Who should be the first pick in a startup dynasty draft? We spend the first chunk of today's show answering that question and debating who it should be if it's NOT Christian McCaffrey. One of the young WRs? Jonathan Taylor, perhaps? Should DeAndre Hopkins be getting more consideration to be at least a first round pick in a startup dynasty league (11:55)? We also try to determine how old is too old when it comes to Fantasy production (16:00) ... Reviewing the latest news and notes (22:00). Golden Tate, Kyle Rudolph and Jared Cook were released. Does Tyrell Williams have value on Detroit? ... Back to Dynasty, we review last week's dynasty mock draft (30:45). Should Travis Kelce even be a Top 3 TE in this format (31:00)? Is Derrick Henry in Round 2 a better value than Austin Ekeler in Round 3 (39:00)? What other trends do Fantasy managers need to know? ... Your emails at [email protected]
