Eric Moody of The Athletic is on with us today as we analyze how Michael Thomas' (5:20) injury impacts the fantasy landscape and dive into our top starts and sits of the week. Is J.K. Dobbins (13:17) a must-start RB if he retains his goal-line role, will Jamison Crowder (25:17) have another double-digit target game, and is Chris Carson (37:59) destined to see fewer than 10 carries again? The guys close the show by previewing Th...

We're joined by fantasy sports OG, Brandon Funston of The Athletic! We kick things off by recapping both Monday night games and offering our thoughts on the state of the Steelers' backfield (3:47).

The show conclude...

The full crew is on today to break down the best waiver adds heading into Week 2. Is Malcolm Brown (10:40) the de facto top pickup or should Nyheim Hines (14:27) be your No. 1 waiver priority? Parris Campbell (31:11) may headline a list of compelling free agent WRs and Gardner Minshew (46:35) appears to be a viable weekly option at QB.

On today's show, the guys discuss the latest NFL headlines (3:15) before answering the big question of who's the next Miles Sanders (12:22)? Which top-10 RB has the chance to become the next Le'Veon Bell (20:07) -- a disappointing early-round RB -- and who is the next Michael Gallup (32:22) -- a mid-round under-the-radar WR who could break out? Late...

We brought in Scott Fish, creator of the Scott Fish Bowl, to help us dissect how Adrian Peterson's (2:56) arrival affects Detroit's backfield and share his thoughts on which players fantasy managers should consider stashing.

Green's (46:47) latest injury woes prevent him from s...

Sigmund Bloom of Footballguys.com joins the pod to share which players he likes much more or less than our expert consensus rankings and we also give our thoughts on Alvin Kamara's (6:14) contract-related absences from practice and whether he's worth taking fourth overall.
