6 Fantasy Football Outlooks for Second-Year Wide Receivers: Brian Thomas Jr., Malik Nabers, Ladd McConkey, Marvin Harrison Jr., and more

Last year's wide receiver class was touted as one of the best in the history of NFL drafts. For three receivers -- Malik Nabers, Brian Thomas Jr., and Ladd McConkey -- it lived up to the billing. But the depth wasn't quite what it was claimed to be, as we saw in Year 1. Instead, […]

Top 24 Fantasy Football Running Backs: Player Outlooks, Rankings and Tiers (2025)

The running back position is difficult to predict year over year. We often see backs have explosive breakouts, only to fade into obscurity just a few seasons later. Additionally, there's a long history of huge busts at the position, for a variety of reasons. Injuries, changes in offensive schemes, and unsustainable production early in players' […]

When Will Dak Prescott, Brandon Aiyuk, Chris Godwin Return for Fantasy Football? NFL Offeason Injury Updates

As much as it absolutely stinks to see, injuries are just a part of life for football players. It's a sport where many of the world's best athletes are crashing into each other and falling to the ground on top of each other at ridiculously high speeds. Season-ending injuries can be brutal for everyone involved. […]

Fantasy Football Zero RB Strategy - 4 Running Back Sleepers to Target and Draft (2025)

Zero-RB was possibly the worst strategy you could have followed in fantasy football drafts last season. If you missed out on a few key players, like Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown, you likely would have regretted your choices greatly. This is primarily due to the rash of injuries that struck many of the league's […]

Will Travis Etienne be Traded? Top Landing Spots and Fantasy Football Player Outlook

It doesn't take long for things to change drastically in the NFL. Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. rushed for 1,125 yards and five touchdowns in 2022, following that with a 1,008-yard, 11 rush TD season, adding 478 receiving yards and a receiving score to those totals. But the cracks were already showing -- […]

Tyreek Hill Trade Proposal, Rumors, and Top Landing Spots - Fantasy Football Player Outlook (2025)

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill easily had the most disappointing season of his career in 2024, at least relative to expectations. After two league-winning seasons in a row, he failed to come close to his projections last season, finishing as the overall WR18. What was worse were his matchup-losing weeks. 6.6, 7.0, 8.2, 2.3, […]

Top 24 Quarterback Rankings and Tiers for 2025 Fantasy Football

A lot of the players on a list of the top 24 quarterback rankings wouldn't surprise most people. Neither would the tiers they fit into. With QB being the most stable position in the NFL in the sense that elite quarterbacks tend to have the longest careers of any non-special team player, this isn't much […]

Second-Year Fantasy Football Regression Candidates: Potential Sophomore Fallers

No one likes to hear that one of their favorite rookies, who just had a nice season to start their career, could be set to regress and put up disappointing (relatively) numbers in their second season. But the fact is that it happens all the time, no matter how much dynasty fantasy football bagholders want […]

Nick Chubb Top Free-Agent Landing Spots

Former Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb, who returned from a serious knee injury that ended his 2023 season just two games in, was let go by his team at the end of the 2024 season. Considering he still hasn't signed with a team, it could be some time before he finds a new home. […]

Dynasty Fantasy Football QB Trade Targets and Avoids: 4 Quarterbacks to Buy or Sell (2025)

Quarterbacks happen to (usually) be the longest-lasting players in dynasty fantasy football, so there are multiple windows in which it makes sense to trade some away and buy others. The position, like others, is sensitive to injury luck to players around it and other factors, like coaching. As such, there are QBs you should dump […]

Should I Draft Tyler Warren or Colston Loveland? 2025 Dynasty Rookie Draft Analysis

According to many analysts, the consensus No. 1 tight end prospect in the 2025 NFL Draft class was former Penn State TE Tyler Warren, whom the Indianapolis Colts drafted. He was often mocked as being a top-6 selected player. That didn't come to pass. Instead, former Michigan tight end Colston Loveland, who landed with the Chicago Bears […]

3 Fantasy Football Rookies to Draft in Dynasty Leagues: Underrated Players to Target

In previous articles, I've named rookies such as Chicago Bears tight end Colston Loveland, New England Patriots wide receiver Kyle Williams, and Denver Broncos running back RJ Harvey as underrated rookies with massive upside. But thanks to the 2025 NFL Draft, I can't do that with those guys anymore. This is because draft capital causes […]

Brashard Smith, Jaxson Dart, DJ Giddens - Dynasty Fantasy Football Rookie Draft Sleepers

With the 2025 NFL Draft well behind us, and most of the highest-sought-after rookies already well known and nested in their spots in fantasy football ADP rankings, many fantasy managers' attentions have shifted more towards sleepers at each position. Finding real sleepers who break out at some point in their first two seasons, despite having […]

Should I Draft Dillon Gabriel or Shedeur Sanders? 2025 Dynasty Rookie Draft Analysis

The Cleveland Browns now have the most interesting bad quarterback room in the NFL. After signing both QBs Joe Flacco and Kenny Pickett to join their usual starter, Deshaun Watson, they drafted both Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders in the 2025 NFL Draft. It was an interesting move, and it seems to signify that they […]

Fantasy Football Best Ball Wide Receiver Rankings: Top 10 WRs and Player Analysis (2025)

Many in the fantasy football community are familiar with best ball formats.

De'Von Achane, Ashton Jeanty, Christian McCaffrey - Who Should I Draft in 2025 Fantasy Football?

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane, Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty, and San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey are three polarizing RBs who are likely giving fantasy managers plenty of pause ahead of the 2025 NFL season. There's no doubt that all three are projected to have good seasons this year, but […]

Is Kareem Hunt, Elijah Mitchell, or Brashard Smith the RB2 for the Chiefs? Fantasy Football Depth Charts

The Kansas City Chiefs' running back situation is interesting to monitor this offseason. During the 2023 season and for the first few games of 2024, it looked like this was 100 percent Isiah Pacheco's backfield. He dominated touches and was the undisputed workhorse. However, his broken fibula changed things after just a few games last […]

Is Tahj Brooks, Samaje Perine, or Zack Moss the RB2 for the Bengals? Fantasy Football Depth Charts

The Cincinnati Bengals signed running back Zack Moss ahead of the 2024 NFL season. Then, after last year, they signed RB Samaje Perine and later drafted tailback Tahj Brooks in the sixth round of the 2025 NFL Draft. Thus, they currently have four running backs on their roster. After last season, it's apparent that RB […]

Should I Draft RJ Harvey or Kaleb Johnson? 2025 Dynasty Fantasy Football Rookie Draft Analysis

The Denver Broncos drafted former UCF running back RJ Harvey in the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft. Later, in the third round, the Pittsburgh Steelers drafted former Iowa running back Kaleb Johnson. Given where these guys were drafted, and the seemingly open backfields they join, both should have significant roles in Year 1. […]

Fantasy Football Outlooks For Rookie Tight Ends: Colston Loveland, Tyler Warren, Mason Taylor, Terrance Ferguson, Elijah Arroyo, Harold Fannin

The rookie tight-end class from the 2025 NFL Draft was one of the more stacked classes at its position in recent memory. There was one prospect widely considered to be a blue-chip player, and he wasn't even the first TE taken in the draft. That was surprising to some, but not to all. Although tight […]

2025 NFL Schedule Winners and Losers

What was once an event with little fanfare is still an event with little fanfare. But thanks to the constant obsession of corporations with increasing their profits and squeezing revenue out of everything possible, now we have the schedule release becoming some big event. We're at the peak of boredom in the offseason, at the […]

Dynasty Superflex Startup Mock Draft for Fantasy Football: Four Rounds with Picks and Analysis

Superflex leagues have been gaining popularity in dynasty fantasy football circles in recent years. The added challenge of this format, which makes the quarterback position both scarce and far more important, is an attractive feature that many of football's biggest fans (and nerds) have readily flocked to. In superflex leagues, there is an additional "superflex" […]

Quarterback Fantasy Football Rankings for Best Ball

Best ball is a fantasy football format in which you draft a full roster of players, and each week, only the players with the most points scored are included in your team's scores. You don't have to worry about who you start and who you bench, as your lineup will automatically be optimized. Of course, […]

Should I Draft Kyle Williams or Jack Bech? 2025 Dynasty Rookie Draft Analysis

The 2025 NFL Draft has now come and gone. Those of us who like dynasty fantasy football, and especially those of us die-hards (or people who work in the industry) (don't worry, I followed it all year before I started working for RotoBaller), have already spent plenty of time pontificating who to select in rookie […]

Tyler Shough, Chris Olave, Rashid Shaheed Fantasy Football Outlooks: Post-Derek Carr Retirement

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr announced his retirement on May 10, in a surprise move (well, somewhat) that will have many fantasy football implications moving forward. Carr's tenure with the Saints was rocky, marked mainly by inconsistency and, obviously, injury issues. The Saints drafted quarterback Tyler Shough, a rookie from Louisville, as injury insurance […]

2025 NFL Schedule Release - Strength of Schedule Rankings for All 32 Teams

The 2025 NFL Schedule hasn't quite released yet, but we already know all the teams each team will be facing, so it's worth looking into roughly how difficult each team's path through the regular season will be. While teams don't stay the same year over year, there are quite a few that are in the […]

Best Ball Tight End Rankings: Top 10 Fantasy Football TEs and Analysis

In best ball formats, unlike other fantasy football league setups, you never have to hope the players you put in your starting lineups outscore those on your bench, and won't be annoyed when they don't. This is because, in this format, you don't really have a lineup to set. Instead, you'll always get the maximum […]

Rookie Fantasy Football Outlooks For Second-Round Wide Receivers - Luther Burden, Tre Harris, Jayden Higgins

The first 10 picks of the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft saw the consensus two best wide receivers in this year's rookie class -- Travis Hunter and Tetairoa McMillan -- selected at picks No. 2 and No. 8, respectively.
