    Which Players' Values Have Changed The Most This Offseason? with Dave Kluge

    Which Players' Values Have Changed The Most This Offseason? with Dave Kluge
    The time between NFL free agency and the draft is an odd time for fantasy, where players' values are at an inflection point. How do you value Denver's wide receivers, considering their uncertain quarterback situation? What about Chase Edmonds, with James Conner coming in and the possibility of the Cardinals drafting a running back? Jeremy Layton (@JeremyLayt0n) and Dave Kluge (@DaveKluge_FF) discuss that, and much more, on the latest episode of Deep Sleepers

Jacob Infante (@jacobinfante24) joins Jeremy Layton (@jeremylayt0n) to do a full first-round mock draft – featuring trades. Where do Mac Jones and Justin Fields end up? Will the Packers and Ravens add wide receivers? All that and more in this week's episode of Deep Sleepers.

    The Fantasy Baseball Episode (Baseball? What?) with Frank Stampfl

    The Fantasy Baseball Episode (Baseball? What?) with Frank Stampfl
    It's the podcast to listen to if you watch BASEBALL with ulterior motives. That's right, baseball. For the first time in the history of the Deep Sleepers Podcast, we are talking fantasy baseball. Jeremy Layton (@JeremyLayt0n) is joined by Fantasy Baseball Today host Frank Stampfl (@Roto_Frank) to help convince football fans to give a different fantasy sport a try.

    First, they discuss the most optimal format for fantasy baseball, before diving into some of the top targets in the 2021 season. Who should you draft first overall? Who is undervalued? (Giancarlo Stanton.) Who is overvalued? (Nolan Arenado.) Then, they get into some sleepers and league winners later in the draft, before Frank explains why he doesn't like Seinfeld.

    Free Agency Fantasy Fallout with Scott Simpson
    Scott Simpson (@NimblewNumbers) joins host Jeremy Layton (@JeremyLayt0n) to discuss the first wave of free agency signings, and how they will impact the 2021 fantasy football season. With Aaron Jones returning to Green Bay, what does that mean for AJ Dillon? What should we expect from Corey Davis with the Jets and Marvin Jones with the Jaguars? How do Ryan Fitzpatrick and Jameis Winston affect the Washington and New Orleans pass-catchers? Is there a reason Kliff Kingsbury, who had a losing record in college with Patrick Mahomes, is an NFL coach other than the fact that he's hot? All that and more in this week's Deep Sleepers Podcast.

    The Dynasty Episode with Stephie Smalls

    The Dynasty Episode with Stephie Smalls
    Jeremy Layton (@jeremylayt0n) is joined by FTN Network's Stephie Smalls (@stephiesmallls) for an episode entirely dedicated to dynasty fantasy football. Jeremy starts the show by holding Stephie's feet to the fire on a couple of questionable draft picks in their league, and they discuss the dynasty value of Jonathan Taylor, Derrick Henry, Cole Kmet and AJ Dillon. Then they name some fantasy buys (Rashaad Penny? Courtland Sutton) and sells (DK Metcalf, DJ Chark). Finally, they analyze the incoming rookie class, and why the 1.01 pick in dynasty should maybe be a tight end.

Trevor Lawrence, Zach Wilson, Trey Lance and Mac Jones (garbage can emoji). Then they discuss the skill position players: Najee Harris, Travis Etienne, Ja'marr Chase, Devonta Smith and a fan favorite in Javonte Williams.
