2024 NFL Draft: Instant First Round Reactions (Ep. 1254)

Today we are joined by Doug Norrie from DFSR.com to break down our top DFS cash game and GPP plays for this week. Jared Goff's (10:54) matchup against Detroit might be too tasty to pass up, but would it make sense to save money and spend low at RB on Lamar Miller (22:50) and should DFS players be trying to pay up for Tyreek Hill (31:42)? Jarvis Landry (44:08) comes with some risk, but is his talent and upside worth taking a chance on in cash games? Is Cameron Brate's (48:57) upside capped or was O.J. Howard's presence holding him back, and is Baker Mayfield's (1:03:42) floor and efficiency worth banking on in GPPs against a tough Texans defense?

Jason Moore from The Fantasy Footballers is with our crew today as we all share our analysis on which borderline players should be stuck in lineups or sat on the bench. With Marlon Mack (7:20) still in concussion protocol, will Jordan Wilkins or Nyheim Hines be the main beneficiary if Mack is out, are Jordan Howard (21:37) and Doug Martin (23:48) both startable options, and should fantasy owners fear Larry Fitzgerald's (35:49) matchup? Is it time for everyone to acknowledge Adam Humphries' (40:37) consistency and how high is Lamar Jackson's (53:46) ceiling?

Pat Fitzmaurice from TheFootballGirl.com joins today's show and together we give our thoughts on this week's top waiver wire options for each position. How big will Justin Jackson's (4:20) role be without Melvin Gordon, who is the preferred pickup between Josh Adams and Gus Edwards (18:09), and what concerns should fantasy owners have regarding Curtis Samuel (28:38)? In addition, which defenses can do the most damage in the fantasy playoffs (41:08) and has Baker Mayfield (50:21) already established himself as a top-10 QB?

We're here to put each game under the microscope and share our biggest fantasy takeaways from Week 12's matchups. Nick Chubb (3:02) and the Cleveland Browns appear to have a bright future ahead, Amari Cooper (16:27) was definitively the standout player on Thanksgiving, and Adam Humphries (26:43) strongly deserves your attention. How should we view Doug Baldwin (46:54) and Tyler Lockett moving forward though, how much time could Melvin Gordon (56:08) miss and who would benefit the most from his absence, and is it time to drop our optimism regarding Courtland Sutton (1:01:49)?

We break down this week's best DFS options on today's show. Nick Mullens (6:26) has a nice shot at hitting value against Tampa Bay, Christian McCaffrey's (16:57) ceiling may be lower than it has been in recent weeks, and Adam Humphries (30:19) figures to be a solid value option in cash games. Cameron Brate (36:36) is far and away the most obvious TE play, but who else at the position heavily deserves your attention (38:08)? Before concluding the show, we share our top three plays for the Thanksgiving slate (49:51).

On today's show we are joined by Doug Orth from FF Today and together we examine which borderline options you should insert into your lineup or sit on your bench. Should fantasy owners have full confidence in Marlon Mack (8:15) and Dalvin Cook (10:03) coming off relatively lackluster performances, is Tre'Quan Smith (25:55) suddenly a top-20 WR option, and does Taylor Gabriel (39:05) have a big week in store or is he too far down Chicago's receiving totem pole? In addition, can Chris Herndon (45:25) be considered a TE1 this week and will Russell Wilson's (54:00) lack of pass attempts catch up with him against Carolina?

Jake Ciely from The Athletic is in with us to discuss this week's top waiver wire options at each position. Who is the best widely available RB between Gus Edwards and Josh Adams (2:13), is D.J. Moore (18:20) the undisputed top wideout fantasy owners should target, and does Lamar Jackson deserve more consideration than Jameis Winston (34:59) if both are available? Also, does Eli Manning (41:52) have viability as a streamer and will Le'Veon Bell (55:34) be a first-round draft pick next preseason?

The Saints crushed the Eagles, Alex Smith was knocked out for the season, and Lamar Jackson started at QB, but ran with the ball 27 times! We're back with our weekly recap and one question some of you may be asking is, who is Gus Edwards (1:34)? Chris Carson appears to be the top dog as long as he's healthy (8:37), Kerryon Johnson got hurt so what should we make of the Lions RB depth (16:43), and is D.J. Moore better for fantasy than Devin Funchess at this point (20:15)? What's going to happen in Tennessee if Mariota misses time (24:55) and what are the impacts of Alex Smith's season-ending injury (39:56)? Phillip Lindsay continues to beast (1:00:08), here comes Keenan Allen's second-half surge (1:02:10), and it's time to move Josh Adams up the rankings (1:06:12).
