Fantasy Football This or That | Players we're targeting & fading

The Fantasy Life Podcast is here with Ian Hartitz & Matthew Freedman! Before we dive into the episode, Ian introduces one of the newest members of the Fantasy Life crew, and our new Head of Betting, Matthew Freedman!! Today, we dive into a comparison between franchise quarterbacks Justin Herbert, Trevor Lawrence, and Geno Smith. While Herbert and Lawrence are expensive picks with high expectations, Smith presents an arbitrage opportunity that shouldn't be overlooked. We analyze their 2022 fantasy production, debunk misconceptions about Smith's performance, and highlight the offensive firepower surrounding each quarterback. Join us as we discuss the pros and cons of each quarterback, provide expert analysis from Freedman Notes, and reveal our personal arbitrage picks for the QB position: Justin Fields (QB6, 49.3) and Anthony Richardson (QB11, 100.9). Don't miss out on this fantasy football breakdown that will help you make informed decisions for your team. After that, we dive into RBs in the same situation!
