We finally had an NFL game to watch, and we've watched it, and now we'll talk about it! It's exciting! We'll discuss Texans/Chiefs and what we thought of all the stars (and supposed stars) on both teams, including a couple of running backs who figure to be worth quite a bit for fantasy football this year. We'll also take one more preview look at the rest of the league: which teams will be bad, which will be playing from behind, and what point-spread and over/under win total bets we like before the rest of Week 1 kicks off!

Time to start making those Week 1 fantasy football lineups. We don't *know* what's going to happen in a lot of circumstances because of injury and also because of depth chart shenanigans involving rookies, but we can talk through the processes we used to make our Week 1 ranks, and hopefully provide some insight about which running backs you can trust and which ones are best left on your bench! Guest: Jeff Erickson of Rotowire.

It's never too early to think about bolstering that fantasy football bench, and that's where our conversation starts today: we'll talk about lightly owned players who deserve your Week 1 waiver wire attention. Along the way, we'll also discuss the process of making Week 1 ranks, and how much we should change our opinions based on matchups. Guest: Brandon Funston of The Athletic.

It's Labor Day! Fantasy football drafts are just about done, and we're all ready for some actual games to begin. Before we get to Thursday night Chiefs/Texans, though, let's review some of the roster moves NFL teams made over the weekend, and let's discuss some of the contingency planning we're doing for what happens if players and teams miss games because of COVID. Plus we'll have some fun with a music digression *and* a mixtape! Music from Bad Moves.

Your fantasy football draft approaches, and you're looking for some mid- to later-round players who could pop in 2020. Today we'll take the perspective that *everyone* overrates situation, and in fact once the season begins, we could wind up being quite surprised by which teams are good and which teams aren't, and therefore it makes sense to invest in talented players. If their situations get better or their depth charts clear up, they could wind up being valuable fantasy commodities! Guest: Sam Gold of The Athletic.

We spend all summer developing hot takes about players we would and wouldn't take in a fantasy football draft. And we stick by them! But we know that if we're wrong, we'll look like dodos! Today's show is our chance to pick hills to die on, as we count down players we're worried we're wrong about for fantasy in 2020. Guest. Denny Carter of Rotoworld and Draft Day Consultants.

Denny's Five Players He's Worried He's Wrong About:

5. DeVante Parker in the 6th round...what if that's a bad pick!

4. Jonathan Taylor in the 3rd round…what if Marlon Mack is too much of a factor!

3. Mike Evans and Chris Godwin…what if the Bucs offense is just meh!

2. Juju Smith-Schuster…what if Roethlisberger gets hurt!

1. Cam Akers…what if he’s awesome!

 

Chris's Five Players He's Worried He's Wrong About:

5. What if the rookie WRs really can't play at all yet?

4. What if the Patriots really *have* given Damien Harris their starting RB job without making it known?

3. What if Odell Beckham is still a turd?

2. What if Zach Ertz really isn't bankable anymore?

1. What if Miles Sanders is actually ready to be an RB1?
