Fantasy Football Today

We (hopefully) entertain you with a brief rap and some random trivia before getting into the consensus rankings. On Monday, we revealed players 1-12. Today it's players 13-24 beginning with Stefon Diggs (6:00). Does he have WR1 upside? Next is Aaron Jones (8:15) and his former teammate Davante Adams (12:30). We talk a lot about Adams and how to evaluate him on a new team ... Does Mark Andrews (21:10) deserve to be a Top 16 pick? What is the upside and what is the downside for D'Andre Swift (26:55)? How concerned are we about Leonard Fournette's weight gain (30;50)? ... CeeDee Lamb vs. Deebo Samuel (34:50). Mike Evans vs. Keenan Allen vs. Tyreek Hill (40:15). And which RB claimed the 24th spot in our consensus rankings (42:40)? ...

What concerns do we have for these wide receivers? Also, Dave and Dan call out a bust on each other's lists as we talk about Amon-Ra St. Brown (13:10) and Devin Singletary (19:05). Is Singletary really a bust if he's going 80th overall? ... News and notes (29:30) and right back into the busts! Joe Burrow (31:31) is great but he should not be the fourth QB off the board. At running back (33:40) we discuss Javonte Williams and Cam Akers as Akers might be going way too early. And Dan highlights three RBs who are being drafted in Round 4 (38:50) with some serious concerns about their roles ... WR busts (50:30) including Michael Thomas and Brandon Aiyuk and we finish with Pat Freiermuth (53:15) who is a bust for Dan but a breakout for Dave ...

We've got a couple of quick stats on James Cook and Dak Prescott before we get into the meat of the show. Dave and Heath give you their favorite breakouts for 2022 (3:25)! Dave loves Gabriel Davis and Heath loves Jalen Hurts. Are we taking Hurts over Kyler Murray? Also, Dave and Heath call out a breakout candidate on each other's lists (9:30) as we discuss Rashod Bateman and Pat Freiermuth ... Courtland Sutton is a shared breakout candidate, so should he easily be the first Broncos wide receiver drafted (18:00)? We've also got some news and notes (23:30) and a long discussion on breakout running backs (28:50) including Breece Hall, J.K. Dobbins, Travis Etienne, Tony Pollard and A.J. Dillon (38:30) ... Breakout wide receivers (44:00) include Michael Pittman and Tim Patrick. How much upside does Pittman really have and why do we think Fantasy managers won't quite be on board with him as a potential star? ...
