August is upon us, and with the heart of fantasy draft season dead ahead, host Pat Fitzmaurice (@Fitz_FF) welcomes in Scott Pianowski (@scott_pianowski) of Yahoo Fantasy. Scott shares his philosophy on how to value injured players, and he and Pat discuss what to do with Michael Thomas and how to value Jonathan Taylor and other Colts now that Carson Wentz and Quenton Nelson are hurt. In Scott’s world, steady, undervalued, profitable veterans are referred to as Raul Ibanez All-Stars – a hat tip to the ever-reliable MLB slugger. Perhaps the NFL equivalent should be the Robert Woods All-Stars. Who besides Woods offers dependable, unsexy value, and why are those types of players so important? Scott and Pat drop some names. Scott recaps his recent golf trip and explains how golf helped get him through the pandemic. There’s also some musical conversation, of course, with Scott explaining why John Lennon is his favorite Beatle and assessing the career of George Harrison. Scott and Pat talk about “Hard Knocks” and this year’s featured team, the Cowboys. Who’s likely to be the more valuable WR – Amari Cooper or CeeDee Lamb? And how early is too early to draft Ezekiel Elliott? Scott and Pat debate who should go 1.03 in drafts, and Scott weighs in on Damien Harris, Jakobi Meyers and D’Andre Swift.
