Ellis Johnson - RotoBaller

206 articles

My name is Ellis Bryn Johnson and I am a Canadian fantasy football writer. I have been writing published fantasy articles for six years, including the RotoBaller Thursday Night previews, The Pie Shop, and weekly player prop articles. In Week 2 of the 2024 season, I was #1 most accurate ranker overall, as well as #1 for both quarterbacks and wide receivers. In my second life, I have a Kinesiology degree from the University of British Columbia Graduate, and a Master's of Science from the University of Calgary. I wrote my thesis on the intersection of masculinity and inclusion within Canadian sport. I aim to apply this perspective to deliver entertaining and accurate football analysis as I grow as a writer. Also, I'm a Bengals fan. #WhoDeyNation Twitter @YoitsEllis_FF and Instagram @FiresideFantasy_FFL

Week 12 NFL DFS Prop Picks - Over/Under Prop Picks for Sleeper.com

Happy Thanksgiving to all my American friends. The NFL decided to turn itself on its head last week. With stars going down to injury and plenty of ridiculous upsets, this league is harder than ever to predict. I released three Thursday articles with prop selections for each game. All in all, we went 2-2 in […]

NFL Touchdown Predictions for Week 10: The Fantasy Football Pie Shop (2023)

The Pie Shop is back in business. Here we predict players to score a touchdown this week. Last week, was not our best week, finishing with only one correct lock pick. So far the real success we’ve had has been our locks. As a result, we are switching up the format again. For those of […]


Pushing Back the Brotherly Shove - Can It Be Stopped?

It’s Week 10 of the NFL season and one play has taken the league by storm. No, it’s not getting Tyreek Hill in motion so he can torch defenders. Instead, it’s the big boys in the trenches getting to work. Of course, I am talking about the “tush push” (or brotherly shove or whatever you […]


Chuba Hubbard - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Sleeper DFS Prop Picks For Week 9 Early Slate

It’s Halloween week and I have a treat for spooky season. This season, there have been a few costumes deceiving fantasy players.

After having no teams on their bye in Week 8, we have three great offenses taking their seasonal breather. I’ll let you guess the three great offenses, with the Lions, Jaguars, 49ers, and Broncos on bye. Last week, was not our best week, finishing with only one correct lock pick. For those of you who […]


Will Levis - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Sleeper Thursday Night DFS Prop Picks For Week 9

This Thursday, we have two teams that both appear to have surprising records. With Will Levis now commanding the Titans, we'll find out if his four touchdowns were just a flash in the pan. As for the Steelers, we still don't know if it will be Kenny Pickett or Mitch Trubisky on Thursday. Last week, […]

Sleeper NFL DFS Prop Picks For Week 8

We are back with my four favorite prop picks from Sleeper for the early slate of games. For the second week in a row, we finished 3-1. The one “loss” was Brett Maher who had the opportunities but failed to convert, ultimately getting cut from the team the day after. Although that hurt, we’re looking […]


AJ Brown - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

The Fantasy Football Pie Shop, Week 8 (2023)

It’s not PSL season (Pumpkin Spice Latte) it’s Pie season! This week there are plenty of pies to choose from with no teams on bye. Last week, we went 2-0 on locks, 0-2 on solid picks, and 0-2 on our long shots. For those of you who are new, welcome to the Pie Shop. I […]

The Pie Shop is back in business baby. That’s right, after switching up the format, we hit two of our six calls. Even better, these calls were distributed well going 1-1 on locks, 1-1 on solid picks, and 0-2 on our long shots. For those of you who are new, welcome to the Pie Shop. […]


C.J. Stroud - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Sleeper.com NFL DFS Prop Picks - Over/Under Props for Week 5 Early Slate

We are back with prop picks from Sleeper. On Thursday night football and last week, we held our 50% hit rate, making our total record through two weeks 6-6. In light of the MLB playoffs, if we can manage to hit above 500 I’d be very happy. I’m hoping we can find some gems in […]

The Fantasy Football Pie Shop, Week 5 (2023)

All successful businesses need to constantly reflect on how they can make their company better. Thankfully, Pie Shops are not different.

Javonte Williams - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS and Betting Picks

The Fantasy Football Pie Shop, Week 4 (2023)

You win some, you lose some, and you can’t win them all. That’s the mentality I have heading into a redemption week for the Pie Shop. Last week, Dameon Pierce was our only correct selection. Ironically, he was probably the player I was least confident in. However, with Josh Jacobs, Alexander Mattison, and A.J. Brown […]
