Now is the time to look forward, because the fantasy playoffs are just on the horizon! Now is the time to reevaluate your roster (what will Tyler Boyd be sans A.J. Green?), to make peace — or war — with injured stars (Dalvin Cook is back...and resting on his bye), and to take note of the players who are tied to your playoff hopes.Yes, our experts asked you to list the players you believe will spell your fantasy success or your fantasy doom come playoff time — no pressure, Aaron Jones.Along with that roster rundown, our experts also break down all the biggest Week 10 happenings. Among these of course is the return of Dez Bryant, who has now joined the Saints' already-elite offense (4:30).Our experts then share some fantasy assets that you should be trying to buy and/or sell before your league's trade deadline. Hint: start talking to your league's David Johnson-owner (9:30).Of course, we can’t forget about Andy and Brad going at it over their Week 10 rankings (22:45), and Nick Mullens is causing some chaos among them!Liz and Dalton then wrap up with a couple bargains and fades for Yahoo Daily Fantasy (32:45).Remember to rate, review and subscribe on your podcast provider of choice and send us your questions for future episodes on Twitter @YahooFantasy.Follow Liz: @LizLoza_FFFollow Dalton: @DaltondeldonFollow Brad: @YahooNoiseFollow Andy: @Andybehrens See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

0:00.0	Hello and welcome to the Yahoo Sports Fantasy podcast.
0:07.1	I am Liz Loza and I am welcoming back, Dalton, Del Don.
0:13.0	Dalton, you witness the start of the Nick Mullins era.
0:18.7	You got to still be floating on Cloud 9, right?
0:20.9	Hello, Liz. It's good to be back. Yes, what a scene that was. I was actually sitting in
0:25.7	between two Raider fans. Not only Raider, I mean, my friends, I took to the game with me, but not
0:31.4	only that, they talked themselves into picking them in Survivor, just because they happened to be
0:35.7	there, just totally dumb. What a disaster that was if you're a Raider fan.
0:39.4	On the other side, yeah, Nick Mullins, pretty fun. I mean, just a fun kid to root for, studied hard and all the interviews afterward and stuff.
0:45.8	So yeah, pretty exciting. And now actually, the NFL and their wisdom, they love to schedule these NFL teams and back-to-back primetime spots. The only games I'm going to this year happen to be the Thursday night or Monday night game.
0:56.6	So I'll be there again and see him against the Giants this week.
0:59.2	So we'll see if he goes back and turns into a pumpkin right away or not.
1:02.1	Are you thinking that Mullins is going to fare well against those giants who are having a fire sale, particularly on defense?
1:10.1	Yeah, it's another good spot. And Mullins is known,
1:12.3	I guess he studies like crazy even. They say that he knows a playbook even more than Shanahan.
1:16.5	It doesn't have the greatest arm, and obviously there's more film on him. But I think this
1:20.9	matchup is okay, and Shanahan will probably scheme him to get his players in the right position.
1:24.7	I mean, George Kittles dominating no matter who's throwing to him and Marquis Goodwin looks healthy. So I don't know. I kind of like Mullins as a
1:31.5	two QB kind of a streamer type moving forward. I could see it given that system. Well, there are
1:36.8	four teams on by, so it's not the craziest of thoughts. And another thing about Mullins, he is a
1:42.2	coach's kid. So he's used to studying.
1:45.6	All positive things, all his teammates and all his coaches just have great things to say about it.
