Debunking the “Coached-Up in the NFL” Myth and League Rules That Effectively Limit Tanking: Matt Waldman’s RSP Film and Theory with Adam Harstad

Footballguys staff writer Adam Harstad joins RSP Film and Data as Matt Waldman’s cohost for the 2023 football season to discuss practices that will make you a better fantasy GM and NFL fan. There are a lot of excellent writers and analysts in the fantasy industry. There are few that I hold in as high a regard as Adam. He’s a forthright human being with a tremendous intellect whose approach to analysis in this space differs from most. He’s also an excellent fantasy GM in re-draft and dynasty formats. Unlike Dwain McFarland, whose work delves into the statistical process, Adam spends a lot of time examining results and dealing with broad themes of decision-making that help us become better fantasy players and fantasy analysts. Topics Kyle Shanahan's press conference and player development. Why the NFL and college programs don't coach techniques the way the public expects. Five methods that your league can use to curb tanking by identifying actual badness and not manipulated badness. And of course, if you want to know about the rookies from this draft class, you will find the most in-depth analysis of offensive skill players available (QB, RB, WR, and TE), with the 2024 Rookie Scouting Portfolio for $21.95--currently available for $19.95 via early-bird discount that runs through December 21, 2023.   Matt’s new RSP Dynasty Rankings and Two-Year Projections Package is available for $24.95 If you’re a fantasy GM interested in purchasing past publications for $9.95 each, the 2012-2023 RSPs also have a Post-Draft Add-on that’s included at no additional charge.   Best yet, proceeds from sales are set aside for a year-end donation to Darkness to Light to combat the sexual abuse of children.

Building Dynasty Rosters with Dart Throws, Trevor Lawrence, Turnovers, and Separating Signal from Noise with QB Data: Matt Waldman’s RSP Film and Theory with Adam Harstad

Unlike Dwain McFarland, whose work delves into the statistical process, Adam spends a lot of time examining results and dealing with broad themes of decision-making that help us become better fantasy players and fantasy analysts. Topics Why "dart throws" can build a good dynasty roster. The type of "dart throws" Adam uses at wide receiver. Matt's example of a wide receiver depth chart benefiting from dart throws. A contextual examination of Trevor Lawrence's 2023 turnovers. Why QB turnovers are noisy data. The volume of positive plays is more valuable for QB assessment. Good quarterbacks play through mistakes just like other good performers. The unintentional comedy of Matt wearing hats all day.

Tony Pollard’s Injuries Are Worse Than You Realize, Trevor Lawrence, C.J. Stroud, and Contextualizing QB Data: Going Deep with Brandon Angelo and Matt Waldman

On this week’s episode of the Going Deep podcast, Brandon Angelo and Matt Waldman discuss Tony Pollard's struggles, a recently cut RB of value, Trevor Lawrence, C.J. Stroud, and the need to contextualize quarterback data.   Brandon Angelo works in sports and human performance. A former 4-time All-American and Power Five conference champion sprinter, Brandon is a mentor, instructor, and guide for athletes. He’s also the proprietor of Angelo Analysis, a subscription-based fantasy website devoted to player evaluation. After doing a few podcasts together during the past 12 months, Brandon and I decided we would enjoy having a recurring show to discuss aspects of player evaluation and NFL Draft topics that you don’t often hear about in mainstream media. This pre-draft pod about the NFL’s disparities with 40 times and several more ’23 draft and free agent topics is a must-listen. Going Deep will feature podcasts twice a month. You can either watch/listen on YouTube, listen from the player at the bottom of the page, or download the podcast at most outlets, including Google, Spotify, and iTunes. This Week’s Topics Trevor Lawrence's data paints a worse picture than the film and the film don't lie. C.J. Stroud is off to a strong start, but placing him in the elite category of passers is premature. Quarterback data often lacks necessary contextualization and why that impacts scouting and media. Tony Pollard's decline in production has to do with injury. Brandon explains the difference between being ready to play and being healthy enough to play their best. Why players end up in situations where they are ready to play but often never return to their top form. A recently cut RB who has starter value and is at least worth monitoring. And of course, if you want to know about the rookies from this draft class, you will find the most in-depth analysis of offensive skill players available (QB, RB, WR, and TE), with the 2023 Rookie Scouting Portfolio for $21.95.  Matt’s new RSP Dynasty Rankings and Two-Year Projections Package is available for $24.95 If you’re a fantasy owner and interested in purchasing past publications for $9.95 each, the 2012-2022 RSPs also have a Post-Draft Add-on that’s included at no additional charge.   If you’re a fantasy owner and interested in purchasing past publications for $9.95 each, the 2012-2022 RSPs also have a Post-Draft Add-on that’s included at no additional charge.   Best yet, proceeds from sales are set aside for a year-end donation to Darkness to Light to combat the sexual abuse of children.

Topics Base rates for QB development. Bryce Young's historically low base rate. Outliers who developed their way out of Young's predicament. The changes in dynasty valuation of Young and C.J. Stroud. The black box of why some high first-round quarterbacks develop and others don't. Why Josh McDaniels' scheme is less than half the equation for building a good team. Culture building.
