Players We've Already Changed Our Minds On

Players We've Already Changed Our Minds On

Author: HarrisFootball.com September 18, 2026 Duration: 1:00:27

Have we mentioned how much we love it once the games are underway? We get to actually change our opinions based on...reality! And that's our main topic for this Friday episode of the Little Podcast That Could: players we've seen in action that we now believe we were either too *low* on or too *high* on before the season started. Plus we'll review the Bills doing whatever they wanted Thursday night against the Lions, and we'll talk about the injuries you'll be tracking in advance of Week 2. Guest: Jeff Erickson of Rotowire.

For anyone tired of fantasy football advice that feels like it's just repackaging the same stats and headlines, the Harris Fantasy Football Podcast offers a different path. Hosted by Christopher Harris of HarrisFootball.com, this show is built on a simple, labor-intensive premise: ignoring the box score to actually watch the game film. The conversations you'll hear are born from that tape study, moving beyond superficial numbers to discuss how players are really being used, what the schemes reveal, and which performances are sustainable or due for change. It’s a process focused on understanding the "why" behind the results, whether dissecting a rookie's route-running or a veteran's changing role. This approach informs every episode, aiming to provide actionable insights that help you build a more resilient roster from your draft through the playoff push. The goal isn't just to offer weekly waiver wire names, but to foster a smarter, more nuanced way of thinking about player evaluation and team management throughout the entire NFL season. Tune in for a detailed, film-driven perspective that cuts through the noise of the fantasy football industry.
