It’s good to be back! I have got to stop planning vacations during the football season. I’m returning from a two-week trip to Iceland, where not only was it difficult to get cell service to watch games, and barely manage my teams, but also where kick-off was at 5 p.m. It was not ideal staying up until 3 a.m. to watch the night games. I would highly recommend traveling to Iceland and spending a couple of weeks driving around the country. It was 2 weeks of great food, great people, hiking, and site seeing. Plus, you get to drive some bad ass routes, fording rivers, and drive along volcanic ash roads, all while getting pelted with hail/rain/wind in “super jeeps”. Just be sure to check the news every morning to be sure your route doesn’t have any landslides or extreme flooding! Now as that post-vacation relaxation tends to fade away, let’s dive back in and examine some surprising dynasty situations.

One of my favorite movie scenes is an obscure moment in Batman (1989) where Grissom is talking to his associate Jack Napier (pre Joker transformation). They are in a deserted office and Grissom, Napier’s boss, is telling him about why he was chosen for an important job. Grissom grips him by the shoulders and hisses “you’re my…numbah one…guuyyy”. It’s both creepy and awesome. I feel like I am telling this to each and every player on a weekly basis as I slide them into my lineup.

Since I am in an all time high 18 fantasy football leagues this year, I have a lot of guys. But only a select few have the honor of being so cherished by me that I have invested heavily. These leagues range from a long running standard redraft to  startup 2 QB superflex PPR devy league and everything in between. Because of this, some draft strategies have been different than others, but overall I clearly have some soft spots for certain players.  If you like reading about other people’s fake football teams, proceed!

Back for a second week talking rookie running backs, B_Don and Donkey Teeth roll through the rest of the 2019 RB class. The guys both have rose colored glasses for Justice Hill in Baltimore; they also dig deep on boom or bust candidate Bryce Love in Washington and Bowling Ball Benny Snell Jr. in Pittsburgh.

Later in the show B_Don highlights a few of his favorite deep targets from this class in Ty Johnson, Travis Homer, and Miles Gaskin while DT expresses some strong feelings for late rounders Darwin Thompson and Rodney Anderson. Other under the radar names featured on this episode of The Sausage Fest include Tony Pollard, Ryquell Armstead, Trayveon Williams, Dexter Williams, Jordan Scarlett, Kerry Whyte, Mike Weber, Qadree Ollison, and Bruce Anderson.
