7/21/26: Previewing NFC West & A Super-Deep Sleeper From The Rams
The Rams are simply *destined* to be an offensive wagon in 2026. And the Cardinals have *no hope* of being good. Well, but maybe that's not true! We always convince ourselves we know exactly what will happen in the NFL before the season starts, and are always shocked by what we get wrong! So let's fall back on talent, and try not to get swayed *too* much by the August noise. That said, let's preview training camps for the teams of the NFC West -- because there certainly *are* stories that will matter and influence our fantasy football draft strategies!

Will TreVeyon Henderson or Romeo Doubs do enough to spark ranks acceleration? Can D.J. Moore prove anything over the next month? We'll talk about 'em all, and more! Guest: Patrick Daugherty from Rotoworld (@rotopat.bsky.social).

We'll talk about those players and many more as we preview training camps of the NFC East on today's show, plus take a spin through Jayden Daniels's star-crossed 2025 season and his Almanac profile, too!
