Matt Waldman's RSP Cast

Adam Harstad and Matt Waldman take a break from their regular conversations about football to discuss writing, crafting content, and crafting an audience in the fantasy industry. There are a lot of excellent writers and analysts in the fantasy industry. There are few that I hold in as high a regard as Adam (and not surprising he earned the FSWA’s Fantasy Writer of the Year). He’s a forthright human being with a tremendous intellect whose approach to analysis in this space differs from most. He’s also an excellent fantasy GM in re-draft and dynasty formats. Adam spends a lot of time examining results and dealing with broad themes of decision-making that help us become better fantasy players and fantasy analysts. https://youtu.be/RU1t7LllxoE Topics Brock Bowers and historical comparisons: statistical, film, and aesthetics. Player development, team fit, and the hidden impact of dysfunctional environments. Adam's many league, one team approach with dynasty leagues. Anthony Richardson and the soap opera-style film analysis that creates alarmist development narratives. And of course, if you want to know about the rookies from this draft class, you will find the most in-depth analysis of offensive skill players available (QB, RB, WR, and TE), with the 2024 Rookie Scouting Portfolio for $21.95. Matt’s new RSP Dynasty Rankings and Two-Year Projections Package is available for $24.95 If you’re a fantasy GM interested in purchasing past publications for $9.95 each, the 2012-2023 RSPs also have a Post-Draft Add-on that’s included at no additional charge.

Matt Waldman's RSP Scout Talk provides a progress report on the 2023 and 2024 rookie quarterback classes. How I evaluate quarterbacks once they begin their NFL careers was a topic I broached this time last year. With the past two years of quarterbacks as hot points of media discussion, I'm using the article/thread as a framework for analyzing what's most important for a young quarterback to show on the field. Production and wins are the bottom line. While true, the myopic focus on the bottom line ahead of embracing a legitimate growth process is one of the greatest problems with young quarterback management in the NFL. Growth is only given lip service. Organizations have insufficient development processes, they are impatient with results, and they contribute to public pressure. Sink or swim. They don't bench intermittently. A benching in today's league is too often considered a death knell for that player's future as a long-term starter. Drew Brees would have never developed if his early career unfolded in today's environment. With that said, I share my thoughts on Bryce Young, Will Levis, Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels, Bo Nix, and even Skylar Thompson as I take you through the factors I use with evaluating NFL QBs early in their careers. I will note that Tyson Bagent and Aidan O'Connell are inadvertently getting that intermittent playing/bench time as reserves. Bagent's situation may prove the most favorable. If you play fantasy football, you may want to hang onto Bagent in leagues with deep rosters of 35-50 spots. And of course, if you want to know about the rookies from this draft class, you will find the most in-depth analysis of offensive skill players available (QB, RB, WR, and TE), with the 2023 Rookie Scouting Portfolio for $21.95.

Dwain McFarland joins Matt Waldman's RSP Cast for a 90-minute deep dive into 2024 fantasy prospects for your drafts. https://youtu.be/lrXuebdrsZI Dwain McFarland returns to the RSP Cast to discuss the 2024 fantasy football landscape with Matt Waldman: Who fits a lot of Dwain and Matt's profiles for a career year, but they're skeptical they'll get there? Who doesn't fit a lot of Dwain and Matt's profiles, but they're optimistic it could happen. What's missing with Garrett Wilson's NFL experience that could go in either direction with Aaron Rodgers at the helm? Why Devon Achane's volume isn't as important to his fantasy value as other running backs? Is Calvin Ridley a good fantasy value? What do we expect from Will Levis this year and why is Zac Taylor a Sean McVay flunky? Does Daniel Jones scare us off Malik Nabers as a rookie starter? Who is the biggest value receiver in fantasy drafts this year? The pros and cons of Russell Wilson in Pittsburgh. Untangling the narratives and the truths of Arthur Smith's offense.

JJ Zachariason of Late-Round Fantasy Football stops by Matt Waldman's RSP Cast to discuss his 2024 Late-Round Draft Guide and where they converge and diverge on this year's fantasy prospects. https://youtu.be/odl7bZPYols JJ Zachariason is someone most of you know. If you don't, you should get to know his work at Late-Round Fantasy Football. Like the RSP, JJ runs his own shop and he's dedicated to delivering quality content. His guides are informative and enjoyable reads. You'll become a better fantasy GM because of his knowledge of game theory and data analysis fused with the range of proven draft-day strategies in the space. JJ and I had a great time talking about rookie prospects this spring on his Late-Round Perspectives Podcast. This week, we delve into JJ's wheelhouse of fantasy strategies and some of the players who we think may help or hurt your team-building this season. Why we value "the why" with our work? JJ's approach to outliers? The game theory behind JJ touting Brock Purdy or Tua Tagovailoa at their price over C.J. Stroud. JJ reviews the RB Dead Zone and the type of backs to consider in that fantasy minefield. JJ's thoughts on Kyren Williams in 2024. JJ's increasing value for De'Von Achane. Josh Jacobs-Marshawn Lloyd and the impact of Green Bay's coaching dynamic. Thoughts on Dalton Kincaid, Luke Musgrave, DeAndre Hopkins, Tyjae Spears, Jayden Daniels, Jonathon Brooks, and Malik Nabers. Once again, we thoroughly enjoyed the conversation. Hopefully, you will as well.
