This NFL season, The Athletic is launching its first fantasy football Discord server. Join today — free! — and get direct access to our fantasy analysts and contributors in the run-up to your draft and throughout the 2025 campaign.
Join The Athletic fantasy football Discord server
This server is part of an ongoing, evolving experiment to see how The Athletic’s fantasy staff and contributors can engage with our users. If you have any questions about how to best use the server or suggestions to improve it, please submit them in the comments below or by joining the server and using the Suggestions channel.
A few things to keep in mind when you join:
The Athletic’s fantasy staff is active in the server, but we also need time to research, create and publish the content that comprises our regular jobs. We will make periodic passes through the server to answer questions and share insights, but we will not be in there 24/7. If you have a question that has not been answered immediately, please just be patient or submit it during one of our regularly scheduled chats.

Throughout each week, we will hold hour-long Q&As with Jake Ciely, Brandon Funston and a host of very familiar contributors from the fantasy football community. On Sundays, Ciely and Jay Felicio will kick off a live gameday chat that will carry through the 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. games with the rest of The Athletic’s fantasy team. Contributor KC Joyner will also live chat during Monday, Thursday and Sunday night games.
Though it might change over the course of the season, the weekly schedule is as follows:
Monday
Jay Felicio (noon-1 p.m. ET)
KC Joyner Live MNF Chat (8-11 p.m. ET)
Tuesday
Jess Bryant and Brandon Funston (4 p.m. ET)
Wednesday
Mike Hume (1-2 p.m. ET)
Thursday
Jake Ciely (10-11 a.m. ET)
Brad Evans (1-2 p.m. ET)

Sunday
Jake Ciely and Jay Felicio (11-1 p.m. ET)
Jess Bryant, Brandon Funston and Mike Hume (1-7 p.m. ET)
KC Joyner SNF Chat (7-11 p.m. ET)
(You can find the schedule on the Events tab in the top left corner of the server. )
Related to the multiple well-known names above, we are not a hive mind. We all have different thoughts and opinions on fantasy topics, so if two people differ on advice offered, this is a feature, not a bug. Ultimately, your roster decisions are yours to make; we’re just here to lend some perspective and insight.
Most importantly, should you join our community, please be civil in all discussions. You can find our Rules and Regulations in the server, but they are also listed below for good measure. We reserve the right to ban violators from the server, but we’re really hoping we don’t have to do that.
Rules and Regulations
- No jerks allowed, and we mean it. This is a hub for fantasy nerds, newcomers, everyone in between and The Athletic’s staff to come together and build a community rooted in respect. Keep in mind that comments should be constructive, instructive, or funny (but respectful, funny, not mean-spirited). This applies to all aspects of the server. If someone is suspicious or crosses the line, the user will be contacted by an admin.
- The Athletic’s fantasy community is inclusive and welcomes people from any and all walks of life. There will be no tolerance for sexism, racism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, hate speech, or harassment on the channels or through DMs, and those engaging in it will be banned.
- Discord’s rules and Terms of Service (https://discord.com/terms) also apply here.
- It’s OK to joke around with one another, but keep it good-natured. If you’re here, you probably know Jake Ciely, who loves a good laugh and innocent banter. But trolling with animosity isn’t tolerated. Who determines the difference? Jake Ciely, Brandon Funston and authorized admins and moderators.
- Spamming will not be tolerated, at all.
- Any suggestions, ideas, or comments should be posted in the suggestions channel.
- The owners and admins of this Discord reserve the right to make judgment calls beyond what is explicitly stated in the rules in the interest of the community.

Skandál, který v Konferenční lize rozzuřil i polského prezidenta, bude mít dohru
Komise vede z podobného důvodu disciplinární řízení také s izraelským klubem. Příznivci Haify měli na stadionu banner s nápisem „Vrazi od roku 1939“, odkazující na holokaust v době druhé světové války. V tomto případě, který vyvolal i ostrou reakci polského prezidenta Karola Nawrockého, ještě UEFA verdikt nevynesla.„Skandální transparent, který odhalili fanoušci Maccabi Haifa, zneucťuje památku polských obětí druhé světové války včetně tří milionů Židů. Tuto stupiditu nelze omluvit žádnými slovy,“ napsal po zápase na sociální síti X polský prezident Nawrocki. Transparent odsoudilo rovněž izraelské velvyslanectví ve Varšavě.Čenstochová musí navíc zaplatit 30.000 eur (736.000 korun) za užití pyrotechniky v odvetě, která se z bezpečnostních důvodů uskutečnila v Debrecínu.

How Como 1907 are chasing Wrexham-esque Hollywood dreams with glamour and goals
Como were one of the surprises of the last Serie A season when they finished 10th, but this season things are much different. After spending over $100 million in the summer transfer window, bringing in players with experience and young talents that will play under Cesc Fabregas, Como have to be considered at least as a contender for one of the European spots for the new 2025-26 Serie A season that will kick off this weekend in Italy. Watch Serie A all season long on Paramount+.The Italian side, owned by one of the richest ownership in world soccer, have big ambitions for the future and started building the team with the idea of making it one of the most attractive around, not only for the players or managers to work there, but also for the fans and millions of tourists that […]

ACC expert picks 2025: Most overrated and underrated teams, projected order of finish, bold predictions
The first season of a 17-team ACC produced multiple bids to the College Football Playoff in 2024 and an apparent return of Clemson as the team to beat in the conference. It sets the stage for an action-packed season in 2025, as Dabo Swinney's program looks to entrench its position in the league and challenge themselves to be a national-title contender again.Syracuse took down Miami on the final week of the regular season to propel Clemson into the ACC Championship Game, where a walk-off field goal vs. SMU handed the Tigers their eighth conference title since 2015. The runner-up Mustangs still made the College Football Playoff as an at-large team, solidifying one of the most impressive conference debuts we've seen in the modern era. After going 8-0 in ACC play, SMU has cemented itself as a top-tier program in the […]
