Pod After Touchdown

We kick off this week discussing which player, who is currently being drafted in double digit rounds, we are most likely to have on several of our teams. For our Mental Health Minute Sam leads the way and talks about the mental health sick day he took last week. We also cover the stigma currently associated with taking sick days off from work for mental health reasons. After that we slide into our first mock draft of the 2020 season. Highlights include Sam being very judgemental of Garner's QB and Andrew realizing he might have inadvertently drafted from ADP, not his rankings, and missed one of his guys.

This week starts a little different as we acknowledge the nation wide protests and what is currently going on in our country. In place of our Mental Health Minute, we share social media posts from Patrick Mahomes and Tyler Lockett relating to the protests. Then we transition back to fantasy football with our kick off question. We discuss whether or not we are in favor of targeting an elite TE in the first 3 rounds. One last time we break into our rankings debates. Sam and Andrew throw down stats, facts and strong opinions as they take turns  explaining why they have selected tight ends ranked differently. They each have one minute to make a compelling case and offer rebuttal, then Garner decides who provided the better argument for the player's ranking.

We kick off this week with an audible from Sam. Instead of our planned kick off question, Sam switches it up and asks how early Andrew and Garner would consider drafting Lamar Jackson. For our Mental Health Minute we highlight a recent ESPN Daily podcast episode where Mina talks to Hayden Hurst about mental health. Then we break into our quarterback rankings debates. Sam and Andrew throw down once more and take turns explaining why they have selected quarterbacks ranked differently. They each have one minute to make a compelling case and offer rebuttal, then Garner decides who provided the better argument for the player's ranking.

We kick off this week trying to figure out which WR we think can have a Chris Godwin-like season in 2020 (a young receiver that isn't considered WR1 but has the potential and opportunity) . For our Mental Health Minute we open up about times when we have considered quitting fantasy football. Then we transition into our wide receiver rankings debates. Once again, Sam and Andrew take turns explaining why they have certain wide receivers ranked differently. They each have one minute to make a compelling case and offer rebuttal, then Garner decides who provided the better argument for the player's ranking.

We kick off this week talking about which running backs we are having the hardest time ranking. Then we unveil something very special to us and announce the launch of the Fantasy Football Mental Health Initiative, a campaign to drive more awareness and funding for mental health issues. Then we transition into our running back rankings debates. Sam and Andrew take turns explaining why they have selected running backs ranked differently. They each have one minute to make a compelling case and offer rebuttal, then Garner decides who was more convincing and has the player ranked appropriately.

Lastly, we answer a few questions from some of our amazing listeners. Special thanks to @AmbrosinoNFL, Ryan Radtke and @SallyIsADog for the great questions.

We kick off this week discussing who would be our ideal veteran QB to play backup for and learn from as a rookie.  Then we get into recapping the NFL draft and some of the fantasy implications coming from it such as our favorite rookie landing spots, biggest non-rookie risers and fallers, top 3 rookie RB and WR for redraft leagues, and which position battle we're most interested in following the next couple of months. 

Next episode we'll be answering listener questions, so don't forget to reach out to us on Twitter with your fantasy football questions.

We kick off this week laying out some BOLD fantasy football predictions we have for the NFL season that we're going to take our claim on right now.

We kick off another week of social distance podcasting and lay out each of our optimal broadcast teams consisting of Nickelodeon characters. That's followed up with an onside kick question where we each lay out which team's virtual war room we'd like to see inside of. Then we discuss which current players we think have the most to gain and lose as a result of the draft., which under-the-radar prospects we're keeping a close eye on their landing spot, and which landing spots would make a prospect more or less favorable to draft.

We kick off this week of remote podcasting discussing our favorite part about the new CBA deal from a fantasy football perspective . Then we discuss the outcomes of the recent free agency and trading activity including who moved up our boards the most, who moved down the most, and who we're targeting now because of these FA moves. We end this episode with a lightning round of choosing between different teammate pairings that we would draft to our teams this year.

We  kick off this week discussing our favorite potential free agent landing spots, which includes a 3 way beer bet. Once that's settled, we move on to early ECR vs. ADP of some players to watch or avoid going into this upcoming year.  In the second half we cover the head coaching changes through the NFL and the impact they could have on their teams and our fantasy teams.  We speculate which coaches will have the most positive, the most negative and the widest range out outcomes on the impact of their players' fantasy production this year.
