Ep 295DFS Lineup Advice: Week 12 (Ep. 295)

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).

Ep 294Start/Sit: Week 12 (Ep. 294)

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?

Ep 293Waiver Wire Pickups: Week 12 w/ Jake Ciely (Ep. 293)

Jake Ciely from The Athletic is in with us to discuss this week's top waiver wire options at each position. Who is the best widely available RB between Gus Edwards and Josh Adams (2:13), is D.J. 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?

Ep 292Week 11 Rapid Reaction + Lamar Jackson's Future Outlook (Ep. 292)

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).

Our crew shines light on their favorite DFS plays in today's show. We debate whether Dak Prescott (4:01) is a good cash game play, explain why David Johnson (19:28) should provide solid value, and share our thoughts on Julio Jones' (24:17 & 26:02) cash game viability. 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?

Today we are joined by Jeff Ratcliffe from Pro Football Focus as we dish out our insight on which borderline players should get the nod or ride the pine. 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)? Also, is Corey Davis (34:53 and 37:03) beginning to cement himself as a dominant NFL WR and where might Le'Veon Bell (59:52) end up next year?

Ep 289Waiver Wire Pickups: Week 11 + Rashaad Penny's Breakout (Ep. 289)

Michael Beller from Sports Illustrated joins our crew in today's show and together we break down this week's top waiver options. How relevant is Josh Reynolds in the wake of Cooper Kupp's (1:49) season-ending injury, has Rashaad Penny (7:28) fully taken the reigns in Seattle's backfield after his big game, and what is Keke Coutee's (28:27) rest of season outlook like coming off the Texans' Week 10 bye? 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?

Ep 288Week 10 Rapid Reaction + Eric Ebron Explodes (Ep. 288)

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.

Ep 287DFS Lineup Advice: Week 10 w/ Davis Mattek (Ep. 287)

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?

Ep 286Start/Sit: Week 10 + Dez Bryant Signing Impact (Ep. 286)

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?

Ep 285Waiver Wire Pickups: Week 10 + Duke Johnson Re-Emerges (Ep. 285)

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).

Ep 284Week 9 Rapid Reaction + Julio Finally Scores (Ep. 284)

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?

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?

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.

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.

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?

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.

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).

Ep 276Waiver Wire Pickups: Week 8 + Amari Cooper Trade Impact (Ep. 276)

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).

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)?

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).

Tarik Cohen (23:39) may have strong RB2 upside, but we don't share the same optimism for Corey Davis (35:03).

Ep 272Waiver Wire Pickups: Week 7 (Ep. 272)

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)?

Ep 271Week 6 Rapid Reaction + Doug Baldwin Sighting (Ep. 271)

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?

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)?

Ep 264Waiver Wire Pickups: Week 5 + Nyheim Hines' Expectations (Ep. 264)

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).

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?

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.

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.

Ep 259Week 3 Rapid Reaction + Jimmy Garoppolo's Injury (Ep. 259)

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)?

Ep 258DFS Lineup Advice: Week 3 (Ep. 258)

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).

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?

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)?

Ep 251Week 1 Rapid Reaction + James Conner's Breakout (Ep. 251)

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?

Ep 247Waiver Wire Stashes: Week 1 (Ep. 247)

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?
