Week 5 Waiver Wire Targets & FAAB Bids (Episode 34) | BS Fancy FootballBradley Stalder breaks down Week 5 waiver-wire priorities for default 12-team leagues (with notes for 10- and 14-team formats), emphasizing FAAB bids as a percentage of original budget and the impact of bye weeks (Kansas City and Carolina). He prioritizes RB Emmanuel Wilson for immediate volume (with caution about Seattle backfield changes) and RB Will Shipley as a Saquon Barkley contingency add, plus stashes like Ollie Gordon, Keaton Mitchell, Tyler Allgeier, Zach Charbonnet, Joe Mixon, and Kendre Miller. At WR, Keon Coleman is the top add tied to DJ Moore’s shoulder status, while Xavier Worthy is the preferred bye-week stash; other WR options include Khalil Shakir, Trey Harris, Dante Myers, Malik Washington, and a deep flyer on Tyreek Hill. He also suggests QB streamers C.J. Stroud and Aaron Rodgers, TE streamers T.J. Hockenson, Mike Gesicki, and Brenton Strange (with fallback options), and cheap defenses to target.00:00 Week 5 Waiver Overview00:56 Budget and League Context01:33 Top RB Add Emmanuel Wilson04:09 Will Shipley Priority Claim06:13 RB Stashes and Cheap Bets10:06 Keon Coleman Breakout Watch12:22 Xavier Worthy Bye Stash14:14 Other WR Targets and Deep Adds18:03 QB Streamers for Week 519:04 Tight Ends and Team Defenses20:35 Wrap Up and Final TipsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bradley-stalder-fantasy-football--7113510/support.

Week 4 Fantasy Football Rankings: Nico Collins WR2, Bucky Irving RB10 + Fades for Pickens & Loveland | Stalder’s Stands Ep. 33Bradley Stalder hosts Episode 33 of BS Fantasy Football’s Week 4 “Stalder’s Stands,” explaining how to use his rankings versus consensus and why the size of disagreements matters for lineup decisions. He highlights major Week 4 calls including Nico Collins as WR2 if cleared from a hamstring injury, Bucky Irving as RB10 based on sustained touches and receiving usage, and Rashee Rice as WR10 driven by a rising target role. Stalder is lower than consensus on George Pickens (WR24) and Drake London (WR13) while still viewing both as starts in many formats. He ranks Ashton Jeanty RB16 due to projected team volume, Kenneth Walker RB7 despite consensus RB3, benches Colston Loveland (TE33), and lowers Dalton Schultz (TE22) if Collins plays. He also discusses AJ Barner, Jacory Croskey-Merritt, and Malik Willis as a Superflex QB2 option.00:00 Week Four Kickoff02:10 How To Use Stands03:48 Proof From Past Weeks06:16 Nico Collins Smash Spot09:49 Bucky Irving Bounce Back15:00 Rashee Rice Volume Bet18:31 George Pickens Pump Brakes22:55 Drake London Reality Check25:44 Ashton Jeanty Volume Concern26:09 Jeanty Volume Debate27:22 Chiefs Matchup Context28:13 Start Sit Jeanty28:41 Walker Ranking Reality30:36 Raiders Run Defense32:06 Walker Volume Warning32:51 Loveland Hard Fade34:18 Jets Scheme Concerns35:33 Bench Loveland Plan36:34 Schultz With Nico Back38:46 Barner Deep League Dart41:16 Crosskey Merritt Fade43:38 Willis Superflex Play45:18 Vikings Pressure Test47:50 Wrap Up And Next StepsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bradley-stalder-fantasy-football--7113510/support.
