We start the show with a discussion about the preseason. How much does it matter? What are we looking for that could actually make an impact on our rankings? Then Heath and tell you who is on the rise! Heath has Christian McCaffrey #1 ahead of Jonathan Taylor in PPR (6:15)! We talk about how many games we need from CMC for this to be justified. Dave, meanwhile, is moving Michael Thomas up (12:30)! Is he a Top 12 WR now? ... Big news (15:35) as Kareem Hunt has requested a trade and Matthew Stafford had an encouraging practice. Then we give more rankings risers (22:55) like Breece Hall, Dameon Pierce and Chase Edmonds. We also touch on trendy players Isiah Pacheco and Romeo Doubs (32:35) ... Who is falling in the rankings (39:45)? Dave tells you why he's lower on Jahan Dotson. And then we go through more camp standouts (45:30) like Saquon Barkley, Elijah Mitchell and James Proche. Plus Adam tries to figure out if there is a bigger gap between RB12 and RB18 or WR12 and WR18 (51:00) ... Your emails at fantasyfootball@cbsi.com
