The Late-Round Fantasy Football Podcast

by iHeartPodcasts

Fantasy football doesn't have to feel so luck-driven. The award-winning Late-Round Fantasy Football Podcast is a fantasy football show that helps you win through bite-sized, analytically-driven episodes. Instead of just drafting from a list of players and crossing your fingers with the hopes that those players produce, host JJ Zachariason provides a process to help you find breakout candidates, sleepers, busts and more. The approach is logical. It's strategic. And it wins.

What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I strongly recommend this podcast. The breakdowns really helped to open my eyes to issues in how I evaluated players. A few specifics were investing into split backfields and aggressively targeting rookies mid-season. I went from bronze to plat and won 2/3 leagues this year.

DYEE4614 · Jan 2025

JJ delivers in each phase of what any fantasy footballer is looking for: analysis on trends, talent, historical usage, and real NFL schemes. All in under 20 minutes. This podcast is a must listen for every league type, especially in season. It has helped me with both dynasty and redraft titles. Thanks JJ for your work

Nimrod92490 · Dec 2024

Just finished the last episode of the becoming a bast ball bro series. I highly anticipated the release of these episodes every Wednesday during the off-season! It was definitely my favorite off-season content to listen to, and was fun to help me get into best ball for the first time this year. Hope JJ does it again next season!

JFunRun · Aug 2024

In Fantasy Football, were all looking for an edge. JJ’s show will be that edge for you. He brings extremely insightful data to the table and then unpacks it for you in bite-sized chunks. Each episode is easily digestible in 15 minutes, so there’s no excuse not to give it a shot. It could be the difference for you this season! (Updated for 2024)
