On today's episode of the Dynasty Drive I'm reacting to where the fantasy relevant players from round one of the 2022 NFL Draft ended up. We had a number of the highly touted wide receivers come off the board, but we only saw one quarterback get selected. If that wasn't enough we also saw AJ Brown get dealt to the Philadelphia Eagles, and Marquise 'Hollywood' Brown get dealt to the Arizona Cardinals. Make sure you are subscribed to the podcast feed for the reaction to day 2 of the NFL Draft, and...

On today's episode of The Dynasty Drive we're picking up right where we left off last week. I'm diving into how my top 12 rookie running backs stack up currently before the NFL Draft gets underway. Of course draft capital and landing spot will impact a great deal of these rankings, but it's always valuable to stack up and compare pre-draft vs post draft. Make sure you're subscribed to the podcast feed so you don't miss the QBs and TEs next week. The draft will be here in just about two weeks and...

On today's episode of The Dynasty Drive it's time to get back to breaking down some of this year's rookie class, and where else is better to start than another loaded wide receiver class! Today I'm unveiling my top 12 rookie wide receiver rankings as they stand pre-draft. Of course draft capital and landing spot can impact these rankings, but it's always valuable to compare pre draft and post draft values. Make sure to subscribe or follow the podcast as next week I'll be doing the same with the ...

On today's episode The Dynasty Drive, I'm joined by Senior Fantasy Sports Writer with CBS Sports, Heath Cummings (@heathcummingssr)! Heath was kind enough to take some time out of his biggest schedule and talk about who could potentially breakout over the course of the 2022 NFL season. We touched on if there are any specific things he's looking for when identifying breakout candidates, if free agency has changed any of those potential breakouts, and who exactly a few players are that he's expect...

On today's episode of the show I am flying solo and talking about the latest NFL trades that have sent shockwaves across the fantasy landscape - Deshaun Watson was traded to the Browns, Matt Ryan was sent to the Colts, and Tyreek Hill was dealt to the Dolphins. After that, I run through a solo 4 round rookie mock that I ran on Sleeper just against the computer. The player value's get a little wonky down the stretch which I'm sure will normalize as the draft approaches, but nonetheless it's alway...

On today's episode of the podcast I am joined by JORDAN MCNAMARA (@McNamaraDynasty) from analyticsofdynasty.com to breakdown all of the latest moves in what's been an absolutely crazy NFL Free Agency.

From there we discuss the rest of the big news at WR, QB, RB and TE and determine how certain moves will impact player's fantasy value both...

On today's episode of the show I am reacting to all of the testing results from the fantasy relevant players on the first day of on-field workouts at the 2022 NFL Scouting Combine. Treylon Burks 40 yard dash time was a hot topic on Twitter, and we dive into whether or not it matters for his rookie projections. The two stud Ohio State WRs ran blazing times of their own. Outside of the WRs - we discuss whether anyone can catch Malik Willis as QB1 and a few of the notable results at the tight end p...

We are BACK after three weeks away! Apologies for the absence as my family and I were on vacation and had some travel plans change last minute that amended the podcast schedule, but it's time to get back to it. On today's episode I wanted to take just a few moments to highlight the depth of this RB class. We all know the headliners of the group at this point - Isaiah Spiller, Breece Hall and Kenneth Walker III, who are my RB1, 2 and 3 respectively, but what about the options who will be availabl...

On today's episode of The Dynasty Drive the whole Fantasy Wildcard gang joins the show to run through a two round rookie mock draft! I was lucky enough to chop it up with Kev (@dynasty_goat), Matt (@MattFFDynasty) and Ali (@FFDynastyGrill) and go through our first two round rookie mock draft of this offseason. This was a superflex, TE premium mock draft. How early did the quarterbacks come off the board? Where exactly is the talent cliff, and how late into round two can you expect to land differ...

The 2021 fantasy football season might be over which can only mean one thing - it is officially startup draft season! On today's show I ran through a solo startup mock draft scenario from the 1.07 slot. The format here was QB, RB, RB, WR, WR, WR, TE, FLEX, FLEX, SUPERFLEX. There are plenty of different strategies and scenarios you can work through in your startups, and this is only one of those. How did the board shake out and what'd the roster look like?

The Holidays are over, fantasy championships have either been won or lost, and we are truly back into the thick of dynasty season - and we've got you covered here on The Dynasty Drive. On today's show I talk a little about my current top five rookie WRs heading into the 2022 NFL Draft....OK....more like top six because I felt bad leaving one guy out. These players are all graded SUPER closely, and most have a legitimate claim to being labeled the WR1 of the class of 2022. Who should you be plann...

After a two week absence we are BACK, and what better thing to do at this time of year than start breaking down some of the talent that is likely to declare for the 2022 NFL Draft? Moving forward I'll begin highlighting tons of incoming talent, and after putting it to a poll on Twitter we're kicking things off with Texas A&M running back Isaiah Spiller. Is Spiller talented enough to be 2022's RB1? After that, Peter Traina (@pietrobets) joins the show to give us five picks for the week 10 sla...

On today’s show I give some very early thoughts regarding some of the possible candidates to be drafted in 2022 at the wide receiver and running back position. This is in no way any sort of deep dive, that will come later on as we approach the offseason, just wanted to put some quick thoughts out there. Then Peter Traina (@pietrobets) joins the show to give us four picks for week 7 of the NFL season!

Pete Traina (@pietrobets) joins me for the entire show this week to give his week 5 picks, and also discuss the Russell Wilson injury. We each also chipped in three players we’re currently trying to acquire ourselves in dynasty formats - these are players we think will return greater value down the line than how they may be valued in your leagues currently.
