Summary

If you had the chance to start your fantasy football season from scratch — to draft once again — who would you take in the first round? How would a fantasy draft end up looking today?Are you still going with Todd Gurley at number one overall? Does Patrick Mahomes belong anywhere close to the first round?Since we've gone a quarter-way through the NFL season and about a third of the way through the Fantasy regular season, Yahoo experts Liz Loza and Dalton Del Don decided to think about what the top of a fantasy draft would look like now that we've reached Week 5. They discuss this list and more on the latest episode, which includes matchups to look out for in Week 5, a special edition of "Fantasy Court" with judge Andy Behrens, "This Week in Fantasy History," and a few bargain plays and fades for Daily Fantasy.Follow Liz: @LizLoza_FFFollow Dalton: @Daltondeldon See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Hello and welcome to the Yahoo Sports Fantasy podcast. I'm Liz Loza. And guess what? Dalton is back. Say hello,

0:09.7

Dalton. Hello, Liz. How's it going? We got some cool new podcast equipment. I'm excited to be back,

0:15.1

although obviously I've been very depressed in the meantime, sad that Jimmy G went down.

0:19.6

And yeah, it's been a tough week,

0:22.5

but very happy to be back. You're muscling through it. Hey, producer Brett, have we gotten that

0:26.0

pour one out sound effect yet? Is that a pour one out? Or did Dalton just use the facilities with his

0:35.2

mic on? I tried to find one that.

0:49.8

I tried to find a cue that sounded like liquid pouring onto cement or asphalt, and I couldn't find one in the Yahoo Sports giant gigabytes, terabyte size library of sound effects.

0:53.2

So maybe I'll go out and pour one out on cement and make one myself.

0:55.4

But yeah, it sounds a little bit like that.

0:55.8

I'm sorry.

0:59.3

It sounds like maybe a tailgate at Orchard Park before a Bill's game.

1:00.2

Indeed.

1:01.7

All right.

1:10.2

So Dalton, nobody at Santa Clarita or Santa Clara rather, would ever deign to participate in that sort of behavior. y'all chardonnay sipping preppies.

1:13.8

So I have to know, then, are you also loving the Iowin, C.J. Bethard and raising a glass of the best Oak Age Chardonnay to him.

1:24.6

Well, I can't claim him. That's Andy Barron's guy, clearly. But, you know, he proved to be

1:28.4

not as incompetent as before. That year, he got battered last year as a rookie. Clearly, he wasn't

1:33.4

ready, but, you know, he has some familiarity with Shanahan's system. So he might, at minimum,

1:38.7

might not be a total disaster. And at least that's something. Well, Dalton, I'm glad you have a little something to hold on to because hope is important.

1:45.9

And not all fantasy players have that hope.
