Matt Waldman's RSP Cast

Footballguys staff writer Adam Harstad joins RSP Film and Data as Matt Waldman’s cohost for the 2023 football season to discuss practices that will make you a better fantasy GM and NFL fan. There are a lot of excellent writers and analysts in the fantasy industry. There are few that I hold in as high a regard as Adam. He’s a forthright human being with a tremendous intellect whose approach to analysis in this space differs from most. He’s also an excellent fantasy GM in re-draft and dynasty formats. Unlike Dwain McFarland, whose work delves into the statistical process, Adam spends a lot of time examining results and dealing with broad themes of decision-making that help us become better fantasy players and fantasy analysts. Topics * Why do we still love the NFL? (Storytelling, the game's silos, the violence) * What do we hate about the league? (Phasing out special teams, the violence, fame) * Where are we conflicted about pro football? (Violence, fame, phasing out special teams) And of course, if you want to know about the rookies from this draft class, you will find the most in-depth analysis of offensive skill players available (QB, RB, WR, and TE), with the 2023 Rookie Scouting Portfolio for $21.95.  Matt’s new RSP Dynasty Rankings and Two-Year Projections Package is available for $24.95 If you’re a fantasy owner and interested in purchasing past publications for $9.95 each, the 2012-2022 RSPs also have a Post-Draft Add-on that’s included at no additional charge.   If you’re a fantasy owner and interested in purchasing past publications for $9.95 each, the 2012-2022 RSPs also have a Post-Draft Add-on that’s included at no additional charge.   Best yet, proceeds from sales are set aside for a year-end donation to Darkness to Light to combat the sexual abuse of children.

Khari Demos joins Matt Waldman's RSP site this season to profile college football's trenches while keeping an eye on standout offensive skill players. This week, Demos dives into the games of Notre Dame left tackle Joe Alt and USC guard Alani Noa and puts us on notice with QB Sam Hartman and RB Austin Jones. Fall is almost upon us. The night is arriving faster and stores are already stocked for Halloween. Another batch of goodies is also here for us to feast upon: college football season.  One of the coolest treats of the college football landscape is Week 0. Week 0 can often be a certified payday weekend, meaning Power 5 schools host programs from the Group of 5 in what often are mismatches on the field in exchange for a fine payout. While there was some of that to kick off the 2023 season, we also got to see a few of the best teams (and players) in college football right off the bat. Since I will note a lot of the offensive line work throughout the season, let’s start with arguably the best one in the country: Notre Dame Left Tackle Joe Alt. Towing the Line: LT Joe Alt, Notre Dame The son of Kansas City Chiefs Hall of Famer John Alt, the North Oaks, MN native has a rare blend of size (6-foot-8, 315 pounds) and athleticism. This makes that much more sense considering the fact that he played tight end in high school and began his career with the Fighting Irish as one. The 2022 First-Team All-American selection is expected to be a top-10 pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. So, a player of his stature should be able to handle his own against a Navy defensive front that had speed to offer, but far less size to combat with Alt and ND’s fellow starters up front. And the big fella did not disappoint with his efforts. But I will say, there are pieces of his game that he will need to address with matchups against the likes of Ohio State, USC, and Clemson still on the slate. What I think he did a much better job of in Week 0 in comparison to what he did at times throughout his first two years in South Bend was finishing blocks. You can see here on tape here at the 13:41, 12:23, 10:23, and 9:05 marks throughout the first quarter against Navy (and shoutout to @DoABarrowRoll on YouTube for some help there) as times when he really anchored in and handled business in the run game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3RQilRHoDfg&t=38s https://youtu.be/3RQilRHoDfg?t=67 https://youtu.be/3RQilRHoDfg?t=107 https://youtu.be/3RQilRHoDfg?t=121 This is the peak of what he can be as a road grader with his elite size. The problem, though, is that his rawness and need to continue adding strength to his frame can be very evident at moments in the run game. An example of this would be the two-play stretch here. One thing I will say about Alt is that he almost always covers people up and knows how to cut them off. The issue is that he is more times than not just position blocking when he does that, which can work against the likes of the Navy Midshipmen. https://youtu.be/3RQilRHoDfg?t=38 But ultimately, Pitt, or Louisville, or whoever else ND will see down the line, should offer a stiffer form of competition that may need more than that (not to mention once he makes his way to the NFL). What I will say about Alt is he is a master in pass protection (

On episode three of the Going Deep podcast, Brandon Angelo and Matt Waldman discuss the rise of Tyjae Spears, the fall of Trey Lance, a new setting for Matt Corral, preseason movers and shakers, and notable cuts and signings to NFL practice squads.  Brandon Angelo works in sports and human performance. A former 4-time All-American and Power Five conference champion sprinter, Brandon is a mentor, instructor, and guide for athletes. He’s also the proprietor of Angelo Analysis, a subscription-based fantasy website devoted to player evaluation. After doing a few podcasts together during the past 12 months, Brandon and I decided we would enjoy having a recurring show to discuss aspects of player evaluation and NFL Draft topics that you don’t often hear about in mainstream media. This pre-draft pod about the NFL’s disparities with 40 times and several more ’23 draft and free agent topics is a must-listen. Going Deep will feature podcasts twice a month. You can either watch/listen on YouTube, listen from the player at the bottom of the page, or download the podcast at most outlets, including Google, Spotify, and iTunes. This Week’s Topics * Tyjae Spears' preseason performance * What it means for the Titans short-term and long-term. * Thoughts on Malik Willis and Will Levis. * What it means for Spears' fantasy value in re-draft and dynasty. * Trey Lance * What went wrong and why there may be a Cold War between head coach and GM in San Francisco. * What the 49ers should have done. * Lance's outlook in Dallas * Matt Corral: Talent assessment, fit in NE, and why the Patriots will give us a quick answer about Corral's potential. * Notable preseason movers: DeMario Douglas, Tyler Scott, Chris Evans, Chris Brooks, Jaleel McLaughlin, Erik Ezukanma, Patrick Taylor, and Rakim Jarrett. * Notable practice squad additions and team cuts: Elijah Higgins, Zonovan Knight, Deneric Prince, Hassan Hall, and Myles Gaskin. https://youtu.be/8sJ0jS3Pk44 And of course, if you want to know about the rookies from this draft class, you will find the most in-depth analysis of offensive skill players available (QB, RB, WR, and TE),
