I woke up with some unexpected energy, so I recorded a quick pod. We'll be getting into some sleeper takes. We'll keep updating these as we move through the busiest portion of drafting season. 

It's roughly a 35 minute show and I go through all four positions. 

Enjoy and see you all on Monday!

Today we go through some of the news we've missed throughout the week and then we'll walk through a mock draft as I do it and talk about various options we have at each selection. 

Good luck with your drafts this weekend!

Today we have an hour of RB talk. We'll be working through backfields 14 through 32 and then we'll be getting into the backup RBs who have stand-alone value over and above some of the starters. 

Back tomorrow with news and players to target over the weekend. 

Today we work through 45 minutes of running back goodness. This comprises part 1 of what I intended to be one long pod. For technical and other reasons, we are breaking them in two. 

Part 2 drops tomorrow. 

Friday's show will be about tightening things up for those drafting this weekend. 

Today we walk through the top 50 receivers in my rankings. Nothing too shocking but I try to get into how I am targeting versus just rankings. 

Back with the running backs tomorrow!

In this episode we walk through the QB rankings. I'll be back tomorrow morning with the WR rankings.

Enjoy!

Today we walk through the Tight End rankings. I'll be back with the Quarterbacks in a few hours, and we'll be dropping the Wide Receivers tomorrow. 

Enjoy!

With a lot of folks drafting this weekend, today's show is all about targeting players. I break down the big news first and then it's player targets for about 45 minutes. 

Next week's schedule:

• Monday: Tight Ends & Deep QB Dive
• Tuesday: WR Rankings
• Wednesday: RB Rankings
• Thursday: Heat Map & Deep Sleepers
• Friday: Updates and The Rotobahn Draft Plan

Today's pod jumps around from news to the Chiefs to some ADP discussion on both the tight ends and quarterbacks. 

Back tomorrow with a list of draft targets for folks drafting this weekend!

In today's show, I go through various auction concepts plus somr other things I've picked after 25 plus years of auction drafting. There is a lot of basics but also some ideas more experienced drafters may find compelling.

If there is further interest, I will tack on a second auction podcast with a lengthy section to answer your questions and perhaps share some of your comments. For example, if a highly structured approach is something you are sold on, and it has worked for you, tell us about it!

See you all tomorrow.

It's a quick 24 minute show with some news and a fresh look at the Bronco's RJ Harvey. 

I'll be back later today with a look at auction drafting. 

Today we have a quick 30 minute run through news and some preseason film. 

Back tomorrow!

Today we work through some news, a small rant on FF content and then we get into the RBs. I walk though my current Top 30 and then we look a bunch of targets that come later. 

If you want to skip straight to the RBs, you want the 20 minute mark.

Enjoy!

Back tomorrow!

Just a casual pod today. Going through some mocks and doing one live. This is not must-listen stuff but you degenerates might like it! 

See you all tomorrow morning. 

A lot happened yesterday and last night. We break it all down on today's pod plus a look at ADP in a conceptual way. 

Back tomorrow for a Saturday pod!

As always we go through the news, After that I am getting into the wide receivers and my early tiers, plus a look at who I am targeting after the big dogs are gone. 

Back tomorrow!

Today we catch up on some news and take a look at the dangers of fantasy love. 

Tomorrow will be a receivers day. See you then!

Buckle-up! 

This one is a whopper. You may even want to break this down into two listens. I go for a good 70 minutes on all these offensive lines, coaches and then the backs themselves.

This was fun to do and I am happy with the results. Hope you all are too!

Back tomorrow. 

Today we catch up on the weekend's news. I'm pushing the OL/RB show to tomorrow. It grew too big and I need to scale it back some and tighten things up. It'll drop tomorrow. See you all then!

Today's show includes: 

• James Cook
• Khalil Shakir
• Jordan Addison
• Tyler Warren
• Trey Benson

Good morning, all!

Here's a pod for your morning coffee. It's me talking my way through a 12-team 20-round mock draft with PPR scoring. It's single QB and double flex.

See you all on Monday!

The team: 

We are finally back to our regularly scheduled show. Peruse the divisional pods at your leisure if you missed any. 

On today's show I break today's fantasy news and get into some TE analysis. Be back soon!

Today is the fourth and final installment of my breakdowns by division. We've now covered all 32 teams and all 8 divisions. Tomorrow we get into the fun stuff! See you all then.

It's almost drafting season, y'all

The pod is back after an unscheduled day off.

It's the DMV's fault, y'all!

Today we look at both of the North divisions and I'll be back tomorrow to break down the AFC South and the NFC West!

Giddyup!

In our second divisional depth chart breakdown, we focus on the AFC East and the NFC South.

I'll be back tomorrow with a look at the AFC and NFC North divisions.

I'll be back tomorrow with a look at the AFC West and NFC East. 

It's finally over! As Tom Petty said, the waiting is the hardest part. And, the waiting is finally over. Here's another somewhat indulgent discussion on what I did and why. It's about a 40 minute listen as I walk through each and every selection. 

Follow this link to look at the board. 

See you all soon! Drafting season is almost upon us!

Today's show is a 30 or so minute chat about the dynasty startup we talked about last episode. The draft is currently stalled near the end of round six, so it's a good time to take a break and catch you all up. You can (hopefully) follow the draft via the link below. 

Link to 12-team superflex dynasty startup draft.

I'll be back with updates in the next few days. 

This is a relaxed podcast. It's basically me thinking through some things as I peruse the startup rankings from DLF's site. 

DLF is a pretty good deal for those who've never used their site. 

Anyway, the pod goes long—about 45 minutes. I walk through all four position groups and chat on players, and whether I am targeting them and so on. 

I'll be back later this week—hopefully with some details from the draft.

Enjoy!

Today I conclude my takes on the UDPL Rookie Draft.

You can follow this link to see the draft. 

My completed draft:

I'll be back next week with a look at my evolving dynasty board, in anticipation of my upcoming startup draft. See you all then!

Today we get into the end of round two and the first half of round three. Even with two extra high picks, I couldn't get all of my guys. Thankfully my newly added players are more than enough to heal my emotional wounds. 

The team so far: 

1.03 - Omarion Hampton

1.06 - Travis Hunter

2.06 - Bhayshul Tuten

2.09 - Tyler Shough

3.06 - Jalen Royals

(Player links got to NFL.com scouting reports)

We are now in day three of the 2025 UDPL Rookie Draft. Sadly, while we are in day three, we are only in the middle of the second round.

Today I walk through the 19 picks that have already been made. I'll pick up on the rest tomorrow morning and throughout the week. 

I should be doing a startup with ESPN's Matt Miller running the draft. It should begin shortly after the conclusion of UDPL. I'll be giving out the details on that as well. 

Pretty soon we'll be making redraft boards and talking about the Scott Fish Bowl!

See you all tomorrow. 

We're back! Today I spend about 30 minutes sorting out the draft and its ramifications on our upcoming rookie drafts. I spend a few minutes on each of the big four position groups.

You can follow along with the UDPL Draft right here. 

I'll be posting a few pods over the next week as we move through the draft!

See you all soon!

It's Draft Day, and though I've been delinquent when it comes to my mic, I am here to drop some dynasty rookie info before we kick off the draft.

As always, I will live posting the UDPL Draft.

The UDPL(Ultimate Dynasty Podcasters League) has teams from Dynasty Nerds, DTC, NBC Sports Edge and many others. It's a solid group, so the picks are worth following. 

League Breakdown:

• 12 team
• Superflex
• TE premium
• BIG rosters + taxi
• 5 round rookie draft

I'll be dropping a few pods over the next week so we can process both the NFL and the UDPL drafts.

See you all then!

Have fun tonight!

Today I break down my initial film dives into Oklahoma State RB Ollie Gordon, and Penn State TE Tyler Warren.

Enjoy!

We are back! Today we get into some Tetairoa McMillan evaluation and then a 12-team mock draft I participated in a few days back. 

Be back soon!

Happy Holidays to all!

Today we unpack the options for the two teams left standing in your league(s), and I can only assume you all are running one of those still standing teams.

I mean, please tell you are not listening to the waiver wire for fun!

LOLZ

So health, happiness and all the best to you and yours. May your presents be loved by those who receive them. May the ones you receive bring joy.

Appreciate you all and see you soon.

Peace

Today we are talking Isaiah Bond—a receiver who started off at Alabama, and this year, transferred to Texas.

He's been making a lot of big plays as a Longhorn.

This is a quick 15 minute report!

See you all tomorrow with a look at Week 16 DFS!

Congrats on being alive!

It's a fun time to set a lineup, unless you are one of them worriers. I say embrace the pressure and enjoy it!

"This game is fun, dammit" -- Crash Davis

Today we work through the Week 16 pickups as we try to survive and make it to the big dance.

Back tomorrow with a new rookie!

A quick 25 minute walk through what I am doing with my DFS dollars in Week 15.

Good luck with all of your fantasy endeavors!

Today we dive back into Severance!

In today's pod, we go through a bunch of quotes from season one, and I try, quite hard, to not bloviate too much! This should be fun, whether you watched the show one time or 50 times. 

Season 2 starts on 1/17/25!

If you still have not read The Lexington Letter, follow this link.

In the next episode, we'll finally get into some of the show's mysteries and some of the Easter eggs they left for us to discover. Hope to see you then!

Welcome back to the Rotobahn Pod! Had to take yesterday off and may need tomorrow as well. Have a bit of a situation with my wife and need to get her to a better Doctor asap. Amazing how long that takes these days. 

I should be online tonight, so feel free to send me any questions you have as far as Week 15 pickups go. 

Good luck to all this week! You earned it!

This morning I take a quick 15 minute walk through the slate and what my plays are looking like. 

Good luck today, in all your fantasy endeavors!

Today I take a break from football to do a 40 minute catch up session on one of my absolute favorite shows, Severance. 

This episode is a primer for those who've been away from the show since it dropped back in the spring on 2022. In the next two pods, we are going to do deeper dives into some of the really intriguing elements of Severance, which is a whole lot more than a look at the work life balance. It's jam packed with metaphor and allegory, and we'll try to unpack some of it and have some fun.

Speaking of fun, Severance Season Two drops on January 17th!

See you all in a few days!

Lastly, you can read The Lexington Letter here!

It's a long pod today. We dive into some news and some potential roster ideas for this weekend and beyond. I finish up with a dive into week 14 roster construction on DraftKings. 

See you all on Sunday morning!

Today we get into another rookie. North Carolina's Omarian Hampton—a back who needs to be taken very seriously. We love those 3-down ceilings!

Back tomorrow with some DFS and some waiver wire redux. 

I take a quick walk through the best ads for Week 14 and bitch a bit about my Lights Out team. I limit the dialogue, but the pain is real.

I'll be back tomorrow with a fresh look at a 2025 rookie!

For anybody who wants a 2nd opinion on tonight's adds, just hit me up on Bluesky!

See you all tomorrow!

Welcome back, folks. Today we are catching up on Week 13's injuries and taking a look forward to tomorrow's wire. I also go through the Athletic's take on playoff odds and SB Champion odds. It's sort of interesting.

See you all tomorrow

Just a brief step into the Week 13 slate. Not a ton of nuggets this week as my prep time was massively curtailed. Still, had to chime in with what I got, because I missed you all!

Back on the regular schedule starting tomorrow.

I hope you all had a good holiday!

Today's prospect is Mizzou's Luther Burden. A 200 plus pound receiver with a lot of ability after the catch.

Happy Thanksgiving!
