    Full 1st Round NFL Mock Draft! NFL Draft Podcast EP. 8

    Garret, Andrew, and Jagger transform into NFL general managers for a complete first-round mock draft covering all 32 picks, and the results spark immediate controversy. Fernando Mendoza predictably goes first overall to the Raiders, but the chaos begins at pick two when Jagger selects safety Caleb Downs for the Jets instead of trading back. The quarterback-desperate teams face brutal decisions with only three signal-callers selected: Mendoza at one, Ty Simpson to the Jets at 16, and Garrett Nussmeier to the Rams at 29 in Jagger's boldest call of the draft. Garret prioritizes trenches for the Browns, selecting Francis Mauigoa at six and Olaivavega Ioane at 24 to rebuild Cleveland's decimated offensive line. The wide receiver class scatters throughout the first round with Carnell Tate landing in Tennessee at four to pair with Cam Ward, Jordyn Tyson to New Orleans at eight, and Denzel Boston falling to Buffalo at 26 after Jagger admits he "re-reviewed the tape" and raised his grade. The most dynasty-relevant selection lands at 19 when Carolina selects tight end Kenyon Sadiq to provide Bryce Young another weapon alongside Tetairoa McMillan, creating what the crew agrees is a "hand-in-glove fit" for the rebuilding Panthers.

    Dynasty Mailbag With the NERDHERD! Dynasty Fantasy Football Podcast EP. 789

    Rich, Matt, and Garret bring their first regular mailbag episode to the main podcast feed, and the Nerd Herd questions deliver spicy debates on every dynasty topic imaginable. The crew kicks off with underrated music recommendations before diving into whether aging veterans like AJ Brown, Jaylen Waddle, and Dak Prescott are worth a late 2027 first-round pick for rebuilding teams. Rich drops the hammer: anyone 27 years or older right now should be moved for future draft capital before the 2027 class becomes completely untouchable. The most controversial take surfaces when Garret reveals he ranks both Sam Darnold and Daniel Jones ahead of C.J. Stroud in dynasty, citing Daniel Jones's 18.0 points per game versus Stroud's 15.5 this past season. The crew debates whether Jones's Achilles recovery and the Colts trading two first-round picks for him creates a buying opportunity at depressed prices. Meanwhile, the quarterback rankings segment produces fireworks as all three hosts agree Drake Maye sits alone at the top, but Garret and Matt lean toward Caleb Williams over Jayden Daniels due to injury concerns despite Daniels finishing as fantasy's QB7 on a points per game basis. Rich emphasizes the 2028 draft class as the pivot target for rebuilders unable to acquire 2027 picks. Start Using the Film Room Today!

    Important Stats That PREDICT Future Fantasy Football Production! Dynasty Fantasy Football Podcast EP. 788

    Rich, Garret, and Matt reveal the statistical thresholds that separate dynasty hits from busts across all four positions. Garret breaks down years of historical data to show exactly which benchmarks predict long term success, and the numbers are shockingly consistent. Quarterbacks who hit 17 points per game in their first two seasons become franchise cornerstones 67% of the time, while running backs without 30 receptions in their first two years have under a 5% success rate. The data gets even more brutal for wide receivers. First round wide receivers who fail to reach 500 yards as rookies almost never recover, with only four outliers since 2010. Travis Hunter managed just 300 yards with injury issues, while Matthew Golden didn't reach the mark either despite staying healthy all season. The crew debates whether to sell now for 70 cents on the dollar before values crater completely. Meanwhile, Jaxson Dart already cleared the 17 PPG quarterback threshold at 17.3, while Cam Ward fell short at 11 despite second half improvements. Rookie tight ends Tyler Warren and Harold Fannin both finished top six, joining the elite club that includes only Kelce, Kittle, and Gronkowski. The data suggests these aren't just guidelines but predictive indicators dynasty managers should treat as gospel when making trades. 00:00:00 Start 00:04:23 Important QB Stats 00:23:53 Important RB Stats 00:33:57 FastDraft 00:37:07 FFPC 00:38:39 Important WR Stats 00:48:06 Important TE Stats Learn more about your ad choices.

    Senior Bowl Winners & Losers! NFL Draft Podcast EP. 7

    The 2026 Senior Bowl delivered underwhelming buzz compared to previous years, but Jagger May and Andrew Mott still found breakout performers and concerning tape. Mike Washington Jr. jumped to RB3 in Jagger's rankings with his 228-pound frame and receiving ability, while D3 sensation Tyren Montgomery from John Carroll measured in at 5'11" and impressed despite the competition level. The biggest surprise? This weak draft class is elevating prospects who simply did what they were supposed to do. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube Garrett Nussmeier won MVP honors and reminded everyone why he was projected as a top quarterback prospect despite LSU's messy season. Linebacker Jacob Rodriguez from Texas Tech showed sideline-to-sideline speed with elite coverage skills, while Missouri edge rusher Zion Young earned defensive MVP. Indiana's Kaelon Black impressed with his 500-pound squat translating to downhill thumping ability, while Oklahoma's Jaydn Ott moved from undrafted territory to day three consideration. Diego Pavia measured in at just 5'9" and showed inconsistent mobility, likely dropping to undrafted status. Arkansas quarterback Taylen Green has the physical tools at 6'6" and 229 pounds but showed poor decision-making. Nick Singleton suffered a broken foot, eliminating combine testing and potentially ending his draft hopes entirely after production already dipped at Penn State. The crew emphasizes that all film breakdowns are available in the Dynasty Nerds Film Room for deeper evaluation.

    1QB PPR Dynasty Startup Draft! Dynasty Fantasy Football Podcast EP. 786

    Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price conducted a live one QB PPR startup draft with Nerd Herd members, revealing stark strategy differences from superflex formats. Rich secured Bijan Robinson at 1.02, while Garrett grabbed De'Von Achane at 1.06, and Matt made an experimental pick taking Brock Bowers at 1.10 despite later regretting the decision. The draft showcased dramatically different positional value compared to superflex formats. Drake May went in the second round, but most quarterbacks fell significantly later. Rich won the quarterback chicken game, waiting until round 10 to take Dak Prescott while quality options like C.J. Stroud, Cam Ward, and Jared Goff remained available. He emphasized cycling through veteran quarterbacks in one QB formats rather than investing premium picks. Matt's Bowers pick sparked debate about tight end strategy. He admitted afterward he would pivot to CeeDee Lamb if redrafting, noting Tucker Kraft went in the fifth round with similar per-game production. Rich doubled down on tight ends, taking Kyle Pitts and Dalton Kincaid back-to-back, betting on elite upside at the position. The hosts agreed this represents the deepest young tight end class in dynasty history, making waiting on the position more viable than ever before.

    Dynasty ADP Check-in! Dynasty Fantasy Football Podcast EP. 785

    Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price dissected the latest superflex tight end premium ADP, revealing major value shifts and draft strategies. The trio agreed that quarterback value has evolved dramatically, with elite options like Brock Purdy and Trevor Lawrence falling to the third and fourth rounds while top picks are dominated by skill position players. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube The hosts highlighted Travis Etienne at running back 21 as a screaming value after finishing as RB10 last season. Rich emphasized that proven producers like Etienne often get overlooked despite consistent fantasy production. They also debated Ashton Jeanty versus De'Von Achane, with Rich having a sizable gap between them despite similar ADP. At wide receiver, Jaylen Waddle emerged as a standout value at WR27, especially with Tyreek Hill likely departing Miami. The hosts loved his WR11 finish through Week 10 before injuries derailed the Dolphins. Ricky Pearsall also got love as a late-round value with a clear path to targets in Kyle Shanahan's offense. The tight end discussion revealed surprising depth in the young tier, with Harold Fannin Jr. and Tucker Kraft offering similar upside to more expensive options.
