    Episode 103: Post Trade Deadline Valuations

    The trade deadline has passed, and Chris and Drew find themselves still firmly entrenched in The Dynasty Guru lineup! This week, they talk about players who do have new addresses and which ones might have increased their fantasy value. Also, Chris introduces the phrase "The Goldilocks Zone" to the pod, and Drew revisits 1987 and what was NOT the most regrettable deadline trade ever. Give it a listen and let us know what you think.
