Rotoworld Football Podcast

John Daigle, Pat Daugherty and Denny Carter join Matt Stroup to look at some of the outliers in our individual rankings, including why Pat is slightly lower on Matt Ryan than most — and what it could mean for Ryan's fantasy outlook in 2021. Plus, the huge chasm in Daigle and Denny's rankings of Trey Lance, and some drastically different opinions on Chase Claypool coming off his 11-touchdown rookie campaign. We also look at some positive reports on the fast-rising Cam Akers, and injury news we potentially shouldn't ignore when it comes to Amari Cooper and Calvin Ridley.

Pat Daugherty and Denny Carter join Matt Stroup to take a look at the landscape of NFL coaches — and what it means for fantasy football — ranking the best and the worst the league has to offer. We consider whether Sean Payton can salvage a season where there are already questions about Jameis Winston's connection with Michael Thomas, why Sean McVay is ranked ahead of Kyle Shanahan, and whether we can trust Kliff Kingsbury to get the most out of Kyler Murray and DeAndre Hopkins in 2021. Also: a look at some of Urban Meyer's strange decisions, and why Travis Etienne is still an intriguing name heading into summer fantasy drafts.

Plus, DJ Moore is flashing star potential, Amari Cooper could finally have a ceiling season, and Kyle Pitts is set up for success in a post- (we think) Julio Jones Atlanta — but is his ADP already too high?

With the official release of the NFL schedule on Wednesday evening, John Daigle, Pat Daugherty, Denny Carter and Matt Stroup go game-by-game with a way-too-early look at what to expect from Week 1 of the 2021 season. Ranking each game 1-16, we hit many of the high points, including Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs with a point to prove against the Browns, and Dak Prescott in a tough opener against Tom Brady and the Bucs. We also dive into the uglier spots on the Week 1 slate, with Giants-Broncos and Jaguars-Texans among them. Also on this episode: massive question marks at quarterback when the Saints and Packers face off (Aaron Rodgers or Jordan Love? Jameis Winston or Taysom Hill?), and a potentially brutal Raiders team gets a scary Week 1 draw in John Harbaugh, Lamar Jackson and the Ravens. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
