One MANS Opinion: Episode 307 – World Cup of Wide Receivers
1w ago01:11:56Tap to summarizeJeff Mans is in a World Cup state of mind this week as he wrestles with the idea of watching soccer while also being incredibly bored and distracted at the same time. So, he invented his own game inspired by the World Cup, in which he pits every wide receiver in the NFL against one another in a steel cage-like tournament decided by a simple math formula of his own creation. First, he finds the WRs on each team that he has the most interest in based on their current market price, then he puts them into a bracket sorted alphabetically by NFL team name. Mans rolls through each matchup explaining what he likes and dislikes about each player and whittles the field down to the final four, the championship matchup, and finally the lone victor of the 2026 World Cup of Wide Receivers. Jeff also hits on NFL news, the Knicks winning the NBA Finals, the Carolina Hurricanes winning the Stanley Cup, and the future of his SXM radio show.

Transcribe →One MANS Opinion: Episode 306 – I Don’t Play Fantasy Football
2w ago01:06:27Tap to summarizeJeff Mans is shot out of a cannon this week as he first addresses the wild Twitter trolling that suggests he “doesn’t play fantasy football.” In 20+ years in the fantasy industry, this was one of the wildest accusations ever, and Mans discusses the cult-like tribalism that leads to these sorts of wild conversations. For those interested, he does go over a quick recap of his resume, just in case anybody is curious. Jeff gives out a few of his best values in fantasy football right now, according to the latest ADP. Then he dives into a detailed conversation about what fantasy players should be expecting from each position (QB, RB, WR, TE) on a weekly basis. Mans reveals the players at each position that hit those marks the most, revealing the most consistent weekly winners over the last three years. This information is huge, whether you are playing in redraft or best ball league formats this year.

Transcribe →One MANS Opinion: Episode 305 – Places Trading
3w ago01:15:02Tap to summarizeHe’s back from a week at the beach, but the sunshine has not softened Jeff Mans one bit as he comes in hot with a ton of takes and analysis. Two blockbuster NFL trades this week have the football world abuzz, and Mans offers his biggest takeaways from both deals. As AJ Brown arrives in “heaven,” the Eagles are left with a pool of wide receivers who will need to step up and become the alpha. Mans makes his case for one of those Eagles WRs here this week. Is it possible that the Browns traded away the best player in recent franchise history and yet somehow made a good deal out of it? Jeff believes so and offers his reasoning here. The Falcons gave Drake London $141 million, but Mans has concerns with that contract specifically because of who may be throwing him the football. It's that time of year to take a spin around the redraft and best ball average draft position (ADP) numbers and break them down by position. As he goes through it, Mans uncovers a sizeable mistake the best ball drafters are making right now and tells us exactly how to exploit it right now.

4w ago01:03:40Tap to summarizeJeff Mans is live on tape from the beach, and even though he is not on the radio this week, he’s still providing that deep diving fantasy football content right here. This week, Jeff is revealing all of the new upgrades he and the team have been working on over at Fantasy Guru dot com in anticipation of the launch of the 2026 Draft Guide. Mans has a strong warning concerning fantasy football content creators and engagement farmers after his interaction with one this week that was blindly misleading people with full-on fake statistics. That interaction leads to a much more honest look at how to analyze rookies. He looks back at the 2025 rookie ADP and notes the hits and misses from a year ago. Then Jeff reviews the top 20 fantasy football rookie seasons ever and discusses what led to each of those players’ breakouts. Then it is time to get dirty by going in the trenches and breaking down which NFL teams have made the biggest upgrades and downgrades along their offensive lines this offseason.

May 2001:10:46Tap to summarizeThis week’s episode starts with the breaking news that Chiefs WR Rashee Rice is headed to jail for the next 30 days while also rehabbing a surprise knee surgery that we are just learning about now. Jeff Mans breaks down how this impacts Rice’s availability for the Chiefs and his fantasy value in 2026. He also has reactions to NFL OTAs where one quarterback is back in the saddle (Aaron Rodgers) while another is holding out for more money (Jacoby Brissett). Then it is time for Mans to count down his top 10 best and worst moves of the entire 2026 NFL offseason so far. These include coaching changes, trades, free agency, NFL Draft, retirements, hirings, firings, and anything else executed by the 32 NFL teams.

Transcribe →One MANS Opinion: Episode 302 – Getting Older
May 1301:10:39Tap to summarizeAnother jam-packed episode this week, folks, as Jeff Mans begins by discussing his emotions as he watched his oldest daughter graduate from law school this week. Mans pontificates that while getting older comes with plenty of advantages, he longs to go back and take that ride again. Of course, there is a ton of football talk here as well as Jeff wraps up his first dynasty league rookie draft and reveals the six players he took this season. Then it is time to take a spin around the super early average draft position (ADP) in fantasy football right now. Mans reveals the top 12 players who are going in the first round and where he has each one ranked right now. He also gives out his top 12, which features three players not in the top 15 in the current marketplace. This leads to a deeper conversation about players that Jeff Mans is higher on right now than the current market. If you or someone you know is drafting early, this is an episode that you cannot miss.

Transcribe →One MANS Opinion: Episode 301 – 2026 Rookie Rankings
May 601:06:39Tap to summarizeWith so many dynasty leagues having their rookie drafts immediately after the NFL Draft, Jeff Mans felt it was the right time to reveal his 2026 rookie fantasy football rankings this week. These all can be found on the Fantasy Guru website, of course, but in this episode, Jeff breaks down exactly how to handle a weak class of NFL rookies and which traits to look for when searching for fantasy production. He expresses how league formats matter because those who are playing in a Superflex and/or an IDP league will find this rookie class much better than those in skill-position-only league setups. Mans also reveals how two of his dynasty league drafts have gone so far, including who he landed on for his first pick in each league. Also, Jeff discusses how different the NBA betting scene is now in the playoffs and wonders why every professional sport is addicted to resting players at every possible opportunity.

Transcribe →One MANS Opinion: Episode 300 – 2026 NFL Draft Grades
Apr 2901:26:57Tap to summarizeThe NFL Draft has ended, and Jeff Mans is here to recap all seven rounds and 257 picks. First off, Jeff addresses the silly “consensus draft board” argument plaguing social media the last few days and explains why certain people are so desperate to have their opinions fit in with the mainstream. Also, the idea that this was a “bad draft for fantasy football” is simply impossible because the production will be there one way or another. Then Jeff goes round by round, giving out his top five best picks of each round, then his top five worst picks out of each round of the draft. He provides his reasoning why those picks are hits and misses along the way, too. As usual, Mans recaps every single pick made by all 32 NFL teams and, using his draft prospect formula, gives each team a score, letter grade, and ranking. He explains the hits, misses, what he would have done differently, and the fantasy impact for each selection here, too. This is a super-sized episode this week, full of juicy NFL Draft nuggets, so pull up to the table and eat.

Transcribe →One MANS Opinion: Episode 299 – Boom Goes The Mock Draft
Apr 2201:15:22Tap to summarizeIt’s NFL Draft week here at One Mans Opinion, and Jeff Mans is getting us ready for the first round and beyond. He begins this week's show with some news across the NFL, including the latest in the soap opera of Mike Vrabel and Dianna Russini, a contract extension for Trent Williams, an update on Colts QB Daniel Jones, and the status of Rams WR Puka Nacua. Mans discusses a few of the NFL Draft prospects that he feels have slipped through the cracks this cycle, including the player who had the best odds to go #1 overall at this time last year. Then it is time again for the “Mans Vs Mock” simulation, where Jeff goes through all 32 of the first round picks and makes the best decision for each team while comparing his choices to the mock drafters out there. A few very telling trends then emerge as we wonder if the mock drafters are even trying to fit the player with the right team. Along the way, Mans points out each team's offseason additions/subtractions, coaching changes, and draft history in trying to make the optimal selections.
