If you had the chance to start your fantasy football season from scratch — to draft once again — who would you take in the first round? How would a fantasy draft end up looking today? Are you still going with Todd Gurley at number one overall? Does Patrick Mahomes belong anywhere close to the first round? Since we've gone a quarter-way through the NFL season and about a third of the way through the Fantasy regular season, Yahoo experts Liz Loza and Dalton Del Don decided to think about what the top of a fantasy draft would look like now that we've reached Week 5. They discuss this list and more on the latest episode, which includes matchups to look out for in Week 5, a special edition of "Fantasy Court" with judge Andy Behrens, "This Week in Fantasy History," and a few bargain plays and fades for Daily Fantasy.

Much was made of the apparent demise of Tom Brady and Andrew Luck and Mitchell Trubisky (was he ever alive?), but Week 4 proved that perhaps those assumptions were ill-advised. Luck put up a performance that silenced his critics (at least for the week) and Brady returned home to utterly dominate the division-leading Miami Dolphins. Yet those performances paled in comparison to what Trubisky did to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Liz Loza, Scott Pianowski, and Matt Harmon break down those spectacular performances as well as answer your questions about the important lessons learned during Week 4. Our experts also discuss the two-headed monster forming in Patriots backfield, the sudden resurgence of the Titans offense, and a dissection into Aaron Rodgers' chances of ever being a "sit" candidate. They wrap up with waiver-wire options you should consider as we look ahead to Week 5.

Week 4 is here! On this week’s episode, our experts break down all the happenings leading up to kickoff, including a few Buy-Low/Sell-High candidates (*cough* Kareem Hunt *cough*). They also touch upon some old signal callers still slinging the rock and the new school of talent making their first starts on Sunday. Later, they’ll answer some of your questions about players who are staring down some difficult matchups in Week 4, and which you're most afraid of. Our very own Brad Evans then delivers Week 4’s edition of “Great Moments in Fantasy History,” going back in time to showcase one of the most epic performances by a Seattle Seahawks legend. The team wraps up with a couple bargains and fades for Week 4 of Yahoo Daily Fantasy, but not before trying to guess which names actually belong to active skill players and which are made up in a new game we're calling, "The Jason Croom 'Who Is This Guy?' All-Stars." Remember to rate, review and subscribe on your podcast provider of choice and send us your questions for future episodes on Twitter @YahooFantasy.

Week 3 delivered us a football Sunday replete with some confusing box scores. One that wasn't confusing is the Vikings crushing the Bills, 27-6...oh wait. Wait. No, the BUFFALO BILLS WENT TO MINNESOTA AND DOMINATED THE VIKINGS. Yes, that happened, and more. Week 3, ladies and gentlemen. Liz Loza, Scott Pianowski, and Matt Harmon break down that unexpected result as well as answer your questions about some other Week 3 surprises and the fantasy impacts of each of them. Our experts also discuss one of the biggest losses of the day, as San Francisco 49ers Quarterback Jimmy Garappolo went down with what looked like a devastating injury. One of the biggest winners of the day though, was Patrick Mahomes, who continued to light up the league on Sunday. Our experts discuss the Chiefs incredible offense as well as another classic Saints-Falcons matchup. They wrap up with waiver-wire options you should consider as we look ahead to Week 4.

Week 3 is here! On this week's episode, they break down all the happenings of the week, including that huge Josh Gordon trade — and the crazy effect its had on the fantasy world. Our experts also touch upon the long-awaited return of a certain Philly QB, the soap-opera drama in Pittsburgh, and the continued prevalence of Ryan Fitzmagic (it doesn't matter if you don't believe in Fitzmagic — he believes in you). Later, they'll answer some of your questions about the players who shined in the first two weeks, and which of them has the best chance to keep it up. Our very own Brad Evans then delivers Week 3's edition of "Great Moments in Fantasy History," going back in time to showcase one of the most insane stat lines in wide receiver history. The team wraps up with one bargain and one fade for Week 3 of Yahoo Daily Fantasy.

Week 2’s Sunday slate of games has come and gone, and we saw some outrageous quarterback performances — oh, you thought Fitzmagic was just a one week thing? Liz Loza, Scott Pianowski, and Matt Harmon break down the herculean outings of Patrick Mahomes, Ben Roethlisberger — who seems to only wear his best superhero cape when he’s at home — and yes, Ryan Fitzpatrick. Our experts also touch upon a few of the biggest questions that were left unanswered in Week 2, like Josh Gordon’s future, the 49ers backfield situation, and of course, the one that has undoubtedly already begun to haunt fantasy owners: what’s wrong with David Johnson? Later, the trio discusses players who have fantasy owners worried because of sluggish starts (Deshaun Watson, what’s wrong?). They wrap up with waiver-wire options you should consider as we look ahead to Week 3.
