Fantasy Philosophies with Jake Ciely (04/19 Fantasy Football Podcast)

We are joined by Jake Ciely of The Athletic to talk some strategy and philosophy. Does anything change with a 17-game season (2:15)? Do RBs become more or less valuable with 17 games? Speaking of RBs, do you prefer to handcuff your own RB or a RB that is not on your Fantasy team (6:08)? ... TE philosophies will be very interesting this season (10:50). Jake is not quite as bullish on the Top 3 as the CBS guys are. But how bullish will we be on the 2021 rookie WRs (18:30)? Also what is our backup QB philosophy (24:45) and which position delivers the most breakouts in Rounds 10 or later? ... We've got a new segment called "Phrases That People Screw Up" (32:55)! Try not to say "I could care less." Also: News and notes (38:10) including some Steelers RB talk as they look poised to select a RB in Round 1 ... Your emails at fantasyfootball@cbsi.com
