Devastating LB injuries in Tennessee and Detroit shook up the IDP landscape this weekend. Meanwhile, in Los Angeles, Indianapolis, and Houston, we have edge rushers heating up after a slow start. And then in Denver, the second most prolific sack artist of 2024 is turning in a career year. Josh, Adam, and Bobby cover all these stories and much more as the march toward the playoffs continues.

Over the last month, Dante Fowler is the second highest scoring edge rusher by PPG behind only Trey Hendrickson... just like we all expected! Even though Josh, Adam, and Bobby thought Fowler would play well in Washington, his recent glow-up has been surprising. Will it last? Who knows, but we're going to enjoy it while it does! In addition to the late-career breakout for the former #3 overall pick, the fellas discuss all the other headlines from Week 10, including Micah Parson's return, a new...

We're nearing the halfway point of the 2024 NFL season, so of course it would be TJ Watt reasserting himself as the IDP1 on the year. Some things never change. Watt aside, things continue to change in IDP and Josh, Adam, and Bobby are here to break it all down for you in a beefy recap of Week 8. Linebackers, edge rushers, safeties, dynasty rankings, splits of splits, second-half surges: it's all covered here, with a dash of mirth thrown in for good measure.

The injuries continue to hit hard and fast for fantasy football on both sides of the ball... and now we have bye weeks to contend with. As we survey the wreckage from Week 4, we have to admire what Troy Andersen was able to do with his opportunity (before he got injured again, sigh). Elsewhere, rookie LBs are surging, and defensive linemen are dropping like flies. What are we IDP managers to do? Josh, Adam, and Bobby break it all down on this week's recap.

How do you know your offense is struggling? When there are four linebackers who've played more than 200 snaps through three weeks... and your team employs two of them. But that gives Zaire Franklin and EJ Speed a nice floor moving forward for IDP managers. Josh and Adam are joined by leaguemate Sam Cosby to discuss the Colts LBs, Nick Herbig's new opportunity, Lavonte David's disappointing start, and all the other headlines from Week 3 of the 2024 NFL season.

With the 2024 NFL season a little over a week away, it's the perfect time to talk about two of our favorite subjects: linebackers and trades! First up, the Big 3 welcomes in the Green Dot King, Mike Woellert, to discuss the bombshell Ernest Jones trade, some ambiguous green dot situations to monitor, under-the-radar LBs with green dot and 3-down appeal, and Mike's LB flag plants for 2024.

With the start of IDP drafts being pretty chalky, the middle rounds are where drafters earn their money. After covering their favorite picks in the first 10 rounds previously, Josh and Adam are back to discuss the biggest values in rounds 11-20. If you're approaching these middle-round picks as opportunities to chase upside or go after boom/bust players, that's probably not the best approach. Listen in as we share a better way to tackle this portion of the draft.

Although we preach "fade DB" in IDP, that doesn't mean we dislike cornerbacks and safeties! In fact, thanks to an influx of young talent, the dynasty DB ranks are filled with studs we'd like to have on our teams. In this episode, Josh and Adam go through the top 24 DBs in Adam's dynasty rankings to see which guys are being overvalued and undervalued, who's due for regression in 2024, and which assets we like best long term.

With any type of fantasy football draft, identifying the right players to select in each round (and passing on the players who are sure to disappoint) is one of the keys to success.
