Dynasty Compass | Training Camp Signals vs. Static

Week 2 of the preseason is in the books, and the news firehose is wide open. But which reports are signals worth acting on — and which ones are just preseason static?

In this episode of Dynasty Compass, host Jeff Blaylock (aka The Other Jeff B from Footballguys) breaks down how dynasty managers can separate meaningful camp information from misleading tropes. You’ll also get the latest on Brian Robinson Jr., Joe Mixon, Rashee Rice, and more in our Getting Our Bearings segment.

📌 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• Why Brian Robinson Jr. may be on the trade block — and what it means for Washington’s backfield
• Joe Mixon’s murky injury situation and dynasty outlook
• The looming suspension for Rashee Rice and how to play it in dynasty
• Classic training camp tropes that are usually static (best shape of his life, single highlight plays, vague coachspeak, early depth chart surprises)
• The kinds of reports that do count as signals — sustained role changes, consistent usage, multi-source confirmation
• The 3-question filter every dynasty manager should ask: Is it a one-day thing? Is it a one-source thing? Is it a one-context thing?
