Harris Fantasy Football Podcast

The NFL Draft is finally here! We'll have plenty of time to react to the new NFL landing spots and what they mean for your fantasy football squad...today we're looking back a year, and discussing the genius picks and huge mistakes NFL teams -- and fantasy owners -- made with the Class of 2023. We will re-rank the running backs, wideouts, quarterbacks and tight ends who became new favorites this time last year, and speculate about their prospects going forward. Guest: Andy Behrens of Yahoo!

This year's NFL Draft may not contain any obviously elite running backs, but it's got some good players at the position...and we all know that RB is the most *important* position in fantasy football. So we'll discuss the talents and shortcomings of the leading candidates to be drafted highest in the 2024 NFL Draft, so we can be familiar with them before we get blinded by landing spot. Also: we'll do a one-man tight end preview, and discuss why NFL teams appear to be so high on Brock Bowers.

Caleb Williams will certainly be the Bears' pick at #1 in the upcoming NFL Draft, but after that? It's anyone's guess! A whole lot of teams are in the market for a franchise quarterback, which means trades and controversial selections are almost certainly ahead. For fantasy football: which of the rising rookies could be usable right away? Which guys need to sit for a year? There's no absolute consensus on *any* of these players, but we can talk about the upside and downside of each guy and get you ready for the both the NFL Draft *and* your dynasty fantasy draft. Plus we'll look back on Justin Fields's 2023 performance on tape.

Does the upcoming NFL draft really feature a historic wide receiver class? Where should the best WRs among the 2024 rookies be drafted in your dynasty league? We will crack open film on the likes of Marvin Harrison, Malik Nabers, Rome Odunze and dozens more WRs to discuss what they do well, and what they do not-so-well. Who are the sleepers in this draft? Who are some potential busts? Also: let's discuss Stefon Diggs's shocking trade to the Houston Texans!

Wow, did the NFL have a great week or what? The opening of the 2024 NFL season saw *dozens* of skill-position players change teams and set up completely new dynamics for fantasy football in 2024. We will run through *all* the major (and some minor) moves that happened this week, discuss what we think of new landing spots for quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers and tight ends, and begin figuring out how we'll assess fantasy football ranks in 2024.

We are back, and so is the NFL! We're about to get a whole bunch of exciting skill-position moves in NFL free agency, and that's going to mean a big change in the fantasy football landscape. Could Saquon Barkley, Derrick Henry, Josh Jacobs and Austin Ekeler all change teams in the same offseason? You betcha! We will get ready for next week's free-agent frenzy with a preview of the players who'll be signing new contracts soon! Wow! Big show!

We've got a Super Bowl preview for you, but first: let's dig into the game tape of one of 2023's most surprising players: Rams RB Kyren Williams. The guy only played 12 games and still won a *ton* of fantasy leagues -- is he more special than we originally believed, or was this *all* about scheme? We'll dive into the tape! And then let's discuss how we think Chiefs/49ers will go, our reaction to the point spreads and totals...and then give you a few prop bets that have a good chance of hitting. Be safe on Sunday!

And then there were two! The Chiefs and 49ers will square off on Sunday -- and we might have a wee bit of fatigue with these specific teams, but that doesn't mean they're unworthy. Harris and Jim McCormick will preview the game, discuss which players and units hold the keys to victory, and make picks both against the spread and among a myriad of available props.   SPONSOR - www.DraftKings.com code HARRISTUBE to make one $5 bet to get $200 in bonus bets instantly put into your account

In this week's bonus episode, Harris and Jim McCormick discuss initial thoughts on another Niners/Chiefs Super Bowl while looking back at the blown performances from the conference championship games. Did John Harbaugh lose his mind? Is it *ever* fair to question an "analytics-based" football decision?   SPONSOR - www.DraftKings.com code HARRISTUBE to get ready for the Super Bowl...one $5 bet gets you $200 in bonus bets instantly

Our tradition for the rest week before the Super Bowl is: We turn the show over to you! This is our LISTENER REQUEST EPISODE, where you pick the topics, and we chat about 'em. Today we'll have thoughts on the future roster decisions of the Bills and Chiefs and Chargers, we'll discuss some NFL coaching changes, we'll talk about our podcast equipment and our favorite childhood football memories, what we're reading, the yachts we live on and much more. Plus we'll review the rookie tape of Chargers WR Quentin Johnston.

What young players are likeliest to graduate to a new level of production in 2024? We've got some names for you -- guys who might see NFL depth charts open up for them, and/or guys whose talent we simply believe is good enough to reach higher levels next year. Also: it's finally time to do a film breakdown on Bills WR Stefon Diggs and talk about what the heck happened to him after Week 6 of the '23 season. We watch the film so you don't have to!

We're down to four teams. Let's talk about 'em! The Chiefs visit the Ravens and the Lions visit the 49ers in the NFL's version of the Final Four, and we'll spend this episode discussing how these teams looked last weekend, how we expect them to attack each other Sunday, which injured players we're most concerned about, and much more. Then we'll make our Super Bowl participant picks, plus give some suggestions for prop bets this weekend.

We'll preview each of the weekend's four games, talk strategy and COMEUPPANCE, and then pick our favorite winning sides and prop bets.

On our show, we firmly believe that the salary cap is crap. It's self-imposed austerity for billionaires so they can hoard more of their sweet sweet money. But that doesn't change the facts: this winter, NFL teams *will* cut expensive players and call them "salary-cap casualties." The truth, of course, is that those teams simply won't want to pay the actual dollars owed to these high-priced players. On today's podcast we'll discuss some of the likeliest skill-position players who have no guaranteed money left on their contracts, and who therefore could be on new teams in 2024. Plus we'll weigh in on the analytics debates raging on NFL social media over the past few weeks. Guest: Andy Behrens of Yahoo!

Let's preview the six Wild Card games coming up this weekend. Are the Rams too red-hot for the Lions to handle? Can the Texans undo the shellacking Cleveland put on them in December? Will the Dolphins freeze in K.C.? Are the Eagles simply toast? We'll discuss all the games, make picks against the spread, and also review the big NFL coach firings over the past week.   SPONSOR: www.DraftKings.com promo code HARRISTUBE to make one $5 bet and get $200 in bonus bets instantly

What did we just see? That's the question when you exit a fantasy football season. Do we believe in players who surprised us in 2023? Are we worried about the supposedly great players who let us down? For today's podcast, we'll begin the process of metabolizing the '23 season by listing some NFL players whose stats might be misleading when we start projecting them into 2024. That might mean they ended the year red-hot or ice-cold. It might mean they seem to have produced more or fewer touchdowns than we expected. Or it might mean they're falling off a cliff! Also: the Patriots fired Bill Belichick, and we'll reflect on his time in New England.

Let's preview the regular-season finale of the 2023 NFL season with some Week 18 nonsense. Are there some crummy games ahead of us this weekend? Surely! But there are also some meaningful ones, and Harris and Jim McCormick will give their impressions of what might happen, and find some point-spread values to boot!   GoFundMe for Emil Kadlec - https://www.gofundme.com/f/emil-kadlecs-family Sponsor - www.DraftKings.com promo code HARRISTUBE Watch this podcast in video form at our YouTube channel - www.YouTube.com/HarrisFootball

The fantasy football championships are done! Our teams have reached the mountaintop (or fallen just short). Let's revel in the glory...or sulk in the tragedy. We'll discuss the heroes and zeroes from Week 17, before moving on to our topic of the day: guys we love! Instead of projecting too far ahead and deciding we're positive what certain players will do in 2024, we'll take time today to simply appreciate some (mostly young) NFL players and the tape they were able to lay down this past NFL season.
