The Tight Ends, Kickers and Defenses Show- 8.10.17

For the past few weeks we have gone position by position talking about strategies for drafting each position, which players to avoid and who we think you should target. This week we will be wrapping up our positions analysis and will talk about tight ends, kickers and defenses. In this episode, Ashley explains why she is never willing to draft Gronkowski despite his ADP finally falling to the 2nd round, Brandon thinks Austin Hooper will have a bump in production this year and thinks the value in the 13th round is on point, and Courtney explains why she thinks it is okay to take a defense before the last 2 rounds of the...

The Other Guys Preseason Show- 8.4.16

We have talked about the quarterbacks, running backs and wide receivers…it is now time to talk about the “other guys” who make up the rest of your fantasy football roster. That would be the ever frustrating tight end position, the kickers who are constantly a debate of whether they matter or not and the defenses who are usually one of the last pick ups of the draft. These guys might not bring the star power as the other sexy positions but you better believe they still serve a purpose on your roster and that you very much still need to pay attention and plan for them. In this episode Brandon is down on both Gronk and Bennett due to strength of schedule and the absence of Brady for four games; Ashley talks about how the Seattle Seahawks are the barometer for when defenses fly off the board, for which Courtney compares to Ashley throwing up on carnival rides; and Courtney talks about how her belief that every team’s offense in the AFC West has improved might have an impact on Kansas City as a top...

Week 16 Defenses: Playoffs Tiered Starts & Streams Tier 1 Defenses: Carolina Panthers, Kansas City Chiefs, Denver Broncos, Seattle Seahawks The Panthers gave up 38 points to the Saints in Week 13 and then allowed the Giants to drop 35 on them last week. However, sandwiched in between those games was a stone-cold shutout of the Falcons, who are the Panthers’ Week 16 opponent. This is a two-man offense, as Julio Jones and Devonta Freeman are the only explosive elements on Atlanta. This is the championship–don’t get cute. Another week, another game where the Chiefs D/ST puts up double-digits. This team has allowed 20 or more points only twice in the last 10 weeks (22 vs. Buffalo in Week 12, 20 vs. Oakland in Week 13), and they have been racking up the sacks, turnovers and touchdowns. They get a ridiculously tasty matchup in Week 16 when the Cleveland Browns come to town, and they should be a top-three defense yet again. Johnny Manziel simply...
