We take a look at where 2019's top free agents might be heading this offseason alongside our guest, Eliot Crist from The Quant Edge. The guys predict where Antonio Brown (5:26) and Odell Beckham (10:18) may get traded to and discuss where Le'Veon Bell (21:41) could land. Would Tyrod Taylor (14:10) be a better fit for Jacksonville than Nick Foles (12:32), and are the Colts the best team for John Brown (33:50)? As the show draws to a close, the trio examines where the top non-skill position free agents could end up (43:48).

The combine has wrapped up and while some players will show off their measurables through pro days, we've now had a chance to combine our film reviews with raw measuring sticks for those that participated. Andy Singleton of Expand the Boxscore joins us to walk through all the key offensive positions of fantasy football and name the biggest risers and fallers at the RB (3:03), WR (13:06), QB (31:05) and TE (41:47) positions. Devin Singletary's stock dropped, but how much (5:01)? Andy Isabella ran a 4.31 (27:46)? Kyler Murray is taller than we thought he was and is he now worth the top pick (31:05)?

Which players will we be watching at the combine, who has the most to prove, and what are the drills we should pay the most attention to? Matt Waldman of FootballGuys.com joins the fray to give his insight on all this and more. Which specific drill might be the best indicator of a wide receiver's ability to succeed at the next level (12:05) and what qualities are we looking for in D.K. Metcalf's (14:53) combine performance? Which version of Bryce Love (28:04) might the NFL see in 2019, is Kyler Murray's (37:53) size a huge concern for him heading into the draft, and which tight ends further down draft boards are we keeping a close eye on throughout the combine (53:35)?

R.C. Fischer of Fantasy Football Metrics helps us kick off our draft coverage as we provide an overview of this draft class's most potentially impactful players at each skill position. Is there a possibility Josh Jacobs (3:43) may not be the top back in this class, are draftniks sleeping on Trayveon Williams (9:39), and is D.K. Metcalf (34:29) being overhyped? David Sills (46:36) may have the talent to make it in the NFL, but will he get the opportunity? Plus, can any rookie QBs outside of Kyler Murray (56:04) make an immediate fantasy impact, and who would be the more desirable fantasy tight end between Irv Smith (1:02:55) and Noah Fant (1:04:09)?

The crew spends today's show largely discussing who dynasty leaguers should get rid of while they can and which players would be solid buys on the cheap. Emmanuel Sanders and Demaryius Thomas (7:18) are two receivers who may not have much left in the tank, whereas Jameis Winston (27:33) is trending up thanks to a coaching change and solid surrounding cast. Plus, how does Joe Flacco's (34:17) arrival affect Denver's wideouts, what do we make of Cleveland's acquisition of Kareem Hunt (36:43), and is Patrick Mahomes (47:56) worth trading away for the fourth overall pick in a rookie draft?

Our guys each give their top 10 favorite statistical takeaways from this past NFL season. Marcus Mariota's (10:47) vast number of passing yards per passing TD doesn't bode well for his 2019 production and Jameis Winston (14:24) is the ultimate gunslinger based on his air yard percentage. Jared Goff's (25:57) offensive line was a huge factor in his success and Christian McCaffrey (36:35) may struggle to come close to last year's record-breaking reception total.
