Go West, Young Man (guest: Dwain McFarland)

FantasyPros - Fitz on Fantasy

Joining host Pat Fitzmaurice (@Fitz_FF) this week is Dwain McFarland of PFF (Dwain McFarland). Dwain and Pat discuss what a six-game suspension means for Deshaun Watson’s fantasy value and under what circumstances they would consider drafting him. Is it worth having a geographical bias in your drafts this year? Dwain urges you to splurge on the potent offenses in the AFC West and NFC West. Pat has been hesitant to buy in on James Cook, but Dwain sways him with a compelling pro-Cook argument. Dwain and Pat express their mutual affection for Kadarius Toney, and Dwain lays out compelling cases for Skyy Moore and Treylon Burks. There isn’t a single Najee Harris share in Dwain’s ample 2022 portfolio, and he explains why not.

Dwain talks about his love of poker, what he was doing before becoming a full-time fantasy analyst, and his appreciation of Bob Marley. Whose performances early in training camp have influenced Dwain and Pat’s perceptions? A couple of rookie receivers have caught their attention. Dwain wants you to draft Kyle Pitts in the third round and makes his sales pitch. He also weighs in on who should be drafted 1.01 – Jonathan Taylor or Christian McCaffrey.
