Summary

Marcas Grant is joined by the all-in kid Jake Ciely of The Athletic to talk about a litany of fantasy offseason topics. First, the hosts discuss the fantasy outlook for the Houston Texans after the signing of running back Rex Burkhead (2:28). Then, Marcas and Jake go back and forth wondering which offense will be worse between the Texans and the Detroit Lions (7:36). Next, the pair theorizes on how a 17th game will affect the fantasy season and, particularly, the running back position (8:57). After that, Marcas hits Jake with a series of “fantasy Rorschach tests” covering wide receiver Julio Jones, Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon, Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins, Ravens receiver Rashod Bateman, Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, and Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (14:09). Finally, the duo wraps things up with some rapid fire questions about the New York Mets, Jake’s updated cereal rankings, and lots of thoughts about television (39:50).

reason i thought jake was canadian is Virginian, which is very different. I'm not that close to the border even. Actually, it was you and Graham when we met up at the Combine. We're like, I thought you were Canadian. I don't know. I hang out with Chris Meaney too much. He's enjoying hockey. Things are good, man. You know, football, I'm in the middle of my breakout players for 2021, which just kind of feels like Juneish is, you know, we're not really there in draft season yet. Although you and I are probably in some drafts so far. But, you know, it's that feeling of it's getting close. It's getting close. And that's all it matters. I believe today, here we are on June 1st. Is it 100 days? 100 days. Yeah, I think we're 100 days from the start of the season. There we go. So the countdown is on.

these guys as well. I did want to start, though. I had held this section for news.
