The topics that are the most useful to you, our SuperFriends!In this mailbag episode, John and Tommy dig into some listener questions on roster construction and management. The guys tackle a SuperFlex Flywheel question about adjusting a roster with an abundance at a particular position, in the context of contending and rebuilding. The discussion ultimately addresses each fantasy position individually; a surplus at RB in a rebuild? A surplus at WR for a contender? Tommy B and the SFD have thoughts! Plus, reloading a contender with rookie pick 1.01, and finding flex-level options in a 16-team league. All that and more on this week's Q & A episode!

It's time for the first major decision of the 2024 season, and the guys are here to help navigate it!Hogue and Tommy B are talking rebuilds this week as the non-point-scoring season kicks off, and this isn't a how-to guide. Well… it isn't JUST a how-to guide! The guys discuss some rebuilding guidelines, but they start with two very important qualifiers: does this roster need to be rebuilt? And what type of rebuild is it? Plus, the guys think through rookie draft picks and when to make the picks vs. when to trade the picks. They even get into trading techniques from a rebuild perspective… and from the perspective of a team that isn't rebuilding trading with a team that is! All that and more on this week's episode!

It's a look-ahead…but-not-too-far-ahead episode!Tommy B is making some 2024 predictions, but not your typical predictions. No rookie landing spots, no free agent signings, no head coaching hires. No, he's targeting the most consequential part of the dynasty calendar: training camp. Rookies are on rosters, and the season-long outlooks begin to take shape, making it the perfect time to detail dynasty rosters.Hogue and Tommy discuss the opportunities created in the summer sun, with a stop at each of the fantasy positions. Which WR will see the greatest value increase between now and August? Hint: his teammates at RB and TE have a chance to increase their values as well, after the QB and head coach are mercifully relieved of their duties. Plus, what is the RB range and profile that rises the most over the non-point-scoring season? Which young TE is a massive dynasty sell (and why does SFD disagree vehemently)? And what is the application for the starting QBs with uninspiring names? Tommy has an inspired QB pairing in dynasty, sure to drive Hogue out of his mind. All that and more, on this week's episode!
