Dynasty Dummies Podcast

There are a lot of brilliant people in the fantasy football space. Whether it be with numbers, charting routes, or delving into game theory, analysts are leaving no stone unturned when it comes to gaining an advantage. But sometimes, Occam has the answer. Join JMic and Zac this week as they simply slow things down.

The Dummies are joined by Leo Paciga (@Ciga_ff), Professor Emeritus of DLF and a man more synonymous with notebooks than Ryan Gosling to discuss startups, strategies, and why following the crowd isn't always the way to win. Decision making is critical, and listening to this episode is your next great decision.

Inspired by JMic, Zac tries his hand at indentifying what makes a good draft class from afar, and what happens when we look too closely at an underwhelming incoming group. 

It's a Special Saturday Solo edition of the Dynasty Dummies podcast, dedicated to the best thing in fantasy football, The Scott Fish Bowl. Zac takes you through the ins-and-outs of #SFB12, why you're seeing the hashtag all around Twitter, and why you should get involved and be part of the festivities as well.

JMIc and Zac are back again, bringing you high level insight and granular feedback for your dynasty team... whether you're in a league full of experts or your just a bunch of Dummies like us, you're in the right spot. Let's grow together.

JMic and Zac are back together again for a little post-NFL Draft (hopefully) pre-Your rookie draft discussion of the 2022 Class.

The Dynasty Communty is a ferocious bunch, many already to tear through their rookie drafts on the Monday after the NFL Draft. With that in mind, Zac runs through three rounds of his superflex rookie rankings today so you can be prepared to make your pick tomorrow.

Sometimes you need to stop and remember where you've been to understand where you need to go. JMic and Zac take a look at the current state of the Dynasty Community, where they come from, and where the Dynasty Dummies podcast is headed. Hopefully you'll join us on the ride. It's going to be a lot of fun.

It's Episode 222, which makes a 2022 SuperFlex Rookie Mock Draft too perfect. JMic, Matt Foreman and Zac are joined by Chris Moxley of Campus2Canton and the Devy Debate, Scouting Assistant to the Shrine Bowl Riley Bymaster, and all around metrics fiend and Dynasty Crossroads host Peter Howard for a blind choice round robin rookie mock. What could possibly go wrong?

The Hootenanny is over. Matt is on vacation. The cupboard is bare except for JMic and Zac, who are here to bring you whatever is on their minds and help you out with your dynasty problems great and small.

It's (perhaps) the final installment of the 2022 Dynasty Dummies Rookie Hootenanny. JMic, Matt and Zac are back to catch the rest of the wide receiver class. On the docket are Justyn Ross, Romeo Doubs, Erik Ezukanma, Christian Watson, and Calvin Austin.

JMic, Matt, and Zac are back for a catch-all running back show featuring listener suggestions of players we may have missed. The guys talk through Tyler Badie, Abram Smith, Keaontay Ingram, Kevin Harris, Sincere McCormick, Jerrion Ealy, and ZaQuandre White on this episode of the Dynasty Dummies Rookie Hootenanny.

The Dummies are back with the two most difficult positions to evaluate! It's time to dance with the QB who brung you and almost the Tight End of the 2022 Rookie Hootenanny. JMic, Matt and Zac tackle Matt Corral, Malik Willis, Kenny Pickett, Sam Howell, Trey McBride, Jalen Wydermyer, Isaiah Likely, Charlie Kolar, and DFPN Etwork family favorite, Jeremy Ruckert. We'll be back next week with the catchall rookie show! Tune in, subcribe, rate, review, and give Matt a hug.

It's the second six rookie wide receivers this week on the Dynasty Dummies Hootenanny! JMic, Matt, and Zac take you through George Pickens, Jahan Dotson, Wan'Dale Robinson, Skyy Moore, John Metchie III, and Jalen Tolbert. Be sure to catch it... Be sure to catch it. (Dotson! We've got Dotson here! See, no one cares)

The year may have changed, but the goal remains the same: To offer questions and perspective to get your wheels turning. #FifteenAndOut rolls on and, for a change of pace, I brought some of my @DFPNetwork brethren with me! Let's gooooo!

JMic, Matt and Zac are back and standing at the top of the mountain of 2022 wide receivers. The boys break down Treylon Burks, Garrett Wilson, Drake London, Jameson Williams, Chris Olave and David Bell. Enjoy the Hootenanny!

It's part two of the Dynasty Dummies 2022 Rookie Hootenanny with @JMicCheck @FattMoreman and @tacitassassin13. They take you through the "next" 6 running backs in the class, touching on Brian Robinson, Jerome Ford, Zamir White, James Cook, Dameon Pierce and Pierre Strong.

The Dummies are back! And the 2022 Rookie Hootenanny is in full swing with the top 6 running backs as the topic du jour. Matt Foreman, JMic, and Zac have watched the film, and hit the highs and lows of Breece Hall, Isaiah Spiller, Kenneth Walker III, Kyren Williams, Rachaad White, and Tyler Allgeier.  Dig in with the Dummies! @FattMoreman @JMicCheck & @tacitassassin13

The Dummies are back!! (Well, at least Zac is.) He takes you on a film scouting primer in preparation for the start of 2022 Rookie Season and the Dummies Rookie Hootenanny that begins this week. Enjoy the look behind the scenes and join @tacitassassin13, @JMicCheck and @FattMorman on our series of rookie evaluation shows starting this week. 

"For it's 1, 2, 3, Goal Line Stuffs and we're all TILTING!" We want better for you, JT! So much happened in week 2 and there's little time to do it. Let's hit the #DummyBlitz! #FifteenAndOut

Here's part two of week one! Let's talk about it... #FifteenAndOut

So much action happened in week one that we had to break it up in two parts. #FifteenAndOut goes with a two-parter to start the year. Here's Part One... Let's Goooooo!

The Dynasty Dummies Edge Finders series is back and Nash's Equilibrium suggests that since you're here, you might as well listen to Zac talk Game Theory, player values, and salary cap strategy with John Bosch. @JohnBoschFF If you want to win the game, learn from the master.

Albeit from an unfamiliar seat, JMic joins the Dynasty Dummies this week for the third installment in the Edge Finders series. Zac takes over hosting duties and takes us all through the process that led to multiple championships, perennial contenders, and the illustrious 2021 JMic Invitational. Sit back, enjoy, and ask yourself, "What is the intention of your team?"

Whether you know him as an Addict, an Outhouse, or as one of the nicest human beings in fantasy football, you definitely know Russ Fisher. This week, @DynastyOuthouse joins Zac in the second installment of the Edge Finders series to talk all things trading. When you don't know the answer to a question, you ask someone who does- and Russ knows trades. Jerricho Cotchery, Jerricho Cotchery, Jerricho Cotchery

A chicken, a crow, and a dodo walk into a podcast... This week, the inimitable Peter Howard joins Zac to talk through how he gains edges on the dynasty community. From rookie evaluations to identifying just what the community keeps getting wrong, Peter points us all in the right direction in the first episode in a series of Edge Finders.

Injuries suck. Jumping to conclusions about injuries also sucks. Zac tries to mitigate both while navigating the sticky situation that is the Rams backfield and the ZeroRB Zeitgeist. (Oh, and a back that is going outside of the top 25 who just might win your league.)

With #SFB11 a week away, Zac jumps on to give you a primer of the main event, the festivities that surround this amazing charity tournament, what to do if you didn't get an invite this year, and a few places that you can go to hone your #SFB11 skills. Put on your Rotowear, jump on TheFootballWorkshop.com, and enjoy the show.

This week on the Dynasty Dummies podcast, JMic and Zac run down through the points of interest in the 2021 rookie class, including why you should overpay for Kyle Pitts, why Travis Etienne has the highest upside of any back in this class, and absolutely no Tre McKitty talk. All this and more is the Dynasty Dummies Podcast

Day Two is done. Only Day Three remains. So many names still not drafted, but we saw several players find landing spots that offer immediate impact. Let's unmuddle this mess. Yes, I made up the word "unmuddle"... Let's Blitz! #FifteenAndOut

The 2021 NFL Draft brought us happiness, tears, rage, and confusion... and it's only been one round. Lucky for you, the #DummyBlitz is back to help you process what we've witnessed. If you're ready, I'm ready... Let's Blitz! #FifteenAndOutPlusOT

This week, JMic and Zac tackle the 2021 quarterback class and tack on tight ends for good measure.

One play. Three leagues. And a whole lot of perspective this week from @tacitassassin13. Whether your championships broke the way you wanted to or not, there's reason to be thankful and look ahead to the next season. It's a non-linear episode for sure.

Just a little snippet from past Festivus episodes from Kevin, Sal and the guy who sits in the Podathon Chair to help get you primed for next week's annual event!   Make sure to get your submissions in ASAP by sending them to fantasyfootballfunhouse@gmail.com!  

It's Week 13. Golladay is out again. Your playoff matchups are locked in. You're beyond help now. This week, Zac is looking toward next year and the process for future success.

Don't be a dick

While everyone screams at ESPN over Taysom Hill's tight end designation, Zac takes advantage of the distraction and points you in the direction of some forgotten gems. 

this isn't actually about fantasy football. this is about me and what fantasy football means to me. and what the community at large means to me. i hope you still listen and i hope you can get something out of it.  thanks.

Take the bait, use the bait, trust the bait, teach others about the bait.

There has been a big push from some people in the community for transparency, comparing of winnings/bankroll, and even phallic measuring among analysts. In order to back up his claims of being a Top Five Analyst*, this week Zac goes over his record of hits and misses over the last four years as an analyst.                      *in song form

I was fed up with Michael Thomas so I got him off my team and I wanted to tell you about it.

This past weekend, we lost a loved one in the Fantasy Football Community. James Koutoulas, aka James the Brain (@_JamesTheBrain on Twitter) passed away Saturday, September 19th. If you knew him or interacted with him, you knew he was a dope dude. His kindness and passion for this game and his loved ones was truly remarkable. At the beginning of this episode, we honor James and his family, then dive into the comings and goings of Week 2.  Follow us on Twitter at: - @DFPNetwork - @DynastyDummies - @FFFunhouse - @DummyScoutBrief - #SplitTakesShow - @klabreck - @tacitassassin13 - @DTC_RileyB - @FattMoreman - @KevinCutillo - @SalLetoFF - @SidSkeat - @FFTraderJoe - @DynastyOuthouse - @JMicCheck
