2024 Fantasy Football Thread
Welcome to the 2024 fantasy season, where I'm officially addicted to best ball. I've been drafting since the end of Jan
What do we think of Jordy Love's chances to play this week? Green Bay is notoriously safe with their injured players but he seems very close to returning.

Does it ever work out when teams bring back QBs so quickly?
I'm not sure if they need him against TEN.
I'd sit him, and then if MIN wins this week, I'd be more inclined to play him against them in week 4.
lol
Hey guys just wanted to see what your opinions are regarding the popular fantasy football shows that are out on YouTube or podcasts. I listen to quite a few of them, but to be more time efficient, I'd want to narrow it down. I'd like a balance between good information, but also entertainment, as some of these guys can be way too dorky and hard to listen to. I'll list a few that I follow and give some brief points.
Fantasy Football Happy Hour with Matthew Berry - seems like a pretty solid and well
It's good that you are listening to several sources. Many of these podcasts and YouTube shows have a cult like following. This leads to a lot of echo chamber talk. You hear a lot of group think. This information is then parroted by it's listeners.
If you aren't already, I'd suggest listening to these podcasts on 1.5 speed or even 2.0 speed if you can handle it for time constraint reasons.
I agree with you about some/most of these guys being dorky and hard to listen too. It's like they all think they need to be funny. Also, I don't care about what they did over the weekend just get to the fantasy talk. Some of these shows you have to fast forward ten minutes.
1) Mathew Berry is fine but I can't deal with Jays accent.
2) Fantasy Footballers falls into the entertainment category for me. I'll listen for a change of pace but not for hardcore information.
3) FFTD is a good mix of being entertaining and getting quality information. I like all of the main 4 hosts.
4) I don't listen to a lot of BDGE but he is pretty good.
5) I can't watch fantasy pros. They have too many dorky/obnoxious/cocky guests.
6) ETR...I don't like Levitan or Silva but they are good at what they do.
7) Flock..Seems good but I don't watch much.
8) I think Sal is fine. I like the way he edits his videos. There is a lot of content packed in a show. I don't know about his player takes since I don't watch much.
Here are a few I frequent that weren't mentioned.
One Week Season with JM.....He might be the best at explaining DFS theory.
Legendary Upside.....This is another one I watch more for the DFS/Best ball theory. The main guy is Pat Kerrane. He got incredibly lucky to win BBM 3 and now people see him as a God. I like the guy and he does seem knowledgeable but I'm not impressed with his player takes. If you are a member of the cult you drafted a ton of Rico Dowdle, Chase Brown and Drake Maye. Maybe this will work out. The real star of the show is Sam Sherman I think. He brings good stats to back up some good player takes.
The Coach Speak Index....I bring this up because this could be a valuable pod for you.That being said, I find the vibe to be creepy from the opening music to the host. It does have some good nuggets of info.

He is either ready to go or he is not. I don't think they consider who their opponent is in their start/sit decision. Green Bay typically is very careful with player injuries. I suspect he plays this week he is close to100%.
He had a 3.11 yprr with a rookie qb (I know he’s elite but he was like around the 10th best qb last year, so not much different than Goff, he obv has a ton of upside to be top 3)
3.11 was second to reek and anything over 3 is obviously insane
That’s the only stat I can remember of his from last year
Looks like Nico separates just find.

75% Akers was stupid
reverse jinx, one time
Godwin's paying this year.
Dobbins completely has that backfield now. Not an astounding observation but he really ran away with it.
Nabers is insane. I’m also insane bc I benched him in 1 lg for Olave (have Wilson and Rashee too)
Did at least play him in the other 3 LGs I have him
Akers hits, we like that.
Why oh why did I bench Monty for Pollard :(
What are the odds Aubrey ends the season as a top 30 player?
He’s 20 right now…
Can’t believe I picked up Jennings and am still prob gonna lose to an Andy Dalton/Diontae Johnson stack…
JT, Jennings, Danny Dimes gonna lead one of my teams to victory this week.....:shocked:
I hope none of you spent a lot of money on Jordon Mason.
I tried to warn you folks that Aiyuk is a fraud.
We thought Bryce Young was bad coming into this week, now how bad do you think he is?
I guess Clint Kubiak isn't a genius after all.
Do we still think Mike Macdaniel is a genius? How do you leave your team so barren at back up QB?
So Darnold is working out as a plug and play, damn! No regrets.
I'm shocked at how little they target BIjan in the pass game. I cannot make sense of it.
RIP Mark Andrews.

I don't think Zac Robinson knows what he's doing yet. Hopefully they can figure it out.
Bijan is doing what I thought Saquon would do and Saquon is doing what I hoped Bijan would do.
