Yahoo Fantasy Forecast: Draft Edition

The Sunday action for Week 12 is in the can! This is it. Just one regular season week left for most fantasy leagues before the playoffs — are you ready?While some teams are in excellent position to dominate, others aren't. And those who have been led by Melvin Gordon now find themselves in a nightmarish situation.The Chargers were in the midst of a soon-to-be blowout victory over the Cardinals when Gordon — who almost didn't even start due to lingering ailments — went down. Initial reports suggested an MCL injury suffered by the star runner, but fantasy owners will have to wait until full confirmation to be sure.Our Yahoo fantasy experts discuss that and more on today’s fantasy wrap podcast. One of those subjects include the return of the Patriots offense, as Tom Brady, Rob Gronkowski (at last!), Sony Michel, and Julian Edelman all had great fantasy days. Perhaps the bye week helped fix issues in the Evil Empire?Our experts then asked you which quarterback — with both Jared Goff and Patrick Mahomes on bye and Drew Brees enjoying a long layoff — had the most surprising fantasy performance on Sunday (all hail Baker Mayfield!)Liz, Scott, and Matt then wrap up with a few pickup options for Week 13.Please remember to rate, review and subscribe on your podcast provider of choice and send us your questions for future episodes on Twitter @YahooFantasy.Follow Liz @LizLoza_FFFollow Scott @scott_pianowskiFollow Matt @MattHarmon_BYB See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Week 12's first slate of games begins on Thanksgiving. As such, it's only right that Liz Loza and Dalton Del Don take this podcast episode to discuss the fantasy players they're thankful for this year (not enough thanks to go around for Andrew Luck, TBH).But that's not all Liz and Dalton discuss in this early week episode. Of course, they have to dissect that game-changing Monday night matchup between the Chiefs and Rams — and what happened to Todd Gurley?!Our experts also dive into the three games on Turkey Day. Will Ezekiel Elliott continue his torrid stretch? How will injuries to Mitchell Trubisky and Kerryon Johnson affect Bears-Lions? Can Falcons-Saints match Rams-Chiefs? What will *gulp* Colt McCoy do against the Dallas D?They’ve also asked you about the players you're most worried about letting you down in Week 12 (is Carson Wentz going downhill?).Of course, we can’t forget about Andy and Brad going at it over their Week 12 rankings, and there are some differing opinions about Deshaun Watson.Liz and Dalton then wrap up with a couple bargains and fades for Yahoo Daily Fantasy.Remember to rate, review and subscribe on your podcast provider of choice and send us your questions for future episodes on Twitter @YahooFantasy.Follow Liz: @LizLoza_FFFollow Dalton: @DaltondeldonFollow Brad: @YahooNoiseFollow Andy: @Andybehrens See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

The fantasy playoffs are getting closer and closer. The more the season nears its finish, the more things become clear — while other things just continue to get muddled. Like the Titans — what is happening? The Marcus Mariota-led offense showed us so much the past couple of weeks only to completely fall apart against the powerhouse Colts.Speaking of powerhouses, Drew Brees and the Saints have pushed their way into the conversation for not only best team in the NFC, but best team in the league after they utterly dominated the Eagles.Speaking of muddled, who, pray tell, is Gus Edwards, and why did he break every Alex Collins-owners' hearts today?Our Yahoo fantasy experts discuss that and more on today's fantasy wrap podcast. One of the subjects they broke down were the blow-up performances by two rookie wideouts, D.J. Moore and Tre'Quan Smith. Moore and Smith also lead our experts' pickup options for Week 12, when two powerhouses, Kansas City and the Rams, will be on bye.Our experts then asked you which players brought you closer to — or farther from — the fantasy playoffs (thank you, T.Y. Hilton).Please remember to rate, review and subscribe on your podcast provider of choice and send us your questions for future episodes on Twitter @YahooFantasy.Follow Scott @scott_pianowskiFollow Dalton @daltondeldon See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

It's a matchup that fantasy gamers can only dream of. You've been waiting for it. I've been waiting for it. We all have. Finally, on Monday night in Week 11, we will get it. Rams versus Chiefs. Two of the three teams (Saints) that have pretty much broken fantasy football this season will face off. Most, if not all fantasy teams with playoff aspirations have multiple active assets in this game. Patrick Mahomes and Todd Gurley; of course. Tyreek Hill and Robert Woods; probably.Matt Harmon and Dalton Del Don want to make sure we're all ready for that game, and all the other major fantasy happenings that have led up to kickoff on this week's preview podcast.Our experts delve into the devastating Cooper Kupp-injury, the Le'Veon Bell fallout, and the Ravens quarterback situation.They've also asked you about the bench players you're forced to play in this six-team bye week — the ones you're hoping will go off (please, Doug Martin, please!).Of course, we can’t forget about Andy and Brad going at it over their Week 11 rankings, and there's a grudge match going on between Corey Davis and Larry Fitzgerald.Matt and Dalton then wrap up with a couple bargains and fades for Yahoo Daily Fantasy.Remember to rate, review and subscribe on your podcast provider of choice and send us your questions for future episodes on Twitter @YahooFantasy.Follow Matt: @MattHarmon_BYBFollow Dalton: @DaltondeldonFollow Brad: @YahooNoiseFollow Andy: @Andybehrens See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Scoring was in full effect in Week 10 yet surprisingly, the Ryan Fitzpatrick-led Bucs could muster only three points. Could the Tampa Bay coaching staff turn back to Jameis Winston? On the flip side, the Bears offense had no trouble on Sunday. The wide receiver duo of Allen Robinson and Anthony Miller showed out as Chicago continues to prove itself a force in the NFC.Our Yahoo fantasy experts discuss those performances and more on this week's wrap podcast. They also break down the offensive outbursts of both the Browns and the Titans (three touchdowns for Baker Mayfield!)Our experts then hear your tales of woe about the players that may have put your fantasy seasons in jeopardy — and you can imagine how many people felt about the Andy Dalton/Joe Mixon combo. And Tom Brady? Ouch. (22:50)They also offer up a couple of pickup options for Week 11 when Buffalo, Cleveland, New England, Miami, San Francisco, and the Jets will be on bye.

Ah, Week 10. Just six (or seven, depending on your league) weeks left in the fantasy football season. Now is a time for reflection, to look back and...actually, scratch that. Now is the time to look forward, because the fantasy playoffs are just on the horizon! Now is the time to reevaluate your roster (what will Tyler Boyd be sans A.J. Green?), to make peace — or war — with injured stars (Dalvin Cook is back...and resting on his bye), and to take note of the players who are tied to your playoff hopes.Yes, our experts asked you to list the players you believe will spell your fantasy success or your fantasy doom come playoff time — no pressure, Aaron Jones.Along with that roster rundown, our experts also break down all the biggest Week 10 happenings. Among these of course is the return of Dez Bryant, who has now joined the Saints' already-elite offense (4:30).Our experts then share some fantasy assets that you should be trying to buy and/or sell before your league's trade deadline. Hint: start talking to your league's David Johnson-owner (9:30).Of course, we can’t forget about Andy and Brad going at it over their Week 10 rankings (22:45), and Nick Mullens is causing some chaos among them!Liz and Dalton then wrap up with a couple bargains and fades for Yahoo Daily Fantasy (32:45).Remember to rate, review and subscribe on your podcast provider of choice and send us your questions for future episodes on Twitter @YahooFantasy.Follow Liz: @LizLoza_FFFollow Dalton: @DaltondeldonFollow Brad: @YahooNoiseFollow Andy: @Andybehrens See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Week 9's Sunday action has come and gone, and we officially have no more undefeated teams left in the league. Yes, the Los Angeles Rams finally fell, moving to 8-1 after a 45-35 loss to the New Orleans Saints. Alvin Kamara played a huge part in that victory, scoring three touchdowns before halftime. Remember when people were freaking out about Ingram cutting into Kamara's value? Well, if Week 9 is any indication, Kamara is in no danger whatsoever going down the line.Our experts analyze Kamara and much more on this week’s podcast (16:15). They break down the return of some injured stars (DALVIN COOK AT LAST)(19:00), as well as the impressive run the Panthers are on (what a game, Christian McCaffrey, what a game)(12:15). They also talk about a few of the offenses that they're just not on anymore (what happened, Baltimore?)(1:00).Our experts then hear your thoughts on the fantasy players who let owners down on Sunday (22:30). Don't worry, we feel for you, Mike Evans and John Brown owners.They also offer up a couple of pickup options for Week 10 when Denver, Minnesota, Baltimore, and Houston will be on bye (33:30).Please remember to rate, review and subscribe on your podcast provider of choice and send us your questions for future episodes on Twitter @YahooFantasy.Follow Scott @scott_pianowskiFollow Matt @MattHarmon_BYB See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Week 9 is here, and with it, a familiar feeling of fatigue might be setting in. At this point in the season, most players have a clear (or at least, clearer) idea about where they stand. You're either sitting pretty, in the playoff hunt, or already thinking about next year. If you're out of the running, you might feel tempted to sit the next few weeks out. To just go through the motions. Maybe even quit!Never fear though — on this week’s podcast episode, our experts will help you fight that fatigue to finish your 2018 fantasy season strong! (17:15)Along with those therapeutic musings, our experts also break down all the biggest Week 9 happenings. These of course include the wild moves at the trade deadline: Demaryius Thomas to the Texas, Golden Tate to the Eagles, and more (and lest we forget, Fitzmagic is real, people). (01:00)Our experts then share the bench players that fantasy owners are being forced to start in this bye-heavy week. Yes, people have had no choice but to start Nathan Peterman. This is happening. (25:40)Of course, we can’t forget about Andy and Brad going at it over their Week 9 rankings. They have some very different opinions on Philip Rivers and Geronimo Allison this week! (31:45)Liz and Matt then wrap up with a couple bargains and fades for Yahoo Daily Fantasy.

Week 8's Sunday action has come to a close, and (a bit unexpectedly) the Oakland Raiders showed life. After scoring 13 total points in crushing, back-to-back losses, Derek Carr and the offense scored 28 points. The defense couldn't stop Marlon Mack and the suddenly-juggernaut Colts though, but still, it begs the question: could the Raiders be a more viable fantasy resource sans Amari Cooper?Our experts analyze that and much more on this week's podcast. They also break down the Panthers demolition of the best defense in the league, along with Todd Gurley's continued MVP-season and the stunning nature of Adrian Peterson's fight against Father Time.Our experts then hear your thoughts on players you are no longer going to bench after Week 8 (welcome back, Larry Fitzgerald). (20:40)They also offer up a couple of pickup options for Week 9 when Arizona, Cincinnati, Indianapolis, Jacksonville, New York Giants, and Philadelphia will be on bye.

Week 8 is here! On this week’s episode, our experts break down all the happenings leading up to kickoff, including Todd Gurley's continued dominance over...well...everyone (he's outscoring entire teams, ENTIRE TEAMS, GUYS). Also, a Raider became a Cowboy this week, when Oakland traded Amari Cooper to Dallas. Though the 'Boys definitely needed a wide receiver, should fantasy players even care about this move, and what effect will it have (if any) on Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott?Later, our experts discuss the prospect of handcuffing at this stage of the fantasy season, as well as potential targets to hit on.As we get closer to Halloween, Liz and Dalton decide to compare fantasy players to horror movie monsters. Basically, Freddy Krueger = Andy Dalton. On that same note, they share your comparisons between fantasy asset and movie monster (Le'Veon Bell is the Invisible Man *ugly laughs*).Of course, we can’t forget about Andy and Brad going at it over their Week 8 rankings — and they have some very different opinions about Chris Carson.Liz and Dalton then wrap up with a couple bargains and fades for Yahoo Daily Fantasy.Remember to rate, review and subscribe on your podcast provider of choice and send us your questions for future episodes on Twitter @YahooFantasy.Follow Liz: @LizLoza_FFFollow Dalton: @daltondeldonFollow Brad: @YahooNoiseFollow Andy: @Andybehrens See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
