What Should We Do With JK Dobbins? | The Biggest Fantasy Football Questions for Week 17 (Ep. 1505)

In today's show, we go through an entire half PPR mock draft from start to finish, all while providing analysis on our picks. But first, we evaluate the fantasy impact of the Corey Coleman trade (4:58) and break down a development regarding Sony Michel's injury (6:53). As we complete our draft, some of the questions we tackle are if fantasy owners are better off selecting Chris Hogan over Sammy Watkins (15:51), is John Ross now more valuable than Geronimo Allison (34:40), and what should fantasy owners make of Devin Funchess (44:24)?

We're bringing the Pay Mayo Experience to our latest episode and in today's show, we're taking turns naming who we feel are the riskiest players to draft this year. Before we get into that though, Tags is explaining his reasoning behind why he said in another episode that he'd take John Ross over Kenny Golladay (1:40). We're also giving our thoughts on news about Christian McCaffrey's workload (6:35), Josh Gordon's time away from the team (9:30), and what that might mean for Jarvis Landry. Tags kicks things off naming Deshaun Watson as his first risky pick (21:29). Listen in to find out who else gets named including some friendly disagreement on Sony Michel (40:04) and Alex Collins (1:00:13).

Which risky unheralded players can quietly become viable fantasy producers? That's what we're here to shed some light on for you today. Eric Decker (00:27) could wind up with sneaky upside if he becomes a Patriot. Fantasy owners would also do well not to sleep on Kelvin Benjamin (15:02), Jamaal Williams (23:34), or Blake Bortles (38:46), among many others. The back end of the show features some very interesting nuggets of information about several offenses fantasy owners will depend upon this season. Those facts produce some intriguing questions, like which wide receiver outside of Larry Fitzgerald will achieve fantasy relevance in the desert (46:20), and is Christian McCaffrey's upside heavily capped (47:18)?
