Baller Move: Bench in standard leagues, mid-end FLEX in deeper leagues Positional Value: WR4 Analysis: One of the big mysteries in fantasy football this offseason was how the Miami Dolphins’ offense would look in 2026. Miami signed quarterback Malik Willis to a big contract in free agency, but his pass-catching group was filled with unproven […]

The 2026 NFL season is finally here, and we saw some memorable performances in Week 1. Whether it was Caleb Williams showing that he may have taken another step as a player in 2026, finishing as the QB1 through Sunday’s games (37.2 points), or Lamar Jackson looking like he was in vintage form with a […]

RotoBaller has plenty of articles to help fantasy managers in all league formats, but this one will cover deep-league waiver-wire targets […]

One of the biggest offseason moves before the 2026 regular season happened when the Philadelphia Eagles finally traded away disgruntled receiver A.J. Brown.  Fantasy managers everywhere hoped a change of scenery and a quarterback upgrade would get Brown back to form as an elite fantasy wide receiver. Unfortunately, Brown lasted just 31 snaps before suffering […]

The biggest surprise of the early fantasy season happened before games kicked off in Week 1, when it was announced that Brock Bowers had undergone a knee procedure that would sideline him for the Raiders’ first game. For fantasy managers, it was an unfortunate déjà vu of the 2025 season, when Bowers suffered a knee […]

Baller Move: Start in 12-team leagues Positional Value: High-end RB3 Analysis: The Seattle Seahawks elected to let Super Bowl MVP running back Kenneth Walker III leave in free agency this offseason. It was a curious decision, given that his running mate, Zach Charbonnet, tore his ACL during the team’s playoff run and was expected to […]

One of the more ambiguous backfields heading into the 2026 season is the Denver Broncos. Last season, healthy J.K. Dobbins dominated the backfield in stretches, but an injury allowed RJ Harvey to show his fantasy upside. Things didn’t get easier this offseason after the Broncos elected to re-sign Dobbins and draft a rookie (Jonah Coleman) […]

So much time and energy is spent breaking down the early rounds of fantasy football drafts and dissecting which players are good targets and fades. In a lot of ways, that is fair, since nailing your early round picks can unlock your fantasy team's ceiling. That is especially true at the running back position in […]

Hitting on rookie picks in redraft leagues is a quick way to elevate the ceiling of your fantasy roster. That advantage can manifest in a lot of different ways. Sometimes it requires taking a highly drafted rookie who is a starter in Week 1 and is consistently earning snaps. Other times, it is identifying a […]

Most of the pre-draft process focused on the lack of talent in the 2026 draft class compared to other years. However, one player viewed as a top talent was Arizona State wide receiver Jordyn Tyson. That isn’t to say that Tyson was a clean prospect. The talent was clear, but a lengthy injury history led […]

The success of the running back position in fantasy in 2025 is having a direct impact on fantasy football ADP heading into 2026. More and more running backs are being pushed up, forcing fantasy managers to get comfortable making stances on ambiguous or uncertain backfields. One backfield that is undecided heading into 2026 is the […]

The resurgence of running backs in fantasy football was clear in 2025 and will have a major impact on fantasy football managers in 2026. However, NFL teams have also gotten better (and smarter) at splitting their backfields to keep players fresh and maximize efficiency. Identifying and attacking those edges is a way for fantasy managers […]

For many years, the expectation among fantasy managers and football fans was that players would have a significant jump in production in their third season. However, there have been so many rookies who have had fantasy-relevant seasons in recent years that our expectations have shifted. That shift in perspective has forced younger players up in […]

Over the last few seasons, we have seen rookies enter the NFL and make an immediate impact for fantasy football. The 2025 class was no exception. That group provided fantasy managers with a top-15 quarterback (Jaxson Dart), six top-30 running backs (Cam Skattebo, Omarion Hampton, Ashton Jeanty, Quinshon Judkins, TreVeyon Henderson, and RJ Harvey), a […]

It won’t be long until NFL teams are kicking off their training camps heading into the 2026 NFL season. That means fantasy drafts are just around the corner.

The 2026 offseason keeps plugging along. OTAs are officially underway, and teams are getting a close look at their new talent.

The regular season is still several months away, but fantasy drafts have already started in dynasty and best-ball formats. It is never too early to understand ADP movement and identify value […]

It is common knowledge that the 2026 NFL Draft class is not the best for fantasy. The class lacked high-end talent at quarterback, wide receiver, and tight end while providing virtually no depth at running back. That said, plenty of prospects landed in fantasy-friendly situations, which could boost their appeal in fantasy football. Below are […]

The 2026 NFL Draft class lacks elite talent capable of making an impact at the NFL level. That is true of all positions, but even more so in fantasy circles. Unfortunately, a lack of high-end talent doesn’t mean that we can pass on our rookie drafts in dynasty formats. That is especially true for fantasy […]

Now that the Super Bowl is over, we can fully shift our attention to the 2026 offseason. Things move quickly in the NFL when it comes to the offseason. Major showcase events like the Senior Bowl have already taken place, and the NFL Combine is two weeks away. Some dynasty managers are already preparing for […]

There have been numerous significant injuries during the 2025 NFL season that have had an impact on fantasy football.

2025 has been a brutal season for injuries across fantasy football. One highly drafted player who has missed significant time this summer is New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson. When healthy, Wilson gave fantasy managers a top-10 wide receiver season thanks to his high-volume role in the Jets’ offense. Unfortunately, a knee injury has […]
