How do our Footballguys Expert Staff League teams stack up — and what strategies did we use to build them? Sep 03, 2026

Show notes

🔥 Description

Bloom and Cecil break down their Footballguys Expert Staff League draft — the FESL OG, the toughest room in fantasy football. With longtime Footballguys analysts loading the board with sharp picks, every round becomes a test of discipline, strategy, and adaptation.

We go through how our teams stack up, what we loved, what we'd change, and how each of us approached roster construction in a league where everyone knows your tendencies. Did we lean into value pockets. Did we push positional edges. Did we zag when the room zigged.

This is the kind of draft that reveals who you are as a fantasy manager — and how you attack the season ahead.

How Will Josh Jacobs Backfield Shakeup Reshape the Packers' Offense — and Your Fantasy Draft Board Aug 30, 2026

Show notes

In This Episode:

The Packers just delivered one of the wildest preseason backfield shakeups we've seen in years, and Bloom & Cecil break down what it really means for fantasy managers heading into draft week.

Josh Jacobs has been placed on the Commissioner's Exempt List after new charges surfaced — and there's no clear timeline for his return. With a court date in mid‑November, Jacobs becomes a stash‑and‑pray option at best, and it's possible he's played his last down for Green Bay.

That opens the door wide for MarShawn Lloyd, who is now expected to be the RB1 to open the season. Lloyd's talent has never been in question — it's the durability. But after offseason work at the Meyer Institute correcting movement issues tied to his college ACL tear, he could be a massive fantasy hit if he stays healthy.

Green Bay also traded for Kaleb Johnson, adding depth behind Lloyd and Chris Brooks. Johnson profiles as the third‑string back, but his arrival signals how aggressively the Packers are trying to stabilize the position.

This is the kind of late‑August news that reshapes tiers, ADP, and draft strategy — and we're here to help you navigate it.

How Do These Preseason Injuries Reshape Fantasy Draft Strategy for Chase, Henderson, Walker and the Stars Around Them Aug 27, 2026

Show notes

🔥 Description

Preseason is hitting some of fantasy football's biggest names, and Bloom & Cecil break down what these injuries really mean for your draft board as August heats up.

Ja'Marr Chase appears to have avoided anything major, but even a minor scare can shift late‑August ADP. Does this push drafters toward Tee Higgins or simply reinforce Chase's elite ceiling once he's fully cleared.

In Cincinnati, TreVeyon Henderson is banged up — and if he misses time, what does that mean for Rhamondre Stevenson. Bloom & Cecil dig into workload redistribution, goal‑line usage, and whether Stevenson becomes a sneaky volume riser.

And in Kansas City, Kenneth Walker being slowed down raises a massive question: how much can the Chiefs lean on Patrick Mahomes, especially early in the season as he returns from the knee injury that shortened his 2025 campaign. Does this shift the offensive identity, or does Andy Reid simply ask Mahomes to carry more weight sooner than expected.

These are the injuries that move boards, reshape tiers, and create opportunity — if you know where to look.

Latest injury news on Chase, Henderson, and Walker
How Henderson's status impacts Rhamondre Stevenson's workload
What Walker's setback means for Mahomes and KC's early‑season plan
Whether Chase's scare shifts late‑August fantasy drafts

Drop your fantasy take — which injury storyline is changing YOUR draft strategy, and who becomes the biggest riser if these situations linger.

Which Preseason Shakeups Are Reshaping Backfields, Depth Charts & Your Fantasy Draft Board? Aug 25, 2026

Show notes

Preseason is delivering real fantasy‑relevant movement, and Bloom & Cecil break down the biggest storylines you need to stay ahead of your league.

Rookie RB Jonah Coleman is standing out for the Broncos — physical, explosive, and confident. But can he actually work his way into a backfield that already features JK Dobbins and RJ Harvey. We dig into usage, roles, and whether Coleman can carve out meaningful touches or if fantasy GMs should temper expectations.

In Houston, Jayden Higgins goes down with an ACL injury, leaving a major void in CJ Stroud's passing game. So who steps up. Bloom & Cecil break down the ripple effects — target redistribution, depth chart shakeups, and which Texans pass‑catchers suddenly become fantasy sleepers.

And in New York, Najee Harris signs with the Giants. How much of a threat is he for playing time. Is this a committee, a depth move, or a legitimate challenge to the current starter. We sort out the fantasy impact and how it should adjust your draft strategy.
