In the Loop

This week former Eagles employee, Joe Dolan starts the show with a tribute to Jim Johnson. Then, they guys look at the NFC Training Camps. Lots of compelling stories including teams in transition, high-powered offenses, and a few new Super Bowl contenders. The NFC is chock full of intrigue, and you are in the right place to hear all about it...In the Loop.

As we get that much closer to football, the guys preview the AFC Training Camps. They'll look at position battles, coaching changes, injury situations, and just how it all relates to fantasy. Plus, your emails about PPR players and the possibility of Calvin Johnson as the #1 overall receiver. Check it all out when we go "In the Loop".

Lots of big news has gone down in the past week, so the guys examine it from a fantasy perspective. How are Joe Flacco and Mark Clayton affected by the retirement of Derrick Mason? Do the Ravens now have a major sleeper on their hands in Demetrius Williams? Matt Cassel got paid, but does that mean he can be trusted after just one good year? What does the iffy QB situation in Tampa Bay mean for Antonio Bryant, Michael Clayton, and Kellen Winslow? Plus in our first questions segment, we look at the strategy of drafting WR/WR at the turn of a Non-PPR league. Check out the show and be sure to send your questions and feedback to intheloopradio@gmail.com!UPDATE - BlogTalk cut us off for some reason. You only missed the last minute, but make sure you email us if you have any questions...Thanks for listening!

On this week's show, the guys tell you where to look to find the next Pierre Thomas or Steve Slaton. That's right, we are checking out backups. Although they are easy to overlook and dismiss, backups can become important on the waiver wire, and may mean the difference between the your Super Bowl or the Toilet Bowl. Don't miss this in depth look at some backups that could be playing a prominent role at some point this season.

With lots of WRs in the news, the guys look at the impact of the Brandon Marshall Saga, and how that changes the value of Eddie Royal and Kyle Orton. They also examine Braylon Edwards, and why he could fly under the radar to be a steal in your draft. Plus, the Mike Walker lovefest continues with Dennis Northcutt being traded to Detroit. Finally, the guys just check in around the league and give their random thoughts on a few divisions. Check it all out when we go "In the Loop".

One of the longest running theories in fantasy football is that of the 3rd year breakout WR. This week the guys look at players that fit that mold, but also look at second-year wideouts that could also have success in 2009. It's another article preview show on "In the Loop", so expect plenty of knowledge to be dropped.

Players in their contract year tend to "rededicate themselves", enter camp "in the best shape of their career", and always seem to be "motivated". Translation: They want to get paid. In this week's show, Camp & Dolan preview their Contract Year article by taking a look at some guys that have expiring deals in 2009, and just what those guys are gonna do to cash in. Tonight at 8, find out why it's all about the monaaaay.

In their first episode live from the FantasyGuru.com studios, the guys discuss the effects of Brian Westbrook's injury, both from a personnel and fantasy standpoint. They'll also talk about why the Texans need to get Owen Daniels under contract and back on the practice field. Finally, in another column preview, find out just who is PPR GOLD. The audio quality is better, but the air conditioning is not. Either way, you are still "In the Loop". (UPDATE: Apologies for the extended music, I promise there is a show right after it...SECOND UPDATE: I am aware that some audio bled through because the microphone was unmuted during the broadcast of the taped show. That problem will not happen again, and we apologize as we are still working out the kinks with the new format.)

Last week it was undervalues. This week is overvalues. We take a look a guys that are going too high in drafts right now, and just why you shouldn't be giving them such respect. Whether they be top-flight guys on the decline or one-year wonders that can't repeat their success, overvalued picks can ruin a draft. Let Camp and Dolan help you avoid such blunders on your draft day. All that and your calls, on the show with one of the fastest growing listenerships on blogtalkradio, "In the Loop" tonight at 8.

As they put the finishing touches on this year's FantasyGuru.com Magazine, Camp and Dolan look at some of the undervalued players that you'll find in your draft. They'll tell you what rounds to look for them, why they are there, and just what makes them a value selection. They'll also do their usual run around the nuggets of the league. All that and your calls at 8 when we go "In the Loop".
