Summary

Bid on our Draft-A-Thon items right now to benefit St. Jude! http://cbssports.com/ebay

A lot of disagreement on today's show as Dave and Heath present their 2021 busts. The guys start about by debating Adam Thielen (2:10), Kyle Pitts (7:30) and Brandin Cooks (12:45). Should Cooks be a Top 100 pick? Does Thielen have more bust potential than any other Top 60 player? ... Yes it is a bust show, but we will also be optimists today and talk about some players who could reach new heights in 2021 (18:00). Then we've got your news and notes (21:45) including the latest on the Dolphins backfield and why Adam Trautman is moving down in the rankings. Oh, and we've got another Arnold Schwarzenegger Challenge with an audio submission this time (29:05)! ... Back to the busts, let's talk about which QBs are being drafted too early (30:45). We've got the 2020 NFL MVP and Rookie of the Year. Also Josh Jacobs (42:40), Leonard Fournette (47:40) and D.J. Chark (49:15) ... your emails at fantasyfootball@cbsi.com
