With free agency and the draft behind us, what 32 teams look like today will likely be what they look like Week 1 and beyond for the 2024 season. Matt Harmon and Scott Pianowski reveal the post-draft fantasy power rankings. The duo break down the rankings in six tiers: Elite offensive ecosystems, teams on the cusp of being complete mixed bag ecosystems, offensive ecosystems with something to prove, offenses that could go either way, and offenses that are best to stay away from in fantasy.The two start out by identifying the top ten offenses in the league and what makes each an ecosystem worth investing in. Harmon and Pianowski dive into what the Lions and Texans have for an encore in 2024 and what they're true ceiling is after breakout seasons in 2023.The duo then identifies the next tier of offenses: Ones we like but have major questions about them. Harmon can't contain his enthusiasm for the Colts offense but knows we still need to see Anthony Richardson for a full healthy season. Harmon and Pianowski also try to make sense of the Cowboys RB room and Packers WR room.The two end the show listing the offenses that have something to prove but could be diamonds in the rough this season in terms of fantasy value.

Ep 802NFL Draft Rounds 2-7 recap: Rookie fantasy fits we love and question

The NFL Draft is officially in the books. We no longer need to speculate on where guys will go. Now it's time to see how they fit. Matt Harmon and Charles McDonald look at the rookie fantasy fits they love, the ones they question and the group of picks that are great real life picks but rather 'meh' for fantasy purposes.To start the show the duo highlight fantasy fits that they love. Harmon and McDonald agree that WR Ladd McConkey going to the Chargers is a match made in heaven with Justin Herbert. Harmon speculates if McConkey can have a more productive rookie season that Malik Nabers and Rome Odunze with his opportunity for targets. Harmon is also bullish on RB Trey Benson going to Arizona and thinks he could be a potential late season 'league winner' in 2024. McDonald and Harmon disagree on the Dolphins selection of RB Jaylen Wright.After the break, the two identify picks that they didn't love but questioned how they'd fit for fantasy purposes. Harmon is still very skeptical of how WR Keon Coleman will work in Buffalo. McDonald is willing trust the talent of Josh Allen to make it work. The two also wonder how WR Malachi Corley will be used in New York and if Nathanial Hackett will be able to maximize him in the slot.The two end the show with four picks that they thought were great in real life but very 'meh' for fantasy purposes. No pick caused more anguish in the fantasy community than the L.A. Rams taking RB Blake Corum. The two were also confused by the Green Bay Packers taking RB Marshawn Lloyd after signing Josh Jacobs this offseason.2:20 - Fantasy Fits we love40:15 - Fantasy Fits we are questioning52:00 - Good real life picks, 'meh' Fantasy Fits Subscribe to the Yahoo Fantasy Forecast on your favorite podcast app:🎧 Apple Podcasts🎧 Spotify🖥️ YouTube📢 Check out the Yahoo Sports podcast network or yahoosports.tvAnd check out Matt Harmon and Yahoo Fantasy on our socials:📷 @YahooFantasy: https://www.instagram.com/YahooFantasy⌚ @YahooFantasy: https://www.tiktok.com/@yahoofantasy🐦 @YahooFantasy: https://x.com/YahooFantasy🟦 @YahooFantasy: https://www.facebook.com/YahooFantasy/

We have officially entered 'silly season' of NFL Draft week where rumors are rampant and everything must be taken with a grain of salt. Fear not, Matt Harmon and Fantasy Pro's Thor Nystrom are here to cut through the smoke.

The duo looks at how the top QBs could fit in Kevin O'Connell's offense and Justin Jefferson.The two then try to make sense of the Denver Broncos after they acquired Zach Wilson from the New York Jets in a trade. Given that Denver might have the worst QB room in the league, the duo try to figure out which rookie QB is the most realistic option and best fit for Sean Payton's scheme. The two discuss Bo Nix's potential in Denver and if they can trade down and still acquire the Oregon QB later in the draft.Harmon and Nystrom have a similar conversation about the Las Vegas Raiders QB room and if they could be a dark horse team to trade up for QB.

Ep 792Draft Deep Dive: WRs part 1 + Ripple effects of Stefon Diggs trade to Texans

Matt Harmon and Charles McDonald their 'Draft Deep Dive' series by taking a look at arguably the most loaded position in this year's draft: The wide receivers. Given how many notable prospects are in this class we decided to break the position series into two parts. Part one looks at most of the prospects that will likely go in the first two days of the draft.But before diving into this year's WR class the two react to one of the biggest WR moves of the offseason, as the Buffalo Bills traded Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans in exchange for a 2024 2nd round pick. Harmon and McDonald look at the fantasy ripple effect for both teams as well as how this could impact the Bills decisions in this year's draft. Both believe the Bills could get aggressive early in the draft to try and land one of the top WR prospects.Speaking of those WR prospects, Harmon reveals the 8 guys he's studied the most heading into the draft. The two start by looking at the 'top 3' tier and if anything separates Marvin Harrison, Malik Nabers and Rome Odunze. Harmon and McDonald also attempt to identify which would be the best fits for each of the WRs.To end the show, Harmon and McDonald look at 5 other WR prospects that could go in the first round or be top end picks in the second round. Harmon also identifies his favorite day two sleeper at the WR . 3:45 - Ripple effect for both the Texans and Bills after Stefon Diggs trade19:00 - Draft Deep Dive: Marvin Harrison Jr.26:00 - Draft Deep Dive: Malik Nabers32:00 - Draft Deep Dive: Rome Odunze42:30 - Draft Deep Dive: Brian Thomas Jr. 49:15 - Draft Deep Dive: Ladd McConkey 55:00 - Draft Deep Dive: Keon Coleman 59:45 - Draft Deep Dive: Roman Wilson 1:03:10 - Draft Deep Dive: Rickey Pearsall Subscribe to the Yahoo Fantasy Forecast on your favorite podcast app:🎧 Apple Podcasts🎧 Spotify🖥️ YouTube📢 Check out the Yahoo Sports podcast network or yahoosports.tvAnd check out Matt Harmon and Yahoo Fantasy on our socials:📷 @YahooFantasy: https://www.instagram.com/YahooFantasy⌚ @YahooFantasy: https://www.tiktok.com/@yahoofantasy🐦 @YahooFantasy: https://x.com/YahooFantasy🟦 @YahooFantasy: https://www.facebook.com/YahooFantasy/

Ep 791Teams that will shape the Draft: Could Cards, Chargers, Falcons trade picks with QB needy teams?

We continue our 'Teams that will shape the Draft' series by looking at three teams - Cardinals, Chargers, Falcons- in the top 10 who have a settled QB situation, but could play a major role in potentially trading with other teams who could be looking for a rookie QB early. The Athletic's Robert Mays joins Matt Harmon to breakdown how these teams can best leverage their unique situations.Harmon and Mays first look at the Arizona Cardinals who hold the No. 4 pick in the draft as well as ten other picks in the draft. The duo debate if it makes sense for the Cardinals to stay at four and take the best WR prospect available or if they could still grab one if they trade down. The two discuss if the Cardinals are one good draft away from being a contender in the NFC.The two then discuss the Los Angeles Chargers who hold the No. 5 pick and eight other picks. Harmon and Mays discuss if we should buy into Jim Harbaugh's comments about the importance of the offensive line. The two then debate if the Chargers should embrace a full rebuild given the state of their roster. Mays also wonders what the trade market and value would be for the No. 5 pick if the top four picks are QB. To end the show the two look at the Atlanta Falcons and what they need to do with the No. 8 pick now that they have Kirk Cousins as their QB in 2024. The two agree the path to contention in the NFC for the Falcons is real. Harmon is over the moon about Drake London's potential in 2024. Mays ponders if a team built the way the Falcons are can actually win a Super Bowl. 2:50 - Teams that shape the Draft: Teams in top 10 who don't need a QB4:00 - Arizona Cardinals: Stay at No. 4 and take a WR or trade back?22:55 - L.A.

The two also debate what the Bears should do with the No. 9 pick and why a prospect like Brock Bowers could be a fun idea with that pick.The two then discuss the state of the Washington Commanders and why it could be a mistake to pass on Drake Maye with the No. 2 pick.
