    Do I Need to Change My Mind? 🧠 Offseason Changes & Rookie Thoughts

    On this week's episode of the FFF podcast, Bryce Johnson and Trip Smith consider players and strategies that we might be wrong about. As Fantasy managers, it’s easy to get locked into old philosophies, past player performances, or old draft perspectives. But with a wave of offseason coaching changes and a fresh crop of rookies, this is a new season—and we have to be willing to change our minds before we draft, while also staying rooted in the clear fundamentals of Fantasy Football. We dive deep into players whose fantasy value is shifting due to new schemes (including Mike Evans, Kyler Murray, Travis Etienne Jr., and Jaylen Waddle), debate which players will be better or worse than their current rankings, and break down the 2026 rookies to find late-round gold. Finally, we transition to a powerful discussion of faith: in a constantly changing world, how do we allow the Holy Spirit to renew our minds and attitudes while remaining firmly anchored in the unchanging foundation of Jesus Christ? Drop a comment below: Which player's offseason move has completely changed your mind about their draft value? 📖 SCRIPTURE REFERENCED IN THIS EPISODEEphesians 4:22-23 (NLT): "throw off your old sinful nature and your former way of life... Instead, let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes."Hebrews 13:8 (ESV): "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever."Matthew 4:17 (AMP): "From that time Jesus began to preach and say, 'Repent [change your inner self—your old way of thinking... seek God’s purpose for your life], for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.'" 🔗 CONNECT WITH THE MINISTRYOfficial Website: fantasyfootballfellowship.comEmail Bryce Directly: Bryce@fantasyfootballfellowship.com Hosted on Acast.
