from The Optimus Fantasy Football Podcast · host Optimus Fantasy Football
Mike Vadala hosts a Mock Draft Monday first — our show's debut guest, Josh Walsh of LJ3 Cards — for our first Scott Fish Bowl mock of the 2026 season. SFB16's video-game scoring changes everything you think you know about a draft board.With ten flexible starting spots (two superflex, eight flex), positional value goes out the window — you draft straight off projections. Mike and Josh break down how the TE premium (bonus points per reception AND per first down) reshapes the early rounds and why tight ends like Brock Bowers and Trey McBride climb well past their redraft ADP. They also dig into the superflex math on quarterbacks like Jayden Daniels, Lamar Jackson, and Josh Allen, and where the wild rushing and receiving bonuses make players like Bijan Robinson and Ja'Marr Chase even more valuable than usual.Topics covered in this episode: how SFB16 scoring works and what changed this year, why the TE premium pushes tight ends up the board, navigating the two-superflex format at quarterback, where the rushing and receiving bonuses create hidden value, and the boom-or-bust approach to standing out in the largest fantasy draft in the world.🏈🎣 PLAY IN THE SCOTT FISH BOWL — sign up and donate to Fantasy Cares here: https://scottfishbowl.com/create-account.phpIt's the largest fantasy football tournament in the world and it's all for charity.
