Author: HarrisFootball.com September 4, 2026 Duration: 1:06:50

We've finally reached the biggest fantasy football draft weekend of the year! We know: you're ready! The reason we know? Because there *are* no right answers! Anyone who tells you they're positive about anything is lying! The NFL re-invents itself every year. So be a little nervous, that's fun, but don't stress too much. On today's show, we'll deliver that message of calm, and also hand out the hardware for this fantasy draft season. Guest: Cousin Josh.

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.
