Jonny and Clyde (guest: Shawn Siegele)
With NFL training camps opening in full this week, RotoViz co-owner and Zero-RB innovator Shawn Siegele (@FF_Contrarian) joins host Pat Fitzmaurice (@Fitz_FF) to cover a wide array of fantasy topics. Is Jonathan Taylor ready to become a fantasy ultra-back? Shawn offers compelling reasons to take Taylor in the middle of the first round. Although he wasn’t pleased that his Chiefs drafted Clyde Edwards-Helaire over Taylor, Shawn lays out a scenario where CEH could gain significant fantasy value in 2021 and also expresses enthusiasm for J.K. Dobbins, Antonio Gibson and D’Andre Swift. Shawn talks about his new podcast with RotoViz alumnus Ben Gretch and offers some thoughts on polarizing tennis star Novak Djokovic. In his Scott Fish Bowl draft, Shawn took Cam Akers late in the third round and didn’t take another RB until the 15th round. The six running backs he took in the last eight rounds are among his favorite Zero-RB targets. Find out which cheap RBs he went after. Shawn also explains why he’s high on Logan Thomas and discusses his Tyler Boyd and Henry Ruggs selections. Shawn and Pat talk about the fallout from the Akers injury and discuss possible ripple effects of the Michael Thomas injury. Do you believe the WR position is deep? Shawn and Pat believe that’s a fallacy and offer reasons why. There’s also some talk about whether any of the Chiefs’ WRs other than Tyreek Hill offer compelling fantasy potential.
