Outstanding content! Really like the DBro/Pat combo. More with these two, please.

[tropicalwodfest]

Nick Chubb!! Is the only RB finished Top 3 in 2021 and 2022 season! This year he gets the first spot.

[Drakex]

Rhamondre Stevenson, Joe Mixon, Miles Sanders, & Khalil Herbert are some of my favorite RBs this upcoming season to get. Can't wait for fantasy to start!

[Art-vosn]

Great content, thanks guys! 1 question though. If Javonte Williams doesn't make it back or starts off on the PUP, what do we think about the potential for Samaje Perine as Sean Payton's lead back?

[grbggaming]

Pierce is gonna smash this year and you will regret not having him

[johnjacobs]

Akers will be this year's version of 2022 Jacobs...at least that what my exposures are hoping for lol

[peglegjohnson]

I want as much Dobbins, Akers, and Rhamondre as I can get this year! I'm taking wr's in the first two rounds, unless I'm amongst the first 3 or 4 picks and I can get Chubb or Pollard near the end of round 2.

[Camry]

You guys are the best! Happy Father's Day to all Dads.

The sleeper pick has to be David Montgomery. He's listed as RB 26 but he's averaged between 800 and 1, 000 yards behind a mediocre Bears line. Along with 300 yards receiving. He's taking over the primary role that Jamaal Williams just had and he had 1, 000 yards and 17 touchdowns. He's a better all around back than Williams. He could easily get 1, 200 yards with 12 touchdowns and another 300+ yards receiving.

The best breakdown of RB's I've come across. (I have a pff and dfl subscription too)

[dominicguzzetti]

Off of this list I definitely see Dobbins, Akers and Mattison. I don’t get the talk about Mattison splitting carries with guys that barely have played before. If anything it’ll be like a 75% to 25% Mattison to the Rb2 split. Outside this list I see Mixon and Najee making RB1 status.

[BryLips]

Always on Point! Appreciate all the info.

[billylanger]

Rashaad White could catch 100 balls if Mayfield is the QB 1. That to me gives him a clear path.

[JeramieW]

Absolutely 💯 Sanjit, I'm so excited to see our new and vastly improved Defense!! The secondary and defensive lines are both improved substantially.

[Boosie_wc]

I love the team you guys have here you guys have a great show always fun to watch/listen keep doing what you guys do !

[ricardogreen]

So I was offered and early 2024 1st in my dynasty league top 3 pick no debating and cam Akers for Kenneth Walker should I take that?

[darylowens]

This felt like a ‘Do Not Draft’ podcast…

[brandonclegg]

JK Dobbins probably has the best chance from the names talked about.

[alandavis]

Man, y'all keep forgetting about injuries on Tampa's o-line. That said White's ceiling is probably RB 15 over the season. Same for Mattison. I have these two and Herbert. Herbert is in case of emergency, break glass. Y'all hit my dynasty roster fairly well. I am not counting on much from Williams this year. Then next year he will be on the last year of his contract.

[chrisrocci]

I think Mattison pulls a Michael Turner lite - he won't see any stacked boxes and should finish with 8-10 TDs and about 1200 total yards.
