Hi everyone!
3:02
Excited to talk some fantasy football with you all. Before we get started just wanted to mention that you can find me on Twitter @toomuchtuma to reach out anytime to discuss fantasy sports
Anyways onto the questions!
Ryan Jankowitz

Hi Brendan, thanks for hosting this.  What is the earliest you would consider drafting the top 3 TE's (Kelce, Kittle, Waller) in a 12-team, 1/2 PPR re-draft league?
AvatarBrendan Tuma
3:03
I've historically been the type to fade tight ends in the first few rounds, but things are more drastic than ever entering 2021. I don't think it's unreasonable at all to take Kelce in the mid-to-late first, and both Kittle/Waller feel like values in the early-third

Curious as to what Derrick Henry’s Dynasty Value is going forward? Is it time to sell high or hold?
AvatarBrendan Tuma
3:04
I think this depends entirely on your team's competitive cycle. If you are rebuilding then yeah, you'll be able to absolutely cash in on Henry right now. However, if you're contending you'll absolutely want to keep him a part of your core

Is AJ Dillon the real deal?
AvatarBrendan Tuma
3:06
Dillon really lit up the once chance he got, that Week 16 night game against the Titans in the snow. We know that he isn't a pass catcher but he certainly seems "good enough" to be a highly productive fantasy RB playing with one of the greatest quarterbacks ever in an elite offense. The time to buy is now. If Aaron Jones signs elsewhere the Dillon hype/price is going to reach a fever pitch

How high is Hurts ranked now
AvatarBrendan Tuma
3:08
In the latest FantasyPros ECR Hurts comes in at QB16, but I expect that to rise following the Wentz trade. To me, he feels like an upside, late-round QB option in 12-team leagues. We know the rushing is there. If he gets off to a hot start he can become a season-long option.

For reference - here's the latest ECR https://www.fantasypros.com/nfl/rankings/qb-cheatsheets.php

Will the bears now trade Foles back to Philly and get a draft pick I hope so
AvatarBrendan Tuma
3:09
This would be something. It also would've been something if Wentz and Foles were reunited in Chicago

Where are u taking Derrick Henry full ppr?
AvatarBrendan Tuma
3:09
Anywhere in the top-5 sounds right

Dobbins
AvatarBrendan Tuma
3:11
Dobbins is RB15 in 0.5 PPR rankings right now (latest ECR). I love him in the third but am worried the price will rise to the second throughout the offseason. He feels like the perfect RB2 for team constructs right now

Should I draft Josh Allen first in the second round next year. 10 team league
AvatarBrendan Tuma
3:12
Definitely not. The late-round QB strategy has slowly become the mid-round QB strategy over the past couple of seasons, but there's still no need to be that aggressive. If others in your league are, then let them. I'd rather take one of the big-3 TEs if taking a "onesie" position early.
Guest
3:12
better keeper? Dobbins in the 7th or Ridley in the 6th round
AvatarBrendan Tuma
3:13
Those are both fantastic options. I'd lean Ridley since you can still use early picks to smash RBs
Colby Betts

If I need a RB2 (cmc is my rb1) in dynasty and own 1.04 what should I do
AvatarBrendan Tuma
3:13
This is shaping up to be a two-RB draft (Harris and Etienne). Maybe try and trade up for 1.02 if 1.01 gets too pricey

What does the wentz trade mean for hurts owners in a super flex dynasty league
AvatarBrendan Tuma
3:15
This is great news for anyone who rosters Hurts in dynasty. There are some grumblings that Philly might take a QB 6th overall, which means we aren't fully in the clear yet. But assuming they don't then Hurts enters the 2021 NFL season as THE late-round QB to target. So for SuperFlex I'd value him as a low-end QB1

What are your thoughts on AJ Brown
AvatarBrendan Tuma
3:16
An amazing talent who puts up massive numbers with limited volume. If things in Tennessee ever change to the point where he garners Davante Adams-esque targets, he'll be a first-round fantasy selection. I don't think we've seen his ceiling yet.
Braden

12 team dynasty league. single QB start. Someone offered me Brady and the 3.07 for the 2.01. My gut says no but I was worried I was over valuing the pick
AvatarBrendan Tuma
3:17
Single QB dynasty league an aging Brady doesn't move the needle nearly enough to part with 2.01
Guest
3:17
For pot, Derrick Henry or Austin ekler
AvatarBrendan Tuma
3:18
Assuming this meant PPR, it's still DH and it isn't that close

Are you sold on zeke coming back strong this year? Or do the cowboys give pollard some of the workload?
AvatarBrendan Tuma
3:19
I've been surprised at how the fantasy industry still has Zeke as a firm first-round pick. I expected him to be more of a mid-tier second-rounder. Perhaps we'll see that shift throughout the offseason. His contract means the volume will still be there, but he isn't nearly as safe as he has seemed in recent years

I have no idea why that just sent as “I’m trying to build on my roster”. I’m looking to do so but I’ve got Lamar at QB, Akers and Montgomery (Drake - Bnch), Amari, AJ, and Terry at WR, Thomas and Kelce at TE. Is it time to start parting ways to try and acquire picks? This was a championship winning team this past year for reference.
AvatarBrendan Tuma
3:21
If you won the championship last year then there's no need to start acquiring picks. I mean, you can always try to acquire picks with non-core pieces like Drake. It's easier said than done but in dynasty leagues if you're always playing for tomorrow then you're never really in a position to go full rebuild
cool 1

I have Kyler, Barkley, dobbins, juju, dj Moore, fuller, hunter Henry and Dallas goedert as my core...who should I target at 1.06 dynasty rookie draft?
AvatarBrendan Tuma
3:22
Tough to say for certain until we see landing spots of course, but I wouldn't let your current roster dictate what position you target. 1.06 is tough as it's just outside Harris, Etienne, Smith, Chase, Waddle.

Devils advocate take: how do we feel about Montgomery repeating as a top 12 back in PPR (not top 4), based on volume and talent. Obviously had the easy schedule but the eye test made it seem like he turned a legit corner?
