You can find league winners here, so let's take you through this year's list of WRs and see who we prefer.

Tyler Lockett has been better than D.K. Metcalf for two straight seasons (17:25), so why are we drafting Metcalf so much earlier?

Toughest Players to Project (07/05 Fantasy Football Podcast)

Fantasy Football Today is available for free on the Audacy app as well as Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Stitcher and wherever else you listen to podcasts. Good luck coming up with projections for Kadarius Toney, Khalil Herbert and Anthony Richardson. Those are three of the players we'll talk about today, but let's start with Deshaun Watson (5:00). Can he bounce back to his superstar form? Will he throw enough? And we've got some news and notes (14:25) on the Vikings backfield and receiving corps ... Anthony Richardson is tough to project (20:10) as we try to compare him to Jalen Hurts coming out of college. We also talk about why Rhamondre Stevenson (26:00), J.K. Dobbins (34:05) and Khalil Herbert (38:30) are difficult to project. How will the Ravens spread the ball around? Is Herbert good enough in pass protection to stay on the field? ... At wide receiver, Heath has trouble projecting Kadarius Toney (44:15), Calvin Ridley (47:30) and Rashod Bateman (51:00). Of course Kyle Pitts (54:05) is a difficult projection, but so is Chig Okonkwo (57:45) ...
