  • Concise Yet Thorough

    Jeff’s my go to for fantasy. I dropped nearly all other fantasy football podcasts because they were too long or the hosts banter unnecessarily too much.

  • Corporatization of the pod

    Sad to see how corporate this podcast got compared to previous years. One of the biggest news drops is waivers for Tuesday’s and that’s behind paywall now. 5+ mins of commercials every episode now.

    Bad changes to the pod this year Jeff

Biggest Rankings Movers in Week 13
Q: What do you think about Joe Burrow starting this week?
I believe Joe Burrow will be back under center for the Bengals, and it's a must-win situation for the team against the Ravens.
Jeff gets his balls broken
Q: Should I just use promo code Rat Pack at ftnfantasy.com for 10% off?
Yes, you should use promo code Rat Pack to get a discount.
He's the fastest kid alive
Q: What's your favorite draft spot to pick from?
Jeff's favorite spot is always number one, as statistically it allows assembling the most robust roster. If not one, then he prefers two or three, and sees picking from the 12th spot as the worst position.
No worries about CeeDee Lamb
Q: Do you have any tips on dynasty, on where can we find some dynasty content from you?
Jeff promotes the Rookie Fantasy Scouting Guide and mentions the FTN Discord for strategies and interactions.
Shenanigans
Q: What would be the number one piece of fantasy advice for a newbie?
Don't worry about how many points a player scores, worry how many more points that player is projected to score than the next highest guy on waivers.
