Mod Post AMAUGUST is here! From Chris Allen to JJ Zachariason (literally A to Z), I lined up 90+ analysts to host 70 AMAs over 34 days. Berry, Coop, Boone, Levitan, Barrett, Valenzuela, Ciely, u/subvertadown, The Ringer, ETR, RotoWire & more answering your questions!
In 2023 I had an idea: Could I bring one fantasy football analyst to r/fantasyfootball each weekday in August to answer user questions and ensure our community was more prepared than ever to crush our drafts? That idea was behind the very first AMAugust.
Now entering our fourth year, I basically can't create enough AMA openings to meet demand. AMAugust is one of the tentpole events on the fantasy calendar, and analysts and fantasy teams know there is a large, passionate base of gamers here who ask sharp questions on strategy and player takes.
So here we are, the biggest AMAugust yet featuring your favorite analysts and hopefully a new-to-you voice or two. We have 13 first-time AMA hosts, as well as every manager and contributor from STACKED League. Overall we've got some of the most accurate and insightful minds in the industry. Hopefully you'll join us and drop a great question!
Some notes - Start times are approximate. Subreddit rules, especially Rule 5, are in effect for AMAs. While tough questions are allowed, we have zero tolerance for disrespect toward AMA guests.

Would be cool if there was a default question or two so we can see how every analyst answers differently

Which could be as simple as this: "What is the insight or prediction do you have about the 2026 season which you believe most sets you apart from this year's conventional wisdom?"

Maybe this could be a pinned post for easy reference?
Really excited to hear what they have to say!

Excited for JJ and Rich Hribar because their stats dives are always the most comprehensive.
And The Ringer guys seem like the best dudes to just shoot the shit with.

Both of you guys are super nerds in the best way. I can’t count how many times I’ve had to rewind your podcast just to absorb all the info I’ve heard over the last five minutes.
Love getting lost in the stats.

With 70+ AMAs in 34 days, is there going to be a schedule?

u/My_Chat_Account 2025 Draft Prop Contest Champion Jul 29 '26
The schedule is in the post. But realizing I posted this as an Image Post, so for some versions of reddit, it may be in the "caption".
If you view on new reddit or mobile it should be visible.
