Kacey Kasem - RotoBaller

283 articles

Kacey Kasem's first memories start with football. Born and raised in the Dallas area, sports have always been a passion. A lifelong Dallas Cowboys fan, Kacey grew up watching the '90s glory years (a gift that made up for the heartbreak since). Tony Romo remains her favorite player, and she'll defend the man forever. She's been obsessed with fantasy football since 2011, when she joined her first league (and won). Since 2018, her fantasy football content has been featured at Fantasy Six Pack, Optimus Fantasy, Fighting Chance Fantasy, and The Fantasy Footballers. RotoBaller became her home in 2024. As a fantasy football analyst, Kacey enjoys breaking down draft strategies, ranking kickers each week, and finding deep waiver adds. She is fascinated by the psychology of fantasy leagues (reading other managers and finding ways to get an edge). Her focus is mainly on redraft, but she's been playing dynasty since 2018. Kacey hosts Get Real with Kacey Kasem, a podcast that takes a look behind the scenes of the fantasy football industry. The show is a three-time FSWA finalist for Best Fantasy Sports Podcast. Additionally, Kacey speaks at the Fantasy Football Expo as part of the Women in Fantasy Football panel. She also participates in the Queen’s Classic Draft and organizes the Dallas Scott Fish Bowl Live Draft.

Backup Tight Ends To Buy In Dynasty Fantasy Football Leagues

Any time a starting tight end goes down, their backup's stock immediately rises. Maybe you were like me last season, jumping to pick up Grant Calcaterra for the wrong game. I could have had him on my roster for free if I had grabbed him before Dallas Goedert got hurt. It is a tight end […]

Sam LaPorta - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Tight End Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Fantasy Football Playoffs - Week 16 (2024)

When it comes to fantasy football, tight ends are one of the hardest positions to nail down. They are unpredictable, often becoming a top-10 TE for the week with a single touchdown catch.

Xavier Worthy, Devaughn Vele, Xavier Legette: Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 15

The fantasy playoffs are here, and the stakes could not be higher. Lineup decisions are like chess—every move counts and the wrong one could leave you out in the cold. I don't know how to play chess, but you get what I mean. Wide receivers can swing matchups with big plays or sink them with […]

Should I Bench James Cook? Fantasy Football Outlook for Week 15

As the fantasy playoffs heat up, James Cook managers may question his reliability against the Detroit Lions' stout run defense this week.
