begin with quarterbacks Raymond has ranked lower (2:44) and higher (6:39) than the consensus. Moving on, Raymond and Bobby discuss running backs they have ranked lower (10:35) and higher (14:40) compared to the ECR. Bobby and Raymond discuss Derek Henry's value heading into this season (19:32) before moving on to wide receivers they have lower (21:36) and higher (23:30) than the ECR. We answer some listener mailbag questions that involve Week 1 Star/Sit conundrums like whether you should start Mattthew Stafford or Tyrod Taylor (26:37), who is the best flex option between James White, Arian Foster and Michael Thomas (29:02), if fantasy owners should adjust their rosters based on weather (31:13), waiver wire tight ends worth adding (32:13), how to manage your last bench spot (35:03), and if Bobby's "double streaming defense" strategy is viable this season (38:25).

We're joined by Greg Smith (@gregsauce), founder of TwoQBs.com, to complete a mock draft using our Draft Simulator. We begin by discussing two quarterback leagues and why they can be so much fun before diving into our mock draft (1:53). We set our mock drafts up to pick from the eighth slot in a 12-team league with rosters that include two quarterbacks, two running backs, three wide receivers, one tight end, one RB/WR/TE flex position and four bench slots (4:41). Our first round discussion involves passing on a quarterback to take a player like Julio Jones (5:47) or if Drew Brees at eighth overall is a worthy pick (7:40). The second round features players Lamar Miller (8:27) and LeVeon Bell (9:03). Greg mulls over his third round quarterback choices before he decides to take another running back in Mark Ingram (9:55). We agree on Demaryius Thomas' value in the fourth round (11:05) before moving on to the fifth round where we discuss players like Kirk Cousins (12:02), Thomas Rawls (12:23), Jonathan Stewart (12:47) and Tyrod Taylor (13:13). Bobby talks about why he likes Jordan Reed (14:10) before Greg satiates our love for Donte Moncrief and takes him in the sixth round (15:25). We have a hard time finding value in the seventh round, and we discuss if Jordan Matthews (17:00), Andy Dalton (17:34), Duke Johnson (17:46) and John Brown (18:26) are worth a pick. Eighth round discussion involves Josh Gordon (19:26) and Robert Griffin III (20:46). Greg tells us why he likes Michael Crabtree's value in the ninth round this year (22:21). In the tenth round Bobby considers quarterbacks before settling on Kevin White (23:20) while Greg decides on a running back and selects Chris Ivory (24:06). Greg takes Jay Cutler as his third quarterback and talks about why it's a high floor pick at this point in the draft (25:37) while Bobby selects Devin Funchess in the 11th round (26:53). In the twelfth round Greg takes another quarterback (27:13), and Bobby debates taking Blaine Gabbert or Teddy Bridgewater (28:21).

JJ Zachariason (@LateRoundQB) joins the pod to talk fantasy football sleepers heading into drafts. We begin with a player JJ thinks could possibly be a late round steal like David Johnson was in 2015 (1:41). We continue by looking at rookie wide receivers who have a chance to break out (4:19) and backup running backs who could finish the season as an RB1 if there is an injury ahead of them on the depth chart (6:24). JJ gives us sleepers at each position, starting with quarterbacks Matthew Stafford (10:14) and Jameis Winston (11:29). Bobby and JJ discuss Tyrod Taylor (12:36) and Robert Griffin III (14:19) before moving onto sleeper running backs outside the top 40 ADP. Players include Bilal Powell (15:55), James White (17:06), free agent Karlos Williams (18:20) and Zach Zenner (19:11).

We talk about Charles Clay being a possible deep sleeper at the tight end position (25:28) and then move over to players going between 50 and 100 in ADP that could end up top-5 at their respective positions (26:37). Players include podcast favorite Donte Moncrief (26:57) and Melvin Gordon (28:31). We finish by looking at players we like at the back of the first round (30:33), and backup quarterbacks you should look at drafting if you take Tom Brady (36:21).
