Podcast: NFC West Preview 6-30-22
The Arizona Cardinals present a lot of change around QB Kyler Murray. He welcomes college teammate Marquise Brown but must wait out a PED suspension for DeAndre Hopkins. Can Cooper Kupp and the Los Angeles Rams repeat their magic from last year? Is Cam Akers or Darrell Henderson the backfield target? We fully expect the San Francisco 49ers to move on to Trey Lance. What does that mean for the fantasy football draft values of Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk and George Kittle? And we know the Seattle Seahawks want to run the ball. A lot. We don't know, however, who will run more between Kenneth Walker and Rashaad Penny or who will throw passes to D.K. Metcalf and Tyler Lockett. Let's sort through it all to kick off this 8-part fantasy football podcast series ...Arizona Cardinals ... 1:59Los Angeles Rams ... 27:30San Francisco 49ers ... 49:31Seattle Seahawks ... 1:12:47Check out our full 2022 fantasy football rankings.

Best-ball fantasy football drafting -- especially this time of year -- tends to be about spreading your player exposures and building a portfolio.

We're looking through ADPs from the main best-ball outlets to pick out who you should and shouldn't be targeting right now ...Check out our full 2022 fantasy football rankings, and set up your own customized Draft War Room.

Podcast: NFL Draft Round 1 Reactions 4-30-22
We knew this wasn't a great NFL Draft for offensive skill-position talent. The NFL emphasized that with a 1st round that included only 1 QB, no RBs and no TEs. We did, however, get big moves for Jameson Williams and Chris Olave -- plus 4 other wideouts joining them on Thursday night. The biggest moves, however, might have been the trades of A.J. Brown and Marquise Brown. We're breaking down all the action that's set to impact your fantasy football drafts -- whether you're playing redraft, dynasty or both.Check out our updated full dynasty rankings and rookie rankings.
