Week 1 Fantasy Football Takeaways: Fact or Fiction + Waiver Wire & Trade Advice | Out of Bounds (Ep. 1697)

What better way to wrap up the month of February than with a fantasy football mock draft? That's exactly what we're doing while talking through our thought process during this stage of the year. Bobby is back to join Tags for this mock and despite both starting out with the first pick (17:04), they end up with very different results starting in the 3rd round as Tags takes Jarvis Landry (23:31) while Bobby selects Jordan Howard (25:59). Listen in for all their picks and analysis as well as what kind of fantasy impact the future rookie class will have. Players covered include Saquon Barkley (6:04), Derrius Guice (11:08), Ronald Jones (11:42), Rashad Penny (12:52), and Calvin Ridley (14:18).See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
