Harris Fantasy Football Podcast

It's finally Week 1! It's the time when the NFL-prognosticating world is at its absolute most stubborn: by golly, we *know* what these teams are, we *know* exactly what these players are gonna be...and then next week that will all be changed. Anyway, ahead of that on today's show, we'll look back at the stories we predicted would matter most in August and see how they worked out, and we'll review our fantasy teams and find the players we selected most. And then it's time to tweak those rosters with a Week 1 waiver wire! Here we go! Guest: Brandon Funston of The Athletic.

As you draft your fantasy football squad this weekend, we want you to relax, have fun, and realize that all the touts who seem so *certain* about everything will be proven wrong in under a week. Draft players you like, the ones you think are good -- you will make mistakes because we all do, but then we'll spend the entire season reviewing tape and fixing them. For today, we'll talk about roster construction early in drafts by rating each player in the ADP top 36 from 1-to-10: how *risky* are they? Plus a heavily revised Joe Mixon profile from the August 29 Almanac Update. Phew! Guest: Jeff Bell from FootballGuys.com.

We've bloviated about the 2025 fantasy football season enough! It's time to turn the show over to you! On today's episode, we'll spend most of the time tackling your questions, some football, some non-football. Do we mind doubling up superstars on the same fantasy team? Are there early-round RBs that could tempt an inveterate Zero RB drafter? Can Kyle Williams overcome the curse of the Patriots? What are our current fave bands and Coen Brothers movies? Thank you for being the best audience around! Let's answer your questions! Guest: Denny Carter of Rotoworld.

NFL Cutdown Day happened on Tuesday, and...it was a little underwhelming? At least in terms of big names changing teams, Cutdown Day didn't really deliver. But we *did* get some pretty big roster news elsewhere, with players who did and didn't wind up going on PUP lists and IR lists. We'll handle that material, we'll read Brian Robinson's *new* Almanac profile, and then we'll have a look at the handicapping market for the NFL in 2025. What team win totals do we like and not like, who do we like to lead the major stat categories, are there player props we like, etc. Fun show! Guest: Chris Raybon from The Action Network.

Let's not be touts! We can't see the future, and predicting sports is hard. It's important to acknowledge the assumptions that get baked into our fantasy football draft ranks and our assessments of NFL players and offenses. So that's what we'll do today: we'll sift through our 2025 ranks and come up with five players we absolutely could wind up being wrong about. Plus: Terry McLaurin signs, Joe Mixon will miss a month, Amari Cooper is a Raiders again, and a great snarkbag. Guest: Ben Gretch of the Stealing Signals Newsletter.

By now, we've done a heck of a lot of drafts, mock and otherwise. So we have some personal anecdotes about the players *we* have tended to draft in the later rounds. That'll be today's discussion: where we think the soft spots are in the double-digit rounds of fantasy football drafts in 2025. We'll list QBs, RBs and WRs we love taking late. Also: fallout from the Brian Robinson trade, the Dolphins mess at running back, and what we're doing with the holdout guys. Guest: J.J. Zachariason of LateRound.com.

Don't Draft These Players! Okay, well, if you're in a very deep league, or you're thinking about dynasty, maybe you can draft these players. But the Super-Deep Sleeper list isn't typically meant for standard rosters, or 12-team leagues. Instead, our annual list of deep names is intended to read tea leaves: where might these younger players fit as the NFL season progresses? We'll do our best to come up with a fun list of kids you can track and potentially add for fantasy football in 2025.

Sometimes unsexy is good! On today's podcast, we'll discuss the merits of drafting *safe* players. If your draft strategies sometimes involve selecting risky players in early rounds -- and they should! -- it can make sense to find some high-floor players in the early/middle rounds who can present a smoother ride. We'll select one safe player per round, and discuss! Also: Anthony Richardson gets benched and embarrasses his *2024* ranks, Brian Robinson will no longer be a Commander, and we'll read a DeVonta Smith Almanac profile. Guest: Scott Pianowski of Yahoo!

Rookies usually get drafted too high for fantasy football. But there are absolutely exceptions to this rule. *A few* 2025 rookies will probably make a big splash and potential swing leagues. Can we identify them? Well, maybe *we* can't, but often Matt Waldman can. We'll dig into the big rookie names who are getting drafted to be fantasy starters, and the potential values among rookies who are going in later rounds. Plus we'll do a snarkbag, a great listener mixtape, and update Terry McLaurin and Brian Robinson. Guest: Matt Waldman of FootballGuys.com and the Rookie Scouting Portfolio.

We always say we'll draft any player...at the right price. But there are some players whose prices seem so "off" to us, there's no way we'll get them. That's how busts are born! On today's show, we'll count down the players we *won't* be drafting for fantasy football in 2025: QBs, RBs, WRs and TEs who simply won't wind up on any of our teams.

We'll plant some flags on some players' draft stock, where we think the dude is sufficiently good, and the round is sufficiently cheap. Who will wind up among the 10 flag players?

You like sleepers! Who doesn't like sleepers? On today's podcast, we'll tackle a particular kind of fantasy football sleeper for 2025: the Post-Hype variety. These guys have been drafted higher in the past (sometimes much higher) than they're going this summer, and we think they have a chance to live up to prior lofty expectations. Let's count down the Post-Hypes! In addition, we'll talk about a few ranks changes we've made based on beat reports, plus we'll play a hilarious listener mixtape.

Sometimes knowing which players *aren't* good is half the battle. On today's podcast, we'll count down our Film Room Zeroes for 2025: NFL players who simply didn't lay down very good film in '24. We'll draft *anyone* at the right price, but we're casting the side-eye at these particular players for fantasy football this year. We'll also read Davante Adams's Almanac profile and get invited to more zany stuff. Guest: Jim McCormick.

Just because drafting a player in fantasy football is stressful, doesn't mean we won't do it. But it's good to know what you're getting into! On today's show, the Prince of Darkness returns, and we count down our Acid Reflux All-Stars: players who might return great value or might tank our teams, but either way, we fear they'll give us the stress farts. Plus we'll talk about the latest NFL joint practices and some ranks adjustments we made overnight. Guest: Cousin Josh.

Sometimes you just wanna sit back and watch the players play. There are some insane athletes in the NFL, and some of them just have that little extra something that makes them glorious to behold. That's who we're honoring on today's podcast: the Film Room Heroes. They aren't necessarily perfect fantasy options, they might not even be draftable in some cases, but we've enjoyed watching them so much. Also: we'll read Chuba Hubbard's Almanac profile and review the news from the first round of NFL joint practices. Guest: Brandon Funston of The Athletic.

High-variance players are tough! On the one hand, you understand how they can be important starters on your fantasy football team. On the other hand, it's terrifying to trust them! That's the conundrum we have when we think about Swing Players: players who have so much upside and so much downside that they can swing the results of your league all by themselves. That's our list today: Swing Players for 2025. Plus we'll review the news about Keenan Allen and some injured backup running backs, and get more invites to things! Guest: Jeff Erickson of Rotowire.

Offensive lines matter! Of course they do, they're the bedrock of NFL offenses, and the skill players we draft in fantasy football rely on their o-lines to produce big numbers. Unfortunately, we're not always great a *predicting* which o-lines will be great or disastrous. Then again, we didn't play o-line in the NFL! But today's guest did, and he'll list a few lines he's excited about and a few that give him pause. In addition, we'll talk through the latest NFL news, and also refer to some of the highest and lowest Almanac grades we gave this year. Guest: Ross Tucker of the Ross Tucker Football Podcast.
