Summary

Andy Behrens is joined by The Action Network’s Chris Raybon to talk all things football and fantasy on this latest episode. Chris and Andy kick off things with a few rules for fantasy managers and sports betters alike considering this absolutely crazy year in which there will be no pre-season and less practice than previous summers. (1:55)The guys chat about a superflex draft they’re preparing for later in the day and go over some best practices with drafting QBs in those leagues where you starting two passers is necessary. Is it worth it to reach for a Lamar or a Mahomes, or should you focus on some mid-tier guys like Burrow, Jones, Wentz or Goff? (8:25)The topic of the number one overall pick comes to light and it might sound like a crazy question, but maybe it isn’t: is there any situation in which you should take Saquon over Christian McCaffrey at #1? (17:00)Houston WR Will Fuller sparks a strategy debate: is it worth it to go high-floor or for boom-or-bust candidates only after the sixth or seventh round? (21:50)Finally, the guys wrap up the show going to hot-take city and throw some dirt on a future hall of famer and a recent fantasy stud. Yes, Andy and Chris will tell you why Aaron Rodgers is washed and why Josh Allen is trash.

I am your host for this day, Andy Barron's, pleased to be joined by Chris Raybon.

0:15.0

This is actually, I was thinking about it right after I asked you to be on the show, Chris.

0:20.0

I don't think that we've had like an

0:22.7

in-person conversation that wasn't like super shouty and at a bar late at night so we'll see

0:29.6

how this goes when we're both lucid and theoretically have it together Chris if you don't

0:35.6

know is at Chris Ray Bonn Twitter. You may know him as an

0:39.2

analyst and an editor at Action Network. He's the co-host of the Action Network Sports Betting

0:43.4

podcast, which is an award-winning show. It's a weekend host on Sirius XM. And he is one of the

0:49.4

most accurate fantasy football rankers in our entire racket. I believe he's got a

0:54.0

trophy there on

0:55.2

the shelf behind him for his rankings accuracy. What's up, Chris? What's going on, Andy? I don't

1:00.5

think you're the first person to tell me that about the never having a conversation outside a

1:05.3

kind of hazy bar late at night, but, you know, we're changing that now, and I'm excited to

1:10.7

talk to you about some fantasy. I feel like it's really your night, but, you know, we're changing that now, and I'm excited to, uh, to talk to you

1:11.6

about some fantasy. I feel like it's really your element. Like, you're good by day, but man,

1:17.6

if you catch Raybon at like midnight, a few drinks in, like the hot takes, which are normally

1:24.4

pretty spicy, just they really come out.

1:32.0

Oh, yeah. You know, I come alive in the nighttime, but we're recording this. What is it?

1:42.6

Like noon? So we'll see how this goes. I might be. Yeah, I don't know. I've never experienced you in the light of day, I don't think. And I've certainly never experienced you at noon. So we'll see how it goes.
