The Margins is a dynasty fantasy football podcast that borrows from physics, mathematics, and ecology to build theory-driven strategy. Not who to start — how to rethink roster construction, player valuation, and finding edges others miss. Dynasty rewards patience, systems thinking, and the willingness to look where others aren't. Hosted by @FFTommyB.
