Harris Fantasy Football Podcast

Just two weeks in, our minds are blown! Every NFL season contains an outrageous number of surprises that shatter our mind palaces, and redefine what we think of myriad players and teams. On today's show, we'll count down the *biggest* surprises fantasy football (and the NFL in general) have presented us with. We'll also review the Bills' Thursday night victory over a surprisingly feisty Dolphins attack, and review the injury names you need to know before making your start/sit decisions before Week 3!

If you're putting together a fantasy football lineup in Week 3, we can almost guarantee: you're having wide receiver questions! That's because WR is deep and similar...there just isn't that much difference between WR20 and WR40. So one major focus of today's show is figuring out what to do with some key names you might be considering. Plus we'll preview the Dolphins/Bills Thursday night game, offer up some DFS lineups, and play a couple crazy mixtapes that speak to each other. Guests: Scott Pianowski of Yahoo!

The Justin Herbert Express continued barrelling over the NFL on Monday night, and we're loving it! On today's podcast, we'll discuss how *both* of the Monday night games looked, plus review the remainder of the Week 2 game film. Then it's time to turn the page, and start thinking about roster moves in advance of Week 3. The first step is talking about what waiver-wire adds we're considering, especially in light of the quarterback carnage so far. If you've got Joe Burrow, Jayden Daniels, Justin Fields, Brock Purdy or J.J. McCarthy, you'll wanna listen!

Another Sunday, lots more NFL games, and we get just a little bit smarter about which teams are good and bad, and which players can help our fantasy football teams. We'll dig into the games themselves and talk about what we think we saw! Are the Colts good on offense now? Are the Chiefs terrible? Is Kyren Williams's goal-line primacy slipping? Do we have to bench a bunch of rookie running backs? We'll discuss it all by going beyond the box score, directly to the game film! Guest: Matt Harmon of Yahoo!

Let's stage a little Overreaction Theater! We've only got one full week in the books, but our opinions on some players *have* actually changed quite a bit, and we'll count down the guys on whom we've wavered *most* after Week 1. Also: let's review what happened in the Packers' convincing victory over the Commanders, which includes discussing severe injuries to Austin Ekeler and Jayden Reed. And we'll also talk through the injuries that could wind up affecting your Week 2 fantasy football lineups!

Putting together Week 2 lineups for a fantasy football team is one of the season's most difficult challenges. How much should we react to Week 1? How much should we stay the course? There's no one-size-fits-all rule...which is why we talk about individual players. That's what we'll do on today's show! Plus we'll preview Commanders/Packers, talk through the many 49ers injuries affecting our lineups, and make some DFS picks on DraftKings!

Another national TV game, another insane comeback, another head-scratcher of a fantasy football result. We'll dig into the Monday night game, where the Vikings somehow overcame *all that* to win, and Caleb Williams didn't look particularly fixed. In addition, we'll review all the rest of the Week 1 game film that we didn't get to on Monday's show, plus we'll spin it forward and start thinking about Week 2 with a very important waiver wire!

Football is back! We have actual games to talk about! The endless speculation is over, and now the teams are telling us their plans by *executing* their plans, giving us tons of information that can help make our fantasy teams better.

You've done all you can do! The NFL season's gonna be what it's gonna be! But you're not made of stone, and neither are we. That's why for one final pre-Week-1 episode, we're going to channel in our inner-Cousin-Josh and worry a little bit. Let's talk about what's freaking us out about the forthcoming NFL season!

Let's put together some Week 1 fantasy lineups! In general, we don't want to deviate from season-long ranks too much, because we're constantly surprised about which matchups are difficult and which are easy.

As you draft your fantasy football squad this weekend, we want you to relax, have fun, and realize that all the touts who seem so *certain* about everything will be proven wrong in under a week. Draft players you like, the ones you think are good -- you will make mistakes because we all do, but then we'll spend the entire season reviewing tape and fixing them. For today, we'll talk about roster construction early in drafts by rating each player in the ADP top 36 from 1-to-10: how *risky* are they? Plus a heavily revised Joe Mixon profile from the August 29 Almanac Update. Phew!

We've bloviated about the 2025 fantasy football season enough! It's time to turn the show over to you! On today's episode, we'll spend most of the time tackling your questions, some football, some non-football. Do we mind doubling up superstars on the same fantasy team? Are there early-round RBs that could tempt an inveterate Zero RB drafter? Can Kyle Williams overcome the curse of the Patriots? What are our current fave bands and Coen Brothers movies? Thank you for being the best audience around! Let's answer your questions!

NFL Cutdown Day happened on Tuesday, and...it was a little underwhelming? At least in terms of big names changing teams, Cutdown Day didn't really deliver. But we *did* get some pretty big roster news elsewhere, with players who did and didn't wind up going on PUP lists and IR lists. We'll handle that material, we'll read Brian Robinson's *new* Almanac profile, and then we'll have a look at the handicapping market for the NFL in 2025. What team win totals do we like and not like, who do we like to lead the major stat categories, are there player props we like, etc. Fun show!

Let's not be touts! We can't see the future, and predicting sports is hard. It's important to acknowledge the assumptions that get baked into our fantasy football draft ranks and our assessments of NFL players and offenses. So that's what we'll do today: we'll sift through our 2025 ranks and come up with five players we absolutely could wind up being wrong about. Plus: Terry McLaurin signs, Joe Mixon will miss a month, Amari Cooper is a Raiders again, and a great snarkbag.

By now, we've done a heck of a lot of drafts, mock and otherwise. So we have some personal anecdotes about the players *we* have tended to draft in the later rounds. That'll be today's discussion: where we think the soft spots are in the double-digit rounds of fantasy football drafts in 2025. We'll list QBs, RBs and WRs we love taking late. Also: fallout from the Brian Robinson trade, the Dolphins mess at running back, and what we're doing with the holdout guys. Guest: J.J.

Don't Draft These Players! Okay, well, if you're in a very deep league, or you're thinking about dynasty, maybe you can draft these players. But the Super-Deep Sleeper list isn't typically meant for standard rosters, or 12-team leagues. Instead, our annual list of deep names is intended to read tea leaves: where might these younger players fit as the NFL season progresses? We'll do our best to come up with a fun list of kids you can track and potentially add for fantasy football in 2025. Also: updated ranks on Terry McLaurin, Brian Robinson, Jacory Croskey-Merritt, Najee Harris & more!
