The Extra Point: Marvin Harrison Jr., Kyren Williams & the Signings of Dalvin Cook and Noah Brown (Ep. 1339)

The NFL season is finally upon us! We'll be here before the first game each week to give you our thoughts on which guys you should start in your lineup or sit on your bench for the week. Before getting into the meat of the show, we break down some depth chart news and give you the latest on the Le'Veon Bell holdout (15:43). Should fantasy owners be concerned about Philip Rivers' historically underwhelming performances against Kansas City (25:59), and how problematic will Tennessee's run defense be for Kenyan Drake (32:47)? Also, is Sterling Shepard a startable wideout against Jacksonville (53:33), and which tight end should you be looking to stream if you're in a pinch (58:06)?

With the regular season quickly approaching, our hosts explore which commonly unowned players you would be wise to hold on to. However, we start the show going over the Khalil Mack trade (3:25 & 13:51) and debating who steps up in Jerick McKinnon's absence (7:24). Why does DeVante Parker (22:32) deserve to be rostered in all fantasy leagues? Does Anthony Miller have more upside than Chris Godwin (30:18)? How high is Corey Clement's potential (45:16) in Philadelphia if Jay Ajayi were to miss time?

Whether you've drafted already or not, we're talking late-round fliers that are worth stashing to start the season. Joining us for this show is Sigmund Bloom of Footballguys. The season is just about here and with that, we're looking at what to make of Royce Freeman sitting the final game of the preseason (3:36) and Ronald Jones's struggles. We then take turns naming our favorite fliers to snag at the end of drafts starting with T.J. Yeldon (9:12). Sigmund explains what you should be looking for in RB stashes (10:46), and we touch on a few other stashes like Anthony Miller (21:20) and Cordarrelle Patterson (25:24). To wrap up the show, we're running through our favorite QB streamers starting in Week 1 (38:36), how to pick your kickers and who's worth drafting (41:21), and what your strategy should be when considering defenses (47:18).

Justin Boone from theScore is with us as we share which players we are actively targeting and who we are steering clear of. Patrick Mahomes (14:17) may have high upside, but should his tough early-season schedule dampen your outlook? Does Alex Collins (27:48) have a stranglehold on the Ravens' starting running back job? With his ADP swiftly rising, does Amari Cooper (42:26) still have enough equity built into his ADP? Is Trey Burton (50:38) the tight end to aim for if you've missed out on the elite options? At the end of the show, our hosts go rapid fire and name players at each position they would want on their bench.

Jamey Eisenberg from CBS Sports joins the show as we discuss some of the larger discrepancies between his rankings and the Expert Consensus Rankings. Does Russell Wilson carry more risk than people realize (6:05), will Kerryon Johnson's talent earn him the lion's share of Detroit's backfield touches (18:32), and should fantasy owners fully buy into Marquise Goodwin's upside (30:30)? We end the show analyzing the latest news and ponder how long Alshon Jeffery's injury woes will linger (34:29) and whether fantasy owners should be concerned about Adam Thielen's leg injury (42:25).

Football Diehards' Bob Harris is with us as we shed some light on which players you will surely regret drafting. However, before we jump into that, we just can't understand why the Broncos have decided not to start Royce Freeman (8:13). It's hard to trust Devonta Freeman (25:29) with how much work he cedes to Tevin Coleman, Derrick Henry's (36:04) current situation is very similar to what he experienced last year, and Alshon Jeffery (47:41) is unjustly being taken as a top 30 WR.

Mike Wright from The Fantasy Footballers joins the crew as we each share which players could possess league-winning upside. But first, we decide how far Keelan Cole (5:00) should move up the rankings in the wake of Marqise Lee's season-ending injury. During the meat of the show, we all agree that New England's depleted receiving corps leaves Rob Gronkowski (19:50) with league-winning ability. Does Joe Mixon (25:41) truly possess elite potential behind a subpar offensive line, though? Also, Mark Ingram (33:40) may seemingly be primed to be an RB1 upon his return, but is Corey Davis' (55:48) upside limited by both his quarterback and the smorgasbord of other receiving options in Tennessee?
