DO NOT DRAFT These 8 Running Backs At Their Cost: Why Zamir White May Get Fewer Touches Than You Think (Ep. 1317)

We're joined by Matthew Freedman of The Action Network to give the lowdown on how we think the quarterback and tight end position groups stack up heading into 2021. With the Super Bowl still fresh on our minds though and free agency coming up, what might happen with Chris Godwin (8:04) and Leonard Fournette (10:36)? How high should Clyde Edwards-Helaire be in the rankings (13:40)? With a fair amount of agreement, we're looking at a few QBs where the guys aren't on the same side like with Jalen Hurts (25:33).  At the tight end position, how high should Travis Kelce go (38:27) and what's Stafford's impact on Tyler Higbee (40:52)?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Our guys are back to share their 2021 WR rankings and give their thoughts on who they disagree on the most. However, we first dive into the huge Matthew Stafford/Jared Goff (7:18) deal and break down how it affects the fantasy landscape. Does Chase Claypool's (24:43) fantasy relevance hinge on whether JuJu Smith-Schuster returns to Pittsburgh next season? How wide is the gulf between CeeDee Lamb and Michael Gallup (42:34)? Will less volume push Odell Beckham (50:36) outside the top 20 WRs, or will a revamped Baker Mayfield keep him within that threshold? Finally, we close out the episode with our Super Bowl predictions (55:26)!

Our main trio is here to discuss their favorite fits for both Deshaun Watson (4:24) and Matthew Stafford (14:28). Next, the guys discuss which RBs they disagree on the most in their early rankings. Who is the better back to select between Saquon Barkley and Alvin Kamara (20:15)? Does J.K. Dobbins (37:18) have RB1 potential, or is touchdown regression looming for him?

Eliot Crist of FTN joins us to discuss the best DFS plays ahead of the NFL Conference Championships! Is Clyde Edwards-Helaire (5:55) a viable cash game option if he plays, or will Darrel Williams (6:45) take away too much work from him? Should we take the discount and play Mike Evans (19:52) and is Josh Allen's (27:09) high floor and ceiling too good to ignore? Dawson Knox (32:17) is a good dart throw for two-TE lineups or those looking to spend down at the position.

Derek Brown of FTN has joined us as we dive into this weekend's playoff matchups to find both the top cash game (5:30) and GPP DFS plays (49:19). Does Stefon Diggs' (11:14) price make him a more compelling play on DraftKings than Tyreek Hill (10:12), or is Hill's higher floor too attractive to pass on? Does the cash game QB conversation end with Lamar Jackson (18:35) and Patrick Mahomes (20:41) or does Buffalo's near complete reliance on their passing game make Josh Allen (24:00) very difficult to fade? Michael Thomas (41:46) appears to be undervalued in his matchup against Tampa Bay's beatable secondary. Travis Kelce (27:35) is the main tight end worth playing, but who else should you go with if you choose to spend down at the position in cash games (46:49)? Gabriel Davis (52:29) has an exploitable CB matchup and can be a solid contrarian GPP play if the Bills pass early and often.

Derek Carty of ESPN is with us as we give the scoop on this weekend's best cash game (2:37) and GPP plays (38:28). Which QB is the top cash QB between Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson (11:10) and does Diontae Johnson (26:19) present the most value at his price or does the slightly more expensive Michael Thomas (24:22) present even more upside? Is this the week to utilize a contrarian stack with the Bears (48:16), especially given the upside Mitch Trubisky (42:39) and Cole Kmet (44:01) present?

Our trio is in the house to go over their best and worst preseason calls ahead of the 2020 season. Believing in Calvin Ridley's (6:35) ascension to WR1 status was the right call, but A.J. Green (16:44) was a big disappointment for one of our analysts given not only what he expected of Green, but also the air yards and targets the wideout accrued early in the season. Drafting Corey Davis (30:26) late paid off for those who listened to Tags, but what did we get so wrong about Keenan Allen and Stefon Diggs (35:53)? What lessons were learned after missing on Justin Jefferson (41:41) and why were we all too high on Henry Ruggs (43:38)? Was Yates ultimately right on Jonnu Smith (49:13) and T.Y. Hilton (49:45)? Why were we so off on Kenyan Drake (54:57) and which of us was highest on James Robinson (1:01:20)? The show concludes with a fun exercise where we make our predictions for each round of the NFL Playoffs (1:04:08)!
