Dynasty Fever

In this episode we discuss which asset we will want to most come April 1, 2024 from among groups of similarly valued pieces. Will Jesse stand by recent my guys like Russ, Stafford and Kupp? Which receiver gives him "JJeff vibes"? Which QB is a surprising sell for Brian? -- Please make sure you subscribe, rate, and review. Thanks for listening!

Brian and Jesse react to the previous three days [and a little more] of "frenzy" in free agency and trades and discuss the dynasty fantasy football implications thereof. We cover a lot of ground and, as always, have some fun along the way. Follow the show on Twitter at @DynastyFeverPod. Please subscribe, rate, and review. Thanks for listening!

We're back after a week off to dive back into dynasty fantasy football rookie fever. We're joined by Dynasty Rewind's Mike Bower (@RewindCEO) to discuss his evaluation process and some of his "my guys." We then play a little buy/sell/hold-keep/trade/cut with players and narratives. You'll hear about a lot of tight ends, Jesse's defense of Sean Tucker, Mike's hate for Zach Evans, and the proper way...

We're joined by Jay Stein (@_jasonstein) of The Devy Royale (@TheDevyRoyale) and now The Football Guys (@footballguys) to discuss analytics and applying them to rookie prospects. We talk about analytics in general and then hit on each position group. There are some very good insights in this episode to incorporate into (y)our rookie process. You can follow the show on Twitter @DynastyFeverPod. Ple...

What an episode! We were so glad to have Matt Hicks (@TheFF_Educator), creator of The Rookie Big Board, back this year to talk rookies. We dig into Matt's process, discuss the need for context and maintaining perspective when evaluating incoming rookies, and hit on a number of prospects. We also briefly cover Senior Bowl developments before previewing the combine, then get a few "my guys" from Mat...

In this episode we discuss the upcoming shifts to the dynasty RB landscape given the deep free agent class and deep rookie class. We identify prime landing spots and ways to get ahead of the madness. You can follow the show on Twitter at @DynastyFeevrPod. Thanks for listening!

Before the usual blurb, we apologize for Brian's audio being a bit off. There was a problem with a setting on the mic. In this episode, we discuss the rookie 1.01 - Why is it Bijan? When/why might you trade it? When/why might you buy it? What should you get/what is it worth? Where would you take it in a startup? We detour into devy a bit, too, discussing the supplemental 1.01 and Arch Manning. As...

We're back w/Dallas Hyder (@SalladGalore) of The Rookie Rundown for round two of our first rookie mock draft of the season. Some players who notably slid from round 1 are discussed among the rest of the round's picks. We end with some thoughts on guys to look out for who we did not draft in these first two rounds. Please subscribe, rate, and review. You can follow the show on Twitter at @DynastyFe...

It's rookie season! We sat down with Rookie Rundown host Dallas Hyder (@SalladGalore) for a two-round rookie mock draft based on an NFL mock generated on Mock Draft Database. This episode covers round 1, with a couple surprises as far as who is missing. You'll have to tune in to round 2 to see where those players went and why. Please subscribe rate and review. You can follow the show on Twitter at...

In part 2 of our first episode back from hiatus, we continue the rookie report cards. This time we focused on what became a good TE class and some surprising RBs - as well as some disappointing ones. Please remember to subscribe, rate, and review. You can follow the show on Twitter at @DynastyFeverPod. Thanks for listening.

We're back! After a few weeks for a wellness break, we return to put a bow on the 2022 season by evaluating several rookies at each position. After discussing Phish and Sean McVay, we jump into some WRs (a few expected, maybe a couple unexpected), and QBs (where Jesse's contribution was just "Bluh" noise. Part two posts today as well, where we discuss TEs & RBs. Please subscribe rate and revie...

We split this episode into two parts because our Fever and Chills segment led to a wide-ranging discussion about our approaches to dynasty, the lines we draw and musts we have, the contradictions we embody, the differing importance we each place on challenge and growth, and the value fantasy football has in our lives. We honestly feel this is some of the best conversations we've ever had on our sh...

In this episode, we revisit the tight end landscape. With some shifts up top and the rise of a (surprisingly) solid 2022 rookie class, we decided to talk about strategy/approach and nail down players values. We also briefly touch on the 2023 rookie tight end group, where Jesse reveals his love for a new "my guy" rookie riser not named Michael Mayer. Also included - the eliteness of BOTH Kelces, a...

In this episode we discuss some RB values, including a focus on how you can take teams that may not be a true top 2-3 contender this year and pivot to competing in 2023 while getting good pieces for some bigger name but not-so-young RBs. We also briefly discuss some of the lower-ranked, somewhat younger RBs can be potential sells for you. We try to nail down a bit what you can/should get for Chubb...

In this clip, Jesse expresses his disgust for Jared Goff and his contempt for the idea the Lions would keep him. This leads us into a bit of a trip down memory lane at just how bad the Lions' QB history has been. Maybe with that checkered past, they should draft Young or Stroud?

We're back! We are feeling good after a bit of a break, and return with a dive back into the dynasty QB landscape. We discuss Zach Wilson/Mike White, how many QBs do we trust?, Jordan Love & Jimmy G, and our pre-pre-view of the 2023 QB rookie class. Of course, we also do our Temperature Check segment with your poll answers and our Fever and Chills segment. You can follow the show on Twitter at...

Getting old kinda sucks...

We return to our study of RBs who bounced back well (or not) from ACLs in an effort to continue to assess what to do with Breece Hall and Javonte Williams.

Jesse is back after being under the weather last week, and we discuss some ideas for contenders and rebuilders as the halfway point of the NFL season is here, and trade deadlines loom in dynasty leagues that use them. Jesse offers some general guidance for contenders, as well as trade targets, and Brian does the same for rebuilders. A few of the usual fun tangents happen, including identifying the...

Brian (@ffjunkie_) is flying solo in this episode (sorry, Jesse stans). I give some brief reactions (possibly contrarian) to a few NFL trades before discussing the dynasty TE landscape. Of course, you still get Temperature Check and Fever and Chills. You can follow the show on Twitter at @DynastyFeverPod. Thanks for listening!

Hi, folks. We cut this clip out of the main episode (Episode 55). We discuss Breece Hall and his trade market and RB ACLs. Jesse gets research homework on this topic. Thanks for listening. 

Brian (ffjunkie_) and Jesse (@DWZ_WarGames) discuss the current state of dynasty WR. The landscape is changing and people seem to value players pretty differently once you get past the top 12 or so, and we give our two cents on all of it. We dive deep and have interesting debates. Plus: Jesse learns a new word, Ron Rivera is on a hit TV show, a Temperature Check segment with your answers to our po...

In this episode, Brian (@ffjunkie_) and Jesse (@DWZ_WarGames) survey the shifting landscape of dynasty RB. We try to answer who is #2, how much being a top dynasty RB means, and who we feel confident about. We also discuss how we rank and value some players in the RB2 range, how the changes in RB might affect draft strategy, your Twitter poll responses, and much more. Plus: the return of the Fever...

This week, Brian and Jesse discuss "dynasty mirages" - things that look good, but are not what they seem. A buzzy WR (and his whole offense) is questioned, as is a rising rookie. Then we discuss an unsustainably pass happy offense that gets a possible downgrade at QB. As we make the case for our mirages, we discuss possible ways to leverage these situations via trade, as well as what the future mi...

Hi folks! Brian and Jesse are back with a new episode. Brian messed up and called it episode 52, but it's really 51. In this episode we admit we're wrong on players, but make the case we're not AS wrong and you might think. Jalen Hurts and Amon-Ra St. Brown are prominently featured. Added bonus: Seinfeld dating quirks references and the silver linings of a shattered ankle. You can follow the show...
