This is an iHeart Podcast. Guaranteed human.
How does Malik Willis's performance impact his draft value?
Another podcast from some SNL late-night comedy guy. Not quite. On Humor Me with Robert Smigel and Friends, me and hilarious guests from Bob Odenkirk to David Letterman help make you funnier. This week, my guests, SNL's Mikey Day and head writer Streeter Seidel, help an a cappella band with their between-songs banter.
Where does your group perform?
Can Tyler Shough become a top-12 quarterback this season?
We do some retirement homes. Those people are starving for banter.

Welcome everybody to Fantasy Pros, this is the Fantasy Football Podcast and it's me Joey P, Joe P Zappia and today we're going to take an early look at 12 sleepers that are very popular right now in the early going.
What should we expect from rookie running back Bhayshul Tuten?
We got best ball drafts kind of happening, things are percolating, it's post draft season, rookie drafts are going on in Dynasty so we're going to talk about some of these names that are getting some early helium. and whether or not you should be inflating them as well onto your rosters to help us get through them. We've got Scott Bogman here, one of the hosts here of our college football content, and of course, over here on Fantasy Pros as well, and our special guest today, one of the godfathers of fantasy football, one of my mentors, one of my heroes, one of my favorite bald brothers, the... Football diehard Bob Harris is here from Sirius XM Radio joining us. Bob, it's great to see you, my friend.
I know this is kind of like a little bit of a lull here. So how does Bob Harris keep himself busy this time of year before we really get into training camp, but it's post-draft? What's the Bob Harris schedule look like?
The Bob and Paris schedule is plenty busy covering news and football guys. Also writing my weekly fantasy notebook. You'll find that there every weekend, a hot seat, YouTube videos also on the fantasy football show.
How does Rico Dowdle fit into the Steelers' offense?
So there are no days off, as you know, by the way, you confuse me with two things that glorious tan Bogman and I need to do some work. Clearly. Yeah. Also, this is just May.
Do you know what I look like by the time we get to July and August? Okay. Let me tell you something. It's a whole different thing.
You said you're Joe Pizzapia.
Is Alec Pierce a viable fantasy option this season?
I said, well, wait. I thought I was on with the great Joe Pizzapia, which is how I always introduce you.
That's true. Well, you and Mike Dempsey are too kind. Always check out the Diehards on Sirius 2. The very best football program you can find. They're on the NFL channel. They're on the Fantasy channel on there. They do all kinds of great work. And so do we. And we want you to subscribe to our YouTube channel here. Hang out with us. Ring the bell until it goes ding so you never miss a piece of content here on the channel. It's never too early to get ahead of your league mates. And that's what we're doing today. So we're going to start at the quarterback position with two guys that are getting some early love.
What potential does Isaiah Likely have as a tight end?
Now, the offseason love for Malik Willis was really percolating, right? Because he was a free agent. People were speculating, where could he be? Maybe he could be a Pittsburgh Steeler.
What makes Oronde Gadsden II a player to watch in 2026?
Maybe he could end up here or there. He ended up on arguably the worst team in football. It's possible because the roster's been gutted. They had 11 draft picks. They got a new head coach. They don't have a lot of offensive weapons. The best offensive weapon they do have is Devon Achan, who could very well end up Holding out, and we all know sometimes those holdouts go too long and guys get hurt. It's a whole mess there in Miami. So I know there's a lot of early love for Malik Willis, and I get it. He's a Russian quarterback. That's a lot of fantasy points. Even if it's ugly, who cares? He had some really good spot starts there with the Green Bay Packers. But Bob, I'm going to hit you with Malik Willis first, because I want to know here what you think.
about Malik Willis in terms of his sleeper ability. Do you think he can be a low-end QB1? Is he somebody that you're targeting in super flex drafts, regardless of the fact that maybe the Dolphins offense just isn't quite super thrilling?
