Fantasy Football Podcast 2016 - 10 Offseason Tips & Tricks

You do have an inherent risk with Marty McBride. He was already suspended. When is it okay to give a guy when the injury happens then? If the injury is eight weeks or the season or the full season or when a guy is suspended for partial games or not partial? Here's what the vote is. The vote is to undo that rule, not make an exception to that rule. You don't vote and say, should we just let this one slide? You vote and say, should we have trading in the offseason, not have to have the player kept?

Yeah. Otherwise, you've got to probably live with it. Yep. Or a buffer. You say there's a one to two week buffer zone where if something catastrophic happens. But that's something you've got to vote on. Andrew Z. in north of the wall. Andrew Zee is not going to get our message. He's north of the wall in a dangerous land. Good luck.

I love the idea of streaming, but last year I felt I made a mistake of using waiver position to stream. Later in the year, I realized they needed to make some moves in waivers primarily because Cheeseburger Eddie is large in my priority. I want a cheeseburger. I do too. It was way down because I had been streaming from the waivers. Do you guys recommend waiting until waivers pass to grab a quarterback for the week, or should I continue this practice to make sure?

That is a great, great question. And very, very often you should wait on your streaming quarterback. I completely agree. That's how I do it. I wait until the waivers have cleared. And I don't burn my priority trying to get the guy because there's generally three or four guys on the waiver wire that I'm perfectly happy to play. Now, every once in a while, you'll come into a situation and you'll see like a Kirk Cousins was going up against the Saints.

This is a slam dunk. I have to win this week. Then I'm okay burning the priority in that situation if you don't have another option. But for the most part, you will not, don't kill your priority for your streamer. Yeah. And the essence of that is that streaming is not a desperation move. You're not, you're approaching it.

With the power, with the idea that it's not, I can only stream one guy and I have to grab them. No, you're, you can stream multiple guys. That's the point. If there's only one guy everybody fought for every week, we wouldn't recommend streaming at all. So, uh, all right, but good question, Andrew. That is a great, a great one. And I would recommend what Mike just said. Also, I would like to thank Andrew for bringing up the, the beautiful words, cheeseburger.

I think this is the time we need to wrap the show. I'm starving. In like foil. And some five guys foil. And Andrew Z. Get some dragon glass. Yeah, that'll help you out north of the wall. Hey, thanks for listening to the show. Show after the show coming up soon. And we'll be back next Tuesday. So, yeah, that's when we'll be back. That is true. See you later. Goodbye.
