Danny Heifetz, Danny Kelly, and Craig Horlbeck help you through the 2025 fantasy football season with who to draft, who to avoid, and how to win a championship—or at least how to not get last place. We hit everything you need to win: Which old guys aren’t washed yet? Which coaches will ruin your life? Which players would be drafted higher if they had cooler names? Why do I keep doing this to myself every year?We post episodes every week throughout the spring and summer and even MORE during the NFL season with four shows a week: Sunday recaps, Monday waiver wire targets, Wednesday power rankings, and Friday weekly previews.
