Five Busts For 2025 & Semifinal Week Strategies

Harris Fantasy Football Podcast

Play your guys! Is it really so simple? Well, no. If you're alive in your fantasy football semifinals, you might have a choice or two at the bottom of your lineup among nauseating options. But the thing is: in a one-week sample size, please don't stress too much! It's not possible to know which scrub will accidentally score a touchdown! We'll discuss our Week 16 philosophies today, plus do some fun DraftKings DFS discussion *and* look way ahead to 2025 and nominate our lists of potential busts in next summer's drafts. Go get 'em! Guests: DFS Expert Jake Trowbridge and Cousin Josh.
