Description

In Week 5's episode of the Apex Fantasy Football podcast, the crew uses the expected points metric to take stock of the committee backfields for the Ravens (1:16 ), Broncos (5:19 ), Lions (7:16 ), Colts (12:47 ), Rams (17:17 ), Buccaneers (24:22 ), 49ers (29:45 ) and Redskins (33:44 ).

They do the same for the Cardinals pass catchers (36:34 ) while giving a pep talk to Marquise Brown and D.J. Moore owners (41:48 ), ponder how to treat Odell Beckham going forward (46:13 ), and marvel over Justin Jefferson (50:53 ).

On the waiver wire, the gang tells you how to navigate and prioritize the Browns backfield after Nick Chubb's injury (53:46 ) and hypes up Justin Jackson as a post-Ekeler injury priority (54:50 ). For those needing help at wide receiver, Darnell Mooney (58:30 ) and Tim Patrick, Isaiah Ford, and Zach Pascal are also analyzed (1:00:25 ). They end the waiver wire section by assessing Week 4 breakouts Robert Tonyan (1:02:55 ) and Damien Harris (1:04:58 ).

Finally, the Apex crew discusses how to handle fantasy draft busts - whether to sell high, simply bench them, or cut entirely for A.J. Green (1:09:00 ), Brandin Cooks (1:11:19 ), Kerryon Johnson (1:14:07 ), Todd Gurley (1:16:00 ), and Kenyan Drake (1:18:41 ).
