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.

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

JJ’s stuff is SUPER informative! It’s a bit over my head, but his tier breakdowns are VERY helpful on draft day. Thanks JJ.

bolander2 · Jul 2026

Too technical, at times, with JJ’s analytics (ZAP model, breakout scores, draft capital, etc). I have to believe that the average listener, like me, is simply getting lost. And the nearly constant talk about these proprietary analytics, metrics and models (in some shows); it’s tone deaf and hard to listen to. It comes across as incessant self-promotion. Because so few of us are going to be able to fully understand all this process, let alone apply it ourselves. When the hosts are talking about actual, draft-able players, and/or hosting guests from the FF industry, it soars.

Nathan Scott · May 2026

JJ brings the best damn analysis for football, not just Fantasy, I mean football 🏈 which you can translate to fantasy, and it’s not just a “one hit wonder” thing, he keeps bringing it week after week! Now I’m a big fan of data-based analysis - not for everyone- but his research and analytics gives you superb insight into not only how to draft and play FF but understanding the NFL metaverse! Wish I had discovered him years ago! Love JJ!

ncDino · Apr 2026

JJ and company do an excellent job year in, year out at distributing a wealth of FF knowledge. As a long time subscriber and frequent draft/prospect guide buyer; this is the place for top FF content. Keep up the great work JJ; always double down on what you do best… data/numbers.
