Footballguys staff writer Adam Harstad joins RSP Film and Data as Matt Waldman’s cohost for the 2022 football season to discuss practices that will make you a better fantasy GM and NFL fan.

There are a lot of excellent writers and analysts in the fantasy industry. There are few that I hold in as high a regard as Adam. He’s a forthright human being with a tremendous intellect whose approach to analysis in this space differs from most.

He’s also an excellent fantasy GM in re-draft and dynasty formats. Unlike Dwain McFarland, whose work delves into the statistical process, Adam spends a lot of time examining results and dealing with broad themes of decision-making that help us become better fantasy players and fantasy analysts.

This week’s topics:

• The Marty Schottenheimer Rant:
  • Why he should be a Hall of Famer.
  • A decent guideline for determining worthwhile football stats.
  • The nerds’ slow evolution toward valuing indirect data.
  • The irony of task-oriented thinkers in analytics judging strategic thinking.
  • Areas where Schottenheimer was a task-oriented and strategic thinker.
• Dented Cans in Dynasty formats:
  • How to identify these players.
  • Why value is often gained even before they see the field in an attempt to rebound from their value trough?
  • Recent examples of dented cans that regained or added value.
  • Current dented cans to leverage.

Of course, if you want to know about the rookies from this draft class, you will find the most in-depth analysis of offensive skill players available (QB, RB, WR, and TE), with the 2022 Rookie Scouting Portfolio for $21.95. 

Matt’s new RSP Dynasty Rankings and Two-Year Projections Package is available for $24.95

If you’re a fantasy owner and interested in purchasing past publications for $9.95 each, the 2012-2020 RSPs also have a Post-Draft Add-on that’s included at no additional charge.

Best yet, proceeds from sales are set aside for a year-end donation to Darkness to Light to combat the sexual abuse of children.
