Joining host Pat Fitzmaurice (@Fitz_FF) this week is FantasyPros writer Bo McBrayer (@Bo_McBigTime) who also does PGA DFS analysis for In-Between Media, hosts the dynasty show “Hot Route with the King of Spice,” and is the creator of Hot Box Batch hot sauce. Bo brings the heat this week, discussing his preferred approach to dynasty startups, how he values the QB position in dynasty superflex startups, and the value of Dalvin Cook. Pat throws Bo a few player toss-ups for dynasty, including Ja’Marr Chase vs. Justin Jefferson, Diontae Johnson vs. Tee Higgins, Jerry Jeudy vs. Courtland Sutton, and Breece Hall vs. Antonio Gibson. 

Bo sheds light on his day job and explains how he got into the hot sauce business, and he and Pat talk about some of their DFS and betting favorites at The Masters this week. Bo and Pat dig into the rookie QB class, and Bo tells us why we should ignore the stopwatch when sizing up WR prospect David Bell. Bo contends that Amon-Ra St. Brown is overhyped, that Alexander Mattison might not have job security as Dalvin Cook’s backup in Minnesota, and that Jameis Winston and Marquez Callaway might be a perfect match.

Host Pat Fitzmaurice (@Fitz_FF) and guest Billy Muzio (@FFMuzio) of FullTime Fantasy take a closer look at the Tyreek Hill trade and all of its fantasy implications. How much value does Hill lose in Miami, and what does his arrival mean for Jaylen Waddle? How much more attractive does Tua Tagovailoa become as a fantasy asset? Is Patrick Mahomes still the QB2 for fantasy, or does losing Hill drop him in the rankings? Is JuJu Smith-Schuster going to return to stardom in Kansas City? Billy and Pat also discuss the Chiefs’ acquisition or Ronald Jones and what it might mean for Clyde Edwards-Helaire.

Pat, Jeremy, Michael, and Shane size up the rookie QB class and discuss some of the rookie WRs.

Alex and Pat talk about Deebo and Robinson’s futures and also revisit past conversations about Mac Jones and Rhamondre Stevenson. 

Alex talks about where to go for BBQ in Austin, Texas, and gives us a temperature check on the University of Texas football program after a lean first year under new head coach Steve Sarkisian.

Last week’s Senior Bowl kicked off draft season, and host Pat Fitzmaurice (@Fitz_FF) is joined this week by college football and NFL analyst John Laub (@GridironSchol91) of Football Diehards, co-host of The Draft Seminar. John and Pat dig into a perplexing QB class. Is Malik Willis at the head of the class after a strong Senior Bowl week? Is Kenny Pickett legit? Is Sam Howell being overlooked? There’s also some RB talk, as John puts the “Big Three” of Breece Hall, Isaiah Spiller, and Kenneth Walker under the microscope, then talks about a couple of his other favorites. 

John talks about being a high school history teacher, the joy of connecting with students, and which period in history he most enjoys teaching his student about. A New Haven resident, John touts the merits of New Haven-style pizza, including a mashed potato pizza. This year’s WR class is talented and deep, and John and Pat discuss Treylon Burks, Garrett Wilson, Drake London, and others. John also offers a parting Super Bowl prediction – and we should all hope he’s wrong.

It’s another dynasty-centric episode this week, as host Pat Fitzmaurice (@Fitz_FF) is joined by Jordan McNamara (@McNamaraDynasty) of FootballGuys, author of “The Analytics of Dynasty.” Jordan and Pat talk about the expected retirement of Tom Brady – his legacy, his torment of Bills fans over the years, his lost 2008 season – and how Brady’s departure affects the value of Mike Evans. Would you rather have Trevor Lawrence or Matthew Stafford in dynasty? Are we overvaluing the QBs from the 2021 rookie class? And do dynasty managers pay too much attention to the incoming rookies in general? Jordan and Pat offer their thoughts. 

Jonathan Taylor is the RB1 in everyone’s dynasty rankings, but who should be the RB2? Jordan and Pat tackle that question and discuss some other young RBs, including Cam Akers, J.K. Dobbins, and Travis Etienne. Jordan talks about cutting chips and chocolate out of his diet, and about his dismay at seeing Nirvana categorized as a classic-rock act. Jordan also talks about the 2022 edition of “The Analytics of Dynasty,” why he’s rethinking “the productive struggle,” and how to become a tax collector in dynasty leagues rather than a taxpayer. There’s also some discussion about new Giants head coach Brian Daboll, the Class of 2022, favorite deep dynasty stashes, and more.
