Show Notes

Beller, Jake and Funston turn their attention to the backfield on this episode of The Athletic Fantasy Football Podcast. The guys take a look at new-look backfield groupings to uncover where the value lies in each situation. Should you be targeting Josh Jacobs or Kenyan Drake in Vegas? What about Melvin Gordon or Javonte Williams in Denver. And is there any value to be found in Houston, where David Johnson and Phillip Lindsay lead a backfield that could have four players getting touches? The guys answer those questions, and more.

The trio also discusses players they say are riskier than is being assumed, and their favorite fantasy rule tweaks. Plus, they've got another round of Guess That Player.
