SummaryOn this episode of The Most Accurate Podcast, Alex Gelhar joins Greg for a grab bag of fantasy football topics.

Ep 3632020 NFL Draft Reactions with John Daigle

SummaryOn this episode of The Most Accurate Podcast, John Daigle joins Greg to recap the 2020 NFL Draft from a fantasy football perspective. The show begins with bigger-picture takeaways like the proliferation of a "best player available" mentality and the diminishing number of high-volume fantasy options (and not just at running back). From there, your hosts dive into positional breakdowns. Running backs come first (12:06), starting with John and Greg's picks for biggest winners among incumbent ball-carriers. Then the top rookie rushers get evaluated, both on their own and in terms of impacts on their new veteran teammates. Later, after reviewing the most interesting rushers from Day 2 and 3, the conversation turns to wide receivers (37:55). Again, winners and losers among veterans kicks off the positional discussion before your hosts dig into the rookie class. They discuss how much Henry Ruggs might be hurt by the quarterback play of Derek Carr, which other first-round rookies are the best bets to produce in year-one, plus the most intriguing pass-catching prospects from outside the first round. Quarterbacks are next (1:04:22), with takes on multiple winners and one obvious loser among veterans at the position. Your hosts also touch on the outlooks for Jameis Winston and Cam Newton in new homes, then they discuss how to rank the incoming rookies, whether or not fantasy gamers should be worried about Carson Wentz, and the curious case of PJ "Don't Call Me Phillip" Walker playing behind Teddy Bridgewater in Carolina. The episode winds down with a brief section on tight ends (1:20:38), tabbing winners and losers among non-rookies, then highlighting a couple of the position's more intriguing inbound prospects.LinksRotoworld.com2020 NFL Draft Fantasy Recap (Round 1) by John Paulsen2020 NFL Draft Fantasy Recap (Rounds 2-3) by John Paulsen2020 NFL Draft Fantasy Recap (Rounds 4-7) by Brandon NilesWhy Jalen Hurts was a Great Pick by Philadelphia by Kevin ColeSubscribe to 4for4TMAP B-Sides Playlist on SpotifyGuest: John Daigle - @notJDaigleHost: Greg Smith - @gregsauceFollow UsTwitter: @4for4footballFacebook: www.facebook.com/4for4footballYouTube: www.youtube.com/4for4footballEmail: [email protected] Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
