Fantasy Buff - Fantasy Football Show

Sports

Welcome, Fellow Buffs! I’m Steven Cereby, aka the Fantasy Buff, and this show has one goal: to help you become a Fantasy Buff yourself. Fantasy football should be fun, not something you overthink until you can’t set a lineup, so we skip the paralysis by analysis and keep it simple. We stick to the basics, ask the right questions, and cover what actually matters each week, including start/sit calls, waiver wire adds, matchup breakdowns, player analysis, bold takes, and takeaways from last week’s games. New episodes every week, so hit follow and never miss a lineup decision. Let's have some fun!

  7. #1 - Week 6 Waivers + Week 5 Recap

    Episode 1

    Show notes

    Need a Week 6 waiver edge? The Buff makes the case for Woody Marks as the top priority after 19 touches, with David Montgomery dealing with a groin injury. He also ranks Aaron Rodgers, Brenton Strange, Kyler Murray (stash), Marshawn Lloyd and Dameon Pierce.

    Then it’s Week 5 reactions: why Jordan Love and Christian Watson can keep the Packers throwing, why Jaylen Warren may be a sell-high before Rico Dowdle returns, and whether it’s time to buy low on Ashton Jeanty, compared with Bucky Irving, Chuba Hubbard and Rhamondre Stevenson.
