Week 10 NFL Recap: Injuries, Breakout Performers & Game by Game Analysis

  The Big Boys Delivered (Except Running Backs) With the exception of a few outliers, Week 10 of the NFL season saw a lot of fantasy superstars living up to their expectations.

Week 9 NFL Recap: Injuries, Breakout Performers & Game by Game Analysis

  We're Officially Halfway Through the NFL Season Week 8's NFL slate had some absurd fantasy performances and real-life outcomes, followed up by an equally crazy Week 9.

The Plot Thickened in Week 8 Week 8 of the NFL season had some perplexing real-life outcomes that resulted in insane fantasy performances.

Week 7 NFL Recap: Injuries, Breakout Performers & Game by Game Analysis

The Injury Carnage Returns For Week 7 If Week 7 of the 2014 NFL season does not convince you that the classic fantasy strategy of drafting two running backs with your first two picks is as over as The Sopranos (Forgetting Sarah Marshall reference, thank you) then I don’t know what will. Sure you might […]

Week 6 NFL Recap: Injuries, Breakout Performers & Game by Game Analysis

  A Fantasy Week To Remember (Or Not) Don’t panic! Week 6 saw some fairly unusual scoring leaders when it was all said it done, some more surprising than others.  It’s weeks like this that will leave plenty of fantasy owners scratching their heads as to why certain star players didn’t show up while many […]

Week 5 NFL Recap & Week 6 Fantasy Football Prep

Can we just take a minute to appreciate how amazing sports are? I know I’m not alone in stating that sometimes I get so caught up in worrying about fantasy lineups and performances that I forget to just step back and enjoy how incredible sports can be. Between the baseball playoffs, the mass hysteria that […]

Week 4 NFL Recap & Week 5 Fantasy Football Prep

With Week 4 in the books, we are a quarter of the way through this season, which means that you should know what you have on your fantasy team by now. Yes, there were six teams on bye, so not everyone has played four games just yet, but by now roles are starting to shake […]

Week 3 NFL Recap & Week 4 Fantasy Football Prep

We’re a week removed from one of the most absurd weekends of injuries in recent fantasy memory, yet time hasn't actually netted us much pertinent information. Jamaal Charles went from having a surefire lengthy injury to practicing and almost playing only to end up sitting out. Roddy White was expected to play all week leading up to […]

Week 2 NFL Recap & Week 3 Fantasy Football Prep

Allow me to sum up all of Week Two in one word: Ouch. Injuries ran rampant all throughout the league this week with some being more serious than others. The good news is that none are to believed season ending despite several players expected to miss some time. Hopefully you managed to benefit from some […]

Week 1 NFL Recap & Week 2 Fantasy Football Prep

Alas. the NFL season is finally underway, and Week One had no shortage of excitement. There were some highly entertaining finishes (particularly in Pittsburgh and Atlanta), surprising stat lines, upsets, and unfortunately, injuries. It’s that last little tidbit that is the most concerning for fantasy owners, but let’s start somewhere a little more positive. This […]

Tight Ends To Draft Late: TE Sleepers & Draft Values

All Tight Ends Are The Same, But Different Tight end has become one of the more perplexing positions in all of fantasy football due to the fact that there are clear tiers at the position and also a strange level of sameness after a certain point. The key to differentiating between players who fall into that […]

Fantasy Football Stock Rising / Falling After Preseason Week 4

With just days remaining before the start of the regular season, position battles and injury concerns are wrapping up by the minute.

We have risers/fallers, ADP sleepers emerging, […]

Quarterbacks To Draft Late: QB Sleepers & Draft Values

  Quarterback Sleepers for Shallower Leagues (1 QB) Today’s NFL is more pass-happy than it has ever been and that doesn’t appear to be changing any time soon. Fortunately for fantasy owners, that means there are a plethora of quarterback options that extend beyond the typical 10-team format.  It’s been said throughout the summer’s fantasy […]

Fantasy Football Stock Rising / Falling After Preseason Week 3

Amazingly, we are three preseason games in yet we have been graced by a relatively injury-free August. There have been some bumps and bruises along the way but nothing that will require anyone to miss an extended period of time. Hopefully I didn’t just jinx the entire league and everyone comes out of the last […]

Tennessee Titans: 2014 Fantasy Football Analysis & Team Outlook

  Tennessee Titans Offseason Changes Offseason Acquisitions – RB Dexter McCluster No Longer on the Roster – RB Chris Johnson, WR Kenny Britt Coaching Changes – New Head Coach Ken Wisenhunt, New Offensive Coordinator Jason Michael Sankey, Sankey, Sankey.

2014 Fantasy Football Sleepers: Wide Receiver (WR) Draft Values

With such a high emphasis on the passing game in today’s NFL, you can pretty much find a potential fantasy sleeper on nearly every NFL roster. The key is to choose which ones have the highest chance of succeeding based on their talent, role, and quality of offense, and also how high their ADPs are. […]

Overvalued Wide Receivers for 2014 Fantasy Football Drafts

Identifying the risers/fallers, worthwhile rookies, sleepers and potential busts are all key components for your draft strategy. Evaluating a player’s average draft position (ADP) involves comparing that player to the other options being selected around him. The players listed below aren’t guys I would suggest avoiding altogether necessarily; rather, I'd pass on them where they […]

Houston Texans: 2014 Fantasy Football Analysis & Team Outlook

The Houston Texans were undoubtedly one of the most disappointing teams during the 2013 season. The offense completely fell apart due to horrific play out of starting quarterback Matt Schaub and a season ending injury to star running back Arian Foster. Despite those setbacks, wide receiver Andre Johnson still managed to put together a decent […]

Julian Edelman (WR, NE) - Fantasy Football Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target ~ 55 (Current ADP: 67, WR: 25) ANALYSIS: If you were to ask any average fantasy owner to name you three offensive players on the  New England Patriots it's conceivable Julian Edelman wouldn't even make that list. Chances are they would name Tom Brady, Rob Gronkowski and one of the random running backs […]

RotoBaller's Expert Fantasy Football Mock Draft

Greg Olsen (TE, CAR) - Fantasy Football Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target ~ 65 (Current ADP: 75, TE: 7) ANALYSIS: It's no secret that Cam Newton's weapons have gone through a complete overhaul this offseason yet the one mainstay is tight end Greg Olsen. Looking at last year's numbers, Olsen was actually tied with Steve Smith for most targets on the Panthers with 109. With […]

Andre Ellington (RB, ARI) - Fantasy Football Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target ~ 30 (Current ADP: 49, RB: 20) ANALYSIS: Although not a sleeper in the traditional sense, Andre Ellington continues to be extremely undervalued in ESPN leagues where his ADP is 49. In Yahoo, CBS and FFC his ADP is closer to 30 which is about where it should be, but if you play in […]

Fantasy Football Stock Rising / Falling after Preseason Week 1

  News, Notes and Fantasy Football Analysis Week 1 of NFL Preseason Action Let’s face it: the main reason to be excited about preseason football isn’t simply that there are “games” on, but that the actual ones that matter are rapidly approaching.

Buffalo Bills: 2014 Fantasy Football Analysis & Team Outlook

If there’s one thing the Buffalo Bills do not shy away from on a consistent basis it’s the almighty fantasy hype machine. Seemingly every year someone on the Bills ends up getting overhyped to the point where someone is pretty much guaranteed to get burned by over drafting. Whether it’s running back C.J. Spiller, former […]

Indianapolis Colts: 2014 Fantasy Football Analysis & Team Outlook

The Indianapolis Colts are emerging as one of the young threats in the AFC due largely in part to the success of quarterback Andrew Luck. For a team that many believe are a lock to make the playoffs, it’s kind of strange that they’ve only produced one player who is a surefire fantasy star. That […]
