5/12/22: 2022 Wide Receiver & Quarterback Ranks Revealed!
We continue our first look at fantasy football rankings for 2022, turning our attention to the passing game. The wide receivers are as deep as ever, with NFL aerial attacks as dominant as ever in pro football, but there aren't very many WRs who stand apart! We'll dive into the flattest position in fantasy, and then we'll talk about the men who throw them the ball. Is the fetish for running quarterbacks finally over in fantasy? (Hint: no.) We'll discuss how we think we'll draft the QBs come August, too! Guest: Cousin Josh (@DetectiveFisch).
5/5/22: 2022 Running Back & Tight End Ranks Revealed!
The NFL depth charts are pretty set! The rookies have landing spots! We now have a decent idea how the fantasy landscape will look come July! So it's time to put a stake in the ground and make some rankings. On today's podcast we'll tackle the scarcest position: running back. Beyond the first several names, there simply aren't a lot of sure things, and we'll talk about why. We'll also talk some about tight end ranks and why our first inclination is to once again *not* pay to get one of the highly rated ones. Fantasy draft strategy formulations begin now! Guest: Cousin Josh (@DetectiveFisch).
4/27/22: Dynasty & NFL Draft Sleepers For 2022
The NFL Draft is finally here! We're about to be completely blinded by skill-position player landing spots! But let's try and keep a cool head, and remember the evaluations of the smart draft analysts who've joined us over the past month...and we'll continue those evaluations with a look at some players who might come off NFL Draft boards in the late rounds, and might come cheaper in fantasy rookie drafts. We've got quarterbacks, running backs and wideouts who could represent incredible value! Guest: Matt Waldman of FootballGuys.com and the Rookie Scouting Portfolio (@MattWaldman).
4/21/22: Talking Rookie QBs & TEs And Finding RB & WR Sleepers
The NFL Draft Prospect review continues, as we take on the quarterbacks and tight ends, and then dig deeper and find some fantasy sleepers at running back and wide receiver who might last later in next week's draft. Would the Lions be crazy to take Malik Willis with the second overall pick? Are any other QBs first-round worthy? Should any TEs or RBs go in the first? Can we locate some dynasty-league sleepers to target? Let's take a look! Guest: Paul Perdichizzi of Saturday2Sunday (@paulie23ny).
4/14/22: Previewing Rookie RBs For 2022
Fantasy football's scarcest position is running back, so whether we're thinking about redraft leagues or our dynasty rookie drafts, it's always exciting to find the next RB who might take the NFL by storm. Today we'll discuss the top names at the position heading into the NFL Draft. Is Breece Hall the best guy? Is Kenneth Walker better? And where do the likes of Brian Robinson, James Cook, Zamir White, Isaiah Spiller and many more fall in? There's very little consensus about this important position, so let's get smarter! Guest: Brett Kollmann of the Film Room (@BrettKollmann).
4/7/22: NFL Draft WRs & Watson And Tyreek New Homes
The NFL Draft is coming! Let's start sorting through the Class of 2022 by digging into a diverse wide receiver class and discuss our favorites before they find pro teams. Should Garrett Wilson be the consensus top guy at the position? Should college teammate Chris Olave warrant more consideration? How about Jameson Williams who dominated at Alabama before tearing his ACL? We'll get you locked in on this year's wideouts, plus we'll talk about moves made by Deshaun Watson, Tyreek Hill, JuJu Smith-Schuster, Matt Ryan and many more! Guest: Matt Waldman of FootballGuys and the Rookie Scouting Portfolio (@MattWaldman).
3/18/22: 2022 Free Agency Signings Review
A whole lot of NFL players have changed teams, and therefore changed their fantasy outlooks and the outlooks of their former and future teammates. We'll talk about the transactions so far, including Davante Adams to the Raiders, Allen Robinson to the Rams, Amari Cooper to the Browns, James Conner re-signing with Arizona, plus talk about the implications of Deshaun Watson's potential landing places and what that might mean for the likes of Baker Mayfield, plus much much more.

3/10/22: 2022 NFL Free Agency Preview & Russell Wilson's Big Move
Free agency begins next week and we've got a preview of the most important skill-weapons who might change teams: quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers and tight ends whose new homes could make a huge NFL splash. We'll evaluate how excited we are for those guys to land in new cities, plus discuss Russell Wilson to the Broncos, Carson Wentz to the Commanders, and franchise tagged guys like Davante Adams and Chris Godwin.

It's Rams vs. Bengals for all the marbles, and we're gonna talk about how we think it'll go! On today's show we break down the weaknesses of the two Super Bowl rosters and discuss the crucial matchups. We also examine the game from a handicapping angle and endorse the best bets among the myriad available props and parlays. And since all NFL head coaching vacancies have been filled, we'll rank our favorites (and not) heading into the 2022 offseason. Guest: Chris Raybon of the Action Network (@ChrisRaybon).

1/27/22: Five Level-Jumpers For 2022 & Gabriel Davis Film
Let's discuss some young players we think will take a leap in 2022! We've got some running backs and wide receivers whose film we like, whose abilities we believe in, and whose situations we don't know that much about yet for '22, but we trust that they've got a chance to vastly outproduce anything they've done yet in the NFL. We'll also do a deep dive into the film of Bills wideout Gabriel Davis, and talk about Sean Payton leaving the Saints. Guest: Matt Harmon of Yahoo! Fantasy (@MattHarmon_BYB).

Then we'll scan the NFL for possible salary-cap casualties at skill positions, and opine on what such transactions would mean for the players themselves and the teams they'd leave behind.
