Welcome to Fantasy Football Today Dynasty. I am your host, Heath Cummings, and we are joined today by a new friend of this show, an old friend here at CBS. It's Ben Gretch. Gretch, I am so happy to have you on. I'm so looking forward to talking to you.

What's been going on? I've been, you know, doing my own thing. I have a Substack newsletter,

stealing signals. You can find it at Ben Gresh.sopac.com. It is a premium newsletter. Cost

a little money to sign up for.

But yeah, I write right there now and do some podcasting. And always love to get back on with you.

I was on with Adam and Dave and Jamie a week or two ago.

That was an absolute blast.

Always great to get back on and talk with you guys.

You've been on a few times. and we talked about this before the show.

It's like they like to schedule you on the days that I'm not going to be there for something. I don't know if Adam just can't handle both of us at the same time again. That was too much for him, but I'm glad that we are getting to talk here. And I'm not going to say I'm glad that Adam's not a part of it.

But I'm glad that we're getting ready to talk here. On today's show, we are going to talk more free agent reactions. I was putting this together yesterday. And I was like, okay, we didn't talk about Derek Henriette or Aaron Jones. But the wide receiver was a little light. That changed last night. We've got Marquis Brown news. We've got Keenan Allen news.

Nobody expected that, at least not after Mike Williams was cut. We will talk about Ben's rookie evaluation philosophy, and I've got at least one email. I may try to sneak a second in.

Ben, we start every show with three questions for our guest. The first question is the same for every guest.

What is your one non-negotiable rule or setting for a dynasty league? And you're not allowed to say

superflex. Oh, that's a good one. I will say, I mean, it's a little unfair for the non-negotiable thing, but the first thing that comes to

mind is, I'll say, best ball. I think it's a really good fit with Dynasty. I love the off-season

element of Dynasty, but in season, I'm playing a lot of redraft leagues in some of the higher

stakes contests as well, and I don't like setting my teams and dealing with trades and all of that

stuff in Dynasty in season as much. So I've really, really loved the best ball ones that I've

started and been a part of in these last like five years. It's, I think, the best way to play

dynasty personally. I think it's particularly popular amongst people who do this for a living

because you're right we get to tuesday or wednesday night and there's 23 teams that i need to go
