EP 138: Evan Silva, Fantasy Football Writer/Analyst

On this episode of the Moran-Alytics Podcast presented by Pulse Celluar, Patrick Moran has an extended chat with longtime fantasy football writer & analyst Evan Silva on a variety of topics.

Silva discusses his early life, ranging from northern Virginia to St. Louis before ultimately going to college at the University of Marquette in Wisconsin and living in Chicago today. He still remembers when he first caught the fantasy football bug and how it’s a developed passion that ultimately led to Rotoworld, where he’d work for more a dozen years.

Recently Silva co-founded a new subscription-based site called Establish the Run and he reveals why he felt it was time to leave Rotoworld and what motivated him to tackle this new venture.

Of course, the two also spend considerable time talking fantasy football, both from a Buffalo Bills and NFL perspective. Moran runs down all the skill position players on the Bills and Silva offers fantasy analysis for each, landing on three players he considers the most draft worthy. They then move to the NFL with Moran throwing out names in packs of three with Silva ranking while also throwing out some sleepers to target and potential fantasy flops to avoid early.

After that Moran reads off some Bills fans bold predictions for training camp, including takes on Lesean McCoy as well the battle for wide receiver roster spots before Moran adds a prediction of his own in regards to Buffalo’s starting left tackle.
