Tom Kislingbury (@TomKislingbury) runs through where you can expect players to come off the board in your rookie draft at each position. What round, what the tiers look like, and which ones are good bets at that sort of cost. As always with IDP - please bear in mind that league settings, roster size, starting requirements and scoring have a massive effect. If your league starts 3 IDPs, and the best ones score 1 point a week this is not going to make much sense. But on the whole, this...

Tom Kislingbury (@TomKislingbury) is joined by DLF and 4for4 writer Mike Woellert (@Mike_Woellert) to talk through IDP landing spots from the draft. They go into detail about specific situations and sketch out a framework of when you’ll need to draft players you like.

Tom Kislingbury (@TomKislingbury) is joined by DLF writer Jase Abbey (@Jase_Abbey) to talk about what teams might do in the draft. What positions they need help at, what IDP recruits could look like, when they might invest. The lads cover every team in the first round - but that still leaves a few without a first round pick this season. Expect to see them covered next time out!

Tom Kislingbury (@TomKislingbury) and Adam Tzikas (@Adamtz) talk about the top deals for defensive players so far in 2022 free agency. Did they gain IDP value? Lose it?

Every year before the season we do a Hot Take episode where we make outlandish predictions [that just might come true]. This is where we look back at them and work out what we got wrong, what we got right, what makes us look prescient, and what makes us look stupid. Tom Kislingbury (@TomKislingbury) and Adam Tzikas (@Adamtz) are joined by our buddy Mike Woellert (@Mike_Woellert) as always.

This time of year the question on everyone’s lips in IDP is “which players are good buy-low opportunities for 2022?” So Tom Kislingbury (@TomKislingbury) and Adam Tzikas (@Adamtz) nominate one player on each team who you might be able to pick up as a bargain now.

There’s some foolishness in there - but also some serious discussion and knowledge. Hopefully it’s fun and useful. Cheerio!

Tom Kislingbury (@TomKislingbury) is on his own this week but determined to stick to some sort of weekly audio content schedule. TK runs through a key pre-season question [or two] for every team in the NFL. What to look out for? What we need to know? Where can we profit? How can we improve our IDP teams? APologies for the massive English accent soliloquy!

StickyZ (@AdamTz) and Tom Kislingbury (@TomKislingbury) talk through how LB tiers look for the 2021 season and beyond. Which LBs are all but guaranteed to play every snap? Which LBs are close to that but a little unsure? Which teams have murky situations? Who will emerge from them? How confident can we be of them? The LB position is a key one of course - but it’s massively susceptible to overpaying for supposed studs. So how can you get good value and find bargains? Tune in to find out!
