Mike Gesicki's Target Volume is No Fluke! | Stats With Sam: The Top 5 Things You NEED to Know for Week 3

Joey P., Tags, and Yates are back to predict what will happen during the NFL's free agency period. Where does it make the most sense for Aaron Jones (4:39) to wind up and has Leonard Fournette (17:33) played his way into a starting role somewhere else? Will Allen Robinson (30:52) finally be united with a quality signal-caller and where do we expect JuJu Smith-Schuster (38:23) sign? Does Dak Prescott (1:02:57) actually leave Dallas and is Jameis Winston (1:08:58) primed to be the Saints' starting QB?

Travis May of RotoViz is with us as we chat about our favorite comparisons and team fits for each top RB, WR, and QB in this year's NFL Draft. Where would we like to see Najee Harris (4:22) wind up and which current NFL star RB is Travis Etienne's (8:34) closest comparison? Why is it so difficult to compare Ja'Marr Chase (28:46) to anyone? What do we expect from Trevor Lawrence (55:31) as a rookie and which pro QB does Justin Fields' (1:00:00) game resemble the most?

We've got a packed show for you today! Our guys kick off the show by analyzing the Carson Wentz trade (3:47) before sharing our thoughts on last year's top breakout players and determining whether their production was legitimate (13:33). Were Antonio Gibson's (21:26) flashes of brilliance in the season's second half a fluke and will Justin Jefferson's (25:14) rookie production ultimately be hard to repeat in 2021? Are we buying or selling Justin Herbert's (34:41) stellar rookie season as the standard of what we should expect from him moving forward? Next, we dig into the listener mailbag and determine which second-year players have the highest floor and ceiling moving into Year 2 (39:51) before closing out the show with a fun round of Fantasy or Reality (54:24).

Joe Pisapia makes his debut as a member of the FantasyPros crew! Together, our trio breaks down their favorite takeaways from last season. Don't make the mistake of undervaluing Derrick Henry (7:34) in PPR leagues. Why would it make the most sense for Corey Davis (27:33) to stay in Tennessee this year? Is a big season in store for Chase Claypool (42:32), or do all the question marks surrounding the Steelers' offense dampen his outlook? Was the connection between Stefon Diggs (48:06) and Josh Allen the real deal? The show concludes with us tackling your listener mailbag questions (1:03:25)!

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)!
