Draft Sharks Fantasy Football Podcast

Just like last week, we're missing a number of starting RBs. Bears WR Allen Robinson (concussion) joins Michael Thomas in leaving targets behind. Those situations will factor into our top plays this week. And some developing weather might change our lineups come Sunday. It's a more challenging slate than we found last week, when big points came from everywhere.Here's the rundown:QB ... 2:41RB ... 8:38WR ... 14:53TE ... 20:00Flex ... 23:40Defense ... ​25:04Check out Kevin's favorite picks for cash games and Tyler's top plays for GPPs.

Week 8 finds Michael Thomas, Joe Mixon and Aaron Jones likely still out, plus a number of other situations to monitor. We don't know yet who will line up in either backfield with the 49ers visit the Seahawks. We know that concussions will probably take Allen Robinson and Andy Dalton out of their lineups, impacting the outlooks of several teammates apiece. Throw in some weather questions, and it's a news-packed NFL slate.Here's the rundown:Atlanta Falcons at Carolina Panthers ... 00:32Indianapolis Colts at Detroit Lions ... 5:57New England Patriots at Buffalo Bills ... 13:08Las Vegas Raiders at Cleveland Browns ... 19:09Minnesota Vikings at Green Bay Packers ... 27:30Pittsburgh Steelers at Baltimore Ravens ... 33:22Tennessee Titans at Cincinnati Bengals ... 38:57New York Jets at Kansas City Chiefs ... 44:41Los Angeles Rams at Miami Dolphins ... 46:25Los Angeles Chargers at Denver Broncos ... 49:46New Orleans Saints at Chicago Bears ... 54:58San Francisco 49ers at Seattle Seahawks ... 58:01Dallas Cowboys at Phi

​​We already knew Raheem Mostert wouldn't play in Week 7. But then Joe MIxon got ruled out. And Aaron Jones went down in practice. And Austin Hooper came down with appendicitis. And Emmanuel Sanders landed on the COVID list. It was a goofy week, with ramifications for Week 8 and beyond. Here's who you should be targeting on waivers for Week 8.Check out our Free Agent Focus, updated Rest of the Way rankings and Free Agent Finder to help your waiver decisions.​  DRAFT SHARKS - YOUR UNFAIR ADVANTAGEAward-winning fantasy football rankings, projections and draft tools.

The late schedule change for this Sunday has left a 1-game difference between the main slates on FanDuel and DraftKings. But we're dealing with the same abundance of options across positions. Let's pick out some favorites at QB and see how we can fit in our favorite RB targets into the lineup.

An already packed main slate added the Buccaneers and Raiders when the league shifted games because of Las Vegas' COVID situation. But it also kept Seahawks​​-Cardinals despite that game moving to Sunday night. That sets up perhaps the most interesting week of DFS lineup building so far this season.

​COVID has made Buccaneers-Raiders and Seahawks-Cardinals switch spots even since we recorded this podcast. That's not the only aspect we'll need to watch through the week, with injuries to some key pass-catchers as well as a top-10 RB. And if you're in need of a QB or TE to stream this week (and perhaps beyond), you might want to listen all the way through this full preview of NFL Week 7.Here's the rundown (with Thursday night's Eagles-Giants preview cut out):Green Bay Packers at Houston Texans ... 00:32Cleveland Browns at Cincinnati Bengals ... 4:03Carolina Panthers at New Orleans Saints ... 10:43Pittsburgh Steelers at Tennessee Titans ... 15:43Buffalo Bills at New York Jets ... 22:52Detroit Lions at Atlanta Falcons ... 27:05Dallas Cowboys at Washington Football Team ... 31:25Seattle Seahawks at Arizona Cardinals ... 37:18Kansas City Chiefs at Denver Broncos ... 41:08San Francisco 49ers at New England Patriots ... 45:45Jacksonville Jaguars at Los Angeles Chargers ... 52:18Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Las Vegas R

David Montgomery and Ronald Jones highlight a slate of lead backs at low-risk prices ... or are they traps on this Week 6 DFS slate? QB presents a variety of affordable options with upside matchups, while WR carries intrigue at every level.

We don't have the usual expensive, top-shelf studs available at RB this week, so there's room to spend that money elsewhere. We've got high-dollar considerations at WR and TE ... plus a potential stud RB who might less of a sure thing than we're used to at the position. QB decisions start in the $5K range this week, and we've got a minimum-priced pass-catcher who either broke through in Week 5 or is about to fool us big time.Here's the rundown:QB ... 3:18RB ... 9:14WR ... 15:42TE ... 20:36Flex ... 23:25Defense ... ​24:23Check out all of Jared's cash-game picks and Tyler's tourney favorites.

We'll have to watch the Falcons-Vikings game to make sure it happens this week. But there seem to be plenty of QBs worth playing ahead of Matt Ryan even his game does forward. We also have huge Week 5 performances from Chase Claypool and Travis Fulgham to assess, and the question of what to do with Clyde Edwards-Helaire, Marvin Jones and the Cowboys pass-catchers, after Dak Prescott's injury.Here's the rundown:Chicago Bears at Carolina Panthers ... 00:54Detroit Lions at Jacksonville Jaguars ... 3:13Cleveland Browns at Pittsburgh Steelers ... 9:13Denver Broncos at New England Patriots ... 17:54Houston Texans at Tennessee Titans ... 21:01Washington Football Team at New York Giants ... 23:32Cincinnati Bengals at Indianapolis Colts ... 30:33Atlanta Falcons at Minnesota Vikings ... 34:18Baltimore Ravens at Philadelphia Eagles ... 39:58New York Jets at Miami Dolphins ... 48:11Green Bay Packers at Tampa Bay Buccaneers ... 52:59Los Angeles Rams at San Francisco 49ers ... 58:29Kansas City Chiefs at Buffalo Bills ... 1

​The expensive QBs and high-end TEs are looking good this week. We're also focused on a small group of RBs. Where can we look for WR upside to round out the lineups?Here's the rundown:QB ... 2:48RB ... 8:29WR ... 13:54TE ... 17:47Flex ... 21:32Defense ... 22:26Check out Kevin's favorite picks for cash games and Tyler's top plays for GPPs.

​Kyle Allen's promotion in Washington this week gives us a wider-than-normal QB spectrum. How does that position fit with the rest of our lineup building? Getting Dalvin Cook, Derrick Henry, Alvin Kamara and Aaron Jones off the main slate cuts the number of high-priced options at RB, which might leave room elsewhere. You don't necessarily need to look up top at WR to find target certainty. And the TE slate for Week 5 just might be the strongest it has been in a while.Here's the rundown:QB ... 3:38RB ... 10:57WR ... 15:55TE ... 22:28Flex ... 28:08Defense ... 30:20Check out all of Jared's cash-game picks and Tyler's tourney favorites.

​The Titans' COVID situation sure looks like it's threatening this week's game against the Bills. We've got our 1st scheduled bye week, with the Lions and Packers down. We've got a potential breakthrough spot for Giants QB Daniel Jones -- or do we? -- against the 1st bad pass defense he will have faced this season. We've got disagreement on where to slot Eagles TE Zach Ertz for the week. And we're trying to figure out which streaming-level QBs should make your game-day roster.Check our full Week 5 rankings, and stay up to date on injuries and news via Shark Bites.​  DRAFT SHARKS - YOUR UNFAIR ADVANTAGEAward-winning fantasy football rankings, projections and draft tools.

​Had you ever heard of D'Ernest Johnson before he ran for 95 yards on the Cowboys last Sunday? Either way, he's certainly more prominent now than he was a week ago. But that doesn't mean Adam and Matt agree on how to treat him with waiver bids this week. Johnson isn't even the 1st RB we'll discuss, though, and there's a sizable list of wideouts to sort.Here's the rundown:FFPC weekend ... 3:26RBs ... 7:22WRs ... 23:37TE/QB ... 39:21Check out our Week 5 Free Agent Focus, as well as our rankings for Week 5 and the rest of the season.​  DRAFT SHARKS - YOUR UNFAIR ADVANTAGEAward-winning fantasy football rankings, projections and draft tools.

​Has Russell Wilson finally priced himself out of cash-game use? And is it time to pay down at QB in general? The RB talk starts at Alvin Kamara this week, but there are a wealth of options beyond that for the RB slots and flex use. WR presents a spectrum of options, including a couple of attractive targets in the low $5K salary​ range. And even TE presents enough options for varied approaches here.Here's the rundown:QB ... 2:38RB ... 8:15WR ... 12:43TE ... 18:04Flex ... 21:10Defense ... 22:47Check out Kevin's favorite picks for cash games and Tyler's top plays for GPPs.

Russell Wilson, Josh Allen and other top-dollar QBs have driven a lot of high-scoring lineups to date. But are there some cheaper options to draw our attention away as the salaries keep climbing on those passers? Alvin Kamara draws primary focus at RB, but how do we build around him? And will he be so highly owned that he's a GPP fade? WR presents plenty of options, including a pair of favorites in the mid-$4,000 range that we're comfy using across contest formats.Here's the full rundown:QB ... 3:15RB ... 10:24WR ... 18:22TE ... 26:27Flex ... 31:37Defense ... 34:24Check out all of Jared's cash-game picks and Tyler's tourney favorites.

No Steelers-Titans this week, but we still have 15 other games playing out. There are a lot of teams projected for a lot of points, which means a loaded week at QB. We have some sorting to do at WR and TE and some tough matchups to beware of.Here's the rundown:Denver Broncos at New York Jets ... 1:12Indianapolis Colts at Chicago Bears ... 4:53Los Angeles Chargers at Tampa Bay Buccaneers ... 7:44Cleveland Browns at Dallas Cowboys ... 12:34Baltimore Ravens at Washington Football Team ... 16:40Arizona Cardinals at Carolina Panthers ... 22:22New Orleans Saints at Detroit Lions ... 26:59Jacksonville Jaguars at Cincinnati Bengals ... 33:28Minnesota Vikings at Houston Texans ... 42:00Seattle Seahawks at Miami Dolphins ... 46:37New York Giants at Los Angeles Rams ... 51:07Buffalo Bills at Las Vegas Raiders ... 54:07New England Patriots at Kansas City Chiefs ... 58:05Philadelphia Eagles at San Francisco 49ers ... 1:01:22Atlanta Falcons at Green Bay Packers ... 1:05:09Check our full Week 4 rankings, and stay up to date

​There's no Mike Davis or Giants RB to control your league's waiver bidding this week, so the options are a bit more subtle. But we did have a flashy performance by the backup to one early-round RB plus a couple of young WRs who found the end zone twice apiece. This won't be the week to blow your budget on waivers. But there are options for immediate use ... or long-term upside.​Check out our Week 4 Free Agent Focus, as well as our rankings for Week 4 and the rest of the season.  DRAFT SHARKS - YOUR UNFAIR ADVANTAGEAward-winning fantasy football rankings, projections and draft tools.

​It's Cowboys-Seahawks week. So Dak Prescott, Russell Wilson and all of their WRs will factor heavily into what we're doing on FanDuel this week. But the value options at RB make for some interesting decisions that could separate your lineup. We're looking at a few proven fantasy studs with single-digit ownership projections in particular.

​​Cowboys-Seahawks looks like the center of the Week 3 main slate, and we'll be talking about plenty of DFS lineup options from that contest. But we're also looking at several other high-priced QBs -- along with some at lower costs, if you're seeking a different build. We've got groups of underpriced RBs to go with them and some low-salary WR targets.Here's the rundown:QB ... 3:49RB ... 11:27WR ... 19:46TE ... 25:37Flex ... 30:29Defense ... 32:39Check out all of Jared's cash-game picks and Tyler's tourney favorites.
