Fantasy Football Podcast 2016 - Rising Stars, Preseason Takeaways, News, Injuries

The all-important W in preseason. Yeah. You know who won the game for me was T.J. Eldon. Yeah, you know, you were saying. He's been my guy all offseason and he looks really, really good to me. He's going far behind Chris Ivory in most drafts. Crazy talk. And if I had, if they were going right next to each other and, you know, let's say they were the only back left, I would absolutely be picking T.J. Yeldon over Chris Ivory. He's going, Yelden's going behind Woodhead.

He's going behind Forset. He's going where Crowell is going. He's going behind Abdullah. He's going behind Derek Henry, Duke Johnson. I would take him over every name I just said. I would take him over everybody except for Danny Woodhead. There you go. I just think he looks really good. I'm impressed with him. PPR, half-point leagues. I think Yeldin is a running back two. I think he's very safely in that running back two discussions. So other than that...

Brandon Lafell started over Tyler Boyd in this game. And that's what's going to happen. That's the warning I gave with. Marvin Lewis, he wants to bring rookies along slow. And if Lafell's healthy, Boyd is not going to be the outside starting wide receiver. Yeah. But if depth at that position on that team is a concern. You saw when Green went down, it really impacts that offense. So.

I mean, not that that wouldn't be the case normally, but losing Marvin Jones and losing Mohammed Sunu, they have to find another balance. And Tyler Eifford right now. Right, and Iifer right now. But I think they're going to be a really good team, too. I was impressed with the Bengals. I was impressed with the Chiefs this weekend. We have somehow blitzed all the preseason games. I hope that was comprehensible. I hope that was useful. We try to focus on those takeaways, get through those games. If you're drafting this week, you know, we have two drafts this week.

We have our League of Record. We have the listener league draft this week. I think tomorrow or Wednesday. And so, you know, every little bit of news matters. And this is a big, fun, fun week for shows. We're going to have some bold predictions this week. And our famous My Guys episode will be coming out this week last year. I think some of our My Guys.

We had Alan Robinson in there and Tyler I for some guys that really helped win leagues last year for where they were going in draft. So you don't want to miss the My Guys episode, the guys that the fantasy footballers want on as many teams as we can have. Absolutely. So thanks for tuning in. Hopefully, Mike will be back tomorrow.
