The Poor Man Fantasy Football League Podcast

Westward Ho! To the land of the NFC West. A once prominent and powerful division, now it’s a shadow of its former self. What was once one of the premiere divisions has now turned itself into that awkward league mate whose team has no synergy, relying on older recycled vets, unsupported rookie talent, oft injured starters, and overpriced salvage projects. Yet, it still has some fantasy darlings with a few high-risk high-reward players that might be worth taking. For example, would you rather have CMC & Marvin Harrison or Puka Nacia & George Kittle?

The AFC North should be shared with friends and as such we invited our friend @SlickBurn to join the show. We catch up on our summer adventures and nobody points out how sunburnt I am, either these are some good friends or I need to invest in a better camera. All jokes aside, including everything you can say about the Cleveland Browns, this was a fun division to talk about with lots of fantasy options, some of the best actually. But decide for yourself and let us know what you think about the AFC North.

We’re three episodes into breaking down each division with this week featuring the AFC East. What a joy it was to talk about all the fantasy goodness this division brings to football, not. This division feels like one of the scariest ones with the amount of potential for failure. It comes down to what you believe and we differ on who we like in this division as fantasy assets. How do you feel about the AFC East?

We’re back after a brief summer vacation to breakdown the AFC West and all the ridiculous news that came up. Like, the never ending stream of arrests. We also talk about the 2nd round rookie contract hold outs, Shemar Stewart, and how Andrew thinks Travis Kelce will return to peak form this year. It’s not likely, but let us know what you think @all

It’s summertime, it’s hot, and training camps are just about to start. Which means it’s time to start our annual Divisional Breakdowns and to kick it off is the AFC South. They’re not the sexiest division in football, or the most popular, heck they may not even be the most athletic division, but they are the first on our list…to get out of the way. Now let’s talk trash about these four teams @all

@ANDPRY came up with another early season bet that was too much fun to wait for, so this week we dialed up the wheel of death to help us select a fantasy roster of all backups & second fiddles. It presented an interesting thought experiment on who thought the #2 guys were/are on their teams at each position and what we thought about their season long fantasy potential could be. Fun time @all

Burgers, rookie contracts, and some predictions on who the Top 3 at each position might be. That’s what’s on the menu this week @all.

Last week we drafted an @all AFC team for each other to kick off this season’s bets. Now we get to select “the best” players from the NFC. This one did not work out the same way with one team being far more powerful on paper, but anything can happen in this season-long bet.

We're back in the void where there is no real football to talk about. So we decided to get creative and find ways to talk about the game we love and then make it competitive with betting. So we drafted fantasy teams for each other using the Wheel of Death and only players from the AFC. What treat it was picking the "best" players for each other. Let's see who wins this season long bet @all

With our rookie draft done, it’s time again to look back into the past at last year’s draft and see how we would draft those players knowing what we know now. Hindsight 20/20 does allow us to make “better” selections or at least recognize with a bit more clarity on who could be better, and the first two rounds look vastly different. With special guest labrebis helping to order our selections (with a few technical difficulties), we bang out what essentially is our Top 20 Rookies of 2024
