Summary
Most of our fantasy football drafts are over, and now it's time to think about what the heck our teams will look like in Week 1. On today's show we'll isolate a few situations worth tracking, because a lingering injury might mean a player you drafted to be a starter *won't* play in Week 1, and we'll have some waiver suggestions in such cases. Largely, though, we'll advise you to play your guys and not worry too much about matchups opening weekend! Guest: Brandon Funston of The Athletic.

| 1:19.7 | no longer applies no longer matters the NFL reinvents itself every year a whole lot of |
