Nick Guarisco (@FantasyLawGuy) analyzes the impact of LeSean McCoy signing with Tampa Bay before tackling a great Insta Question: “Who is this year’s Darren Waller?” A process of elimination reveals a top-five of sorts. A second Insta Q asks what to make of Ravens WR Marquise Brown, and strong arguments both in favor and against drafting him are provided. Why are WRs like Brown so fragile? The “2-Minute-Warning Rant” (which is more like 2 minutes in “football time”) of today’s show intensely implores your fantasy football league to adopt the “Guarisco Playoff Format!” In this passionate soliloquy, Nick explains why the most popular fantasy playoff formats are terrible and why the “GPF” is the ultimate solution.

In this jam-packed episode, Nick Guarisco (@FantasyLawGuy) opens with first huge piece of news for the 2020 fantasy football season: Damien Williams' opt out and the ramifications for Clyde Edwards-Helaire. How far does the "Fresh Prince" move up in drafts? Other player opt-outs have ripple effects in fantasy football as well. An Instagram Question asks Nick to explore the depths of this year’s tight end position. Is George Kittle a primary objective in Round 2, or is he being drafted too high? Is Darren Waller an easy fade at cost? Which mid-to-late round TEs - out of Evan Engram, Hunter Henry, Tyler Higbee, Jared Cook, and Rob Gronkowski - should be avoided and which should be targeted? Nick dives deep into the curious case of Tyler Higbee, perhaps the most polarizing player in the fantasy expert community, and explains why he’s in the minority school of thought. A second Instagram Question asks what pick (1-12) is most preferred? The “2-Minute-Warning Rant” of today’s show explains why it’s more fair to have an even number of rounds in your snake draft than an odd number of rounds. 

Nick Guarisco (@FantasyLawGuy) participates in a live, simulated MOCK DRAFT. He drafts from the 6th pick in a .5 PPR league format and faces plenty of predicaments as he navigates through the draft, including deliberating whether Miles Sanders is the right pick in Round 2. Which 3rd Round WR is most appealing? Is Brandin Cooks a wise or wasted pick? 

The “Fantasy Nugget” of today’s show involves Miles Sanders. 

Give this lengthy episode a listen and grade Nick’s team!

Nick Guarisco (@FantasyLawGuy) takes a look at the early Yahoo! Rankings and dishes out his Top-6 strongest disagreements with them, using stats and analysis to support his stances. The 49ers DST, Robert Woods, D’Andre Swift, Marlon Mack, Will Fuller, and Matt Breida are discussed. There’s a great Instagram Question asking how commissioners should handle setting up their drafts and implementing new league rules due to COVID. Nick rants about his preference for early or late drafts, preaches the importance of adding an extra IR Spot and Bench spot, explains his opinion on “League Cut-Offs” (Re: declaring a champion / distributing prize money in a shortened season) and questions whether the popular narrative of fading rookies and players on new teams because of COVID is being overblown. As a result, should we employ a contrarian strategy? The “Fantasy Nugget” of today’s show concerns Matt Stafford, Kenny Golladay, and Marvin Jones.
