| 0:00.0 | Welcome, everyone to the score fantasy football podcast. I'm your host, Justin Boone, |
| 0:19.0 | the lead fantasy analyst at The Score. Thank you so much for checking out the show today. This is going to be a continuation of Monday's episode or maybe a part two if you want to call it that, however you want to look at it. In the first half, we went over the biggest offseason risers and fallers for every AFC team. I talked through all my thoughts on them, just getting you caught up on some of the |
| 0:38.0 | changing fantasy values. And now today, we're going to do the same, but we're going to do it for every NFC squad. So let's get right to it here. We'll begin with the Cardinals. And who else could be the biggest riser in Arizona, but Kyler Murray, the team goes out. They address the receiver core. they add the best wide receiver prospect to come out in at least a few years. |
| 0:56.9 | Marvin Harrison Jr., the fourth overall pick. So now he's joining tight end Trey McBride, who really broke out last year. He was one of Murray's favorite targets for sure. The card's also added Zay Jones, who's a competent veteran. He could emerge as the number two potentially, but he'll be battling with Michael Wilson, who flashed a little bit last year, and Greg Dorsch, who always seems to be flirting with being a fantasy option, he just needs to earn himself a starting spot. The talent does seem to be there, though. So this is a much better group that Murray's had recently, and even so, he was still the QB9 in fantasy points per game last year. He missed half the season, came back from injury. And once he was back, he was right into being a solid QB1 for fantasy. And that's what really he's always been. He was a low-end QB-1 as a rookie. Then he had a couple years as a top five fantasy guy. |
| 2:01.6 | And then before the injury in 2022, he was the QB-8. And then, like I said, QB-9 last year once he returned. So now we're upgrading his weapons. We're giving him a true number one wide-out in Harrison, which means we could see Murray challenge for a spot in the top five. So he's an obvious winner this off-season. I like the Cardinals offense. So I don't really think anyone's a massive faller. Trey McBride does take a |
| 2:06.7 | small hit because Harrison comes in and he could be a potential volume hog. And really, McBride didn't |
| 2:12.3 | have any major receivers to contend with last year. So he's still going to be a good fantasy option. |
| 2:17.0 | He's still going to be a high end tight end one's still going to be a high-end tight-end one. |
| 2:37.6 | I just doubt we're going to see him push for tight-end one overall numbers. He might have actually had a chance at that if the team didn't bring in a star receiver, which they did. So for the faller, I'm going to go with James Connor. And I hate to do it because I always feel like Connor's so undervalued. He's been a top 10 fantasy running back on a per game basis each of the last three years, |
| 2:39.3 | but he's 29 years old. |
| 2:42.3 | He's missed four games each of the last two seasons. |
| 2:46.3 | And now the Cardinals have drafted his replacement in Trey Benson, and they did that at the top of the third round. |
| 2:47.6 | So we're at a point where another injury could open the door for Benson to |
| 2:51.9 | take over and maybe to send Connor to the bench for good. And there really just hasn't been that |
| 2:57.2 | kind of back in Arizona lately. Now there is. So Connor, a riskier fantasy asset. And if he starts |
| 3:04.0 | the season strong, I would be trading him away if you have them because it feels like it's only a matter of time before Benson emerges as the starter. |
| 3:11.6 | On to the Falcons next. |
| 3:12.7 | And this is an easy one. |
| 3:14.5 | Almost everybody's a riser. |
| 3:16.1 | Drake London, Kyle Pitts, Bejohn Robinson. |
| 3:19.0 | Even Darno Mooney can get in on this because Atlanta finally has a quarterback. |
| 3:23.1 | And you can't undersell the difference |
