It’s Fantasy Football Tuesday on The Stephie Smalls Show with guest Sam Wagman, and this episode is your full Week 8 prep kit. Steph and Sam kick off with quick Week 7 takeaways, then dive into the biggest bye-week puzzle of the season and how to survive it with smart waiver pickups and stashes. They hit running backs first, weighing the merits of depth adds and injury pivots, then move to wide receivers with real roles and real ceilings. There’s straight talk on when to cut bait on underperformers, plus a refreshingly honest look at matchup-dependence for buzzy names. After that, the crew opens the mailbag for rapid-fire listener questions on start/sit choices, trade offers, and dynasty-desperation QB calls. They close with Thursday Night Football prop angles you can actually build slips around, including longest-reception markets, QB longest completions, safe yardage ladders, and a sneaky kicker prop. Sponsors are covered, bets are logged, and Steph even drops an UnderDog entry live. If you want Week 8 waiver wire targets, actionable TNF props, and clean timestamps to jump straight to what you need, this episode’s got you.
