Are These Players Trustworthy or TRAPS in Fantasy Football? Dynasty Fantasy Football Podcast - Ep. 703

Dynasty Nerds dives deep into breakout stars shaking up your dynasty fantasy football leagues this season. Rich, Matt, and Garret break down Troy Franklin's monster Week 2 with the Broncos, debating if his targets and routes make him a weekly flex option or just hype under Sean Payton.

Javonte Williams looks explosive again in Dallas, dominating touches and red zone work for that RB1 potential. Wan'Dale Robinson's air yards and volume in New York have us eyeing him as a sneaky PPR asset. Zay Flowers is exploding in Baltimore with massive target shares, pushing WR1 territory. We rate each on our trust scale from fake news to lineup lock, plus Isaiah Likely meter on Jordan Mason stepping up in Minnesota, Daniel Jones channeling Ryan Tannehill in Indy, Travis Etienne's workload in Jacksonville, Bryce Young's future in Carolina, and Kyle Pitts grinding for that top-six tight end finish in Atlanta.
