Fantasypros - Fantasy Football Podcast

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?

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?

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).

Week 4 has perhaps been the most explosive week of offense in this young season so far. We break down all of Sunday's exciting action and what many of this week's huge fantasy performances could mean moving forward. Is Andrew Luck (2:52) finally back to his old self, can Kenyan Drake (9:19) be trusted, and should fantasy owners be concerned about Dalvin Cook (19:00)? 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? We're wrapping up the show by naming our locks of the week (1:05:51).

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)?

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)?
