Kenneth Walker III, Omarion Hampton, D.J. Moore & MORE: 10 fantasy DRAFT picks ready for BIG SCORING spikes

·32 min·1 clip

Kenneth Walker could gain four to nine fantasy points per game with the Chiefs.

The show opens with a quick membership plug before moving into fantasy risers. Michelle Majuch and Vinny Iyer frame the day around 10 players they believe will post the largest rise in fantasy points this season compared with last year, five picks each, with last season’s Trevor Lawrence and Matthew Stafford exercise used as the benchmark. Kenneth Walker and Marian Hampton head the board. The pair keeps returning to how roles, touches, scoring chances, and usage can steer fantasy production in the right direction. David Montgomery is another major running back call. Vinny Iyer points to Montgomery’s move to the Houston Texans and argues that the team may not add much at running back, which could leave Montgomery set up for major goal-line work and steadier weekly production. The hosts stay grounded. They keep turning player movement into workload, scoring position, and whether a manager is paying for upside that still has room to grow. The running back class matters here too. They note that the class looks weak after the top names, which helps explain why certain veterans and new-team fits may have more room to rise. The conversation keeps coming back to workload. Goal-line work, pass-catching value, and the difference between a useful floor and a true spike season all stay in focus. Late in the show, the attention narrows to young tight ends. Tyler Warren and Loveland come up as names the hosts like for long-term upside, with a shared sense that this is the kind of position where patient drafters can get ahead of the market. The episode keeps its pace brisk. It ends by reminding listeners to subscribe, follow, and come back the next day for another run through the fantasy board.
